The property survey consists of two parts: the illustration and the written report.  The illustration is basically a map of the area surveyed.  Place the survey illustration on a large flat surface, as property surveys can be quite large. Keep the written report on hand for easy reference. The legend is usually set in the corner of a survey illustration.  It contains icons which indicate important property attributes such as wells, borders, structures, or utility lines. If any elements of the legend are unclear or need explanation, contact your surveyor. The surveyor's certificate should be signed and dated with an embossed seal.  This certificate provides a legal foundation for the survey's validity.  If absent, the survey will not provide you with legal protection in a court of law.

TL;DR in English: Identify the survey parts. Familiarize yourself with the legend. Locate the surveyor's certificate.

Use your phone until your battery is entirely drained, and your phone automatically turns off. Calibrating your phone's battery may be helpful if your phone charges super fast and then drains super fast. After the phone automatically shuts down, turn it on again, and let it shut down automatically with the last bit of power in the battery. This will start charging your phone.  Do not turn on your phone after plugging it into the charger. If you have a battery display on your screen, you can see when you hit the 100% mark. Otherwise, your phone could take anywhere from 1 to 6 hours or more to fully charge. When your phone is fully charged, use the standard power button to turn it on. After fully charging your battery, make sure to restart your phone in order to fully apply all the new settings. Your battery should now be re-calibrated and may show improvements in performance and endurance.

TL;DR in English: Discharge your entire battery. Try turning on your phone again. Plug your phone into the charger. Wait until the phone is fully charged. Turn on your phone. Restart your phone. Unplug the charger.

For example, do some cleaning, pay your bills, and run errands, such as buying groceries you may want during recovery. Remember, you may be incapacitated for some time, so do what you can before the surgery to minimize the demands on you during recovery. Having your home in some order before you go in for surgery will help eliminate some of the emotional stress you may experience during recovery and will make you better prepared to have a good physical recovery. Don't be hesitant to change how you organize things for a time. Daily use items, such as dishes, should be moved to a higher or lower level than normal if you're going to have difficulty leaning over to reach things. Also, think about buying equipment that could make your life easier. For instance, buying a tool to grab items that are located high or low may be key for your recovery.  Sometimes after surgery, taking a shower has to be done very carefully. Place shampoo, soap, and other supplies at waist height before you go in for your surgery, so that you can reach them easily in the shower. Make sure to bring special items you may need while staying in the hospital, such as a CPAP machine and your regular medications. If you're having surgery that will affect your range of movement, mobility, or stability, make your home safe by removing obstacles or furniture that may block the entrance to the bathroom or kitchen. You also want to have a bed on the first floor, so that you don't have to climb stairs regularly.  Also make sure you will have easy access from your bed to a bathroom or portable commode. You don't want wires or rugs lying around that may trip you and cause you to fall and further injure yourself. Go to your favorite beauty salon and get a haircut, manicure, facial, or pedicure. Depending upon your type of surgery, you may not be able to do this for a few weeks after the operation, so getting it done beforehand will help you to feel like yourself as you recover. However, do not apply nail polish or fake nails to your toes or fingers, as...

TL;DR in English: Get your home in order before the surgery. Gather and move supplies that will be helpful during recovery. Rearrange your furniture to make recovery easier. Do personal grooming and pamper yourself before your surgery. Learn ways to relax during recovery.

This pertains to providing training and awareness to supervisors and managers to discreetly address any office relationships. They should be advised to monitor office relationships without infringing on any employee’s privacy.  The managers should be instructed to amicably and comfortably coach employees who get into a relationship with each other. If necessary, they should talk to the employees any negative impact their relationship has had on the office environment, on productivity, or on team morale. They should also be instructed to keep their ears open for gossip and any potentially career damaging behaviors in case the relationship breaks up. Where a breakup ends up becoming a sexual harassment claim, they are advised to immediately take action in consultation with HR. The company should have a well defined policy to handle any sexual harassment claims. The policy should detail how a sexual harassment claim should be handled. The policy should serve the purpose of educating employees about the behaviors that fall under harassment and emphasize the fact that the company has a zero tolerance policy regarding harassment. If the company finds it suitable, it may be a good idea to establish a separate workplace relationship policy. However, sometimes this is covered under the company's harassment policy.  The workplace relationship policy may state that all staff members are expected to behave in a professional manner and all personal interactions and relationships must be kept outside of the workplace. Furthermore, consequences of the relationship turning bitter must be clearly spelled out within this policy. Once you have a concrete policy that is being periodically reviewed, you should be prepared to handle an issue if it comes your way. There has to be a level of professionalism and decorum maintained throughout the office, relationship or no relationship. So when two employees are together you need to watch them closely for any inappropriate behaviors.  Things like hand holding, talking intimately,...

A healthy cat that vomits should not lose weight. If your cat is vomiting at least two or three times a week and losing weight, take them to the vet.  You should also take your cat to the vet if you notice the following symptoms of intestinal dysfunction:  Soft feces Feces with blood Feces with Mucus Diarrhea Look for any behaviors in your cat that are not normally present.  These behaviors could include many things, but if they seem to be out of character for your cat, take them to the veterinarian.  Check the following list for some examples of things to look for:  Lack of energy, tired, or lethargic. Quiet, withdrawn, or listless. Extremely vocal or hyperactive. Keep an eye on how often your cat is eating and drinking.  Also watch for the amount they are consuming, both in food and drink.  If your cat presents any abnormalities in their appetite or thirst, take them to your vet.  If your cat is drinking or eating much less, and losing weight, visit your vet. If you cat is drinking much more than usual, visit your vet. It's not always easy to identify what the problem might be.  Your veterinarian will be able to pinpoint the cause of your cat vomiting and help to discover if it is symptomatic of something more serious such as:  Pancreatitis Kidney disease Liver disease Inflammatory bowel disease Worms Infections

TL;DR in English: Watch for weight loss. Watch for a change in behavior. Watch for a change in eating or drinking habits. Go to your veterinarian if in doubt.

You can purchase or rent these attachments from your local tool or home improvement store. Read the directions fully before starting. Then, use the widest nozzle possible when cleaning your deck with a pressure washer to evenly disperse the water load. Deck scrubber attachments are specifically made for wider areas and generally work best. Narrow nozzles can cut into the flooring. Washing on a high setting or aiming the nozzle too close can damage the floor. Begin using the power washer in an area most people don't see, like where you normally place furniture. You can switch to a wider nozzle or lower setting as needed. Once you've turned on the nozzle, begin at two feet and move closer as needed. Don't get any closer than about 6–12 inches (15–30 cm), as any nearer can damage the flooring. Hold the nozzle at a slight angle to further lessen the pressure. Since the water coming out of the washer is under extremely high pressure, getting hit with a pressure washer can cause bruising or even serious injuries. If you or another person is hit in the eyes with a pressure washer sprayer, seek medical attention immediately. Start at one end of the deck and make your way to the other end while sweeping your nozzle back and forth. Move your nozzle with the grain of the wood. Keep the pressure washer moving continually as you walk to keep from overloading any area with pressure. Consult the pressure washer's manual (or inspect the machine) before beginning to find the right trigger. Pull the trigger to release pressure and drain any excess water.

TL;DR in English: Purchase or rent a deck scrubber attachment. Spray in an inconspicuous area first. Raise the nozzle about two feet above the deck. Aim the pressure washer away from you or other people at all times. Move the nozzle in wide, sweeping motions. When you've sprayed the entire deck, turn the machine off.

Not all coolers are created equal! Different brands use their own methods of insulation. A quality cooler from a brand like Yeti or Coleman is going to keep your ice cream from melting much more efficiently than a disposable styrofoam cooler. You definitely don’t want to add your ice cream to a warm cooler. Bring your cooler inside to let it cool down. If you need to, pour a bucket of ice into the cooler to chill it. When you’re ready to pack your ice cream, pour the ice out and refill the cooler with fresh ice. The items on the bottom of the cooler will stay the coldest. Items which don’t need to stay frozen can go on the top of the cooler. Don’t put anything that’s warm into the cooler with your ice cream, since you need it to stay as cold as possible! Use a large pan or a casserole dish to create a bigger block of ice. The bigger the piece of ice, the longer it will stay frozen — and the longer your ice cream will take to melt! Rock salt helps slow the melting rate of ice. In fact, rock salt was used for making old-fashioned ice cream! Scatter a handful or two of rock salt directly on top of the ice. Reusable thermal freezer bags are often used at grocery stores to keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Try placing your ice cream container into one of these bags, then place the bag into your cooler and surround it with ice. Empty space will cause the ice in your cooler to melt more quickly. If you need to, pack the cooler with towels to fill it up completely. The more you open your cooler, the faster the ice inside will melt. You may want to keep your drinks in a separate cooler, since people usually need to grab these more often. This might be hard if you’re in a place without any shade, but try to put the cooler behind a chair or under an umbrella to keep it cool.

TL;DR in English: Choose a high-quality insulated cooler. Chill the cooler before you fill it up. Put the ice cream on the bottom of your cooler. Freeze a large block of ice to slow the melting process. Add a layer of rock salt to your ice to slow down the melting process. Put the ice cream in freezer bags inside the cooler for added insulation. Fill any empty space in your cooler. Keep your cooler shut as much as possible. Try to keep your cooler out of direct sunlight.

This is the easiest way to make sure you have enough food for the party. Ask each guest to bring a dish to the party, preferably something you can eat without utensils and that won’t need refrigerating. Prepare a main dish yourself, as the host, and ask guests to bring sides, additional main dishes, and/or desserts. Make suggestions of dishes your guests can bring so that they’re less likely to all bring the same thing. If you don’t want to deal with the hassle of organizing a potluck, just order some food. Ask your guests for preferences on food, and if appropriate, consider asking them if they can pitch in for the cost. Pizza is a classic choice, since you don’t need cutlery and cleanup is relatively simple. If you’ve got the time and energy, prepare some food beforehand and bring it to the beach. Fruit is a simple, refreshing option; simply slice it up in advance, pack it up, and bring it along.  Finger foods are another great option for bringing to the beach, whether it’s fried chicken, skewers or wraps. You can also bring a barbecue and grill burgers or hot dogs at the beach. Tastes differ, and not everyone likes the same beverage. You can ask your guests what they like ahead of time to help you plan ahead. Otherwise, bring beer, chilled wine and at least one cocktail option. Your best bet for a cocktail is punch or sangria. They’re generally well-liked options and can be made in large batches. Recommend that guests bring their own alcohol if they have specific tastes and are willing to share. Since a beach party involves spending a good chunk of your day outside in the heat, you’ll need to keep yourself and your guests hydrated. Make sure you have plenty of water available, ideally bottled. Other non-alcoholic summer drinks include iced tea, lemonade, fruit juice and punches. It’s no fun for a vegetarian to show up to a barbecue with nothing to eat, and someone who’s gluten-sensitive won’t enjoy a pasta bar.

There are a few wax options for making candles, and beeswax, soy, and paraffin are among the most popular. Beeswax candles are a natural air purifier, but the wax has a high melting point and must be mixed half and half with an oil, such as palm, to lower the melting point.  Soy is a great vegetable wax option for candles and is readily available online or at craft stores. Paraffin wax is a traditional choice for candles, but paraffin is a petroleum product and can contribute to poor air quality. Another option is using leftover wax from other candles. Store the wax from candles you burn until you have enough to make a new candle. Two cups (227.5grams) of wax will yield an eight-ounce candle. Along with your wax, you will also need a wick, jar, double boiler, and a clean, dry towel. For a scented or colored candle, you’ll also need dye and fragrance.  Be sure to buy lead-free wicks. If your wick isn’t attached to a metal base (called a tab or sustainer), be sure to purchase one separately. For the jar, you can use a recycled candle jar, mason jar, cleaned out glass jar from the kitchen (like a salsa jar),  or even an old metal tin. You’ll also need something to stir the wax and secure the wick tab in place, such as a spoon, chopstick, or skewer. You can also use a clothespin or pencil to secure the wick in place while the candle sets. For scented candles, you can either use your favorite essential oils or fragrance oil. For colored candles, you can purchase dye chips, blocks, or liquid. Scents and dyes can be found at most craft stores or candle suppliers. Fill the bottom of the double boiler with about an inch (2.5 cm) of water. Place the top portion of the double boiler in position and put in your wax. Heat it over medium heat.  If your wax came in a large block, cut it into smaller chunks before melting it. Always use the double boiler method to melt wax, and never try to melt the wax faster at a higher temperature. Wax has a low flash point and can catch fire.  If you don’t have a double boiler, you can...

TL;DR in English: Choose a wax. Gather your supplies. Melt the wax. Secure the wick in place in the jar. Pour the candle. Let the candle cure.

Showing off something you already have is a great way to decorate without spending any money at all. If you have a piece that always makes you smile, like a special heirloom or a painting you love, put it somewhere you spend a lot of time, like your bedroom, kitchen, or living room. As you’re choosing other items for that room, try to think of what will go with the pieces you love the most.  For instance, if you hang up a painting in your living room, look for throw pillows or a rug that have some of the same colors as the painting. Get rid of items you don’t love and just display the decor that you really like. Your favorite items will become statement pieces, and you’ll appreciate what you do have more. If there’s a feature in your home that you really like, such as a mantle with interesting molding or a bookshelf where you keep your books, draw attention to it with bright colors. Your eye will automatically be drawn to the brighter shades, making that area really stand out.  For instance, you might put a bright glass vase on a shelf to add a pop of color, or you could hang a colorful painting on the wall above your fireplace to show it off. Look through the things you already have to find bright colors, or buy accent pieces on sale or at secondhand stores. For some reason, people find odd numbers of items more pleasing to look at than even-numbered groups. As you’re deciding where to place decor around your home, you can elevate the styling by sticking to odd-numbered arrangements.  For instance, you might try stacking 5 books together on a shelf, flanked by 2 heavy bookends, or you could use an odd number of picture frames if you create a gallery wall. You could also make a tableau out of different objects, such as a vase, a painting leaned against the wall, and a small bowl filled with pretty rocks. This is a simple trick that you can use to freshen up your decor without buying anything new! Look for seasonal home sales throughout the year, and when you find a good one, buy new sheets, pillowcases, and a...

In the UK, call 0300 123 2040 to report the attack to the National Fraud and Cyber Crime Reporting Centre. In Australia, submit an online report to the Cyber Security Center here: https://www.acsc.gov.au/incident.html. In Canada, contact your local police department. To investigate, police will need as much as information about the attack as possible. Tell them what you can about the attack. Be sure to include:  When the attack started and ended. If the attackers asked for a ransom and whether you paid it. If you were threatened before the attack. What protocols (UDP/DNS, TCP, or ICMP) were used in the attack. Any unusual patterns or observations during the attack. If you suspect there was a reason behind the attack, be sure to explain why in your report. If you were threatened beforehand or if the attackers asked for money, always include this information. Other reasons behind attacks might include:  You published something with a different ideology than the attacker. You have a competitor or rival. The attack was a distraction to try to steal data from your website or company. If the attackers asked for ransom, threatened you, or sent any message to you, copy the text of these messages. Either upload a copy of the original message or copy and paste the message into your report.  If you already paid a ransom to the attackers, give the investigators the attacker’s crypto currency wallet address or email address. If the agency decides to pursue a case against the attackers, you may be asked for hard copies of your evidence, including emails, payment transactions, or screenshots of the attack. Keep the original copies in a safe place. To encourage law enforcement to investigate the issue, be sure to state...

Take the free end of the string and wrap it around whatever you’re tying the knot to. Pull both sides of the string so that it’s tight against the object. Both ends of the string should point in the same direction and run parallel with each other. If you’re tying the knot to a fishing rod, you’d wrap the string around your spool. Hold the free end of the string or rope and cross it over the string or rope to form a loop at the very end of it. Pull the free end of the string up and through the loop and continue pulling it till it forms a knot. You should now have a small knot at the end of your string or rope. This is what is known as an overhand knot, and is one of the most common knots out there.

Use a spatula or wooden spoon to scrape the mixture out of the saucepan and onto a nonstick baking sheet, disposable pie pan, or similar surface. From here, you’ll use either your hands or an appropriately-shaped container to mold the rocket fuel into a usable form.  The mixture will be extremely hot when it first comes off of the burner, so avoid touching it until it’s had a chance to cool to a safe temperature. Make sure your new surface is completely free of debris. Any other particles your rocket fuel picks up may interfere with its ability to burn. While the mixture is still slightly warm, pull it apart and squeeze, pat, or roll it into multiple pieces. You might make small balls, flattened cakes, or “snakes,” depending on the exact size and design of your model rockets. Be sure to leave your gloves on while handling the fuel.  If you allow the rocket fuel to cool too much, it may begin to crumble or fail to hold its shape. Be sure to gather up any small pieces that happen to come loose and knead them back into the bulk of the mixture. These pieces will be highly flammable. Another option you have is to press the warm fuel directly to the back of one of your model rockets. You should only do this if you plan on launching the rocket right away, however, as the fuel will grow less combustible the longer it stays exposed to the air.  Loading up your fuel as soon as its finished cooking can also be a convenient solution if it’s gotten too crumbly to shape by hand. Once you’ve loaded, pack it down firmly using the end of a wooden dowel or a similar tool. Trapped air bubbles in the fuel could cause the rocket to explode when lit. If possible, choose a container with a locking lid, as one of these will provide the safest storage conditions. Double-check that the container is completely sealed before putting it away.  If you don’t have a suitable container handy, place the molded fuel to a large plastic zipper bag. Make sure you squeeze all the air out of the bag prior to sealing it. Never put your rocket fuel...

TL;DR in English: Transfer the solidified rocket fuel to a clean, flat surface. Shape the rocket fuel to the desired shape with gloved hands. Add the mixture directly into one of your rockets to ensure that it will fit. Store your molded rocket fuel in an airtight plastic container. Keep your rocket fuel stored at room temperature or cooler.

If you are required to use sources for your critical essay, you will need to do some research. See your assignment guidelines or ask your instructor if you have questions about what types of sources are appropriate for this assignment.  Books, articles from scholarly journals, magazine articles, newspaper articles, and trustworthy websites are some sources that you might consider using. Use your library’s databases rather than a general internet search. University libraries subscribe to many databases. These databases provide you with free access to articles and other resources that you cannot usually gain access to by using a search engine. It is important to use only trustworthy sources in an academic essay, otherwise you will damage your own credibility as an author. Using the library’s databases will also help to ensure that you are getting plenty of trustworthy sources for your paper. There are several things that you will need to consider in order to determine whether or not a source is trustworthy.   The author and his or her credentials. Choose sources that include an author’s name and that provide credentials for that author. The credentials should indicate something about why this person is qualified to speak as an authority on the subject. For example, an article about a medical condition will be more trustworthy if the author is a medical doctor. If you find a source where no author is listed or the author does not have any credentials, then this source may not be trustworthy.   Citations. Think about whether or not this author has adequately researched the topic. Check the author’s bibliography or works cited page. If the author has provided few or no sources, then this source may not be trustworthy.   Bias. Think about whether or not this author has presented an objective, well-reasoned account of the topic. How often does the tone indicate a strong preference for one side of the argument? How often does the argument dismiss or disregard the opposition’s concerns or valid arguments? If these are...

The plywood sheet should be 4 feet (1.2 m) by 8 feet (2.4 m) starting out. Use a pencil and ruler to mark the halfway point on the sheet of plywood. You can use either a hand saw or circular saw to slice through the sheet. You can ask at the lumber yard or home center where you bought the plywood if they can cut it for you. After you've cut the plywood sheet, cut it again to make this 4 feet (1.2 m) square. This square will form the basis for the floor of the whelping box. These strips will form the outside walls of the whelping box later in the process. Use your pencil and ruler to outline the size of the strips on the plywood before you cut the strips.

An upright bike more closely simulates riding a bicycle, while a recumbent bike lets you lean back and pedal with your legs in front of you. You can buy equipment that will raise the wheels off the floor or rollers that will turn under your wheels so you can ride in place. Get on it in the shoes you will wear during the workouts and see if it can be adjusted so you can ride it comfortably.

TL;DR in English: Try both an upright bike and a recumbent bike. Convert your regular bicycle to an exercise bike. Ensure that the bike is the right size.

It is just as important to know the price of gold when you’re selling as it is when you’re buying. Most newspapers report the price of gold daily, and you can get almost instantaneous updates online at several sites. Don’t sell the gold immediately unless the type of coin you have is doing very well. Check the site often and sell when the coin is doing well, or when you really need it.  Keep track of the price www.goldprice.org Even if the coin is doing particularly well, it is wise to wait years before selling certain coins. This is also widely reported. As mentioned, there tends to be an inverse relationship between that and the value of gold. It is best not to sell when the currency for your country is doing very well. Instead, wait for the currency to decline in value. This is where both research and intuition steps in. You want to sell your coins right before the value of gold starts going down, so that you walk away from the transaction with more money than you spent on the coins. Since timing the market does not always work, you should consider selling when the price of gold is at all time high, the demand is very high, the sentiment is generally bullish, and you are sitting at a sizeable profit. No matter what the reports say and how the market is doing, the choice to sell is ultimately up to you. It is an option to sell directly to a jeweler or pawn shop, but you should make a trip to either or both places no matter where you sell. Look for a reputable jeweler or pawn shop, take your gold coins to them, and ask to have an estimate to assess their value. Use that value as the base of what you charge, whether it is online, like on eBay, to an individual, or to a retailer. Go to three or four shops for estimations. Rogue buyers are those who come to town, set up in places like a hotel ballroom, and disappear without paying. These buyers will make false promises to buy for high prices, but will actually pay for less than what the gold is worth. For example, a piece of gold appraised for $250 may only get...

TL;DR in English: Keep track of gold value. Keep track of the value of your country's currency. Aim to sell your coins at the peak of demand. Take your gold coin to a jeweler or pawn shop. Do not sell to “rogue” buyers.

If you find yourself stuck with a problem (for instance, needing funds for a trip) and hoping for an “a-ha moment,” try exposing yourself to quick tidbits of information and then letting your mind relax. Read a paragraph or two from a half-dozen or more unrelated but engaging books, articles, or web pages, or listen to snippets from audiobooks or podcasts. Then, do a relaxing activity like taking a walk, gardening, or knitting for a half hour or so. Repeat the process as needed. Some people believe this method helps to jump-start brainstorming and can help you reach creative solutions faster. There’s no hard evidence for this, of course, but it can’t hurt to try! You might also call this technique “failing productively,” as it involves jumping right into trying something new, exploring your shortcomings in relation to your ideal result, and trying again. For instance, if you wanted to take up painting, you’d:  Grab some paints and a canvas and give painting your chosen landscape, still life, portrait, etc. your best shot. Accept that the finished result is almost certainly not the result you hope to achieve, and embrace this “failure” as an opportunity. Compare your actual result to the result you visualized beforehand. Practice some skill-building exercises, like taking a class, watching videos, or reading about painting techniques. Repeat the process over again until you feel you’ve reached the creative result you seek. For instance, you probably sign your name without thinking, but what if you try to sign it backwards? Or upside down? Or backwards and upside down? Practice challenging your creative mind until you can master all three.  Or, try engaging both sides of your brain by writing a simple question to yourself (e.g., “What are you thinking about?”) with your right hand (which is controlled by the left side of your brain). Then, immediately switch the pen to your left hand (controlled by the right side of your brain) and write the first answer that comes to you (e.g., “Eating an ice cream cone on a...

TL;DR in English: Use the “Kitchen Sink” technique to encourage inspiration. Engage in “deep practice” of a creative skill. Give simple tasks a challenging spin. Breathe through your left nostril to activate your brain’s right side. Scan your eyes back and forth to stimulate your whole brain. Laugh more and embrace positivity.

Frostnip is not the same as frostbite, but can precede it. Ice crystals form on the surface of the skin, rather than within the tissue as in frostbite. The blood vessels in your skin severely constrict, causing paleness or reddened areas. You may feel numbness, pain, or prickling or tingling of the area. However, the skin should respond normally to pressure without serious numbness and should retain its normal texture. Symptoms resolve with rewarming.  Frostnip may affect children more quickly than adults. Frostnip usually affects extremities such as the ears, nose, fingers, toes, and cheeks.  Frostnip signals that weather conditions are sufficient to cause frostbite with further exposure. Although it may not feel superficial, superficial frostbite is so named because the damage can be reversed with treatment. This condition is more serious than frostnip, and can be recognized by numbness, white or grayish-yellow skin with red blotches, aching or throbbing, and slightly hardened or swollen skin. There is less possibility of tissue loss with superficial frostbite. Some people with superficial frostbite may develop blisters with clear fluid within 24 hours. These are usually located at the ends or tips of the area affected and do not lead to tissue loss. Severe frostbite is the most dangerous form of frostbite. In cases of severe frostbite the skin looks pale and will feel waxy and unusually firm, and there is a loss of feeling/numbness of the affected area. In some cases, severely frostbitten tissue may have blisters on the skin that may have blood in them, or signs of gangrene (gray/black dead skin). The most severe form of frostbite extends into the muscle and bone and can lead to death of the skin and tissues. The risk of tissue loss is high with this form. If you are able to get to a hospital or emergency department within two hours, you should not try to treat frostbite yourself. If you are unable to get out of the cold, do not try rewarming the area if it is in danger of refreezing. The...

For optimal growth, clematis need six hours of sun each day so a sunny location is necessary. You'll get the best results if you keep the roots in shade and the foliage in sun - you can do this by using mulch, planting a low bush in front of it, or setting rocks on the soil around the plant. As for its roots, clematis prefer well-drained, moist soil with a pH that is neutral to slightly alkaline. Prep soil that is more on the acidic side by periodically “sweetening” it with wood ash or a little limestone. Clematis are climbing plants that naturally grow upward instead of growing out like most traditional plants. In order to grow upward at its maximum height, they need support to facilitate their growth.  Bird netting offers a nearly visible means of climbing support to clematis plants. Attach it to something in your garden with a staple or a fastener to prevent it from collapse over the years of the clematis plant's growth.  Consider installing garden structures, like arbors or pergolas, which offer beauty and regality to your garden while providing support for clematis to scale. Add some bird wire between the ground and the first rung of the arbor to help young clematis grab and climb up more easily.  Allow them to climb on a rock wall in your yard by planting them near there. Purchase some wire to help them gain access to being able to scale the wall over time.  A trellis is also a common choice to place in gardens and are often inexpensive, little hassle options for helping the clematis climb. Adding some netting over the trellis can make it even easier for the clematis to hold on. If you have the room, cultivars that grow to be 10-20 feet vines might be what you're looking for. For smaller gardens or potted plants, a more compact variety of clematis might be your preference. Standard clematis flowers blossom with a measurement of 5-6 inches across.  Clematis flowers come in smaller blossoms and larger blossoms in different colors like white, wine red, lavender, deep purple, and even yellow.  Because the...

TL;DR in English: Choose a planting location for the clematis. Purchase building support for your clematis. Select the right clematis for your garden.

Parents aren't so different from their kids all the time. Sometimes, the biggest thing that they don't like is the unknown. They may say no to a sleepover because they don't know what to expect, and picture ten kids having a crazy pillow fight and ruining all of their antique furniture. If you want to ease their worries that nothing horrible will go wrong, then the best thing you can do is to tell them exactly what the night would look like.  Here's what they'll need to know:  How many people are invited (example statement: “4 friends are coming over tonight.”) What you'll be eating (example statement: “We will be eating popcorn, chicken, and burgers.” What movies, if any, you'll watch (example statement: “We are gonna be watching Inside Out.”) Where your friends will be sleeping (example statement: “My friends will be sleeping in the bedroom 2 doors away from the kitchen.”) What time they'll arrive and when they'll leave (example statement: “My friends will enter at 4:30PM today and leave 2:15PM tomorrow.”) Another reason your parents may not want you to have a sleepover is because they can already picture themselves making a big dinner and having to clean up a big huge mess in the morning. They may also be worried about cleaning the house so it's presentable to your friends and their parents. Tell them that you'll do all of the cleaning before and after and that you'll make sure your friends won't make a big mess. Also, say that you'll do something simple and cheap like ordering pizza so they won't feel like they have to do a million things to keep your friends happy. Once you make it clear that your parents won't have to do a ton of the work, they'll be more likely to let the sleepover happen. They'll also be impressed that you're taking so much initiative and showing responsibility. If your parents haven't met the friends that you want to sleep over yet, then you should invite them by so that your parents see that they're nice, normal people who can be trusted to stay the night. Invite your friends to a...

TL;DR in English: Give them a game plan so they know what to expect. Tell them that you'll do all (or most) of the work. Have them meet your friends before they sleep over. Tell them that they can check in on you and your friends at any time.

When the wait becomes unbearable, time can feel like an enemy. However, it is the best resource you have to make the wait worthwhile: manage it wisely and invest it in fruitful activities that can help you reach your goal.   Although we have no control over the passing of time, we can organize it. Sticking to a timetable, making short-term plans and setting deadlines can help you manage your time and turn it into your ally. Not all of your time should be devoted to reaching your goal. Wise time management also calls for taking breaks. If you don’t allow yourself some leisure time, you could become frustrated or drain all your energy for no reason. . Patience is an art that takes skills and practice. It means realizing that time is unpredictable and we don’t get what we want when we want it. , as well as coming to terms with the fact that some things can be changed while others can’t.  Impatience stems from a feeling of impotence, of not being able to change the way things are. Realizing that there are things you can act upon and that the direction that your life takes is first of all determined by your decisions is important to have a more active approach and feel you're still in the driver’s seat. For example, in order to find a job as a journalist you might send out thousands of resumes without much luck. However, focusing on other things you can do to achieve your goal, like writing as a volunteer for your college bulletin or attending workshops, can turn your wait into a time actively invested in useful activities and make it more tolerable. Devoting some time during the week to physical exercise and relaxation techniques can help you release stress and increase your level of patience. Not making progress can have its benefits. It is natural for some periods of time to be devoted to rest instead of activity. Recharging you batteries is necessary to get back in full shape.  Just like how we get what we want can be unpredictable, inactivity does not always happen according to our plans. For example, if you...

Using a screwdriver or wrench, loosen up the screws or nuts securing the overhead garage tracks. Depending on which part of the tracks you need to adjust, this may mean the fasteners closest to the door, furthest from the door, or both. If you're trying to fix misaligned tracks, shift the tracks left or right until they are perpendicular with the vertical tracks. If you're trying to slow down the speed at which your garage door opens, simply raise the tracks up. When you're finished adjusting the tracks, the distance between them and the garage door should be .5 inches (1.3 cm), otherwise the door may stick. Using your fingers, tighten the nuts or screws holding the overhead tracks in place. When you can't tighten the fasteners by hand anymore, grab your screwdriver or wrench and turn the fasteners 2 or 3 more times. This will help you prevent unwanted stripping while tightening the fasteners to a safe and secure degree. Open and close the garage door multiple times to make sure it works as expected. In particular, check that the horizontal tracks can support the door while it is in the overhead position. While testing, do not stand underneath the door in case it malfunctions.

TL;DR in English: Use a screwdriver to loosen the fasteners holding the tracks in place. Move the tracks to the position you want them. Retighten the track fasteners. Test the door to make sure it works.

Once you’ve been pre-approved by the lender, you'll  know what you can spend. But there's no reason to share that information with the dealer. If you walk in saying you've been pre-approved for $15,000, you'll probably end up spending $15,000. Instead, try and do all the negotiation you can beforehand. If you think you’ll be tempted to show it to the salesmen, don’t come to the dealer with your pre-approval paperwork at all. If you are buying a car from the dealer, they may offer you financing. This financing usually has higher interest rates, but the dealership can offer you other incentives, such as rebates or no-interest periods, that may bring down the cost overall. Talk to the dealer, and get a quote for financing to see if it is right for you. Some dealerships will advertise that they finance people with no or bad credit. Typically these dealerships charge extremely high interest rates. It is better to see if a bank, credit union, or reputable dealer will give you a loan first. Before you buy a used car, ask the dealer if you can have a mechanic examine the car to make sure that there are no problems. Always get your own mechanic to perform this service. They should check out the car’s brakes, electrical system, compression, transmission, and other parts to prevent you from buying a defective car. Once you buy the car, make sure that you have the title transferred into your name. You should doublecheck that the VIN on the title is the same as it is on the car. The odometer on the car should also be the same or higher than it is listed on the title. Go through all of the proper paper work, and submit it to your state DMV. Be sure to get a new license plate for the car registered in your state of residence. You must have insurance on your new car. Contact a few insurance companies to find the best rate. If you had insurance on your old car, contact your insurance agency and tell them that you have bought a new car, so that they can adjust your insurance. This will ensure that your insurance will cover the new car.

You need to have a clear understanding of the job and its many specialties, so you can make sure you have matching skills. All animators bring characters or images to life on screen by creating a sense of motion, but they work in different fields.  Some animators create pictures that are used by motion picture studios and advertising agencies. Others create storyboards that are used by television and movie directors to plan their filming. These storyboards illustrate what will be seen on screen, such as where actors will stand. There are many different roles that people can play in the animation process. Animators create special effects that appear in movies, television shows, and video games. Animators also work as modelers, in computer animation, as painters, as game designers, and as technical directors. Consider freelancing. Sometimes animators freelance on the side in different areas of the field. Employers look for "hard" skills like the ability to use computer programs. They also consider "soft" skills, which are the personality traits that many animators need to have.  It can take many weeks to create a 10-second animation. If you don't have the patience for such an endeavor, this might not be the best field for you. Don't expect to learn the skills of animation in a couple of weeks, either. The field requires a great deal of technical training.  Animation is fun, and many animators grew up enjoying animated video games or movies. Imagine being asked to create a fight between two Transformers! If you enjoy animation as a consumer of media, this might be a good career field for you. Animators are perceptive and good observers of life and human nature. This is because they will be asked to recreate facial expressions and the way that people move. They need to have the ability to create story lines, not just characters. Animators need to work well with other people. It's rare for an animator's role not to involve teamwork. There are many, many steps in the entire animation process. The animation process...

Open up your rabbit’s hutch or enclosure to look around and smell it. Check for any areas that are particularly damp or any areas with waste in them that haven’t been cleaned recently. If the odor is coming from the rabbit’s hutch, you might not be cleaning it often enough. Clean out any soiled or dirtied hay in the rabbit’s hutch each morning and replace it with new hay for your rabbit to sit in.  If you can’t clean the hutch each day, you should be doing it every other day at the absolute minimum. If you don’t want to clean out the entire hutch, you could try litter train your rabbit so you only have to clean a small area or a litter tray. Your rabbit’s enclosure should smell like clean hay, which many find quite pleasant. If you smell anything stronger than this, it’s likely that you’ve found the source of the stink. Even if you’re cleaning out soiled hay each morning, some bad smelling substances can seep into the hutch itself. Clean the hutch thoroughly once each week by removing everything, scrubbing the hutch down with warm soapy water, misting lightly with white vinegar to disinfect it, and rinsing thoroughly with water. You should also clean your rabbit’s food bowl and its water bottle or bowl when you clean out the hutch weekly. If the hutch is still wet or damp when you put hay back into it, the hay may begin to rot and produce a bad smell. Let your rabbit run around freely or keep it in a small, temporary cage while the hutch dries completely.  You should be able to tell by touch if the hutch is still damp. Feel the inside for any dampness, leaving it to dry for longer if it is still wet. As long as you keep a few doors closed to prevent the rabbit from traveling too far, it should be perfectly content hopping around your home while its hutch dries.

TL;DR in English: Inspect the rabbit's hutch to determine if it's the source of the smell. Replace soiled hay each morning. Clean the whole hutch thoroughly once a week. Leave the hutch to dry in the sun for 3 to 4 hours.

If you're worried about your teen telling you the truth, it may be helpful to know the things teens lie about most often. You can't accuse your teen of lying about everything, but if you know what your teen is most likely to lie about, you can prevent future instances of that behavior. Some of the most common behaviors teens lie about include:  how teens spend their time what teens spend their allowance on seeing friends that their parents don't approve of which movies your teen sees and whom your teen goes with what types of clothing your teen wears outside the house drinking alcohol and/or doing drugs driving under the influence or riding in cars with a driver who was under the influence going to parties having adult supervision outside the house It's tough to know when your teen is lying, and any suspicions should be approached very cautiously. Being overly suspicious of your teen actually makes you statistically less likely to know what your teen is lying about. You may be more likely to recognize your teen is lying about something when you're suspicious, but you'll probably be wrong about what your teen lies about and why.  Accusing your teen of lying when he or she is actually telling the truth may make your teen less likely to be open and honest with you in the future. Try to evaluate your teen's behavior in the context of his or her past patterns of behavior. If your teen is getting into trouble (or has a history of doing so), that teen may be more likely to lie to you. Remember that no teen is lying about everything all the time. You may have your suspicions, but you need to recognize that your teen does tell the truth as well, and you need to be fair in your assessment of his/her honesty. Some parents may not be comfortable trying to catch their teens in a lie. However, if you have your suspicions and you want to put a stop to it, it may be worth considering checking out your teen's story. This can help establish a baseline of behavior so you'll know what to expect going forward.  If your teen...

TL;DR in English: Know the most frequent lies. Approach the situation with caution. Plan out ways to check if your teen is lying. Convey your suspicions.

Adverbs often end with the suffix -ly and modify verbs or adjectives. Adverbs are sometimes used at the beginning of sentences to explain how something happened or felt, especially in informal writing. Common examples include generally, usually, and fortunately.  For example, here is a sentence that begins with an introductory adverb: “Unsurprisingly, the one day I forgot my umbrella was the day it rained.” Adverbs such as when and while usually introduce a restrictive modifier and should usually not be set off by commas. Commas should be used to offset introductory adverbs that modify the entire sentence, not ones that modify a single element of the sentence (such as the verb). One-word introductory elements include words such as no, yes, and well, and are separated by a comma from the main clause when they begin a sentence.  Here is an example of an introductory word beginning a sentence: “No, I cannot come over this morning.” Here is an example of well as an introductory word: “Well, I’d love a second piece of cake, but I’m on a diet.”  Why can also be used as an introductory word, but be careful: it should only be set off by a comma when it is not essential to the meaning of the sentence. The comma in the sentence “Why, that's amazing!” is correct. However, you would not use a comma in this sentence: “Why couldn’t you come over this morning?” Introductory transitions help guide the reader from one sentence to another, and they should be set off from the sentence by a comma. Common introductory transitions include However, Furthermore, Nevertheless, and Meanwhile. Introductory transitions may also take the form of phrases, such as In addition and Despite this ___. Set them apart with commas too. These phrases add information to a sentence, but do not have a subject and verb that are separate from the subject and verb in the main clause of the sentence.  If the introduction is less than 3 words, a comma is considered optional. Common introductory phrases include participial phrases (phrases that function as...

A fun-loving party girl will be discriminating about which parties she chooses to go to. Choose ones you know will be packed. A near-empty house party is no fun. Try to hit up the popular clubs in your city on a regular basis. Squads, posses, or "girl gangs" are all the rage right now. While you and your friends may not be celebrities, you can always form a hip group of your own. Going out with a large group of other girls makes socializing much easier. When you're with a bunch of friends, you'll always have someone to talk to. Are you self-conscious about getting on the dance floor? Just ask some of your girlfriends to join you! If you're going to a party, don't arrive when the invitation says it starts. Ten to twenty minutes later than that is the minimum for looking cool, but holding off for an hour or more may be more appropriate. Regardless, you don't want to be one of the only people there.  Peak hours for nightclubs are usually around 11 pm or midnight until closing. This is the window you'll want to arrive during if you want to have a wild time. If you have trouble getting into trendy clubs at peak hours, showing up early may be for the best. That way, when the place fills up you'll already be there and ready to have fun. all night. If you can't dance, watch the others and copy them. You'll get the hang of it soon enough. Just let the music move you and keep your movements minimal until you feel more confident. If you're already a great dancer, weave lots of dancing into your party nights out. Dancing is liberating, energizing and a good excuse to work around the floor and connect with many people. Dance with your friends or anyone on the floor you'd like to dance with. Most party girls are known for their heavy drinking, but this doesn't mean you have to follow suit. If you're drinking, drink just enough to have fun and be a little more outgoing. Don't drink so much that your speech slurs or you have problems staying upright in your heels.

. Both the buyer and the seller should hire their own appraiser to determine the value of the house. The seller receives an appraisal in order to select a price for the home, and the buyer gets an appraisal to confirm that the selling price is fair. You can find an appraiser in the following ways:  look in the Yellow Pages ask for a referral from a mortgage company, bank, or realtor contact your state’s licensing agency Both parties should work closely with a real estate attorney. A real estate attorney can draft all of the necessary paperwork. The attorney can also protect your interests. For example, the buyer can include a protection clause just in case the property has to be sold in response to a life changing event, job relocation or loss, divorce or death. You can get a referral to a real estate attorney by contacting your local or state bar association. Bar associations are organizations made up of attorneys, and they often provide referrals to their members or can help you find an attorney. A Residential Mortgage Loan Originator can give you advice on how to manage owner financing in a way that is transparent and compliant with regulations. When you owner finance a home, you are essentially providing the buyer a loan until they complete their payments on the home. Since you want your agreement to be clear and binding, it's good to work with a mortgage professional.  Your RMLO can help ensure that your owner financing documents are compliant with the Safe Act and Dodd Frank Act. Make sure your RMLO is properly licensed by your state.

Don't underestimate the way clothing can frame or emphasize your natural physical features! Fashion can have an insurmountable impact on the way you (and your legs!) are physically perceived by others. Generally speaking, you want to consider the occasion and your personal body type when picking out clothing. Your legs will be most directly framed by pants or shorts, but shoes and the rest of your outfit will have an effect.  The quality of your legs regardless, dressing in short-shorts in below-freezing weather has never been a good look for anyone. A great deal could be written about a choice of legwear. If you're looking to emphasize the quality of your legs specifically however, tight-fitting pants (such as yoga pants) are a great choice, as they help tighten the look of your legs. If it's appropriately sunny outside, you might want to wear a fashionable set of shorts. Try to avoid boxy or baggy clothing in this case. Baggy jeans and pants will do nothing for the look of your legs. Shoes can have a significant effect on the way your legs are perceived. Ankle and knee-high boots have a shortening effect on legs, so while they may look good, they're a better match for longer legs. If your legs are on the shorter side, you'll have the best luck with shorter shoes, slippers, heels and sandals.

You can use a colander to rinse them. Put the sorted beans into a bowl filled with two or three inches (5.1 or 7.6 cm) of water. The water should be at room temperature. Allow the beans to soak overnight. If you can’t soak them overnight, soak them for at least eight hours. Drain the bowl of all the water when the beans are finished soaking and rinse them in cool water one more time.  Soak the beans in the refrigerator if your kitchen gets very warm. Soaking the beans helps to remove indigestible sugars. You can also use a pressure cooker to cook the beans. Add four cups (946.4 mL) of water to the one cup (236.6 g) of beans. The water should rise an inch or two (2.5 or 5.1 cm) over the beans. If you choose to cook more than one cup of beans, then add four cups of water for each additional cup of beans. Reduce the heat when the water begins to boil. Let the beans simmer for about 45 minutes. If you have a pressure cooker, allow the beans to cook for three to five minutes. You can serve the beans as a side, or you can mix them into a salad, soup, or casserole. If serving as a side, add a small amount of butter and/or pepper to the beans for flavor. Fresh baby lima beans can last up to one week if stored in a refrigerated area, but cooked beans will only be good for one day even when refrigerated.

TL;DR in English: Sort and rinse the beans. Soak the beans overnight. Put the beans in a saucepan. Bring the water to a boil. Serve the cooked beans.

Sugar-free gum helps to stimulate saliva production. This will help stop your mouth from drying out. A dry mouth often leads to bad breath because bacteria responsible for the foul odor aren’t washed away. Gum can also help remove food particles from the crevasses of your teeth. Sugar-free gum isn’t a substitute for proper oral hygiene. Don’t stop brushing your teeth and flossing. It is possible to get natural gums made from peppermint and other herbs, which will help mask the smell of bad breath in addition to removing matter from your teeth. These herbs won’t clean your teeth, but they will counter your bad breath with a strong scent. This works in the short term, but shouldn’t be viewed as a long-term solution. You’ll also want to beware of debris from these herbs in your teeth. You don’t want to trade bad breath for large chunks of parsley in your teeth. Nuts have a powerful aroma and the abrasive texture of them will help remove any residual food particles left on your teeth, tongue or gums. Dill and fennel seeds mask odors magnificently. Anise is a licorice-flavored seed that actually has antiseptic properties.

TL;DR in English: Chew some sugar-free gum. Chew herbs like mint, parsley, basil, or wintergreen. Chew nuts and seeds.

See if it needs more sugar or water. Everyone likes their Kool-Aid to taste a little different. Kool-Aid is delicious poured over ice. Fill up a glass with ice and pour in the Kool-Aid. Store your leftover Kool-Aid in the refrigerator for later use.

TL;DR in English: Taste test your Kool-Aid. Enjoy over ice.

Most pet stores sell ammonia test kits. These kits check the total ammonia levels (which includes both ammonia and ammonium). The problem with this is that the tests do not distinguish between the two distinct ammonia levels, meaning you may not be able to accurately assess how toxic the water is.  As a general rule, if your tank is established (meaning it's been inhabited and has active bacterial colonies), you should not be able to detect any ammonia with a standard kit. If these tests indicate a measurable level of ammonia and you know there is already a healthy bacterial colony and a lack of organic matter, it's most likely a problem with your filter. Your tank's pH can directly affect the ammonia levels in the water. By measuring the pH levels on a regular basis, you'll help ensure that ammonia levels are not toxic.  The pH of a body of water affects how much ammonia is ionized versus how much remains un-ionized. You'll still need to treat the water beyond adjusting the pH, as acidifying the water will not actually break down the ammonia that's already present. Depending on when you test your tank's water, you might be getting an artificially-high reading. The best time to test the water would probably be right before feeding, as new food has not yet broken down in the water.  Ammonia levels reach their peak approximately 90 minutes after your fish have been fed. Testing the water shortly after your fish have eaten (and are producing waste) can give you an inaccurately-high reading of ammonia levels.

TL;DR in English: Buy a standard test kit. Measure the water's pH. Test the water at the right time.

It is important that physical therapists be warm, friendly individuals with strong communication skills, as the job requires constantly dealing with sick or injured patients. As a physical therapist, you will work with many people who suffer emotionally as well as physically because of their pain, and you will need to have a lot of empathy to help them heal and understand their injuries. It is important to also be patient, as many patients do not see immediate results and may require years of therapy. Since physical therapy requires working with your hands, it is important to have strong manual dexterity. Physical therapists should also have strong enough arms to apply resistance to patients' limbs and help lift them up if necessary. You will need to be comfortable using your hands to help your patients do physical exercises as well as giving them manual therapy. Manual dexterity can be improved by activities like writing, sewing, knitting, and using a stress ball to strengthen hand muscles. Most physical therapists spent much of their time on their feet, not sitting in a chair. As a physical therapist, you'll need to move around to work with your patients and help them complete a variety of exercises. Therefore, you shouldn't be the type of person who sits down every chance he gets and should actually enjoy physical activity. You should also be physically fit not only to be able to work with your patients more easily, but also to inspire confidence in your patients. Your patients will want to work with someone who cares about his own physical fitness, too. You should not only know how to be compassionate toward your patients, but you should be "a people person," and should be comfortable interacting with your patients, making them laugh, and keeping up a good rapport as you work together. You should also be able to speak openly to your patients about their treatment programs and listen to their concerns about the therapy.

TL;DR in English:


Alternate your style. Avoid sharing information about your consuming habits. Keep your inner most thoughts to yourself. Mark your creations and your personal style and thoughts as your own. Create a social circle independent of your copycat. Put some distance between you and your copycat friend.

Before you change your behavior, you need to understand your current situation. Take a baseline, or keep a count, of how many cigarettes you smoke in a day. You can use a calendar, notebook, journal, poster board, or anything that helps you track it consistently. As you track your consumption, try to notice if there are any patterns. For example, you might notice that on Wednesdays you tend to smoke 5-8 more cigarettes than the rest of the week. What is going on on Wednesdays? Maybe you have a stressful weekly meeting on Wednesdays that wind you up, and you smoke to relieve the anxiety. Set a goal once you have tracked how many cigarettes you typically smoke in a day. Since quitting cold turkey (cutting out smoking completely) is bound to be stressful, difficult, and may lead to a higher rate of relapse, start by limiting your smoking. You may try going from a pack a day, 20 cigarettes, to 15 a day. Only you can decide what is the right amount to cut down to, but a good start may be to cut down by a quarter. For example, if you smoke 16 a day, go to 12. Or go from 12 to 8. If you are going to allow yourself five cigarettes a day, decide when you will smoke them. This removes the option of smoking a cigarette when you are feeling bored or have nothing else to do. Instead, you have designated smoking times to keep you accountable. For example, you might smoke one in the morning, two at work, one in the evening, and one before bed. It may be hard to give up the instant gratification of smoking, especially if there's no immediate reward for cutting back. You need to create a system of immediate rewards and consequences. So, if you smoke 2 more cigarettes in a day than you had allowed yourself to, there should be a consequence. Choose consequences that will benefit you in some way. For example, for every additional cigarette you smoke, tell yourself you have to do 10 minutes of stretching, put a dollar in a jar, clean the bathroom, or journal for an extra 10 minutes. While this is supposed to serve somewhat as a...

TL;DR in English: Track your cigarette use. Decide on a daily allowance. Set up a smoking schedule. Set up consequences. Set up rewards. Keep tracking your smoking habits.

Spend some one-on-one time with each person in the team. Let your team members know that you see them as more than just faceless members of a larger whole. Check in with each team member as often as possible. At the beginning, you should try to touch base at least once a day. Address any concerns each member might have when you talk with them. Pay attention to the way members of your team naturally behave and cooperate. You'll likely notice that some team members play a more crucial, direct role in work performed by the group. Look at attitude before looking at ability. Teammates who are eager to support the goals of the group are more likely to work harder. Those who disagree with the team's objectives may still work hard, but you should watch those who are particularly vocal about their dissatisfaction for signs of sabotage. As the team leader, it is your job to find out what each team member can contribute to the group's efforts. Determine what each members' strengths are and assign tasks accordingly. Take note of each member's area of expertise. You may not be able to use that skill set for the task currently in front of you, but if you need those talents later, you will know where to look. Allow some of the other members to take minor leadership roles within the team when certain projects or tasks are being worked on. As the leader of the team, knowing when and how to divvy up responsibilities is a skill you will need to master.  Delegate tasks to individuals based on who is most likely to complete a specific task in a timely and accurate manner. Assign firm deadlines for specific tasks. Follow up with the individual you've assigned the task to throughout the process. When your support is needed, lend it. When you assign a specific task to someone, you need to hold that person to it. The members of your team need to know that you fully expect them to take care of the responsibilities assigned to them.  Encourage accountability at the start of a task by giving team members everything they need to complete...

TL;DR in English: Treat each team member as an individual. Spot key members early on. Notice individual strengths. Divide the workload. Keep the members accountable. Thank and reward team members appropriately. Coach the team members. Encourage creative thinking.

Puppies explore their new world through their mouths. So they will probably bite you during their exploration or when they are playing. Puppies don’t know that their teeth can feel like razors piercing our skin when they gnaw on us, which is why it’s important to train your puppy not to bite at an early age. Puppies don’t know how hard their biting can be. When you are playing with your puppy, allow it to mouth on you if it is doing so already. When it bites too hard, yelp or let out a loud ‘ow!’ Doing this will startle your puppy and make it stop biting you.   Ignore your puppy for 10 to 20 seconds after it has bitten you, or walk away for 10 to 20 seconds. Then go back and resume playing. When it bites too hard again, say “ow!” again and ignore it for another 20 or so seconds. Doing this teaches your puppy that gentle play continues, while painful play stops. Once your puppy has stopped biting you very hard, you can begin to teach it to not bite even moderately hard. Repeat the steps listed above when it bites you moderately hard. Continue this process until your puppy only mouths on you gently or doesn’t mouth on you at all. If you puppy likes to ambush your feet while you walk, carry a toy in your pocket. When you puppy begins nipping at your foot, freeze, take out the toy and wave it so that it gets his attention. When your puppy has started chewing on the toy, begin walking again. Eventually your puppy will learn that chewing on toys is better than chewing on feet.  If you don’t have a toy, freeze when your puppy begins nipping at your feet. When it stops, praise it and go get it a toy. When you see your puppy chewing on something like a shoe, furniture, or sock, take the object away from him and scold him verbally. Direct its attention to something it can chew on, such as a favorite toy, and praise it when it begins chewing on that instead. Doing this teaches your puppy what objects to chew on and what not to. If your puppy continues to chew on things it shouldn’t be, you can use a taste deterrent,...

TL;DR in English: Know that your puppy doesn’t intend to hurt you when she bites. Teach your puppy to be gentle. Stop your puppy from nipping at your feet. Stop your puppy from chewing on things it shouldn’t be chewing on.

Stand up and walk around the house as a study has shown that a 10-minute walk can increase your energy for two hours. Being active brings oxygen to your brain and muscles. Be careful not to overdo it because if you waste too much energy doing something active you may become tired as your body tries to recover. Be active when you feel tired. Get some oxygen into your body and your heart rate up to give you the jolt of energy when you feel yourself starting to fade. If you have had a long day or simply feel too tired to stay up, take a nap to recharge. It’s best to nap for five or 25 minutes. If you take it close to your usual bedtime, then you won’t feel tired like you normally would. Ride this energy to stay up late. If you have been watching your tv, mobile device, or computer for many hours, your eyes will need a break. The glare from the screen could be causing your eyes to strain making you fatigued or sleepy. Take breaks to look away from the screen and let your eyes relax. Look out the window, take a walk around the house, and adjust the brightness of your screen to make sure you don’t strain your eyes trying to stay awake. Avoid sugary foods because, while sugar may give you an immediate boost of energy, it may also make you tired immediately afterward. Try snacks like celery sticks with peanut butter, fresh fruit, nuts, or baby carrots. Let your friends or cousins know that you are trying to stay up late and perhaps they may be willing to text or chat over the phone to help you. If you feel yourself fading, ask for their help and talk to them. Talk to them about anything. As long as you have a conversation your mind will be engaged and forced to keep you awake. It may be easy to come up with conversation topics beforehand to make sure that you will always have something to talk about. For example, you can ask your friends to talk about a tv show, your parents about vacation ideas, or family members about what’s happening in school. Bright light can wake you up and keep you alert. Only have bright...

TL;DR in English: Move around and be active. Take a nap. Give your eyes a break. Eat a healthy snack. Talk to someone. Brighten the room. Use a lot of water. Have a drink with some caffeine. Get a buddy system.

If you find your friend is copying the way you dress or other aspects of your personal style, switch things up a little bit. This might show your friend that it’s okay to embrace different styles. Maybe she'll even experiment with different styles on her own. If your friend is wearing the same fashions and hairstyles as you, don't give them the information she needs to continue copying you. This might push her in the direction of developing her own style.  Suggests places and styles that might encourage her to develop her own style. Be vague about where you get your stuff. Don't go shopping with your friend. If your friend hasn’t really taken other cues from you, hold back a little bit. Don’t share everything that you think and feel. Especially don’t share the things that you think she might try to make her own. This will hopefully encourage her to think for herself and to embrace her own uniqueness and individuality. Some of the worst copycats will try to steal your creations and make others think that they are her own. There are a number of things you can do to avoid this problem.  If your copycat is the one who steals your writing and art, sign it and date it. If your friend copies your room styles and belongings, be creative. If you want to, buy stuff and wear stuff they won’t be able to find. But don’t let this go too far, you don’t want to lose your own unique style. Announce ideas or anything you’ve produced on social media so that everyone knows who is responsible for them. Part of the problem you have with your copycat might be the fact that you share the same social circle. This could lead to a series of problems, including your copycat wanting to date the same people as you or steal your crush. But if you create a social circle independent of your copycat, it will be much harder for her to imitate you and steal your show.  Rely on friends and family from different parts of your town or community to introduce you to a different social group. If your copycat and you go to the same school, find some...

Consult a physician or health professional. Select an emulsified oil. Take the oil daily until the symptoms resolve. Drink the oil mixed with juice, water, or milk. Try gargling with diluted oregano oil to ease a sore throat or sinus infection.

Tell your doctor or healthcare provider about any symptoms you have, including pain, bruising, swelling, or buckling of the knee. The doctor may test your knee’s range of motion by moving your leg back and forth. They may also take X-rays or an MRI of your knee.  Explain to your doctor what caused the injury as well as how long the pain has lasted. Knee hyperextension can cause injuries and tears to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Severe ligament injuries may need surgery. In most cases, your doctor will recommend a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), such as ibuprofen (such as Motrin or Advil) or naproxen (Aleve) to relieve the pain. These are available over the counter. In more severe cases, the doctor may prescribe you pain medication. Take the medication according to your doctor’s instructions. If you have a torn ACL or PCL, your doctor may recommend surgery to restore your torn ligament. This surgery will repair the ligament by grafting a sample of tissue from yourself or a donor into your injured knee. It can take between 2-9 months to recover from ACL or PCL surgery. At the beginning, you may need to walk on crutches. Once the pain has reduced and you are able to move more easily, your doctor may give you a referral to a physical therapist to begin a rehabilitation program. This program will help you regain flexibility and extension in your knee without injuring yourself further. For minor hyperextension issues, you may not need physical therapy. Your doctor may just recommend low-impact exercises for a few weeks.

TL;DR in English: Visit a doctor to examine the injury. Take an anti-inflammatory pain medication. Undergo knee surgery if you have a ligament tear. Get a referral to a physical therapist if necessary.

When you take a road trip, it is tempting to eat along the interstate in an effort to “make good time.” Rather than rushing to your destination, slow down and enjoy the small communities and towns you are passing through. One of the best ways to experience a town or city is through its local eateries.   Stop for breakfast, lunch, or dinner at a locally owned restaurant. Grab snacks and a coffee at the farmer’s market. Pick out restaurants you would like to try before leaving on the trip or ask locals for recommendations. Your route to and from your final destination will be dotted with wonderful natural landmarks, quirky tourist traps, and unique historical sites. Don’t be afraid to deviate from your route to take in the region’s beauty and lore. Take a brief hiatus from the care whenever you see an attraction that peaks your interest.  Use the stops as restroom breaks. Potential stops include local museums, factories, flea markets, roadside attractions, national parks, sports facilities, and university or college campuses. After spending endless miles cooped up in a car, road trippers can get a little stiff and stir crazy. Instead of pressing on, set aside time to stretch your legs and breathe fresh air. You and your passengers can stop at parks, playgrounds, waterfalls, caves, lakes, beaches, mountains, or deserts.  Have a picnic at the park Take a thirty minute walk in the woods Play frisbee at the playground Dip your toes into an ocean, lake, river, or stream Take a guided tour through a cave or cavern Admire the beauty of the desert or the power of a waterfall

TL;DR in English: Eat at local restaurants and markets. Visit local attractions. Take nature breaks.

All musicians should keep one ear focused on what they’re playing and the other ear focused on the band. One part of listening is centered around keeping an eye out for signals or cues your bandmates might physically give off. Even while you are soloing, it will help you to occasionally glance up and check in with your band. A guitarist that overplays and doesn’t consider the rest of the band is a bad guitarist. It’s important not to overstep your solo and keep the mood in a unified spirit.

TL;DR in English: Listen to your bandmates.

Set up your two equations in standard format and look at the coefficients of each of your variables. You are looking for the circumstance where the numbers are the same but the signs are different.  Consider this example:  x−3y=5{\displaystyle x-3y=5} 2x+3y=19{\displaystyle 2x+3y=19}   By examination, you should see that the first equation contains the term −3y{\displaystyle -3y}, while the second equation contains the term 3y{\displaystyle 3y}. These two terms are opposites of each other. Working across the system from left to right, add each term of the first equation to the corresponding term of the second equation. It may be helpful simply to draw a long horizontal line across the bottom of the two equations and add downward, as you would with any ordinary addition problem. The above example works out as follows:  x−3y=5{\displaystyle x-3y=5} 2x+3y=19{\displaystyle 2x+3y=19} ------------------------- 3x=24{\displaystyle 3x=24} Because you were adding, and one of your terms contained opposites, then one of the variables should be eliminated from the problem. Rewrite what you have left as a single equation.  In the example above, the y{\displaystyle y} variable was eliminated. The remaining equation is 3x=24{\displaystyle 3x=24}. Because one of the variables gets eliminated in this method, as with the prior subtraction method, some textbooks will refer to this as the “elimination” method of solving a system of equations. What you have left should be a fairly simple, one-variable equation. Solve it by dividing both sides of the equation by the coefficient. In the example above, divide both sides of 3x=24{\displaystyle 3x=24} by 3. You will be left with the solution x=8{\displaystyle x=8}. Take that solution, in our example x=8, and substitute it in place of x{\displaystyle x} in either one of the original equations. Choose the first equation:   x−3y=5{\displaystyle x-3y=5}          (original equation)  8−3y=5{\displaystyle 8-3y=5}          (insert value of x) -3y={\displaystyle 3y=}-3{\displaystyle 3}      ...

TL;DR in English: Examine the equations in standard format. Add corresponding terms. Write out the result. Solve for the remaining variable. Solve the second variable. Check your two solutions. Write out your solution.

Oregano oil supplements are not recommended for everyone. Before beginning a regimen of oregano oil to treat internal symptoms, consult a health professional to make sure you do not have any contraindications (such as pregnancy or anemia) for use of the oil. A health professional should also be able to suggest a recommended dose for attempts to use oregano oil as a natural treatment for whatever condition you are trying to address. For the duration of your treatment, 600 mg of emulsified oil in capsule form per day should be the maximum dose necessary (for short-term treatment) to relieve intestinal symptoms and reduce inflammation.  Smaller doses of 100 to 150 mg per day in capsule form should be sufficient for less serious symptoms or problems, such as yeast imbalances, general inflammation, sinus problems, and upset stomachs. Oregano oil needs to be taken consistently to build up the effect and reduce symptoms. To give yourself the best chance at benefiting from the healing properties of oregano oil, do not skip doses. Doses can be spread throughout the day. Because oregano oil can be very intense and even dangerous in its undiluted form, take capsule supplements or mix undiluted drops with a small glass of juice, water, or milk before consuming.  Oregano oil (3-6 drops) mixed with juice can reportedly aid a sore throat, cold, or sinus condition.  When purchasing a supplement, look for a concentration of carvacrol of 70% or greater. Mix two or three drops of oil into orange juice or warm water and gargle several times, morning and night, to relieve inflammation and fight infection.
