File the eviction notice at the courthouse. Prepare for the court hearing. Attend the court hearing. Involve the sheriff if the tenant still won't leave after being ordered to do so.

Purchase a commercial cleaner, such as Goof Off Stain Remover, to finish the job. Look for specific caulk removers. Follow all instructions and warnings supplied by the manufacturer to ensure proper cleaning. Warning: Always pretest new cleaners on old clothing before applying it to important or favorite garments. Antibacterial sanitizing products can remove some stains from clothing, and they may be effective on caulk. First, squeeze the sanitizer onto the stained area. Rub the spot gently with a tissue or a damp rag. You may need to use several applications of sanitizer if the stain is especially bad. Wet the stain with water. Pour baking soda onto the fabric while it's still wet. Massage the baking soda into the fabric with a rag or towel until the caulk comes out. If the stain does not come out completely, keep trying. Put the clothing in the wash afterward, and results will improve even more.

TL;DR in English: Use a chemical cleaner. Try using hand sanitizer. Rub with baking soda.

Notes are found on the survey illustration and provide information pertaining to former ownership of the land being surveyed or nearby properties.  A more thorough account of the property can be found in the written report. The report includes legal information and additional comments provided by the surveyor. This document may also contain:  Official property measurements. Any easements that may exist on the property. An easement allows a third party legal access to a property. For example, when you give your neighbor permission to park in your driveway or allow a utility company to run electrical lines run through your property.  Any other property improvements that may have occurred since the latest survey on file. The report will also indicate if these improvements meet the code standards set up by the local building department. An indication as to whether the property is zoned for residential or commercial use. It might be good to have a friend or family member read the property survey with you so that they can offer suggestions or identify potential issues you might have missed.  After reading the survey, contact your surveyor to clear up any misunderstanding.  Remember, understanding your survey is crucial for establishing full control over your property. Whether you are buying a new property, looking to build on your land, or trying to sell some or all of your land, your property survey will help move the process along.  If the boundaries of your property are ever in question, consult your property survey to settle the matter.

TL;DR in English: Read the notes. Read the written survey report carefully. Write down any points of confusion or concern. Put your survey to use.

Use an actual fishing hook, such as a barbed hook, or improvise a hook out of whatever you have available. Tie it to a piece of fishing line or to an improvised line.  You can improvise a hook from many things such as paper clips, safety pins, sewing needles, and even soda can tabs. If you don’t have any actual fishing line, you can use thread from clothing, shoelaces, and vines or other sinewy plant material. Hook the bait or tie the lure onto the line. Use live bait, a store-bought bait or lure, or an improvised lure, depending on what you have available and what you want to catch.  You can use live bait you find in the wild such as worms, minnows, and insects. To improvise a lure, you can use shiny metals or even colorful pieces of cloth. For example, worms work well for catching medium-large fish, such as bass, walleye, and trout. Powerbait is a store-bought alternative to worms for catching the same types of fish. Insects work well for catching smaller fish. Stand on the shore, on the edge of a dock, or sit near the side of a boat. Cast the line out far enough that it won’t tangle on anything and let it sink and dangle in the water.  Now you can either wait until you get a bite or slowly pull the line back in and repeat the process to try and attract fish. You might want to wear gloves to protect your hands from getting cut by the line. Give the line a sharp tug as soon as you feel a bite. This will hook the fish, then you can pull it in to you.  Don’t ever wrap the line around your hand or any part of yourself. A big fish could cause the line to give you a nasty cut. To reel the line in, pull it in hand-over-hand. In other words, always hold on to it with 1 hand, then release it with the other hand, and put that hand in front of the hand holding it. Imagine that you are climbing a rope and repeat this process to reel it in. You can spool the line around a thick stick or a can to create an improvised reel and help you reel the line in more easily.

TL;DR in English: Tie any hook you have available onto a piece of fishing line. Bait the hook with your bait of choice or a fishing lure. Drop the line into the water and let it sink. Tug on the line to set the hook when you get a bite, then pull the fish in.

One of the main symptoms of a heart attack is a sensation of heaviness, tightness, squeezing, or pressure in the chest or upper back. This pain may not be sudden or severe. It may last for a few minutes, then go away and come back. Some people mistake heart attack pain for heartburn or indigestion. If this pain does not start soon after eating, if you do not usually have heartburn, or if it is accompanied by nausea (feeling like you are going to vomit), you need to visit the emergency room. Women suffering from a heart attack may experience sharp pain that resembles a toothache or earache in the jaw, neck, shoulder or back. This pain occurs because the nerves supplying these areas are also supplying the heart. This pain may come and go for a while before it becomes more intense. It may even be so intense that it wakes you up during the night.  These pains may be felt in each location at once, or in only some of the locations listed. Women often don't experience pain in their arm or shoulder men often report when they have a heart attack. If you suddenly feel faint, your heart may not be getting the blood it needs. If shortness of breath or a cold sweat accompanies the dizziness (feeling as if the room is spinning) or lightheadedness (feeling like you may faint), you could be having a heart attack. Decreased blood flow to the brain causes these symptoms. If you feel winded all of a sudden, this could be a sign of a heart attack. Feeling winded means that you feel as if you cannot catch your breath. If you are feeling short of breath, try breathing through pursed lips (as if you are going to whistle). You use less energy when you breathe this way. This method of breathing may also help you feel more relaxed and lessen the "shortness of breath" feeling. When you have a heart attack, the blood pressure in your lungs and heart rise while the pumping function of the heart decreases. Gastrointestinal symptoms are more common symptoms of a heart attack for women than for men. These symptoms are often overlooked by...

TL;DR in English: Take note of any discomfort in your chest or back. Identify any discomfort in your upper body. Look for any dizziness and/or lightheadedness. Notice shortness of breath. Watch for any gastrointestinal symptoms, such as nausea, indigestion, and vomiting. Consider whether you had difficulty catching your breath upon waking. Think about whether you’re feeling anxious. Look for weakness and fatigue.

Bring a copy of the notice and proof that you sent it by certified mail to show that the deadline for a response from the tenant has come and gone. You'll have to pay a fee to formally file the eviction case. The clerk will give you a case number and arrange for you to have a court hearing on a certain date.  Serve the tenant with the court complaint.  As with the eviction notice, there are rules about the proper procedure for notifying the tenant of your complaint and the summons to court on a particular date. The court clerk can help you make sure you understand your obligation.  You may need to hire a process server, in some cases, or pay the court to have the sheriff serve the papers. If you haven't already consulted with an attorney, now might be a good time to do so. Find someone who can help you prepare for your court hearing and finish the eviction process. Before the hearing, collect proof that you have just cause to evict the tenant. You'll need to be able to show without a doubt that the tenant didn't pay rent or violated the lease in some other way. Here are a few of the documents you should bring:  The lease agreement Emails, texts and voicemails exchanged with the tenant or witnesses Bounced checks Photographs of damaged property or other indications that the lease was violated A copy of the eviction notice and proof that it was received (such as a receipt from the post office or printout of the certification report) Sworn affidavits (statements) by witnesses and others of relevant facts related to your case (such as damage estimates by contractors), police reports, Identify any witnesses who you want to appear in court and request that the court (or your attorney) issue them a subpoena. In some cases the tenant may also submit an "answer" or "counterclaim", or even a motion for "discovery" in reply to your complaint. Your lawyer will help you deal with each of these. they often have very short due dates. A tenant may voluntarily move out prior to the court date, and you should call the clerk to...

To cook your own pumpkin seeds, you must start with raw seeds, and the best place to get these is a fresh pumpkin. Cut open your pumpkin by cutting off the top and quartering it, or by cutting an angled hole around the stem. Remove the seeds with a spoon. Transfer the seeds to a colander and rinse them under running water. Pick through with your fingers to remove the stringy bits and orange flesh. Toss the seeds to remove excess water. The easiest way to toast pumpkin seeds is to cook them in a frying pan. Place a dry 10-inch skillet over medium heat and let it preheat for two to three minutes. A dry frying pan means there is no oil or other liquid in it. Add the pumpkin seeds to the hot frying pan and spread them out in a single layer to ensure even cooking. Cook the seeds for four to five minutes.  As the seeds cook, toss them around in the pan or stir them with a wooden spoon every minute. The seeds are ready when they become golden brown and puff up. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer the warm seeds to a bowl. Drizzle in the oil, add the spices, and toss to coat. You can season the seeds with a pinch of:  Salt Pepper Cinnamon Curry powder Herbs, such as rosemary or thyme

TL;DR in English: Collect and clean the seeds. Heat the frying pan. Toast the seeds. Season with oil and spices before serving.

