Though you may want to jump right into your college essay, you should know exactly what is asked of you before you even open up that blank Word Document. Carefully read the prompt and see what type of essay your teacher wants you to write, specific information to include, how many words are required, and how much research is required for the essay. Consult your rubric to know exactly what your teacher is expecting. Here are some things you should be very clear about before you begin:  Word count. If your essay only needs to be 500 words long, it will be very different from an essay that needs to be 2,000 words long since you may need to be more specific. Be aware of the word requirement and stick to it, or at least within 10% of it. You don't want to weary your teacher by writing an essay that is much longer than required, or much shorter than required. The amount and type of required research. Some classes will require you to write a paper that is heavily based on outside research you've done. Others will require you to use the course materials, like novels, or textbooks, for the basis of your paper, and to draw your own conclusions, though almost every good essay is based on solid research. If you have any questions, talk to your teacher well before the day the assignment is due to clarify any concerns you may have. There are many different types of essays you may have to write in college, and it's good to be aware of the variety of essays out there so you know what is expected of you. Here are the basic types of essays that you should master:   The persuasive/argumentative essay. This essay will ask you to persuade your readers to see your perspective on an issue. For example, an essay showing readers all the reasons why personal handguns should be banned will be a persuasive essay.  The analytical essay. This type of essay is most common in literature courses. This essay will ask you to read a work and to analyze the words, themes, characters, and meaning using your own ideas as well as other scholarly...

TL;DR in English: Have a crystal-clear understanding of the assignment. Master the different types of essays. Define your audience. Define your purpose. Manage your tone.

Leaky gut is a condition where tiny holes in your intestines allow toxins and bacteria to leak into your body, which can cause other medical conditions like wheezing, allergies, or asthma. These holes may be caused by genetics or your diet. Eat a healthy, high-fiber diet with fresh produce, lean protein, and complex carbs to help your gut. Avoid sugar, cut back on alcohol, and limit saturated fats to help protect your gut. It's best to eliminate processed foods from your diet altogether. If you identify any food triggers, eliminate them from your diet. Walking for 15-20 minutes after your meals may also help treat or prevent leaky gut. Exposing yourself to food allergens and environmental allergens can cause wheezing, and foods that produce mucus can make wheezing worse. Foods that produce mucus include dairy products, bananas, and sugar. If you are not quite certain which foods, pollens, and animal dander (if any) you’re allergic to, ask your doctor to perform an allergy test. Treat seasonal allergies that cannot be avoided with over-the-counter antihistamines. Severe seasonal allergies might need prescription medication. Strong odors aren’t necessarily bad for you when your lungs are healthy, but if your airways are stressed, they may cause those airways to restrict further. Chemical odors, like paint and chemical cleaners, can be some of the biggest culprits, but you should also avoid things like perfumes and heavily scented soaps or shampoo. When inhaled, these potent smells can both cause and worsen wheezing.

TL;DR in English: Take care of your gut to treat or prevent leaky gut. Avoid potential allergens and other wheezing triggers. Stay away from potent smells that can constrict your airways.

As you read through Christian texts, you might notice a number of commonalities to Hindu readings. You might see that both religions emphasize love and surrender, for example. The idea that God is ever-present is another similarity. As you come upon these similarities, make note of them because they can help you weather the transition process. For example, Hindus often emphasize the idea of long-standing devotion to God, including the surrender of one’s body and mind. Christians often teach the same beliefs. Some Hindus choose not to consume meat and, if that was your choice, you can continue to do so as a Christian. There are many Christians who choose to lead a vegetarian lifestyle for personal, health, or religious reasons. You can decide to wear a cross around your neck. Or, you can continue to don the bindi, if you are a woman. If you are a man, you may want to untie the Hindu white thread around your torso, or leave it intact. These are also changes that you can make over time. As you go through the conversion process, you may want to ‘feel out’ your Hindu friends to see how they feel about your choices. If they are supportive, you may be able to open up to them about your struggles. If they are resistant, then you may need to get some distance from them and try to rebuild your relationships later. Depending on the religious restrictions where you live, you may need to contact a local government official to let them know about your conversion. If this is the case, you will generally have to attest that you made this decision out of free will and without being pressured. For example, in India many personal religious changes must be logged by a local oath commissioner. Understand any perils to your personal safety as a result of your decision to convert and take the proper safeguards. In some areas, Christian converts are targeted for violence. Try to determine if your conversion may have a larger impact on your ability to live safely in your current home. Depending on your local situation, if you are...

TL;DR in English: Recognize any Hindu-Christian similarities. Decide whether or not to stay vegetarian. Choose which, if any, religious symbols to wear. Try to stay in touch with your Hindu friends and family. Notify any local officials, as necessary. Be aware of the possibility for backlash.

Elmer’s glue works best, but any white “school” glue will do. Along with your glue, you’ll need a paintbrush and the nail polish of your choice. Also, you want a small paper plate or something else to pour your glue onto. Pour some glue onto your dish and dip your brush in it. Generously apply the glue around your nails, getting as close to the nail as possible. Paint the glue around the bottom, sides, and top of your nail. If you do happen to get it on your nails, simply use a paper towel to wipe it away before it dries. Go as wide as you deem necessary. If you’re typically a very messy painter, make a wide ring around your nail with glue. Examine your nails to make sure there isn’t any glue on your nails. If you’re sure there isn’t, give the glue 10-20 minutes to dry. When it has dried completely, you’ll see no more white around your nails because the glue turns clear when it dries. Be as messy as you wish around your nails. Don’t be afraid to get as close to the edge of your nails as possible; focus on painting your entire nail. The paint around your nails will land on the glue, which is exactly what you want. Don’t purposely make more of a mess than you normally would; you’ll just end up wasting nail polish. Give your nails sufficient time to dry. This takes anywhere from 2-15 minutes, depending on the polish that you chose. It is very important that you let your nails completely dry. Carefully begin peeling the glue off of your fingers. Do so slowly to be sure that you don’t pull off any polish from your nails along with the glue. Take notes on anywhere you could’ve been more careful with your glue so that you can focus on that area next time.

Apologize early and often; admit that you were wrong (if you were) and take responsibility.  Tell him that you were wrong and that you won’t do it (whatever it was) again. And then don’t do that thing again. Don’t use the sorry-not-really-sorry line of “I’m sorry you got so upset.” It shifts the responsibility onto him and makes it sound as if you’re not sorry for your actions, you just wish he wouldn’t get mad about it. If he responds with a--potentially justified--angry text, apologize again. Continue apologizing if he comes at you with more angry responses. Simply say something like, “I’m sorry--I was wrong.” Just apologizing or trying to explain that your intentions were good won’t work.  Saying you’re sorry isn’t enough--you need to show you recognize the negative consequences your actions had on him and that you sincerely regret it.  If he feels like you genuinely understand why your actions made him mad, he’s more likely to feel validated and begin forgiving you. Even if you don’t necessarily think his feelings or reaction is justified, apologize anyway. If you want him to like you again, you want him to see you understand how he’s feeling. Even if you say you’re sorry, it won’t be enough to make him like you again if you then start saying things that will escalate the situation.  Don’t, for example, say anything about thinking his reactions were irrational or unjustified. It will make him feel like you aren’t really sorry and don’t really understand the situation--and he’ll go back to being mad.  Don’t bring up things he’s done to upset you in the past. Turning the conversation into a tit-for-tat about who did what to who isn’t going to diffuse the situation. It will only make it drag on longer and make him less likely to forgive you. Asking for his input on what you can do shows that you’re listening to him and genuinely want to know what would make things better from his perspective. For example, you might say something like, “I know you had to wait 45 minutes for me and that it probably felt like I...

TL;DR in English: Apologize. Show that you understand the impact your actions had on him. Avoid escalating the situation. Ask what you can do to make it up to him. Make him smile. Let him know you’re thinking about him.

Every child is different, so tailor your activities to suit your child’s particular interests. Make these activities fun! Children tend to have tons of energy but minimal attention spans, so it’s important for the activities you choose to entertain them. Your child may struggle to filter out unnecessary information and focus only on the subject to be estimated. You can teach this skill with simple games. For example, you might put red and blue balls on the floor, then ask your child to guess how many red balls there are (ignoring the blue ones). You can have your child guess how many jelly beans are in a bowl, how many pennies are in a jar, or how many marbles are in a box. Emphasize the need for estimation, not counting or calculation. There are online games that help teach estimation as well. For example, your child can play “Guess It!” at http://www.theproblemsite.com/junior/estimation.asp, where Professor Puzzler will show various groups of colored dots, then take them away and ask for an estimation. This site will let you increase or decrease the amount of time the dots stay on the screen, too, letting you customize the game for your child. Explain to your child that when people estimate, they use words like “about,” “approximately,” or “more or less.” When you play guessing games, encourage your child to use these words and to construct sentences that reflect estimation. Remind your child that estimation is not about random guessing; it’s about making educated predictions. Instead of throwing out random numbers, he or she should use visual cues to get as close as possible. Repetition is key. Children need to practice these skills over and over again in order to master them. Vary the activities so that your child does not get bored, but don’t give up on teaching estimation. Children will be more interested and motivated if you offer a reward. If you play a guessing game with jelly beans, for example, you can give your child a few to eat when he or she makes a good estimate. If you use pennies, let your...

Instead of trying to shrink your pores, you could just try to cover them up using concealer, foundation and powder. This is an effective temporary solution which can help you to feel more confident about the appearance of your skin.  Choose a concealer and foundation than perfectly matches your skin tone, as this will help the make-up to appear more natural. Go for mattifying make-up if your skin tends to be oily and moisturizing make-up if your skin tends to be dry. Apply the make-up lightly and evenly using a sponge or brush. Don't cake it on, as this will simply draw more attention to the areas you are trying to conceal. Make sure to wash your brush or sponge frequently, to avoid a build-up of bacteria. Make sure to thoroughly remove make-up at night. Leaving it on will clog your pores, causing them to look worse. Applying a primer under your make-up is a great way to make your skin appear flawless.  A good primer (preferably a silicone-based one) will temporarily fill in your pores, without clogging them. This provides an even surface for your make-up, making your pores almost invisible. Blotting you skin with blotting papers or oil absorbing sheets will remove excess oil from the skin throughout the day, reducing the appearance of pores without over-drying your skin. You can find blotting papers at your local drug store or pharmacy, or online.

TL;DR in English: Wear make-up. Use a skin primer. Use blotting paper.

Go to the circuit breaker or fuse box and restore the power supply. Turn on the lights and the fan to make sure they are operational. You should also go outside while the fan is running to make sure air is flowing freely through the duct. Damp or greasy air that is not pulled through the duct may cause damage to your walls.

If your dog is suffering from any kind of neck pain, a collar may cause too much strain and discomfort on his neck and spine. A harness can be a useful alternative, as it spreads pressure over his chest and does not put any strain on your dog's neck. Avoid using a collar, and opt for unleashed, fenced-in yard time whenever possible instead of walking your dog on a leash. Heat therapy is a useful tool in relieving mild neck discomfort, especially in dogs with arthritis. Follow the directions bag's packaging and heat for the appropriate time. Then speak calmly to the dog, encourage him to lie down, and place the bag over his neck for a period of five to ten minutes at a time. If your dog is suffering from neck pain, he may have a hard time lowering his head to eat and drink out of his bowl if you keep it on the floor. Keep your dog's bowl elevated to a height that allows him to eat and drink without having to bend and stoop. It is important when managing neck pain to be alert for any deterioration in the dog's mobility. Neck pain is often a warning sign of other impending health problems, so it's important to determine and treat the cause of the pain, rather than just the pain itself. Any dog with neck pain should be rested as movement is likely to make the pain worse. If the dog has other symptoms, such as if he goes off his food, then a vet check is essential.

TL;DR in English: Use a harness to walk your dog. Use a heating pad. Make food and water more easily accessible. Monitor any deterioration in your dog’s mobility.

This cell must be different than the cell in which your target text appears. If you haven't already added your data to Excel, you'll need to do so first. MID chops characters off of the beginning and end of your selected cell's text. To set up the MID formula, you type "=MID(Cell Name, Starting Character Number, Number of characters to display)" without the quotation marks. For example:   =MID(A1, 3, 3) displays three characters from cell A1, the first of which is the third character from the left in the text. If A1's text says "racecar", the truncated text will read "cec" in your selected cell. Similarly, =MID(B3, 4, 8) displays eight characters from cell B3, starting with the fourth character from the left. If B3's text says "bananas aren't people", the truncated text will read "anas are" in your selected cell. This will add the truncated text to your selected cell.

Place the filler flowers around the wreath in the same manner as the focal flowers. It looks best to be symmetrical. For example, you might want to attach one after each focal flower, a little to the left of center of one, then a little to the right of center of the next one. Continue until you've used up most of the flowers. Shorter ones will be attached at the top and bottom, just as before.  Allow a couple of the longer stemmed ones to extend past the edges of the wreath a little to give it a designer look. Hot glue two or three pieces of the flowers and some of the individual leaves into the folds of the bow. Place the filler berries, etc. that you chose in the same manner as you did the filler flowers, this time placing them before and to the right and left of your focal flowers. Again a couple can be glued into the bow. Don't forget to make sure a few pieces are sticking out of the outer edges and into the center of the wreath, not just on the flat surface. Make sure that the pipe cleaners that attach the ribbon are covered by flowers. These are called your "mechanics" and should be covered with these last pieces of flowers and greenery.  Make sure your pipe cleaner ends, etc. are all tucked into the wreath.  Don't forget to make sure that everything you put into the wreath is in the clockwise direction. This consistency is what makes your wreath look professional. Hang your wreath if you were working on a flat surface. Step back about 6 feet (1.8 m) and squint your eyes to "see" where your "holes" are. These are areas that lack color, fullness, or look somehow uneven. Attach your final embellishments, the picks, flags, etc., into the empty areas. Make sure to save one to go into the middle of your bow, you will glue it in and make sure it sticks out about 4 inches (10.2 cm), which will be the farthest thing of all to stick out of your wreath, making it the final focal point.  Any small leaves or pieces that you have left can be hot glued into the bow or other areas as desired. Replace the flowers and...

TL;DR in English: Attach any small accent flowers. Position any other decorations you’ve chosen. Finish and hide any unsightly pieces. Take a last look. Hang your wreath and enjoy!

Many crystal glasses have a dishwasher safe label. If yours do not, check with the manufacturer or research online to find out if they can be put in the dishwasher. Crystal manufacturer Riedel notes that their glasses are used in hotels around the world and are thus cleaned in professional dishwashers. If you cannot find any information, err on the side of caution and wash by hand. Ensure your glasses, bowls, or other crystal items have enough space. You don’t want them touching, as they could jostle and bump into each other causing damage during the dishwashing cycle. Don’t overcrowd or overload the dishwasher, and be sure any long-stemmed glasses fit securely in the rack. Don’t start the dishwasher until your crystal has had time to come to room temperature. Sudden changes in temperature, such as heating a chilled glass, can cause breakage or damage to crystal. Don’t add extra detergent in the hopes of getting your crystal extra clean. Excessive detergent can leave a cloudy film on your crystal. Follow the recommendations for your dishwasher and detergent, taking into account whether you have hard or soft water. Start your dishwasher and allow it to run its normal cycle. Don’t interrupt the cycle or open the door in the middle of cleaning. Allow the dishes to cool before opening the door to the dishwasher. This will also let your crystal dry in case the dish-washing cycle didn’t fully dry the crystal. Depending on your dishwasher and water temperature, this could take several hours. You may want to wear gloves or remove the crystal with a lint-free cloth to prevent smudging and fingerprints. You can also use the lint-free cloth to remove any left-over water spots.

TL;DR in English: Ensure your crystal is dishwasher safe. Load the dishwasher carefully. Allow crystal to warm up. Use a small amount of detergent. Run the dishwasher. Let the crystal cool. Remove the crystal carefully.

