If you don't already speak the language from your cultural background, learning it is a great way to celebrate your family heritage. Sign up for languages courses at your school, cultural centre, or local community college. You can also look for free courses online and download helpful language apps for your phone (e.g. Duolingo). Ask for help from friends or family members that already speak the language. Wearing a traditional outfit from your heritage is an excellent way to show off your cultural pride and identity. Begin by asking your family if they already have a traditional outfit or costume that you can use, or research online where you might buy or rent one. If you are adept at sewing, you can look online for sewing patterns to make your own garments to wear. For example, you can rent or buy a kilt to wear if you’re from a Scottish background, particularly for an important event like a wedding If your family has history near where you live, ask them to take you to spots where they grew up and hung out. Seek out locations that reflect your cultural heritage if your family does not have personal heritage near where you live. If it is financial possible, plan a trip to the region where your ancestors are from to fully experience the roots of your heritage. It can cost a fair amount of money to visit your ancestral hometown, especially if it is far away. Plan months or even a year in advance to make the trip. After all of your hard work and research, the ultimate way to celebrate your family heritage is to throw a party. You should begin to plan the part at least a month in advance and send out invitations accordingly. Invite friends and family to share in the music, cuisine, dress, and spirit of your family heritage.

TL;DR in English: Try to learn the language. Dress in a traditional outfit. Take a field trip. Plan a party.

Remember that a hyperactive horse or a wild horse can be dangerous. Do not get too close to the horse before it is comfortable with your presence - doing so could ruin the trust you have already earned and may put your safety in jeopardy. Do not attempt to calm a frightened horse if you have not been properly trained to do so.  Be careful when approaching horses, as they can be skittish when approached from the behind. Remember that though their hind legs can be dangerous, their front legs are more so. Observe horses while they are in their paddock. Stand with the horse and talk to him, gently. See how the horse interacts with other humans and horses. Pay attention to the noises a horse makes, and what they signify. Pay close attention to its body language as well. If you are careful enough, it may tell you things that only "Horse Whisperers" can understand. Soon, you may understand the horse and it will understand you. The goal of this is establishing a kind of communication.  Watch for the horse to drop its head in submission. Good chewing and licking are a sign that the horse is ready to be submissive as well. Horses read body language and use physical language as well to express themselves. Horses will also read your body language to determine whether or not you are in charge. Little things like crowding your space or chewing on your shirt can indicate that a horse does not see you as a leader. It is important to teach your horse that you are in charge. You can use gentle pressure to correct a horse if he is in your personal space. For example, if your horse encroaches on your space when you are brushing him, then lean into his side until he moves back to where he was standing before. . Joining up with a horse is a specific training method developed by Monty Roberts that uses a round pen to confine a horse. While the horse is confined, the trainer stands in the center and using hand motions and/or the movement of a whip or lead line, makes the horse run in circles around the pen. After a little while, the...

TL;DR in English: Spend time around horses. Listen to horses. Teach your horse that you are the leader. Consider learning how to “join up” with a horse

If your equation is already in the right form, y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}, then simply pick the number in the "m" position (but if there is no number written in front of x then the slope is 1). That is your slope! Note that this number, m, is always multiplied by the variable, in this case an "x." Check the following examples:   y=2x+6{\displaystyle y=2x+6} Slope = 2    y=2−x{\displaystyle y=2-x} Slope = -1    y=38x−10{\displaystyle y={\frac {3}{8}}x-10}  Slope = 38{\displaystyle {\frac {3}{8}}} You can add, subtract, multiply, and more to isolate a variable, usually the "y." Just remember that, whatever you do to one side of the equal sign (like add 3) you must do to the other side as well. Your final goal is an equation similar to y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}. For example:  Find the slope of 2y−3=8x+7{\displaystyle 2y-3=8x+7}  Set to the form y=mx+b{\displaystyle y=mx+b}:  2y−3+3=8x+7+3{\displaystyle 2y-3+3=8x+7+3} 2y=8x+10{\displaystyle 2y=8x+10} 2y2=8x+102{\displaystyle {\frac {2y}{2}}={\frac {8x+10}{2}}} y=4x+5{\displaystyle y=4x+5}    Find the slope: Slope = M = 4

TL;DR in English: Find the number in front of the x, usually written as "m," to determine slope. Reorganize the equation so one variable is isolated if the slope isn't apparent.

There are very specific rules governing how you can broadcast music. To protect yourself from any sort of lawsuit, you'll want to get licensed to play music. You can use a licensing server like Live365.com or Loud-City to do this without having to get individual permission from each artist whose music you want to play. These services require that you pay a monthly fee based on your audience size. If you're starting a news/talk radio station rather than a music station, you'll need to create your own audio files instead of just relying on music playlists. Most computers come with some type of audio recording software, which you can use to record the audio you want your listeners to hear. Once you have your server and other apps configured, you're ready to connect to your audience. Open Edcast's main window and click “Connect.” This connects your server to your playing app. Open Winamp and begin playing your audio, whether music or talk. With your audio stream app open and connected to your server, you'll start streaming right away.

TL;DR in English: Get licensed. Record audio. Connect from your audio stream app. Play your audio.

Make the frosting. Get the layers ready. Frost the layers. Frost the assembled cake. Decorate the cake.

The dog will not learn if you do not have the right frame of understanding. A little research is in order before your first session, and it is always best to take an obedience class with your dog, and train as "homework". But for positive training, keep in mind:  Your mood will be picked up by your dog. If you go into training in a funk, or feeling frustrated or angry, likely your pup will feel this too. Although consistency is important, it may be better to skip training that day rather than get negative emotions into the mix. Keep training a positive activity. Be sure the dog masters #1 before going to #2. A success in one step does not necessarily mean the dog actually "gets it". You still need repetition to be sure the dog is consistent. Be sure the dog can really do the first step every time before going to the second. Keep sessions short and frequent. Dogs--and especially puppies--typically have short attention spans. Asking a dog to have prolonged periods of intense training may lead to frustration on everyone's parts. Do not get frustrated if the dog has some failures. When something new is being learned, there will always be failures. This is not a bad thing, just part of learning. If your dog picks up that he or she is disappointing you, and does not really know why, training becomes something bad.  Never punish a dog for obeying a command. If you give a command, you should never, ever give the dog any mixed signals that your signal was bad. If your dog was chasing a deer, and you command, "come" and the dog comes, praise him or her--do not rebuke him or her for chasing even though you may be upset and want to get across chasing deer is not OK. Your dog will only understand that if he or she comes, he or she is punished and may not come next time. As with any new command, you want to start with a location that’s familiar to your dog and free from distractions such as toys, small children, food, loud noises, or other animals. This allows your dog to focus as much as possible on you, the command, and...

TL;DR in English: Have the proper trainer mindset. Choose the right location. Leash your dog. Say “come” and begin taking quick steps backward. Consider using a hand signal as well. Move backward until your dog reaches you. Offer positive reinforcement. Add distractions and distance. Use the method while on walks. Issue the command without backing up. Consider group training sessions.

Possums are attracted to yards and homes where food is plentiful, so feeding them your scraps will keep them around. By removing food sources, you will make your property dramatically less appealing. You may think that you are doing a good deed, but possums fed by humans gradually lose their fear of humans and are more likely to become aggressive when food is not given to them. Keep the lid of your garbage cans closed by securing it with bungee cords, chains, ropes, or weights. You could also buy garbage cans with lids that have clamps to keep them on. Securing side handles to stakes driven into the ground will prevent the trash bins from tipping over. Even if your pets eat their food rapidly, the smell of the food residue may lure possums to your yard. If feeding inside is not possible, feed your pets outdoors in the late morning or middle of the afternoon, so that the food is not around in the early morning or late at night, which is when possums are most active. Remove all sources of food and water before dusk settles in, and keep pet food away from pet doors or other openings to the house. There are a wide variety of sources of food for possums. For example, do not use open compost piles and keep compost in secure containers, covered compost structures, or covered worm boxes. Other sources that need to be dealt with include:  Barbecue grills: Clean grills and grease traps after you use them. Fruit: Pick up fruit that drops from trees or bushes. Bird seed: Avoid laying out bird seed. If you do provide bird seed, try to lay some out in the late morning or mid-afternoon and only spread enough to feed the birds for that single day. Alternatively, fill bird feeders with seed and transfer them inside each night at dusk.

TL;DR in English: Do not intentionally provide food for the possums. Prevent possums from getting into your trash. Feed your pets indoors. Remove or secure any other sources of food.

Going the wrong way causes accidents, while parking in no parking zones can impact loading and packing operations. It may also mean that your car registration is called out over the intercom and you have to sheepishly leave a meeting to move your car.For parking lots with two entrances/exits, one is usually the entrance and one is the exit. Pay close attention to this, as various lots will have selected parking spots along the entrance. When parking in these spots, pull all the way in, with the direction of traffic.

TL;DR in English: Be particularly mindful of parking arrows designating traffic within the lot a certain direction and no parking zones.

When you come across nooks and crannies that are too tight for the vacuum, a gust of compressed air can send dirt and dust particles airborne, where they can then be suctioned up. Make sure you release the air in short bursts—if you hold down the nozzle for too long, it will just blow the dust around the inside of the cabin.  You can find canisters of compressed air at most supermarkets, drug stores, and auto parts retailers. Another alternative is to hook the hose of the vacuum up the outlet port and use it to gently blow the debris out of its hiding spot.

TL;DR in English: Use compressed air to dislodge difficult debris.

In a large mixing bowl, beat the powdered sugar, butter, cream, and vanilla on high, until the mixture becomes light and fluffy. If it seems too soft, add more powdered sugar until it becomes thicker and stiffer. Use a serrated knife to slice a thin layer from the top of each layer of the cake. Slicing off the slightly rounded tops that puffed up during the baking process will help the layers stack together neatly. Place the purple layer on the cake stand or plate that you'll be using to serve the cake. Use an offset spatula or icing knife to scoop a small amount of frosting onto the center of the cake. Spread it evenly across the surface of the purple layer, all the way to the edges. Add the blue cake to the stack and frost it using the same method. Repeat with the green, yellow, and orange layers, finishing with the red layer on top.  There's no need to use a scientific color order - create a rainbow using any color order you'd like. Be sure to conserve enough frosting to finish by frosting the entire cake, rather than using most of it up between layers. Scoop frosting onto the top of the cake and spread it evenly to the edges. Use more frosting to cover the sides of the cake. Be sure to use plenty, so that the layers beneath are invisible. The brightly-colored interior of the cake will remain a surprise until the first slice is cut. Finish the cake with rainbow sprinkles or nonpareils, or use a contrasting frosting color to pipe a message across its surface.

Discuss the risks to your baby with your doctor. Talk to your doctor about testing your baby in utero. Ask your doctor about medication for yourself. Have your baby checked after birth. Follow your doctor’s recommendations for treating your newborn.

One of the best ways to avoid become anxious during a long wait, is to do something else at the same time to occupy you. One of the most frustrating aspects of waiting can be the sense that you are losing valuable time, so you can tackle this by filling this time with another activity to help the time pass more quickly. This won't always be practical, depending on the situation, but here are some examples to keep in mind:  If you are being kept on-hold on the phone, use the time to answer some emails. If you are waiting for an appointment, read a book or newspaper, or play a game on your phone. If you are stuck in traffic, don't sit there and stew, put on some music, an audiobook, or a language tape and try to make the most of it. Finding ways to distract yourself is a tried and tested way of keeping impatience at bay and helping time pass. Research has suggested, however, that this technique can backfire if you are trying very hard to consciously distract yourself from the wait. Trying to force yourself not to feel anxious can prompt even greater anxiety.  Accept that you will have to wait and there is nothing you can do about it. Take a minute to relax before you find something that will occupy you for a while. There is evidence which suggests that waiting for something with other people can help the time pass quicker. For this to work, it's important that the people are engaging with each other, talking about what they are waiting for and sharing their excitement in a positive way. For example, a group of fans waiting to get a newly released video game might have a fun time in the queue together.  Being stuck in a long silent queue will not work in the same way. Equally, being stuck in a waiting room with people who are angry and impatient will not make the time go faster. Look for a more positive engagement with other people. If you have a very long wait for something, it can help to break it up into smaller chunks. Identifying short term goals and focussing on achieving these rather than the final end...

TL;DR in English: Occupy your time. Don't try too hard. Wait with other people. Break up a long wait.

Most achy backs caused by overwork or minor accidents (such as slip and falls) resolve on their own with a few days or so. As such, if the pain isn't severe, have some patience and the likelihood of your backache going away is actually pretty good with or without any kind of treatment.  Severe pain combined with numbness or tingling in the legs is often a sign of a serious back injury. It's important to seek professional help if your back pain also involves trouble urinating, fever or unintentional weight loss. If you develop back pain that won't go away after a few days of taking it easy, then schedule an appointment with your family physician. Your doctor will examine your back (spine) and ask questions about your family history, diet and lifestyle, and maybe even take X-rays or send you for a blood test (to rule out rheumatoid arthritis or a spinal infection). However, your family doctor is not a musculoskeletal or spinal specialist, so you may need a referral to another doctor with more specialized training. Your family doctor may recommend over-the-counter anti-inflammatories such as ibuprofen, or analgesics (pain killers) such as acetaminophen to help you cope with your backache. Consider seeing a specialist if your backache is not relieved by rest and medications. Mechanical low back pain is not considered a serious medical condition, although it can be very painful and debilitating, causing you to miss work or athletic activities. Typical causes include muscle strains, spinal joint sprains, spinal nerve irritation and spinal disc degeneration. However, medical specialists such as an orthopedist, neurologist or rheumatologist may be needed to rule out the most serious causes such as infection (osteomyelitis), cancer, osteoporosis, spinal fracture, herniated disc, kidney disease or rheumatoid arthritis.  X-rays, bone scans, MRI, CT scan and ultrasound are modalities that specialists may use to help diagnose your backache. The low back, or lumbar region, is more susceptible to injury and pain because it...

Fill in all holes and cracks with a concrete repair product like hydraulic cement, which is available at home improvement centers. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for application. Apply a solution of 2 tbsp. (14.8 ml) of bleach and 1 quart (0.95 liters) of warm water. Blot the affected area with a sponge or cloth saturated with the solution. Continue blotting until the stain disappears. Remove stains with a commercial grade mold and mildew remover. Commercial mold and mildew cleaners are available at most home improvement centers. Remove dust, dirt and oil from the stone basement walls prior to painting.  Remove loose dirt and debris with a coarse brush. Clean the walls by wiping them down with a damp cloth. Use a commercial degreasing product to remove stubborn grease or oil stains. Commercial grade degreasing solutions are available at most home improvement stores. Follow the manufacturer's directions for application. Utilize a pressure washer to remove dirt and debris. Pressure washers are available for rent at most home improvement stores. Exhibit caution when using a pressure washer to clean stone walls. To avoid damage to the stone basement, use the pressure washer on the lowest pressure setting and gradually increase the pressure. Move all furniture to the center of the basement so the painting areas are clear of any obstacles. Cover any areas of the walls you do not want painted, such as baseboards or doorways, with painter's tape.

This is the simplest choice and cuts out the calories found in many mixers. Because this option requires absolutely no other ingredients, you won’t need to worry about having a stocked refrigerator or pantry—just pour and enjoy!  There are a couple of common ways to enjoy vodka straight. You can drink it very quickly, as a shot. Or, you can put it over ice and sip it (this is called "on the rocks"). For even fewer calories, consider brands that market a lower calorie vodka. Skinny Girl Cocktails makes a few different reduced-calorie vodkas.  A 1 1⁄2  fl oz (44 mL) serving has 75.6 calories, compared to typical vodkas which have 96 calories per 1 1⁄2  fl oz (44 mL) serving on average. This can definitely add up! Do note that most reduced-calorie liquors achieve lower calories by reducing the proof. So, you would need to drink more to achieve the same effects as regular liquors. But, depending on the reason for your alcohol consumption, this may not matter to you. Flavor-infused vodkas are flavored vodkas without any extra calories. Many brands of vodka sell infused varieties, including Absolut, Belvedere, Burnett's, and Gray Goose, and it’s been a trend for years in the vodka world to come out with different flavors of infused vodkas.  Infused vodkas can make for a more flavorful and interesting experience when drinking vodka straight and can also eliminate the need for various traditional higher-calorie mixers like juice. Many of the infused vodkas sold in stores are infused with things you might expect, like lemon or berries or cucumber. But there are also exotic infusions like horseradish, bacon, and smoked salmon.  It’s also very easy to make your own infused vodka! You can use most types of fresh fruits and vegetables. Some people even infuse their vodka with coffee beans or candy, like toffee. Simply place your flavor in a canning jar and pour vodka inside. Wait a few days and then strain the liquid out and voila: flavored vodka!  You can make your own delicious watermelon-infused vodka. Fresh watermelon...

TL;DR in English: Drink straight vodka. Try flavor-infused vodkas. Combine vodka with low-calorie mixers.

Toxoplasmosis can be transmitted to the baby during pregnancy even if you don’t feel ill. The risks to your baby if she contracts it include:  Miscarriage and stillbirth Seizures Swollen liver and spleen Jaundice Eye infections and blindness Hearing loss which appears later in life Mental disabilities which appear later in life There are two ways that the doctor might suggest examining your baby.  An ultrasound. This procedure uses sound waves to produce an image of the baby in the uterus. It is not dangerous for the mother or the baby. It can show whether the child has signs of an infection such as excess fluid around the brain. However, it does not rule out the possibility that there could be an infection which didn’t exhibit symptoms at that time. Amniocentesis. This procedure involves inserting a needle through the wall of the mother’s abdomen and into the sac of fluid that surrounds the baby and extracting some of the fluid. The amniotic fluid can then be tested for toxoplasmosis. It has a 1% risk of causing a miscarriage. This test can confirm or exclude a toxoplasmosis infection, but if the child is infected, it won’t be able to say whether the child shows signs of having been harmed. What the doctor recommends may vary on whether the infection has spread to your baby or not.  If the infection has not spread to your baby, the doctor may recommend the antibiotic spiramycin. This medication may sometimes prevent the infection from being transmitted to your baby. If your baby is infected, the doctor will probably recommend that you alternate spiramycin with treatments of pyrimethamine (Daraprim) and sulfadiazine. These medications would likely only be prescribed after the 16th week. Pyrimethamine may prevent you from absorbing folic acid which is important for the baby’s development and cause bone marrow suppression and liver problems. Ask your doctor about side effects for you and your baby before you take them. If you were infected with toxoplasmosis during the pregnancy, your doctor will check the...

Whether you're writing clues, placing photos in special locations, or giving little gifts throughout your treasure hunt, you'll need to get all of the materials that you'll need to create your treasure hunt. Get these supplies when you're not with your partner so that they don't become suspicious.  Whether you're writing clues or giving small gifts, you'll need to prepare all of the steps to your treasure hunt. Consider numbering the each clue to make sure that you place the clues in order. Go to each of your treasure hunt locations to set up your clues. Tape your clues in place, use an object to weigh them down, hang them from a fence with ribbon, hang a banner from a tree, or have someone waiting there to hand out your clues to your partner. Each clue should be fairly easy to spot so that your partner doesn't have a problem finding it.  Consider getting your mutual friends involved to help deliver the clues to your partner in each location. Consider hiring people to help deliver clues to your partner. These people could be dressed up in costumes to really take your treasure hunt above and beyond. If you're setting up clues in stores, restaurants, etc., make sure to talk with the management to get their permission. Some of your clues may require the assistance of these stores, so make sure that they are willing to help. It's a good idea for you to do a test run of the treasure hunt so you'll know whether it works, if it's too easy or too difficult, and approximately how much time it takes to complete it. This will allow you to make any necessary adjustments before sending your partner on their romantic treasure hunt. This will also help you determine what time you should be waiting for them at their final location. Now that you've set everything up, get this romantic treasure hunt started. Give your partner their first clue, and let them begin the journey. Make sure that you are waiting it the final location by the time they get there.

After your talk, your wife may change her mind about wanting kids.  She might also be very disappointed. Either way, give her some space to process this information and don’t try to make her think the way you do about the issue.  Don’t bring up the issue again until she says she’s ready to talk. Continue to check in on her emotionally.  Ask her how she’s feeling and do random acts of kindness for her like surprising her with flowers or cooking her favorite meal. Though your body is your own, you should still make any permanent decisions with your spouse’s knowledge.  Discuss your desire to get a vasectomy with your wife before you make an appointment to do so. This will help foster trust and openness in your relationship. Perhaps you have children from outside of your marriage and your wife has none of her own.  In cases like this, the issue of children might be a dealbreaker. Talk to your wife to determine what you can do to keep your marriage together or whether it’s better to move forward separately.

TL;DR in English: Give her some space to think. Discuss a potential vasectomy or other sterilization options with her. Determine if this is a dealbreaker.

Sinking shrimp pellets or lobster bites should make up the majority of your crayfish’s diet. Pellet-type foods are high in protein and contain all the nutrients crayfish need to grow and develop healthy shells. Sprinkle the pellets around all of your pet’s favorite hiding spots to make it easy for it to get to them.  Crayfish can also have frozen aquarium foods occasionally, such as daphnia, bloodworms, and brine shrimp. Never feed your crayfish live or uncooked shrimp. Shrimp carry diseases that can be fatal to crays. Every now and then, cut some leaf lettuce, cabbage, zucchini, or cucumber into small strips and drop them to the bottom of the tank. Offerings like peas, carrots, and sweet potatoes are also okay. Crayfish love munching on plant matter, so don’t be surprised if they disappear in a hurry! It’s perfectly fine for crayfish to eat spoiled or decaying organic matter. In fact, treating your crayfish to veggies that are going bad is a great way to kill two birds with one stone. One or two shakes of shrimp pellets or a smattering of vegetables per day should be more than enough to keep your crayfish satisfied. Remove any uneaten portions of food soon after feeding your crayfish. Anything left sitting at the bottom of the tank will quickly decompose, dirtying the water and making more frequent changes necessary.  If you're caring for more than one crayfish (which isn’t recommended), it’s okay to double the amount of food you administer. Still, keep an eye out for leftovers and scoop them out whatever remnants you find quickly. Overeating can actually be bad for crayfish, as it causes their exoskeletons to become soft and weak.

TL;DR in English: Give your crayfish a small amount of shrimp pellets once a day. Use vegetables to supplement your crayfish’s diet. Avoid overfeeding your crayfish.

As you become more proficient in your field, avoid the temptation to confuse this with a total mastery of anything and everything related to it. Instead, take advantage of every opportunity to learn something new. Embrace every new fact, idea, and method that may improve your work performance.  Subscribe to newspapers, magazines, podcasts, blogs, and/or business book clubs that report on your trade or issues that it faces. Keep up to pace with evolving technology to spot new ways that it could streamline your duties. Value new workers who can teach something new, even when their position is lower than yours in the organization’s hierarchy. Resist the urge to avoid anything new just because it may seem difficult at first. Appreciate the difference between good stress and bad stress. Regard your brain’s needs as being equivalent to your body’s, in that it needs stress in order to grow (the same way you need the physical stress of doing curls in order to build your biceps). Exercise your brain accordingly while expanding your know-how. Expect a rejuvenated feeling of self-confidence and satisfaction upon completion of tough projects.  Recognize good stress from bad by the element of control. Stress becomes detrimental when you begin to feel helpless. Take a step back from your work whenever you feel like you have bitten off more than you can possibly chew. Reappraise the situation and formulate a new strategy if the old one isn’t working. Working in a positive team environment helps reduce bad stress by offering a greater number of fresh perspectives when the going gets rough. Don’t wait to be handed down directives and mission statements. Take an active role in shaping the organization from within. Present yourself as a key player in its future while demonstrating your investment in its success.  Establish regular meeting with your supervisor to discuss ways in which your position and/or department can be improved. Offer your services for new assignments or projects. Display both your willingness and...

The mushrooms should only take 1 to 2 weeks to fully grow, but they will develop a wavy edge around their cap when they are starting to go past their prime. They can still be eaten, but for best results, pick full-sized mushrooms just as they finish growing. Pin mushrooms are part of the first flush of growth and will become full size within 3 to 4 days. Avoid pulling the mushroom straight off since this could damage the mycelia underneath. A gentle twist and pull should be all it takes to remove the mushrooms. As an alternative, you can cut the base of the mushrooms with a pair of sanitized scissors. After 10 to 15 days, you may see another growth of mushrooms if you keep the bag moist and in a light place. They will tend to be just as large, if not larger, than the first mushrooms you collected. Mushrooms can return for multiple flushes every 2 or 3 weeks, but they will grow smaller each time. Unlike with other mushroom varieties, you can eat the stems of king oyster mushrooms. Leave them on for an easy, delicious meal.   Clean your mushrooms before adding them to any dish. King oyster mushrooms can be eaten raw or cooked.

Stir well to combine the roux paste with the liquid in the stockpot. If you are adding commercial curry cubes instead of homemade curry cubes, add them now. Break up the blocks into smaller portions. Temporarily remove the pot from the heat and add the cubes into the liquid, stirring well until completely melted. Add the peeled and chopped potato into the stockpot and stir to distribute it evenly. Continue to simmer the curry on low heat for 1 hour, or until the meat and potatoes become tender and the curry liquid is very thick. Use the full 1 hour if making beef or pork curry. If making chicken curry, you should only let it simmer for 30 to 45 minutes to prevent the chicken from overcooking and drying out. If you choose to add edamame, mix them in during the last 5 minutes of the cooking process.  You could add green peas to the curry if edamame is not available, or you could skip this part altogether. Make sure that the edamame have been removed from their shells before you add them into the curry. Ladle the curry into individual serving dishes. Serve it with a side of steamed white or brown rice. If desired, garnish with chopped fukujinzuke or rakkyou.  Traditionally, Japanese curry is served in one of two ways: you can put the curry in a sauce boat and serve it with a separate dish of rice on the side, or you can put the rice on the plate and cover half of it with curry.  Note that fukujinzuke is a sweet mixture of pickled vegetables and rakkyou are small pickled shallots. You can store extra curry by freezing it, if desired, but you should prepare the curry without potatoes if you intend to so do. Potatoes that are frozen and later thawed have a tendency to turn into unappetizing mush. Boil the potatoes separately and add them to the frozen curry after you reheat it. To freeze curry, ladle a serving's worth into a freezer-safe resealable plastic bag. Label the bag with its contents and the current date. Repeat with the rest of the curry, preparing a separate bag for each individual serving.

TL;DR in English: Transfer the roux into the base. Toss the potato in and simmer. Mix in the edamame. Serve. Finished.

Place the quail eggs in a small saucepan. Add enough cold water to cover the eggs by 1 inch (2.5 cm).  Handle the eggs gently to prevent them from cracking. The eggs should remain in a single layer with some space between them; do not crowd or stack them. While not strictly necessary, consider adding 1 tsp (5 ml) salt and 1 tsp (5 ml) white vinegar to the water. Doing so can help separate the egg from its shell, making the eggs easier to peel later. Place the saucepan on the stove over medium-high heat. Allow the water to reach a steady boil. As soon as the water reaches a boil, turn off the heat and cover the saucepan. Cook the eggs for an additional 5 minutes in the hot water. Leave the saucepan on the burner while the eggs finish boiling. The residual heat from the burner will help cook the eggs more thoroughly. Leaving the heat on could overcook the eggs, however. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the eggs into a bowl of ice water. Cool the eggs for 3 to 4 minutes.  Dunking the eggs in ice water stops the cooking process. It also makes the eggs easier to peel. If you don't have an ice bath, rinse each egg under cold, running water until the shells feel cool to the touch. Peel off the shell and enjoy the hard boiled quail eggs as desired.  To peel the eggs, lightly tap the shell on a hard surface to break it. Lift away the shell at its cracks. You can serve the eggs plain with a little salt or celery salt for flavor. Alternatively, you can use hard boiled quail eggs in other recipes, like tea marbled eggs, pickled eggs, and kwek kwek.

TL;DR in English: Cover the eggs with cold water. Bring the water to a boil. Turn off the heat and cook for 5 minutes. Submerge the eggs in cold water. Serve.

Any sized jar or bottle will be sufficient for your terrarium. A container with a large mouth will make it easier to work inside of. You want to make sure that the container can be properly sealed.  Options include: a candy jar with a heavy lid, a pasta jar, or a mason jar. Make sure the container is properly washed to remove any residue before using as a terrarium. The layer of pebbles at the bottom of the jar is to allow water to collect at the bottom and protect the plants from flooding. Add pebbles to a depth of about 1⁄2–2 inches (1.3–5.1 cm). It doesn’t matter what type of rock or pebbles you use. You can even use colorful pebbles from the pet store to make it more exciting. The charcoal layer is important to filter out impurities in the water. It helps keep the ecosystem clean and healthy by reducing the burden of bacteria and fungi. You don’t need a thick layer, just enough to cover the rock layer. Activated charcoal can be purchased at a local pet store. On top of the charcoal layer, you will add another layer of peat moss. Peat moss is a nutrient-rich soil that will help hold the water and nutrients necessary for the plants to grow. Peat moss can be obtained a local nursery. The final layer before adding the plants is a layer of potting soil. The plants will be able to root in this soil and get the water and nutrients they need from the combination of all of the layers below the potting soil.  Add enough soil for the plants to take root and have room for growth. A depth slightly higher than the pot the plant came in should be good. Most types of potting soil will be sufficient for this. Succulents and cacti require a special type of soil. Any plant you’d like to add will work in your terrarium, but small plants are recommended. Prepare your plants by removing them from their pots and breaking up the hard soil around their roots. Trim particularly long roots before planting. Dig a small well in the soil with a spoon and place the roots of the plant into the hole. Add a bit of soil on top and pack it...

TL;DR in English: Obtain a sealable, large glass jar. Fill the bottom with pebbles. Cover the pebbles with a layer of activated charcoal. Add a 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) layer of peat moss. Layer potting soil on top of the peat moss. Add small plants.

In many cases, doctors will simply recommend that you continue getting regular Pap smears to keep an eye on your condition. However, you may also need to have some further testing done. Keep in mind that a pap test is only a screening test, so your doctor can’t tell you what is wrong from this test alone. The colposcopy and biopsies are diagnostic tests that you will need to have done to find out what is going on. If your doctor recommends that precancerous cervical cells be removed, there are several treatment options available. These procedures may sound frightening and painful, but keep in mind that you will likely be given medication to numb your cervix and keep you comfortable.  Loop Electrosurgical Excision Procedure (LEEP) is a procedure in which your doctor cuts out abnormal tissue with a small electrified wire. This procedure is performed at your doctor's office using local anesthesia, and it only takes a few minutes. This is the most common treatment. Cryotherapy is another in-office procedure your doctor can perform by using a cold probe to freeze the abnormal cells. This procedure is very quick and may not require anesthesia. Cold knife conization is a procedure in which your doctor removes the abnormal cells using a scalpel. This procedure requires general anesthesia, so you will have to go to the hospital. Laser therapy is a procedure your doctor performs using a laser to remove the abnormal cells. Like cold knife conization, it is performed at a hospital using general anesthesia. If for any reason you believe that your doctor is not listening to your concerns or treating you effectively, or if you have any lingering questions about what your results mean, consider seeing another doctor. Don’t worry about offending the first doctor: medical professionals should understand and respect a patient’s wish to seek a second opinion. If your doctor thinks you have cancer, he or she will refer you to a specialist. That person can help you navigate the best treatment options for your particular case....

TL;DR in English: Find out if any treatment is necessary. Choose the right treatment for you. Get a second opinion. Find a specialist. Continue to get regular Pap smears.

The laser driver is the electrical component that controls the functioning of the laser. The diode will likely need soldered to the laser driver. There should be two leads coming from the diode for this purpose. Use a soldering gun to solder the leads to the driver at the positive and negative terminals. These terminals should be labeled on the driver and extend to the edge of the driver for soldering purposes. The driver should not be connected to any power source until soldering is complete. After the diode has been connected to the driver, you can connect the driver to a power source. Batteries are the go to choice since they make your laser portable. You will need at least AA batteries to produce a burning laser. The driver will have leads for a power supply. These leads will need to be connected to a battery pack or directly to the battery. If the leads need soldered, you will have to use a battery pack. You cannot solder onto a battery. You can buy a laser casing online to house the parts of your laser. Alternatively, you can make a laser casing from things lying around your house. Popular items used to make casings include Altos mint cans, bic lighters, and the casings of weaker laser pointers.

TL;DR in English: Connect the diode to a laser driver. Power the laser with batteries. Encase the laser.

" Though there are several ways to say "I love you" in Hindi, this phrase is one simplest and easiest to learn. As noted above, in Hindi, men and women say "I love you" slightly differently. As a general rule, most masculine verbs in Hindi end with "a", while most feminine verbs end with "ee". Thus, if you're a male, you'll use the masculine verb "kartha", rather than the feminine verb "karthee" in the phrase above. Note that this phrase works not just when speaking romantically to a female, but also when expressing your love to a male, like, for instance, a brother, son, friend, etc. If, as a native English speaker, you try to pronounce the phrase above as written,  your significant other will probably understand what you're trying to say, but you'll almost certainly mess up some small part of the pronunciation. For the best result, try to pronounce the phrase with proper Hindi pronunciation using the steps below:  Pronounce "main" as "may." In Hindi, when the "N" sound comes at the end of a word, it's usually nasal. This means that it's pronounced very lightly — almost imperceptibly — with the nose, so "main" becomes almost like "may." Pronounce "tumse" as "thumse," with "thum" sounding like "thoom" Pronounce "pyar" like it's spelled. Pronounce "kartha" with a light "th" sound. The "tha" syllable shouldn't sound quite like the English word "the." It's more of a cross between "the" and "dah". Pronounce "hoon" as "hoom/n." The same "silent n" rule applies here as in "main", but the sound is slightly more pronounced and sounds almost like an "M" sound. " If you've gotten your point across, you may hear your sweetheart say something like this phrase back to you. Congratulations! This means "I love you too!" In terms of pronunciation, the beginning of this phrase sounds almost like the word "maybe." The next part sounds like "op-say." The rest is basically identical to the way that women say "I love you" in Hindi — see below.

TL;DR in English: Say "Main tumse pyar kartha hoon. Practice your pronunciation. Listen for "Mai bhee aap se pyaar karthee hoon.

Take note of signs behind the patient's bed or on the patient's chart. Observe isolation restrictions, and make sure that, if the blood test requires fasting, that the patient fasted for the appropriate amount of time. Explain what you are about to do as you draw blood. Put on sanitary gloves. Verify the requisition is stamped with the patient's name, medical record number and date of birth. Make sure that the requisition and labels match exactly with the patient's identification. Confirm the patient's identity from the wristband or by asking the patient for a name and date of birth. You should have in front of you: blood collection tubes, a tourniquet, cotton balls, bandage or medical adhesive tape, and alcoholic wipes. Make sure that your blood tubes and blood culture bottles have not expired. The type of needle that you choose will depend on the patient's age, physical characteristics and the amount of blood that you plan to draw.

TL;DR in English: Observe any patient precautions. Introduce yourself to your patient. Wash and sanitize your hands. Review the patient's order. Assemble your supplies. Select the appropriate needle.

You'll also need to make sure that you have the appropriate types of storage containers. If you're preparing any type of meal in advance, you'll need to figure out how you're planning to store it safely.  Tupperware containers are a great tool when you're making meals in advance. Most keep foods fresh in the refrigerator and many are also freezer and microwave safe. Mason jars are a more artistic and unique way to store food. The screw-on lids provide an airtight seal. This is great for items like yogurt, oatmeal or cottage cheese. Aluminum foil or plastic wrap can help keep foods fresh in the refrigerator. They're not airtight and can leak so make sure to only use these on solid foods-like an egg sandwich. It's nice to be able to pull out a nutritious breakfast right from the fridge; however, you can't store pre-cooked food for days on end.  Choose the best option for your meal storage-refrigerator or freezer.  Many breakfasts that you'll make might be for the next morning; however, some recipes allow you to make multiple servings that can last you all week. Only make enough servings to last you for about five breakfasts. If you make more you'll need to freeze it. Only freeze items like egg sandwiches, chia seed puddings, smoothies (blend the frozen smoothie to make smooth again), or oatmeal. Items like yogurt won't freeze well. If you're choosing to store foods in the refrigerator, store them above any raw meat or seafood. All cooked foods should be stored near the top of the refrigerator where liquids or juices from raw foods cannot contaminate them. If you're short on time in the morning, even for a quick reheat in the microwave, consider bringing your breakfast to your office instead.  Keep your meal cool during transportation to work. This is especially important if you have a fairly long commute. You do not want your food getting too warm this increases the risk that harmful bacteria will grow. Use an insulated lunch bag to pack your breakfast. Place a freezer pack or frozen water bottle in your lunch...

TL;DR in English: Get the right type of storage containers. Choose between the refrigerator and freezer. Pack your breakfast safely.

The wax may set up sooner than that, but you will need to wait for the sand to dry as well. If you pull the candle out too soon, the sand may not stick properly. Use a spoon to loosen the sand around the candle, then carefully lift the candle out. This will prevent the candle from making a mess on your table when you use it. Depending on how hot your wax was, you may have a subtle sand texture, or a thick shell of sand. You can do this with a small spoon. Try doing some organic designs, such as swirls and loops. Depending on how long or short your wick is, you may need to trim it down. If it is too long, it will become a fire hazard. If th candle wobbles too much, turn the candle over and look at the bottom. If you see any lumps or bumps, you will need to smooth them out using a knife. Always place a candle stand under your candle to catch any drips or melted wax.

TL;DR in English: Let the candle sit overnight. Remove the candle from the sand carefully the next day. Gently brush the excess sand off using a soft-bristled brush. Consider carving designs into the sand to expose the candle underneath. Trim the wicks to about ¼ inch (0.63 centimeters), if necessary. Flatten the bottom of the candle, if necessary. Use your candle.

Since maternity clothes are only worn for a few months, your friends and family who have been pregnant likely have some like-new clothes you can borrow. Plus, most moms are more than willing to help out fellow moms, as they know how hard pregnancy is! Make sure to take care of the clothes and return them in good condition. Many well-known clothing stores also have maternity sections. You just need to ask where the section is, and you'll be able to find clothes in your favorite brands. Stores like Target, the Gap, Old Navy, and H&M all carry maternity clothing. While you'll need to dig a little at thrift stores, you're likely to find some good buys. Since most maternity clothes aren't worn all that long, they'll likely still be in good condition when they hit the thrift stores. Always try items on if you can, as sizes can vary considerably. If thrift stores aren't your thing, consider consignment stores. Many of these stores only take higher quality items, but since they're still used, you'll get them fairly cheaply.

TL;DR in English: Ask your friends and family if you can borrow clothes. Shop at your favorite stores. Visit thrift stores for cheap maternity clothes. Try consignment stores for curated fashion at lower prices.

Stretching is important before engaging in any type of physical activity. Martial arts require limber muscles and joints, as it's very easy to pull or strain a muscle if you're not careful. Spend at least 10 minutes stretching every major muscle group that you'll be using that day before moving on to any other warm up routines.  Try a rotating stomach stretch. Lie face-down, keep your hips on the ground, and lift yourself by straightening your arms before rotating one shoulder (then the other) towards the floor.  Stretch your hamstrings by planting one foot on the floor and one foot flat on a table or other elevated piece of furniture. Bend your knee and slowly lower your chest to that knee before switching sides. Another hamstring stretch involves planting your feet shoulder-width apart and bending over towards the floor without bending your knees. Hold the stretch for 10 seconds, and repeat the stretch three to five times to maximize your flexibility. Stretch your adductor by keeping one foot planted (with toes pointed forward) and bending the other leg (with toes pointed outwards, away from you). Lower your body down and slowly stretch your groin muscles before switching sides. Your joints will play a key role in your flexibility during Muay Thai. You'll need to be able to move fluidly, which can be difficult if your joints are stiff or locked up. By warming up your joints, you'll be more flexible and limber during your training sessions and any subsequent sparring matches.  Warm up your knees by squatting down, holding your knee caps, and rotating them in circles. Aim for 20 to 30 rotations, changing direction mid-way through. Work your ankles by standing on the ball of one foot with your heel elevated and rotating the ankle between 10 to 20 times. Then switch to the other side. Loosen up your hips by standing shoulder-width apart with your hands on your waist. Twist your hips in one direction 10 times, then switch to the other direction. Work your neck by moving your chin up and down, then side to side....

Purchase a toner for your hair. Apply the toner Leave the toner on for the time recommended on the bottle. Rinse the toner out, then follow up with a hydrating mask. Let your hair air dry and avoid heat styling it for 3 to 4 weeks. Keep your hair moisturized with weekly deep conditioning masks. Trim your hair every 5 to 6 weeks to remove split ends.

Start at the spot your tested earlier and position the tip of the chisel against the wall at a downward angle. Hit the back end with your hammer to drive the blade into the plaster and separate it from the brick. Continue chiseling one patch at a time, working your way inward from the edges.  Alternatively, you can take care of the demolition phase with only a crowbar if you don’t have a suitable masonry chisel. Use the rounded end for smashing and the pointed end for prying. There’s no need to be delicate here, but don’t get carried away, either. The idea is to use enough force to loosen the plaster without damaging the underlying brick. If you’re lucky, you’ll send large chunks of plaster raining down with each strike of your chisel. If not, you’ll need to give it a little encouragement. Wedge the tip of your crowbar or putty knife beneath the outer edge of stubborn sections and pull back forcefully to coax them free of the wall.  You’re more likely to remove the plaster in broad sheets using slow, controlled strokes than you are using quick, choppy ones. Keep a few large plastic tubs or buckets on standby to catch the plaster as it comes off of the wall. Once you’ve successfully removed plaster, give the entire surface a thorough scouring, applying moderate pressure with your brush. This will loosen any remaining debris that's too small to get at with your crowbar or putty knife. Work from top to bottom to avoid spreading more dust to sections you just brushed. If you notice your wire brush leaving scratches in the brick, one solution is to buff them out using a power drill fitted with a wire brush bit. Unlike the handheld brush, the rotary bit spins a circular direction, erasing conspicuous lines and scratches.

TL;DR in English: Use a hammer and masonry chisel to break up the bulk of the plaster. Pry off clinging sections using a crowbar or putty knife. Go over the freshly-exposed wall with a wire brush.

Beef ribs need to be cooked low and slow, and you can do it either in the oven or on the grill. Preheat to 225 degrees Fahrenheit (107 degrees Celsius). If you're cooking on the grill, you can smoke the ribs by adding applewood chips to the coals. Choose hickory, pecan, sweet maple or cherry. Wrap them well in several layers of aluminum foil, making sure there are no holes for the juice to leak out. You can place the wrapped ribs on a baking sheet if you're worried about getting juices in your oven. Wrap the ribs so that you'll be able to open the foil from the top to check whether they are done. You don't want to have to completely unwrap them, since you'll get drippings everywhere if you do so. Put them meat side down in the oven or on the grill and close the door or lid. Cook the ribs for 3 hours without disturbing them. During this time the juices will start to flow and the meat will become succulent and tender. Make sure the temperature stays constant at 225 degrees. If your oven tends to run hot or cold, you might need to adjust it during the cooking process. If you're cooking on a grill, monitor the temperature and adjust the gas as necessary. After about 3 hours, carefully unwrap the top of the foil and poke the ribs with a fork. If the meat easily falls off the bone, they're ready. If it resists, replace the foil and let the ribs cook for an additional 1/2 hour before checking again.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven or grill. Wrap the ribs. Start cooking the ribs. Check the ribs.

The first step is to shut off the water for the bathroom you’ll be working in. Locate the main line and turn it all the way off. Then, turn on the faucet in your tub to drain the lines. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the faucet and disconnect it from the water lines by unscrewing it. Remove the handles, overflow drain cover, and the drain cover on the bottom of the tub. If you have a showerhead, remove that as well.  You may need to pry off a plastic cover to gain access to the screws. You may be able to reuse some of these accessories, so keep them if you don’t want to buy new ones. You need to expose the studs in the wall in order to install a new bathtub, so you must remove the existing surround and the drywall behind it. Using a utility knife, cut through the drywall around the outside edge of the entire surround. Then, use a pry bar to pry the drywall and surround or tiles out of place. Be careful not to damage any pipes or wires!  Be sure to wear safety gear, including goggles and a dust mask, throughout this process. Work from the top of the surround down to the bottom. In some homes, you may be able to access the plumbing from the room next to the bathroom. In other cases, the plumbing may be situated in the floor under the tub. Most likely, you'll need to cut a hole in the wall or floor in order to access the plumbing. First, unscrew the tub drain and overflow from the P-trap underneath the tub. If your tub is acrylic or fiberglass, cut it into pieces with a jigsaw to make the removal process easier. If you want to try to keep the tub in one piece, use a jigsaw to cut away the tub flange that’s nailed to the studs, then tip up the tub and pull it out. You may need to slice through the caulk that connects the tub and floor before removing the tub. Use a utility knife to do so.

TL;DR in English: Turn off the water at the main line. Remove the accessories and disconnect the water lines. Remove the existing tub surround or tiles. Gain access to the plumbing. Take out the old tub.

For short haired cats, invest in a Zoom Groom type tool or a rubber hand mitt. The Zoom Groom is designed to mimic the motion of a cat being licked by another and cats find this very pleasant and indulgent. The Zoom Groom is a rubber grooming tool that draws out shed hair from the coat by gentle friction, much as a tongue pulls out the dead hair.  Many cats will purr ecstatically while they have a Zoom Groom spa treatment and this is a great way to keep a short-haired cat's coat from becoming knotted. It also has the advantage that the grooming tool is soft and so there are not hard metal teeth to catch against sore joints and hurt the older arthritic cat. Start using one in kittenhood and not only will the cat look forward to his or her daily grooming sessions but it will have a luxuriously glossy coat to boot. Invest in a well-made cat rake and long-tooth comb to properly help prevent matting. Rakes have short, sturdy bristles that are usually made of metal and are good for brushing dense, long hair.  Long-tooth combs allow you to comb deep into your long-haired cat's fur and comb through small mats before they get too large. Both items can be found in pet and retail stores. Use the comb first, gently combing through the coat much as you would comb through your hair to tease out any tangles. Grip the knot between finger and thumb and work above your fingers so that you are not tugging on the skin. Start at the top of the knot (the end furthest from the skin) and gently separate the knot until it begins to part. Then work down a little deeper. Sometimes it is helpful to use your fingertips rather than the comb, to open up the mat. Keep working gently until the tangle is removed and you can comb through. By grooming your cat every day you catch mats in the early stages, while they can still be untangled. Begin a regular brushing routine on your long-hair cat's coat before mats occur. Work with your long-hair or short-hair cat daily so he or she gets used to being brushed. If you get your cat as a kitten,...

TL;DR in English: Use the correct tools to groom a short-haired cat. Use the correct tools to groom a long-haired cat. Groom your cat routinely. Be sure to comb the undercoat as well as the top coat.

You may be able to use a purple or blue toning shampoo to remove any orange or yellow tones from your hair, but if you want platinum-blonde hair, then you need to mix the toner with 20 or 30 volume developer. Each brand of toner will be a little different, so read the instructions on the bottle to find out how to use it and mix it. to your hair with a clean tinting brush. You don’t need to section off your hair for this; just create horizontal or vertical parts using the handle of a tinting brush, then brush the toner on starting from the roots. If you are using a toning shampoo, you'll have to get your hair wet, then apply it just like you would normal shampoo. In most cases, this will be around 10 to 20 minutes. The toner will start to change color from white to purple. Do not be alarmed; this is perfectly normal.  If you are using a toning shampoo, then you'll probably only need to leave it on for about 5 to 10 minutes. Toner can stain, so it would be a good idea to cover your hair with a plastic shower cap. Bleaching is a damaging process on its own, but when combined with African American hair, it is even more damaging. A hydrating mask will help repair some of that damage by hydrating and nourishing your hair.  Avoid anything that contains sulfates. They won't affect the color of your hair, but they can make your hair feel more dry. You can use a natural mask too; it does not have to be store-bought. This is important. Bleaching and heat styling are damaging enough to hair already on their own, but if you combine them, you'll be damaging your tresses even more!

Place 1/2 cup (76 g) of medium pearl tapioca into a large bowl. Pour in four cups (1 liter) of cold water. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and let the tapioca sit out at room temperature for at least 12 hours. Avoid using quick-cooking or instant tapioca because these don't need to be soaked before cooking. Place a fine-mesh strainer over the sink. Drain the soaked tapioca pearls through the strainer and discard the liquid. Set the soaked tapioca pearls aside while you prepare the rest of the pudding. Get out a large saucepan and pour in four cups (1 liter) of whole milk, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of pure vanilla extract, 1/2 cup (100 g) of the sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon (2 g) of salt. Whisk the mixture and set it aside. Crack 1 egg into a large mixing bowl and add 3 egg yolks. Whisk the eggs with the yolks until they're combined. You can discard the three egg whites or save them to use in another recipe. Gradually whisk in the remaining 1/2 cup (100 g) of sugar. Continue to whisk the mixture until it becomes pale and very light in color. This should take about two minutes. Set the egg mixture aside. Place the saucepan that contains the sweetened milk mixture on the stove. Turn the heat to low and cook the milk until it just starts to bubble a little. Stir the mixture a few times as it heats. Turn the heat off once it starts to simmer. with the hot milk. Whisk the egg mixture while you slowly pour in a few tablespoons of the hot milk mixture. Keep whisking the eggs while adding a little of the hot milk mixture at a time until you've whisked in all of the milk mixture. You now have a basic custard. Tempering will prevent the eggs from cooking or scrambling when they're exposed to the hot milk. Spoon the custard back into the large saucepan. Stir in the soaked tapioca pearls until they're combined. If you think your eggs cooked a bit or would just like a smoother custard, consider placing a mesh strainer over the saucepan. Strain the custard directly into the pan and discard any solids. Turn the heat to low...

TL;DR in English: Soak the tapioca in cold water for at least 12 hours. Drain the tapioca. Whisk together the milk, vanilla, salt, and some of the sugar. Whisk together the eggs and yolks. Whisk the remaining sugar into the egg mixture. Heat the milk mixture. Temper the eggs Pour the custard into the saucepan and stir in the tapioca. Whisk and cook the tapioca for about 20 minutes. Refrigerate the pudding for at least two hours.

Most criminal conviction records are available to anyone who wants to search for them. Expunging your record will alter your record, removing or diminishing many offenses.  The details about how the state manages your criminal record after expungement will depend on your state. Regardless of where you live though, expungement allows you to legally answer that you do not have a criminal record. This is important for employment or rental applications. In some states like Michigan, the court removes records of the crime from public inspection.  In other states like California, you cannot erase a criminal record from public view. But, the disposition of the case will show that the court dismissed the case. An expunged conviction will often remain on your criminal record for certain purposes. This includes sex offender registration and immigration. Expunging” a criminal record is different from “sealing” it. When a court “seals” a criminal record, it removes documents that are ordinarily be available for public inspection.  As a consequence of expungement, the proceedings related to the case will be treated as though they never occurred. The state may ultimately destroy records. A sealed record still exists, but will not viewable through ordinary means.  Both record sealing and expungement allow you to declare that you do not have a conviction. The first step in getting a record sealed is to petition the law enforcement agency that arrested you, or the court. In California, for example, you must fill out a form and return it to the applicable law enforcement agency. If the law enforcement agency does not provide relief, you must petition the court.  In other states like Massachusetts, it is possible to seal your criminal record by mail. Or, you can petition the court directly.  The process of sealing a criminal record is different depending on the state. In most cases, a judge will make the decision at a hearing. To give yourself the best possible chance of getting the outcome you want, it's advisable to work with...

TL;DR in English: Know what expungement does. Consider sealing your record. Consider seeking a pardon. Consider a certificate of innocence. Get a Certificate of Rehabilitation. Understand who's eligible for expungement.

Start by figuring what letter sounds, or phonemes, the person already knows. That way, you can help fill in where they need help without rehashing what they do know. Most curriculums have an assessment you can do with students. However, if you need to make your own, make it based on the 6 phoneme tasks. Phoneme isolation is the ability to identify sounds in words. For instance, you might ask, "What is the first sound in 'finish'?" or "What is the last sound in 'past'?" Phoneme categorization is the ability to pick out the sounds that don't belong. For instance, you might ask, "Which word has a different vowel sound: bat, bag, or babe?" In this task, the student must find the same sound in different words. For example, you might ask, "What is the common sound in 'paper,' 'pitch,' and 'pipe'?" Phoneme blending requires students to join separate sounds together. You could say, "what word do these sounds spell? /s/ /k/ /u/ /p/ (scoop)?" Here, you see whether students can pull the sounds out of a word. It's the opposite of blending. You could ask, "How many phonemes are there in 'scoop'?" (/s/ /k/ /u/ /p/) In this task, you ask students to delete a sound from a word and see what is leftover. You might ask, "How would you say 'scoop' without the /s/ sound?"

TL;DR in English: Assess what the reader knows. Ask questions about phoneme isolation. Figure out what the student knows about phoneme categorization. Discuss phoneme identity. Ask about phoneme blending. Assess the student's phoneme segmentation. Discuss phoneme deletion.

In a mixing bowl, add your boiling sour mix and gelatin. Make sure to mix these ingredients right away before the sour mixture stops boiling. Use a spoon to stir the gelatin and boiling sour mix until the gelatin dissolves. While this normally takes around 2 minutes, it may take a bit longer or shorter depending, on the precise heat of your sour mix. Once the gelatin is dissolved, add both alcohols -- the whiskey and the liqueur -- to the sour mix/gelatin mixture. Stir the mixture together until everything is evenly incorporated.

Mortar and pestles are usually made in a matching set. The mortar is a small bowl and the pestle is a wand with a curve that's perfectly shaped to grind smoothly against the mortar. The instrument may be made from wood, stone or ceramic, and you'll want to choose your material based on your culinary needs and personal preferences.  Ceramic mortar and pestles are capable of grinding spices very finely, but they're also more fragile than other types.  Wood mortar and pestles are durable, but they're also slightly porous, and subject to stains. It's also possible for the flavor of one spice to stay present in the mortar between uses, tainting the flavor of the next spice you grind. Stone mortar and pestles also grind very finely, but unless they're conditioned properly, fine particles of stone can get ground into the spices. Do you want to crush large amounts of spices, seeds, and nuts, or only small amounts? You will find varying sizes from palm size to bowl size, and it may even be handy to have two different sizes if you have the space and budget for it. If you plan to grind a very large amount of spices, getting a spice grinder may be more suitable for your needs. A mortar and pestle is best for just enough spices to create whatever dish or spice mix you immediately want to use.

TL;DR in English: Pick the right material for your needs. Choose the size you want.

Put on the yukata as you would a robe. It's a good idea to flip the long sleeves back over your arms. That way, they won't be in your way when you wrap the garment around your body. Hold both sides of the fabric together in front of your body with one hand. With the other hand, feel for the center seam on the back. Adjust the yukata so the seam is centered with your back and the sides are even. Grasp the sides from the top corners and hold them straight in front of you. Then pull the yukata up until the bottom hem meets your ankles. Hold the hem at that height while you wrap the yukata around your body. While holding the fabric in each hand, spread out your arms as if you were about to give a hug. Then pull the right side of the garment to your left hip bone, and hold it in place with your right hand. Pull the left side tightly so it holds the right side in place. Then slide out your right hand as you bring the left side to your right hip bone. Be sure to fold the right side down first, then wrap the left side over it. A yukata (or any other kimono) is only wrapped right side over left when dressing a deceased person for burial.

TL;DR in English: Slide your arms through the sleeves. Find the back seam to center the garment. Adjust the length to ankle level. Bring the right side to your left hip. Cross the left side to your right hip.

Many people who are depressed start eating more or less than usual. They may also start making uncharacteristic choices about which foods to eat.  For example, if someone who usually cooks healthy meals starts living on a diet of convenience food, they may be depressed.  If you don’t see what your friend or family member eats on a regular basis, pay attention to changes in their weight, which can indicate over- or undereating. Someone who is depressed might sleep much more than usual or be unable to sleep. They might also feel constantly exhausted, no matter how much sleep they get.  Some indirect signs of this may be that they can't get to work or school on time, or if when you have plans in the evening they often leave early because they are tired. Depression can cause both physical and mental fatigue. Withdrawing from friends and family is a worrisome sign, even if the person still appears happy on the outside. If the person you’re concerned about has started spending significantly more time alone lately, it could be a red flag indicating depression. For example, a depressed person might spend an increasing amount of time locked in their bedroom, avoid going out with friends, and stop having lunch with coworkers. They may stop responding to your texts or calls and may turn you down if you try to make plans with them. Someone with depression may use substances or activities to numb their feelings. Keep an eye on your friend or family member and notice if any of their habits, such as drinking or shopping, are becoming excessive. This could indicate that they’re using the behavior as a coping strategy.  Alcohol, drugs, comfort food, and excessive internet use are a few of the most common ways people self-medicate their pain. Behavioral signs of drug or alcohol abuse include: neglecting responsibilities at school or work, unexplained financial issues, secretive or suspicious behavior, sudden change in friends, mood swings, sudden change in personality, lack of motivation, appearing "spaced out" or hyperactive,...

TL;DR in English: Notice whether the person’s eating habits have changed. Pay attention if they complain about being tired all the time. Look for changes in their social habits. Notice self-medicating behaviors.

The 4-digit SR remotes are unique models and need to reset before they can be used. Press and hold the standby button. Release the button as soon as your device and remote shut off. This should reset you remote and your device to synchronize them with one another. It can take anywhere from 5-60 seconds for the device and the remote to shut off. To check to see if the programming was successful, try entering some common commands for your device using the remote. Try changing channels, volume, or input to see if the essential buttons work. If the device is responsive to your commands, it is successfully synchronized with your remote.  Keep in mind that there are certain buttons on the Philips universal remote that won’t do anything for your device. The “record” button may work with a cable box or DVR device for example, but it may not do anything for a TV or receiver. Move any plants or obstructions out of the way to ensure that the signal for your remote will clearly reach your device. Depending on the version that you’re using, a single Philips universal remote can be programmed to work with 2-8 other devices, although it is usually less than 4. If the other device is near the one that you just programmed, unplug the one that you already programmed to prevent any mistakes.

You can rest your pinched nerve and still keep your blood pumping. Good blood and oxygen circulation and toned muscles can actually help heal the pinched nerve.  Daily activity should be done conservatively and only when it is comfortable for you. Try going swimming or for walks. These will help to move your muscles naturally while placing a minimal amount of stress on the joints and tendons where the pinched nerve is.  Inactivity can lead to a loss of muscle strength and cause the healing process of the pinched nerve to take much more time.  Keep good posture when exercising or resting. This will help to ease tension at the location of the pinched nerve. Maintaining a healthy weight can help prevent a pinched nerve. One of the underlying factors of a pinched nerve is a calcium deficiency. You should start eating more calcium rich foods such as dairy products like milk, cheese, and yogurt and leafy greens like spinach and kale. This can help the nerve and also improve your overall health.  You can also take calcium as a supplement. You can buy these from many health food stores, general stores, or pharmacies to take on a daily basis. Follow the directions or consult your doctor if you are unsure of how much calcium to take. Never take more than the recommended dose. Check labels of packaged foods to see if they are calcium fortified. Many brands offer a calcium enriched product in addition to their usual products. Potassium is a key ion involved in cell metabolism. Because it causes weaker connections between nerves, a lack of potassium can sometimes contribute to symptoms of a pinched nerve. Increasing potassium in the diet may help to restore proper balance to your nerve function and alleviate your symptoms.  Foods rich in potassium include apricots, bananas, avocados, and nuts. Drinking fluids like skim milk and orange juice can help to increase potassium absorption. Potassium supplements, similar to calcium supplements, can be taken on a regular basis in addition to a healthy diet. Talk to your doctor...

TL;DR in English: Perform low-impact exercise. Increase calcium intake. Eat more foods with potassium.

Consult your doctor or dermatologist before trying hydrogen peroxide for your acne. Many experts don't recommend using hydrogen peroxide for acne due to its irritating and drying potential. Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a chemical which can act as both a bleach and a disinfectant.  Our bodies actually produce small quantities of hydrogen peroxide to help attract white blood cells to areas where there’s an infection.  Because of its disinfectant abilities, hydrogen peroxide kills bacteria.  But it isn’t selective in what bacteria it kills, and our bodies contain a lot of necessary and healthy bacteria. You can use hydrogen peroxide to clear acne using one of two methods: in a cream, which contains a concentration of up to 1% hydrogen peroxide; and in “pure” liquid form, which should contain no more than a 3% concentration.  Hydrogen peroxide can come in concentrations higher than 3%, but those higher concentrations should never be used on your skin.  Hydrogen peroxide in a 3% concentration can almost always be found in a drugstore, near the first aid supplies.  If you are only able to find hydrogen peroxide in larger concentrations (normally 35%) you will need to dilute it with water before using it on your face.  To dilute a 35% concentration to 3%, you’ll need 11 parts of water for every one part of hydrogen peroxide.  If you use the cream version, follow the instructions on the package as to how to apply it to your face, and how often. If you have acne, this should include using a gentle soap and only your hands — not cloths or brushes.  Wash your face using warm water to help open the pores before cleansing and using the hydrogen peroxide.  Dry your face completely before applying the hydrogen peroxide.  Dry skin will absorb the hydrogen peroxide better than wet skin. Use a cotton pad, cotton ball or even a Q-Tip, soak it in the hydrogen peroxide, and move it over the affected areas of your skin.  Do not apply it to unaffected areas.  Leave it to soak into your skin for 5-7 minutes.  Try out a small amount...

TL;DR in English: Talk to your doctor first. Obtain the proper kind of hydrogen peroxide. Wash your face using your normal daily routine. Apply the hydrogen peroxide to your clean skin. Apply oil-free moisturizer.

A bad friend is only going to be interested in talking about themselves and won’t want to spend time listening to you. Pay attention to if they interrupt you often or respond by making the conversation about them and their experiences.  A good friend will ask you how you are and initiate a conversation about your life. Good friendships are reciprocal, meaning that you both get to share about yourselves and get encouragement from the other person. It may be that your friend doesn’t even realize they’re doing this! Try gently calling them out the next time this happens. You could say something like, “I really need to vent about my week but feel like you want to talk about other things,” and see how they respond. If you hesitate to share secrets with your friend because you’re worried they’ll gossip about you, that’s a sign that they aren’t trustworthy and something inside of you is telling you to be careful. Pay attention to how they act with your secrets—do they protect them or do they let things slip? A true friend will make time to hang out just because they like you. A bad friend will try to get something out of you when you spend time together. Watch out for these signs that a friend is using you:  Only wanting to hang out when they need a ride somewhere Constantly asking you to loan them money when you go out but never paying you back Asking you to lie to their parents and cover for them while they do something else Spending time with you only when you’re around other specific people Hanging out with you because all their other plans canceled Pressuring you to do things you’re not comfortable with While a good friend is honest, they’ll also support you and want to see you succeed. A bad friend will bring up past mistakes, make you doubt yourself, and be judgmental when you try to do something new or different. For example, if you tell your friend you want to try out for the basketball team and they say, “Do you really think you should? You’re not in very good shape and are too short,” that isn’t...

TL;DR in English: See how they respond when you talk about yourself or your problems. Question whether you trust your friend to keep a secret. Be wary of friends who use you or only hang out when it’s convenient. Expect encouragement from a true friend rather than judgment. Pay attention to your friend’s reaction when good things happen to you. Decide if you feel like a priority even when they have a significant other. Be wary of a friend who is over-involved in your personal life. Watch out for friends who try to control you with extravagant gifts. Observe how you feel after spending time with your friend.

Pour all of the ingredients from the bowl into the saucepan and return the pan to the heat. Whisk the mixture continuously as it heats up. Once the mixture has started boiling, reduce the heat down to a low-medium setting. Keep whisking the mixture as it starts to thicken. Remove the saucepan from the heat once it is thick. You will be able to tell that the mixture is thick enough when it sticks to the back of a metal spoon.
