Type the answers. Remember, type the answers in with the first letter capitalized.

Make a list of people you admire, and write down the qualities they possess that you respect and appreciate about them. You will most likely find that none of them are perfect on the outside, but they possess admirable traits such as kindness, honesty, or dependability. You can keep these qualities in mind as you focus on your own path to developing internal beauty, and learn to reject the often impossible standards for beauty that mainstream society values.  Remind yourself that external beauty standards change according to cultural and social mores.  Women have, on average, 13 negative thoughts about their body daily.  Note the ways that mass media create and perpetuate often unattainable physical ideals of beauty for both men and women. Focus on what your positive traits, and practice replacing negative thoughts with positive self-talk. Positive thinking has numerous health benefits including increased life span and lower rates of depression.  Challenge yourself to write down three things that you like about yourself that aren’t related to your physical appearance. Thinking positive thoughts changes neural pathways in your brain and can help reshape how you view yourself.  Practice looking in the mirror, smiling, and complimenting yourself on an internal trait, such as your friendliness, kindness, or artistic ability, for example. The human brain cannot differentiate between a real and a fake smile, and smiling has proven psychological benefits.  Stand taller. Working on your posture helps you project a sense of confidence, thanks to the “feedback loop,” where merely imitating something can have actual, tangible results. Inner beauty is a reflection of truthfulness and honesty about who you are. Reject trying to be “perfect.” Seek out ways to be comfortable being yourself and present in the moment.  Focus on the future instead of the past. Part of living an authentic life is looking forward to trying new experiences. Getting stuck in the past stymies personal growth.  Be flexible. Challenge the parts of...

TL;DR in English: List qualities that form your personal definition of inner beauty. Think positively about your personality rather than your external appearance. Practice authenticity. Expand your self-knowledge and awareness. Pursue your personal potential.

Use a small drill bit between 1⁄8–1⁄4 inch (3.2–6.4 mm) wide to make the hole 3⁄4 inch (19 mm) from the end of the tip. Drill through both sides of the pen using a slow speed so you don’t crack the pen.

TL;DR in English: Drill a hole through the remaining part of the tip.

Organize your obligations into “Do,” “Don’t Do,” and “Delegate.”  Instead of trying to do it all, figure out which household tasks need to be done (your “Do” list), and which can wait (your “Don’t Do” list).  If there are things you could get your partner, your kids, or a hired hand to do – washing the dishes, walking the dog, and so on – separate them into your “Delegate” list.  This will rebalance your family’s time in such a way that you all have the ability to spend more time together, instead of you and/or your partner taking on a disproportionate amount of housework. Be realistic and honest when evaluating your time.  Don’t add something to your “Do” list just because you feel guilty. Organize your work tasks, too, so that you can identify which things need doing and which you can delegate to a coworker. You can lose a lot of time that can be spent with your family (or on yourself) by searching for misplaced keys, remote controls, and other essential belongings.  Choose a convenient location for your wallet or purse, your keys, and your glasses.  Get in the habit of placing these essentials – especially the things you seem to lose frequently – in the same place every day. For instance, you might choose to always put your glasses by the bedside, and your keys by the door. Look for ways to save time and use them whenever possible.  For instance, if your dry cleaner offers free pickup, or you can get your pizza delivered instead of picking it up, spring for these convenience services.  This will help you maximize your family time. If you’re enrolled in university, use the campus gym instead of trekking from school to the gym and then home. If you’re the type of person who rises to a challenge, you might benefit from trying to make and meet unique family-related goals.  Set a minimum amount of time to spend with your family each week – for instance, 15 hours.  Or you could try a qualitative goal like making your child smile at dinner. Change your family-time goals regularly to keep the contest fresh....

TL;DR in English: Prioritize your time. Organize your things. Take advantage of all your resources. Adopt family-time goals. Unplug when you’re at home. Don’t compare yourself to others.

Brown sugar tends to get hard due to air exposure. If you want to keep brown sugar soft, you're best option is to store your brown sugar in a sealable, airtight container as soon as you open it up.  Limit air exposure as much as possible when storing brown sugar. Choose a smaller container and pack the brown sugar to the top. Make sure to seal tightly, double checking for cracks and openings.  You may not find a small enough container. In this case, use a small Ziplock bag. Squeeze out all the excess air before sealing the bag. Kitchen shops and some grocery stores sell what are called terra cotta sugar savers. These are small, circular devices made from terra cotta clay. They are inexpensive, about $3 each, and can be easily used to soften brown sugar. They are designed to release moisture into your sugar, keeping it soft in storage.  After purchasing the terra cotta sugar saver, soak it in water for 15 minutes. Then, dry off the disk.  Store the sugar saver with the brown sugar. Ideally, you should be using the terra cotta sugar saver alongside a sealable airtight container or plastic bag.  If you add a sugar saver to a bag of brown sugar that's already hardened, it may take up to 8 hours for the sugar to soften. If you don't have a sugar saver, marshmallows work for some when it comes to keeping sugar soft. Throw a few marshmallows into your sugar container and see if it helps. Apples and bread are both fairly moist by nature. Adding a few slices of apples or a piece of bread to a bag of brown sugar can help keep it soft. The idea is the sugar will draw moisture from the bread or fruit. If you're adding apples or bread to hardened brown sugar, it may take a day before it begins to soften.

TL;DR in English: Store brown sugar in an airtight container. Use a terra cotta sugar saver. Add marshmallows to your bag. Store with apples and bread.

If you are on in vehicle with a lot of space, like a train or a boat, find a spot that has minimal distractions. In a smaller vehicle, like a plane or a bus, it may be hard to move around. Try looking for empty seats in the back of the plane or the bus. Your position is very important for reading in a vehicle where your space might be limited. Adjust your seat so that you have enough legroom. If possible, try leaning against the car door or leaning on the seat next to you. Uncomfortable positions can really hinder your reading. If you're in a position that's causing you pain, you may be more likely to feel nauseated when reading in a car. Hold your book firmly. Lean it against the window or car door. Also try resting it in your lap or on the seat next to you. It's important to stay hydrated when taking a long journey. If you aren't getting enough water, you could easily become nauseated or dizzy very quickly.  If this happens, take a sip. Food can also help to settle your stomach and help you get comfortable again. Bring light snacks. Heavy foods can lead to nausea. Bring snacks that don’t irritate your digestive system. Apples, pretzels, and carrots are examples of light snacks to take on your trip. Reading in a moving vehicle can be challenging for several reasons. Bumps in the road, turbulence, background noise, and other distractions may make reading impossible. You may want to take a break until things calm down. Don't push yourself.  If you're getting a headache or you can't understand what you're reading, take some time off from the book. There's no point to reading if you aren’t understanding the material.

TL;DR in English: Find a quiet space to read. Get comfortable. Rest your book against something. Have some food and water with you. Know when to stop.

For the juice, you’ll need 3 celery stalks, ½ large cucumber, 1 medium green apple, and 1 medium pear. To fit them through the juicer easier, it helps to cut them. Use a sharp knife to cut the cucumber into quarters, the apple cut into eighths, and the pear into eighths. It usually isn’t necessary to cut the celery stalks before you add them to the juicer, but you can chop them into smaller pieces if you prefer. After you’ve cut up the produce, turn your juicer on. Process the celery stalks, cucumber, apple, and pear through the juicer according to the manufacturer’s instructions in succession so all of the juices are combined. While the juices will be combined in the juicer’s receptacle, it’s a good idea to stir the mixture with a spoon to ensure that they’re completely blended. When all of the juices are blended, pour the mixture into a glass and drink at room temperature. If you prefer, you can chill the juice in the fridge before drinking. The recipe makes 12 ounces (355 ml) so make sure that you have a large enough glass or cup.

TL;DR in English: Cut the cucumber, apple, and pear. Run all of the ingredients through your juicer. Serve the juice at room temperature or chilled.

Your friend may feel that you are truly her only friend.  If this is the case, it's easy to understand why she may want to spend so much time with you.  Introducing your friend to some new people may help your friend to feel more connected to other people and start to branch out a bit more.  This can be a good way for you both to enjoy the company of other people and still maintain your friendship.  You can try hanging out together in larger groups to let your friend get to know other people. Ask your other friends to try and spend time with your clingy friend. If you tell your friend you are busy and can't hang out, suggest that they meet with other people who you both know. Don't feel pressured into meeting with your friend if you don't want to.  Whenever you are making plans, make sure that it's a plan you think would be enjoyable and that you have time for.  Always make sure that any time you are meeting with your friend that it will be good for both of you.  Don't feel pressured into meeting at a time or place that you don't want to. If you don’t want to meet up with your friend, then you might say something like, “That won’t work for me. Can we plan on a different day?” You might also want to set some basic limits.  For example, you might meet your friend once a month for a movie night. You might approach this limit by saying something like, “I like seeing movies with you, but I really only have the time and money to see a movie once per month. Let’s make the first Friday of the month our movie night.” If your friend is constantly calling or texting, you might need to tell her some specific days and times that are okay for her to contact you.  You might be at work or busy during certain times or days and unable to speak with your friend, or you might just not want to see your friend on certain days of the week. Try letting your friend know when you are free. For example, you might say, “I am really busy on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday, so I might not be able to talk at all on those days....

TL;DR in English: Introduce your friend to new people. Make plans you are comfortable with. Tell your friend what days are convenient for you. Encourage your friend to seek help. Confront your friend.

Dehydration is often caused by excessive sweating during exercise. You should work on hydrating before you engage in a heavy workout. It's best to start hydrating the day before. Drink extra water if you know you'll be doing something like running a marathon the next day.  Drink water until your urine is clear or pale yellow. While you exercise, carry a water bottle. Make sure to take sips of water on occasion while you're working out to replenish the fluids lost through sweat. Vomiting, diarrhea, and fever can lead to a loss of fluids. This can cause dehydration. Make an effort to drink extra fluids, especially water, when you're feeling ill. If you have trouble keeping fluids down, you can also try eating a little Jello or sucking on a popsicle or crushed ice. When it's extremely hot or cold outside, this can cause dehydration. Make an effort to up your water intake when it's very cold or hot out. This can help prevent dehydration in the future. Notice physical symptoms, such as dry skin or hands, during hot or cold weather. If you begin displaying symptoms of dehydration, start drinking water to replenish lost fluids.

TL;DR in English: Hydrate before and during exercise. Drink extra fluids when you're sick. Up your fluid intake during hot or cold weather.

Following a juicing diet can be complicated.  There are a variety of different diet plans, juices and methods for juicing.  Purchasing or researching recipes and eating plans can help you follow the plan more easily.  Spend some time researching different juice diets online.  There are a variety of juice diets to consider, so spending ample time reviewing a few will help you decide which is best or if you'd like to combine a few different diets. Also consider buying a juicing book or plan to have at home.  Having a resource you can refer to at home may be helpful. Some credible sources for juicing diets include:  Juicing for Health & Weight Loss from WebMD, How to Start Juicing: A 7 Day Meal Plan from EatingWell, Safe Juicing & Blending from the MayoClinic and 6 Things You Need to Know About Juicing from NCHR. After researching a variety of juicing diets, you may realize there are a variety of options to choose from.  If you're not following a specific plan, it may be helpful to write up your own meal plan to ensure you're maintaining a well-balanced and healthy diet.  Figure out how many meals you're replacing with juice or how much juice you'd like to consume each day.  You'll find some diets recommend consuming a certain amount of juice throughout the day.  For example, 1-2 servings of a "green" or vegetable based juice.  Arrange to consume a variety of juices in your day.  Plan to have both fruit and vegetable juices daily – not just one or the other. Also plan to use a variety of fruits and vegetables each day.  For example, maybe your morning juice has apples and kale while your afternoon choice has carrots, oranges and ginger. It's important to track your weight on any diet or weight loss plan.  This will help you record your progress and give you insight into how effective or ineffective a juice diet is for you.  It's ideal to weigh yourself once a day.  Purchase a home scale so you have the right tools at home to keep yourself on track. Jot down your daily weights.  It can be a fun and encouraging...

TL;DR in English: Purchase juicing resources. Write up a meal plan. Weigh yourself.

Make yourself a snack. Foods like almond butter, oranges, or hot tea can help reduce symptoms and make you feel better. Eating something can help take your mind off your period and help you to relax. Taking an anti-inflammatory medicine like ibuprofen can significantly ease cramps, headaches, or other symptoms.  Read the instructions and follow the recommended dosage precisely. Only do this if you are allowed to take medication when you are home alone. If you are not sure, be sure to call or text a parent. Staying hydrated can help ease your period symptoms, reduce cramping, bloating, and help your mood.  Try to drink eight glasses of water per day. If you don’t like water, try adding a slice of lemon or lime, or try bubbly water instead.  You may think drinking water will increase bloating, but this is actually caused by dehydration. The best way to combat bloating is to drink more water. Applying some heat to your lower stomach can do wonders for cramps. Scientists claim it can work as well as taking pain-killers for up to an hour.  Plug in a heating pad to let it warm up. Place a heating pad, hot water bottle, or warm damp paper towel on your belly or lower back until you feel relief. Make sure it is wrapped in fabric or you have a t-shirt between your skin and the heat compress so you don't burn yourself or irritate your skin. A little bit of stretching can help your abdominal muscles relax, which means less cramping. Yoga can also bring down your anxiety level and help you to feel better. The best thing for you to do is to stay calm and stress-free. Do things that you enjoy and get your mind off of having your period. Take this time to pamper yourself or just have a little down time.  Watch a movie. Paint your nails. Take a hot bath.

Know the key terms. Learn how compounding returns work. Use a time-weighted return to calculate your compound rate of return. Calculate your overall return. Know the Excel formulas for these calculations.

Generally, you need chemicals to remove polyurethane. Because these chemicals are often harsh, you need good ventilation to protect yourself. If you can, go outside to work. If you're working on floors, create cross-ventilation to help keep you safer. To create cross-ventilation, open the doors and windows in the room. Also, it's a good idea to set up one fan blowing inward and one fan blowing towards the outside to get the air moving. If you're working on a piece of furniture inside, you should put something down to shield the floor from drips. A plastic tarp underneath the piece of furniture should work well to provide protection. You can tape down the edges if you're worried about tripping. Paint stripper can do a number on you if you're not careful. You'll need rubber gloves to protect your hands. Wear goggles to protect your eyes. Finally, you'll need a vapor ventilator mask, also known as a respirator, available at hardware stores, so you don't inhale the fumes. You should also wear closed-toed shoes, long sleeves, and pants if possible. Chemical-based paint strippers, such as those with methylene chloride, are very effective. However, they're also more harsh on your skin and can cause respiratory problems if you're not careful. If you're worried about the effects, you can use water-based strippers instead, though they do take much longer to work.

TL;DR in English: Create cross-ventilation. Protect the floor. Protect yourself. Choose your paint stripper.

