This is a very useful skill you'll obtain after switching to Magic Knight class. Players in PvP mode often use this technique to stun their enemy, making them vulnerable to skill attacks or combo. This type of attack also works on monsters to canceling any skill cast or make them flinch to make them open for any combination.  Fireball Dash unleashes a huge fireball skill after running. To execute this skill, simply double tap the arrow button toward your enemy, and while running, press Z, Z, X. When you press Z, your character will slash the opponent after the dash, hitting them twice with 120%–160%. Pressing X will execute the fireball within the combo, unleashing 270% magic damage. Aerial Fireball is another approach in releasing Fireball attack. This occurs when you jump to avoid any opponent then unleash Fireball while in mid-air. To execute this combo, run toward the enemy by tapping the arrow button and then jump by pressing up, followed by X and Z. By the time you jump and pressed X, your character will swing his sword, damaging any enemies who attempts to jump with you, causing 200% physical damage. At Z, you will release your Fireball, which will cause 200% magic damage. This is best done with fast combo execution. As Magic Knight are great with mid-range attacks with their Fireball skills, enemies will attempt on doing more close-range attacks to prevent you from doing more Fireball combo.  Most enemies will now dash toward at you then slash before you could swing your sword. To prevent this, use the Knockback Slash to knock them back, making them fall to the ground and vulnerable to your next combo. Simply tap on the arrows twice toward your enemy's direction to run and then press Z after the dash, followed by two more Z to attack. The first slash will inflict 120% damage if you manage to land a hit on your opponent. 160% for the second attack and 200% physical damage to the third. This combo also works on some boss. Use this skill to your advantage, for this increases your chance in surviving the game.

TL;DR in English: Use Fireball. Use Knockback.

Living together may be the first time you have to talk about finances as a couple. Talk about whether rent and utilities will be split or if one person will pay more. Discuss any debts or other personal expenses and how they will be handled. When it comes to groceries and household items, decide who will pay what. For example, decide how you will address paying for shared items such as groceries or household items. Once you decide to live together, you’ll need to find to find a way to divide housework. Have a discussion about expectations. Don’t assume you’re on the same page with cleanliness or who’s expected to do chores. Write a list of typical chores that both of you want to be done and find a way to split responsibilities or come to an arrangement you both feel good about. Write a chore board so that each of you know exactly what to do by what day. Figure out the small details about living together. For example, decide if both of you go food shopping or you will alternate each week. When it comes to cooking, decide how meals will be prepared and who will clean up after them. While these are small tasks, they can add up. Making plans and decisions ahead of time can prevent disagreements and fights. Make your home feel like it belongs to each of you. This is especially important if one partner is moving into the other partner’s place. Find some decorations that you both enjoy and be willing to move furniture or make some changes, big or small. Both people should feel represented in your home together. One way to make your space feel special is to create a painting or piece of art together for your home. Hang it up and be proud of the art you made as a couple. While in the past you’ve had time to work through conflicts on your own, you now live together and may need to resolve problems differently. Some people tend to avoid conflicts while others erupt or get very emotionally invested. Ask your partner to tell you about how they handle conflicts, then share your own experience.  Once you do hit conflicts,...

TL;DR in English: Talk about money and bills. Create a plan for housework. Work out small details of daily living. Create a shared space. Talk about how you handle disagreements.

It has an icon that resembles a grass block.  Click this icon in the Windows Start menu or Applications folder on Mac to open Minecraft. If you have never run Minecraft before, click Play to launch Minecraft and then quit the game once before creating a new installation in the Launcher. It's the second tab at the top of the Launcher.  This displays all the Minecraft installations you have. It's in the upper-right corner.  This opens a window that allows you to create a new Minecraft installation. It's the blank field at the top of the New Installation window.  You can name it anything you want, but it is easiest if you just name it Pixelmon.

Wave your arms over your head. Unzip your jacket and open it so you seem bigger. Don’t scream or make any high-pitched noises. Speaking in a low voice will show the wild animal you’re a human and not prey. Do not turn away and run or you could trigger the animal to attack. Maintain eye contact with the animal as you’re backing away. This will make you look small and weak to wild cats and wolves. Maintain an upright standing position so the animal knows you’re a human and not prey. If you’re with children, it’s important that you pick them up without crouching down or bending over. Reach your arms down to grab them without lowering your body. Only do this if you can reach rocks or branches without having to crouch, bend over, or turn away. And if you have pepper spray, that can work too because it's eyes don't like pepper spray, so you can run away to safety afterwards. You don’t need to aim for the animal itself. You’re just trying to scare it off by throwing things near it. If a wild cat or wolf approaches you, start throwing things directly at it. Try to remain standing as wild cats and wolves will most likely try to bite your head and neck. Use any tools you have available to hit the animal in the head, including nearby rocks and branches. If you have nothing to fight with, use your fists. Continue beating the animal as hard as possible until it flees.

TL;DR in English:


Feed the fry. Wait for the fish to mature. Separate the males and the females.

Improper tube feeding, by overfeeding or putting the tube down the trachea instead of the esophagus, can lead to aspiration pneumonia in young puppies. If you tube feed your puppy, doing it correctly can prevent another bout of aspiration pneumonia:  Make sure no air bubbles are in the milk formula. Before inserting the feeding tube, measure it from your puppy’s mouth to its last rib. Place your puppy on its side to do the measuring. Slowly thread the tube over the puppy’s tongue and down the throat. Run your thumb and index finger along your puppy’s neck to make sure you can feel the trachea and the feeding tube. Do not hold your puppy by its abdomen after the tube feeding. When giving oral liquid medications to a puppy using a syringe, it can be easy for that medication to end up in the puppy’s lungs, causing aspiration pneumonia. To prevent aspiration pneumonia when giving liquid medication:  Hold your puppy’s head in your non-dominant hand and the syringe in your dominant hand. Place the syringe in your puppy’s mouth and angle it to the side. Do not angle it toward the back of the throat—the medication could end up in your puppy’s lungs. Slowly empty the syringe. Place just a few drops in your puppy’s mouth at a time, giving it time to swallow and breathe. If your young puppy has cleft palate, it will likely need surgery to prevent aspiration pneumonia from happening again. During the surgery, your vet will close the opening in the top of your puppy’s mouth, lessening the chance of liquid or food going into the lungs.  Surgery could also be needed if your puppy breathed a foreign object into its lungs.  If you decide on surgery, your vet will take special precautions to ensure your puppy does not accidentally breathe anything into its lungs before it has fully woken up from surgery. Surgery can be expensive. If you have financial concerns, discuss these with your vet when deciding on whether your puppy should have surgery.

TL;DR in English: Tube feed your puppy carefully. Use caution when giving liquid medications. Correct your puppy’s cleft palate.

Your “calf muscle” is actually made up of three muscles that are attached to the Achilles tendon in the posterior lower leg. These three muscles are the gastrocnemius, the soleus, and the plantaris. Most of the injuries that occur to the calf are actually injuries to the gastrocnemius, the largest of the three.  Your gastrocnemius crosses your knee and ankle joints. It is also made up of many fast-twitch muscle fibers. This combination puts it at high risk for straining and tearing because it is constantly subjected to rapid stretching and contraction.  Your soleus crosses your ankle joint. It is mostly made up of slow-twitch muscle fibers. Because of this combination, it is less likely to be injured than your gastrocnemius. However, treatment is often different for injuries to the soleus.  The plantaris doesn’t do much in your calf. It is considered a largely vestigial muscle. If it is injured, treatment is the same as for a gastrocnemius injury.  Your Achilles tendon connects these calf muscles to your heel bone. This tendon can also be injured and cause calf pain. Common injuries to the Achilles tendon include tendinitis or tendon rupture. Torn calf muscles are most likely to occur during strenuous exercise. They commonly occur when you are exercising and rapidly change direction or acceleration. This injury commonly happens after explosive movements with increased loading of the muscle, such as sports that require bursts of speed (e.g., hurdling, jumping, basketball, soccer).  Contraction (sudden onset). Sudden bursts of speed from a completely stationary position are a common cause of a calf tear. Short track sprinters are very susceptible to torn calf muscles. Sudden changes in direction, such as those occurring when playing basketball or tennis, can also cause tears.  Prolonged degradation. Over-work and overuse are other common factors that can eventually lead to a tear. This is seen in runners and football players. Football players have both contraction and prolonged running. Both of these factors...

TL;DR in English: Understand what can get injured in your calf. Know what can cause a tear. Recognize the symptoms of a torn muscle. Rest your legs. Contact your physician. Ask your doctor about tests to examine your injury. Follow your doctor’s instructions.

It’s going to be hard to stay off the grid if you’re using a cell phone. Law enforcement can triangulate and track your cell signal.   It’s the built-in GPS in cell phones that makes you easy to track. Even if you don’t make a call, you can be tracked because cell phones and towers are constantly connecting with each other. You can also take the battery out of the phone. Or leave the phone somewhere if you want to throw people off. Instead of a cell phone, use pre-paid phones that you can buy cheaply at department stores or gas stations.   Give the person you want to talk to another pre-paid phone, and only talk using those phones. For now, you don’t even need an ID in most states to purchase a pre-paid phone. Use a pre-paid calling card for an extra layer of protection when using the pre-paid phone instead of dialing directly with it. If you have a credit card, you can be traced. It’s better to use credit card gift cards, and use those for purchases.   You can buy these cards, by big-name companies like Visa and American Express, in many department and even grocery stores. You just throw them away when you use up the balance. There’s no statement attached to these cards, and you don’t provide your personal details when you buy them or use them. Use cryptocurrency like bitcoin or a pre-paid card paid for in cash. Or just try to use cash more than you currently do now.   If you decide not to go that far and want to keep a bank account, do not use credit or debit cards, and do not do online banking. Be aware that banks are filled with surveillance cameras and transactions greater than $10,000 can be tracked by the government. So take out cash in small increments.

TL;DR in English: Get rid of your cell phone. Use pre-paid phones. Use gift cards for purchases. Cancel any bank accounts.

You will need some sort of heat-resistant container, such as a mason jar or an old candle holder, to pour your melted wax into. Make sure that the mouth of your container is wide enough for you to reach into and that the container can withstand high temperatures. You can use any candle wax for your candles, such as paraffin, soy, or even old, unscented candles. Cut or break your chosen wax into cubes. Make sure that you have enough to fill your container, plus some extra. Wax shrinks a little when it hardens, and you may find that you will have to add a little extra wax into the container during the cooling process. Fill your double boiler with water and place it on the stove, then fill the smaller chamber with wax. Turn on the stove and wait until the wax melts. It will look mostly clear.  If you do not have a double boiler, you can make your own by filling a large pot part-way with water and placing a smaller, heat-resistant container, such as a glass measuring cup, inside it. The smaller container should be at least as tall as the larger pot; it should not be submerged in the water. Place the candle wax into the smaller container, and set the large pot onto the stove. If you want to add some color to your candle, you can add in some crayons or wax dye. Wax dye usually comes in blocks, and you can find it online or in the candle-making section of an arts and crafts store. If you choose to add some color, be sure to stir your wax to blend it all in. Use about ½ teaspoon or 10 drops of oil per one pound of wax. You can use more essential oil if you'd like a more potent candle, or less essential oil if you'd prefer a less potent one. You can find citronella essential oil online or in the essential oil section of a health food store. Once you have added the oil, stir the wax to mix it all together.  Be sure to use essential oil, as a synthetic citronella oil (or citronella scent) will not be as effective at keeping the bugs away.  You can also add other candle-making scents to help compliment the citronella....

TL;DR in English: Find a clean, glass jar with a wide opening. Purchase some candle wax and cut it into small cubes. Heat the candle wax in a double boiler. Add citronella essential oil to your melted wax. Purchase a pre-waxed candle wick and cut it. Insert and attach the candle wick. Secure the candle wick. Pour the wax into the jars. Wait until your candle has cooled. Trim your wick.

Use ground fish food of the same type that you feed to your adult mollies.  Flake food should be used as a primary base.  Supplement the normal meals with a broad variety of denser meals.   Various worms are great for molly fish.  Grindal worms, black worms, and blood worms work well. Brine shrimp, live or frozen, are a preferred source of food. Molly fish even eat algae, which is their primary food in the wild. It will take around nearly two months to be able to tell males and females apart.  Once they’ve doubled in size, it’s probably safe to introduce them into the main tank with the rest of the fish.  Another good way to tell if they’re safe to interact with the other fish is if they are too big to fit into the other fishes mouths. Once you know the gender of the mollies, you'll need to ensure more breeding doesn't take place.  They will, in fact, breed between brothers and sisters.  Try to separate the male and female fish before they are eight weeks old, which is when they reach sexual maturity.

Quickly roll the dice. Conceal your Chance and Community Chest cards. Do not point out when you land on one of your opponent's properties.

This is likely to be the doctor's first suggestion if your pain isn't too severe.  Possible medications include ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB) or naproxen (Aleve). Though non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can be very helpful, they may not be right for you if you have high blood pressure, asthma, heart or kidney problems. Talk to your doctor about these medications before you start because they can interfere with other medications, including herbal remedies or dietary supplements. NSAIDS are especially known to cause gastric ulcers. Consult your doctor if over-the-counter medications do not help within 7 days. Depending upon your symptoms and medical history, your doctor may suggest:  Nerve pain medications. These medications are increasing in their popularity because the side effects are often less severe than those produced by narcotics. Common ones include gabapentin (Neurotin, Gralise, Horizant), pregabalin (Lyrica), duloxetine (Cymbalta), and tramadol (Ultram). Narcotics. These medications are likely to be prescribed when over-the-counter medications weren’t strong enough and nerve pain medications weren’t helpful. They may cause side effects including sedation, nausea, confusion, and constipation. These medications often have codeine or a mixture of oxycodone and acetaminophen (Percocet, Oxycontin). Muscle relaxants. Some people get painful muscle spasms and these medications can help this. A common one is diazepam. Some muscle relaxants may cause sedation and dizziness, so they are best used at night, just before bed. Read the packaging to determine whether you should avoid driving or operating machinery while taking them. Cortisone can suppress inflammation and swelling. If need be, your doctor may offer to give you an injection directly into the area that is causing the pain.  Your doctor may also use oral steroids when trying to decrease swelling.  Corticosteroids are often used to delay or possibly eliminate the need for surgery. The hope is that once the inflammation goes down, the body...

TL;DR in English: Deal with moderate pain with over-the-counter painkillers. Combat severe pain with prescription medications. Get cortisone injections for the pain. Discuss surgery with your doctor. Follow your doctor’s instructions when recovering from surgery.

Anyone who drew a mafia card should open their eyes at this time and look around to see who else has their eyes open. Give the players a set amount of time, such as 60 seconds or 5 minutes to decide who they want to “kill” or eliminate from the game.  When they reach a decision, have them tell you who the victim is by pointing to the person. Tell the players not to speak with other mafia members and only communicate silently using simple hand gestures, such as pointing and nodding or shaking their heads. If the mafia cannot come to a unanimous decision about who to eliminate, then they forfeit their turn and no one will be eliminated during that round. That person may then open their eyes and point at someone they think is a member of the mafia. Since there is only 1 detective in the game, they will have to rely on their instincts and any other hints they have gotten. Remember that there should only be 1 detective. If you notice someone else open their eyes, then you may need to check their cards to see who the real detective is. Note: In an alternative way to play, the Sheriff/Detective does not automatically eliminate the Mafia member they have identified. Rather, it is up to the sheriff to convince the townspeople the next day who the Mafia member is. Silently indicate if the person the detective identified is a member of the mafia, such as by nodding or shaking your head. Instruct the sheriff to go back to sleep after they make their selection. If the detective was right, the person will be eliminated. However, if the person was wrong, then they know who another one of the townspeople is and can choose someone else on their next turn. Once the doctor has pointed out someone to save, note who it is and then tell them to go back to sleep. The doctor will close their eyes at this time, and this is the end of the night cycle.

TL;DR in English: Instruct the mafia to open their eyes and choose a victim. Say out loud that it is time for the detective to wake up. Indicate if the detective was right or wrong and tell them to sleep again. Instruct the doctor to go back to sleep after they make their choice.

Most online random generators use a numbering system, so it will be helpful if your participants are each assigned a number. Simply write a number, starting with 1, next to each name on your list.  This tool is especially useful in classrooms, where teachers can assign their students numbers and then use this tool to call on them to answer questions or read aloud. It is also helpful in choosing winners for giveaways, as it removes any human bias or error in choosing a winner (in the case that the winner is to be chosen randomly). There are a variety of websites available for this.  Random.org Random Number Generator/Picker Random Choice Generator Research Randomizer Random Number Generator by Intemodino Group Random Number Generator by Rechner Online Custom Random Number Generator Most of these websites simply ask for your first and last numbers, and it will generate a number from within that range. Others might ask for more information, like the Research Randomizer, which is helpful in research studies. When you click it, the program will run an algorithm, which will randomly select a number for you within the range you entered. Document the number(s) generated as you need to. If you are using this tool to randomly assign numbers to participants, then have a document ready on which to add each number generated. Tables, spreadsheets, or lists are all good options for documentation, and you can record the numbers on your computer or by hand on printed paper.

Place the lime juice, garlic cloves, cilantro, habenero, and red onion in a blender. Add 3 large ice cubes. Blend the ingredients until they are completely smooth.  If you want the sauce to be as smooth as possible, you can strain it through a fine-mesh sieve.     If you struggle to get the ingredients to blend, add a little water to loosen them up.    Once the ingredients are pureed and strained, add the fish or clam juice. Use a spoon to stir the ingredients well. Pour it into a bowl and cover it with a lid or a piece of plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator so that the flavors can begin to meld while you prepare the rest of the dish.

If you find an opportunity to roll the dice while the other players are talking, do not call for their attention just so they can watch you roll. Let them stay distracted, and roll the dice. Before anyone can see the numbers, move your marker wherever you want it. Be sure you know how many spaces you move so when your opponent asks you what you rolled, you can give them an answer that matches the spot you moved to. If a player questions your move, just keep a straight face, and keep with the lie. Instead of showing off these cards when you draw them, act pleased with whatever card you get, and collect what amount is requested on the card, even if the card is telling you to pay. Then, quickly put the card back into the pile and move on. If the other players are not paying attention to their properties, or where you land, let it go unnoticed. The official rules explain that you will not have to pay if your opponent has still not noticed by the time two other people take a turn.  Try to get the next two players to take their turn by complaining about how the game is moving too slowly. This will hopefully speed up the game so you won't have to pay! Keep the owner of the property you landed on distracted. Tell that person a funny joke, or tell them a long story until the next two turns are taken.

TL;DR in English:


Keep your cat hydrated. Perform any food changes gradually. Avoid giving your cat problematic foods. Keep your cat’s stress levels low. Consider natural remedies.

Crafting items can level you overall, but it will also level your skills in that crafting specialty. This is useful for getting experience and the skills necessary to make quality items (that you can sell!). There are a number of different crafting skills to try, including weapon smithing, armor smithing, and alchemy. The harder the enemies you fight, the more XP you'll get when you kill them. As such, if you're getting into higher levels and you see those wolves aren't really leveling your skills anymore, you'll know it's time to move on to something a little bigger. Quest time! Some less well-balanced MMOs allow other people to steal your kills, but not so in ESO. Since you don't need to worry about stealing someone's kill, you should feel free to help out others in battles. If you help enough, you'll get a little XP. If you really work together, you can split the XP evenly! You can get buffs (or bonuses to your normal leveling rate) through a few different means. The easiest is to find a Mundus Stone (like the standing stones in Skyrim or birth-signs in Oblivion) which will increase the stat you wish to level. These are located across Tamriel and you will need to seek them out.

TL;DR in English: Try crafting. Fight harder enemies. Fight with others. Get buffs.

To be a global citizen, you must identify with a world community, but you should not lose your heritage or culture. Your heritage involves what cultures are present in your family history, what culture your family actively subscribes to, and what community you live in today. To learn about these, talk to your family, research your family history on the internet, and get to know more about your community by being active citizen.   You can research your background on websites like Ancestry.com. Most websites that offer these services do charge a fee. Be an active community member by exploring its museums, making use of the library, and talking to members of the community. Ask your family what they consider their heritage to be. It is possible to have many different heritages in one family. Think about where you come from. For example, if you are a North American, you have many cultures within being a North American. You may be a North American, from the United States, who lives in Texas, but has a Mexican heritage. Ask your friends, family members, or teachers, about their cultural backgrounds and what that means to them. This isn’t limited to people you know personally. You can also research the backgrounds of your favorite political or entertainment figures, whether they are current or historical. For example, you could ask “What would you consider your cultural background to be, and is it important in your daily life?” Before asking people about their background, make sure you tell them that you are trying to learn more about every culture. Be as polite and respectful as possible. Don’t push the subject if the other person doesn’t want to talk about it. Thinking that all people are equal goes beyond respect. To truly be a global citizen, you should believe that all people are equal regardless of their race or religion. A person who believes in equality believes that every person deserves healthcare, education, respect, and justice when wronged. Watch the news and read newspapers and history books to gain an...

Even if the mentorship exists largely over email or online, don't start bombarding your mentor with questions for advice at the last minute if it doesn't fit into the pre-outlined relationship you'd established. If the relationship reaches a natural conclusion, it's ok to end it. If you feel confident that you've improved enough in whatever skill you were hoping to learn from your mentor that you feel confident to go forth without weekly coffee meetings, say so. Think about what you might be able to offer your mentor in return. If you're getting loads of free advice about your short stories from a professor, ask if there's any research or tech help they might be able to use around the office. Setting up the new wireless router would be a great way to earn favor. As you improve in your career, remember who and what got you there. As opportunities arise, don't forget about your mentors that helped you along the way. Write to your mentor to keep them updated on your progress and remember to thank them for their specific contributions. This will give the mentor a feeling of being useful, needed, and also skillful at their craft.  Be specific. Just saying, "Thanks, you're being so helpful!" isn't as reassuring as, "I nailed that last sale thanks to your opening line tips. Thanks!" Gratitude could include a small gift as a "thank you" token. Small things like a book, a bottle of wine, or the occasional meal may be appropriate. Emotional involvement with your mentor will usually not be in the best interest of the mentoring process, especially if it's someone you work with. Casual interaction is acceptable and might even benefit your professional relationship, but your mentor is not meant to be your new best friend, so avoid digging into personal topics that are notably deep or vulnerable. For example, in addition to learning about their professional background, you might take time to ask them about their interests at the end of your meeting. Connecting on a common interest may even be one way to establish a greater...

TL;DR in English: Keep a schedule and stick to it. Make the relationship mutually beneficial. Show your appreciation. Focus on building a professional relationship.

If your friend is regularly insulting or belittling you, or starting arguments over all kinds of things, they are not being a good friend. If your friend is doing this, confront them, and ask them to stop. If your friend doesn't, that is not a good sign.  Types of insults can include teasing, sarcasm, and cynicism, comments that may sound like jokes, but are meant to hurt you. Some insults are more subtle, like backhanded compliments (complimenting you for negative things) or guilt-tripping (where your friend blames you for their distresses and problems). In many cases, your friend may try to pass these insults off as humor, and ridicule you for taking them personally. It is possible that your friend doesn't know they are insulting you. If you are concerned, confront them. If your friend didn't know, they may apologize right away. If your friend doesn't like you, they probably aren't making much of an effort to stay in touch. This means not just talking, but emails, texting, or any other form of communication. If you and your friend aren't talking very much, it is hard to say that you are still really friends.  This reduced communication can refer to frequency or length. You may not talk as often as you used to. Or, if you do talk, your conversations are now very short, and you find that you don't have much to talk about. You can also see this if you are the one making an effort at communication. Friendship takes effort. If you are the only one trying to stay in touch, then your friend is probably not interested. Along with not talking much, chances are your friend won't have been keeping you up to date with changes in their life. Friendship takes effort, and you shouldn't learn new things about your friend only through other people or social media. If you try to make plans, and your friend says they are too busy but is later out with other friends during that time, that would be a sign of rejection.  People change, have new interests, and new friends. If your friend appears to be doing other things with new...

TL;DR in English: See if your friend is acting negatively towards you. Look out for how often you are communicating. Ask yourself how you learn about new things in your friend's life. See if your friend ignores you for time with others. Think about how it feels being around your friend.

Intestinal problems and diarrhea can dehydrate your cat very quickly. Make sure that you keep a water bowl available and accessible for your cat. Many cats actually prefer to drink moving water, so a fountain style bowl is a great option. You can tell if your cat is dehydrated by lightly pinching the folded skin behind their neck. In a dehydrated cat, the skin takes a while to return to its flat position or remains bunched up.  You can also give your cat a 50-50 water and Pedialyte solution in their bowl. Talk to your vet first, though, to make sure that the combination won't mess up your cat's electrolytes. Be aware that dehydration can hit senior cats particularly hard. Don’t be surprised if your vet suggests an IV if your older cat gets dehydrated. Your vet might suggest some dietary changes for your cat, or you may take the initiative on your own. You can put your cat on a bland ground beef and rice diet by gradually switching out their meals over time. Quick dietary changes can make intestinal problems worse, while also making your cat more stressed.  You should not keep your cat on a home cooked long-term bland diet, as it is not nutritionally complete. Talk to your vet about recommendations for how long you should keep your cat on a specialized meal program. It is possible that your vet will ask you to withhold food from your cat for up to one day. You can give your cat water during this period, but the temporary food stoppage is intended to allow your cat’s digestive system to “reset.”  Your vet may also recommend a modified diet if they think that a food intolerance is causing your cat’s bloody stools. Some foods naturally irritate a cat’s digestive system. Try not to give your cat dairy products, no matter how much they seem to like them. Milk, yogurt, or cheese can result in severe gas or other intestinal problems. If these problems are severe enough, then your cat can create bloody stools. Colitis occurs when your cat’s intestines are irritated and inflamed. If your cat is stressed, they are more...

TL;DR in English:


Give your cat vitamin C. Get your cat vaccinated. Keep your cat indoors.

Watch your yard during rainfall. Note exactly where water tends to pool and sit. Also take into consideration how light or heavy the rainfall is, which may affect how large the affected area is. Plant stakes or flags in the center of the area and/or its borders while it's still wet if you think you will lose sight of it once it dries.  For example, say you have a spot roughly ten square meters that has standing water after a day of average rainfall. Then say that, after a heavy rainfall lasting three days or more, the area expands to twenty square meters. In this instance, the problem area is probably still the original ten square meters, since the surrounding area usually doesn’t experience standing water. First, see if additional water is being concentrated on this spot by a nearby structure, like the roof of your house or shed. Next, check if the water is runoff from an impervious surface, like a driveway or patio, that’s close at hand. Finally, check the lawn’s surface to see if the affected area is noticeably lower than the surrounding area. Water goes wherever gravity takes it, so always work your way up from the affected area to find out how water is getting there. Excessive water draining and pooling into a depression in the ground is certainly a problem, but keep in mind that it may not be the only one. Expect the soil itself to possibly prevent water from being absorbed. This may be caused by:  Compaction from weight placed on it, such as parking vehicles on the same patch of earth repeatedly. Thick root structures from vegetation that block the water’s absorption through the topsoil. Soil that is composed mostly of clay, rather than sand and/or organic matter. Take a 3-foot (0.9 m) wooden stake and plant it a third of the way into the ground alongside your house. Do the same with a second stake 100 feet (30.5 m) away from the house, with the affected area in between. Then:  Tie a string around the first stake where it meets the ground. Then tie the other end to the second stake, using a level to...

TL;DR in English: Identify where water collects. Check where the water is coming from. Check the soil. Measure the grade of your lawn.

Proper nutrition speeds up hair growth and prevents it from looking patchy. Instead of eating processed food, consume fish, eggs, lean meat, and other sources of protein. Combine that with a helping of fruits and vegetables at every meal.  Sources of protein, including meat and eggs, have zinc, oil, and fat hair needs to grow. The rest of your body needs these things too, so if you aren’t getting enough, your hair won’t have as much opportunity to grow. Other foods, such as fruit and vegetables, have vitamins responsible for hair growth. Vitamin B, for instance, helps a lot. Vitamins A, C, and E are also essential. Your body, including your growing hair, needs water to function. Drink about 2 L (68  fl oz) of water per day. Even a mild case of dehydration stops hair growth and even leads to hair loss. Proper hydration can speed up hair growth.  Replace your normal drinks with fresh water. Try carrying around a water bottle to ensure you get enough to drink. Sugary fruit juices and sodas aren’t great for your health, so they could potentially slow down hair growth. Exercising comes with many benefits, but the main one is circulation. Aim on working out 3 or 4 times a week, focusing on aerobic exercises that get your blood pumping. Fresh blood brings more nutrients to your hair follicles, increasing their growth rate. You could take a walk, hop on a treadmill, play a sport, or do any number of other exercises.  Even mild to moderate exercise, such as a brisk 30-minute walk, helps with hair growth. Exercise is also a good way to relieve stress. However, don’t overdo it. If you wear yourself out, you may end up with more stress and even injuries your body needs to heal. Stress is one of the most common reasons why people notice their hair isn’t growing as well as it ought to be. Stress slows down new growth, so controlling it is an essential part of getting your beard or mustache in quicker. Set aside time to do activities you enjoy, whether that is going out with friends, playing games, or listening to music....

TL;DR in English: Eat a healthy diet in order to get the nutrients your hair needs. Drink plenty of water to stay hydrated throughout the day. Exercise regularly to stimulate blood flow to your hair follicles. Find ways to relax and reduce stress. Stimulate your hair follicles with regular facial massages. Get between 7 to 9 hours of sleep a night. Quit smoking to improve your overall health.

When trimming thin branches, you can easily use a pair of garden shears. Do this if the branch is about 1⁄2–2 in (1.3–5.1 cm). To cut, simply place your shears where the branch meets the trunk and make your snip.  Garden shears are small, handheld tools used to cut off branches or stems. Before you start, disinfect your tools with a diluted bleach solution or rubbing alcohol. This will help prevent the spread of disease. If your tree has branches between 2–4 in (5.1–10.2 cm) thick, a hand saw works well to chop off your branches. Position the saw where the branch meets the tree trunk, and quickly move it back and forth until the branch falls off.  If you use gardening shears on thick branches, you can injure yourself or the tree. It will also damage your gardening shears. When using the saw, keep the blade away from your body to prevent injuries. Be careful with falling branches. Before you make cuts, plan how they will fall, making sure they won't damage structures, vehicles, or outdoor items. Additionally, people should be at a safe distance to avoid injury. If you are removing large branches from mature trees, the safest option is to use a chainsaw. Hold the chainsaw firmly, and bring it straight down through the branch to make your cut. Be sure the ground is clear beneath the branch so it does not damage anything or anyone as it falls.  Wear safety goggles, hold the chainsaw away from your body, and handle the chainsaw with care to keep yourself protected. Ask a spotter to help you cut the branch. Before you start cutting, plan an escape route in case things go wrong. You need to be able to escape the falling branch. If you are not experienced with a chainsaw, hiring a professional may be a safer option. If you are trimming branches from mature trees, it may be difficult to reach the branches high above. Set up a full-size ladder next to the tree, and climb up with your tool to get rid of your branches. If your tree is extremely tall, rent a forklift from a home supply store, follow all operational...

TL;DR in English: Use garden shears to cut branches up to 2 in (5.1 cm) thick. Remove branches with a hand saw if they are 2–6 in (5.1–15.2 cm) thick. Use a chainsaw to remove large, thick branches over 6 in (15 cm) thick. Climb a ladder or forklift to help you reach branches on tall trees. Hire a professional if you have a very large walnut tree.

Position the oven rack 6 inches (15 cm) below the broiler heating element, then turn on the broiler. The oven temperature should be somewhere between 400 °F (204 °C) and 450 °F (232 °C). Although you technically can use the baking element of your oven to roast hatch chiles, you should use the broiler element for the best results. Place a layer of aluminum foil over a roasting pan or sheet pan, then arrange your peppers in a single layer on the pan. Use a fork to poke 2-3 holes in several places on each pepper to prevent them from exploding as they’re roasting.  You can arrange your peppers to be as close together as you like. However, make sure that all of the peppers are equally exposed to the heat coming off the broiler. Using aluminum foil on your pan is technically optional, though it will do a lot to keep your pan clean during this process. Place the pan on your top oven rack, taking care not to touch the rack itself. Then, allow the chiles to roast for around 5 minutes or until the skin is blackened and blistered. Keep an eye on the chiles as they’re roasting. You don’t want them to become completely blackened, but instead just mostly charred. Once the chiles have roasted for about 5 minutes or have been sufficiently charred, use tongs to turn the chiles. Allow the chiles to continue roasting for an additional 5 minutes or until they’re blackened and blistered. The entire process of charring both sides of the chiles should take 10-15 minutes.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven by turning the broiler to the high setting. Prick your hatch chiles and place them on an aluminum-lined pan. Roast the chiles for about 5 minutes. Flip the chiles over and roast them for 5 more minutes.

Unlike humans, cats can make their own vitamin C. However, a Vitamin C supplement can help your cat recover from some medical conditions, such as a cold.  Talk to your vet about giving your pet this supplement. But be sure that they have no history of urinary oxalate stone formation (crystals). Vitamin C may not be right for all pets.  Do not administer vitamin C without talking to your vet first, especially if your cat has underlying health conditions or is on any medications. Keep up to date with your cat's vaccinations. Vaccinations helps prevent common diseases and infections that can lead to colds and cold-like symptoms. Check with your vet once a year to see if your cat is due for any vaccines. Cats usually get colds from contact with other cats. The best way to prevent this is to minimize their contact with outside animals. Keep your cat indoors and away from strange, possibly unvaccinated, cats. If they simply must be outside from time to time, try to keep a close eye on them.

Writing, time management, effective communication, problem-solving, decision-making, and critical thinking skills are necessary for paralegals. These skills will serve you well in the profession, so it would be useful to develop them to the best of your ability in order to be the most desirable job candidate you can be.  Some colleges, universities, or other schools where paralegal programs are offered may also offer courses that help with the development of these kinds of professional skills. Computer skills play an important role as well, from familiarity with office suites to web browsers and email applications. Many employers prefer candidates who have had at least one year of experience working in a legal environment. Find a job or internship at a law office doing administrative tasks like filing or answering telephones, or working as an assistant to other paralegals. These kinds of jobs will not only look good on your résumé, they will also familiarize you with the legal environment and allow you to gain hands-on training from professionals in the field. Though paralegal certification is not required by all employers, it will give you an advantage over competing candidates. If you have already graduated with a bachelor's or associate degree in an unrelated field, it might be a good idea for you to become a certified paralegal. The National Association of Legal Assistants (NALA) offers certification.  Many other certification programs are available that are taught by practicing attorneys and give you the hands-on skills that you can apply directly to your job working as a paralegal. These programs generally last between 6-12 months. Consider taking a certified paralegal examination. This may or may not be part of your certification program. The NALA is the main organization that offers these exams. Your resume should include a sentence-long career objective passage that explains the type of job you are seeking, including your desired specialization, unless you are interested in general practice. Be sure...

Some ingredients taste better than others when they're reheated after being frozen. Most lasagna recipes that call for fresh ingredients will be just fine after freezing, whether you freeze them unbaked or baked. However, if the recipe uses items that have already been frozen and thawed once, it's best not to freeze and thaw them twice. This increases the chance that the food could be contaminated by bacteria.  For example, don't plan on freezing lasagna made with sausage or ground beef that was previously frozen. Instead, use fresh meat or leave it out completely.  Food that is frozen and thawed more than once also suffers when it comes to flavor and texture. Choosing a recipe that calls for fresh ingredients will result in the best-tasting lasagna. If your favorite lasagna recipe calls for a frozen ingredient, the final dish usually won't be too affected by substituting the fresh version instead. For example, instead of using frozen mushrooms, just use fresh. In most cases you will have needed to thaw them anyway. Look for a "freezer-proof" label or be certain that the dish can be frozen as well as used for baking. Most glass or ceramic casserole dishes are fine for this purpose.  Avoid using an aluminum pan for long-term storage of lasagna. The food might end up picking up a tinny taste. If you don't have a dish that can be used to both bake and freeze lasagna, you can bake it one dish and freeze it in a freezer-safe food storage container. Lasagna that has been baked before freezing will still taste great after it has been reheated. Lasagna that has been assembled and frozen before baking is delicious, too. Use whichever method is most convenient for you, since the final texture and taste of the dish won't be too affected either way.  You might decide to freeze pre-baked lasagna if you have leftovers after making a big batch. If you'd rather freeze it before baking, consider making two lasagnas next time you're having lasagna for dinner. You can bake one and freeze the other to eat later. If you want to...

TL;DR in English: Make a freezer-friendly lasagna recipe. Assemble the lasagna in a dish that can be frozen. Decide whether to bake it first. Bring the lasagna to room temperature. Cover the lasagna with freezer-safe plastic wrap. Freeze the lasagna.

If you’re making a mask for kids, a soft fabric like cotton is the best material to use. The mask will be breathable, and it will be more comfortable for little kids. It’s also a good choice if you’re making a mask for an adult but you’ll be somewhere hot, like a party. You can also use felt, although this could be hotter and more uncomfortable on the face. If you’re making a fabric mask, you can decorate it with fabric accents once you have the basic mask cut out. You can also add fabric to masks made from other materials to give the mask more depth and detail. Once your mask is complete, you’ll need to find a way to attach it to your face. Poke two holes in the side of the mask, and put one end of an elastic band through each hole and tie them off. Make sure you measure the elastic before you tie it off. You don’t want the mask to feel too tight or to keep falling off! Measure it by wrapping a piece around your head and making a mark where the elastic ends.

TL;DR in English: Use fabric for a mask meant for use by little kids. Add extra fabric. Use elastic to wear it.

A dry run is where you run your smoker without any food. This will help you gauge how long it takes your smoker to reach a certain temperature. Write down how long it takes for your smoker to reach the right temperature. Keep this for future reference.  Use a lid thermometer to keep track of the temperatures inside the smoker. Some smokers have built-in thermometers, but these can be off by 50 °F (10 °C). Some parts of a smoker are much hotter than others. If you place your thermometer near these areas, you won't get an accurate temperature reading. Some thermometers, especially electric ones, are just inaccurate or go bad. You should replace it when this happens. If the temperature inside the smoker does not match the temperature on the damper, you may have a leak. This is especially common among cheap, barrel-shaped smokers. The leaks typically occur around seams. Once you find them, seal them with gaskets or food-safe silicone. If sealing leaks did not help, try using the exhaust damper instead of the bottom ones to adjust the temperature. If the inside of the bowl or ash catcher are dirty, you will have poor airflow, which can affect the temperature. The bottom damper should also be clean to reduce clogs. If it is clogged, then you won't have enough oxygen reaching your fire, resulting in low temperatures. If your smoker tends to run too hot, leave it smoky and greasy inside. This will make it less reflective and allow it to radiate heat outside the smoker. If it is a hot or windy day, close the intake damper to reduce the temperature inside the smoker. If it is a cold day, open the damper in increase the temperature. If that doesn't help, try the following:  Hot day: move the smoker out of sunlight or shield it with a canopy or patio umbrella. Cold day: have extra fuel handy. Windy day: work downwind or move the smoker next to a wall to shield it. If your intake damper is open and the temperature has not changed for several hours, give the charcoal or firewood a stir. If that doesn't help, add some more...

TL;DR in English: Perform a dry run the first time you use the smoker. Make sure that the thermometer is away from the edge of the grate. Search for leaks if the temperature is inaccurate. Ensure that the smoker is clean. Adjust the intake damper on hot, cold, or windy days. Check the fuel if the temperature is not rising fast enough.

Plastic canvas is a grid structure formed by a series of holes and bars (gridlines). It comes in a variety of colors (clear or colored), shapes (rectangular or pre-cut shapes), and thicknesses (soft, regular, or stiff). It also comes in 4 different hole counts.  5-count plastic canvas has 25 squares per square inch. This canvas is only available in a clear, rectangular sheet of regular thickness. 7-count plastic canvas has 49 squares per square inch. It is the most common plastic canvas. It is the only count available in a variety of colors, shapes, and all three thicknesses. 10-count plastic canvas has 100 squares per square inch. This count is available in a small selection of colors. It is only available in rectangular sheet of regular thickness. 14-count plastic canvas has 144 squares per square inch. This count is available in clear, black, and white. It is only sold in rectangular sheets of regular thickness. The tapestry needle is most commonly used for plastic canvas work. Tapestry needles are characterized by their large eye and blunt, round tip. The large eye allows your to thread multiple strands of yarn or floss. You will need a different size needle for each plastic canvas count.  7-count requires a size 16 tapestry needle. 10-count requires a size 18 tapestry needle. 14 count requires a size 20 tapestry needle. In addition to using a different size needle for each count, you will also need to use a different size yarn or thread. While the 5-count requires multiples strands, the others require only one strand.  5-count plastic canvas requires 2 strands of 4-ply worsted wool. 7-count requires 1 strand of 4-ply worsted wool. 10-count requires a 3-ply sport wool, #3 Perle Cotton, or a 12-plies floss. 14-count requires 6-plies floss or a #5 Perle Cotton.

TL;DR in English: Select your plastic canvas. Pick out a needle. Select yarn or floss.

As of September 2013, bimatoprost remained the only FDA approved drug prescribed to treat an abnormal lack of eyelashes, especially if caused by hypotrichosis.  The medication is applied along the upper lash line, eventually stimulating longer, thicker, and darker lashes, but you should not apply it to the lower lashes. Usually, doctors instruct you to take the medication daily for two months or more. Possible side effects include itchy or red eyes, dry eyes, darkened eyelids, darkened brown pigmentation in the iris, hair growth around the eyes if the medication continually runs off the eyelids and onto the surrounding skin. There are a variety of health conditions and disorders that could be responsible for your loss of eyelashes. If you have one of these conditions, the only real way to grow eyelashes long-term is to treat the underlying condition.  Eye infections, hypothyroidism, autoimmune diseases, eyelid inflammation, and trichotillomania are all conditions that could be to blame. Doctors may recommend a special cleaning routine for eyelid inflammation and infections. An infection may also warrant the use of antibiotics. Hypothyroidism needs to be treated with thyroid replacement drugs. Trichotillomania is a psychological condition that causes you to pull your eyelashes out. You might be treated with cognitive-behavioral therapy and certain mood-stabilizing drugs. Autoimmune diseases are often treated with various immuno-suppressants.

Visit a craft store, toy store, or another establishment that sells costuming supplies. Purchase a foam hat. Pick a style that seems appropriate for your scarecrow in terms of shape, but don’t worry about other features like color, since it will be covered with burlap in the end. Unroll a large swath of burlap and center your hat on top of it, right way up. Trace a circle (or whichever shape matches that of your particular hat) around the hat. Make it large enough for the circle to cover all of the hat’s exterior, with at least a few extra inches between the brim and your circle. Use fabric scissors to cut the circle free from the roll of burlap. If you're worried about making your circle too small, err on the side of caution and go for one that's too big. The excess can be repurposed later on if you need to trim it off. First, drape your burlap circle over your hat and center it. Make sure it’s long enough to hang over the brim by a few inches on all sides. Then lift the burlap’s loose end and apply glue to a swath of the hat’s brim. Press the burlap down into the glue to stick the two together. Then:  Use pins if needed to secure glued areas in place so the burlap doesn’t move around as you work. Continue applying beads of glue along the brim and pressing the burlap into it until you have completed the whole brim. Secure the burlap with pins if desired to keep it in place while the glue dries. Cut out a new length of burlap. Make it long enough to wrap around the hat's crown and then overlap itself by an inch or so. Glue the back of one end to the burlap circle, wrap the length around the crown, and glue the back of the free end to where it overlaps the first end. Cut out some small squares of burlap from your roll. Or, if you needed to trim any excess material from your circle, cut some squares from that. Glue these “patches” where desired to accentuate the scarecrow’s patched-together look.

TL;DR in English: Select a foam hat. Trace an outline on your burlap. Cut out the outline. Glue the burlap to your hat. Make a band for your hat. Add some patches.

Skin cells are made up of mostly water, so if you’re dehydrated, your skin will likely look dry, dull, or even slightly grey. For an easy way to increase your skin’s brightness, aim to drink 6-8 cups of water per day.  Any source of H2O will help nourish your skin, not just plain water. If you struggle to drink the recommended 8 cups a day, try to incorporate more fruits, veggies, or teas (all of which contain water) into your diet.  Try to avoid smoking or excessive alcohol consumption, as both can further dehydrate your skin. Your body can convert beta-carotene (a plant pigment that gives certain veggies their color) into vitamin A, which regulates cell production and encourages the production of fresh, new skin cells. It is also an antioxidant and can help repair the damage the sun does to your skin. Beta-carotene can be found naturally in certain fruits and vegetables, including carrots, papayas, mangoes, and dark leafy greens. Aim for three 1-cup servings every day. Not a fan of these foods? You can also take a beta-carotene supplement. Just be sure to check with your doctor about proper dosage and use. Free radicals—found in UVA and UVB rays from the sun as well as infrared radiation, pollutants, and other stressors— can damage your skin cells, dulling your natural brightness. Naturally occurring antioxidants can help combat this damage and reduce inflammation in your skin. You can find skin-brightening antioxidants in green tea, tomatoes, almonds, berries, dark chocolate, pomegranates, and green vegetables such as kale or broccoli. Zinc contributes to cell production and natural turnover of cells, helping to reduce dullness caused by dead skin. Iron will help to increase your skin’s glow by fortifying your red blood cells.

Dip the cloth or soft side of the sponge into the washing mixture. Gently wipe to remove light marks or stains. Continue to wet the cloth or sponge as you go.  Replace the water when it gets too dirty. Kånken backpacks have a large opening for the main compartment. You won’t need to turn them inside out to clean the inside. A toothbrush can also be quite handy to scrub tougher stains or hard to reach spots such as inside corners and small pockets. Once cleaned to your satisfaction, hang the backpack in an area out of direct sunlight and allow it to air dry. Colours may fade if the bag is left in strong sunlight. Check that the bag is completely dry before use. Items such as paper and electronics can be damaged by moisture.

TL;DR in English: Wipe the bag with a cloth or sponge. Scrub tough stains with a soft brush. Hang the backpack to dry.

Before applying makeup, gently wash your face with warm water. Gently rub in a fragrance-free water-based moisturizer. Apply a sunscreen or a moisturizer-sunscreen combination for protection against the sun. Sunscreen does not cause acne unless it contains harmful chemicals such as PABA and benzophenone. You can use brushes or sponges to apply your makeup if you would like to avoid touching your skin. Acne can be caused by bacteria on the hands, but sponges or brushes can also hold bacteria, so be sure wash them at least twice a week.

TL;DR in English: Clean and moisturize your skin. Prepare your brush or sponge. Finished.

This method is ideal for odd shapes, like logos, animals, or even silhouettes. Find a simple picture with a clear, easy-to-follow outline, and choose a sturdy photo paper that’s labeled as at least 8.5 mil thick or 75 pounds (34 kg). Once the image prints, let the ink dry for 2-3 minutes before handling the paper. If you don’t have photo paper, you can print out the image on regular paper, and then trace the outline of the shape onto a piece of cardboard.

TL;DR in English:


Address nutritional deficiencies. Cleanse the liver. Opt for prescription treatment. Note that there is no cure.

If you experience any symptoms of anemia, such as persistent fatigue, weakness, pale skin, or shortness of breath, make an appointment with your doctor. It’s important to get a definite diagnosis so that you can treat your condition appropriately. Different types of anemia require different treatments. It’s also important to rule out other conditions that might be causing your symptoms (such as a thyroid disorder or heart disease).  Your doctor will perform a physical exam, which means they will listen to your heart and breathing. They will also check for physical signs of anemia and ask you about other symptoms. Your doctor will also likely draw a small amount of blood to check your blood count. This is a test that counts the number of RBCs and other cells in the blood and check the quality of your RBCs. If the underlying cause of the anemia is not clear, other tests may be ordered.  If you try to donate blood and can’t because you have a low hemoglobin count, see your doctor and ask to be tested for anemia. Before using any supplements to treat your anemia, talk to your doctor about which supplements are likely to help you and in what doses. You should also let them know about any other medications or supplements you are currently taking to avoid potentially dangerous interactions. If you have deficiency anemia, you may need to take your supplements in forms you can’t get over-the-counter. For example, treatment for vitamin B-12 deficiency anemia sometimes involves regular injections of vitamin B-12.

TL;DR in English: See your doctor for a diagnosis if you suspect anemia. Consult with your doctor before trying supplements.

Hard copy dictionaries (rather than online ones) often have standard letters for jobs, for RSVPs, for filing complaints, for various official writings. Dictionaries often have more than just words and their definitions. Some of them have lots of information about the world, usually in the form of various lists. These include geographical information (like maps, countries, cities, capitals, etc.)  Hard copy dictionaries often have different weights and volumes, as well as conversion tables. This can come in handy if you need to convert pounds to kilograms or vice versa. You can also usually find statistics on population in various cities and countries, as well as lists of the flags of different countries, states, provinces, and regions around the world. Many dictionaries also have lists of famous or historical people, which you can peruse. Simply browse a dictionary to enlighten yourself about new words now and then. Open the dictionary up to any page and scan the page for words that are unfamiliar or seem interesting. Pinpoint them, read the definition and try to add the new word to your thinking or talking during the next few days until it becomes a remembered part of your natural vocabulary.  Play the dictionary game with friends. This consists of getting some friends together and a dictionary. The first player looks up a challenging word and uses it in a sentence. The other players have to guess if the use of the word is accurate or an outright fabrication. If a player guesses correctly, it's their turn next. Another dictionary game: Each player chooses a word which should be familiar to the other players, then reads out the dictionary definition. The other players compete to guess the word as quickly as possible - perhaps even shouting out while the definition is still being read. Play Balderdash with a foreign language dictionary. Pick a random obscure word and then have people make up definitions along with having the real definition, having people guess which definition is the "real" one.

TL;DR in English: Use the dictionary to find standard letter forms. Research various facts. Have fun!

A female dog usually becomes fertile for the first time after she is six months old. However, she should not be bred during her first estrus. Since heat usually occurs every six months approximately, this means that she should be at least a year old when she is bred. The age of sexual maturity will vary a lot depending on the specific dog and what breed she is. In general, smaller dogs tend to reach sexual maturity sooner than larger dogs. Signs that your dog may have infertility issues include problems with an irregular cycle. Track your dog's reproductive cycle to help identify a potential issue. A dog's reproductive cycle includes four phases:  Proestrus: In this phase the female dog attracts males, has bloody vaginal discharge, and her vulva is swollen. She will not allow breeding during this phase, which lasts approximately nine days. Estrus: During this period the dog is fertile and she will allow mating. It usually lasts for about nine days but ovulation usually occurs in the first 48 hours. Diestrus: Diestrus is the sixty to ninety day period when the dog is no longer fertile but discharge may continue. This occurs whether or not the dog becomes pregnant. Anestrus: Anestrus usually lasts three to four months and no sexual activity takes place during this phase. If your dog is having a hard time mating, it could lead to an inability to reproduce. This is a physical issue that could be caused by injury and by a misalignment between the female and male dog.  In order to assess your dog's physical ability to copulate, you may need to talk it to a veterinarian or an expert in dog breeding. They should be able to assess your dog's physical reproductive issues. If the dogs you are trying to mate are having a hard time completing the act, then you may need to step in and help. In extreme cases, you may even need to have your female dog artificially inseminated if she and the male dog cannot physically fit together. There may just be issues with your dog's comfort or interest in sexual intercourse due to where...

TL;DR in English: Make sure the dog is old enough to reproduce. Track your dog's reproductive cycle to spot problems. Make sure your dog can physically copulate. Assess behavioral factors. Have your dog looked at by a veterinarian.

Paragraphs are harder to skim through than bullet points, so recruiters may not be seeing all the information you want them to see. If any of your job descriptions are written in paragraph form, break them up into several bullet points. Keep each bullet point between 1-2 sentences long. To shorten your resume, make your writing more concise. Delete any unnecessary information, like dates and descriptions for jobs you had over 15 years ago. If you’re using a large font, make it smaller (but not so small that it’s hard to read). Recruiters like to skim resumes, and they’ll be more likely to look yours over if it’s only 1 page. Put it in bold font so it’s easy for recruiters to find. Make sure it includes your phone number, email address, city and zip code (you can leave out your full mailing address). Avoid colorful, crazy fonts that will distract from the content of your resume. Try to use the same font throughout your whole resume so it looks neat and polished.  Make your headlines bold and slightly larger to help them stand out. Some simple fonts you can use for your resume are: Times New Roman, Georgie, Garamond, Arial, Century Gothic, Tahoma, and Bell MT. Search online for "free resume builder." There are also resume builders you can pay for to get access to more premium features. Once you find a software or app you like, input the information from your resume into the builder so it can help you organize it all in an effective way. Then, save the resume you made and use it to apply for jobs. Some resume builders you can try are https://www.resume-now.com, https://www.myperfectresume.com, or https://www.canva.com/create/resumes.

TL;DR in English: Use bullet points instead of paragraphs for your job descriptions. Shorten your resume if it’s longer than 1 page. Move your contact information to the top. Use a simple, black, size-12 font. Use a resume-building software or app.

Since many of the medical problems associated with MTHFR mutation are connected to folate deficiencies, you might be able to help counteract those problems by consuming more external folate.  Include more folate-rich foods in your regular diet. Good options include spinach, asparagus, chickpeas, beans, and broccoli. Avoid taking folic acid and consider taking a methyl folate supplement on a daily basis, as well. The supplement should provide your body with converted folate it can use to maintain bodily functions. MTHFR deficiencies can make it difficult for your body to naturally eliminate toxins, so you might be able to help your body by undergoing the occasional liver cleanse.  Popular liver cleanses include grapefruit and Epsom salt, cranberry juice, and apple cider vinegar. You can also help cleanse your liver by avoiding foods that hurt the liver, consuming more foods that help the liver, and maintaining a healthier lifestyle. If there are other risk factors that may put your overall health at risk, your doctor may prescribe a stronger supplemental treatment to help provide your body with what it lacks. One of the most common prescription treatments is 5-MTHF supplementation. This is the end product of healthy, normal MTHFR catalytic reactions. Since your body isn't producing enough 5-MTHF, artificial supplementation may help correct some of the problems caused by the deficiency. MTHFR abnormalities are a genetic problem, so no medication, surgery, or other treatment can correct it. Once you know about the problem, though, you can take measures to combat it and reduce your risk of experiencing further MTHFR complications.

TL;DR in English:

Like cats, rabbits lick themselves to self-clean.  However, unlike cats, rabbits cannot vomit so any hairballs your rabbit ingests will stay in its stomach, blocking the stomach exit and causing serious health issues.  Brushing your rabbit regularly can help cut down on the amount of loose fur it ingests, in addition to keeping its fur mat-free.  Short-haired rabbits need to be brushed every three days to prevent hairballs and tangles in their fur.  Long-haired rabbits should be brushed every day.  Use a bristle-brush instead of a metal-toothed brush, as this will be gentler on your rabbit’s skin.  Look for a brush made specifically for rabbits. You can follow up brushing with a rubber grooming tool or another hand-held finishing tool to help get any additional loose hairs.  A damp washcloth will also work to remove loose hairs.  How much your rabbit needs brushed depends on their breed.  As a general rule, the longer the hair, the more often you need to brush. Rabbits shed approximately every three months.  During this time, you’ll generally need to brush your short-haired rabbit once a day and your long-haired rabbit multiple times a day. The rate at which rabbits shed varies.  Some rabbits will shed their coats over several weeks, while others shed it all within a few days.  Pay attention to the shedding patterns of your rabbit and adjust how often you brush them accordingly.  For example, rabbits that shed over the course of several weeks may need brushed only once a day, but rabbits that shed over a few days need to be brushed multiple times per day. Short-haired rabbits don’t usually need their fur trimmed, but long-haired rabbits often do.  If you have a long-haired rabbit, it is a good idea to keep its hair trimmed to one inch in length.  This will help prevent mats and cut down on shedding.  Don’t trim the hair around your rabbit’s feet.  Doing so can cause your rabbit to get sores from a lack of padding. It is suggested that you keep the fur on your long-haired rabbit’s belly and between its legs...

TL;DR in English: Brush your rabbit every two to three days. Brush your rabbit daily when it is shedding. Trim your rabbit’s fur as needed.

You may end up having to confront the annoying person and try to work together on ways to address any issues you are having with them. Before you confront the person, you should sit down and try to identify what annoys you so much about the person. You may ask yourself, “What does the person do that annoys me so much?” or “What is it about this person that I find irritating?” You may then able to address the issue once you are aware of what it is.  For example, you may be annoyed by the fact that your co-worker always comes into meetings late and appears disorganized in front of clients. You may then realize that you are annoyed by her behavior overall and how unprofessional she is acting. Another example might be that you are annoyed with how your family member always talks about themselves and ignores the problems of others. You may realize that you are annoyed by him because he is not considerate of others. If you would like to confront the person, you should do so one on one in a private, quiet area. You may ask the person if you can speak to them privately after work or call them and ask to talk to them in private. Try to speak to them in person, if possible.  Always use “I” statements and avoid placing blame or accusing the person. For example, "I feel" or "I think." You may start the discussion by saying, “Listen, I need to let you know that I am feeling annoyed at your behavior.” You may then expand your thoughts and be honest about why you are annoyed by the person. You may say, “I feel as though your tardiness to meetings and your disorganization is reflecting badly on our team and the company as a whole. I am concerned that you are coming across as unprofessional to clients.” Or, you may say to your family member, "I feel as though you are not being considerate of others and are only focusing on your needs. I am concerned that you are not being as aware of others and their issues as you could be." You should try to work with the person to come up with possible solutions or adjustments they can make...

TL;DR in English: Identify what the issue is. Discuss the issue with the person. Come up with solutions together. Get support.

There are 2 basic categories of smartphone otoscope attachments—those that clip over your phone's camera, and those that attach by cable to your phone's USB or Lightning port. Shop online for a model that is compatible with your phone.  A traditional otoscope is basically a magnifying glass with a handle, a light, and a cone-shaped tip that is inserted into the outer section of the inner ear. Smartphone otoscopes either magnify the image for your phone's camera, or act as their own magnifying camera, and record video. Scopes range in price from less than $50 USD to over $300 USD. You can check product reviews for guidance, and you may also want to ask your doctor if they have any experience with or recommendations for such devices. If you're a MacGyver-type, you can even try making one yourself! Most if not all models of scope attachments pair with a brand-specific app. Download this app for guidance on installing the scope, using it, and saving or sending the images/video.  The apps are typically free, but of course you've already had to pay for the scope! Most otoscope attachments record video as opposed to taking pictures, since this makes it easier for the average novice to get some decent inner ear views. No matter if you're using a traditional otoscope or a smartphone attachment, never stick the speculum (the pointed part) more than 1–2 cm (0.39–0.79 in) into your ear. Your inner ear is very sensitive, and you definitely don't want to damage your eardrum! If you are unsure of your abilities, or if you're experiencing ear pain, let a medical professional examine your ear instead. With the app open and the speculum placed just barely into your ear, you should see video of your inner ear appear on your phone screen. Follow the product instructions for recording video, and move the speculum around slowly to get a full view of your inner ear. Do not stick the speculum deeper into your ear if the image is grainy, blurry, or dark. Check the settings for the product to see if you can improve the image....

TL;DR in English: Search online for smartphone otoscope attachments. Download the appropriate app and follow its instructions. Insert the speculum no more than 2 cm (0.79 in) into your ear. Move the speculum around slightly and record video of your inner ear. Send the video to a trained medical professional for diagnosis.

Most any song you can think of is available online with the click of a button. Now's the time to explore new genres, or learn to appreciate one at a greater depth. If you've always wanted to know more about jazz or appreciate classical music, now is your chance. You can find free music on Freegal, the Free Music Archive, and NoiseTrade. Thanks to the internet, you have an unlimited movie resource. Some may claim that movies cannot be educational, but watching the right film can be an enlightening experience. Watch classic movies, foreign films, and documentaries. Look for movies that increase your understanding of the world and challenge your current perspective. Although less movies are available in the public domain, you can watch many early films (like silent movies) for free. Public Domain Flix streams hundreds of movies released to the public domain. Every year, new books are available to read for free once their copyright has expired. In most European countries and the United States, books are released into the public domain approximately 70 years after the author's death. After this point, you can read e-books at no cost.  Project Gutenberg is a prominent volunteer effort to digitize books released into the public domain. They are an excellent source of free e-books.  You can also purchase e-books, if you'd prefer to read contemporary novels. You can buy e-books through popular retailers like Amazon, Google Books, or Kobo Store. Most books released into the public domain are available as a free audiobook. If you'd prefer a popular novel, you could purchase an audiobook instead. Audiobooks are a great way to absorb a novel when you're busy. If you work online, you can turn one on and enjoy the storyline while multi-tasking.  Similar to Project Gutenberg, LibriVox is a volunteer organization that makes public domain audiobooks available for free.  Audible is a popular online audiobook retailer that provides paid members with one or two audiobooks a month, depending on your subscription.

TL;DR in English: Expand your music horizons. Check out films and documentaries. Read books released in the public domain. Listen to audiobooks.

These often smell a little funky, and the color can be scary at first, but purple shampoo and conditioner will help keep your hair that striking white color, without developing brassy tones. The concept is similar to when people with blotchy skin use green face powder to reduce the redness of their complexion; because purple is the opposite of yellow, it counteracts those unwanted hues, and keeps your hair looking silver. You can use these once or twice a week. Don’t overdo it – everyday use will give you too strong a hue. This will help keep your hair that pristine white color. Some toners are also purple, like shampoos and conditioners designed for bleached hairs. The application process will be different for different toners, so follow the instructions on the box.  Again, be sure not to overdo it. Touch up with toner every couple of weeks at most. More than that and your color might start to look drab and flat. Consider having this done professionally the first time around if you have never done it before. Your stylist can teach you some tricks to make sure you are comfortable doing it on your own. Bleaching does an incredible amount of damage. It will need to be treated with extra care.  Only wash it a 3 or 4 times a week, and apply a hair mask every time you do.  Blow dry and curl it as infrequently as possible, and use products designed to protect hair from heat when you do. Use only sulfite-free products, to avoid damaging and yellowing your hair.  Once or twice a month, apply liquid coconut oil to the ends of your hair, wrap it in a towel, and let it sit for a few hours.

TL;DR in English:
