Blow dirt or dust off the window. Use clear water to clean lightly soiled acrylic. Use a non-abrasive cleaner on dirtier windows. Blot the surface dry. Remove scratches using car wax. Scrape the surface. Sand the surface.

A good site to begin with is eBay. It's user-friendly, and you don't have to have a lot of know-how to figure it out. Plus, the listing prices aren't too expensive, and it has a wide range of items. Other sites you can try include Amazon, Etsy (for vintage items), and even sites like Craigslist or Facebook (for larger items, especially). Amazon has more restrictions on listings than eBay. For instance, it restricts some selling categories. Some sites, such as eBay, have several options for listing items. You can list it as an auction item, where customers bid on it, or you can list it exclusively as a "Buy It Now" item. You can also do a combo of the two, where you start the item out at an auction price, but you have a "Buy It Now" option that's higher.  If you do an auction, make sure that you don't sell yourself short. If you start the bidding out too low, you could sell the item for much less than you'd like. A good rule of thumb is to start the item off at least at cost. A combination of the two works well, because customers can just grab the item if they really want it. Nonetheless, if you set the "Buy It Now" too low, you may be missing out on some profit. When you list the item, try to get a good overall shot. However, you also need to get the item from other angles, so that the customer can see it from all sides. Try to highlight any damage so you're not deceiving the customer. You should aim for at least five photos per item. Adding something for size perspective, such as a ruler, can also be helpful, especially for small items. In this case, "catchy" often means using popular keywords for your item, as well as details for your item. Don't get into a lengthy description. The keywords will help you find a good place in the listings, help you attract more customers. For instance, "Vintage Unicorn Jeans, Size 12, from 1972" can work better than "Beautiful Vintage Jeans. Must See!" Take a short paragraph to thoroughly describe the item. Make sure to include things like the brand and color. Also, don't...

TL;DR in English: Find a site. Decide how you want to list it. Have photos from every angle. Create a catchy title. Describe the item accurately. Include your policies in your listing. Don't forget to include shipping and supplies.

A bad boy knows what he wants from a partner and is honest about it (see step six under Part One.) There's no shame in pursuing purely sexual relationships as long as you're honest about it. Similarly, having a long-term girlfriend doesn't mean you have to be less of a bad boy. Below are some tips for handling the fairer sex like a true bad boy. The goal of a relationship shouldn't be to dedicate your life to your partner. Even if you're married, make your own plans. Reserve time for yourself. Spend time with your friends. If you treat yourself like a valuable commodity, your time will be highly sought-after by your partner. Conversely, if you're constantly making yourself available to your partner's whims, your time will become less valuable. Keep your backbone in any relationship - make sure you're not so dedicated to your partner that you forget about yourself. Being in a relationship with someone doesn't mean you need to worship them. Tease them! A lighthearted back-and-forth keeps a relationship passionate and fiery. It's also a good sign of a confident "alpha" personality - you're showing you're not afraid to engage in a little verbal swordplay. Think about it - would you really want to be in a relationship with someone you  always  have to be nice to?  Don't be too cruel with your teasing. Avoid subjects that your partner is sensitive about - for instance, her looks or her career. Keep it light. Be prepared to receive some teasing yourself - don't dish it out if you can't take it! If you accidentally hurt your partner's feelings, make a genuine apology. Remember, bad boys are honest - if you're truly sorry, say so. Don't feel like you need to withhold a well-deserved apology to be a bad boy. That's not "bad" - it's just jerkish. This doesn't mean to boss your partner around or prevent her from making decisions. Rather, it means you should aim to be decisive in situations where it's appropriate and to have a plan at all times. For instance, if you're going out, pick a place and make reservations ahead...

TL;DR in English: Know what you want. Have your own life. Be cocky. Wear the pants in your relationship. Be surprising. Give her space and make sure she gives you space.

This is an easy and effective method for small to medium adjustments, but you shouldn't expect a full-size change. For that, you'll need a shoe stretching liquid and a boot stretcher. This method works because the water will expand when frozen, pushing into the shoe. It has nothing to do with the boots becoming wet, which could shrink or damage them. Fill two Ziploc bags or other freezer-safe plastic bags roughly 1/3 full of water. Squeeze out as much of the air as possible before sealing.  Use a bag that will fit snugly into the part of the boot that needs stretching. A quart (liter) bag works for most toe and heel related adjustments, while you may need a gallon (4 liters) bag to stretch the calf of the boot. To remove the air, seal most of the way and leave a small gap. Gently press the portion of the bag containing air until most of the air has exited and the plastic is nearly flat. Bags not labeled for freezer use may break later in the process, leaking water onto your boots and potentially damaging them. Put each bag of water into one of the boots. If you want to stretch the toe, tilt the boot forward and gently push the bag as far as it will go. If you need to stretch the calf, keep the bag from slipping by stuffing the toe with newspapers. Put your boots in a freezer or icebox and leave them there for 8-12 hours. Unlike most liquids, water expands when it freezes, pushing the boot outward from the inside. If the bag slips out of the toe when you move the boots, tilt the boots forward and prop them up on a block of wood or anything else that will keep them stable. Remove the boots from the freezer and wait for the ice to melt before removing the bags. How long this takes depends on the temperature. Don't try to remove the bags right away, as you could damage the boots trying to pull them out. You should feel a noticeable difference in the stretched area. If it's still insufficient, or if the boot starts to shrink back, you can repeat this method to stretch it out further.

TL;DR in English: Learn how to use this method properly. Fill two resealable bags partially with water. Push the bags into the area you want to stretch. Leave the boots in a freezer overnight. Thaw for 20 minutes or more. Remove the bags and try on the boots.

Because acrylic is easily scratched, you don’t want to just wipe away any dirt or dust that is on the surface of the window. Instead, use air or water to remove dirt before you begin to clean. You can use canned air to blow dirt off of the windows, or drip water onto the surface that picks up the dirt and allows you to float it off. If you use water, blot the window dry with a microfiber cloth after the dirt has come up. If your acrylic window still needs a bit of cleaning after you've removed the top layer of dust and dirt, use clear water to clean it. Simply repeat the process of dropping water onto the surface of the acrylic and blot it dry with a microfiber cloth. Don’t rub the window with the microfiber cloth as this can cause scratches in the acrylic. If you’re washing particularly dirty or outside-facing windows, mix equal parts non-abrasive cleaner and water to make a cleaning solution. Then dip a microfiber cloth in the solution and gently blot the acrylic surface clean. Good non-abrasive cleaners for this type of cleaning are castile soap, baby shampoo, or Woolite or Dreft. Once you’re done cleaning the acrylic window, use a dry microfiber cloth to blot the surface of the window dry. Avoid wiping the cloth across the surface of the window as this can cause scratches. If, once you’ve cleaned the window, you discover scratches in the surface, you can use car wax to remove them. Apply wax to the areas that are scratched and use the buffer that comes with the wax to buff the surface. If you’ve never buffed a surface before, proceed for gently with this step. If you have very deep scratches in the acrylic, you scrape the surface of the acrylic. Hold a sharp scarping tool at a 10 degree angle and move it from side to side, evenly and gently scraping off the excess. This technique should only be used for very, very deep scratches. Sanding the surface of acrylic gives it a matte finish, which gives it a frosted look. You can perform this technique with sand paper by hand, or with sanding tools. Simply sand...

TL;DR in English:


Remind your friend if she starts falling back on old behavior. Stop being a doormat. Stay positive. Check progress often. Take a break. Know when it’s time to end the relationship.

Remove excess stain that may have overlapped onto the tiles by filling a spray bottle with water. Thoroughly spray the area and wipe down with a clean sponge. Use a nylon scrub pad to clean any stubborn dried stain from your tiles.

If you have a very new or high-end vehicle the key might not be replaced by anyone but the manufacturer or distributor. In this case, you may be able to get a discount through your warranty. Bring all your car’s information, a valid photo ID, and any other sets of keys you may have to the dealership. Hope for the best! Depending on the sophistication of your car key you may be able to have a new electronic key programmed by a locksmith. Many new car keys have a microchip in them to prevent duplication. However, if you have a key with a transponder in it you can probably get a new one at a locksmith for $50.00 - $120.00 depending on your car and your area.. Manufacturers started using transponders in the 1990’s – they are chips in the head of the key that communicate with the car. If the wrong key is in the ignition, the car will not start. Transponder keys are available at locksmiths, Search for ‘aftermarket electronic car keys’ on the Internet and you’ll find plenty of options for replacement electronic car keys. Oftentimes you’ll be able to get a new car key for 75 % less than what the dealer would charge you. But you still need to get it cut and programmed so be sure to check prices for that in your area before you purchase anything. This will cost you upwards of $200.  However, if you just want a key that you know will work and you want to get it quickly and easily this is not a bad option. Visit your local dealer – if it’s a Honda, go to a Honda dealership, if it's a Ford go to a Ford dealership, etc.. Sometimes you can program them to your specific car without a special technician. The instructions are usually included with the new key, but your owner’s manual will be very helpful in this situation. Depending on the car, reprogramming usually involves opening and closing the doors and/or turning lights and other electronics on and off. You press a series of buttons like a code, basically.

TL;DR in English: Check to see if key replacement is covered by your warranty or car insurance. Visit your local locksmith. Buy an aftermarket replacement car key. Get a new set of keys from your dealer. Program your new key to your car.

If it is still light outside, use your power outage as an excuse to go outside and get active. Your mind will focus more on moving and breathing, and less being bored. If it is dark outside, you can still do some simple exercises inside, such as stretches or yoga.  Listed below are some ideas to get you started:  Bike ride Jogging Jumping jacks Stretches or yoga Walk around the block If you live in a good neighborhood and the weather is nice, send the kids outside to play. Having no power at home is a great opportunity to get out of the house and do other things. If the people you are visiting don't have power either, be sure to bring along some candles, games, and snacks. You can have a fun game night while you wait for the power to come back. Is there anything in your house that needs painting or repairs? Does your bathroom need thorough scrub? So long as there is enough daylight, there is plenty you can do in your house. By the time your power is back, you might even have a sparkling-clean bathroom and a freshly-painted bedroom. If the weather is decent, you can always pack your car, and go on a road trip. You don't have to go far. You can even go to the park or the library. If there is a big city or national park close to you, you can drive there and spend the day exploring. By the time you come home, the power might already be back. When all else fails, you can always take a nap. You may end up having a great, exciting dream. More importantly, you will wake up feeling refreshed and energized. You may have more motivation to do things you'd usually find boring (such as cleaning), or you may get some ideas for new projects (such repainting your cabinets or working on a painting).

TL;DR in English: Exercise. Visit your friends, family, or neighbors. Catch up on some cleaning or housework. Go on a road trip. Take a nap.

You can host the party indoors at your home if you plan to have a smaller guest list of around 20-30 people. If you plan to invite more than 50 people, you may want to consider renting an indoor venue, such as a jazz club, a restaurant, or a community hall. You may go for an indoor venue if the weather is going to be unpredictable or too cold for your guests on the day of the party. If you know you are going to have good weather for the party, consider an outdoor venue like your backyard or a park. Outdoor venues were popular in the 1920s. You can also rent out the patio at a local restaurant or an outdoor garden. It may be fun to find an outdoor venue where you can put up white tents so guests can enjoy the weather without being directly in the sun or the elements all party long. A Great Gatsby party will be the most atmospheric at night. Parties in the 1920s were often scheduled late at night, going until the early morning. Make the start time for the party in the evening, such as 8 o’clock or 9 o’clock. Expect guests to arrive fashionably late. Having the party later at night will also give you time to prepare for the party that day. Go for a black and gold theme for the invitations to make them more Gatsby-esque. Choose art deco patterns and gold glitter. Pick font that is slim and glamorous looking. You can make your own invitations using your computer or an online invitation site. Send out the invitations at least two weeks before the party date. You can also order custom invitations from online print and design shops. For example, you may write, "The party is on Thursday, March 4, at the Kelly Jazz Bar, from 8 pm to 1 am." You can also include a note about the theme of the party, such as, “Please join us for a Great Gatsby Party.” Ask your guests to dress up based on the theme. Suggest flapper dresses, pearls, feathers, dapper suits, and silk scarves. Encourage your guests to dress in their best Gatsby style outfits for the party.  You may note that dressing up is optional, but recommended in the invitation.

TL;DR in English: Get an indoor venue for a smaller party. Go for an outdoor venue based on the weather. Schedule the party for the evening. Send out custom invitations. Note the time, date, and place of the party in the invitations. Request Gatsby-esque attire from guests.

Before you start explaining SEO to your client, consider how much your client knows about the internet. This will help you determine what tactic you should use when explaining SEO. The last thing you'd want is to confuse your client by using unfamiliar terms, or insult your client by using too simple explanations. For example:  If your client is unfamiliar with the internet, including websites, search engines, blogs, links, and so forth, consider using more analogies and comparisons. Terms such as "search results" and "links" may confuse your client. If your client is familiar with the internet, he or she may already have an idea of how searching for things on the internet works. Terms such as "search results" and "links" will probably get the point across, and you won't have to use as many analogies or comparisons. If your client is very familiar with the internet and how it works, a simple definition might be all it takes to get him or her to understand SEO. Different people learn things in different ways, so you may have to employ various techniques to get your point across. There are three main learning styles: verbal, visual, and physical. You may have to use a combination of two or all three styles to explain SEO to your client.  Some people learn new concepts better through discussing them verbally over the phone or in person. Consider setting up a meeting with your client to discuss SEO with him or her. Some people learn new concepts better through visual means. This could be as simple as sending your client an email with a definition of SEO to as extensive as providing them with a chart or diagram. Some people are physical learners, and need something demonstrated for them. Consider drawing a chart when discussing SEO, and pointing out parts to the client while speaking. You can also show them how it works physically on a computer. If you have a client who is completely new to the concept of SEO, he or she may never have heard of it before and may not know what it stands for. In this case, you will...

TL;DR in English: Know your client's expertise on the internet. Determine your client's learning style. Break down what SEO stands for. Explain what SEO does for the client using simple phrases. Familiarize yourself with your client's website.

If your friend starts falling back into their old behavior, say something about it. Do this each time it happens. Let them know how the behavior makes you feel, and remind them that they agreed not to work on it.  Let your friend know when they act selfish, such as constantly seeking attention by spamming you with text messages. If your friend made a promise to fix their behavior, then remind them of that promise. It's possible they forgot, and just need a gentle reminder. Many people behave in selfish ways because other people let it happen. If a person asks for excessive favors or talks about herself without stopping, stop the behavior right away. Don’t allow the person to walk all over you.  For example, if they always talk about themselves whenever you hang out, you could decline the invitation. You could also accept it, but steer the conversation your way. For example, if your friend is always looking for sympathy, stop giving it to them. Instead, offer solutions or help them see the positive side of the situation. If a selfish person treats you poorly, it’s not because you’re not worth being treated well. Selfish people ignore their friends or neglect their obligations because they only think of themselves, and this has nothing to do you or your value as a person. Don’t let your friend’s behavior get to you or make you feel bad about yourself. Spend some time thinking about whether the person has been truly committed to changing. Often, you will see immediate changes because the person is embarrassed and had never realized that she was selfish. Other times, changes will be slower, but you’ll see your friend taking small steps to change. Try to stay patient.  Talk to your friend every few days. See if they're doing better in their personal lives, or whether they're holding up their promise to be less selfish. Hanging out with your friend is a great way to tell if their behavior is changing. Spend time together as you normally would, and see if your friendship feels different or improved. Talk to mutual...

Invite friends, family, or neighbors to your party. Send, or email, Hawaiian-themed invitations. You could decorate the invitations with palm trees, hula girls, or surfers. You could also choose invitations with beach themes, flowers, or ocean scenes. It won't be much of a stretch to ask your guests to wear their swimsuits, sundresses, or shorts. Hawaiian-style (flower printed or "island" themed) shirts, board shorts, or skirts are easy to find during the summer. Ask your guests to wear sandals, or provide them with inexpensive flip-flops decorated with fake flowers. If you are planning to make real flower leis, you can make them the night before the party. If not, paper leis are great as well. Place one over the head of each guest as they arrive to get them in the spirit of the party.

TL;DR in English: Send themed invites. Ask your guests to dress for the theme. Give your guests a lei as they arrive.

Make sure that the mold you are using is safe to use in the oven. Some molds may be labeled as "silicon," but are not actually oven-safe. The silicone molds for baking cupcakes or for making chocolates/candy would be ideal. Make sure that you are packing the mixture as firmly as you can, or the shower bombs will be more likely to crumble. During this time, the mixture will dry and harden. If you do not wish to use an oven, you can set these out someplace where they won't get disturbed for 24 to 48 hours; they must be perfectly dry. Do not take them out of the molds just yet. If you take them out too soon, they might not be fully dry, and might crumble as a result. The eucalyptus and peppermint will help relieve congestion in the nose and chest. They may also help loosen or thin out any phlegm. Lavender, on the other hand, will help relax your muscles, and sooth any headaches that might be caused by the congestion. Turn on your shower, and place one of the shower bombs on the floor, near the drain. The warm water will dissolve the shower bomb, and help release the essential oils into the air. Keep the rest of the shower bombs in an airtight container.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to between 200°-350ºF (94°-177ºC). Pack the mixture firmly into a silicon mold. Place the mold onto a baking sheet, then leave it in the oven for 2 hours. Take the shower bombs out of the oven, and let them cool. Place 1 drop of peppermint, lavender, and eucalyptus essential oil on top of each shower bomb. Use the shower bombs.

Taking care of your body and your health is one of the first aspects of your life that people will notice when they come into contact with you. By exercising and eating right, you’ll look and feel healthier, which will improve your mood and make you more pleasant to be around. People will know immediately that you care about yourself and that you’re capable of working hard.  Simple dietary changes can lead to massive improvements in your overall health and look. Focus on eating more healthy foods, like lean proteins (salmon, chicken breast, soy beans), fresh fruits and vegetables (cranberries and avocados are loaded with nutrients), and healthy grains (brown rice).  Avoid trans fats and foods high in sodium. Cutting fast food and soda out of your diet will help. Jogging is a fun and easy way to exercise and stay fit that doesn’t require equipment or a health club membership. Get a friend to tag along and keep each other motivated. Your clothes say a lot about who you are. They’re a choice you make each and every day that speaks to your sense of style and they should be utilized as a tool for presenting yourself to others. Whether in a business scenario, a first date, or just gathering with friends, people judge you on the clothes you wear, so make sure you’ve got a look that you’re comfortable with.  People are more likely to trust, be friendly with, and invest in a person who wears nice clothes. Subconscious judgments occur in the minds of even the most non-judgmental people.  Iron your shirts and pants to avoid looking like you just rolled out of bed. It’s easy to do and doesn’t take very long, yet the results have a big impact on your presentation. Try to coordinate outfits that match, using clothes that fit and accessories that don’t clash. Even if you’re in great shape and are wearing the perfect outfit, the way you present yourself can still be a disaster if your body language doesn’t shine. Body language communicates more than spoken words or appearance when it comes to how people perceive you and your...

if their inhaler isn’t working or they can’t breathe. If the person loses consciousness, is struggling to breathe, or if their lips or nails are turning blue, call for help right away. You should also call an ambulance if the person doesn’t have their inhaler, if their inhaler doesn’t help alleviate their symptoms after ten puffs, or if the inhaler helps initially but their symptoms worsen afterwards. Use a cell phone or ask someone else to call the ambulance so you can stay by the victim. If you have access to a car, drive them to the hospital.  Keep them calm while you wait for the paramedics to arrive. Encourage them to sit up straight, breathe slowly and continue to use their inhaler if it helps. If the person has mild symptoms and can speak and move around, you can try to alleviate their symptoms without calling for help. If the symptoms aren’t severe enough to need immediate medical attention, take a moment to recognize the symptoms and communicate with the person to confirm that they’re having an asthma attack. If you know that the person has asthma and you see that they’re having trouble breathing, they’re probably having an asthma attack. If you don’t know for sure that they have asthma, watch for signs and symptoms of an attack, such as:  Difficulty speaking Difficulty breathing Wheezing Coughing Distress or panic Blue tinge to their lips or beneath their fingernails The person having the asthma attack may feel frightened or start to panic. It’s important that you remain calm. Take slow, deep breaths. Use positive language, like, “It’s going to be okay,” or, “I’m here with you.” When you tell the person what to do, speak in a calm, firm voice – “I need you to sit upright and point to where your medicine is.” Avoid saying anything that may make the person more afraid, like, “I don’t know what to do!” If you stay calm, you’ll help the victim feel calmer. If you encounter a stranger having an asthma attack, don't assume that they want your help. Approach them calmly, quickly introduce yourself, and...

Choose a high-efficiency laundry detergent. Select a cold water laundry detergent when using cold water. Use the water temperature to decide on powdered or liquid detergent. Purchase an environmentally friendly detergent.

Painting all of the edges in the room, also known as “cutting in,” should be done before painting the walls entirely. Use an angled paint brush to carefully paint the corners and edges. When cutting in, paint a strip along the edge that is 2 inches (5.1 cm) to 3 inches (7.6 cm) wide. To reach the top corners of your tall wall, use strong tape to attach your brush to the extension pole. The pole should be long enough that you can paint without having to use a ladder. If there's edging that needs to be done using a tall ladder, have someone hold the ladder while you're at the top for safety. Paint edgers can be used with an extension pole or by themselves, and they're great for painting clean, straight lines without using tape. Simply slide the edger along the wall's edge, and it should apply paint in a clean line without getting paint on the opposing wall. You can buy an edger at your local hardware store or online, and they usually cost less than $10. How long it takes the paint to dry will depend on the type of paint you're using. In most scenarios, your paint should be mostly dry after 1 hour, and the walls should be ready for a second coat after 4 hours. After the edges you painted are all dry, it's time to add a second coat. Try to paint nice, even coats so that you won't have to go back up the ladder to do touch ups later on.

TL;DR in English: Cut in the edges of the walls, doors, windows, or trim. Attach the paint brush to the end of an extension pole to reach tall spots. Use an edger attached to an extension pole for clean lines. Wait 4 hours for the edges to dry. Apply the second coat of edging.

While slowly extending your spine in a controlled manner, you can reach around your back and put pressure on the area that has the most tension, which will induce a little more focused extension there. This movement requires a little more flexibility, especially from your upper body and arms. The spine tends to have more range of motion from side-to-side than it does in extension, so rotation tends to be a safer or more forgiving motion.Rotation of the spine can crack most areas of your back, especially the lumbar region or low back.  While standing with your feet shoulder-width apart (for stability and balance), place your arms in front of you, bent at the elbows. In a controlled fashion, rotate your upper body as far as you can in one direction, then switch and do the other way a few seconds later. You can use some momentum by swinging your arms, but be careful not to go too far and risk pulling a muscle. Repeat as many times as necessary, but once you crack your back, it won't crack again at the same spinal segment for between 20–30 minutes or so. It takes that long for the joint to reset again. Rolling on a piece of firm foam is a good way to massage your back and it also increases the likelihood of cracking or popping some spinal joints, especially those in the mid back region (thoracic). Foam rollers are commonly used in physiotherapy, yoga and pilates. Another way to rotate the lower half of your spine is to do it while sitting, which might feel more stable and easier to control. You can also use your arms and hands to induce a little more rotation without having to swing your body, which is likely a little safer.  Sit on the floor with one leg bent at the knee and the other leg extended — it does not matter which side you start with because you'll switch and do both sides a few times. With the foot of the bent leg on the ground, push with it and rotate your torso in the opposite direction, using your hands to stabilize you and induce more rotation. Try to look back over your shoulder on the same side...

TL;DR in English: Extend your spine with help from your hands. Add some spinal rotation while standing. Use a foam roller. Rotate your spine while sitting on the floor. Sit in a chair to get more leverage. Do a twisting stretch while lying on your back.

If you paddle out to a group of surfers waiting for a wave (also known as the “lineup”), try to stay out the way and keep to the edges. Longboards can paddle more quickly and catch smaller waves than normal surfboards, so your outer positioning won’t hurt your chances at catching an amazing wave!  Be sure not to hog the waves, though. Experienced surfers generally don’t mind surfing with beginners, as long as they’re not being rude or stealing all of the good waves.  If this is your first time surfing, you may want to pick an area beyond the break where there are fewer surfers. This way, you’ll have less obstacles and people to worry about while you get the hang of your longboard. This anticipation is one of the best parts of surfing! Feel the water as you lean back on the tail and make wide, sweeping strokes through the water with your cupped hands. Note the rhythm of the waves coming in and out, watching for sets and lulls, and take in the beauty of the ocean. Keep an eye on the horizon for a wave while you wait. Lay back down on your board and kick your legs in an eggbeater motion while paddling with 1 arm to turn back to face shore. Once you’re facing directly away from the wave, paddle hard with long, deliberate strokes. Keep paddling until you feel a slight lift of a wave at the back of your board, then give a couple more strong paddles.  While you’re paddling, keep your body toward the back of the board so the nose stays out of the water. If you’re a beginner, ask a friend to help push you into a wave or work on your paddling until you can catch a wave. Once you’ve caught the wave, all you have to do is ride it toward shore! Don’t tense up or go rigid—instead, bend your knees and keep your body limber and relaxed. Lean slightly back and forth, adjusting your footing, to get the feel for the stability of the board and the power of the wave. Get in the water as often as you can. If you practice every day for a week, you’ll be able to see yourself improving! Keep perfecting your paddling, turning,...

TL;DR in English: Position yourself on the outside of the lineup. Sit on your board as you wait to observe and enjoy the water. Turn around and paddle hard once you spot a wave. Stand up quickly to catch the wave and keep your body relaxed. Keep practicing your technique and don't get discouraged.

You will need about a glassful of ice. Strawberries come in different sizes, so how many strawberries you use will vary. This could be anywhere from 3 to 6 strawberries. A simple way to figure out how many strawberries you'll need is to simply cut and slice some strawberries and start filling up a measuring cup. Stop when you are just short of the ½ cup/4 ounces/120 millimeters mark. The best strawberries are fresh and ripe, but you can also use frozen ones as well. If you do use frozen strawberries, thaw them first. For a sweeter daiquiri, add some more sugar. Keep in mind that if the strawberries are already very ripe, you may not need much sugar. From time to time, open the blender, and push the mixture down the sides with a spatula. This will help things mix more evenly. Slice a strawberry partway, from the bottom almost to the top. Slide it over the rim of the glass.  You can also use other garnishes as well, including mint leaves, paper cocktail umbrellas, or orange/lime slices. For a fancier twist, add a swirl of whipped cream on top, and place a maraschino cherry on top. If you'd like, you can pop a straw into the daiquiri.

TL;DR in English: Fill a blender with cracked ice. Cut and slice 3 ounces (90 grams) of strawberries. Add the strawberries to the blender, along with the sugar and lime juice. Blend until the mixture is smooth. Pour the mixture into a glass and garnish it with a strawberry. Serve.

Fry bread is most delicious while it's still hot. Eat the fry bread straight from the pan or top it with one of the following toppings:  Honey and butter mixed together Powdered sugar Cinnamon If you're feeling ambitious, use your fry bread to create a traditional, filling treat. Fill the fry bread with some or all of the following taco ingredients:   Ground beef cooked with taco seasoning Chopped lettuce Chopped tomatoes Chopped onions Pinto beans Sour cream Green chile Salsa

TL;DR in English: Serve immediately. Make Navajo tacos.

High-efficiency washing machines use less water than traditional washing machines, and specialized high-efficiency laundry detergents must be used when washing clothes in such a machine.  However, most high-efficiency detergents can also be used in traditional washing machines, too. Cold water laundry detergents are specially designed for use in cold water.  If you are washing new clothes that are colored, you’ll need to wash them in cold water to prevent color bleeding.  Cold water detergents generally work best in water between 60 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit (16 to 24 degrees Celsius).  Adjust your washing machine’s water temperature to the appropriate temperature range, if possible. Washing your brand new clothes (or even your older clothes) in cold water can save energy, which means you save money. Powdered detergents are best in cold water.  Liquid detergents mix better with warm or hot water. You might have to hunt a bit to find powdered detergents.  They are becoming increasingly rare. Traditional detergents often contain chemicals that could be discharged into local waterways, affecting aquatic life and, potentially, the communities that use those waterways.  Fortunately, there are many environmentally friendly detergents that use nontoxic alternatives or, at the very least, fewer chemicals.  Choose one of these to reduce your negative environmental impact. You can often identify an environmentally friendly detergent by its name.  Look for detergents with names preceded by the prefix “eco” or “bio.”

TL;DR in English:


Go to the airport. Hire a private car or FX. Pay the driver.

Attention-seeking behaviors can sometimes be a result of trauma, neglect, or other stressful situations. It can also be a sign of low self-esteem or feelings of inadequacy. If this is someone you care about, try to find a time to chat to see if there is something that is causing this behavior.  You might start this conversation by saying, “Hey, I want to check in. Has everything been going all right lately?” If the other person doesn’t want to talk, they don’t have to. You can simply tell them something like, “If you ever do want to talk, just let me know.” Your loved one might be worried that no one will care for them if they don’t constantly seek out their attention and approval. Let the person know that you will love them, even when you’re not directly paying them attention.  You might send them a random text that says, “Hey, I was just thinking about you. Hope you’re having a great day!” or “I just want you to know how much I appreciate everything you do.” You can even tell them something like, “Even if we’re apart, you’re still important to me.” It is important to approach them yourself so that they don’t have a chance to try to grab your attention. This will help reassure them that they don’t need to resort to drama or conflict to get positive attention. Extreme behavior might manifest as threatening to hurt or kill themselves, locking themselves in rooms, or breaking down over minor events. These are usually signs of underlying mental health issues. The good news is, your loved one can get support and treatment from a mental health professional.  You might tell your loved one, "I've noticed that you seemed really upset lately. I love you, and I want to make sure you get the help you need." These behaviors may be a call for help. Try not to dismiss these threats as just attention seeking. They may very well be legitimate. Personality disorders, like Histrionic Personality Disorder or Borderline Personality Disorder, may cause people to engage in extreme attention-seeking behaviors.

TL;DR in English: Determine if there is an underlying cause to their behavior. Boost their self-esteem when they are not actively seeking your attention. Suggest that they get professional help if you think they will hurt themselves.

Contact paper comes in rolls. Unroll some and lay it flat on the table. Make sure the paper side is facing up.  Don’t unroll too much paper at first, or the wrapping will be difficult to work with. You can always unroll a little more later if the book is large. Contact paper is available at many convenience stores, as well as arts and crafts stores. You can also order a roll online. The text block is the opposite end from the spine. Arrange this edge parallel with the end of the paper. Leave a 1 inch (2.5 cm) space between the book and the end of the paper so you have room to wrap the plastic over the inside cover.

TL;DR in English: Lay a sheet of contact paper flat on a table with the paper side up. Place the book on the paper with the text block 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the end.

Packing cubes come in full, half, and quarter sizes that each work best with a certain type of clothing. Generally, you should bring a couple smaller quarter-sized cubes for shorter trips, and a variety of the 3 sizes for longer trips. Lay out any clothes made of softer material, such as underwear, T-shirts, jeans, cotton pants, and knitwear. Fold them lengthwise, then roll up each folded piece into a bundle before placing them into the packing cubes. Rolling will keep your clothes compressed, letting you make the most of the space in your suitcase. This is especially helpful for extended trips that require more clothing options. Rolling can damage clothing made of stiff or delicate, expensive fabrics. Fold these normally and stack them in the packing cube. To avoid wrinkles, you can also pack them in a garment bag. This technique works best on items like blazers, dressy pants, dressy skirts, and starched shirts. Make sure that you can easily zip up the packing cubes once you’ve filled them. If they’re straining or overflowing, pull out a few items. There shouldn’t be any wasted space, but everything should still fit comfortably. Start by stacking any folded items in the bottom, then add rolled clothes on top. This will help protect the clothes from moving around too much and getting wrinkled or crumpled. Stacking will also help you get the best use of space out of the packing cubes. Place this cube at the top of your bag to keep the electronics from being crushed. The packing cube will help you find your electronics more easily when you need them, as well as keep all of your cords from getting tangled and mixed in with the rest of your things. If you use a packing cube as a designated laundry bag, make sure to bring some fresh dryer sheets as well. This will help control any odors and keep the cube smelling fresh.  Keeping your laundry in a packing cube will help keep dirty clothes out of the way, separate from the clean clothes, and compressed so they won’t take up too much space in your bags. A...

TL;DR in English: Choose the sizes and shapes you’ll need for the trip. Maximize space by rolling your softer clothes before packing. Fold stiff or delicate clothes instead of rolling them. Fill up the packing cubes without overfilling. Stack your clothes in the cube to reduce wrinkling. Put all of your electronics and chargers in a small cube. Pack a few dryer sheets into a cube to store with your laundry. Pack the cubes into your bag from largest to smallest.

A price guide is a book full of descriptions of specific types of items (antique furniture, baseball cards, stamps, etc.), along with the prices you can expect to get for each item. The best guide to use will depend on the kind of item you want to sell.   Kovel’s, in particular, is a highly respected publisher of price guides.  Many libraries have price guides on their shelves, too. Make sure that your price guide is up-to-date and recent. Because the prices of antiques and collectibles change depending on markets, an outdated price guide will not give you an accurate idea of how much your item is worth. The best price guides will also include plenty of pictures of the items included in its pages. The descriptions and values listed in price guides are general estimates. They cannot account for the wide variations in the quality and condition of specific items, economic conditions, or demand in specific regions.

TL;DR in English: Look for price guides specializing in items like yours. Choose the right price guide. Take pricing from price guides with a grain of salt.

Oatmeal expands while it is being cooked. The large bowl will keep the oatmeal from overflowing and making a mess. You can always put the oatmeal into a smaller serving bowl when you are done cooking it. This is enough for one serving. If you'd like to make more servings, you'll need to finish cooking this one first. You are only adding part of the water for now. You will add the rest later. Steel Cut oats cook differently than other types. Your oats won't be cooked all the way through just yet. You will be alternating between microwaving and adding water until the oats are cooked through. You do not need to cover the bowl. You may notice the oats soaking up water and becoming "meatier." After each minute, pause the microwave and stir the oats. This will keep the oatmeal from boiling out of the bowl. Use a potholder to handle the bowl, as it will be very hot. Set the bowl down on a heat-safe surface. At this point, you can add goodies such as cinnamon, honey, or raisins. Click here for more ideas. This will give the oats enough time to absorb any excess water. It will also allow the oatmeal to cool down enough to eat.

TL;DR in English: Choose a microwave-safe bowl large enough to hold 2 cups (475 milliliters). Add ¼ cup (20 grams) of steel cut oats, ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of water, and 2 pinches of salt into the bowl. Microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir in ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of water into the bowl and microwave for 1 more minute. Add ½ cup (140 milliliters) of water, stir, and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Take the bowl out of the microwave. Stir in any topping or add-ins. Let the oatmeal cool for 1 minute before serving.

You can hire a car from many places in Manila that will take you to Tagaytay. The private cars that can take you to Tagaytay often gather near the airport, though, so it is easiest from there. Taxis from the airport have regulated rates that make them more expensive than other options. A private car or an FX (a taxi-like van), hired just outside of the airport, will be a more economical option. You should be able to hire an FX for about $35 in US dollars. Don't be afraid to haggle over the price. For $35 you should at least be able to get to Tagaytay, and maybe hire a driver for the whole day. It is not uncommon for drivers to ask you to pay for fuel. This should come to no more than 1,000 Pesos.

TL;DR in English:


Cover your shoes to protect your clothes. Place socks in your shoes to help them keep their form. Wrap delicate shoes in a scarf or a t-shirt.

Consider the styles below:  Casual: Casual style basically consists of simple jeans, t-shirts and sweaters. This is the safest and most common style among high school boys. Sporty: As the name suggests, this style is most favoured by members of school sports teams. The sporty style includes track pants, sneakers, sports team tops and varsity jackets.  Preppy: The prep style is conservatively classy. This style involves lots of polo shirts, khakis and button-down shirts.  Skater: The skater style is fun and functional. If you choose this style you'll be wearing lots of flat sneakers, skinny jeans, hats and accessories.  Goth: The goth style is dark and brooding. The goth style has lots of black clothing, combat boots and trench coats.  Emo: The emo style is philosophical and sensitive. You'll be wearing lots of skinny jeans, long bangs and band t-shirts. Be careful with this style, because if you don't do the style right then you might be labelled goth instead of emo.  Hipster: The hipster style is vintage and anti-establishment. Expect to be wearing lots of skinny jeans, plaid shirts, big glasses and scarves as well as clothing that isn't "mainstream".  Classy:The classy style is formal and out-standing. Lots of suits, nice pants, some scarves, good-looking shoes, belt, and maybe good watches (preferably a minimalist watch) that will show your esteem and how you aren't afraid of being different then the casual clothes, gangster type clothes, or "fashionable" clothes. This is important because some stores cater only to one of the above style groups. If you are worried about not being able to find what you're looking for, then try a mall since they have tons of stores in them. You might think that neon yellow vest with purple stripes looks terrific on you, but they will probably have another opinion. However, if you still really like something after they give you the thumbs-down, buy it anyway as long as it isn't super expensive and you think that you will like it until you outgrow it.

TL;DR in English: Decide what style you want to aim for. Research stores before you go shopping. Plan to take your friends along.

There are three major types of lures that are the best for catching bass. You can get crank baits, spinner baits, and plastic worms. They can all be used successfully no matter the location or the time of year. The main aspect of the lure you need to consider is the color you choose for them. You should have two of each lure for your tackle box, one in a natural color and one in a bright, vibrant color.  Crank bait are small lures that look like small, live fish. There are two three-point hooks on each lure, one under the belly and one at the tail. The lures also have a flat plastic area on the lip of the fish. Try the Jackall Boil Trigger and the Rapala Ultra Light Crank. Spinner bait have two main parts. There is one arm that has large, curved pieces of metal called blades, and there can be one or multiple blades. The other arm is the same length with a hook on the end. The hook is sometimes covered in plastic wig that hides the hook or hooks. Try the Panther Martin or the Blue Fox Vibrax Spinner Minnow. The spinner arms can also be shaped like a fish, which can make it look similar to the crank fish. The difference is the crank fish has two three-pronged hooks and a lip while the spinner has one hook and blades. Plastic worms look like large earthworms and have a hook embedded into them. The fish are hooked once they try to eat the worm, so they are effective but require a bit of patience. If you don't want to use lures, you can also fish using live bait. The most prominent types of live bait for bass are worms, minnows, and crawfish. Worms are easy to keep and carry around, and you can keep them in the refrigerator in dirt if you don't use all of what you bought on your first fishing trip. Minnows and crawfish are harder to handle because you have to keep them in a bucket with water while you fish. You can also frogs, salamanders, and insects. The best kind of minnows for bass are shiner and the creek minnow variety. There are two main types of reels used in bass fishing. You can use a spinning reel,...

TL;DR in English: Get the right lure. Use live bait. Pick a reel.

Every school has a different set of rules that outline what you are allowed to wear. Although these rules vary, most schools require you to dress on the conservative side, and never show your midriff. Check out your specific school rules in the school handbook, or by asking an administrator at the school. Although you might be tempted to wear your best Friday night outfit to school, you have to remember that school is not a party. You are better off dressing comfortably. Regardless of the dress code, conservative outfits that are cute and casual are always the best option. If you show up to school too formally, others might think you are trying too hard. Keep in mind, you want to dress in a way that allows your teachers to have respect for you and not be distracted by your revealing clothes. Any attention you receive for your clothes should be positive, and not because your shirt is ultra low, or your pants are too tight. You do not want to find yourself breaking school rules and getting in trouble for inappropriate clothes. School is a professional atmosphere, so you should dress the part. Always check your clothes throughout the year for a proper fit. A top that may have once fit you perfectly, might now be riding a little too high on your stomach. Use these steps to check your clothes before you leave the house:  Raise your arms in the air, and if your stomach shows, do not wear it to school. Bend over and touch your toes to check your pants. If you find that your underwear sits higher than the top of your pants, it may be time to get rid of them. Bend over, and check the top of your shirt. If you have a lot of cleavage showing, pick a shirt that is more conservative. Do not wear a shirt that shows your bra strap. Many schools require you to have at least three fingers of coverage on your shoulders. Check the length of your skirt, dress, or shorts by putting your arms straight down by your side. If the length is shorter than your finger tips, it is not appropriate for school.

TL;DR in English: Follow the school dress code. Dress casually. Be sure your clothes fit well.

Notice the objects, shapes and lines in the background when taking pictures and when editing your pictures. Avoid including any distractions above the person's head. Steer clear of things like tree trunks, posts, narrow buildings, vertical lines, etc. At the same time, aim to have an interesting background. Read up on landscape art composition; this will help you to appreciate the art of composing more. There are many good books and websites available on the topic of landscape art composition. In the photo shown here, the photographer has carefully composed everything:  The poser in the foreground is what you notice first. We then notice the other people in the photo. The path also guides on along the visual path. In the background, a distance away, you finally see a nice landscape with the high building. If you have two centers of interest, you must compose your photo carefully. For example, in this image, you can see that the boat blends in with the building in the background––the photo could have been composed better. Selective focus with the background remaining blurry is an option where there is more than one center of interest. A different camera angle horizontal or vertical could help too; take many photos and choose from the best among them. Anything involving a scene, such as a beach scene, can be all too easy to clutter, especially if you're a novice at composition.  This scene has a lot of potential. The beach is obviously the center of interest but the white building in the upper left corner and the other building draws attention away from the beach. Crop this type of distraction by including just a portion of the white building.  Notice the simplicity of professional photos and frames of scenes in well made movies, and imitate this simplicity in your photos. Learn from the graphic design of products like beer ads. When composing your photo, think how a professional photographer would take the picture, and take your photo like a professional photographer. Move a bit, move a lot and use the...

TL;DR in English: Be mindful of the background. To add some depth, take your photos at an angle to the poser. When looking at photos, notice the visual path that you naturally follow, based on how the photographer composed the picture. Have one center of interest, where possible. Do not clutter your photo.

Space these clips evenly from the center point of the mirror you marked while remaining only in the thick, center panel of the door (if it has panels). Screw these halfway in.  Do not set the screws wider than the width of your mirror. Your mirror will be most secure with these bottom screws at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the corner of the mirror on each side. If necessary, rotate the plastic face of the clip up so it is facing the top edge of the door. It will be prone to spinning until you place the mirror in the groove, since it is only half screwed in. You can buy mirror clips at your local hardware or home improvement store. Slide the bottom edge of the mirror down into the groove of the 2 plastic clips you’ve half screwed into the door. Doing this will support the weight of the mirror from the bottom, but your friend will need to hold the top of the mirror against the door to keep it from falling. If you have trouble fitting the bottom edge of the mirror into the groove, unscrew the bottom clips slightly to create more room. About halfway up the mirror, mark 1 point on each side of the mirror at the same height. They appear like a matched pair. While your friend holds the mirror in place, screw a plastic mirror clip into each point to fully secure the sides of the mirror to the door.  The plastic face of the clip should rest against the front side of the mirror. It will hold the weight of the mirror, and your friend should be able to let go. If positioning your side clips halfway up the mirror would mean screwing them into a decorative portion of the door, adjust your clips up or down as a pair. Screw them into the solid center of the door so they can adequately support the weight of the mirror. It’s okay if your side clips are a third or two-thirds of the way down the door, for example. It won’t affect their weight-bearing capabilities. Tighten all the clips so they are holding the mirror firmly against the door. Have your friend let go of the mirror. Use two more plastic mirror clips to attach the top...

TL;DR in English: Screw 2 plastic mirror clips along the bottom edge line. Have a friend hold the mirror in place against the bottom clips. Using a level, create 2 marks, one on either long side of the mirror. With the mirror now secured on the bottom and the sides, screw the bottom mirror clips all the way in. Secure the top edge of the mirror.

You can use a plastic grocery bag, a resealable gallon bag, or a shower cap to cover your shoes. Or, place your shoes inside the drawstring dust bag that they came in when you bought them. This way, you can protect your clothes from dirt and smells.  If you do not have a bag, use tissue paper or saran wrap instead. Place bulky shoes, like sneakers and boots, in different bags, so you can pack them separately in your suitcase. Shoes can become squished into overly stuffed suitcases, warping their shape. Place rolled socks in your shoes, platforms, and stilettos. If your shoes get squished, the socks will help them retain their shape. Keep your formal shoes clean and safe from damage and dirt by wrapping them in something soft. Place your shoes inside a bag. Then wrap pajamas, a sweatshirt, or a scarf around your shoes to protect them.

TL;DR in English:


Purchase some Kool Aid packs. Get some conditioner. Prepare a location. Make the dyeing mixture. Decide on a pattern.

People who pretend to know everything are not as well liked as people who are willing to ask for help. Asking questions gives other people the opportunity to help you and that makes them feel good. If you are unsure of something or just want to know what someone else thinks, ask questions to give them a chance to share their knowledge. Try to get people to talk about themselves. Research has shown that when people talk about themselves, they feel the same pleasure as when they eat or receive money. . Active listening is a great way to get people to love you. The better you are at listening to people when they are talking, the more they will want to spend time talking with you. Practice active listening by nodding, using neutral phrases, and rephrasing what the speaker has just said.  Demonstrate that you are listening by nodding your head and using neutral phrases, such as, "Uh-huh,” “I see,” and “Yes.” Demonstrate comprehension by rephrasing what the other person just said. For example, if a friend says, “I have been so busy this week,” you can say, “So you haven’t had any time for yourself lately.” . Using humor is a great way to get people to love you too. If you know a good joke, share it with other people. If you are witty, make witty remarks. Just make sure that the humor you use is appropriate for the situation or you may end up offending someone. Look for little ways to make your companions laugh and they will love spending time with you. People who are willing to ask for help when they need it are often interpreted as more likeable than people who pretend like they know how to do everything. Show that you are open to other people’s advice and suggestions by asking for help when you need it. Allowing people opportunities to share their expertise with you will make them feel good and love being around you because of how useful you make them feel. . You can also use positive gossip in your favor to get people to love you. Instead of talking about what you don’t like about people, talk about what you do...

TL;DR in English: Ask questions. Listen well Joke around with people Ask for help when you need it. Say nice things about other people

Kefir seeds are available online or in health food stores. Kefir seeds reproduce on their own, so one starter batch can last years and years. You can also divide clumps of kefir seeds and give some to friends. Like sourdough, the kefir will simply reproduce, so you'll never run out.  Kefir seeds can be either frozen or dried if you want to store them.  If you expose the kefir seeds to a chemical or extreme temperatures, they can die. If you get into the daily habit of making kefir, it's worth picking out a jar that's just the right size for your needs. For an average amount of kefir, use a quart-sized mason jar. Kefir needs a breathable lid, which you can create using a coffee filter and a mason jar lid ring.  Don't use a plastic container, since the molecules can leach into the kefir. If you wish,  sterilize the jar before using it by boiling it for five minutes, then draining it on a clear paper towel. Kefir is usually made with whole milk. Using full-fat milk gives the kefir a tangy flavor and a yogurt-like texture, making it great to drink by itself or use in smoothies and recipes. For an even thicker kefir, add some cream. If you'd prefer not to drink cow milk, try these alternatives:  Water. You can make a fermented water-based drink with kefir to get its nutritional benefits. Make sure you use purified water, though - tap water contains chemicals that can kill kefir. Goat's milk. The human body is able to digest goat's milk more easily than cow's milk, so this is a good alternative if you're lactose intolerant. Coconut milk. Kefir-fermented coconut milk makes a great base for fruity, healthy drinks. Use the purest coconut milk you can find, with no additives or sugars. If possible,  make your own coconut milk to use. Grains won't reproduce in coconut milk, so you will have to return them to a dairy base when you're finished making this type of kefir.

TL;DR in English: Get kefir seeds. Buy a jar to use for kefir. Pick out a kefir base.

When it comes to setting the perfect table, colors matter. Formal and informal dining have different rules when it comes to color.  Formal dining should have light colors. Whites and ivories are preferable. If you want to add slightly more color, go with a light pastel shade.  Informal dining is less rigid about color requirements. Any shade is appropriate, from bright, primary colors to lighter shades. When setting your table with your new tablecloth, placing the tablecloth should be the first step. Make sure you place the tablecloth correctly.  Buy a padded table liner, which you can purchase at a local home goods store, to set over your table. This helps hold the tablecloth in place. The liner should be slightly smaller than your actual table. Set this on the table first.  Drape your tablecloth over the table. Make sure, on a square or rectangle table, the four corners of the cloth align with the corners of the table. Smooth out the tablecloth with your hands to get rid of any bumps or crevices. A runner is a strip of fabric that runs over the table in a horizontal or vertical line. If you want to add something extra to your tablecloth, consider adding a runner.  Runners are often holiday-themed, which can be helpful if you're planning a party around a particular event. For example, if you have a Christmas party a runner decorated with images of holly and snow could be a nice touch. The length of a runner depends on whether you plan on lying it horizontally or vertically. It should be about a foot longer than the length or width of your table. You can add other toppings to your table. Vases, flowers, candles, and centerpieces can be a nice touch. Go with toppers that convey your personality and style.  Avoid any topper that takes up too much space. You want to make sure your guests are still able to eat and drink without disruption. Be careful with flowers. Avoid flowers with a strong scent as this can affect the taste of food and drinks. If your tablecloth is made from a very silky material, it may slip...

TL;DR in English: Choose the proper color based on occasion. Place the tablecloth over the table. Consider a runner. Add other decorations. Clip the tablecloth, if necessary.

After you finish securing the lining and exterior piece together at the waistline, line up the exterior edges of the skirt and pin them together with the wrong sides facing each other. Then, sew a straight stitch 0.5 in (1.3 cm) from the raw edges of the exterior piece. Repeat this for the lining, but do not sew the back seam of the lining onto the exterior piece. Leave them separate. If your skirt includes a zipper, then you will also need to sew the edges of your skirt’s lining to the edges of the zipper tape before you sew up the back seam. Fold the edges of the lining fabric under around the edges of the zipper. Then, insert a few pins on each side of the zipper to hold the fabric in place. Sew a zigzag or straight stitch along the edges of the zipper and skirt lining to secure them together. Make sure that you do not sew through the skirt’s exterior layer when you do this. To hem your skirt, first fold the material so that the raw edges will be hidden on the inside of the skirt. Insert a pin every 2 to 3 in (5.1 to 7.6 cm) along the bottom edges of the skirt’s exterior and lining pieces. Set the lining hem 1 in (2.5 cm) higher than the skirt’s hem when you pin them into place. Make sure to fold and pin the hems separately. The only instance where you would want to hem them together is if you are making a pencil skirt. Place the pinned edge of the skirt’s exterior under your presser foot. Then, apply gentle pressure to the pedal to sew around the edges of the skirt’s hem. Remove the pins as you go to avoid damaging your sewing machine. Position the stitches about 0.25 in (0.64 cm) from the folded edge of the hem. After you finish sewing the hem on the skirt’s exterior, repeat the same process on the skirt’s lining.

TL;DR in English: Pin and sew the back seams of the skirt and lining separately. Sew the edges of the lining to the zipper tape on your skirt. Fold under the edge of the lining and skirt by about 0.5 in (1.3 cm). Sew a straight stitch along the folded edges of the skirt and lining.

Decide which color you want your dog’s hair to turn out and purchase some Kool Aid powder packets in the same shade. There are a variety of colors to choose from, but the best options are purple (grape), blue (berry blue), red (cherry or tropical punch), green (kiwi lime), yellow (lemon lime), or orange (orange).  Make sure you get the sugar-free kind of Kool Aid. This works better for dyeing. Remember that the dye will fade over time. Choose a color that you will still like as it fades. For example, red fades to pink after a few weeks. Purchase a bottle of conditioner designed specifically for dogs. This should be available for purchase at most grocery stores and pet stores. Make sure you get the kind that is specially formulated for canines because this will work better for the dyeing. Conditioning your dog’s hair will also help your dog’s coat be less tangled and easier to comb out. Since dyeing your dog’s hair can get a bit messy, you’ll want to choose your location wisely. You don’t want to unintentionally dye a bunch of your surroundings by accident. So choose a location outside, or in your garage, or in another location you don’t mind getting a bit wet and possibly multi-colored. You could even do it in your bathroom if you take the proper precautions ahead of time. Put down some old towels you don’t mind getting dirt or dye on. Take some canine conditioner and mix in the Kool Aid powder in your chosen color. The mixture should make a creamy paste that spreads easily.  You should use the same amount of conditioner you would normally use on your dog, which will vary depending on the size of your dog. Use on or two packets of Kool Aid powder depending on how big your dog is and how vibrant you want the color to be. If you have a large dog and you want a very vibrant color, use two packets. If you have a small dog, use one packet. You can use one color for your dog’s whole body, or you can use several colors in different areas. Make a conditioner/Kool Aid mixture for each color you want to use. You could...

You want to use hair tools that are gentle on your hair and scalp. Paddle brushes help your hair lie flat, giving the appearance of longer length, while round brushes create the look of shorter strands. Boar bristle brushes in particular work great to spread natural oils through your hair, which promote hair health.  In addition, use elastic hair ties without any metal. The metal pieces on hair ties can snag your ends and cause damages. Metal combs often result in broken ends, so instead use plastic combs instead. When using styling products like leave-in conditioners, mousses, gels, serums, and hair sprays, always select products with natural ingredients over products with chemical or artificial formulas. Chemical products will strip your hair of its natural oils and cause excessive dryness, while natural products will replenish and hydrate your hair. Look for products rich in coconut oil, jojoba oil, castor oil, and almond oil. In addition, styling products with essential oils like peppermint, tea tree, and eucalyptus are great for thickening hair. In addition to natural ingredients, you can purchase shampoos, conditioners, and styling products that are advertised as “volumizing,” “thickening,” or “lengthening.” These are formulated with ingredients that help open up the hair cuticle. You can also use specialty products that offer hair growth. For best results, use a quarter-size amount when you wash or style your hair. if you want some volume as your hair grows. To get the appearance of thicker hair, squirt a quarter-sized amount of dry shampoo into your hands, and rub your hands together. Then, run your hands through your hair at the roots. This temporarily increases the width of your hair strands. Also, dry shampoo helps your roots stand up, giving the appearance of thicker hair. Exposing your hair to high temperatures cause damages, dryness, and split ends. To keep your hair as healthy as possible, try not to use tools like flat irons or curling irons. Instead, wear your hair naturally or consider...

If you suspect that you have an STI, contact your general physician as soon as possible, and request an appointment to get tested for any sexual infections or diseases. Tests are inexpensive and easy, and do not require a referral or specialist consultation.  STI screening will typically include a urine analysis and culture, blood sample analysis, a pelvic exam, and a body tissue sample.  Do not put off getting tested. Many STIs are uncomfortable or painful. Also, putting off getting tested can increase your risk of contracting another STI, including HIV. The majority of STIs are very treatable. Bacterial infections can be cured with antibacterial medications, commonly prescribed as pills or tablets, or administered via injection. Parasite STIs, including scabies and public lice, are treated via a prescribed medicated shampoo. Even for viral STIs that cannot be treated or cured (which includes both herpes and HIV) your doctor can prescribe medications which will alleviate painful symptoms. If you’re sexually active, and especially if you’re not monogamous or change sexual partners with relative frequency, it’s important to get screened for STIs regularly. Some types of STI do not manifest notable symptoms, while the symptoms of other STIs can take weeks or even months to manifest.  When speaking to your doctor, be explicit in asking for an STI screening. Don’t assume that your doctor will test you for STIs simply because they’re performing a PAP smear or drawing blood. In addition, always ask your partner to get tested for STIs before you engage in sexual activity. This will help prevent the spread of STIs. If you don’t have a regular health care provider, or are concerned about the cost of STI screening and treatment, visit a clinic like Planned Parenthood. Although sexual health clinics will vary by region and by country, they’re typically an affordable option for anyone needing a STI screening.

TL;DR in English: Get tested for STIs. Ask about treatment options. Ask your doctor about frequent STI screenings.

Going to a couple games or sitting with the cool kids once at lunch won’t help you fit in permanently. You need to continue doing these things if you want to continue fitting in. If you have a loaded schedule, do what you can. Schedule a game or a hangout once a week. It will only take a couple hours out of your schedule and will help you fit in. Never get complacent as a friend. Always try learning more about the cool kids so that you can continue to talk to them on a deeper level. Especially if you don’t seem to get along with someone at first, continue to get to know them better. Often, people take a while to warm up. This may be the case, so just continue getting to know them and your opinion could change. Now that you’ve put yourself out there and hung out with the cool kids, you should make some consistent plans to keep hanging out. Have everyone over on the first Friday of every month for pizza and a movie or plan to have them over after each home football game. People want to feel wanted. It’s human nature. If you like spending time with them, tell them. You don’t have to remind them daily about it, but make a point to show them that your friendship means something.A great time to do this is around a holiday. Writing them all personalized cards to go with some goodie bags for Valentine’s Day, Halloween, or New Years is cheap and easy.

TL;DR in English: Keep putting yourself out there. Continue getting to know them. Make consistent plans. Let them know they’re important.

Generally, it’s a good idea to establish for your child that consequences exist, but you need to do so within reason. If your child has done a particular thing wrong for the first time, or they did something that was okay in one situation but wrong in this one, you should only give them a warning. They’re learning and can’t be expected to read your mind. However, if they repeat a behavior that they know isn’t allowed, consequences should be put in place. Before imposing consequences, warn the child that consequences are about to happen. Counting to three is less ideal, since it teaches your child that they do not need to respond to your requests immediately. Instead, tell them that consequences will happen if they do that action and if they don’t immediately stop, it’s time to put those consequences into action. The consequences for an action should be proportionate, appropriate and logically related to the action your child took. You do not want your child to become confused about what they did wrong or why it’s wrong. Match the consequences to their actions to help your child learn and keep you from over-reacting in frustration.  For example, if your child throws their dinner when they’re done eating, make them clean it up. However, if they refuse to eat their dinner, then just take it away and give them nothing (or a simple meal of whole grain or other healthy bread and a glass of water). If they are fighting over a toy, take the toy away for a period of time. If they refuse to put on a coat, simply let them be cold for a little while. Everyone in your child's life, including their mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, brothers, sisters, etc. all need to follow the same rules. All family members need to know that consequences need to be put in place if the child does something wrong. You don’t want your toddler to become used to bad behaviors that they then bring back home or to other environments. This can be tough, but explain that it’s better for everyone and help give them the tools they need to put consequences...

TL;DR in English: Know when consequences are appropriate. Warn children of consequences. Match consequences to actions. Get everyone on board.

Floors that get a lot of use, such as a kitchen floor, will need to be swept every 1-2 days to be kept clean. Keep in mind that darker colored flooring will take a bit longer to start looking dirty than lighter flooring. Lower traffic areas will need to be swept around twice a week. Pick the corner that is the longest distance from the exit, and plan how to work your way around any furniture to reach the exit. Start by sweeping that corner, and then move outwards, finishing the room by the doorway. Divide the room up into 4 sections, and sweep each using short and deliberate strokes. Keep the pile of swept dirt in each section, creating a new dirt pile in each section. Don’t move the dirt pile around, as this will make the floor dirtier. Sweep up the dirt pile from each section once you have finished sweeping the room. If the dustpan leaves behind a small line of dirt, use a damp paper towel to wipe it up. A clean broom is key to making sure that it will actually clean the floor, rather than add more dirt to it. The bristles should all be facing in one direction. If the broom bristles are askew, invest in a new one. Fill up a sink with hot, soapy water and give it a scrub. Make sure that you use a sink strainer so that the dirt doesn’t block up the drain.

Medicine is not a cure-all for your panic attacks. Instead, one of the most common treatments is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), administered with the help of a mental health professional like a psychologist. CBT challenges your fear. It teaches you to replace your false, unfounded fears with more rational beliefs and to develop an inner voice to cope while the fight or flight response runs its course. When feeling panicked, your response with CBT should be reassuring: “I'm in no danger.” Talk to a professional. See what sort of treatment options are available for you. There are in fact a number of different approaches that can be taken separately or at the same time. Mindfulness is an acceptance strategy and form of CBT, addressing aspects of your emotional experience that can't be directly changed. As someone who suffers from panic attacks, you likely have feelings of anxiety, fear, doubt, and urges to escape. With mindfulness you will learn that there is no “off switch” for these feelings and that the attempt to control them will only increase your distress. Mindfulness teaches you strategies to live with the sensations, to soften and accept them while letting them run their course. Exposure therapy reverses our normal response to fears. Our natural reaction is to avoid anxiety-inducing situations. But while avoidance gives immediate relief, it is actually counter-productive and can ultimately worsen your fears or create mental paralysis. Exposure therapy will systematically confront you with your fears or whatever might be inducing your panic.  Most therapists do this slowly, in a graded fashion, so that high-level exposure is not attempted until you successfully face lower-levels. With each step, then, you will build up more emotional “muscle.”  The confrontation can be real (“in-vivo”) or simulated, where you are guided through an imaginary scenario. Once your brain learns that these feelings are not dangerous, it will stop triggering your panic. Exposure therapy has been found to be effective in...

TL;DR in English: Talk to a mental health professional. Try practicing mindfulness. Try exposure therapy.

To make elderflower cordial, you do need freshly cut elderflowers. You can either harvest these on your own if they grow in your area, or you can find them at farmers markets, local farms, or specialty grocers. Because you'll be using the flowers for food, look for spray- or pesticide-free flowers. The supplies you'll need include:  Large saucepan Fruit zester Sharp knife Large heat-proof mixing bowl Large bowl and funnel Strainer Cheese cloth Bottles or mason jars (with lids) for storing Scissors Mixing spoon Two clean tea towels Pour the water and sugar into a large saucepan and heat over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the sugar has dissolved. Once that happens, increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a boil. Once the syrup boils, remove it from the heat. Set it aside to cool as you prepare the other ingredients. Use your fingers to pick out any insects, dirt, and dead flowers. You don’t want to wash the flowers, because washing will remove the pollen, which is where the flowers get most of their delicate flavor.  Use the scissors to trim the stems off the flowers. The stems are actually poisonous and bitter, so remove as much of them as possible. A few stems in the mix won’t hurt you, but you really only want the flowers to make the cordial.  Place the cleaned and trimmed flowers into the heat-proof mixing bowl. Use the zester to remove the zest from one lemon and one orange. Add the zest into the bowl with the flowers. Then cut all the lemons and oranges into slices and add them to the bowl as well. Sprinkle the citric acid over the mixture.  With your hands or a spoon, mix the flowers, zest, fruit slices, and citric acid together. The citric acid serves as a preservative in this recipe. Pour the syrup over the fruit and citrus mixture and give it all a stir. Cover the bowl with the clean, dry tea towel and let it sit. For the best results, let the cordial sit like this, covered and at room temperature, for 24 to 48 hours. This will give the syrup time to become infused with the flavors...

TL;DR in English: Gather your supplies. Heat the water and sugar. Clean and trim the flowers. Add the citrus to the flowers. Add the syrup and steep.

This should include a minimum down payment, monthly payments, and interest rate. You will want to negotiate terms that you feel confident that you can pay, but also meet the seller’s demand to receive his or her money in a timely fashion. The flexibility in these deals is one of the principal advantages to buying with a land contract.  You should set up a contract that allows you to pay your debt ahead of schedule without any penalties. You should aim to spend as little time under contract as possible, because as long as you are under contract, there is the possibility that the deal with go awry and you will lose the house and your investment.  Try to avoid including a balloon payment. A common feature of land contracts, they require you to close out the lending period, usually after a period of five to ten years, with a large lump sum payment of whatever is left on the loan.  They ensure that the seller receives his or her payment in a timely fashion, ideally when the buyer will be in a better financial position to make such a large payment. Often you will need to take out a loan to cover a balloon payment. It is best to negotiate a deal that does not require a balloon payment as it can cost you your house if you are unable to meet the obligation. Because land contracts can be risky ventures you should confirm that all components of the offer are satisfactory. You will need to consider not only special stipulations put into the deal, but also state laws. A legal expert can verify for you that there are no hidden pitfalls in the deal.  Check state laws to confirm procedures for missed payments. In some states a single missed payment will invalidate the deal, so that the seller will be able to keep the property and your payments, which become, in essence, rent payments. Other states give the buyer a right to the home if they were up-to-date with a majority of their payments and paid the total sum owed by a specified time.  Ask the lawyer for a title opinion. This is a comprehensive survey of all liens and...

Move the spatula around the stain with small circular motions.  This will loosen the debris that forms the stain and make the color fade. Mix four tablespoons baking soda and one or two tablespoons of water.  Smear the baking soda on the burned area with your finger or with a sponge.  Cover the area with a warm, damp rag.  Wait 30 minutes. After 30 minutes has elapsed, use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe the stained area.  If some of the stain remains, re-apply the baking soda paste and the damp cloth, and try again. The best cloth to wipe the area with is a microfiber cloth.  These cloths are specially designed with more fibers than a normal cloth, meaning they can absorb more of whatever you’re trying to wipe up than regular cloths.

When you and your partner are ready to start trying to get pregnant, stop using condoms, and talk to her about stopping her hormonal birth control if she's on any. If she has an implanted contraceptive device, like an IUD or an implant in her arm, your partner will need to visit her doctor to have it removed. If your partner is on hormonal birth control, it could take up to 6 months for her hormone levels to regulate. your partner's ovulation each month. The best way to get a woman pregnant is to have sex with her around the time that she ovulates, or when she releases an egg. This typically occurs in between her menstrual cycles. You can use a calendar to keep up with the days, or you can use a fertility tracking app to help you both remember. You can also track fertility by measuring your partner's basal temperature once a day, or she can monitor her cervical mucus. Once you establish when your partner ovulates, try to have sex at least once a day during that week. Since your sperm can live for up to 5 days after ejaculation, having sex frequently during this time will help ensure there's viable sperm available when the egg arrives. Even when she's not ovulating, try to have sex about 2-3 times a week. Not only will each individual session increase the odds that you'll conceive, having a lot of sex can actually boost your sperm count. Lubricants may affect your sperm's movement, so try not to use them if you don't have to. If you do need lubricants to help with comfortable sex, ask your doctor about an option that won't affect your sperm.  Popular lubricants like Astroglide and K-Y jelly may have an affect on how sperm function. Baby oil and canola oil are lubricating options that may work without affecting your sperm. Your general physician may order a semen analysis, which will check both your sperm count and the health of your sperm. If there are any problems, your doctor may refer you to a male fertility specialist. Your partner should arrange an appointment with her doctor at the same time to rule out...