Take the overlapping ends and mark each of them 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) from where they overlap each other. Use a piece of chalk to make these marks. If your binding is narrower or wider than 2.5 inches (6.4 cm), then use half the width to determine where to mark the ends. Cut the binding at the marks to remove the excess fabric. Cut straight across the marks on the overlapping pieces. Unfurl the binding and then line the binding pieces up. Make sure the print sides of the binding strips are facing each other and the pieces are perpendicular to each other. The end of one strip should be even with the side of the other strip. The overlapping ends will form a square. Stitch a diagonal line across the square.  This will create a diagonal stitch line that connects the two ends and creates a triangle of excess fabric that you can cut off. Do not stitch across the square going from the outside of the binding to the inside. Stitch across the square diagonally going from side to side. Cut just outside of the stitch line that runs diagonally across the square to remove the excess triangle of fabric. Then, open up the binding strips to reveal the right sides of the binding fabric again. Your strips should be connected by a diagonal seam, which allows you to sew the binding onto your quilt without the raw edges of the seam showing. After you have finished closing up the binding, you will need to attach the binding to the edges of your quilt. Pin the binding to your quilt so that the right sides of the binding and the right sides of the quilt are facing each other. Then, sew a straight stitch 0.5 inches (1.3 cm) from the edges of the quilt going through the quilt and binding. After sewing the binding all the way around the quilt, fold the binding over to the opposite side of the quilt so there is an even amount of binding on both sides of the quilt. Then, sew a straight stitch into the seam you have created to secure the other side of the binding.

TL;DR in English: Mark the binding 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) from the overlap for 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) binding. Cut the binding where you have marked it. Match up the print sides of the binding ends so the pieces are perpendicular. Stitch across the square from one corner to the other. Cut off the excess fabric and open up the binding. Sew the binding onto the edges of your quilt.

Since spiders are not insects, many generic insecticides may not have a strong effect against wolf spiders.  A pesticide specifically labeled for wolf spiders is even better, but most chemical products designed to work against spiders will work effectively. Chemicals designed to kill spiders immediately will only exterminate spiders already in the home. These measures should be used in conjunction with measures designed to prevent wolf spiders from sneaking in for maximum effectiveness. Residual chemicals provide more long-term effectiveness and may be more helpful if you have difficulty preventing spiders from getting into the building. Residual pesticides sprinkled on the ground work better against wolf spiders than many other spider varieties. Many spiders travel along webs and walls, and as a result, they rarely cross over barriers made with residual pesticides. Wolf spiders hunt on the ground, however, so they are more likely to step into a residual pesticide. These usually include residual insecticides that are sprayed or sprinkled.  Pyrethroids are a family of chemicals made from pyrethrum flowers. Insecticides made with pyrethroids are common and usually the most effective against spiders of all varieties. Common pyrethroids used in household insecticides include bifenthrin, cyfluthrin, permethrin, and tetramethrin. Aside from pyrethroid insecticides, insecticides containing deltamethrin, cypermethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, or bifenthrin are also generally effective against wolf spiders. Sprinkle a small amount of boric acid in dark corners, cracks, and under floorboards and furniture.  Boric acid, also called hydrogen borate, is a white powder used for insecticidal, industrial, and other purposes. It is relatively non-toxic for adult humans, but it may pose a threat to children and pets. The chemical is abrasive, cutting into the exterior of the wolf spider and causing it to leak bodily fluids. It also acts as a stomach poison. The spider gets it on its legs and ingests the poison as it grooms itself....

It will feel good to finally sort some stuff out. tart reading a good book. Think about the plot and characters and what it is about the story that moves you. National Geographic Kids or Nickelodeon might be a little childish, but reading them will make you feel better because they will give you something to do without having to think too hard.

Every bro's gotta have a code. It's the thing that unites and binds and solidifies the concept of the bro, separating bro from the common beasts and squirrels of the world. Your bro code is up to you and your bros, as well as the punishments for transgressing, but a few rules are generally universal when it comes to bros.  Never mess with your bro's date, sister, or mother Always have a bro's back Always take wingman responsibilities seriously Bros won't make other bros look bad in front of girls Bros don't let bros drive drunk Bros gotta stick together. The number one requirement for being a bro? Surround yourself with other brosephs, brahs, and brosiehs. Get a close-knit community of friends to hang out with and support each other. Leave no bro behind.  Lots of bros join fraternities in college, but it's not a requirement. Wherever you can, find like-minded male friends that you can bond with on a deep level. That might mean joining a fraternal organization of some kind, but you can also find male friends at work, church, the garage, or school. Intramural sports are great for meeting guys with similar interests. Likewise, if you're a gym rat, hang around the weight room to meet up with lifting buddies. You can have some school bros, some gym bros, a different set for every situation. When two bros meet, they don't shake hands like a couple of preachers. And they certainly don't hug. They bro-shake. It's like a combination hug, high-five, and arm-wrestling match. In other words, perfect for bros.  To execute the bro shake, high-five your friend about chest high, at a 45 degree angle, grasping his hand as if you were about to arm-wrestle. Don't let go. Flex your guns. Think of the bicep-bulging scene in Predator where Schwarzenegger meets Carl Weathers. Next, keeping your hands grasped, use your other hand to pat your bro's back one time, hard, in a half-embrace. Your arm-wreslte hand-shake will still be between you, so it won't be a full on hug. A bro-hug, a bro-shake, whatever you want to call it, it's...

TL;DR in English: Live by a bro code. Find your neighbors and build up a brommunity. Learn the proper bro-shake. Be reliable. Say what you mean. Always be rallying. Find bro inspirations. Try to make every day epic.

Just because you aren't a big company, that doesn't mean you shouldn't have a vivid professional brand.  Here are a few points to consider:  Decide whether you will use your own name or work under a business name. Don't be afraid to invest in business cards, a logo, uniforms and a sign to put outside your home or business. Make sure all of them are consistently branded. Make it clean and professional. Use a logo or imagery that conveys your business or service. Include details about your offering and your prices and try to demonstrate your skills. If you are a designer or a writer, put up samples of your work. Let people know how to contact you. Actively marketing your services is vital to get your name out there, and it shows prospective clients that you're available for work.  Consider these avenues:  Investigate online advertising.  This could include setting up social media accounts for your business, sending emails with special offers, or signing up for ads. Pursue print publishing.  Buy up space in your local newspaper, or find a trade publication that caters to people in your industry and pursue an ad there. If there are publications or web pages that compare different contractors who offer the same services, make sure to get yourself listed. Describe your services in brochures. You can hire a professional to make them for you, or build them yourself using software like Microsoft Word or Open Office. Consider enlisting the help of a copywriter to highlight your unique skills and strengths. The right connections can make all the difference in running your own business.

In the U.S., the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has limited authority to regulate cosmetics, but it can legally regulate color additives in cosmetics (as well as foods and drugs).  Color additives require prior approval from the FDA before the products can legally be manufactured or sold in the U.S. Although there are some variations, the typical limit for lead in a color additive is 20 parts per million, which is well within recognized safe parameters under normal use.  A listing of FDA-permitted color additives is available at http://www.fda.gov/Cosmetics/Labeling/IngredientNames/ucm109084.htm. Eyeliners known by names including kohl, kajal, and surma have long been popular in many parts of the world, and occasionally appear for sale in the U.S.  However, these eyeliners contain high amounts of lead and are not approved for sale or use in the U.S.  The danger of these products is real — they have been linked to cases of lead poisoning in children. These eyeliners are on an FDA “import alert,” meaning they can be seized by FDA field personnel to prevent sale or distribution. Most hair dye products, and especially progressive hair dyes that darken hair color over time, use color additives that are subject to FDA approval.  They typically contain lead acetate, and are permitted by the FDA to have much higher concentrations of lead than is typically allowed for color additives. The FDA contends that, when used as intended, the elevated lead content in these products is not a health concern because the product does not enter the body.  However, the products must contain this special label on the packaging: "Caution: Contains lead acetate. For external use only. Keep this product out of children's reach. Do not use on cut or abraded scalp. If skin irritation develops, discontinue use. Do not use to color mustaches, eyelashes, eyebrows, or hair on parts of the body other than the scalp. Do not get in eyes. Follow instructions carefully and wash hands thoroughly after use." Lipstick is the most common cause for...

Learn the basics of reflexology. Understand reflexology zones. Consider making an appointment with a reflexologist. Practice applying pressure to reflex points.

Rest your voice. Keep hydrated. Gargle with an antiseptic solution. Suck on lozenges. Breath moist air. Avoid whispering. Avoid throat irritants.

Reflexology is based on the premise that the nerves in your feet, hands and ears each correspond with other parts of your body. Applying pressure to certain reflex areas can relieve symptoms in other parts of the body. Engaging a nerve in your big toe, for example, could reduce tension in your head and relieve a headache. Applying pressure to your heel could aid in digestion. Reflexology has even been used to aid in treatment for serious conditions like cancer, diabetes and heart disease. Research has shown that reflexology has four primary effects:  It can impact specific organs, such as by increasing blood flow to the kidneys. It can bring about an amelioration of specific symptoms by helping organs function properly. It can create a relaxation effect and reduce anxiety. It can relieve pain throughout the body. Reflexology is based on the idea that the body can be divided into zones. Picture your body divided into a system of longitudinal and transverse zones. Imagine five zones on each side of your body, starting at the tip of each toe, and running up the length of your body to the top of your head. The transverse zones (similar to lines of latitude) divide the areas of your feet into zones that correspond to your head and neck, your chest, abdomen and your pelvis area. Engaging the tip of a particular zone by applying pressure to a place on the foot activates the body's healing power for that entire zone. This concept is also referred to as zone therapy.  When you perform reflexology, it's necessary to learn where the reflexes are on the feet that correspond to every limb, organ and gland of your body. When you apply pressure to these specific points, you stimulate the corresponding limb, organ or gland. In this way you can use reflexology to stimulate your body's healing power. When your body is experiencing stress, your energy reserves get depleted and you are less able to fight infections or combat pain. But when your body is in a deeply relaxed state induced by reflexology, your body’s natural healing...

For thick buildup on porcelain surfaces, you’ll need to use something a little more heavy-duty. Use a product like Comet or Ajax that comes in powdered form. The small particles will be able to penetrate deeper into stains that have set up on the surface of the tub to remove them.  Powdered cleansers contain chemicals known as surfactants which have mild abrasive properties. This makes them much more effective for addressing hardened, stuck-on residue.  Apply abrasive cleansers sparingly. For most jobs, a single canister be enough for a single thorough cleaning. Alternately, tough stains like rust and hard water residue can be treated with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide and cream of tartar. Blend the two ingredients together until they're about the same consistency as cake frosting and spread them directly over the stains. After 10 minutes, buff the stains with a nylon brush or pumice stone until they're erased completely.  Homemade concoctions like hydrogen peroxide and cream of tartar will be preferable for those who are wary of the health and environmental effects of chemical cleaning products. Hydrogen peroxide will also help treat age-related discoloration and lighten the finish of the tub. A moderate dusting should be enough to deal with most messes. The powder won’t stick to the surface of the porcelain on its own, but when combined with a liquid it will form a paste that can be spread directly over stains. Be sure to cover the bottom of the tub, where accumulated mold can become a slipping hazard. Spray purified or ordinary tap water onto the cleaning powder. With the addition of moisture, the powder will take on a thick, foamy consistency. Rub this paste into the stains and give it about half an hour to take effect.  You can also wet a clean sponge or washcloth and use it to rub in the cleaner until it thickens.  Another option is to wet the tub before you apply the cleanser. Spray the tub with the shower head or fill a cup with water and pour it around the inside of the tub. Be careful not to add an...

TL;DR in English: Pick up a canister of abrasive cleaning powder. Stick with natural alternatives. Sprinkle the cleaning powder around the stained tub. Add enough water to produce a paste. Scour the stains with a sturdy scrubber.

The plastic bag will need to cover the entire length of your dog. Look for a garbage bag that will be the right size for your dog, depending on whether you have a small, medium, or large dog. If possible, use a thicker garbage bag, such as a heavy duty garbage bag, for durability and to make the poncho more resistant to water. To make the plastic poncho, you will need a pair of scissors and a marker that is a different color than the color of the plastic bag. You will use the marker to note where you will cut the bag when you measure the bag against the shape and size of your dog. You will need to lay the bag down flat on the ground and cut it, so look for an area in your home or your backyard that is open and easy to move around in. You will also need your dog to stay in one spot while you measure the bag against his body so you may want to choose a spot in your home that you dog is comfortable in or likes.

TL;DR in English: Choose a small garbage sized plastic bag. Gather the rest of the supplies. Find an open area.

Most cases of hoarseness are caused by talking too much, particularly if you have to constantly raise (strain) your voice to be heard — noisy restaurants/bars, concerts and industrial environments can easily trigger a short-term bout of laryngitis; however, laryngitis from overuse heals pretty quickly, so resting your voice for a day or two is often the most important first step in getting your voice back.  If you find yourself at a noisy venue, either talk less or get closer to the ear of  the person you're trying to converse with. Avoid shouting and having to repeat yourself. In addition to hoarseness or voice loss, other symptoms of laryngitis include: a dry throat, sore throat, a tickling sensation in the throat that triggers a dry cough, and mucous build-up in the throat. Keeping yourself well-hydrated will keep the mucus membranes of your throat moist, which helps to reduce inflammation and discomfort. With less irritation, you'll find yourself coughing and clearing your throat less often — which are factors that can prolong bouts of laryngitis/hoarseness. Avoid carbonated water because it can further tickle your throat and trigger a coughing spell.  Start with drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of purified water per day to rehydrate yourself and keep the mucus membranes of your throat/larynx moist. Dairy-based beverages can thicken mucus. Sugary drinks may increase mucus production and should be avoided. Consider warming some water (not too hot) to loosen nasal and throat congestion, adding a little honey and lemon. Honey can soothe a sore or irritated throat, while lemon juice is a mild antiseptic that can combat infections, as well as clear mucus from your throat. Infections of the throat can also lead to laryngitis. Viral infections are the most common, although bacterial and fungal (Candida) infections can trigger hoarseness also. If you suspect your laryngitis is caused by an infection, then gargle with antiseptic solutions that are able to kill a variety of microorganisms. A 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a...

Monitor your portion sizes. Reduce your alcohol intake. Don’t use cigarettes as an appetite suppressant. Increase the amount of calories you burn through exercise.

Read up on current issues and events in the newspaper and legitimate online sources. Don't rely on information from your social media feed. Make an effort to seek out other sources for news and stay in the know about what’s happening in the world around you.  When you learn about current events, discuss them with your parents or other adults. You might say, “What do you think about the president’s new bill, Dad?” Look at online sources like CNN Student News, BBC News, and Smithsonian Tween Tribune. Read the newspaper in the mornings and check out a few academic journals from the library on topics you’re interested in. Whether you are reading a book about real-world facts or made-up stories, reading can be a great hobby. Reading a book not only makes you wiser, but also adds new words to your vocabulary. This helps you improve your ability to comprehend and even enhances your own writing skills. Plus, reading can help you relieve stress, too. Go beyond the reading assignments needed for school. To enjoy the habit of reading, choose books that relate to your interests, such as airplanes or ancient Egypt. Critical thinking skills describe the way you go about solving a problem. You might jump at the quickest answer that comes to mind, or you might spend more time viewing all angles of the problem before selecting an answer. Being a critical thinker can help you better judge the consequences of your actions, evaluate the validity of information, and learn to think outside the box. A great way to build critical thinking skills is by playing board games. Schedule a game night with your family and/or closest pals. Good board game options include Apples to Apples and Scattergories.

TL;DR in English: Stay informed on current events. Read books. Use your  critical thinking skills.

If someone sent you a communication with offensive language, then you should hold onto it. That evidence could be critical to a sexual harassment case. Preserve the following types of communications:  voice mails emails handwritten notes Sometimes sexual harassment happens in private. In these situations, only two people observed the conduct—you and the harasser. As best as you can, you should document what happened and what was said.  Try to be sufficiently detailed. The more detail you can provide, the more credible you will appear.  Include all important details, such as the date and location of the harassment, as well as the identity of the harasser and your own emotional response. Also note the date that you are writing down your memories. Other people may have seen the harassment and can serve as witnesses to back up your story. Whoever investigates your claim will also want to talk to your coworkers, so you should identify those with relevant information.  You should also identify people who saw you immediately after the incident or people who you told about the harassment. If other people were harassed in the same manner by the same person, then you should identify them as well. You might be seeing a doctor or therapist to help you deal with the harassment. If so, then document your visits. You should also hold onto any records which contain a diagnosis.

TL;DR in English: Preserve communications. Write down your memories. Identify witnesses to the behavior. Document the effects on your health.

Keep track of how many servings you eat and avoid going back for seconds. If you need to, measure the amounts of food with a measuring cup to train yourself to correctly estimate amounts.  Some people find it helpful to use a small plate or bowl to prevent themselves from taking too much food. Don’t eat the entire meal when you go out to eat. Restaurants often serve much more food than is healthy. If you enjoyed the meal, take it home and finish it the next day. Alcohol is high in calories. Drinking too much may make you prone to obesity, which will then increase your risk of heart problems. If you drink, do so in moderation.  Women and men over 65 should have no more than one drink per day. Men under 65 should limit their alcohol consumption to two drinks per day. A 12 oz beer, 5 oz glass of wine, or 1.5 oz of hard liquor qualifies as a drink. Many people are reluctant to quit smoking because they are worried it will make them gain weight. Smoking and chewing tobacco increase your risk of having hard, narrow arteries. This increases your blood pressure, your risk of heart attacks, heart disease, and strokes. If you need help to both quit and manage your weight simultaneously, there are many resources available:  Talk to your doctor or see a counselor Consult a nutritionist or dietician to develop a meal plan that will work for you Join support groups or call hotlines Discuss medications or nicotine replacement therapy with your doctor Exercise will help you to lose weight and keep it off. It will also help you to lower your blood pressure and cholesterol levels.  Do 75–150 minutes of physical activity per week. You can spread it out however it works best with your schedule. Great low-cost options include walking, running, biking, swimming, and playing sports such as basketball or soccer. If you need to lower your blood pressure and cholesterol, try to do at least 40 minutes of physical activity three to four days a week. You will probably be surprised how quickly you feel yourself getting fitter.

You should focus on identifying your performance issues so you can then address them successfully. Start by asking the reviewer or your boss questions to clarify any notes in your performance review. In your questions, request concrete examples of what you can do better in the future so you can take real action.  For example, you may notice the reviewer notes you do not take enough risks in your current role. You may then ask, “Can you provide an example of a time when I should have taken a risk? What could I have done differently to take more initiative?” Another example may be a comment in your review of not hitting the performance targets for your department. You may then ask, “What level of performance would you consider a success? How can I achieve this performance for my department?” You should then take some time to reflect on the feedback given to you in the performance review. Thank the reviewer for feedback and then go home and think on what they had to say. Read over the review in detail and allow yourself to digest the feedback.  You may ask yourself, “How can I address this feedback in my day to day actions?” or “What can I do differently moving forward?” Asking yourself clarifying questions can make it easier for you to understand and accept the feedback. You may want to reach out to your colleagues and your friends for advice. Discussing the negative review with others can help you put the feedback into perspective and better understand where you went wrong. Try to talk to friends who are in a professional career that is similar to yours or to a peer who has experience with negative performance reviews in the past. If you are dealing with a negative performance review, be careful not to vent about the review to people you work with, especially if you are not close with them or you do not have a trusting relationship. You do not want word to get back to your boss that you are complaining about your bad performance review. Depending on your company’s policy, you may be placed on probation and...

After a person gets the chickenpox virus, that virus will stay with them, sometimes resulting in outbreaks of a rash and blisters. The most common symptoms of shingles are:  Headache Flu-like symptoms Sensitivity to light Itching, irritation, tingling, and pain where a rash starts developing, but only on one side of the body Knowing the symptoms of each stage can help you doctor evaluate how to best treat your case.  Stage 1 (before the rash): itchiness, tingling, numbness or pain develops in the area where the rash will eventually develop. Diarrhea, stomach ache, and chills (usually without fever) accompany this dermal irritation. Your lymph nodes may be tender or swollen. Stage 2 (rash and blisters): a rash will develop on one side of your body, with blisters forming eventually. The liquid in the blisters starts off clear but eventually gets cloudy. If a rash develops around the eyes, see a doctor immediately. The rash and blisters are sometimes accompanied by intense stinging pain. Stage 3 (after the rash and blisters): pain may develop in the area affected by the rash. This pain is called postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), and it may last a matter of weeks or even years. PHN is associated with extreme sensitivity, chronic pain, as well as aching or burning sensations. If you receive immunosuppressive drugs, such as steroids, after an organ transplant, you are at a higher risk of getting shingles. If you suffer from the following conditions, you are also at a higher risk:  Cancer Lymphoma Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) Leukemia

Engaging manual mode on your garage door while it’s open may cause it to come crashing closed if the door spring is damaged. Avoid this by setting it to manual mode while the door is closed. If this is impossible because the door is stuck open, move on to the next step. Use 2x4s that are as high as the garage door opening. If you don't have 2x4s that will fit the opening, you can improvise by placing a sturdy item like a shelf in its place. Use a hammer to tap the planks in between the door and the floor on each side of the garage door opening. Using something sturdy to prop up the door will prevent it from slamming shut, even if the garage door spring is damaged. The manual release cord is usually red and located next to the garage door motor. Pull down on this cord to disconnect the trolley from the automatic opening system. Pulling the cord will allow you to manually open and close your garage door. Have someone help you as you manually close the door. Remove the 2x4s by tapping them out with a hammer as someone holds the handle on the door. Once the 2x4s are removed, slowly and carefully lower the garage door to the closed position. Prevent the manual release cord from getting caught on the garage door tracks by pulling it down and towards the motor when you’re opening the door. If you have trouble doing this yourself, ask someone for help. If you want to set the garage door back to automatic mode, you'll need to pull the manual release cord towards the door opening while simultaneously opening the door. Doing this should reconnect the trolley to the automatic opening system and allow you to automatically open and close the door with the button again.

TL;DR in English: Ensure that the door is closed, if possible. Prop the door up with 2x4s if it’s stuck open. Pull down on the door’s manual release cord. Remove the 2x4s and manually close the door if it was stuck open. Pull the cord towards the garage door motor to open the door. Pull the cord towards the door opening when engaging automatic mode.

You want to make sure you harvest sugar cane during the right times of year. During certain periods, sugar cane is more likely to be strong and ready to harvest. For best results, you should hold off on harvesting your sugar cane until late fall. At this point, the shoots should be tall and strong enough to cut down. Some shoots may take longer to grow than others. Starting in early fall, observe the shoots. Hold off on harvesting until they all display signs they're healthy and ready to trim.  Check the leaves. Leaves that appear yellowish and slightly dry are ready to harvest. Tap the cane with your hand. It should make a metallic sound if it's ready to harvest. If you're still unsure, make a small sideways cut in the cane. Turn the cut towards the sun. The inside of the plant should glisten slightly if it's ready to harvest. Do not wait too late in fall to harvest sugar cane. If you harvest the plant after frost has set in, a lot of the plant will have spoiled. Make sure you watch the weather forecast and get to harvesting the crop before the first snow or below freezing temperature of the year. If you plan on burning sugar cane leaves after harvest, check regulations in your area. Not all states will allow you to burn plants on your property. You can check with your local Department of Natural Resources to see if it's legal to burn excess leaves in your area. If there are regulations forbidding this, you should find another way to dispose of excess leaves.

TL;DR in English: Harvest sugar cane at the right time. Observe the shoots to make sure they're ready to harvest. Make sure you harvest sugar cane before frost sets in. Check regulations if you plan to burn excess leaves.

Pin the paper pattern onto a piece of quilters’ batting, with the “R” side up. With a fabric marker or pencil, trace around the edges. Label the piece of batting “R.” Repeat for a second piece. Flip the pattern piece over so that the “L” side faces up. Pin the paper pattern onto quilters’ batting and trace around the edges before labeling this piece “L.” Do this a second time so you end up with 2 pieces labeled “L." Carefully cut around each pattern piece that you traced with sharp fabric scissors. You should end up with 2 separate pieces that are labeled "L" and 2 other pieces labeled "R." Pin your paper pattern onto the wrong side of a piece of lining fabric. Then, trace around the pattern piece. Use a ruler to mark 1 in (2.5 cm) of seam allowance around the entire piece. Do this once for the “R” side and once for the “L” side. The lining fabric you choose should match the fabric on the inside of your garment. If you’re working with a red blazer that’s lined in black fabric, you should select a similar black fabric to use for covering the shoulder pads.

Use 1/3 cup (80 ml) of regular ketchup. Depending on how many mugs you are cleaning, you may need to use more ketchup. Spread a thin film of ketchup over the outside and inside of the mug. If your mugs are very tarnished, you may need to let the ketchup set for a longer amount of time like 10 to 15 minutes. Scrub the mugs in a circular motion with the toothbrush. Scrub until all the tarnish is gone and the mugs’ surfaces shine again. Run the mugs under cold or warm water until all the ketchup is removed. To dry the mugs thoroughly, dry them twice. Use a clean cotton cloth to wipe the mugs down. Then wipe them down again with a second cotton cloth. Make sure all traces of water are gone before storing your mugs.

Place the liner tight to the bottom and sides of the pool. Cut the liner to fit the sides correctly, making sure it sits right at the top line of the pool. Line both the main pool and the hole for the water zone so they are protected. The synthetic liner is a good way to prevent leaks or cracks in the pool due to rocks or other objects. Another option is to apply a layer of bentonite clay over the holes for the swimming pool and the plant zone. You will need at least 6 pounds (2.7 kg) of clay per square foot to seal the pool. Spread a 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) layer of clay with your hands. Wear gloves and a face mask to protect yourself.  If the soil is very sandy, you may need to double the amount of clay per square foot to ensure the pool is properly sealed. Pack the clay down with a tractor or a plate compactor to really seal it into the soil. Use synthetic liner that is black over the base liner or the clay so it can trap the heat of the sun, heating up the pool naturally. It will also help to protect the pool from leaking.  Leave a piece of liner hanging between the pool and the plant zone. Cut the piece so it sits 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) below the top edge of the pool. This piece of liner will act as a barrier between the pool and the plant zone. Use scissors to cut the liner so it just drapes over the sides of the pool. Use smooth slabs or rocks to secure the liner and create an extra barrier. Lay them against the walls of the pool so they sit flush to the top edge of the pool. You can then fill in any gaps between the large rocks with smaller rocks or slabs. You can also use stone slabs that have been cut to fit together if you want a smooth, even surface for the sides of the pool. The stone slabs will be heavy to lift so you may need someone to help you lift them in place. Cover the bottom of the pool with gravel or pea rock  to create a good habitat for microorganisms. This will also keep the bottom soft and easy to walk on. Make sure you use gravel or pea rock that has been washed so...

TL;DR in English: Use synthetic liner to smooth out the bottom and sides of the pool. Apply bentonite clay if you do not want to use a synthetic liner. Lay black liner on the bottom and sides of the pool to reflect the sun. Place large rocks on the walls of the pool to keep the liner in place. Fill the pool with 4 to 5 inches (10 to 13 cm) of gravel or pea rock. Line the edge of the pool with rocks or pebbles. Put water in the pool and let it rest for a week.

Stopping hoarding on your own can be quite challenging. It can help to seek out the services of a professional who has experience helping people with your condition. Typically, hoarding is treated by educating families about the condition and by offering therapy to the individual or the family as a whole. Therapeutic treatments for hoarding may include helping you develop better decision-making skills, challenging irrational beliefs with cognitive behavioral therapy, addressing your fears with exposure therapy and boosting your motivation for sticking with your new skills. Working with an experienced mental health provider can help you make sure you are dealing with the underlying problem as well as the symptom (i.e. hoarding).  Although medications are generally not a recognized treatment for hoarding, they may be useful to control underlying conditions such as depression or anxiety. Antidepressant medications known as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are typically the first choice in treating depression and anxiety symptoms. Sharing your experiences with other people who hoard may help you feel less alone in this process. Plus, talking to other individuals and their families can help you learn different coping strategies for dealing with anxiety and various systems for controlling clutter.  Talk to your mental health provider to find out if there are specific groups in your area dedicated to hoarding. You might also join an online support group, such as Clutterers Anonymous or Messies Anonymous. Other supportive resources are the International OCD Foundation Hoarding Center and ChildrenofHoarders.com.

If you have a laptop, the USB ports are probably on the left or right side of the housing. Desktop users may find the USB ports on the back or the front of the desktop tower, though iMacs have the USB ports on the back of the monitor itself. There are two main types of USB ports found on modern computers:   USB 3.0 — A thin, rectangular slot that's about 3/4 of an inch (a little under two centimeters) wide. You should see a chunk of plastic in the upper half of this slot. USB 3.0 slots are found on the majority of Windows computers and on most Mac computers manufactured prior to 2016.  USB-C — A thin, oval slot that's about 1/2 of an inch (a little over a centimeter) wide. These are most commonly found on MacBook and MacBook Pro computers, though some Windows laptops also have USB-C ports. If your computer has both types of port, you're free to use whichever port you like depending on your USB flash drive type. Look at the metal connector end of your flash drive:  If the connector is rectangular and has a piece of plastic taking up part of the connector, you have a USB 3.0 flash drive. If the connector is oval and has no piece of plastic inside of it, you have a USB-C flash drive. If the flash drive that you want to use is a USB 3.0 version but your computer uses USB-C ports, you'll need to buy a USB-C adapter and plug it into the USB-C port on your computer. This is most common on MacBooks and MacBook Pros from 2016 and up, though some Windows computers also have only USB-C ports. If you're using a USB 3.0 flash drive, make sure that the plastic piece in the flash drive's connector is at the bottom of the flash drive so as to slide under the piece of plastic that's at the top of the USB 3.0 port.  USB-C flash drives can be inserted either way. If you're using a USB-C adapter, you'll plug your USB flash drive into a USB 3.9 slot in the adapter instead.

TL;DR in English: Locate your computer's USB port. Determine your computer's USB port type. Figure out which type of flash drive you have. Buy and attach an adapter if necessary. Plug your flash drive into your computer.

A manic episode is a mood state in which your child's mood is expanded. They may demonstrate an extraordinary amount of optimism and a sudden rush of energy. Symptoms include:  Elevated self-esteem Decreased need for sleep (for example, your child could sleep for three hours and feel well-rested) Increased interest in activities, hobbies, and/or goals Rapid speech and speaking nonstop Racing thoughts Attention loss Reckless behavior A depressive episode is the opposite of a manic one. This episode usually includes sadness and gloomy emotions and behavior. Symptoms include:  Sleeping too much or feeling tired a lot Losing interest in hobbies, activities, and/or goals Feeling negative and low Withdrawing from friends Lack of energy Trouble focusing Changes in appetite, like eating too much or too little When your child is in an episode, they may say many hurtful things towards you or others. They may think negatively about you and verbalize those thoughts. Don't take this to heart. Understand that your child is having a hard time due to the episode.  Your child may be quite aggressive, violent, cruel, and reckless. They may lack judgment skills and be harsh. Talk to your spouse or a friend or family member for support. You may also consider seeing a therapist yourself to help you cope. It is important to practice self-care so that you can care for your child. When experiencing an episode, your child may become violent or aggressive. They may harm themselves or others. Form a plan before your child has an episode so you'll know to react when your child behaves this way. Talk to your child's doctor or therapist about how to act when your child behaves in a destructive manner. Some examples: For example, if your child starts banging their head against the wall, you might place pillows beneath them. If they start to become violent towards someone else, you might bring them into a quiet room so they can calm down. If your child starts to scratch themselves purposely, you might bring them putty to help them relax and...

TL;DR in English: Identify the signs of a manic episode. Recognize the signs of a depressive episode. Avoid taking bipolar disorder comments personally. Be prepared for destructive behaviors. Offer support to your child. Create a crisis plan. Take suicide threats seriously.

The 1 is always understood, and so is rarely written. However, when adding, writing the 1 can help you keep track of coefficients.  A coefficient is the number in front of the radical sign. For example, write 5{\displaystyle {\sqrt {5}}} as 15{\displaystyle 1{\sqrt {5}}}. You can only add square roots that have the same radicand.  The radicand is the number underneath the radical sign. For example, you can add the first three terms in the expression 25+125+5+7{\displaystyle 2{\sqrt {5}}+12{\sqrt {5}}+{\sqrt {5}}+{\sqrt {7}}}, because they all have the same radicand (5). Only add the coefficients for terms that have the same radicand. Do NOT add the radicands. For example, 25+125+15=155{\displaystyle 2{\sqrt {5}}+12{\sqrt {5}}+1{\sqrt {5}}=15{\sqrt {5}}}. These cannot be simplified any further, and cannot be added to any other terms. The result will be your final, simplified answer. For example, 155+7{\displaystyle 15{\sqrt {5}}+{\sqrt {7}}}.

TL;DR in English: Place a 1 in front of any square root that doesn’t already have a coefficient. Check for square roots with the same radicand. Add the coefficients. Add any unlike radicands to the expression.

The goal is to keep changing activities every hour or so. If you've got friends with you, a board game is the perfect activity for this period of the night. You'll have to pay attention to play well, which means you're less likely to get drowsy. Keep your blood flowing to fight the tiredness. Do some kind of exercise, like running around the yard, or some jumping jacks. If you can, play some basketball outside. Anything that keeps you active is going to help.  Make sure not to exercise or play so hard that you get exhausted though. Keep it somewhat light. If you want to play outside, ask your parents permission earlier that day first. Depending on your family's rules, this might not be necessary if you're just staying in the backyard. But if you're planning on leaving the house property, get permission first. Being outside at night without an adult can be dangerous, especially if you're alone. Cold water might be a little uncomfortable, but that's the point. Being too comfortable will make you more likely to fall asleep. If you find yourself dozing off, go to the bathroom and splash some cold water on your face.

Find the gift you have to pull the day out of the jar. Save a jar from your kitchen for this project. Gather the following materials:  An empty jar Felt balls Decorative paper Pens or markers Paints Use paints and decorative paper to decorate your jar. Make sure you thoroughly wash your jar if

Gather your supplies. Decorate the jar. Cut out strips of paper. Glue felt balls to each piece of paper.

Children learn best when they are engaged and enjoying themselves. Using different games and fun activities can spark your child’s interest in colors and help him or her retain the information more effectively. A good way to think of this is “busy hands, busy brains.”  Try different types of games with your child and see which one he or she likes best. For example, you could ask your child to select a crayon, marker, or piece of construction that he or she likes. Then take your toddler out for a walk and say, “let’s spot colors that are the same as your paper. I bet you can beat me!”  Tie a different colored ribbon to the tops of three long-handled spoons. Put them in a small pail and tell your child to dash to a specific colored spoon. Make sure to offer positive reinforcement such as, “great job, Sara, you found the pink ribbon!” Toddlers often love to pick out their own clothing and will put together all sorts of fun combinations. Use getting dressed as another opportunity to teach your little one different colors.  Allow your toddler to pick out an item of clothing and say, “that’s very nice, what color is it?” If your child knows the color, then ask him or her to get another piece of clothing in the same color. Remember to keep your color descriptions as simple as possible—no mint and green, just green. Let your toddler pick out all of the articles of clothing he or she wants to wear that day. As the child puts on each piece, ask him or her what color it is. If the child isn’t sure, say, “this is orange, Callie, just like your favorite shirt and the oranges you love to eat.” Nutrition is key to helping your child grow. Because healthy foods are often bright and beautiful colors, you can use meals as a way to teach your toddler his or her colors.  Ask your child what color a food is as you pass it to him or her. For example, say, “what color is the piece of broccoli?” If your child says, “green,” give him or her a bit of positive reinforcement with a, “great job, Luca!” You can extend the lesson by...

TL;DR in English: Use games. Play dress up. Identify foods by color. Sing a song. Color or paint pictures together. Compare identical objects of different colors.

Place your feet flat on the floor and try to lift each toe one by one. This may be difficult at first but try and lift each toe multiple times in a row at least once a day. This is an effective exercise for making the toes stronger and more flexible. While barefoot, take a few steps across the room lightly while only on your toes. This will give you a challenge in balance and also let you gauge how strong your toes really are. Use a slanted board for a more challenging toe lift exercise. Take an already slanted exercise board or put an object against a flat board to make it slanted (books, wood blocks). With the board against a door frame so you can lean slightly forward, step onto the board and rise up onto your tiptoes and then back down to your feet. While standing, first raise yourself onto the front of your feet. Stand on your tiptoes on one foot and slowly curl the toes under. Maintain balance with the opposite foot planted firmly on the ground. Hold each position for five seconds and repeat with the other foot. If curling the toes is too difficult, lift up to the balls of your feet and stay there for five seconds. Continue to lift to your toes if you feel comfortable.

TL;DR in English: Lift the toes. Take steps on your toes. Raise, point and curl your toes.

Wear clothes that make you feel good. If you dress how you want to (but still follow your school’s rules and your parents’ rules), you will look and feel amazing. Go to your favorite stores and get clothes that you like and you are comfortable in. If you are struggling to figure out what clothes you want to get, you can look for fashion inspiration. Movies, television shows, magazines, style blogs, and Pinterest are full of fashion inspiration. You might not have a say in what you get to wear to school because you have a uniform. Remind yourself that everybody has the same thing on! So if you don’t feel like you look your best in a uniform, remember that everyone probably feels the same way. If you are allowed to, add accessories like jewelry, fun socks, unique shoes, headbands, and hair ribbons to make your uniform stand out.

TL;DR in English: Wear clothes that make you feel confident. Get fashion inspiration. Be confident in a school uniform.

In this twist on the classic advent calendar, each day is stuffed into a jar. To find the gift you have to pull the day out of the jar, and read the clue. Save a jar from your kitchen for this project. Gather the following materials:  An empty jar Felt balls Decorative paper Pens or markers Paints Use paints and decorative paper to decorate your jar. Make sure you thoroughly wash your jar if you're saving it from your kitchen. Clean any labeling off the outside, and rinse any remaining food from the inside. Cut enough pieces of paper for each day in your calendar. Write a message on each strip of paper. Your messages can be activities, such as "go to the movies," or you can leave clues for gifts hidden in the house. The felt balls will make it easier to pull the messages out. After you glue the balls on to the paper, fold the paper to hide the message. Write the numbers on the outside of the paper strip for easy searching. Toss the messages in the jar and screw on the lid. Each day find the appropriate date, and see what your gift is!

A sponsored ad on Facebook, Instagram, or another high-profile promotional platform can be a rewarding investment for those with a little money to spend. Ads typically only cost a few dollars a day, and have the potential to draw hundreds of eyes to your SoundCloud profile. This may be just the boost you need if you’ve seen a slowdown in your number of new followers.  Most social media platforms offer adjustable pricing plans that allow users to decide how much they want to spend on an ad, as well as where and how their content will be displayed.  One of the biggest advantages of web-based advertising is that it ensures that your ads are being seen the kind of people who are likely to be interested in them. Ordinarily, any registered SoundCloud user can access the music on your profile for free. By creating a follow-to-download gateway, curious listeners will have to follow your page in order to receive an exclusive download link. It’s essentially a guarantee that everyone downloading is a subscriber.  Sites like TuneBoost or SoundCloudfollowers.org make it easy to add a follow-to-download gateway to your profile. Employing a follow-to-download gateway can be a useful trick for racking up followers if you’re already somewhat established, but if your visitors have never heard of you, they may decide that it’s not worth the extra effort. If you’re desperate to kickstart your music career and need a little momentum to get you going, consider trading cash for praise. There are whole companies that specialize in providing likes, follows, and other social signals to aspiring musicians as a way to help them build a buzz. A purchase of as little as $2 can get you up to 1,000 plays, as well as additional perks such as likes and reposts.  Hiring one of these services may not be the most honest approach, but it can be effective if you haven’t had much luck with other options. Keep in mind that a suspiciously high number of followers or plays with few likes or comments may look fishy to more discerning listeners.

TL;DR in English: Take out ad space. Set up a follow-to-download gateway for your channel. Pay for likes and followers.

A crisis hotline is meant for people who are suicidal and for those helping someone who is suicidal. The people on the other side of the line are trained volunteers who can help de-escalate situations, offer help and support, and be a listening ear. If you don't know where to start, you can call a crisis hotline and ask for help. Encourage the person who is suicidal to talk to someone on the phone, as volunteers are trained to help support people in crisis.  In the United States you can call a suicide hotline at 1-800-273-TALK. In Canada, call 1-800-273-8255.In the UK, the hotline number is 116 123. In Australia, call 13 11 14. It's not your responsibility to know what to do for the person. By calling for outside help, you can involve trained professionals to intervene and guide your next steps. If the person is about to cause harm to themselves or has already caused harm (such as cutting or taking pills), seek medical intervention. You can call an ambulance if the person needs immediate medical attention or if you think the person should be taken to the hospital for evaluation. If there is an immediate threat, call emergency services, such as 9-1-1 in the United States. The operator can connect you to a hospital, police station, EMT help, or other emergency service that you or the person may need. You may choose to get the person's family involved, whether for personal, medical, or psychological reasons. Involve the family if they live nearby and can come over quickly, can offer support over the phone to their loved one, and if the person is on good terms with their family. Family can offer support to the person and may know what to do. If you think involving the person's family would be beneficial, give someone a call.  Ask the person considering suicide who would be the best family member to call. Call someone you know will be supportive, such as the person's sibling, parent, aunt, or grandparent. You don't need to call the whole family. For some people, family involvement may make things worse, especially...

TL;DR in English: Call a crisis hotline. Get medical intervention. Contact the person's family. Call the person's mental health professional. Allow them control over treatment decisions.

In order to let your prospective employer know your distinctive value, you should first have a good grasp of the basics i.e. understanding your own value. You should do a small self-analysing session prior to actually starting to draft your value proposition letter. This pertains to the job title or titles you held while working with different employers. Expand further to describe the duties associated with each title. If you had been a project manager, your duties might have included initiating, planning, implementing and monitoring the project, supervising the project management team, coordinating with stakeholders etc. After listing your previous job titles with duties, start recording your accomplishments i.e. the achievements that set you apart from others at workplace. This is all about answering the following questions (in reference to the account executive job title):  Were your customers satisfied with the value your products and services rendered? Did you consistently win more business from the same clients? Did your clients communicate their satisfaction to other companies? Did they recommend you to others for more business? Upon achieving, were you entrusted to oversee more important clients? This means writing down all those projects that you either lead or you worked on in the capacity of a team member. Ask yourself questions like:  What key projects were you entrusted with that contributed to company’s growth? Did you complete the projects on time and within budget? Did you efficiently manage the projects? Did you perform in a leading capacity and supervise other project team members? This point talks about the valuable soft skills you demonstrated in relation to working with others at the organization. Here you can think about:  Were you in a capacity to work effectively with people from all areas of expertise? Did they like working with you? What might have happened to the project if you were not a part of the team? Did you share ideas and solve problems by working with others? Was there a...

TL;DR in English: Be aware of the importance of doing a self-evaluation. List roles you have filled. Record your accomplishments. Write down projects you have worked on. Think about how you have interacted with others in past employment experiences. Consider what you have learned from your past employment experiences. Think about recognition you have received.

Gather castor oil and your favorite essential oils. Add the essential oil to the castor oil. Mix and use the oil.

Challenge yourself to look at others and appreciate the things they can do and, more generally, to appreciate people for who they are. Understand that everybody is different and relish the chance you have to experience different people. You will still have your personal tastes, your likes and dislikes, but train yourself to separate your opinions from your fears and you will appreciate others more - you will be more humble as well. Being able to appreciate the talents and qualities of other people can also make you recognize qualities that you want to improve or attain within yourself. While competition can be healthy and stimulating, it's nearly impossible to be humble when we're constantly striving to be the "best" or trying to be better than others.  Instead, try looking at yourself more. Remember, the ultimate goal isn't to be better than anyone else, it's to be better than the person you used to be. When you focus your energy on improving yourself instead of comparing you to everyone else, you'll find that it is much easier to make yourself better since you don't have to worry about whether or not you're better or worse than anyone. Every individual is unique. Appreciate people for who they are as human beings, not for their skills and appearance in relation to yours. Although it is ultimately up to you to decide if you were right or wrong, it is a whole different thing to acknowledge that you make mistakes and that you're not always right. Somewhat more difficult however, is the ability to acknowledge that in many cases other people — even people who disagree with you — may be right. Deferring to your spouse's wishes, to a law you don't agree with, or even, sometimes, to your child's opinion takes your recognition of your limitations to a different level. Instead of simply saying you are humble and as a person you will make mistakes, you should also concentrate on living with that mindset - being humble is a way of life, not a one-time action. This is another way of appreciating others. Contemplate...

TL;DR in English: Appreciate the talents and qualities of others. Stop comparing yourself to others. Don't be afraid to defer to others' judgment. Seek guidance from written texts. Remain teachable. Help others. Go last. Compliment others Apologize Listen more than you talk.

Get out 2 bunches of radishes and rinse them to remove any dirt or grit. Set the radishes on a cutting board and trim off the greens. Set the greens aside to use as a garnish for the soup. Use a sharp knife to slice the trimmed radishes into 1/4-inch (1-cm) thick slices. You'll need 2 cups (230 g) of sliced radishes. Use your favorite radishes such as red, pink, purple, or daikon. Place the remaining 1/4 cup (30 g) of sliced radishes on a cutting board. Cut the radishes into long thin strips the size of matchsticks. Pour the soup into 4 serving bowls and sprinkle a little of the radish matchsticks on top. Dollop 1 tablespoon (12 g) of reduced-fat sour cream on top of each bowl of soup. Roughly chop the reserved radish greens and sprinkle them over the soup. Store the leftover soup in an airtight container. Refrigerate and use the soup within 3 days. Warm the soup for 1 to 2 minutes in the microwave or heat it on the stove for about 5 minutes.

Use your dominant hand to lift the wide end of the tie away from your chest, then cross it over the front of the narrow end (which you should hold in your off hand). Make the crossover within 3–4 in (7.6–10.2 cm) of the base of your neck, so that you create a fairly small “neck loop” above the crossover point and under your neck.

TL;DR in English: Cross the wide end of the tie in front of and over the narrow end.

Because castor oil is relatively inexpensive and has a long shelf life, some people like to use it as a carrier oil. Since it is somewhat sticky you may not want to use it for all purposes. It’s great for making skin treatments, however. The exact amount depends on how you want to use the oil. To make a massage oil or moisturizer, try adding 40-60 drops of the essential oil to 4 ounces of castor oil.  If you have a large bottle of castor oil, measure some out into a separate bottle, then add the essential oil to that. If you’re using the oil for aromatherapy or other everyday uses, you may want to increase the amount of essential oil you add to the carrier. Check the essential oil bottle’s label for recommendations. Use a wooden skewer, spoon, or another tool to stir the oils together. Mix thoroughly so that everything is evenly blended. Once you’re done, the oil is ready to use. You can store the oil in a glass bottle, preferably a dark colored or opaque one, with a tightly fitting lid. Castor oil can be stored for up to 1 year if kept in a cool, dry place.
