Blend the rolled oats to make oat flour. Mix in the rest of the ingredients. Heat and grease a skillet over medium heat. Pour some pancake batter onto the skillet. Wait until bubbles form to flip the pancake. Cook the pancake for 1 to 2 more minutes. Continue making pancakes until you run out of batter. Serve the pancakes.

Your nausea may get worse if you try to do too much or if you are not getting adequate rest. Stay at home in bed as soon as you start to get nauseous. Laying down, avoiding exercise and sudden movements, and getting a bit more sleep will slow and stop your nausea and reduce your chances of vomiting. If necessary, take time off of work or school to do so. Staying in a single sick room may be easy, but the air will go stale and make you feel worse. Open a few windows to allow a breeze of fresh air, and when possible, take a few minutes to step outside. Taking a bubble bath may sound great, but adding in overly-scented perfumes will likely upset your stomach more. In general, avoid anything (perfumes or otherwise) with a very strong scent. Smell and taste are connected, so a strong smell can make you feel equally as sick as a bad taste. Keep your window open to allow fresh air in, and to keep bad smells out. The brightness, noise, and movement associated with your television, laptop, tablet, and phone can be overly stimulating and make an upset stomach worse. Instead, lay in bed with the lights dimmed and read a book or relax in a similar way. Taking time away from your electronics will ease your stomach and prevent an associated headache as well. Nothing is worse than feeling sick and being too hot or too cold as well. Stay at a comfortable temperature to make resting easy; add or remove layers of clothing and blankets, or take a short shower or bath. You can change the temperatures of the liquids you are drinking to help as well. If your stomach ache simply won’t go away and the urge to vomit is growing stronger, don’t stop it. Your body is trying to expel the cause of your illness from your body, so let it. Vomiting is certainly not an enjoyable activity, but it does an important job of helping you to heal. You’ll probably feel better afterwards anyway.

TL;DR in English: Get rest. Get some fresh air. Avoid strong smells. Take time away from your electronics. Adjust your temperature. Don’t avoid throwing up.

Avoid doing anything exhausting or overly-stimulating in the 12 hours leading up to your flight. Instead, take your time to pack, enjoy a meal at the hotel, or hang out on a balcony. If you end up rushing or running around before you leave, you’re going to come home stressed. Travelling can take a toll on you, even if you’re having fun while you’re doing it. Sleep in a little, make yourself some delicious food, and spend the next day doing something relaxing. This will give you time to recharge and get you ready to reenter the normal swing of things.Feel free to catch up on some work emails if you have hundreds of them waiting for you. Just don’t overdo it by spending more than 2-3 hours working on a day you set aside for yourself. Your trip will be more memorable if you compile an actual photo album for the trip. This will give you a way to share your experience and really commit everything you did to memory. Putting a photo album together also gives you a chance to revisit everything you did. This is a phenomenal way to take a sort of mini-vacation for a few hours as you sort through all of the great photos!

TL;DR in English: Spend the 12 hours before your flight relaxing and resting. Set aside one extra day of relaxation after you land. Create a photo album to remember your trip fondly.

MacBooks produced in 2015 and later have one USB-C port—also known as a Thunderbolt 3 port—located on the left side of the housing. If your MacBook was made from 2009 through 2015, it has a Mini DisplayPort on the left side of the housing.  The Mini Displayport has a port that is square-shaped with the bottom corners cut.  It has a label that resembles a TV screen. You'll need a USB-C to HDMI cable for MacBooks made in 2015 or later, while MacBooks which use Mini DisplayPort connections will require a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter cable.  You can find your required cable in stores such as Best Buy, or you can find them online in places like Amazon and eBay. When buying an adapter cable, don't worry about spending more than around $15. Higher-priced cables don't necessarily equate to higher quality. This will prevent accidental damage to your TV. Your TV should have at least on HDMI port.  An HDMI port resembles a 3/4 inch pentagonal slot.  They're usually on the back or the side of the TV.  Match the shape of the cable connector with the HDMI port and insert the cable into the port. For a MacBook made in 2015 or later, you'll plug the USB-C end of the cable into the oval port on the left side of your MacBook.  For 2009 through 2015 MacBook models, the Mini DisplayPort end of the cable will plug into the port that has a label that resembles a TV screen. If you are using a USB-C adapter to connect to a TV, make sure your MacBook is charged before you begin. Press the power button on your TV or remote to power your TV on.

Pour 1 cup (100 grams) of oats into a blender or food processor. Blend the oats until they form a fine mixture, like flour. Add in the ricotta, yogurt, egg whites, baking soda, and honey. At the very end, add in the lemon zest and the lemon juice. Mix everything together until well-combined. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the walls of the blender/food processor occasionally to ensure that everything mixes evenly. ⅓ cup (81 grams) egg whites equals about 2 large eggs. Heat the skillet over medium heat until it's hot enough to make a drop of water sizzle. Next, grease it's surface with cooking spray, oil, or butter. If you used oil or butter, be sure to wipe most of it off with a paper towel. This will keep your pancakes from turning greasy and splotchy. Plan on using about ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of batter. These types of pancakes are meant to be thin, but you can make them thicker if you want to. Use a soup ladle to make the pouring easier. Once the edges of the pancake turn dry and the bubbles pop, use a spatula to loosen the edges. Carefully slide the spatula under the pancake, then flip it over. These pancakes are delicate compared to other types. Don't worry if your first few don't turn out perfect. It's ready when it's a golden color on both slides. Use a spatula to slide the pancake off of the pan and onto a plate. You have enough batter to make around 15 pancakes. How much you actually end up making also depends on the size and thickness of the pancakes. Re-grease the pan after every couple of pancakes. Remember to wipe any excess oil or butter off. They taste delicious with syrup, Greek yogurt, and fresh blueberries. You can also use lemon curd instead.

TL;DR in English:


As you get close to graduation, your program will submit your name to Pearson Vue – the testing company that administers the CDR. Check with your advisor to make sure that your name has been submitted. If you’ve attended a CP, your internship will be part of your education. If you attended a DPD, you’ll have to complete your internship on your own. Once the internship is complete, Pearson Vue will email you with instructions for registering for the exam. Once you’ve registered for the exam, you’ll need to pay for it. It’s $200 to register for and take the exam. You’ll have to pay online with a credit or debit card. Once you’ve paid the registration fee, you’ll get an email from Pearson Vue about scheduling the date and time of the exam. When you go for your exam, you’ll need to bring a copy of your eligibility email – which should have come from your program after you finished your internship. You also need to bring a drivers’ license or state photo ID. You need a score of 25 or higher to pass the exam. Because the number of questions you have to answer varies from exam to exam, how many you have to answer correctly to pass will vary. If you fail, you can retake the exam after 45 days.  You'll have to pay the same amount for the retake as you did for the original exam. There is no limit to how many times you can retake the exam, as long as you wait 45 days between each attempt. After you pass the CDR, you’ll get information from Pearson Vue on how to maintain your RD credential. You’ll have to pay a maintenance fee and take part in continuing education opportunities every 5 years.

TL;DR in English: Make sure your school submits your name for eligibility. Check your email after you complete your internship. Pay for the exam. Schedule your exam within a year of becoming eligible. Bring the correct documentation. Retake the exam if necessary. Maintain your credential.

Make sure that you have enough fabric to wrap around the holder, plus an additional inch for overlapping. You can use solid-colored or patterned fabric. Cotton will work the best. Mod Podge). Use a foam brush to apply the glue to the holder. To make things easier and less messy, it would be a good idea to apply it to just the front. Press the fabric onto the front of the holder and smooth out any wrinkles. Apply more decoupage glue to the sides and back, and wrap the fabric tightly. Overlap the edge of the fabric at the back by ½ inch (1.27 centimeters). Make sure that the fabric is centered. You will have a lot of excess fabric at the front. Don't worry about this; you will trim it away. Set the holder upside down over something long and skinny, such as a bottle or candlestick as it dries. Even an empty paper towel holder will do. Once it has dried, trim off the excess fabric around the top and bottom of the holder. Next, set the charger down, with the back against a cutting mat, and cut out the charger hole.  You can use scissors or a craft blade to cut off the excess fabric at the top and bottom of the holder. Use a craft knife to cut out the charger hole. Brush on more decoupage glue using the same method as before. This time, make sure that you extend it past the edges of the holder, including the top, bottom, and charger hole. This is your final coat, so be sure to use a finish that you like: matte, satin, or glossy. Trace the bottom of the holder onto the wrong side of your fabric with a pen. Cut the fabric out, then secure it to the base of the holder with decoupage glue. Let the holder dry upside down (just like before), then seal it with a final coat of decoupage glue.

