Opt for the affirmative imperative. Switch to the negative imperative.

You may see large open wounds or pieces of bone that have broken your skin and are sticking out of your skin. These are signs of a severe fracture, known as a compound fracture. If you have these symptoms, you should seek immediate medical attention.As well, if there a lot of blood coming from an open wound on your finger, you should see a doctor. If part of your finger is pointing in a different direction, the bone is probably broken or dislocated. A dislocated finger occurs when the bone has moved out of position and usually looks deformed at a joint, such as your knuckle. You should see a doctor if you have a dislocated finger.  There are three bones in each of your fingers and they are all arranged in the same manner. The first bone is the proximal phalanx, the second bone is the middle phalanx, and the bone farthest from your hand is the distal phalanx. Because your thumb is the shortest finger, it does not have a middle phalanx. Your knuckles are joints formed by the bones of your fingers. Often, you break your finger at the knuckles, or the joints.  Breaks at the base of your finger (the distal phalanx) are usually easier to treat than fractures at your joints or knuckles. If your finger is not deformed or bruised, and the pain and swelling eventually subside, you may have just sprained your finger. A sprain means you have stretched the ligaments, which are the bands of tissue that hold the bones in your finger together at the joint. If you think you have a sprained finger, avoid using the finger. Check to see if the pain and swelling gets better over the next day or two. If the pain and swelling does not go away, you should get medical treatment to confirm the finger is only sprained and not fractured or broken. A physical and x-rays will determine this.

TL;DR in English: Examine your finger for any exposed cuts or bones. Check if your finger looks deformed. Note if the pain and swelling goes down after a couple of hours.

Oil diffusers will release a fine mist of water to diffuse the oils around your room. Place your diffuser near the center of your chosen room to let the oil distribute evenly around the space. Keep it on a flat surface to prevent anything from spilling or falling over while your diffuser is running.  Put a towel down underneath the diffuser to catch any excess water while the diffuser runs. If the towel remains dry after the first few times using it, it probably isn’t needed. You’ll also need a power outlet nearby if your diffuser needs to be plugged in. While it may differ slightly between different types of diffusers, most will have a top casing that can be lifted off to reveal the reservoir. Try rotating, popping, or even just lifting the top of your diffuser to open it and get access to the internal water tank.  If you’re unsure how to open your diffuser, check the manufacturer's guide for instructions specific to your diffuser. Some diffusers may have two tops that need to be removed to access the reservoir. One will normally be decorative, where the other is used to trap excess moisture. If you remove the top of your diffuser and see another casing instead of a tank, remove this interior casing as well. Fill a small measuring cup or glass with water that is around room temperature, or below your body temperature. Carefully pour the water into the reservoir or internal tank of your diffuser. Check for a line or marking on the inside of the tank to indicate how much water you should pour into the tank.  Rather than a line or marker, some diffusers may come with a measuring jug that holds exactly the right amount of water for the reservoir. Fill this up with water and pour it into the tank. Room temperature is around 69 °F (21 °C). Put a finger in the water to test it, looking for water that is slightly cool but not cold. Unscrew the cap on your chosen essential oil and tilt it directly over the water reservoir. You may need to slightly shake it, but drops of oils should begin falling into the water. Let...

TL;DR in English: Place your diffuser near the middle of the room. Lift the top off of your diffuser. Fill the diffuser with room temperature water. Add 3 to 10 drops of essential oils to your diffuser. Replace the top of your diffuser and turn it on.

Sometimes other people don’t always see how much time and energy goes into helping them. Instead of thinking about what you’ve done, think about what your customers or coworkers can actually see. Are they able to see how much work you’ve done to help them?  If people don’t know what you’ve done to help, they can’t be expected to show their appreciation. Sometimes it’s part of any role that you have to put in effort without seeing immediate reward. For example, you may have spent the morning putting out all new inventory, but a customer who just walked in wouldn't know that. When they ask if you have other sizes in the back, let them know, "I put out everything we have this morning. Would you like me to help you look for your size on the sales floor?" Looking at things from someone else’s perspective can also help you see when something isn’t really about you. A customer in a store, for example, might be cranky because their kid has been crying all morning.   People also have a tendency to shoot the messenger. If you are relaying information that upsets them, but that is out of your control, they may get even more upset with you. That doesn't mean you did anything wrong. This is an especially common tendency with ungrateful bosses and managers. They often project their own feelings of inferiority or criticisms directed at them onto their team. In those cases, it's often best to let your work speak for you rather than demanding gratitude.  While it's not necessarily fair that they are taking their frustrations out on you, there's nothing you could have done differently to change their attitude. Whether it's your boss, a coworker or a customer, dealing with an ungrateful person in the workplace can be incredibly frustrating. Getting angry or losing your temper with that person will only make things worse, though. Take a deep breath, and let your rage go as you exhale. You can still be frustrated internally, but try to avoid an emotional outburst. If the person is constantly pushing your buttons or won’t let a...

TL;DR in English: Look at the situation from their perspective. Consider whether there are other factors making someone upset. Stay calm. Prepare for their negative attitude. Practice kindness even when it’s difficult.

Write down your ideas in a notebook. Some basics to bear in mind include:  Whether they’re geared toward children or adults, most great stories share a few basic elements: The main character, supporting characters, an interesting setting and a plot that includes a central conflict, trouble brewing, a climax, and a resolution. For non-fiction or informational works: The book needs to inform the reader about history, people, events, real things or how-to instructions. Picture books: These require a lot of illustration, usually in full color, which can make printing more expensive. Text is limited but needs to be both good and original––there is quite an art to limiting words and still putting across and excellent story. Many children’s books include a positive message, ranging from simple standards, like “share with others,” to more complex life lessons on topics like handling the death of a loved one or how to think about big issues like caring for the environment or respecting other cultures. It isn’t necessary to include a straightforward message, so don’t force it––if you do, your lesson may come off as heavy-handed, which won’t be appealing to kids. If writing fiction, this is your chance to write something silly, strange, nerdy, dreamy, fantastical. What inspired you as a child? Go there, explore those ideas. This doesn’t mean you should throw in something wacky for no good reason, though. Tap into feelings that are sincere and actions that make sense for your character. Readers can immediately pick up on writing that seems false, and that’s when they put down the book. And if writing non-fiction, this is your chance to share your knowledge and research with future generations of chefs, engineers, and artists! Importantly, be creative but also accurate––it's a fine balance between keeping it light and still ensuring that the content is fact-checked thoroughly and understandable or doable by children. Consider pitching the idea to a child, like a niece or nephew, cousin, or the child of a close friend....

TL;DR in English: Decide on the main components of your story. Consider incorporating a message for fiction works. Be creative.

Use the affirmative imperative form of leer to issue a command instructing someone to read something.  Note that there is no imperative conjugation for the singular first person "yo," or "I" in English, because you cannot issue a command to yourself. Example: "Read the newspaper," Lee el periódico.  tú: lee él/ella/usted: lea nosotros/-as: leamos vosotros/-as: leed ellos/ellas/ustedes: lean When you need to tell or command someone to not read something, you would use the negative imperative, which differs from the affirmative imperative.  Note that there is no imperative conjugation for the singular first person "yo," or "I" in English, because you cannot issue a command to yourself. Example: "Do not read the newspaper," No leas el periódico.  tú: no leas  él/ella/usted: no lea nosotros/-as: no leamos vosotros/-as: no leáis ellos/ellas/ustedes: no lean

The blank page may seem daunting, but you have to start somewhere. You’ve brainstormed topics, honed your power of description, and thought of a compelling message. Now it’s time to sit down and write your story.  Choose a distraction-free time and place and work on your story for at least 30 minutes a day. It’s okay if your words seem forced at first. As you write more, you’ll build the connection between your mind and hands, and engaging the keyboard or pen and paper will start to feel automatic.  Note that doing free-writing exercises is different from writing your story. You can still write freely on any topic for 15 minutes a day, but set aside at least 30 minutes to write your story with focus. Whether you’re crafting a first person nonfiction narrative or a third person work of fiction, keep your point of view and language consistent. Develop a clear idea of who your narrator is, why they’re telling the story, and what they have at stake. Even if you're writing a personal narrative from your own point of view, ask these questions of yourself.  Keep in mind your narrator doesn’t need to be correct, truthful, or moral. An unreliable or immoral narrator can be an effective way to engage the reader. For instance, the narrator could have committed heinous crimes in the story, but wins the reader with their charm. The reader identifies with the narrator, and when they learn the extent of the narrator’s deeds, they examine their own morality. Rather than list events, develop your settings and characters with specific, interesting details. Situate the reader in a specific place, and help them form a clear picture of your narrative’s world.  Be descriptive, but try not to overwhelm the reader with details. Spelling out every breath a character takes or describing every speck of a room makes for tedious reading. Zero in on key details and, whenever possible, make them relevant to the story. For instance, suppose a character in your narrative is indecisive, and their inability to make decisions ultimately leads...

TL;DR in English: Set aside time to write every day. Narrate your story with a consistent voice. Show the reader concrete details instead of summarizing events. Structure your narrative with a beginning, middle, and end. Build the story toward a climax or pivotal moment.

While you can't lose weight from one part of your body specifically, losing weight from your entire body will also lower the amount of fat in your thighs. If you have good underlying muscle tone, this should leave you with slimmer, firmer thighs. Your first step should be to start keeping track of how many calories you eat per day — you may be surprised how quickly they can pile up. Calorie counters can be a huge help here. These handy online programs allow you to input the food you eat each day to get an accurate count for your calorie intake, then input your height, weight, sex, and exercise level to figure out how many calories you've burnt. Great calorie counters are available at Fatsecret.com, Myfitnesspal.com, and more.There are even calorie counter apps available for download to mobile devices. Once you know how many calories you're eating each day, losing weight is simple (though often not easy.) As long as you eat fewer calories than you burn during the day, you will lose weight — it's just a matter of time. The greater the gap between the calories you intake and the calories you expend, the quicker you'll lose weight. Note, however, that any diet that leaves you unbearably hungry or unable to function is not a healthy one. In general, one pound of body mass is equal to about 3,500 calories. Losing this many calories is more or less equal to losing one pound. In other words, if you have a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day, you'll lose about a pound per week because 500 × 7 = 3,500. Going on a diet doesn't mean starving your body of the things it needs to function. In fact, since you're eating less than you normally would, it's extra important to eat healthy so that your body gets adequate nutrition. As you stick to your diet, remember that you're aiming to skimp on calories, not nutrients, and plan your meals accordingly.  This means that high-calorie, low-nutrient foods (like processed foods, sweets, greasy snack foods, and so on) should be the first things to go. In fact, if you tend to...

TL;DR in English: Monitor your daily calorie intake. Shoot to consistently spend more calories each day than you take in. Ensure that the food you do eat is nutritious. Give yourself the occasional "break. Don't have unhealthy weight-loss habits.

If you don't have a history of heart disease, you'll need to have blood work done annually to determine if your cholesterol is in a normal range. Keep in mind that regular screenings are important as you age since cholesterol levels usually increase due to lifestyle changes and decreased activity levels as you get older.  Your cholesterol level will appear as 3 numbers: your high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and triglycerides. If you do have a history of heart disease, your doctor will recommend that you get your cholesterol checked more frequently. To screen your cholesterol, you'll need to get a blood sample that's analyzed in a lab. You've probably heard LDL referred to as "bad" or "lousy" cholesterol because high levels can slowly block the arteries. Check the LDL level from your cholesterol screening and see where it falls on this range:  Less than 100 md/dL: optimum 100 to 129 md/dL: fairly good 130 to 159 md/dL: borderline high 160 to 189 md/dL: high 190+ md/dL: very high HDL is known as the good cholesterol because it helps maintain bone and joint function. It can also help reduce the buildup of LDL cholesterol in the arteries. Determine where your HDL level falls on this range:  60+ mg/dL: optimum Less than 40 mg/dL in men: major risk Less than 50 mg/dL in women: major risk Triglycerides are one of the most common types of fat in the body, comprised of both lipid fats and sugar, and they're found in your blood. If you have too many triglycerides in your blood, you're at an increased risk for heart disease, diabetes, and metabolic syndrome. If your triglyceride level is 150 mg/dL or higher, talk with your doctor about lowering it. If your doctor believes that your cholesterol levels are high and you have or are at risk for heart disease, the doctor may prescribe medication to quickly lower your cholesterol. Follow your doctor's treatment plan and get your levels checked again to determine that the medication is working. If you're going through menopause and your...

TL;DR in English: Schedule an annual cholesterol screening. Check your low-density lipoprotein (LDL) level. Learn your high-density lipoprotein (HDL) level. Check your triglycerides. Talk with your doctor about taking cholesterol-lowering medication.

This drum is made from a cardboard carpet tube with a plastic flower pot stacked on top. You can get a cardboard carpet tube free from any carpet store.  The carpet tube should be three to four inches in diameter. The bottom of the flower pot should be four inches in diameter. You need thick, pliable plastic material to make the head of this drum. A beach ball works perfect, but any thick and flexible plastic material will work. A balloon is too thin.

Don't touch your eyes. Take out any contact lenses. Know how long the symptoms might last.

If you need to stop quickly, lift off your seat and drive your back foot down while lifting your front foot up. Lift up on your toe clips while leaning forward slightly so that the back wheel lifts off the ground. This is called a skip-stop and is effective at quickly reducing your speed.  You might have to skip multiple times to come to a complete stop. Do not lean too far forward when trying this stop or you may fall off your bike. A skid stop is similar to a skip-stop except your back wheel stays on the ground and skids. To skid stop, lift off of your seat, adjust your weight toward the front of the bike, and press down on your back pedal while pushing up on your forward pedal. This will cause your back wheel to stop and skid along the ground. Skid stopping will weaken the rubber on your tires so don't use it all the time. Slow down until you almost come to a complete stop. Lift off of the seat, turn the wheel to the same side as your lead food, and apply downward pressure on the pedal with your back foot. Do your best to keep the pedals horizontal. Try to balance in this stance without unclipping your foot and putting it on the ground. A track stand is perfect to use when you have to come to a momentary stop and don't want to unclip your foot. If you feel like you're losing your balance, unclip your foot and place it flat on the ground instead.

TL;DR in English: Backpedal and lift up your back wheel to skip stop. Backpedal while moving quickly to skid stop. Perform a track stand.

Hold onto the discus with one hand. Place your palm down on the top of the discus so that it is facing the ground. Then spread out your fingers along the outer edge of the discus so they are evenly spaced.   This may go without saying, but if you are right handed, use your right hand. Left-handed throwers will use their left hand. Don’t grip the discus too tightly. Your fingers should not wrap all the way around the edge of the discus. This will make it easier to throw. Use your free hand to support the bottom of the discus until you are ready to throw. However, throwing with both hands is considered a foul. Maintain the position of the discus in your right hand so it is face down, with your other hand supporting the bottom. Remember to remove your bottom hand before you start your throw. Swinging the arm that is holding the discus and then spinning your body around will help you to gain momentum for the throw. The more momentum you can build, the better. Most discus throwers spin around one and a half times before releasing the discus. Some throwers, though, prefer to keep their feet stationary. It may feel natural to lead with your left arm, but resist this urge. Lead with your right leg. As you do, drive with your left leg. Keep the discus at shoulder level, your body leaning forward, and your eyes up mid-spin.  You should pick up your right foot to step before your shoulder passes over it. Try to keep your right shoulder behind your right hip. To keep your left arm in position during this part of the throw, hold it above your left leg as though you’re reading the time. As your left foot sweeps through the last part of the turn (between 6:00 and 5:00), your arm should stall the discus at about 4:30. At this point, the discus should be at least head height. On the final arc of your spin, ground your left foot in the direction you are throwing. Your right foot will continue to pivot, adding momentum. When the disc is directly opposite the release point, lower your left heel. At the start of the final...

TL;DR in English: Grip the discus with one hand. Extend your right arm. Swing your arm and spin your body. Watch your body position in the spin, if applicable. Carry momentum through to the release. Release the disc. Find your markings. Exit the ring after you finish throwing.

The longer a stain is allowed to sit on your nice tablecloth or summer dress, the harder it will be to get out. Whether a stain is from food or ink or anything else, drawing it out from linens will work best when it hasn't yet dried.  Some older stains require dry cleaning to be removed. Dry cleaning can ruin linens so it’s imperative that you try and treat stains quickly so that you don’t have to resort to harsher methods to remove the stain. Use a flat butter knife or spoon to gently lift off any residue. For example, jelly can be scooped up with a spoon so that there’s less of a mess to clean up. You want to remove as much of the substance as possible before beginning to treat the stain.  Do not squeeze or press the linen or stain. Doing so may grind the stain substance into the fibers of the linen and make it harder to get out. You can gently shake off residual liquids like wine or juice instead of wringing them out. Gently dab up and down with a paper towel, for example, to lift the stain from your linens to the towel. Work from the outside of the stain’s perimeter to the inside. This will prevent the pressure of blotting from spreading the stain. For best results, use a specific product for removing stains rather than regular soap. A chemical reaction is an efficient way of removing stains from your linens. Lay out your linen and place a few paper towels or rag clothes underneath to catch excess liquid.  Sprinkle baking soda on the stain and add a few drops at a time of vinegar. Blot the stain with a paper towel to soak up the moisture. Lemon juice will help whiten any dingy materials. Squeeze some juice onto a stain or discolored linen item and let it sit until you see it begin to lighten, and then rinse it out. You can also buy a stain treatment to apply to the stain like Tide or Oxyclean. Don't even rub a stain. Rubbing and applying too much pressure will help a stain to set into the linen rather than get it out. Let the faucet run long enough to fill a sink, bathtub, or washing machine with enough...

TL;DR in English: Act quickly to clean the stain. Scrape off excess liquid or solids. Blot the stain with a white cloth or towel. Apply a chemical solution to the stain. Fill a sink with hot water. Add another cleanser to the water. Submerge your linen items in the sink. Drain the sink and wash your linen items normally. Hang to dry.

Days and weeks after, see whether or not you are becoming closer as a couple.  Make sure that what you told him is not effecting the relationship in a negative way.  After sharing an intimate moment with one another, often times there is a desire to not reengage the topic right away.  This is perfectly natural.  However, your boyfriend should always be open to talking again in the future. Look for any signs such as physical contact, your boyfriend giving you gifts, or the use of sweet, soft language.  These can often be signs of a boyfriend who understands what he heard, has taken it to heart, and wants to show you that he cares about you. Occasionally bring up the topic again in passing.  See whether or not your boyfriend is squeamish, or wants to hear what you have to say. Sometimes boyfriends are not very emotionally open.  This is normal, but something that needs to be worked on.  If you were not able to convince your boyfriend to have a shared moment with you, persist in asking him.  It can never hurt to simply keep asking.  A healthy relationship is built on openness, so eventually it is critical for you to reveal your past to him. Some men simply will not listen, or wish to talk.  While that might be easy for them, it is not healthy for your relationship.  Leaving notes in the home, or in his vehicle can demonstrate how serious this is for you.  Talking to someone else, and getting them to ask him to talk with you can also help. After a period of time has gone by, talk about your memories a second or third time.  With time passing by, it can become easier to release more intimate details or circumstances you would not have before   Often times the first time sharing can be very emotional.  Shyness, or crying can ensue which might interfere with what you have to say.  Reengaging at another point in time should tamper down some of those more obvious emotions/reactions. Feel free to release more information.  The details might not have all been released at the start, or you might have shied away from...

TL;DR in English: Observe your boyfriend's reaction and emotional response. State clearly that talking about your past is important to you. Talk about your past experiences again. Engage in other topics about you and your boyfriend's pasts. Make sure that you and your boyfriend are getting closer.

Pepper spray is an oil-based substance which causes severe irritation to your eyes and skin. If you get pepper spray in your eyes, resist the temptation to touch your face or rub your eyes. Touching your face will just spread the oil around and increase the affected area.  Don't touch your face, but do tear up your eyes by blinking a lot. Blinking produces liquid that helps start the process of flushing the spray residue from your eyes. If you are wearing contact lenses when you get pepper spray in your eyes, take these out immediately. The spray residues will stick to the lenses and continue to irritate your eyes. Throw the lenses away. Even cleaning them will not remove the residue.  After taking out your lenses, submerge your face in cool, clean water. Open and close your eyes underwater several times. Even if you manage to flush out your eyes, the symptoms may persist. Irritation to the eyes can continue anywhere from 30 minutes to over two hours. Inflammation of the throat lining can also cause breathing difficulties for up to an hour.  If your symptoms are particularly severe or last longer than this, you should go to a hospital or walk-in centre. If you have asthma, pepper spray can cause serious breathing difficulties and you should get emergency medical treatment.

TL;DR in English:


Take Ibuprofen. Drink a lot of water Eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. Drink vinegar. Drink gelatin. Use herbal remedies. Use menstrual cups to hide your period.

Unwrap the dough first, then lightly flour a flat, smooth surface. Place the dough onto the surface. This will be big enough for a 9 inch (22.86 centimeters) pie pan. You are making the crust larger so that it can fit inside the pan. If the dough is too hard, wait 10 to 15 minutes so that it can soften up. Gently press the bottom of the dough until it lays flat against the bottom of the pie pan. Run your finger around the inside edges, so that the dough fits into the corners. Use your finger to gently press the top edges of the dough against the rim of the pie pan. If the edges stick out beyond the rim, tuck them under each other. Do not tuck the excess dough under the rim itself. Consider putting a fancy edge on the crust. You can do this simply by pinching the dough all around the rim, or making shallow indents with a fork. The tiny holes will help the dough lay flat as it bakes. This will help the pie crust keep its shape while you bake it. If you don't have parchment paper, you can use a sheet of aluminum foil instead. If you can't find pie weights you can use dried beans or rice. Place it into the oven and let it bake for 20 minutes. Then, take it out of the oven, pull out the parchment paper/aluminum foil and weights. Place the pie crust back into the oven and back it for another 15 to 20 minutes. It is done when it is golden brown on the bottom. The pie crust should be cool before you add the banana cream filling. Do not take the crust out of the pan.

TL;DR in English: Pre-heat the oven to 375°F (190.56°C). Take the dough out of the fridge and roll it out into a disk on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough out to a 11 to 12 inch (27.94 to 30.48 centimeters) circle. Ease the dough into a  9 inch (22.86 centimeters) pie pan. Fold the top edges of the dough under. Prick the bottom of the dough a few times with a fork. Line the crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights. Bake the pie crust. Take the pie crust out of the oven, and let it cool in the pan.

Often, the tire width will be printed along with other measurements. In most countries, the tire width is printed in millimeters or meters. The tire width number is usually printed directly following a capitalized "P." If your tire width is 1.75 metres (69 in), for example, the width number will usually be written as "P175." If you can't find a tire width number on the sidewall, calculate it on your own.The tire width is measured from endpoint to endpoint. If your tire is not connected to your car, stand it vertically while you measure. Take your measuring tape, and record the measurement you get from one end of the tire to the other. Prop your tire against a straight object if it does not stand up on its own. The tire aspect ratio is the ratio of the tire height divided by the tire width. On a tire sidewall, the aspect ratio will generally be written after a backslash ("/").  Aspect ratios are written in percentages. If your aspect ratio is 65%, for example, the number will likely be written as "/65." Calculate aspect ratio manually if the number is not contained on the sidewall. When you've divided and come to a number, convert that number from a decimal to a percentage. This is your aspect ratio number. If your width is 4 inches (10.2 cm) and your diameter is 24 inches (61 cm), for example, then your aspect ratio is 60%.  Make sure you calculated the diameter and width in the same measurement system (e.g. inches or meters) before you calculate the aspect ratio. Use this online aspect ratio calculator as an alternative: https://www.calculator.net/ratio-calculator.html

TL;DR in English: Check for the tire width along its sidewall. Measure your tire width from one end of the tire to the other. Check for the aspect ratio along the sidewall as well. Divide your width by your diameter to calculate aspect ratio.

Before you begin CPR, you should check the baby's mouth to see if the object they were choking on has become dislodged. Lie the baby on their back, on a firm, flat surface.  Use your hand to open the baby's mouth and look inside. If you see something, remove it using your baby finger. Even if you can't see anything, proceed to the next step. You can do this by using one hand to tilt the baby's head back slightly and the other to lift their chin. Don't tilt their head back too far, it takes very little to open a small baby's airway. Before proceeding with CPR, you should check to ensure the baby is not breathing. You can do this by placing your cheek very close to the baby's mouth, looking towards their body.  If they are breathing, you should be able to see their chest rising and falling slightly. In addition, you may be able to hear breathing noises and feel their breath on your cheek. Once you have confirmed that the baby is not breathing, you can begin CPR. Begin by covering their mouth and nose with your own mouth and blow two small rescue breaths gently into their lungs.  Each breath should last for about a second and you should see the baby's chest rise as the air goes in. Pause between breaths to allow the air to escape.  Remember that a baby's lungs are very small, so you shouldn't blow too much air or blow too forcefully. Once you have performed the rescue breaths, leave the baby lying on her back and use the same technique you used earlier for the chest thrusts - that is, using two or three fingers to firmly compress the baby's chest by about 1 1⁄2 inches (3.8 cm).  Press straight down on the baby's breastbone, in the center of the baby's chest, slightly below the nipples. The chest compressions should be performed at a rate of 100 compressions per minute. This means that you should be able to get through the thirty recommended compressions, in addition to the two rescue breaths, in approximately 24 seconds. Repeat this cycle of two rescue breaths, followed by thirty chest compressions, until the...

TL;DR in English: Check the baby's mouth for an object. Open the baby's airway. Check if the baby is breathing. Give the baby two rescue breaths. Perform thirty chest compressions. Give another two rescue breaths followed by thirty chest compressions and repeat for as long as necessary.

Now might be a good time to examine the ingredients on your hair product bottles. Commercial shampoos, conditioners, and styling products contain a lot of chemicals that make hair look good in the short term, but dry it out and damage it in the long term. Choosing healthier products will prevent your hair from getting dull and dry while its growing out.   Don't use shampoo that has sulfates. These industrial cleansers are the same chemicals used in dishwashing detergent, and they do a number on your hair. Get shampoo that is labeled "sulfate-free" or  make your own shampoo. Don't use conditioner and styling products that contain silicone. These build up in you hair, initially adding shine but eventually making it look dull. They can only be washed out with sulfate-containing shampoo, so it's best to avoid them, too. Don't get a Brazilian blowout or use other permanent chemical-based treatments. Don't dye or bleach your hair while you're trying to grow it out. Eating a healthy diet and staying hydrated can help your hair grow in thicker and glossier, which is a plus when you're trying to grow it out.  Drink 8 glasses of water a day. Avoid drinking liquids that make you dehydrated. Get plenty of vitamin B. Found in fruits, vegetables and nuts, this vitamin helps keep hair thick and strong. Eat lots of protein. This is the building block for hair, so you need a lot of it. Eat meat, fish, legumes, and leafy greens. Get your omega-3s. These "good" fats keep your hair glossy. Eat salmon, olive oil, nuts, and avocados.

TL;DR in English: Don't use a lot of chemicals on your hair. Eat well and get plenty of water.

Take one dose three or four times a day, being careful not to exceed the maximum dosage for any 24-hour period. For most people, this will help mitigate the pain of a period, and can reduce flow by about 50%. However, some people find that ibuprofen stops their period altogether. While Ibuprofen has very few side effects, it is possible to overdose. Consult your doctor before taking large amounts of ibuprofen or using it for an extended period of time. . This will flush things through your body faster and can help lighten your flow. Eating healthily is always better for you, but consuming more fruits and vegetables than normal can lighten your period and make it easier on you.  Green beans in particular have been shown to help lighten or stop your period. Some people also find that sucking on a piece of lemon can temporarily stop their period. Mix two teaspoons of apple cider vinegar into a cup of water. Drink this home remedy three times a day for best results. Mix a packet of gelatin with water and drink it quickly. This can stop your period for about three hours. Angelica root, tea made from fresh or dried raspberry leaves, lady mantle, garden sage, and shepherd's purse are all thought to help stop or lighten menstruation. Menstrual cups fit just above the cervix and, like tampons, prevent any fluid from escaping. However, where a tampon absorbs blood, a menstrual cup simply catches it. You can leave one in place for up to twelve hours, effectively hiding -- and for all intents and purposes stopping -- your period for that time.

TL;DR in English:


Make sure you have a good understanding of what you're doing. Ask her what she thinks about the situation. Be ready for some anger. If the person is using you, she'll likely deny it and be angry about it. If she feels like she's not using you, she'll likely be angry at the accusation

Tell her how you feel. Have an honest discussion about needs. Be ready for what's ahead.

Instead of just telling someone what to do, try to empower them to make their own choices. Ask them to brainstorm some options with you. Not only will this help you better understand the problem, but it will give that person more ownership over their choices. For example, if they are struggling between two dresses, ask them things like: "What dress do you feel most confident in?" or "Which dress is the most comfortable to wear?" Try not to sound bossy or like a know-it-all. Share your opinion, but make it clear that you believe in their ability to make the final decision. This will help the person feel more confident. For example, you can say, “I know you asked for my advice, but I know that this is a decision you can handle.” Give your advice and follow it up with a supportive statement. You don’t want to pressure anyone into thinking they have to take your advice. Make sure they know that you support whatever choice they make. Say, “I feel like searching for a new job might be in your best interest, but I’m behind you no matter what you decide to do.” Speak from the heart. Make it clear that you care about the person. Use words that are honest and kind. For example, “This is a tough situation and I feel for you. I think it’s probably a good idea to put your dog down, because he is in pain, but I support you no matter what." Remember that whoever asked for your advice trusts you. Make sure that you don’t damage this trust by judging them. When you’re planning what to say, make sure that you use neutral, objective language.  For example, don’t say, “Of course you shouldn’t leave your wife! What are you, stupid?” Instead, you could say, “This is a really personal decision. My advice is that you take some time to examine both your priorities and your emotions.”

TL;DR in English: Help them think through options. Compliment their judgment. Offer support. Be sincere. Avoid judgement.

Take the free end of the string and wrap it around whatever you’re tying the knot to. Pull both sides of the string so that it’s tight against the object. Both ends of the string should point in the same direction and run parallel with each other. If you’re tying the knot to a fishing rod, you’d wrap the string around your spool. Hold the free end of the string or rope and cross it over the string or rope to form a loop at the very end of it. Pull the free end of the string up and through the loop and continue pulling it till it forms a knot. You should now have a small knot at the end of your string or rope. This is what is known as an overhand knot, and is one of the most common knots out there.

TL;DR in English: Wrap the string around whatever you’re tying the knot to. Form a 1 in (2.5 cm) loop at the end of the line. Pull the free end of the string through the loop.

Symptoms such as fatigue, low energy, difficulty with erections, poor libido and decreased muscle strength can be caused by low testosterone; however, there are other disorders that can cause each of these problems. Your doctor can help you figure out what’s going on, and what testing might be helpful. Before you choose to take testosterone therapy, you should get your levels tested at least twice. Doctors generally will not rely on a single test result to decide that a male patient needs testosterone therapy. Testosterone levels vary considerably during the day, and from day to day.  Get tested in the morning. The best time to have blood drawn to test for testosterone may be the morning, especially in younger men.  Make an appointment with your doctor to test your levels. If your levels are close to normal each time they are tested, you probably do not need testosterone treatment. If your levels are close to normal each time they are tested, you probably do not need testosterone treatment. If your levels are low, but you have no symptoms, your doctor probably will not recommend treatment. Most doctors will only treat those who have low testosterone levels and significant symptoms that are likely due to low testosterone. Certain medical conditions can be the cause of low testosterone or present similar symptoms. Thyroid problems and sleep apnea can contribute to low testosterone levels. Depression or excessive alcohol consumption can also lower levels. Generally, treating the underlying condition leads to improved testosterone levels. Some medications can lead to low levels of testosterone. If you take medications and have low levels, talk to your doctor. Discuss whether your medication may be the cause and if there is something you can do to help. Opioid drugs, glucocorticoid, and anabolic steroids can lead to low testosterone levels. Testosterone treatment may increase the risk of certain conditions. You should always talk to your doctor before starting treatment and discuss possible risk factors. Your...

TL;DR in English: Discuss your symptoms with your doctor. Test your levels multiple times before you decide. Discuss test results with your doctor. Treat any underlying conditions. Talk to your doctor about medication side effects. Consider the risks of testosterone treatment. Understand that TRT is controversial.

Grease a 12-count muffin tin with butter, oil, or cooking spray, then set it aside. For smaller cups, use a 24-count mini muffin tin. They are ready when the egg whites turn white and puffy. If you are making mini muffins, reduce the baking time to 15 to 20 minutes. Place the muffin pan on a wire cooling rack, and let the muffin cups cool for about 5 minutes. Run a knife along the inside edge of each cup, then scoop the muffin cup out with a fork. You can serve them with diced avocado, salsa, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs, such as chives.  Allow any leftover muffin cups to cool completely before freezing them; store them in plastic, re-sealable freezer bags. Re-heat frozen muffin cups in the microwave for 45 seconds.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to 350°F (177°C). Bake the muffin cups for 20 to 25 minutes. Allow the muffin cups to cool before removing them from the pan. Garnish the muffin cups, if desired, then serve them.

Think about what you want to say beforehand, and remember to include specific examples of how you think she is using you. Don't be angry or antagonistic. Try to keep the conversation polite and calm. Ask her what she thinks about the situation. Be ready for some anger. If the person is using you, she'll likely deny it and be angry about it. If she feels like she's not using you, she'll likely be angry at the accusation. Ask her what she needs and expects from a relationship. Present what you need and expect from a relationship. Negotiate from there how the relationship can move forward. You can only have one of two outcomes with this situation. Either you will need to work out a way to create a new type of relationship, or you will need to end it altogether.

Plan ahead. Consider cutting the bar in half or into quarters with a knife. Make sure your bathtub is clean, then start filling it with water. Crumble the bar, and hold it under the running tap. Turn off the tap when the tub is full and give the water a swish with your hand. Get into the tub, and relax for 10 to 20 minutes.

Claims that you can learn shorthand in a few hours should be taken with a dose of skepticism. The time it will take you depends on how often you practice, the difficulty of the system, and your goal speed. It may take as long as a year of hard work to really master a useful shorthand. You need to fully absorb the word-building principles first; speed comes from them. Try for at least 45 minutes to an hour, if you can. Remember, though, that even daily short sessions are better than one or two longer ones per week. Start with the alphabet, filling each line of a piece of notebook paper with one letter. Next, you'll move on to words, doing the same thing. When you're ready, you'll move on to common groups of words. Saying the words aloud as you write them helps your brain make the connection between the phonemic sound and the symbol. Shorthand dictations come in different speeds (words per minute), so you can work your way to an increasingly rapid pace.  Practice each speed (30, 40, 50, 60, etc.) until you're comfortable, then move on. If you want to practice as much as possible, put dictations on your MP3 player and practice whenever you have a few extra minutes.

TL;DR in English: Start off with realistic expectations. Prioritize mastery over speed. Practice every day. Drill in stages. Increase speed with dictation exercises.

Use a light pencil line, and erase the lines when the drawing is done. This way you can sketch in lots of light trial lines until you find the right one without messing up your paper.  Alternatively, use a blue pencil which does not show up on scans and copies. Many artists use "col-erase" blue pencils. A model sheet has numerous sketches of a single animation character in various poses and expressions. It is used to standardize the character's appearance when multiple animators are working on a project. Looking at model sheets can help you understand how every figure has a particular construction set-up that serves as a base. Many model sheets are available on the Internet. Gray's Anatomy, for example, is a classic that can help you learn more about the construction of the human body. You can then apply this knowledge to your drawings of various poses.

TL;DR in English: Sketch trial lines very lightly. Study model sheets to see how characters are built. Use anatomy books as reference for human and animal subjects.

First person narrators often have a particular way of seeing the world, which is based on their backstory. Give your first person narrator a narrative voice that is distinct and particular to them. Consider the narrator’s age, class, and background. Use these elements to create the voice of the first person narrator. For example, if your narrator is a Latino teenager who lives in the Bronx, they will have a distinct narrative voice that may use Spanish phrases and teenage slang as well as standard English. With a first person narrator, you want the reader to view the world of the story through their perspective. This means describing scenes, other characters, and settings from the point of the view of the narrator. Try to filter all the action in the story through the first person narrator so the reader gets a sense of their point of view. For example, rather than say, “I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. A killer spider skittered towards me and I thought, I’m dead,” focus on describing the action straight from the viewpoint of the narrator. You may write, “This couldn’t be what I was seeing. A killer spider skittered towards me. I’m dead.” Try not to let the first person narrator get bogged down by backstory or long descriptions, especially if you’re writing in the present tense. Keep the pace and action of the story moving forward. Focus on keeping your narrator in the action in every scene. For example, rather than write, “I tried to talk to Sara about how I felt but she didn’t want to listen to what I had to say,” you may put this content in a scene with dialogue and action. You may write instead, “‘Sara, why won’t you talk to me?’ I was determined to get her to listen to what I had to say.” To get a better sense of the first person point of view, read examples of this perspective in literature. Look at present and past tense examples so you can look at how other writers use it in their work. There are several well known examples of the first person point of view in writing, including:   To Kill a...

TL;DR in English: Give the narrator a distinct voice. Filter the actions of the story through the narrator. Use the “I” to keep the pace and action moving forward. Read examples of first person narratives.

Make sure you have enough time for a nice, long, relaxing bath. About twenty minutes should do. Bubble bars are luxurious, and not worth a quick, five minute bath. Save them for when you have time to take a longer bath and relax. Bubble bars create a ton of bubbles, and sometimes, you don't even need to use the entire bar to get a decent amount. By cutting your bar into smaller pieces, you'll be extending the life of one bar, and saving money. You can store the extra bars in a plastic bag or box. Make sure that the bag or box seals up tightly.  Keep the labels, and stick them onto the bag or box. This way, you'll have the name/scent, and use-by date. Be careful not to get water into the bag or box. The extra bars must be kept dry until you are ready to use them. Use a temperature that is most comfortable for you. Have your bubble bar ready. The bar will start to melt in your hand and release its scent and/or color. The tub will begin to fill with thick, fluffy bubbles.  Some people prefer to put the crumbled bar into a strainer first, so that they don't drop any pieces into the water. The stronger the water flow, the more bubbles you'll get.  Some bubble bars are colored, but you may not see the color at first. The color will become deeper the longer you hold the bar under the water. This will help create more bubbles. If there are not enough bubbles to your liking, add a little bit more of the bubble bar. Light some candles, turn on some music, or read a book. Baths are supposed to take a little longer than showers so that the body and mind can relax. Expect the bubbles to last about 20 minutes.

Groom your cocker spaniel regularly and often. Brush your cocker's hair at home on a regular basis. Send your cocker spaniel to a professional groomer. Introduce your cockers to groomers early in life. Take your cocker spaniel for regular checkups.

The first 6 water bottles should all be the same height. The 7th bottle should be cut 1inch (2.54 centimeters) taller.  Make sure all bottles are the same size and shape. A pencil caddy is ideal for those who have a lot of different pencils, and like to keep organized. They are also perfect for keeping pencils, colored pencils, crayons, and pens all separate. You can decorate it however you want, skip bulky embellishments like buttons and gems. If you want to add bulky embellishments, such as buttons or gem stones, wait until after you have assembled the caddy. A quick and simple decorating idea is to paint the bottles different colors, or decorate them with stickers. All shorter bottles should be touching the taller one. When you look down on them, you should see a design sort of like a flower. Make sure that the glue is going all the way from the top edge to the bottom. For extra holding powder, make the line squiggly. Make sure that you are pressing the glue part against the taller bottle. Repeat for the rest of the bottles, until they are all glued against the taller one. You can glue the ends down, or tie them off into a pretty bow. You can glue down plastic rhinestones, buttons, or even draw on it using glitter glue. If you'd like to make a base for the caddy, glue it down onto a cardboard disk or cake stand.

TL;DR in English: Cut down 7 water bottles, with one of them being taller than the rest. Decorate the bottles. Arrange the shorter bottles around the taller one. Pull out the first bottle and draw a vertical line of hot glue down the side. Quickly replace the bottle, and press it gently against the taller bottle. Wrap a piece of ribbon or colorful tape around the middle of the bottle bundle. Consider decorating the caddy further.

We think that we need all sorts of things that we really don't, and these things can quickly suck up a lot of money. You want to make all those little bits of money that you made by following the first section stretch even more, right? Look at what you think of a need and reevaluate. Cell phone? Land line? TV? Candy? Fast food? gym membership? Online subscriptions? Internet? Different people need different things, depending on how they live. Just look at everything you spend money on and think: do I actually need this to survive? If you make your money through something like the internet, than the answer might very well be "yes". If you're young, live at home. This can save you a lot of money and help you build up a financial cushion so that you can more responsibly move out at a later date. If you help your parents out around the house and are generally respectful and loving, they won't even mind too much. Just make sure that they see you trying to save money and be responsible. Look at your monthly spending or bank statements. See any big numbers that stand out? When you look at your statements, you'll often find purchases that you really didn't think about or that you really didn't need. Paying attention to how you spend your money can make you a more conscious spender and save you lots of cash. Plan how you'll spend your money and stick to the plan. This will save you tons of money in the long run. A lot of the time the money we make seems to disappear, because we excuse all sorts of little purchases. Give yourself an allowance, but otherwise strictly budget your income in order to save as much money as possible. Clothes, food, household items: everything you buy should be at a discount. Don't go for any sale, however, that encourages you to buy something you weren't already going to buy anyway: this leads to to spend more money, not less. Get your clothes from Goodwill or garage sales. You can save a lot on food by shopping at grocery outlets and similar stores. Avoid credit cards or any other kinds of...

You will need to be standing upright on the board to try stopping and turning techniques. Start by finding a small dune with a slight slope. Place the board facing downhill. Put your weight in your heels and keep your toes up. Then, drop your toes down so the board lies flat and you slide slowly down the hill. Lift your toes and dig your heels in to stop. You can also try this facing uphill. Repeat the same steps, lowering your heels down to slide backwards and then raising them up to slow down to a stop. Once you have mastered slide stops, you can try doing a full stop once you ride down a dune. Pick a dune that ends in a flat, straight line. As you come to the flat sand at the bottom of the dune, shift your weight to your front foot and slide your back leg outward. Move your shoulders and hips frontward so you are facing towards the bottom of the dune. Raise your toes and slide your back foot out until you come to a stop on the edge of your board. Keep your weight even on both feet so you slide smoothly to a stop. Begin by riding straight down a dune. Then, shift your weight forward and lift your back heel. Rotate your hips of where you would like to turn and let your body lean into the turn. Keep your hips and legs centered on the board as you lean. Make sure you give yourself time to turn, as it may not be a slow turn if you are in deep sand or sand that is slightly wet. Practice turning in different directions by lifting your back heel and rotating your hips while you are on the board. It may take some practice to be able to turn at faster speeds or as you come down steeper dunes.

TL;DR in English: Practice slide stops. Try doing a full stop at the bottom of a dune. Practice turning on a small dune.

Cockers need a lot of care for their coat, which is beautiful, but can be expensive and time-consuming. If you're not prepared for a lot of grooming, a cocker spaniel may not be the best dog for you.[Image:Care for a Cocker Spaniel Step 3.jpg|center]] Cockers are famous for their beautiful, long fur. They are also well known as show dogs. However, their coat requires a fair amount of upkeep. This helps to keep their coat free of matted and tangled fur. A slicker brush is the best type of brush to use.  Your cocker spaniel will take some time to get used to being brushed. Be patient if they are skittish and pretty soon they will love it. You can also keep their coat short to avoid having to brush their coat so often. However, you still need to send your cocker to a professional groomer on a regular basis. Grooming your cocker yourself is possible, but can be time consuming and difficult. If you don't want to groom your dog on a regular basis, a cocker spaniel is likely not the right dog for you Many owners have a professional grooming of their cocker spaniel every six to eight weeks. These grooming sessions can be expensive, since they are rather time consuming. Groomers usually perform one of two cuts. The Classic Cocker is where the groomer shaves your cocker's back, top of head, chest, stomach, and behind, but leaves long fur to grow on the legs and in between the legs. The Puppy Cut is where the groomer gives your cocker a full trim all over and leaves them having short hair. Have them groomed in small doses at first, so they become accustomed to it. Being in the room while they are being groomed as puppies also makes them feel more comfortable. Cockers are often not cooperative with groomers, so give them plenty of exposure so they are not nervous when they go for a long grooming session. Cocker spaniels are prone to getting sick. They may come down with progressive retinal atrophy (PRA), cataracts, patellar luxation, and glaucoma. Have regular checkups with the vet to ward off any of these diseases. ...

In some cases, an off track window may be caused by a broken or worn out track. If areas in the track are rusted, apply a few drops of white lithium lubricant to them. If areas in the track are bent, try pressing them into shape using the back of a hammer, wrench, or other firm tool. If the track is rusted or bent to the point of being unusable, you will need to replace the window regulator and, most likely, the window motor. Depending on your car’s make and model, replacement regulators typically cost between $190 and $270, not including a motor. If your window track uses glue to hold the glass in place, touch it to make sure it is still sticky. If the window track is dry, rough, or cracked, squeeze a layer of Automotive Goop or similar automotive adhesive into it. Over time, a bad window motor can cause the glass pane to stop moving, making it appear off track or causing it to fall out of alignment. Check the motor for any clear signs of damage, like dents or holes. If the device seems good, connect voltmeter wires to the motor’s connector terminals. If the voltmeter reads between +12 and -12 volts, the window motor is in good working condition.   If the motor seems fine but doesn’t operate correctly, replace the associated fuse in the fuse box. If it still doesn’t work, check the window control switch by connecting an ohmmeter to it and and looking for little to no resistance when the switch is pressed.  Depending on your car’s make and model, expect replacement motors to cost between $120 and $240, not including a regulator. In some cases, a stuck or off-track window may have been caused by a loose or faulty wire. Examine each wire inside the door for kinks, tears, and other forms of damage. If they look good, make sure they’re fully connected to the window motor. If the wires are damaged or broken, you will need to replace them or, in some cases, the whole motor. Though not always available, model-specific replacement wires generally run between $15 and $50 dollars.

TL;DR in English: Examine the window track for wear. Add adhesive if your window track is dry or rough. Inspect the electric window motor with a voltmeter. Check for bad wire connections.

Unlike other fowl, quail cannot eat low-quality feed without sacrificing quality. This is especially important when it comes to quail being raised for breeding and laying eggs. If you can't find high-quality quail feed, try another type of game bird feed. You can also try turkey feed, which is usually higher in protein than chicken feed, making it more suitable for quail.  Chicken feed can make a decent substitute for meat quail. If you choose to go with turkey feed, make sure that it is non-medicated.  Always refer to a qualified nutritionist before you make any substitutions. About 80% of a quail's diet will consist of grains. Most quail or game bird feeds will consist of: cracked corn, grains (barley, oats, rye, and wheat), millet, milo, oat grouts, popcorn, safflower seed, sunflower kernels, and sunflower seeds. Quail are easy to feed in that you do not have to worry about over-feeding them. They will stop eating once they feel full. However, quail are picky when it comes to the size of their food. If the grains or pellets are too small or too big, they won't eat it. It has to be just right.  If the feed comes in pellet form, try breaking it up into (quail) bite-sized pieces. Make sure that the pieces are consistent, or the quail will just pick out the pieces they like best and leave the rest. This can result in an in-balanced diet. Avoid mashed feed, if you can. If you must use mash feed, make sure that it is not too powdery. The powder can easily get in between the quail's toes and cause infections. Adult quail will eat about 20 to 25 grams of food a day. Make sure that you place the troughs in a dry place, away from rain, snow, sunlight, and wind. You might want to place the food further away from the water troughs as well. If the feed gets wet, it can grow mold, which can kill quail. Also, you should empty the feed troughs often. Only wash the troughs when they become dirty from waste, or if the feed itself gets wet.  Make sure that the food trough is level with the quail's crop area. Try to use...

TL;DR in English: Purchase high-quality quail feed from a feed store or from online. Give the quail enough food, and make sure that the texture is right. Keep the feed troughs clean, dry, and easily accessible. Offer plenty of water, and make sure that the quail have easy access to it. Keep the water troughs clean and replace the water daily to minimize bacteria growth. Store the food in a clean, dry place, and use it before it expires.

Many Internet service providers (ISPs) expressly forbid personal hosting unless you have a business plan, which often costs significantly more than a standard use plan. This shouldn't be an issue if your site only generates a few hits per month, but any kind of significant traffic will draw attention to your hosting.  If your ISP prohibits home-hosting, either upgrade your plan to one that allows hosting or switch to a different ISP before you continue. Failing to heed your ISP's policy for home-hosting can result in anything from getting your Internet turned off to having to pay fines. In order to host a website, you must have a computer on and connected to the Internet 24 hours per day, seven days per week. This is easier to accomplish with a secondary, older computer than it is with your primary computer. Restarting your computer to update will occasionally be necessary. During these updates, your website will be inaccessible. Make sure that your computer is up-to-date with the latest operating system, security features, and drivers.

This helps to reset the machine and removes any risk of electrocution. Hold the sides of the water reservoir and pull it upwards. This will expose the base of the reservoir. Pour out any remaining water from the reservoir into the sink. If you have a water filter attachment, remove it before pouring out the water. On the base that holds the reservoir, there is a small opening. This opening is called the base port. Use the damp cloth to gently clean the port and remove any debris. Microfibre cloths work well for this, as the fibres trap the dirt and debris. There is a mesh screen filter over the top of the water reservoir. Hold this mesh under streaming water. The running water will help to push any debris out of the mesh. Leave the mesh under running water until all the debris have been cleared from the filter. Empty the water out of the reservoir and fill it with fresh water from the tap. This stops the debris from the mesh getting pushed through the machine. If you have a water filter attachment, place it in the reservoir before you place the reservoir on the base. Make sure that the water reservoir sits securely on the base of the machine. Place a mug on the tray and ensure that there is no portion pack in the coffee maker before you press brew. This helps to flush any dirt or debris out of the coffee maker. Empty the cup between each brew cycle.

TL;DR in English:


Take responsibility. Initiate a conversation. Change your own behavior.

Anger can be a powerful motivational tool. Michael Jordan used to tack up trash talking quotes from other players in his locker and use it as motivation, which fueled six NBA championships and numerous other accolades. Instead of letting your anger bubble over and break a dish in your kitchen, use it to get things done.  If you get angry that another employee constantly gets complimented while you are ignored, put that angry energy into doing more and better work next week. Do so much work you'll have to get noticed. If you get angry at something more difficult to identify or understand, like feelings of frustration with your relationship, you'll need to focus on communicating your feelings and discussing them with the parties involved. It might take making a big change, like breaking up, if you feel like you're in an unchangeable situation. The best way to deal with anger is to get busy with whatever work it is you've got to do. Productive things you can do instead of letting anger drive you into an unproductive mud hole:  Clean the kitchen Organize your garage Do homework Bake something delicious Hit the heavy bag at the gym Write Remember that it's never wrong to feel anger, it's only wrong to allow your anger to overwhelm your sensibilities and force you to do things you know are wrong, or are inappropriate. The feeling that your anger is wrong will often force angry people to bottle up the rage and make it worse down the line. . Aside from offering an excellent distraction from whatever it is that's making you angry, getting some exercise can be an excellent way of processing anger and ridding your body of stress, upping the production of endorphins that will relax you in the long run. It's difficult to feel angry too long when you're too busy sweating to care. Do something that will keep you moving:  Play basketball Try boxing Go jogging Try circuit training While it may seem like smoking a cigarette or taking a shot of whiskey might be a  good anger-reliever, depending on self-destructive externals to...

TL;DR in English: Use your anger to make positive shifts. Get to work. Let yourself be emotional periodically. Get physical Avoid self-destructive anger management. Understand how anger affects your physical and emotional health.

Use a sanding sponge to sand away the loose particles around the edges of the dent. Run the sanding sponge over the dent itself to create a rough surface that the joint compound, which is used to fill the dent, will be able to adhere to easily. Dip a joint knife sideways into the container of joint compound and load about half of the blade. Run the knife over the dented area to smooth on the joint compound. Turn the blade at a 90 degree angle to the wall and run it over the area again to remove excess compound.  Be sure to remove the extra compound, so that the area won't have bumps once the the substance dries. Check the area it it dries to determine if the dent has been completely filled. You may need to apply a second coat if the joint compound shrinks as it dries. Use a sponge sander or another fine sander to gently blend the area with the surrounding wall space after the joint compound has completely dried. You can also use a dampened sponge to smooth the edges. Joint compounds are relatively porous, so it's necessary to prime the repaired area before you paint it. Otherwise, the paint will look different from the surrounding area.  Use a primer that matches the paint color. If possible, use the same one you originally used to paint the wall. If you have paint that also acts as a primer, priming the wall first isn't necessary. Once the primer is dry, use a soft cloth to paint over the area with the wall paint. Work gently and use strokes similar to the strokes you used to paint the surrounding wall so that the paint will look blended after it has dried.

TL;DR in English: Sand down the  edges. Apply joint compound. Sand the area. Prime the area. Paint over the repair.

Pick a sturdy box or container with some extra room for packing material around the edges. You’ll want to make sure your books can lay flat and that the edges won’t get squished or bent. Line the bottom of the box with padding. Then, carefully add the books to the container. Add extra padding on top and around the books to keep them safe; bubble wrap, packing peanuts, and crumpled plastic bags are lightweight options. Crumpled newspaper works too, but the weight may add a bit more to shipping costs.  Damage usually happens to the corners of hardcover books, which can get bent (or "bumped" as they say in the book trade). Pay special attention to padding the corners. If you have the space, separate all books with their own layer of padding. One way to do this is to sort the books by size, in stacks, and wrap each stack in bubble wrap. Close the box lid by laying the flaps flush, rather than weaving them together. Place packing tape halfway up one side, across the lid, and down the other side. Repeat with a second piece of tape in a cross shape. Cover any flap or opening with packing tape to prevent something from catching on it and ripping it apart. For extra protection, tape along each edge seam of the box as well, but don't use tape more than necessary. It's a nuisance if the recipient has to cut off yards of tape to get to the book.

TL;DR in English: Choose the right size container. Fill the container. Tape the container securely.

Plastic bags are water-resistant, so they’re one of the most useful things you can bring. Use large trash bags to store clothing, sleeping bags, and campfire fuel. Smaller sandwich bags are useful for sealing away important documents, money, and electronics. Dry bags function the same way but are more expensive. You can get them wherever camping gear is sold. Anything exposed to rain is going to take a long time to dry or clean. Obviously you never want wet clothing, but even items like your cooking set will get very dirty. No matter how waterproof you think they are, get them out of the rain. Pack some newspaper and towels for whenever you need to mop up rainwater. The towels can be used to wipe down tables and other surfaces, while newspapers are absorbent and can also be used as a fire starter. One way to use newspapers is to place them in wet shoes and other clothing to help soak up the moisture. Nuts, energy bars, and jerky are some good snack foods to get you through the rains. Sandwich-making supplies like bread and peanut butter also work. While cooking in the rain is possible, these foods can save you a lot of effort and spare you a soaking. Bring along some books, a deck of cards, board games, drawing materials, or anything else that’ll keep you busy. Make sure you’re having fun while you’re stuck waiting for the rain to pass. You could sing or take turns telling stories, too. Keep children busy by playing games, doing coloring activities, or telling stories, especially if the storm will scare them. Take down the tent first, removing the rain fly and tarp later, if possible. You will most likely need to pack away your gear before it fully dries. Pitch your tent as soon as you get to the next area. Leave your clothing, sleeping bag, and other dampened gear out in the sunlight to dry. Wet gear can lead to mold or mildew, so it’s important to dry it out as soon as possible.

TL;DR in English: Pack important gear in plastic bags. Move all of your gear out of the rain. Use newspaper and quick-dry towels to soak up moisture. Bring foods that don’t require cooking. Plan some fun activities you can do at camp. Air out your gear before packing it away.

If a girl hates you, there could very well be a reason why. Instead of spending the rest of your life ignoring her, take accountability for whatever actions caused her to hate you. It’s best to confront her about this in a private setting. The easiest way to take responsibility is to apologize. Take the girl aside and say, “I know you’re really mad at me for how I treated you last semester and I just want you to know that I’m sorry. I hope we can work things out so that you don’t feel this much anger towards me.” Whether a girl hates you because of something you did or simply because she’s a bully, it’s a good idea to talk through the issue. Ask the girl to join you for a coffee or tea so that you can work out what’s bothering her. Even if you haven’t done anything wrong and are baffled as to why you’re being picked on, it’s still a good idea to get some clarity on the situation. Plan to talk in a quiet but public place to ensure privacy and safety.  Say to her: “I’d really like for us to work out this issue together. Can we meet at Starbucks later this afternoon to talk it out?” Use “I” statements to avoid making her feel defensive. For example, you can say something like, “I feel sad when you call me names.” Say what you would like to have happen. For example, you might say something like, “I’d like for you to stop calling me names.” Avoid criticizing, threatening, advising, or assuming that you know what she is thinking. Stick to saying how you feel and what you want.  If you are dealing with a bully in school, have an adult mediate a conversation. You can't control other people’s actions, but you can control your own. Depending on the situation, there are a few ways you can radically change your behavior so that the girl will stop seeing you as someone to hate.  If you’re being bullied, try to see that the girl is probably bullying because she is in some kind of personal pain. Say something nice to her every once in a while or invite her to sit with you at lunch and see if she changes her attitude towards...

TL;DR in English:


Determine if it’s bullying. Stay calm and tell the person to stop. Walk away. Talk to someone you trust. Think of ways to keep yourself safe, emotionally and physically.

Keep your body facing one side of the dog, as turning your back will put you at risk. Resist the urge to turn and run from the dog as it approaches you, as this could make it more aggressive. Try communicating with the dog in a low, calm voice. Do not shout or scream at the dog, as this could make it more aggressive. If you know the dog’s name, trying saying its name a few times so it knows you are a friend. If you’d like to get away from the dog, do so by slowly backing up. Step back calmly with your body facing one side of the dog. Once you are a few feet away from the dog, turn around slowly and walk away. Keep the dog in your line of sight as you move away so you are aware of its movements. If you have a dog on a leash or small children with you, place them behind you as you back away. This will protect them from the dog without spooking it. Do not try to pick up the dog or child, as this can be seen as aggressive by the approaching dog.

TL;DR in English: Do not turn your back on the dog. Say “go home” or “down” to the dog. Move away slowly from the dog. Keep any dogs or children behind you.

Benzoyl peroxide is a common ingredient in acne washes and lotions. It works by killing bacteria that may otherwise clog pores to form new pimples. It also helps clear away excess oil and dead skin cells from the affected area. Benzoyl peroxide is usually found in strengths varying between 2.5 percent to 10 percent in over-the-counter products.  Possible side effects of benzoyl peroxide include bleached hair and clothing if using a product containing too much benzoyl peroxide. Caution should be used when applying this product to your hair or scalp.  Other side effects include dry skin, redness, a burning sensation, and possible scaling of skin. Salicylic acid is one of the most commonly used topical acne ingredients, found in most facial washes and medicated wipes. It helps prevent pores from clogging and can even unclog pores that have already become plugged, shrinking existing pimples on the scalp or elsewhere on the body. It is usually found between 0.5 percent and five percent strengths in most over-the-counter topicals. Possible side effects include skin irritation and a mild stinging sensation. There are two types of alpha hydroxy acids: glycolic acid and lactic acid. Both forms of alpha hydroxy acids are often used in over-the-counter acne treatments, as they can help clear away dead skin cells and reduce inflammation. Some studies suggest that alpha hydroxy acids can also promote new, smoother skin growth. Some people with acne find that sulfur is a useful treatment option. It can help clear away dead skin cells and excess oil from the body, and is usually combined with other topical over-the-counter ingredients when found in a skin wash or medicated topical. Be aware that some products containing sulfur may have an unpleasant smell.

TL;DR in English: Use benzoyl peroxide. Apply salicylic acid. Use an alpha hydroxy acid. Try sulfur.

with a paintbrush. Because your tree won't have insects to spread its pollen around, you'll need to pollinate the plant manually for it to grow fruit. Rub the paintbrush against the plant's stamen and anthers, the pollen-covered buds around the middle of the plant's flowers. Transfer the pollen to the pistil, the bulb located deep in the center of the flower.  Repeat this process once a day to ensure pollination. Most lemon trees take 6-9 months to harvest after being successfully pollinated.  Your lemon tree may produce fruit even if you don't pollinate it, but the fruit will be larger if it is pollinated. Once a cluster of small lemons appears on your tree, remove 2/3 of them to allow the remaining 1/3 a chance to grow large. Snip away the extra lemons with pruning shears, cutting carefully at the stalk.  Too many lemon clusters can drain your tree of energy and stunt all of the fruits' growth. Many trees will drop fruit on their own. Wait a few months before removing any fruit. As your lemons grow, apply pressure with your thumb to the rind. If the inside feels soft and plump instead of hard, the plant is ready for you to harvest.  The fruits can be left on the tree for awhile without becoming overripe. The fruits will usually stop growing once they're ready to harvest. They should also be a rich yellow color. Take the pruning shears and clip them off of the tree at the fruit stalk. If you don't have pruning shears, you can also carefully pull the lemon from the tree. Pull or cut gently to prevent damaging your plant. After harvesting your lemons, you can store them for 2-4 weeks on a counter and 1-2 months in a refrigerator. Avoid cutting your lemons until you're ready to use them, as cut lemons only last for 2-3 days in a fridge. If you want to store your lemons for longer, squeeze the juice and store it in an airtight container for 4-6 months in a fridge or freezer. Your tree should remain root-bound in order to keep its size in check, but some potted lemon trees will stop producing fruit if their roots...

TL;DR in English: Pollinate your lemon tree Thin out any heavy lemon clusters that grow. Test the fruits for ripeness with your thumb. Cut your lemons from the tree with pruning shears. Store your lemons for 1-2 months on your kitchen counter or in your fridge. Prune your plant's roots if it stops producing lemons.

There isn’t just one type of bullying—there are verbal, social and physical forms of the aggressive behavior known as bullying. But what they all have in common is that they are unwanted and repeated (rather than one time) behaviors.  Verbal bullying includes teasing, name calling, inappropriate sexual comments or jokes, taunts and threats. Social bullying refers to attempts to hurt someone's reputation or relationships and can include spreading rumors about someone, telling others not to associate with that person or purposefully embarrassing someone in public. It's important to note that verbal and social bullying don't always happen in person. Cyberbullying is a type of bullying that happens through email, social media sites, phone messages, or in any other digital space. Cyberbullying can include threatening messages, online harassment, excessive texts or emails, embarrassing images or information posted on social media, and other verbal or social bullying tactics used in a digital space.  Physical bullying happens when someone hurts another person's body or possessions. Physical bullying includes spitting, hitting, pushing, kicking, punching, tripping and pulling as well as stealing or destroying someone's property. Keep in mind that all of these behaviors can happen and not be considered bullying. If a mean or aggressive behavior like hitting or name calling happens once, it isn't technically considered bullying. But if it happens repeatedly, or it becomes obvious that the perpetrator intends to continue with the unwanted behavior, it can be called bullying. Look at the person who is bullying you and in a calm, clear voice tell him or her to stop, that his or her actions are inappropriate, or that he or she is being disrespectful.  If you’re good at joking with others and don’t feel threatened, you could also try to laugh off the comments or jokingly say something back. A humorous response can disarm the bully by throwing him or her off guard. If the bullying is happening online it's best not to respond...

TL;DR in English:


Do not approach or frighten a turtle if you see one in the wilderness. Engage in  "hazing. Protect more vulnerable members of your group. Do not turn your back on the coyote(s) at any point.

Assess what kind of turtle you are dealing with before you start. Put your fingers in water where you can see turtles nearby. Allow the turtle to get close. Quickly grab the turtle on its side. Enjoy looking at the turtle but don't take it home.

Use special styling shears if you can, as they're sharper and designed for cutting hair, so they'll give you the best results. If you don't have any on hand, use a sharp, accurate pair of regular scissors. Dull scissors will damage your hair by producing jagged ends. Test them on a piece of string to make sure sharpness is adequate.

TL;DR in English: Choose the right scissors.

Coyotes commonly "shadow" humans passing through their territory to ensure that you don't bother their dens. As long as the animal does not approach, you should just continue with whatever you were doing. Escalate your response only if a coyote comes closer. Remember, most coyotes prefer to stay away from large predators, including humans. Avoid turning a harmless sighting into a dangerous encounter by evaluating the situation carefully before undertaking any action. " To haze is to scare the animal away from you. Make yourself look as big, imposing, and aggressive as possible. Wave your arms above your head and shout in a low but loud and authoritative tone in order to frighten the coyote into retreating. Use tools that appeal to multiple sense, including different lights, sounds and motions.  Stand your ground. Make eye contact and haze until the coyote(s) retreats. Be consistent and assertive in your behaviors and mannerisms and make sure to allow room for the animal(s) to escape. Keep the coyote's attention on you as the source of danger and discomfort. Do not haze from buildings or cars because the animal won't be able to see you as clearly.   Throw objects such as sticks and rocks to make the coyote feel unwelcome and induce it to leave you alone. Spray a hose or water gun and make loud noises by banging pots together if you are approached by a coyote in a residential or urban area. Immediately recall and leash your dog or other pets. Shield any children with your body or place them in the center of the group and form a ring around them. Educate children about what to if they encounter a coyote on their own at home or in the wild. Instruct them to keep eye contact with the animal and to throw rocks and sticks if cornered and without an adult nearby to assist. Demonstrate and rehearse different situations with the children. This indicates submission, weakness and fear; instead, face the coyote to maintain a dominant posture.

TL;DR in English: Do not approach or frighten a coyote if you see one in the wilderness. Engage in  "hazing. Protect more vulnerable members of your group. Do not turn your back on the coyote(s) at any point.

If your dog is licking your skin for attention or affection, removing that reward may help curb this obsessive behavior.  Don't scold your dog. Even a negative reaction is still, in your dog's mind, a reaction to her excessive licking behavior. Stop what you are doing, stand up, and leave the room when she engages in prolonged licking. This will help reinforce in your dog's mind that licking will not achieve these desired outcomes. Dog-appeasing pheromones, also known as DAP, have been proven as an effective means of treating the obsessive behavior that often accompanies separation anxiety in dogs. These artificial chemicals replicate the pheromones released by a nursing mother dog, which can calm anxious or frightened dogs. It's possible that your dog's licking is caused by a scent or taste that she finds desirable. Try using unscented soaps and lotions, and see if your dog's licking declines. Though there are exceptions, most dogs are generally repulsed by the smell and taste of citrus. Using a citrus-scented skin product, or even dabbing your skin with a citrus rind, may keep your dog from licking your skin. Burning energy can help curb negative behaviors, so having a range of toys, including a treat-dispensing toy that challenges her mind, may help curb undesirable behavior like excessive licking. If your dog's licking is part of a larger separation anxiety, you may want to talk to your veterinarian about medication as an option for your pet.  Clomipramine is often prescribed to pets with anxiety and obsessive compulsive tendencies. The medication helps to counteract obsessive compulsive behavior like licking.  Fluoxetine is another common medication prescribed to pets with anxiety. This medication treats canine compulsive disorder with relatively few side effects.

TL;DR in English: Ignore your dog's licking. Try dog-appeasing pheromones. Change your soap or lotion. Use citrus-scented skin products. Keep your dog occupied with toys. Consider medicating your dog.

Stack the deck with the best cards on top.  Hold the deck in the palm of your hand with your thumb on top.  Using your thumb, slide the top card at an angle slightly off to the side so that you can grab the corner of the second card with the thumb and forefinger of your dealing hand.  Continue this process as you deal cards to everyone else, then deal the top card to yourself. Practice this move slowly and continue to increase the speed of your deal and decrease the distance you slide the top card as you improve. Keep this trick out of the view of the rest of the players by bending your wrist so that the top of the deck of cards tilts slightly toward you.  This will utilize the back of your hand to shield the deck of card from the view of the other players. Stack the best cards on the bottom of the deck.  Hold the deck in the palm of your hand with your thumb on top.  Keep the tip of your middle finger poised on the corner of the card on the bottom of the deck.  Deal to the other players off the top of the deck.  When it is time to deal your own hand, apply slight pressure to the corner of the bottom card, using the middle finger you had poised and ready.  Gently push that corner toward the corner diagonally across from it.  That corner should press against the palm of your hand, creating a slight bend in the card and separating it from the other cards at the bottom of the deck. Slide the bottom card slightly out from the deck and grab it with your dealing hand.  It is important to separate the card from the others at the bottom of the deck to be sure that only one card slides and doesn't take some of the others with it, leaving you with a deck which isn't square and potentially giving away your trick. Keep the deck slightly tilted with the top of the cards facing the rest of the players and hiding the bottom of the deck and your bending cards. Use an overhand shuffle to float the cards you want to the top of the deck, then table shuffle the number of cards between the ones you want in your hand to stack the...

TL;DR in English: Deal yourself the top card by “second dealing” to the rest of the table. Deal your hand off the bottom of the deck. Stack the deck with the cards in order.

Catching turtles by hand with this method works best when attempting to catch small turtles.   If you want to catch a large turtle, you can probably just sneak up on it and grab it by its sides. Beware of snapping turtles! They have long necks that can reach back and snap your fingers!  It's best to just let them be. Wiggle your fingers around slowly. This should draw the attention of turtles, as you are mimicking the movement of insects on the surface of the water. However, don't let it get close enough to bite you. You will need to assess when it has gotten close enough to grab with your other hand. If you are afraid to pick the turtle with your hands, bring a small container to scoop it up with or you can wear gardening gloves or snow gloves so you won't get scratched or bitten. While it's great to get an up close look at a wild animal, don't take it out of its natural habitat permanently. Native turtle species populations, like those of many wild animals, are sadly in decline all over the world. We need to help them survive by letting them live in their natural environments.

TL;DR in English:
