Take slow and deep breaths beforehand. Smile often. Maintain eye contact while you talk. Keep good posture and body language while speaking.

Add the frosting to the top of the dessert, several tablespoons at a time. Once you’ve covered the entire surface, use the spatula to smooth out the frosting and ensure that it’s evenly distributed across the surface.  If you choose, you can use a butter knife or the spatula to create a wave-like design in the frosting. Or, as an alternative, you can spoon the frosting into a pastry bag (or a plastic storage bag with a small hole cut from one of the corners), and, with a frosting tip, squeeze the frosting onto your dessert. You can spread this frosting on your dessert of choice, including, for example, cupcakes or refrigerator pies.

TL;DR in English: Spread the frosting.

For a formal letter such as an appeal letter, traditional business format is your only option. You typically can find a business letter template on any word processing application. If you have letterhead, you may want to use it for a more professional touch. Whoever you're writing to request an appeal may have specific information they require on all appeals. They also may have a specific form you must use. Find these out before you write your letter so you don't have to go back and make changes later. You may be able to find this information online or you may have to call somebody in the office. Typically it's better for you if you can get the information in writing, so you can make sure you're including everything. On a business letter, the date usually is somewhere at the top of the letter. This date should be the date you wrote the letter. Your word processing application may automatically enter the day's date. Do your best to address your letter to a specific person. If you can't get a specific name, at least use a specific job title. As a last resort, address your letter "To Whom It May Concern." "Dear Dr. Drew" is an appropriate salutation. Include the individual's title if it is important or relevant to your appeal. For example, if you're writing to the Dean to request an appeal from a suspension, "Dear Dean Drew" would be appropriate. After you've finished typing your letter, you'll print it up and sign it by hand. Leave at least four lines for your signature, and then type your name below the space. You may want to include preferred contact information under your name, such as your phone number or email address. You likely will have documents or other information to back up the statements you make in your appeal letter. Use traditional business formatting to list these attachments on the letter itself, so your recipient can confirm they got everything.

TL;DR in English: Use traditional business format. Check for any requirements. Date your letter. Use the proper salutation. Create your signature block. Make notations for attachments.

If you're not going to use honey for a few months, it may crystalize. While this process is normal, and reversible, it can be a hassle. To prevent crystallization, you can store honey in the freezer. You will need a container with a little extra room, as honey will expand some when frozen. If you just bought a jar of honey, you may need to use some of the honey or transfer it to a bigger container to make room in the jar. Some people like to use an ice tray to freeze honey. This way, when you need honey, you can thaw out one cube at a time. You can freeze honey in an ice tray and then transfer the cubes to a plastic bag. Once you've transferred your honey to your chosen container, place it in the fridge. Honey can last a few years when stored in the freezer. While honey lasts a long time in the freezer, it's never a bad idea to write down the date on frozen food items. Thawing out honey is simple. You simply leave it in an airtight container and allow it to gradually thaw out at room temperature. Do not attempt to speed up the process of thawing out honey.

TL;DR in English: Select a container for your honey. Put your honey in the freezer. Thaw out the honey when you want to use it.

In general, the first 36-48 hours of a gout attack are the most painful but you can relieve the initial pain and make sure you are doing all you can to end the gout attack as soon as possible. You can relieve some of the pain of gout by icing the joint. Use an ice pack wrapped in a towel and apply to the affected area for 20-30 minutes every hour that you are awake. Keep the affected joint elevated as much as possible while you ice it. This will help to avoid the blood settling in the area that is being iced. Your can take common pain relievers, such as ibuprofen (eg.Advil, Motrin IB) and naproxen (eg.Aleve). Use any OTC NSAIDs for as short a time as possible. Long-term NSAID use can increase the chances of a heart attack or stroke and can also increase the risk of ulcers and bleeding. Make certain you follow manufacturer’s directions exactly.  However, avoid any aspirin or topical aspirin products (eg. Aspercreme or any topical cream with salicylates). Aspirin products can cause more uric acid to deposit in the joints. Tylenol (acetaminophen) is not an anti-inflammatory medicine and is not likely to help. You could also take colchicine, but you may need a prescription from a doctor for that medication. For chronic control of gouty flares, you should take allopurinol, which decreases the amount of uric acid in the body. Topical analgesics have been shown to be very effective, especially for joints such as the toes, ankles, knees, elbows and hands. For example, Voltaren gel is a prescription topical NSAID that can greatly reduce gout pain. Talk to your doctor about the use of Voltaren gel Over-the-counter topical treatments that may be helpful include:  Capsaicin cream: Capsaicin is a substance derived from cayenne peppers that depletes Substance P — a pain signal.  Make sure you wash your hands well after applying capsaicin — it can cause an intense burning sensation, especially if it gets near your eyes. Homeopathic creams: These include Topricin, which contains a mixture of homeopathic pain remedies. Gout...

TL;DR in English: Ice the area. Take over-the-counter pain relievers. Try a topical pain-relief cream or gel.

Take some time to breathe so you can calm down. Breathe in through your nose for 5 seconds, and then hold your breath for 1 second before you exhale through your nose or mouth. Keep taking deep breaths for 2-3 minutes until you feel more relaxed. Many phone apps can guide you through breathing in order to calm down. Look for one on your device’s app store. Smiling makes your voice sound happier and will help hide your nerves while you’re talking to a group of people. Others will see you as a friendly, confident, and approachable person. Make sure to smile at appropriate times. For example, smiling throughout an entire eulogy at a funeral may not work the best, but you may smile if you’re sharing a funny memory. Avoid looking at a wall or the floor since other people in the group will see that you’re nervous. Pick a few people around the room to focus on while you’re talking so they feel connected with you and to draw them into what you’re saying. Avoid staring at one person for too long so they don’t feel uncomfortable. Straighten your back instead of slouching since this will make you look more confident. Keep your head high and your shoulders back so you can take deep breaths and calm down if you need to. Avoid crossing your arms in front of you since it will make you seem closed off.

TL;DR in English:


Establish routines. Get some sleep Eat well.

Never fake a closeness with your in-laws that isn’t really there. It’s perfectly acceptable to be polite to your in-laws without making anything more of the relationship.  Don’t get in the habit of referring to your mother-in-law as “mom” or “mother.” She is your spouse’s mother, but not yours. Only engage in physical touch you’re comfortable with. There’s no need for a long, drawn-out hug with someone you feel uncomfortable around. Many people find themselves becoming quiet or shy around abusive mothers-in-law. However, this can fuel the abusive behavior. If your mother-in-law does or says something hurtful, stand up for yourself or your spouse.  If you have children, make sure your mother-in-law knows and follows your parenting rules. If she refuses, remind her that you are their mother. You can say something like, “I know you have had plenty of experience parenting. However, we do things differently in our house, and I need you to respect that if you’re going to spend time with my children.” If she says something degrading or hurtful to you, you can say, “I don’t appreciate being spoken to that way. Please stop.” This is something you should have already discussed with your spouse. Your spouse may opt to spend more time with your mother-in-law than you are willing to spend. Your mother-in-law may ask why you haven’t been joining, or may be happy to have some time alone with her child.  You can let your mother-in-law know in advance that you’ll be spending less time with her. She may ask why. It is up to you and your spouse if you want to be fully honest with her. It may be possible to cut down the time you spend with her without having to talk to her about it. If your mother-in-law has already expressed strong disapproval of you and your family, she’s unlikely to change her mind. Remember that you don’t need her approval. It can be empowering to say this out loud to your mother-in-law. For example, if she tells you that your home is too small and cluttered, you can simply say, “We’re very happy here,...

TL;DR in English: Be honest about the relationship. Assert yourself. Place limits on the time you will spend with her. Accept disapproval. Set boundaries appropriate to the situation.

Raw black beans are harvested from the ground. As a result, it’s not uncommon to find small pebbles mixed in with them. To make sure your bagged beans are safe to eat, spread them out on a baking sheet and sift through them by hand, picking out any small rocks you come across. You don’t want to sink your teeth into one by accident! Most rocks will be light gray in color, which helps them stand out easily from the dark beans. It’s a good idea to give the beans a quick rinse prior to soaking, especially if they’re visibly dirty. A preliminary rinse will sanitize the beans and start breaking down the waxy starches coating the outside of the beans that makes them take longer to cook.  Stir the beans up from the bottom by hand as you rinse to make sure the water gets distributed evenly throughout. A good long soak may make a separate rinse unnecessary if you're planning on cooking the beans immediately. The container you choose should be spacious enough to hold the beans you plan on soaking, along with the water that you’ll be adding later on. In most cases, a serving bowl, saucepan or stockpot will provide the volume you need.  Measure the beans out into cup-sized portions—this will make it easier to round off your other measurements. A standard serving of black beans is about ½ cup (75g). Unless you’re fixing mass quantities in bulk, plan on soaking all of the beans at once. Breaking them up into multiple batches can add hours to your prep time. Drizzle 1 tablespoon (15ml) of distilled white vinegar or lemon juice over every cup of dried beans. The mild acid will help soften the beans before they even hit the water, while also ensuring that the water heats evenly.  A little acidity will also prevent the beans from becoming mushy or completely disintegrating if they’re overcooked. Fresh squeezed lemon juice is preferable as it doesn’t contain any other additives, but bottled will also work just fine.

TL;DR in English: Check the black beans for rocks. Wash the black beans in a colander. Pour the black beans into a large bowl or pot. Add a small amount of acid.

Making the conversation brief will help to reduce tension.  Don't try to recap every detail that happened since your break-up.  Focus on small talk or other easy-going conversation topics.  Focus on asking how their day has been, or how they are doing generally.  If your ex asks the same, then focus on topics that are light and friendly. Consider topics such as any current hobbies or travels, a funny anecdote about something that happened recently, your studies, your work, or things you've been watching such as sports or TV shows. Avoid letting the conversation linger.  When it starts to feel uncomfortable, excuse yourself or say that you need to go.  Consider saying, "It was nice seeing you, but I need to head to my class," or "I'm on my way to another event.  Please excuse me and have a good evening!" When you meet someone who has hurt you, you may want to talk with them about that pain.  An unexpected encounter with your ex is not the time to rehash your relationship and its past problems.  Be aware that brief meetings with your ex shouldn't turn into venting sessions or a time to start arguments.  Avoid being angry or trying to stir drama. Be understanding that your ex may also have awkward feelings about an unexpected meeting. Ignoring and pretending that your ex doesn't exist may feel easier, but it can be immature or irresponsible. At a minimum, smile and nod to your ex.  If you feel that you can't talk with them, then this is basic courtesy. If you're running into your ex, and you're with your new partner or date, avoid trying to show how much you've "moved on" from the relationship by kissing or showing large displays of affection.  Act as you would normally when in public.  For example, let's say you're at a friend's party, and your ex shows up unexpectedly.  Avoid trying to act differently just because your ex is there.  Try to talk with your ex and show that you accept them there.  But if your ex is making you very uncomfortable, consider finding a different space at the party or leaving the...

TL;DR in English: Keep the conversation short and sweet. Be respectful. Avoid using this moment as a way to make your ex jealous. Know your limits.

If you tickle her in front of a bunch of people, it can be embarrassing--both for her and for the people around you. It is best to tickle her somewhere private where you both feel comfortable. Tickling is not always appropriate. If she is very angry, sad, or she is trying to focus on something important, it's probably not a good time to tickle her. It might make you seem insensitive and upset her further.  If she is sad, try giving her a hug instead. You can maybe give her a little tickle around the ribs if she starts feeling better. Try and remember if she has ever told you that she hates to be tickled. You should take her at her word and know that tickling is not a welcome touch. Your girlfriend might not be comfortable being touched in all of her ticklish spots. After all, our most ticklish areas are also the most vulnerable. You may want to do a couple quick tests before trying to tickle her. If she makes any indication that she's uncomfortable, know that spot is off-limits for tickling.  When you are laying down, try running your toes lightly along the bottoms of her feet and see how she reacts.  When her arms are raised or you are hugging her, put your hand near her armpit. Some girls might be worried about sweat and won't want you to touch them there. Place your hand on her hip or stomach. Notice if she removes your hand or seems to welcome your touch.

TL;DR in English: Make sure you are in the right setting. Make sure she is in a good mood. Know which areas are off-limits.

Having routines in your life helps you cope with the trauma by giving you regular events to look forward to and by giving you stability. Continue any routines you had before the traumatic event and create new routines to help you cope.  Get together with friends and family on a regular basis. For example, have dinner with your family every weekend or go to the gym with a friend twice a week. Have specific days and times that you do things. For example, check your email in the morning, bathe the dog on Thursday evenings, or clean up on the weekends. Schedule time for journaling and other coping strategies like meditation, counseling sessions, or support groups. If you break a routine, don't beat up on yourself. Simply try to get back on schedule tomorrow. . One common symptom of trauma is insomnia and problems sleeping. Coupling insomnia with the stress of the traumatic event can be extremely harmful to you. Having a regular bedtime and waking time is one way to return to normal life and cope with the traumatic event.  Try stretching, taking a warm bath, or doing something relaxing before you lie down for bed. Put away electronic devices an hour before bed, as the blue light emitted from smartphones, tablets, laptops, TVs, and similar devices make it difficult for you to fall asleep. If you have problems sleeping that last more than a few days, consult a medical professional for help. Many people experience changes in their eating habits after a traumatic event. Some people eat to cope with the stress, while others lose their appetite and have trouble eating.  Make sure you are getting regular meals throughout the day. Try to eat healthy foods like fruits and vegetables that will provide your body with the nutrients it needs to function at its best.

It is important to note that these alternative remedies are not backed by scientific evidence — evidence that they work is anecdotal, or based on personal experience and word of mouth. Without scientific studies to prove they are effective, there is no way to know if alternative treatments are helpful at all in treating pinworm. If you want to try an alternative method, talk to your doctor first. These alternative methods should still be undertaken in combination with medication from your doctor, and should not considered to be medical therapies by themselves. Garlic is thought to be a good home remedy to help get rid of pinworms. First, eat lots of fresh garlic. The garlic may help reduce and kill the pinworms when you have a bowel movement. You can also make a garlic paste to apply around the anal area. The garlic may kill the eggs and the oil will help soothe the itching.  To make the paste, crush two to three cloves of fresh garlic. Add a few teaspoons of castor oil or mineral oil. Make sure you add enough to get a paste-like consistency. You can also make a paste by adding garlic to petroleum jelly. Make sure to discuss home remedies with your doctor before using them. Turmeric has been shown in lab studies to kill parasites, though researchers are unsure if it kills parasites in humans; however, spicy foods, such as turmeric, are thought to be an effective cure against pinworms. Take 300 mg of turmeric in the form of a capsule three times a day.  You may also consider making a tea with turmeric. Steep one teaspoon of turmeric in one cup of hot water for five to 10 minutes. Drink two to four cups. Don't take turmeric if you use blood thinners because it increases the risk of bleeding. The wormwood herb has been traditionally used to help expel worms from the digestive tract. Add a three to four drops of wormwood tincture to a cup of warm water. Have your child drink one cup a day. Adults can drink two cups a day.  Talk to your doctor before using wormwood. Don't take wormwood if you take anti-seizure...

TL;DR in English: Understand the limitations of natural remedies. Use garlic. Try turmeric. Drink wormwood tea.

It’s not up to you whether your spouse is transgender or not. Your spouse has taken a big step in disclosing a big secret to you, and it’s highly unlikely they can or are willing to change their mind. Instead of arguing with them or telling your opinions, respect what they say and accept it as truth. Whether you agree with their actions or not does not mean your opinion will change anything. Listen intently to what they say and resist the urge to jump in or respond right away.  Your spouse wants to be heard and understood, not argued with. Do your best to listen and accept what they say. Ask for time to digest the information, if you need it. Also, if you are feeling anger, make sure to express that your anger is not directed toward them but rather your emotion is about the situation you now find yourself in. Say, “This is a lot to take in, but I respect what you’re saying, even though I’m struggling to understand.” Some people express being transgender as cross-dressing and others want reassignment. Ask your spouse how they want to express themselves. Having more information about their needs and desires can help you understand what they want and how they want to express themselves. Ask your spouse, “What do you want to do as a result of being transgender? How do you wish to express yourself? How will this affect me?” You might feel confused and have lots of questions. Ask your spouse about your questions or do some internet research. If you’re too shocked or surprised when your spouse initially comes out, spend a few days or weeks writing a list of questions you’d like answered. If you’re unfamiliar with terms such as transgender, spend some time educating yourself and better understanding what they mean.   For example, you may wonder, “Is my spouse gay?” Learn the difference between gender identity and sexual orientation by asking your spouse or learning more about these terms. Most people who are transgender do not identify as gay.  Joining an online community or doing an internet search can help to...

TL;DR in English: Respect their words and actions. Talk about their decisions. Ask some questions. Follow-up on discussions.

When you make the appointment, explain that you would like to schedule a consultation to discuss options for closing a gap or gaps between your teeth. These notes will help you to remember specifically what you want to change about your smile and they may help your dentist make the best recommendation for you. You may also want to write down some questions about your preferred treatment options so that you can remember to ask you dentist during your consultation. Try to be concise and precise about your wishes so your dentist can provide you the exact treatment plans for your needs. If your dentist suggests a treatment plan that does not meet your needs or expectations, speak up! Ask why your dentist has suggested this treatment option over something else. It is possible that your dentist may have a very good reason for suggesting a particular treatment, but you’ll never know unless you ask. If you don’t agree with your dentist’s reasons for recommending a specific plan of treatment, don’t feel obligated to accept this option. You can always have a consultation with a different dentist to see if the recommendations are the same. If you agree with your dentist’s recommendation, now is you time to find out all of the particulars of the procedure and what you will need to do in order to ensure the best outcome.

TL;DR in English: Schedule an appointment with your dentist. Bring your notes with you to the appointment. Be assertive. Ask about the procedure and aftercare.

You'll be using a series of stencils to apply layers of paint to your board. The unpainted areas left behind by your stencils will form the design of your board. A simple, stencil-free way of achieving the same effect involves covering areas of your board with tape in creative patterns. , if applicable. You won't need to do this if you are simply using tape to create designs in your board. More complicated designs and shapes with arcs, like circles, will likely need a stencil.

Turn off your faucets and other water appliances. Find your main water shut-off valve. Cut off water to your house. Find your house’s water meter. Remove the water meter cover. Check the water meter for activity.

Put on a very normal outfit, like jeans and T-shirt, but add something ridiculous. Like a big gorilla mask. Of course, you could also go with strange clothing all the way. You might want to invest in things like suspenders, top hats, parasols, glitter vests, canes, ribbons, army boots, hippie or (real) vintage things, neon things, glowsticks, or rainbow suspenders. The trick is to have basic staples: plain T-shirts in varying colors and a couple pairs of blue jeans, maybe in gray, paired with freaky accessories. Pick a certain state, food, person, or animal. Make them very public and insane. Maybe you could be obsessed with the Hindenberg disaster, labradoodles, or the actor Charles Nelson Riley. Learn as much as possible about unusual and specific historical trivia and bring it up more or less at random. Pick something you're genuinely interested to make it worth your while. Just because you're buying a new coat doesn't mean you can't go to the zoo on the way there. Plans should be broken if you think of a more exciting plan. Always let spontaneity trump whatever it is you thought was more important. Secret to random success? Listening closely to the conversation and responding with something that'll come across as off-the-wall at an appropriate moment. It's not appropriate to interject a "random" gag when your girlfriend is trying to tell you about how she feels, or when your parents are scolding you about not cleaning your room. Listen to what other people say to find a good in. Then jump. Good times for a "random" joke? When a conversation dies. You're in a group and everyone's being boring, talking about the same old, same old? Tell them all about Star Trek: The Next Generation, a show that ended like decades ago. Why be your regular old self? Only refer to yourself as "Lord Steven" or "Captain Theresa." Better yet, invent your own. If you use an adjective, make sure it doesn't usually apply to people in normal circumstances. If You use a noun, make it an uncommon one, or one in another language....

TL;DR in English: Dress in unusual clothing combinations. Form unusual obsessions. Make plans and change them mid-way. Listen. Add a title to your name.

Put your most important ID into the little plastic ID window pocket. This will normally be your driver’s license, if you have one, or some other type of photo ID.  A single form of photo ID is usually sufficient for any situations that you might run into where you need to present it, so there’s no need to carry more. Leave other important forms of ID, such as a social security card, in a safe place at home. There’s no need to carry sensitive forms of ID around, and you definitely don’t want to lose it if your wallet gets misplaced or stolen. You will usually want your debit card so that you can withdraw cash when needed. Select 1-2 credit cards that you use regularly to carry in addition to your debit card.  Keep all these bank cards near each other in your wallet, in separate card slots, so that you can easily find them at a cash register or when paying a bill. Leaving some cards at home will also ensure that you have backups in case you lose your wallet. It’s always a good idea to carry some cash with you in case you run into a situation where you can’t pay with a card. Organize about $30-50 in bills by their denomination and stick them in the slot for cash in your wallet. If you typically take out cash from ATMs in large sums, then leave most of it at home and just take an amount with you that you might actually end up using while out and about. Look through the other piles of cards that were in your wallet and decide which ones you are likely to use. Group similar cards together in the same slots of your wallet. If there are cards that you want to keep, but don’t use much, just leave them in a drawer at home and grab them on the way out the door if you are headed somewhere that you want to use one.

TL;DR in English: Put only the ID that you actually need and use into your wallet. Choose 2-3 credit and debit cards to carry in your wallet. Organize a small sum of cash by value and put it in the bill holder. Carry only the membership and loyalty cards you use regularly.

Most birds will need about a week to get used to their new space. Keep their environment quiet during this time, and ensure that you and everyone else in your family give the birds the time and space they need during this adjustment period. Keep pets away from the cage or aviary to avoid traumatizing your new birds. It may be a good idea to keep young children away from your new pigeons during the first week or so. Children may not fully understand why they have be quiet or calm around the birds, and this may cause the birds to think they're predators. As your pigeons get used to you and their new home, it's important that they don't become scared of you. Keep your hands behind your back whenever you approach the cage, and avoid sudden movements. Speak, sing, or coo softly to the birds to comfort them and make them familiar with the sound of your voice. As your birds begin to become more comfortable with your presence, spend more time with them. If your birds are still hiding or cowering when you're near their enclosure, give them more time. If not, study or read next to their cage or aviary for a few hours each day. Reach through the bars or wire mesh of the birds' cage or aviary to provide treats. At first, simply place the treats on the ground. This will let the birds know that you're a source of food and care. Slowly, the birds should begin to take treats directly from your hands. Stay outside of their enclosure the first few times you do this. The security of the cage or aviary will let the bird know they're safe. Once they've eaten out of your hands a few times, either open the cage door or let yourself into the aviary to feed them more directly. Once your indoor birds are responding to your presence and eating out of your hand, they're probably ready to be allowed out of their cage. Indoor birds need to spend time outside of their enclosure daily to keep their minds and bodies healthy, so start this process as soon as you feel the birds are ready.  If you're worried about getting pigeon poop in your...

TL;DR in English: Stay patient with new birds as they adjust to your home. Keep your movements and voice calm around your pigeons. Spend time near your birds' cage or aviary to introduce yourself. Feed your birds treats while they're in their enclosures. Let indoor birds explore your home once they're comfortable. Avoid free-flying any domesticated pigeons. Let your birds come to you.

Because bleaching is so tough on the hair and can severely dehydrate it, you must make sure that it’s properly moisturized beforehand. For approximately two weeks before you bleach, do a deep conditioning mask twice a week to ensure your hair is fully hydrated. If your hair is extremely dry, you may want to use the deep conditioning treatment as much as three times a week leading up to the bleaching. You can purchase bleach powder at beauty supply stores, but you must mix it with a developer before you apply it to your hair. Add the amount specified by the packaging for the bleach and developer to a non-metallic bowl and stir them together well.  Developer comes in different strengths. To lighten your hair and limit the damage, opt for a 30-volume developer. If your scalp is very sensitive, though, you may want to use a 20-volume developer. If you’re new to bleach, you might want to start with a 10- or 20-volume developer. This will let you go through the process a bit more slowly, though you may not get your desired shade immediately. While bleach works best on virgin hair, you can still use it on hair that’s been colored before. Bleaching damage is usually worse the darker that you hair is. To get the best coverage, use a dye or tint brush to paint the bleach mixture onto your hair. Use the pointed end of the brush to part your hair so you can get as close to the roots as possible. Carefully brush the bleach mixture through to the ends of your hair.  Be sure to wear rubber gloves when you’re applying the bleach mixture to your hair. If you don’t mind having some roots showing, you may prefer not bringing the bleach all the way to your scalp. That can help limit the damage to your follicles. After you’ve applied the bleach all over your hair, allow it to sit for approximately 30 to 45 minutes. Check on your hair every 15 minutes or so until it reaches your desired shade – whether light blond, yellow, or medium brown.  Refer to the instructions that came with your bleach, as different brands have different...

TL;DR in English: Deep condition regularly beforehand. Mix the bleach with a developer according to the package instructions. Apply the bleach to the hair with a tint brush. Let the bleach sit for about half an hour. Rinse the beach out your hair. Work a toner through the hair and let it sit. Wash out the toner and apply a conditioning mask.

So you can check your water meter for signs of a leak, turn off every faucet in your house and make sure common water appliances like your washing machine and dishwasher are not on. If anything remains on, cutting off your water may damage them or your water meter may give you a false positive reading. In cold regions, look for the valve inside your house in places like the basement or garage. In warmer areas, the valve may be located on a pipe on the side of the house or in the ground near your water meter. If your water valve has only one visible valve wheel, turn it clockwise to shut off your water supply. If you water valve has two visible valve wheels, turn off the one closest to your house and leave the other wheel, connected to the street-side valve, alone.  Try turning on a faucet far away from the water valve to make sure the water is cut off. If you have older pipes, your valve may leak or creak when turned off. Look for a water meter inside your yard or by the sidewalk surrounding your house. Typically, it will be inside an iron box or covered by a metal plate. Modern water meter boxes are typically labeled as such for clarity. If you can’t find your water meter, call your local public facilities office for advice on where water meters in your area are typically located. Some water meter covers can be simply picked up by hand or pried off with a screwdriver, pair of pliers, or crowbar. Others may have a standard or pentagon nut holding them down, in which case you’ll need a standard or pentagon wrench to remove them.  If you haven’t examined your meter for a while, watch out for cobwebs and bugs. For safety, wear thick working gloves when prying off the cover. Though water meters are all built differently, they will each have a method of tracking water usage. This may be in the form of a sweep hand (a clock-like hand covering the meter), a leak indicator (a small triangle, sailing wheel, or other object), or an odometer (a row of numbers). With your appliances off, see if your pipes are leaking by...

The operative word is clean. The slightest bit of contamination can spoil the rum. Before you start, make sure you're dealing with the cleanest ingredients and a sanitary area. Clean and then submerge any utensils you will be using in boiling water. Turn the heat off the boiling water and soak your pot or barrel in the near-boiling water. Then dump the water. This will help kill off any potentially harmful germs. The sugar will dissolve easily, but the molasses will be tougher dissolve, as it is very sticky. Try not to boil the water. Continue to let it heat up until bubbles just start to form, and then turn the burner off. You may find it helpful to take out about 1 liter of the mash in a jug first; try dissolving the yeast in the smaller jug. Then, when the mixture begins to foam up, incorporate with the rest of the wort.

TL;DR in English: Begin by placing 20 L of water in a clean boiler. Dissolve both the sugar and molasses in 20 liters of water over medium heat. Cool the solution to 28 °C (82 °F) and add the hydrated yeast.

This will boost your confidence and shows the interviewers that you did your homework and care enough to learn more.  Read the company website and press releases, and use Google to find news articles. Prepare answers to predictable questions, such as the introductory 'Tell me about yourself', and questions about your abilities, career history, personality and goals. These should not be stumbling blocks; rehearse well beforehand. This will help you counter all the possible questions that will be hurled at you during the interview. Usually for the graduates who have come out of their college, the questions will be based on the learning in college and also related to the course. Dwelling too much into the subjects before attending the interview will cause last minute jitters. So it is better to know stuff beforehand. Use the college's own verbiage that sold the degree courses to you in the first place as ready-made answers when your employer asks what use your learning is to your employer. Many colleges now tell you what useful skills you'll have to take out into the work world after learning. All you need do is memorize those alluring lines. It is advisable to be mentally prepared to attend the interview. Being mentally prepared will give you the leverage to think quickly and astutely. Not only does this involved the information finding mission from the prior step but it is also thinking through why you want to work for this organization, being ready for awkward or difficult questions and having a good idea about your fit in the place.  Think about your own resume. Anything odd about it, like chunks of missing time, an abrupt job end or a failure to launch? Address these in your mind so that you have good answers if the issue is raised. Have answers to awkward questions about plans for your future. While it is illegal in many jurisdictions to ask questions about your birthing intentions and family arrangements, employers find ways of wheedling this out of you with clever but sneaky questions. Be alert and have...

Toasted walnuts taste best when served warm, so you should not let them cool to room temperature. They will be hot after you finish toasting them, though, and handling them immediately can lead to burns. Wait until the nuts have cooled just enough to comfortably hold in your hand. " The shell should have begun peeling up slightly at the "x" mark as the walnuts toasted. Use your fingers to grip the corners and forcefully peel the softened shell off. The shell may still pose some problem, but it can usually be worked off with only your fingers. If the shell is still too hard to peel away, gently crack it using a nutcracker as though the nut were still raw. Apply pressure carefully, though, since toasted walnuts tend to be a little softer than raw walnuts and will break apart more easily. You can either use a clean dish towel or paper towel. Rub the towel over the nuts using small yet rapid strokes to remove the bitter skins. You can also store the toasted nuts in the refrigerator or freezer if necessary, but most people prefer the taste of warm toasted walnuts over cold walnuts.

TL;DR in English:


Stretch your quads while standing. Try a kneeling bridge stretch. Do lunge stretches.

Since your living room is big, it probably can’t be lit properly with just one central light source. During the day, take advantage of windows and keep the curtains or blinds open. Use 2-3 unique lamps near the corners of the room to enhance the central light source and make the evenings feel cozy for guests.  Consider keeping 2 identical table lamps on side tables located on either side of your biggest couch. Then, put a floor lamp that is made of the same materials, or contains the same colors, in a corner on the other side of the room. If you have a fireplace but don’t use it, fill it with candles and light them for extra brightness and ambience. Cool colors, such as blues and greens, tend to visually expand space. Since you want to do the opposite, go with a warmer color palette that includes reds, oranges, and/or yellows. Get curtains, lamps, wall art, and throw pillows and blankets in these colors. For example, you could get a set of solid mahogany curtains and 2-3 apricot throw pillows that have mahogany appliques or tassels on them. Texture is important because it adds dimension to a space, which is especially important when you have a lot to work with. Specifically, rough textures help a room feel more intimate and grounded, so try to incorporate several rough-textured pieces into your living room.  Toss a few wool throw pillows onto your couch and/or keep a tree branch candle holder centered on your coffee table to add in some rough texture. To create a focal point, choose a textured couch or a large chair paired with a jute ottoman. A large patterned rug can split up space and add personality to your room. Place it near your main sitting space underneath the coffee table and between or underneath your couches. Once again, choose patterns, textures, and colors that fit with your personal decor style, and make sure the size of the rug is proportionate to the size of the space. Consider getting a unique Persian or oriental rug, such as a Kazak rug or an Aubusson rug. These are typically very colorful...

TL;DR in English: Emphasize lighting. Use a warm color palette. Add in rough textures to warm up your large space. Lay a large patterned rug on your living room floor.

Aim to buy a purebred puppy from a responsible local Cocker Spaniel breeder. It is a good idea to visit a few local breeders before choosing one from which to buy a puppy. Check local classified listings, talk to area vets, attend dog shows, visit dog parks, and ask other local Cocker Spaniel owners for referrals to reputable breeders. It's best to shop locally so you can meet the puppy first and establish a relationship with a knowledgeable breeder. Browse the database of Cocker Spaniel breeders at the American Spaniel Club (ASC) website to look for ASC-registered breeders in your state: http://www.asc-cockerspaniel.org/index.php/breeders.html Ask how many years of experience the breeder has; ideally, they should have at least a few years of experience. Also, ask if they only breed Cocker Spaniel puppies or other breeds as well. If they specialize in Cocker Spaniels, they are more likely to be knowledgeable about them. Be polite and direct with questions like:  "Have you been a breeder for many years?" "Have you only bred Cocker Spaniels?" Making sure that your new puppy is healthy is of the utmost concern, and it should be a breeder's primary concern as well. Be sure to ask your breeder if the puppies’ mother is current on her vaccines, as puppies receive their early immunity to disease directly from their mother, and if either parent had any genetic defects. You should also inquire if the puppy will be seen by a vet before it is sold.  Conditions like progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), cataracts, glaucoma, cardiomyopathy, and hip dysplasia are common in Cocker Spaniels, so ask if either parent of the litter has been afflicted with any of them.  Both the mother and the father should be certified by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) as well. Almost all pet stores puppies come from puppy mills, which are essentially puppy factories with horrible, unhealthy conditions. Given the popularity of the Cocker Spaniel breed, many Cocker Spaniel puppies will be sold in pet stores. Buying your new puppy from...

TL;DR in English: Locate local breeders. Ask about the breeder’s experience. Ask about health considerations. Do not buy from a pet store. Insist on visiting the premises. Read the breeder’s behaviour.

Cut a 1⁄2–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) section from a wire hanger if you want a dart-like projectile. Otherwise, you can use a BB or ball bearing as your projectile. Feed the projectile into the barrel of your coil gun. You can use any projectile as long as it’s magnetic. Place the battery back in its terminal so a current can run through your circuit. Locate the triangular metal piece on the back of the circuit and press down on it with an insulated screwdriver. Hold the screwdriver there for 5 seconds so the capacitor can fully charge. Don’t touch the capacitor after it’s charged or else you will get shocked. Once the capacitor has been charged, flip the switch into the on position to shoot your gun. Turning on the switch completes the circuit and charges the coils around the barrel, propelling the projectile forward. Once you shoot the gun, leave the switch on for 1 minute so any leftover voltage in the capacitor can discharge safely. Make sure your gun isn’t aimed at any living thing since it will shoot quickly.

TL;DR in English: Load a metal BB or piece of wire hanger into the pen barrel. Put the battery back in the camera and charge the capacitor for 5 seconds. Turn on the switch to shoot the coil gun.

If you haven’t purchased a mattress in a while, it’s good to see what options are available before going to a store.  Check prices online to see what you feel is reasonable based on what is being offered. Mattress brands are often coming out with new styles of mattresses including ones that offer adjustable firmness levels and temperatures. Decide how high-tech you want your mattress to be, as some of these may only be available at specialty stores or online. Look up what special features may be offered by each mattress brand including a trial period or money-back guarantee. If desired, you can print this information to bring to the store with you. Although this is difficult to determine without first testing mattresses, a few physical factors can help direct your decision.  If you have back problems, consider a medium-firm to firm mattress choice. These are best for supporting your lower back and reducing back pain. Pillow-top mattresses are best for people who aren’t too light, as they won’t have enough weight to suppress the top and the springs to a point that it makes a difference in comfort. Larger people typically find pillow-top mattresses more comfortable for this reason. Ignore the spring count that is given as proof for a mattress’ supposed quality and firmness or softness. Studies have shown that the number of springs doesn’t actually affect how comfortable the mattress is. Nothing is worse than finding and purchasing your perfect mattress, just to realize you can’t fit it in your house. Check your space availability in your bedroom, and then decide on a size of mattress to fit.  Twin mattresses are the smallest size, and measure on average 39”/75”. The next largest size after a twin mattress is a full or double mattress, which measures at 54”/75”. The queen sized mattress is the most commonly purchased by couples for its size and relative price. It measures at 60”/80”. King size bed is the largest standard sized mattress available. It is 76”/80”. Some mattress brands and stores offer an extra...

TL;DR in English: Visit mattress websites to see what’s offered. Decide on a level of firmness. Measure the space you plan to put the bed. Find a store(s) to shop at.

Stand with your legs in line with your shoulders. Keep your back straight and bend your knee to lift your shin and foot behind you. Reach back and hold the toe of the leg you’re lifting to extend the stretch further. Hold the stretch for 5 to 10 seconds, depending on your ability.  Use your hand on the same side as the leg you’re lifting: if you’re lifting your left leg, use your left hand. Brace yourself by holding your opposite hand against a wall if you need help balancing. Repeat on the other side, and proceed to 5 to 10 repetitions for each leg. Kneel down and sit on your heels. Reach behind you and place your hands on the ground with your arms fully extended. Inhale, then place your weight on your hands and exhale as you tighten your buttocks and lift your pelvis forward off of your heels.  Hold the pose for 3 to 5 seconds, depending on your ability, then return to the seated position. Proceed with at least 10 repetitions. The farther back you reach, the more intense your stretch. Start with your hands closer to your feet if you're a beginner. Start on one knee with your other leg forward, so that knee is bent above the heel at a 90 degree angle. Bring both hands to your forward thigh, and lean your torso backward while extending that knee forward. Use these opposite motions to stretch out your quad.  Hold for thirty seconds. Proceed with 5 to 10 repetitions on each leg. Work the stretch even more by sliding the foot that's flat on the ground slightly outward and bringing both hands to the floor. Your arms and hands should be on the inner side of your leg and your knee should be in line with your shoulder. Bend your elbows, bringing them closer to your chest as you lower your torso closer to the floor.

Water may help minimize inflammation by flushing your system. While sciatica is not always directly associated with inflammation, pain is always associated with inflammation. In addition, the tissues of the spine contain water and staying hydrated can help strengthen those structures. Both hot and cold therapy are very useful approaches in treating sciatica. Most natural practitioners will recommend first applying ice followed by heat for three cycles. This should be repeated at least four times a day. Apply ice for about 10 minutes followed by heat for five minutes. This is one cycle. Chiropractors are specially trained, especially in spinal disorders. They are trained to manipulate and move the bones of the spine back into alignment and reduce the pressure on the sciatic nerve. Overall, chiropractic care has been shown to significantly improve symptoms of sciatica.  Chiropractors are also trained to treat all the major causes of sciatic pain and, if necessary, can refer patients to other specialists such as surgeons. Chiropractors also educate their patients regarding specific exercises designed to improve the spine and the bones, joints and muscles that may be impacted in sciatic pain. Traction, or spinal decompression therapy involves stretching out the spine using a traction table or other device is often used to reposition a bulging disc and can be very helpful in treating sciatica. Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is based on the concept that meridians — energy channels — run throughout the body. The placement of needles at specific points along these meridians can relieve pain and treat a wide variety of conditions.  The placement of the needles will depend on your specific needs and may be combined with Chinese medical massage (Tui na). Acupuncture may also be combined with the use of Chinese herbs combinations to promote muscle relaxation and release of tension. This can provide direct pain relief. Therapeutic massage can improve circulation, relax the muscles, and lead to the...

TL;DR in English: Drink more water to keep yourself hydrated. Use hot and cold therapy to relieve your sciatica pain. See a chiropractor to treat your sciatica. Visit an acupuncturist to treat your sciatica. Employ massage therapy to treat your sciatica. Use herbal treatments for sciatica.

Not all devices are made equally in terms of print quality, and a printer's performance is most often reflected in its price. Review the device specifications prior to purchasing an inkjet printer.  Choose a printer model that provides 48-bit color support and an optical scan resolution of at least 2,400 dots-per-inch (dpi) for the best results. Read and compare the product reviews for several different devices to help determine which inkjet printer will produce the best quality images and photos. Photo printers are designed specifically for printing photographs, and usually produce the highest quality results. A dedicated photo printer typically will produce better quality images than a multipurpose printer.

TL;DR in English: Purchase a printer capable of printing high resolution photos and graphics. Consider purchasing a photo printer.

To build trust, it is important to show that you are kind, respectful, and accepting of the other people. Be understanding and show them compassion when they need it. Always respect their thoughts and beliefs, even when they are different from yours.  If you disagree on something, be respectful about it. For instance, don’t say, “I don’t believe in your religion at all. It sounds really weird.” Instead, say something like, “My beliefs are pretty different, but that’s ok! I respect all religions.” Also, be accepting of your friend. Don’t try to get your friend to change for you. Trust is built over time, so be ready and willing to invest time in someone if you want to gain their trust. Each time you hang out, it’s an opportunity to have positive interactions and show your trustworthiness. Avoid only being around them when things are going well. Be there for them during the ups and the downs.  Your willingness to be around them when they’re going through a hard time shows them that they matter to you. You aren’t hanging around just to have fun and enjoy the good times – you want to have a real friendship. Meaningless flattery and only telling someone what they want to hear isn’t the same thing as kindness. You don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings, but you also don’t want to lie to them. Avoid being vague with them. Be specific and really mean the things you say. For example, if your friend asks you how they look in an outfit and it doesn’t look flattering, don’t automatically say, “It looks great!” when you know it doesn't.  However, you also don’t want to say, “Honestly, you look a bit overweight in that.” Instead, you could say something like, “That color looks awesome on you! I like the style of the outfit, but I’m not sure about the neckline. Let’s look for something else in that color.” When your friend texts or calls you, try to reply or call them back as soon as you can. If they send you a text and you don’t respond for days, it creates the illusion that you either don’t care enough to reply, or you’re...

TL;DR in English: Show kindness, respect, and acceptance. Spend time with them. Be sincere. Be accessible. Listen

As stressed as you may be about the test, think about the differences between studying and doing homework.  Use your homework to study for the test. Most of the time, the key points needed for the test are discussed in the homework. When your teacher assigns homework, s/he also assigns a certain point value to the assignment. If you do the work, you get the points, if you don't, those points are lost. Your teacher doesn't give you points for studying, just for the test. If the test is hard, no matter how much studying you do, you might still get a bad grade. Then you'll want the cushion homework points will give you. Don't cram! Your brain will retain the information a lot better if you gradually memorize information. Cramming helps in the short term, but if you hope to retain the information for the entire semester, it is best to study over a longer period of time. The risks far outweigh the rewards. Nap, exercise, listen to music... etc. Calm yourself. The last thing you want to do is freak out right before an exam. You won't be able to concentrate. Even if you haven't studied at all, if you paid attention in class, chances are you will do fine. If you stress too much, you will blank out and end up with a worse grade. Studies have shown that peppermint improves memory and recall.

TL;DR in English: Don't study until your homework is done. Study over time. Don't cheat. Relax before tests. Eat a peppermint during a test.

To add an elegant or rustic touch to your cake, purchase pesticide-free flowers and gently insert the stems into the cake. To keep the cake fresher for longer, wrap the stems with an edible sealer before sticking them in the cake. Types of edible flowers include:  Chamomile Marigolds Carnations Cornflowers Daisies Fuchsia Hibiscus Pansies Roses Lavender If you want to cover the frosting or add a burst of color and texture, scatter sprinkles, chopped nuts, caramels, meringues, or candy over the top or sides of the cake. To add them to the sides of the cake, use your palms to gently press them into the frosting so they stick. Toffee or spun sugar makes an impressive decoration that has a slight crunch. If you're decorating a wedding cake, the couple might request brides, grooms, bells, or hearts on top. Look for sturdy toppers or figurines that won't sink down too far into the cake. Keep in mind that toppers and figurines aren't just for weddings. For example, top birthday cakes with clean:  Toy animals Action figures Small plastic dolls Toy cars Try to use whatever fruit is in season that works with the flavor of the cake. For example, if you're decorating a summery lemon cake, top it with fresh berries such as blueberries, blackberries or strawberries. If you're decorating an autumn gingerbread cake, place slices of dried apples or pears around the edge. To make the fruit look sparkly, consider dipping it in a sugar glaze and letting it harden. Or use crystallized fruits or citrus peel for a little extra shine. For a simple decoration that looks great with fresh fruit, spoon whipped cream on top of the cake just before serving. If you'd like to be able to pipe the whipped cream, stabilize it with gelatin, marshmallow fluff, or pudding mix first. To flavor the whipped cream, beat in a few drops of vanilla, almond, lemon, or coffee extract.

TL;DR in English:


Pour 1 teaspoon of lemon juice into a small bowl. Add 1 tablespoon (15 grams) of plain yogurt. Consider adding 1 teaspoon of honey. Stir everything together with a fork or spoon. Gently massage the cleanser onto your face.

You can find him at the south building from the Inn (rotate your camera angle to see the portal). Get inside and then approach the dashing-looking Knight at the left side of your screen.

Actually getting students to apply for the scholarship, and making the award, entails a lot of steps and requires planning. You will need to consider:  Where and when will applications be made available? Where should the applications be sent? When will applications be due? What will the components of an application be? Who will select the recipient(s), and how? How and when will the recipient(s) be notified? How and when will the scholarship funds be distributed? To ensure a successful scholarship program, you will need to notify student applicants of the opportunity. You can ask high schools and/or colleges to advertise the scholarship (via email, flyers, financial aid workshops, etc.) by contacting their office of financial aid or scholarship coordinator. You may also advertise the scholarship opportunity via community groups, student workplaces and activity centers, etc. A scholarship application can be simple: for example, a form that asks for an applicant’s name, contact details, and grade point average. Usually, however, a scholarship application has many components. However you design your application, you want to make sure that it will solicit the information you need to select the recipient(s) based on your criteria.

” A good friend has sincere interest in finding out as much as she can about her friends’ point of view. If you’re really sincere about staying involved in this friendship, stay interested in your friends’ daily life and experiences. Let your questions reflect this deep interest, and don’t get caught up discussions of political likes and dislikes.  Explore your friends’ perspective by asking open-ended questions. Think out loud about what your friend shares, and ask questions to clarify that you’ve understood what she said. ” Political beliefs are sensitive, personal issues, and it can be easy to get emotional about them. When people have political discussions, they’re likely to engage in “blocked listening” which means selectively listening to your friend’s words for an opportunity to disagree with what’s been said.  If you find yourself wanting to include the word “but” in your conversation, chances are you’re engaged in blocked listening. Remember that telling people where they’re wrong is unlikely to change their minds or improve your relationship. Because political beliefs are based on interpretation of facts, you won’t be able to convince another person of your point of view by quoting well-respected experts who agree with you. This only invites your friend to bring in expert opinions that support her own point of view.  Quoting experts, or providing poll figures to show how many people agree with you on a political topic, isn’t likely to persuade your friend that she’s wrong and you’re right. If this is an issue that’s important to your values, it’s enough to just let her know what your own beliefs are. If she wants to learn more, allow her to ask you. It’s not fun to talk to someone whose beliefs are fixed. Political conversations between friends aren’t really about who is right and who is wrong. Instead, they’re an opportunity to keep a good, thoughtful mood going.  It will help to realize that political viewpoints are deeply connected to a person’s sense of identity. If you get so focussed on...

TL;DR in English: Practice “hungry listening. Be wary of “blocked listening. Don’t try to change your friend’s views. Avoid imposing your political beliefs on your friends. Be mindful of your social media feed. Agree to disagree.

Lemon juice is naturally antibacterial, and it can help reduce acne. It would be best if you use fresh lemon juice for this, but bottled may also work. If you are using fresh lemon juice, be sure to strain out the seeds and pulp first. Yogurt is a great, natural moisturizer. It will prevent the lemon juice from drying out your skin. The lactic acid in it is also naturally exfoliating, so it will help make your skin brighter and softer. To get the most benefits from this cleanser, use full-fat yogurt instead of low-fat or non-fat. You cannot go wrong with adding honey. It is both antibacterial and moisturizing, making it ideal for those with acne or dry skin. If you not have any honey on hand, however, you can leave it out of the cleanser. Keep stirring until the color and texture are consistent. You don't want any streaks or "puddles" of lemon juice. Splash your face with warm water first, then gently massage the cleanser in, making sure to avoid the area around your eyes. Wait 1 to 2 minutes, then rinse the cleanser off with warm water. Follow up with a slash of cool water, then pat your face dry.  To make this cleanser even more effective, place a warm, damp towel over your face for 1 to 2 minutes first, then apply the cleanser. Apply your usual moisturizer afterwards. This will keep the lemon from being too drying.

If you don't naturally have back dimples at all, the only way to get them is with cosmetic surgery. This is accomplished by removing fat from the areas where you would like the dimples to appear. Traditionally, this is done with liposuction, in which a needle is inserted under the skin and a little bit of fat is suctioned out.  The liposuction procedure used specifically to create back dimples may go by a variety names, including V-spot treatment, Dimples En V, or Barbie Back surgery. This type of liposuction is usually performed under local anesthesia. Possible risks of liposuction include numbness around the liposuction site, infection of the skin, bleeding, or fat embolism (a blood vessel blockage caused by a loose piece of fat). Deoxycholic acid (Kybella) can be injected under the skin to dissolve fat without damaging the surrounding tissues. Targeted injections can be used to simulate back dimples. Deoxycholic injections require less downtime and are less expensive than liposuction, but you may need several treatments to get the results you want.  Common side effects of Kybella injections include swelling, bruising, pain, numbness, redness, and hardening of the tissue around the injection. Kybella is only FDA approved for treatment of fat below the chin. However, cosmetic practitioners may still legally use it for off-label uses, such as creating back dimples. Cosmetic surgery to create back dimples can be extremely expensive. If you go the liposuction route, you could be looking at around $6000 USD. While a single treatment with Kybella costs less than liposuction, you may need multiple treatments. Because of this, Kybella can add up to about the same or even more than what you would pay for liposuction. Most insurance plans will not cover the costs of these types of procedures, so you will almost certainly have to pay the whole cost out of pocket.

TL;DR in English: Get targeted liposuction to create back dimples. Use deoxycholic acid injections as an alternative to liposuction. Be prepared for the cost.

" This is an expensive yet effective way to get straight hair if you're tired of treating your hair daily. Keep in mind that some of the chemicals found in a Brazilian Blowout have been found to be toxic. If your health conscious, you may want to avoid this treatment.  The results are normally impressive, defying the thickest and curliest of locks. It will last until your chemically treated hair grows out. Most hair types will have success with professional treatment, however, some hair of African descent or hair that is already chemically processed (with highlights or hair-dye) will leave to excessive breakage and damage. Time and cost will depend on the length and thickness of your hair. It can cost an average of $175 to $350.  Be prepared for your hair to not hold a curl after the treatment.

Buy drugstore brands that are silicone-based to reduce frizz. These work just as well as expensive salon products. Look for products that will be gentle on your hair but also less expensive than the salon brand.

TL;DR in English: Research different salons in your area for "The Brazilian Blowout. Book an appointment, and set aside at least 3 hours for the treatment. Maintain your straightened hair by frequenting the salon after your roots grow out. Buy additional products to maintain your straight hair. Finished.

The objective of Rummy 500 is to lay down sets of 3 of more cards. These can be matched sets of 3-4 cards (such as Queens, 5s, 2s, etc.), and/or sequences of 3 or more cards in the same suit (such as the 4, 5, and 6 of spades). The round is finished when one player uses all of their cards or the stock pile runs out. All points are then tallied.  These groups of 3 or more cards are called “melds.” Additionally, players can lay down 1-2 cards that match with existing melds on the table. (For example, if one player has a meld of 3 Aces, another player can lay down the fourth Ace.) Jokers are used as wildcards, and can represent any card a player wants. Whenever cards are laid down in these patterns, they accrue points. To win Rummy 500, one player must reach 500 points, over multiple rounds of play. Card values are as follows:  All face cards are worth 10 points. Aces count as 15 points when used “high.” Jokers (used as wildcards) are worth 15 points. All other cards (Ace low – 9) are worth their value (e.g., the 6 of hearts is worth 6 points.) You may choose to have all cards A-9 worth 5 points, to simplify the scoring system. When one player uses all of their cards, the round ends and points are tallied up. Players who still have cards in their hands tally the value of those cards, and then subtract that amount from their score for that round. Alternatively, if the stock pile runs out of cards, the round ends, but players do not subtract the value of their hands.  For example, if the value of a players hand equals 70 points, and the value of what they have laid down equals 100 points, they will earn 30 points for that round. If a player loses more points from their hand than they have earned in the round, the negative value will be subtracted from their overall score. There are some additional, optional rules that you may like to use. Be sure to discuss these rules and accept or reject them before you begin game play.  30 points rule: This rule states that players must earn at least 30 points in one round...

Bamboo skewers are the best option for the frame due to their size and weight, but straws or other sticks work as well .  The frame is key in holding the plastic open to keep your kite in the air. Measure the length and width of your diamond to find out the sizes of the frame pieces you'll need. To make sure the cross is even: mark the shorter of the two frame pieces at its center (½ of its length) and the other, longer frame piece at 1/4th of its length.  Make a cross or 't' with the sticks so that the two marks are on top of each other. Don't forget to double check that your frame and plastic match up. Secure the cross by winding fishing line or string around the joint of the frame and tying it off. Wiggle the frame to test the durability. If it's shaky, or you're not proud of your knot-tying skills, you can use glue at the joint and then wrap and tie string around it after the glue has dried.

TL;DR in English: Create a cross with frame pieces. Tie the frame together.

Along with the fruit you’re going to need, you will also need something to hold your fruit arrangement. You can use a carved out watermelon or pumpkin, a flower vase, a planter, or a bowl. Choose a holder that’s appropriate to the size and shape you want your arrangement to be. Other supplies you'll need include:  A good sharp knife and cutting board Floral foam (alternatively, use a head of cabbage or lettuce) Bamboo skewers and toothpicks Flower-shaped metal cookie cutters Aluminum foil and plastic wrap A melon baller Most fruit is suitable for an edible arrangement, but there are common ingredients that get used because of their color variety, size, and texture. Of the common fruits that are used, you can make a basic arrangement with one:  Pineapple Cantaloupe and one honeydew Quart of strawberries Pint each of blueberries and blackberries Bag seedless grapes Bunch of kale or another large, leafy green Leave the leaves on the strawberries for additional color. Remove stems from other fruit, such as grapes. Cut the excess stems off the kale. Set it all aside. Scoop out the seeds. Clean out the two halves of the cantaloupe by scooping out spheres with the melon baller. Set the melon spheres aside with the berries.  Peel the honeydew. Place the melon halves flat-side down on a flat surface. Follow the rounded contour of the melons with a knife to remove the rind.  Cut each melon half into crescent-shaped wedges that are about an inch thick on the bottom. Cut the wedges in half widthwise. These will be used as flower leaves. Cut off the top and set it aside with the melon balls and berries. Cut off the bottom inch and discard. Without peeling it, slice the remaining pineapple into rounds that are half an inch to three-quarters of an inch thick. Use the cookie cutters to press out the center of each pineapple slice into flower shapes.  You can use different sizes and shapes, or you can make each flower-shaped pineapple piece the same. You can also use other shapes for the pineapples, such as hearts (great for...

This is a much simpler recipe than making your soap from scratch. It involves melting a pre-made soap base down and then modifying it with your own ingredients. Here's what you'll need:  1 lb Soap base of your choosing (suspension-friendly) 4 oz rolled oats (can add more or less to suit your tastes) 1.5 tsp almond oil (optional) 2 oz roasted almonds (optional) 1 to 2 tbsp honey (optional) Pot and/or heat-proof container for melting soap Large bowl or measuring cup for mixing Whisk or spoon for mixing Soap mould or pan measuring roughly 9 x 4 inches Wax paper or parchment paper (optional) Craft shops have many different soap base options: goat's milk, shea butter, and olive oil are popular choices. Most importantly, choose a suspension formula to ensure that your oats won't sink to the bottom of the soap during the cooling process.  Soap bases are often called “melt-and-pour” soap bases by crafters, since all you need to do is melt down the base, add your ingredients, pour it into a mould, and then let it cool. If a soap base isn't easy for you to obtain, you can also purchase a regular bar of soap and just melt it down, add the oats, and let it cool. Any soap bar will do, although one with higher-quality ingredients will make your skin feel nicer. You can use whatever moulds you like for this recipe. If you're making regular bar soap, you can get away with using a 9 x 4 inch baking pan. You can really use whatever shape you want though.  If you use metal or plastic containers that aren't specifically made for soap, be sure to line them with wax paper or parchment paper before pouring your soap into them. This will make it much easier for you to remove the soap once it's cooled. Some soap-makers even line their professional soap moulds. This helps prevent the soap from getting stuck in the corners of rectangular and square moulds. If you're using moulds with more detailed shapes, you won't want to line them as this will obscure the design. Add your oats to a coffee grinder or food processor, or crush them...

TL;DR in English: Gather your materials. Choose a soap base. Prepare your mould. Grind your oats. Add almonds to the oat mixture (optional). Melt the soap base down. Pour the melted soap into a large container. Stir in your oats and other optional ingredients. Pour the soap into its mould. Allow the soap to cool. Remove soap from the mould. Enjoy!

Depending on what state you plan on operating in, you may need a special license from the Department of Transportation. Each state has its own set of requirements, so contact your state's DOT to learn more.  If you plan on doing interstate moves, you will need to register with the U.S. Department of Transportation.  Some states require a certain amount of experience in the moving industry and/or a specified amount of startup capital, so be sure to check your state's requirements. New York, for example, requires that the owner or a key employee have at least two years of relevant experience, which must be supported with tax documents. New York also requires you to provide proof that you have the necessary equipment to run your business and enough money to cover your start-up costs. . In order to legally operate a business, you must register the business with your state. Each state in the United States has a slightly different process for registering a business. You can find complete instruction on your state's Secretary of State's website.  You can choose from several different business structure options, each of which has its own benefits and drawbacks. Sole proprietorships and partnerships offer tax benefits, but the owners maintain full liability for the company. Corporations offer protection against liability, but owners often end up paying higher taxes. Limited Liability Corporations (LLCs) offer small business owners tax benefits and protection against liability. There are different legal requirements and fees for establishing each type of business.  You will need to choose a name when you incorporate your business. The name has to be distinguishable from all other businesses registered in your state, so check with your state's filing agency to make sure your desired name is available before you begin the application process. It's also a good idea to check with the U.S. Patents and Trademarks Office to make sure that you will not be violating any trademarks by using the name. In addition to registering...
