Feel what you are feeling. Name your recurring bad thoughts. Let go of anger, grudges, and resentment. Speak to a therapist.

One series of the HPV vaccine provides safe, long-lasting protection against many of the HPV strains that cause cancer (but not all). Because the vaccine is much more effective on young people, the Center for Disease Control recommends it for the following men:  All men 21 or younger (ideally at age 11 or 12 before sexual activity) All men who have sex with men at the age of 26 or younger All men with a compromised immune system age 26 or younger (including HIV positive men) Tell the provider about any severe allergies you have before getting the vaccine, especially to latex or yeast. . Genital warts may go away on their own after a few months, and will never lead to cancer. The main reason to treat them is your own comfort. Treatments include creams or ointments (such as Podofilox, Imiquimod, or Sinecatechins) which you can apply at home, or removal at the doctor's office by freezing (cryotherapy), acid, or surgery. A doctor can also apply vinegar to illuminate warts that aren't yet raised or visible.  You can transmit HPV even if you don't have symptoms, but the chances are higher while you have genital warts. Talk to your sexual partners about this risk, and cover the warts with condoms or other barriers if possible. Although the strains of HPV that cause genital warts do not cause cancer, you may have been exposed to more than one strain. You should still talk to your doctor if you have noticed any possible cancer signs or unexplained symptoms. HPV-related anal cancer rates are much higher among men who have sex with men. If you fall into this category, tell your doctor about your sexual orientation, and ask about the anal pap smear test. Your doctor may recommend a test every three years (one year if you are HIV positive) to screen for anal cancer.  Not all doctors agree that a regular screening is necessary or helpful, but they should still educate you about the test and allow you to make your own decision. If your doctor does not offer this service or cannot tell you about it, seek a second opinion. If...

TL;DR in English: Consider a vaccine. Treat genital warts Ask about anal cancer screening if you have sex with men. Examine yourself regularly. Discuss possible cancer symptoms with the doctor.

When you first hop onto Tinder, you're probably not thinking of anything related to your driving time. Once you get established though, you might have a fleeting thought along the lines of "I don't mind driving a lot!"  Be honest with yourself. 50 miles for a most likely mediocre date is a lot. I'm talking about 1 1/2 hours of driving to get coffee with someone who owns more cats than bars of soap. Don't do it; it's not worth it; you're better than that. It's important that when you're setting up your profile, you take a minute to think about how far you're willing to drive. If you're younger, consider the other person might not have a car (meaning you're driving the whole way. Or they are). A five-mile max distance means that any user who fits your age and gender will show up. If you set it to 1 mile, then Tinder will show you people within a 1-mile radius from where you are at that time.  When you change location, then you are moving the center of the radius and will find different people. One reason people change their distance radius is to get more opportunities because they've already seen most of the people closer to them. The default is 50 miles. If you’re in a major city, you might want to reduce it to 15 miles; choose a longer distance if you live in a less populated area.

TL;DR in English: Consider how far you’re willing to drive to meet someone. Set the radius higher to get more matches.

Accept the grief, sadness, loneliness, regret, anxiety, guilt, insecurity, or other negative emotions in the order they come to you. Let yourself be sad, and let yourself heal. Ultimately, the surest path to getting over someone is to be honest with yourself. Don't bottle up your emotions. Ask your support system for advice, and try to understand what went wrong. If you aren't sure what to do next, these people may have the wisdom and insight to guide you.  Talk to parents, older siblings, aunts, uncles, grandparents – anyone that you feel comfortable asking for insight. You may even feel comfortable asking a favorite teacher or a leader in your community. Be careful who you trust. If you are spilling your guts to someone for whom your crush is a mutual friend, make sure that this person won't pass along what you say. It may be harder to get over the guy if there's gossip floating around. Consider that there are hundreds of thousands—even millions—of people with whom you can fall in love. He may seem like the one, but this doesn't mean that he is the only one. Nor does it mean you'll never find someone like him again. Think about why this crush didn't work out. Maybe you were into him, but he wasn't into you; maybe he was in a relationship already, or he had eyes for someone else; maybe you said something to turn him off, or he did something that made you decide that he was bad news. Whatever the circumstances, you cannot take back what has happened. You can only absorb this, learn from it, and grow.  Think about what you would have done differently. You might be able to successfully navigate a crush situation in the future by analyzing what went wrong with this guy. Think about the sort of person that you want to pursue. Maybe this guy just wasn't right for you, even if you found yourself attracted to him. Consider which qualities will guide your future crushes, and which personality traits you want to avoid.

TL;DR in English: Embrace your feelings for him, then let them go. Talk about your feelings with a friend, a relative, or a counselor. Remind yourself that this crush is just another fish in the sea. Learn from the experience.

You don't want to be running around looking for cleaning products with a wet dog in the tub, so have everything in one place before you start. You should also make sure that you're properly dressed in clothes you don't mind getting messy because you will get wet. At the very least, you will need:   Dog shampoo Treats Several towels Place one towel on the edge of the tub to keep water from splashing over the tub. The rest are for drying. Some dogs like to make a run for it during bath-time. If this describes your dog, buy a dog bath lead from the pet supply store. It's a leash that attaches to the shower's wall with a suction cup and keeps your dog in place during the bath. Replace the dog's regular collar with one that will not stain the coat or suffer water damage. A slip lead that adjusts to a struggling dog is best but the dog may choke itself no matter the restraint so monitor his breathing carefully and adjust or simply push them back when necessary. Use a squeegee or use your hand as a squeegee to force water off of the coat and body. Towel-dry him as best as you can while he's still in the tub, so you don't make a mess. Place the towel over your dog’s back, or hold it next to him and give permission to shake the water off their body. Many dogs will learn the “bath rules” and wait to shake until you have placed the towel over them to contain the water droplets.  Another type of towel to use is a chamois, which is a thin fleece-like towel that is designed to be wrung out when wet. It lessens the number of towels needed and does the bulk of the work. Using a chamois, then a towel makes drying less of a hassle. If you have a double-coated or long-haired dog, you may need to blow the coat dry.

TL;DR in English: Gather your supplies. Secure the dog in the bathtub. Dry your dog.

Welcome your emotions and learn to recognize and accept them. If you try to repress your feelings, you won't control them. They'll control you.  Get into the habit of writing through your feelings in a journal. You can analyze what is leading to what feeling, and you can also make a log to keep track of triggers. If you know what your triggers are for specific emotions, then you can do things to limit or avoid your triggers. Suppressing your feelings can give you health problems like insomnia, chronic pain, and heart disease. If you have insecurities, painful memories, or angry responses that come to you frequently, it might help to give them a name. For instance, if you always feel angry when someone cuts you off in traffic, name that feeling "The Got-Cut-Off-In-Traffic-Feeling."  When the feeling or thought is triggered, greet it by name. "Oh, it's the got-cut-off-in-traffic-feeling again." This will help you take some distance and prevent the bad thought from taking over. Forgive those who have wronged you. Forgiveness can lead to empathy and compassion for those who have betrayed you. It will make you calm and in control.  If you want, contact people you are still in touch with and let them know that you have let go of your anger. Forgiveness doesn't mean that you condone bad acts—it just means that you release the negative feelings associated with those acts. To learn to master your emotions, get a good therapist. Talk through how you feel on a weekly or bimonthly basis. Therapy will help you recognize your emotional patterns, and learn to respond wisely. If you have anger issues, consider taking anger management classes or joining an anger management group.

Fill a large saucepan or stockpot about 1/2 to 2/3 full with water. Heat the water on high until it reaches a boil. Add a dash of salt to the water, if desired. Adding salt to the water will draw out more flavor from the cauliflower. You could add it before the water reaches a boil, but doing so will cause the water to take a little more time to reach its boiling point. As a result, you may find it more beneficial to add it after the water has already begun boiling. Cook the cauliflower, uncovered, until it becomes tender. The cauliflower must be tender enough to pierce with a fork. Once the cauliflower is adequately cooked, pour the contents of the stockpot or saucepan through a colander to separate the water from the vegetable. Throw the drained cauliflower back into the still-hot saucepan. Let it sit, removed from the heat of the stove, with the lid on for 2 to 3 minutes. Place the ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl and heat, uncovered, for about 1 minute on full power.  If you are concerned about food splatters, lightly cover the top of the bowl with a paper towel before you microwave the coconut milk mixture. Doing so will prevent most splatters without interfering with the heating process. Note that you could also heat these ingredients in a small saucepan on the stove for the same amount of time. Meanwhile, transfer the cooked cauliflower to a food processor and puree on medium to high speed until whipped and smooth.  As you process the cauliflower, you may need to scrap down the sides of the food processor with a spatula periodically to ensure even blending. You could use a blender instead of a food processor, if necessary. Once the cauliflower reaches your desired consistency, add the warm coconut milk mixture to the mashed cauliflower and pulse for 10 seconds. The coconut milk mixture will make the cauliflower creamier, but it must be evenly blended into the cauliflower. Mashed cauliflower is best enjoyed while still warm. Top with butter, additional pepper, or chives, as desired.

TL;DR in English: Boil water in a large saucepan. Add the cauliflower and cook for 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the water. Combine and heat the garlic, coconut oil, coconut milk, salt, and pepper. Puree the cauliflower in a food processor. Add the coconut milk solution and pulse. Serve warm.

Padding will prevent your roof rack from damaging your kayak during your drive. You can use padding blocks that sit on top of the roof rack bars, or you can use padding that wraps around and Velcro over the bars. You can find roof rack padding online or at your local sporting goods store. Using straps designed specifically for tying down kayaks on cars will make tying down your kayak easier and safer. Straps with cam buckles will let you tighten your kayak to your roof rack without over tightening it and potentially damaging it. Look for kayak straps online or at your local sporting goods store. Bow and stern lines are straps or ropes used to secure the bow and stern of your kayak to your car. Bow and stern lines will prevent your kayak from lifting up and detaching from your car while you’re driving. Use bow and stern lines with a cam buckle or ratchet attached so you can easily tighten them into place. You can find bow and stern lines online or at your local sporting goods store.

TL;DR in English: Get padding for your roof rack. Get kayak straps with cam buckles. Buy bow and stern lines.

Flowers, like most plants, need good soil to grow up strong and healthy. Regardless of whether you are planting your flowers in a pot or a garden, good soil is a must. Find out what potting medium is the best for the flowers you are growing and then try to find the best location or potting mix for your flowers. Although flowers are typically easy to grow, they can’t be grown just anywhere. An area with too much direct sun or too much shade will be difficult for some flowers to grow in. Find out what type of light is best for the flowers you are planting.  If you have a specific plant in mind to grow, check the light preferences for that plant and choose your plot accordingly. You may end up wanting to choose an area with more or less sun than your original plot has. If you plan on planting several different types of flowers, choose ones with similar light/shade requirements so that they grow equally well in the same location. Even with the perfect soil, ideal location, and healthy flowers, if you don’t plant at the right time your garden will be ruined. Most flowers don’t do well in weather that is too cold or hot, so it is usually best to plant flowers in spring because it is between these periods. Although planting in the spring may seem obvious, there is an art to choosing the perfect time. With the exception of bulbs and wildflowers—plant these flowers in the fall—wait to plant flowers till at least two weeks after the most recent frost, and avoid planting until temperatures at night stay above freezing on a regular basis.  Use a farmer’s almanac to find the best time to plant flowers in your area. Because of differences in weather in different locations, flowers can be planted anywhere from February - July. Check the seed packets of the flowers you are planting to find the best planting time for your flowers.

TL;DR in English: Get the best soil. Select your location. Plant at the right time.

Shaping your child’s behavior in a positive way should be your first line of defense against bad behavior. If you see your child helping his/her sibling or cleaning up his or her toys, then encourage the behavior with praise. For example, you might see your child picking up his/her blocks and putting them away. In this case, you could say, “Wow, you’re doing a great job putting your toys away. Thank you!” While the actual concept behind time-out is not really going to sink in for a toddler, time-out at this age can be useful for separating the child from the situation he or she is in.  For instance, if you see your daughter throwing food at the cat, you’ll need to stop him/her immediately. Putting him/her in a safe time-out place like a high chair or crib will stop the behavior and also give you time to clean up or make corrections to the situation as needed. Do not send your child to his or her room. Doing so will create a negative association for the child by linking his/her bedroom with punishment. Children between the ages of 2 to 3 years old are curious and they may try to investigate things that they shouldn't. Telling them no may result in a tantrum, or they may just keep trying to do it! You may need to redirect them with another object or activity that is appropriate. For example, if the child keeps trying to open the kitchen cupboard door, then you could redirect them to a favorite toy. Do not give long explanations as to why a rule exists.  For instance, if you don’t want your child near the stairs, don’t say, “If you play near the stairs there is a chance you might tumble down them and hurt yourself.”  Instead, simply say, “Let’s not play near the stairs.” The reasoning behind your rule is, at this point, uninteresting to the child. When your child starts asking “why”, you’ll know your child is ready for longer answers.  Squat down to your child’s level when explaining a rule or situation to your child. Stay calm. Do not yell or scream at your child.  Keep in mind that your child does not have the...

TL;DR in English: Praise your child for good behavior. Utilize time-out. Redirect them if they are trying to do something you don't want them to do. Explain your rules with simple language.

Take steps to prevent gas spills in your vehicle. Leave gas cans in your vehicle for as short a time as possible. Keep gas cans away from sources of heat, even the sun, and spark. Protect children and loved ones from the harmful fumes of gasoline.

For the juice, you’ll need 3 celery stalks, ½ large cucumber, 1 medium green apple, and 1 medium pear. To fit them through the juicer easier, it helps to cut them. Use a sharp knife to cut the cucumber into quarters, the apple cut into eighths, and the pear into eighths. It usually isn’t necessary to cut the celery stalks before you add them to the juicer, but you can chop them into smaller pieces if you prefer. After you’ve cut up the produce, turn your juicer on. Process the celery stalks, cucumber, apple, and pear through the juicer according to the manufacturer’s instructions in succession so all of the juices are combined. While the juices will be combined in the juicer’s receptacle, it’s a good idea to stir the mixture with a spoon to ensure that they’re completely blended. When all of the juices are blended, pour the mixture into a glass and drink at room temperature. If you prefer, you can chill the juice in the fridge before drinking. The recipe makes 12 ounces (355 ml) so make sure that you have a large enough glass or cup.

TL;DR in English: Cut the cucumber, apple, and pear. Run all of the ingredients through your juicer. Serve the juice at room temperature or chilled.

Here it is: 22(x+3) + 9 - 5 = 32 Remember the order of operations: PEMDAS, which stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication/Division, and Addition/Subtraction. You can't resolve the parentheses first because x is in the parentheses, so you should start with the exponent, 22. 22 = 4 4(x+3) + 9 - 5 = 32 Just distribute the 4 into (x +3). Here's how: 4x + 12 + 9 - 5 = 32 Just add or subtract the remaining numbers. Here's how:  4x+21-5 = 32 4x+16 = 32 4x + 16 - 16 = 32 - 16 4x = 16 To do this, just divide both sides of the equation by 4 to find x. 4x/4 = x and 16/4 = 4, so x = 4.  4x/4 = 16/4 x = 4 Just plug x = 4 back into the original equation to make sure that it checks out. Here's how:  22(x+3)+ 9 - 5 = 32 22(4+3)+ 9 - 5 = 32 22(7) + 9 - 5 = 32 4(7) + 9 - 5 = 32 28 + 9 - 5 = 32 37 - 5 = 32 32 = 32

TL;DR in English: Write down the problem. Resolve the exponent. Do the multiplication. Do the addition and subtraction. Isolate the variable. Check your work.

For best results, the plow pulled by the tractor must be level from side to side and from front to back. The more plow blades on the rig, the more important levelness is.  To level the plow, take it to a concrete pad in your driveway or some other place that is perfectly flat. One of the two lower bars will be made for angling the plow from side to side. There are normally levers for the two hydraulic arms. The first lifts both arms up and down. The second is for the plow draft, or side-to-side angle. Adjust this lever until the plow is flat from one side to the other on the concrete (you can lay a carpenter's level on it to check). If there isn't a plow draft lever, there should at least be a manual crank on the one arm that you can turn to adjust the angle. Next, adjust the third upper arm so that the plow is level front to back. It may need further adjusting when you start plowing, as the plow should be level when it is sunk into the dirt and plowing. When you're using a mechanical rig, you can use hydraulic controls to change the depth of the plows as you work. You want the plow blades deep enough that they turn over the top layer of soil. However, the plow shouldn't be so deep that it is causes the tractor to labor hard. The exact way to adjust the plow's depth will vary from rig to rig.  There is normally a depth stop on the up and down lever for the plow's hydraulic arms. Set it so your plow stops at the proper depth each time you get to the end of your row and need to turn around and drop the plow again. If the tractor starts pulling to hard raise the plow up a little then let it back down while keeping going. If the ground is wet and you start spinning your wheels, pull the plow up fast Position your tractor with the plowing rig hitched behind it in the corner of your field. Start plowing your field in rows, using the hydraulic controls to lower the plows into the dirt. When you reach the end of a row, raise the plows out of the ground as you turn, then lower them again for the next row. When using a...

TL;DR in English: Level the plowing rig. Set the depth for your plow. Plow in even rows. Plow your end rows perpendicular to the rest.

Make sure all caps and vent caps are on correctly and tightened. Sit the can upright. Secure gas cans so they can not move. Make sure the area is not enclosed. Open windows to keep the space well ventilated. Do not leave gas cans in the trunk or inside the riding area of a vehicle.  Gas cans should not be placed on the seat beside people. Secure the cans as far from people's faces as possible. Children should never be left in an enclosed vehicle with a gas can.

Heat the butter, milk, and sugar in a saucepan until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Bring the butter mixture to a boil and cook it for 30 seconds. Remove the saucepan from the stove and stir in the chocolate chips. Let the mixture cool a little before pouring it over the brownies. Consider sprinkling chopped walnuts over the fudge topping. Allow the frosting to set before cutting and serving the brownies.

A designated stretching area and appropriate clothing will help you get the most out of the exercises.  Have a designated area for stretching that is free of all clutter. If this isn’t possible, clear away any obstructive material (e.g. breakable china ornaments, expensive objects) from the area you will be using.  Wear comfortable clothes (such as a tracksuit or bike shorts over a leotard or tight-fitting crossover).  Pull long hair back into a ponytail or a bun so it isn't distracting. If you have hard floors you may want to use a mat for floor stretches.

There’s no reason to be shy about going out to eat alone. In fact, it can be pretty nice to go wherever you want, order whatever you want, drink whatever you want, and have a whole table to yourself.  If you feel like being a bit social, sit at the bar to eat. People sitting at the bar tend to be friendlier and more open--and to have better stories.  Go to one of your favorite restaurants and order the meal you’ve been craving. Bring a book along if you’d like, or enjoy your meal while people-watching. If your house is usually full of people waiting to use the bathroom, take this time to spend as long as you want in the bathroom. Use all of your favorite bath and body products. Draw a bath and pour in some bubble bath or your favorite essential oil. Light candles, turn on music, and allow yourself to relax or have a leisurely shower. Make an appointment at a salon or walk in for a spur-of-the-moment treat. If you don’t want to spend money on a manicure, give yourself one at home. Don’t just paint your nails, give yourself the works: file your nails, soak them, and use several coats of polish. If you still have time and supplies left over, give yourself a pedicure, too. Having time all to yourself offers a great opportunity for sleep--take advantage!  Indulge in an afternoon nap, or go to bed as early as you want. If you’re alone in the morning, sleep in or wake up, make breakfast and go back to bed. Breakfast in bed!

TL;DR in English: Take yourself out for a meal. Take a long bath or shower. Get your nails done. Get some sleep.

The chorus is easy — you're just playing chords you've already learned in a steady pattern. Play this progression four times for the chorus. For reference, the chorus is the part of the song that starts, "because maybe/ you're gonna be the one that saves me..." This is only after the first chorus. In the recording, there's about a measure of rest after the last Em7 of the chorus. Then, as the song transitions into the third verse, there's about a measure of A7sus4 strumming that switches to Em7 strumming as soon as the verse starts. Listening to the recording will help a lot here. The timing with the rest beats can be a little challenging to get at first.

TL;DR in English: Play and repeat Cadd9-Em7-G-Em7. Transition into the next section with Asus4.

Pour the milk into a medium-sized saucepan, then add the sugar. Cut the butter into smaller cubes, and toss it in. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Stir the mixture often to prevent it from scorching or forming a skin on top. Keep stirring until the chocolate chips melt. If the chocolate chips are not melting at all, place the saucepan back onto the stove, and turn the heat on to low. Stir the mixture until the chocolate chips melt, then remove the saucepan from heat. The mixture will thicken a little as it cools. This will not only make it easier to spread, but also prevent it from soaking into the brownies. This is not completely necessary, but it will give your brownies some extra flavor and texture. How much chopped walnuts you add is entirely up to you, but you still want to be able to see the fudge frosting. The frosting will eventually harden up like fudge. Once the frosting is set and the brownies are completely coo, you can cut them into squares and serve them.

TL;DR in English:


Rip six pieces of tape no wider than your chest. Anchor your first piece of tape. Pull the tape across your chest. Place the second piece of tape over the first. Use tape to hold your breasts up. Secure the whole thing using the remaining tape.

Painter’s tape doesn’t leave any adhesive behind, so it’s the best choice for protecting the ceiling. Position it along the edge of the ceiling where it meets the wall. Make sure the tape is on the ceiling, not the wall. As you spread the tape out, press down on it to ensure it’s flat against the ceiling.  Try applying the tape in strips about 2 to 3 ft (0.61 to 0.91 m) long. Anything longer than that can be too difficult to work with. Any pockets of air underneath the tape could provide space for paint to seep into. Make sure the tape is as smooth and flat as you can make it! Protect yourself against paint fumes. If you don’t have any ventilation fans in the room, leave the windows and doors open. Also, keep other people out of the area until you’re finished. You don’t really need gloves or any other gear while painting, although they can be useful for avoiding messes. Using a standard painter’s tray will make the task more difficult since they tend to be bulky and difficult to maneuver up a latter. You could use a plastic bucket with a handle instead if you don’t have a suitable bowl. Fill it with primer that is compatible with the type of paint you plan on using.  Most indoor paints are water-based latex. There are also some oil-based paints, so make sure you get a compatible primer if you’re using one. If you are able to reach the ceiling without climbing very high, you could still put the paint in a tray or leave it in the canister. Start with an angled brush about 2 to 4 in (5.1 to 10.2 cm) long. Dip it into the primer so the bottom 1⁄2 to 1 in (1.3 to 2.5 cm) of the bristles are coated. The shape of the angled brush allows you to maneuver across the wall without getting paint on the ceiling. However, be careful to avoid adding too much primer to the wall at once.  Shake out the brush before using it. Tap it on the sides of the bowl. If it looks like it’s dripping or overloaded, brush some of the paint off on the bowl to prevent splattering. You could also try using a small roller. If you’re careful, it...

TL;DR in English: Cover the ceiling near the wall with painter's tape. Put on a dust mask and open nearby windows. Pour 1 to 2 cups (240 to 470 mL) of primer into a small bowl. Dip a small, angled brush into the primer.

Depending on the program and your area of specialty, courses might include economics, business, finance, accounting principles, research methods in social science, microeconomic theory, qualitative methods, data mining, managerial accounting, auditing and a doctoral seminar. Most PhD programs require two years of coursework, though some require three years. Most doctoral programs require that you successfully pass at least one comprehensive exam (or comp) that covers the content you learned throughout the course of your academic career in accounting.  There are both written and oral comps, and you might need to take one of each. In many cases, the PhD program will provide you with study guidelines for the exam and will tailor the comp questions to your specific area of specialty. To prepare for the comps, write a brief (one page) summary of each academic article you read during your seminars and classes.  Summarize the main argument or question the author is tackling, as well as his or her findings and conclusion. When getting your PhD, you’ll need to write a dissertation, a long, book-like treatise on a particular problem or issue in modern accounting.  Your dissertation should be focused, specific, and thorough.  Your academic advisor -- a member of the university’s accounting faculty -- will help you focus the dissertation question or questions, and point you in the direction of useful research.  You may have suggested the topic you want to work on in your initial application to the university.  Don’t feel obligated to stick to that exact topic, since other issues or problems in accounting might spark your interest as you progress in your program.  However, ensure that whatever topic you select is one that you’ll be able to receive guidance on from your academic advisor. Current trends in accounting encourage PhD students to pursue positivist (non-theoretical) research on subjects relating to the influence of accounting practices on global markets. After you’ve settled on a research topic, you’ll need to...

TL;DR in English: Enroll in and complete the required courses. Meet exam requirements. Develop your dissertation topic. Craft a research plan. Conduct your research. Take rigorous notes. Write your dissertation.

A tick must bite a person or pet to transmit disease, so by checking yourself constantly during your camping trip, the chances of contracting a tick disease are significantly reduced. When you check for ticks make sure to look in these places:  Under arms and on the backs of knees Inside your belly button Around your waist Between your legs In and around your ears A hand-held or full-body mirror can make checking for ticks easier. Although it can be difficult while camping, taking a shower or bathing will help you locate and remove any unattached ticks. This is a good time to perform a tick check. To kill ticks that might be on your clothes, dry clothing as soon as you come home from your camping trip.  Dry the clothes on high heat for 10-15 minutes.  Do this before washing the clothes, since research has shown ticks are not killed by washing (even in hot water). Don’t leave your clothing sitting in a pile or stick it in a hamper. To remove ticks that aren't attached, place duct tape over them and pull them off the skin or clothing with the tape. Then, fold the tape over itself and toss it in the trash.  Bring a roll of duct tape on your trip so you are prepared. A lint roller also works well for removing unattached ticks. If the tick has already attached itself to your skin, use tweezers to grab its body and pull it directly up and away.  Tweezers with pointed ends work best so you can grab and hold on to the tick more easily. If the tweezers are not pointed, you can tear the tick during removal, which increases the risk of spreading disease. Never twist the tick or try to coax it off using heat or solvents. Follow up by swabbing the area with rubbing alcohol to disinfect. You can also apply an antibiotic cream or ointment to the site of the tick bite. If you are concerned about the risks of tick bites or live in an area where tick-borne diseases are common, it’s a good idea to place the tick you remove in a plastic bag so you can identify the type of tick and send it in for disease testing.  Note the date...

TL;DR in English: Check yourself and your animals/companions for ticks every 2 to 3 hours. Shower as soon as you can. Run your clothes through the dryer as soon as you return home. Remove any ticks you find on your clothing. Extract attached ticks. Send the tick for testing.

Regardless of what point you are in a relationship, or what relationship you have with a person, everyone wants to feel valued. One of the clearest ways to show someone that you love them is to actively listen to what they have to say. Put away any distractions, make eye contact with the other person, and show that you care. You should talk back when it is your turn to talk, but don't interrupt the person. Even if days are super busy, going to bed with your partner can allow you at least a little intimate time together each night. It allows the two of you to have pillow talk to cuddle up before going to sleep (or while sleeping even). Making an effort to wrap up your evening and go to bed with your partner is a great way to say that you love them. While you may be on a different schedule than your partner, it speaks volumes if the two of you wake up together. Having time for a cup of coffee together (or even better a full breakfast) before the day starts can really show that you are going the extra mile to say “I love you.” Even if one of you goes back to sleep after the other leaves or starts working, that is fine. Just making the effort to spend those few moments together is what is important. Since every relationship and every person is different, you and your partner may or may not be in the same career field or enjoy all of the same things in your free time. That being said, it is important that you support each other by showing up to big events. This might be going as a date to your partner's business meeting or dinner, or something going to watch them play in a tennis match. What is important here is that you show up to support your partner both at home and in public. It is also a nice gesture to be supportive on days that aren't big events. For example, you might surprise your partner by stopping in at the office with their favorite lunch one day. Just be careful not to do this everyday or take it to an overbearing extreme.

TL;DR in English: Listen to your partner. Go to bed together. Wake up together. Make time to support their endeavours.

In order to tape your breasts in this fashion, you are going to be creating a shape similar to a bra. You’ll need four pieces of tape for the base and two pieces as straps to help give you some lift. This is a great option for extra support and for an open back top. Also, it sits lower than the previous method if you have a lower top. Take your tape and stick it on the bottom corner of your left breast. It should be anchored at the top of your ribs. Anchor it well, by sticking it down with both hands. Hold this part of the tape firmly with your left hand. Once the tape is secured, use you left hand to pull your right breast toward the left one. Once you find a good amount of cleavage, finish laying your first piece of tape across your right breast. Grab your second piece of tape and anchor it on the bottom of your right breast. Holding your breasts together with the desired cleavage, pull this piece of tape across and tape it beneath your original piece of tape. Make sure to pull tightly to keep your desired amount of cleavage. Now you’re going to create straps. These straps, however, will reach just below your collarbone, rather than over your shoulder. Take a piece of tape and anchor it below your left breast. Pulling upwards, lay your tape from here to your collarbone. Do the same on the right side. This adds lift and makes your breasts look bigger. Use you final pieces of tape to secure everything. Make sure you tape over your straps, and close any gaps in the tape. Pull them tightly to give added support.

It is very difficult for a constructive dialogue to take place if there is no common ground of understanding between the two parties.  Before engaging in a conversation with a religious person, educate yourself on the basics of their beliefs.  Especially if you are very unfamiliar with the person’s religion, search online, read articles, consult books, and consider taking a look at the faith’s sacred text(s).  This will help you better understand where the other person is coming from, and will help you to generate questions about their faith.  It is completely fair for you to expect the same of the other person.  Offer to recommend some key atheist works that speak to your point of view, and ask the person to consult them to facilitate your discussion.  You can always delay and resume the conversation at another time. Before you can explain to others what it means to be an atheist, you need to be able to explain it to yourself. You don’t have to use a textbook definition of atheism — there is no single “atheist” view, just as there is no single “Christian” or “Hindu” view. Come up with a definition that works for you.  Before you begin the conversation, ask if the person understands what an atheist is. You may want to say, “I’m looking forward to talking with you about atheism. Before we start, why don’t you tell me what you know about it.” If they don’t know anything about atheism, or assume that it means you believe in nothing or are satanic in some way, don’t criticize them for it. Instead, quickly provide them with some basic information about atheism. You can start the conversation by saying, “Why don’t I tell you a little bit more about atheism, so you know where I’m coming from.” If necessary, provide some source recommendations for the other person to consult and request that you resume the conversation at another time. Make an effort to understand the other point of view by listening and asking questions. This will show that you are engaged in the discussion.  If you don’t have specific questions,...

TL;DR in English: Do your homework. Define what atheism means to you. Ask questions and listen to answers with curiosity and respect. Avoid taking cheap shots. Be open to learning something new.

There are currently quite a few air quality monitors on the market that can effectively detect (and log over time) the quality of air inside your home. These devices typically check PM2.5 levels (tiny dust particles and other allergens in the air that you inhale), VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds – like chemical pollutants), temperature, and humidity (for mold).  Some of the most reliable air quality monitors on the market are the Foobot, Awair, Speck, and Air Mentor 6 in 1. These devices typically cost between $150-250 US. You can typically tell if there is a mold infestation in your home by using your eyes and your nose. If you smell a musty odor coming from certain parts of your home, and cleaning doesn't remove the smell, you might want to consider hiring a professional for a mold test. You should also look around for visible signs of mold – like growing black spots, water spots, or particularly damp areas in your home. Carbon monoxide is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that can be a byproduct of many appliances found in your home (like stoves, fireplaces, furnaces, hot water heaters, and grills). It can be deadly if inhaled, so it's important to always have carbon monoxide detectors installed on every floor of your home to alert you if there are high levels of CO in your home.   Place the carbon monoxide detectors close to your bedrooms so that you'll be more likely to hear the alarm when you are sleeping. Make sure you change the detector batteries regularly. A good rule of thumb is to change the batteries once every 6 months or so, though the duration will vary depending on the model. Radon is a radioactive gas that occurs naturally as uranium breaks down. It can be found in the soil and in well water, and sometimes it can infiltrate people's homes. The only way to prevent radon contamination is to test for it. You can purchase at-home radon tests from most home improvement stores.  Most tests involve a charcoal reading that is done by leaving the sensor material in your home, then collecting it...

TL;DR in English: Purchase an air quality monitor. Check for signs and symptoms of mold. Install carbon monoxide detectors on every floor of your home. Perform an at-home radon test. Use an air purifier. Change the air filters every few months.

You should see your internet connection next to the clock in the taskbar, which is usually at the bottom of the screen. Depending on the type of connection, the icon will either be a globe (sometimes with a "caution" sign over it) or several curved lines. If you don't see a network connection icon, click the up-arrow left of the clock to expand additional icons. It's at the bottom-left corner of the menu at the bottom of the screen. This disables all wireless connections.  If you just want to disconnect from the network you're connected to now, click Disconnect on that network. Be aware that depending on your settings, your PC may try reconnecting to the network (or other open networks) immediately. To re-enable the adapter, click your network icon again in the taskbar, then click the Wi-Fi button again. Depending on your settings, you may need to reconnect to your wireless network manually by clicking its name.

TL;DR in English: Click your internet connection  in the taskbar. Click the Wi-Fi  icon.

When you strain your beef, you don’t want to pour the grease down the drain, as this can clog your pipes. Instead, place a large plastic or metal bowl on your countertop or inside of your sink. This way, you can catch the liquid inside the bowl, rather than pouring it down your drain. Let the grease liquid come to room temperature, and pour it from the bowl into a glass jar or tin can. Then, wait for the liquid to solidify in the container before you throw it away. This is a safe way to dispose of the grease without clogging your drains.

TL;DR in English:


Massage your scalp daily to improve your circulation. Try an oil massage to promote hair growth. Use therapeutic hair masks to moisturize and strengthen your hair. Use essential oils in combination with other hair products. Avoid using shampoo that contains sulfates and harsh ingredients.

Put petroleum jelly or lip balm on your lips to protect them from hot or cold conditions. Extreme weather can harm your lips and leave them chapped and dry, so be sure to give your lips a protective coating so they don't get red and chapped.  Petroleum jelly is a cheap and effective product that can moisturize your lips and prevent them from getting chapped. If you want some color on your lips, try a tinted lip balm or lip gloss. You can also put on lipstick over petroleum jelly if you want color and protection. Exposure to the sun can do a lot of damage to the surface of your lips. Look for a lip balm or chapstick that contains sunscreen and apply it daily before exposing your lips to the sun. Pick a lip balm or chapstick that has an SPF rating of 30 or higher. If your lips are tender or swollen, it could be caused by products you are putting on them. Keep track of your symptoms and stop using any products that may be irritating your lips. For example, many lip plumping products can be used safely but there is a chance that they will irritate your lips. If the product you are using is irritating or hard on the surface of your lips, stop using it. If you want to exfoliate your lips because they are peeling or coarse, you should only do it lightly and no more than once a week. While you can use beauty products designed for gentle exfoliation, you can also just use a soft toothbrush to gently rub the surface.  After exfoliating, apply a moisturizer to replenish your lips. Get a separate toothbrush to brush your lips. But make sure that it has got soft bristles.

TL;DR in English: Use moisturizing products on your lips. Apply sunscreen to your lips daily. Discontinue using products that irritate your lips. Exfoliate your lips lightly, if necessary.

One way to deal with an anonymous letter is to ignore it. Some people do not believe that criticism passed through an anonymous platform is worth any attention. However, notice the tone of the letter. While it is sensible to ignore a hateful letter, it is possible that someone is attempting to give you important information they otherwise feel unable to give you face to face.  Getting upset by the contents of an anonymous letter gives the author power. If you have received anonymous hate, don't post about it on social media and try to call them out. Don't address the office, or send e-mails to people you know accusing them of sending you anonymous letters. This validates the anonymous sender because they realize they got to you. It may also cause the author to send you more messages if they know they have gotten to you. Instead of keeping the letter, get rid of it. Throw it away, shred it, tear it up, burn it - whatever you feel you need to do. If you receive an anonymous e-mail or social media message, delete it. Holding on to the letter keeps it around, giving it power over your mind. If you toss it out, you also toss it out of your mind. If the letter contains false or potentially libellous or defamatory information, you could consider destroying the letter by shredding, tearing, or burning. However, it may be advisable to keep the letter in case you wish to show it to a lawyer or the authorities as evidence of threats or harassment. Bear in mind, however, that information would only be defamatory if it is not true. Take some time to examine what the letter said. Ask yourself: Why would someone send this to me? For example, people who find out about an affair often want to let the betrayed partner know but are worried about 'shooting the messenger. ' If you receive a letter like this, try not to dwell on who wrote the letter but look at the details provided and think about whether the information could be true.  If the letter contains criticism of your personality, appearance, or work habits, confront...

TL;DR in English: Ignore the letter. Dispose of the letter. Ponder the contents of the letter. Try to figure out who sent the letter. Determine the seriousness of the letter. Confront the problem.

Once a member of your fishing party has caught a tuna on the line, slow the speed of the fishing boat and don’t make any unnecessary turns. This will make it easier for the angler to reel in the tuna. If the boat accelerates or makes sharp turns, the tuna may break the line or slip the hook. Under these conditions, the tuna should swim up alongside the boat and present itself for gaffing. If you feel impatient and strike too early, you’ll likely miss the fish altogether and have to start the gaffing process over again. Stay patient: allow the person holding the fishing rod to work the fish in close to the boat. Don’t strike with the gaff until the tuna is alongside the boat.  If you’re standing in the stern of a fishing boat, wait to gaff at least until the tuna is flush with the back wall of the boat. New gaffers make a common mistake by attempting to gaff a tuna too early, when it’s still trailing behind the boat. Since the gaff hook is curved, you can’t drive it straight into the tuna. Do not gaff a tuna from its near side (close to the wall of the boat). Instead, reach the gaff over the tuna’s head and body, and point the hook back towards yourself to impale the fish. This will also benefit you by decreasing the chance that you’ll cut the fishing line. If you reach in front of the fish’s head and over the fishing line, you risk slicing the line with the sharp point of the gaff.

TL;DR in English: Keep the boat heading straight, at a low speed. Wait for the tuna to come alongside the boat. Reach the gaff over the tuna.

Just because your friend has given her approval, that probably doesn’t mean she wants to see you holding hands or kissing all the time. Respect her enough to keep your PDA and pet names to a minimum in her presence. If you want to call your boyfriend Hot Lips and sit on his lap in private, that’s your prerogative. Your friend doesn’t need to see that though. On that note, your friends who never had a crush on him probably don’t want to see that either, so keep the PDA to a minimum. Don’t neglect your friend in order to spend all your time with this boy. A new relationship can be exciting, and it’s easy to want to spend all your time with your crush; however, you need to show your friend that you value your friendship and aren’t going anywhere. If your friend tries to pull away because of hurt feelings, give her space but let her know that you cherish your friendship. You “won” the guy, so be loving and gracious with your friend. ” If your new boyfriend sends you a dozen roses and writes you a sonnet, it’s only natural to want to spill all the details to your friend; however, you should just wait. Until she’s solidly moved on, just bite your tongue when it comes to that kind of conversation. It will only seem like you’re rubbing her face in your good fortune, and it could make her resentful. Enjoy your relationship privately, and separate it from your friendship — at least for awhile.

TL;DR in English: Be discreet with your actions. Nurture your friendship. Wait until she’s moved on to “gush.

Scalp massage promotes good circulation around your hair follicles, creating the right environment for hair growth. Use the tips of your fingers to gently massage your scalp in a circular motion. Take your time and massage every part of your scalp so that you stimulate blood flow to all the areas where you want to new hair to grow in.  Make massage a habit by doing it every time you wash your hair in the shower. Brush your hair daily with a soft or looped-bristle brush for a gentle scalp massage. This is especially effective if you have long hair. Getting a professional head massage could be educational, since you'll learn the best way to massage your scalp. Adding oil to the equation aids circulation even more than a standard head massage. The oil helps to unclog hair follicles and allow new growth to come in. Once or twice a week, plan to use oil to massage your head. It's easiest to do it in the shower, then rinse away the oil when you're finished. Here are a few popular oils you can try:  Argan oil. Hand-extracted from the Argan tree, this oil contains lots of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and fatty acids that are great for restoring moisture and shine to your hair. Jojoba oil. It's very similar in texture to sebum, the natural oil produced by your scalp that lubricates your hair and keeps it healthy. Almond oil. This is traditionally used in India to foster healthy hair growth. A good hair mask performs the dual duty of keeping your hair moisturized and healthy while also stimulating growth. Household goods like honey, egg whites, avocados, aloe and apple cider vinegar are all quite beneficial to hair. Apply a mask for 15 minutes, making sure to cover your scalp as well, then shampoo your hair as normal. Make sure you do not use a shampoo with added sulfate. Try the following masks:  For extra dry hair, combine equal parts honey, egg white, and argan oil. For normal hair, combine equal parts honey, aloe, and olive oil. For oily hair, combine equal parts honey, apple cider vinegar, and castor oil....

If your duvet has a cover, remove it and wash it separately. Usually the cover can be washed and dried in a regular capacity washer and dryer. Be sure to check the instructions on your duvet cover's tag. Do not wash your duvet with the cover still on it. Before you decide to wash your duvet, be sure that it doesn’t require dry cleaning. Generally, if your duvet is made of cotton or a cotton blend, it can be machine washed. However, to ensure you don’t accidentally ruin it, read the instructions on your duvet’s label. Your duvet might not have a tag on it that contains washing instructions, but if it does, you will want to follow the manufacturer’s directions for washing and drying your duvet.  The picture of a tub or bucket tells you whether or not the article can be washed. The number in the tub is the maximum water temperature. A hand in the tub means the item must be hand-washed only.  A square with a circle inside it represents the dryer. Dots inside this symbol corresponds to the temperature of the dryer. Fewer dots means lower temperatures, and more dots or bigger dots mean higher heat may be used. An “X” through the square means you must line dry the item. Odds are that your personal washing machine will not have sufficient space to adequately wash your duvet. You will want to wash it in the largest possible washing machine, so you’ll need to make a trip to your local laundromat. Center agitators can pull threads on your duvet or even tear it, so be sure you choose a large front loading washer for your duvet.

TL;DR in English: Remove your duvet cover. Ensure that your duvet is machine washable. Read the washing instructions label on your duvet. Get coins for the laundromat.

Once your pastry bag is ready, you can pipe the icing on as an accent for the cookies. You can use it simply to outline the shape of the cookie, or to add fine details, such as a face for a gingerbread man cookie. You can also use the icing to pipe patterns on the cookies, such as an all-over polka dot or stripe design. Royal icing works extremely well as a glue to hold decorative candies and other embellishments on the cookies. Just add a dot of the frosting onto the cookie where you want to place the decoration and press the candy into place. When the icing dries, it won’t move.  You can use candies specifically meant for cookies decorating, such as sugar pearls or dragees, or you can use regular candies, such as M&M’s. Allow the icing to dry completely before you place the decorated cookies in storage containers. If you want an easy way to decorate the cookies, use a knife to spread the icing over the entire cookie. While the icing is still wet, sprinkle colored sugar over it for a colorful, sparkling look. You can use a single colored sugar for the entire cookie, or use a piece of paper towel or a paper plate to block off sections of the cookie as you sprinkle to use multiple colors for a striped effect.

TL;DR in English: Pipe some lines on cookies with icing. Use icing to serve as glue for candies. Spread icing across the entire surface.

Add the milk and the cream to a large, nonreactive pot and warm over a low heat until the temperature reaches 70°F (~21°C).  Do not allow the milk and cream to boil. Use an instant read thermometer to get an exact temperature read. Add the buttermilk to the milk and cream mixture and stir to combine. Then add the veal rennet. Cover the pot with a lid and leave the cream cheese mixture overnight, at room temperature. The next day, the mixture will have set. Sprinkle the salt all over the surface of the set mixture. Using a large wire whisk, cut the gelled cream cheese mixture into small curds. Line a large colander with a butter muslin cloth. Place the colander in a bowl large enough to hold the whey. Gently pour the cream cheese mixture into the colander and let it drain for about 30 minutes. Gather the corners of the muslin cloth and tie them together with a rubber band to form a bag. Empty out the whey that has collected in the bowl. Place the cloth bag containing the cheese back in the colander, and put the colander back in the bowl. Put the whole thing in the refrigerator and let the curds continue to drain overnight. Use immediately or store in a plastic container in the fridge for up to two weeks.

TL;DR in English: Heat the milk and cream. Stir in the buttermilk and rennet. Leave overnight. Add the salt. Cut into curds. Drain the mixture. Remove the whey. Refrigerate. The cream cheese is ready to use the next day.

When you’re working up the nerve to ask him out, you’re probably going to be very nervous. That’s perfectly natural, but you don’t want him to see how anxious you are!  Take deep breaths to slow down your heart rate and clear your mind right before you ask him.  Clench and relax the muscles in your face to release tension in your muscles.  Repeat positive phrases to yourself. Visualize your best-case-scenario: “He’s going to say yes. He’s going to say yes. He’s going to say yes.” Asking a boy out can be nerve-racking, so psych yourself up for the big moment ahead of time. Take deep, calming breaths to slow down your heart rate. Throw back your shoulders, lift your chin, and speak in a clear, confident voice when you ask him out.  If you look like a nervous wreck when you ask him out, he might think the date will be just as awkward. By acting confident and natural, you let him know that the date will be comfortable and fun. What you say with your body often speaks more loudly than your words. Make sure your body is sending comforting, relaxing messages so he looks forward to going on a date with you. You don't want him to worry about it being awkward!  Relax your shoulders and straighten your back. Lean in toward him when you're speaking. Don't cross your arms over your chest. Crossed arms suggest you're closed off, and you want to be open in this moment. Smile a lot and keep eye contact with him. Even if you chat or text every day, don’t hide behind a computer or phone when you want to ask him out. Just as it’s easier for you to talk to him when you’re not face-to-face, it might be easier for him to say “no” from behind the comfort of a screen. Asking him out in person shows how confident you are, which can be very attractive. It's an important conversation — you want to make sure you're there in person for it! ” Sometimes, it can be hard to tell if a boy likes you as a friend or as a potential girlfriend. To avoid mixed messages, be clear that you want to go on a date with him, not just "hang out." Use...

If you are taking your gas somewhere for disposal, then you’ll need to transport it in an airtight container for safety. Most plastic or metal gasoline cans, especially the 5-gallon models, are designed for the safe, quick transport of gas. Funnel your old gas into these containers and seal them tightly before moving them. To keep your gas containers from tipping over while you are driving, set them inside a large plastic tub or bin. This will keep your car clean and will lessen the possibility of getting any gas on your skin as well. Wash out the bin with water when you’ve disposed of the containers. When you arrive at a disposal facility, they might need to take your containers along with the gas. This means that you’ll be out the cost of the containers, but you’ll save on a possible fine. Or, they may have a large tank that you can pour your gasoline into, allowing you to keep your cans.

Your hair follicles need vitamins, nutrients, and proteins to function properly and build strong hairs. These are delivered through the blood stream, and massaging your eyebrows can stimulate circulation, ensuring your cells get the nourishment they need. Gently massage your eyebrows using the tips of your fingers. Make circular motions along the length of your brow bone. Your blood system delivers nutrients to the cells in your hair follicles, but it's up to you to provide your body with those nutrients. A healthy, balanced diet will keep your hair strong, glossy, and can prevent some types of hair loss.  Eat proteins like nuts, chicken, turkey Greek yogurt, and eggs to prevent hair growth from stalling or entering a resting state. Your hair is made from proteins, and can't produce new hair if you aren't providing your body with enough protein.  The B vitamin biotin can be found in eggs, almonds, wheat bran, salmon, and avocados. Biotin enhances hair growth and can also make hair grow faster.  Dark greens like spinach, kale, and chard contain vitamins A and C. Vitamin deficiencies can cause your hair to fall out. If you're feeling impatient, you can use makeup to make your brows look fuller or fill in any bald patches. Use a sharp eyebrow pencil and draw "hairs" with light, feathered strokes. Concentrate on holes and sparse areas. Follow this up with a dusting of brow powder, which clings to your existing hair, and your eyebrows will look fuller.  Never stray too far from your natural eyebrow color. If you are a brunette or a redhead, look for a pencil that is one shade lighter than your hair.  If you are a blonde, look for a pencil that is one shade darker than your hair color.

TL;DR in English: Massage your eyebrows to improve circulation. Eat a protein and vitamin-rich diet to help your hair grow. Fake it by using an eyebrow pencil and powder.

Don't immediately spank your child if you see them doing something you dislike. Talk to them first, and try a nonviolent method of discipline if needed. If you decide to spank a child, it should only be as a last resort, after other methods have failed. Conditional spanking (a mild spanking after a 2-to-6-year-old child has defied a less extreme form of discipline) is less risky than spanking as a first resort, according to some studies. The child may not have realized that what they did was wrong, or maybe you misunderstood what happened. Talking can help clarify the situation: either helping the child realize why their decision was a bad one or helping you realize that your child didn't misbehave after all.  If you're too upset to be calm, say "I'm so upset, I need a break to calm down." Walk out of the room and take some deep breaths. Then come back. Older children are able to self-reflect and realize why something is wrong. Ask them how they think other people feel about what they did, or what their actions caused. You can use nonviolent communication and "I" phrasing for scripts like "When you ____, I feel ____." For example:   "How do you think your sister will feel about you breaking her toy?" "When I didn't see you in the store, I felt really scared. I need you to stay close by so I know you're safe and not lost." "How do you think Dad felt when he had to clean poop out of the bathtub?" Not every learning opportunity needs to involve punishment.   For example, if your child resolves to do things differently after a conversation, then there's no need to punish them: they learned on their own. Sometimes, it's you who needs the learning opportunity. Perhaps you expected too much of your child, or put them in a stressful situation that they weren't able to handle calmly. Kids don't always have the emotional tools to handle stress in a mature way. Try letting it go this time, and keeping your child's limits closer in mind next time. Firmly and patiently tell them what needs to happen. Spanking should never...

TL;DR in English: Start small. Ask the child calmly why they did what they did. Talk to the child about the consequences of their actions. Consider whether the child needs to be punished at all. Look at non-physical consequences if needed. Give yourself a time out if you get angry with your child. Help a child who is struggling to do what you ask. Talk to a child about how to behave better next time. Praise the child for good behavior. Be a good role model.

You will need to measure half the circumference of the wearer's head, the height of the wearer's face from the nose up, and the distance between the nose and the eyes. Record the measurements to create a custom template for your mask.  Use a tape measure to measure the distance between the front of one ear to the front of the other, wrapping the tape measure around the front of the face. Measure the distance from the bottom of the nose to the top of the forehead. Measure the distance between the bottom of the nose and the bottom of the eyes, as well as the dimensions of the eyes themselves. This can be a bit tricky, but armed with your measurements, you can create a shape custom-fit to the wearer's face. Draw a horizontal line that matches the width of the wearer's face. Find the midpoint of the line and make a mark 1 inch below the line. Use a ruler to draw a line from the right-hand end of the line to this point. Draw a second line from the left-hand end of the line to this point Draw two downward-angled lines from the edges of the original line. The lines should meet together in a slight peak about 1 inch below the center of the original line. The ears will curve upward from the ends of the original horizontal line.  Draw two curved vertical lines from the edge of the original line. These lines should equal the height measurement from the nose to the forehead taken earlier plus an additional 3 inches (7.6 cm). Draw another curved line on the end of each "side" line. The lines should come inward, forming curved triangles, and the base of each triangle should be about 2 inches (5 cm) wide. These triangles form the ears of the mask. Draw a line connecting the two top triangles across the top of the mask. Sketch out two almond-shape eyes holes.  The position of the bottom of the eye holes should roughly match the distance between the wearer's nose and the bottom of the wearer's eyes. Measure from the center of the original horizontal line to the bottom edge of the inner portion of the eye. The eye holes...

TL;DR in English: Measure your face. Sketch the mask outline on plain paper. Draw the part of the mask that will cover the nose. Sketch the outline of the ears and top of the mask. Draw eye holes. Cut everything out. Trace the shape onto black craft foam. Cut the mask out. Punch two small holes along the side of the mask. Attach elastic thread to the holes.

Once you have made a decision to go to rehab, let your loved ones know that you're leaving. By doing this you'll be able to share your news before people you care about hear it through the grapevine first. It’s up to you to decide to tell them, or simply keep your privacy and explain that you'll be away for a while. Alerting others in advance if you'll need help watching your home or keeping up with your finances. Asking for help is a great way to keep people you care about involved in your big change, as they won't necessarily be present throughout your rehabilitation. Get everything ready for your absence by making sure that your finances and bills will be kept up to date. This includes utilities, rent, and loans. If necessary, alert your landlord or neighbors that you will be away for an extended time. Also, find trustworthy care or boarding for any pets and plants that you have. When you have made a decision on the facility you want to go to, contact the center and make arrangements for getting your treatment underway. Remember to discuss the date of arrival, rules about what you may or may not bring with you, and any remaining questions you might have about the duration of your stay, finances, and visitation once you’re there. Find out if you can have visitors and how often the center permits its residents to contact their loved ones. Some centers will prefer that you do not contact people in your life during part or all of your initial stay so that you can be totally focused on the rehab program. Look within yourself and honestly ask why it is that you're going to rehab. Make sure that you don't waste your time and money by checking into a rehab program without being fully committed to recovery and ongoing sobriety. Outline on paper or mentally rehearse your goals for yourself. What do you hope to gain from treatment? Is there anything that you are not willing to do for your recovery?  Don't get too worried if you feel very anxious and overwhelmed. These feelings are to be expected. Try to acknowledge...

TL;DR in English: Notify friends and family. Tie up any loose ends at home. Communicate your intent to a rehab center. Accept the situation. Invite change.

If you don't want to go through an FFL dealer, you can also buy a gun from a private individual. You may find someone with a gun for sale on the internet, through advertisements at a shooting range, or at a gun show. Under Ohio law, any private resident can sell a gun to any other private resident. Private sellers and unlicensed dealers in Ohio aren't required to conduct background checks. However, they must make sure that you're at least 18 (21 if you're buying a handgun) and a resident of Ohio.  If you're not from Ohio, the private seller cannot complete the sale themselves. They can take your money, but they'll have to send the gun to an FFL dealer in your state. Ohio doesn't have any specific laws relating to gun shows. The  rules in effect for a gun show depend on the rules of the organizer of the show and whether you buy from an FFL dealer or a private individual. Because private sales are relatively unregulated, it's up to you to inspect the gun and make sure it's in good working order and seems legitimate. If the serial number has been scratched through, that may be a sign that the gun has been used or transferred illegally. If you're an Ohio resident, once you buy the gun, you're free to take it home. There are no additional requirements for private sales and no record needs to be made of the transaction. You aren't required to register the gun with law enforcement or any other government agency. If you're not an Ohio resident, you and the seller must fill out the Firearm Transaction Report to transfer the gun to an FFL near where you live. That FFL will complete the transfer. If your state has any additional requirements, such as completing a background check, you must fulfill those requirements before taking possession of your gun. The FFL in your state will inform you of those requirements. You can also look them up yourself by doing an online search for "interstate gun transfer" with the name of your state.

The most powerful punches aren't actually the fastest ones. Your arm can move more quickly than the rest of your body, so waiting for your body to catch up to a punch slows the punch down. Even though a powerful punch is a slower one, there will be moments when you have just enough time to execute a slow but extremely forceful punch. It's worth practicing punching at a slower speed so you can feel the full power that comes when you give your body time to get behind your fist.  Try punching at half speed when you're training. Force yourself to slow down and focus on using your leg muscles and torso to maximize your power. Remember where that power came from when you speed things up. While you'd never punch at half speed during a match, you can focus on using your legs and torso to generate as much power as possible. Speed is as important as power, since if you're too slow your opponent will have time to throw a lot more punches. Train with a speed bag and see how fast your arms can fly. Be sure to use the proper form and remember to keep your thumb tucked away from your knuckles as you punch.  The biggest part of the speed bag, the belly, should be hung at the same height as your nose. Hanging it too high will cause you to use improper form when you're training.  Focus on keeping the bag constantly in motion and always under your control. Start slow, alternating punching with your right and left arm. As you gain control, speed up your punching. Doing some amount of strength training is a good way to keep your body in the best shape possible, but strength training alone doesn't make you a stronger or quicker boxer. You need to train your muscles to punch by punching, not lifting weights. That said, it's a good idea to have a strength training routine that strengthens your legs and core for maximum power.  Try  deadlifts to build overall body strength in your legs, torso and arms.   Squats,  push ups, and pull ups are good exercises for building strength that translates well to better punches. The best cardio...

TL;DR in English: Practice punching slow. Practice with a speed bag. Keep your strength training in check. Do cardio exercises. Try isometric training.

If your hair growth is associated with a medical condition such as hirsutism or polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), you may be able to take birth control to help reduce hair growth. Since these two conditions produce an overabundance of androgens, birth control is used to decrease the production of these in the body. The decrease in androgens will slow down hair growth and make it finer and softer than before. Consult your doctor about hair growth issues associated with these conditions. If you don't have one of these conditions, you should not take birth control to reduce hair growth unless it is prescribed by your primary care physician. Electrolysis is a procedure where a small needle in placed into a hair follicle and it is zapped with an electrical current. This damages the hair at the follicle level, which stops hair growth in the area. These treatments are typically suited for small areas, though larger areas can be treated over multiple treatments. Look for a qualified electrologist in your area, but be aware. These treatments are expensive.  Electrolysis is the only permanent form of hair removal, but it does cause some pain. If you have PCOS or hirsutism, these treatments will help at first, but the body hair will eventually come back. Laser hair removal is faster and less painful than electrolysis, but your hair may grow back. Typically, you would need four to six treatments which are spaced about four to six weeks apart to gain satisfactory hair removal. During this process, body hair production is reduced. Dermatologists and skin specialists perform these treatments, but they are expensive. It is possible to permanently stop hair growth in certain areas with laser hair removal, although in some cases, the hair may still grow back. There are some new medicated, prescription creams that help reduce hair growth. These products, such Vaniqa, help reduce the production of body hair in women along the face and neck. It blocks the production of a natural enzyme in the skin that causes hair to grow. This...

TL;DR in English: Take birth control. Get electrolysis. Have laser hair removal. Try a medicated cream.

Make sure all doors to the outside stay shut when they’re not being used. Geckos love to explore, and can sneak in in an instant when you’re not looking. The same goes for windows, as well—since geckos are adept at scaling walls, it’s easy for them to gain entry to places that are inaccessible to most pests. If you often leave your door standing open on warm days, install a screen door to serve as a barricade. Go around and look for places where geckos and other critters might be getting in, like ventilation ducts, loose screens, and openings that have formed as a result of the house settling. Patch these areas with wire mesh or caulking. Use weather stripping to cover small cracks and crevices.  A qualified pest control specialist will be able to help you identify possible access points that you might have otherwise missed. Exclusion is one of the best methods for dealing with a lizard problem, as it’s more or less permanent and doesn’t require you to disperse toxic chemicals around your home. Cats are skilled predators that can snatch up lightning-quick lizards with ease. For this reason, they’re one of the best forms of pest control available to the average homeowner. Just bring your feline friend home and let it wander freely around your property. The presence of a cat alone may be enough to keep unwanted geckos from coming back.  Dispose of gecko remains as soon as you discover them. Otherwise, they’ll soon begin to smell and may become a health hazard. If the idea of letting a cat catch and kill geckos doesn’t sit well with you, you may be better off going with a non-lethal option. Mix 1 part hot pepper juice with 2 parts water in a spray bottle and thoroughly douse problem areas where you suspect geckos may be getting in. Most ordinary hot sauces will work just fine for this purpose. The capsaicin in the peppers is a mild irritant that will act as a natural repellent.  Avoid spraying areas that you and your family frequent too heavily. Hot pepper extracts can bother your airways if accidentally...

TL;DR in English: Keep your doors closed. Close up gaps in your home’s exterior. Get a cat. Spray the outside of your home with a pepper dilution.

Most Operating Systems (OSs) won't be able to run DOS games, but you can bypass this obstacle by making use of a DOS emulator. One highly recommended emulator by users is DOSBox, a free emulator you can find with a quick Internet search. Download and install DOSBox on your computer. This will require some searching on your part, but the DOSBox.com forum might connect you to the game you're looking for sooner than a general online search. After you find the game, download it to your computer. In many cases, the DOS game software you download will be bundled with installation instructions. For best results, you should follow all included directions. It is recommended that you can make a new folder  directly to your hard drive (usually prefixed by "C:" or "D:") to make mounting these files to a virtual hard drive easier. Move the DOS game(s) you downloaded to this folder in preparation for mounting these files in DOSBox. Some recommended names for your DOS games folder are:  DOSGames DOS Open DOSBox and through the text interface, type in the command "mount c C:\DOSBox". This will mount DOSBox's virtual drive, which you will use to install your game. The file path for the right installation program for your game will vary depending on which game you have downloaded. In principle, you will type the approximate command: "mount d C:\DOSGames\Installfolder - cdrom", but you will have to follow the individual instructions outlining the correct file path for installation. These should have been included with your downloaded DOS game.

TL;DR in English: Download a DOS emulator. Find the DOS game you wish to install and download it. Follow manufacturer instructions, if applicable. Create a folder for your DOS games. Mount your virtual drive. Run the appropriate installation program.

Add meat to make it a main dish. Mix in fresh produce for a couscous salad. Grate some cheese if you want a thick, creamy taste. Toss on some toppings for a bit of extra flavor.

Mini orchids have fast-growing roots, and one of the main reasons you need to periodically repot your orchids is to provide the roots with plenty of room. The new pot only needs to be large enough to fit the roots; you do not need to choose a pot that is significantly larger to anticipate further root growth. Media with a base of moss and bark is superior to standard potting soil. For best results, let the drenched media sit for a full 24 hours so that it thoroughly absorbs the water. Snip off green spikes 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) above the top node. Trim yellow or brown spikes 1 inch (2.54 centimeters) above the bottom node. Gently grab the base of the orchid with one hand and the pot with your other. Tip the mini orchid to its side or upside-down, and slowly squeeze or rotate the sides of the pot until the clump of roots comes free. Media breaks down as time passes, and old, decomposed media is more likely to cause your orchid's roots to rot. As a result, you need to remove as much old media as possible. Dead roots with look brown and wilted. Healthy roots, on the other hand, are white or green and relatively firm. You only need a little, since the mini orchid's roots should fill the majority of the container. Hold the orchid up so that the base of the lowest leaf dips below the rim of the pot by 1/2 inch (1.27 centimeters). Press down on the media gently to force it into the bottom and around the sides of the container. Periodically tap the side of the container to help settle it. Continue adding the media until the entire root system is covered, leaving the plant exposed from the bottom leaf up. Lift the plant up by the stem. If the pot starts to slip, you need to add more media to make the orchid more secure. Instead, sit it in a warm location and mist it with a little water each day. The leaves should stay dry at night.

TL;DR in English: Choose a slightly larger container than the one your orchid currently sits in. Look for a growing media that has large particles. Allow the growing media to soak in water. Trim the spikes. Carefully remove the mini orchid from its current container. Brush off any planting media stuck to the roots. Snip away dead roots. Scatter a little of the growing media into the bottom of your new container. Fit the mini orchid into its new container. Slowly pour the growing media around the mini orchid's roots. Check the sturdiness of your re-potted mini orchid. Refrain from watering your freshly potted orchid for the first 10 days.

Do you want to be more alert and invigorated? Do you want to de-stress? Do you have trouble sleeping? Once you decide, do an online search such as “energizing essential oils” to create a list of essential oils with this effect or characteristic.  Other examples of words to include in your search are calming, soothing, uplifting, clarifying, purifying and so forth. You can also do searches such as “essential oils for headaches” or “essential oils for depression.” When you first learn to blend essential oils, it’s best to stick to just a small number as things can go from fresh to foul fast. To make sure they will compliment each other, you must determine the category under which each of your listed essential oils falls. You can figure this out by doing an online search for "essential oil categories" or something similar. For each of the oils your search revealed and that you now have listed, write its category name beside it.  The nine categories are: floral, woodsy, earthy, herbaceous, minty, medicinal/camphorous, spicy, oriental and citrus.  As a rule of thumb, oils from the same category generally blend well together. Additionally, florals blend well with spicy, citrusy and woodsy oils. Woodsy blends well with all categories. Spicy and oriental oils blend well with floral, oriental, and citrus. Minty oils blend with citrus, woodsy, herbaceous and earthy oils. Essential oils are further divided by notes – top, middle and base notes – to create what is called a synergistic blend. Top notes evaporate the fastest and are sharp and refreshing; middle notes are warm and help equalize a blend; and base notes are heavier and help hold the blends essence longer. Taking your list of essential oils, next write down the note of each oil beside its name. You can also find them listed by note type online. Or you can check out a book from your local library that will list both categories and types. Through the process of elimination, take your list and select one oil from each note, ensuring that all oils you choose are...

TL;DR in English: Decide the effect you want from the smelling salts. Select three essential oils by category type. Determine the notes of your essential oils. Choose your essential oils. Determine the oil blend ratio. Create your essential oil blend. Label the bottle.

Programming and system analysis are creative processes, not an industrial one. Geeks must constantly come up with solutions to new problems and rarely ever solve the same problem twice. Therefore they need leeway and flexibility. Strict dress codes and too much red tape kill all innovation. They also need creative workspace surroundings to avoid “death by cubicle”. This means that phones may ring to voicemail during times of intense work, when interruption would destroy the flow. If it's urgent, make the effort to turn up in person. Many managers like structured meetings because they have been trained to check off things––agenda, check; time limits, check; following agenda without deviation, check; and filling the time allotted for the meeting, check. Organic meetings allow for meandering, they don't have specific time requirements and they can go over the time, include random debate and actually be fun. This is how creativity thrives and you may get some of your best solutions during organic meetings. Let go your inner perfectionist and let geeks run a few of the meetings.

TL;DR in English: Remember that geeks are creative workers. Acknowledge that geeks will answer the phone and emails when it is convenient. Try to have a mix of organic and structured meetings.

Be careful not to change who you are in your relationship with an egotist. A selfish person will bring out the giver or the care-taker in you; which could be potentially harmful. Don't feel like you have to change yourself to accommodate him. Resist the urge to stifle who you are or even what you are good at out of fear of how your partner will react. Just as you may have to accept that your partner is selfish, he have to accept that you are going to be just who you are as well. That should just be one more thing he loves about you. If you find you are the giver in the relationship and you feel that your partner is always taking, then invest some of your energy into other interests to protect yourself from the relationship imbalance. Make sure you are giving yourself and your interests the attention and care you deserve.  Take classes or carve out time in your schedule to do things that you enjoy, focusing on self-care and your own needs. You can always put your giving energy into volunteering as well. Try organizations such as Volunteer Match. Even if your partner is trying to change, there are potential pitfalls that come from being in a relationship with an egotist. You may be helping her change, being patient while she works through some things, and trying to boost her self-esteem. Make sure, during this time, you are staying aware of how you feel. There may be some ups and down, and it is important you remain aware of how it is affecting you.  Keep track of how happy you are in the relationship and how your day-to-day life is being affected. Notice how drained or exhausted you are feeling and make sure to give yourself the time and attention needed to recover. Try not to let this relationship become all-consuming for your life. Spend time with friends, or work on a hobby or interest that is important to you.  Set firm boundaries if she tries to push your buttons or engage you in a fight. You can say something like, "I'm not going to respond when you're yelling at me like this. I'm going to go in the...

TL;DR in English: Be true to yourself. Enjoy other interests. Acknowledge your feelings. Find a support system. Consider leaving the relationship if it is not making you happy.

Couscous isn’t just a side. Add in a sausage like chorizo or sweet Italian sausage, or serve some chicken breasts over a bed of couscous to make it a main dish. The juices from the meat will absorb into the couscous, and the flavors added into the pasta while cooking will complement the meat. If you are a vegetarian, adding a roasted portobello mushroom is a great way to top couscous. You could also skip the meat entirely and add handfuls of fresh veggies. Let your couscous cool for five or ten minutes. Then, add in as much fresh fruits and veggies as you want. Couscous is perfect for a grain salad, and it hold up against both sweet and savory. Bell peppers, cucumber, zucchini, and chopped spinach are all commonly seen in couscous dishes. You could also try produce like:  Apples, which work well in dishes with sausage Dried apricots in Mediterranean or Middle Eastern inspired dishes Strawberries, which pair well with both balsamic vinegar and basil Any grilled vegetables to add a smoky flavor Cherry tomatoes, which can help balance a salty dish Snap peas or celery for a fresh touch Too much cheese can overwhelm the other flavors you put in your couscous, but a little bit can enhance the work you’ve put in. Melt a handful of fresh grated Parmesan to a cup of couscous for a creamy, savory side. You can also add feta to give your couscous a bit of a bite. Add a final dash of flavor to your couscous by finishing it with a savory topping. Pine nuts, dried cherries, dried cranberries, pomegranate seeds, shaved Parmesan or Romano cheese, or sun-dried tomatoes all make excellent toppers. Pick one topping and add a small amount to your dish. These are all powerful flavors, so one serving size should be enough per cup of couscous.

TL;DR in English:
