If you're making eggnog, custard, pudding, or ice cream, almost all recipes will start with scalded milk, or milk brought just to a boil. Whip your eggs in a heat-resistant bowl and go about the process of heating the milk over the stove according to the recipe you're using. For some recipes, you'll need to measure out the sugar into the eggs before you temper the eggs. If this is the case, measure it out and add it to the eggs. Whisk them together vigorously while the milk heats. Remove the milk from the heat after it's scalded and add a very small amount of milk to the heat-resistant bowl with the eggs and sugar in it. Use your ladle and spoon out about a tablespoon into your whipped eggs, whisking vigorously while you add. Make sure the eggs haven't curdled before adding more. If it helps, count to ten in between additions of milk, just to be sure you're not rushing it. That's slow enough that you'll probably be safe from curdling. Keep spooning the milk into the eggs, a little at a time, until you've transferred all the milk over to the egg bowl. Depending on what you're doing with the recipe, you might add this mixture to dry ingredients or chill it down for ice cream. Either way, you've tempered the eggs and you're ready to move forward with the recipe.

TL;DR in English: Heat milk just to boiling on the stove. Mix the appropriate amount of sugar into the eggs. Start with a few tablespoons of milk. Continue adding until all of the milk has been added.

If you are experiencing two or more of these symptoms, you may be experiencing heart failure. You should make an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible to get checked out. You should never rely on your own diagnosis, but go get checked out by a doctor immediately.  The symptoms of heart failure are not very specific and may be symptoms of other conditions. Heart failure causes your heart to get worse if left untreated. This is why it’s important to be seen by a doctor as soon as possible. If you experience any chest pain, fainting, weakness that impairs your functioning, severe shortness of breath, or pink, foamy mucus when you cough, you should contact emergency services. The first step in diagnosing heart failure is for your doctor to give you a physical exam. During this exam, the doctor will take your blood pressure and weigh you. They will check over your body, looking for signs of swelling in your legs and feet and around the abdomen. Your doctor will also use a stethoscope to listen to your heart, checking for anything that sounds abnormal. They will also check the sound of the lungs for any fluid. When you go to your appointment, your doctor will need certain information from you. You need to give them a list of your symptoms, including those that you may not believe are related to your heart failure. Be as detailed as possible.  You will need to tell your doctor about any personal or family medical history that is pertinent. You should share any personal or family history of heart disease, heart failure, high blood pressure, stroke, or even diabetes. You may need to tell your doctor about recent life changes or major stresses. Tell your doctor about all your medications, including vitamins and supplements you take. Your doctor may want to know about your dietary or exercise habits. Your doctor will ask you if you smoke, if you used to smoke, and about your alcohol consumption. If you think you are experiencing heart failure, you should ask your doctor questions about your symptoms,...

TL;DR in English: Go see your doctor. Get a physical exam. Share important information about yourself. Ask your doctor questions.

There are a variety of reasons why you may feel like your life sucks. If you experience a lot of daily stress, you may feel anxious or depressed. You may even have physical symptoms such as headaches or insomnia. Common sources of stress include:  Major life changes. If you're going through a period of upheaval, such as getting out of a relationship (or getting into one), changing your job, moving to a new place, etc., you're probably experiencing stress. New situations and life changes aren't very easy to adjust to, but you will make it if you keep the faith and have a positive, hopeful attitude. Family. If your family life is in disarray, you may feel upset, sad, or anxious. Perhaps you have a dysfunctional family, suicidal parents or have to take care of an elderly or sick family member. Work/School. Work or school obligations are a huge source of stress for most people. If you feel unappreciated at work or school, or stuck at a dead-end job, you may feel like your life sucks. Social life. If you're feeling isolated or disconnected, you may feel like your life sucks. Or, if you feel anxious about meeting new people or hanging out in social situations, you may experience stress if you have to do these things. One way to figure out a possible cause for your feelings is to identify when you feel them. Keeping a journal will also allow you to identify what elements of your situation you have control over, which will help you stay positive. In general, you should remember that you cannot control anything other than your own actions and responses.  For example, you might notice that you feel most upset and sad when you're at work. You may feel unacknowledged and unappreciated. You may feel overworked. This situation sucks. Ask yourself what elements you have control over. You can't control whether others appreciate or acknowledge your contributions. However, you might be able to be more assertive about owning your accomplishments. You can control whether you say "yes" to every project that crosses your desk. You...

Create an account with a missing persons database, such as NAMUS. NAMUS, also known as the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System, is a United States government funded website that allows law enforcement professionals and the general public to add and track missing person cases. Include basic details as well as photos and more specific information about the missing person. Provide as much information as possible that might help strangers identify the person you are looking for. Consider how they might look now as opposed to when they went missing. NAMUS allows account holders to make and print missing persons posters.  After you have created and printed some posters with information on your missing loved one, post and distribute these posters locally as well as in the areas where the person was last seen. Persistence is very important to finding lost or missing persons, so check your account daily and get involved in the website’s forums to connect with others who are going through the same thing as you are.

It is a myth that drinking water during a meal will harm your digestion. Instead, adding a beverage to your meal can actually help digestion. Cut out caffeinated beverages from your diet if you are having digestive issues such as stomach pain or heartburn. These can dehydrate you and cause excessive stomach acids to be produced. Digestion can be aided by chewing your food thoroughly. Chewing your food thoroughly allows your digestive system to do a better job at digestion because the food has already been broken down into small pieces and the food is covered in saliva, which contains enzymes that break down food. Remember that the digestive process begins as soon as the food enters your mouth. Eating smaller meals allows your digestive system to work more efficiently. Instead of overloading the system with a huge meal, multiple small meals allows the food to be properly digested, in addition to helping to maintain your blood sugar and maintain your metabolism. On that same note, avoid overeating. Eating too much food overwhelms your digestive system, requires excessive digestive acid, and doesn't allow you to digest food efficiently. Don't do a lot of activity right after eating. Allow your body to focus on digestion instead of physical activity. This will allow your body to use all the blood it needs for digestion instead of using it elsewhere in the body. Eating right before extreme physical activity, such as working out, can cause nausea, acid reflux, and vomiting. Instead, wait until after you exercise to eat a big meal.

TL;DR in English: Drink liquids during meals. Chew your food. Eat small, frequent meals. Give yourself time to digest.

Dip the brush into the bleach and scoop out some product. Then, starting from the bottom, paint the bleach onto your hair using upward strokes. Apply the bleach in a thick layer, ensuring that all strands are equally covered as you go. Work the bleach about halfway up your hair, stopping at the point where you’d like the bleach to ombré into your natural color.  Try to keep your bleach application as smooth and consistent as possible. This will lead to a smoother and more consistent ombré. Feel free to bleach a larger section of hair if you’d like your ombré to be less gradual. Make your ombre appear more like a gradient by applying thin streaks of bleach product to the upper half of your hair. Work in upward strokes, arranging these streaks randomly above the lower section of bleach. Try to use smaller amounts amount bleach for these random sections to vary up the ombré effect in your finished look. Try to avoid getting excess bleach mixture on your scalp, as this can irritate the skin. Read the label on your bleaching kit to see how long the hair bleach needs to stay on your hair. Depending on your hair color, you might need to wait around 30 minutes for your hair to lighten to the desired shade.  Don’t keep the bleach on for longer than the specified time. Someone with brown hair will probably need to keep the bleach product in for longer than an individual with blonde hair would. Set the faucet to a warm temperature and wash out the bleach beneath the running water. Keep your gloves on as you rinse your locks, using your fingers to get rid of any extra bleach clumps. Continue rinsing until your hair is completely bleach-free. When wet, your bleached hair will look significantly darker than its true shade. Pour a small amount of conditioner for bleached hair onto your hands and knead it into your scalp. Focus on the lower sections of hair, which were just exposed to bleach. Work the product into your hair until it reaches a foamy lather, then rinse it out. Read the label on the conditioner to see if the...

TL;DR in English: Use a brush to apply the bleach from the bottom up. Add highlighting streaks of bleach above your ombré line. Let the bleach sit for 30 minutes or less. Rinse off the bleach in the sink or bathtub. Massage a coin-sized amount of conditioner into your treated hair.

If you get anxious or frustrated when dealing with math and numbers you may have math phobia or anxiety. There are four common symptoms that can help you recognize if this is the case for you: panic, paranoia, passive behavior and lack of confidence. Ask yourself some of the following questions to see if you might have math phobia:  Panic: Do you feel a wave of helplessness or terror associated with math class, tests, quizzes, and homework? Paranoia: Are you concerned that you are the only person in the world who can't do the math problems and that everyone else is smarter than you? Passive behavior: Have you given up on trying to learn and understand math entirely because you feel that you are just not smart enough? Lack of confidence: Do you second guess all of your answers and rely on others to help you through the material? As with most phobias and addictions, the first step to treatment is admitting the problem. Having math phobia in itself does not make you a bad person, but not dealing with it will affect your life negatively. This is especially important if you have a child who is struggling with math. Your own anxiety can increase theirs. Everyone has different abilities and learns at a different pace. Make sure that you are placed in the proper level of mathematics before you begin. Being placed in a course that is more advanced than you are can be extremely frustrating as you struggle to keep up with the material.   Talk to your advisors and discuss what level of math they think is appropriate for your skill level. Take a math placement test to help you gauge your level of knowledge. At the high school level or below, this may not be an option, but at the college level you can choose your professor and math section. There are many online sites where previous students have rated a professor that will allow you to get an idea of their teaching style.   Ask other students who have been in that professor's class about how they liked it. Schedule a meeting with the professor and ask them specifically...

TL;DR in English: Recognize the symptoms of math phobia. Acknowledge your math anxiety. Sign-up for the proper level of math course. Choose a professor who fits your learning style. Ask questions when you don't understand. Work the easiest problems first. Give yourself plenty of time to study for a test. Make a test plan to lower your anxiety. Ask for extended time. Revise your study habits.

Many people experience trauma and recover on their own. Others may develop a serious condition known as post-traumatic stress disorder. Look for signs of PTSD and get professional help if needed. PTSD involves experiencing recurring stress responses that are similar to what you experienced during the actual event long after that event has passed. This might include overwhelming fear or helplessness, sadness, trouble sleeping, and/or a pounding heartbeat. One effective way of coping with trauma is by talking to a therapist, so ask your primary care physician for a referral. Look for a therapist who has experience working with trauma survivors. Your therapist should have treated others with anxiety or PTSD. It may also help to find a professional who conducts cognitive behavioral therapy or dialectical behavior therapy, two proven treatments that benefit trauma survivors. Professional treatment of traumatic stress typically involves cognitive restructuring exercises that help you identify and change negative thought patterns. For instance, you might think “I am weak.” Your therapist will work with you to reframe that thought into something like, “It's normal to feel paralyzed when you face danger. I did the best I could.” Another method for dealing with traumatic stress is by slowly allowing yourself to re-experience the trauma. With the guidance of your therapist, return to the scene of the event and recreate the sensations you felt when it happened.  Don't consider doing this on your own without guidance and support. You might do this over and over again until the memory of the event evokes less of an emotional or physical reaction. PTSD is an anxiety disorder, so you might feel overly alert and even experience panic attacks. Medications may help relieve symptoms of anxiety so that you can function more fully in your day-to-day life. Talk to your doctor to see if they are a good choice for you. Both antidepressants and anti-anxiety medication have proven helpful in reducing the symptoms of PTSD.

Before even beginning a job search, examine the strength of your resume. The formatting should be clean and professional. It must be well organized.  If you are a recent graduate from an accounting degree program but have no relevant work experience, place your education credentials near the top of your resume. Highlight school-related activities such as accounting societies or clubs. Your resume should be no more than one page. Use your cover-letter and interviews to elaborate on details, not your resume. If you are a current student or a recent alumnus of a university, you should take full advantage of the career-building resources hosted there. Chief among these resources is the career fair. You should be going to these by your junior year.  The career fair is a great opportunity to learn more about the field and to make connections in the professional world. Schools with prominent accounting programs or schools in major cities will often have a separate career fair just for accounting jobs. Before attending the career fair, research the attending companies as thoroughly as possible. Knowing basic facts such as market capitalization, core strengths, and prominent clients will help you in your discussions with recruiters. If you can find out through their website which positions are available, you can explain why you'd be a good fit for their specific opening. Its a good idea to follow up via a quick email with anyone you talk to at a career fair, thanking them for their insights and time. This will help them to remember you if you end up applying for jobs with their companies. There are many professional organizations within this field, including the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA), the Professional Accounting Society of America (PASA), and the American Accounting Association (AAA). You can often join an organization like this through a university's accounting department. These organizations host networking events that will allow you to meet and impress potential employers.

While you may perceive your anger as coming out of nowhere, there are some warning signs of rising anger. Your body communicates anger to you before your emotional reaction. Keep an eye out for some of the following signs:  Clenched hands or jaw, muscle tension (like shoulders) Feeling flushed Faster breathing Headache Pacing, increased need for movement Pounding heart Anger is a reflection of how you feel, not how someone is “making” you feel. Your anger belongs to you and not to your partner. Avoid blaming your partner and accept that your anger is your responsibility to deal with appropriately. If your anger is your own, then it is also within your control. Recognize whether outside factors contribute to or worsen your anger. This can include not getting enough rest, being hungry, feeling stressed out at work or school, or other external factors. If you notice your anger in the relationship  increases when you have outside stressors (like work deadlines or when the kids are sick), realize that you may be mismanaging your anger and taking it out on your partner or the relationship. Look at your regular routine and distinguish events or situations that tend to trigger anger. These situations may include commuting, dealing with rowdy children, or routinely not getting enough sleep each night.  Address these factors and find healthy outlets for your anger that don’t involve your partner. Often, anger is a secondary emotion to other deeper emotions, such as sadness, guilt, shame, fear, hurt, or rejection. Think about whether anger is your primary emotion, or if it is the way you are expressing a different emotion. Anger may be expressed if the other emotions make you feel vulnerable or weak, as anger can act as a defense that makes you feel more powerful.  Ask yourself whether you are truly angry, or if you are responding to feeling vulnerable, weak, sad, or shameful. Are you being triggered and responding to the trigger through anger? If anger is the only feeling you experience regularly, it may be shielding...

TL;DR in English: Be aware of your anger warning signs. Own your anger. Handle outside factors. Address primary emotions. Identify your maladaptive thoughts. Overcome negative thought patterns.

Set 1 or 2 baking sheets aside while you mix together the cookie dough. Place 8 tablespoons (110 g) of salted butter into a microwave-safe mixing bowl. Microwave the butter until it just melts, but doesn't get hot. This should take 40 seconds. Measure and add 1/2 cup (100 g) of sugar and 1/4 cup (50 g) of packed light brown sugar to the bowl of melted butter. You can use dark brown sugar, but the cookies will have a stronger molasses flavor. Use a stand or hand mixer to beat the melted butter with the sugars on medium speed. Keep beating the mixture until it's creamy. This should take 1 minute. Turn the mixer down to low speed and add 1 egg and 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of vanilla. Beat the mixture until the egg is incorporated. This should take 10 to 15 seconds. Turn off the mixer and add 1 1/2 cups (187 g) of flour, 1/2 teaspoon (2 g) of baking soda, and 1/4 teaspoon (1.5 g) of salt. Turn the mixer on to low and beat the dough until the dry ingredients are just combined. Remove the beaters and use your hands to bring the little bits of dough together. Avoid over mixing your dough or the cookies may become tough instead of soft. Pour 3/4 cup (130 g) of chocolate chips or chunks into the dough and use your hands or a rubber spatula to mix them. The chips should be evenly spread throughout the dough. Divide the dough into 12 even pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and set them on a baking sheet. Arrange the balls so they're at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) apart. Put the baking sheets in the preheated oven and bake the cookies until they puff up and turn slightly golden. The cookies will look dry around the edges and just set in the centers. Avoid baking the cookies until they darken since they'll finish cooking as they cool. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and set them on a wire rack. Let the cookies cool completely on the sheets before you move them. The cookies should deflate a little. Store the soft cookies in an airtight container at room temperature. Eat the cookies within 5 to 7 days.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven to 350 °F (177 °C) and get out a baking sheet. Microwave the butter. Add the sugars to the melted butter. Beat the butter and sugars for 1 minute. Beat in the vanilla and egg. Mix the dry ingredients into a dough. Stir in the chocolate chips. Roll the dough into balls and place them on a baking sheet. Bake the soft cookies for 9 to 11 minutes. Cool the cookies on the sheets for 30 minutes.

A routine checkup and cleaning from your dentist is a key part of good oral hygiene. Professionally cleaning your teeth and gums, removing tartar and plaque buildup, and treating periodontal or gum disease will help cut down the risk of tonsil stones. Further, you can check in with your dentist if stones are a recurring problem and at-home options haven’t worked. Depending on your oral health, you may need to visit your dentist more frequently than every 12 months. They may recommend coming twice a year or more. If you have difficulty managing allergies on your own or frequently get sick, work with your healthcare provider. Your physician may prescribe medications that can help you better manage problems with mucus, nasal allergies, and frequent infections. You can also get an allergy test in order to determine what specific allergens to avoid. Some tonsils are more prone to developing stones due to their shape and position. If stones and tonsillitis are recurring problems that interfere with daily life, you might have to consider tonsillectomy, or the surgical removal of your tonsils. Your physician or dentist can perform an examination and determine whether tonsillectomy will help prevent the development of tonsil stones based on the status of your oral health. It is believed that tonsils are part of the immune system since they are made up of special cells that prevent and fight infections. It is believed by some that removing them may impair your immune system, though research does not support this.

TL;DR in English: Visit your dentist at least once per year. Visit an allergist or your doctor about persistent nasal problems. Consult with your healthcare provider about undergoing tonsillectomy.

Choose plain or fancy, as required. Cut it to the length required if it's not already done. Mark the position with a pencil. Use a tape measure to mark the position of the other bracket at the opposite side. Always check for electrical wiring or plumbing before drilling. It's also wise to place a drop sheet on the floor to make it easier to collect the drill dust.  Use a masonry drill bit.  Drill to the depth that the screw requires to penetrate the wall sufficiently. Insert a wall plug. Attach the screw (or screws) by screwing them in as far as they will go. Hold the board in place with one hand. Then, using a spirit level, hold the board across to the other mark you made earlier to check that the board will be sitting evenly. If the mark appears accurate, it's ready, if not, make adjustments as required. Follow the directions given for the first bracket. Lay the board across the brackets and screw it to them from the underside. Be sure to use screws that will not penetrate through to the other side of the board; they must remain wholly inside the shelf board. Gently press on the shelf to check that it is firmly attached to the wall. Make sure that your shelf can bear the weight of heavier objects and don't put something valuable on your home-made shelf until you know that it's secure.

If home remedies aren’t working, getting acupuncture may help the muscle stress and jaw clenching that cause clicking. Look for a licensed acupuncturist in your area and let them know that you are specifically looking for help with clicking, tightness, and/or pain in your jaw. Acupuncture is an alternative medicine practice wherein very thin, hair-like needles are inserted into specific points on the body to help relieve pain, stress, or tension. It is usually recommended in conjunction with more traditional physical therapy practices. Physical therapy can be particularly helpful for those who experience jaw clicking. Set up an appointment with a therapist who specializes in jaw or facial work. They will walk you through a series of stretches, exercises, and massages to help minimize the popping.  Try searching online for a specialist near you. You can also ask your dentist to recommend you to a therapist in your area. You can also call your insurance provider to see if they can recommend a practitioner in your area that is covered by your medical or wellness plan.

Turn your skinny jeans inside out and hand wash it in a bath of cold water with a small amount of liquid detergent, like Woolite Black. If you find that stretching from wear is happening, wash them to promote shrinking in the fabric.  Always review and follow the washing instructions on the jean tags, since some jeans require very specific care to prevent stretching, shrinking, and fading. The fibers can be weakened when excessive heat and harsh detergents are used in washing. This causes stretching, shrinking, fading and makes them more prone to rips and tears. Consider using a laundry conditioner to clean your jeans, like The Laundress Denim Wash. Laundry conditioners get your jeans clean while preventing stretching, fading, and fuzz. Get the most out of washing your jeans by allowing your jeans to air dry. Hang them up to air them out and help them maintain their shape and quality for much longer.  Most people will instinctively want to put their jeans in the dryer, which is useful with helping skinny jeans shrink, but not recommended for long or excessive use because of the wear and tear the machine can create. Air dry your jeans whenever possible. To accelerate drying even further, hang your jeans on a clothesline and allow the fresh air to help them dry and revitalize its scent. Be careful that they are not directly exposed to sunlight. If ever you’re feeling your skinny jeans are a little looser than you’d like, put them in the dryer. After hand washing them gently, toss them into your dryer at the highest setting to make the fibers of the denim constrict for a tighter fight when you wear them again.  Be aware that a commercial dryer can cause wear and tear in denim with excessive use so use a dryer at your discretion. If using a commercial dryer is your preference for drying your jeans, toss them in at the lowest setting to cut down some of the potential harm regular use may cause to the look and feel of your skinny jeans.

TL;DR in English: Hand wash your jeans to clean them. Let them air dry. Use the dryer your skinny jeans their stretch back.

Start to feel connected by giving others the benefit of the doubt. When people invite you to things, don't just assume it's because they want to be nice. They might really want your friendship. They might really want to see what you have to offer the world! Assume the best in them and let them pleasantly surprise you. If you don't try, after all, you'll never even have the chance to find out if something could have been wonderful and fun! Humans naturally gain the greatest sense of satisfaction from helping each other. Not just the surface help of carrying someone's groceries. Instead, give someone deep, meaningful help that becomes one of the most positive forces of good in their lives. This will leave you feeling deeply connected to the greater human experience and get you ready to embrace life and all that you have in yours to be grateful for.  Try working with Big Brothers Big Sisters, which provides mentorship to at risk youth, or building homes with Habitat for Humanity, which works to build permanent residences for people who drew the short straw in life. Volunteering is also a great chance to make new friends and meet people who share similar values and interests to you. If you're not great with meeting people in real life or if your schedule or lifestyle is just not good for being with people, then try meeting people and joining communities online. There are lots of different ways to do this! WikiHow, for example, has a great community and we're always happy for another friendly face and helping hand. Another option would be, for example, playing an MMO. This is a special type of video game that lets you take on a new life and make friends in a completely different world. Guild Wars is known for having one of the friendliest communities.

TL;DR in English: Give people the benefit of the doubt. Volunteer. Find communities online.

If you don't want to use bleach creme, or you want to just try out what lighter brows would be like, try using 3% hydrogen peroxide solution. Dip a cotton swab into the liquid solution, and apply it to the areas of your eyebrow you'd like to lighten.  Hydrogen peroxide is an easily obtained, inexpensive product that's available in drug stores, pharmacies, or with first aid products. Leave it on for a few minutes the first time you apply it, then wipe it off. If you want, reapply every day, which will result in a gradual lightening of your eyebrows. If your brows are very dark, hydrogen peroxide will turn them a reddish-brown color instead of blonde. If you prefer using natural products over chemicals, try combining chamomile tea with lemon juice. To make the tea, pour a cup of boiling water over a chamomile tea bag and allow to steep for 1 hour. Mix in an equal portion of lemon juice, and stir well.  Apply with a cotton swab to your eyebrows. Repeat every day to gradually lighten your eyebrows. A brow pencil a few shades lighter than your current eyebrow shade will make your eyebrows appear lighter. If your eyebrows are dark brown, however, this may not work.  You can also use lighter colored eyeshadows around your eyebrows to maintain a lighter look. Brow gel that's several shades lighter than your current shade can also create the effect of a lighter eyebrow.

Don’t overburden yourself. Write out a weekly schedule. Keep track of important dates and deadlines. Prioritize your obligations. Take breaks and pace yourself. Meditate

Pour a small amount of talcum powder on the stained spot. Wait for an hour or two for the powder to soak up the oil. Use a vacuum or brush to remove the powder. Whenever you sweat, you should immediate wipe the area with a damp white cloth. This will keep the salt from your perspiration from seeping into your hat.  On dark straw hats, you should use ammonia to get rid of these stains. Mix half a teaspoon of ammonia with half a teaspoon of water in a bowl. Then, dip a small brush into the water mixture and use it to go over the stained area. With a light straw hat, you can use a hydrogen peroxide and water mixture. Combine a half teaspoon of each in a bowl. Just take a brush, dip it in the mixture, and lightly scrub the sweat-stained area. Wait for the area to dry before wearing the hat again. Using an art gum eraser, lightly rub scuffed spots. The gum should make the scuffs disappear.

TL;DR in English: Remove oil stains. Remove sweat stains. Remove scuffs.

Under too much heat and stress, the PVC may crack or warp without a medium inside to help it hold its shape. The best candidate — sand. Get enough sand to fill up the pipe a few inches past the planned bend.  You may need to use some tape to block one end of the pipe and keep the sand in.     Try not to bend the pipe any closer than 3–5" away from a joint. You don't need to wait for it to pre-heat completely, but turn it on now to get some heat built up. Block off one end of the pipe and measure out how much sand you'll need to fill the pipe with sand. You don't have to fill the entire pipe, just fill it until the sand is a few inches past where you plan to bend the PVC. Let the sand heat up with the oven. After the oven has hit 425 °F (281.3 °C), leave the sand in an extra five to six minutes to get up to the right temperature.     If you have a lot of sand, more than two to three cups, stir it halfway through so that the sand heats up evenly. Make sure you wear protective gloves or oven mitts. Let the sand heat the pipe up for a few minutes, until the PVC feels pliable. Once the pipe is soft, it should easily bend by hand. For a rounder, more even bend, use an old can or similar round, heatproof object and bend the pipe around that. Leave the pipe undisturbed and let it cool back to room temperature. Do not try and bend the pipe again once you've removed the sand. You can also save the sand to use later, reheating it as many times as you want to bend new pipes.

TL;DR in English: Use hot sand to fill the pipe and bend it without collapsing. Heat your oven to 425 °F (281.3 °C). Fill the pipe with sand so that it is a few inches past the bend. Pour the sand into a oven-safe dish and put it in the oven. Carefully pour the hot sand back into the PVC pipe. Slowly bend the pipe into your desired shape. Empty the sand out and let the pipe cool.

If your phone autocorrects your text message into something embarrassing or insulting, you need to send a new message as soon as possible to inform the recipient of the mistake. If you wait too long, the recipient might think you meant to type the text as it is. Send a new message apologizing for the mistake. People today know that most phones use autocorrect software, so when you accidentally send a message that doesn’t say what you meant to say, most people will understand the mistake. Make a joke of the faux pas by texting something about the mistake right after. Text “LOL. My phone apparently thinks differently than I do.” Most phones will give you the option to turn off the autocorrect software. If you turn off autocorrect, it might take you longer to type out a text message, and you still might misspell words, but you will know you’re sending a message you meant to type. Some phones will underline misspelled words for you so you can fix them on your own. Check your phone’s user’s manual to find out how you can turn off your autocorrect software.

TL;DR in English: Respond to the situation quickly. Laugh it off. Consider turning off autocorrect.

Place the lid on the pot, then turn it clockwise until it locks securely. Double check that the small round pressure release valve on the lid of the cooker is completely closed before you proceed.  Make sure your Instant Pot is plugged into the nearest wall outlet. You won't get very far with dinner if it's not! The pressure release valve is responsible for trapping or venting heat, depending on its position. If it’s open, your pasta won’t be able to cook properly. Make sure the Instant Pot’s pressure setting is programmed to “High.” This will help ensure that your pasta comes out with just the right texture. The Instant Pot uses a combination of heat and pressure to cook food items in far less time than it takes to prepare them using conventional cookware. Manually select your preferred cook time by pressing the "+" button repeatedly until you see the desired number of minutes on the display. It will take a couple minutes for the Instant Pot to heat up. Once it reaches the necessary pressure, a timer will appear on and begin counting down. If you’re preparing a simple pasta-and-sauce dish, 4-5 minutes ought to be plenty of time to heat everything evenly. For heavier dishes with lots of ingredients like meats and veggies, you may need closer to 8 minutes. Finish putting the other components of your meal together, or take this opportunity to kick your feet up for a well-deserved break. You won’t have to wait long—by the time you’re done setting the table, dinner will be ready!  Avoid tampering with either the lid or pressure valve while the Instant Pot is working its magic. The Instant Pot will shut itself off automatically when it’s done cooking. You’ll know when this happens because it will beep. Locate the circular valve stem on the top of the lid and use the edge of your finger to slowly turn it counterclockwise until it stops moving. This will allow the steam that has built up inside the pot to escape. Be sure to stay a safe distance away from the valve while it’s open. If you’re apprehensive about...

TL;DR in English: Cover and seal the Instant Pot. Select the "Pressure Cook" mode. Set the timer for 4-8 minutes. Let the pasta to cook for the specified time. Release the pressure valve.

When you’re juggling classes, homework, extracurricular activities, and your social life, it’s easy to end up with too much on your plate. If you have family or work obligations, college life can feel even more overwhelming.  Don’t take on unnecessary obligations, e.g. extra courses beyond the required courseload per quarter or semester. If you feel overwhelmed by your school workload, talk to your academic advisor about putting together a more manageable schedule. Your workload will feel less overwhelming if you approach it in an organized way. Write out a schedule that clearly shows where you need to be and what you need to be doing at any given time during each day of the week. Include all of your classes, but also block out time for other important things like studying, eating, exercising, sleeping, and having fun. Write them down on a calendar or in a planner, or use a program like Google Calendar to help you stay on top of the things you need to do. That way, you will be able to prepare in advance for important assignments and events. Take a little time every week to assess which assignments are most important, and which ones will take the most time to complete. Come up with a plan for tackling the high priority tasks first, and then dealing with smaller and easier tasks. Forcing yourself to keep working when you’re too tired or stressed to concentrate is counter-productive. If you feel yourself becoming tired or distracted while you’re working, take a few minutes to walk around and stretch your legs, eat a healthy snack, or even put your head down for a quick nap. . Meditation can help you feel more relaxed and can take your focus off of things that are worrying you by helping you stay in the moment.  Find a peaceful place on campus where you can meditate without distraction. Sit in a comfortable position and close your eyes. Try focusing on just your breathing. If you feel your mind start to wander, gently redirect your attention to your breathing. After a while, allow yourself to think about how you...

Purchase a tube bender. Follow the instructions. Select the appropriate-size die for the tubing you need to bend. Place the tubing into the bender. Measure the correct angle. Bend the tube to your desired angle. Practice with scrap tubing.

Accept that you can only change yourself, not your partner. This is perhaps the hardest but most important tenet of a solid relationship. You should never enter a relationship with the plan to "fix" your partner. You need to accept the fact that your partner may never change, and be okay with that. To do otherwise is a guaranteed way to frustrate yourself and alienate your partner.  You may support your partner to make positive changes in their life. But you should never try or need to fundamentally change them. If you cannot accept your partner for who they are, you either need to set boundaries to avoid getting hurt or leave the relationship entirely. Understand that men and women are different. Or for that matter understand that different men and different women are different. Do not unfairly hold your partner up to the standards of an old relationship or of an ideal one. We all know that violence is not an acceptable way to control partner. But know that using guilt or shame is just as damaging. Guilting or shaming to control your partner is emotional abuse. Do not attempt to control your partner. This is an extension of "Do not try to change your partner" step. If you cannot handle compromise then leave the relationship, do not try to control or change your partner to make it work. You do not have to share your partner's every hobby. But you should listen to your partner when they talk about their interests, and give them guilt-free time and space to pursue their interests. While not every emotion is desirable (for example anger, resentment, and frustration), they are all normal. If your partner is angry at something, do not criticize them for being angry -- that cannot be helped. What people are responsible for is how they express their emotions. Anger can be destructive or constructive. You may rightly criticize how emotions are expressed and ask that they be shared in a constructive fashion, but do not critique the emotion itself. Critiquing emotions can lead to your partner feeling guilty, defensive...

TL;DR in English: Do not try to change your partner. Do not control your partner. Support their interests. Don't minimize your partner's emotions.

The average US wedding costs $25,000, but almost $11,000 of that is spent on the venue and food. You need to consider where you are having your wedding before anything else or you may end up with very little of your budget to spend on, entertainment, decorations, invites, etc.  Urban areas are almost always more expensive because they are much busier and serve a larger variety of couples. Even moving out to a venue in the suburbs can save money.  Have the wedding during the fall or winter. Popular wedding venues are not as busy during these times and they often have lower prices as a result. Saturday is the most expensive day to get married. The sooner you start booking places for the wedding the better your chances are you'll find the perfect spot. Many popular wedding destinations, like churches and parks, book up between 9-12 months in advance, so you need to be quick if you are heart-set on a spot. That said, small weddings thrive at unique, off-beat, and smaller locations, so don't limit yourself to the "classic" wedding spots. Call around town and ask about:  You town park. The beach. A friends' backyard. A local farm, bed and breakfast, or ranch. Museums, the historical society, or state parks. Some venues require you to use their in-house catering company for your food. Others may have a limit on the number of guests allowed or have a minimum number of guests. You need to be in touch with the venue in advance before you put any money down to avoid unpleasant surprises later. The American Marriage Ministries will ordain almost anyone, making them legally able to marry a couple in the United States. What's more, registering is free and can be done almost instantly online. Skip the big service or officiants and have someone close to you run your service for an intimate and cheaper wedding service. Be sure to ask someone 3-4 months in advance, giving them time to register and prepare for the service. A good photographer can cost you several hundred dollars, but a small wedding can benefit immeasurably...

TL;DR in English: Know that venue matters more than any other thing when budgeting a wedding. Reserve your venue well in advance. Talk to the venue in advance about any regulations, fees, or needs. Ask a friend to officiate the wedding for you if you are not at a church. Get friends to fill in for photographers, videographers. Arrange for low-cost DJ instead of a band. Plan the table placement.

One of the simplest fasts you can do is a water fast, where you consume nothing but water as a way to lose weight quickly. Drink one to two quarts of water per day, spaced out during regular meal times. You can supplement it with a slice of lemon.  Your fast should not be very long, preferably under 72 hours. Also make sure you space out some time between fasts, at least 3 weeks, to build up your strength.  You’ll want to avoid doing much of anything while on the water fast, so make sure you are prepared to rest often. If you can, spending your water fast in a supervised retreat or clinic, where you can be closely monitored by professionals, is the safest option.  When done under medical supervision, water fasting can be a safe and effective means of normalizing your blood pressure. Usually it works best as a gateway to further diet and lifestyle changes, especially since you won’t be able to live off the water fast for more than a few days. This is a fasting practice that isn’t about not eating at all, but more about taking longer breaks between meals. There is a lot of flexibility in this kind of fasting, as you will be making the conscious decision to skip meals. This is a popular way to think about eating among  people on the Paleo diet.  A good starting plan is 16/8 method, where you restrict the times during which you eat. Find an eight hour window, say 10:00 am to 6:00 pm, and only eat during that time. That will give you 16 hours during the rest of the day where you will fast. On some fasting plans, you don’t avoid eating on certain days, but simply consume less food. On the 5:2 diet, for example, you could replace a full dinner with something small like a cup of yogurt or piece of fruit two days out of the week. Part of the trick is to keep your calorie intake consistent on the other days, to make sure you are getting the right number of calories.  This kind of fasting is meant to be tied to a healthier diet. Make sure you are consuming nutrient rich foods like fresh fruits and vegetables and...

TL;DR in English: Go on a water fast. Try intermittent fasting. Try a beginner's juicing plan. Try the Master Cleanse.

Before you blanch your spinach, give it a good rinse to remove any dirt, bacteria, or insecticides on the leaves. Place the spinach in a colander to drain, but there's no need to dry it yet.  If you're blanching spinach you harvested yourself, you may want to place the spinach in a bowl of water to clean it thoroughly, since there may still be bugs or traces of dirt from your garden. Commercially-bought spinach has likely been washed already, but it's still a good idea to rinse it again. While you're waiting for your water to boil, get a large bowl, like a punch bowl. Fill the bowl about halfway with ice, then pour in enough cool water to cover the ice completely. Be sure to leave enough room in the bowl to add the spinach. After you've chilled the spinach, transfer it to a colander to drain. It will probably take about 5 minutes for most of the water to drain off of the spinach. If you'd like, you can gently shake or tap the colander a few times to speed up the process. You can also dry the spinach in a salad spinner if you have one. Divide the spinach into the normal portion you would usually use for a meal.  Extra air in your container can cause your spinach to become freezer-burned, so be sure to remove as much air from the bag as possible before you seal it.

TL;DR in English: Rinse the spinach in cool water to remove any dirt, then drain it. Fill a large bowl with ice water while the water is heating. Drain the spinach in a colander. Place the spinach in a resealable plastic bag and squeeze out any air.

Your local hardware store will have a variety of tube benders available at different price points. The major differences may include the amount of hydraulic force the bender can apply to the tube as well as the size and durability of the accompanying die set.  The dies are curved pieces you attach to the bender and into which you place the tubing to form the bend. The different dies will correspond to different diameters of tubing. Additionally, you can find die sets for either round or square tubing. Ensure that you buy a tube bender and not a pipe bender. Tube and pipe are not synonymous, and the scaling is even different, so the dies in a pipe bending set will not properly fit tube. This usually leads to flattening, buckling, or kinks in tube bent with a pipe bender. As always, specific machinery may have specific steps due to design or other requirements. Thoroughly consult the directions that come with your equipment. For instance, if you need to bend 1” tubing, then you would select the 1” die. Using the correct die is very important. If the tubing doesn’t fit snugly into the die, then you can end up with a flattened or kinked finished product. Once you attach the die, you will feed the tube into the bender so that the spot where you want to bend is in the center of the die. You will then tighten down the bender, which will have a pneumatic jack, enough to keep the tubing in place. You cannot set the bender to a specific degree angle for you and let it do the rest, so this means measuring the exact angle to which you need your tube bent. The easiest solution is to use a digital angle gauge, which you can attach to the level tube before you begin bending. As you incrementally bend the tube, the angle gauge will track the measurement of the angle. As you increase the force in the bender, the tube will bend to sharper angles. Once your angle gauge has measured the angle you want, you can release the pressure on the tube and remove it from the machine. Since using too much force can still lead to kinks in a...

Invest in laser hair removal. Go to a salon. Consider electrolysis.

If you need to exfoliate your scalp, try this scrub made with brown sugar, oatmeal, and condition. Make sure you wash your hair first. Then, take some of the scrub and massage it into your scalp in a circular motion. Leave it for a few minutes, and then rinse out. This is good for dry hair.  To make the scrub, combine two tablespoons of brown sugar, two tablespoons of oatmeal, and two tablespoons of conditioner. This scrub may be good for sensitive scalps. Cinnamon helps get rid of bacteria on the scalp. Baking soda helps get rid of residue, and olive oil increases moisture of your scalp and hair. Cover your scalp with the mask, and cover your hair with a shower cap. Leave the mask for 10 to 15 minutes. Shampoo afterwards.  To make the mask, combine one teaspoon of baking soda, two tablespoons of olive oil, and ½ teaspoon of cinnamon powder. This mask is good for dry hair. Baking soda helps clean your scalp, while tea tree oil may help eliminate the scalp bacteria that cause dandruff. Mix one tablespoon of baking soda, and a few drops of tea tree oil into your shampoo. As you work the shampoo mixture into your hair, make sure that you massage it into your scalp. This is best for dry, flaky scalps.  Rinse with warm water to remove the mixture. Don’t use this if you have color-treated hair. You may not want to use it with sensitive scalps because the tea tree oil can irritate. Salt is a good exfoliating agent that when combined with olive oil help to remove flakes, dandruff, and other debris on your scalp. Adding lemon juice helps remove any product build up. Mix the three ingredients together and massage into your scalp. Do this for a couple of minutes before rinsing. Shampoo afterwards.  To make the scrub, use two tablespoons of sea salt, one tablespoon of lemon juice, and two tablespoons of olive oil. Due to the salt and lemon juice, you may not want to use this if you have a sensitive scalp.

TL;DR in English: Make a brown sugar scrub. Use a cinnamon mask. Try a baking soda scrub. Prepare a salt scrub.

You need to research where you are going, the flight times and prices for airlines, and which documents you need to take with you. Plan out your itinerary carefully. Some cities, like London or Paris, really need a week to see what they have to offer. Travel times also need to be taken into consideration. Traveling by train can take longer than traveling by car. Fodor's, Rick Steves, and the Michelin guides are all excellent places to start. Make sure you have the most up-to-date guide book for the area of the world you intend to visit. Some are updated every year. Others are updated every other year, or every few years. A good guidebook is a $15-20 investment that can save a lot of headache. Don't be afraid to rip it up and staple together only the pieces you need. A well-kept guidebook might make a nice souvenir, but it may not be worth the extra weight of carrying around information that you don't need. Before going on the trip, research what is and is not acceptable in your destination. When you arrive, observe how others act in person. Remember: some things are okay for locals to do, but not for tourists to do. This is just polite. Even if you struggle with it, the locals will appreciate that you've at least tried their language instead of rudely asking "Do you speak English?" (Or whatever your native tongue happens to be.) If you use the native language to ask for something, expect the reply to be in that language and at normal conversational speed – which is going to be faster than the audio lessons you learned. This is not to say that you shouldn't learn some basic greetings and questions. You should, however, be ready for the responses. Memorize it and note each of the places you will be visiting. Keep your map safe and dry. If you have access to a laptop or a smartphone (with data), you may not expressly need a physical map – but it is still usually smart to carry one as a backup. Examples include the "dropped ring" scam, the "fake petition," and friendship bracelets tied on your wrist by aggressive...

TL;DR in English: Do your research. Get a good guidebook. Understand the basic customs of the area. Learn some basic phrases of the country you are going to. Get a reliable map of the area you are going to. Be aware of common scams in your destination.

Different colors are better suited for particular engagements, jobs, etc.  If you have a high-level business position, you will want to wear a different color than if you are participating in a casual, social gathering.  For a job interview, the traditional choices are conservative colors.  White is the preferred color among business types.  Off white, light gray, or light blue are also safe colors to choose from.  First impressions at job interviews are key, so you will want to look professional without making a "splash." If you are looking to project a more lively image at a party or bar, choose bright or unconventional colors.  Bright greens and oranges are relatively popular, as is pink.  While you might not want to turn off the people you are hanging out with, you do want to stand out among the crowd. Most people work in business casual situations.  These often require people to "dress up" while not being so formal.  Plaid options are generally best here; shirts mixing together two or three colors which blend well together (such as blue, green and gray). Solid colors are considered wardrobe staples because they are easiest to match, but you might consider choosing subtle stripes or a plaid pattern. Different patterns are more appropriate for particular circumstances.  Solid shirts are versatile in that you can wear virtually any tie with them (solid or patterned).  If you have a high-level business position, or are going out on a date, solid colors like white, black, gray, or light blue are most appropriate. Patterned shirts are a bit more difficult to match with ties.  These shirts are more appropriate for lower level office jobs, partying, or walking around outside. While thick, bold colored plaid shirts are better for casual settings, there are some exceptions to the rule.  Shirts with subtle stripes, or pinstripes, can be worn in higher-level circumstances like office work, or going to a funeral/wedding. If you are planning on wearing a patterned tie, wear a solid color shirt.  When ties and shirts...

The high traffic areas of your home with travertine floors, such as a doorway or a hallway, are more susceptible to damage. In order to keep your floors pristine, it is necessary to provide additional protection to high traffic areas. Protect these areas from abrasive dirt and damaging grime with seasonal doormats, sleek runners, and timeless area rugs. Travertine floors are easily damaged and must be cleaned with care. To maintain a well-kept floor, vacuum, dust, and sweep your travertine regularly.  Never drag an upright or full sized canister vacuum across your floor to suck up debris. Instead, suck up abrasive debris that might scrape your floors, such as dirt and gravel, with a handheld vacuum. Remove dirt and debris from your floors with a dry dust mop. When washing your floors, only use a soapless, neutral PH 7 mild abrasive cleaner and water. Always follow the product’s instructions. Use broad sweeping motions that overlap to clean your floor. Dry and polish with a clean microfiber cloth. To deep clean your floors, you may use an automatic scrubber with disk brush attachment. As a porous stone, travertine stains easily. After identifying what caused the stain, use specific products to remove the blemish.  Oil-based stains darken the stone and must be removed with chemicals. Blot the stain with a clean cloth to remove any excess residue. To remove the stain, use a soft liquid household cleaner, such as ammonia, acetone, or detergent. Apply the product to the stone on a damp cloth. Place the cloth over the stain to draw out the oil-based product.  Organic stains, such as those caused by coffee, juice, urine, and food, turn the travertine pink or brown. Remove these stains with a mixture of 12% hydrogen peroxide—food grade hydrogen peroxide—and a few drops of ammonia. Apply the product to the stone on a damp cloth. Place the cloth over the stain to draw out the organic stain.  The method for removing ink stains varies based on the color of the stone. If the stain is on a light colored stone, use bleach...

TL;DR in English: Protect your floors. Dry clean your floors. Wash your floors. Remove stains from your travertine floors. Use water to clean outdoor travertine.

Laser hair removal is a cosmetic surgery that beams concentrated light into the hair follicles. When the light is absorbed, the follicle dies. This method is effective for most areas of the body, especially the face, legs, and arms.  Laser hair removal is a medical procedure. Before getting the procedure, carefully select a doctor or technician who you trust. Do not pluck or wax hairs in the area that will undergo laser hair removal for a month or two before the procedure. Laser hair removal targets hair follicles, and the hair is pulled out by the root in both waxing and plucking. Laser hair removal takes up to 9 months to complete, and the procedure can be expensive. However, laser removal is a permanent solution for getting rid of hair. This can save you money on waxings, shaving cream, or depilatory creams in the long run. Salons offer wax treatments for just about every area of  your body. If you are waxing hard to reach places, or you are sensitive to pain, go to a salon and let a professional do it.  Waxing specialists can shape hair, like the eyebrows and bikini area, and also treat your skin with moisturizers before and after to help reduce redness. Getting a professional wax may be the best option for your bikini area. The skin in that region is extremely sensitive and prone to irritation and infection. Plus, it's difficult to see. Many salons offer bikini area waxes for both women and men. During electrolysis, the hair is destroyed with chemicals or heat. A probe is inserted into the follicle, and then the hair is removed with tweezers.  Electrolysis can be used on most areas of the body. The number of treatments needed will vary from person to person. Most people have one treatment every week or two until the treatment period is complete.

If you're planning a surprise date, make sure you have a plan for the day.

Watch your hamster to see if it's breathing. Try to detect a heartbeat. Ignore body heat as an indicator between hibernation and death. Check the hamster's body for stiffness.

If you used cream-based makeup for the shadows and highlights, then try using a blending sponge instead. Sweep the brush over the edges of your highlights and shadows, blending them into your foundation and into each other. You want your face to look smooth; any lines will give away the fact that you contoured your face using makeup.

TL;DR in English: Blend everything using a fluffy brush.

The longer you wait to eat them, the soggier the crabs will grow. Put them on plates and serve them as soon as possible. To keep from making a mess, you can line the plate with a paper towel before placing the crab on top. A delicious dish deserves a beautiful presentation! Sprinkle the crab with pinch of flaky sea salt to bring out the flavors in the meat. Chop up some fresh parsley leaves and sprinkle those over the top as well. The parsley will enhance the crab's natural briny flavor and add a pleasing pop of color. Cut up a fresh lemon into small wedges, then place them in a bowl for the table or add a few wedges on each plate of crab. A few squeezes of the lemon juice will add a bright citrus note that contrasts nicely with the savory meat. Refrigerate any crab leftovers within 2 hours of cooking and keep them in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days. You can either eat them on their own or use them in other dishes, such as sandwiches, tacos, salad, sushi rolls, and omelets.  You can also freeze the cooked crab in freezer bags or plastic wrap for 2-3 months. The crab won't stay crispy, but the meat will still be usable in other dishes. To make the meat crispy again, try re-breading and frying it.

TL;DR in English: Serve the crabs hot, straight out of the oil. Garnish with flaky salt and fresh parsley. Serve with fresh lemon wedges. Store leftovers to use in other dishes.

If you’re planning a surprise date for your partner, know what they like to do. Taking your partner to do something they love shows that you pay attention and remember details about them. Always start with ideas you know they’ll like to plan great dates.  If you know your partner loves a particular restaurant and you haven’t been there in a while, take them there for a great date. Make sure you’re positive that your partner likes this activity. If you make a mistake, you could get the opposite result and they could think you don’t listen to them. Not all dates have to be a surprise. Planning dates together can be a great way to build intimacy and learn more about what each other likes. Take an hour and talk about what activities you’d like to do the next day. Make a list and choose together.  As a compromise, you could pick the activity and your partner could pick where you eat afterwards, or vice versa. Be open to what your partner suggests, even if you’ve never done it before. Show that you’re open to try what they like. Doing the same thing all the time can get stale. Break your normal routine by trying new activities together. This shows your partner that you’re spontaneous and open to new experiences. Trying something new together builds your connection to each other.  Make a list of things you’ve never done before. This will depend on your situation. It could be fishing, hiking, taking a cooking class, or anything new. Keep this list and pick new options when you need a new date idea. You could try a new style of food for dinner. If you always eat Italian, try looking for a Middle Eastern restaurant nearby for a new experience. Not everyone has time or money for a long vacation. Luckily, day trips are a great way to get the same feeling. Choose a location a few hours away from your home. Leave early, spend the day exploring, then be back in time for bed. It’s a perfect way to spend alone time with your partner without breaking the bank.  Some good day trip ideas are a nearby vineyard or winery, beach,...

TL;DR in English: Choose activities your partner likes to show them you pay attention. Plan out your dates together to learn each other's interests. Suggest a new activity to change up your routine. Take a romantic day trip to enjoy each other’s company.

When you’re having your morning coffee or taking the first walk of the day, make a quick call to any drivers you have scheduled to take you around. Double-check that train map or look up the cost of a taxi to confirm the price. If you get on the wrong bus or blow all of your spending cash on taxis, you may end up annoyed or missing out on something you were really looking forward to.If you are traveling in a major city known for its easy public transit, like Paris or Chicago, go ahead and take it. It’s probably not a great idea to mess around with confusing transit systems, though. For example, it can be pretty hard to navigate buses in India and Tokyo’s trains can get pretty complicated. Regardless of where you are or what you’re doing, focus on being present. Breathe in the air, enjoy looking around, and don’t worry about anything going on at home or work. Be open to trying new foods, drinks, and meeting new people. The more distracted you are, the less likely it is that you’ll remember this vacation as the best of your life.Unless you have a tour or something, don’t worry about the clock. Paying way too much attention to the time will keep your brain focused on the schedule, not the experience.

TL;DR in English: Confirm your transportation for each day to keep things running smoothly. Live in the moment and embrace new things to have the most fun.

If hibernation is a possibility, watch your hamster very closely for several minutes. Look for signs of breathing. Be aware that the whole of the hamster's body systems slow down, so the breathing rate can become as slow as one breath every two minutes. Watch the hamster for more than two minutes because it's possible to blink and miss that one breath. If you watch for just two minutes, and you could wrongly assume the hamster is dead. If you don't see the hamster breathing then feel for a heartbeat. The heart rate of a hamster can slow down significantly. It can be just four beats a minute, or one beat every 15 seconds. It can be difficult to find a hamster's heart beat because they are so tiny. To do this use your forefinger and thumb of one hand and place them on either side of the hamster chest just behind its elbows. Apply gentle pressure, sufficient that you could hold the hamster this way to stop it running away but without hurting it. Wait patiently and feel for a heartbeat against your finger tips. Don't worry it the hamster feels cold. This doesn't automatically mean it's dead. The hibernation process is triggered by chilling and its body temperature will drop to match the environment. One difference that indicates death is rigor mortis. If the hamster feels stiff and hard like board, then he may have rigor mortis, which is a sign of death.

TL;DR in English:


Decide on a location that’s sunny, sheltered, and has good drainage. Select a support. Install your support. Dig a hole that’s 2 feet (0.61 m) deep. Position the graft union below the soil line in cold climates. Place the graft union above the soil line in warm climates. Add mulch to the surface. Water the root zone heavily twice a week. Wrap your support in burlap during the winter.

Breeding fish is a project that should be taken on by people who are experienced with saltwater aquarium set up and maintenance. While breeding these fish is not difficult, it does require a bit of knowledge about fish feeding and life cycles, not to mention having the right supplies to assure proper tank filtration and ecosystem development. If you want to begin setting up your own aquarium, you may want to consult How to Start a Saltwater Aquarium or How to Set up a Marine Reef Aquarium before diving into breeding fish. Clownfish are external breeders, meaning that the female fish lays eggs and then the male fish fertilizes them after they have been laid. To make this happen you will need to get a pair of clownfish that are already bonded, in other words mated to each other. Many aquarium stores will sell mated pairs specifically for clownfish breeding. If your  store does not have any in stock, they can probably special order a pair just for you. Don't be afraid to ask! The other way you can get a mated pair is to develop two young clownfish into a bonded pair yourself. Begin by buying two clownfish when they are still young. One of the amazing things about clownfish is that they are all born neither male or female, so you don't have to worry about getting one male and one female.  Any pair will do.  Developing into a male or female fish only occurs as the fish get older. The sex of your fish will actually be determined by the dominance of the fish when fighting each other. The dominant fish will change sex into a female and the less dominant will become male. If you are keeping a lot of clownfish in the same tank, only one bonded pair will develop. The most dominant of all will become female and the second most dominant will become male. The rest will remain sexless.  If you want to keep the fighting to a minimum and make the fish change sex as quickly as possible, it is a good idea to get one clownfish that is larger than the other, that way it is clear from the get go which one is dominant. Clownfish...

TL;DR in English: Make sure you are very familiar with the basics of keeping a saltwater aquarium. Get a mated pair from an aquarium store. Develop a mated pair. Keep the water in your tank clean. Place plants and rocks in your aquarium. Keep your aquarium lighting on a timer. Recognize the changes in clownfish behavior that signal spawning. Keep a look out for the clownfish eggs. Track changes in the clownfish eggs. Set up a separate hatchling tank once the eggs are laid.

. Your body has a natural circadian rhythm that works best when you're running on a schedule. If you fall asleep and wake up at roughly the same time each day, you'll feel tired at bedtime and energized in the morning. Try to stick to the same bedtime and wake time, even on weekends. While it can be hard to adopt at first, after a few weeks of a new schedule you'll start to fall asleep more easily. People who work out on a regular basis tend to have less trouble sleeping. Getting on an exercise schedule can help regulate your sleep.  Try to engage in some form of exercise each day. While you don't need to hit the gym to do vigorous aerobics each day, going for a short walk or run every day can have great benefits for your sleep schedule as well as your overall health.  Timing is important when it comes to exercising for sleep. Exercising too late in the day may cause a rush of adrenaline, which may make it harder to sleep at night. Try not to exercise in the four to five hours before bed. Your diet can have a tremendous impact on your sleep. Eating heavy meals late at night can cause indigestion, keeping you up with stomach pangs. Stick to lighter dinner options with less processed carbs and sugars. Eating healthier overall can help regulate your body's hormones and help you sleep sounder. If your difficulty sleeping is caused by anxiety or stress, look into ways to better manage stress long-term. Ask your doctor for a referral to a therapist. A qualified therapist can help you figure out how to better manage stress. This can result in better quality sleep long-term.

TL;DR in English: Get on a sleep schedule Exercise. Eat better. Manage your worries long-term.

Goldfish are omnivores, which means that they eat meats and plants. There are many types of food that you can feed your goldfish, and it can be overwhelming to go into the pet store and see all of the available options. Before purchasing any food, take some time to learn what the different options are.  Keep in mind that each type of food has its advantages and disadvantages. Your goldfish’s diet should consist of many different types of food. Purchasing different types of food will help you keep his diet interesting and ensure that your goldfish receives all of the nutrients that he needs to stay healthy. Dry food is one of the most common types of goldfish food. Dry food is usually sold in cans and comes in either flakes or pellets. Flakes will stay at the top of the tank and pellets will typically sink to the bottom. Your goldfish will feed at the top and bottom of his tank, so you can use either type of dry food.  In general, dry food is fairly healthy for your goldfish, but does not have all of the nutrients that he needs. Because of this, dry food should not be the main component of your goldfish’s diet. Since flakes stay at the surface, the excess flakes can be removed easily, making the tank easier to keep clean. Live food is an excellent source of protein for your goldfish, and is considered to be the most important part of his diet. Examples of live food are earthworms, bloodworms, daphnia, and brine shrimp.  If not prepared properly, live food has the potential to transmit disease to your goldfish. To reduce the likelihood of disease transmission, purchase the live food from your local pet store, rather than searching in lakes, ponds, or the dirt.  Usually, brine shrimp and earthworms are highly unlikely to transmit disease.  Earthworms are more available during the summer months, during their breeding season. Brine shrimp are very tiny shrimp. They are extremely high in protein, so they should be used as treats rather than a regular part of your goldfish's diet. Frozen and freeze-dried foods often...

TL;DR in English: Learn what types of food your goldfish should eat. Include dry food in your goldfish's diet. Provide different types of live food for your goldfish. Identify frozen and freeze-dried dietary options for your goldfish. Include fruits and vegetables in your goldfish's diet.

Succulents are available in varieties that can grow in agricultural zones as cold as Zone 4 and as hot as Zone 9. If you live anywhere between Zones 4 and 7, go for the sempervivum or similar variety. For Zones 8 and 9, opt for more heat- and drought-tolerant varieties. Before you make the final purchase, read the label on the plant or speak to an expert at your local nursery. If you're not certain which zone you live in, visit the website for the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) or non-U.S. equivalent for assistance. Succulents need soil with good drainage. Avoid low spots in the garden where water can pool. If your garden soil stays soggy for a long period of time, read up on how to improve the drainage. You'll have this advantage if you live in a dry climate. Native succulents have their own built-in defenses against pests in your area. They also invite local beneficial insects that could help in the growth and propagation of other plant varieties in your garden. Visit your state or provincial government website, university websites, or local botanical societies for assistance.

TL;DR in English: Purchase zone-appropriate varieties. Check the drainage of your soil. Buy native varieties, if possible.

Roses grow best when they’re exposed to 6 hours of sun daily and are protected from harsh elements, such as wind. They also need to be planted in soil that drains well, or else rotting may occur. Choose a location in your yard to install your support that meets these needs. Choose a trellis or other similar structure that your roses can climb on. The support must be large enough and sturdy enough to hold the climbing rose in wet and windy conditions at its mature height. Choose a support that encourages horizontal growth, such as a fence, over a support that allows vertical growth, such as a rose tower. Also, consider ease of access for pruning.  A smaller climbing rose will do fine with a support that’s 2–5 feet (0.61–1.52 m) tall. A larger climber will require a large arbor, pergola, or other sturdy structure. Once a climbing rose is established, you won't be able to replace the support without severely damaging the plant. Try to purchase or build a support that will last for several decades. Once you’ve decided on a support and a location, it’s important that you secure your support to the ground. Anchor the base of the support with stakes to enhance its stability. If you’re leaning your support against a wall, be sure to place the base at least 1–2 feet (0.30–0.61 m) away from the wall to allow proper airflow, and so that you’ll be able to access the plant when doing necessary maintenance. Use measuring tape to measure 18–30 inches (46–76 cm) away from the base of your support. Use a shovel to dig a hole that’s 2 feet (0.61 m) deep and twice as wide as the plant’s root spread. This is where you’ll plant your roses. If you’re planting in an area that has a cold winter climate, put the plant in the hole and position the graft union of the plant, or the bulge where the top and bottom of the plant meet, about 2–6 inches (5.1–15.2 cm) below the soil level. Then, fill in the rest of the hole with soil. This should help to protect the plant from frost. If you’re planting in an area that has a warmer climate,...

Consider working with a career coach at a local university if you are a student. This will help you to figure out what you are good at. This will give you a better sense of what certain jobs entail. Many communities offer job fairs that can be found on your local city website. These are great opportunities to ask questions. You can ask friends or family members about their experiences too.  Ask about the hours they work, the highlights of their job, and what they find to be most challenging. Get opinions on the jobs you're considering and feedback about your plans to get there. However, follow up on these opinions with your own research. Someone who is dissatisfied with their job may not provide an accurate picture of what it’s really like. Job shadowing is a career evaluation activity that allows you the chance to spend time with a professional currently working in a particular career field. You can see what it’s really like working in a certain job.  Check with the local college to see if they offer a formal job shadowing program through their Career Services Office. Career counselors can also be a huge help in assisting you to find potential job shadowing opportunities. Government agencies also offer job shadowing programs for students who are interested. There are many free tests on the web that will psychoanalyze your mind to help narrow down interesting jobs for you. These tests are designed to provide you with specific jobs that fit your unique interests and ultimately help you down a career path. You...

Quizzes such as the AQ and RAADS can help give you a sense if you're on the spectrum. They are not a substitute for a professional diagnosis, but they are a useful tool.  Some professional questionnaires are available online. A truly autism-friendly organization is usually run partially or completely by autistic people, such as the Autistic Self-Advocacy Network and the Autistic Women and Nonbinary Network. These organizations provide a much clearer view of autism than organizations run exclusively by parents or family members do. Autistic people best understand their own lives and can offer the most insights.  Avoid toxic and negative autism organizations. Some autism-related groups say terrible things about autistic people, and may push pseudoscience.Autism Speaks is a prominent example of an organization that uses disaster rhetoric. Look for organizations that provide a more balanced point of view, and empower autistic voices instead of excluding them. Many autistic people love the blogosphere, where they can communicate freely. Many bloggers will discuss signs of autism and offer advice for people who are questioning whether they're on the spectrum. Many autistic people can be found in hashtags such as #ActuallyAutistic and #AskingAutistics. In general, the autistic community is very welcoming to people who are wondering if they are autistic, or who are self-diagnosed. What types of therapies do autistic people sometimes need? Do any of the therapies sound like they would help you? Check which therapies have scientific backing.   Remember that every autistic person is different. A therapy type that is useful to someone else may not be useful to you, and a therapy that someone else found unhelpful may help you. Be careful: scammers often target autistics and their families with fake therapies that may waste your money or even cause harm. Some therapies, notably ABA, may involve cruel methods or goals that focus on training you to act "normal" instead of helping you be healthy and happy. Many autistic...

TL;DR in English: Search for autism quizzes online. Turn to autism-friendly organizations. Read the work of autistic writers. Turn to social networking. Start researching therapies. Research similar conditions.

Your boyfriend would expect you to write "I love you" at the end of a letter or a text message, but he won't expect to see it written in the steam after his shower, in the hot sauce on his morning omelet, or on a blank page of his notebook that he sees when he's about to take notes for class. Finding a creative and unique place to write "I love you" will make him think even more fondly of you when you're not there, and will make him feel more romantic because you've made a special effort to let him know that you care. Just doing this once or twice a month can really show your boyfriend that you care. You don't have to overdo it. This can be a CD that reminds him of "your songs" or one that really takes his musical tastes into account and is a mix of things you actually think he likes. Don't recommend your favorite bands if you know they aren't his thing; but if you really know what he would like, then make him a mixed CD and pop it into his car's CD player when he's not looking. When he turns on the car, he'll get a pleasant surprise. Make sure you know what music he listens to, what music he already owns, and what he likes before you go and do this. Put together a scrapbook of all of your most meaningful memories. Put together photos of you together, tickets from your favorite concert, a menu from the restaurant where you first said, "I love you," or notes that you wrote each other throughout the course of your relationship. This can make a great anniversary or birthday gift, or you can give him the book just because. This book will make him see how far you've come in your relationship, and will make him appreciate you even more. Who says Valentine's Day is only for February 14th? If you're both busy that day, or if you just want to be romantic on a random Wednesday, then you should plan an celebrating Valentine's Day on whatever day works for you two; you can use this time to shower each other with love and affection, dress up, and eat something delicious. This fake Valentine's Day will be extra fun because...

TL;DR in English: Write "I love you" in hidden places. Make him a mixed CD. Make a scrapbook. Celebrate Valentine's Day early (or late). Act like a little kid. Take a pottery class together. Make a book of all of the emails you've written to each other.

You will need to make sure you have enough for each bottle or can. Once you’ve gathered enough, douse each in water. They should be completely wet, but not dripping. Too much water will cause them to stick to the beer completely and removing them will be difficult. Make sure the middle of each can or bottle is completely covered, as those portions are what will chill faster. If you're using paper towels, try using two instead of one for a thicker covering. Make sure to place the beers slightly apart as they’re likely to stick together if they’re touching. Once in the freezer, each beer should take 8-15 minutes to chill. Also, remember to watch the time, because leaving the beers in the freezer for too long may cause them to explode. To avoid any possible injury, try putting each beer in a Ziploc bag in case they crack or break open. This will make removal both safer and easier.

TL;DR in English:
