It may be easier for the dyslexic adult to speak than to write. For people who have word-retrieval difficulties, grapho-motor weaknesses, or problems putting their ideas onto paper, using a speech recognition program may help with this process.  Some examples of this software include Dragon Naturally Speaking and Dragon Dictate. Using this software, you can dictate emails, craft essays, or surf the internet using voice commands. Many electronic readers (e-readers) now contain the option for text-to-speech and audio books, and many publishers include text-to-speech options when they sell a digital book. The three main digital platforms for text-to-speech options are tablet computers: the Kindle Fire HDX, the iPad, and Nexus 7.  The Kindle Fire HDX has a feature called Immersion Reading, which syncs highlighted Kindle text with professionally narrated audio from Audible. Nexus 7 allows for multiple settings for different users, which could prove useful if you share a tablet with other family members. There are a wide variety of apps available to help support dyslexic learners of any age. There are text-to-speech apps, such as Blio, Read2Go, Prizmo, Speak It! Text to Speech, and Talk to Me. Flipboard, and Dragon Go are search options which rely on voice command, allowing the user to bypass printed text. Reminder apps, such as Textminder or VoCal XL, will schedule text reminders of calendar listings, classes, meetings, medications, etc.

TL;DR in English: Use speech-to-text software. Use text-to-speech feature. Get familiar with apps.

Autism has a wide range of aspects that vary from person to person. Since autism is a developmental disability, communication and social skills tend to be a challenge. Specific symptoms vary. Autism is not a linear spectrum from "mild" to "severe." It impacts many different areas in different ways. For example, maybe your friend is funny and great at cheering people up, and has serious difficulty with self-care and sensory processing. An autistic person can be strong in one area and weak in another. It is important to understand your loved one's symptoms. Once you understand where the challenges lie, you can target those areas. Find out what strengths your loved one has, and what challenges they face. All of these components are important when choosing treatment options and coping mechanisms. It is good to know the general signs, and what autistic people think about autism. (Autistic-run organizations and blogs are usually good sources.) Here are a few signs of autism:  Motor skills may be delayed Difficulty understanding and interacting with others Difficulty grasping abstract uses of language (e.g. sarcasm, metaphors) Special interests that are unusual in terms of focus and passion Over- or under-sensitivity to various stimuli (sounds, sights, smells, etc.) Difficulty with self care Repetitive behavior, notably stimming One autistic person might want to focus on developing the self-care skills to live on their own, while another might want to make friends. Others might be perfectly fine with living in assisted living, or not making more friends. Recognize that your idea of the ideal lifestyle might differ from their idea, and it's most important that they are able to be happy. Autistic people are not embarrassing, broken, or deficient—simply different. Instead of saying "I'll finally be happy when my loved one _____," practice being happy now, and embarking on your journey together. Demonstrate unconditional love, so they can love themselves.

TL;DR in English: Recognize that autism is a deeply complex spectrum. Consider your loved one’s specific strengths and challenges. Be knowledgeable about autism. Understand that every autistic person's goals are different. Accept them as they are.

For this project, and others listed in this article, you will cut soda cans and turn them into lovely garden ornaments. However, these garden ornaments can turn deadly if you are cut by the sharp edges of the can. Because of this, it is important to wear sturdy work gloves when you cut cans. You will also need heavy-soled shoes. Consider using different kinds of soda cans to make your metal flowers more versatile and colorful. However, in a pinch, working with the same sort of cans can look just as nice. Use a box cutter (which is also known as a craft knife) to make vertical slits down the side of the can. Leave about three-fourths of an inch in between each slit. Make the slits all the way around the can, being sure to leave space between each slit. Wearing heavy-soled shoes (work boots work well), squish the top of the can down to the base. Doing this will form the slits you have made into flower petals. You should end up with a squashed can that looks like a flower. Your wreath can be a circle made of wire, or an actual wreath purchased at an arts and crafts store. Use a hot glue gun to glue the metal flowers to the wreath. If you don’t have a wreath, consider getting a pool noodle at the dollar store. Bend it so that is forms a circle and then connect the two ends with duct tape. Wrap a ribbon around that section of the pool noodle to hide the duct tape.

TL;DR in English: Wear protective gear when cutting cans. Collect some empty soda cans. Cut the cans. Squash the cans. Glue the ‘flowers’ to a wreath.

It’s important to make it clear that you are saying no to whatever she has asked or offered. Don’t say something vague that leaves the door open to things happening between you later on. Always answer her directly so she knows you are rejecting her.  An example of what not to say is, “Thanks for asking. I’m not sure right now, but maybe it will work out at some point.” This leaves it open that you might be interested. Say something like, “It feels good that you’re interested in me, but honestly I don’t feel the same. Thanks for asking, but I have to say no thanks to your offer.” When you reject her, it’s not always necessary to give a reason. If you give a specific reason, she may think that it’s temporary. Unless you really have a reason you feel you have to give her, stick to letting her down without a specific reason.  Don’t say, “I don’t think I want to date right now. I’ve just started this new job and I know it’s going to keep me busy.” This implies that later on you’d be free to engage in a relationship. For example, if a friend asks you on a date, don’t say, “I don’t like to date friends.” She may try to convince you. Simply say, “I’m going to have to pass. Thanks for the offer.” You may be tempted to ask if she wants to be friends or do something together that’s not a date. Don’t do this. If you know you aren’t interested in the way she is, don’t come up with something to soften the blow. Let your no simply be a no.  For example, you meet a girl at a friend’s party and she asks you out on a date for the next weekend. Don’t say, “I don’t know about a date, but some of us are hanging out at the lake if you want to join.” If you chat with a girl at a bar, say, “It’s been fun talking to you, but I’m not interested in pursuing something beyond this conversation.”

Ensure you’re getting your vitamin E. Get your vitamin C. Eat garlic.

Activated charcoal is available at drug stores and natural health stores. It's commonly used as a remedy for indigestion, so it usually comes in the form of capsules. This pure black, all-natural substance is perfect for creating homemade eyeliner.  This is not the same as the type of charcoal you burn to cook food on the grill. Look for a jar of capsules labeled "activated charcoal" in the vitamin section of the store. If you can't find activated charcoal locally, it's available for purchase online. One bottle provides enough charcoal to make many year's worth of eyeliner. You can use an old eye shadow or lip balm pot, a tiny tin, or any other container you have on hand. Break the activated charcoal capsules into the container. You can use plain activated charcoal as eyeliner without mixing it with anything else. The charcoal will naturally mix with the oil on your skin to stay in place once you apply it. Dip your eyeliner brush into the container and apply eyeliner in your favorite style. If you like your eyeliner to have more of a paste or gel consistency, you can mix the activated charcoal with water or oil to make it a little damp. Start with just one or two drops, and keep mixing more in until your eyeliner reaches the consistency you want. Try mixing in one of the following ingredients:  Water Jojoba oil Almond oil Coconut oil Aloe vera gel

TL;DR in English: Buy some activated charcoal. Break a few capsules into a small container. Dip your eyeliner brush into the charcoal. Experiment with different textures.

Once you find a program that meets your needs, you'll need to complete the application procedure and enroll in that program. The most common major for aspiring Xray technicians is Radiography, but other areas of study may be acceptable, provided that the coursework for that major focuses on human anatomy, pathology, patient care, and radiation physics and protection. Common areas of study for aspiring Xray technicians include:  Radiography  Nuclear Medicine Technology  Radiation Therapy  Magnetic Resonance Imaging  Sonography Programs that offer an associate's degree in Radiography are most common, as this degree path meets the basic requirements of most employers, but students may wish to complete a bachelor's degree or even a graduate degree to gain additional experience and education.

TL;DR in English: Understand the skills required of an Xray technician. Find an accredited program to attend. Choose a relevant area of study. Earn a degree.

You can book a reservation at your favorite restaurant or you can cook. It doesn't even have to be fine dining. Often just putting something together in advance is a good way to show your Valentine that you care and that you're thinking of them. Add some candles, turn down the lights, and it's a perfect romantic evening. If you're like most people, there are probably so many things to do in your area that you've just never gotten around to. Spend an entire day exploring with your significant other, and make a point of going places neither of you have ever been before. Go to a new museum, go paintballing together, or hike a long trail that you've both been interested in, but never had the time for. You never know--you might even get to see a fun new side of the person you love. It sounds so cliché, until you realize that it has been forever since you last took an hour or two to simply sit down across from them at a table to talk. Put your phones on silent and out of sight, and just give each other your full attention. If you go to a nature preserve or big park, bring a field guide to birds or wild flowers and have fun working together to identify what you see. If you're in the city, do a self-guided walking tour together, wander down adorable side streets you've never noticed before, and make lots of stops to smell the roses. Book a few nights at a cosy bed and breakfast, or visit a nearby city for a few days. You might have to tell them to set aside the weekend for something special, but they don't have to know where you're going. Go all out, and make it a weekend to remember. Swing dances often include a brief lesson beforehand for beginners and people who want to brush up on rusty skills, and they can be a lot of fun. Or get up close and personal with a tango class. Nothing says romantic like a jazzy number and a beckoning dance floor.

TL;DR in English: Arrange for dinner. Plan a day out. Take your partner out for coffee. Go for a long walk together. Surprise your significant other with a weekend away. Take your partner out dancing.

If you want to increase the numbers of reps you can do for any exercise, it's a good idea to figure out how many reps you can do at once, period. So, drop and do as many push-ups as you can do. When you drop down and can't push yourself back all the way up, that's your max. If you're using your own body weight for resistance, it's still good to break up a workout into sets, allowing yourself brief rests between them to recover. This allows the muscles the opportunity to build growth more effectively than blasting through a single high-rep set, which is more stressful on your muscles and joints. There are a few different ways of arranging a push-up workout into sets:  You can increase the number of reps per set that you do, adding reps slowly. Start doing three sets, with a third of your max number of reps in each set, before slowly adding reps to each set, bringing up your total number for the day. You can increase the number of sets that you do of your max. Do the maximum number of push-ups that you can do each day in a single set, then let yourself recover for several minutes, then do another set later. Slowly add the number of sets that you can do at once, then start slowly adding reps to your max. If you maxed out at 15 push-ups, do three sets of five push-ups, with a short ten second break in between each set. Do that for a few days, then add an extra push-up or two to each set the next time you try. Stay there for a few days, then do the same thing again. Eventually, you'll be up to 15 x 3 sets, and you can start progressively adding a rep or two to each set. Alternatively, you could switch to doing fewer sets of more reps per set. If you'd prefer, start doing your max set, but with longer breaks in between. Using this method, you'll add reps more slowly, but your total per workout will increase very quickly, and you'll get stronger. Alternate 3 x Max push-up workouts with more sets of fewer reps. If you start at 15 reps, try doing three sets of 15 and see how it goes. If it's too tough, try doing 5...

TL;DR in English: Max out. Do progressive sets of push-ups each day. Try breaking your max into three sets. Try doing three sets of your max each day. Progressively add more push-ups to each set. Try timed push-ups. try to max out once a month. Be consistent.

Vitamin E is an antioxidant that stimulates and enhances your immune cells and aids with circulating oxygen. Take up to 400 milligrams a day in supplement form. It can be hard to get enough vitamin E through your diet but it is naturally found in avocados, seeds, vegetable oils, and grains. This antioxidant boosts your white blood cells, antibodies, and interferon, all to improve your immune system. Try to get at least 200 milligrams of vitamin C a day by eating six servings of fruits and vegetables such as citrus fruits, strawberries, raspberries, broccoli, spinach, and bell peppers. Garlic contains allicin and sulphur compounds that provide you with antibacterial and detoxification properties. Eating a clove of garlic a day may help you recover faster.

If you have a hookworm infection, the first symptom you will notice is generally that your skin is itchier than normal. The itching begins with the hookworm larvae enter your skin. You may also notice the skin swelling and becoming red in the area where the itching sensation is the worst. This is also caused by the larvae entering your skin. People commonly feel hookworm itch in their hands and feet. When the hookworm enters your intestines, it can aggravate your intestines, leading to nausea and diarrhea. The hookworm can also release toxins that disrupt your digestive system. The nausea may occur with or without vomiting. Look for blood in your stool. The blood could be red or black. Hookworms can cause your colon to become inflamed. They can also irritate the lining of your intestine, which is comprised of the colon, cecum and rectum. When this occurs you might experience cramps in your abdomen. This symptom only occurs in severe hookworm infections. Hookworms feed directly on their hosts blood, which can lead to their host becoming iron deficient. Signs that you are iron deficient include:  Extreme fatigue and overall weakness. Pale skin and eyes. Chest pain and headache. Shortness of breath.

TL;DR in English: Keep track of when your skin suddenly becomes itchy and you notice a rash. Keep track of nausea and diarrhea you experience. Keep track of cramps you experience. Take note if you suddenly develop an iron deficiency.

Depending on the layout of your room, you may have little choice as to where the screen must go, but if possible, choose a wall that has no direct light, as light on the screen will make the image look washed out.  If you must choose a wall that receives direct light, consider an ambient light rejecting projector screen or, if you’re painting your screen on the wall, you can use ambient light rejecting paint (available at hardware stores).  You might also consider buying blackout curtains for your windows. This will again depend upon the layout of your room. If you only have a couch and some chairs in the room (i.e. not theater-style seating in rows), an appropriate height would be between 24 and 36 inches (61 and 91.5 centimetres) off the floor.  If you have multiple rows in your home theatre, you’ll want to have the screen a bit higher so that people who aren’t in the front row can still properly see whatever images or films you are projecting on to the screen.  When deciding on how far above the floor to place the screen, always keep the screen size in mind, as starting it too high off the ground might not leave enough room for the entire screen. This will be the height and width on which you wish to project the images from your projector. Keep the measurements handy, as you will need them while calculating where to mount your projector. Most projectors can create a high-quality 100-in. (254-cm, or 8.33-foot) image, so if you’re unsure of what size of screen to get — and your room can accommodate it — you should be safe with something close to 100 in.

TL;DR in English: Decide on the best location for the screen. Decide on your screen height. Know your screen size.

Hopefully, you'll be able to drop the social chameleon bit some time. It helps to have good friends who know you for you, and who share your interests. Whether it's work or school that calls for hiding one's self, it's always important to have least one other person around whom you can let your guard down. There's nothing wrong with having friends who are different from you too! If you get along well with another person, then there's no reason not to be friends. If you get too caught up in playing another version of yourself, you risk losing who you've been. Or, in a more real sense, you risk alienating the people who are close to you. If cloaking your nerdiness is a means to the attention of others, don't get trapped playing that part forever. Don't lie or feign interest in something just to hide yourself. It not only offends the other person, it's demeaning to you. If you truly find yourself so overwhelmed by accusations of nerdiness, consider re-evaluating your interests and hobbies. Don't change just for the sake of change, but really take the time to make sure you're not only staying in your comfort zone for the benefit of being comfortable. Life is enriched by trying new things and by making sure we don't focus on any one thing at the expense of another.

TL;DR in English: Keep good friends. Don't forget your own self. Learn to balance.

If you have other dogs or cats in your home, you need to take your time introducing your new puppy to them. When you first bring your puppy home, keep him separate from your other animals. For their first meeting, find neutral territory, such as a neighbor's yard, a park, or other open space. There also needs to be a fence or other open but restricted barrier there so you can keep the animals apart.  Put a leash on all the animals and then put your new puppy on one side of the fence and your other animals on the other. Let them sniff each other through the barrier for around 30 minutes. The next day, take them back to a neutral location and let them meet without the barrier. This area needs to be open so they won't feel confined and will have plenty of room to sniff each other. Wait around two minutes while they sniff each other, letting them get used to each other. Watch them carefully for any aggressive behavior or fighting. After the initial sniffing, let them play for a few minutes, then take them back home. After this, let them together in your backyard, then in your house. For the first few weeks, don't leave them alone together in the house. Wait until you know they are familiar enough with each other until you do that. In order for your dog to be well adjusted, you need to get him acclimated to household noises and activity and other people. This will help him get used to them while he is still growing, which will help him not react badly to them as he grows.  You should do this in a non-threatening manner. Don't scare him with things, such as chasing him with a vacuum or hitting at him with a broom. Just go about your daily business so he gets used to it. Slowly introduce him to the other animals in the house as he grows so he gets used to them. Make sure any visitors you have over are introduced to your puppy so he learns to like new people. In order for your puppy to get used to being in the car, you should take him for a lot car rides. This will get him used to other vehicles on the road and the...

Have a bath or shower and gently wash the area with water. Use a soft cotton flannel to remove any discharge from the area. This makes it easier for the Clean and Dry cream to absorb into the skin. Avoid using any soap on the area, as this can cause inflammation and further infection. The Clean and Dry cream will be much easier to apply once your skin is dry. For best results, wait 10 minutes for your skin to dry naturally. If you are in a rush, use a soft cotton towel to gently dab away any excess water. Wash the towel after you have used it to avoid spreading bacteria. Squeeze the cream onto your finger and gently rub it over any areas of your vagina or vulva that are red, itchy, or inflamed. Rub the cream into the skin until it is no longer visible. If you have trouble seeing the area, use a mirror to help you. Clean and Dry cream is fast acting and you should begin to notice your symptoms clearing up within a few days. Apply the cream every morning and evening. Discontinue use after 5 days, as the cream is only designed for short-term use. Contact a doctor if your symptoms persist.

TL;DR in English: Clean the area thoroughly with water. Wait for your skin to air dry. Rub a pea-sized amount of cream over the area. Apply the cream twice a day for 5 days.

Blue eyes can easily get lost in dark undereye circles, and this is especially noticeable with a natural look. Apply concealer around and under your eyes to put the focus on them, not your circles!  Try using a salmon-colored concealer to hide the bluish tones in your skin. If you only need light coverage, dot the concealer along your undereye, then blend with your fingers or a makeup sponge. If you have very dark circles, apply a layer of concealer in an inverted triangle shape under your eye. The point of the triangle should be about level with the apples of your cheeks. Blend it with your fingers or a makeup sponge. It should blend into your face makeup and up to the corners of your eye.

TL;DR in English: Apply concealer under your eyes.

Place 2 cups (285 grams) of raw cashews into a bowl. Fill the bowl with enough water to cover the nuts. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, then tuck it into the fridge. Leave it there overnight. Pour the cashews into a colander that's been set into the sink. Rinse the cashews with cool water until the water runs clear. Shake the colander to get rid of any excess water. This includes the minced garlic, garlic powder, lemon zest, lemon juice, water, nutritional yeast, sea salt, and olive oil. Don't add the fresh dill just yet. It will take about 5 minutes for the cheese to get a creamy texture. Every so often, pause the blender, and use a rubber spatula to scrape any unblended mixture down the sides of the bowl. Use this opportunity to taste the cheese and make any adjustments.  If you want a more cheese-like flavor, add more nutritional yeast. If you want a little extra tang, add more lemon zest. If you want a sharper taste, add some more garlic powder. If the cheese needs more overall flavor or balance, add a dash of sea salt. Set a fine, mesh strainer into a large bowl. Line it with 2 pieces of cheesecloth or a clean tea towel. Scoop the cheese into the lined strainer with a rubber spatula, then bundle the cheesecloth around the cheese. Twist the excess cheesecloth into a rope and secure it with a rubber band. Set the cheese back down into the strainer, then carry the bowl over to the fridge. Tuck the bowl into the fridge, and leave it there for 6 to 12 hours. This will allow the excess water to drain away. The cheese is ready when it holds its shape. Unwrap the cheesecloth first. Reshape the cheese into a disk using your hands. If you want to give it a little more flavor, use your hands to press the chopped dill into the sides of the cheese. Do not over handle the cheese, or it will fall apart. This type of cheese can hold its form, but only for 1 to 2 hours. After that, it will need to be refrigerated to solidify again. Enjoy the cheese within 5 days.

TL;DR in English: Soak the cashews overnight. Drain and rinse the cashews. Place the cashews into a food processor with all of the ingredients. Blend the ingredients together for 5 minutes until creamy. Wrap the cheese with 2 layers of cheesecloth. Refrigerate the cheese for 6 to 12 hours. Unwrap the cheese, then coat it with chopped dill, if desired. Serve the cheese, and refrigerate it after 1 to 2 hours.

Read any relevant chapters before class so that you can understand the lecture better. You will also be aware of any concepts that you have difficulty understanding. You can ask the teacher before class or during class to clarify these concepts. As you are reading and studying before class, you should take notes. This way, you solidify the material in your mind. You should also scan or redraw any figures or diagrams that are important (e.g. they show up multiple times in the chapter). For every class, you should bring notes from previous classes. You should also bring your notes from independent studying, including pictures. This can give you an edge on taking notes in class, which will free up more time for you to absorb what the teacher is saying.

Learn about how to breastfeed from a healthcare professional Maintain a breastfeeding schedule. Allow your baby to nurse for as long as necessary to empty your breasts of milk. Begin each nursing session with the opposite breast. Make sure your baby is latching on correctly to your breast. Switch positions for each feeding session. Avoid giving bottles to your baby in-between feedings.

Many meals can be just as delicious without meat. You can try removing meat entirely from your favorite recipes or replacing them with a vegetable.   Grilled eggplant or portobello mushrooms make for a delicious entrée. You can take out the beef from chili. Add extra beans or use a vegetarian beef substitute. Tofu and tempeh are great substitutes for chicken. You can use them in stir fry, salad, or tacos. Eat a veggie burger instead of a beef burger. You can buy frozen veggie burgers or make your own. Many people worry that they won’t get enough protein on a plant-based diet, but there are many great sources of protein found in plants. Some good sources of protein include:  Green peas Peanut or almond butter Chickpeas Beans Seitan, tempeh, or tofu If you are not on a vegan diet, you can still consume eggs and dairy as a source of protein. If you don’t feel full or satisfied after a meal, you might start to snack or crave unhealthy foods. For each meal, make sure that you have at least 1 high-fiber ingredient to keep you full between meals. Some high fiber foods include:  Legumes, including lima beans, black beans, lentils, and kidney beans. Whole grains, such as seeded breads, oatmeal, or quinoa. Berries, such as blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries. Green leafy vegetables, like spinach, kale, and swiss chard. This is healthier than eating processed foods, such as chips, cookies, or crackers. There are many delicious plant based snacks, such as:  Apple slices Carrots and hummus Roasted nuts Edamame Toasted pumpkin seeds If you want to eliminate dairy from your diet as well, you do not have to give up your favorite milk-based meals. Try using almond, soy, coconut, rice, or hemp milk instead. There are also non-dairy substitutions for yogurt, ice cream, and coffee creamer.  Non-dairy milk may not work as well in baking. They can be used, however, in hot drinks, cereal, oatmeal, curries, mac and cheese, and smoothies. You can find non-dairy cheeses in your local groceries. These are usually made from nuts.

TL;DR in English: Substitute vegetables for meat in meals. Look for plant-based sources of protein. Choose high-fiber foods to keep you full. Eat fruit or raw veggies as a snack. Replace milk with non-dairy alternatives.

There are advantages to both options depending on how much you are prepared to care for it. Too much soil or fertilization can actually harm your plant. However, if you are using tap water and it has fluoride and other chemicals, you may want to use soil and fertilizer to prevent yellow tips.  If you are growing it in standing water, you will need some pebbles to hold it upright. If in soil, try mixing a third each of sand, peat moss, and regular soil to ensure excellent drainage. For water only, make sure that your plant has at least enough to cover the base of the roots. You should also change the water at least once per week to prevent the plant from rotting. It is a good idea to rinse the vase, pebbles, and plant each time you do this. If you are growing the plant in soil, water the plant just enough so that the soil is moist. Your pot should be about 2 inches (5 cm) larger in diameter than the plant. Most Lucky Bamboo plants already come in a pot, but you can use your own pot to make the plant more your own.  A clear container works well for water and will show off your plant and pebbles, but make sure that you keep it out of direct sunlight. You can also use a ceramic pot and grow it in either pure water or in soil. If you use soil, plant the bamboo in a pot with a drain hole. Too much fertilizer is worse than none at all, so use it sparingly. This is especially true of potted plants because the fertilizer will not become diluted by rain and can’t run off like it will for plants in the ground.

TL;DR in English: Decide between water or soil. Choose the right container. Add a very light fertilizer periodically for quicker growth.

Miranda Kerr’s hair is long with layers, so it is quite versatile. Layers also give long hair added body and volume. If you have long hair and you think that you would like to have some layers, go for a long layers cut. If you have short or medium length hair, you can still get a layered cut for the volumizing effects.  Just make sure that you chose a haircut that you will like. Even if you don’t have the same haircut and color as Miranda Kerr, you can learn from her style by mastering a few simple hairstyles to use on busy days. Miranda’s hair is always well-styled when she goes out, even if it is just a casual outing, and you can keep your hair looking at its best as well by having a few go-to dos to use when you have a busy day ahead.  Try a top knot. The top knot is one of Miranda’s go-to hairstyles and it is extremely easy. Simply brush your hair into a high ponytail and secure it with an elastic band. Then twist the ponytail until it begins to coil around the elastic band. Wrap the twisted hair around the elastic band and then secure it with a few bobby pins. Pull a couple of strands loose and you are good to go! Miranda Kerr wears he hair curly some days and other days blown straight. Try out both looks and see which one looks best on you. Miranda Kerr is not a risk taker when it comes to her hair color. She knows what color works best with her skin tone, features, and eye color, which is why she looks so good. Stick to shades that complement your own face shape, skin color, and eye color.

TL;DR in English: Get a layered haircut. Master some easy styles for busy days. Experiment with curling and blow drying your hair. Keep your hair color subtle.

If you want to give your child juice, limit her to six ounces a day. It's best to let her drink it during meals so it doesn't sit on her teeth. If you want to extend the amount because your child refuses plain water at meals, try mixing the juice with water. Offer juice only in a cup, not a bottle. Every kid loves sweet things, but you should try to limit how much sugary foods your child eats, from candy to soda. Encourage her to eat fruits and vegetables instead. If your child needs a drink between meals, fill her bottle or sippy cup with water. That way, she's not constantly sipping on sugar, which can lead to tooth decay. At about six months, show your child how to use a sippy cup. At about a year, it's time to wean your child off the bottle. Bottles encourage drinking over time, leaving the liquid on your child's teeth. Sippy cups help limit this effect.  If she cries persistently without the bottle, try feeding your child the milk yourself, cleaning her teeth, and putting her down with just water. Or, you can try giving your baby a pacifier instead. In some cases, children lose interest in sleeping with a bottle if it is filled with water, in which case you can stop providing one at all.

TL;DR in English: Limit juice intake. Limit sugar intake in general. Give your child water between meals. Wean your child off a bottle.

. Mastitis can develop at any point during the nursing process, but many women who experience it in the first four weeks of nursing, when their breasts are still very engorged. It occurs more often in first-time mothers who are new to breastfeeding. Speak to your physician or midwife about how to breastfeed properly so you can prevent mastitis.  At the beginning of your pregnancy, your doctor or midwife will likely provide you with handouts and information booklets preparing you for pregnancy, delivery, breastfeeding, and the first few weeks with your new baby. If she doesn't offer these materials to you, ask for them. After the baby is born, don't hesitate to talk to a medical professional if you need help learning to breastfeed. It's important that you start your time as a mother by learning how to breastfeed properly to ensure your baby gets the nutrients she needs and to prevent mastitis. Having consistent feeding times will prevent your breasts from becoming too full of milk. A full breast can lead to engorgement, which can lead to an episode of mastitis. You should breastfeed every one to three hours, or whenever your baby is hungry.  If you know you're going to have to miss a feeding, pump your milk to empty your breasts at the scheduled time for the feeding. If your breasts feel full before the regularly scheduled feeding time, it's important to empty them. If milk sits in your breasts, it will thicken, impeding flow and possibly lead to mastitis.  You don't have to wait for your baby to tell you it is feeding time. Your baby will more likely than not nurse a little when offered the breast. Don't be afraid to wake your baby if you have to. It is better to interrupt baby's sleep and drain the breast than to put yourself at risk of developing mastitis. All babies have different nursing needs and all mothers have different milk supplies. Some babies will drain a breast entirely in 10 minutes while others can suckle for up to 30 minutes on each breast. Get to know your baby's nursing needs and allow him...

From 3 - 6 months old a kitten's job is to learn to hunt, because in the wild it would live by catching vermin and eating them. It is important to give the kitten an outlet for this behavior in play. Give it plenty of toys to stalk, chase, and pounce on. For example, kittens like small stuffed animal toys that they can carry around like prey. You can purchase cat toys but you don't have to spend money to make toys. A scrunched up ball of paper, a small soft toy tied onto a length of string, empty cotton reels, and ping-pong balls in an empty bathtub all make fantastic toys. Keep its interest in the toys by rotating the toys it has available, rather than leaving them all out all the time. Put some away, so that when it sees them it's like having a new toy all over. Have friends come over too meet the kitten. Play music on the stereo, run the vacuum, and let it see running water in the bath. These will help your kitten to understand, and enjoy instead of being afraid of, the variety of things that will happen in its life. Engage in play sessions by flicking a ball for it to chase, directing a laser pointer, and playing with a wing-on-a-string. This gives the kitten an outlet for its energy and helps it to bond with you.

TL;DR in English: Give the kitten toys. Avoid letting the kitten get bored. Make sure to expose the kitten to all sorts of sounds and experiences. Play with your kitten.

Sit on your couch, bed, or floor and place a pillow behind your back for support. Put a nursing pillow designed for twins firmly around your waist and set a pillow underneath it for extra support. You can also set single nursing pillows on both of your sides so you can set the babies there once you've finished breastfeeding them.  You may want to have someone help you get used to setting up the pillow supports and handing you the babies (especially if they're newborns). Some double nursing pillows actually strap around your waist. You can place the babies in the double football or clutch hold so that one baby is on each of your sides. You should be able to tuck the babies under your arms (like a football). The babies' tummies should be touching your tummy and they shouldn't be on their backs. Their feet should be pointed towards your back and you can support the shoulders, neck, and head with your arm. This hold works well for preterm or smaller babies. It's also a good choice if you had a C-section since it keeps pressure off of your stomach. Start by latching whichever baby has an easier time of latching on. Once that baby is securely on your breast, help the other baby latch on to the other breast. This will give you a chance to help the baby that might be struggling more to latch on. If you have preterm or very young babies, you may want to place a small rolled up cloth right behind their heads. This will give them a little extra support. If you have a pillow underneath your nursing pillow, your babies should be raised up a little towards your breasts. For simultaneous breastfeeding, their legs should be wrapped around your sides and almost tucked around your back. The babies should be on their sides rather than their backs while they're breastfeeding. Your main goal is that they remain latched on and don't roll back or off of the nursing pillow. You don't need to stop and switch breasts as long as both babies are nursing well. You may need to help a baby latch on if it slips off, but give it a chance to...

Take off the rubber band and lid cover, then stick a straw down into the liquid without disturbing the gelatinous “mother” floating on the surface. Press your thumb against the open end of the straw to trap some vinegar inside the straw. Remove the straw from the jar, place the straw into a small glass, and let go with your thumb to discharge the vinegar into the glass. You can use a disposable plastic straw or a reusable straw for this task. Take a small sip of the vinegar. If it is either too weak (because the fermentation process hasn’t proceeded enough) or too sharp and intense (because vinegar mellows over time), re-cover it and give it another 2 weeks to ferment. Keep tasting the vinegar every 1-2 weeks until it meets your approval. Carefully remove the gelatinous blob floating on the surface of your finished vinegar, and transfer it to a new jar of starter liquid (for instance, equal parts of wine and water). This way, you can continuously churn out new batches of homemade vinegar! Alternatively, you can slowly pour out nearly all of the vinegar in your jar, leaving just a small amount in the bottom with the “mother” still floating in it. Then, refill the jar with more alcohol and start a new batch in this original jar. After removing the "mother" from the fermenting jar (or leaving it behind in the jar), pour the vinegar into a medium saucepan. Place it on the stove over medium-low heat and use a probe thermometer to check the temperature. When the temperature is over 140 °F (60 °C) but less than 160 °F (71 °C), remove the pot from the heat and let the vinegar cool to room temperature.  This process of pasteurizing the vinegar will enable it to be stored indefinitely at room temperature and low light in a glass container.  You can skip pasteurizing the vinegar if you wish, and it will still probably store for months or even possibly years without any noticeable decline in quality or flavor. But this quick step is worth the effort to ensure the long-term quality of your homemade vinegar. Place an...

TL;DR in English: Siphon out some vinegar with a straw after 2 months. Taste the siphoned vinegar, and give the batch more time as needed. Spoon out the “mother” if you want to reuse it in a new vinegar batch. Pasteurize the vinegar so it will keep indefinitely. Bottle the finished vinegar through a filter and funnel. Don't use homemade vinegar for canning, preserving, or room temperature storage.

The first priority is to make sure that the victim does not ingest any more gasoline.  If the victim is unconscious, proceed directly to Step 3. If you suspect that your child has swallowed gasoline but don't know how much, treat this as an emergency situation and call Emergency Services immediately. .  Explain the situation in as much detail as you can.  If the victim is a child, make it very clear that you require immediate assistance. If the victim is conscious, reassure him that help is on the way, and do not encourage vomiting. If the person seems able, offer him water to drink, and help him remove any gasoline-covered clothing and rinse any gasoline from his skin. If person vomits, help him lean forward, or turn his head to the side to prevent choking and aspiration. Roll the victim onto his back, and begin chest compressions. For each compression, push down on the center of the victim's chest 2 inches (5.1 cm), or 1/3 to 1/2 the depth of the chest.  Give 30 rapid compressions at a rate of about 100 per minute.  Then tilt the victim's head back, and lift his chin.  Pinch the victim's nose, and blow into his mouth until you see him chest rise.  Give two breaths that each last about 1 second, and then another series of chest compressions.  Repeat the cycle of 30 chest compressions and two breaths until the victim recovers or help arrives. If you are on the phone with emergency services, the operator will coach you through the process of administering CPR. The Red Cross now recommends that CPR should be administered to a child in the same way it is given to adults, with the exception that in an infant or small child, the compressions should only be 1 1⁄2 inches (3.8 cm) deep instead of 2 inches.

TL;DR in English: Get the gasoline away from the person. Assume that a child who has swallowed any amount of gasoline is in danger. Call Emergency Services Monitor the victim closely. If the victim stops breathing, coughing or moving, and does not respond to your voice, begin CPR immediately.

Assure your parents that any risks associated with lip piercing are significantly reduced by choosing a piercer certified by the Association of Professional Piercers. This organization screens and approves piercing businesses according to their compliance with general standards, including licensing and the use of proper sterilization facilities. Try asking your parents to do a search with you for an APP-certified piercer in your area, using the organization’s member search page. If they seem to be unsure about letting you get the piercing, ask your parents to go with you to an initial consultation with a piercer at an APP-certified business. The piercer should explain the procedure, possible complications, care for the piercing, and a timeline for healing. Having a clearer understanding of these aspects will help your parents decide, and most likely reduce their fears about the risks. While at the piercing shop, ask an employee about recent spore test results. Every reputable piercing business should have these. They show proof of the proper working order of the autoclave, which sterilizes the piercing equipment and jewelry. Make a point to ask about these test results yourself. This will demonstrate to your parents that you're taking the whole process seriously, and are genuinely concerned about health and safety issues related to the piercing. Try not to give your parents the impression that they need to decide right away. If they feel that they’re being pressured to give you an answer, there’s a greater chance that they’ll just say “no.” Remember that this is probably a major decision for them, so give them time to think it over and discuss it with others. This also shows them that you’re mature enough to be able to wait some time for an answer. For example, you can introduce the idea by saying something like, “Mom, I’d like to ask you something pretty serious. I know this might be a hard decision for you, so please don’t feel like you need to decide right away. You’ll probably want to take some time to...

If the instructions for your eraser clay say to let them set using an oven, preheat it to the instructed time. Arrange your eraser designs on a baking sheet so they aren’t touching one another.   For most eraser clay, preheat the oven to 250° F (130° C). Bake erasers for 20 minutes per ¼ inch (6 mm) thickness.  You may want to bake smaller eraser designs separate from larger ones, as they will likely have different cooking times. Use a piece of aluminum foil or wax paper on the baking sheet to keep the erasers from sticking. Make sure children have adult supervision during this step. If the instructions for your eraser clay say to let them set using boiling water, pour water into a pot and place it on the stove. Set the water to boil, then place your eraser designs into the boiling water for a few minutes.   Make sure you have enough water in the pot to completely cover your eraser clay designs. For most eraser clay that uses this method, leave the erasers in the boiling water for 5 minutes, then turn off the burner and allow them to sit in the water as it cools.  Remove the erasers from the water safely using a slotted spoon and set them to dry on a paper towel or napkin. Use caution and have an adult present for this entire step. After setting in the oven or on the stove, let your erasers cool for a couple of hours. Then enjoy using your personalized erasers to remove any pencil marks.  Test your erasers out when they’ve cooled down. If they are too soft, you may need to set them for longer. If they are too hard, you may need to try again and set them for less time. If they are too brittle, you may want to try again with thicker shapes. Store your erasers in a container that seals tightly to make your erasers last as long as possible. They may become too dry and brittle for proper use if exposed to the air over a long period of time.

TL;DR in English: Set the erasers in the oven. Set in boiling water. Allow erasers to cool before use.

One type of 3D glasses commonly used in theaters uses polarized filters for lenses, and special projectors that polarize light. Think of the polarizing filter as a barred window: light oriented (polarized) vertically passes between the bars and reaches your eye, while light oriented horizontally can't get through the bars and gets reflected away. With the "bars" over each eye pointing in different directions, each eye picks up a different image, and your brain interprets the two images as a single 3D image. Unlike the red-blue glasses, this image can contain any number of colors. Making these glasses at home is probably more expensive than buying a pair, especially since any theater experience or TV that relies this technology probably comes with a pair of glasses. But if you're interested in the project, purchase a sheet of "linearly polarized" or "plane polarized" plastic film. Rotate the film 45º from the vertical, then cut out a lens. Rotate the film another 90º in either direction, and cut out the second lens. This is the most common design, but you may need to rotate the lens while looking at the 3D image to see what works. Just make sure to rotate both lenses at the same time, since they should always be made from film oriented exactly 90º apart. The actual explanation of polarized light is more technical than described above. Modern 3D glasses usually use circular polarized light, which doesn't require the viewer to keep his head still while watching. To make these lenses at home, you would need one sheet of counterclockwise circular polarized plastic, and one sheet of clockwise polarized plastic (also called left- and right-handed). This is more expensive than linear filters. Sometimes called "Active 3D," this technology requires advanced design that can't be copied at home. In order to send a different image to each eye (which is the cornerstone of all 3D technology), the television monitor switches rapidly between two different images, many times per second. The special glasses you wear while...

Men like a little makeup. They think it's hot if you use makeup to bring out the natural beauty of your eyes or to highlight the lushness of your lips. But that's the key: It has to look natural. You don't want to look too much like a tomgirl who never wears makeup, but you also shouldn't cake it on.  Use shimmer powder or lotion with shimmer in it so that your body glistens. Put it on your cleavage and shoulders.   Try using subtle fake lashes. He will be unlikely to realize what you've done differently, but beautiful eyes with lush lashes are definitely going to attract him. Men aren't fans of bright eye makeup colors like green or bright blues. A better choice if you're going out is a smoky eye. Use grays, silvers, golds, browns, and blacks to create the smoky eye look. Apply the powder under your eye, and above the eyelid. But if you do, choose a neutral lip.   Don't overuse eye liner or lip liner. Maybe try the Angelina Jolie look - black liquid liner subtly applied to the upper lid, and peachy or brown colored eye shadow, with a little black mascara. Take care of your hygiene. If you don't show that you respect yourself, why will he respect you?  Get a bikini wax. Try something different "down there" to surprise him. Regular bikini waxes might be a little painful, but they will make you more confident. Get your nails done professionally. Chipped nails aren't hot. Shave your legs and your underarms. Obvious things - but crucial. Get your eyebrows professionally shaped. Just go to any nail or beauty salon, and they will probably be able to wax them fairly cheaply. You will be surprised how grooming your brows can immediately improve your look. What you wear - on your nails, your clothing - will trigger different sensations in him depending on the colors you choose.  Think red. It will make him think you're hot.

The best way to resolve any fight is through open communication.  Find somewhere quiet and invite your brother to talk about the situation with you. Enter the conversation with a positive attitude. If you are defensive or upset he will sense it in you. If you are feeling frustrated by his behavior, tell him. Your brother may not understand the consequences of his actions. Be honest about your emotions One good way to share your feelings is through the "I-Message" method. . Create a sentence using: "I feel_____________when you___________because___________." This will prevent your little brother from feeling attacked. It may feel from your perspective that you have done nothing wrong. But younger children are often sensitive and feel powerless. Let your brother know that you are on his side and are trying to fix the problem by apologizing. Sometimes it is necessary to let go of your pride in order to solve a conflict, especially with someone younger than you. Young children often feel their feelings are unheard in a family. Show him that you care about him and understand him by being a good listener.

It easy to think that a pet is underweight, whereas the reality could be that he is just less heavy than an obese dog of the same breed that you happen to know. Maybe your dog is actually fine, but it's the other dog that is too fat! For dogs that are thin but full of energy and producing formed feces, the first step is to check they are getting enough calories per meal. A dog may lose weight because it uses up more calories than it is eating. This may be straightforward -- as when the dog isn't being fed enough food. If this is the case, then increasing his portion size should do the trick.  The simplest way to do this is compare your dog's ideal weight with the suggested feeding amount on the food packaging. If your dog is a specific breed, there is lots of information online about what is that breed's ideal weight. Go with the weight you want the dog to be, rather than the weight it is at the moment. For example, if you own a male Labrador then an average sized dog should weigh up to 40kg. Measure out a typical portion of your dog's daily food allowance by weight. Make a note of the weight of the food and compare it to the recommended amount from the food packaging.  It's interesting to note that some of these recommendations are actually 25% above what the dog needs (they tend to be on the generous side, rather than the skimpy side). If you are giving your Labrador 400g of kibble a day, and the packaging advises 500g a day, then your dog is being fed 20% less calories than the recommended and so it will lose weight. This is easily rectified by increasing the amount of his daily allowance. This can be a difficult decision because each food contains different amounts of calories and the size of dogs vary so much. As a rule of thumb, increase the food by no more than 10% of the original quantity.  So if you were feeding 400g a day, an extra 10% adds another 40g, which you would split into 2 meals of 20g each additional. Feed this for 2 -3 days and check the dog doesn't have diarrhea, at which point you can...

Preheat the oven to 400 °F (204 °C) and line a sheet with parchment paper. Bake the turkey meatballs for 15 to 20 minutes. Serve the turkey meatballs with noodles or bread.

For maximum use, place the posts where the cat is going to get "value" from using it as a territory marker. Good places for a scratching posts include near entrances or exits, near a window, or in front of an object she already favors as a scratching post.  Do NOT place the post in an inconspicuous, out of the way place. Your cat will ignore it. Make sure that the post is positioned in a way that your cat likes to scratch. For example, if your cat prefers to scratch vertical surfaces, like the side of the sofa, make sure that the post is in a vertical position. Cats often like to scratch after waking up, so place a scratching post near your cat’s favorite napping spot as well. If your cat likes to scratch furniture, consider wrapping the part she likes to scratch in tin foil or double sided sticky tape. Cats hate the feel of tin foil and sticky surfaces so it should discourage your cat from scratching. You can also cover the sofa with rugs, but this can be an imperfect solution because your cat may just start scratching the rugs. If you catch your cat in the act of scratching something she should not be scratching, clap your hands loudly to interrupt the behavior. Do not yell at your cat or punish her physically. Just pick up your cat and take her to the scratching post. Doing this will give her the idea that you want her to scratch there. You can make scratching posts more attractive to your cat using her own scent or some catnip. Try showing your cat how to use a post by rubbing her paws on it or rub some catnip into the scratching post to draw her attention to it.   Encourage your cat to use the post by making gentle scratching motions with her paws on the post. Doing so will help to add her scent to the post make her more likely to use it. Make sure that you praise your cat while you do this. Try spritzing the scratching post with Feliway. Feliway is a synthetic feline pheromone that makes cats feel safe and secure. It also amplifies her scent signals, which she will appreciate.

TL;DR in English: Place the posts somewhere that your cat can access them with ease. Make your cat’s favorite piece of furniture unappealing. Clap your hands to discourage your cat from scratching. Make scratching posts more attractive to your cat.

Without adding food coloring, the crystals will be clear and take on the color of your pipe cleaners. If you want the crystals to be tinted with color, add 4 drops of food coloring to the solution and stir it in. Try adding 4 drops of blue food coloring for light blue snowflakes, or 2 drops of blue and 2 drops of red food coloring for purple snowflakes.

TL;DR in English: Add 3 drops of food coloring, if desired.

Places where the soil doesn't drain well after rain or that are exposed to high winds are not good for snails. Pick a location that has ample space and won't be exposed to the harsh elements.  A trench is the perfect location for a snail pen because it's not exposed to high-winds. Being on the bottom of a hill or surrounded by trees will also protect your farm. You can purchase snail pen fencing material online or from most hardware stores. Popular fencing materials include corrugated metal or plastic, chicken wire, or a woven material. The purpose of the pen is to keep the snails in. Choose a material within your budget, and get enough of it so you can build a 5x5 meter (16.4x16.4) pen.  You can make the perimeter of your fence larger if you want to house more snails. Larger snail farms can be anywhere from 1000 square meters  (3280.84 square feet) to 10,000 square meters (32808.4 square feet) in size. You can purchase wooden fence posts at the same store that you bought your fencing. Space each post 1.25 meters  (four feet) away from each other so that there are 5 posts on each side of your pen. This is the perimeter that you'll be using as your snail pen, and will be what you wrap your fencing material around. Use a shovel to dig the trench outside of each of the wooden posts around the perimeter of your snail farm. This will house the bottom of your fencing material. Take your fencing material and wrap it tightly around the wooden posts. Put the bottom of the fence into the trench that you dug earlier. This will ensure that the snails can't escape and that larger predators won't be able to dig under the pen. Use a shovel and fill the trench in with dirt. Once the trench is covered, make sure to pat down the soil in the area so that the fence stays under the ground. Your snail pen is now ready. Snails prefer damp, loamy soil with low acidity and a lot of organic matter. Go to a home and gardening store and get one that has a pH of 7 or lower to encourage good snail health. Pour the soil into the snail...

TL;DR in English: Pick a wind-free moist location for your pen. Choose a fencing material. Create the snail pen perimeter by driving posts into the ground. Dig a .4 meter (1.3 foot) deep trench around the posts. Wrap and staple the wire mesh around your posts. Cover the trench with dirt. Lay down moist, loamy soil. Choose a well-ventilated container if starting a small, personal farm.

Try not to worry, but this is an emergency situation. Low platelets can make it hard for your blood to clot, which means you could lose a lot of blood. Visit an emergency room or urgent care center to get prompt treatment. They will help limit your blood loss and give you a transfusion, if necessary.Bleeding that won’t stop can quickly become a serious condition, so don’t hesitate to see a doctor. Low platelets are caused by several conditions. Since some of them are serious, it’s important that you work with your doctor to create a treatment plan. By managing the cause of your low platelets, you may be able to raise your platelet levels. Here are some conditions or substances that may lower your platelets:  Leukemia HIV Hepatitis C Anemia Chemotherapy Excessive alcohol Autoimmune diseases Bacterial infections Hemolytic uremic syndrome Malfunctioning spleen Certain medications, like blood thinners and anticonvulsants If you have an underlying condition, your doctor will offer you a treatment plan for addressing it. Additionally, they may offer you treatments specifically for your low platelet levels, like a blood transfusion. Undergoing medical treatment doesn’t mean that you can’t continue to treat your condition naturally. Let your doctor know your preferences, but take their advice when they suggest you use medical treatments.  If medication is causing your condition, your doctor may adjust or change the medication. Alternatively, they may offer supportive treatments until you finish a round of treatment, such as with chemotherapy. If your low blood platelets are caused by a treatable infection or disease, your doctor will provide you with medication or a medical procedure to treat the illness. If your spleen is the problem, they may surgically remove it so your platelet level may be restored. An autoimmune disease may be controlled by a corticosteroid or immune system suppressant.

TL;DR in English: Get emergency treatment if you have bleeding that won’t stop. Treat your underlying condition to help raise your platelets. Discuss your treatment options with your doctor.

Get out a rimmed baking sheet and tear off a piece of parchment paper. Lay it on the baking sheet and set it aside. Although you don't have to use the parchment paper, it will prevent the meatballs from sticking to the sheet and it will make clean up easier. Leave the turkey meatballs to cook until they reach an internal temperature of 165 °F (74 °C) with a meat thermometer. The meatballs should become a rich brown color. Remove the sheet of meatballs from the oven and spoon them into warm pasta sauce. Then serve the turkey meatballs with cooked pasta, steamed rice, or crusty bread. Store the leftover meatballs in an airtight container for up to 3 to 4 days.

Write in plain, succinct language that any audience can understand. In order to sell your screenplay, your reader must first understand what your plot is about. If you use jargon or flowery language, your reader probably won’t bother going past the first few paragraphs. If you pad your synopsis with unnecessary adjectives or adverbs, it’s no longer a synopsis. Stay brief, and you’ll be one step closer to your goal. Ask them to look for errors in spelling, grammar, and any information that isn’t clear to them. This could be a friend, family member, or colleague. If they have any questions or if something isn't clear to them, change your synopsis to make the story clearer. If your reader finds something in your synopsis that’s unclear or confusing, they won’t request your full screenplay. Many organizations you may submit your synopsis to publish submission guidelines. Change your synopsis, if necessary, to fit those guidelines. The agent, movie studio, or other reader will likely request changes to fit established word counts or page counts. Follow those suggestions exactly if you want your synopsis to pass the next round.

TL;DR in English: Avoid extravagant language. Give your synopsis to other people to proofread. Prepare to make edits.

. This part may be hard but just take a deep breath and try to gather your thoughts! Remember where you left all those textbooks and gather together some spare pieces of paper and pens. Highlighters and flashcards are also a good idea. If you still have your syllabus, great. Use it as an outline. The topics that pop up more than once are likely to be on the test. Concentrate on the bigger picture -- highlight the important facts that you think could be on the test. Also remember to look closely at the vocabulary! It will obviously help your understanding if you know what a word means. Read the chapter summaries (they usually do a good job at summarizing the important points). If there are no chapter summaries, then skim through the text and write down key ideas. This is the most important part of cramming. You have a very limited amount of time -- you must use it as efficiently as possible. Get down to the nitty-gritty and only study what you think is worthy of being on the test.  Focus on the main ideas and learn key formulas. Skip the details for now and only come back to them if you see that you have time after you have learned the key points. Don't attempt to learn everything; focus on things that will get you the most points on the exam. If your professor said the essay will be 75% of your grade, you're best off preparing for that and skipping the multiple choice. This will help your brain process the material better. If you just skim your textbooks or notes you probably won't remember anything! If you're lucky enough to have an insomniac for a roommate, grab them. Ask them to listen to you spout off about certain concepts. Relaying information to another individual is a surefire way to guarantee you understand the ins and outs of the ideas. . This is a good way to quiz yourself and it also helps you process the information when you write out the flashcards and read them out loud! Use different colors for different topics or chapters.  Look for parallels, metaphors, and other memory-triggers to help you...

TL;DR in English: Stay calm Start at the beginning; don't focus on the little details! Prioritize. Write out important info or recite small bits out loud. Make flash cards Take breaks.

Some kits, such as IDENTIGENE for DNA paternity tests, may be found at pharmacies like Walmart and Walgreens. Other kits can be ordered online at the manufacturer’s website. Some options are AncestryDNA for genealogy analysis and 23andMe for health risk analysis. After you receive the kit, use the included tools to gather your DNA sample. The kits either have cheek swabs or saliva containers. Swab the inside of your cheek or spit into the container. DNA tests to establish paternity require a sample from parents as well as the child. The kit will come with packaging to mail back to the testing facility. For example, your paternity DNA test may have several envelopes. Record the name of the sample provider and their personal information, including age and ethnicity.  Many DNA test companies operate online. The sample kit will have a barcode that you must register on the company’s website. DNA samples to establish paternity require signatures from the sample providers. Fill out the order form with your information. This will indicate you as the results recipient. The envelopes are typically prepaid, so all you have to do is slip them into a mailbox. Go to the company’s website. If you haven’t already, set up an account by registering your email and setting a password. Simple paternity tests can be completed relatively quickly, but lengthier ancestry and health risk analysis DNA test will take longer. The test results often require more analysis to be illuminating. For example, a health-based DNA test will reveal how much more likely you are to get a certain disease than someone else. Don’t worry yet and don’t disregard any treatment plans your doctor has already given you. Call the company or enlist the help of your doctor to interpret the results before you change your lifestyle.  Paternity tests need to be submitted to the court system to be considered official. For ancestry tests, research your family tree to gather more information about your lineage.

TL;DR in English: Purchase a kit. Gather saliva samples. Document the source of the sample. Mail the samples to the company. Check the results online. Seek counseling for your results.

She really does care about you and would love to hear about what's going on in your life. Spending time with you will help her understand you better and trust you more. This will be important for when you ask her to go places.  Try talking to her about school, your friends, what you're feeling, etc. Ask her to go to the mall, the movies, for a walk, etc. As a teenager, your main responsibility is performing well in school, so if you're not already doing this, you've already given your mom a trump card to deny your requests. Hit the books to show her that you take your school work seriously.  If you get a good grade, be sure to show her! If you're not doing well in school, show her how hard you're trying by doing your homework where she can see you, or by signing up for tutoring. If you have chores assigned to you, don't wait to be reminded to do them. Get them done even before your mom expects them to be. This will show her that you are hard-working, responsible, and that she can trust you.  Letting your industriousness surprise your mom is better than telling her how great you are for doing your chores. Let her find out on her own. Go above and beyond. If your mom asks you to do something, do it -- and more. For instance, if she asks you to tidy your room, vacuum it, too. This shows how you're taking initiative, and she'll appreciate that. This goes for at school and at home: if you want your mom to trust you to go places, act mature and respectful.  You don't have to be perfect, we all mess up sometimes, but try your best.  Be polite and say "Please" and "Thank you." Don't get into fights at school. Respect your mom's friends by listening to them when they speak and politely engaging them in small talk.

TL;DR in English: Spend time with your mom. Work hard at school. Perform chores without being told. Demonstrate good behavior.

You can plan out your whole day ahead of time to go as smoothly and successfully as possible, but get a flat tire on the way to work that throws off your whole schedule.  Adapting to changes like this and keeping your focus on how to alter your schedule can help you remain positive and mindful the rest of your day instead of feeling resentful or helpless. Learn how to tell the difference between what you can and cannot control to help you move forward with your life.   Remember that you cannot control what other people do, but you have complete control over how you react to everything around you.  Your emotions are solely your responsibility. Reflect on things that contributed to your current position.  What could you have done differently then?  Can you use this experience to apply such lessons to your future behaviors and actions to make sure you don’t repeat yourself? .  Since you have been able to fully assess and accept your current situation and what you don’t like about it, as well as how your actions contributed to creating it, you can now decide how you want your life to be different in the future. Think of a general goal and then come up with a definite smaller goal that will help you get there.  Do you want to find a new job, lose a healthy amount of weight, learn to better handle your finances, or develop stronger and healthier relationship skills? If you want a new job, do you need more training or education? Do you need to start practicing for interviews and hiring a resume consultant? Will you start spending an hour every morning looking through want-ads? If your goal is to lose weight, start with a specific goal, like fitting into those pants you love and haven’t been able to wear in two years.  How much lost weight will it take to get into those pants again? Avoid non-specific goals like, “I want to be thin” or long-term ones like “I need to lose 100 lbs.” Focus on specific goals you can obtain in the near future, such as “I will walk for 30 minutes every day this week.” Include steps you...

TL;DR in English: Focus on what you can control. Decide what you want for yourself in the future Make a plan for reaching your goal.

In order to locate the break or leak in the sprinkler system, you need to run water through it. Turn on the sprinkler system to activate the flow of water. Allow the water to run for about 2 minutes before you check the lines. After you turn on the sprinkler system, walk through the area where the sprinkler system is installed. Listen for running water and walk towards where you hear the sound to locate the leak in your sprinkler line. You may not be able to find the leak just by listening, but it can help you narrow down your search. If you see water spraying out of the line instead of the sprinkler head, then there’s a crack or leak in the line. Once you’ve identified where the leak is, mark the location so you can find it when the water is turned off. If the sprinkler line is exposed enough for you to see water spraying out of a break or crack, check the line for a visible crack, and use a marker to mark the location of the leak. If you see a pool of water or water coming from the soil, then there’s a leak in the sprinkler line buried underneath. Mark the general location of the leak or break so you can identify it when the water is turned off. Place an item like a shovel or a rock on the ground near the leak. If you’re having trouble finding water leaking out into the ground, check the sprinkler heads. If you notice a row of them aren’t spraying water or are spraying much less water than other sprinkler heads, then the line is broken and the water isn’t reaching them. The break or leak in the water line will be located between the last working sprinkler head and the first nonworking one. If you’ve found the signs of a leak and located the region where the line is leaking or broken, turn off the water so you can repair the line. Use the shut off valve in the control box to stop the flow of water through the system.  Wait 1-2 minutes to allow the water to finish flowing through the system. Be sure to shut the valve completely so there isn’t water flowing through the line when you make your repairs.

TL;DR in English: Turn on the sprinkler system. Listen for the sound of running water. See if there’s water spouting out of a section of the line. Check for water bubbling up from the soil. Look for a series of sprinkler heads that aren’t working properly. Turn off the sprinkler system after you’ve found the leak.

. Semi-formal attire can be confusing, since these days it generally means formal. Basically think of full formal as being ball gowns and your nicest tux (with cuff links!). Semi-formal, then, becomes cocktail dresses and suits with colorful button down shirts (tie optional). . It's business...but it's casual? Seems like it would be a huge contradiction, right? It's not as complex as it sounds. Generally, you take one half of your outfit and make it more casual, while maintaining business attire on the other.  For example, jeans, formal shoes, a button down shirt (no tie), and suit jacket. Another example would be wearing formal pants and shoes but a more party-friendly blouse (as long as it's not revealing). . Of course, dressing for a party is a bit complicated. It really depends on what kind of party it is! Know ahead of time whether it's a costume or not. Beyond that, always err on the side of too-formal. Dressing slightly nicer than what you expect everyone else will be dressed as. If you're over-dressed, just say that you so rarely get an excuse to dress nice, you wanted to take the chance. . You can probably guess that it would be in bad form to dress in all black for a wedding, unless you're one of the guys putting on a tux....but beyond that, you're clueless. The best advice is to dress semi-formal and in pastel, happy colors. Woman should avoid going to bright and should never wear mostly white, as this is seen as trying to draw attention away from the bride. . Dressing like a pro for an interview is one of the most important things you can do to land a job. But how exactly do you dress? Like with a party, it's a good idea to dress just a little bit nicer than is maybe necessary. Dress not like how you would expect to dress in that position, but rather dress how you would expect to if you were going to have your new boss' job.

Cargo skirts fit in a similar way to denim. The fabric doesn't flow very much, so they can look boxy if not paired with a the right shirt. Throw on a figure-flattering, fitted shirt to highlight your curves. If you prefer a looser blouse, tuck it to highlight your waist while smoothing over your tummy. If you're rocking your cargo skirt on a chilly day, throw on a pair of black tights and a comfy pullover sweatshirt. To maintain the figure-flattering shape of your look, tuck the front of the sweater into your skirt. You can also throw a dark vest on over your t-shirt for a layered, outdoorsy look. Cargo skirts are great for a casual overall look, so pair them with your favorite pair of sneakers. For a slightly dressier but still relaxed look, wear a pair of flats that match the color of your top. Protect yourself from the sun with a baseball hat, which plays well with the sporty look of a cargo skirt. On a colder day, throw on a slouchy beanie to match your top.

TL;DR in English: Go with a fitted shirt, or tuck in a looser blouse. Wear a casual sweatshirt and tights if it's cold. Grab a comfortable, sporty pair of flats or sneakers. Accessorize with a hat.

A common misconception about having an infected ingrown toenail is that it needs to be cut. Contrary to popular belief, cutting the nail can make the infection worse. It can also cause more ingrown toenails in the future. Leave the nail uncut, and prop it up to relieve pressure. The toenail may need to be cut by a doctor, but should not be done at home in ‘bathroom surgery’. It may be tempting to try to relieve pressure or lift the nail from the skin by digging at the skin underneath. Do not do this because it can intensify an infection and make the ingrown nail worse. Stay away from your toenails with tweezers, orange sticks, clippers, files, or any other metal tools. There is a popular conception that you should use a needle to puncture a blister or a pustule caused by an infection. You should not do this because it will just make it worse. Even if you use clean tools and a sanitized needle, you can cause some serious damage by poking and prodding at a blister or infected wound. Avoid touching it with anything other than a cotton swab or bandaging materials. According to some old folk healing methods, you should cut a ‘V’ shape in the top of the infected toenail to relieve the pressure, which in turn will heal the nail. However, doing this does absolutely nothing except create a jagged edge on your nail. Do not believe urban health myths such as rubbing coal on your toe to make an infection go away. Although some people swear by this method, the coal won’t benefit the infection or the ingrown nail at all. In fact, this method may make it worse. In general, you should not put anything on your toe or the infected area except for antibiotic cream or bandages.

TL;DR in English:
