Spend time with him (cautiously.) Tell him directly that you want to be friends. Don't pretend that nothing's changed. Tell other people that you're just friends. Show that you still care about him.

To begin your journey into the world of cliques, figure out the members of your child’s clique.  Ask your child, “Who is in your group of friends?”  Like any good detective, you should try to get as much information as possible. Other questions you might have include:  Is there a clique leader? How long have you been participating in the clique? What do you and your clique do together? Cliques can seem downright awful. The word might conjure images of icy queen bees and power struggles. However,  keep in mind that it’s normal and natural for children to show preferences for friends or certain types of people. Cliques can help your child develop a sense of self-worth and self-confidence.  In a clique of friends, your child may feel protected and accepted for who they are. Understand that your child wants to feel accepted, and a clique can provide that for them. If your child only spends time with their clique, their ability to make new friends might suffer. That means they won’t be exposed to a diversity of people, plus they may feel more pressure to engage in cliquish behavior.  To help your child branch out and make some new, fun friends, encourage them to sign up for a couple of extracurriculars. Think sports, theater, music, and clubs. Community-sponsored athletic programs are a fun and economical option. Chat with your local community activity board or recreational department for more information about children’s programs in your area. Cliques – for good or bad – tend to impose conformity on their members. The members might act the same, dress the same, and engage in the same activities. Your child is a unique individual who’s probably pretty awesome just as they are. In order to help your child maintain their sense of self, provide positive feedback to your child on a regular basis.  For instance, you could say to your child:  “I like you just the way you are.” ”It’s okay for you to do things differently than other people do.”  ”I like when you are kind and polite to others.” Whether your child is the...

TL;DR in English: Find out more about the clique. Don’t automatically reject your child being in a clique. Help your child extend their peer group. Support your child’s individuality. Encourage your child to use their leadership skills for good. Keep an eye out for bullying. Discourage your child from participating if necessary.

An individual's experiences, both recent and distant, can also make one more likely to attempt suicide.  The death of a loved one, the loss of a job, a serious illness (especially involving chronic pain), bullying, and other highly stressful life events can act as triggers for suicide and put someone at greater risk.  Of particular concern is whether a person has tried to commit suicide before. Someone who has previously attempted suicide is likely to try again. In fact, one-fifth of the people who die by suicide have made a previous attempt.  A history of physical or sexual abuse also puts one at a higher risk of suicide. The presence of an underlying mental health disorder, such as bipolar disorder, major depression, or schizophrenia, or a history of such disorders, is a major risk factor. In fact, 90 percent of suicide cases are linked to depression or another mental illness, and 66 percent of people who think seriously about suicide have a mental disorder of some kind.  Disorders characterized by anxiety or agitation (e.g., post-traumatic stress disorder) and poor impulse-control (e.g., bipolar disorder, conduct disorders, substance disorders) are the most likely risk factors for making a suicide plan and a suicide attempt. The symptoms of mental illnesses that raise the risk of suicide include intense anxiety, panic attacks, desperation, hopelessness, feeling that one is a burden, loss of interest and pleasure, and delusional thinking.  While the statistical relationship between suicide and depression is a complicated one, the majority of people who die from a suicide attempt have major depression.  People with more than one mental health problem are at especially high risk of suicide. Having two mental disorders nearly doubles the risk of suicide, and three nearly triples the risk of suicide when compared to people who endure one mental disorder. Scientists aren't certain yet whether the central cause is the environment, heredity, or a combination of both, but suicide does seem to run in families. At...

TL;DR in English: Consider life history and current circumstances. Consider the individual's mental health. Investigate any family history of suicide. Consider the demographics of suicide.

Cut the scratchy hook piece first, then use it as a guide for cutting the fuzzy loop piece. Slide the blade of your scissors through the hooks/loops on the Velcro so that you don't accidentally cut through them.  If the pieces are stuck together, pull them apart. Do not cut through both pieces at the same time, or you may end up cutting through the hooks and loops. If you don't have a pattern, use your best judgement. A 1-in (2.5-cm) square would work great for a purse, but a longer strip would work better for a jacket. If you look closely at a strip of Velcro, you'll notice that the hooks and loops don't extend to the side edges; there is a slight seam on each side. Cut the corners off of these seams so that they are angled instead of straight. This will give your Velcro a nicer finish and prevent it from poking your skin. If your Velcro doesn't have any side seams, use a pair of small, pointed scissors to trim the hooks and loops down on each side to create seams. Velcro is positioned between 2 overlapping pieces of fabric. Place the soft Velcro on the underside of the upper fabric piece. Place the scratchy Velcro on top of the lower fabric piece. This way, the scratchy Velcro will be facing away from your skin. Avoid placing the Velcro right against the edge of the fabric, otherwise the tape may scratch your skin. A single sewing pin through the middle of the strip should be enough for most pieces of Velcro. If you are sewing a very long strip of Velcro, like on a jacket, then you may want to add a sewing pin every couple of inches/centimeters.  If you can't push the pins through the Velcro without bending them, use strips of masking tape instead. If this is a non-garment project, it does not matter which side of Velcro you use for each piece. While not necessary, this will make it easier for the needle to pass through the Velcro. Simply run the needle over a block of beeswax or needle lubricant. You can find both in the sewing or beading section of a craft store. Fabric stores may also carry them.

TL;DR in English: Cut the Velcro down to the right length. Cut the corners on the side seams of each Velcro strip. Position the Velcro so that the hook side faces away from your skin. Pin the Velcro to your project. Coat the needle with beeswax or a needle lubricant, if desired.

Some companies do not accept referrals, as they believe in an unbiased hiring system, so check with your boss or HR to find out if yours does. Also, a position must be open in your company for you to refer someone for a position. You need to ask around and check any job listings to see if a position is open that your friend would fit.  For example, you could ask friends in different departments if they've heard of any openings. Think about the openings that would be the best fit for your friend's skill set. If you're on friendly terms, you can also ask your boss if any openings are likely to come available soon. Make sure to let them know you're asking about jobs so you can refer a friend. If they're hiring in your department, then you'll need to send it to your boss. However, if it's another department, you may need to figure out who's on the hiring committee or send it to human resources. Sending an email is better than casually recommending a friend in person. It gives you a chance to play up their good qualities, plus the hiring committee has something to refer back to later. While you may want to start with some niceties, such as "How are you?" make sure you get to the point quickly. Bring up the position to get the conversation going, for instance. You could say, "I heard you were hiring for a new position, and I believe you're on the hiring committee." Next, you need to talk about why you're mentioning the position. They may think you are wanting to recommend yourself, so you need to be clear about what you want, making a recommendation for a friend. You could write, "If you're accepting referrals, I'd like to put in a good word for a friend of mine, Rachel Amador. She should be sending in an application in the next week." You also want to say why you think your friend will be a good fit for the position, not just bring up that they want the job. That way, you can help the person doing the hiring understand how your friend is a good fit. For instance, you could write, "Rachel is a hard worker, which I...

TL;DR in English: Find out if the company is accepting referrals. Figure out the appropriate person to send the email to. Address the purpose early on. Bring up the referral. Offer information on the person. Close the email.

Hang out with your ex on small social outings. At first, keep hang outs short and modest - a trip to a cafe or an art museum, for instance. Keep a full schedule (or at least pretend to.) If things get awkward, you can always use the excuse that you're running late for something else to get out of there!   Definitely  don't do anything together that can be construed as a date. Don't stay out late, drink alcohol, or go dancing. You could find yourself falling for each other again, and if you haven't fixed the things that led to your breakup, you'll be setting yourself up for future heartbreak. Worse, you could ruin any new romances either of you has started with other people. Your ex might be confused about your intentions if you're not perfectly clear with him about what you want. Simply say, "I hope we can still be friends" or ask the question "We're still friends, right?"  Don't  leave this issue unaddressed - if you're vague about what you want from your new relationship, he might think you're trying to get back together with him. Spare yourself some terrible drama by being open and honest with him from the get-go. One of the biggest mistakes you can make is to act like nothing's happened after a breakup. Doing so gives off the impression that you never cared. It can really hurt his feelings - at this point, that  shouldn't  be something you're trying to do. After you make contact, acknowledge your breakup without dwelling on it. You might try using phrases like these:  "I'm so glad I got to see you again." "I really hope you're doing better. I am." "I want to move on and start over as friends." If his friends knew about your old relationship, they'll be curious to know what's going on. If you have any reason to suspect he won't be honest with his friends, don't let him spin them a lie. Tell them you're looking to be friends with him and nothing more. If they hear from him that you're desperate to get back together but they hear from you that you're not, they'll probably (correctly) assume that he's the...

Make payment arrangements. Set times for delivery. Hire appropriate drivers. Stay within state amount limits.

Don’t be in too big of a hurry to stand up or make the trip to the podium. Walk slowly to your mark, being relaxed and deliberate. Stretch the time you have and use it to prepare yourself and consider what your opening lines will be.  Most of the time when you’re giving an impromptu speech, you’ll be singled out to say a few words on the spot. Since you’ll only have a few moments, preparing yourself is more about getting yourself in the right state of mind than it is knowing exactly what you’re going to say.  If you really need to milk it, you can buy yourself some extra time by shaking hands, exchanging pleasantries or adjusting the microphone stand before speaking. Take a few slow, deep breaths to collect yourself. Let your mind settle so you can concentrate on the task at hand. Shut out all unnecessary distractions that might steal your attention and stifle anxious thoughts that might cause you to doubt yourself.  Assume that everyone around you wants to see you succeed. This will help put you at ease. Expecting yourself to fail will only destroy your composure and make you more fearful of your audience. Confront the reality of your situation to avoid being blindsided by panic. Accept that you have to give a speech and then focus all your resources on giving a good one. Face your audience boldly and smile. Make eye contact with those closest to you. Display confident body language—try not to fidget, tremble or arrange yourself awkwardly. Think positive thoughts to reassure yourself. For you to come off as interesting, witty and engaging, you have to believe that you are.  Oftentimes, the more confident you make yourself appear, the more confident you’ll feel. Relax! Speaking in front of a crowd is not that big a deal. Even if you make a mistake, it’s not the end of the world. In a few words, let everyone know who you are. Tell them your name and describe yourself and your relation to the event or role as a speaker. You might also thank everyone for their presence and attention. Don’t avert to the fact that...

TL;DR in English: Take your time getting ready to speak. Calm your nerves. Project a confident aura. Make a short introduction.

What happened in those partnerships that may have made you uneasy about getting involved again? Looking at your past does not mean you assume all relationships are the same. They are not. But the one common denominator is you. You need to take a look at the behaviors that are not serving you or your personal growth. Fears can be tied to just about anything, and figuring out where yours lie will help to tell you what work needs to be done.  If you have been cheated on in the past, you may be fearful of never being enough to keep a lover to yourself. Understanding this fear will help you see that you are enough and you do not deserve that level of disrespect. Abuse, either physical or emotional, may have been a part of your past relationships. This can be very scary and make the relationship not based on love but danger and fear for one’s safety. Get professional help. You may even be fearful things are going to go too well and you will have to answer tough questions about things like having a family and a future that is not all about you. This can be very scary if you have settled into your single life. Some young people worry about getting involved in a committed relationship because it can be the ultimate sign of growing up. You want things to stay the same, not to change. You think avoiding a relationship allows you to maintain the innocence and carefree attitude of youth.  This is a common and warranted fear, but you must aim to move past it. Yes, your relationships with friends and family members may change. This can happen whether you are in a romantic relationship or not. However, try not to see romantic relationships as automatically the most important. Relationships with family and friends can be very important too and sometimes deserve more priority than they are often given. Some people think they are incapable of loving others, so they refrain from entering one-sided relationships. For the most part, love is frequently unequal.  Love also changes and evolves. You may see times where you feel like...

TL;DR in English: Take a look at recurring patterns in your past relationships. Try to uncover what your fears are. Don't worry about a straining your existing relationships. Defeat the idea that you cannot love. See a counselor to help you overcome trust or commitment issues.

Hot liquids in general help to dissolve the mucus that causes chest congestion, but tea offers a double benefit by adding in helpful herbs and spices that can ease chest pain and congestion. Brew up a cup of peppermint, ginger, chamomile, or rosemary tea to drink 4–5 times a day. Add a bit of honey for sweetness and extra mucus-fighting power. Avoid caffeinated drinks like black tea, green tea, or coffee. Caffeine can actually stimulate mucus production and make your chest congestion worse. Certain foods can help clear mucus out of your chest. These foods encourage your body to expel mucous by irritating your nasal passages and causing them to secrete thin, watery mucous that's easily expelled and that takes other, thicker mucous along with it. Try upping your consumption of spicy foods, citrus fruits, garlic, onion, and ginger for easy chest congestion relief. Incorporate these foods into your lunch and dinner menu for 3–4 days for congestion relief.  Some non-spicy foods have been shown to have chest-clearing benefits as well. These include licorice root, guava, ginseng, and pomegranate. Many of these spicy foods also have anti-inflammatory effects that could help with chest congestion, but these are only long-term effects and will take months to take hold. Drinking plenty of water is especially helpful in clearing out chest congestion, especially when the water is hot. Not drinking enough liquids will cause the mucus in your chest and throat to coagulate and thicken, making it stickier and harder to get rid of. Drink water throughout the day and with your meals to thin out the mucus in your body. There's no set number of glasses that people should drink during the day, since the amount you drink depends on many factors. Instead of counting glasses of water, just drink when you're thirsty. When you are sick, your body works hard to kill your infection and this can significantly deplete your body’s stock of electrolytes without restoring them. Drinking sports drinks is an efficient way to get the...

TL;DR in English: Consume herbal tea and other hot non-caffeinated beverages. Eat spicy and foods like ginger and garlic to break up congestion. Keep your body hydrated by drinking water throughout the day. Drink sports drinks and juice to increase your electrolyte production. Cut fatty foods that increase mucous production out of your diet.

As she is your girlfriend, you should be thinking about her. When you do, let her know. A simple text message or phone call if you are apart, or a gentle touch on her back or arm if you are together, are small ways to let her know you care.  Try a simple message: “Just wanted to let you know I'm thinking about you.” A little gesture like this may make her day. Bring up a recent memory. For example: “I can't stop thinking about the time I accidentally dropped all the eggs on the floor and you slipped on them! It's been making me laugh all day.” Begin with a compliment: “Your beautiful smile has been on my mind all day today!” Subtle actions can go a long way with your girlfriend. Using your manners and going out of your way to be particularly polite and thoughtful around her will be highly appreciated. However, you should look to reach an agreement about the type of thoughtful behavior that she will appreciate. Talk with your girlfriend early on about which types of traditionally courteous behaviors fit into your lives and which do not. For example, you may want to pull out her chair for her, but she may find this patronizing. Communicating about these behaviors will help avoid any misunderstanding. Here are some suggestions for courteous behaviors she may appreciate:  Open the door for her. This move has been appreciated by women for centuries! Walk on the outside of the sidewalk, closest to traffic. This is a quiet sign of protection. Put your arm around her in busy, public places. Offer to pay the bill at dinner. Even if she refuses and asks to split the bill, your offer will not go unnoticed. Introduce her. It might bother her to be standing next to you chatting with a crowd of your friends when none of them knows her name. Make sure the first thing you do is introduce your girlfriend. This will make her feel important to you and let her relax a bit in conversing with your friends. . Whether you are alone, amongst friends, or at a crowded bar of strangers, let her know that she is the one who has your eye...

In many states that allow home delivery of alcoholic beverages, the customer must make payment in full at your location in advance of the delivery, rather than paying the delivery person when their order is delivered.  In some states, the customer must come to the store in person and purchase the alcoholic beverages they want delivered in a face-to-face transaction. Other states allow customer orders over the internet or by telephone, as long as they are processed in-store just as a normal in-person transaction would be. Typically alcoholic beverages must be purchased in advance – the customer cannot pay the delivery driver on receipt of the delivery, using any method of payment. Check with your state licensing board to make sure you've set up appropriate methods of payment and identification of the customer that comply with your state's regulations. These rules differ significantly from state to state in regard to home delivery of alcoholic beverages. Typically, you can deliver orders to customers during the normal retail hours of your business. However, the days of the week and times you are permitted to deliver alcoholic beverages to customers may be further restricted by your state's law.  For example, some states do not allow the delivery of alcoholic beverages after dark, even if your physical store can remain open late into the evening. In states where customers are required to make their purchase in person for later delivery, you may be allowed to deliver even on days such as Sunday when you can't open your store. In addition to state regulations, choosing your delivery times also is a matter of personal preferences. Set times that suit the needs of your business while also taking into consideration the safety of your employees who will be making the deliveries. Most states require that those who deliver alcoholic beverages for you be over the age of 21. They also may have to meet other state requirements relative to licensing retail sales clerks.  In addition, your delivery drivers must have driver's...

Over-the-counter pain relievers, like ibuprofen or acetaminophen, may reduce pain and discomfort. Don’t take these pain relievers unless you have approval from your doctor or pharmacist, as they may interfere with your medication.  Always follow the instructions on the label of the pain reliever before taking it. Your doctor may prescribe a medication called Pyridium to relieve severe bladder pain and inflammation. Do not take this medication more often or for a longer period than recommended. Pyridium may cause your urine to appear dark orange or red. Water will help you urinate and pass the bacteria out of your body. Aim to drink about .5 gallons (1.9 L) of water a day. This is roughly 8 glasses with 8 ounces (230 g) of water each. Avoid drinking coffee, alcohol, or caffeinated sodas until you have recovered from your infection. While research is mixed on this subject, cranberry juice may be able to help fight infection and reduce the acidity of your urine. Try drinking cranberry juice in addition to water for the best results.  Avoid cranberry juice if you're taking the blood thinning medication Warfarin. The interaction between the juice and the medication may cause bleeding. Look for a brand that contains 100% real juice and is sugar free or low in added sugar. High-quality, all-natural juices are best. Check your local health food store, or buy some cranberries and make your own. Look for an unsweetened cranberry juice recipe online. You can use a heating pad, hot water bottle, or a heat wrap. Rest the heat against the sore area. Leave it there for up to 20 minutes. To use a hot water bottle, fill the bottle with hot, but not boiling water. Wrap it in a towel before placing it against your body. Sex may worsen your infection or cause discomfort while you are recovering. Wait until you have finished your course of antibiotics or get your doctor’s approval before having sex again. Women are especially vulnerable to developing urinary tract infections after sex. You can minimize your chances of getting a...

TL;DR in English: Ask your doctor or pharmacist if you can take a mild pain reliever. Drink more water to flush out the infection. Try drinking cranberry juice. Place heat against your lower stomach or back to relieve pain. Avoid having sex until you have recovered.

Use a push lawnmower instead of a riding lawnmower. If you are accustomed to using a riding lawnmower because of the size of your lawn, divide your lawn into sections and mow each section on separate days. Use a shovel instead of a snow blower. Use a rake instead of a leaf blower. Wash your car yourself versus taking it through the car wash. You can’t help but dance to it. Slow dancing burns approximately 3 to 4 calories a minute, and fast dancing burns about 8 calories a minute. If you dance while doing the housework, you’ll be in the mid-range of about 5 calories a minute. So dance your way to a smaller butt and thighs while getting your housework done more quickly. You do this is by building up a set of habits over the years that help you stay fit without putting in a ton of effort. This happens overtime by making good lifestyle choices. Pick weekend activities that keep you moving like hiking and bicycling. Don’t be a couch potato. Overall, sitting for too long is not good. Basically this means that whenever you can, get up and move. All the way around, sitting on a ball is much better for you. It requires good posture, and unlike sitting in an office chair, you can’t slouch. Also sitting on a ball activates the core muscles of your back, hips and abdomen. When one part of your body gets in shape, it means that the other parts of your body, like your butt and thighs, receive benefit, too. This is a perfect investment if you don’t like to exercise. You can wear it when you’re cleaning the house or washing the car. A vest gives you an additional 20 pounds of weight to hold. You can even just walk around wearing it for 30 minutes a day. It will help you build muscle and burn calories, all without exercising.

TL;DR in English: Look for more action-oriented ways to do your chores. Do your housework to energetic songs that you love. Be that person that doesn’t try to stay in shape. Replace your office chair with a stability ball. Wear a weighted vest around your torso.

Dirt or grease on the blade may result in an uneven sharpening of your knife. Sharpening the blade may be easier if you briefly dip the cold blade into boiling water right before you begin sharpening it. There are numerous types of files and sharpeners on the market, including  Japanese water stones, stones with diamond encrusted surfaces, and stones with different grades of grit.  These different tools will give you slightly different results. For most purposes, a basic, two-sided sharpening stone, available for about $10 at most hardware stores, will be adequate.  There is also a knife sharpener you can buy specifically for the purpose of sharpening Swiss Army Knives, available from the company's online store. There is some disagreement as to whether it is important or even beneficial to lubricate your sharpening stone. If you choose to lubricate yours, a variety of different options are available.  Some people believe that lubricant should be used because the friction that results from sharpening the blade has the potential to warp it, or because the lubricant will help float away metal particles that can dull the blade during the sharpening process or clog the pores of the stone itself.  Others believe lubricant is unnecessary, slows the process the down, and may actually dull the blade by washing the metal particles over the blade during the sharpening process.  If you opt to use a lubricant, you can use cutting oil, mineral oil, kerosene, or WD-40 on natural stones, or water on diamond stones.  Before applying oil, consult any instructions that came with your sharpening stone. Some types of stones can be ruined by the use of oil.

TL;DR in English: Clean the knife thoroughly. Select a sharpening tool. Lubricate your stone if desired.

Look at the parts you have just removed. You must find the part to replace. The best way to ensure you will fix the leak is to fix all the wearable parts on both hot and cold faucet valves. Take your old parts to a hardware store or home center. Since there are thousands of replacement parts available, bringing your old parts with you will ensure you purchase the correct replacements. In some cases, the parts may need to be purchased from a plumbing supplies distributor. You can replace the washers or the entire stem and bonnet portion of the faucet. Grease each new part with plumber’s grease before screwing it back on. Unscrew the seat washer screw at the back of the seat. Peel off the rubber seat washer. Replace the seat washer screw and the seat washer after greasing them. Screw the seat back into place with the seat wrench. Tighten it with your hand. It should be tightly sealed but easy to remove by hand. Remove the bonnet washer from the end of the bonnet. Grease it and replace it on the bonnet. Remove the packing nut in the middle of the stem bonnet. Pry the rubber-packing washer from the nut with a flat-headed screwdriver. Grease the stem threads on the front of the stem and insert it into the bonnet. Grease your new packing washer and place it in front of the greased packing nut. Apply some pipe joint compound to the threads in your bonnet. Insert the bonnet and tighten it with your bath socket wrench or vice grip. Repeat on the other side to replace parts in the opposite handle. If you spring a new leak, you may want to call a plumber.

TL;DR in English: Identify faulty parts. Locate replacement parts. Replace parts inside the stem bonnet first. Replace the seat washer. Replace the bonnet washer. Replace the packing nut. Replace the packing washer. Replace the bonnet. Replace the collar, faucet trim, faucet handle, faucet screw and faucet insert. Turn the water back on and test your repair job.

List their talents, strengths and weaknesses, moral beliefs, likes and dislikes, and any other personal information you have considered. Readers don't need all of this information, but you need to know your character in and out to make decisions about what to present.  Think about how they see themselves and how others would perceive them. Do these images match or clash?  Do their dreams for the future match their talents and strengths? You want your reader to leave with an impression of who your character is as a person, not just what they look like. Are their clothes neatly pressed and tailored, indicating attention to their appearance, or do they look like they rolled out of bed and threw on whatever was nearest on the floor. Note anything that is absent that one would normally expect.  Are they walking in the snow without a coat or shoes, or fully dressed head-to-toe in 100 degree weather? Describing how your character interacts with his or her environment gives you a chance to offer insight into their intellect and conscious indirectly, so that your writing becomes a story and not just a biographical sketch.  Be specific and concrete.  If surfing the web, what type of sites are they looking at?  If walking, are they taking large, confident strides or shuffling their feet?  Even if s/he is doing "nothing," this fact provides insight into their personality and thoughts. When little direct action is taking place, recording the character's thoughts or conversations keeps the reader engaged.  When using dialogue, note the speaker’s tone or inflection, any pauses or tics, or unusual words choices. Do they gesture while they speak or use meaningful body language? Are they saying what they really think or hiding their true nature? Make their physical attributes active, as well.  A long skirt might graze the floor, their hair may fly around wildly. Maybe their coffee cup sits motionless and loses its warmth because they are too preoccupied to drink.

Use any program you like, such as Windows Movie Maker (it usually comes with the computer), Sony Vega, iMovie, or Media Impression. Note: It's always better if you use the program that comes with the camera. Sometimes you can't edit the videos with another program if you don't save them with the program that comes with the camera first. These type of programs aren't usually very good, unless it's an expensive camera. Plus, you can edit your movie with as many programs as you like until you get good results. If you filmed it with a green screen, there are some programs that can edit those type of videos. When buying one, get well-informed about what the program can do. Try to actually make your own music, if you want. Put a title and credits. Include all the people who worked in the movie. If you did most of the work it might be a good idea to put: A film by (_) Don't forget the date. If you can't add credits and a title, you can paint the letters with the program Paint that all computers have, and save it as an image. So when putting it all together just include that. Upload it to YouTube if you want everyone to see your work. Did it look good? Was it what you expected? Did you have fun? Has everyone had fun? What where the main problems when making the movie? What did you like the most about the film? and the worst? What would you do better next time? Why? Would you repeat the experience?

TL;DR in English: Put everything together. Add music on your video - this can be done with almost any program, Windows Movie Maker will do. Make a DVD of your movie and give it to everyone you want. Evaluate your movie.

When your rabbit’s ears are lying down on their head, intersecting with each other in the back, they are resting. This means that they are content. If your rabbit’s ears are lying back against its head but are not touching, this can be a sign that it is frightened. Look at other body language cues to verify if your rabbit seems to be resting or agitated. If the rabbit’s eyes are half closed and it is lying down, it is probably happy. If it is growling, it is probably angry and afraid. If your rabbit is taking a break from exercise, it will often place its ears straight out and back, instead of lying completely down. This is a semi-relaxed pose and generally means that your rabbit wants to take a break before getting back to exercise. If your rabbit shakes its ears and then jumps, it is excited about something. Often, it is an invitation to play. Other times, it might be excited about getting fed.

TL;DR in English: Watch for a happy bunny to lay its ears back. Watch for an exhausted bunny to let its ears down a little. Look for an excited bunny to shake its ears and hop.

Heavy-duty plastic sheeting helps to minimize how much dust gets dispersed through the air. Cover all the openings throughout your home, such as doorways and windows, with it. For best results, hang the sheeting from floor to ceiling.  Cover all of the air vents and ductwork. Secure the plastic sheeting with masking tape. Move as much furniture out of the way as you can. Cover what can’t be moved with plastic sheeting, especially upholstered furniture, since the dust can work itself into the fabric. Secure the sheeting in place with bungee cords.  Place plastic sheeting over the entire floor of your work area. If you have carpet in the rest of the house, consider covering the floors in every room with self-adhesive plastic lining. Leaving the system on will result in drywall dust getting into it, which will then spread throughout your home. Even though you’re covering all of the air ducts with plastic sheeting before you begin, it is still beneficial to turn off the circulation system.  Be sure to leave the circulation system off until you’ve completed your task and cleaned up the dust afterward. Check your system’s air filter frequently in the weeks following the sanding. You will probably need to replace it soon after. Using box fans will help keep the room you are working in ventilated. Open the windows and place the box fans in them. Be sure to position the box fans so that air blows out of the room, not into it. Use plastic sheeting to seal off the area around the fans and window frames. Duct tape the plastic in place.  If any of the windows have air conditioning units in them, remove them from the room. They get clogged with dust easily. Use the box fans on a low setting, which will cause the least air disturbance. Setting them on high will suck out a lot of the dust, but it will also increase the amount that’s moving through the air. This will allow the dust to move freely from inside to outside. It also improves the air circulation in the area. Not removing the screens will trap a lot of the dust in...

TL;DR in English: Block off all vents and openings with plastic sheeting. Cover the floor and protect the furniture. Turn off the central heat and air circulation. Place box fans in the windows. Remove the door and window screens.

Most products in Hawaii cost more than you may be accustomed to coming from the mainland United States.  All products must be shipped to Hawaii, dramatically increasing their costs and utilities are also more expensive.  Things like electricity can cost two to three times the average price of the same usage on the mainland. Dietary staples like milk and other common groceries are also significantly more expensive. Property values are extremely high, so housing is more expensive than most places in the mainland United States per square foot. Living on an island brings about risks that you may not be accustomed to now, but will need to adjust to after moving to Hawaii.  While it is a safe place to live overall, you’re at a higher risk of experiencing some emergency situations than you would be elsewhere in the United States.  Hurricanes and tsunamis are a dangerous reality for those living in Hawaii and other island nations. There are dangerous forms of sea life that thrive in the coasts of Hawaii.  While shark attacks are uncommon, they are not unheard of. Hawaii is a rabies free state, which means they take the risks brought about by imported pets extremely seriously. You will have to be prepared to leave your pets in quarantine for a period of time upon your arrival to the island.  Depending the on the age, breed and species of your pet, it will be quarantined for anywhere from five to thirty days to ensure it does not carry the rabies or other communicable viruses. Your pet should have all necessary vaccinations before arriving on the island. Your pet also is required to be micro-chipped prior to arriving in Hawaii. Hawaii is a very welcoming place with countless reasons to live there, but it is not without issues.  Because of the colonial history of Hawaii, native Hawaiians suffered a great deal at the hands of others through economic, political and even violent oppression.  Remnants of the tension between native Hawaiians and people relocating to the island remain to this day.  “Haole” is a term for...

TL;DR in English: Adjust to a higher cost of living. Understand the risks associated with island living. Prepare your pets. Respect Hawaiian culture.

If you don’t like the idea of adding real chocolate to your bath, you can choose to use chocolate fragrance oil instead. Chocolate fragrance oil comes in a variety of scents, like dark chocolate, mousse, and fudge. Almost any brand of fragrance oil you buy should work for the mixture. Crafters Choice, Nature Garden Secrets, and Essential Oil are brands that make chocolate fragrance oil. Glycerin is a sweet and colorless liquid that can be dissolved into water and alcohol. Glycerin has many skin benefits. It can be used as a toner, moisturizer, and it can treat wrinkles and blackheads. You can buy glycerin at most pharmacies and supermarkets. Africare is a brand name of 100% glycerin. You can also buy generic brands from stores like CVS and Walgreens. Baby shampoos are considered mild shampoos. Brands like Dawn and Ivory make mild dish soaps. Shampoo and dish soap can be found at most supermarkets. A small bottle will be enough because you will only need to use one cup of shampoo or soap. You can also choose to use unscented bubble bath, but you should not include it in the initial mixture. Instead, wait to add it directly to the bath.

TL;DR in English:


Clean the area. Apply cold on the day of the injury. Switch to warm compresses. Take over the counter painkillers. Stay hydrated. Protect your lips with lip balm or chapstick. Keep the lip uncovered and pressure-free to avoid injuring it again. Eat a healthy diet.

Have you thought about why you wanted to prevent your partner from breaking up with you? Think long and hard about your reasons. Question your intentions behind staying in the relationship. Consider if you reasons are beneficial for both you and your partner or if they are merely selfish. For example, you might have chosen to stay in the relationship only because you fear being single. Or you might try to prevent the breakup because you don't want to be the one getting dumped. Abusive behavior shouldn't be tolerated. If your partner is physically, sexually, verbally, or emotionally abusive, you are doing yourself a favor by leaving. It can be frightening to leave an abusive partner, but many people do it every day. Reach out to friends, family, or resources in your community to help you get the confidence you need to leave an abusive relationship. If you are in a relationship with an addict or someone with unhealthy behavioral patterns, your feelings of responsibility for the person may keep you from walking away. Being codependent may mean a good part of your self-worth is tied to caring for and supporting your partner. Such a relationship is unhealthy. Learn to recognize signs of codependency. Then, see a therapist privately to work on breaking the bonds that keep you in a toxic partnership. Some couples have a way of breaking up and making up over and over again. This is yet another unhealthy relationship pattern. If you or your partner has good reason to leave the relationship, you shouldn't keep defaulting on the decision. Make the difficult decision to leave for good.  End this cycle by getting real about the problems in your relationship. Don't rationalize or down-play what's making you unhappy. Work to improve other areas of your life, so you don't end up running back to your partner. Rebuild old friendships, find a passion, or commit to a new goal that makes your life more fulfilling without your partner. It may also help to see a counselor individually to address any fears you have of leaving your...

TL;DR in English: Assess your reasons for staying. Say “no” to abuse. Watch out for codependency issues. End a breakup and makeup cycle once and for all.

" The person may look disappointed or even embarrassed after saying “I love you” if you don’t reciprocate. This is normal. It’s fine to show empathy for them, but don’t feel pressured to say “I love you” or feel guilty for being honest about your feelings. Allow them a moment to sit with their feelings before you respond. You might even offer to let them have some privacy if they seem very sad or embarrassed. Try saying something like, “I’m sorry if that came as a shock. If you need a minute to yourself, I can leave and we can talk again later.” It’s normal for someone to feel sad or disappointed, and even embarrassed if you don’t reciprocate their feelings, but it’s not normal for them to respond with anger or rage. If the person starts yelling, storms out, throws or breaks something, or becomes physically aggressive towards you, leave immediately and stay away from them. These kinds of reactions are all red flags that the person may become abusive towards you.  Call emergency services if the person becomes violent or aggressive towards you and you are alone with them. Even if your significant other is declaring their love for you already, this does not mean that you have to do the same for the relationship to continue. You might need more time and that is perfectly fine! It’s normal for people to move at different paces in a relationship. Take your time and don’t say “I love you” until or unless you are actually ready.  For example, your significant other might be ready to say “I love you” after only 3 months of dating, while you might need 4 months or longer to develop those feelings. Be aware that there is a possibility that you will never feel the same way about them as they feel about you. Honor your true feelings and do not continue the relationship if this is the case. If you responded positively after the person says “I love you,” it might be a good idea to do something enjoyable to commemorate the moment. Go for a walk together, watch a romantic movie, or do something else that you both enjoy....

TL;DR in English: Expect some disappointment if you don’t say “I love you. Watch for extreme reactions like anger. Accept that everyone moves at their own pace within a relationship. Do something fun to commemorate the moment.

Reserve a page at the end of your paper for the bibliography, referred to as "works cited" in MLA style. Write "Works Cited" at the top of the next page after the last page of your paper. This page should have the same header with your last name as the rest of your paper, and your page numbers should continue onto this page, too. You should capitalize every word in the title of your sources, except for words like “an,” “the,” and “of.” If you’re unsure how to capitalize your title, you can use online capitalization generators, like Title Capitalization, to check your titles. All of the pages of your MLA bibliography should be double spaced. You don’t need to put extra spaces between each source, as long as everything is double-spaced. If your source takes up more than one line, indent the each successive line 0.5 inches (1.25 cm). Once you begin a new source, go back to the original margin. After the author’s last name, you should list their full first name and their middle name or initial, if they have one listed on the source. You shouldn’t use an author’s title or degrees when listing their names in your bibliography. This is true even if they are listed that way on the source. Include the author's last name and first name, separated by a comma and ending with a period. Then the book title comes in italics with a period at the end of the title. The place of publication and the name of the publishing company are separated by a colon, and then a comma and the publication date. For example, a book citation might look like this: Butler, Olivia. Parable of the Flower. Sacramento: Seed Press, 1996. Start with the last name and first name of the author, followed by a period. Then the title of the article should be in quotes, with a period after the title (but still inside the last quotation mark). The name of the periodical or book should follow in italics, followed by a comma and then volume and issue numbers and date of publication, all separated by commas. Finally, a colon separates the date of publication the...

TL;DR in English: Create a works cited page. Capitalize all words in titles except articles, prepositions, and conjunctions. Double space your citations page. Indent each successive line for the same source. List your sources alphabetically by author’s last name. Cite books. Cite articles. Cite websites. Use reliable sources to look for the citations rules for other types of sources.

While your lip is swollen and sore, it is vulnerable to injury. Sponge it with water gently, several times a day or whenever it gets dirty. Do not pick at it or wipe it.  If the lip swelled after an injury, especially a fall, disinfect it with an antiseptic. If the lip is swollen due to a piercing, follow the advice from the person who did the procedure. Don't take the piercing in and out unnecessarily. Wash your hands before you handle it. Do not clean with rubbing alcohol, which can make it worse. Wrap ice in a towel, or use an ice pack from the freezer. Place it gently on your swollen lip. This will reduce swelling for a recent injury. After the first few hours, cold is not typically effective, except to relieve pain. If you don't have ice, freeze a spoon for 5-15 minutes and put that on your swollen lip. Alternatively, suck on a popsicle. After the initial swelling is done, warmth may encourage healing. Heat water until hot, but still cool enough to touch. Dip a towel in the water, then wring out the excess. Hold it to your lips for 10 minutes. Repeat once an hour, several times a day or until swelling reverses. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are medications that decrease pain and swelling. The most common over-the-counter variants are acetaminophen, ibuprofen, and naproxen. Drink plenty of water to keep your lips hydrated and avoid further cracking or swelling. These treatments moisturize your lips, preventing further cracking and drying.  There are many ways to make your own lip balm. Try combining 2 parts coconut oil, 2 parts olive oil, 2 parts grated beeswax, and a few drops of essential oil for scent. In a pinch, just dab your lips with coconut oil or aloe vera gel. Avoid balms that contain camphor, menthol, or phenol. Use petroleum jelly sparingly, as it may cause health issues in large quantities, and may not add much additional moisture. Pressure can cause more injury and a lot more pain. Try to keep the bruised area free and exposed to air. If chewing food hurts, healing will take...

Wait until the time is right. Do a practice run. Present them with the facts. Give them time. Understand when it's not a good idea.

Pedal boards can be bought off the shelf or customized to your particular set-up. Whether you choose a small, medium, or large pedal board generally depends on the number of pedals you're using on a regular basis and the size of those pedals.  Generally, if you're using five or fewer pedals, you want a small pedal board. For more than ten pedals, on the other hand, you want a large pedal board. Also take into consideration if you plan to add more pedals over time. For example, if you currently use four pedals but plan on adding three more, it's best to go ahead and get a medium-sized pedal board so you'll have room for the others when you get them. If your pedals are oversized, you may want to get a large pedal board even if you're only using four or five pedals. This will prevent overcrowding. Whether you're buying a pre-built board or building your own, you need to make sure the pedal board will power all your pedals. While most pedals require 9 volts of power, some require more.  Be sure to check the power requirements of every pedal in your set-up – don't just assume they're all the same. You also want to check the power requirements of pedals you plan to add later on to ensure the board you buy can handle them. Your power supply needs to have the correct voltage as well as be able to handle the number of pedals you have or ultimately will have once your set-up is complete.  For example, if you have 10 pedals, all of which require 9 volts, you'll need a 9-volt power supply capable of handling 10 or more pedals. If you have one pedal that requires 12 volts, you'll need to look for a power supply that allows you to isolate pedals, because you don't want 12 volts running through the other pedals that require less power. While you do want to leave a little bit of space between pedals on your pedal board to keep it from looking cluttered, you still want to use extremely short patch cables to preserve the quality of your sound.  Choose cables with right-angle plugs rather than straight plugs, and this will cut...

TL;DR in English: Choose the right size. Check the power requirements of your pedals. Find an adequate power supply. Use compact patch cables. Velcro your pedals to the board.

The average adult needs 7-8 hours of sleep per night, and sleep is even more important when your immune system is compromised. Make sure that you're well-rested: don't stay up too late, and sleep in when possible. Sleep gives your body time to heal. Consider calling in sick at work--or going in late--to give yourself plenty of time to sleep in. You don't need to stay in bed all day unless you feel so inclined, but try at least to take it easy. It is easy to become dehydrated when you're sick, and dry sinuses will only worsen your cold symptoms. Drink plenty of water, tea, and soup to minimize irritation.  Avoid drinking alcohol and sugary drinks, as even low consumption can weaken your immune system. Wait to resume these habits until you're well and your immune system is ready for the beating. Consider using a humidifier in your bedroom to keep from breathing dry air at night. You can buy an electric humidifier at some department stores and drugstores. Your immune system is already compromised, so try to stay away from bacteria that might make your condition worse. Avoid hospitals, crowded areas, and other sick people; avoid any place where germs congregate. Wash your hands with antibacterial hand sanitizer several times throughout the day.  Consider carrying a small bottle of hand sanitizer about with you. Whenever you come into contact with germs or sick people, cleanse your hands. Avoid infecting others, especially children, the elderly, and anyone with a weak immune system. Cover your nose and mouth with your arm, a tissue, or a handkerchief when you sneeze or cough. Wash infected pillowcases, towels, clothing, and utensils to avoid reinfecting yourself once you're well. Sugar consumption weakens your immune system, and eating a lot of sugar-heavy foods may reduce your body's ability to recover from cold symptoms. There is some medical disagreement as to whether avoiding sugar during a cold can actually reduce the duration, but it is generally accepted that avoiding sugar in general is better for your...

TL;DR in English: Get plenty of sleep. Stay hydrated. Avoid exposure to germs. Avoid sugar.

Click the search bar and type in the name of your song. Press ↵ Enter to display everything that matches your search in the library. Ringtones can be a maximum of 30 seconds in length, so choose a part of the song you think would work best as a ringtone in that period of time. You’ll need to write down or remember the starting and stopping time of your new ringtone. To do this:  As your song plays, look at the moving slider at the top right side of the screen. The left side of the moving slider shows how many seconds have elapsed as the song plays. Remember (or write down) the time when your ringtone should start. You can move the slider around with your mouse to test different periods of time within an audio file. From the starting point, keep listening and write down the time listed when the tone should end. Keep the 30-second maximum ringtone time in mind—if you want the tone to start at 1:30 (1 minute and 30 seconds) into the song, the end time can be no later than 2:00. This process is slightly different between Windows and Mac.  Windows: right-click the song and select “Get Info.” Mac: Ctrl + click to access the “Get Info” menu. Type the Start and Stop times (in minutes and seconds, like 1:30) in the corresponding blanks, then click “OK.” ” This will create a new file (ending with the extension .m4a) containing only the audio between the Start and Stop times you set. When the conversion is complete, a new copy of the song will appear beneath the original. Notice the song lengths next to the name of the track. The shorter length track will be your new ringtone. The AAC file will be copied to your desktop with a name like songname.m4a (instead of “songname” you’ll see the name of your file). You’ll now change the .m4a at the end of the filename to .m4r.  Windows: Right-click the song and select “Rename.” Erase .m4a and type .m4r. Press ↵ Enter to confirm. When asked if you’re sure you want to change the extension, click Yes. Mac: Click once (don’t double-click) on the file and erase the .m4a from the end...

If your piece of clothing or other velvet item has a wrinkle or crease in the pile, you can use a steamer on its low setting to remove the crease. Hold the steamer about 10 centimetres (3.9 in) away from the fabric and move the steamer in the direction of the nap. For accessories like shoes or purses that tend to be lined or structured, steaming won’t work as well. If you have a crease, try brushing it out or placing a form or tissue inside of the accessory to help it maintain its shape. For some wrinkles, the steam from a hot shower can release the creases and return the item to good as new. Be careful not to get the item wet as water can leave spots on velvet! You can use an iron on the steam setting to remove wrinkles and creases. Like the steamer, you’ll hold the iron about 10 centimetres (3.9 in) away from the fabric and move the iron in the direction of the nap. Be careful not to touch the velvet with the iron. Place the spare velvet on the ironing board, pile side up. Then, place your velvet item pile side down on top of the spare velvet. Hover the steamer or iron on steamer setting over the top of the velvet for 15 seconds, repeating until the crease is removed.

TL;DR in English: Use a steamer to remove wrinkles or creases. Hang the item on a strong hanger in the bathroom while you shower. Use an iron on the steam setting if you don’t have a steamer. Remove deep creases with a spare piece of velvet and an iron or steamer.

This kind of discussion is a difficult one, especially if you aren't sure how your parents will react. Wait until you feel comfortable having the discussion. It can be hard if you're questioning your sexuality, as your parents may try to convince you're actually not gay. If you show any hesitation about your sexuality, your parents are likely to ask questions such as "Are you sure?" It's okay to discuss your feelings and reservations with them. – Just realize that they may want to ask if you're positive about your feelings. If you're not 100% sure, it's okay. You can have feelings for another guy now, yet decide later that you prefer women. Sexuality can change over time. But even if that happens later on, it does not invalidate your current feelings or your current relationship. While coming out to anybody is difficult, try coming out to someone who you know is sympathetic first. For instance, if you have a gay friend or know someone who is a gay ally, talk to him or her about your sexuality before addressing it with your parents. It's very hard to say the first time, so trying it out on someone else first can make it slightly easier on you when you do go to your parents. Plus, the person may be able to give you some tips if he or she is gay. Just be sure you completely trust the person first. If you need to convince your parents, try presenting them with facts about homosexuality. You can find many good resources out there about homosexuality, such as Planned Parenthood's website on the LGBTQ community. It's also good to have materials to give them or websites they can visit to read more about it. Many parents need time to adjust to this announcement. Because most parents expect their kids to be straight, they have to change their own thinking about who you are. Let them know it's okay to take time to adjust. For instance, you could say, "I know this announcement is a big one, and I understand if you need some time to adjust to the idea. I know I did." If you know your parents will react very badly because...

Sometimes, past life regression requires tools that we are unable to master—self-hypnosis, for example, can be very difficult. Certified hypnotherapists who specialize in past life regression have been trained in the necessary fields. Here's how you can expect them to direct you:  They may play music as they talk you into a relaxed state, making you feel safe, warm, and comfortable. Let yourself follow along, and find your inner calm. Clear your mind of directed thought, and let whatever comes to you happen naturally. Relax your muscles in your body, especially your neck and shoulders letting the tension release. As you relax deeper, they may talk about the light, letting it flow through you, reaching into every part of your body, until it totally surrounds you. Once you are prepared and totally relaxed, they will open the doors to your many past lives by guiding you back through time. They'll encourage you to explore your memories, with as much detail as you recall. They may take you back to the womb, and talk you through being reborn in a past life. When you've discovered your past life, they will guide you through it, encouraging you to feel it as you remember it, only this time when you awake, you'll have full knowledge of your past. When you're session draws to the close, the hypnotherapist will slowly bring your back to the present reality and your current life. You have just experienced your past life.

TL;DR in English: Visit a hypnotherapist. Congratulations!

Proper first aid treatment is essential to helping prevent a bacterial infection, but you should not attempt to treat a severe flesh wound by yourself. If the wound is deep, wide, or bleeding a lot, you should seek medical help immediately. If you treat a wound with dirty hands, you will increase the chances of a bacterial infection. Wash your hands with warm water and antibacterial soap for 20 seconds and dry them well. Wear clean vinyl or latex gloves if they are available. Avoid latex gloves if you have a latex allergy. If the bleeding is severe, seek medical attention immediately. Do not attempt to treat a severe wound by yourself. Go to an emergency room or call 911. Hold the wound under a gentle stream of running water to clean it. Do not use soap on the wound unless it appears visibly dirty.  If it does seem dirty, clean around the wound gently with a mild soap. Also, do not use hydrogen peroxide to clean a wound. Hydrogen peroxide can interfere with healing. If you notice any debris in the wound, you can try to remove it with tweezers that have been sterilized with alcohol.  If you do not feel comfortable doing that, you can go to a doctor for treatment. An antibiotic ointment, such as Neosporin, can help a wound heal faster and can help keep infection at bay.  Gently apply the ointment to the wounded area after cleaning. If the wound is a small scrape, leave it open to the air. If the wound is deeper, cover it with a sterile gauze. A nonstick bandage held in place with medical tape is the best option for larger wounds, though large band-aids may also work.  Be sure that you do not put the adhesive area of a bandage over a wound, as it may re-open the wound when you remove it. Change the gauze once a day if it is dirty. A good time to change the gauze is when you take a shower. If the wound is red, swollen, draining pus, streaking red away from the wound, or just looking worse, call your doctor.

TL;DR in English: Prevent a skin infection by properly cleaning and bandaging a wound right away. Wash your hands before treating a wound. Keep pressure on the wound until it stops bleeding. Clean the wound with warm running water. Apply ointment. Bandage the wound. Watch for signs of infection.

Do not let stains sit on the carpet for a long period of time. Clean up stains right away so the stain doesn't absorb into the carpet fibers. Stains that sit on the carpet can also end up leaking into the bottom of the carpet, causing mildew and odor. If you know people are going to eat or drink around the carpet, have cleaning materials on hand in the event of spills and stains. If a liquid like blood gets on the carpet, use water to get the stain out. Wet a damp clean cloth and blot the stain out. Do not scrub or rub hard on the stain, as this can make it worse and damage the carpet. Once you have blotted away the blood, use clean paper towels to dry the area. Lay a hard object over the paper towels to soak up any remaining water. Another good spot cleaner is club soda. If someone spills a glass of wine or juice on your carpet, bust out the club soda. Pour a small amount on the stain and use a dry cloth to blot the area until the stain comes out. Do not scrub the stain, as this can ruin the fibers in the carpet. Only use a small amount of club soda at a time. Flooding the area with club soda or using too much of it can cause mildew to build up in the pad of the carpet. If pen ink gets on the carpet, try applying a small amount of milk and cornstarch to the stain. Mix a small amount of milk and cornstarch in a bowl to form a paste. Then, apply the paste to the stain. Use a dry toothbrush to gently brush the paste off the stain. The paste should pick up the ink stain and remove it. Make sure you vacuum up the scraped off paste. You should see a stain free carpet underneath.

TL;DR in English: Address stains immediately. Apply water to stains. Blot stains with club soda. Apply a milk and cornstarch paste.

If you’ve exercised your arms right before you measure your bicep size, you won’t get an accurate bicep measurement. Working out forces blood into your muscles, which temporarily inflates the size of your biceps and triceps. If you’re planning to measure your arms and work out in the same day, always take the measurements first. Wrap a tape measure around both your biceps at their thickest point, near your armpit. Measure one arm after the other. Measuring both biceps will help you compare your arms against each other, and figure out if you need to work one more than the other. Ideally, both biceps should be the same size. For accurate, consistent measurements, make sure that the material of the tape measure is flat against your skin. Don’t pull or distort the tape, or you’ll risk stretching it and distorting your measurement. Make sure that there are no twists or bumps in the tape when you’re measuring. You should also never measure your bicep through a shirt. If you’re wearing a t-shirt, roll the sleeves up. Otherwise, remove your shirt so that you’re measuring directly against the skin of your arm. You’ll get reliable and consistent measurements if you measure your bicep when it’s relaxed. Let your arm hang down beside your body, and keep your muscles relaxed while measuring them.  Consistency is the most important part of measuring any body part for bodybuilding, and it’s easier to get consistent measurements if you don’t flex. Your muscles will flex different amounts from day to day, so measuring the relaxed muscles will provide the most accurate results.

TL;DR in English: Measure before you weight lift. Measure at the thickest part of both biceps. Hold the measuring tape flat against your skin. Do not flex your biceps while measuring.

Take enough supplemental vitamin E capsules to provide you with 800 IU daily. Don’t go over the daily recommended amount because too much could be harmful to your body. A study performed at the Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center indicated that vitamin E can lower some liver enzymes that are commonly believed to advance liver disease. It may even be able to heal some liver scarring. Use 1,000 mg of supplemental Omega-3 fatty acids each day. These fatty acids can be obtained through fish oil capsules. The British Medical Journal reported that this amount of Omega-3 fats can decrease the serum markers associated with liver cell damage. It may also be able to lower triglyceride levels and glucose levels in the body, thereby lowering common risk factors associated with fatty liver disease. Take a daily milk thistle supplement capsule or brew a cup of tea using a milk thistle tea bag. You can also combine 10 drops of milk thistle extract directly into a glass of water.  Silymarin, which is found in milk thistle, serves as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory. Some research suggests that it can directly affect liver function by reducing the release of harmful cytokines from an inflamed liver. As a result, the liver can more easily undergo a natural healing process, during which its fat accumulation can decline. If you are prescribed medicines that could impact the liver, milk thistle is a good option to combat them. Drink two to three cups of green tea on a daily basis. If this does not appeal to you, then take 600 mg of supplemental green tea extract daily.  More precisely, you can find supplemental green tea extract by purchasing supplements containing catechins derived from decaffeinated green tea. Some studies suggest that green tea and catechins derived from green tea can decrease intestinal fat absorption and storage. They can also encourage the oxidation of fatty acids, thereby helping your body use those fatty acids for energy. Take a daily probiotic capsule. For an even more natural approach,...

To anchor your flowers and keep them in place, put floral foam or clay in the bottom of your vessel. Put cling clay underneath the foam, or use floral tape to secure it. Break up the moss or separate the grass so that it looks loose and natural. Cover all of the foam or clay completely with moss or grass. You want the flowers and greenery to be the stars, so be sure there aren’t any pieces of foam showing through your arrangement. You may want to dampen the moss to make it easier to shape and mold. Spritz it with water from a spray bottle or soak it in water for a few minutes. Most silk flowers have wire in the edges of the petals as well as in the stems and leaves. Spread out the branches and blossoms, then apply a gentle pressure with your thumb and first two fingers to the wired parts to shape them as desired. Avoid making harsh angles or sharp curves, or your flowers will look unnatural. Use wire cutters to cut the flower stems so that they fit in your vase. The center flowers should sit just above the rim of the vase, while other elements may stand higher or lower, depending on the look you wish to create. Choose a few large, beautiful blooms to be the focal point of your arrangement. Try using three flowers in the center of the vase and building outward. Cut the stems on these flowers shorter or choose flowers with smaller blooms. Place them around the focal point of your arrangement at different levels and groupings. You can use floral tape to secure stems or situate leaves if you are having trouble getting your arrangement to sit just so. You can add greenery, grass, or leaves to fill out your floral arrangement. Put the greenery in between flower stems so that your arrangement alternates between flowers and greenery. For a realistic look, add three different types of greenery to your arrangement so you have a variety of textures.

TL;DR in English: Add floral foam or clay at the bottom of your vessel. Cover the foam or clay with moss or grass. Shape petals and leaves as desired. Trim flower stems to the desired length. Place larger flowers in the center. Arrange smaller flowers around the larger ones. Fill in gaps with greenery.

Fill a bowl of water about 3/4 full with warm water. Add a few drops of a gentle dish soap such as Dawn. Soak the jewelry for at least a 30 minutes for a good result. The dish soap will make the ring slippery, so if there is a sink you are using, make sure that the drain is plugged. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to wear gloves. Use a clean, soft-bristled toothbrush to be used only for cleaning your jewelry. Wet the toothbrush in the solution. Clean the ring over the bowl, using gentle circular motions. Pay special attention to places that are hard to reach, like the inside of the setting and undersides of the diamonds. Allow the ring to air dry. Alternatively, you can use a soft, dry lint-free cloth to remove moisture from the ring. If you’re in a hurry, you can blow-dry it. If you’re allowing the ring to air dry, place it somewhere safe on a dry lint-free cloth. Don’t put it somewhere it can be easily knocked down, like on the edge of a counter. Don’t set it near a sink with an unplugged drain.

TL;DR in English: Make a mild degreaser. Scrub the ring with a soft-bristled toothbrush. Dry the ring.

Before you start your straw set, make sure you have everything you need. Both methods will require the same items: drinking straws, bobby pins, scissors, and a water spray bottle. You will also need a wide tooth comb and a few hair clips for sectioning.  Cut the bendable top off of each straw you plan to use. If your straws are already straight throughout with no articulated ends, you can use them as-is. When using straight straws, scissors are no longer required. If your hair takes a long time to dry, you will also need a silk headscarf to sleep in. Your hair doesn't need to be clean when styling it, but if you do wash beforehand you will need to let your hair dry first. Avoid using a blow dryer to prevent heat damage.  This hair roller method can prevent hair from drying completely. If your hair type retains moisture and you are styling ringlet curls, try to get your hair as dry as possible before you style. This isn't as important for the poofy look, however, since you will be removing the straws before your hair dries completely.  If you have natural textured hair, drying it completely before styling isn't necessary. You can start your straw set while your hair is damp or wet if you choose. This step will keep your hair bouncy and help it last longer, particularly if it tends to dry out. First, use a moisturizing product, like leave-in conditioner. Combine it with one of the setting products below, depending on your hair type.  If you have fine hair, use a mousse or spray. If you have medium to thick hair with a natural wave, opt for a gel or cream. With relaxed hair, try a trio of leave-in conditioner, wrapping lotion, and castor oil. your hair. Separate a 3 inches (7.6 cm) “mohawk” section down the middle of your scalp, around your part and down the back of your head. This will divide your hair into thirds, which are generally good for hair rolling. Comb your hair out and away from your scalp and clip each section in place. Leave the first section you plan on styling loose. How many parts you will...

TL;DR in English: Gather your materials. Allow your hair to dry. Moisturize and use setting products. Section

Instead of making the final connections right away, it’s better to give the silicone caulk time to set up. This will prevent the sink from shifting and breaking the solid bead of caulk that you made. If you’re installing an undermount sink, you should already have waited 24 hours before putting in the sink drain. In this case, you can proceed with the last steps of the installation. You just need to do the reverse of the disconnecting process. Hand-tighten the water lines where they connect to the hot and cold shutoff valves or use a crescent wrench if needed. Similarly, use your hands to tighten the nut on a PVC P-trap or channel locks for a metal P-trap.  If your new sink drain is a little shorter than your old one, you can buy a P-trap pipe extension at your local hardware store. The extension can be cut to fit and will also connect in place with a nut that you’ll either hand-tighten or secure with channel locks. If your new sink drain is a little too long, you can cut off some of the pipe either at the top of the P-trap or the bottom of the drain. Use a hacksaw or pipe cutter to make the adjustment. Open the hot and cold water valves by turning them counterclockwise. Then, open the hot and cold faucet taps fully and let the water run for at least 2-3 minutes. Watch under the cabinet for any leaks in the water lines, drain lines, or elsewhere. Tighten any loose connections as needed.  Keep the bucket or towel at the bottom of the sink cabinet while you test for leaks. If you have a leak at a pipe connection, try shutting off the water, undoing the connection, wrapping some plumber’s tape around the pipe threads, and then re-making the connection. If you can’t figure out where a leak is coming from and/or how to fix it, shut off the water supply lines and call a plumber.

The top number of a fraction is known as the numerator and represents how many parts of the whole you have. The bottom number of the fraction is the denominator, which is the number of parts that would equal the whole. If the numerator is smaller than the denominator, then it is a proper fraction. If the numerator was greater than the denominator, then the fraction is improper.  For example, in the fraction ½, the 1 is the numerator and 2 is the denominator. You can also write fractions on a single line, like 4/5. The number on the left is always the numerator and the number on the right is the denominator. Equivalent fractions are the same amount but written with different numerators and denominators. If you want to make a fraction that’s equivalent to the one you have, multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number and write the result as your new fraction.  For example, if you want to make an equivalent fraction to 3/5, you can multiply both numbers by 2 to make the fraction 6/10. In a real-world example, if you have 2 equal slices of pizza and you cut one of them in half, the two halves are still the same amount as the other full slice. Many times, you’ll be asked to write a fraction in its simplest terms. If you have larger numbers in the numerator and denominator, look for a common factor that each number shares. Divide the numerator and denominator separately by the factor you found to reduce the fraction to an easier number to read. For example, if you have the fraction 2/8, both the numerator and denominator are divisible by 2. Divide each number by 2 to get 2/8 = 1/4. Improper fractions are when the numerator is larger than the denominator. To simplify an improper fraction, divide the numerator by the denominator to find a whole number and a remainder. Write the whole number first, and then make a new fraction where the numerator is the remainder you found and the denominator is the same. For example, if you want to simplify 7/3, divide 7 by 3 to get the answer 2 with a remainder of 1....

TL;DR in English: Identify the numerator and denominator. Know fractions are equal if you multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number. Simplify fractions by dividing the numerator and denominator by a common multiple. Convert improper fractions to mixed numbers if the numerator is greater than the denominator. Change mixed numbers into fractions when you need to use them in equations.

For a more interesting look, consider twisting them one or twice before pinning them. You wear high ponytails, low ponytails, buns, one braid, or two braids. You can even try French braiding your hair.  Put your hair in a braid the night before and take it out in the morning; this will make your hair wavy. If you have a little more time on your hands, curl your hair and put it in loose-side ponytails, or curl random parts and let it be slightly messy, or put it up in a messy bun. Consider leaving a bit of your bangs in a side parting and the rest of you hair in a high/side ponytail. You can do this with one section, on the top of your head, or on either side of your head in two sections. You can't do as much with it as you can with long hair but you still have some options for making it look fantastic.  In pressed time put your hair into a messy bun, or just brush it and wear it down. If you got up early and want to be adventurous, then take your straightener and straighten your hair. Then, just at the ends, turn the straightener out so you will get flicks. Use your curler or straightener (whatever you prefer) and curl your hair. Make the curls really tight or loose. Also, curl bits of hair and clip your fringe back. Apply a small amount of gel or wax to the palm of your hand and rub it between your fingers. Next, run your fingers through your hair and start fluffing it upwards, starting from the roots. Be sure to keep your head wrapped up with a silk scarf or a net to prevent your cornrows from getting messed up while sleeping. Wash and condition your hair before redoing the cornrows the next week. Use hair gel or hair spray to tame any new growths experienced during the week. Pull the headband down over your head so that it is around your neck like a collar, then tug the part that's in front of your up over your face. Position it so that it is resting right at the top of your head. Gently tug the sides of the headband behind your hairs.

TL;DR in English: Keep your bangs out of the way by pinning them back. Wear longer hair in braids, ponytails, or buns. Pin shoulder-length hair back using bobby pins. Curl or straighten medium-length hair. Use hair gel or hair wax to spike short hair. If you have ethnic or naturally-kinky hair, get it cornrowed. Keep short, naturally-kinky hair out of the way with a cloth headband.

Ask for official certification from a nationally recognized gemological organization, such as the Gemological Institute of America (GIA). National jeweler chains are a good place to start, as they want to keep up their reputation as reputable sellers. If you want a less expensive option, look at the selection offered by local jewelers and individual sellers. It is much easier to scam someone over the internet. Whenever it is possible, search for a reputable jeweler in your area that has a physical storefront that you can visit. You can visit a few stores before making a purchase to see if you are getting the best deal. If you’d rather shop online, you can buy aquamarine gemstones from jewelers that are certified. Try to find online stores that will include a warranty and certificate of authentication with your gemstone. Be wary of sellers who are random individuals with no certifications. The color of the aquamarine can show up as more vibrant in photographs than in person. If a price for a gemstone sounds too good to be true, look at where the gemstone is coming from and ask yourself if the seller can be trusted. Be wary of online retailers, since they can put up fake advertisements or embellish their ads with little repercussions.

TL;DR in English: Make sure your jeweler is certified. Shop in a store rather than online whenever possible. Buy gemstones from reputable online jewelers. Evaluate the price closely to make sure you aren’t being scammed.

Your kids or your spouse might want to complain once in a while about the inconvenience or the cost. Let them. Refer to the timeline and point out that the end is in sight. Whether you get together over dinner, breakfast or some other time during the day, meet to discuss progress and concerns. Different people may be home at different points of the day, so stay in touch with everyone. Use text messages, email, social networking posts and phone calls If the workers get different information and feedback from all members of your family, things will get confusing. Appoint one person to talk on behalf of the family. They might have to deal with some noise and disruption too, so letting them know about your plans will help keep the peace in the neighborhood.

TL;DR in English: Be available. Meet as a family regularly. Communicate throughout the day. Put one person in charge of communicating with the contractors. Have your family help you talk to the neighbors.

Keep the dog in the quiet spot, so he can rest and you can keep a close eye on him. Make sure that the dog does not participate in any activity such as running or playing. If the dog shakes its head or scratches due to sensations from the wound, he can re-open the wound and cause further bleeding. Another potential complication from vigorous head shaking or scratching is the formation of an aural hematoma, which is a blood clot between the layers of the ear. This happens when a blood vessel beneath the skin and cartilage breaks and bleeds into the ear cartilage. The ear will swell like a pillow. These need to be treated by a veterinarian. To minimize complications, you can use an Elizabethian collar (also known as an e-collar, cone or recovery collar) for two or three days. This will prevent the dog from reaching the ear with a foot. You can minimize the dog’s desire to shake its head by carefully cleaning the ear and ear canal. Remove any bothersome blood or debris in the canal or inside the ear. Another option is to create a head bandage for the dog. This is especially helpful if the dog keeps flapping its ears. You will need to sacrifice a stocking for this option. Cut the toe off the stocking to form a tube. Fold the ears back over the head, using a piece of gauze on the wound. Carefully slide the stocking over the head. The nose and eyes should remain open with the stocking placed just beyond the eyes.  Make sure the fit is snug but not too tight. You should easily be able to fit a finger under the stocking both on the head and the neck. Leave the bandage on for a day, then remove it and check the ear wound. If needed, you can replace it for another day as long as it remains clean and dry.

Stack up any cut brush (such as weeds, grass clippings, or shrubs) in a pile far from flammable objects to prepare it for burning. Burn the underbrush with a propane torch or flamer. Talk with your local fire department about local policies and gain approval for the burn before you start. Obtain a burn permit if necessary. Practice safety measures around fire to avoid losing control of it. Avoid putting debris with seeds into your compost, as this will make any weed issues worse.  Carbon-rich materials include: straw, leaves, wood chips, dead flowers, or shredded newspapers. Nitrogen-rich materials include: grass clippings, vegetable peelings, fruit rinds, or animal manure. If you own or can rent a truck, load up the back with trash bags of debris and bring them to your local dump. Call the dump beforehand to ask if they accept yard waste materials. Ask them about fees and whether they charge a flat fee or charge by weight. If you removed a lot of shrubs from the area, consider renting a wood chipper to dispose of debris manageably. Typically, gardening maintenance companies rent out wood chippers for a daily fee. Use the resulting wood chips as carbon-rich materials in your compost. Take extreme caution when using wood chippers, and follow the machine instructions carefully. If you have a lot of yard waste, call your local sanitation department and ask how much they charge for pickups. Waste management will take your plant debris and repurpose it as mulch. Typically, sanitation departments limit what they will and won't pick up, so specify what debris you have on the phone.  Keep your debris organized by size and material to make things easier for your local sanitation department. Alternatively, call a yard waste removal crew who can haul the waste away for a fee.

TL;DR in English: Conduct a controlled burn if permissible. The time from that it takes raw material to become decomposed compost can be 1 season or more. Visit your local dump. Rent a wood chipper. Contact waste management.

If your chest hair is long, trim it down as far as possible to reduce the chances of skin irritation. Use the lowest guard available with the clippers or a hair trimmer. Work over your dry chest from top to bottom. It will save you a lot of time and energy later. A comb and scissors can be used instead of a trimmer. Hop in the shower and relax for a few minutes. Wash your hair off under warm water, applying body soap if you would like. Warm water softens the hair so it offers less resistance to the razor. You can shave in the shower if you have a water-resistant razor. Smear a quality shaving cream or gel over the hair. Don’t hold back, as you will need plenty. Cover the area in a thick layer, but give yourself enough room to see what you’re doing. The cream or gel may slide off if your body is too slick. If this happens, pat your chest with a towel or air dry for a few minutes. Have a more comfortable shaving session by using an adjustable electric trimmer. Some body grooming devices have a separate razor side, while on others you can shave by removing the guard. These devices irritate skin less than razors do. If this isn’t an option, use a fresh razor instead. Start at the top of your chest. Slowly drag the blade down over your chest hair. Keep your strokes short and even to remove the hair without irritating the skin. Continue doing this until your blade is full of hair and cream.  When you reach sensitive areas, such as your nipples, be very careful. Work around them. Adjust the blade’s angle to reach any missed hairs. Some men shave by moving up their chest, which is against the grain. This leads to a closer shave, but causes more irritation, so it isn’t recommended. Ideally, rinse your blade under running water after each stroke. This may seem annoying, but it flushes out all the hair and cream. It is the only way to keep your blade fresh so it doesn’t leave behind stray hairs, nicks, or red spots. Continue moving down your chest in short, even strokes, rinsing out the blade at every opportunity....

TL;DR in English: Trim your chest hair with a hair clippers. Take a warm shower. Cover your chest in shaving cream. Use an electric trimmer with a shave setting. Shave down your body in short strokes. Rinse out your blade. Finish shaving your chest. Treat your body with an aftershave product. Book a waxing appointment if you experience difficulties.

Make sure you have access to a pickup truck or a vehicle with a large trunk or hatch for hauling your scrap. Salvaged scrap metal is often dirty, rusty, and jagged, so you probably won't want to carry it in the backseat of a passenger car.  Flatbed trucks are ideal for hauling scrap metal (so long as you have a way to tie it down during transportation). With these, you don't have to worry about damaging the floor or wall of the truck bed during loading and unloading (which is often done by crane).  If you will be hauling large scrap metal loads, take the weight of your cargo into consideration when choosing a vehicle. If you will be hauling multiple appliances at once, for example, you'll need a truck that can handle the added weight during transit. Scrap metal yards have inbound and outbound scales for vehicles bringing in recycling materials. In order to determine the weight of your scrap, you must weigh your loaded vehicle when you arrive and your empty vehicle when you have unloaded it. The difference in weight is the weight of your scrap metal.  These vehicle scales are usually manned by a yard worker who will record your vehicle's weight and then give you a visual signal that you are cleared to continue on into the facility. The scrap yard may have additional scales inside the facility with which individual materials can be weighed. This is necessary if you have multiple types of metals that sell at widely different rates (such as copper and aluminum). Scrap metal yards will unload your materials for you, but only if you have the right type of vehicle. If your materials are in the trunk of a sedan or in the back of an SUV, you will have to unload them yourself; yard workers are not allowed to unload scrap metal if the vehicle could become damaged in the process.  If you haul your scrap in an open trailer or truck bed, the scrap yard will likely use a magnetic crane to separate ferrous material (that which contains iron and is magnetic) from other metals. If you have your material on a pallet, the scrap...

TL;DR in English: Obtain a vehicle for hauling scrap metal. Weigh your vehicle. Allow facility personnel to unload your vehicle. Register with the facility. Get paid for your scrap metal.

Rather than busting into your manager’s office as soon as your hear the news, finish out your day quietly and go home to unwind. The disappointment may be too fresh to have a productive conversation about why you didn’t get the promotion. If your boss or the hiring manager tells you in person that you didn't get the promotion, thank them for taking the time to interview you. Avoid asking questions until you've had time to process the rejection. If anyone asks you how you’re feeling, simply say, “I’m disappointed. I really wanted it, but I’ll try again next time.” Even if you’re not feeling understanding, show that you can be mature in the face of disappointment.  Avoid gossiping and venting your frustrations with coworkers. It could get back to management that you weren’t being gracious. If the other candidate comes up in conversation, try saying, "They really deserved it," or "They were really qualified." Offer your congratulations the next time you run into the person who was promoted. Treat them the way you’d want to be treated if you’d gotten the promotion. Be friendly rather than standoffish or dismissive, since others will take note of these behaviors.
