Mix salt and vinegar. Pour the mixture into the drain. Rinse the drain with boiling water.

The first step to reducing at-home entertainment costs is ditching cable TV. Instead, choose an online streaming service. Subscribing to one of these companies can give you access to hundreds of movies, TV, and original content for usually lower cost per month. Review your most recent cable bills and find a streaming service with a lower monthly fee.  Popular video streaming services include: Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and Acorn TV.  If you're attached to a certain channel, look for a service that allows you to stream specific channels online (like Sling TV, CBS All Access, HBO Now, or Select TV). Instead of purchasing every song you listen to, try a music streaming service. Most services operate as an online library filled with songs that users can hear without downloading. Although these services often have an ad-free subscription for a low cost, many also offer free options.  Try well-known streaming services like: Pandora, Apple Music, Soundcloud, Spotify, Slacker, and iHeartRadio.  Test out a free trial before purchasing a subscription. Whether you're a bookworm or a casual reader, a library card can save you hundreds on at-home entertainment. Books (paper, audio, or electronic), movies, magazines, newspapers, and music are all available for free or a minimal annual fee. Some libraries even rent out video games or hobby supplies (like cooking tools or board games). Libraries also offer free community events like children's read-alongs, book clubs, personal development workshops, or holiday celebrations. You don't have to shell out your paycheck to get the latest game release; opt for a game rental service to play at a reduced cost. This option is especially ideal if you tend not to replay games and want to avoid reselling for less than the game is worth. Some services (like Redbox) offer games for a minimal daily fee while others (like Gamefly) operate on a monthly subscription model like movie streaming services. Share the cost of a music, movie, or video game subscription with a friend or a...

TL;DR in English: Purchase a cable alternative. Listen to music via streaming services. Acquire a library card. Rent video games instead of buying them. Split entertainment memberships with your loved ones.

Ten gallons per inch of your turtle is a general rule. 50 gallon (189.3 L) minimum for a baby turtle (younger than a year old) and 120+ for an adult. Make sure that you have a general idea of the size your turtle will reach when full grown so you are not blindsided with keeping a turtle you cannot maintain.  Decide on a land or aquatic turtle. Common turtles like box turtles will require a desert like landscape. If you want an aquatic turtle make sure there is dry land and adequate room to swim, and that your enclosure is sealed enough to hold water. A turtle needs a canister filter. A Rena Filstar XP3 or XP4 is highly recommended in keeping a turtle healthy.  Without good filtration your turtle can get extremely sick as old food and feces can build up. Even with proper filtration, you'll need to regularly change your turtle's water. When you change the water, make sure that the filter is not clogged. If you see waste or old food lingering in the filter, it may cause a clog that prevents it from filtering the water properly. You can buy a dechlorinator or water conditioner at any pet store. Remove everything from the tank including all of its basking spots and empty the water. Wash everything with warm water and anti-bacterial soap. Let rocks sit in warm water and soap. Wash the soap out thoroughly. Let the tank sit until it is dry.  Put everything back in and fill the tank with clean, non-chlorinated water. If it is a land turtle, make sure to replace with clean substrate on the bottom of the tank each time, such as sand, wood chips, or newspaper.  How often a clean is necessary will depend on how messy your turtle is. It is generally a good idea to do this at least twice a month. Make sure to wash your hands thoroughly after cleaning the tank. A proper diet for Red Eared Sliders and similar species should have the following proportions: Vegetables and water plants 50%; Commercial foods 25%; Live protein 25%. A turtle under a year old should be fed every day.  A turtle over a year old should be fed every...

TL;DR in English: Provide an enclosure with adequate space. Provide proper filtration for aquatic turtles. Clean your tank regularly. Provide a balanced diet for your turtle. Make sure your turtle has proper lighting. Maintain proper water temperatures. Look for signs of sickness in your turtle.

Handwritten letters are hard to read, and may not get any response. If you want your letter to be read and taken seriously, it's important to type it neatly using a recognized business letter format.  Use a standard word-processing application, even if you plan to deliver the letter using email. It typically is better to send an attachment than to write your letter in the body of an email. However, you should probably check with the embassy first to see what is preferred. Most word-processing applications have a template that you can use to create a business letter. These templates typically will set your margins and paragraph styles for you. Use a standard, readable font such as Times New Roman or Helvetica, in a 12-point size. Do not use script fonts.
#Search for templates. In most cases, you'll be writing to the embassy regarding an immigration issue – either on your own behalf or for a friend or family member. There are a number of immigration assistance websites that have letter templates for various issues.  These templates give you suggested language to use so you can more easily write and address your letter. Don't copy them verbatim, though. Read them carefully and make sure the suggested language suits your situation. If any of it doesn't apply, don't include it. Look into the background of the website before you use their suggested language. Most of these websites have an "about" page where you can find out who is in charge of the website. Make sure it's an individual or organization you can trust. Traditional business letters are written in single-spaced, left-justified paragraphs with a double space between paragraphs. Using a double-space means you don't have to indent the first line of each paragraph. If you're writing in a language that is read from right to left, such as Arabic or Hebrew, your paragraphs would be right-justified. The first line that you type will be the date that you are sending the letter. Your word-processing program may automatically insert the date if you're using a...

TL;DR in English: Type your letter on a computer. Use block paragraphs. Put the date at the top. Find the appropriate address. Write a subject line.

In a small bowl, pour 1 cup of salt. Add 1 cup of vinegar. Stir well so the salt soaks up all the vinegar. Continue stirring until the mixture is smooth and even.  Add a 1/2 cup of lemon juice and mix thoroughly to give your paste some extra declogging-power thanks to the juice’s acidity. If the clog is located deep within the pipe, or if you're leaving the lemon juice out, add more vinegar for a thinner mixture so it travels more easily. First, remove the drain's stopper. Then pour the mixture directly down the drain. Coat the entire drain so the whole clog is sure to absorb the mixture. Allow it to sit for 15 minutes so the clog can absorb as much as possible. For especially stubborn clogs, let the clog soak for 30 minutes. If you are unable to remove the stopper, add more vinegar to the mixture before pouring so it's thinner. Boil 2 cups of water with a kettle or pan. Then pour the water directly into the drain. Pour slowly to avoid splash-back, which may scald you. Also pour slowly so you can aim the water directly into the drain instead of splashing the basin, which may absorb the heat and cool the water on contact before it reaches the clog. Use boiling water instead of running hot water from the tap, since it may take a while for the hot water to kick in.

TL;DR in English:

A regular board, one foot (30 cm) long and six inches (15 cm) wide, should work well for your pistol. Wood in these dimensions can be purchased at most hardware stores or lumber yards. There are some tools you should have on had so that you can fashion the piece of would you found into a really cool rubber band pistol. To make your pistol, you'll need:  Pencil (or felt tipped marker) Saw Knife Rubber bands Nails (thin kind) Hammer With a pencil or felt tipped marker, draw the desired outline of your pistol on your piece of wood. You may want to refer to an online picture of a pistol to serve as a model for your drawing. Do this by catching one end of your rubber in the notch you made at the front of the barrel and pulling it into the jaws of the clothespin. While the clothespin is closed, the pistol will be loaded with a rubber band. To fire, open the clothespin and shoot the rubber band.

TL;DR in English: Find a flat, relatively thin piece of wood. Pull together your pistol production parts. Draw your pistol on the wood as a guide. Load your pistol with a rubber band.

To achieve tight ringlets, you will need to set your hair in small sponge rollers. The first row of rollers will go down the center of your head staring at the front of your scalp and ending at the nape of your neck.  Use a comb to section off a vertical segment of hair at the front of your scalp. This first section should be centered on your head. Do not make it longer than the curler itself or thicker than the curler. A section that is too long or too thick will not remain tightly curled. Unclip your first roller. Place the roller behind the section of hair. Slide the roller up the strand from the roots to the tips so that the hair is standing straight up. Tuck the ends under the roller and proceed to twist it down towards your scalp. Continue to section off your hair and set rollers down the center of your head until your reach the nape of your neck. Once you have completed the top section, you can set rollers on the right and left sides of your head. Work from the front to the center back of each side of your head. Section of the hair and set the rollers as you did for the top section—don’t forget to roll away from your head. Everyone’s curls will set at different rates. If you wet set your hair, leave the rollers in overnight and allow your hair to air dry. If you put rollers in your dry hair, you may opt to leave them in for anywhere from 15 minutes (for a slight wave) to 5 hours—your ringlets will become more defined the longer the rollers are left in your hair. After allowing your curls to set, remove the rollers one at a time. Comb your fingers through the ringlets to fluff and separate the curly strands. Finish your do with a spritz of hairspray or a small dollop of pomade. Brushing or combing through your ringlets will cause them to snarl.

TL;DR in English: Set a row of small rollers down the center of your head. Set the hair on the sides of your head. Allow the curls to set. Take out the rollers and style your hair.

The Elizabethkingia bacteria is found worldwide in the soil, water and reservoirs.  Since many items of our food systems come into contact with water and soil, its important to make sure you practice safe food handling techniques like washing fruits and vegetables.  Wash all of your produce before your eat or cook them.  Even if there is no visible dirt or if you bought organic products, it's important to wash every fruit and vegetable.  Rinse fruits and vegetables under cool running water.  You can use a produce cleaner if you'd like, however running water works fine alone.  Do not use dish soap, bleach, or hand soap on fruits and vegetables. If your fruits or vegetables have a tough or firm outer skin, use a scrub brush to help clean and remove all dirt and debris. Dry off all your produce after washing and store appropriately.  Also finish this process by washing all your utensils that were used and your hands. In addition to washing fruits and vegetables, make sure you keep your proteins safe.  Also, cook them to the appropriate temperature.  Store all protein in a resealable plastic bag on the bottom of the refrigerator.  Do not allow them to be over any fresh fruits and vegetables.  Cook whole pieces of meat (like a pork tenderloin) to 145F, cook poultry to 165F and cook ground meat to 160F. Also, make sure to keep foods either above the 140F or under 40F as bacteria, even the Elizabethkingia bacteria can survive in-between those temperatures.

TL;DR in English: Wash and clean all produce. Cook meats to the appropriate temperature.

These layers of resin are intended to improve the look of the part, not the strength or functionality. Allow each layer of resin to set up before putting on the next layer. This can take anywhere from a few minutes to hours, but you will be able to tell because the resin will get tacky (sticky) when it is ready for the next coat. Once you have applied three to seven layers of resin, it is time to sand it. You should sand out any imperfections in the resin, like dust particles or uneven surfaces. Take care not to go through the resin, if you sand the fibers underneath you will destroy the part. After you have sanded the imperfections out of the resin, you can polish it. You can buy a polish appropriate for your resin at the same retailer that you purchased the resin. Apply the polish with a clean, soft rag, and wipe it off with another clean, soft rag. This will give the part a nice shine. Make sure that there are no cracks or other deformations on the part. If the part is damaged, you will have to start over and make another part. If you don’t see any imperfections, you can use the part.

Clear your mind of work, school, kids, the news, or anything else that distracts you. Some of the ideas that come to you may seem corny, even to yourself, but that is the way love is, sometimes. Then, see if the big things are combinations of little things, and can be broken down that way.  Here are some examples of "she is beautiful" (other qualities may be broken down the same way).  Her hair is soft and smells sweet. Her lips are full and sensuous. She has a full, womanly figure. (Which may be broken down even further.) She has lovely, iridescent blue eyes. Her smile can light up a room. If you are making your list secretly, take mental notes to write down later. They may notice things or qualities that you really love, but are not even aware of. You may appreciate the absence of criticism, complaining, or other negative qualities.  These characteristics, being absent, do not lend themselves to obvious recognition. This may clue you in to things about them you never think about, but miss when they are not present.  This could be the scent of their hair or perfume, or the sound of their voice. This may be adrift from the "romantic" ideas, but these are qualities you may value greatly, when you consider them.  Things like cleanliness, punctuality, or moderation. Often, you may find you associate other things only when you remind yourself deliberately. You may even try to forget it, but later on, when you take it out, or even rediscover it, you may be surprised by how you take many things on the list for granted. Will they see it as a shallow, superficial gesture?  That may depend largely on the things you choose to list.  On the other hand, they may be flattered and happy you have spent so much time thinking about them.

TL;DR in English: Get a notebook and pen or pencil, and commit to yourself to keep it with you while you reflect on the qualities of the person you love. Set a time each day to simply reflect on the person you are writing about. Be honest with yourself. Think of the big things. When the special person is around, look thoughtfully at them, taking note of anything that gives you a warm, tender feeling. Listen to what their friends say. Give thought to the things the person doesn't do. Think about what you feel when the person is absent. Try to remember the practical points. Write all the things you think of in your notepad, then reread them, to see if they lead you to more discoveries about the person. Make your finished list, read it carefully, then put it away for a while. Think about sharing your list with him/her.

If you didn't have a professional cut your wood, use a circular saw to cut them to size. Mark of the end to be cut with a pencil and ruler. Afterward, pull the trigger on the rear handle of the saw and use your dominant hand to guide it across your wood while holding it firmly with your non-dominant hand. Always apply downward pressure to the wood with your non-dominant hand to keep the wood steady. Find a flat, open surface—such as a garage floor—and lay down 4 pieces of 2 by 2 inch (5.1 cm × 5.1 cm) wood into their frame shapes. Make sure the width pieces connect the length pieces vertically rather than horizontally. Now is the time to take note of any imperfections (such as a piece that's too long) and adjust them. Be sure you have enough frame pieces for your aviary plan and make sure each pair of height and width pieces are parallel to each other.  For a frame piece with a width of 20 inches (51 cm) and a height of 24 inches (61 cm), start by laying down the left and right length pieces. Afterward, connect them via the top and bottom width pieces. Don't attach your wood pieces before laying them into their frame positions first. Use a pair of tin snips to cut four 2 inch (5.1 cm) long pieces of plumber's tape for each wood piece of the frame. Align each one horizontally at the top and bottom corners of the length pieces and across to the width pieces. Now, drill two 1 inch (2.5 cm) screws through piece of tape each to fasten them into place to create an assembled frame piece.  Make sure 1 inch (2.5 cm) of each piece of plumber's tape is attached to each piece of wood. You can swap plumber's tape with corner connectors and drill them in using screws. However, this is more expensive and time-consuming.

TL;DR in English: Cut your 2 by 2 inch (5.1 cm × 5.1 cm) wood pieces to the necessary size. Lay down your wood pieces into the rectangular shape of each frame. Attach each wood piece together into frames using plumber's tape and nails.

Anhedonia, or a loss of pleasure in daily activities, is a common symptom of depression. Watch for signs someone no longer experiences pleasure in activities they once enjoyed.  You can notice this in subtle ways. For example, a formally social person may turn down invitations to go out. A co-worker who used to always listen to music at their desk may suddenly work in silence. A person who used to always be on the computer may suddenly stop using it. You may also notice a person just seems down or neutral much of the time. Someone may no longer smile as much or laugh at jokes. A friend may not seem happy or very present at social events. Depression often causes a pessimistic overall outlook on life. If someone suddenly seems to be frequently assuming the worst, depression may be to blame. While one or two days of pessimism may just be a bad mood, ongoing pessimism over prolonged periods may indicate depression.  Sometimes, this can be obvious. A person suffering from depression may say things like, "This is hopeless." However, often signs of pessimism are hard to catch. A person with depression may sound more realistic than pessimistic. For example, if someone is depressed they may say something like, "I studied so hard for that test, but I doubt I'll get a decent grade." This may sound like the person is simply looking at the situation pragmatically. However, if these kinds of statements are made frequently, they may point to depression. If a person seems consistently pessimistic for many weeks, this may indicate depression. Forced happiness refers to someone putting on a happy face for others. A person may deny anything is wrong and act more upbeat than usual. However, this mask cannot be maintained. As a result, someone who is feigning happiness may withdraw from others for fear of being found out.  While a person may seem cheery, you may worry that something is off. A friend may always be smiling when you see them, but you notice them pulling away. You  may realize someone who seems happy is turning down...

