Identify negative thinking. Focus on positive thinking. Practice being optimistic. Make an effort to silence your “inner critic. Don’t live in the past.

Chances are, you are good at something. You must have been good enough at what you do to land this job and to hold onto it. Don’t allow negative self-perceptions to rule you. Instead, build up the positive aspects of your work performance. Start by creating a list of everything you are good at doing, ranging from very simple to extremely complex. Anytime you start to feel like you are not clever enough, return to this list and remember that you are. Your physical environment at work can have a huge effect on your mood, contributing to either a positive or negative self-image. Give yourself a boost by creating an upbeat environment. Decorate your desk with bright colors, positive statements, and images that make you happy. If it is allowed, you may also want to invest in an essential oil diffuser and freshen your air with lavender or citrus oils (both proven to reduce stress and improve your mood). Confidence is governed by hormones in your brain. When you feel confident, your brain releases a series of hormones. But researchers have concluded that even when you fake feeling confident, the same hormones are released. In other words, if you fake being self-confident at work, you will quickly become it!  Envision your most confident self. How do you comport yourself? How do you move through the office? How do you dress? Put that vision into action! Even if you don't feel confident on the inside, perform confidence outwardly. Having a optimistic and upbeat attitude toward life is a conscious choice that requires practice. When you are faced with a challenge or a stressful situation, you can choose how you will handle it. If you can manage to cultivate a positive outlook during stressful times, not only will you begin to feel more clever, but others will be drawn to you.  Anytime you are faced with a challenging or stressful situation, stop and take a moment to breathe. Check in with your emotional response. Are you angry. frustrated, nervous, or anxious? Remember that those emotions do not serve you. Is there a...

TL;DR in English: Assess your competencies. Shape your environment. Fake it ‘til you make it. Practice a positive attitude. Do something useful.

Drinking brandy “neat” means that you are drinking it by itself with no ice or mixer. You taste only the brandy and nothing else, allowing you to fully experience the flavor. Ice will melt and water down the brandy, ruining the flavor. The best brandies should be savored on their own. This will help you enjoy the flavor fully, heightening your experience and allowing you to truly get a taste of the best brandy experience. A brandy snifter or brandy balloon is a short glass with a wide base whose sides taper in at the top. It will have a short stem and come in many sizes, although no more than 2 ounces (60 ml) will usually be served at a time. These glasses are perfect for drinking brandy because they concentrate the subtle aromas at the top of the glass when nosing or smelling them. A thoroughly clean snifter that has been air-dried prevents other tastes from interfering with that of the brandy. Brandies do not need to breathe like wine does. If you let it sit for too long then some of the volatile alcohols will evaporate. This will lose some of the character of the brandy. Many connoisseurs prefer to warm up the brandy because gentle heat enhances the flavor and aroma. The best way to do this is to simply hold the glass in your hand to gently warm it up. The wide base of the glass makes it easy to warm in your hand.  You also can warm the glass by pouring warm water in it and then pouring out before filling with your brandy. Another way to warm the brandy is to carefully heat the glass over an open flame. Be careful not to overheat! Overheating can cause the alcohol to evaporate and ruin the bouquet and flavor. Do not swill the glass because you can lose some of the subtle aromas in the brandy. Nosing (smelling through your nose) the brandy at this distance will allow you to smell the floral notes and introduces the delicate aromas to your nose. This prevents your senses from being overwhelmed when tasting. Raise the snifter to chin height and take a deep breath through your nose. Nosing at this height will...

TL;DR in English: Learn what neat means. Drink brandy neat when you have a good quality aged brandy. Get a brandy snifter. Serve immediately. Warm up the glass in your hand. Smell the brandy while holding the glass at chest height. Bring the glass to your chin and smell through your nose again. Raise the snifter to directly under your nose and smell through both your mouth and nose. Take a very small sip. Take more sips, starting small and working your way up to bigger sips. Start young and move older if you are tasting multiple brandies. Try not to look at the type and cost of the brandy if you are tasting a number of brandies.

Most clippers come with several snap-on plastic guards. The guards ensure an even trim at the length you want - no one wants to cut their beard too short.  If you're not sure which of two guards is best, start with the longer attachment first. You can always go back over the beard with a shorter guard afterward, but if you trim too short, you can't put it back on. If you don't have a guard available, you can hold a comb in front of the clippers and trim off the hair that slips through the comb's teeth. Maintain balance between each side of your face by always starting at the ears and working down. The guard should keep the trimmer from irritating your skin or cutting too much hair. Start under your nose and move toward the corner of the mouth, then proceed down to your chin. Pay special attention to hard-to-reach areas directly under your nose.  Keep your mouth closed to avoid a mouthful of hair! Depending on the length of your beard, it may be easier to trim the mustache separately with scissors. Remove the guard from the trimmer and trim along your neckline to remove the remaining hair on your neck. Use your jaw as a straight edge. If you like, you can also lather and shave your neck, depending on how you like it styled. Some prefer a clean cut-off line for their beard, while others prefer subtle neck stubble.

TL;DR in English: Select a guard. Turn the trimmer on and with a gentle but firm pressure, trim each side of your face, working along the grain using long smooth strokes. Trim your mustache and chin. Finish the trim with a clean edge.

You may be sabotaging yourself with negative thoughts and not even realize it. Begin by simply becoming aware of negative thoughts, and how they may be affecting you. Some common forms of negative thinking include:  Filtering, or minimizing positive aspects while magnifying the negative. Polarizing, or seeing things as only good or bad with no middle-ground. Catastrophizing, or only imagining the worst-case scenario. With a little practice, you can learn to transform your thoughts. Start by following one simple rule: Don’t say anything about yourself that you wouldn’t say about a friend. Be gentle with yourself. Encourage yourself the way you would encourage a close friend. It is a misconception that some people are naturally positive, while others are inherently negative. In reality, optimism takes practice. Try to intentionally see the silver lining. Instead of thinking, “I’ve never done this before,” tell yourself, “This is an opportunity to learn something new.” ” We all have that inner voice that tends to critique or question us. This voice may tell us that we are not good enough, not talented enough, or not worthy of someone’s love. These thoughts are meant to protect you from failure or heartbreak, but in truth, they do nothing but hold you back. When your inner critic speaks up, ask yourself these questions.  Are these thoughts really true? Is it possible that these thoughts are not true? Can I admit that they might not be true? Can I imagine the possibility that really I am good enough, talented enough, and worth of love? If guilt, pain, or regret over past circumstances are bringing you down, you can work to release those emotions.  Make the active choice to let something go. Write it down and/or speak it out loud. Express your pain and/or take responsibility. If there is something you need to say to someone, say it, even if what you need to say is “I’m sorry.” Forgive yourself and others. Try to remember that everyone makes mistakes. Nobody is perfect, and everyone deserves another chance (even you).

TL;DR in English:


Pick a topic. Build on a story. Use the news as inspiration. Write down everything you can think of. Draft a few jokes based on your brainstorming. Revise your jokes. Record yourself on the go. Joke with your friends and family. Get together for improv sessions with your friends.

Examine all the recipes you have on your cookbook theme. Sort through them for recipes that you think taste the best and that you'd like to include in the cookbook. Select 10 to 15% more recipes than you plan on putting in the cookbook. Avoid including recipes that you have had trouble making or aren't passionate about. Think about the recipes that you've made for other people. If any of them were a big hit, include them in the cookbook. Test more recipes than you think you'll need, since you may change your mind about using some of them. As you test, write very detailed descriptions of how to make each recipe. Include helpful tips to encourage your readers to make the food. Try to give substitutions for ingredients and variations for the recipes.  For example, instead of saying, "Cream the butter and sugar," instruct your readers to, "Beat room temperature butter with the sugar on medium speed until it's light and fluffy." Ask other people to test your recipes. This way you can get feedback about how clear your instructions were, how the food tasted, and where you need to improve the recipe. Read over all of the testing notes and any feedback you got from others. Create a detailed recipe by explaining how to cook or assemble the ingredients. Be as clear and thorough as you can so people of many skill levels can cook your food. Diagrams and illustrations may be as helpful as photos in some cases. If you can't draw, find someone who is willing to help out. High-resolution, quality photos help the reader imagine the end result of a recipe and inspire them to make the dish. Decide if you'd like to take a photo for every recipe or just include a few for each chapter. If your photography skills need brushing up, take a quick class or learn how to use photo-editing software to edit the pictures. You can also hire a photographer to photograph your food, but this will add to the cost of making your cookbook. All the recipes in your book should be written by you or at least changed in some way to make them your own....

TL;DR in English: Gather your own recipes. Make the recipes and write down tips. Write each recipe as you want it to appear in the cookbook. Take photographs of the food. Give proper credit to others.

If you're going to throw your knife away, bubble wrap is your best option. This safely coats the blade, preventing injury and accident during disposal.  You might want to wrap the knife in butcher paper first. Then, wrap the knife in a few layers of bubble wrap.  If necessary, wrap a layer of duct tape around the bubble wrap to keep it secure. You should consider adding an additional layer of cardboard when disposing of a knife. Place it in an old shoebox or other cardboard container before throwing it out. This may also be effective if you plan on donating the knife. If you do not have cardboard or bubble wrap, you can use newspaper, old clothes, socks, or any material you can easily wrap around the blade. Simply wrap the knife in a few layers of your chosen materials. If necessary, wrap some tape around the material to keep the knife in place.

TL;DR in English: Use bubble wrap. Try cardboard. Make use of other materials.

If you are experiencing lightheadedness, dizziness, confusion, or altered vital signs (such as a fast heart rate and an increased respiratory rate), you may have a more severe form of dehydration that warrants professional medical attention. The most common causes of severe dehydration are heat stroke (from spending too much time in the sun), extreme endurance sports, and illnesses that involve diarrhea and/or vomiting. If you believe you may have any of these medical conditions, or if you are worried that you may have severe dehydration, it is best to see a doctor sooner rather than later for treatment. IV (intravenous) fluids are the fastest and most efficient way to replace fluids if you are suffering from severe dehydration. This is because the fluid is injected straight into your vein, rather than having to go the long route of being absorbed by your digestive system. IV fluids are also tailored to your specific needs with the perfect balance of fluid, salt, and calories to optimize your body's hydration and overall health. If you have an illness such as diarrhea and/or vomiting, you may not be able to consume fluids orally (due to nausea and/or vomiting, or diarrhea which prevents absorption); therefore, IV fluids may be your only option in severe cases. It is important to understand that severe cases of dehydration require not only fluids for treatment, but also diagnosing and resolving the underlying cause of the dehydration — a job best accomplished by an experienced physician. If you try to rehydrate yourself without first identifying the cause of the problem, it is unlikely to lead to a long-term or permanent solution; therefore, if in doubt it is best to see a doctor who can guide you through the steps to getting properly hydrated and in good health once again.  The specific diagnosis underlying dehydration also affects the treatment course, in many cases. This is another reason why identifying the underlying cause is key. If you suffer from a chronic disease such as congestive heart failure,...

TL;DR in English: Recognize signs of severe dehydration. Get IV fluids. Get a diagnosis for the underlying cause of your dehydration.

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

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

There are plenty of ways to pick topics for jokes. You can start with prompts that help you think of things you feel strongly about. When you have a list, think about whether anything you've written down has the potential to be funny.  Ask yourself what you love. For example, maybe you have a serious love of Renaissance festivals. What could be funny about that? Do you always wear a costume that gets you funny looks in public? Are there certain "types" of people who attend the festivals that you could describe in a funny way? Consider what you hate. Maybe you hate spiders. You could come up with great jokes based on why you hate spiders: tell a story about a time you tried to kill a spider by yourself. Or describe spiders themselves in a funny way. Think about what annoys you. The things that might annoy you are a great source for comedy. Describe how annoying the subway is – people sitting too close, a couple making out in the corner, the one guy who always has his music playing without headphones. If you've already got a funny story you like to tell, use it for the base of your jokes. Build on it by telling jokes or other stories that are related. For example, if you have a really funny story about going to a theme park, use that as your base story. Then write other jokes related to theme parks – they could be about the food, waiting in line, or dealing with kids. Look for news stories that strike you as particularly ridiculous or funny or outrageous. Then make it personal using the following formula: "X happened in the news. If I did that/if that happened to me..." and fill in the rest.  Not everything that comes out of this exercise will be funny, but you'll occasionally get some good stuff! For example, if you see a news story about politicians behaving badly, you could use that. You could start the joke by saying something like "Senator Smith just spent $100,000 on a private plane for his wife. If I spent $100,000 on a private plane I'd have a plane but no wife." Once you have a topic in mind, sit down...

The better you know the sport, the better you'll be able to play, knowing what to expect and how to work on potential problems. You can ask just about anyone who knows the sport, but also check websites, ask coaches, and join a team. Play, play, and play some more until it becomes a part of you. Understand that basketball is both a physical and mental sport.  They are both extremely important. If you lack in one area, focus on trying to improve in that area without forgetting the other. For example, if you need to work on your dribbling, but just finished working on your dribble, dribble up to the hoop from half-court, and shoot a layup. Get down to a gym and start working out. Lesser players can beat the greatest talent if they can outrun and outlast their opponent. Michael Jordan is quoted to have said that the best players are good scorers, good defensive players, and good team players. To be all three, you've got to be in great shape. Here are some exercises to help you out:   Push-ups. Lots of push-ups and in different varieties, like fingertip push-ups. You will be amazed  at how much better you can palm the ball if you have strong fingers.  Even if you think you don't have large enough hands to palm the ball, it  can be done if you have stronger fingers.  Core workouts. Work on your core strength with abdominal crunches, leg lifts, planks, lower back extensions, etc. If you have a strong core you will be  able to take a hit and still finish strong at the rim.  Jump rope. Seems like a sissy activity, but it works! Jump rope as fast, long, and hard as you can. The better you can do this, the faster  footwork you can have on the court.  Jumping. Increase your vertical leap. If you're fast, agile, and  can jump, you can get rebounds even over a taller player. Most super-tall guys don't put all their effort into rebounds since they don't have  to. You can beat them if you work at it. like a madman. If you ever find yourself having to concentrate or focus  on your dribbling, then you're not good enough to go...

Consider dropping your own assessments of their problem and related ideas about how to fix things. Instead, consider ways you could be more empathetic. For instance, consider letting go of your desire to fix their problem and try to understand the details of their situation. You may not agree with their interpretation of their situation, but you should still listen attentively and try to understand them. Often, unsolicited advice comes from a place of not adequately understanding the situation or challenge that another person is going through. To move beyond this problem, you could try to understand and empathize with the challenge that they are going through. It might help to ask them clarifying questions:  “Can you tell me a little more about that?” “That sounds really tough. I’m not sure I understand how you got into that situation. Can you remind me how that happened?” After listening attentively, you can ask them directly how you could help out. They may simply say that you are helping by offering an attentive ear. If they need something specific, they may tell you. If they are specifically looking for advice, they will have the opportunity to ask you for it. Try saying:  “I’m here anytime you need me. Really, anything you need.” “What can I do to help?” Advice that is specifically requested is much more appreciated than unsolicited advice. If you are called upon to give advice, you can go ahead and offer your two cents on how to resolve the situation. Give advice if they ask the following kinds of questions:  "I really need advice on how to resolve this situation with my brother. I'm at a loss right now. Do you have any experience that would help?" "Have you ever dealt with a family member dealing with depression? Do you have any advice based on that experience?" Rather than telling them specific things to do, you should convey your care for them and listen to their problems. You shouldn’t promise to keep any secrets, since you may have to convey the information to a mental health professional. Listen...

TL;DR in English: Stop trying to fix their problems. Try to understand their state of affairs. Ask how you can help. Give advice if they specifically ask for it. Talk to them if they are at risk of self harm.

Conditioning may be the most important thing you can do for curly hair. Curly hair is already more prone to dryness and damage/breakage than other types. So keeping it moisturized with conditioner is essential for healthy curly hair. You can condition your hair while in the shower, or try some leave-in conditioner. These products will likely contain the same ingredients as products designated for curly hair. They’ll target the dryness and breakages, and that’s what matters. These ingredients will dry your hair out even more and lead to more damage. Many hair products are alcohol and silicone free; you just have to look at the labels to figure out which ones are. Many experts swear by the dry/no shampoo method. This is when you wash your hair with just water, or you only use conditioner in the shower (but no shampoo). This is meant to help your hair combat dryness and breakage.

TL;DR in English: Condition your curly hair. Use shampoo/conditioner for heat damaged hair. Avoid products with alcohol or silicone. Try the dry/no shampoo method.

Some of the major personal risk factors for prostate cancer are age and family history. The risk of prostate cancer increases the older you get. Although approximately 75% of the cases of prostate cancer have no pattern or order, about 20% of those with prostate cancer have had cases of the disease in their family previously. There are also approximately 5% of cases that are hereditary.  More than 80% of prostate cancers are diagnosed in men over the age of 65. If you have a first-degree relative, which would be a father, brother, or son, with prostate cancer, your risk of developing prostate cancer is two to three times higher than the average risk.  If you have BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene mutations, you are more likely to develop prostate cancer. Your doctor can test to see if you carry these genes. There may be a correlation between prostate cancer, waist circumference, and waist-to-hip ratio. This means carrying fat around your waist may increase your chances of developing prostate cancer. If you are African-American, the risk of prostate cancer is 60% higher than if you are Caucasian. African-American males are also twice as likely to die from prostate cancer and develop prostate cancer at an earlier age than Caucasian males. The hormones that your body naturally produce can contribute to the development of prostate cancer. Testosterone is a male sex hormone that is responsible for the deep voice, increased muscle mass, and strong bones that are prevalent in males. It is also responsible for the male sex drive and sexual performance and contributes to aggression. The growth of prostate cells is stimulated when testosterone is naturally converted to dihydrotestosterone (DHT).  According to studies, excess levels of DHT have been implicated in the development of prostate cancer. Another hormone implicated in the development of prostate cancer is excessive levels of insulin growth-like factor 1 (IGF-1). There is a modest increase in prostate cancer in men who have the high levels of IGF-1.

TL;DR in English: Learn about personal risk factors. Know the role race plays. Discover how hormones contribute.

If you are confident that the screen is as clean as it can be, you can apply the final rinse.  Use the hose once more to gently spray the remaining cleaning solution or dirt off of the screen.  Make sure you've totally rinsed the screen off before letting it dry and reinstalling it.  Do not use a high pressure or high power setting on the hose. Make sure you have sprayed the entire screen down. It can be a good idea to rinse the screen on both sides. If you are happy with the way the screen looks, you'll want to give it plenty of time to fully dry before installing it again.  Try using some of these tips to help you dry the window screens quickly and completely:  Wipe the screens down with a dry cloth or towel. Try gently shaking the screen off to remove some of the extra water. Lean the screen up against a wall to allow the water to a way to run off. Try leaving the screen somewhere in direct sunlight to help speed up the drying process. Once the screen is dry and you're happy with the way it looks, it's time to put it back in the window frame.  Replacing the screen can be done by reversing the steps you took to remove it.  Make sure the screen is securely in place to complete your window screen cleaning project.

TL;DR in English: Rinse the screen. Allow the screen to dry. Reinstall the window screen.

Get a nice big cardboard box. You may be able to ask for one at your local supermarket. It must be in good condition, and must be big enough to hold your cat. Using a pair of scissors or a box-cutter, carefully remove the top “flaps” from the box. You may want to save these for future art projects. Leave the bottom “flaps” intact. You are going to create a U-shaped opening in the front of your box to act as a doorway for your cat. First, take a pencil and mark the location you plan to cut. Then, using your scissors or box-cutter, carefully cut this opening in your box. Using construction paper or fabric, and some craft glue, decorate the outside of your box. This will transform your cardboard box into an attractive cat bed. The final step is to create a soft area inside the box for your cat to rest upon. This may be a folded up towel, some quilt backing, stuffing, or a pillow the right size. Place your soft materials in the bottom of your box, and your cat bed is ready for use!

TL;DR in English: Find a box. Remove the flaps from the box. Cut an opening in the front. Decorate the outside of the box. Line the inside of the box.

You can purchase anti-moth paper or paper strips that can be placed in your wardrobe, drawers, boxes, garment bags, or pantry. This paper will kill the larvae and the moths. Cedar balls are a great natural replacement for pesticides. Cedar contains an oil that kills small moth worms, but they don’t have much of an effect on larger worms or adult moths. Hanging a cedar ball in your closet or laying one in your dresser drawer can help, though it won’t solve all of your problems. You can also use cedar hangers. To be effective and safe, your mothballs should only be used when you’re storing your clothes in an airtight container. Place the mothballs in with the clothing, then seal it off. Mothballs do not work immediately, but they contain chemicals whose vapors can build up and kill moths in all stages of their life cycle. Wear gloves while handling mothballs because they can be toxic. Moths naturally avoid bay leaves, which you may keep in your kitchen already. For an easy and safe moth repellant, lay out a few bay leaves in your cabinets and pantries. Moths tend to avoid the smell of lavender, peppermint, cloves, thyme, and rosemary. Place your dried herbs in a breathable bag, and then add it to your closets, drawers, and storage areas. The scent of the herbs will ward off the bugs. You can use one herb or a combination of herbs in your sachets.

TL;DR in English: Use anti-moth paper or strips. Place cedar balls anywhere you store clothing. Use mothballs. Add bay leaves to kitchen cabinets. Make your own herb sachets.

Once again, invest in something of exceptional quality. The fabrics should be soft and smooth, like silk, jersey, and cashmere. Glamour style is, above all, elegant and sophisticated. Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe are good sources of inspiration. Avoid clothes that look too old, sporty, or messy. It is very important that you choose the image you wish to portray; there are many ways to look glamorous, and each one of them has its specific elements you must follow in order to portray that image. Here are some of them:   Old Hollywood glamour- think Marilyn Monroe and Sophia Loren. Its attributes are red lips, platinum blonde hair, diamonds, fur and '40s dressing style. Hair is very important; old Hollywood hairstyles are short-to-medium length, wavy and dyed blonde or black. As for makeup, wear red lipstick and use black mascara. Wear medium-length dresses and skirts, diamond earrings and fur coats.  Urban chic glamour- think Audrey Hepburn. Sleek lines, straight hair, and elegant, simple design- it's the favorite look of the wealthy New York women.  To get this look, wear trench coats, black tights, stiletto heels, little black dresses, business suits and simple, delicate jewelry. The most used colors are the neutral ones: black, white, and beige; however, bright colors are welcome too, but in smaller amounts. Oversized sunglasses are a must. Wear precious fabrics like silk, cashmere and jersey; the fabrics must be as high quality as you can find. Avoid wearing jeans. Accessorize with huge handbags, fine jewelry and watches. As for makeup and hairstyle, long hair and the classic bob style are definitely the most acceptable; the makeup is very natural.  Opulent diva glamour- the more expensive and rich-looking it is, the better. Everything is allowed here: excessive jewelry, glitter, feathers, heavy makeup- as long as it's not (too) tacky, it's acceptable. To get...

Avoid tanning and using sunless tanners for at least a month to prepare for laser hair removal. Refrain from plucking or waxing your skin. Shave the area that will be treated, as instructed during the pre-treatment consultation. Take oral antiviral medication or oral antibiotics if prescribed by your doctor. Clean the skin at the treatment site.

Covering your plants are the most effective way to prevent birds from eating your grapes. For added protection or to deter particularly relentless birds, however, you can try repellents as an added precaution. Garlic oil is a natural bird repellent that can teach birds to avoid your garden over time. Spray birdseed with garlic oil and set up a bird feeder near your grapevines. Put the garlic oil-covered seeds in the bird feeder and check whether fewer birds infest your garden over time. Garlic oil's strong odor can also repel some insects. Bird distress calls or predatory animal noises can train birds to avoid a certain area. Search "irritating noises for birds" online and put a recording on the speakers to scare birds from your yard. Wind chimes can also repel birds, if you'd prefer a pleasant-sounding alternative. Ask your neighbors before setting up a tape—you want to drive away birds, not people. Draw menacing faces or predatory animals on your balloons to frighten animals away. Secure the balloons to posts around your garden, and move them every few days to mimic a live predator. If you don't mind a higher electricity bill, strobe lights can also repel birds. Lawn ornaments shaped like predatory animals can keep birds away. Look for ornaments shaped like owls, foxes, or snakes online or at your local garden center and set them up near your garden.  Move the lawn ornaments every few days to trick the birds into thinking they're alive If you cannot find any lawn ornaments, you can also cut outlines shaped like predatory animals out of black paper and secure them to a flat surface. Killing wild birds is illegal in most countries, and poisonous bird repellents could contaminate your grapes. Purchase a non-toxic repellent, preferably made from natural ingredients, and spray it as needed around your garden.  You can get non-toxic bird repellents online or at some nursery garden centers. Ask the store employee for advice on repellents that are safe to use near your garden. Check the bird repellent's directions...

TL;DR in English: Use bird repellents as a supplement to bags, tulle, or netting. Fill a bird feeder with garlic oil-laced seed. Set up a tape of irritating noises or wind chimes. Tie shiny Mylar balloons near your grapevines. Put up lawn ornaments of common bird predators. Spray a non-toxic bird repellent. Set up bird wire in your yard.

If you only want to skip a few periods, say that you have a dentist or doctor's appointment, or that you need to miss school for a family commitment. Usually, you won't want to try to fake a parent's voice — the office isn't stupid — so it's usually best to come up with someone else to cover for you, then share. Older siblings and cousins might be up for calling you out of school, likewise friendly neighbors or a sibling of one of your friends. Make sure they keep the conversation brief and non-specific. It's best if you can actually have a real appointment or reason to miss school. You might consider telling your parent the orthodontist scheduled you an appointment when you really haven't got one, or that they need to call you out for an appointment with your coach to go over plays for the weekend's game. A call from your parents will seem more real, even if the appointment isn't. When you're making a fake appointment, it's best if you can keep it as vague and non-specific as you can to avoid causing suspicion. If you get your brother to call you in and say, "He's got a doctor's appointment this morning and he's not going to be able to make it in today," the office will be unlikely to question it.

TL;DR in English: Call yourself out for the entire day or a certain period. Make or fake an appointment. Be as general as possible.

Depending on where you live you will have better luck with some grass varieties than others. Grasses fall into two basic categories: warm-season and cool-season.  Warm-season grasses will be able to survive a brutal summer and tend to do well in the southern states. Choose from varieties such as Bermuda, St. Augustine, and Kikuyu.  Cool-season grasses handle cold much better than warm-season grasses. They can tolerate freezing temperatures and some drought. Don't expect them to survive the heat or go longer than 4 weeks without water. Kentucky bluegrass is a popular cool-season grass. If you choose a warm-season grass, plant in late spring. If you choose a cold-season grass, plant in late summer or early fall. If you're going with sod, the time of year doesn't matter as much, though summer may still be too hot. Before you get started planting grass, you'll need to make sure your soil is in good condition. It's a good idea to test your soil. Soil testing will give you an idea of how much fertilizer to use, and what kind.  It is difficult to amend soil in an established lawn.  If you need to add fertilizer work it into the first 4-6 inches. This is a critical step. Soil preparation is the most important part of healthy lawn growth. Your goal is a soil that is loose, rich in organic matter, and able to hold moisture while draining well.  Clear the area of all weeds, rocks, and roots. Using a shovel dig up any large objects in the area where you'll be planting grass. Make sure you get rid of all weed roots.  You may have to use a chemical weed killer to get rid of weeds completely. If you must use chemicals, refer to the manufacturer for instructions on how much to use.  Till your soil either by hand or using a rototiller depending on the size of the area.  This is the perfect opportunity to mix any compost or other amendments to your soil.  Add gypsum to your soil to improve drainage. Now that you've cleared and tilled the area, it is ready for leveling. Use a garden rake and smooth out the entire area. Fill in...

TL;DR in English: Pick which grass is best for your climate. Know when to start. Test your soil. Prepare your soil. Level out the area.

Gifted does not mean mere intelligence or book smarts. Gifted people excel at a variety of activities and in a number of different ways. Extraordinary talents can be expressed through art, athletics, communication, mechanics, and more. This means that a gifted student will not always be at the top of the class in every subject, but might just excel in one particular subject. Being a well-adjusted and successful gifted student means that you should be proud of all aspects of who you are. This includes your intelligence, but pride in self should transcend mere intelligence. You should be confident in who you are as a family member, an athlete, and a friend. At the same time, don’t let this go to your head. And remember, you are not the center of the universe! Be proud, but practice humility. Remember that there is always more to learn, and that every experience is a learning opportunity. Embrace the fact that you are a student. Being a student is a privileged position. You have the benefit of learning from teachers and professors who have substantial education and life experience. Approach your knowledge and experience limitations as an opportunity to grow and learn from others. Expect that you may not be good at everything just because you are gifted. Being gifted does not mean that you have to succeed or can succeed at everything. Recognize where your talents lie, and set your expectations accordingly.

TL;DR in English: Understand what being gifted really means. Be proud of all your assets, not just your intelligence. Realize that you don’t know everything. Avoid unrealistic expectations for yourself.

The skin should be as light as possible at the time of treatment. For this reason, many people choose to undergo laser treatment during winter. Apply sunscreen with at least an SPF 15 if you do need to spend time outdoors, and the area you wish to have hair removed by laser will be exposed to UVA/UVB rays. Shaving is fine, but these other hair removal techniques can reduce the effectiveness of the laser treatment. Also, the hair should not be bleached. This is usually a day or two before the appointment. The hair follicles should be visible, but it can be more painful if longer hair is present during the laser hair removal.  Leave it free of cosmetics, lotions and creams. If you apply deodorant, it will be removed prior to treatment.

You might not be able to find a book that addresses the child's issues, or you may not feel that the books available are appropriate to your child. You may decide to create your own story about a child facing a similar problem.  You can decide if you want to write out the story, and perhaps illustrate it, or tell the story aloud to the child. Look for a bibliotherapy or writing group nearby where you can get support and assistance. Meetup.com is a great place to start looking. Think of ways the child exhibits a particular behavior or deals with a certain situation, common consequences to the child's actions, and the outcome you would like to see.  Describe the child's current behavior or situation at the beginning of the story. Have the child engage in this behavior and then receive consequences for their actions. Or, the child is exposed to a new situation and doesn't know how to handle it. Describe the character's reaction to the situation. For example, “When Sally the Bunny was teased on the playground, her ears drooped and she got very quiet.” Or, “Even though the teacher had already told him to raise his hand, Johnny couldn't resist shouting out the answer again. The teacher told Johnny to stay after school.” The child should be able to relate to the main character's “crisis” in the story. Enter a character like parent, teacher, or someone older and respected. This character connects with the protagonist and helps them understand what they are feeling, giving them ways to change their behavior. Present a solution that you think your child would be willing to try.  Give the character another opportunity to face the same situation, this time using the techniques they learned to successfully solve the problem. For example, “After talking to Miss Cabbage, Little Onion knew just what to say when the other kids at Vegetable School called her stinky. And she made sure to take a good bath in the sink that night.” Your character in the story will successfully face the situation in the story using the new behavior...

TL;DR in English: Consider writing your own story. Develop a story. Keep the story light and fictional.

These small, circular or flower-shaped adhesive coverings are meant to cover only your nipples, so they’re a great option for low-cut tops and thin or sheer fabrics that might make your nipples visible. Stick the adhesive side onto your nipple and press it down gently. Look for a color close your skin tone for the least noticeable solution.  You can buy stick-on nipple covers online or in stores that sell bras and related accessories. Wash the covers with gentle soap and water after use and store them in their original packaging to reuse. The adhesive will wear out eventually, but many covers come with a 30 to 50-wear guarantee. Like the silicon nipple covers, pasties are placed directly over your nipple and stay on using a sticky adhesive. They’re cheaper and come in packs of 4-6, because they’re meant to be for one-time use. Some people prefer pasties because they’re less noticeable under tight shirts than silicon covers, which are thick and might stand out under a tight fabric. On the flip side, pasties might not be as adept at concealing your nipples when they harden. Try both nipple covers and pasties to see which works best at concealing your nipples. Cut the pad in half, then cut out 2 circles large enough to cover your nipples, keeping the paper covering the adhesive in place. Stick them on over your nipples and throw them away when you’re done.  Like pasties, this method might not conceal hard nipples well under a tight shirt. Try it at home before you wear it out. You can also use small bandages or surgical tape.

TL;DR in English: Wear reusable silicone nipple covers under thin fabrics. Try disposable pasties for a cheap, one-time cover-up. Cut a panty liner for a cheap DIY stick-on covering.

There are many options, from light body sprays to the stronger perfumes and colognes. Fragrances smell slightly different on every person, so make sure you’ve tried yours on ahead of time to ensure you like the way it smells on you.  Keep in mind that strong fragrances bother some people, so keep in light if you decide to go this route. You may choose to skip it altogether if you are going to be very active that day, or if you will be in tight quarters with people. Another reason you may skip this step is if your deodorant is scented. You don't want too many competing scents. Perfume and cologne are totally optional! This is also optional, but makes some people feel more confident. There are many different kinds of makeup you can try, and the options can be overwhelming if you don’t use makeup often. Just try different products until you find the ones you feel the best in.  If you decide to wear make up, try to keep it looking natural and refrain from applying too many colors or products on the same day. Always apply makeup on a clean face and remember to wash it off at the end of the day. Keep your backpack and purse (if applicable) tidy. You could have the best outfit and hair in school, but fumbling around with crumpled papers and items falling out of your bag could make you appear disheveled. You look great and you are totally ready for school. Go get ‘em!

TL;DR in English: Decide whether you want to wear perfume or cologne. Apply makeup if you’d like. Get organized! Smile!

To effectively train your dog to not eat the cat food, you have to wait until he actually does it to discipline him. Otherwise, he won't understand what he did wrong and the training won't work. When you put down the cat food, wait a few minutes and see if the dog goes for it. If he does so, then take corrective action. ” Using the command you’ve taught your dog, show your dog the gesture as you say “leave it” in a firm (but not yelling) voice. If your dog does not respond, you may need to use other tactics to create a negative association between an unpleasant (but not harmful) experience and eating cat food. A spray bottle can startle your dog so he'll associate eating the cat's food with an unpleasant (but harmless) experience and will not want to do it anymore.  Fill a spray bottle with water and keep it near the cat's bowl so you can reach it easily. Wait for your dog to go for the cat food. Then take the spray bottle and send 2 squirts toward the dog. In addition to using a spray bottle to discourage the dog, you could also get a similar effect from startling the dog with a loud noise.This is supposed to scare your dog so he will be discouraged from eating the cat food again.  A few things you could use are a coffee can filled with coins, a whistle, or a magazine smacked against the table. Wait until your dog goes for the cat food and then make the loud, startling noise. Try to make it so that the dog does not know you are the source of the sound. You want him to respond negatively to the sound, not to you. The other side of dog training is rewarding behavior that you want to continue. When the dog eats his own food from his own dish, pile on the praise. Tell him he is a “good boy” and pet him (if he will allow it while he is eating -- some dogs will not). Yelling at your dog is ineffective, as he is unlikely to make the connection between you yelling and his eating. It could just make your dog decide that he’s scared of you, in which case he will wait until you are not there to eat the cat food.

TL;DR in English:


Use language that’s descriptive and concise. Make each sentence reveal character details and advance the plot. Include a few paragraphs after your climax. Give your flash fiction a fitting title.

In a lowered gun stance (safe-carry position), pull your gun up, as quickly as possible, to firing position and fire multiple shots into the target. Do not use your sights! This drill is to get you less dependent on your sights.  It may take quite a few tries, but you will find you eventually can place that bullet near the center of your target every time. The key is to try to perform it quickly, but try to take just enough time to allow the momentum of your arms and gun to slow as you get to the target. Attempt to stretch your abilities by increasing the distance to the target, or decreasing the time you have to fire. Try to get good hits. A slow hit is always better than a fast miss. You want to start by setting up three or more targets a yard or two apart. Quick to firing position and go down the line. One shot at each target.  Change it up: fire a burst at each target; maybe try in a different order; have a friend tell you which one to shoot ("one!", "three!", etc.), but the key thing to be sure of is that you hit your target; once you are sure you can hit your target every time, try to accelerate your pace. Try it from the close contact position at 3- then 5-yards. See how quickly you can change between targets and how many bullets land in "good hit" zones. While moving, you should still be able to hit targets at 5-yards. Set up three or more targets a few yards apart from each other. Start about 15–18 yards (13.7–16.5 m) back. Run up to about 5-yards (from your first target) while drawing your gun to firing position. Fire a two-shot burst, side-step to engage the next target, and so on.  Each time you run the course, try to do it faster; try not to pause when shooting, but remember that doing so will likely make you much more accurate. Try drawing when 3- or 5-yards away from the first target. Once you have landed good hits on the first target sidestep and move down the line of targets.

TL;DR in English: Position yourself 3-yards away from a large (10+ inch) target. Practice with multiple targets. Practice while moving.

A microwave-safe bowl is made out of materials that will not catch fire or melt in the microwave. Use a glass, plastic, or ceramic container, and put at least 5 oz (147.9 g) of washed spinach inside. To check if your container is safe for the microwave, look at the bottom. Most containers will read “Microwave-safe” if you can use them in the microwave. Place the container inside your microwave, and select a high heat setting. After 2 minutes, remove your spinach from the microwave. Use caution when removing the spinach as the container may be very hot.

TL;DR in English: Put your spinach in a microwave-safe bowl. Cook your spinach in the microwave on high heat for 2 minutes.

If you have arachnophobia, you likely fall into one of two categories: a monitor or a blunter. A monitor will search the environment (car, clothes, house, etc.) for a spider. When they find a spider, they will carefully monitor the movements of the spider to make sure it is not coming near them. A blunter, on the other hand, will do whatever they can to avoid seeing a spider. If they do see a spider, they will try to pretend that it is not there.  If you are a blunter, it will probably be more difficult for you to deal with the spider because you don’t even want to acknowledge that it is there. In some cases, a blunter may also be referred to as, “an avoider.” What is it about spiders that leads to anxiety? Did you have a traumatic experience at some point in your life? Have you heard stories, or is it simply the way they look? Identifying what it is that scares you about a spider may help you to deal with that fear.  If you have a very strong phobia, you probably know that no amount of rationalization will help you overcome your fear. If you truly don't know where or why your fear originated, that is okay too. While it can provide some understanding, it isn't necessary in order to treat a phobia. There are very few spiders in the world that are actually aggressive, and most will only bite if they feel threatened. Although it may hurt a bit, even venomous spiders typically cannot inject enough venom to do any significant damage to a healthy human being. A spider will do its best to stay out of your sight if it can.  Many spiders aren’t even able to penetrate human skin. If you do get bit by a venomous spider clean the wound with mild soap and running water. Apply a cool compress to the affected area. If you feel any discomfort, you can take an over-the-counter pain medication.  In the United States, the two venomous spiders to watch out for are the black widow spider and the brown recluse. A black widow spider can be identified by the red hourglass marking on its underside. The brown recluse spider is brown...

TL;DR in English: Understand what kind of arachnophobia you have. Think about why you are afraid of spiders. Remind yourself that spiders are almost always harmless. Learn about spiders. Seek professional help.

To use borax powder as an all-purpose household cleaner, simply sprinkle some on a clean, damp cloth and wipe down surfaces with it. After wiping, rinse surfaces clean with another fresh, wet cloth and let them air dry. Borax powder is suitable for use on household fixtures like:  Sinks Faucets Tiles Appliances Counter tops Bathtubs Sprinkle 1 cup (192 g) of borax powder into your toilet and let it sit overnight. After a few hours of soaking the borax should loosen any debris or deposits in the toilet, making them easy to clean away. In the morning, use a toilet brush to scrub away dirt, grime, and other buildup. Borax is gentle enough to use to clean  aluminum or porcelain cookware. Sprinkle borax powder over wet cookware and wipe it gently with a damp cloth. Rinse everything thoroughly and allow the cookware to air dry. Make a mixture of 3 cups (21 oz.) of water and 2 tablespoons (8 g) of borax. Stir until all of the powder is dissolved. Dip a clean cloth into the liquid and wipe down windows, mirrors, patio doors, and other reflective surfaces to create a streak-free shine. Pour approximately 1/2 cup (48 g) borax down your clogged drain. Follow this immediately by pouring 2 cups (16 oz.) of boiling water down the drain. Let it sit for fifteen minutes, then run the water for 1-2 minutes to flush out the drain. Dissolve half a cup (96 g) of borax powder into one and a half cups (12 oz.) of water. Pour the mixture into a spray bottle and add a few drops of essential oil if desired. Spray on fabric and upholstery to neutralize odors and improve the overall smell of your home.

TL;DR in English: Use borax as an all-purpose cleaner. Clean toilets. Wash delicate cookware. Make windows and mirrors shine. Unclog drains. Neutralize household odors.

Make sure all of your character's actions and intentions are clearly communicated through your writing. Aim to write sentences with the fewest number of words you can use while still maintaining clarity. Instead of writing backstory, summarizing the feelings or emotions tied with the events instead.  For example, if your protagonist’s childhood is relevant to the story, do not write, “Sarah was born in a bathtub in Kansas City and lived there through elementary school, when her father got a job in Tulsa …” Instead, say something like, “Sarah reflected on her brief and unfulfilling childhood as she waited for a taxi.” It’s okay to use more than 1,000 words while you’re writing your first draft since you’ll be editing them out later on. Include your character’s qualities and personality in your sentences so your reader always gets new information about them. Throughout your writing, your reader should learn something new about the character or plot. Don’t include any sentences that are just descriptions or slow the plot down. Use your character’s dialogue to help reveal information or progress the plot as well. Flash fiction that ends just after the surprise or twist is revealed may leave readers unsatisfied since they want to know how a character reacts. Dedicate at least the last 1-2 paragraphs to resolve the conflict and let your reader know the outcome of the revelation. Your title should reflect the main ideas or conflict of your story. Brainstorm your theme and the elements of your story to see how you can combine them to make your title. Think of something catchy and easy to read so your reader is more likely to remember it. Your title can help describe any backstory that you didn’t include. For example, if you’re writing a story about a husband doing the routine of his wife who passed away, you may call your story “In Her Footsteps.”

TL;DR in English:


Select high-density carpet. Choose firm carpet padding. Hire a professional for installation.

Create a professional social media page where you can promote yourself as a drummer. Take videos of you drumming a few of your best songs and post them online. You can send links to show your skill to interested employers. This will make you searchable online, and increased visibility means a greater chance of you landing a gig. Go around to see if the restaurants, coffee shops, and bars in your area are looking for drummers. If no one is hiring, ask if there’s anytime you can play for free. Any exposure is good for you when you’re starting out. Another good way to find gigs is by checking sites like ThatsMyGig.com regularly to see if there’s been any postings for drummers in your area. Never say no to a gig unless you absolutely have to. You never know where you’ll create connections that’ll land you more jobs. If you want to be hired by the same person twice, don’t be late. It’s disrespectful to keep someone waiting, especially if they’re paying you. Something that impresses people is someone who is consistently punctual. Try being five to ten minutes early. That way, if there’s any traffic, you’ll be just on time.

TL;DR in English: Create a media kit. Find gigs to play. Show up on time.

If she seems comfortable around you, she may be ready to kiss you. Begin by slowly leaning your body and head toward hers as you talk. Turn to face her, point your feet in her direction, and lean in a little closer as the conversation continues. This will give her time to realize that you are interested in kissing her. If you are shy or you’re just unsure if she wants to kiss you, simply ask her. She will appreciate your politeness and respectfulness. Share how you feel before you ask her. You could say, “I know we just met, but I really like you. Would it be all right if I kissed you?” When you are about to kiss her, lean in about 90% of the way. Since you have only recently meet, it is a good idea to allow her to realize that you want to kiss her. If she is interested, she will lean in the rest of the way. If she turns her head away, she is not interested. As you lean in for the kiss, part your lips slightly and relax. Close your eyes, and gently press your lips onto hers. Be sure to breathe through your nose while kissing. After the kiss, pull away slowly and maintain eye contact. Pay her a compliment, go in for another gentle kiss, or kiss her on the cheek. Use this time to ask her if she would like to go on another date. Tell her that you would like to spend more time with her.

TL;DR in English: Lean toward her. Ask. Lean in halfway. Part your lips slightly. Pull away slowly.

If you are unsatisfied with the strength of your guitar’s signal, enhance it with a pre-amp. Pre-amplification is the first stage of amplification. These devices boost your guitar’s signal. You can purchase a pre-amp specifically designed for guitars. However, if you are looking to save money, several guitar accessories come equipped with pre-amps. These include, amp-modelers, pedals, drum machines, and direct boxes. The best pre-amps use tubes. Insert your standard guitar cable into your guitar. Plug the other end of the guitar cable into the input port of your pre-amp. Insert a ⅛” stereo in cable into your pre-amp’s PA Out or Line-Out port. Put the opposite end of this cable into your laptop’s audio-in port. If your laptop does not have an audio-in port, you will need to purchase an interface or a special cable that transforms your audio-out port, also known as a headphone jack, into an audio-in port. These products also work with phones and tablets. There are also adapters that plug into USB ports. If your guitar is connected properly to your laptop, you can hear the instrument through your computer’s speakers, a set of external speakers, or a pair of headphones. If you are not using your’ computer’s speakers, insert the external speaker cable or headphones into your laptop’s audio-out port. Strum your guitar to test the signal.  While the pre-amp will improve the strength of the signal, it may not decrease any delay you are experiencing. Delay, or audio latency, is the gap that exists between when a sound is inputted into the computer and when that sound is actually heard.  In order to hear your guitar, you may need to download and/or open recording software first. If you are experiencing sound problems, open your computer’s sound settings. Check to see if your sound is muted and that the correct port or device is selected (audio-in, audio-out, headphone, microphone, etc.). For specific instructions, consult your computer or device’s manual.

TL;DR in English: Purchase or find a device with a pre-amp. Connect your guitar and pre-amp to your laptop. Test the signal.

Back problems in dachshunds are actually spinal problems. Intervertebral discs, located between the vertebrae (bones in the spine), contain a gel-like substance that helps them act as shock absorbers. As your dachshund ages, these discs can harden and lose their shock-absorbing ability, causing the gel-like substance to squeeze out and compress his spine, causing pain and other problems.  High-impact activities (e.g., running, jumping), excess body weight, and irresponsible breeding can increase the risk of back problems in dachshunds.  Although IVDD is very common in dachshunds, back problems in this breed can be caused by infection (e.g., meningitis), spinal tumors, and trauma. Back problems can affect your dachshund’s ability to walk normally. For example, IVDD can make your dachshund very wobbly when she walks, or unable to walk at all. Even if your dachshund can walk, the pain caused by IVDD may make her reluctant to move. Spinal trauma or a spinal tumor may make walking difficult or impossible for your dachshund. If your dachshund has back problems, his posture may change. If he has IVDD, his neck or back muscles will be very tense and he will start hunching these muscles.  These tense muscles may start having spasms. The spasms will look like small, fast movements in the muscles. Each spasm could be quite painful for your dachshund. Your dachshund’s posture could be affected in similar or different ways with the other causes of back problems. Your dachshund will probably have pain and discomfort from her back problems. For example, IVDD may cause her to cry out in pain or seem anxious. She may also start eating less and be less willing to do the activities she used to do, such as playing or going out for walks. These changes would reflect a decrease in your dachshund’s quality of life. With severe back problems, a dachshund can lose control of his bladder or intestines, causing inappropriate urination or defecation. This loss of control, called incontinence, is a sign of a neurologic problem—damage to...

TL;DR in English: Learn about back problems in dachshunds. Watch how your dachshund walks. Look at your dachshund’s posture. Notice any changes in behavior or appetite. Identify elimination problems. Take your dachshund to your vet.

You can easily determine if a carpet is high density by folding over the sample. Then, look for the backing between the fibers. A high-density carpet will not show the backing. It will cost more, but will withstand the strain of heavy furniture better. It will also be more comfortable and last longer. A long pile height doesn’t necessarily mean that a carpet is dense. If each fiber is very thin, then it will still dent easily. Look for a firm, thin pad. Press your fingers into the pad and look for one that provides the most resistance. A thick carpet pad may reduce noise and be more comfortable to walk on, but it allows carpet to flex too much and increases the chances that carpet will develop dents. A pad that isn't firm enough will be permanently crushed by heavy furniture. Always install a fresh carpet pad with new carpet. If you create multiple layers of pads, then you’ll get a ripple effect on the carpet’s surface. Installing carpet on your own without expert guidance can lead to a lumpy, easily dented floor. Most carpet and flooring stores can recommend contractors to you who have experience with installation. Check their references and reviews personally before moving forward.  Most reputable contractors will also come out to your home and provide an estimate for your carpet installation project. If an installer doesn’t listen to your concerns about durability and denting, hire another person to do the job.

TL;DR in English:


Put the toasted spices into a mortar or spice grinder. Use the pestle or grind the spices until they're crushed into coarse pieces. You'll need to combine:  1 tablespoon of toasted whole black peppercorns 1 teaspoon of toasted coriander seed 1 teaspoon of toasted fennel seed 1 teaspoon of toasted cumin pods 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano Transfer the coarsely ground spices into a small bowl and add 2 medium cloves of minced garlic and 2 tablespoons (28 g) of vegetable or canola oil. Stir the spice rub together using a fork and rub this evenly over a 2 to 2 1/2 pounds (900 g to 1.1 kg) sirloin tip. Turn a gas grill on to high or prepare a charcoal grill. If you're using charcoal, dump the hot coals on one half of the grate to make 2-zones of heat. The grill should be hot and ready to use about 5 to 10 minutes before you're ready to grill the sirloin. Sprinkle the seasoned sirloin with kosher salt. Put it directly over the coals and grill the steak for 8 to 10 minutes. You should use tongs to turn the sirloin frequently so it cooks evenly. Stick a thermometer in the sirloin to check the temperature. It should register 125 degrees F (50 degrees C) once it's finished cooking. Remove the sirloin tip from the grill and place a piece of foil over the meat. Let it rest for 5 minutes so it finishes cooking. Use a sharp knife to slice the meat into thin strips. Turn the strips 90 degrees and and cut the strips into bites. Serve the grilled sirloin tips immediately. You can serve the grilled sirloin with grilled vegetables and crusty bread.

TL;DR in English: Grind the toasted spices. Make a spice rub and coat the sirloin. Heat a grill to high heat. Salt the sirloin and grill it for 8 to 10 minutes. Rest and slice the sirloin.

At about 24 hours after your normal wake up time, the body is likely to hit a wall, and you will feel most tired.  Experts say this is because of the body’s normal internal clock. That’s called your circadian rhythm. It means that you might feel more tired at the 24-hour mark of no sleep than you will at, say, the 30-hour mark.   Your body clock will give you periodic second winds. The body basically triggers a wake up signal in your brain that will give you a boost despite sleep deprivation. There are things you can do to trick the body into waking up. If it’s absolutely necessary for you to pull an all-nighter, make sure you do it in a safe way. Realize, though, that depriving the body of sleep is not good for the body. It releases cortisol into the body, which is the stress hormone.  Don’t drive if you’ve stayed up all night. It can be exceptionally dangerous to yourself and other drivers.  Studying all night also has been associated with lower grade-point average. So develop strategies so you don’t have to do it in the future. Be aware that staying up all night will affect your body in several other ways that could be dangerous. It might make you forget things and slow your reaction times. People who are deprived of sleep are more likely to perform worse at multi-tasking, indicating there is a decline in memory ability. Longer term sleep deprivation has been associated with a slew of negative affects on the body, such as weight gain, mood instability, and muscle fatigue. So if you end up going without sleep, make sure you give your body a chance to catch up. It's not a good idea to do this as a habit.

TL;DR in English: Understand how the body will respond to losing sleep. Ensure your safety while tired.

To remove any chemicals present on your fabric, run it through a simple wash cycle with detergent, using whatever settings you normally do for laundry. Do not use fabric softener as it may hamper the dyeing process by leaving a thin film on the tulle. To prepare your fabric for the dye mix, change your washer’s temperature setting to hot, then use the soak option to thoroughly dampen the tulle. If necessary, fluff the item after the soak to make sure it is loose and fully extended. This should not stain the dispenser as long as you rinse it immediately afterwards. Make sure to shake the dye well before putting it in, and wear rubber gloves while handling it to avoid staining your skin. To flush any excess dye residue out of your detergent slot, fill it with at least an equal amount of hot water. This means that, if you used 1 bottle of dye, you should rinse the dispenser with at least 1 bottle of hot water. Though you don’t need a lot, adding in some detergent will help better distribute the dye to every spot on the fabric, making sure it tints as evenly as possible. After adding the dye and detergent, let the tulle soak for about 10 minutes. At that time, put 1 cup (240 ml) of salt in 4 cups (950 ml) of hot water and stir the solution until the salt dissolves. Then, pour the mixture into the detergent slot to help your fabric soak up the dye. Pour in 1 cup (240 ml) of vinegar and another 2 cups (470 ml) of hot water if you’re dyeing nylon or silk. Choose the longest cycle available, making sure to select any extra rinse and spin options, then start the washer. Once the dye wash is finished, change your washing machine’s water temperature to warm and pour a capful of soap into the detergent slot. Then, start another long wash cycle, giving your tulle a chance to rinse out excess dye. Once the wash is complete, rinse the tulle under hot water to make sure no dye bleeds out. If some does, keep rinsing until the color stops running. Then, you can dry your fabric in the dryer or on a clothesline. You do not need...

TL;DR in English: Prewash your tulle. Soak your tulle in hot water. Pour a liquid dye mix into the detergent slot. Add hot water to the detergent slot equal to the amount of dye you used. Put in 1 US tbsp (15 ml) of detergent. Add 4 cups (950 ml) of hot salt water after 10 minutes of soaking. Wash your tulle and dye in hot, high water. Run the washing machine with warm water and detergent until the tulle stops bleeding ink. Clean your washing machine before using it again.

To properly recycle food waste, you’ll need to purchase or create a compost container. You can construct homemade containers using fence posts and either wire mesh siding or lattice. The container should be square or round and have an open bottom. Professional compost containers come in two forms:  Compost bins, large containers that look similar to trash cans. These are small and cheap, but open at the bottom, making it difficult to turn compost. Compost tumblers, rotating cylinders that, though expensive, are easy to turn and incredibly effective. To help it compost successfully, it’s important to keep food waste at an internal temperature of at least 135 °F (57 °C). To achieve this, place your compost container in an area where it can experience direct sunlight. If it does not have a built-in cover, place a slab of wood or tarp on top to pack in heat. If your compost container has an open base, set it on a patch of soil. This allows your waste to drain properly and gives insects and microbes a chance to break down the materials. If possible, do not put your bin on paving or decking. To prevent vermin from getting into your compost, dig a 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep hole beneath your container and cover it with wire mesh. When filling your compost container, try to make even layers of green, quick rotting foods and brown, slow rotting foods. When the container is full, each type of material should make up about 50% of the total compost mixture. Examples of proper materials include:  Green items like fruit peels and pulp, vegetable peels and pulp, tea leaves and bags, coffee grounds, and carrot tops. Brown items like egg boxes and shells, nuts, tomato plants, corn starch liners, used kitchen paper, and cardboard. Do not compost bones, meat, fish, bread, dairy products, drink cartons, olive oil, plastic bags, or plastic bottles. Food waste needs oxygen to decompose. To make sure all your waste gets an equal amount of air exposure, use a pitchfork to turn over your compost every few weeks. If using a tumbler, you can...

TL;DR in English: Get a compost container. Cover your container and set it in a sunny spot. Set open-bottomed containers on soil. Layer your bin with green and brown materials. Turn your compost every two to four weeks. Water your compost bin if necessary. Wait 1 year for your food to compost. Add your compost to soil.

Prop it up against a wall or a chair lined with a towel. Some area that you're not concerned about getting messy. Choose a size of canvas that you think you can cover with the amount of crayons you have. That was a lot quicker than blow drying, huh? If you think your glue gun is salvageable, insert a regular glue stick and work through until what comes out is clear and glue-y and no longer colored and waxy. If you aren't happy with a section of your painting, with this method it's very easy to go back and redo (or add to) an area.

Pour club soda into the pot or pan before it cools. After a 15-minute soak, scrub the pot with a dish sponge or washcloth. Dump the club soda.

Besides taking up hard disk space, old programs may still be running processes in the back, even if you never use them. This is especially true of old antivirus programs or other utilities. New computers often come with programs pre-installed. Many of these are trials that need to be purchased in order to be used. If you don’t intend to use these programs, remove them to free up space. Select Control Panel, and then click “Uninstall a program” under the Programs section. If you are using Classic View, open Programs and Features. This will open a list of the programs installed on your computer. Depending on how many programs you have installed, it could take several minutes for the list to fully populate. In the menu bar, an Uninstall/Change button will appear. Click it to begin the uninstall process. Each program has a slightly different uninstall method, but most are automated.  There are also several free software such as Revo and Advanced Uninstaller which deep clean traces from the Registry which are not removed by the built-in Windows software.

TL;DR in English: Uninstall unused programs. Open the Start menu. Select the program you wish to uninstall.

The cast page is commonly the second page in a small playbill. Its purpose is to list the names of the players and the names of their characters. Names of the actors are typically listed on the left side of the page, and character names are listed on the right side. If you don’t know this information yourself, you’ll need to find out. Ask the play’s director or casting manager for the list of actor names and the names of the corresponding characters.  The top of the page can simply read “Cast” or “Players.” Beneath this, it’s common to include a line stating “(in order of appearance),” “(in order of speaking),” or “(in alphabetical order),” according to the director’s preference. The Cast Page can be complex, if the director adds or removes extras or inevitable spelling errors crop up. Start working on this page early in the design process. In order to help audience members follow along with the action of the play, it’s common to include a scene list in the playbill. This page is typically structured like an outline: list the numbers or names of scenes, and within each scene, specify the number and name of each individual act, along with any musical numbers. The list of acts and scenes (and musical numbers) may take up two pages, if you’re creating a playbill for a longer play, or one with many acts. Typically, playbills will provide the audience with the names of all the characters who perform in a certain song or musical number. Under “Act 1” and “Scene 1,” list all of the songs vertically. On the right side of the page, list the character names. For example, for a production of Annie Get Your Gun, list “Annie Oakley and Frank Butler” across from a song in which only those two characters perform. If the director requests, include a very brief description of the plot within each act to help the audience follow the action. The playbill could provide a more detailed plot summary, if you’re concerned that your audience members may become confused about which character is which. For example, if you’re creating a...

TL;DR in English: Fill out the Cast Page. Create a list of acts and scenes. List ensemble members within each song. Provide a brief plot summary for each act. Add a page crediting the crew. Add a “Credits” or “Thank You” page.

Set the barbell on the ground. Stand so that your shins (not your toes) are about 6 to 10 inches (15 to 25 cm) away from it. Set both feet directly below their corresponding shoulders. Bend your knees a little bit. As you do, make sure your shins remain perpendicular to the floor. Now bend over from your waist until your upper torso is more or less parallel with the ground. Keep your chest up as you bend over, so that your back is as straight as it should be when standing upright with good posture. Squat until your hands are able to reach the barbell. Take hold of it with an overhand grip (also known as “pronated”), so that your palms face downward toward the floor or inward toward you. Spread your hands apart so they are a just a tad wider than your shoulders. Now straighten your hips and knees, lifting with your legs, until they are back in your starting position. Keep your arms straight held straight down as you rise. First, draw in a breath. Then, without moving your legs or upper body out of position, pull the barbell with your forearms toward your lower chest. Exhale as you do so. As you lift, bring your elbows up and behind your torso, rather than sticking them out to your sides like wings. When the barbell reaches your torso, use the muscles in your shoulder blades to finish drawing it up the rest of the way. Continue holding the barbell to your chest for a second or two once you reach the top of your lift. Then draw in a breath and reverse the motion. Carefully lower the weight back to your starting position (not the floor). Don’t hand it over to gravity and let it drop. Use as much control over the lowering of the barbell as you used when raising it.

TL;DR in English: Get into position. Get ready to lift. Execute a row. Finish your row.

This works especially well for cast iron. The effervescence of the soda reacts with the iron, making the sides slick and difficult to stick to. Do not dump the soda out of the pot. Instead, submerge the sponge beneath the club soda and scrub the pot while the soda is still inside. Wipe out any remaining flakes of caramel with a dry paper towel.

Pessimism tends to come from negative beliefs or thought patterns. When you’re feeling pessimistic, take a step back from your emotions and think about where your feelings are coming from.  If you find that you’re holding onto self-defeating ideas or a negative self-image, remind yourself that these ideas aren’t rational and they don’t have to hold you back. Make sure that you are surrounding yourself with optimistic people as well. You can meet new like-minded people by searching for groups on sites like Meetup.com. When you start having pessimistic thoughts, ask yourself, “Is this really true?” Often you’ll find that pessimism is driven by emotions that don’t have much to do with reality. Maintaining a rational mindset can help you see these thoughts for the illusions they are. For instance, if you have the pessimistic feeling that one of your coworkers doesn’t like you, instead of dwelling on the thought, ask yourself why you think that. Is there a more likely explanation? Perhaps your coworker is having a bad day, or they simply have a gruff demeanor. When you’re feeling pessimistic, it’s easy to see all the negative in your life and forget to look at the positive. Remind yourself of the good things you’ve achieved in the past to guide yourself back into a better state of mind. As much as you need to, bring to mind all the accomplishments you have achieved and all the obstacles you have already overcome in your life. Pay yourself on the back for graduating college. Give yourself a round of applause for finally detaching from your toxic best friend. All-or-nothing thinking can easily put you in a negative state of mind because it views any mistake, even a minor one, as a failure. In reality, no one and nothing is perfect.   For example, all-or-nothing thinkers may view others as “either you love me or you hate me,” when, in truth, it’s entirely possible to love someone but not like all their habits or qualities. Identify areas of your thinking that match this framework and challenge how realistic they...

TL;DR in English: Re-examine your beliefs. Use logic to fight negative thoughts. Remember your successes. Avoid all-or-nothing thinking. Reach out for support.

The underhand French braid is a protective hairstyle for natural, ethnic, or textured hair, but people with other hair types can wear them, too. Comb your hair gently with a wide-toothed comb, and use cream or detangler as needed. This style works create with kanekalon extensions. If you wish to add extensions for length and volume, be sure to separate them out ahead of time.

TL;DR in English: Comb your hair until it is free of knots and tangles.

This means that you will need to practice chanting regularly. After chanting regularly for a prolonged period of time, it will become easier to stay focused even in the midst of distraction.  Chanting is a unique form of worship in that it requires no previous sense of inspiration. You do not need to perfect it or feel moved before engaging in it. You only need to commit to starting it. In this sense, chanting is a devotional practice. Even if the words do not inspire you as you begin to speak them, you are offering a heartfelt prayer through the words and through the discipline you display in reciting them. Auto suggestions are ideas you plant deep within your consciousness to help guide your subconscious thoughts and behaviors.  Your autosuggestion could be something as straightforward as, "When I think useless thoughts, I will become aware of it and refocus on chanting." After chanting for several minutes, repeat your autosuggestion five times in a row. You can either recite it in the middle of your chants or wait until you finish a full period of chanting. There is no rule saying that you can only chant when you have perfect peace and quiet. In fact, taking a few minutes in the midst of your busy day to recite a chant can help clarify your mind, heart, and spirit. It is often easiest to repeat a chant during your daily activities when that chant is one you have already used during a time of focused meditation.

TL;DR in English: Treat chanting as a spiritual discipline. Repeat an autosuggestion after chanting sessions. Chant silently throughout the day.

You can use homemade rosewater or store-bought rosewater. Place a funnel into the neck of the bottle first, then pour the rosewater in. Rosewater is great for moisturizing and toning your skin as well as treating acne. You can use store-bought lemon juice, but freshly-squeeze juice would be much better. If you are using freshly-squeezed lemon juice, be sure to strain it first so that you don't get any seeds or pulp. Lemon juice is great for treating acne and blackheads. It can also help brighten your skin. Your facial cleanser is now complete and ready to use! The warm water will help open up the pores on your skin and make the cleanser more effective. Open up your bottle of lemon-rosewater. Hold a cotton ball over the opening, then turn it upside-down and right-side up quickly. Pull the cotton ball upwards rather than downwards. Start at your neck and work your way up to your chin using short, gently strokes. Replace the cotton ball as needed; plan on using about 4 or 5. Rinse it off with warm water first, then splash your face with cool water to seal the pores. Pat your face dry with a soft, clean towel, then follow up with your usual moisturizer. You can use this as a toner as well.

TL;DR in English: Fill a small, glass bottle half-way with rosewater. Fill the bottle the rest of the way with lemon juice. Close the bottle, then shake it to mix the two together. Dampen your face with warm water. Dampen a cotton ball with the lemon-rosewater  face wash. Wipe your face with the cotton ball. Rinse the face wash off.

Tempera paint or finger paint would work the best. For easier clean up, mix a few drops of liquid dish soap into the paint. If you will be making these on paper, consider using a green ink pad instead. Make the next print a little bit above and to the side of the first print. Be mindful about the left and right placement. Remember: the edge of your palm will make the outer edge of the foot. Consider working your way backwards rather than forwards. This way, you won't risk accidentally smearing the paint as it dries. Most tempera and finger paints dry quickly. They should be ready within half an hour, at most.