TL;DR in English: Choose a colorful fabric to match your decor. Coat the outside of the holder with decoupage glue (ie: Wrap the cotton fabric tightly around the holder, overlapping it at the back. Allow the fabric to dry. Cut off the excess fabric and charger hole. Apply another coat of decoupage glue, making sure to coat the edges, and let it dry again.

Many indoor and outdoor air conditioning units will have a drain or drain line in the bottom corner of the drain pan at the bottom of the unit. It will look like a hole in the pan, and on some models, there will be a nozzle with a rubber or plastic line coming out of the other side. Make sure the drain isn't blocked or plugged so water and cleaner can drain as you clean the coils.  If it has a drain line that seems to be clogged, pour a 50/50 water and bleach solution in the drain pan and wait a few minutes to clear it out. You can purchase algae tablets from air conditioning specialty retailers to prevent algae from growing and clogging the drain. With the cover set aside, you can look around at the air conditioning coils and make sure there's no large bits of debris that may have worked their way into the unit. It's not uncommon for leaves, sticks or bugs to find their way into the interior of an outdoor unit.  You might want to use a shop vacuum for things like spiderwebs if you're uncomfortable removing them by hand. Be careful touching the fins, or blades, on the coil. They bend easily. Most compressors and motors in modern air conditioning units are maintenance free, but keep an eye out for dark drip marks on the bottom of the compressor housing or beneath it. That may be a sign of an internal oil leak.  If the compressor or motor are leaking oil, it will need to be repaired by a certified technician. Don't attempt to over-tighten connections on the compressor or motor, as you may worsen the leak. Be sure to use your garden hose and not a power washer, as too much force could bend the fins inside the air conditioning unit. Spray the coils down to remove any loose dirt and prepare the coil for a spray cleaner.  If the fan is still in place, avoid spraying it or its wiring directly with the hose. If your unit is indoors, you will need to use a different kind of cleaner for the next step.

TL;DR in English: Clear out the drain line (when applicable). Remove large debris from inside the unit with your hands. Look for signs of oil leaks. Spray the coil with water from the hose if its outdoors.

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

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

Before you proceed to editing your film watch all your footage through, writing notes on every shots stating if it works, are there technical problems. This will save you a lot of time when editing. Many cameras edit in limited ways and some have special effects. Learn how to "cut" pieces of your footage together and put music or speech over your video. Check your camera's manual or use a software package like iMovie to make your final cuts. One way is to use your VCR or DVD burner to make copies for friends and auditions. If your film is digital, you can also output your final edit to a readable format to send via email. Also if your film is in digital format you can upload to YouTube or another video sharing site. Check up with the website's video formats to see if you can upload your movie.

Find your airline. Check your bags. Print your boarding pass.

You can maximize the growing season in your area by getting a head start with your artichokes indoors.  Start your seeds in individual 4 in (10 cm) containers and leave them under fluorescent lights or in a heated greenhouse. In normal indoor temperatures, seeds will likely germinate in a week or so. Increase the size of planters as needed. To harden off the artichokes, begin exposing seedlings to temporary outdoor sessions 6 weeks before the anticipated last frost date in your area. Move seedlings outdoors 3 to 4 weeks before the anticipated final frost. You actually want to expose the plants to a temperature below 45 °F (7 °C) to trigger flowering. They should be about as tall as your hand. Plant the seedlings so that the crown, or top, of the plant is just above the soil line. Cull weak seedlings.  After 8-10 weeks, healthy artichoke seedlings will have stocky stems and two sets of leaves. Remove any that do not. If you live in a place that only has 90-100 days a year without frost, you’ll likely need to start your plants with transplants.  Plan to start growing your transplants indoors late in the winter or in early spring.  Harvest will occur in late summer or early fall.  Acquiring rooted shoots from a year-round greenhouse or online plant distributor is a great way to establish transplants quickly. If acquiring them yourself, use a serrated knife to begin cutting an offshoot under 10 inches (25 cm) tall that’s growing from the base of the plant. Dig around the offshoot to ensure roots come with the offshoot as you remove it. If possible, 4 feet (1.2 m)-6 feet (1.8 m) between individual plants is even better.  These plants have large, aggressive wingspans and require substantial room to grow. If using raised beds, artichokes don’t necessarily need their own beds, but do need ample space to spread their leaves.

TL;DR in English: Sow seeds indoors. Transfer seedlings outdoors. Use transplants in especially cold climates. Plant artichokes at least 3 feet (0.9 m) apart.

At minimum, you should wear safety goggles and heat-resistant, fire-resistant gloves. Also note that you will need to handle the stainless steel object with another device, like tongs or a vice. Everything you use should be both fire-resistant and heat-resistant to prevent accidental burns. You'll need to prepare enough coffee grounds to cover all sides of the stainless steel object you wish to antique.  If you've recently made a pot of coffee, you can use the spent grounds from that. Otherwise, pour enough warm to hot water over a fresh batch of grounds and give the grounds a few minutes to absorb the moisture For small, narrow objects like screws, you can fill a small cup with your prepared grounds. For larger objects, coat the bottom of a shallow tray with the grounds, instead. Hold the metal object with tongs or a vice, then pass the flame of a lighter over the entire length of the object, heating it thoroughly.  Continue rotating and passing the flame over the stainless steel object until the metal begins to darken in color. For larger objects or a more controlled flame, consider using a propane tank with a lighter attachment instead of a handheld lighter. The stainless steel will reach temperatures just beneath 500 degrees Fahrenheit (260 degrees Celsius), so you need to work very carefully to prevent accidental burns. As soon as the steel object darkens, quickly dip the heated portion into the prepared coffee grounds. Hold it in the grounds for 15 to 30 seconds.  The water in the coffee grounds should quickly cool off the metal. Theoretically, the steel should be safe to touch once you remove it from the grounds, but you should still proceed with caution. In addition to cooling off the metal, the coffee should dye the stainless steel, giving it the appearance of antiqued metal. If you want to dye the steel even darker, reheat it and submerge it into the coffee grounds again.  You should be able repeat the process several times without damaging the metal. If you only want to dye one side or area darker,...

TL;DR in English: Wear the appropriate safety gear. Fill a container with warm, moist coffee grounds. Heat the steel using a lighter. Bury the steel in the coffee grounds. Repeat as needed. Polish as desired.

In some countries, a vaccine against rotavirus is available for children. Children under one year old can be administered the vaccine. In most cases, the rotavirus vaccine will prevent a child from experiencing severe symptoms of gastroenteritis throughout his or her life. Use hand sanitizer often. Always wash your hands after going to the bathroom, visiting public spaces, before and after eating, and whenever deemed appropriate throughout the day. Be sure to wash any clothing items, bedding, and/or washable toys that come into contact with an infected individual to avoid spreading the virus. Use a chlorine bleach-based cleaner to sterilize countertops in your home and avoid bacteria from spreading. Over the course of a day, the average person often comes into direct contact with bacteria and viruses that have the potential to cause sickness. Be sure to avoid touching your face, especially orifices such as your mouth, nose, eyes, and ears as much as possible throughout the day. Be sure to wash your hands before touching your face if possible. These foods have a higher ability to spread the stomach flu virus. Meats are especially prone to carrying the virus. Consume undercooked and raw meats and other foods with extreme caution.  Do not drink untreated water or unpasteurized milk when possible. Untreated or unpasteurized waters can carry illness-inducing bacteria and viruses. Only drink from sealed bottles and use bottled water to brush your teeth when you are travelling. Wash fruits and vegetables thoroughly before consuming to remove any outstanding bacteria from the outside of the produce.

TL;DR in English: Get a vaccine. Practice good hygiene. Clean kitchen and bathroom surfaces daily. Avoid touching your face throughout the day. Avoid undercooked and raw foods.

Browse online or in at a local retailer to find a stereo that fits your needs.  Make sure to do research on the brand you choose and confirm the quality of your choice. This list can change from vehicle to vehicle, but the basic tools include: screwdrivers, wire strippers, wire cutters, and electrical tape. You might also need a panel remover tool and factory stereo removal pins depending on your vehicle. This can be very helpful in knowing exactly which pieces of dash to remove and how to remove them. If your owner's manual or service manual does not provide the details you need, you might try looking for a Haynes Service Manual for your car.

TL;DR in English: Choose a new stereo. Gather all the necessary tools. Locate a manual on dash panel removal for your car.

The first thing you’ll need to do when you arrive at the airport is to locate your airline. Airports are divided into terminals, and different airlines are housed in different terminals. There are also different terminals for arrivals and departures. You will need to go to the departure terminal for your airline. You can find out what terminal your airline is in by looking online, calling the airport or by asking one of the employees at the airport. If you are taking mass transportation or having someone drop you off at the airport, make sure you let them know what airline you are flying so they drop you at the correct building. Depending on what you’ve packed, you may need to check a bag or two. Most airlines will allow you one carry-on bag, in addition to one hand-held bag (like a laptop case or a purse.) If you are planning to check bags, go immediately to the counter for your designated airline.  If you are not checking a bag, skip this step and proceed straight to check in. Travelers are allowed to check up to two bags, but there is a weight and size limit on those bags. Check with your airline to see what those weight restrictions are. Be careful not to over-pack, as going over the weight limit for checked baggage may result in fees of over $75.00. In order to board your plane, you’ll need a boarding pass. If you’ve chosen to check your bags, give your airline attendant your identification and they’ll be able to print out your boarding pass for you. If you’re not checking your bags, you can still go to the attendant for help, or you can choose an easier and faster option.  Some airlines also offer kiosks for self-check in. To use these, all you’ll need is a credit card. Use the credit card to identify yourself and then follow the instructions on the kiosk to print out your boarding pass.  Some airlines also give you the option of checking in electronically. If this is the case, you will receive an e-mail 24 hours before your scheduled departure. Follow the instructions in the e-mail to check in for your...

Don’t put your nylons straight into the washing machine, as they can get hung up on the agitator. Instead, protect your stockings by placing them in a mesh bag with a fine weave. If you don’t have one, try using a pillowcase. Mild detergent will help preserve the life of your tights by protecting and conditioning the fibers. However, fabric softener will weaken the fibers, so leave that out of the wash. Always use cold water to wash your tights, as this will help the delicate fabric to last longer. Check your washing machine dials or user’s manual and place it on the gentlest setting available when you wash your nylons. Don’t wash anything with clasps, zippers, metal buttons, or hooks in the same wash as your nylons. These can snag your nylons in the wash, causing them to rip or snag.

TL;DR in English: Place your nylons in a very fine mesh bag. Use a mild detergent and skip the fabric softener. Wash tights on the cold, gentle cycle. Leave out anything that can snag your tights.

A Baker’s cyst occurs when fluid builds up in the back of the knee. This happens when something is wrong or injured inside the joint. However, this can also occur spontaneously without any trauma. Some people just get them and there is no known explanation. This cyst points to a larger underlying problem, like a torn meniscus, that needs to be found soon because the swelling can cause damage to the knee. Bursitis is inflammation or an injury to the prepatellar bursa. Bursa, a round, fluid-filled structure, help the kneecap move smoothly across other tissues without friction. If the bursa gets inflamed, it can cause surrounding tendons to become inflamed and pinched, resulting in pain.  Bursitis can cause stiffness or pain in the knee, as well as tenderness of the knee when touched and pain with movement. Pain is usually worsened by bending the knee and improved with extending the knee. The knee may also be swollen and red. Bursitis can be caused by repetitive motions, like bending or stooping. You can also get it by putting pressure on the joint by kneeling for too long on a hard surface. Patellar tendinitis occurs when you do the same motion on your knee, like running or cycling. Patellar tendinitis is when the tendon between your kneecap and shin becomes inflamed.  Pain is the main symptom of patellar tendinitis. The pain is located beneath your kneecap, near the place it attaches to your shin. The pain may surround a workout, either as you begin or after you finish one. Eventually, the pain will make it difficult to stand or take stairs. Arthritis of the knee occurs when the knee joint swells. Arthritis generally occurs with age or due to a knee injury. It can make everyday tasks difficult, like standing and sitting, walking, or taking stairs. Pain, swelling, and stiffness are common symptoms of arthritis of the knee.  Osteoarthritis (OA) occurs due to age. It can start around age 50, but may affect younger people. OA occurs due to the wear and aging of the cartilage of the knee, which causes less...

TL;DR in English: Determine if you have a Baker’s cyst. Decide if you have bursitis. Monitor for tendinitis. Check to see if you have arthritis of the knee.

There are many herbs that can help with breathing and lung health. There is not one correct way to take any of these herbs. You can drink them by making them as teas. You can also take them as supplements. If you don't want to ingest them, you can use these herbs as aromatherapy by heating them in water and letting the scent permeate the room. To make a tea, use one teaspoon of dried herb per cup of boiled water. If you use as a supplement, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. The Italian herb oregano is a natural decongestant, anti-microbial and anti-histamine. The active agents appear to be volatile oils called carvacrol and rosmarinic acid. You can add this herb, either fresh or dried, to recipes for tomato sauces and to rubs on meats. You can also take oregano as a supplement in its oil form. Peppermint's active ingredient is menthol. Menthol relaxes the respiratory tract muscles and acts as an anti-histamine. You can use peppermint as a fresh or dried herb in recipes for fish or desserts. You can also get it as an oil, which you put in food, take it as a dietary supplement, or apply it as a topical cream. There are also some versions of the oil that you can burn to permeate through the air.  Don’t apply peppermint or menthol oil directly to the skin of children. It has been associated with a decrease in the respiratory rate in children.  Many people use menthol-based chest balms and throat sprays to help break up congestion. The leaves of a eucalyptus tree have been used for centuries. It's a natural decongestant, which loosens mucus, making it easier to cough out. The agents responsible for these properties are cineole, eucalyptol and myrtol. Clinical research suggests that eucalyptus can effectively treat chronic and acute bronchitis. You can take eucalyptus oil by mouth or as a topical rub, but it must be diluted.  Eucalyptus oil vapor acts as a decongestant when it is inhaled, making it effective in the treatment of bronchitis. Try placing a couple of drops of the oil into a bowl of hot water and...

TL;DR in English: Take herbal supplements or make herbal tea. Try oregano for a natural decongestant. Use peppermint to help relax your respiratory system. Try eucalyptus as a natural decongestant. Take additional herbal supplements, as advised by your doctor.

You will need hair dye specially formulated for dark hair and a color remover to help strip the color from your hair. Bleach and ammonia are commonly used to strip hair, though since these can be very damaging, you might consider using a sulfur-based color remover. Read all product information before use. Some products might be specially formulated to require extra steps or specific wait times/procedures. Follow the directions for the best results. These products will be much gentler on your hair, unlike bleach or ammonia. As these are sulfur-based products, they can be quite smelly, but you don't have to worry about that smell sticking around. To help with the smell, you might want to step outside while allowing it to set. Each product will be different, and you should follow the directions that accompany your preferred product for best results. Spacing out hair coloring over the course of a month, or several months, will not only give you better, more accurate results, but will also do the least amount of damage. Also, changing your color by shades will help ensure that you meet your target without overshooting it. A lighter shade of dye, like a 20 volume developer, can be used to lighten gradually with each application. You should space out dye applications as much as possible. A deep conditioner is a must to help keep your hair hydrated while dyeing. You should also think about using a product with protein added to it to help, which will strengthen and hydrate. Use these products throughout the dyeing process to protect your hair from damage. Hair is unique to each individual, and if your lightening techniques don't accomplish your desired results, it may be best to visit a professional. Professional hair stylists are often able to easily strip your dark hair of its color and add a lighter color on top of it. While you are at the salon, you should inquire about lightening shampoo or spray-in treatments. Professional hair stylists will have a better idea of how it will affect your hair. Many products are...

TL;DR in English: Purchase the necessaries. Strip your hair with a sulfur-based hair color remover. Consider gradual coloring. Prevent hair damage. Visit a salon.

Just because you are in a place where you are gaining more authority doesn't mean that you are a perfect worker. Always strive to do better and to improve your work ethic. Make smart decisions that will help your company, not hold it back. This will give you more authority as well, since your bosses will see how smart and forward thinking you are. If you are not sure what to do to improve your position, ask your boss, manager, or supervisor. They will likely tell you what you can do to improve, what responsibilities you can take on to help the company, or how you can become more involved. This will also help raise your level of authority because it will show your initiative. There may be situations that you are uncomfortable with or don't know how to handle. One of the signs of an authoritative worker is being able to handle any situation that comes at you. When a situation presents itself, be okay with saying something like "I appreciate your question, and I'll think it over and get back to you." It shows that you are considerate of your coworker's thoughts and will consider their questions and opinions. This also has the added bonus of giving you time to contemplate questions coworkers bring up and get back to them with well thought out, authoritative answers. One of the worst things you can do is get angry in front of your coworkers. If you are confident and have authority, you do not need to get angry at certain situations just because you have the power to fix them. Even if a situation upsets you, don't let it show in front of others. If you do, it will appear that you do not know a more effective way to approach the  situation. This is true for when you have to discuss sensitive issues with co-workers as well. For example, if you have to talk over an employee's performance issues, remain calm and collected. Be concerned and stern, but not angry or hostile.

Cornrow braids are recommended because they stay close to your head, so you won’t see a “bump” under your wig. The braids are also useful because you can add extra security to keeping the wig in place by using bobby pins to attach the wig to your braids.  Alternatively, you could put on a wig cap to hide your natural hair. If you have short hair, you don’t have to worry about doing anything to your hair before putting on the wig. Wigs will often move around when you try to brush them while wearing them. A chin strap clips onto both sides of the wig and will keep the wig in place as you complete your styling. Simply put on the wig, clip the chin strap to either side of the wig, and make sure it is securely under your chin. You can find chin straps for $3 to $5 online or at a wig store. The way you secure the wig depends on how long you plan to wear the wig. If you plan to wear it for a short amount of time, simply use bobby pins to attach the wig to your braids or hair. It’s also an option to put an elastic band around your head to hold the wig in place.  Some wigs may have drawstrings or clips inside of them to help secure them to your hair. Though you can use adhesive glue or tape to attach the wig, it may cause an allergic reaction or damage your natural hair. See a professional stylist if you want to try these methods. You can also sew the wig into your natural hair

TL;DR in English: Braid your natural hair before putting on the wig. Secure your wig with a chin strap to make finishing touches. Use bobby pins or an elastic band to secure the wig to your hair.

If two other people are starting to fight, you should try to diffuse the tension by appearing relaxed. Use a soothing tone of voice, nonthreatening body language (for example, keep your hands raised in front of your chest), and slow movements. Fights move quickly so you won't have a lot of time. You need to determine how serious the situation is, if you are in danger, whether you need to call for help, and what strategies might work best to stop the fight in this particular situation.  Try to determine whether anyone has a weapon or is likely to reach for an object to use as a weapon (for example, a bottle in a bar fight). If so, call the police and do not intervene. Try to move other onlookers, especially children, to safety. Notice whether the fighters have "back up," often in the form of onlookers who are egging on the fighters. Gang fights and similar situations are unpredictable and you should not try to intervene. Look around for any large objects that you can push between the fighters, like trash cans, desks, or anything else that is big but possible for you to quickly move into place. If either fighter has a weapon of any kind, call the police and do not try to intervene.  You should also call the police if you are physically unable to restrain a fighter or fear that your safety would be in jeopardy if you intervened. Unless a police officer happens to be in the vicinity, it may be too late by the time they arrive. If it is safe to do so, try to break up the fight yourself while you wait for them to arrive. If there is anyone else within hearing range, get them to help you break up the fight before attempting to do it yourself. In situations like this, onlookers don't generally stop to help unless you tell them specifically. So instead of yelling "Someone help me!" look someone in the eye and say "Help me stop the fight!"  If possible, choose someone who is larger than the fighters and looks strong and athletic. But in a pinch, any able-bodied adult will do! Don't leave the scene of a fight to get...

TL;DR in English: Stay calm. Assess the situation quickly. Call the police. Get help from another onlooker. Get between the fighters. Face the antagonist. Restrain an active fighter.

Your first step in bathing your baby is to introduce them to the water.  Take your time and gently place your baby into the water and allow them to get used to it.  Hold your baby in the following manner when you are lowering them into the bath:  Place one hand under the baby's bottom. Place your other hand under the baby’s head, supporting both the head and neck. Don't put your baby in the water too quickly as this might alarm them. You will always need to keep at least one hand on your baby during bath-time.  Taking both your hands off is too risky and can open your baby up to the danger of drowning.  Never take a chance and always keep full control over your child's safety.  Keep one hand under the baby's head or neck at all times. Use your free hand to wash your baby. Once your baby is safely in the water you can begin to bathe them.  Most parents will begin by washing the child's hair and head, before moving down to wash the rest of the body.   Keep some of the following tips in mind when cleaning your baby during their bath:  Start by washing the baby's head or face.  You won't always need to wash their hair. Gently pour water over the baby's body during the bath to keep them warm. Gently move down the rest of the body. Try to clean in between any skin folds. Wash your baby carefully and gently. Try cupping your hand to keep any rinse-water from entering the baby's eyes. Wash your baby's diaper area last. No matter what, do not ever leave your baby unattended during their bath.  Doing so puts them in harm’s way, opening them up the danger of drowning.  It only takes 3cm or around 1 inch of water for a baby to drown in and they won't always give obvious signs that they are in trouble. After your child is clean you can take them out of the tub.  Make sure you have a good and safe grip on them as you remove them from the water and dry them off immediately.  Remember some of the following tips when removing your baby from the tub:  Pick them up with both hands, placing one under their bottom and the other...

After you have cleaned the bra, place the bra on a flat surface with the adhesive bra cups facing upwards. Then, let the bra air dry overnight, or as long as it takes for it to dry completely. If you have the bra’s original packaging, you can place the bra on the package with the adhesive sides of the cups facing up. You may also hang your bra from a towel rack or hook to dry it. This is an especially good idea if you washed the entire body of the bra, and the bra may even dry faster this way. If you are in a hurry, try placing the bra in front of a fan to speed up the drying process.

TL;DR in English: Let the bra dry on a flat surface with the adhesive facing up. Hang the bra up to let it drip dry.

Set time aside. If you just walk up and ask for a raise, you'll seem unprepared -- and come across like you don't deserve one. You don't have to give too much advance notice, but do seek privacy and a time you know you won't be interrupted. For example, when you walk in to work in the morning, say: "Before you leave, I'd like to speak with you."  Remember, a face-to-face request is far harder to turn down than a letter or email. Try to avoid Monday, when there will be a million things to do, or Friday, when your boss may already have other things on his mind. Be confident, not arrogant, and stay positive. Speak politely and clearly to better maintain your composure. And finally, keep in mind that it probably won't be half as bad to ask as it did to work up the nerve! When you talk to your boss, lean in a bit if you're sitting down. This will help project confidence.  Start by saying how much you enjoy your job. Being personable will help make that human connection with your boss. Follow up by discussing your achievements. This will show your boss why a pay raise matters to you. Don't just say, "I want a raise." Tell your boss how much more money you want to make in percentage terms, such as wanting to make 10% more money. You can also talk in terms of how much you would like your yearly salary to increase. Whatever you say, be as specific as possible, so your boss sees that you've really thought it through. Here are the things that can happen:  If it's an outright "no," see the next section. If it's "I need time to think about this," try to pinpoint a future time for reopening the discussion. If your boss agrees immediately, say something like, "Don't say yes unless you mean it" as a means of reinforcing it in his or her mind and then proceed to "hold your boss" to it (see below). This is important regardless of the answer you’ve been given.You can even go "over and above" by giving your boss more than they're expecting from you, such as a thank-you card or lunch invitation to say thanks. Consider sending a...

TL;DR in English: Make an appointment to talk to your boss. Present yourself well. Ask for the raise in specific terms and then wait for your boss's response. Thank your boss for his or her time. Hold your boss to the promise

Once the mixture has reached the proper consistency, take the pan off the heat. Mix in ½ cup (150 g) of salt, and stir well so it is thoroughly incorporated. Make sure that the mixture is still hot when you add in the salt. After you’ve mixed the salt into the lye and oil mixture, leave it to cool completely, which should take 20 to 30 minutes. As it cools, the soap and glycerin will gradually separate into different layers. The soap will solidify into a thick layer on the top of the mixture, while the glycerine will remain liquid-y on the bottom. When the mixture has cooled completely, pour off the top soap layer from the top of the glycerin. You may find it easier to use a spoon to gently lift the soap off, though.  If you want to use the soap, add it to a soap mold and put it in the freezer for 24 hours. Let the soap bars air dry for at least 2 to 3 weeks to finish curing them. If you don’t want to make soap, you can discard the soap layer. Once you’ve removed the soap from the top of the mixture, transfer the liquid vegetable glycerine to a glass bottle. Seal the container tightly, and store it in the refrigerator. The vegetable glycerin should keep in the fridge for at least 3 to 4 weeks. You'll know that it has gone bad if it is no longer clear and instead appears cloudy. Glycerin that has gone bad may also develop a foul smell.

TL;DR in English: Remove the pan from the heat and add the salt. Allow the mixture to cool. Skim the top layer from the mixture. Pour the glycerin into a glass bottle.

People tend to see the material you use for comedy as a reflection of your personality. Learning the right material for the right audience can help you come off as funny without alienating or offending others.  Context is key. Where is it you're trying to be funny? Do you want to be the funny guy at work or school? Or are you looking to be the breakout sensation in your local improv troupe? Lighthearted, non-controversial material is best for a professional audience while laughing off slightly edgier subjects might win you favor in the world of professional comedy.  Remember, what you joke about is a reflection of you. If you tend to mock recent tragedies or controversies, people may feel uncomfortable around you. Being edgy can be a positive for a comedic career, of course, but if you're new to comedy it might be best to stick with lighter subjects until you get the hang of making people laugh.  Appropriate material can be found anywhere. People tend to appreciate those who find humor in a host of subjects. Try and see the funny side in aspects of day-to-day life. Anything from riding a bus to pouring your morning coffee can be used as fodder for humor. A great way to build your sense of humor is by exposing yourself to things that are funny. It's hard to force being funny but you tend to unconsciously take on traits of media you view. Just like writers become better writers through reading, immersing yourself in humorous material can help hone your sense of humor.  Watch funny clips of people online. Many YouTubers incorporate humor without explicitly telling jokes.  View funny movies and television shows. Late night talk show hosts are often funny through observational humor and funny, candid responses to their guests rather than overtly telling jokes.  Listen to funny podcasts and hang around people who enjoy laughing. Observe how people react in day-to-day life. You can gauge the type of material people find funny by doing some basic people-watching. Go to a coffee shop and watch people banter with...

TL;DR in English: Learn about appropriate material. Immerse yourself in funny things. Pay attention to people's reactions.

When dealing with someone you absolutely hate, make sure to control your emotions at all cost. In the back of your mind, you might be thinking how much contempt you have, but there is no way to be nice if you let your feelings get the better of you. Stay calm, think about your goal of being nice, and let your brain rule the day.  Think about your own behavior, rather than their behavior. Focus on your goal of being nice. Don’t let their comments or actions provoke you into rash behavior. Regardless of whatever they do or say, just stay cool. One tactic to use when talking to someone you hate is to say less than you normally would under other circumstances. Saying less will help you in several ways. It’ll open you up to less opportunities when you may let your contempt or hatred slip from your lips. It will also minimize the amount of time you’re actually engaging the person.  Be polite and kind, but keep your statements and responses relatively short and concise. Don’t be curt, but rather try to come off as quiet and thoughtful. If they question you about something, respond to them by telling them you’ll have to think about it, or you’ll get back to them later. This way, you’ll keep your response minimal and you’ll be able to think about your response. Perhaps the best way to maintain cordial relations with someone you don’t like is to minimize interactions with the person. Minimizing interactions will limit occurrences in which you might be mean to the person. The less face-to-face time, the more likely you’ll be able to control yourself and the less the person will actually wear on you and antagonize you.  Only interact when you have to. Think beforehand of reasons why you may have to excuse yourself. Don’t lie, but instead make obligations that you’ll have to attend to. Some examples might mean meeting up with family or friends elsewhere. Plan your schedule around them as to avoid them when possible. In every interaction with the person you hate, be deliberate about what you say and do. Being deliberate...

Injectable Narcan, labeled as EVZIO, comes in a case. Take the device out of the case, but do not remove the red safety guard until you are ready to inject the medicine. When you are ready to inject, remove the red safety guard. You might need to pull the red safety guard a little hard to get it off. Do not touch the black area of the EZVIO after you get the red safety tab off. This is where the needle is located. Place the black area of the device on the middle of the person's outer thigh so that it is right over the muscle. To inject the medicine, hold the device firmly against the person's thigh for five seconds. You do not need to remove the person's clothing to do this.  You will hear a click and hiss sound as the device automatically injects the medicine into the person's thigh. This is normal and means the device is working. The needle will retract into the device after the injection is complete. . Make sure to call 911 (or emergency services in your country) immediately after giving the injection or have someone call for help while you are giving the injection.

Like pancakes and crumpets, pikelets can be eaten plain, or topped with a variety of ingredients. Butter is a classic topping for pikelets, and you can combine it with other toppings as well.  When the pikelets are still warm, spread a thin layer of butter over each one. You can also stack a few pikelets on top of each other, and then place a dollop of butter on top of the stack. There are many ways that you can use fruit to garnish pikelets. You can serve them with fresh fruit cut into bite-sized pieces, you can top them with jam, or you can make your own fruit puree and drizzle that on top.  Great fruit to pair with pikelets includes strawberries, blueberries, and bananas. Crumpets are traditionally served with salted butter and jam, and you can serve pikelets the same way. Butter isn't the only option for spreading on pikelets, and there are many dairy products you can use to garnish these little griddlecakes, including:  Heavy cream Ricotta cheese  Devonshire cream Whipped cream or whipping cream For people who prefer their pikelets a little lighter, you can also serve them with sweet syrups, such as honey, corn syrup, maple syrup, birch syrup, or chocolate sauce. Make a stack of two or three pikelets on a plate. Top with a bit of butter, and then drizzle the entire stack with the syrup or sauce of your choice.

TL;DR in English: Spread butter on the pikelets. Top with jam or fruit. Serve with cream or cheese. Drizzle with honey or syrup.

The Xbox 360 can easily access the Internet wirelessly in an instant! It has a built in Wi-Fi adapter that allows it to connect to your router automatically. The first time you turn on your console, it will not yet automatically connect to the Internet, since it hasn’t memorized your router’s access information yet. In the Network menu, Xbox 360 will display all the Wi-Fi hotspots within its signal’s reach. Once the Xbox 360 detects your router in the Network, select it and you will be able to access the Internet. You may have to enter your router’s password first, depending on your router’s security settings. Xbox 360 will now remember this wireless setup and use it automatically on your following sessions.  If you have an Ethernet cable connected to your console, it will automatically go into “wired” Internet connection mode. If you want to stay connected wirelessly just disconnect the Ethernet cable from your unit. You may need to adjust your console’s wireless configuration setting if your console fails to connect to the Internet. When in doubt, set everything to automatic or simply reset to default.

TL;DR in English: Access Wi-Fi. Power on your console. Connect your router.

If you are in a situation where other people are shooting each other or someone is shooting at people that aren't you, your main goal should be to get as far away as possible. If you see that you can reasonably get away, do that as soon as you hear shots. If you don't know where the shots are coming from but you know there is a secure room very near by, go there. If you do not see a way to leave, then you will want to find cover. Get behind something that can stop bullets, preferably, like a very solid object. Thin walls or a door is not enough, though it can keep a shooter from realizing you're there. Cars are not bulletproof even though an engine block or some police car doors will stop bullets, even small calibers can penetrate a pair of doors or a trunk. Stay behind the cover, and if it is large enough get on the ground. Lying on the ground significantly reduces the likelihood of you getting shot. Do not stop to gather your belongings before fleeing an area. This can significantly impact the amount of time you have to get away and make a big difference in your ability to get away before the shooter realizes you're there. Just go. You're more important than your wallet. While taking cover or fleeing, be as quiet as possible. Breathe slowly and avoid crying. Alerting the shooter to your presence can put you in danger. Don't talk with people nearby or make phone calls. If you can, turn a phone on silent. Text if you want to get someone's help or attention. Once you are in cover, stay in cover. Do not move from one cover to another unless you absolutely have to. Staying put will also reduce the amount of noise you make and draw less attention to your presence. If you can take cover in a single, secure room, be sure to barricade the entrances. Lock doors, move heavy pieces of furniture to block the doors, cover windows if you can, and turn off lights and anything which makes sounds. Stay quiet and move as little as possible. Once you are in a relatively safe place, either barricaded or at least under cover,...

TL;DR in English: Leave the area if you can. Find cover. Leave your belongings. Stay quiet. Don't move. Barricade yourself. Wait for help to arrive.

If you wear makeup, it can cause an uneven tan. Your tan may even wash away if you have on enough foundation. Wipe your face clean with makeup removal wipes, or apply a gentle face wash to remove any traces of makeup. For a scrub, pick a light facial scrub, and rub it into your face. Rinse it off afterwards. For a peel, choose one that's gentle on your skin and made from AHA. Apply it to your face, and leave it for the amount of time the package says before rinsing it off.  "AHA" refers to "alpha hydroxy acid," which is what works to remove the dead skin. Typically, you'll find exfoliants with AHA, BHA (beta hydroxy acid), or a combination of both. Opt for the AHA formula, as it is oil-free. Picking an oil-free formula is important, as oils can make it more difficult for your skin to absorb the tanner.  Look for exfoliants that describe themselves as "gentle" or "for sensitive skin." You want something gentle, as anything too harsh could remove too much skin and cause streaks. Dead skin cells can result in an uneven tan. Plus, if they slough off after your tan, it will fade much quicker. A light exfoliation will help prevent this issue. Pick an oil-free facial moisturizer. Rub a small amount into your dry skin areas, such as under your nostrils.  This process will help reduce streaking. If you're using a spray tan, apply moisturizer all over, as these tans can be drying. Let your face dry for at least 20 minutes before sealing your pores for the tan. Self-tanner can clog your pores, so you want to tighten them up if possible. Grab an ice cube, and run it over your face several times, until your skin feels slightly cold.  You can also use a cool, damp washcloth over your face for a few minutes instead.  Pat your face dry when you're done. If you get tanner in these areas, it can really stick out. For instance, if you get it in your hairline, it can create an uneven tan along that edge. Petroleum jelly will keep these areas from the fake tanner, creating nice, even edges.  Apply a thin coating with your finger...

Use a butter knife or similar tool, like popsicle sticks or a spatula. Add just enough wax to lightly cover the target area. As you do, spread the wax down in the direction that your hair grows. For example, with your calf, spread it from your knee down to your ankle, not the other way.  With each application, apply it in a fast, clean motion in order to spread it as thinly as possible. Dragging it too slowly over your skin may result in thicker deposits, which will be tougher to remove. This may take some practice, so consider making an extra batch just in case you mess up. Use cotton muslin strips of an appropriate size for the area you’re waxing, or slightly larger. Set it over the wax, with at least a couple inches (about 5 cm) remaining clear of the wax at one end, so you have a tab that’s easy to pull. Then gently rub the portion that’s stuck to the wax in the same direction that your hair grows, without pressing directly down into your flesh. Do this two or three times.   Alternately, you can cut up an old t-shirt or other cloth and use strips of that. If you do, just make sure the material isn’t too stretchy. You want something nice and firm for easy removal. The free end should be in the direction of your hair growth. For example, with your calf, it should be pointing toward your ankle, not your knee. With one hand, use your fingers to pull the surrounding skin away from the fabric, so it’s nice and taut. Then, with the other, take the fabric’s free end in between your fingertips. Quickly pull the fabric free of your skin in the opposite direction that your hair grows.   For example, with your calf, you should pull the strip up toward your knee. As you do, try to keep as straight as possible. Avoid pulling it off at an angle that’s different from the one in which it was applied. Tear it off like a bandaid, in one quick, clean motion. Apply more wax and strips as needed to wax all of the intended area. Depending on how large an area you’re waxing, reheat the mixture if it cools off or hardens to the...

TL;DR in English: Spread the wax. Apply your fabric. Strip the fabric from your skin. Repeat if necessary, then clean up.

It takes about an hour to make, mostly unattended. Reserve about 1/4 cup port. This will be used near the end. These will go in near the end. Do not boil. Stir every 10 minutes or so.  When the sauce has reduced down far enough so it's starting to get thick (about 1 hour), strain the solids from the sauce with a sieve and return the liquid to the saucepan. Add the remaining port, and continue reducing until the sauce is thick and syrupy. If you still have a while until dinner, you can either remove the sauce from the heat, or add more port if you like. About 10 minutes before serving, add in the reserved blueberries. Options. You can add other flavors to the reduction sauce, too. Some flavors that go well with this sauce include black peppercorns, rosemary, or chocolate. Experiment!

TL;DR in English: Do this as the salmon marinates. Fill medium saucepan with port. Add all but 2 tablespoons of blueberries. Bring to a simmer. Serve over the grilled salmon.

Online conversations are becoming more and more an essential part of the daily experience including all forms of education. Your words represent who you are and your personal brand, so putting your best foot forward is important. If you don’t have the benefit of a face-to-face conversation, your image is formed by crafting online communication. Be mindful that the tone of your texts and emails can get lost. Conversations in e-form are one-dimensional and can be misunderstood. You don’t have the benefit of seeing a person face-to-face to observe the body language, voice tone, and emotion of a conversation.  Be polite in your choice of words. Refrain from using all capital letters throughout the text or email. This will be perceived as yelling. Use emoticons, a small facial icon portraying an emotion, to clarify the emotional intent of your comments and conversations. For example, always include a greeting such as, “Dear _____, I was excited to see your email today and thought I would reach out.”  Sign off of by saying, “Thank you for allowing me to explain my situation. I look forward to your reply. Respectfully submitted, _____.” If you have a question, quickly get to asking it. Depending on the recipient, you may only have a few seconds to hook the person’s attention. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Even if you need to express a conflict or dissatisfaction you can maintain a professional demeanor. For example, “Dear ____, It has come to my attention that there has been an error made by your company. I am contacting you today to resolve the matter and hope that the issue can be settled without taking further action.” Whether you spend an hour per day or per month online, everyone has an online reputation. The power of positive actions and the devastating consequences of an online fail can change your circumstances in a heartbeat. Each comment you make on social media is either the potential start of a conversation, or a response that can further the conversation. For example, you can say, “I...

TL;DR in English: Create and respond to emails as if they represent you. Convey a proper tone in texts and emails. Begin and end online communications in a personable, professional manner. Be clear and to the point. Be friendly. Show discretion when having social media conversations. Make your point without being abrasive. Refrain from antagonizing the community. Don’t respond to conversations that will upset you or drag you further into negativity. Use texting to converse with others. Practice common courtesy when texting. Stay connected with family.

Tyrosinase is an enzyme that helps to produce melanin, the pigment that darkens skin, so inhibiting will produce a skin-whitening effect.  Be sure to include the peel, which contains much higher concentrations of arbutin than the fruit.  Asian pears (pyrus pyrifoli) contain much more arbutin than American or European varieties.  The best varieties to use are Yaquang, Hongpi, Quingpi, or Guifei.  Be aware that arbutin has been reported to cause skin irritation for some people. If you develop skin irritation, stop using pear-based masks. Blend half a pomegranate, 2 teaspoons of almond oil, and ½ a tablespoon of honey to make a pomegranate mask. Pomegranate fruit contains punicalagins – compounds that have been shown to directly inhibit melanin production. Blend four slice of pineapple in a food processor along with a half a tablespoon of honey. Pineapple fruit contains compounds that act as tyrosinase inhibitors, thereby whitening skin. Compounds in fig fruit have been shown to decrease melanin and moisturize skin. Mash the fruit and apply in a mask.

TL;DR in English: Use Asian pears in your mask. Make a mask with pomegranate fruit. Use pineapple to make a mask. Make a facial mask using figs.

Literature tests can be in wildly different formats depending on the class and the instructor; they are very different from math or spelling tests. If your professor or teacher gives you the format of the test, make sure that you understand what each component of the test entails. This understanding will aid you in the study process. Here are some common literature exam components:  Definitions of literary terms or phrases Quote identifications, where you are given the quote and need to explain who said it in what context in what literary work by which author. Passage analysis Short answer questions Essay questions, either on one work or linking together multiple works If your class focuses on literary terms, such as “symbol” or “anaphora” or “free indirect discourse,” make sure that you can not only define the literary term but also provide examples of it from texts in your class. Quiz yourself with these flashcards and look for more examples of them in your assigned texts. If you have taken good class notes, rereading through your notes will refresh your memory about the important points made during class. Take note of the important ideas presented in the class, such as “coming of age” or “man vs. nature.” The ideas that stand out in your notes could potentially appear on the exam. Make a condensed study guide, pulling together the most important ideas from your notes. Use the “read-recite-review” method --read over your notes, recite what you remember from them, and then review and assess how much you retained. Understanding all of the material for a literature exam is crucial, so now is the time to look back on that confusing passage of Faulkner that you didn’t understand in class. If there’s a passage analysis on one of these confusing sections, you will be happy that you reviewed it! If your exam requires an essay, you should look through your notes and texts for potential essay topics, such as dreams, motherhood, or nature. Take note of these for potential exam questions that ask you to talk about...

TL;DR in English: Know the format of your test. Make flashcards of important literary terms and words. Reread your class notes. Reread confusing parts of assigned texts. Look at symbols and themes. Utilize your study group.

Intentionally leave one of your pieces unprotected, or at least make it appear unprotected, to trick your opponent into making a rash move. Baiting is the one of the most basic strategies in chess, but also one of the most consistently successful. The "Legal Trap," for instance, involves sacrificing one's queen in order to place the opponent's king in checkmate with minor pieces.   Many of the most complex strategies and sequences in chess are sophisticated forms of baiting.  Make sure you’ve played out every possible follow up move in your head before putting one of your pieces at risk. Even if your opponent has more pieces on the board, you can neutralize their advantage by getting your strongest pieces into clear, well-guarded positions. A good example of this type of placement is to set up one of your rooks at the "7th rank" (one row before the end of your opponent's side of the board). From there, the rook is able to keep the enemy king from escaping, all while picking off your opponent's minor pieces and being free to advance or retreat as needed.  The "Blockade" is another fundamental defensive play that relies on cunning placement rather than capture or evasion. Setting up a blockade is as simple as blocking the path of your opponent's pieces so that they can't advance. While the opponent struggles to get around the blockade without losing valuable pieces, you can use your dominant position to lure them into danger, or escape danger yourself.  Superior positioning can discourage your opponent from following through with their plans and force them to play the game you set for them. If you’re careful and don’t leave any obvious openings, you may psyche your opponent out and put them on the defensive.  Controlling the board is often preferable to simply having more pieces. It’s not enough to simply move one piece, with no thought to the consequences it could have multiple turns down the line. Winning strategies require forethought, and are often devised half a dozen moves or more in advance. Do your best...

TL;DR in English: Bait your opponent by a leaving a piece unprotected. Intimidate your opponent with superior positioning. Think several moves ahead. Examine the entire board. Be patient.

If your toilet already has a caulk seal around the base, you’ll want to remove it rather than apply caulk directly over it. You can find dedicated caulk removal tools in home improvement stores. Run this tool along the joint between the toilet and the floor to scrape out any old caulk.  If you don’t have a caulk removal tool handy, you can also use a utility or razor knife to loosen the caulk at one end. Aim to pull it up in 1 long strip. You can make an old caulking job easier to clean up by applying commercial caulk removers before scraping. If you do, make sure to check the product’s label to prevent any possible damage to your floors or toilet. After clearing the joint of any caulk, you’ll want to get the area as clean as possible. Scoop out any debris, such as paint chips, dirt or rust. Use a general purpose bathroom cleaner and a rag to clean in and around the joint. The cleaner you can get the area, the better of a seal you’ll be able to apply. After cleaning, you can wipe the area with rubbing alcohol to disinfect it.  Press a tissue around the base of the toilet to check for moisture. If you find a leak, remove the toilet and replace the wax ring before continuing. If any water or other liquid gets in the joint, do your best to dry it. If you can’t quite reach it, make sure to allow enough time for it to dry properly. Overnight should be sufficient. Caulking over liquid will trap it, which can cause damage to your flooring. Ensure the toilet is even and tight to the floor. If it moves, tighten the bolts or use a shim to straighten it out. Don’t use the caulk to secure the toilet to the floor if it’s loose or uneven. Not only will this help you get a straighter, smoother seal, but it will prevent any caulk from getting on your floors. Put masking tape on either side of the joint, one following the toilet’s base and the other along the floor. If you’re particularly worried about your caulking abilities, you can use a second strip on either side to double the width of masking tape and protect more of...

Several weeks before attempting to move your baby into their crib, introduce set cues and habits that will let your baby know when bedtime has come.  A set routine will help your baby know that it's bedtime, regardless of where they are sleeping. You can vary the routine as desired, making it as short or long as you need in order to help baby wind down. The elements you introduce into your routine should all be of a calming nature, however. Beginning the process before moving your baby to their crib will help your baby to associate the new routine with bedtime. As a result, your baby will still know that it's time for sleep even when one aspect of the routine—sleeping in your room—ceases. Be consistent. The only way to establish certain actions as a routine is to do them every night. If you skip some nights, you might give your baby mixed signals. Even if you have no pre-set cues that tell your baby when it's time to go to sleep, there might be signs and signals you unknowingly give to your baby that indicate the arrival of bedtime. Analyze your bedtime habits and determine if there are any habits you have established for your child. If there are, continue these habits as much as possible. Try giving your baby 2 or 3 ounces (60 or 90 ml) of formula or breast milk before going to bed. For babies over six months of age, you could also try giving them 1 or 2 tablespoons (15 or 30 ml) of cereal before bed. Stuffing your baby with too much food will only cause discomfort, but giving them a little before bed may help your baby feel more comfortable and last a little longer into the night before waking up.    A short, warm bath can help soothe your baby, easing them into sleep.  Note, however, that some babies will feel invigorated when given a bath. If yours falls under this category, then you should do the bath earlier in the day rather than making it part of your bedtime routine. Follow the bath by wrapping your baby in a warm towel or blanket. Holding your child close will also add an extra level of warmth and...

Search for inspiration before you shop. Use colors that complement your existing decor for a cohesive look. Make a statement with a sofa in a bold color or pattern. Choose a neutral sofa to match any room. Match the color to outdoor scenery to liven up the room.

If you like journaling or keeping lists, spend a few minutes at the end of each day reflecting over what went well, how you felt, and anything that was upsetting. If you aren’t a fan of writing things down, take a couple of minutes to sit quietly and think about your day. Ask yourself these types of questions:  What made me happiest today? What are the positives in my life? What am I putting off or procrastinating? If I had time, what would I like to be doing? Is there negativity I can remove from my life? Instead of focusing on the things you don’t have, choose to focus on what you do have. Commit to finding the good in every day; you could even try keeping a “joy list” where you write down things that happen during the day that make you joyful.  Take time to do things that bring you joy, too, like listening to music, dancing, cooking, reading, or going to a yoga class. Make these things a priority so your week is infused with joy-giving activities. Similarly, taking time to laugh every day can boost your emotional health. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh or try watching a funny movie or stand-up comedian to give yourself some much-needed laughter-therapy. A boundary can be between you and another person, or it can be set up to protect your time so you can take care of yourself. Here are some common ways you can set up healthy boundaries in your life:  Manage work stress by checking your email twice a day rather than getting a constant influx of notifications. Turn off your phone when you’re with loved ones so you aren’t distracted from what’s happening in the present. Distance yourself from someone who is emotionally needy and who takes advantage of you. Tell friends to text or call before they come over rather than just popping in. When someone asks you to do something, take a minute to check in with your gut and your calendar to see if it’s a reasonable thing for you to agree to. If it isn’t, say something like, “Thanks for asking, but I’m going to have to pass this time,” or “I wish I...

TL;DR in English: Take time to check in with yourself every day. Incorporate more joy into your life to increase your sense of well-being. Set boundaries for your time and space so you can take care of yourself. Learn to say “no” so you don’t overcommit your time. Reduce the amount of stress in your life so you can enjoy things more. Connect with friends regularly to build a strong support network. Challenge yourself to learn something new to keep your brain happy. Talk to yourself in a kind way to encourage a positive outlook. Unplug from your electronics to lower stress and practice mindfulness. Seek professional help if your health is interfering with your life.

Purchase a commercial cleaner, such as Goof Off Stain Remover, to finish the job. Look for specific caulk removers. Follow all instructions and warnings supplied by the manufacturer to ensure proper cleaning. Warning: Always pretest new cleaners on old clothing before applying it to important or favorite garments. Antibacterial sanitizing products can remove some stains from clothing, and they may be effective on caulk. First, squeeze the sanitizer onto the stained area. Rub the spot gently with a tissue or a damp rag. You may need to use several applications of sanitizer if the stain is especially bad. Wet the stain with water. Pour baking soda onto the fabric while it's still wet. Massage the baking soda into the fabric with a rag or towel until the caulk comes out. If the stain does not come out completely, keep trying. Put the clothing in the wash afterward, and results will improve even more.

TL;DR in English: Use a chemical cleaner. Try using hand sanitizer. Rub with baking soda.

There are many products available that can remove blood stains. Some of these products are simple household products that you may already have in your bathroom cabinet or pantry. This section will show you how to use these products. Keep in mind, however, that some stains may have permanently set into the fabric, and you may still have some slight residue. Simply sprinkle some salt over the stain and let it sit for a few minutes, then gently scrub it with your finger or an old toothbrush. Rinse the stain well with cold water. If you don't have any salt on hand, but you happen to wear contacts, try using some of the saline solution you use for your contacts. Crumble a few aspirin pills in a small dish and mix them with just enough cold water to create a paste. Spread the paste over the stain and let it sit for 30 minutes or overnight before rinsing it off. Sprinkle some baking soda into a small dish and add in a few drops of cold water. Mix until you get a paste, then spread the paste over the stain. Wait 30 minutes or let it sit overnight before rinsing the garment off with cool water. Simply pour some hydrogen peroxide (the same kind that comes in a brown bottle and that you can find in the first aid section of a drug store) or lemon juice over the stain. Let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse it out using water. Be sure to scrub the stain with you finger or an old toothbrush. Both hydrogen peroxide and lemon juice can lighten fabric, so they are not recommended for bright or dark-colored garments. Simply pour some white vinegar over the stain and let it sit for five to ten minutes before rinsing it out. Simply spray or pour the stain remover onto the fabric and leave it on for the amount of time recommended by the manufacturer; this is usually around five to 20 minutes. These types of detergents are great at breaking down proteins, which is what blood is made out of.

TL;DR in English: Know what you can use. Try using some salt. Make a paste using water and aspirin. Make a paste using water and baking soda. Try treating lighter colored fabrics with hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice. Try using some vinegar. Keep commercial stain removers in mind. Consider using an enzyme-based detergent.

Pick up a few interior design magazines like Home Decor and Country Living to help get you started. These magazines will not only give you some helpful hints on choosing colors but will also be full of pictures of professionally designed rooms that can give you a clear idea of what you want. You can also search online on sites like HGTV or Pinterest for some insight and inspiration. You can also visit furniture stores and home decor shops to see what's in season and on trend. An easy way to choose a color for a sofa is to base it off other colors already in the room. Using complementary colors on the color wheel will guarantee a match and take out some of the guesswork in trying to find the perfect sofa shade.  For example, if you have a lot of orange in the room via lamps, rugs, or paintings, then a couch which has a blue hue would be a great addition. Or, if you have a large violet-colored tapestry, try a chartreuse or green sofa. You could also choose colors in the same family as your existing decor. if you have cool-colored wood floors, try a cool-colored couch. A black sofa would look great with gray flooring. If you're working with a new or empty room, you may want to pick a sofa in a neutral color so you can easily build off of it when decorating the rest of the space. As a sofa is usually the centerpiece of a room, try making it stand out. Pick bold jewel-tones like jade, ruby, and sapphire or a contrasting color to make the sofa pop. For example, if you have bright white carpet, pick a dark gray sofa or something black. You can also pick large patterns like floral prints or chevron stripes to bring the sofa into the forefront. Be mindful if choosing a particular pattern, though. Different fabrics can cause a sofa to cost more in the long run. A sofa in a neutral color like cream, gray, or navy will look great in any room. You can also easily change the look of your sofa by adding throws or pillows. For instance, you could jazz up a gray sofa with a red blanket and a few pillows with a red and white...

TL;DR in English:


Maybe it has been so long since you've really cared about something that it feels like you've lost the ability. But no matter how deep your feelings of caring are buried, they're in there somewhere, and it's time to uncover them. To care is to "feel concern or interest; attach importance to something," to "feel affection or liking." By that definition, who and what do you care about? Make a list of anything that causes you to feel interest, concern, or attachment of any kind.  Write down the names of people you feel attachment to—parents, siblings, friends, and anyone else who has a pull on your heart. If you think about the person often, and you'd miss them if they weren't there, you probably care about them. You don't have to love or even like them to care. By the same measure, write down things besides people you care about. Don't write down the things you should care about, just the things you actually do. Maybe your life is better because you play soccer, or you can't imagine a world without Warcraft. Maybe you care about poetry, or you love a certain movie star. There's no limit to how long your list can be—write it all down, big and small. Be honest with yourself as you make your list, and don't leave anything out. Maybe you've been conditioned to act like you're "above it all," or to hide the things that make you tick. People will try to tell you what you should and shouldn't care about, but you'll have to learn to ignore them for the sake of your own happiness. And in most cases, sticking to your guns and expressing that you care will eventually win you others' admiration. Still aren't sure what matters to you? Take a look at what you do with your time once all your obligations have been fulfilled. When your homework is complete, the workday is over and the chores are done, what do you usually do? The way you spend your free time can be quite telling. You probably use it to do something you care about.  Do you spend your free time calling someone for a long chat, texting your friends, or writing...

TL;DR in English: Make a list of things that interest you. Look at how you spend your free time. Pay attention to what you think about as you're falling asleep. See what piques your interest. Figure out what tugs on your heartstrings.

As part of your ADHD, there may be situations where you are impulsive and say or do the wrong thing. You don't give yourself enough time to think before you speak or act. For example, you tell your boss that an idea he has about sales projections is way off or you may buy yourself a new outfit when you really can't afford it, just because you had to have it.  Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, take a deep breath and think to yourself, "Let me think about this." before you answer someone. Also try putting your finger over your mouth in a thoughtful pose before you speak to give yourself time to think about your answer. You can also talk more slowly, which will give your brain time to process the information before you speak. Also, before you make a decision that involved money or other important things, think about what you are doing and if it is possible or wise to do it.  To help stop yourself from buying something when you're not sure you should, ask yourself a few questions. Before you reach for your wallet, ask yourself if you have the money to buy it, need to items you are about to buy, and if you would feel bad telling someone else that you are buying the items. This will help you think through all of your purchases before you make them. Adults with ADHD have trouble using nonverbal working memory, which means it is hard for them to draw on past experiences to guide their current actions. This means it is often hard for adults with ADHD to change the outcome of a situations they've experienced in the past because they always respond the same way. To help with this problem, take time to think about the decision you are about to make and think about all the times you've faced a similar problem in the past. To help do this, mentally visualize your past experiences by bringing up a video screen in your mind and play back the memory of the last time you had the same or a similar decision to make. Learn from your past mistakes and try to get to a different outcome. Many adults with...

TL;DR in English: Give yourself time to think. Think about the past to help with the future. Visualize the end goal. Own up to your mistakes. Do tasks as soon as possible. Find an ADHD coach. Exercise. Eat better. Give your brain a break.

Don’t just think of depression as “feeling down.” Instead, stress that depression is a treatable, medical condition. Hearing this from someone she trusts can help empower your girlfriend to get help.  If you don't know whether your girlfriend's depression is episodic or chronic, encourage her to see a doctor so she can get the kind of care she needs. Remind her to separate herself from the depression. For example, if she says things like “I”m depressed.” Help her reframe it by saying, “No, Cindy, you are someone who has depression. You are a kind, beautiful person who feels and experiences depression.” Even if your girlfriend wants to get help for long-term or serious depression, her condition can make actually doing so difficult. There are many ways that you can help her connect to therapy and other kinds of help. For instance:  Offer to help her research different kinds of counseling, therapy, and medical treatments. Listen to her thoughts, concerns, and questions about these treatments. Offer to go with her to the doctor or counseling sessions. If she is working with a therapist she doesn’t seem to connect with, encourage her to find a new one. Once your girlfriend begins treatment for long-term depression, it’s crucial that she sticks with it. Since you’re in a relationship with her, you’re in a position to help hold her accountable. Try things like:  Creating a schedule to make sure she takes any medications her doctor prescribed. Offer to give reminders about when to take it, or to ask her if she did. Mark therapy appointments on a common calendar. Continue to ask her how she feels. Resist the urge to be her sole source of social support, which can create an unhealthy relationship dynamic. Not only that, it's unfair for both of you. Instead, help her seek out groups that can help her connect with others who've shared a similar experience. Check out NAMI.org, Mental Health America, or the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance at http://www.dbsalliance.org/. Each of these resources has listings of...