If someone tells you that they are considering killing themselves, you need to contact a professional immediately. Even if they ask you "not to tell anyone" or to keep this "between you two," you need to seek out help to prevent someone from hurting themselves.  You can reach the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or 800-SUICIDE (784-2433). They can help you help your friend, and they can help talk someone down who is considering taking their own life.

For more information, visit https://www.crisistextline.org. People considering suicide often experience rapid, intense personality changes once they've made their decision. Oftentimes this is negative, with the person acting withdrawn, depressed, or aggressive. But some people swing the opposite direction, suddenly becoming happier and calm despite months of low-energy and sadness. The important things to look out for are drastic, unexplained mood or personality shifts, not one specific "type" of behavior. People on the verge of suicide often "call out" to friends and family for help, broadcasting their intentions and sadness. Some comments to watch out for include:  "It would be better if I wasn't around," "you're better off without me." "Life is hopeless," "I feel like a waste of space and time." "I feel trapped," "I can't see any way out of this." Talking about unbearable and/or constant pain. Talking about ways a person could die or kill themselves. Calling to say "goodbye" or set affairs in order, especially "if anything happens to me." " Some people suffering from suicidal thoughts will take huge risks, believing their lives don't matter. This may include running red lights, excessive drinking or drug use, and dangerous, random new hobbies. When together, encourage safer, simpler activities and conversation Substance abuse, through either drugs or alcohol, is a major...

TL;DR in English: Immediately contact emergency services if someone says that they want to kill or hurt themselves. Note any drastic shifts in behavior. Listen for any troubling language or statements. Prevent reckless, semi-suicidal "death wishes. Check in on friends who have withdrawn from friendly, normal behavior regularly. Recognize when someone is planning for their death. Know that a suicidal friend may be actively searching out ways to hurt themselves. Know the risk factors for suicidal tendencies.

Steam cleaning is most effective when you remove all toys, papers, and general clutter from the floor. Move all tables, chairs, and furniture out of the room. Clear as much of the floor space as you can.  If some furniture is too heavy to move, place squares of wax paper, foil, wood blocks, or plastic film under the legs to protect them from the moisture of the steam cleaner. You can’t clean the carpet completely if you leave furniture in the room. If you don’t have room to move the furniture to another room, move it all to half of the room and do the room in two separate sections. Let the carpet dry before you move furniture back to the already cleaned half. As you run the steam cleaner, you might knock dust off the baseboards if you don’t dust them beforehand. Use a dust cloth with wood polish or a long handled duster to remove as much of the dust as you can. Dust ceiling fans and corners of the ceiling to prevent extra dust from falling on the carpet after you have steam cleaned them. Steam cleaners are meant to pull up small dirt particles that are down in the fibers of the carpet. They are not for removing hair and larger dirt pieces. Vacuum the entire room more slowly than you usually would. It is best to go over the room twice to get as much of the larger debris as possible. The second time, go over the room in the opposite direction to pick up more dirt.  For extra cleaning, use a nozzle attachment to get right up to the baseboards and edges of the room. Vacuuming also fluffs up the carpet so that the steamer can clean the fibers more effectively. Steamers can’t always lift deep, set-in stains, so it’s always helpful to treat stains before steaming the carpet. Use a carpet stain remover, or other natural solutions if you prefer. Blot the stain remover up with a cloth or leave it to be sucked up by the machine. When you do this, dab at the stains with a cloth. Never scrub at stains as this can cause them to work deeper into the carpet.

TL;DR in English: Remove everything from the room. Dust the baseboards. Vacuum the entire carpet carefully. Use stain remover on specific bad spots.

There are careers available in numerous industries for people who want to immigrate to Japan. The work and visa requirements may vary depending on the kind of job you are looking for. For example, while some types of work may require a 4 year university degree, others may only require that you have a certain amount of experience in your field.  For example, to get a work visa as an Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services, you need either 3 years of experience in your field or a university degree.  Even if your work visa does not require a degree, you may need a degree for the specific job you are interested in. Find out if the jobs you are interested in require other qualifications. For example, if you want to teach English, you may need a Certificate in English Language Teaching to Adults (CELTA). There are several job boards that specialize in jobs for foreigners looking for work in Japan. Explore websites like Daijob.com or GaijinPot.com to find jobs in your field. Many jobs in Japan require that you submit your resume in a very specific format. The company may provide its own resume form, or you can download a standard template from the web. Do an internet search for “rirekisho template” to find standard resume forms.  The resume typically includes sections on your academic history, employment history, other qualifications (e.g., licenses or language certifications), general information (this is where you would describe your personal interest in the job), and requests (e.g., salary requirements or desired work hours). If you are not proficient in Japanese, ask someone who knows Japanese to help you fill out the application form. Japanese resumes include a passport-sized photo in the top righthand corner. Most metropolitan areas in Japan have numerous photo booths specifically made for taking resume photos. Make sure that you appear professional in your photo.  Wear formal business attire and a neat, conservative hairstyle. Don’t let your hair cover any part of your face. Shave any facial...

Establish a workout routine about 6 months before your wedding. Try to work out at least three times a week for thirty or more minutes. This is the minimum amount of time needed to start impacting your body and seeing results. Working out doesn't only tone and thin your body, it's also a great stress reliever.   If you can't make it to the gym or a fitness class, there are things you can do on your own as a workout. Take a run or a brisk walk around your neighborhood. You can also buy free-weights at stores like Walmart or Dicks Sporting Goods if you want to lift weights. Stretch before a workout. Stretching is essential to making sure you don't injure yourself before a workout. Stretching also increases your blood flow and circulation, which is energizing and can improve your mood. If you enjoy stretch-related exercise, try out a yoga or Pilates class. This can mean things like taking the stairs instead of the elevator, or biking instead of driving. Doing this won't take any time out of your schedule, but it will make you happier and healthier. These are good ways to keep up your fitness in the busy weeks before your wedding. As you are starting your fitness routine, make an effort to eat healthier. Choose 1% milk as opposed to 3%. If you are eating a sandwich, choose a whole grain bread. Try to find the healthy version of everyday things that you eat. These changes make it easier to transition to a healthy lifestyle without giving up your normal diet.  Recreating your favorite foods at home is a great way to do this. If you crave pizza, buy a pizza crust from the grocery store along with sauce, low-fat cheese and some veggie toppings. This will satisfy your craving in a healthy way. Try to make half your plate at meal times contain either fruit or vegetables. They are essential in giving you the vitamins, minerals and fiber you need for great health. Keep fresh vegetables like baby carrots or sugar snap peas around for snacking. Snacking on veggies is filling and good for your body. Food is awesome, but if...

Aside from knowing where business will come from, you also need to know how much – and how fast – the business can be expected to grow. Be able to articulate where, specifically, money will come from, as well as what operational expenses will be.  For instance, initial and recurring costs must be recorded, as well as a loan repayment plan, and the level of profits that are expected each month or quarter.  Forecast these figures for the first three years after opening. Decide on the prices your shop will charge for specific services. These can be used alongside your anticipated customer projections to determine revenue estimates. Establish a “break-even” point.  This is the point at which the business will be generating revenue, as opposed to spending money as it gets up and running.  It may take longer to “break even” than you initially realize. Simply stated, you need to know how much money you’ll need to open the business and maintain operations until your shop starts generating revenue.  If you intend to borrow money by way of a loan, it is especially important to determine a concrete dollar amount to ask for. Unfortunately, there's no ballpark number, since differences in location, equipment, and shop size can cause start-up costs for auto body repair shops to fluctuate considerably.  This is partly why is so important to develop a solid business plan, as it is the best way to accurately estimate your start-up costs. Know that SBA-insured loans are one of the best sources of funding for a small business. This is another reason you should follow the SBA’s guidelines when developing your business plan. Equipment expenses are commonly underestimated. While you may be able to save money buying used equipment, there is a greater chance of unforeseen costs associated with maintaining older equipment.  A good rule of thumb: estimate your initial equipment and inventory expenses and increase the number by thirty percent. While this may seem like a huge amount of money, it's far better to wind up spending less...

TL;DR in English: Specify your expected revenue for the first few years. Determine the amount of funding you’ll need. Over-estimate equipment and materials expenses. Be willing to invest in the best location you can find. Consider opening an auto body franchise location.

Create something that you both can access and share, such as an online blog or scrapbook. This will give you a new way to communicate while also giving you the sense of creating something together. You might create a food blog with your culinary adventures, Instagram your workouts, or create a special Twitter hashtag just for you two. Share your online calendars too. If you miss each other, you'll have someplace to look to see why. You'll also have something to talk about, as in "How was the concert last night?" This will make the distance between you seem smaller and more bridgeable. You'll feel closer together and you'll be bonding at the same time. If you're unsure of things to do, try one of the following:  Plan to cook the same meal on the same day. If neither of you are into cooking, you might just plan to eat the same cuisine or snack. Read the same book or article. You can even take turns reading it aloud to each other. Watch a TV show or movie simultaneously. Keep a call open and share your reactions. Use video phones to chat while having meals or watching movies together. Sleep together. You can both get on the phone or video chat and fall asleep together. Doing this occasionally can make you feel closer. If time zones are too different, try instead to be online to say good morning or good night to your partner. Choose a project you'd both like to do, like take an online language class or learn how to knit. Do whatever you're both interested in. This will give you a wonderful sense of shared history and you'll have something that really ties you together. It's also a great way to spend time together while giving you something to talk about. Take advantage of the internet. You could play an online multiplayer game or something traditional, like chess. Either way, you can chat while playing, giving you a greater feeling of togetherness. Try to do little things that let the other person know that you care. You may write love letters and send them in the mail. Or, send small gifts, cards, or flowers for...

Traits are the parts of you that don’t usually change much over time. They are characteristics about you that may be positive, while others might be a bit more negative. Your personality is the sum of all these traits and characteristics and is what makes you a unique person. Listing your traits can help you define your personality.  For example, you might write that you are sensitive, caring, stubborn, determined, ambitious, hard-working, and dependable. Use words that describe how you think, behave, and feel in general.  For instance, you could include: calm, a night owl, sociable, a good planner, or helpful on your list. Look at lists of personality traits online that others have used to define themselves. See which ones are applicable to you, then add words of your own. Include words that family and friends frequently use to describe you. For example, if they are always telling you that you’re comical, put it on the list. You may even ask family and friends to help you find descriptive words for yourself. Some studies suggest that your personality influences how you approach situations and your outlook on life. Other research suggests that personality traits influence behavior. So, look at your attitude and actions to understand how to define your personality.  Consider your attitude towards change. Write about a major change in your life. For example, you may write that you felt nervous and worried when you moved. Think about how you handle challenges and obstacles. Then consider how likely you are to take risks, and how you respond to failure or set-backs. Write down the personality traits that come to mind. For example, think about how you react when someone is rude to you. You might write, “I calmly tell them to stop and try to figure out what’s wrong.” Think about the things you do. Would you describe them as individual activities or social? For example, gardening, reading, and painting are individual activities. Social activities are things like team sports and participating in clubs and...

In order for you to make the right sounds with your slide, you need to learn to mute the strings above where your sliding. This will keep the strings from unwanted vibrations and keep them from producing unwanted sounds. To do this, gently press your fingers on the strings. Use just enough pressure to keep the strings from making unnecessary noises as they vibrate. To play your slide correctly, you need to make sure you are pressing it in the right place. You should not press the string under or above the fret because the note will sound flat.  You should also not press the string into the fretboard. Even if your eyes say that you are directly above the fret, listen to the note. If it sounds flat or wrong in any way, move your slide up and down until it makes the right note. To start learning to slide, pick a note on your guitar. Muting the other strings with your non-slide fingers, press gently with the slide and then move it up and down the strings to make the sliding sound. You can start slow to get a feel for the different technique of playing and motions needed to play with the slide on.  If you are using the slide on your middle finger, you will not be able to mute the strings. Just apply gently enough to get the sound you want. Try playing songs you are familiar with using your slide to get used to the different feel of the technique. When you use a slide, you should not press too hard on the strings. This will make the strings touch the fretboard, which will cause your guitar to make strange, unpleasant sounds. Move your hand up and down to gauge how hard you are pressing.  If it's hard to move the slide, you should lighten your pressure. The more you move your hand around, the better feel you will have for the strings. As you play note after note, the strings will continue to reverberate. If you slide up the string to your next note, all the notes in between will play as well. To avoid this, mute the strings between different notes using your other hand.  You can use the finger that you are picking...

The first training sessions should be to teach the puppy not to bite. You should have plenty of toys for your Rottweiler puppy on hand at all times. Puppies go through a teething stage and will bite your fingers or hand during play. If he does nip, say “No bite.” Play act that the puppy has hurt you, with mock yelping or squealing. After that, get up and leave. This gives the dog the message that biting ends the game. Avoid tapping a puppy on the nose as this will over excite him and make him more likely to bite. Chewing is a natural behavior for a puppy, but it can be destructive on a household. Diversion from an item you don’t want chewed to another you would rather the puppy chew on works well. For example, if you find your puppy chewing on a book, take the book away, put it out of reach, and give them a toy to chew on. As remove the book, say “no chew.” Your puppy will eventually understand what he can and cannot chew. You may want your puppy to bark when visitors or un-welcomed guests come to your home. However, your puppy should learn the command “Quiet” for those times when barking is a nuisance. Keep your bag of small treats with you at all times and when the puppy begins to bark, say “Quiet.” When the puppy hushes immediately, give him the reward so he associates the word “Quiet” with stopping barking. This may take some time, but he will eventually understand that you expect him to hush when you say quiet. Consistency and patience is the key in making this work for the both of you. It is important for your dog to learn the meaning of 'no' or 'stop'. You can use either one, but the use of it must be consistent. Rottweiler puppies are very playful and love mouth items. If your puppy nibbles on you or things other than toys or picks up items he shouldn’t, it is very, very important for him to learn 'no!' or 'stop'. When teaching this to your puppy, always be firm and consistent. Once you have voiced the command, immediately move your dog away from whatever it is doing and once again say 'stop'. Walk...

TL;DR in English: Teach ‘No bite’. Command ‘No chew’. Tell him to be ‘Quiet’. Teach ‘No’ or ‘Stop’. Command ‘Sit’. Tell him to get ‘Down’. Teach ‘Stay’. Tell him to ‘Come’. Command ‘Paw’.

Mix 1/4 cup of flour and 1/2 cup of warm water to make a slurry, then add the yeast and wait for it to proof. It will begin foaming when it's ready. Whisk it to combine, or use a dough hook attachment on your mixer to stir it up.  Turn on the dough hook attachment at its lowest speed, or use a wooden spoon to mix the dough. Add water a few tablespoons at a time, mixing constantly, until the dough comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Allow it to absorb the water for a few minutes. This will make it easier to get the final flour/water ratio correct. Add additional water or flour slowly until the bowl is “clean,” without lots of bits of dough clinging to the sides. When you pinch the dough it should be just slightly sticky. If it seems too wet, add some more flour (try about ¼ to ½ cup) and process a bit more. . Turn on the dough hook attachment to a medium speed. If you are not using a machine, you will need to knead about 10 to 15 minutes by hand to distribute the ingredients and develop the gluten in the flour. Flour your work surface and hands, then turn out the dough onto the surface and knead. Put the dough into a bowl 3 times larger than the amount of flour used. Oil the bowl with cooking oil, the place the dough in the bowl and cover it with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel. Set it in a warm area of the kitchen to rise. The first rising will take a couple of hours, depending on how warm a spot the bowl is left in. You can let the dough rise in the refrigerator overnight if you prefer. After the dough has roughly tripled in volume, you should “punch down” the dough by poking it with your fingers to deflate it. Place it back in an oiled bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Set it in a warm area to rise a second time. When it has doubled in size, punch it down again. Three risings encourage smaller bubbles in the dough. If you want to speed the process or prefer a courser bread (more large bubbles), you can eliminate one or two of these risings.

TL;DR in English: Proof the yeast. Place the remaining flour and the salt in a mixing bowl. Add the proofed yeast. Mix the dough and add water. Stop mixing and let the dough rest. Continue mixing.  Knead the dough Let the dough rise. Punch down the dough. Let the dough rise again. Let the dough rise a third time.

Alcohol dehydrates you, and since Jagermeister has such high alcohol by volume, it dehydrates you very quickly. Try alternating a full glass of water with every drink of Jager you take. The water will slow down the dehydration process and keep you from getting too drunk.  Understand that because you are drinking so much water, you will be running to the bathroom quite frequently. The more alcohol you drink, the less water you will remember to consume. Drink a couple glasses of water before you start drinking alcohol to help level the playing field. If a room is especially warm, you may find yourself dehydrated sooner rather than later. If you’re sweating more than you normally do, drink even more water to avoid becoming too drunk. Going to the bathroom frequently doesn’t just dehydrate your body – it also depletes it of necessary nutrients. This loss of nutrients is partially responsible for the hangover you feel the next day. To counteract this, drink plenty of electrolytes while drinking Jagermeister.  Keep packets of Emergen-C handy, so you can mix them into water and drink them between glasses of Jager. Buy a bottle of Gatorade and chug that between drinks of Jager. Drinking from a curved or round glass can result in you drinking more alcohol, because it’s tougher to gauge how much alcohol you’ve consumed. Keep track of how many drinks you’ve had (and if you can, how many ounces are in each drink). This will keep you from drinking too much too quickly.  Standard drink size for Jagermeister is usually 1.5 fluid ounces.  Standard drink size for a glass of wine is 5 fluid ounces. For beer, it's 12 ounces. Ask for your Jagermeister neat or on the rocks. Mixing Jager with sugar will only increase your chances of getting dehydrated. And if you are drinking Jagermeister, stick to Jagermeister. Mixing different types of alcohol is the easiest way to get sick or too drunk.  If you plan on mixing your Jager with sugary drinks, decrease your sugar intake earlier in the day to help your body maintain balance.  Sugary...

TL;DR in English: Drink water. Increase your electrolytes. Drink your Jagermeister from a straight glass. Drink your Jagermeister straight up. Limit the amount you drink.

Be sure to consult your doctor to see if swimming, or other water exercise, is appropriate for your current condition. The doctor can advise you on swimming strokes that you should avoid, or equipment that might be particularly useful. Talking to your doctor can help you get the most out of water exercise, but it can also help you avoid potential injury. This is especially important if you don't remember how to do strokes, or if you have never swam before. This is also a great idea for anyone who is unsure of their form when swimming. Improper form can lead to imbalanced muscle mass, back and neck pain, and uneven strokes. Look for classes at a local recreational center, swim club, or gym. You can either choose to take private lessons or join a large class. It may only take a few sessions to get you swimming properly. Get a form-fitting swimsuit, swimming goggles, and a swim cap. If you are prone to ear infections, you may also want to get ear plugs. Buy aquatic shoes to protect your feet if you plan to swim in rivers or oceans.

TL;DR in English:


Find out when tryouts are. Make a plan to manage your commitments. Prepare for the Cooper Test. Expect introductions and warmups. Have practice games in your neighborhood or with friends if possible.

Thoroughly break up the soil with a garden tiller or garden spade. This amount of space makes it easy for the roots to spread out, helping the tree grow. What’s more, grass is greedy – making sure it’s not around the base of your tree will prevent it from inhibiting your tree’s growth. Go 12 inches (30.5 cm) deep into the soil for the best support for the peach tree's roots. Spread the roots away from the base of the tree, but be careful not to bend them. Mix it up well, loosening the soil. Then, water the area where you will be placing the peach tree. Just a bit more than a light sprinkle will do; you do not want to saturate the dirt. If the pH of the soil is too low (you want the pH to be around 6.0-7.0), mix a few limes into the soil. Place the tree in your hole on a small mound of soil, and fill the hole back up. Pat the soil around the peach tree gently with a garden spade to secure it. If you have a grafted tree, position the inside of the curve of the graft union away from the sun.

TL;DR in English: Prepare a section of ground that is 5 feet (1.5 m) or more in diameter. Add peat moss and organic matter such as compost to the prepared soil. Plant your peach tree in the middle of the prepared soil.

One of the most simple ways you can extend the life or your automobile without paying for costly tune-ups is to check your oil level regularly and add more oil, if it's low. It only takes a minute or two to check the level, and the dipstick included in your engine block makes the job a snap for even the novice.  Find the cap on your engine, usually labeled "Oil" and find the dipstick that should be close by on the engine block. Do this when the engine's had a chance to cool down, or do it first thing in the morning to get the most accurate reading. Remove the dipstick and wipe off the oil with a paper towel or rag.     Examine the rag. Is the oil especially black? Do you notice any sediment, or chunky-looking oil? If so, you're probably in need of an oil change. Put the dipstick back and remove it once more to check the level. Notches on the dipstick should tell you how full the compartment should be.     If you're low, remove the cap and add a small amount of a high-grade motor oil appropriate for your type of engine. Ask at the auto parts store if you're unsure about what kind of oil to use. Use a funnel to avoid spillage, and recheck the level once you've topped it off.    Nothing's worse than a busted tire at the wrong moment, when you're running late to work in the rain. No thanks. Regularly inspecting tires and rotating them can help to avoid this irritation. Check both the air pressure in your tires, and check the tread for wear and replace the tires if you need to. You can use a pressure gauge at most gas stations, or you can buy one for a few dollars at an auto parts store and keep it in your glove box for regular checks. Open the driver's side door and look at the sticker on the doorjamb — this will tell you the recommended pressure for your tires. There is also a number printed on your tires, but this is the maximum PSI for your tires, which is generally more PSI than you want or need. Don't over-inflate. Keeping your tires inflated to the proper specifications improves gas mileage and handling.   ...

TL;DR in English: Check the oil and top it off if necessary. Inspect the tires. Check other fluid levels Inspect the battery. Test your brakes Check your lights.

Before you drop hints, be aware that relationships could potentially be different. If someone realizes that you are LGBT, it might cause strain. Sometimes friendships change. However, you should also know that sometimes relationships change for the better.   For example, maybe the person you are interested in realizes that you two might work out as a couple. Some of your relationships may become strained, and it may be a while before they go back to normal. Before you drop hints to your parents, make sure that you are prepared to have an honest discussion with them if they ask what your clues mean. Hopefully, your parents will be immediately supportive. Sometimes parents express shock, sadness, or even anger when they learn their child is LGBT.  Your parents will likely have a lot of questions for you. Have some resources ready for them. For example, you can direct them to PFLAG's website at https://www.pflag.org/loving-families. Make a safety plan just in case. If you think there is a chance your parents might react negatively, plan ahead and have a safe place to go. Ask a friend if you can stay at their house for a few days. If you are worried about anyone’s reaction to your hints, it’s a good idea to have a support system in place. If you are already out to a friend or family member, let them know that you might need some extra support in the near future. You could also get support from your local LGBT community center. Sometimes people need time to process information and how they feel about it. Some people will have a reaction, but they're not sure what to say. That's okay. Try to allow them space and time to work out how they feel. Understand that people won't always have a reaction to learning about your sexual orientation. Know that it is normal for people to change their initial reaction after they have fully processed your news. For example, maybe a friend initially acts withdrawn. They might be back to normal in a couple of days or weeks.

TL;DR in English: Accept that some relationships might change. Make a plan for coming out to your parents. Find a support system. Be patient while people process their feelings.

Don’t take the unclean pallet inside your home. Use a garden house or power washer to give the whole pallet an initial rinse. This should wash away any debris. Allow the pallet to dry. Reclaimed wood may contain insects, for example, that you wouldn’t want indoors. Try using a hammer, pry bar and cat’s paw to take apart the pallet without breaking it. If a pry bar doesn’t finish the job, a nail punch or drill can drive the nails out. Alternatively, you can cut through exposed nails with an oscillating tool, or cut through the planks themselves. Disassemble the pallet if you want to use the planks instead of the whole pallet in one piece. Place the pallet or planks between sawhorses. Rub the wood’s surface with the grain, starting with a coarse sandpaper and moving up to a fine grade. Sand the entire pallet so that it is smooth to the touch and won’t create splinter.  Make sure to sand your pallet outdoors, wearing safety goggles and a respirator to avoid dust issues.  If you opt not to sand the pallet, only use it somewhere that family and guests won’t touch it, since rough wood can cause splinter. In a bucket, combine five parts water to one part dish detergent. Alternatively, you can use a solution of one part detergent, ten parts bleach and twenty parts water. Use a scrub brush to scrub all of the wood with the solution. Scrub notches and grooves vigorously.  Wear old clothes and rubber gloves. If you’re using bleach, you should also wear safety goggles and a face mask. You may want to use bleach if you have a reason to suspect mold or mildew. Don’t combine bleach with any products that contain ammonia. Use a garden hose or power washer to rinse all the solution from the wood. Use the solution and your scrub brush to clean the wood a second time. Rinse the pallet a final time, then leave it in the sun until it’s dry.

TL;DR in English: Hose the pallet outdoors. Disassemble the pallet, if desired. Sand the wood. Scrub the wood with a soap solution. Rinse the wood and scrub it again.

They usually take place in the beginning or middle of August, and may be before school starts. Check the high school’s website for details. Make sure that you get the date and time for tryouts at your grade level. For instance, freshmen and sophomores might be eligible for any team, whereas juniors and seniors may be required to place on a specific varsity team. Read the instructions about tryouts to find out which one you should attend. If you make the team, you’ll need to balance the stresses of school with a rigorous athletic schedule. For instance, a high school soccer team may have four days of practice per week, plus games and your individual conditioning and practice.  The school will most likely require that you maintain at least average academic performance in order to stay on a school team. High schools often post team rules on their websites, so check the sports section of the school’s site for any such lists, and read them thoroughly. You want to know exactly what will be required of you. Plan to attend every practice, meeting and game. Schools may not accept unexcused absences from practices and games, and may not even accept certain excused absences (depending on school policy). The Cooper Test measures how far you can run in twelve minutes, so make sure that you can run for at least twelve minutes straight. This shows coaches that you will have the stamina to run during the games. You may also be asked to sprint specific distances, such as the 40-yard dash.  Practice alternating between jogging and sprinting as you build up the endurance to sprint. Make a schedule by yourself or with a personal trainer, that works backwards on the calendar from the date of tryouts to gradually increase your speed and distance. There may be a roll call or the coach may ask students to give a brief introduction, such as your name and why you’re interested in making the soccer team. This will likely be followed by collective or individual warmups. Practice warmups on your own, so that you will know how to warmup...

TL;DR in English:


Employ a lightweight rod for buzzbaits and spinnerbaits. Employ a sensitive and lightweight rod for crankbaits and topwater lures. Employ a sensitive and lightweight graphite rod when using jigs or plastic/rubber lures.

This is the angle of practicality. Someone with a large bump at this point will be good with his or her hands. In fact, these hands will virtually be able to think for themselves.

Increasingly often, malls are welcoming spas and massage centers into their halls. Take advantage of this and get a full-body massage or facial treatment after a day of browsing through shops. Make sure you mention any medical conditions or injuries you have before booking a spa appointment. Broken skin, for instance, might disqualify you from getting a facial. If you like makeup, you can visit a makeup counter and get a free makeover, and ask for tips for your skin type. Many skincare counters are happy to provide these services in the hopes of selling new products, so don’t be afraid to ask for a sample of a product you might be on the fence about. This is a great option if you are looking for a makeup product to do a specific job, such as reduce under eye circles or make your lips pop. Visit your mall’s candy, chocolate, or pastry shop and indulge on a few treats. You can purchase a chocolate croissant and enjoy it right there, or you can stock up on some sweet treats to take home and eat throughout the next few weeks. Use this opportunity to try something new. You can ask to see any new candy or specials, or you can ask the clerks what their favorites are. Bring along your favorite book (or a new tome from the bookstore), and sit down to a cafeteria lunch. You can eat while you read, absorbing the sounds and smells around you while you immerse yourself in a new world. Many malls have coffee shops in them, as well, so you may even be able to cozy up in an armchair and sip a latté as you read. You can visit a department store and request to have your measurements taken. You can then use this information if ever you need to take an item to a tailor, order an item online, or complete alterations yourself. Although you can do your own measurements, doing so can be tricky, so why not enlist the help of a professional? Sizing is particularly important for bras, so if you wear a bra, use your time alone to find out what size you should actually be wearing. Malls are often used as testing grounds for new therapy...

TL;DR in English: Book a spa appointment. Visit a makeup counter. Splurge on a few treats. Have lunch with a favorite book. Get your measurements taken. Try out new relaxation techniques.

Use a unique skill or ability that you already possess and make it appear more impressive. Maybe you have great drumming skills, a stellar singing voice, or the ability to make complicated balloon animals. You can then take your ability to the next level by adding in a surprising or interesting element.  Think of creative ways to impress the judges with your talent and show them how well you can do the talent even in less than ideal circumstances.  You may want to enlist friends to perform with you and create an act where you all drum together on stage. Or you may ask friends who can play instruments to be your backing band for your singing performance. You can then create synchronized movements as a band that you perform together during the act. If you have a more specialized talent, like making balloon animals or juggling, you may want to add in an element of difficulty that will appear impressive to the judges. This could be making a huge balloon animal within a certain time limit or making balloon animals while riding a unicycle or running on a treadmill. When you are creating your act, you should showcase your strengths as a performer. This will help you feel more comfortable when you perform and more confident. You will also be at your best when you are catering to your strengths, as this can help to hide your weaknesses as a performer.  If you are more comfortable in costume when performing in front of others, come up with a unique costume that ties into your act. Maybe you wear an updated clown costume for your juggling act or a long, glamorous gown for your jazz singing performance with a band. Think about how you can use costume as a way to feel comfortable and confident on stage. You may be at ease when you move and dance around the stage, as opposed to staying in one place. Integrate this into your act, where you do a coordinated dance with the other people in your act or do a dance to fit your act if you are on stage alone. Stage props can be as simple as a microphone stand or as complex as...

TL;DR in English: Take a unique skill or ability you already have and improve on it. Cater to your strengths as a performer. Include stage props. Get the audience involved in your act.

Their freakishly long legs make them very fast so you'll have to be quick.  Centipedes don't usually invade homes in large numbers, so you may be able to get rid of your problem just by stomping on, or bug-spraying, every one you see. Note that if you are afraid to even approach or be near the centipede, even vacuum cleaners won't be useful. If you don't want to kill the centipede, you can try to catch it in a jar and release it outside, but this usually leads to a high-pitched scream, a broken jar, and a free centipede. Just place them in corners and crevices where centipedes tend to hunt. You may also catch other insects that are sneakily crawling around your home. Know that larger centipedes that walk over sticky or glue traps may escape by simply leaving behind a couple legs. Sticky traps are most effective for smaller centipedes, not larger ones. Keep in mind that insecticides are only temporary solutions. Any garden supply store will carry these products. Just make sure to follow the package directions.  Even though these products shouldn't kill pets or humans, it's best not to have prolonged contact with them.  Sticky traps could possibly alert you to heavy traffic areas, allowing you to spray these areas or place more sticky traps. If one of your sticky traps turns out to be really popular and none of your other ones do, chances are the popular one is where you should focus most of your attention. If you want to kill the centipedes, but you don’t want to poison the earth, yourself, or your pets, you can use natural pesticides like boric acid or food grade diatomaceous earth for continual centipede control.  Products containing pyrethroids (cyfluthrin, deltamethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, permethrin or tralomethrin) will exterminate centipedes on contact, and can be used as a fog or spray. Whether it's chemical insecticide, natural insecticide, or other, think about creating a moat-like barrier around the outside of your house. Because centipedes originate outside and come inside. When they...

TL;DR in English: Kill them on sight! Try setting up sticky traps. Try an insecticide if none of these natural remedies work. Put down a barrier around your entire home. Look for professional help.

The ideal rod is lightweight, 6.5–7 feet (2.0–2.1 m), with a medium action and medium soft tip. It’s important to ensure you use a sensitive rod because bass will often bump the blade before it strikes.  The lighter the rod is, the more sensitive the rod will be. A shorter rod will give you more accuracy in your cast but a longer rod will give your more power to set your hook, leverage when reeling in your bass, and distance to your cast. The ideal rod is lightweight, sensitive, 6–7 feet (1.8–2.1 m), fiberglass, and has a medium action tip or a light action tip based on the weight of your lure.  A medium action rod can also be used if it can set the hook and be flexible during your cast. A ⅛-ounce lure needs a light tip while a 314-ounce lure needs a medium tip. A sensitive rod helps you determine what type of structure you’re coming into contact with. A 7 ft (2.1 m) rod is effective when casting out a far distance and when using heavier baits. A 6 foot rod are more effective for accuracy when trying to cast towards fallen trees or in between structures. Fiberglass rods allow bass to inhale the hook before it’s set as the flex on the rod keeps the hook from becoming dislodged. The ideal rod is lightweight, extremely sensitive, 6.5–7 feet (2.0–2.1 m), graphite, and has medium action and a medium light tip.  When fishing deep water, sensitivity and weight are imperative so you can feel the bites without getting fatigued from holding up the rod in a 9 to 10 o’clock position over long periods of time. Use a 6.5 ft (2.0 m) rod when fishing structures 20 feet (6.1 m) or deeper and a 7.5 ft (2.3 m) rod when fishing anywhere shallower than 20 feet (6.1 m). Graphite is faster and more sensitive than fiberglass, which allows you to set the hook fast. It’s vital to have a soft tip to ensure that there’s tension with the bass at all times as you can easily lose a fish if only the point of the hook is embedded.

TL;DR in English:


Lubricate all PVC connection points for easier installation. Snap the guttering section(s) into place. Attach 2 “offset bends” to the drain outlet to start the downspout. Mark the spot for the downspout’s bottom bracket. Screw the downspout brackets into the side of the shed. Cut and install a section of downspout along the shed wall. Connect another offset bend and a section of downspout tubing.

As soon as you start feeling overheated, stop what you’re doing and sit or lie down. Be as still as possible so that your body temperature will start to go down. If you feel dizzy or confused, ask someone to call for help while you rest. If someone else is feeling overheated, walk them over to a place where they can relax. If you’re experiencing heat exhaustion, you need to cool down quickly. If possible, go indoors to an air conditioned spot or sit in front of a fan. If you’re helping someone who’s experiencing heat exhaustion or a possible heat stroke, help them move to a cool location. They may be disoriented.

TL;DR in English: Stop being active and rest. Move to a shaded, cooler location.

When you create a plastic canvas, you don't want any loose threads hanging from your masterpiece. To accomplish this, and secure your row of stitches in the process, you need to stitch over the tail.  Thread your needle with approximately three feet of yarn or floss. Insert the needle through the backside of the canvas until you are left with a two-inch tail of yarn or floss. Hold the tail against the back of your canvas so that it runs along your stitch line. Execute your stitches over the tail until it is completely covered. When you complete a row or rows of stitches, you do not want to mar your creation with a bulky knot or a hanging tail. To create a clean, finish on the back of the canvas:  Flip the canvas so that its back faces up. Insert your needle and yarn through several completed stitches. Pull the yarn or floss tight. Trim the yarn or floss as close to the canvas as possible. There are two basic stitches you may use to finish the edges of your plastic canvas: the lark's head knot and the overcast stitch. The lark's head knot is used to create a fringe edge. On patterns this stitch appears as “larks head.”  Insert the needle through the top of the canvas at an edge hole. Pull the thread or yarn to the left side. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at the same hole. Create a loop in the thread or yarn. The loop will hang from the backside of the canvas. Insert the tails through the loop and pull tight. Repeat. If you prefer a clean edge, use an overcast stitch instead of a lark's head knot. On patterns, this stitch appears as “overcast.”  Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at an edge hole. Wrap the thread or floss tightly against the edge of the canvas. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at the neighboring edge hole. Wrap the thread or floss tightly against the edge of the canvas. Repeat. Produce one stitch per hole along the edge and inner corner of the canvas. Create 2 to 3 stitches per hole located on the outside corners. If you need to create a larger...

TL;DR in English: Start a row of stitches. Finish a row of stitches. Create a fringe edge. Create a clean edge. Connect pieces of plastic canvas.

Crush five or six tablets of aspirin and mix them with one-half teaspoon (3 g) of lemon juice and water. Apply the resulting paste to the affected area, then wrap it with a warm towel and cover it with a plastic bag. Leave it for about ten minutes and then remove the coverings. Scrape off the calluses with a pumice stone. Again, if you're diabetic, don't try this treatment. Also, if you're allergic to aspirin, do not use this method. One of the best ways you can treat corns and calluses is with a warm-water soak. This loosens the dead skin and helps with healing. Add 3 tablespoons baking soda to a basin of warm water and soak -- baking soda has a pH of 9 and is therefore alkaline and can disrupt the skin barrier. Or massage calluses with a paste of 3 parts baking soda to 1 part water. Soaking your feet in diluted chamomile tea can be soothing and will temporarily change the pH of the skin to help dry out sweaty feet. The tea will stain your feet, but the stain can be easily removed with soap and water. Sprinkle cornstarch between your toes to keep the area dry and protect the skin from breaking down. Moisture can make a corn or callus feel miserable and can promote fungal infections.  This is more preventative than anything and should be used to eliminate discomfort. Soak a cotton ball in vinegar and tape it to your corn or callus. Leave the vinegar-soaked cotton on overnight. In the morning, rub the area with a pumice stone. Make sure to attach the cotton ball only to the callus itself. You don't want to irritate the skin around it that is doing just fine. Pineapple peel contains certain enzymes which help in softening corns and calluses and removing them from the skin. Place a small piece of fresh pineapple peel over the affected area and wrap a clean cloth around it. Do this every night for a week. You can also apply pineapple juice to the corns.

TL;DR in English: Use aspirin to soften your calluses. Try baking soda. Put chamomile tea in your soak. Utilize cornstarch. Consider using vinegar. Put a pineapple to good use.

Spray the cut ends of the guttering with a lubricant like WD-40. Lubricating these and all other connection points will make snapping or pressing the PVC into place much easier. PVC guttering simply snaps into place at the standard brackets, joint brackets, drain outlet section, and (if applicable) “stopend” section. Feed one end of the half-tube shaped guttering under the lip of each bracket where it’s attached to the fascia board. Then push down to snap the guttering into place, under the lip on the outer side of each bracket. If your chosen PVC guttering doesn’t come with dedicated “stopend” sections that you attach to the fascia, snap a water-tight “stopend” piece onto the open end of the guttering. The downspout will be made of fully-enclosed tubes, and the “offset bend” sections are short tubes bent at 112.5 degree angles. Spray lubricant onto each end of the offset bends, press them together firmly, then press them onto the stub of the drain outlet section that points downward. The sections of tubing should be snug in place, but you’ll still be able to twist them so that you can align the offset bends to point straight downward right up against the side of the shed. Use a level and a chalk line tool (or a string and tape or nails) to create a line on the shed’s wall that drops straight down from the opening of the offset bends. Mark the location for the lowest bracket about 50 cm (roughly 1.5 feet) from the ground if your downspout will spill out onto lower ground. However, if the ground is level or slopes up, place the lowest bracket at 1 m (roughly 3 feet) so the downspout will spill out further away from the shed. Install a downspout bracket at the lower mark you just made, and another just below the offset bends. Then add others down the string line at intervals no more than 1 m (roughly 3 ft) apart. Once again, mark the holes, pre-drill, and use 25 mm (1 inch) screws. Measure and cut it so that it runs from the offset bends to just below the bottom bracket. Use a hacksaw to cut the PVC downspout...

TL;DR in English:


Buy seeds or veggie starts from a garden center. Test the soil and purchase necessary amendments. Remove all of the weeds and vegetation where you are going to plant your vegetables. Break up and amend the soil.

When possible, mount floating shelves on your walls to hold lightweight items like books, figurines, and small electronics. For bulkier items like musical instruments and potted plants, see if you can hang them by attaching adhesive hooks or anchor screws to the wall. Bulky items like pots and pans can take up a lot of unnecessary space in your kitchen cabinets. To fix this, try hooking them onto a wall-mounted pot rack or similar device. This will open up a lot of extra space for heavier and more fragile items. Instead of a professional pot rack, try purchasing a large pegboard. This will allow you to arrange your supplies in any way you see fit, conserving space in the long run. In many cases, concealed or walk-in pantries take up a lot of room they don’t need to. Creating an open-faced pantry with a free standing or wall mounted shelf system will better utilize the available space while encouraging you to pare down and organize the supplies you already have. Instead of using it to store food, keep bulky and non-perishable supplies in your pantry. Even if a room is perfectly organized, it may still feel cramped and uncomfortable to live in. Thankfully, there are some ways to rectify this without taking up more room:  Floor to ceiling curtains will create long lines along the wall, making your house look taller. Large mirrors will act like a portal to another room, making the area seem deeper. The color of your walls can alter how large or small your house looks. To make a room appear bigger, paint the walls a bright or pastel color. In addition, cover any wall trimmings in an even lighter shade of paint, creating a subtle contrast that makes objects look further apart. Some good color choices include:  Off-white Beige Baby blue Pastel green

TL;DR in English: Store items high on the wall. Install a pot rack in your kitchen to hold cooking supplies. Create an open-faced pantry to free up useful space. Hang up drapes and mirrors to create the illusion of space. Paint your room with light or contrasting colors to make it look bigger.

Then take three more random cards from the deck as well. This trick requires that you gimmick the deck a little bit before you start.  For the Four Robbers, you're going to make your spectators think you’ve put the Jacks into the middle of the deck. In reality, you’ll place the three other cards you've taken into the deck. These three other cards will be stacked on top of three of the Jacks during the trick. This trick involves a story, begin your story by telling your audience about four Jacks that decided to rob a bank. Hold the four Jacks, fanned out vertically in your hand. All four Jacks should be able to be observed by the audience at the same time. Hold the three random cards behind the Jack that’s on top so the audience cannot see them. This is essential to the trick.  If you are having trouble hiding the other cards, hold them in place by putting your index finger on the top edge of the cards. Once you have given your audience a bit of time to see the Jacks, square the cards together. For this part of the story, you can say that the four Jacks helicoptered into the bank, or simply snuck in through the roof. This trick relies on some good storytelling. You can tell the story as if the Jacks are robbing a bank, or about how four robbers entered a house to rob different floors. Take the top three cards of the deck off one at a time, inserting them into the different levels as you tell your story.  Tell the story dramatically. The more detail you provide concerning what the Jacks are looking for and what the robbers are planning to do with the cash, the more engaged your audience will be. An immersive story will distract your audience from what you’re doing with your hands. This trick can be performed with any set of face cards, not only Jacks.

The insoles are the cushioned pads inside your shoes. Grab the insoles and take them out of your shoes so they’re able to dry faster. Keep the insoles in a sunny window or in front of a fan to prevent them from developing any odors or mold.  If your shoe doesn’t have insoles or you cannot remove them, then you can skip this step. However, it may take longer for your shoes to dry. You can use newspapers on any shoe style or material.

TL;DR in English: Pull out your shoes’ insoles and set them aside to dry.

Raise your back heel without lifting the ball of your foot. In one motion, turn your foot and back knee towards your target. It’s okay if your leg dips down a little as you do this. The power of a straight punch starts with the legs, and pivoting inwards helps generate torque for your upper body.  In combat sports, a straight punch refers to a compact, direct strike that is thrown with the dominant hand. It is more powerful than a jab, but faster than a hook. It’s what most people think of when they picture a regular punch. Take a 6–12 in (15–30 cm) step forward if you need to before doing this. To do this, shuffle your front foot forward before sliding your back foot back under your shoulder. Only do this if you think you’ll struggle to strike your target.  Strategically, a straight punch is the best tool in your arsenal. It’s easier to land than a flashy, over-the-top haymaker, but it’s more powerful than a quick jab. As your back foot and knee finish twisting, begin rotating your hips and chest towards your target. At this point, your hands and arms should still be roughly where they were in the original fighting position. Keep your forearm pointing up towards the sky as your hips and chest rotate forward. Once you turn 10-20 degrees towards the target, let your dominant arm follow your chest. Extend it straight towards your target, allowing your wrist to naturally turn inward.  Do your best to avoid looping your arm out away from your and towards your target. It may feel more comfortable if you aren’t a trained fighter, but you actually lose a lot of power when you do that. It’s also more dangerous, since your hand is more likely to hit the target at an angle. Let your nondominant hand float 6–12 inches (15–30 cm) to the side as you do this, but keep it raised. Don’t lower your nondominant hand in the event that you need to protect yourself after the punch lands. Continue extending your arm straight towards your target while turning your wrist inwards. To the best of your ability, hit the target with your...

TL;DR in English: Pivot your back foot and turn your knee inward to initiate the punch. Twist your hips and chest towards your target. Extend your fist and allow your arm to turn inwards as you strike. Strike the target with your middle knuckle and follow through.

If purchasing seeds, pick a brand that seems dependable and pick vegetable strains that seem reliable. You may want to do some research before you go to the garden center to decide exactly which type of each vegetable you want. If you are purchasing vegetable starts, pick plants that seem healthy and do not have discoloration or spots.  Consider whether you want organic or non-GMO veggie starts or seeds. While some people do not have a problem with genetic modification or pesticides, others do not what these kind of processes involved in the propagation of their food. It's up to you. You can also get good quality seeds and plants from springtime farmer’s markets, seed swaps hosted by local organizations, and online seed catalog companies. These amendments will depend on the current status of your soil and the needs of the vegetables you want to plant. If you have never planted before in the location you are using, take a soil sample and conduct a soil test. There are tests available at any garden center that will tell you the ph of your soil. Soil can go from very acidic all the way to very alkaline, as well as going from very sandy to very clay like. Figure out what kind of soil you have and try to move it more toward neutral by adding amendments. After assessing the soil, add some compost to it. Compost adds organic matter that breaks down and basically becomes food for your plant. Take the time to weed before you plant your veggies. Weeds will compete for nutrients with your new plants, making their success less likely. Get all the weeds from their roots, as many weeds can regenerate if even a bit of their roots are left intact. You will want to cultivate, or break up, the soil in an area a bit larger than where your plants will actually be. The root systems of many plants will grow to be quite large, moving outward from where the plant is initially planted. You can break the soil up by digging with a shovel or using a roto-tiller. As you mix the soil, add in any amendments you need to add based on the...

Put down the placemat. Add any additional plates and utensils that you may need.

Some diseases and conditions can predispose you to kidney disease or may even make kidney disease worse. Try to get yourself as healthy as possible to help your kidneys repair themselves.  For example, if you have high blood pressure, then talk to your doctor about what you can do to lower your blood pressure. If you have diabetes, then do what you can to get your diabetes under control. A family history of kidney disease may also predispose you to kidney disease, so make sure that you take extra precautions if you have a parent, sister, or grandparent who has kidney disease. . Getting regular exercise can help you to stay in good overall health, prevent weight gain, and reduce blood pressure. If you are healthy enough for exercise, then you should try to get 30 minutes of physical activity five days of every week.  Check with your doctor to be sure that exercise is a good idea for you. Try to find something that you will enjoy so that you will stick with it. For example, you might find that you enjoy swimming, biking, hiking, dancing, or a combination of these activities. . Smoking damages your blood vessels and decreases blood flow to your kidneys. Since blood is necessary for healthy tissues, a lack of blood can cause damage and may also make it hard for your kidneys to repair themselves. Smoking also increases your risk of developing kidney cancer, as well as other conditions such as high blood pressure. Ask your doctor about smoking cessation programs and medications that may help you quit smoking. When taken too often, ibuprofen, naproxen, and other over-the-counter pain medicines can lead to kidney damage. If you take these medications on a daily basis, talk to your doctor about other options to manage pain. Keep in mind that it is okay to use over-the-counter medicines for occasional pain, but frequent use can lead to kidney damage. If you are concerned about your kidney function or if you are at risk of developing kidney problems due to a family history of kidney disease, then ask your doctor for...

TL;DR in English: Get other diseases and conditions under control. Exercise Quit smoking Use over-the-counter pain killers in moderation. Request tests to check your kidney function.

The race starts at 5 am, so it's important to get there early. It's important to know the marathon route, as all streets are closed overnight and re-opened during certain hours throughout the day. Avoid thinking and concentrating on running like it's the only thing on your mind. There are lots of Pacific Ocean sights over Kalanianaole Highway and Diamond Head, so take a breath and enjoy the views. Take advantage of any water cups or sponges as you move along. Even if it's throwing the water on your hair or the back of your shirt, you will feel better and more energized. The marathon doubles up along Kalanianaole Highway, so cheer on encouragement to those on the other side of the road. There is a lot of Aloha spirit and even if it's cheering on a Japanese participant, everyone has fun.

TL;DR in English: Arrive at Ala Moana Beach Park. Take in the views. Hydrate yourself at all times. Cheer on others.

Some AmEx cards carry an annual fee that must be paid just to be a cardholder. The cards with the highest annual fees often also provide the best benefits, but unless you will be using your card a lot, these perks may not outweigh the cost of having the card.  Many AmEx cards do not have annual fees; these are generally the entry-level, basic credit cards, such as the Blue Cash Everyday card. These cards may offer lower credit limits or less attractive benefits than cards with annual fees. Annual fees (excluding those associated with corporate accounts) range from $75 (USD) for a Hilton HHonors Surpass card to $450 for the Platinum and Delta Reserve cards. Some card options waive the annual fee for the first year and begin charging after that. The AmEx Green and Premier Rewards Gold cards are examples of these. If you carry a balance on your AmEx credit card (or any credit card) from month to month, you will be charged interest fees according to the annual percentage rate (APR) associated with your card. You don't want to end up with a credit card with interest rates so high you can't pay down your balance, so explore your options carefully.  Credit account disclosure materials always include this information, but sometimes the language can be hard to understand. Ask an AmEx representative to explain the fine print associated with each card's APR. APRs can be fixed, variable, or a combination of the two. Fixed interest means that you will always pay the same percentage rate in interest; variable interest can change with the market rate and could get much higher than it was when you got the card. Combined APRs have a fixed rate plus a variable market rate. A card's APR can be changed at any time without prior notice. If you get an AmEx card, be on the lookout for notices about APR revisions. Interest rates often differ for different types of purchases, balance transfers, and cash advances. Make yourself aware of all terms and conditions of your card that relate to interest, especially those associated with...

TL;DR in English: Decide what you're willing to pay in annual fees. Look into card APRs. Select a rewards program. Understand how your creditworthiness factors in.

Do you find yourself running a lot of errands for your boss that are not in your job description, constantly babysitting your cousin’s children, bailing your son out of trouble every time you turn around, doing your “study” partner’s work just so you can be done? Do you cancel plans because the other person had a rough day and needs to talk? If you’re doing these types of things for someone on a regular basis – for free – consider yourself being taken advantage of, unfortunately.  It's important to set boundaries when dealing with someone you think is taking advantage of you. Your boundaries should limit the impact their behaviors have on you. For example, you might tell them that you won't answer your phone after 9:00 p.m., even if it's an "emergency." Be sure to follow through with consequences if they violate your boundaries.  Unless they are doing as much for you, even if in other ways, pull back on your support. You will likely meet resistance, so kindly explain your reasons. It’s in their hands at that point. Rent is due in three days, but your friend still hasn’t returned the $300 you lent her three weeks ago. A colleague “borrows” an idea, then basks in the glory when others rave about his or her brilliance. If someone is constantly borrowing from you but not returning (or crediting) what’s borrowed, that person is, essentially, stealing from you right under your nose. Stealing from you and using you are on the same side of the coin, which is not heads up for you.  In the case of borrowed items, ask the person to return what’s been borrowed before you lend anything else. If nothing’s returned, don’t loan again. In the case of borrowed ideas, decide if addressing the issue would create a bigger issue. If not, talk about it and in the future be careful about what you share and with whom. Pull out your calculators and add up how much the person is costing you. Is your partner living with you for free, or only paying the utility bills, for instance? Do you find yourself always picking up the restaurant...

TL;DR in English: Cut back on how much you help. Try to ensure that what's borrowed is returned. Don’t spend more than you can afford on the other. Stop coming to their rescue so frequently. Resist the desire to try harder. Discuss your feelings of resentment.

Put a placemat in front of each of the chairs you've set up for your guests. For a true formal dinner setting, you should have enough matching placemats for all of the guests, and the placemats should also match the tablecloth. If your meal includes more courses or items, you may need to add the following additional plates and utensils:  A bread and butter plate and knife. Place this small round plate about five inches above the forks. Place a small knife horizontally over the plate, with the blade facing to the left. A dessert fork and spoon. Place the small dessert fork and spoon horizontally a few inches above the plate, with the spoon on top of the fork facing left, and the fork facing right. A coffee cup. Place the coffee cup over a small saucer a few inches above the outermost utensil on the left and a few inches to the left of it. A red and white wine glass. If you have two different glasses, then the white wine glass will be the one closer to the guest, and the red wine glass will be slightly above and to the left of the white wine glass. You can remember this because guests should move from white to red wine.

Create a study date. Test each other’s knowledge. Read each other’s essay answers. Follow a routine.

The first thing you need to do is give the girl some space. If you start knocking down her door and calling her every five minutes she'll only pull further away from you. The amount of space and time you give her depends on what happened when you tried to date her. If you ended a serious relationship, you'll need to give her more space than you would if you had just dated a few times.  Don't call her, chat with her at parties, or email her just to see how she's doing. If you see her socially, be polite and say hi, but make it clear that you're not going to bother her. Just don't give her too much space. If you leave her alone for a few months, that will give her plenty of time to find someone new. Not only should you give her some space, but you should give yourself some space to reflect and think about what went wrong in the relationship. Take the time to sit down and ask what you did to make her not want you; were you too attentive, too moody, or too distant? Whatever you did, you have to make sure never to do it again if you want a moment of her day.  Write down the things that went wrong. Consider what you can do to improve this kind of behavior. Don't date anyone else during the reflection period. Focus on self-improvement and working on not repeating the same mistakes. Don't pursue her until you've figured out what went wrong and know how to change it. Though you should avoid getting busy in the bedroom while you're trying to win your girl back, you should try to live a busy and active life so you can work on being independent and pursuing your interests. If you're just sitting around waiting for enough time to pass to start trying to hang out with her again, she'll know.  Continue pursuing your hobbies and interests. Don't stop doing all of the things you love because your heart is aching. Spend time with your friends. They'll cheer you up and lend you a fresh perspective. Work out. Your self-esteem will improve if you exercise a few times a week, and all the better if she sees you out running. Once...

TL;DR in English: Give her some space. Give yourself some time to reflect. Stay busy. Let her see you having a great time. Make her jealous (optional).

Place one half of your acorn squash seed-side down on the cutting board. Cut the squash into 1/2 to 3/4 inch slices by carefully cutting across the ridges.  You don't need to peel acorn squash before cutting or preparing it. Slicing the acorn squash thinly ensures that it will cook faster than if you simply roast half of the squash or bake large wedges of squash. To make large wedges, lay one half of your squash seed-side down on the cutting board. Carefully cut lengthwise along each ridge of the acorn squash to make wedges. Cutting the squash into wedges keeps more of its rustic shape and gives you larger pieces to serve. If you'd like to peel your acorn squash, cut them into wedges first. This will make it easier to hold the squash while peeling. If you need cubed or chunked acorn squash for a recipe, start by cutting the squash into wedges. Once you've sliced the wedges, you can peel each individual wedge. Lay the wedge so that one side lays flat on a cutting board. Take a knife and cut each wedge into cubes or chunks. You can cut the cubes or chunks to any size you would like. Keep in mind that if you're roasting the squash with other root vegetables, you should keep them all the same size. When cutting your acorn squash in half, ensure that you cut it crosswise. Once you've scooped out the seeds from both halves, take a sharp knife and cut the squash in half crosswise again. This will make one ring. Continue cutting rings until you reach the end on each half of the squash. You can cut the rings as thick as you like. Many recipes call for the rings to be sliced between 1/2 and inch and 1 inch.

TL;DR in English: Slice the acorn squash. Cut the squash into wedges. Cut the squash into cubes. Cut the squash into rings.

Before you do anything else, you need to create an appearance and ambiance that will make your partner want to kiss you. You don't need to go to great lengths to make yourself desirable, though. More often than not, a little basic grooming will do the trick.  For guys, give yourself a good, close shave beforehand. Stubble often feels rough and uncomfortable to women and could take away from the pleasure of the kiss. A dab of cologne can also be a good idea, but don't bathe yourself in it. For women, applying an appealing scent can also be a powerful tool. Focus mostly on lotions since these make your skin look smoother while providing a more subtle hint of fragrance. Add a hint of body spray or perfume on top of that.    Moist, soft lips are far more kissable than dry, cracked lips. A little basic lip care can go a long way, so if your lips are prone to drying out, start applying the lip balm before you meet up with your intended kissing partner.  Lip balm can be used by men and women alike. Men with an aversion to lip care products should at least consider using an unscented, matte balm to maintain a certain degree of moisture. Women can wear glosses, lip stains, and lipsticks, as well, but there are a few things to keep in mind. Avoid sticky glosses or lip products that contain glitter. Something will a little sheen can make your lips seem more kissable, but you don't want your lips to look unnaturally wet, either.  If you don't have time to moisten your lips before the kiss, quickly run your tongue over your lips to add a little more moisture.    No matter how far the kiss goes, your partner will inevitably end up smelling your breath. Bad breath can make an otherwise good kiss turn sour, so keep your mouth clean and your breath fresh before you lean in.  Brush your teeth and your tongue shortly before the kiss, if possible. A quick swish of mouthwash could also help in a pinch. Avoid eating foods with strong odors before the kiss: garlic, curry, and so on. Suck on a mint before the kiss when all else...

TL;DR in English: Groom yourself. Prep your lips. Freshen your breath. Minimize distractions. Read the mood.

Measure the grass plug's root ball or eyeball its approximate length. Dip your shovel into the soil and dig a hole that's about the same depth and width as the root ball. Avoid making the hole deeper than the root ball, as too deep can bury your grass plug's top. Sprinkle a grass or starter fertilizer into the hole as recommended by the package instructions, based on the hole's depth. Starter fertilizers help create a hospitable place for grass plugs as they develop root systems in the soil. Buy a starter or grass plug fertilizer from a nearby garden center or plant nursery. Lower your grass plug into the hole and adjust it so the top stays upright. Fill the rest of the hole with soil, covering the entire root ball to prevent it from drying out later on. Avoid covering the grass plug's top with soil, as this can increase the risk of diseases and fungal infections. Once you've planted each grass plug into the soil, use your hose or watering can to water each one. Keep watering the soil until it is damp, but not waterlogged to prevent overwatering the plugs.

TL;DR in English: Dig a hole about the same size as the grass plug's root ball. Place a fertilizer in the bottom of the hole. Plant your grass plugs in the soil. Water the soil again after planting it.

Every now and then you might like to try studying in a small groups with some of your friends and classmates. This can have advantages and disadvantages, and will depend on how well you work together. Obviously if you end up just talking about other things you are not studying your geography, so you need some discipline. This might be easier for some than others, so if you are trying to work and your friend keeps chatting, try to steer them back on topic and then maybe study on your own in the future. One of the big advantages of studying a group is that you can test each other and see where you have gaps. You can do this by using the flashcards you prepared. Pick up a card and read out the term, such as “Igneous rock!” and see who is able to describe and define it more precisely.  This also works with maps. Draw the outline of a country on a piece of paper and use it as a quiz question. Or say the name of the country and see who can draw it. You can test capital cities in this way too. You can keep score to make it more fun. If your exam has essay questions, it can be very helpful to do a few practice answers and go through them with a friend. Compare how you have approached the question and analyse which of you has best answered the question. Pick out the strengths and weaknesses of each of your approaches, but remember your friend might not be right.  You can ask your teacher if they will look at a practice answer. You could also ask a parent or older sibling. By being faithful and applying yourself to your studies, you'll be able to memorize important facts and do well on the exam. Keep your discipline and stick to your study plan. Remember that you reap what you sow. If you do miss a session, don’t give yourself a really hard-time, but make it up over the next day or two with some extra study.

TL;DR in English:
