Choose a cardboard box with a lid. Cut a piece of sturdy cardboard for the base. Cut out four thin pieces of cardboard that will fit inside your box. Glue strips of cardboard into place. Decorate your box.

Tell your doctor or healthcare provider about any symptoms you have, including pain, bruising, swelling, or buckling of the knee. The doctor may test your knee’s range of motion by moving your leg back and forth. They may also take X-rays or an MRI of your knee.  Explain to your doctor what caused the injury as well as how long the pain has lasted. Knee hyperextension can cause injuries and tears to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Severe ligament injuries may need surgery. In most cases, your doctor will recommend a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), such as ibuprofen (such as Motrin or Advil) or naproxen (Aleve) to relieve the pain. These are available over the counter. In more severe cases, the doctor may prescribe you pain medication. Take the medication according to your doctor’s instructions. If you have a torn ACL or PCL, your doctor may recommend surgery to restore your torn ligament. This surgery will repair the ligament by grafting a sample of tissue from yourself or a donor into your injured knee. It can take between 2-9 months to recover from ACL or PCL surgery. At the beginning, you may need to walk on crutches. Once the pain has reduced and you are able to move more easily, your doctor may give you a referral to a physical therapist to begin a rehabilitation program. This program will help you regain flexibility and extension in your knee without injuring yourself further. For minor hyperextension issues, you may not need physical therapy. Your doctor may just recommend low-impact exercises for a few weeks.

TL;DR in English: Visit a doctor to examine the injury. Take an anti-inflammatory pain medication. Undergo knee surgery if you have a ligament tear. Get a referral to a physical therapist if necessary.

Before you mount your horse, make sure they are in a place where they will not be spooked. Move them away from buildings, fences, people, other horses, or trees before you mount the horse. Double-check your tack to make sure everything is secure, particularly the girth. You can also make sure the stirrups are properly adjusted to fit your feet. Mounting blocks are miniature sets of stairs used to help a rider mount a horse. Put the block on the horse’s left side, and place the reins over the horse’s head. Climb the stairs to easily get on your horse.  Mounting blocks also put less strain on the stirrups when you get on the horse, which decreases the chance of slipping. Mounting blocks also make your mount smooth, which in turn makes your horse less likely to spook. It is typical to mount a horse from the left side. Place the reins in your left hand so you can control the horse when you get in the saddle. The right side of the horse is known as the “off” side. It is helpful to place the heel of your boot at the edge of the stirrup. Hold onto the saddle to steady yourself, if you need to. Your foot should be completely inside the stirrup. Put your left hand on the saddle horn to help you get on the saddle. Then, jump up slightly to raise yourself onto your horse, and swing your right leg around the horse’s body. Place your right foot in the stirrup when you reach the other side. Move your right hand forward as you do this and take hold of the rein with your right hand. When both feet are securely in the stirrups and you have the reins in both hands, sit into the saddle carefully and gradually. You are now ready to ride your horse! If you drop into the saddle quickly, you could startle the horse and they could jump or buck.

TL;DR in English: Pick a safe spot to get onto your horse and check your tack. Use a mounting block if you need help getting on the horse. Stand to the left of your horse and grasp the reins with your left hand. Position your left foot in the left stirrup. Grab the saddle horn with your hand and pull yourself onto the saddle. Lower yourself slowly into the saddle.

Your doctor will do another STD test to confirm your positive results. They'll take a sterile sample to make sure it's properly tested. After the test, discuss your results with your doctor. You may be able to get free STD testing at your local health clinic or Planned Parenthood. If you have insurance, it may cover your STD test. If your results are positive, you'll need to treat your infection. Many STDs are completely curable, but diseases like HIV and herpes will need lifelong management. Talk to your doctor about the treatment you need, then take your medication as directed.  You'll likely receive an oral medication, but you might also receive a cream. If you have questions about your treatment, talk to your doctor. Try not to panic if you have an STD. Treatment will help you recover or live a normal life. Sometimes an STD test can produce a false-negative result, so it's best to see your doctor if you're having symptoms. They'll do a different STD test under sterile circumstances to find out if you have an STD. This will help you get a more definitive result. Tell your doctor that you're concerned that you have an STD. Even if your results come back negative, you may have a different medical condition. If you're at risk for STDs, it's best to get tested often. At a minimum, take an STD test at least once a year to make sure you're healthy. If you notice symptoms, get tested sooner. You should also get tested regularly if you're sharing needles.

TL;DR in English: See your doctor if your test results are positive. Get medical treatment from your doctor if you have an STD. Talk to your doctor if you have STD symptoms but test negative. Do an STD test annually if you're having sex with multiple partners.

Any cardboard box with a lid should work for this project. A shoebox would be the most ideal choice, yet if you want your box to be significantly different in size than a shoebox, feel free to use whatever you can find. From a separate sturdy cardboard box, cut out a square or rectangle to act as your false bottom for your secret box.  Measure the length and width of the cardboard you are using for your secret box. Refer to these measurements when cutting out your false bottom. Do not cut the exact measurements, because then the bottom will not be able to fit into the box. Also, don’t cut too much smaller than the original measurements because then the bottom will not snug into place. Make sure to cut two half circles on either side of the bottom, this is how you will lift the false bottom out of place with your fingers. Referring to the measurements of the cardboard you will be using for your box, cut out four thin strips of cardboard to act as the foundation to the false bottom and also the walls to the secret compartment. How much room you have in your compartment will be dependent on how tall or short you make these four pieces. Take the four cardboard strips you have cut out and glue them to the walls and bottom of your cardboard box. After they dry, place the false bottom piece of cardboard on top of the strips.   Check to see if the false bottom passes off as the real bottom of your box. If all looks good, lift up the false bottom and put your secrets in the hidden compartment, then cover it again with the false bottom. Since you used cardboard for this secret box, you can decorate it however you want!  Paint Construction paper Wrapping paper Stickers Markers or crayons

Whether you keep a more old-fashioned paper file or a digital file, make a single place for all of your financial records. Create subcategories that identify the type of bill or expense.  If you're keeping digital records, you may be able to use your email account to help organize your records. Use the same email address for all of your bills and create tags or filters to put those billing statements in categories. To reduce clutter in your inbox, open a separate account for bills and don't use that email address for personal email. You can also scan your bills and make PDFs to keep on your computer as a digital copy. Keeping your income statements and receipts in one place will make for fewer headaches come tax time. If you're keeping paper files, create a separate folder specifically for deductible expenses.  Within your file for deductible expenses include files with categories, such as home and office expenses, mileage and vehicle expenses, childcare expenses, and medical expenses. Go through your expense files at least once a month. If you paid a bill that you believe is deductible, move it to the deductible file (or make a copy of it and keep it in both places). Any document that has your signature, account number, medical, legal, or other identification information should be shredded rather than simply thrown in the trash. By leaving this information intact you are putting yourself at risk for identity theft.  If you don't own a shredder, you can buy a basic one online or at office supply stores for typically around $20 or $30. There are more expensive versions that may shred faster, or shred more documents at once, or that also shred CDs or credit cards. It's up to you whether a fancier shredder is worth the investment for you. You can also subscribe to a shredding service if you don't want to do all that work yourself. For example, in the US, office supply stores such as Staples or Office Depot will shred your documents for you at the rate of about $1 per pound. Just as you may do a spring cleaning...

TL;DR in English: Keep all of your statements and billing notices in one place. Include income statements and receipts for deductible expenses. Buy a shredder to use when disposing of financial documents. Purge records you no longer need once a year.

Remain calm and maintain a poker face by relaxing your face muscles. Avoid tightening your eyes, raising your eyebrows, or smiling. Even if you perform minute facial changes, these changes can tighten your facial muscles and give your opponents an idea of your hand. If you’re worried about giving away too much with your eyes, consider wearing dark sunglasses to help maintain your poker face. However, even with sunglasses, try to keep your eyes as still as possible. Movement in your eyes can give away your emotions by triggering muscles on the side of your face. Sometimes, smiling and acting confident, having conversations with your opponents, and putting on the show of being relaxed and easygoing can be just as deceptive as the best poker face. If you act positive, you might also be able to trick your opponents into folding prematurely! Nervous tics like knuckle cracking, nail biting, and fidgeting can reveal your emotions and therefore your hand to your opponents. Remain still and silent in order to throw them off. If that doesn’t work for you, fold your hands together or bring a stress ball and squeeze it constantly. Make sure the game you’re playing is real when you record; without stakes, you might not exhibit any problematic tics. Put the camera somewhere that’s easy to forget about, to help you relax and display your tics. Play back the video and look for any emotional tells, or ask a friend to guess what cards you had at any point in the video, and take note of what made them think the way they did. No matter what kind of poker face you choose, the most important thing is that you remain consistent. Whether you’re dealt the worst hand possible or the best hand you’ve ever seen, remaining cool and maintaining your poker face will throw off your opponents!

TL;DR in English: Relax your face and jaw. Use sunglasses to conceal your eye movements. Throw your opponents off by smiling. Master body language. Record yourself playing poker for practice. Remain consistent.

It is important to pace yourself as you read the poem so you have a chance to process the words and notice small details of the poem. To help slow you down, take deep breaths as you read. If you rush through the poem, you won’t fully experience the poem’s sound and rhythm. Make sure you say each syllable of each word, as this is important for the poem’s meter. Let each sound stand on its own so the poem’s rhythm is as close to the poet’s intent as possible.  Each syllable and sound will contribute to the rhythm of the poem. Focus on the sound and rhythm of the words. Poems can be tricky to read because the lines break in the middle of a sentence. Don’t stop at the line breaks, as this makes the poem sound choppy and difficult to understand. Instead, read through the line breaks and pause or stop at the punctuation.  Pause at commas or dashes. Fully stop for a moment when you reach a period or semicolon. If the poem doesn’t have punctuation, treat the line breaks as potential pause points. Decide how long of a pause feels right for this poem. Use the emotion evoked by the poet to enhance your reading of the poem. However, don’t try to act out the poem. A reading should let the poem speak for itself. For example, you might use a warm, wistful tone for a love poem, or inject a bit of rage when reading an angry poem.

TL;DR in English: Read slowly. Articulate each word in the poem. Pause at punctuation, not line breaks. Incorporate emotion into your reading, but don’t be dramatic.

Sew the bedsheet and lining fabric together along the bottom edge of the skirt (the wider part of the semicircle) with the bed sheet fabric facing inward. Remove the pins and flip the skirt inside out. Unpin the bottom 2 pins from the zipper so you can match the edges of the skirt to the edges of the shirt. Sometimes there will be some excess skirt material, so simply cut the excess fabric off of the skirt. Make sure the pleats are small so they don't make the flow of the skirt look boxy.  Make sure the pleats are evenly spaced around the skirt. User your vinyl tape measure to double-check. Grasp the fabric and fold it over to the right as though you were starting to make a fan. Pin the folded section of fabric down so that it will stay in position. Iron the pleat to make it precise. Sew the pleats using downward stitches. Stop at the point where you want the skirt to twirl freely. Make sure that the dress is folded inside-out to make your seam less visible. Sew the back seam of the skirt up to 1/4" (6 mm) above where the end of the zipper would fall.  Pin the zipper's final few inches down the back of the skirt, and sew it into place.

Don't be afraid to say, "I'm sorry, but I can't do this."

Compliment them first. Keep your text straightforward. Read the text aloud to catch harsh phrasing. Avoid "ghosting" them.

Try to schedule a time and make sure you both have set aside an hour or two to deeply discuss the topic. Undoubtedly, you will need plenty of time to discuss the nuances of the relationship and whether or not it is something you and your partner want to pursue.  Try to get rid of any distractions, like cell phones, or computers before starting the conversation. Make sure your partner understands that the time to talk should be fairly serious. You don't want your partner to be surprised. Try to gauge their opinion before progressing any further. If he/she reacts very poorly, do not try to continue pushing the topic. It is better to cease discussion of it immediately.  Make sure to express that there is nothing wrong with your current relationship but you want to try adding another dimension. Pay close attention to your partner's body language as it may convey emotions which words may not. Be honest and open as to your motives to express that you are not trying to devalue your partner's role in the relationship.  Explain clearly that this type of relationship is giving and not selfish. It's one that is not codependent. Be sure to express that the open relationship can be on a trial period. It is okay to stop it at any time if either partner feels uncomfortable with the situation.

TL;DR in English: Find the right time to discuss the topic. Bring up the topic of an open relationship and ask what your partner thinks about it. If your partner seems to react positively, introduce what an open relationship is and why you want it for the relationship.

It is easy to block out the words and start listening to the voices in your head. However, it may be wise to pay attention to exactly what your partner is saying. Consider the implications of his or her words. When all is said and done, consider your feelings on the topic: even if you've already thought it through, ask yourself in the moment whether you are ready to marry this person. Feelings can change when you confront the reality of a situation. Don't take too long. It's good to stay in touch with your feelings, but you might offend your partner if you keep him/her waiting. " Be genuine and straightforward. Make it clear that you are accepting. If you hesitate or joke about the situation, you may hurt or confuse your significant other. Let yourself be swept up in the moment. Let it be special! It may feel more authentic if you don't plan your reaction.  Let your emotions show how excited you are about marrying him/her. Say, "Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!" or "Oh my gosh – of course I'll marry you!" If your partner set up a special proposal (e.g. something with a theme, or something that plays on an inside joke between the two of you), consider responding in line with that theme. Have fun with it. Starting with things like "Oh, Sam..." may throw your partner off balance. Unclear words can confuse the proposer. You may need to repeat your answer – it's easy for the proposer miss your words in his/her haste. Repetition also affirms your answer and makes it feel more real. Thinking about this kind of commitment might make you feel excited, peaceful, or anxious. Whatever you are feeling, feel free to express it to your significant other. If you want to build a life with this person, you should share your emotions! There are times when it's better to play it cool, but accepting a proposal is not one of those times. Place your hand on your partner's hand, and show some affection toward him/her. This small gesture will show some support and give your partner a sense of closure. Don't be afraid to show your...

Pull the rubber bands down carefully, one at a time, to avoid bending the flaps. Now when you load a small projectile into the outer tube and draw back on the plunger using the pencil as a grip, it will sail across the room!  Keep in mind that pulling too hard on the slingshot may break it—after all, the it is made of cardboard. Your homemade slingshot can launch marshmallows, foam pom-poms, or other soft projectiles for some good, clean fun.

Communicating by text may be the only way if you met this person through online dating, but take special care to compliment them first. Sometimes tone doesn't quite translate well through text. Paying them a compliment first will prevent your message from taking a harsh tone.  You might write, for example: "I enjoyed going out with you last week! You're an amazing hiker. That said, I just didn't feel the spark that would make me interested in a second date." Don't sugarcoat your words. Over-flattering them may give the person false hope. Write one or two compliments, then move on. Having this conversation through text can make the message long and rambling. Your recipient will understand you best if you keep the text simple. Aim for 3-5 sentences, at most. You might say, for example: "Hey, I had a fun time getting to know. Right now, though, I'm not interested in another date. Hope all is well!" Running through your text aloud can limit the disconnect in tone between texting and talking in-person. Consider how the words feel when said aloud and if there is a kinder way of phrasing your feelings, if your response seems cold.  Instead of texting, "Thanks, but you're not my type, buddy," for example, you could text, "You are a sweetheart. I'm glad we went out, but I think it would be best if we didn't schedule a second date." Adding an emoji, like a smiley face, can help make the text feel less brusque. Maturity is important when letting them know over text, as is treating their feelings seriously. If they ask you about a second date over text, respond to them directly. Deleting the text and forgetting about them might seem tempting, but you risk hurting the other person.

TL;DR in English:


Acknowledge your specific fears. Understand your triggers. Question the power the fear holds over you. Imagine the outcome you desire.

so you look and smell great. Shower daily, wash your face every day, and brush your teeth twice a day. Put on deodorant before you leave the house, and do your laundry every week or so. Doing these things will help you look and smell awesome so you can flirt with confidence.  In addition, it’s a good idea to get a haircut every 4-6 weeks and cut your nails regularly.  Shave 1 or more times a week to keep your skin smooth and touchable. You don’t have to wear sexy clothing to feel confident and cute in your outfits. Pick a button-down, jeans, dress, skirt, or blouse that boosts your confidence. Fill your wardrobe with awesome items that make you feel great so you can feel fun and flirty in any outfit.  Put on a form-fitting white tee and a pair of tailored, dark-washed jeans for a casual yet playful look. Wear a pencil skirt with a cream-colored lace blouse for a feminine style that you can play up for work or for a night out. If you wear very revealing clothing, you may seem desperate rather than flirty. Be tasteful with the amount of visible cleavage, for example. In particular, showing off your neck is a flirty gesture that may get the interest of your crush. Choose tops with a “V”-cut to show off your neckline, and try wearing a choker-style necklace to draw attention to your neck. This is an easy way to add a subtle flirty touch. Styling your hair in a sexy way can instantly boost your confidence level. Tousled waves are flirty because they can mimic that sexy, bedhead style. High ponytails are fun because you can show off your facial features and neck. You can feel flirty and cute with nearly any hairstyles, but search online for inspiration if you want ideas.  To make tousled waves, try braiding your hair and sleeping with them in to make instant curls. You can also use a curling iron to curl all of your hair. Then, use a blowdryer or your hands to tousle the curls into soft, relaxed waves. For a high ponytail, comb all of your hair back and grasp it at the crown of your head. Secure your hair with an...

The proper stance is the foundation to your shooting technique. Keep your feet hip/shoulder width distance apart and relax your knees. Your hips, shoulders, and elbow should be facing forward. Your body should be aligned no matter where you are around the post. Stand close to the ring.  Have someone else watch you as you practice your stance. Another person can see any errors and help you make adjustments. Practice your stance in different positions around the post. Make sure your feet are always pointed towards the post. Hold the ball with your dominant/shooting hand and keep your fingers soft.  Hold the ball as high as you can in both hands. Use your other hand for balance, but do not apply any pressure to the ball with this hand.  Your fingers should be touching the ball, but leave a little bit of space between the palm of your hand and the ball.  If you are a younger player or a new player, it may be easier to hold the ball with two hands. Holding with two hands will give you more power when you are shooting. Once the ball is firmly in your hands, hold the ball high above your head. Your elbow should be by your forehead. You should not be able to see the ball when it is above your head. Bend your elbows and your knees at the same time. Keep your elbow by your forehead and only move the top part of your arm.  Straighten your elbow and your knees and then release the ball.  Toss the ball up in an up-and-over motion toward the ring. Aim at the center point above the net as you shoot and flick your hand forward with your shooting arm.  It is important that you bend your knees before you release the ball because the power of your shot comes from your knees. Flicking your hand will cause the ball to spin backwards after you release it. This helps with the accuracy of your shot. Keep your back straight as you release the ball.  If you are shooting with two hands, both of your hands will go through the shooting motion. Think of your elbow as a lever when you are shooting and only move the top portion (i.e....

TL;DR in English: Position your body to shoot. Place the ball in your hands. Shoot the netball. Stand a little further back, bend your knees and jump then throw to perfect your technique from further away. Remember the BEEF acronym.

Affordable, everyday black clothing can make a striking impression. Black somehow makes casual outfits look "put together." Best of all, since most people wear these sorts of clothes often in their day-to-day lives, you'll be getting a good value out any clothes you end up using.   Examples: Black t-shirts, jeans, shorts, socks, skirts, belts, baseball caps, tennis shoes, etc.  Notes: Try to avoid a 100%-black outfit when you're wearing casual clothing. One-color outfits can make your features blend together, giving you a "formless" look. For instance, a black t-shirt looks great with blue or grey jeans, but if you're wearing it with black jeans, you might use a different-colored belt to break up the monotony. Black is perfect if you're trying to make a "bookish" or "artistic" impression. Use a single eye-catching black accessory to lend a little artsy flair to outfit or wear a black academic-inspired outfit to show that you're busy pondering life's deeper questions.   Examples: Black turtlenecks, flannel shirts, older blazers, scarves, boots, glasses, jewelry, berets, accessories, makeup, etc.  Notes: Quirky and antique-style accessories go great with these types of outfits. For example, an out-of-fashion scarf from the 1970s suddenly looks deliberate and fashionable on an intellectual with a black beret at the coffee shop. When it comes to formal occasions, always bet on black. "Nice" black clothes are a great investment because they're appropriate for almost any formal get-together, from weddings to funerals. Black formal wear is stately, elegant, attractive, and respectful all at once — you'll never be sorry to wear it when you're enjoying the finer things in life.  Examples: Black suits, dresses, tuxedos, veils, earrings, ties, scarves, cufflinks, dress shirts, dress pants, leather shoes, high heels, etc. Believe it or not, there's some scientific truth to the old saying "black is slimming." Black outfits absorb light, rather than reflect it, so they tend to make it hard to see the wrinkles, lines, and...

TL;DR in English: Wear black casual clothes for a cool, understated look. Wear black semi-formal clothes for an intellectual look. Wear black formal wear for any serious occasion. Wear form-fitting black clothes for a sleek look. Use distressed, "punky" black outfits as a show of youthful rebellion. Use black-accented accessories for a distinguished, versatile look.

It's easy to ignore or deny your fears, even to yourself. But courage can't come into play unless you have a fear to face down. By owning your feelings you've taken the first step toward gaining control over the situation.  Name your fear. Sometimes fear makes itself known immediately, clearly, and other times it’s more difficult to name those anxious feelings lurking in the back of your mind. Let your fear rise to the surface and give it a name. It may be concrete (like a fear of cats) or situational (like a fear of being called on in class). Don’t judge your fears. Acknowledge what comes up with no attachment to “good” or “bad.” Is it something obvious, like the sight of a snake on a trail? Maybe passing your career counselor's office door sends your mind into a downward spiral when you walk down the corridor in your high school. Figure out everything that triggers your fear. The more you can understand your fear, the better. Does your fear cause you to stay in bed instead of getting up and going to a class you're afraid of failing? Do you avoid visiting your family in another state because you don't want to get on a plane? Figure out exactly what power your fear has over your mind and behavior. Now that you better understand your fear, think about what exactly you want to change. Think about yourself experiencing life without your fear. How do you feel?  For example:  If your fear is commitment, imagine yourself happily with a partner. If your fear is heights, imagine yourself conquering a tough hike. Connect with the feeling of accomplishment. If your fear is spiders, imagine yourself seeing a spider and feeling neutral.

This is a common myth held by students. Particularly if you’re a slow reader, you may find it more effective to read the beginning and end of the chapter, along with pull-outs (information placed in a box, graph, or other attention-grabbing area on the page) and anything bolded or italicized in the text. Another common mistake students make is to read their textbook once and then never look at it again. A better strategy is to practice layered reading.  On your first read-through, skim the material. Determine what the main idea or goal of the text is (often signaled by the chapter title and subheadings), and mark any places that you didn’t feel as though you understood well. Read headings, subheadings, and other organizational elements. Textbook authors often construct their chapters so that it is very clear what the goal of each section is. Use this to your advantage. Read for more detail in later readings. Sometimes, students will just move their eyes along the page again and again and feel like they’re not getting anything from their “reading.” Reading is an active process: you need to be engaged, paying attention, and thinking about what you read. While it’s tempting to break out the rainbow of highlighters when you read through a chapter, avoid this temptation. Research has shown that highlighting actually can hamper your reading because you may feel tempted to highlight every single thing you feel is important without thinking critically about the ideas presented. If you must highlight, wait until you’ve completed your first read-through, and use the highlighter sparingly to point out only the most important ideas. It can be tempting to just read past words or elements you don’t understand in an effort to “just get it done.” This actually damages comprehension. If a dense textbook on Marxist economics has terms that you don’t initially understand, don’t just read on: stop what you’re doing, look up the word, and understand it before continuing.

TL;DR in English: Understand that you do not have to read every single word. Plan to read more than once. Understand that reading is not the same as studying. Know that highlighting is not ideal for first-time reading. Understand that you may need to look things up while reading.

This includes electronics, gems, and jewelry, as these are the most pledged items at pawn shops. One of the best ways is to go online to an auction site like eBay and study what people pay for various goods. This will give you a good idea of the general retail value of items at a certain moment in time.  Bear in mind that over the course of time, trends change, so you'll need to remain up to date with current retail values in order to assess correctly. You can also visit other pawn shops in your area to see how they are pricing items. Apply for an internship or a job at a local pawn shop. This will allow you to learn how professionals assess goods, as well as how they determine what percentage of the assessed value to pay in the event a customer wants to sell an item. This is a strategic plan that will guide you in achieving your goals for the business. You can find more details about how to write a plan  here, but you will want to include:  Your business concept: The focus here is on describing your business and the market for your products and services. Market research: Market research is critical, as it describes the nature of the market you are entering into. Identify who your major competitors are, who your target market is, and the preferences and needs of your target market. A marketing plan: This should describe how you plan on addressing the needs of your market, how you will communicate with customers, and how you will advertise your shop. An operations plan: This will describe your operations on a day to day basis. It would include, for example, how you will make loans, how you will acquire items to sell, how you will price items and what interest rate you will charge for loans. A financial plan: This would outline how you will finance your business, what your expected costs are, and projections as to your revenue. Using your financial plan   determine your projected annual expenses and gross income. You'll need to have enough capital to cover both your operating expenses and your customer loans....

Sweet persimmons are typically tomato-shaped, and often sold under the name Fuyu in the West. If your persimmon does not match this description, read the ID guide above. You won't enjoy it if you follow these instructions with the wrong type of persimmon. Sweet persimmons taste best when firm and crisp. A ripe persimmon is orange or deep orange-red.  A yellow persimmon is edible, but not fully ripe. Do not eat an unripe green persimmon, which will always taste astringent.  You can eat it overripe as well, with a spoon. This tastes different, but you might like it. Rub the persimmon clean under running water. The peel is edible, so wash it thoroughly. Using a sharp knife, cut off the leaf-like flower and stem. Slice the persimmon into thin wedges or slices, as you would a tomato. The skin is edible and usually thin. If you prefer to peel it, briefly immerse the whole fruit in hot water. Remove with tongs, then peel. This is the same process as blanching tomatoes. A sweet persimmon should be firm and crisp, with a sweet flavor. If there are seeds, remove and discard them.  Try adding lemon juice, or cream and sugar.  For more uses, check out the recipes below.

Leave your door open or closed — whichever makes you feel more comfortable. Leave a light on as you try to fall asleep. Find ways to self-soothe.

If you're treating a stain on a piece of fabric or clothing, stretch the fabric over a large bowl. Position the stain in the center and wrap a rubber band around the outside of the bowl to hold the fabric in place. Bring a kettle of water to a boil and slowly pour the hot water through the stain and into the bowl.  The hot water can loosen the stain and force it out of the fabric. If you're cleaning a fabric stain on a couch, you'll need to remove the cover or cushion to get to the stain. Get out a small bowl and pour in 1/4 cup (60 ml) of gentle dishwashing liquid. Stir in 1/4 cup (60 ml) of hydrogen peroxide until it's combined. Apply the solution to the stain and let it just soak in for 20 minutes. Once the stain looks like it's lifting, wash the material in the washing machine. Only use the brightening dish soap solution on light fabrics since it can lighten dark fabrics. Another way to lift stubborn stains is to coat the stain with white vinegar. Take a few spoonfuls of liquid laundry detergent and rub the soap in. This should loosen the stain. Wash the fabric in hot water to completely remove the stain. If you don't have very many materials to make a deep cleaning solution, just spray club soda mixed with equal parts of white vinegar over the stain. Use paper towels or an old towel to blot up the mixture. You can repeat spraying and blotting until you see the stain lifting.

TL;DR in English: Pour boiling water through the material. Apply a brightening dish soap solution. Apply vinegar and liquid laundry detergent. Spray and blot up a club soda and white vinegar mixture.

They are great hunters and natural rat predators. You will still be killing the rats indirectly but it won’t cause them great pain. This is just a way of initiating the natural cycle. A good cat will clean up your rat infestation in just a few weeks. Just remember a cat will not be able to catch a rat that is in the attic or behind a wall. You will know where they have been by rat droppings you notice or by the holes chewed in walls, food boxes, insulation and other places in your home. This is where you’ll want to leave the traps. You can purchase these from hardware stores and other retailers if you decide you want to kill the rats. Be aware that rat poison does not kill a rat instantly, it can take up to a week to kill the rat. The rat will be in immense pain during this week, so keep that in mind.  Read the instructions and cautions carefully. Most rat poisons include warfarin, which causes internal bleeding and other drugs that kill rats, but can also be harmful to pets and people. Check the traps regularly. A rat corpse will give off an unpleasant odor if you do not remove it immediately. Traditional snapping traps are much more humane than rat poison, as it should kill the rat immediately. However, in some cases it can only severely injure the rat, in which case you should put it out of its misery. These are flat, sticky pieces of wood that trap rats until you can remove them. Once again, make sure that you only set glue boards if you intend to kill the rats. These rats are not going to survive, as there’s no way to get them off the glue board. Some rats will chew off their feet or legs in order to escape from the trap and others will get their head trapped in the glue and suffocate. It is not the most humane way to get rid of rats but it will work. If you find a rat in a glue trap that has not been killed, you'll have to stomp on it with a boot to kill it. It's either that or hitting it on the head with something hard like bat. Do whatever you can stomach and then toss the rat in an outdoor trash can.

TL;DR in English: Get a cat. Identify the rats' feeding and nesting places. Leave rat poison or traditional snapping rattraps in rat-infested areas. Use glue boards to get rid of rats.

There are two parts to all fractions: the numerator, which is the number above the line, and the denominator, which is the number below the line. While the denominator tells you how many parts a whole has been broken into, the numerator tells you how many pieces of that whole there are. In the fraction ½, for instance, the numerator = 1 and the denominator = 2, and the fraction is one-half. When two or more fractions have a common denominator, it means they all have the same number as a denominator, or that they all represent wholes that have been broken into the same number of pieces. Fractions with a common denominator can be added together very easily, and the resulting fraction will have the same denominator as the original fractions. For instance:  The fractions 3/5 and 2/5 have a common denominator of 5. The fractions 3/8, 5/8, and 17/8 have a common denominator of 8. To add fractions together when they have a common denominator, you simply add all the numerators together and rewrite the sum over the original denominator.  In the fractions 3/5 and 2/5, the numerators are 3 and 2. In the fractions 3/8, 5/8, and 17/8, the numerators are 3, 5, and 17. In the example of 3/5 + 2/5, add the numerators 3 + 2 = 5. In the example 3/8 + 5/8 + 17/8, add the numerators 3 + 5 + 17 = 25 Remember to use the same common denominator, since the number of parts that the whole is divided into remains the same, and you are just adding the number of individual pieces.  The fractions 3/5 + 2/5 = 5/5 The fractions 3/8 + 5/8 + 17/8 = 25/8 Sometimes a fraction can be put into simpler terms, and this includes dividing it to get a number that’s not a fraction or decimal. In the example 5/5, this fraction can be solved easily because any fraction where the numerator and denominator are the same will equal 1. Think about it like a pie that’s been cut into three pieces. If you eat all three pieces of the pie, then you’ve eaten one whole pie. Any fraction can be converted from a fraction by dividing the numerator by the denominator,...

TL;DR in English: Recognize the numerator and denominator. Determine the denominator. Locate the numerators. Add the numerators. Rewrite the fraction with the new numerator. Solve the fraction if necessary. Reduce the fraction if you can. Convert improper fractions to mixed numbers if necessary.

If leaving your door open lets in a little light or helps you feel less claustrophobic, for example, then leave your door open to help make your surroundings more comfortable as you try to fall asleep. If closing the door as you fall asleep helps you feel more secure, then leave it closed as you try to fall asleep. Anything you can do to make yourself feel comfortable and safe as you fall asleep will contribute to your ability to fall asleep after seeing a movie that scares you, etc. Scary themes in film, television, etc. are often associated with the dark. If you leave a light on as you try to fall asleep, you can help mitigate your fears and fall asleep more easily. Too much light while you sleep, though, can actually prove detrimental to your health, so it's best not to make a habit of it.  Leave a night light or small lamp on. This may give you reassurance without providing too much light and keeping you awake. A television can provide soft light as you fall asleep too, even if you mute the sound and simply leave the television on for the light it gives off. Think about if there are any items you have or rituals that you find comforting. A lucky rabbit's foot you can rub, for instance, or a favorite blanket or stuffed animal to snuggle. Try petting your dog or cat, or hanging a dream catcher. Or maybe you find the act of making a cup of sleepy time tea and sipping it calming and comforting. Identify these self-soothing behaviors (you may need to experiment a little) and use them to help comfort and calm yourself. If you are spiritual, you could keep something that is part of your religion nearby, such as beside the bed or under your pillow. Some items might include a rosary or crucifix, etc.

Use a sharp paring knife to pierce the spaghetti squash in 10 to 15 places, spacing the cuts evenly apart.  It is very important that you pierce the squash before microwaving it. Otherwise, it could overheat and explode in the microwave. Piercing the squash can be difficult, and you may need to use a forceful, stabbing motion to successfully work the knife through the exterior. Work carefully, however, so that you do not accidentally cut yourself in the process. Do not follow the preparation instructions for cutting the squash. The squash should be soft enough to pierce with a fork when done. If your microwave does not have a rotating turntable inside, rotate the squash 180 degrees after 5 or 6 minutes to make sure that it cooks evenly. You do not need to it to be cool to the touch, but allowing the squash to cool down for a few minutes will give it time to release some of the hottest steam and liquid through the cut marks. Use a sharp knife to cut the squash open lengthwise, from top to bottom.  Wear oven mitts or hold the squash with a towel as you do this. It will still be hot. Cutting the squash open should be very easy. If it isn't, you may need to microwave it for another 2 to 3 minutes. Dig the seeds out with a metal spoon. The stringy pulp connected to the seeds should also come out, but be careful to avoid scraping out strands of flesh.

TL;DR in English: Pierce the squash instead of cutting it. Microwave the squash for 10 to 12 minutes. Let it cool for several minutes. Cut the squash open. Scrape out the seeds.

Maine Coons love to be around people, so you will need to make sure that you can accommodate your Maine Coon’s social needs. Your Maine Coon may even try to follow you around the house and participate in your daily routine.  Try to set aside some time to just sit and pet your Maine Coon every day. Most Maine Coons are not fond of sitting on laps. Your Maine Coon may prefer to sit next to you while you pet her. Maine Coons are well-known for their excellent mouse catching skills, so try to provide your Maine Coon with toys that will stimulate these skills. Try sticking to toys that stay low to the ground. Some good possible toy choices for your Maine Coon include:  fur mice crinkly ball toys jingle ball toys electronic mouse toys a laser pointer aimed at the ground Cats need their claws and they also need to scratch. The problem is that sometimes cats will try to scratch things that they should not scratch. To prevent your Maine Coon from scratching things he shouldn’t, provide some scratching posts for your Maine Coon.  Corrugated cardboard and rope-wrapped wooden posts make great scratching posts.  Try placing a few of these around your house. If you catch your Maine Coon scratching something he shouldn’t, do not yell at him or hit him. Just gently pick him up and take him over to one of his scratching posts. Try rubbing a catnip on your Maine Coon’s scratching posts. This may attract him to the posts and make him more likely to use them. Your Maine Coon should always have access to clean litter boxes. Fill up the boxes with two inches of fine-grained, clay, clumping cat litter. Scoop out the litter boxes daily and change the litter at least once per week.  Always make sure that you have one more litter box than your total number of cats. For example, if you have three cats, then you need to have four litter boxes. Cats can learn how to use a litter box if you show them where the box is located. After you get your Maine Coon, take her to the litter box so she will know where to find it.

TL;DR in English: Spend lots of time with your Maine Coon. Give your Maine Coon some mouse-like toys. Put up some scratching posts. Keep a couple of litter boxes for your Maine Coon.

” If you have any specific honors or awards you earned while in the military, place them in a section separate from your relevant experience. This will make your resume feel less cluttered. List any honors, achievements, or awards by title. You can also include the date by year that you received the award. For example, you may write under the Honors heading, “Good Conduct Medal (2009)” or “Achievement Medal (2012).” ” If you received training in computer software or programs while in the military, include this information in this section. If you learned how to use radio frequencies, coding, or other technical skills, note this as well. This will let employers know you have these skills in the event it is needed for a position or job. For example, you may write under the Skills and Training heading, “Proficient in Microsoft Word and Excel” or “Trained in computer programming software.” You do not need to provide graphic details about your experiences in active combat or while deployed, as this can end up cluttering your resume. Only provide details that you think employers will find relevant to the position you are applying for. Stay away from details that may feel unrelated to the position. For example, you may list operations or missions you worked on in your resume if you feel it illustrates important skills like leadership or conflict-resolution. However, you do not need to provide more than 1-2 key details about the operation or mission on your resume.

Once the left and right eye pictures are open, convert them both to grayscale by clicking on the 'Image' menu bar and selecting 'mode' then 'grayscale'. Assign the left eye image red, green and blue channels by going back to the 'Image' menu bar and selecting 'mode' then 'RGB'(the image will still appear gray). Do not repeat this step for the right eye image. Now you are ready to merge the left and right images. To begin, make sure the left eye image is still selected 'Open the channels display menu' by clicking on the 'Window' menu bar and choosing 'channels'. Press the shift key to highlight both at the same time.  An alternative to this step is to use only the blue channel instead of the blue and green when pasting into the left eye image. Important: only the blue and green channels should be shaded blue. At this stage it doesn't matter which boxes to the left of the channels show eyeballs (eyeballs indicate which channels are displayed). Go back to the right eye image, select the whole thing (go to 'Select' menu bar, then press 'all' OR press Ctrl+A) and copy it (go to 'Edit' menu bar, then press 'copy' or press Ctrl+C). Switch back to the left eye image and paste (go to 'Edit' menu bar, then press 'paste' or press Ctrl+V). An eyeball should appear in all four channel boxes. At this point, you should see a blurred red and blue picture. You are almost done. But first the left and right eye images need to be better aligned. Start by highlighting only the red channel in the channels display menu (it should be shaded blue). The next step is crucial because it allows the red-tinted picture to be shifted over while the blue-tinted picture is still visible. Go to the RGB channel and click only on the square box to the left. An eyeball should appear in all four boxes, but only the red channel should be shaded. Pick a point in the center of the picture to match up; for example, if a person is your subject, eye pupils are a good target. Zoom in on the target by selecting the magnifying glass icon in the tool bar...

If you do not have one, you can use a large skillet with a long handle and deep sides. Make sure everything is at the proper temperature and check that there are matches or a lighter near by.  For fruit dishes, use a preheated shallow pan.  For meat dishes, use a cast iron or enamel roasting pan. Plate and serve your dish immediately after the flames die down. No cooling time is needed, meaning nothing will stand between you and your delicious meal.

True friends accept you for who you are. When you're with your friends, you should feel comfortable wearing clothes you like, sharing your opinions, and being honest about your interests. Consider if you feel comfortable around your friends or if you feel pressured to be someone you’re not.  For instance, if you find yourself hiding things from your friends or doing things you don't like doing, you might not be able to be yourself with them. You might not always agree with your friends. However, a good friend will accept that you have differences and not make you feel like you can’t express them. A good friend will treat you with kindness. Consider the way they talk to you, their tone of voice, and whether or not they make you feel good about yourself. Make sure that your friends are treating you well. Otherwise, they might not be a good fit for you. It’s okay for your friend to point out mistakes you made or to disagree with you. However, they shouldn’t be mean about it. For instance, a good friend might say something like, “I’ve noticed that you’ve been making bad grades lately. Is something going on?” They shouldn’t say, “Wow! Your grades are really tanking. Study much?” Friends care about your thoughts and feelings, so they’ll really listen to you. When you’re talking, check to see if they’re engaged in the conversation. Make sure they’re nodding along and seem to understand what you said. This is a sign that they truly care about you and are a good friend.  When you’re having a conversation, they should be totally focused on you, not their phone or what they want to say. Make sure you’re also listening to them when they’re speaking. A good friend will lift you up and make you feel happy, while a toxic friend can leave you feeling drained. After you spend time with your friends, consider how you’re feeling. If you feel happy and excited to see them again, they’re probably good friends. If you feel drained or anxious, they could be a bad match for you.  If your friend acts like an energy vampire or draws...

TL;DR in English: Decide if you can be yourself around them. Pay attention to how they treat you. Notice if they actively listen to you. Observe how you feel emotionally after being around them. Determine if you have similar goals and values. Make sure you can rely on them to be there for you.

Hydrogen peroxide may whiten teeth, but you need to use it with caution. To try this method, mix 2 parts of baking soda with 1 part of 1% to 3% hydrogen peroxide to form a paste. Brush your teeth with the mixture for 1 to 2 minutes, then rinse with water.  Make sure you use hydrogen peroxide with a concentration of 3% or less. Brush with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda once a week at most. Stop brushing and rinse your mouth with cool water if you feel a burning sensation. Don’t use this method if you have receding or sensitive gums, as hydrogen peroxide can cause irritation and damage exposed roots. Squeeze your regular toothpaste onto your toothbrush, then sprinkle a pinch of baking soda on top. Brush your teeth as you normally would for 2 minutes with soft, circular motions. Then spit and, if you need to rinse away white residue, swish your mouth with a little water.  As with a baking soda and water paste, brush with baking soda and toothpaste in moderation. Try it every other day for 1 to 2 weeks at first, then brush with baking soda once or twice a week at most. You can also purchase a toothpaste that already contains baking soda. In the United States, look for a product that carries the ADA (American Dental Association) Seal of Acceptance, and use it as directed.  If you have sensitive teeth or dental erosion, avoid using toothpastes that contain baking soda or are branded as whitening products. Combine 1 teaspoon (6 g) of baking soda and 1 cup (240 mL) of water in a glass, then stir the mixture until the baking soda is evenly distributed. Take a sip, gargle for about 30 seconds, then spit out the mixture. Repeat the steps until you’ve finished the entire glass.  The baking soda rinse won't erode your teeth, so it's safe to gargle with it daily. Gargling with a baking soda rinse whitens your teeth indirectly. Baking soda neutralizes acids, so it helps fight dental erosion caused by acidic foods and beverages. It can also help fight bacteria that cause decay and promote good bacteria that create a...

Determining the latitude with the sun can only be done when it is at its highest point. Check your watch or you may use the method of creating a quadrant and placing a stick in the ground, at the very southern end of a north-south line. It’s noon as soon as the shadow of the stick crosses the north-south line. Use a plumb line to ensure that the stick is vertical. A plumb line is exactly as it sounds: a line with any type of plumb attached to it. Gravity will ensure that the plumb creates a vertical line. You may only set up your measurements knowing north and south. Mark north and south with a line running along the ground. Set up a quadrant with its aiming beam parallel to this line. The aiming beam -- or hands of the cross -- should be centered on the support beam-- or body of the cross -- so that it can pivot up and down. There should be 4 nails at the hands of the cross, each only pounded far enough to keep it stable. There should be 2 nails at either end of the face of the cross and 2 nails at either end of the top of the hands of the cross. Center a protractor at the pivot point. Suspend the plumb line also from this pivot point. Once noon, line up the nails on the aiming beam with the sun. Do not look directly at the sun but rather use the shadows of the nails to find the correct position. Move the aiming beam up and down so that the two shadows from the nails move closer together and create a single shadow on the ground. Once the beam is aimed correctly, use the protractor to measure from the vertical plumb line to the portion of the aiming beam closest to it. Keep the horizon at 90 degrees  as you make your measurements. Your reading will only be correct in both the spring and autumn equinoxes that fall on March and September 21 respectively. If you are taking measurements around December 21, or midwinter, subtract 23.45 degrees from your reading. In contrast, add 23.45 degrees if you are taking measurements around midsummer, June 21.  The measurements are not completely accurate, other than spring...

TL;DR in English: Make sure that it is noon. Use a compass to establish north and south. Create a quadrant, or cross, using two pieces of wood. Align the sighting nails of the quadrant with the sun. Use the protractor to measure the small angle between the beam and the plumb line. Understand that the time of year plays into the accuracy of your reading.

There isn’t a specific number of images a portfolio should include and opinions about this tend to vary. However, most professionals agree that less is more. Twenty images should be the maximum; closer to ten is preferable.  Remember, each of these shots should strongly represent your skill level. The execution of each shot should be close to perfect and there should be no visible flaws in any of them. Examine your set closely. Think about any steps you need to take to perfect your chosen images. Perhaps you need to tweak a negative for a better print or crop something slightly differently. Complete the computer or darkroom work necessary to finalize your series of photos. As you tweak the images, don't forget that a consistent theme should be apparent and the series of images should fit together in a cohesive way. Don't change the images so much that you lose cohesiveness. There is no “right” way to order your images. However, the first image in your portfolio should be one of the strongest. You want the first photo to make a clear statement. It also needs to create enough interest to make the viewer want to continue looking through the series. Arrange the rest so that the colors, tones and moods compliment and play off one another.  It might help to think about arranging them in a way that tells a coherent story or evokes a particular mood. The final image should appropriately sum up the rest of the series. Avoid crowding the “best” images at the front and then padding the end out with weaker images. There should be no weak images in the group. Your portfolio is more than just a handful of great photos. The way you present them is extremely important. A bound book of selected works is the most traditional option. The book you arrange them in should represent the contents inside. Choose techniques, borders and backing sheet colors that enhance the collection. Make your prints on good paper.  Be consistent and choose either matte or glossy – do not include a combination. Package everything as attractively and...

TL;DR in English: Settle on ten to twenty final images. Tweak your final images if necessary. Organize the images into a particular sequence. Use high quality materials. Put the photos into your portfolio. Add the finishing touches. Consider an online portfolio.

Notify them of anyone doing anything dangerous, improper or illegal. If they aren't allowed you should use common sense and discretion before attempting to take photographs.  They may ask you to stop, confiscate your property or detain you for a portion of the show. You may be able to plead ignorance once but don't abuse the warning. Apologize, put your camera away and don't let them see it again. Most security or staff would prefer to warn you than throw you out but don't push your luck by ignoring the warning. Video is usually more frowned upon than pictures and bring about swifter actions by the staff. Photos taken with camera phones are still photos. They may confiscate your phone. If you are able to get it back that night, it may be damaged, missing the sim card, in a box with 20 other phones that look just like yours and not available until an hour or more after the show.

Supportive shoes are especially important when you are doing an activity that causes your foot to strike against the ground, such as walking or running. Look for thick-soled shoes that provide a stable base. The shoes should fit well and offer arch support.  It’s best to shop when your feet are sore and puffy, such as at the end of a long workday. This ensures that your shoes won't be too tight. If you can, get your gait analyzed at a running store or your podiatrist’s office. This can help you find the best shoes for you. Orthotic inserts, which don’t require a prescription, are made support your arches and lessen the impact of walking or exercise. They can also prevent injury. You should also use arch inserts and wraps to give extra support to your feet, especially if your shoes don’t have built-in arch support.  You may need to trim some inserts to fit your shoes. If you only buy 1 pair, you’ll need to switch them between pairs of shoes, unless you always wear the same shoes. You may not need inserts for athletic shoes that have good arch support and firm mid-soles. You can find generic orthotics over-the-counter at most department and athletic stores. You can also buy them online. if you are overweight. Carrying extra weight puts a lot of pressure on your feet, especially your arches. This increases your risk for over-pronation. Keep your weight within a healthy weight range for your height to limit your risk.  Eat a healthy, balanced diet and exercise for at least 30 minutes a day.

One of the hardest aspects of being confident at work is feeling like you’re not measuring up. Observe co-workers at your level, and take note of what they’re doing. Ask yourself if you’re putting similar care and effort into your own tasks.  If you are, reassure yourself that you’re doing what you need to do to contribute to the success of your organization. If you fear that you are not putting in enough effort, select a role model or mentor among your colleagues, and model your work performance after theirs. Ask them for advice, if they are open to it. Most supervisors don’t give praise freely. If they’re giving you accolades for your work, don’t doubt that they feel you deserve it. Be sure not to diminish what you’ve accomplished by giving credit to someone else or saying that the task “wasn’t that difficult.” Writing down the things at which you excel will remind you why you were offered your job in the first place. This will also help you remember what you have to offer your colleagues. Being armed with this knowledge will make it easier for you to interact with them as co-contributors to the mission of your company.] Make a point of celebrating your successes. It doesn’t have to be anything elaborate. You could treat yourself to a drink with friends or a nice dessert after work, or just mark the occasion with a positive note in your journal or calendar. It’s just as important to be humble about how you can improve as it is to recognize your capabilities. If you’re aware of the tasks and skills that you find challenging, you can address them with a sense of calm preparedness. If your co-workers see that you’re self-aware about your faults, they’ll be more likely to share constructive feedback with you -- and to elicit it so they can improve themselves as well! Talk to your coworkers about the goals you are setting for yourself. You might even ask them for feedback about your progress. Over the course of your career, it’s almost inevitable that you’ll make a mistake or have a bad day. Rather than dwelling...

TL;DR in English: Look around at others’ work habits. Believe the compliments you receive. Make a list of your strengths and successes. Make a different list of your weaknesses. Learn from your mistakes.

Some experts advise using sexual positions that encourage deep penetration, such as a rear-entry position, when trying to conceive a boy. The logic behind this is that ejaculating during deep-penetration sex places the sperm as close as possible to the cervix, giving the fast-moving male sperm an advantage. With shallow penetration, sperm may be deposited farther from the cervix, which means that the more durable female sperm (which can survive longer in the vagina) may have the advantage. Male sperm, which are more fragile than female sperm, tend to die faster in the acidic environment inside the vagina. Giving the female partner an orgasm can improve the chances of the male sperm because during female orgasm, extra cervical fluid is released. This makes the environment more hospitable to male sperm, increasing the chances that they make it to the egg alive. There are also claims that the orgasmic contractions can help push the sperm into the cervix faster. Just remember, these aren’t proven by science. Some research suggests that the older the parents are, the higher the chances are of having a girl. Therefore, if you're trying for a boy, it might be best to start early. The chances are highest for a woman to conceive a boy before age 30. It's age 35 for men.

TL;DR in English: Have sex in a rear entry position. Try for a female orgasm. Consider having a baby before your reach 30 or 35.

Keep gum handy to pop a piece in your mouth after you've smoked a cigarette to give yourself minty breath. Along with other methods, chewing gum is the easiest and best way to mask the smell of cigarettes. You might even consider chewing some gum while you smoke and then pop in another piece when you're finished. If you get a chance, brush your teeth before anyone gets the chance to smell you. The smell of breath spray usually wears out quickly, but it's another efficient method, as well as mouthwash. The hand in which you hold your cigarette will have the most lingering smell. Washing them thoroughly is the most practical way of getting the smoke off your hands. Use a strongly-scented liquid soap to get the most effective cleaning. Washing your face with soap and water is also important. Scrub your face quickly as you wash your hands, particularly around your chin and mouth. If you have facial hair, pay particular attention to getting deep in your beard and scrubbing. An alcohol swab, or a big spray of deodorant will do the job, effectively but might also be a conspicuous masking smell. If you're trying to keep people unsuspecting, coming in reeking of cologne might do more harm than good. Instead, just dab a bit of deodorant near your neck. This way people will just think you put on a little bit too much of it, and not that you're trying to cover something. If you have long hair, put it back in a ponytail before smoking and let it down when you're finished. Walk around a bit before you have to be around people, or drive with the windows down to get the smell out naturally. If you have a combing cream, you might consider using it, or other hair products that you usually use. To make your clothes smell like clothes, use fabric sheets, which are made to absorb smells like smoke. Febreeze has a light natural smell that serves a similar function, working to remove the smell rather than merely mask it like a cologne, aftershave, or perfume.  Never keep half-smoked cigarettes or cigarette butts in your pocket....

TL;DR in English:


Ask your parents or guardians to take you to religious services or to tell you about different religious beliefs in detail.

Examine your fears. Look at your play habits. Understand your interests.

It’s the map icon labeled “Google Maps.” You’ll usually find it on the home screen.  If you haven’t yet enabled location services or calibrated the compass, you should do so before you continue. In addition to GPS/the compass, Google Maps can also use Wi-Fi and local cell towers to find your location. For the most accurate results, connect to Wi-Fi and/or your cellular data network. It’s on the right side of the map, toward the bottom. Look for a solid gray dot surrounded by a gray circle with 4 directional points. The map will re-center to display your current location as a blue dot surrounded by a lighter blue circle. Within the lighter blue circle is a darker blue beam. This beam is aimed in the direction your phone or tablet is pointing. If the blue dot doesn’t appear or is gray, Google Maps cannot find your location. Make sure location services are enabled, and that you’re connected to either a Wi-Fi or data network. If the location of the blue dot is incorrect, it could be due to physical obstructions between you and cellular towers (such as tall buildings or structures). You may also need to restart your phone or tablet.

TL;DR in English: Open Google Maps on your iPhone or iPad. Tap the location icon. Troubleshoot location issues.

While you’re running, on an elliptical machine, or doing whatever exercise you do, work on a group of five words. Say them over and over to yourself and think about them as you work through the rhythm of your workout. Do the first one from your flashcard, and then repeat the word and definition without it 10-20 more times. If you’re really have a tough time remembering some of the words, you could make up different gestures to go with each word. The gesture you choose might have something to do with the meaning, but it could also be tied to the rhythm of the word, the number of syllables, or how it sounds. Find the gesture that most accurately mimics the word for you. Keep doing it over and over with your word.  Try kicks or jumps for the syllable with the most emphasis. Try hand gestures or head motions for the syllables that aren't emphasized. Sometimes you need to get out of your comfort zone and do something different to help yourself remember the words. If you normally work at a desk, choose a different place in your study area to sit cross-legged on the floor. In that position, think about one word that you want to remember. Focus on that word and its definition. Repeat 10-20 times. For the next word, find a different position – standing by the window, sitting against the wall, leaning against the door – the position doesn’t matter. What matters is that then hopefully you will associate that word with being in that place and that position and remember the word.

TL;DR in English: Take your words and exercise. Make up gestures. Study in a different position.

Call the  people in the missing person's life and ask when they last saw him or her. Determine if they know anything about the person's whereabouts. Besides friends, family members, neighbors, and classmates, call anyone who had regular contact with the missing person. This may include teachers, doctors, dentists, bus drivers, coworkers, and neighbors.  Keep a log of the people to whom you've spoken and what they had to say about the missing person. Keep it updated with as much detailed information as possible. Encourage people to call you back if they find out more information from another source. Report new findings to the case worker in charge of your missing person’s case at the police department. If the missing person was in an accident, he or she might be in a local hospital and unable to communicate for some reason. In some tragic cases, a missing person will be found with a coroner or medical examiner. Call all the facilities in your area to rule out these possibilities.  When you make the calls, ask for the missing person by name. If no one by that name is on record there, ask if they have unidentified people in their care who resemble your missing person. If the missing person had an encounter with law enforcement that led to an arrest, he or she may be in a local county jail. Check with local law enforcement offices to see if the missing person is incarcerated. You may also be able to check online using the “inmate locator” option on your local law enforcement’s website. This is an important way to gain information about the days leading up to the person's disappearance. Check his or her Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and other accounts. Determine whether recent activity contains any clues. Look at the missing person's friends' accounts as well.  Print out correspondence and activity that seems as though it could lead to the missing person's location. Report any activity that might be a clue to the case worker at the police department. Often, the missing person will see the fliers and decide to...

TL;DR in English: Contact the person's friends and acquaintances. Check with hospitals and coroners in the area. Check with your local county jail. Check social media sites. Put up fliers with a picture and description of the missing person.

Some of your childhood fears may indicate a predisposition for psychic ability. You might have medium abilities if:  You feared the dark. Often, children with psychic tendencies have a persisting fear of the dark that stems from an unconscious awareness of the supernatural. You also exhibited a persistent unwillingness to sleep in a room alone and may also have had vivid nightmares. If you don’t remember how you used to play as a child, ask your parents or guardians. You might have had some supernatural experiences disguised as play. Some of these experiences include: You had an imaginary friend. Often, adults label the spirits or supernatural being children interact with as “imaginary friends.” If you were extremely interested in religion or understanding meaning as a child, this could be an indication you had a psychic connection. If you showed tendencies toward psychic abilities early:  You asked guardians to take you to religious services or to tell you about different religious beliefs in detail. You engaged in play with objects like a Ouija board or tarot cards. You read children’s books centering around the spiritual or supernatural.

TL;DR in English:


Don't be a snob. Don't be a snob to the person you are trying to help. Don't be a snob to the person you are trying to help. Don't be a snob to the person you are trying to help. Don't be a snob to the person you are trying

If you are serious about becoming clean of heroin, you must have a friend with you that is really serious about helping you. Educate the person you have chosen for your buddy system. Keep a positive mind even though you feel as though your life is completely over. Remember that the buddy you choose did not do this to you.

One way to win over a snob is to find something that you do agree with or something you do have in common. Maybe it turns out you were both born and raised in Poughkeepsie, New York. Maybe you’re both die-hard Maria Sharapova fans. Maybe you both love making your own pasta. As you spend more time with the snob, dig around conversationally to see if there’s something you can bond over. The snob will begin to see you as a person he shares interests with and will come to think of you as a person of good taste.  If you really do find something you have in common, then you can even impress the snob with your knowledge of the subject. It may take a little digging if you really feel like you and the snob have nothing in common. If you have a mutual acquaintance, see if that person can give you something to work with. Then the next time you see the snob, you can say something like, “I didn’t know you were a Celtics fan, too. Are you from Boston?” Snobs like to stereotype people in order to help them believe that their views are superior. They may have a certain idea about you because you grew up in a working-class neighborhood, went to Harvard, or teach yoga. Though you don’t have anything to prove, if you want to be able to deal with snobby people, sometimes the best thing you can do is to show them that you’re not who they think. It takes time for you to challenge a person’s expectations, but it’ll be worth it. As you help them get to know you, you may find that they’re not who you think, either. Maybe you had a certain idea of the snobby person as being stuck-up, when you’ll learn that the person is really just insecure and afraid of new people. Though it may not be easy, one way to win over a snob is to turn him on to something you know he’ll like. Maybe the person is a pastry snob and you know exactly which boulangerie he’ll like the most; maybe she’s only into indie rock and you make her a CD of Stones hits that you know will do the trick. Make an effort to show the snob that there are other exciting things out...

TL;DR in English: Find common ground. Challenge their expectations about you. Educate them about the things you like. Avoid topics that are likely to start a conflict. Consider your audience. Don’t be a snob to them in return.

Because the moral is the center of a fable, it’s often helpful to begin outlining your fable by determining the moral. The moral of a fable should relate to or reflect on a culturally pertinent issue that will resonate with many people.  Some examples of famous fable morals to help inspire you include:  "Like will draw like." "The greatest kindness will not bind the ungrateful." "Advice prompted by selfishness should not be heeded." "Fine feathers don't make fine birds." "Strangers should avoid those who quarrel among themselves."    For a complete listing of the morals of Aesop's Fables and links to the stories in which they appear, go here. The problem is what will drive the action of the fable, and it will be the primary source for the lesson to be learned.  Because the nature of fable is to convey culturally-relevant lessons and ideas, the central problem works best when it’s something to which many people can relate.  For example, in "The Tortoise and the Hare," we are are quickly introduced to what will be the central problem or conflict of the story when two characters decide to hold a race. Determine who or what the characters in your fable will be and what traits will define them.  Because fables are meant to be simple and concise, don’t aim for complex or multi-faceted characters. Rather, aim to have each character embody a single human trait and keep the characters within those specific limits.  As the characters will be the primary vehicle for the fable’s moral, choose characters that will most clearly relate to that moral. In "The Tortoise and the Hare" the characters are, as the title indicates, a tortoise and a hare. Because a tortoise is easily associated with things that are slow-moving and the hare with things that are swift, the characters already have what will be their key traits in the story built-in. Though the kind of animal or object you choose for your character will have objective traits built-in, as above, you'll also need to craft the subjective qualities attached to those traits....

TL;DR in English: Choose the moral. Decide the problem. Decide on the cast of characters. Determine the characters' archetypes. Choose the setting. Decide the resolution to the problem.

A live oyster has a muscle that it uses to hold its shell tightly closed. If a live oyster is open, tapping on its shell should cause it to slam shut. If it stays open, the oyster has already died and you should throw it away. Oysters should always be shucked, eaten, or frozen while they are still alive to prevent exposure to a natural bacteria that can cause serious illness or even death. Hold the shell under running water and use a brush to scrub away any sand, shell particles, or mud that might be on the outside of the oyster. If the oyster isn't clean, you can push dirt onto the oyster meat with the knife when you open it. Oyster shells are sharp, and it's easy to cut yourself when you're opening them. You'll get a better grip on the oyster and be less likely to get a cut if you protect your hand. Carefully slide an oyster knife into the hinge, or the pointed edge, of the oyster shell, and twist until you hear a pop. Run the knife along the top edge of the oyster to free it from the shell, then break the top shell away. Keep the oyster upright to save as much of the oyster’s juice as possible. Leave about 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) of headspace in the container, then seal the container and place it into the freezer. Carefully lay the oysters flat so the juices don’t spill out, as this liquid contains a lot of flavor. It will also help keep the oysters plump and hydrated while they’re frozen. After 3 months, your oysters will run the risk of becoming freezer burned and they will no longer be suitable for eating. Label the container so you don't forget how long they've been in the freezer. When you're ready to thaw out your oysters, place them in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.

TL;DR in English: Tap each oyster to make sure it's still alive. Scrub the shells with a stiff-bristled brush. Hold the oyster with a dish towel or a glove. Pry off the top shell of the oyster. Place half-shell oysters in a shallow container. Store your oysters in the freezer for up to 3 months.

Have him/her monitor all your phone calls just in case someone tries to call you and try to get you to buy something or your drug dealers calling you to find out why they haven't heard from you. Explain to them the severity of the symptoms included in withdrawal so that they can assist you and continue to help you get through it. Never keep yours feelings bottled up, it will only cause more problems. Make sure that the person that you choose for your buddy system is trustworthy and is sincere about helping you. Make sure that the one you choose is someone that you can talk to about anything in your life and preferably is someone that you have known for many years. So even when you are at your lowest peaks, remember that they do not have to help you and that they chose to do so. Most of all, remember that they have feelings too. And warn them in advance that you are going to be moody and to not take anything you say during withdrawal seriously.

TL;DR in English:


Find an old takeout, pie or salad container. Get your soil. Set up your light source. Choose organic seeds. Try spicy microgreens. Pick earthy and mild microgreens.

Get in the spirit of the disco era by wearing a variety of fun, bright colors. Don’t worry about your colors clashing or looking too out-of-place—at the disco, all colors are welcome! If you’re feeling especially bold, opt for metallic or sequined clothes to make your outfit sparkle. For instance, try pairing a bright orange, form-fitting crop top with a pair of dark blue bell-bottoms. Go to a disco party in maximum comfort by incorporating spandex into your outfit. You can find Spandex in a variety of different clothing items, including jumpsuits, jeans, and tops. Mix and match until you find the perfect outfit! Viscose rayon is also a great option if you like to wear a lot of patterned fabric. Pay homage to the disco era with a variety of classic symbols on the accessories, such as a peace sign or disco ball. Try to find shirts or other articles of clothing printed with these popular symbols. If you’re feeling especially ambitious, order a cheap disco ball online and bring it to the party! If you want to take a more musical theme with your costume, wear some vintage tees of famous 70s bands like ABBA or the Village People. Look for clothing and accessories that have an element of fringe, or dangly decorations. You can find many vests and boots with fringe, in addition to pants as well as other items of clothing. While not as stereotypical as a jumpsuit or pair of hot pants, fringed clothing and accessories are a great way to add an extra layer of cultural depth to your disco attire. Take advantage of the disco era’s bright and flamboyant fashion style by opting for patterned clothing and accessories. If you’re looking for a more feminine style, choose a shirt or dress with a paisley pattern. If you’d prefer a more retro look, opt for a Hawaiian shirt instead. Animal and floral prints are also great pattern options for a disco costume.

TL;DR in English: Dress up in bright, flashy colors to stand out at the party. Pick clothing made of Spandex to wear something fun and flexible. Choose accessories with classic 70s symbols to embody the disco spirit. Select fringed fabrics for an extra funky vibe. Try on clothing with bright and fun patterns.

At the beginning of the letter, tell the person your name and why you are writing to them. Do you like their music or their movies? Do you look up to them and want to be like them? Did they help you deal with a problem you were having? Be honest and express your true feelings.  You may say, “Hi, my name is Nicole. I love your music because it helped me get through a really hard time.” You could say, “Hi, my name is Alex. I play basketball, and I want to be a great player like you one day.” You may say, “Hey, I’m Michael. You are my favorite author, and I have read all of your books!” Once you introduce yourself, tell the person why you like them so much. Go into more detail about they have affected your life. Be honest and be as specific as possible.  If you were writing to your favorite athlete, you may say, “I watch all of your games on TV. I was so excited when you guys made it to the playoffs.” If you are writing to your favorite singer, you may say, “I love all of your music, but “Confident” is awesome. I listen to it every morning before I go to school.” If you were writing to your favorite author, you may say, “Hermione is my favorite character. I can relate to her so much.” End your letter by thanking the person for what they do and for taking the time to read your letter. You should also include your contact information at the end of the letter just in case the person wants to write back to you.  You can say, “Thanks for reading my letter and for making great music.” You may also say, “I know you are a very busy person. Thanks you so much for taking the time to read my letter.” Your contact information should include your name, address, city, state, and zip code. Famous people get a ton of fan letters. They are more likely to read a short letter. Try to keep your letter to one page or less. Take your time when writing the letter. You want the person to be able to actually read what you wrote.

Most cities have animal control offices to deal with complaints about animals. In some cities, animal shelters handle these complaints. To find the appropriate office, you can look for “animal control” in your phone book.  You can also search the Internet. Type “animal waste complaint” and “your city.” The appropriate office should show in your search results. Once you find the appropriate office, write down the phone number that you call. Before calling, pull together the relevant information to give to animal control. For example, you should have the following:  a description of the animal the animal’s address the time of the incident any other relevant details Some cities give you the ability to make an anonymous report. You might want to report anonymously if you are afraid of the animal owner or if you otherwise don’t want to get involved in any dispute. However, if you report anonymously, then animal control might not do anything. In order to properly punish the animal owner, animal control may have to request a hearing where evidence is presented against the dog owner. Animal control might not be able to bring this hearing if you are not willing to testify. Some cities have online forms you can complete in order to make an animal waste complaint. For example, you can file an online complaint in New York City. After you complain, animal control should reach out to the animal’s owner. An inspector may even stop to meet with the animal owner. You should offer to help animal control in any way that you can. For example, you should share with the inspector any documentation you have of the waste. After being contacted by animal control, the owner may still refuse to pick up after their animal. In this situation, you need to make a second complaint to animal control. In some cities, such as Fort Worth, you will have to fill out an affidavit. The affidavit should include:  the name of the animal’s owner (or a description if you don’t know the name) the animal owner’s address a description of the animals the...

TL;DR in English: Find the appropriate office. Gather relevant information. Decide if you want to report anonymously. Report online, instead. Meet with an animal control inspector. Make a second complaint.

You will need a container that is two inches deep and has enough surface area for the amount of greens you want to grow. To save money, keep your old takeout containers for this purpose. You could also use one an old plastic salad container. Make sure the container has holes at the bottom for drainage. If you prefer, you could pick up some propagation trays from your local garden center, which are designed for this purpose. Purchase some quality potting soil from your local home and garden center so that your microgreens have a nutritious environment to grow in. Buy enough soil to completely fill your containers or trays with.  You can also buy some coconut coir to add to the potting mix if you want to improve water retention and air flow. Coconut coir is optional, but can be very beneficial for seed propagation. If using coconut coir, fill each container with three quarters potting soil and one quarter coconut coir. You can also pick up some vermiculite to use at the planting stage. Vermiculite is a mineral that also helps with seed propagation. If you are growing in a warm climate and have lots of light in your house, simply place your tray of microgreens beside a sunny window. However, if you are growing microgreens indoors and do not have much light in your house, you will need a grow light. If you use artificial light, you should place the light four inches above your tray of microgreens. You can use a cheap fluorescent shop light with fluorescent bulbs.  If you have a bit more money, you can use full spectrum fluorescent grow lights. These lights will help your greens grow a little better but are more expensive.  You can also use a four inch T5 CFL grow light. Since microgreens are harvested early, all of the nutrients and any of the pesticides that may be on the seed will be highly concentrated. If your seeds are not organic, they could contain a higher amount of toxins than regular greens. So, you should always purchase organic seeds for microgreens. If you are looking to spice up a salad or sandwich,...