Overheating chocolate will make it very thick and hard to work with. To get the perfect texture, take your time as you melt the chocolate, and watch it carefully throughout the entire process. If you have a candy thermometer, make sure the chocolate does not exceed 115 °F (46 °C), or 110 °F (43 °C) if you are using milk or white chocolates, which are more heat-sensitive. Water causes chocolate to seize, or to thicken into a lumpy paste. Make sure your bowls and utensils are dry before you begin working with the chocolate, and do not add water in an attempt to thin out the chocolate. If a little water does accidentally get into your chocolate, adding more water can actually reverse the seizing process. Add 1 US tbsp (15 mL) of boiling water at a time, stirring vigorously after each addition. However, this will change the texture of your chocolate. Adding cold butter or oil can also cause your chocolate to seize. This is because the sugars cling together and separate from the fat when they cool too quickly, leading to a clumpy mess. Chilling your chocolate too quickly can also cause it to seize. Don’t pour your chocolate into a cold bowl or use cold ingredients, and allow it to cool to room temperature before you place it into the refrigerator or freezer.

TL;DR in English: Heat your chocolate slowly so it doesn’t become too thick. Do not add water to your chocolate. Don’t add cold ingredients to your chocolate.

If you just feel like you want to eat, but you aren't actually experiencing hunger, don't eat. This can be harder than it sounds! If you are in the habit of stress eating, you might not have a good sense of how hunger feels. When you have the urge to eat, first:  Check for a feeling of emptiness in your stomach. Notice if you are thirsty, rather than hungry. Drink water if so. Staying properly hydrated can reduce overeating. Ask yourself when you last ate, how much you last ate, and if it's reasonable to assume that you might be hungry again already. If you just ate a meal, for instance, you probably aren't still hungry. Walking around and snacking will make it easy for you to forget what you are doing, leading to stress eating. Plan your meals ahead of time so that you aren't deciding what to eat when you're hungry. Eat full meals with foods from all food groups. Don't substitute snacks or sweets for meals.  Eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner. If you can cook food ahead of time without binging it, cook for leftovers. If you tend to stress eat anything in the fridge, don't. When you eat, make it an event. Set the table, even if you're eating alone. Use a placemat, set out a napkin and utensils, and make sure you have water to wash your food down. If you are eating lunch at school or work, make sure you are eating somewhere you can focus, like a park bench or a breakroom table. Don't eat at your desk, and certainly don't eat while you work. Look at your food, smell it, and notice its flavor. Stress eating ruins your enjoyment of your meal. If you focus on your meal, you are more likely to enjoy it, and more likely to notice when you are full. Pause after you have eaten most of your meal, and ask yourself if you are still hungry. It will take a while for your body to notice it is full, so take a 15-20 minute break if you're not sure whether or not you're full. If you want to watch TV, check your phone, or read, do it after your eating is done. If you can't stand eating in silence, try chatting with others,...

TL;DR in English: Ask yourself if you are actually hungry before you eat. Eat sit-down meals. Pay attention to every bite. Notice yourself getting full. Don't do anything else while you eat. Eat foods you enjoy. Keep trigger foods out of your house.

You'll want to treat the direct surface of the memory foam to remove odors trapped inside.  Using covers and cases helps protect your memory foam and reduce the need for washing it directly.  Make sure to wash your covers and cases regularly. Cover the surface of the memory foam in a thin layer of baking soda. Do this in an area where the memory foam product won't need to be moved around, such as a table or floor. This will soak up odors and moisture trapped in your memory foam. Don't disturb the baking soda while it sits--cleaning up loose powder can be difficult. Use a soft brush extension and a low setting to gently remove the baking soda. This will leave you with fresh, odorless memory foam!

TL;DR in English: Remove any covers or cases to wash separately. Sprinkle baking soda over the surface. Let the baking soda sit for 24 hours. Vacuum up the baking soda.

Pick up lines are seen as cheesy, and they often won’t leave a great impression on girls. Instead of trying to get a girl’s attention with a pick up line, give her a small compliment and introduce yourself. Then, if the conversation starts to fizzle out after you’ve both introduced yourself, try asking her a question about herself. If she’s wearing an eye-catching backpack, you could say, “Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I really like your backpack.” It’s easy for the conversation to feel tense and forced in the first few minutes. Ease up the tension and make her feel more relaxed by cracking a small joke.  For example, if you drop your math notebook while you’re talking to her because you’re nervous, say something like “As you can see, I’m extremely graceful. It’s one of my many good qualities,” to lighten the mood and ease your nervousness. If you aren’t a particularly humorous person, don’t feel like you have to force out a joke. Just talk to her like you would one of your friends. Ask girls intelligent questions about their qualities, their favorite topics in school, and/or the relationships they have with friends and family members. Asking these kinds of questions may make girls see you as someone who is interested, thoughtful, and capable of thinking on a deeper level. Consider asking, “What’s your favorite book? And what is it that you love about it?” or “What’s your favorite memory?” You could also ask, “What do you like most about your personality?” Bad manners and disrespectful behavior will scare girls away fast. Girls aren’t impressed by arrogance or inconsiderateness, so make sure to be kind and courteous to them and everyone around while you’re interacting with them.  If you’re talking to a girl and your friend interrupts you and asks you a question, say “I’m sorry. Excuse me for just a second,” to the girl and politely ask your friend if you can find them later to talk. Before asking a girl a question that’s personal, start with “If you don’t mind me asking…” If you’re both walking into...

TL;DR in English: Start a conversation by giving a compliment. Ease the tension with light-hearted humor. Ask intelligent questions. Be polite. Be genuine. Follow the conversation. Try to talk about half of the time. Talk about multiple topics. Leave the conversation after a while.

In discussing annualized portfolio returns, there are several key terms that will come up repeatedly and are important for you to understand. These are as follows:  Annual Return: Total return earned on an investment over a period of one calendar year, including dividends, interest, and capital gains.   Annualized Return: Yearly rate of return which is inferred by extrapolating returns measured over periods either shorter or longer than one calendar year.   Average Return: Typical return earned per time period calculated by taking the total  return realized over a longer period and spreading it evenly over the (shorter) periods.   Compounding Return: A return that includes the results of re-investing interest, dividends, and capital gains.    Period: A specific length of time chosen to measure and calculate return, such as daily, monthly, quarterly, or annually. Periodic Return: The total return of an investment measured over a specific length of time. Compounding returns are growth on the gains that you have already earned. The longer your money compounds, the faster it will grow, and the greater your annualized returns will be. (Think of a snowball rolling downhill, getting bigger faster as it rolls.)  Let’s say you invest $100 and earn 100% on it your first year, leaving you with $200 at the end of year one. If you gain just 10% in the second year, you will have earned $20 on your $200 by the end of year two. However, if we say you earned just 50% during the first year, you would have $150 at the beginning of the second year. That same 10% gain in year two would earn 15 dollars rather than 20. This is a full 33% less than the 20 dollars you would have made in our first example. To further illustrate, let’s say you lost 50% in year one, leaving you with just 50 dollars. You would then need to earn 100% just to get back to even (100% of $50 = $50, and $50 + $50 = $100). The size and timing of gains play a huge role when accounting for compound returns and their effect on annualized returns. In other words,...

TL;DR in English:


Act a little tired on the afternoon or night of the party. Confirm your plans. Follow your usual evening routine. Wait patiently until it’s safe to start getting ready to go. Put a decoy in place.

Every science class you take will have an associated textbook.  And your science teacher will probably tell you which chapters you need to read in advance of every class.  Take the time and actually read that material - before class.  Knowing what to expect during the lecture will help you absorb the lecture material more effectively.  Highlight important terms and concepts in your textbook. Write down any questions you have.  If they aren’t answered in the lecture, make sure to ask. Some science teachers simply go through the textbook in class.  Others expand on what the textbook says.  If you teacher simply regurgitates the textbook in class, it’s probably more important to pay attention to what is being said, rather than writing everything down.  However, if your teacher is expanding on the subject matter, and outlining new concepts in class, make sure you take lots of good notes.  Some teachers will provide students with copies of their presentation slides - this is extremely helpful.  In this case you only need to make notes in addition to anything already written on the slide, rather than needing to copy the whole slide. Some teachers may covertly (or overtly) tell you if the topic their discussing will be on the final exam.  Make note of this.  They’re giving you a freebie - take it!  Consider sharing notes with other students.  You might have made a note about something they missed, and vice versa.  At the very least, make sure you have another student whom you can borrow notes from if you miss a class. And re-read your notes.  Make corrections or updates to your notes where required.  And highlight areas of the textbook where the teacher spent more time.  Make a list of any outstanding questions and email or talk to your teacher about them.  Rewrite your lecture notes.  Condense them this second time around.  Create flashcards from key terms and concepts. Re-draw important diagrams by hand.  Science includes a lot of diagrams, visualizations and charts, and memorizing them all isn’t an option. ...

TL;DR in English: Read the assigned material before class. Take notes in class. Re-read the assigned material after class.

If you're already shy, talking to your crush right away can be scary. Luckily, you can try to ease some of your social anxiety by reaching out to others first. Socializing more in general will help you feel comfortable eventually approaching your crush.  Start small. Try to make small talk whenever possible. For example, talk to classmates between classes or chat up a barista at a coffee shop. Think about joining clubs or doing volunteer work. This is a great way to meet people and push yourself out of your comfort zone by making yourself engage more. Relax if it feels stressful at first. Eventually, talking to other will be easy. It can be hard to deal with the anxiety associated with having a crush. A great way to sort through your feelings is reaching out to others. Talk to a trusted friend or adult about the feelings you're having and ask them for advice on how to deal. Sometimes, just venting about how you feel can make you feel more confident. Another person can also help you figure whether you want to tell your crush how you feel and the best means to do so. Be careful who you tell, however. Pick someone who's good at keeping secrets and who you trust not to tell anyone. It can be embarrassing to have your crush revealed by someone other than yourself. If you already like this person, getting to know them should be fun. The better you know your crush, the more confident you'll feel. Take small steps to get to know your crush better over time.  Make conversation with your crush whenever you can. For example, if you are on the school newspaper together, talk to them before and after meetings. Try to get to know your crush as a friend. Invite them out with your group of friends for a group activity, like seeing a movie. It may seem like a small thing, but confidence can actually help a lot with shyness. If you're feeling shy, try changing the way you dress. Splurge on some new clothes that make you feel great about yourself. Wear them to places where you know you'll encounter your crush. If you're dressed...

TL;DR in English: Ease your shyness by engaging with others. Talk to someone you trust. Take steps to get to know your crush better. Dress to feel confident.

Unfortunately, most grease fires happen when someone steps away just for a moment. Grease fires can happen in less than 30 seconds, though. Don't turn your back on hot grease. Cooking with a lid both contains the grease and cuts it off from its would-be oxygen supply. A grease fire can still erupt with the lid on the pot if the oil is hot enough, but it's far less likely to happen. Get into the habit of making sure these items are within easy reach when you're cooking with grease. If a fire erupts, you'll have at least three different ways to immediately snuff it out. Find out the smoking point of the particular oil you're using, then use a clip-on thermometer to monitor the temperature as you cook. If it gets to close to the smoking point, turn off the heat. If you see wisps of smoke or smell something acrid while you're cooking with oil, immediately turn down the heat or remove the pot from the burner. The oil won't immediately catch fire once it starts smoking, but smoke is a danger sign that it's getting close to that point.

TL;DR in English: Never leave the stove unattended when cooking with oil. Heat oil in a heavy pot with a metal lid. Keep baking soda, salt and cookie sheets nearby. Clip a thermometer to the side to monitor oil temperature. Watch for smoke and be aware of acrid smells.

If the person pointed out one particular action, that doesn't mean that they hate you or think you're horrible. They're just explaining that you did something hurtful, the same way they'd point out "I tripped over the mess you left in the hall" or "I don't like it when you tease about my nose." If someone says you are a racist person, this suggests a bigger problem. Maybe you've done multiple things that came off as racist. Being accused of racism is a serious accusation, and anyone making such a claim does not do so lightly. When someone says they think you're a racist, take them seriously. Make time to listen to their concerns.  Let the other party talk first before you respond; do not interrupt the other speaker.  Then, in a calm and measured way, say, “Wow, I am very concerned that you consider me a racist.  I’m interested in discussing this matter further.  Let’s do so in the privacy of (my office, a cafe, a quiet room, etc.).” If there is a power imbalance, they may be afraid to speak to you in a completely private place. If so, try a semi-public place, like a restaurant, a park bench, etc. Especially if they are a minority, they may be afraid of you, so do your best to put them at ease. This shows them that you are an understanding person who is willing to listen. For example, “I'm sorry if I've said or done anything hurtful. I'm really concerned about this. I want people of all races to feel safe and relaxed around me, so if I'm making people uncomfortable, I want to hear about it so I can learn from it.” Listen closely to what they have to say. It may be that you've made some mistakes, or that you said things that were interpreted differently than you intended. Tell them, “I want to know why you think this. What have I done that's racist?”  Listen attentively to their response. . Show sympathy for any racism they've faced, whether it was a misunderstanding or not. Make it clear that you care about their pain. (Some of it might be from other experiences that were not your fault.) This will help them...

TL;DR in English: Recognize the difference between an action being called racist and a person being called racist. Agree that there is a problem to be solved. Preemptively apologize, and show that you care about their feelings. Ask why they think you're racist. Validate their frustrations Don't consider yourself an expert on racism. Don't throw around evidence that you must not be racist. Acknowledge any racist things you have done. Clarify about any misinterpreted remarks. Acknowledge your limitations. Make amends for any harm done. Discuss any harm to your reputation.

It’s easy to over practice bowling and strain your arm, so break frequently and allow your arm time to recover in between practice sessions. To keep yourself from overdoing it, try practicing with the following maximum limits:  Players age 10 to 13: 12 yorkers/practice Players age 14 to 15: 14 yorkers/practice Players over 16: 20 yorkers/practice Yorkers are most commonly bowled at the end of games, so you may be tired in the moment you need to bowl a yorker the most. To give yourself the best chances of delivering a perfect yorker in tired-out condition, save yorker drills for the end of practice. Encourage yourself when practicing yorkers by rewarding yourself with one fewer lap run at the end of practice for every good yorker thrown. Try to start and end your run-up in the same position every time. When you take your final bound, keep it consistent and controlled. Have you tried snapping your wrist when you release the ball? This can add some heat to your yorker.

TL;DR in English: Set aside a block of time to drill yorkers during practice. Drill yorkers toward the end of practice. Perfect your speed and delivery.

This may help fool your parents and keep suspicion minimal. Don’t overdo it, but yawn a bit and mention that you’re feeling tired. If you want to sneak out successfully (and you do!), you’ll need to prepare and plan as much as possible in advance. Give yourself a couple of days to coordinate everything and confirm with your friends via text that the plan is still the same. When is the party? Where? How are you going to get there? Is there going to be drinking? Is it an all-nighter or will you have to leave after a while? Is there any chance of the police showing up? Are your friends going? How? Are their parents okay with it? This is all vital information! Shower, get into your nightclothes, eat dinner, watch television, do your homework - just act normal. Chill out at home until it's almost bedtime. Maybe watch something fun to get you in the party mood (without being obvious). When bedtime comes around, act sleepy. Say goodnight to your parents. Act normal and be believable. Go to bed as usual and turn off the lights. While in bed waiting for your parents to retire, you may want to listen to music with your headphones or read a book to pass the time. Whatever you decide, make sure to have as little light showing as possible. Once you know your parents have gone to bed, wait at least a half an hour to make sure they’re sound asleep. If your parents check on you before they go to bed, make sure that you pretend to be asleep when they come in. If they don't, then you're lucky and you can probably start getting ready earlier. It’s the oldest trick in the book, but it wouldn’t hurt to put a couple of pillows underneath your blanket to represent you, just in case a parent does wake up and comes to your room to check on you. Fluff the pillows and arrange them a little so that everything looks believable. If your room is dark and someone pops in for a look, they should be fooled by this.

Sometimes the way to give a shy guy a little push is to let him know how much you like him. Let him know regularly that you like him, laugh at his jokes, smile when he’s around, make sure that he sees how much you genuinely enjoy him and his company.  Shyness is directly related to a lack of confidence, so by instilling confidence in his position in your life by showing him that enjoy his company and that you value him in your life, he will be more likely to feel more confident with where he stands with you in the end. If your guy isn’t good at picking up nonverbal cues, it might be necessary to actually say to him every once in a while that you like him. If he says something funny, laugh genuinely, and then end it by saying, “Wow, I really like you” with a smile. Send visual cues that you want to be kissed by taking special care of your lips. Full kissable lips can be very alluring to your boyfriend.  Exfoliate your lips regularly by rubbing wet sugar against them in gentle circles. Keep them moisturized by applying a lip balm or gloss. Avoid wearing lipstick in moments you want to kiss your man. Lipstick can be a great way to show off your lips, but sometimes makes guys afraid to kiss you in public because the lipstick will be on their lips. If you insist on wearing lipstick, try a nude lip or something matte, since it’s less likely to transfer during kissing. Eyes can be one of the most power indicators of attraction and desire. Look into his eyes to show how engaged you are in him and his conversation. He’ll want what you want in no time at all.  When the two of you make eye contact, briefly bite your lip to bring attention to that area on your face, look at his mouth, and then return to his gaze. A more subtle way to give the hint that you want to be kissed is just to smile flirtatiously while you maintain eye contact with him. While you’re talking to him, send a subliminal message that you’re thinking about kissing his lips by looking at his mouth as he talks to you. Make it a point to drop your stare...

TL;DR in English: Make sure he knows how much you like him. Perfect your pout. Give him direct eye contact. Stare at his lips. Ask him if you can kiss him.

Many people fail to set personal boundaries because they feel guilty about it or think their needs don’t matter. However, your needs are just as important as anyone else’s, and you have to be in good mental and emotional health to be able to help others and fulfill your own responsibilities. Setting boundaries you’re comfortable with isn’t selfishness – it’s your right. In the long run, healthy boundaries don’t only benefit you. They also benefit your loved one with BPD by creating a clear sense of structure and predictability in the relationship. Determine ahead of time which limits you are going to establish with your loved one and why. One good way to define your boundaries is to think about your values. Good boundaries are a way of protecting the things that matter to you most and ensuring you aren’t pressured into activities or situations that go against the way you want to live. For instance, if your friend wants to talk on the phone with you every night, but you value spending evenings with your family, you might decide not to take your friend’s calls after five o’clock. It's important to think about what action you will take if your loved one does not respect your boundaries. If you don’t specify what your reactions will be and follow through with them, your loved one will probably not take your boundaries seriously. A good follow-up step should be something that follows naturally from the other person’s actions. For instance, you might decide that if your partner shouts at you again, you will leave the house for a few hours until they can calm down. The other person may be angry, hurt, or embarrassed when you tell them you need them to behave differently. They may take the change personally, accuse you of not loving them, or act out against the boundaries. Decide how you will handle various reactions so you aren’t caught off guard when it happens.

TL;DR in English: Make your own well-being a priority. Define your boundaries. Decide on follow-up steps when your boundaries are crossed. Prepare yourself for your loved one’s reactions to your boundaries.

Before you start your muscle-building workout season, consult a doctor. Muscle-building exercises are highly demanding to your body, and people with some chronic illnesses (such as cardiac conditions, high blood pressure, or stroke) may not be candidates for this type of workout. If you have high blood pressure (hypertension) you should not do heavy weightlifting without consulting your doctor. If your blood pressure is above 180/110 mm Hg, do not lift weights until you have normalized your blood pressure with medications. Strength training engages the muscles in your body and makes them work against a resistance. When you make your muscles work against a resistance, you are forcing your muscle fibers to respond to the added stress which leads to enhanced muscle size and definition. In order to build muscle, you need to add strength (also called resistance) training to your weekly routine.  Typical strength training programs use free weights (dumbbells, barbells), exercise machines, elastic tubing, or even just the body weight (pushups, pull-ups, crunches). Plan a balanced, total body  strength training program to build the muscles in your body (see third section). Muscle building is not fat burning. The best way to add muscle mass is weight training, while the way to get rid of muscles is extended cardio (you've never seen a Marathon runner with big muscles, have you?).  However, you should not forget cardio exercises entirely as these strengthen your cardiorespiratory system and have numerous other health benefits, including improving bone strength, reducing blood pressure, reducing risk of chronic illnesses (diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular conditions), and improved mood. Also keep in mind that reducing overall body fat with cardio can cause muscles to "pop," and your body can look leaner and stronger. The key when planning cardio routine during muscle-building season is to do shorter sprints instead of long, aerobic workouts. Focus on 20 minute high-intensity exercises with 30 to 60 second high-intensity...

TL;DR in English: Consult a physical trainer and/or a doctor. Plan your strength-training workout. Do not overdo cardio. Rest, rest, and rest. Learn the correct techniques and know the risks.

Often, the most challenging part of an SIP is figuring out what you want to investigate.  Take your time in choosing, because all of the subsequent steps will be based on the idea you select.  Think about something that interests, surprises, or confuses you, and consider whether it is something you can reasonably investigate for a project.  Formulate a single question that sums up you would like to examine.  For instance, say you've heard that you can make a simple solar oven out of a pizza box.  You may, however, be skeptical as to whether this can be done, or done consistently at least.  Therefore, your question might be:  "Can a simple solar oven be made that works consistently in various conditions?" Make sure the topic you select is manageable within your time frame, budget, and skill level, and that it doesn't break any rules for the assignment/fair/competition (for example, no animal testing). You can search for ideas online if you need help, but don't just copy a project you find there; this will also be against the rules and is unethical. However, you can modify an existing project to test a different hypothesis or look into a question that was not answered by previous experiments. This isn't an ethical breach, and can often make for interesting results and discussions. You can do this by reading reference and science books, searching online, or discussing it with knowledgeable people. Knowing your topic in more depth will help you construct your SIP.  Be aware of the requirements for your project.  Many science fairs require that you have at least three reputable academic sources such as peer-reviewed journal publications to use as references.  Your sources will need to be unbiased (not tied to a product for sale, for instance), timely (not an encyclopedia from 1965), and credible (not some anonymous comment on a blog post).  Web sources that are supported by a scientific organization or journal are a good bet.  Ask your teacher or project director for guidance if you need it. For instance, the...

If you’re feeling really stuck when you sit down to write, try a word association exercise to help engage your imagination. Open a dictionary, pick a word at random, and write down everything that comes to mind on the topic. This can be a good way to loosen up before you start writing, and you might even find a story idea as you’re reading through the list of words you came up with.  Choose something like “freedom,” and write everything that reminds you of freedom, such as birds, flying, or open sky. If you’re writing a report, do word association with the topic you want to write about. This can help you narrow down the focus of your paper before you even start researching. For instance, if you’re assigned to write about Abraham Lincoln, you might write words like “top hat,” “penny,” “Lincoln memorial,” “assassination,” “John Wilkes Booth,” “Gettysburg Address,” “Emancipation Proclamation,” and “Lincoln-Douglas debates.” Then, you might choose the area you’re most interested in as your topic. to generate ideas. Freewriting helps you get words on the page, regardless of theme or intention of the piece. Choose a topic, open up to a fresh page, and write. Don’t worry about what you are writing, just focus on filling the page. You can come back to your writing and expand upon it later, or do this just get the gears turning for your next piece.  Write a narrative or free associations. You can write for a certain amount of time or until you fill up a certain number of pages. This is your choice. For example, you might choose to write about tigers. Write everything that comes to mind about tigers, such as when you saw them at the zoo when you were 5, or what it would be like to be a tiger in the jungle. You could use this for a blog post on tigers, or simply to get ideas for your new novel. Music can help you concentrate, and it can also inspire your creativity, allowing you to think of new ideas. Turn on your favorite music, or try a new genre, like folk, classical, or instrumental. Then, think about your writing...

Figure out how wide to open your mouth. Think about what your eyes are doing. Distract the eye with other aspects of your appearance. Find your best angle. Practice your smile.

Before you begin scrubbing, scraping, and sanding, take a few minutes to make sure your work area is protected. Cut sheet plastic to fit over each opening and secure the edges using painters tape. Not only will this keep the areas you don’t want to paint covered, it will also help protect more delicate fixtures from damage. It may be a good idea to lay some sheeting at the base of the structure as well to catch wood shavings or flecks of paint that come loose during the project. Use a long-handled scrubber brush and a mild detergent to gently scrub away accumulated dirt, grime, mold, and other residue. When you’re satisfied with the wood’s appearance, rinse the exterior from top to bottom with a garden hose. Give the surface a full day to dry before moving on.  Pressure washing may be a more efficient option for renewing larger surfaces. Pressure washers are typically available to rent at hardware stores and home improvement centers.  Avoid using stiff brushes or scrubbers like steel wool. It’s possible for these tools to leave behind permanent scratches in softer woods. Apply the filler material using the tip of a putty knife or hand trowel, then go over it with the flat edge to smooth it. Smaller spots can be treated the same way, or you can purchase an exterior spackling compound, which won’t require any additional mixing. For most basic applications, the wood filler will dry in a few hours.  Two-part resin systems tend to stick to exterior wood better than ordinary fillers. Repairing damaged and uneven areas to ensure that the surface you’re painting is uniform and structurally sound. While you’ve got your wood filler handy, spread a small glob into any recessed nail holes you come across, then carefully blend the material into the surrounding surface. Bringing the holes to level will keep them from being visible under the new paint. If there are any nails sticking out of the exterior, remove them (if they’re not necessary) or drive them 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) into the face of the wood to get them out of the...

TL;DR in English: Mask any doors, windows, or other openings with plastic. Clean the wood surface thoroughly. Patch large holes and gouges with wood filler. Fill visible nail holes.

In this case, you're working with the numbers 2, 4, 5, 5, 4, and 5. It can help to order them from least to greatest here too. Think: "Mode is most." In this example, the number 5 occurs the most, so that is the mode. If there are two numbers that occur the most, then that set is "bimodal," and if more than two numbers occur the most, then the set is "multi-modal."

TL;DR in English: Write down all of the numbers in the set. Find the number that occurs the most.

Slowing your speech so others can “understand” you better makes the listener feel inferior since it is the way an adult speaks to a child. When you are explaining something to someone, don’t assume that they are the problem. It is more likely that you are not explaining it clearly or correctly. For example, don’t say, “I. will. be. studying. the. way. humans. interact. in. groups.” Instead, speak normally by saying, “I will be studying the way humans interact in groups. Let me explain what I mean by interact.” Referring to yourself in third person gives you an air of superiority. It is something that you should avoid doing if you do not want seem condescending.  For example, don’t say, “She won a prestigious award for her paper” if you are referring to yourself. Also, try not to emphasize the my’s and I’s in your speech, for example, “MY opinion, is that MY book is the better book.” While conversing with others, always keep your head and chin level. If you point your chin up with your forehead back while looking down your nose, you will seem superior. This head position signals that you think you know more than the other person, and that your opinion is more important and valid. Also, try to avoid impatient body language, such as loud sighs, eye-rolling, constantly looking at your watch or your phone, drumming your fingers, and yawning.

TL;DR in English: Speak at a normal pace. Try to not refer to yourself in the third person. Level your head and chin.

Arrange the chairs in a horseshoe shape or a semi-circle to facilitate conversation and post the ground rules on a board or wall where all participants can see them. Ensure a blank piece of paper on a board or wall, or a writing board, to brainstorm or document ideas and notes from the participants. Activities or games can increase engagement and participation. Activities may occur in small or large groups. Depending on the ground rules of the workshop, invite participants to ask questions either throughout the workshop or in scheduled time slots.

As with an in-person interview, the interviewer will introduce themselves and probably talk a little about the position. As they’re doing this, it’s fine to say “OK” or “right” a few times to show that you’re listening and engaged, but don’t try and force yourself into the conversation. Immediately starting to chatter will come off as rude or slightly annoying, so just be patient and wait to jump in until they start asking you questions. The interviewer will likely tell you new details about the job or company that weren’t in the original posting, so use pen and paper to jot them down. As you think up questions for the interviewer, write them down to ask at the end of your conversation. Writing and even doodling during the interview may also help you stay relaxed. and stay upbeat. Talk at a normal speaking level, or slightly louder if you have a naturally soft voice. Enunciate, speak slowly, and avoid mumbling. Convey your energy by allowing your voice to go up and down naturally in pitch, rather than speaking in a monotone. Your voice is the only part of you that the interviewer can interact with, so make sure you sound confident, calm, and interested the whole time. Avoid using too many filler words, such as “um” and “like.” Instead, try taking a small pause or a breath at those points, or saying something like “and so…” In particular, make sure to smile when asking questions and speaking about the work you’ve done and your excitement about the company. The interviewer will be able to hear when you’re smiling just by the sound of your voice, and they’ll hear that you’re engaged, energetic, and confident. Phone interviews tend to be shorter than in-person interviews, so make the most of your time by answering questions directly and straight to the point. Keeping your answers to 3-4 sentences in length will help you avoid rambling, while giving you enough time to fully express point. Slumping in your seat and slouching over make an impact on the way your voice sounds. Sitting up straight in your chair with...

There are all types of smiles - wide, toothy grins that show all of your teeth, more subtle smiles that put just the top row of teeth on display, mostly closed-mouth smiles that reveal just a glimmer of white, and completely closed smiles that show no teeth at all. By choosing how wide to open your mouth, you can control how the world sees your teeth.  Practice different degrees of openness to see which smile looks best on you. It's your smile, and there are no rules about how it should look! That said, try to get comfortable revealing at least a glimpse of your teeth when you smile, because it's very hard to keep your mouth closed when you smile out of happiness. Aim to smile in a way that helps you look your best while also creating a natural-looking expression of cheer. Keep in mind that a smile is often the first impression we have of other people. Think about meeting someone for the first time: what would impression would you get if they seemed to be making an effort to keep their mouth closed instead of breaking into a full smile? It's better to reveal some teeth and have your smile look natural than to close your mouth and look as though you are hiding something. Projecting confidence is more important than projecting perfection, so open up! Perhaps you've heard of smizing - the act of smiling with your eyes, not just your mouth. Engaging your eyes as part of your smile automatically helps it read as more authentic and pleasant. For those who are worried about how their teeth look, smiling with the eyes can draw attention to the top of the face and away from the mouth. Smiling with your eyes - also called a Duchenne smile - enables you to have a bright, happy smile without needing to open your mouth wide.  Try it in the mirror. First, smile without using your eyes. Do you see the jack-o-lantern effect? The smile doesn't look happy, it looks . . . a little scary and fake. Now try smiling with your whole face, especially your eyes. This type of smile looks like a true expression of happiness. Practice...

You may want to consider including some protein shakes in your daily meal plan.  Some studies have shown that 100% whey shakes can help you lose weight, increase muscle mass easier and increase strength.  Whey protein is a derivative of milk.  It contains all the essential amino acids your body cannot make itself.  Since it's a complete protein, it's a high quality protein to use. You can use your protein shake as a snack or use it to fuel or recover from a workout.  Remember, try to stay within your protein goal for the day.  More is not always better. Other options for protein shakes include egg white protein, pea protein, or hemp protein. You can find protein powders specifically made for women or people with dietary restrictions, such as vegans. Creatine is a fairly common supplement used by many athletes and people looking to improve their performance.  Some studies have shown that there are some benefits to using creatine if you want to increase muscle strength and performance.  Creatine is made naturally in the body by the liver.  It's transported in the blood to help supply energy to all cells.  However, most creatine is used and stored by your skeletal muscles.  Creatine may help you build more strength and muscle bulk because it provides you with additional energy to do more repetitions and higher weights.  You should always talk to your doctor prior to starting any supplements (as they are not regulated by the FDA).  Ask if it would be safe and appropriate for you. Discontinue use if you feel any of the following symptoms:  nausea, cramping, diarrhea or stomach pains. Having a cup of coffee before a workout is another option that's a natural way of boosting your performance.   Studies show that when you drink coffee prior to a workout you can train longer and use a higher weight.  In addition, if you're doing cardio, you can finish more quickly.  It's typically recommended to drink 1 6-8 oz cup of coffee prior to your workout. This contains about 80-100 mg of caffeine which is all you need before...

TL;DR in English: Include protein shakes. Consider creatine. Indulge in moderate amounts of caffeine.

It is likely that you already know what you don’t want in your life. What you need to do next is identify your preferences, and then pinpoint exactly what you do want in life. The more clear you desires without reservation, the more effectively you can work toward them.  If you know what you want, it is harder for others to convince you to do their bidding. This is crucial both to generating your own success and to stop having your time and energy used by someone else. Sometimes guilt and stress can cause you to work against what you desire. Knowing what you want will make you stronger when facing these difficult situations. Once you know exactly what you want, it is likely that you’ll have to delegate some things to other people. Communicate exactly what you want and expect to those around you. Do not compromise on your desires. You might have to trade some of your time and talent to get another person to do what you need, but set boundaries and do not let the other person use your desires against you. When you agree to do things that will not benefit your goals, you are wasting time. Do not give your time away. Engage only in activities that further your personal goals, and politely decline any other requests or invitations.  Be direct. Say “No, I cannot (or will not) do that.” If you prefer to add an explanation, such as “I don’t have the time to commit,” that is okay, but not necessary.  This can be difficult when are being guilted. Things like charities that you do not support, friends that want your help, and even family that demands too much of your time can be serious hurdles to your success. Say “No.” Whether you are speaking for yourself or your company, organization, community, etc., it is often hard to accept the fact that you can benefit by working with other human beings, but it’s true. Cooperating with others can be a healthier and more effective way to reach your goals. Make sure that the relationship remains mutually beneficial and that neither party is being used. Relationships go two ways....

TL;DR in English: Know what you want. Communicate your desires. Say “No” to anything that doesn’t benefit you. Consider cooperating with others. Contemplate the motives of other people.

The riser is the small pipe that connects the sprinkler to the water line. The sprinkler head sits on the riser, which helps to regulate its up-and-down movement, rather than directly on the water line itself. To remove the sprinkler head, twist it to the left, or counterclockwise.  If the riser comes off with the sprinkler head, simply unscrew the two pieces and reattach the riser to the water line, being careful not to damage the threading of either piece in the process.  Be careful not to let too much dirt or debris fall into the open water line. It may help to cover it with a small cloth or plastic bag while you're working. To ensure that you're getting the type of head you need, take the old part to the store with you and purchase the same brand and model. If for some reason that's not an option, confirm that the new head has the same overall length and diameter as the old one.  Sprinkler heads come in several different sizes and lengths. If you get one that's too long, it will stick up high out of the grass after you install it. If it's too short, it may not reach the surface of your lawn from its seat on the water line. Consider shopping around for a head that features a removable flush cap rather than a traditional nozzle. Flush caps make it easy to clear dirt from the head following installation or use. Wind the tape neatly around the riser threads so that it forms a thin, uniform layer. Applying thread seal tape (also known as “Teflon tape”) will fill excess space between the riser and the body of the sprinkler head, creating a snug connection and decreasing the chances of future leaks.  You can find thread seal tape in the plumbing aisle of any hardware store or home improvement center. It's not necessary to use thread seal tape on polyethylene risers, as the soft plastic will typically bend and expand enough to form a secure seal on its own. Position the female end of the sprinkler head over the male end of the riser and twist it to the right (clockwise) to install it. Continue tightening the head...

TL;DR in English: Unscrew the faulty sprinkler head from the riser. Buy a replacement sprinkler head that's the same size as the old one. Wrap a length of thread seal tape around the male end of the riser. Screw on the new sprinkler head. Adjust the sprinkler nozzle to direct the spray pattern where you want it.

A variety of different materials can be used to make art and each of these materials will create a different visual effect. For example, sculptors can use stone, marble, wire or wood to create their art. Similarly, painters can use watercolours, oil, chalk, and pencil. When you are looking at art, comment on the materials or medium used to create the image. If you can't identify them, look at the label. In order to sound knowledgeable while discussing art, learn to identify the style of art. For example, some common and recognizable styles include abstract, realist, expressionist, surrealist, or impressionist. A piece of art that uses realism can be easily identified because the artist attempts to create an image that looks real, almost like a photograph.  Alternatively, an abstract piece of art does not attempt to mimic reality and instead, can include random splatters of paint or lines to create a thought provoking image. Familiarize yourself with the different styles by searching online for images of the different styles of art. For example, search for "impressionist images." Visit museums, which often group art by style. You may find yourself in a room of surrealist paintings, for instance. The style of art can also be described by looking at the content of the image. For example, learn the differences between portraits (image of a person), landscapes (image of a place), or still life (image of an object) works of art. It is also a good idea to know some descriptive words that you can use while describing art. You can use them to describe the mood of the painting, as you perceive it:  Dynamic Intimate Suggestive Challenging You may have heard of renaissance art, modern art, or cubism before. These are a few different time periods and movements within art history. To talk about a work of art, check its time period. Consider how the historic moment impacted the way that art was created.   Consider the movements that were happening at that time. For example, Cubism was a type of modern art that was developed...

TL;DR in English: Talk about the materials used. Identify the style of art. Consider the content. Familiarize yourself with common descriptive terms. Check the time period of the piece.

Most people find that just knowing they should quit isn’t enough of a motivation to do so. To quit any type of addiction, it’s necessary to have a rock solid reason that means more to you than smoking cigarettes ever could. Think deeply about why you personally want to quit. In other words, what’s your motivation for living a full, healthy life?  Many people can only find the strength to quit when they realize they’re doing it for someone they love. Is your inspiration for quitting the fact that you want to live to see your children or grandchildren grow up, or you want to grow old with your partner? Perhaps the reason is that you don’t want to ruin your own health. Maybe you have a list of things you want to accomplish before you die, like writing a novel or hiking the Pacific Crest Trail. If you’re hard up financially, saving money can also serve as a motivation, especially when you consider all the other things you could be spending it on. Make sure to write down your reasons for quitting as well as the reasons why you smoke. Having this written out will make it easier for you to remind yourself of your reasons for quitting, which is crucial since the psychological aspects of smoking are far more powerful than the physiological aspects. It is helpful to tell people about your plan and let them know when your start date will be. If you tell everyone you know that you’re quitting on your birthday, you’ll be more likely to hold yourself to it. Tell people who you know will be supportive of your plan.You can also ask friends and family members to help hold you accountable. For example, you can promise to pay them a certain amount of money if they see you smoking. This may help to motivate you to stick to your plan. In the days leading up to your quit date, start getting rid of the stuff that helps support your habit. Toss out all your special papers, your ashtrays, and other items that remind you of smoking. Keeping them around is a sign that you’re not really committed to quitting, since you must assume that...

TL;DR in English: Examine your reasons for quitting. Tell people about your start date and plan to quit. Get rid of your cigarettes and paraphernalia. Taper off or quit cold turkey.

Human products are designed specifically for humans, not pets. They often contain harsh chemicals that can harm your pet.  Dye can be absorbed through your pet’s skin and make it sick. Your pet can potentially lick the dye and that could harm it. This could further harm it or cause further harm. Always check with your vet to make sure that this grooming is safe. These dyes are made from natural products. Read the label and talk to your vet to make sure that the ingredients will not cause harm via skin absorption or consumption. Some non-organic food dye (Blue 1, Citrus Red 2) have been linked to adverse effects in animals including allergic reactions and tumors. Always talk to your vet before using anything on your pet. If you are feeling particularly crafty, you can use the actual food product to produce a colorful dye. By going straight to the source, you will know exactly what is included in the dye. Dye foods include asparagus, beets, sweet potatoes, strawberries, spinach, cranberries, and carrots. There are pet-friendly dye chalks that may be used to temporarily dye your pet’s fur. As always, check with your vet before application. This is incredibly toxic for pets (and humans) and will only result in illness or even death. Do not use anything that will cause your dog pain! This includes acids or bleaches. Be safe and take care!.

TL;DR in English: Avoid using human hair dye. Do not dye a pet with existing health conditions. Use organic food dye. Use organic foods. Try an organic chalk. Do NOT use spray paint.

There are times when your cat will behave in a way that needs disciplining. Just as it's crucial to let your cat know he's doing something right, it's equally important to show him what not to do. It's important to be consistent, so your cat recognizes his actions as bad behavior every time. Use a special tone of voice when your cat acts badly. There's no need to shout or yell because this may scare your cat too much. Instead, establish a harsh tone that lets your cat know he has done you wrong. He'll recognize it every time he acts badly. For effect, add his name to your complaint, such as saying "Bad Spike!" in a particularly harsh, even tone. This will help your cat recognize that he has erred, the downside of this method however, is that your cat may associate his name with bad behaviour. There are two ways that you can remove your cat from a situation where he is misbehaving. You can isolate your kitty. If your cat is prone to eating your dinner, for example, you can exile him to your bedroom during dinner time. Though his meowing by the door may break your heart, it'll teach him not to repeat his mistakes.  You can also remove him from the room after grabbing scruff of his neck. If your cat is being feisty with you and biting or scratching, you can grab him by the scruff of the neck and say “no.” If he keeps being bad, pick him up and take him to a different room, still saying no. Never pick a cat up by the scruff. It may hurt your cat and he may be able to hurt you by scratching you. Be aware that cat bites can quickly turn into a dangerous infection. To get your cat to stop doing a particular action, use a well-timed squirt of water from a water bottle to deter unwanted behaviors. This can include behaviors like jumping on counters or biting plant leaves. This should be done stealthily so the cat does not know that the squirt came from you. Try squirting the cat when he isn't looking at you or his back is turned from you. Otherwise, the cat will associate you with the water and be wary or fearful of...

TL;DR in English: Use a special tone of voice. Remove your cat from the situation. Use the water aversion method. Set booby-traps. Be firm and consistent.

Though it may sound a bit cheesy, a lot of how we think about time and work is our mindset. If you're thinking to yourself, "This is the 35,098,509th sandwich I've had to make today," work is going to stink. Those seconds will feel like they're ticking through molasses in January. But instead, imagine thinking, "This is the 35,098,509th person I've fed today." Way better, huh? Though it'll take definite focus and concentration, think about the good you're doing, and the good job you're doing; take pride in your work. Even if it's on a minuscule scale, your work matters. It matters to someone, even if that person's not you. With a more positive attitude, that clock can be on your side. There's a reason the term "go postal" exists. A while back, there were a series of murders by postal workers. One of the arguments is that the monotony of the job caused the workers to "go postal." Why is this a factor? Everyone needs goals and something to work toward. If you're making your umpteenth sandwich or delivering your umpteenth piece of mail, it's easy to feel like you're floundering, getting nothing done. Your boss may not give goals to you, but you can make them. What's your goal for the day? If it's easiest, just think for today. Once you get the hang of it, set a goal for the week. This can give you drive to get things done. And the more you get things done and are kept busy and distracted, the more quickly time will pass. In your job, you probably have a series of duties you have to complete. More than likely there are some you like and some you don't. There might even be some you dread. Do yourself a favor and ask your boss if you can concentrate on the tasks you enjoy. Time will go by much more effortlessly when you're having a bit more fun. This is good for your boss, too. A happier worker who enjoys what he or she is doing gets more done and is more likely to stick around for the long-term, too. You may think it's slacking, but it's just the opposite: taking breaks can up your brain's ability to focus and get...

TL;DR in English: Focus on the service you're providing. Set goals. Ask your boss to work on something you enjoy more. Take breaks. Do your tasks with your body in mind.

Use clean, room temperature tap water. Fill the tank about halfway full. White vinegar cleans, disinfects and helps break down any oils stuck inside the diffuser. Add approximately 10 drops of white vinegar to your tank. Make sure you use pure white vinegar. You shouldn't use anything with chemical additives on a diffuser. Plug in your diffuser and turn it on. Let it run for 10 to 15 minutes. This will loosen up any oils stuck on the side of the diffuser. After running the diffuser, unplug it. Dump out any water from the tank down the sink, the same way you would when normally using the diffuser. Use either a soft cloth, cotton swab, or small brush to wipe down the diffuser's tank. Target any stuck on grime on the sides of the tank. These can dilute smells when you use your diffuser. Make sure to wipe any grime off the mist chip on your diffuser. If this is blocked, it can cause a diffuser to run improperly. Once the inside is clean, take a soft rag, cotton swab, or brush dampened with water. Wipe off any dirt, debris, or smudges like fingerprints from the diffuser. Be careful not to get any water into the buttons or under the machine.

TL;DR in English: Fill your diffuser with water. Add 10 drops of white vinegar. Run the diffuser for 10 to 15 minutes. Dump out the water. Wipe down the inside of the diffuser. Wipe down the outside of the diffuser.

If you are in college or getting ready to start college, consider majoring in a field that will help you support your cause. For example, you could major in a field like organizational leadership, or you could focus on something more specific to the cause you are interested in, e.g., environmental science or women’s studies. If you're new to the workforce, internships can be a great way to begin a career as an activist. During college or just after college, look for internships related to your interests. See if your favorite grassroots organizations and non-profits offer internships. Talk to your college advisor about where to find internships related to activism. Completing one or more relevant internships can put you on the right track to becoming a career activist. Some degree programs may require you to complete an internship to graduate. Make sure you check your graduation requirements and complete an internship if it's necessary for your degree. If you are ready to start working, look for jobs that are relevant to your interests. See if charities and grassroots organizations you believe in having any open positions that are suited to your skills. For example, if you have strong writing and editing skills, see if you can work as a copywriter for a grassroots organization. If you have skills with planning and coordinating events, look for work as a volunteer coordinator. Basically, whatever job skills you have are probably useful to some activist organization out there that supports your cause — they may need accountants, drivers, cooks, carpenters, doctors, etc.