TL;DR in English: Watch for a loss of pleasure. Pay attention to pessimism. Look for forced happiness. Watch for mood swings. See if the person struggles to concentrate. Be alert to extreme guilt.

Psoriasis remission occurs either spontaneously without any known cause or due to the right treatment. If you find the right treatment, your symptoms may temporarily disappear, which will put you into remission.  Finding the right treatment may take some time. Work with your doctor to try different treatments until you find one that works for you. The dosage and treatment prescribed by your doctor may affect how you achieve remission. When you find a treatment that puts your psoriasis into remission, it may work for a while. However, your body may adjust to the treatment or what you need for your condition may change. This means you may have to change treatments after a while. Work with your doctor to continue treating your psoriasis. If your symptoms return even while you are under the same treatment that has been working, your doctor can adjust your treatment to try to find one that will put you into remission again. If you find the right treatment, you may achieve remission. However, remission is only a temporary state for your psoriasis. Even if your symptoms go away, they will more than likely return. If your symptoms start to return, begin treatment again immediately. Early treatment can deal with the symptoms before they get too severe.

TL;DR in English:


Look for basic industry information. Find out which companies hold the largest market shares. Research regulatory issues. Assess future trends in the industry.

Curly hair doesn’t behave the same way that straight hair does, and you need a stylist who understands that. Ask your curly-haired friends and family if they have a stylist they would recommend, especially if you love their hair style! You can also run a search online specifically for curly hair stylists.  Try searching for options like, "best curly hair stylists in Portland" or "curly hair stylists in Atlanta." Use websites like Instagram and Facebook to find local stylists. Look through their pictures to see if you like the results of the cuts that they do. You can even stop curly-haired strangers if you like their style and ask them who their stylist is. Once you find a stylist you're interested in, meet them in person. Most salons offer free consultations so you can decide whether a stylist is a good fit for you before you book an appointment. Give the salon a call and inquire.  Consultations are usually about 15 minutes and should be booked in advance.  Look up customer reviews of hair salons to see if they have satisfied customers. Be sure to ask the stylist about their experience cutting different types of curly hair. Pay attention to how confident the stylist sounds about your hair type. If you don't feel comfortable, or if the stylist sounds hesitant, you may want to keep looking.  Ask questions like, "Do you have a lot of clients with curly hair?" You could also ask, "What would you do to make my curls more defined?" or "What cut do you think would work best for my texture?" Bring along pictures of styles you like to show the stylist during your consultation. The consultation should be hands-on. The stylist should touch your hair and examine your scalp so they can really understand your unique curls. Curls stretch out when they're wet, which can make it hard to get the length just right. Although there are some great stylists who wet-cut curly hair, dry cutting is preferred by most curly-haired styling experts.  A good stylist may want to wash your hair in the salon and allow it to air-dry so they...

TL;DR in English: Search for a stylist with experience cutting curly hair. Schedule a consultation to meet the stylist before you get a cut. Ask plenty of questions during the consultation. Choose a stylist who dry cuts to avoid having your hair cut too short. Beware of stylists who want to brush out your curls while they're wet.

Spell check can easily save you lost points for misspellings. This should be your first step in editing your essay because you can have your word processor do your spell check and then take the provided suggestions. Always reread your sentence to make sure that the word processor is suggesting the right word. If you’ve misspelled a word that is similar to another word, then it’s possible that your spell check could suggest the wrong spelling, such as “then” instead of “than.” Take a break from working on your paper. It’s a good idea to give your mind a break, so consider taking a walk, stretching, or taking a bath. Then reread your essay looking for misspelled words, grammar errors, or typos.  Look for errors that your spell checker missed. If you can, ask someone else to proofread your paper. They will usually spot errors that you overlooked. As you reread your essay, make sure that your ideas flow well. You may need to add additional commentary or rewrite sentences to make it flow better. You may also decide to add in additional transitions, such as “additionally,” “also,” “at the same time,” or “similarly.” As you revise your essay, double-check that you’ve addressed your thesis throughout.  Combine choppy sentences. Breakup long, convoluted sentences into shorter sentences. Rewrite fragments and run-on sentences. Consult your assignment sheet or syllabus to see what formatting conventions your instructor prefers. Adjust your margins, font size, and spacing accordingly. Add your heading and page numbers. If you have cited sources, make sure that you include a reference page in the style chosen by your instructor.

TL;DR in English: Use spell check. Proofread your essay. Revise your essay to improve the flow. Fix your formatting.

Since you use your non-dominant hand less often than your dominant one, its muscles are much weaker. This makes it harder to write well with your non-dominant hand. Increase this hand's strength by doing hand exercises that work these muscles and improve your dexterity.  Warm up and stretch your hands before working them out to avoid injuries and pulled muscles. Doing bicep curls with dumbbells strengthens the muscles in your wrists and forearms. Squeezing hand grips specifically targets your hand muscles. Something simple like squeezing a stress ball will also help strengthen your hand. Do this while you’re watching TV or on your daily commute. Many instruments require coordination between both hands to operate. Play one of these instruments to improve your overall dexterity and get used to using both hands together.  Guitar, for example, requires you to strum with one hand and fret the strings with the other. Since both hands need to work together, this activity improves your coordination. Other choice include bass guitar, piano, and drums. On many stringed instruments, you can flip them upside down and play them the opposite way with your other hand. When you get proficient enough, try this exercise to further strengthen your non-dominant hand. Any activity you do with your non-dominant hand strengthens it and gets your body used to using it. This will benefit your writing. Start doing more activities with your non-dominant hand to train yourself to use it in your daily life.  Try brushing your teeth and holding a fork with your non-dominant hand. Buttoning your shirt with your non-dominant hand is a good exercise that requires more precision. Don’t do activities that could be dangerous if they aren’t done correctly. For example, driving with your other hand isn’t safe until you’re very proficient with it.

TL;DR in English: Do exercises for your non-dominant hand. Learn an instrument that requires both hands to play. Use your non-dominant hand for more daily tasks.

Take the curtains out of the dye bath and transfer them to your washing machine (if they are not already inside the machine). Run the machine through a full hot water cycle and set the rinse cycle to warm water.  If you can set the soil level of your washing machine, set it to "heavy soil." Do not drain the dye bath if you dyed the curtains in your washing machine. Simply run the machine using the water already inside. Add 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) liquid laundry detergent to the washing machine and run it on a normal to warm wash cycle with a cool rinse.  The first wash cycle should have washed away most of the excess dye. This second cycle should help set the dye. Make sure that the water runs clear by the end of your cycle. When the water runs clear, the dye is set and should no longer bleed off the material. As long as the curtains are made from a material that can go through a dryer, the simplest and quickest way to dry them will be to toss them into your drying machine and tumble dry them on low until they are dry to the touch. Alternatively, you can hang dry the curtains on a clothesline. They should air dry completely after a day or two, as long as the day is dry and the sun is bright. Most of the dye should be out of your washing machine by this point, but to avoid potential laundry mishaps, it is still a good idea to clean the washing machine by running it through another cycle. Add half a capful of liquid detergent and run the machine through a warm wash cycle with a cool water rinse. Consider putting a little bleach in the washing machine for this step, as well. At this point, your curtains should be dyed and ready to hang in place.

TL;DR in English: Run the curtains through a warm wash cycle. Run them through a warm/cold cycle. Dry the curtains. Clean the washer. Hang the curtains up.

Start by figuring out specifically what industry your chosen company is in. Industries are split up into categories by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). These are numbered categories and refer to a broad industry within the North American economy. NAIC's numbers can be found easily online. Then, do research to assess the size of the industry. Look for annual industry revenues and the number of companies in the industry. In addition, find figures on industry growth, including annual percentage growth and growth in the number of companies. In order to assess the company, you will need some basic information on its competitors. Start by obtaining a Standard & Poor's Industry Survey for the company's industry. This report contains financial information for the largest companies in the industry and ranks them by size. You can also get historical industry surveys going back to 1971. This information can be obtained on the S&P Global Market Intelligence website. Look for any barriers, trade agreements, regulatory rulings, or other government decisions that might be affecting the industry either now or down the road. These regulatory rulings can be either positive or negative in their effects on an industry or specific companies. Look for regulatory news on market websites like the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg. Look into industry growth, trends, and expectations for the future. For example, consider any new products or types of products that might transform the industry in the coming years. Or, perhaps the industry is shrinking as another slowly replaces it. Look for consolidation or expansion in the number of companies in the industry. How these factors affect your chosen company can vary dramatically, but it is important to understand what's going on in the industry.

Roll out an oval and smooth the clay. The smoother you can make your clay in the beginning, the easier it will be to form your face.  Depending on the size of your sculpture, it may be difficult to roll out a ball. If you're making a small sculpture, it shouldn't be a problem. However, if you're making a larger sculpture, you may need to sculpt out a neck as well.  Keep in mind the proportions of your subject as you form the oval. You'll be adding clay to make the other facial features, but the oval should resemble the basic shape of your subject's head. An alternate method to making the basic shape of a face is to create a silhouette based on your subject's profile.  Print out a profile photo of your subject. Make sure the photo is the size you want your sculpture to be.  Roll out some clay about as wide as you'd like the nose on your sculpture to be. Lay it flat on a clean surface. Make sure you have enough clay make a full profile.  Take the profile cut out and lay it on your slab of clay. Trace the profile onto the clay and cut away any excess clay.  This should leave you with a slab of clay that is a silhouette of your subject.  Start adding some clay to thicken the neck so you can stand your sculpture up as you add width to form the face. Using a needle or a rubber-tipped tool, draw a fine vertical line down the middle of the face. This is your line of symmetry. Draw a horizontal line halfway down your line of symmetry to mark where the eyes will be.  Halfway between the eye-line and the bottom of the face, make a second horizontal line. This is where you will place the nose. Make one last line halfway between the nose-line and the bottom of the face to mark where the mouth will go.

TL;DR in English: Form a ball. Try making a clay silhouette. Add guidelines to mark out proportions.

Saving a ball from the net is easy, if you have great reflexes. When the ball hits the middle of the net and bounces back, run and penguin slide to the ball at last resort if you cannot get to it in time. NEVER slide on your knee pads as this is harmful to your knees. Set up like you are going to bump, but not until the last second. Then, shrug and hit. watch the ball hit the net. Run, slide, and bump. Try to bump it behind you for another teammate to hit over. Do this by bring your arms farther back (like a miniature swing of the arms), or arching your back as you make contact with the ball.

TL;DR in English: Position. Hands and arms. Do this move,

Staying properly hydrated will help your muscles recover faster. Drink at least two bottles of water before you work out, and drink half an ounce of water per pound of body weight throughout the day. Avoid drinking tea and coffee because these will dehydrate you. Before doing anything that is ab intensive, you should avoid sitting or standing for too long. Take 5 minutes before your workout to put your legs up while you lay on your back. This will ensure blood flow to the upper portions of the body.  The blood flow will help flush the muscles. Protein is a very important factor in muscle recovery. Be sure to eat a protein rich meal (about 20 grams) within 30 minutes of your workout. Protein bars and shakes are an easy way to get this amount of protein on the go.

TL;DR in English: Hydrate well. Raise your legs. Re-fuel your body properly.

Begin heating a deep pan or wok over a medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of canola oil. The wok should be hot for stir frying, so make sure the oil has begun to sizzle before you add the main ingredients. Make sure the pan you’re using is deep enough to keep sizzling oil from splattering on you while you cook. Place the chopped onion and minced garlic and ginger in the hot oil. Toss or stir these together lightly until they begin to caramelize. This should only take 1-2 minutes. Searing will release the pungent flavors of the onion, garlic and ginger so that they can be absorbed by the cabbage.  The edges of the onion should just begin to brown once it is caramelized. The process of unlocking aromatic flavors from pungent herbs and vegetables is the first step in preparing many Chinese dishes. Throw in the head of sliced cabbage and toss or stir repeatedly to mix all ingredients together. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Then, pour in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of rice vinegar. Stir fry for another 3 minutes until the cabbage has just begun to wilt. Be sure to keep the ingredients moving in the pan or they’ll be more likely to stick due to the intense heat.  Stir frying is a very fast cooking method because the ingredients are all cooked together over high heat. Be careful not to overcook the cabbage. It should be soft and tender but still retain a little crunchiness. Remove the stir fry from the heat and plate it with an entree, or on a separate dish if it to be served as a side. Drizzle 2 teaspoons of sesame oil over the top and garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Eat it while it's hot! In China, food is thought to be freshest when it's still steaming from being cooked. This impressive, appetizing gust of steam is known as wok hay, or "breath of the wok."

TL;DR in English: Heat oil in a deep pan or wok. Sear the onion, garlic and ginger. Add the cabbage and stir fry. Finish with sesame oil and/or seeds. Finished.

There are many reasons you might be dating more than one woman. You may have just gotten out of a long, difficult relationship, or you may be someone who is naturally polyamorous.  It’s good to know whether you imagine dating multiple women as a long term plan or as something that simply suits you right now. It’s okay not to know what you want in the long term. But be ready to be honest about that with the women you’re dating. If you’re looking for long-term polyamory, look for other women who are also interested in that. If you are simply looking for hookups, try to find women who want that as well.  Most online dating apps allow you to state what you’re looking for. If you’re looking for hookups, don’t get involved with women who are looking for marriage. If you’re looking for hookups, don’t plan elaborate getaways or very romantic dates with a woman, or she may get the wrong idea. If you’ve never dated multiple women before, you need to spend some time getting used to balancing more than one relationship. Don’t try to go from being monogamous to dating five women at once. You can read books or blogs about polyamory and other lifestyles that accommodate dating multiple women. Over time, and depending on who you meet, your interests may change. If they do, be honest with yourself about your feelings. Don’t try to deny them, or you and others are likely to get hurt.  If you begin to fall in love with one person, or multiple people, you may need to have a serious conversation about that with all of the people you’re dating. Having strong feelings for someone doesn’t have to mean you stop dating the others, but it may mean that the relationships change in some way.

TL;DR in English:


Wear clothes that make you feel comfortable. Act confident even if you don’t feel so. Do small things to help others. Try not to stress if you don’t meet anyone on your first day.

During the abdominal palpation, the vet feels the bitch's tummy for the presence of puppies. The earliest date that this is likely to be successful is at least 21 days after mating. At this early stage the vet is feeling for an enlarged, thickened womb rather than puppies (which are like small blobs of jelly at this point).  The best time for abdominal palpation is day 28. This is because the puppies are now big enough to make a "bump" in the womb, much like beads strung along a necklace. By day 35, the each puppy is surrounded by his own fluid capsule and the vet feels something akin to a fluid string of sausages. Bear in mind that at 28 days each puppy swelling is a maximum of 25 mm (1 inch) in diameter, making it difficult to differentiate embryos in a womb from food in the gut or feces in the bowel. Furthermore, if your dog is tense and braces her belly wall, it can be impossible to feel anything worthwhile–the equivalent of trying to see through a window that has been painted over. Likewise, a single puppy can easily be missed, or mistaken for another structure such as the bladder, a kidney, or even feces in the bowel. Don't feel too frustrated with the veterinarian when she suggests a pregnancy test, as the abdominal palpitation can be inconclusive. The blood tests looks for high levels of the pregnancy hormone, progesterone. To be reliable, this test should be done after day 28. Before this it's possible to get false positive results, because the high levels might be a result of delayed decay of the hormone present during ovulation. However, after day 28, high levels of progesterone confirm pregnancy. Ultrasound scans are a popular way of confirming pregnancy, because in the hands of a skilled operator small changes in the womb can be detected as early as 18 days. The other advantage is that the technician may be able to give you an idea of how many puppies are in the litter, which is useful to know when it comes to the birth, or whelping.  Placental units can be visible from day 18, and from day 28...

TL;DR in English: Have an abdominal palpation to look for initial signs. Understand that abdominal palpitation can be problematic. Do a blood test after day 28. Have an ultrasound for early detection. Understand why radiography (x-ray) is not recommended.

You can't choose the right eating plan until you know what you want to achieve with your diet. Are you looking to lose weight, control your blood pressure, accommodate a medical condition, or something else? Write your goals down, as well as your reasons for wanting to achieve them. Keep a list of your goals with you. That way, when you meet with a doctor or dietitian, you can explain to them what you want to accomplish. Fad diets such as a Paleo or Keto diet are typically no more beneficial than a holistic eating plan involving balanced and regulated caloric intake. Look for an eating plan that makes it easy for you to get a controlled, balanced diet that can accomodate your eating preferences.  Research different dietary plans such as the DASH diet, the Mediterranean eating plan, or different calorie-restrictive plans. Weight loss typically occurs on any plan that creates a calorie deficit, so look for a plan that can help you track your calorie intake and still accommodate the foods you enjoy.  For picky eaters, tracking calories and macronutrients may be more appealing than signing up for any form of diet plan, as this allows you more flexibility in what you eat. Generally, a balanced plan is around 30% protein, 30% fat, and 40% carbohydrates. Try eating exactly as you normally would, but cut down your portion sizes. Eating 500 less calories a day will allow you to eat the foods that you like and also lose about a pound a week. For help tracking calories and macronutrients, you can use an app that counts your calories for you simply by inputting the food and the portion size. Look over your “yes” foods and think about ways you can incorporate these in dishes with different types of healthy ingredients. Go for moderate amounts of foods you enjoy, and higher amounts of foods that offer you nutritional variety such as fruits, veggies, and lean proteins.  For example, crumble a strip of bacon into Brussels sprouts to create a dish that has a flavor you enjoy and lots of vitamins and nutrients. Top your burger...

TL;DR in English: Set your goals. Look into different eating plan options. Pair food you enjoy with healthier foods. Prepare healthy foods in familiar ways. Add different flavors to healthy food you dislike. Look for micronutrients in your food. Go for higher quality food.

When you feel comfortable, you’ll feel more like yourself. This will make you more confident, which will help give you the courage to start talking to others.  Don’t try to wear trendy clothes or stylish shoes if they don’t make you feel comfortable. Wearing clothes that you’re not comfortable in will just make you even more nervous on your first day. Wearing clothes you like will also draw the attention of people who like the same style of clothes. Acting like you’re comfortable in your own skin can actually make you feel and appear more at ease. To act confident, stand up straight, smile, and try to make eye contact with other people. Or, try acting like someone who seems self-assured. Try to focus on things that are happening around you instead of yourself. This will also help you feel less self-conscious and more confident. Showing someone else kindness or helping them can make you feel better about yourself. Doing a bunch of small acts of kindness will help build your self-confidence.  For example, try to give a compliment to at least 1 person on your first day of school. Helping someone pick up something they’ve dropped can also give you an opening to make friends. Smile and introduce yourself as you hand the item back to them. Making eye contact and smiling at someone is another great way to spread positivity. The first day is nerve-racking for everyone. Everyone will be anxious and busy learning their new schedules. Many people will be too nervous to start talking to others. Stay patient and try to make friends on the second or third day of school. If you do something embarrassing on the first day of school, try not to worry about it. Laugh at yourself and try to move on.

Dry mouths tend to hold more odors, so have some water or another beverage before you smoke. This will not prevent your mouth from smelling like cigarettes, but it may lessen the strength of the smell. Cigarette breath is a tell-tale sign that you have been smoking. Make sure you thoroughly brush your teeth after smoking, and use a mouthwash as well. This will also help to remove the cigarette taste from your mouth. Smoking also causes you to be at a much higher risk for mouth disease, so adequate oral hygiene is a good idea all around. If you don’t have time to brush your teeth, make sure you have mints or gum to help cover up the smell of smoke on your breath. They won't remove the smell, but they might be able to cover it up. Even if you do brush your teeth, the mints and gum will help to further freshen your breath. Coffee will help to mask the smell of smoke on your breath. If you don't have coffee, look for tea or soda that have strong scents. These will help to cover the smell of cigarette smoke. Citrus is a strong scent and eating oranges will help to cover the smell of smoke on your breath. Peeling citrus fruits, especially smaller juicier ones like mandarins, satsumas, or tangerines will help to remove the smoky smell from your hands.

TL;DR in English: Drink water before you smoke. Brush your teeth. Chew mints or gum. Drink coffee or another strongly-scented beverage after smoking. Peel and eat oranges to mask the smell of smoke on your breath and hands.

If you get a fungal infection on your toenails or fingernails, you can see your doctor for some oral antifungal medications. Nail fungus can be treated with topical medication, oral medication or a combination of the two. Your doctor will most likely advise you to take the medication for six to 12 weeks; however, it may take up to four months for your fungal infection to fully resolve. Most topical agents cannot penetrate the nail plate and cure rates are less than 10%. The best-penetrating formulation of ciclopirox is a nail lacquer Penlac, which you apply daily for up to one year. The downside of this lacquer is that it is costly and recurrences are common; however, it is safer than oral therapy. When topical therapy is insufficient, oral agents should be considered.  Talk to your doctor about the benefits versus the risks of oral therapy.  Even with successful therapy, relapse is common.  Two most common agents used in oral therapy are itraconazole (Sporanox) and terbinafine (Lamisil).    These drugs interact with many other medications, both prescription and over-the-counter, so make sure you tell your doctor if you are taking any other medications or supplements. They can also have severe side effects, including irregular heartbeat, liver damage, decreased urine, joint pain, loss of hearing, vomiting, depression, and more. Call your doctor immediately if you experience any of these serious side effects.  Oral antifungals also require you to undergo continuous monitoring and lab tests to check for side effects. Oftentimes, the combination of an oral medication and a topical medication lead to the best results when it comes to clearing up a fungal infection. Your doctor might suggest you do a combination of these treatments. Your doctor can prescribe these to you if needed. For fungal infections that are extremely severe and/or painful, and that cannot be resolved with medical treatments alone, surgery is an option. The infected part of the nail may be cut out and removed, and the healing time will be the...

This is always the first step when loading or handling any gun. Consult your weapon's instruction manual to locate the safety feature. Common shotgun sizes are 10, 12, 16, 20, .410 bore, and 28. Shotshell of one gauge may be fired in a shotgun of another gauge, but doing so requires a special tube. Otherwise it is best to just select the proper sized ammo for your weapon. You can also secure the stock under your arm with the gun turned sideways. Make sure that the trigger and trigger guard are positioned on the side of the shotgun facing away from you. The "business end" of the shell should be pointing toward the end of the gun barrel. The business end is the end of the shell that the shot comes out of and is opposite the metal capped end of the shell where the explosive charge is housed. When it clicks, the rim of the shell should have passed the magazine catch. You can tell the tube is full when you attempt to load a shell but it won't go in. This will strip a shell from the magazine and load it into firing position. The shotgun is now ready to fire.

TL;DR in English: Make sure the safety is on, the chamber unloaded, and the barrel pointed away from you in a safe direction. Determine what gauge (bore diameter) your shotgun is so you can select the right size shells. Place the butt of the stock on your left thigh while sitting. Place a single shell against the loading flap just ahead of the trigger guard. Using your thumb, push the shell straight up into the loading flap until you hear and feel a distinct click. Repeat until the magazine tube is full. Hold in the action release button and pump the slide backwards and then forwards with a reasonable amount of force to load the chamber.

hower regularly. Cleansing your body regularly is an important part of a good hygiene routine. You should try to shower once or twice a week, as showering once a day can end up actually drying out your skin. You should also shower if you end up sweating a lot, such as after a workout or after spending a hot, humid day outside.  Make sure you wash the areas where you sweat the most, including your armpits, genitals, and breasts. You should also keep your feet clean and wash them in the shower. Use a washcloth and soap to clean between your toes and under your feet. After you wash your feet, dry them thoroughly. This helps prevents conditions like warts or athlete’s foot.  Wash your hair. Your hair type will determine how often you need to wash your hair. Finer, thinner hair often requires more frequent washing. Wash your hair when it becomes visibly oily and stringy. Finding how long you can go between shampoos may take a bit of experimentation, but it will help you build up your natural hair oils, and keep your hair strong. To keep your mouth clean and encourage fresh breath, you should brush your teeth twice a day. Brushing your teeth helps to remove food and plaque that can cause cavities. In addition to brushing your teeth, you should get in the habit of flossing once a day.  Brush your teeth for at least two minutes, once in the morning and once at night. Try using a timer or listening to a song all the way through each time you brush. Soft bristled toothbrushes are best because they won’t damage your gums.  When you brush your teeth, hold your toothbrush at a 45-degree angle to your gums, and brush with short, up-and-down strokes. Brush the outsides and insides of your teeth, your back molars, and your tongue. Choose fluoride toothpaste. Toothpaste with fluoride helps strengthen your enamel. If you do choose a toothpaste free from fluoride, be extra intentional about your oral hygiene routine. Avoid long-term use of whitening toothpastes, as these can be abrasive on your teeth. .

The tender forms of Zantedeschia are mainly cultivars of Z. elliottiana and Z. rehmannii (also called Elliottiana hybrids and Rehmannii hybrids), but may also include Z. albomaculata and Z. jucunda. These are often referred to as calla lilies. These can be recognized by different flower colors other than white and spotted leaves. These species and their cultivars are not so adaptable to soggy soil and can't stand frost. They are best grown in well-drained situations like in a flower bed with perennials and annuals or in a container. Treat as annuals or dig/move the bulbs indoors at fall before the cold weather sets in.Thanks to plant breeding, there are also hybrids of these two groups which can be hard to tell. Check with a website or plant expert for specifics.

Do not overheat the area in order to prevent the paint from becoming damaged due to overheating. Place a sheet of aluminum foil over the top of the dented area. This step should only be performed if you are using dry ice instead of compressed air. The purpose of this step is to keep the area warm while also protecting the paint from the dry ice, which can potentially damage the topcoat. The gloves will protect you from frostbite and other injuries that can occur when your skin comes into contact with dry ice or liquified compressed air. The rapid change in temperature from warm to cold will cause the surface of your vehicle to first expand (when heated) and then contract (when cooled).  If you are using dry ice, grab a block of the ice with one hand, then gently rub it over the aluminum foil resting on top of the dented area. If you are using a can of compressed air, turn the can upside down, and spray the surface of the dented area to cover the area with a layer of liquid ice. There are some basic principles of science at work here:  the pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas are all interconnected. While normally the can loses temperature as the gas is released, if you spray the can upside down the gas itself is cooled.  Either method will only require a brief application. The surface panels of most modern vehicles are made of relatively thin and lightweight material and they will cool very quickly. You will likely not see any change after the first 30-50 seconds of application (or probably even sooner than that). A few moments after you have applied the dry ice or compressed air, you may hear a popping sound that will indicate the dent has been removed. The rapid temperature shift will usually make the material reform its original shape.  If you used...

TL;DR in English: Apply heat to the dented panel. Insulate the dented area of the panel (if applicable). Put on the heavy-duty gloves. Apply the dry ice or liquified compressed air. Wait for a little while. Repeat the process as needed.

Pour all the ingredients into a food processor. Do not put the oil in yet. Keep it aside. The addition of mayonnaise is what makes the dressing creamy. Use the food processor to combine the ingredients until they are smooth. Continue processing until the onion is completely pureed. Slowly add the oil into the dressing as you process it. The dressing is best if served chilled, but can be served immediately. Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Some other spices and flavors you can add to the dressing include 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 1 teaspoon of paprika. You can also try 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce.

TL;DR in English: Pour ingredients into a food processor. Process the ingredients. Add the oil. Refrigerate. Try some variations.

This could mean anything-- do you go to the same school? Are you neighbours? In virtually every circumstance, there are plenty of opportunities to get on that person's radar. A great start is to put yourself in his general area. Find out what events he'll be attending, or where he eats lunch. The more you're around him, the more opportunities you'll have to interact with one another. The universal gesture of kindness, there is nothing so simple and profoundly effective in winning your crush as a smile.  Whenever you see her, make sure to flash her a smile! While it might be hard if you're shy, you should find it gets easier very quickly. The reaction will almost certainly be positive. If, for whatever reason, she doesn't smile back, don't worry about it! There could be a number of reasons she didn't reciprocate the gesture. You may have caught her off guard; it's also possible that she's simply shy. Interpreting her actions as a sign she's uninterested in you should only be a last resort. It sounds simple, but you might be surprised how many people tend to overlook this easy, though crucial step. Once you're in his vicinity, there should be plenty of opportunities to say hello. Don't feel self-conscious in doing this; very seldom does anyone respond negatively to a simple act of attention and positive feeling. There are a virtually infinite number of ways you can do this. Look to your surroundings and circumstances for something general to talk about. For example:  If you've got a class together: "Hey, would I be able to share notes with you? I want to see if I missed anything." If you're at a library/theater: "Any books or movies you could recommend me?" If you're at a sports game: "Hey! Which team are you part of/rooting for?" At a party: "Hey! How did you hear about this party?" A crucial, common mistake to make is to be too modest about your feelings. If you don't show signs of attraction, she might not get the impression you are interested in her. Although you want to make sure not to get direct with it...

TL;DR in English: Seek out opportunities to be around him. Smile! Introduce yourself by saying "Hi". Break the ice with her. Make your attraction apparent to your crush. Set up an opportunity for deeper interaction.

While it might take a while to get through baggage claim and find your way to the proper exit, fresh air or sunlight can help wake you up, alleviating jet lag. Exposure to more natural air is also important. There may be substances in the airport or airplane to which you are mildly allergic. These could trigger your headaches. Lessening exposure can help prevent headaches. Regardless of what precautions you took, most people feel a little "off" when exiting an airplane. Take it easy for 30-60 minutes to see if you start to feel better.  It might not be a good idea to drive right away. Take a cab home from the airport or have a trusted friend pick you up. Do not expose yourself to stimulants that can normally induce headaches. Caffeine, loud music, and alcohol should be avoided in the hours after a flight until you've readjusted. If your headaches are frequent or severe, you should make an appointment with your physician.  You want to make sure your headaches are caused by flying and not related to more serious medical concerns. Your doctor might also be able to recommend medications and lifestyle changes that could help alleviate your after-flight headaches. Most flight-related headaches go away within 30-60 minutes after they start. If your headache lasts longer than that, talk to your doctor.

TL;DR in English: Get fresh air as soon as possible. Allow yourself time to adjust. Talk to your doctor about the flight-related headaches you get.

Perfect for spring roll wrappers or lettuce, rice noodles are low in calorie and filling.  Toss 1/2 cup of cooked rice noodles with your favorite Asian dressing or sauce. Divide the rice noodles in half and layer each half into a butter lettuce leaf. Top each lettuce leaf with 1/4 cup of cooked ground pork seasoned with salt and pepper. If desired, top your lettuce wraps with 1 – 2 tablespoons shredded carrots, a few leaves of cilantro and a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds. Put a Mediterranean spin on your wrap by adding in some quinoa or tabbouleh.  These whole grains are high in fiber and protein and can help keep you satisfied longer.  Lay out a whole wheat pita bread and top with 1/2 cup of premade tabbouleh. Top with 2 tablespoons of a shredded parsley and basil.  Then sprinkle on 2 tablespoons of feta cheese. Tucking the ends of the tortilla in, roll up until the wrap is completely closed.  Slice in half and enjoy. A very common and tasty wrap is the buffalo chicken wrap; however, it's usually filled with fried chicken strips and high-fat blue cheese.  Try this version for a lower calorie wrap:  Smear a 12" whole wheat tortilla with 1 tablespoon of light mayonnaise and top with 3 – 4 oz of sliced grilled chicken strips and 1/4 cup of packed down and shredded romaine or iceberg lettuce. Drizzle on 1 – 2 tablespoons of buffalo sauce, 1/2 ounce of blue cheese and two to three diced cherry tomatoes. Tucking the ends of the tortilla in, roll up until the wrap is completely closed.  Slice in half and enjoy.

TL;DR in English:


Create a fresh baking smell. Spray lemon water. Make an air freshener with essential oils. Make an air freshener with perfume oil. Bring out some aerosols.

Before you begin working on your essay, it is crucial to understand what the assignment is about, and to learn if there are any specific rules you need to follow. Read your assignment thoroughly, and assess what you need to do. For example:  Does your essay need to answer a specific question or questions? Is your essay supposed to present a critical analysis of a source, such as a book, poem, film, or work of art? Is the objective to demonstrate your ability to present an original argument based on research? Have you been asked to compare and contrast two ideas, events, or literary or artistic works? Different instructors have different expectations regarding formatting. Check your assignment carefully for formatting guidelines. These might include things like line spacing, total essay length (in words, pages, or paragraphs), font size, page numbers, or requirements for cover pages and section headings. If the formatting requirements aren’t on your assignment sheet, check the course syllabus or ask your instructor. Depending on the subject matter and the personal preferences of your instructor, you may be required to use a particular citation style. In the US, for example:  Essays on subjects in the social sciences usually use APA-style citations. Essays on subjects in the humanities, such as literature or history, typically use MLA or Chicago Style. Essays on medical or health-related topics may use the AMA style, while other sciences have their own discipline-specific styles. The basic rules for most common citation styles are readily available online. For more detailed information, look for a style guide in your school library or bookstore. Don’t be afraid to ask your instructor any questions you may have about the assignment. Most instructors are happy to explain anything that might be unclear, or offer advice on how to approach the assignment. Unless you have been given a very specific assignment, you will probably need to pick a topic to focus on. Before you start writing, figure out what the main point...

TL;DR in English: Read the instructions carefully. Make note of any formatting requirements. Pay attention to citation style requirements. Ask for clarification if you don’t understand something. Narrow down your topic.

Some glass makers use punty rods to hold a glass piece during the crafting process. When it’s removed, it leaves a mark called a pontil mark. Fenton uses snap rings, so most of their pieces will not have a pontil mark.  Pontil marks might look like a chip in the glass, a bumpy lump, or a dimple in the bottom of the glass.  Fenton has created some offhand glass pieces which do have a pontil mark. These include some very rare pieces from the 1920s and a few contemporary hand blown collections. Study the pictures in your books to familiarize yourself with Fenton’s style. By studying existing pictures, you’ll be able to identify characteristics which distinguish Fenton from other manufacturers.  For instance, if you find a carnival glass dish featuring a peacock, you can distinguish it from other manufacturer’s of the period by noting that in a Fenton piece, the peacock’s neck will be completely straight, while others curve slightly. The base will have a flat, collared surface, or it may have a ball or spatula feet. The edges are often smooth, bracketed, crimped, or ruffled, and are one of Fenton’s most recognizable characteristics.  Fenton primarily produced carnival glass, which has an iridescent sheen, although some of their pieces are opalescent glass, which is translucent. Fenton also specialized in a form of glass known as Hobnail, which is covered with small button-like bumps. Fenton glass is extremely high quality, and it should be free of air bubbles or other flaws. If your piece has obvious manufacturing flaws, it is unlikely to be Fenton glass. Due to similarities between manufacturers, it can be very difficult to tell the difference between some pieces. If you aren't able to tell after examining your piece, look online to find a Fenton dealer or an antique dealer in your area who specializes in Fenton glass.

TL;DR in English: Check the bottom of the glass for a pontil mark, which Fenton doesn't have. Purchase a collector’s book or find a Fenton glassware catalogue. Pay special attention to the bases and edges of Fenton’s glass. Look for bubbles or flaws in the glass, which Fenton shouldn't have. Contact a Fenton dealer or an antique expert if you still have questions.

The main ingredient in liquor polishing is activated carbon, though adding your carbon to a full container of vodka may cause your container to overflow. You'll also have to strain the carbon out at some point, so you'll need:  Food-safe activated carbon (3-5 cups (1,020-1,700 g) depending on the amount of liquor being polished) Container (freezer safe) Funnel Strainer/colander You'll want a container that is larger than your amount of vodka, otherwise, when you add your carbon, you might lose some vodka to overflow. Place your funnel in the container, and pour your vodka from its original vessel into the container. Impurities in alcohol, like aldehydes, amino acids, and oils are likely the culprits making your cheap vodka taste foul. Polishing alcohol is the process of soaking it for a length of time in activated carbon to remove these impurities.  Rinse your activated carbon in a colander/strainer under cold water to remove any dust that may have formed on it during the packaging and handling process. Add 1 cup (340 g) of food-safe activated carbon per 1 gallon (3.8 L) of vodka. At minimum, you should allow your vodka to soak in the activated carbon you've added for a week. For even better results, you can allow the vodka to soak for a month, though after a few months you'll reach the carbon's limit and see little change in quality.  Shake the vodka in its container for a few minutes every day to ensure the consistently filtration throughout the mixture. Keep your vodka in a cold location, like your freezer, to make the impurities in it easier for the activated carbon to absorb. A regular kitchen strainer should be sufficient to catch your activated carbon while letting the vodka drain through into a container. You may want to nest your strainer into your funnel so the vodka flows directly down the nozzle of the funnel and into a container, preventing lost liquor.

TL;DR in English: Gather vodka polishing materials. Pour your vodka into your container. Add activated carbon straight to your vodka. Allow the vodka to soak for 7-30 days. Strain your carbon from your vodka.

You can make both a paper and a fabric scroll look old and ancient. The choice depends on what you are doing with the scroll. For example, party invitations would be best as paper scrolls, but hanging art and gifts might be better as fabric scrolls. The process of making the scroll look old should be done prior to assembling the scroll. Paint, draw, or print your artwork on the scroll.  When you make the paper or fabric look old, some colors of your artwork may change. The best artwork color to use is black if you want an authentic antique look. Use a foam paintbrush to paint brewed black coffee or tea onto the fabric or paper. Coffee will be much darker than tea.  Dip the paintbrush in the coffee or tea and gently squeeze some excess out. Paint the coffee or tea all over. Use different stroke angles and different levels of saturation. Try not to make it uniform. Having some areas darker than others is good for achieving an antiquated look. A few steps can finish the antique look on your paper or fabric.  For paper, after putting the coffee on, you can put the paper in the oven at the lowest setting for about 5 minutes, or until it is dry. You can also carefully burn the edges of the paper by holding a candle up to the edge of the paper and then blowing it out before it burns too far in. Repeat this process around the perimeter of the paper.  For fabric, after the fabric has dried, cut the edges to fray them. This will only work with some types of fabric, like burlap. If you have a fabric that won't fray, try painting extra coffee or tea around parts of the edges to make them darker. When the fabric or paper is completely dry, you can begin to assemble the scroll.  Attach the dowels with glue or by sewing. Add embellishments like a hanging ribbon or wooden ornament on the dowels. Roll the scroll or hang it on the wall.

TL;DR in English: Decide on making a paper or fabric scroll. Put your artwork on the scroll. Discolor with coffee or tea. Finish the look. Assemble the scroll.

Preheat the oven to 200°F (93°C). Put aluminum foil on a cookie sheet. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on the cookie sheet along with a one tablespoon (14.78 mL) butter. Turn off the oven and let the cookie sheet sit in the oven for 2-4 hours. This will make the house smell like you've just baked something tasty. Pour equal parts lemon juice and water into a spritzer bottle. Spray it around your home as needed. It will absorb the odors and leave a natural, chemical-free lemon scent. Combine ¾ cup (177.44 mL) of water and two tablespoons (29.57 mL) of vodka, rubbing alcohol, or real vanilla extract with 15-20 drops of any combination of essential oils that you enjoy smelling. Put these in an eight ounce (236.58 mL) spray bottle. Shake well and spray as needed Combine 2 1/2 table spoons of brandy (french brandy works best due to the caramel undertones), 20 drops of any perfume oil of choice, 5 drops of tea tree oil (for its antibacterial qualities), and ¾ cup of water. Put these in a 200ml (7 ounce) spray bottle. Shake well and spray as needed. If you can tolerate them, spray a commercial air freshener like Lysol, Febreeze, Glade, etc. Use these carefully, because they can be overwhelming. They will mask odors more than the homemade methods.

TL;DR in English:


Use your imagination to identify what you want in life. Set goals. Tell other people your goals. Visit a doctor or therapist for help.

Offer protection butterflies can't refuse. Prepare a butterfly buffet. Grow native plants. Install butterfly feeders. Take notice of butterflies in other people's yards.

Fantasies are not necessarily an unproductive activity. In fact, your daydreams can tell you what you want in life. While you may not become a professional golfer or marry a millionaire, you can discover realistic goals. For example, if you frequently daydream about winning the lottery, you may be  worried about money. You may want to start more effective financial practices. The best way to achieve your dreams is to set realistic and achievable goals for your life. Break each goal up into a number of manageable steps, and give yourself a date to achieve each step by. Soon, you may find your fantasizing turning into action. If you want to save more money, you might give yourself a saving goal. Set a manageable amount of money to save by a certain date. You can also make goals to get a better job or to budget more effectively. It can be easy to slip back into fantasizing. To keep yourself accountable, tell your friends and family about your goals. Once other people know, you may work harder to not let them down. Ask a friend or family member to be an accountability partner. This is someone who checks in on you periodically to see how far you have progressed. If you find yourself unable to avoid fantasizing, you may want to visit a doctor or therapist for more help. These trained professionals can help you identify any medical conditions that could increase your fantasizing or help you understand the underlying causes of your fantasies.  If you find yourself unable to stop fantasizing or if you feel that excessive daydreaming is taking over your life, you may suffer from  maladaptive daydreaming.  If your fantasy helps you cope with abuse or trauma, professional therapy can teach you healthier coping mechanisms.

TL;DR in English: Use your fantasies to identify what you want in life. Set goals. Tell other people your goals. Visit a doctor or therapist for help.

This will evaluate if you can remove some or most of it. Touch-up paint that can be removed with a fingernail is generally not well applied, although it will make it that much easier to remove from the vehicle. If the paint is loose on the car door but too firm to remove using only your fingernail, try to get it off with a toothpick. Slide the tip of the toothpick under one edge of the touch-up paint, and pry the paint upwards. Keep going until you’ve removed as much of the paint as possible. If the touch-up paint is loose enough, or if it was applied recently, you may be able to remove all of it using a toothpick. When using your fingernail or a toothpick to scrape touch-up paint from the car door, do not scrape it too hard. If you do, you might scrape off some of the car’s original paint and make the blemish worse. If the touch-up paint doesn’t come off easily with your fingernail or a toothpick, move on to more rigorous removal methods.

TL;DR in English: Scrape the car touch-up paint gently with your fingernail. Pry the paint off using a toothpick. Apply only gentle pressure when scraping paint off.

Whether it's something as seemingly insignificant as taking the biggest helping of cake and leaving none left for your sister, or a more impactful decision like devising a way to get the attention of your best friend's boyfriend, never hurt someone else to get ahead. Doing this often enough will backfire on you. Seek out the selfless choice, even when it's also the hardest. Resist the temptation to cheat, steal, or pull the wool over someone's eyes, even when you're sure you won't get caught. Are you the type who gets impatient when you have to wait in line at the post office or grocery store? When you start feeling your blood pressure rise, remember that every other person in the room has a life just as valuable as yours. Their time is as precious to them as yours is to you. Keeping this in mind will help you act selflessly when impatience threatens to get the better of you.  Don't take out your problems on other people. Having a lousy day doesn't give you the right to make someone else suffer for it. Constantly putting your own friends or family's desires above the needs of the greater community isn't truly selfless. How can you best meet the needs of as many people as possible, rather than just helping out those closest to you? Be a good example to those around you and go for the option that's best for everyone. If someone crossed you and seeks forgiveness, do your best not to hold a grudge. The selfless approach is to try to see the situation from the other person's point of view, and realize that it's almost always better to foster peace, love and forgiveness than spitefulness and hate. Forgiving someone who has wronged you can be incredibly difficult, but it's also exquisitely selfless.

TL;DR in English: Don't hurt someone else for your own benefit. Don't value your time more than other people's. Choose the option that helps the most people. Forgive and forget.

Today, if you want to send a message to a lot of people at once, using social media is likely the best choice.  Social media will allow you to quickly share information about your favorite charity to all of your friends and contacts.  By sending this information, you can help raise awareness and support your chosen charity. If you own your own business, you can partner with children's charity organizations that you want to support.  Partnering with a charity is a great way to send support and can also help improve your own business.  Think about some of these tips when considering partnering your business with a charity:  Let your customers know how much money your business has raised and donated to the charity. Mention the charity in your own advertisements, including your partnership with them. Include information about your favorite charity in your own publications. Ask the charity to recognize and share your contributions in their own outreach programs. A simple and effective way for you to inform others about your favorite charity is to simply talk about it.  Word of mouth should not be underestimated when considering ways to promote a certain children's charity.  Whenever you feel it's appropriate, try mentioning your donations, volunteer work, or other exciting things involving the charity you want to support.

TL;DR in English: Post about your favorite charity on social media. Offer free advertising through your business. Talk about it.

Pollinators like butterflies often need a place to hide from predators, and a small tree or shrub can be just the thing to make your garden more accommodating. Some plants to consider:  Privet (Ligustrum vulgare) Dutchman’s pipe (Aristolochia macrophylla) New Jersey Tea (Ceanothus americanus) Certain plants are more widely popular among the different kinds of butterfly. No plant will appeal to all butterflies - not even butterfly weed (Asclepias tuberosa). Some plants to consider to attract more of your brightly colored friends to your garden are:  Butterfly Bush (Buddleja officinalis) Everlasting (Anaphalis margaritacea) Hollyhock (Alcea rosea) Passionflower (Passiflora) Willow (salix)  Don't forget to ask staff at your local nursery any questions you may have about planting and growing any of these flowers. Most of these plants are available at local nurseries at a reasonable cost. When butterflies try to lay eggs on non-native plants, their offspring have trouble surviving. Maps with a distribution of plants native to your areas can be found at http://www.wildflower.org/collections. These tiny structures are similar to hummingbird feeders in that nectar is provided, but the shape is more like that of a bat house. The small slots on the side allow butterflies entrance while deterring predators and providing shelter from the elements. There are many local factors that might be influencing butterfly populations in your areas, so if you see that a neighbor has a larger than average butterfly population in her garden, you may want inquire what she has planted or how she has her garden set up.
