Place the thick-shelled seeds in a saucer or cup. Fill this dish with just enough water to cover the seeds and let the seeds soak overnight.  Since the shells of these seeds are so thick, they germinate much better when they are softened with plenty of water. The seeds should still be firm after you soak them, but they will feel a little softer and appear more swollen. You should use a 1 to 5 gallon (3.8 to 19 L)  pot or other planting container. Ideally, the container should have four or five drainage holes. If you are keeping the container indoors, set it on top of a saucer to prevent excess water from creating a mess as it drains. Instead of using soil from your garden, fill the planting container with medium to high quality commercial potting mix. Any all-purpose, standard commercial potting mix should suffice. These flowers do not require special soil. Soak the soil with water before you plant the seeds. The soil should be thoroughly moist, but not soggy.  Allow any excess water to drain before you sow the seeds. You will need to make sure that the soil is moderately moist throughout the germination process. This stage will usually take one or two weeks. Gently press each seed 1/4 to 1/2 inch (0.6 to 1.25 cm) into the soil. Space them apart at even intervals. Four seeds should fit into a 1-gallon (4-L) container comfortably. If you are using a 5-gallon (20-L) container, you can sow a dozen or so seeds without crowding them out too much. Set the container in a sunny location where it can receive around 6 hours of sunlight daily.  If the weather is warm enough, you can place the container outdoors on a porch, balcony, or patio. If the plants do not receive enough sunlight, they might look lengthy. Bloom production might also suffer.

TL;DR in English: Soak the seeds. Find a large enough container. Fill the container with potting soil. Water well. Place 4 to 7 seeds in the container. Keep in direct sunlight.

Depending on how long your torso or legs are, you may need to look for petite or extended sizes so that the crotch isn’t too high or too low. If you can, try on a romper before purchasing it to make sure the arms, body, and legs aren’t too constricting. If you’re getting a romper with shorts, the shorts should fall on your mid- to upper-thigh area. If you’re getting pants, the hem should fall right near your ankle.  Part of the joy of wearing a romper is that they’re comfortable and stylish, so you want to avoid styles or sizes that are skin-tight. If you get a romper with pants or shorts that are too long, you could always have it hemmed. Black is classic, but reds, blues, and whites are all great options for a jumper. Having a basic piece will allow you to change up your accessories for different events, meaning that you can easily dress it up or dress it down.  A single-tone romper also lets you transition it from summer to autumn more easily because there won’t be a seasonally-specific pattern on it. Don’t be afraid to get a really bright color, too! If something catches your eye, go for it. For festivals, weekend brunches, and summer time trips, a colorful, bright romper can add a lot of style to your look without requiring a lot of extra pieces. For the hot summer months, it can be super nice to throw on a patterned romper, put on some sandals, grab your bag, and head out the door without having to worry about additional touches. Look for a romper with wider legs for a more bohemian style, or get a romper with tapered legs for a more upscale style. Make sure you try on the romper ahead of time to make sure the pants are long enough for your legs. Rompers with pants also make it easier for you to transition the style to an office job.

If you have long hair, pull all of your hair away from your face and secure it with a hair tie. If you have bangs, you may need a headband to hold them back away from your face as well. After you've opened your pores, gently wash your face with your usual facial cleanser. You don’t need to scrub hard, you just want to have a nice clean face to exfoliate. Wash off all the exfoliating paste with warm, not hot, water. Then splash your face with cold water to close your pores. Make sure you’ve removed all of the scrub, otherwise your face will be sticky or grainy from the leftover scrub. If you have oily, tough skin, you may be able to exfoliate daily without any problem. On the other hand, those with sensitive or dry skin should limit at-home exfoliating to 1-2 times per week. If your skin becomes red or irritated, cut back on how much you’re exfoliating and consult your doctor.

TL;DR in English: Pull your hair back. Use the face wash you usually use. Rinse the scrub off of your face with lukewarm water. Time your treatments.

One of the easiest ways to narrow down possible tree types is to identify if the tree is “coniferous” or “broadleaf”. Coniferous trees will have pointed needles, such as the type you may find on a Christmas tree. Broadleaf trees include everything else, and have wider, flatter leaves. Here are a few other ways you can classify leaves that might narrow your tree type down further:   Scales are a type of leaf similar to needles, but with a much broader face. They will be pointed at the tip, and tend to grow in overlapping clusters to give a scaly appearance. Simple leaves can either be broad or narrow, but they are typically flat with smooth edges. By contrast, jagged or serrated leaves are similar to simple leaves except for the fact that they have pointed ridges along the sides. Lobed leaves are broad leaves with large bumps or "hills and valleys" along the edge. Palmate leaves have multiple skinny leaves coming off one stalk, while pinnate leaves have multiple skinny leaves attached to their own stalks. These are all easily identifiable indicators of different types of tree. While observing the leaves, look around the branches for any fruits, flowers or other features that may help separate the tree from other types. Here are a few types of fruits and flowers to keep an eye out for:  Flowers can be grown in clusters or singularly. Check if the flowers on the tree grow in small bunches or all over the tree individually. The most easily recognizable types of fruit will all look and feel like the types you’d get from the grocery store. This doesn’t necessarily mean they’re OK to eat, but it can help you identify a tree. These are known as flesh, soft, or berry fruits, and will have a soft but slightly firm exterior. Cones or catkin fruit are a cluster of woody, scale-like pieces formed into a conical or cylindrical mass. Pine cones might be the most familiar type, but there are plenty of cones from non-pine trees. Acorns and nuts can be grouped under hard, woody fruit. These will have a tough exterior,...

TL;DR in English: Look at the shape and type of the leaves. Check for any fruit, berries, nuts or flowers on the tree. Examine the color and shape of the bark. Observe the overall shape and height of the tree. Narrow down your location.

. The single best way to get any teacher to look on you favorably is to pay attention in class. The more you pay attention and listen closely, the easier it will be for you to settle down when you're supposed to, and do your best work possible.  If you struggle to pay attention in class, talk to your parents and your teacher to let them know. It's possible you may not being challenged enough, or might have some behavioral problems that need help so you can do your best. Even though it's fun to sit next to your friends, try to hang out with them at recess, on the bus, and during passing periods. It might be better to sit away from them in class, to avoid the temptation to fool around. You might miss important things. When you're in school, you need to do what you're supposed to do as quickly and quietly as possible. If it's time to put away your things and go to lunch, that doesn't mean it's time to joke with your neighbor and stick your gum under the desk. Listen and follow instructions. Follow your teacher's instructions when you're not in the classroom as well. If you have to read a chapter from a book for class tomorrow, do it. Don't skip assignments and think the teacher will like you because you're friendly. Just do your work. It's very important that you be respectful and kind to not only your teacher, but to everyone else in class as well. Treat the other people in your class like you would want to be treated at all times.   Don't talk in class when it's not the right time. Teachers will not be happy at improper interruptions. Some kids think pushing the teachers buttons is a good way of getting other kids to like them, but this is disrespectful to everyone, especially the teacher. When you're in class, you need to do more than just sit silently and pay attention. Often, your teacher will ask for volunteers, or ask questions of the group, and it's important to speak up at appropriate times. Work hard to make the class environment positive.  Work in small groups politely. When it's time to break into...

Let them go barefoot. Choose the right socks. Find the right shoes. Make sure the shoe fits. Maintain good hygiene. Cut toe nails straight across, never rounded. Emphasize good walking habits. Keep your child's diet nutritious.

Start with the right kind of meat and you're well on your way to making a delicious burger. For any type of grilling, you want to start with fresh quality meat. If possible, ask your butcher to grind the meat for you while you wait. Look for 75 to 80 percent lean for the juiciest burgers.  You can choose leaner meat if you prefer. Leaner meat isn't ideal for burgers as they are often cooked at very high temperatures. Meat with a low fat content can become dry when grilled. If you can't get freshly ground beef, choose beef with a bright pink color. Ground meat that is starting to turn gray has likely been sitting on the shelf longer. Try ground chicken or turkey if you are looking to avoid beef. You can also use pre-formed frozen burger patties. Crumble 2 lbs (32 ounces) of ground beef into a large bowl and sprinkle in about 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Use your hands to mix the ground beef and take care not to overwork the meat. Gently toss the ground meat until the seasonings are just combined.  Handle the meat as little as possible. The heat from your hands can actually melt the fat of the burger resulting in a denser patty.  Vary the amount of seasoning based on your preference. Try adding some ground sage or chili powder. If you have started with frozen patties, you can season them as they cook.

TL;DR in English: Buy quality meat. Season your fresh ground beef.

Although there’s some debate, most doctors agree that being barefoot is great for foot development. Shoes can look great and provide warmth for a non-walking child. However, once your kid is mobile, ditching the shoes is best. This allows your kid’s foot to develop naturally and build strength in growing tendons without relying on the support of shoes.   It’s great to let your kid run around barefoot, but make sure to keep an eye on the terrain. Walking on the grass may be fine, but be on the lookout for sharp objects that could hurt your unsuspecting explorer. Your child’s feet may get cold so socks are important, whether they’re sleeping or on the move.  With your kid’s feet constantly growing, you’ll want to choose a sock that fits properly without being constricting. When fitting socks, it’s a good idea to always make sure they’re at least ¼ inch longer than the big toe. Although barefoot is best, your kid will need shoes eventually. Many doctors say shoes aren’t necessary until your kid is walking outside. There are so many stylish options for kid’s shoes but comfort and health should be your top priority.  Avoid overly stiff shoes. You may think they’re more protective, but developing muscles in your child's feet need to grow and develop on their own. An overly sturdy shoe may also do the work that your child’s developing muscles should be doing, hindering their development.    Choose comfort over fashion. It may be tempting to choose a pair of stylish shoes for your new walker, but always choose proper support and fit over good looks. For an early walker, shoes with leather bottoms may be best for traction’s sake, whereas those entering into a walking/running phase may want something a little more athletic. Kids feet are always growing — sometimes as much as much as a half size every two months. You may want to buy big shoes to anticipate that next growth spurt, but shoes that are too big greatly increase the chance of stumbles and falls. Stay proactive to prevent overly tight shoes. You may think your...

The formula for calculating kinetic energy (KE) is KE = 0.5 x mv2. Here m stands for mass, the measure of how much matter is in an object, and v stands for the velocity of the object, or the rate at which the object changes its position. Your answer should always be stated in joules (J), which is the standard unit of measurement for kinetic energy. It is equivalent to 1 kg * m2/s2. If you are solving a problem where the mass isn’t given, you will have to determine the mass yourself. This can be done by weighing the object on a balance and obtaining the mass in kilograms (kg).  Tare the balance. Before you weigh your object, you must set it to zero. Zeroing out the scale is called taring.  Place your object in the balance. Gently, place the object on the balance and record its mass in kilograms. If necessary, convert grams to kilograms. For the final calculation, the mass must be in kilograms. Oftentimes, the problem will give you the velocity of the object. If this is not the case, you can determine the velocity by using the distance an object travels and how long it takes to cover that distance. The units for velocity are meters per second (m/s).  Velocity is defined by the equation, displacement divided by time: V = d/t. Velocity is a vector quantity, meaning it has both a magnitude and a direction. Magnitude is the number value that quantifies the speed, while the direction is the direction in which the speed takes place during motion. For example, an object’s velocity can be 80 m/s or -80 m/s depending on the direction of travel. To calculate velocity, simply divide the distance the object traveled by the time it took to travel that distance.

TL;DR in English: Know the formula for calculating kinetic energy. Determine the mass of an object. Calculate the velocity of the object.

Start by fully disconnecting your Keurig from the power supply. You don’t want to risk damaging the appliance while working with water. Depending on your Keurig model, you should be able to remove the cold water reservoir, lid, drip tray and cover, the K-cup holder, and funnel. Be careful removing the K-cup holder and funnel as there is a needle nearby. Simply grasp the holder from both sides and gently wiggle until it comes free. Place the components into a sink filled with warm, soapy water. A teaspoon of dish liquid should be sufficient. Let them sit and soak while you complete the rest of your surface clean. If you haven’t cleaned your Keurig in a while, you might also scrub out the parts with a soft, clean sponge or cloth. If your reservoir has water sitting it it, go ahead and empty this out before placing it in the sink. Take this opportunity to discard any used pods sitting around as well. When you’ve finished soaking them, rinse off each part with water and allow them to air dry on a clean towel. If you are in a hurry, you can dry each piece with a lint-free towel. However, it is still best to only air dry the reservoir and lid to avoid lint sticking to those surfaces. You should now be able to see the needle that punctures your K-cups and allows for the flow of liquid. Get a large paperclip and apply pressure until the single end comes free. Slowly push this free end into the needle holes. Move the paperclip around just a bit to loosen any grime and then slowly pull it out. Take a soft-bristled toothbrush and dip it in a 50-50 vinegar and water mixture. Lightly brush any spots where you see coffee grounds present. Pay particular attention to the areas right around the needle assembly. Removing these grounds is important because they can accumulate over time and lead to clogs and stoppages. Get a soft cloth and dip it into the 50-50 water and vinegar mixture. Squeeze out the excess liquid until the cloth is damp and then brush it over the outside casing of your Keurig. Scrub firmly against any areas...

If you have a stove-top oven, you can clean the stove surface with baking soda in the same way you would the oven. Simply let baking soda and water/vinegar sit overnight and wipe down in the morning.  Remove grates if possible on a gas stove. Also note that you want to avoid allowing baking soda and water to drip down into the ignition area, so keep baking soda to a paste and apply carefully on gas stoves. Remember to wipe down the cooking surface thoroughly with a clean damp cloth once the baking soda and grime is removed, then let dry. A glass-top electric stove will smoke easily from any baking soda residue or other moisture when it is turned on.

TL;DR in English: Treat a stovetop in the same way.

Get lost in an adventure by using a book to stir your imagination. Curl up on the sofa or in the bed and have a mini-adventure in your head. If you’re not interested in fairy tales or fiction, there’s always non-fiction. If you don’t care for reading, write in your journal to express your thoughts instead. There is so much to see and do on the internet. Read the news.  Read blogs or websites, or make a blog or a website yourself. If you want something more interactive, shop, play games or discover other things to do. There are so many ideas to learn and contemplate.  You can watch alternative news, or watch a tutorial on how to do something. Or, you could simply entertain yourself by watching a show published on the platform or one of the many YouTube content creators on virtually any subject you can imagine such as beauty, comedy, books, fashion. Ted and Tedx brings speakers together to discuss a variety of topics. Usually, the talks are about 20 minutes or less, and the topics vary from everything to linguistics to design. Watch talks and learn from authors, researchers, scientists, designers and many others.

The eyeshadow primer will help the eyeshadow stick on better. It will also help make the colors stand out better, a must for those who'd like a bolder look. This counteracts the effect of nearsighted glasses, especially at the corner of your eye. If you'd like a neutral look, choose a creamy color that is a few shades lighter than your skin tone. If you'd like something bolder and more colorful, choose a color that matches the lightest tone on your face. In general, people with glasses should avoid vibrant eyeshadow colors.  Most makeup artists agree that the thinner and more delicate frames you have, the softer and more natural your eyeshadow should be. Use a fluffy eyeshadow brush to apply this all over your eye, from lash line to eyebrow. Keep it to a light touch, since your glasses will already draw attention to your eyes. This is especially important if you are far-sighted, as reading glasses magnify the eyes. If you have thick, chunky frames, such as tortoise shell frames, consider going darker and bolder. One approach is to use a light color as your base over the entire lid, then a darker color just on your upper lids. If you'd like a more natural look, choose a brown that is a few shades darker than your skin tone. If you are going bold and colorful, choose a color that is a few shades darker than the base color. Apply the darker color from the lash line to the crease using an angled brush. Blend it in upwards, just past the crease, towards your brow bone.

Add decorations to the soaps. Make your own molds.

The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that all pregnant women get certain tests on their first prenatal visit to make sure that you and your baby are doing well. These tests are minimally invasive and will help you get a healthy start to your pregnancy. Ask your doctor if you have any questions or concerns about these tests:  Blood type and Rh type and antibody test Complete blood count Urinalysis and urine culture Rubella immunity test Varicella immunity test Pap smear (if due) HIV antibody screening Syphilis screening Hepatitis B test Gonorrhea and chlamydia test In general, there are two different types of prenatal tests: screening tests and diagnostic tests. Screenings tests can help you identify whether your baby is more or less likely to have certain birth defects and genetic disorders. If a screening test indicates a possible problem or your age, background or medical history puts you at an increased risk, your doctor may recommend a diagnostic test to make a more definitive diagnosis.  Typically, screening tests are less invasive than diagnostic tests. Examples of screenings tests include blood tests, most ultrasounds, and prenatal cell-free DNA screening. Most screening tests are offered during the first or second trimester.   Chorionic Villus Sampling (CVS) and amniocentesis are examples of diagnostic tests. Both will help you be sure of a diagnosis, but also carry a slight risk of miscarriage. Some prenatal tests are routine and are offered to nearly all pregnant people. These include blood pressure checks, urine tests, and blood tests. All are generally considered to be quite safe and can help monitor your own health, as well as the health of your baby.   During a blood pressure check, your provider will measure your blood pressure levels to make sure you don’t have preeclampsia. Your doctor will be able to diagnose preeclampsia if you have high blood pressure and signs of damage in other organs after your 20th week of pregnancy. Although preeclampsia is a serious...

TL;DR in English: Learn the tests recommended for your first prenatal visit. Determine whether the test is for screening or diagnostic purposes. Familiarize yourself with regular blood pressure, urine, and blood tests. Get an ultrasound to monitor fetal growth with little to no risk. Ask for a first trimester screening to test for birth defects. Undergo a quad screen blood test to detect certain conditions. Opt for prenatal cell-free DNA screening to identify genetic abnormalities. Consider amniocentesis for a more definitive diagnosis. Discuss chorionic villus sampling (CVS) after an abnormal screening. Test for gestational diabetes at week 26 or when recommended. Check for Group B streptococcus to avoid infecting your newborn.

You can add solid objects to the soaps if you want to give them extra flair. This is a great way to personalize soaps to make favors for baby showers or kids' birthday parties, or to match your bathroom décor. Consider the following options:  Make floral soaps by suspending dried flower petals in the liquid glycerin before you pour it into the molds. Make birthday party soaps by filling the molds halfway and then inserting a small toy, like a tiny plastic animal or other gadget, in the center of the soap. Pour more liquid soap over the toy to cover it completely. Make baby shower soaps by pouring soap into the molds and then inserting small plastic rattles or other baby items into the soap. If you can't find a mold you like at the craft store, try making your own. Any hard plastic item can serve as a mold. If you use an item that's usually used to make food, be sure to wash it carefully before you use it again.  Ice cube trays make excellent soap molds. Use simple square trays or buy trays with interesting shapes, like fish, shells or skulls. To make larger soaps, use small plastic bowls or cups. You could also use a recycled plastic container, like a yogurt cup.

The wood’s delicate, calming smoke makes it a perfect addition to a home aromatherapy session. Light a stick and place it in a safe receptacle a few feet away to continue burning. Inhale the scent as you meditate, practice yoga, or simply ease your mind after a long day.  Palo santo makes a simple yet exotic alternative to scented candles and ordinary varieties of incense.  Bring a stick and ashtray along with you while you take a long, relaxing soak in the tub. Palo santo is an exceptional natural insect repellent—in fact, that was one of its original uses. The next time you’re having a backyard barbecue or entertaining guests on the patio, leave a stick or two of the wood smoldering nearby. You’ll be able to enjoy your engagement without the constant buzzing and biting.  The sharp fragrance of palo santo is very effective for keeping persistent pests like flies, gnats, and mosquitoes at bay. Try burning palo santo in your porch or foyer to drive out bugs that have already found their way inside. Many enthusiasts believe that palo santo is imbued with powerful spiritual properties that can clear away negative energies. To restore balance in your home, carry a burning stick from room to room, letting the smoke spread to the ceiling. Focus on sending peaceful, loving vibrations radiating outward with the smoke. To dispel stubborn lingering energies, combine a stick of palo santo with a bundle of dried sage—another potent item that’s commonly employed in cleansing rituals. Just as palo santo can be used to banish negative influences from your personal space, it can also work wonders on your mood. Guide the stick slowly up and down the length of your body several times, letting the smoke hover a few inches away from you. Imagine your anxiety, fear, and anger dissipating with each pass. When you’re done, allow the wood to burn out on its own.  If you wish, you can recite a prayer of healing or wisdom while smudging. Remember to keep the palo santo a safe distance from you at all times. Another possible...

Lacquer is a very durable finish that is applied with a spray gun. It is a very high performance finish, drying quickly to a hard, with a durable finish. It is not easy to apply as an amateur, and is not forgiving of mistakes made during application. A spray gun can be purchased for $50-$100, and is necessary if you plan to use lacquer. Maintain a ventilated area and don't spray lacquer near any sparks. Make sure to take the proper safety precautions when spraying lacquer. Lacquer is highly toxic when inhaled, so make sure to maintain a well-ventilated area and wear a respirator. Lacquer should only be applied in very thin coats with your spray gun. Pull the trigger as you get close to the piece, move the gun over the surface, overlapping the previous spray path by about 50%, and release the trigger just after moving beyond the edge. Move the spray gun back and forth over the surface quickly until the entire surface is coated. Keep the gun moving so that you never allow a buildup of lacquer in one specific spot on the wood. This will help you avoid drips and the "orange peel" effect. Wait for the lacquer to dry completely before applying additional coats. Once the surface is dry, which can take around 30 minutes, apply the next coat in the same fashion, making sure that the gun keeps moving and coats the surface evenly. Once you have several coats applied, the surface will be sealed and smooth to the touch.

Many people suffer from dehydration and don’t even know it. Foot cramps are one common symptom, but there are others. Learn to recognize the symptoms so that you can nip dehydration in the bud. Some common symptoms include:  Little or no urine, urine that is dark in color Fatigue Severe thirst Dry mouth Headache Dizziness There’s no universal answer for how much water a person should drink each day. The amount you need depends on your weight, age, diet, and activity level. Though it’s possible to drink too much water, it’s fairly difficult. Err on the side of drinking a little too much, rather than not enough.  A good rule of thumb is to drink six to eight 8oz glasses of water per day. Drink more than that if you are physically active, live in a hot climate, consume excess sodium, or are pregnant or nursing. When tracking your water intake, beverages such as soda, juice, coffee or tea can be counted. However, these drinks may contain sugar or caffeine, and so plain water is a better source for pure hydration. Don’t try to drink all of your recommended water right at breakfast. Instead, sip it throughout the day. Carry a refillable water bottle so that you always have water when you need it.  Know how much water your bottle holds. That will help you keep track of how much water you drink during the day. If you don’t like the taste of water, you can add sprigs of fresh mint, or cut up fresh ginger, citrus fruit, or mint and let them infuse your water with a subtle flavor. Some foods can dehydrate you, but some can actually help you stay hydrated. Fresh fruits and vegetables can be excellent sources of water.  Processed foods often contain excess sodium, which can dehydrate you. If you’re trying to stay hydrated, avoid these. Leafy greens, melons, cucumbers, and apples are great hydrating foods. If you’ve already become dehydrated it may take a little while for your body to return to a state of hydration. Track any symptoms you might have had and see if they improve. If they do, keep doing what you’re doing....

TL;DR in English: Check for symptoms of dehydration. Determine how much water you need. Drink water throughout the day. Eat appropriately to stay hydrated. Continue to look for dehydration symptoms.

We all use words to express ourselves and meet our needs, speaking about 15,000 words out loud a day. A mantra is a sound, syllable, word or phrase that you may use for multiples reasons. Some use mantras to maintain focus during mediation, allow meanings to reach their subconscious, have a spiritual experience, achieve a goal or help change themselves for the better. You will want to start out in a place with few distractions. A bedroom where you can shut the door and windows works fine. Minimize distractions, such as phone calls, notifications and television by shutting electronic devices off so you can focus on your mantra.  You can add incense or candles to your meditation spot to help you get into the mood and focus. Set aside time every day to practice your mantra. You will want at least 30 minutes of uninterrupted time for this. Intentions are the thoughts and emotional drives that initiate every action we take. Whether we decide to go to the store, wave to a friend, say a word or go to work, it all starts with an intention. Think about the reason you want to perform a mantra—for peace, health, success or a spiritual connection? Determine the purpose for your mantra session and focus on that. Most people choose a sitting position but you can adopt whatever position you find comfortable. If you are flexible and used to the position, you may want to use the lotus position. Since your comfort level will determine your ability to relax and focus on your mantra, don’t force yourself to take on a pose that will be distracting or uncomfortable.  It is important to keep your back naturally straight but not rigid. Do not slouch. Many people choose a cross-legged meditation position. If this is a difficult position to maintain, you can make it easier with your back against a wall or use a rolled blanket or towel  under your ankles. Sitting upright in a chair is another option. To do this, keep your feet directly under your knees, press your thighs against the chair and make sure your feet have good contact with...

Suggest that you do a fun activity together, like play pool or throw darts. If the bar has arcade games, challenge her to a game. Doing a fun activity together can help to break the ice and allow you both to relax and enjoy each other’s company. She may prefer to sit and talk with you over a few more drinks, rather than play a game or do an activity. You may suggest a fun drinking game you can play, your friends, and her friends together. This can be a fun way to get to know each other and have fun in a comfortable, casual way. As the night goes on, you should focus on talking to the girl you are interested in. This may mean staying close to her and making jokes to keep the mood light or maintaining fun, light banter while you both play a game or have more drinks. In the opening conversation, follow up on her statements with open ended questions, such as "Oh, you're a football fan. What's your favorite team?" or "What are you studying at college?" If she stick around and continues to pay attention to you, keep the banter light and quick instead. "Enjoying your night?" leads to more flirtation than an interview about her travel history. By this point you probably already know whether she's interested, but asking whether she's single is an obvious signal that you want to take things further. If she says no or seems uncomfortable, the two of you aren't on the same page. You can also try to read her body language throughout the night to get a sense of her intentions. Notice if she maintains eye contact with you, laughs at your jokes, and displays open body language, with her body relaxed and turned towards you. Once you feel confident that she is single and possibly interested, you may make a move. The type of move you make will depend on your intentions.

TL;DR in English:


See your doctor while you're pregnant. Get the first trimester combined test. Ask about the integrated screening test. Consider the cell-free fetal DNA analysis.

You will need at least a ten to twenty gallon glass terrarium for your tree frog. This size can accommodate up to four frogs comfortably. Make sure that you have a properly fitting screen-top. This will ensure proper ventilation while keeping everything secure in your frog’s habitat. Pet stores will often sell these terrariums. You will also be able to find them online. Remember the more frogs the larger the terrarium will have to be. The material lining the bottom of the cage is called a substrate. For your red-eyed tree frog, you should put down about two or three inches of non-fertilized potting soil. You can mix this soil with bed-a-beast bedding, orchid bark, coco coir, paper towels, or peat moss to give it more texture. The substrate should be scooped out and replaced every two to three months. Your frog will appreciate some items around the cage to climb and hide under. Find some natural, leafy looking furnishings to place in the cage. Make sure that these are non-toxic to prevent damage to your frog's sensitive skin.  Coconut halves make great dens for the frogs.  Leaves, driftwood, rocks, cork, and branches can give your frog something to climb and explore.  You can put in both fake and living plants, but fake plants are easier to keep alive. During the day, the cage will need to be between 78 and 84 degrees F (25 and 28C). At night, the temperature can drop no more than ten degrees. If your room temperature is cooler than this, you may have to invest in heaters for your terrarium. There are several options for heating the terrarium:  Low wattage heat bulbs can attach to the screen top. They provide enough heat without burning your frogs. Heat pads can rest beneath the cage. Look for ones specially designed for reptiles at your pet store. Be warned that if water touches the hot glass, it can crack the glass.  Red or nocturnal bulbs can be left on all night to ensure around the clock warmth.  Red-eyed tree frogs are nocturnal so extra lighting isn’t necessarily. Bulbs would simply provide warmth.

TL;DR in English: Invest in a glass terrarium. Lay down a proper substrate. Furnish with leaves and natural décor. Keep the habitat warm.

Your doctor or pediatrician can tell you if your child has Down syndrome once they are born, but if you want to know beforehand, ask about the various types of screening tests. Prenatal screening tests can show if there is an increased likelihood your unborn baby has Down syndrome, but they are not a perfect estimate.  If a prenatal screening test shows an increased likelihood your baby has Down syndrome, then your doctor will recommend a diagnostic test to be more certain. The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists recommends that all women (regardless of age) get screening tests for Down syndrome. There are different screening tests related to how far along you are in your pregnancy and include: the first trimester combined test, the integrated screening test and the cell-free fetal DNA analysis. The first trimester combined test is done within the first 3 months of pregnancy and involves two steps: a blood test and an ultrasound exam. The blood test measures levels of PAPP-A (pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A) and HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone being produced in your body. (HCG). In addition, a painless ultrasound exam is used on your abdomen to measure an area on the back of the fetus's neck called the nuchal translucency.  Abnormal levels of PAPP-A and HCG typically indicate something unusual with your baby, but not necessarily Down syndrome. The nuchal translucency screening test measures the amount of fluid that's collected there. Abnormally high amounts of fluid usually indicates a genetic disability, but not just Down syndrome. Your doctor will consider your age (older equals higher risk), the results of the blood test, and the ultrasound images to decide if it's likely your fetus has Down syndrome. Just keep in mind that these types of tests are not done in every instance of pregnancy. However, if you are over 35, then you are at higher risk of having a baby with Down syndrome and your doctor may recommend testing. The integrated screening test is done during the first...

Wash your face twice a day. Exfoliate your face at least once a week. Avoid touching your face. Use sunscreen daily. Use oil-free or mineral make-up. Drinks lots of water.

Chlorine is measured in parts per million, or ppm. If the levels are lower than 1 ppm, there may be harmful bacteria lurking in the water. Conversely, if the chlorine levels are too high, you might experience skin and eye irritation. It's much less work to use chlorine tablets or sticks rather than granular chlorine, which has to be pre-dissolved in water and added on a daily basis. The most common and least expensive form of chlorine is 3 in (7.6 cm) tablets, which are slow-dissolving and require less maintenance. If you have an above-ground pool, a small in-ground swimming pool, a hot tub, or a spa, 1 in (2.5 cm) chlorine tablets are ideal.  The active ingredient in chlorine tablets and sticks is called “Trichlor” (or Trichloro-S-Triazinetrione), and the active ingredient in granular chlorine is called “Dichlor” (or Sodium Dichloro-S-Triazinetrione).  Look for a concentration of 90% Trichloro-S-Triazinetrione in chlorine tablets or sticks.  If you choose to use granular chlorine, look for a concentration of 56% to 62% Sodium Dichloro-S-Triazinetrione in granular chlorine. Read the packaging on the tablets to find out how many to use based on the existing chlorine levels in the water and the size of your pool. Put the tablets in a floating chlorine feeder and put the feeder in the pool. As the feeder floats around, the chlorine will gradually dissolve and be distributed throughout the pool water.  Instead of a floating feeder, some pools have a skimmer basket that hooks on the side of the pool. If your pool has this, drop the chlorine tablet right into the basket. Skimmer baskets are commonly used with above-ground pools. Other pools come equipped with chemical feeders. Chemical feeders slowly meter out precise amounts of chlorine into your pool water automatically and offer very precise control over the amount of chlorine being added to the swimming pool. If a feeder is adjusted properly, you may not have to worry about your chlorine level for a week or more. If you add too much chlorine or shock to your...

TL;DR in English: Adjust the chlorine levels if they are above or below 1-3 ppm. Use chlorine tablets to easily increase the amount of chlorine in the pool. Put the chlorine tablets in a floating chlorine feeder. Lower the chlorine levels with a chlorine neutralizer. Maintain cyanuric acid levels at no higher than 40 ppm.

If you have a large number of blackheads, or acne, considering using a face wash that contains salicylic acid.  Always wash your face with warm water to open the pores before applying the cleanser.  Always apply a moisturizer to your skin after you’ve finished washing your face.  To open your pores even more before cleansing, steam your skin by placing your face above a bowl of hot or boiling water. Always wash your face after any activities that cause you to sweat heavily. Exfoliation can irritate your skin if it is done too often.  Start with exfoliating once per week.  If your skin isn’t irritated, you can add a couple more times a week. Your hands touch everything else, so you want to prevent your hands from touching your face and transferring oil, dirt and bacteria to your pores.  This includes preventing your hair from touching your face if possible.  Your hair naturally contains oils that can get on your skin and block your pores. SPF protection should be in any moisturizer you put on any part of your body.  And you should use moisturizer with SPF protection year-round on your face. Powder-based make-up is also better than cream-based make-up.  Always remember to thoroughly remove all your make-up before you go to bed. Also remember that it’s important to wash your make-up tools and brushes regularly as bacteria and dirt build up on them over time.  Wash them with warm water and a gentle soap. Hydration is extremely important for all your skin and the best way to hydrate your skin is simply by drinking lots of water.

TL;DR in English:


Train for your position to get the most out of your fitness. Play games and scrimmages to train your whole body at once. Replace the majority of long distance runs with interval training Build agility and reaction speed with plyometrics and direction changing workouts. Recover and build endurance with long distance runs and endurance activities. Build your upper body to improve your game play. Push yourself as hard as you can in practices, scrimmages, and drills.

You may find you have more to wear than you think. Look for baggy shirts and sweatshirts, along with anything else that fits looser, such as yoga pants and leggings. You can also wear things like loose cardigans and blazers.  Also, look for loose button-downs or other shirts that are extra-long so they can help cover your bump. Don't forget to check out your accessories. A great statement necklace, a colorful scarf, or a unique bracelet can make a basic outfit look special. When you start developing a bump, you can still rely on stretchy shirts for a while. The key is to pick tops that are long and flowy. That way, they'll stretch over your bump without leaving your belly peeking out the bottom. You can see ruching in shirts and dresses by looking for gathered fabric along the side hem. The benefit of ruching is it gives the garment extra stretch because there's extra material to go around. Often, shirts with ruching will last throughout your pregnancy. Wrap a rubber band through the button loop on your pants, stretch it over the button. This trick will give you some extra breathing room as your baby bump grows.  You can also unbutton the top button and hold it together with a safety pin. Put on a wide belt or long shirt to hide your makeshift pant extenders. Because low-rise pants sit lower on your waist, they can sit under your growing belly. Just be sure to pick longer shirts so you're not exposing your belly bump to everyone (unless you want to). While this won't work for every person, it can help your bras fit for longer. Extenders fit between the closures, making the band bigger. Though it won't make the cup size bigger, it will give you some breathing room. You can find these online or in most stores that sell bras. These won't be as form-fitting as maternity clothes. However, they will help you transition after your pregnancy back to regular clothes when you still have your baby belly. This works great for t-shirts and other stretchy items.

TL;DR in English: Check your closet before shopping. Opt for longer shirts and tunics. Look for shirts and dresses with ruching. Make your pants stretchier with a rubber band or hair tie. Try low-rise options to fit pants under your bump. Buy an extender for your bras to let them last through your pregnancy. Choose clothes with stretch that are 1-2 sizes bigger.

Different soccer players have different training needs to be successful. A goalie, after all, doesn't need to be able to run for as long as a center midfielder. But even similar positions, like outside defenders and midfielders, can focus on slightly different training regimens:   Goalies: Need quick, powerful reactions and very little long-distance stamina. Focus on strength, reactions, and a slim, quick figure.  Defenders: Need upper/lower body strength and sprinting speed. Rarely required to jog or run for long, continuous times, they need to be able to get to every ball and win it in the air or on the ground.  Midfielders: Need to be able to run for days. They should have exceptional stamina and above-average speed. Quickness and strong foot skills are a must.  Forwards: Need a balance of speed and strength, like defenders, but must also be able to jog for days to confuse defenders and open up offensive space. The best way to get in soccer shape is to play soccer. While you will need to work on additional training as well, games force you to work on endurance, strength, speed, and agility in real-life situations. As long as you're exhausted at the end of the game, you've gotten a good training session in. When playing games for fun, move around and play multiple positions. This will help you learn the game and build full-body fitness. . Interval training is when you alternate hard sprints or effort with short rest periods, teaching your body to get to top speed and recover your energy quickly. It is much more game-realistic than an hour of jogging, and is proven to get faster results. A sample workout might look like this (note that there is no "rest" period. Jogging is your rest).  Jog for 5-10 minutes to warm up. Sprint for 30 seconds. Jog for 1 minute (1:30 if struggling) Alternate sprinting/jogging for 9 more sprints. Jog for 5-10 minutes to cool down. Lower the rest period as you get better, eventually aiming for a 30-second sprint and jog. Being quick on your feet is essential to becoming a killer...

Don’t put yourself in a place where you will be self-conscious or experience interruptions.  Libraries are designed for finding great books and reading!  You can grab a book and get started right away in the quiet of your local library branch. Go to a park or somewhere outdoors.  If you associate reading with oppressive indoor settings, going outdoors can be a great way to break up the monotony.  Try walking on the treadmill with a book. Some people simply cannot sit still while reading. Some studies say that you can remember more later if you read while walking on the treadmill, and the jolt of dopamine you get from multitasking may encourage you to keep reading. Many people think that they do not have time to read, but the truth is that they just have not found the time.  Some easy tweaks may add an hour or so per day of extra time.  If you normally have down time before or after work (extra time waking up or winding down), you can make reading a part of that routine. If you spend time checking your email or playing games as a matter of routine, put your book by your laptop or on the couch to remind you to read instead. Small adjustments make a difference. Getting up a little earlier can make time for reading in your breakfast routine.  Getting to the gym earlier can make an extra half-hour for reading before bed. Goal-oriented reading is less pleasurable than relaxed reading. You will feel happier after reading if it is done without any stress on finding information or reading a certain number of pages.   Go to bed a half hour or hour earlier than usual, so that you have time to read before you get too tired. Reading under the light of a lamp is much healthier than looking at the blue light of a phone screen or e-reader. It's good to read in the morning as you can get an inspirational and fresh start to your day. Be aware that the light from an e-reader device may disrupt your sleep. A real book might be a better option before bed. This is not the most relaxed way of reading, but if you are an on-the-go...

Go along the spines to find the letter your subject should be under. For instance, if you're looking for "Civil War," your subject will be under "C." Keep in mind that many encyclopedias have so many volumes that some letters may be spread out over multiple volumes. For instance, the Civil War might fall under a volume that is "Ci to Co." Flip through the volume to find your topic. The subjects are all alphabetical, so you'll find your subject according to its first few letters. Remember, once you've found the section for the first letter, narrow down by the second letter, then the third, and so on.  For instance, "Civil War" will be alphabetized by "C," then the "i," then the "v," and so on. The encyclopedia will have words at the top of the page to show you where you are in the alphabet. You can also simply take down a volume and look through it to find a topic that interests you. Each volume will have a range of topics, even in a more specialized collection, so just look through it until you find something that interests you.  Try keeping your sessions to twenty or thirty minutes. Flip to something you find interesting, such as an instrument you play or want to play. For instance, you could look up the saxophone just as a place to start. Browsing a print collection is actually much easier than browsing an electronic collection because you can easily turn the pages to go through a wide range of subjects.

This stance is the neutral position from which you’ll start nearly all of your offensive and defensive moves. Start from a standing position. Separate your feet by about 2 feet (0.61 m). Then, bend your knees and slightly arch your back so you’re ready to spring in any direction. Lastly, bend your elbows at about 90° and put your hands in front of you.  A common alternative to this is the staggered stance. In a staggered stance, one foot is about 8 inches (20 cm) in front of the other and carries the majority of your weight. When in either stance, your elbows should be between your thighs. If your elbows stray outside of the them, your opponent may under hook your elbows. Keeping your legs wide and your torso low to the ground will help with this. So, keep your weight spread between both of your feet and always stay balanced on the balls of your feet. Get used to moving around in this crouched position, while maintaining the standard wrestling stance. Maintaining a low center of gravity will make it difficult for an opponent to topple you over. Sprawling is simply falling to your hip from your stance in order to prevent your opponent from performing a takedown move. When your opponent takes their shot at your leg(s), lower your hips, then drop to one knee and drop your hip on top of your opponent’s upper back. Push your opponent’s head down to the mat with one hand. This will prevent them from performing a takedown. The sprawl moves your legs out of range from someone shooting on you. This is a great way to defend against an opponent, and opens the best options to counter-attack.

When dealing with small pieces of fiberglass, place your panel on a sturdy working table. Though it does not need to be as high-quality as those used for miter saws and jigsaws, make sure it does not wobble and can keep the panel firmly in place. Since you are dealing with smaller segments and a handheld saw, cover the area you plan on cutting through with a layer of masking tape to avoid chips or splinters. Make sure the tape extends at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) beyond the spot in question. Use a small pencil to mark the line where you intend to cut. Because the panel is covered with tape, double check to make sure the line is accurate and matches all your measurements. Place the back edge of a fine-toothed hacksaw blade directly against your cutting line. To make sure you don't get injured, hold the saw so its handle is pointed toward yourself, protecting your body from the blade. In slow, steady motions, pull the hacksaw toward and away from yourself to saw through the fiberglass. This may take some time, since the hacksaw is a manual tool. To make sure the panel is cut cleanly, do not rush the process.

One of the simplest, but most common, logos, this type uses only text, often with a unique font that captures the company's vibe. Think You Tube or Microsoft. These logos put the company name front and center.  Text logos are very common with Fortune 500 companies. The challenge is making sure they're not boring. However, wordmark logos will help brand your company because they focus on the company's name. Text logos are easy to reproduce in marketing materials. Don't choose a text logo if your company's name is too common. Google uses a text logo because its name is unusual and thus memorable. Be careful to space the letters properly. This is called "kerning" in the industry. Choosing the font carefully helps capture your company's feel. Serif fonts are considered more traditional, and san-serif fonts are modern. Pick a font that conveys your company's attitude. You can purchase fonts on the Internet or find free versions.  I you don't feel comfortable making the logo yourself, though, you could hire a marketing or PR company that will do it for you.  If you need a logo fast, a wordmark logo is the way to go. It's simplest. Text logos won't work well for companies that market in countries without the Latin alphabet. Lettermark logos also contain only text, but they showcase your company's initials instead of its full name. CNN and IBM are companies that use lettermark logos.  Lettermark logos are a good choice if your company name is very long or technical. Small products without much space for branding often use lettermark logos.   It can take time and investment to educate consumers about your initials, so don't pick a lettermark logo if you don't have the ability to do so. Sometimes companies decide to rebrand themselves by using a lettermark logo. Think KFC. These logos are sometimes called symbol or icon logos instead.

If your medical equipment is in good condition and it is still currently used by medical professionals, you will likely be able to find a buyer for it. However, some equipment is in higher demand than others and you should be aware of high resale value items. The prices for these items may be competitive and you may want to factor resale value when you are buying medical equipment as well.   Popular medical equipment items for resale include:  Wheelchairs Anaesthesia machines Surgical tables Defibrillators Ventilators Infusion and syringe pumps Patient monitors Incubators Infant warmers Surgical microscopes EKG machines Before you can sell your used medical equipment, you will need to clean it up and make it look almost as good as new. If you are selling a used wheelchair, for example, you should use cleaner to wash and clean the chair. You should also wash the wheels and make sure the wheels still work properly. Cleaning the equipment will ensure it is in selling shape and will look appealing in advertisements. It is also easier to assess how used the equipment is when it is clean and looking its best. You may then factor in its level of use in your pricing of the equipment when you sell it. Once you have cleaned up the equipment so it looks its best, you should take four to five good photographs of the equipment at different angles. You can then use these photographs in your advertisements for the equipment.  Use a good digital camera to get several clear shots of the equipment. You may want to have someone use the equipment as you photograph it so you can show that the equipment is in good working condition.

You can buy aloe vera plants online or at a local greenhouse. To extract the gel, slice the plant straight down the middle of the leaf. Move the knife slowly to avoid slipping up and accidentally cutting yourself. Make sure to use a sharp knife, as it can be difficult to make a clean cut with a dull blade. Use a tablespoon to extract two tablespoons of aloe vera gel. Aim for the clear gel inside the leaf. There will be some yellowish gel near either end of the leaf. Do not gather this gel as you should only use clear aloe vera gel on your hair. Place the gel in a small container you can set in the shower, like a Tupperware container. Depending on the size of your plant, you may be able to get enough aloe vera gel from one leaf. However, if your plant is smaller, you may have to collect gel from another leaf until you have two tablespoons. When you shower, you can apply the gel when you would normally apply your conditioner. Work it into your hair, moving from the roots to the tips. Use it exactly how you would use your normal conditioner. For example, if you normally let conditioner sit in for a few minutes in the shower, do so. After apply the gel to your hair, rinse it out. Make sure to get all the gel out of your, especially the sticky bits. If you have a hair type that responds to aloe vera gel, your hair should be noticeably softer.

Flip the bike over so it’s resting on the handlebars and seat. Install the bottom bracket. Assemble your right crank. Attach the right crank to the bottom bracket. Attach the left crank. Attach the final spindle bolt. Install the pedals.

Locate the small tag on the inside of the shoe. All of the information listed on the manufacturing sticker should also be on this tag. Make sure the information is exactly the same as what’s on the box sticker, especially the style number.  The stitching on the tag ought to look uniform and neat. Spelling errors on this interior tag are almost always an indicator of inauthentic Jordans. Jordans have a very specific label under the tongue. Lift up the tongue and check out the underside. You should see the words “greatest player ever” embroidered there. The embroidery should be white, easy to read and look professional. Double check the details on the logo located on the back of the shoes (or sometimes on the tongue). The logo should appear crisp and uncompromised. Look at the hands, basketball and feet to ensure everything looks properly proportioned. Nothing should look blurry or smudged. Fake Jordans may have an uneven or lumpy Jumpman, with poor stitching and unusual proportions. The spaces between the shoelace tabs should be even. All of the shoelace tabs will be the same size and shape. Make sure they are all attached firmly, with the same amount of tension. Fake Jordans will often have some shoelace tabs that are looser than others. Inspect the shoes carefully for neat and professional looking stitching. Everything should look evenly spaced, with no unfinished edges or frayed threads. The stitching on the heel is often a giveaway – if it looks poorly done or uneven, question the authenticity of the shoes. This is where the side fabric transitions into the front of the shoe. It is usually a different fabric and color than the toe section. On real Jordans, the midsole point will be in front of the bottom lace hole. On fake Jordans, the midsole point will often match the bottom lace hole. View the midsole tips. The “mountains” of the sole molding should be sharp tips, not curved edges. Go to Footlocker.com or Nike’s own site to find the authentic colorways. Colorways are a color combination that is updated...

TL;DR in English: Match the style number of the tag to the one listed on the box. Examine the label under the tongue. Check the proportions of the Jumpman logo. Inspect the detail around the laces. Look for high quality stitching. Check for a midsole point. Research the known colorways for that particular type of Jordans.

Or, if you have a bike repair stand, mount your bike to it now. Bike stands can run you well over $100, but if you work on your bike often, you will help prevent strain on your back and knees by investing in one. The bottom bracket is composed of an internal spacer and two bearings that all hold the crankset. Run the spacer through the bottom bracket shell (the short tube that the seat tube and down tube attach to). Hold one side of the spacer in place with a finger as you set in the bearing on the other side. Once you’ve set the bearing in place, tap it in firmly with a rubber mallet. Repeat to install the bearing on the other side. The crankset is what attaches to the chain and the peddles to spin the wheels when you peddle. It's mainly composed of two crank arms (each one attaches to a peddle), a spindle (a rod that both crank arms attach to), and a sprocket (a wheel with cogs that attaches to the chain).  Insert the spindle into the right-side crank arm by matching up the splines (grooves) and pushing the spindle in. Screw in the bolt until it won’t twist any more. Slide the sprocket down the spindle, position it on the crank arm, and attach it with the sprocket bolt.  Depending on the type of crank you’re using, you may have to put the sprocket on first, and then slide the spindle through and fasten it. Slide a crank spacer over the spindle so that it sits beside the sprocket. Insert the spindle into the bottom bracket and push it all the way in. Use a rubber mallet to give the crank a gentle tap or two to ensure it is firmly in place. Position the crank so that it is facing down and is perfectly vertical. Slide a spacer onto the left crank arm and insert it into the bottom bracket, so that it's vertical and facing upwards. Align the two cranks so that they are even, making sure they form a straight line (with the right crank facing down and the left crank facing the ceiling. Tap the left crank arm gently into place with the rubber mallet. Then, tighten the bolts. This will completely lock the cranks...

TL;DR in English:


Opt for "adjuvant" chemotherapy for stage II or III colon cancer. Proceed with chemotherapy as the mainstay of treatment for stage II or III colon cancer. Talk to your doctor to decide on a drug regimen for chemotherapy. Take medications to manage the side effects. Be aware that radiation is rarely used in the treatment

Set a target. Get rid of your earphones. Turn off the radio. Leave your MP3 player at home. Get out more. Remember the health benefits.

If you had stage II or III colon cancer, or if your surgeon detected the spread of cancerous cells to your lymph nodes while performing surgery, you will most likely be offered a course of adjuvant chemotherapy following surgery. The goal of adjuvant chemotherapy is to target any "micrometastases" (in other words, any small cancerous cells that are undetectable to the naked eye) and to "kill" them, so as to greatly diminish the chance of a future recurrence of your cancer.  Adjuvant chemotherapy is not necessary for stage I colon cancer, because stage I cancer is confined to the bowel and holds next to zero risk of having spread anywhere else in the body. There is an online program called "Adjuvant!" that helps both physicians and patients to assess the possible risk of recurrence of their colon cancer, alongside the pros and cons of proceeding with adjuvant chemotherapy. This tool can be extremely helpful in allowing patients to see the benefits and risks of proceeding with chemotherapy treatment, and to make an informed decision as to whether it is something that interests them. While surgery is the first-line treatment for stages I, II, and III colon cancer, chemotherapy is the key aspect of treating stage IV. Unfortunately, stage IV colon cancer is technically "incurable," because it has already metastasized to other areas of the body. However, seeking treatment can improve your prognosis and expected lifespan, as well as decrease the symptoms you may be suffering from, so it is certainly worth discussing with your doctor as a treatment option.  The reason that chemotherapy is the primary mode of treatment for stage IV colon cancer is that the cancer has spread systemically (throughout your body), and therefore a "systemic treatment" (a treatment that travels throughout your bloodstream to all areas of your body, such as chemotherapy), is needed to have the desired impact. Chemotherapy for stage IV colon cancer is often accompanied by surgery to remove any masses in the colon and/or elsewhere in the body....

There is ample evidence that controlling your behavior is an exercise, which means that you will get better through practice. Therefore, set an objective goal, and try to reduce the time you listened to music by a few minutes each day until you reach your target. Make this goal realistic. If you listen to music for twelve hours each day, a good target would be to listen to music for ten hours each day.  Once you finally reach your target, set a new one. If your target is too hard, feel free to set an easier one. Don't make this too hard on yourself either. In the end, you should be listening to music for three hours maximum. Waking up everyday and seeing your iPod and earphones is only going to tempt you. If you feel bad about throwing your earphones away or if they cost a lot of money, sell them or ask a friend to hold onto them for you. That way, you won't be able to get them without having to dig them out. Remember to try and reduce your music time by half an hour each day (or each week if that is too hard). If you or your parents drive, the car radio will probably be on, but do your best not to turn it on. If you're not driving, kindly ask your parents to keep the radio off and explain that you're trying to spend less time absorbed in music. If all else fails, noise-cancelling earplugs are a nice alternative. Normally, you would probably bring your iPod or other music device when you go out. Don't tempt yourself! Instead, leave it at home. If you're using a phone that plays music, and you want it with you, leave your earphones at home. Resist the urge to buy new ones. You can do this by bringing less money and reminding yourself that you can't get what you really want to get if you waste your money on earphones. Try to avoid situations where you are most likely to listen to music (e.g. when you are at home). It is good if you can replace your old problem with something new and productive.Buy a bike, make some friends or just go for a nice walk. Whatever you do, make it fun.

Join a support group for people with eating disorders. Ask your partner, spouse, friends, or loved ones for support. Take parenting classes and seminars. Call a helpline if you’re feeling depressed or suicidal. Avoid toxic and negative people. Stop thinking about losing the baby weight after pregnancy.

When choosing broths, go with the low-fat variety. If you are making a creamy soup and the recipe calls for heavy cream, use a lower-fat substitute, such as 2% milk. You could also try a non-dairy milk if you are vegan or lactose-intolerant. Need a thick soup? Switch out the sour cream for some pureed, mild-tasting white beans. This would also give you an extra dose of fiber, protein, and other nutrients. Cutting fats and calories are not the only ways to make soup healthier. Another common culprit in soup is the excess sodium, and you can make your soup healthier by using low-sodium broths and less salt. This does not mean that your soup has to be flavorless. Try adding some fresh or dried herbs, such as: cilantro/coriander, ginger, garlic, or pepper.  Spices not only add flavor, but they also contain antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties, both of which are beneficial to your health.  Other ways to add a salty flavor is to use lemon juice, lime juice, or rice vinegar.  Switch out seasoned salt (ie: garlic salt) for herb-only seasoning, such as: garlic powder or onion salt. Vegetables are a great way of introducing antioxidants, fiber, minerals, and vitamins to your diet. Beans can add fiber and protein while making your soup thicker. You can use fresh, frozen, or canned vegetables. If you are using canned vegetables, however, make sure that they are low in sodium. Meat is a great way of adding protein to your meal, but it can also add unhealthy fats. Whenever you can, try to use lean meats, such as chicken and turkey, in your soups. If you can't replace the meat you are using, go for a lean or reduced fat option, such as:  Extra-lean or lean ground beef Ground chicken breast or turkey breast Turkey bacon or Canadian bacon If your soup recipe calls for pasta, noodles, or rice, try using whole wheat pasta, whole wheat noodles, or brown rice instead. If you don't like brown rice, you could also try wild rice or pearl barley. Whole grains are full of beneficial fibers, vitamins, and nutrients. There is...

TL;DR in English: Use a base that is low in fat. Watch the sodium. Add some vegetables or beans for extra fiber. Watch the kind of meat you add into your soup. Use whole grains. Go easy on the extras, such as bacon, cheese, and sour cream. Finished.

Your therapist can refer you to a local support group or you can find your own. These meetings will connect you with other pregnant women with eating disorders and survivors of eating disorders. Organizations that offer support groups for pregnancy and eating disorders include SEED (UK) and the National Eating Disorder Association (US). They can encourage you to eat healthfully, see your doctor regularly, and strive for healthy, moderate weight gain. Just as importantly, they can offer love, compassion, and emotional support.  It’s crucial to avoid isolation, which can trigger an eating disorder. Try to stay engaged with the outside world.  Ask your friends and family not to make comments on your weight gain or changing body if these comments will make you feel bad. Pregnancy can be stressful, especially if this is your first baby. To help you regain a sense of control over your life, try attending classes on pregnancy and parenting. These classes may relieve some of your tensions or fears, helping you stay calm. Maternity centers and hospitals often offer Lamaze classes and parenting courses. You may be able to sign up for these through your obstetrician or online. If you’re suffering a crisis, know that you are not alone. Reach out to a helpline to talk to someone who can coach you through this difficult moment.  In the US, call the National Eating Disorder Association Helpline (US) at (800) 931-2237 or the National Suicide Hotline at 1-800-273-8255. In the UK, call the Beat Helpline at 0808 801 0677 to discuss your eating disorder or Samaritans at 116 123 if you are feeling depressed or suicidal. In Australia, call Butterfly National Helpline at 1800 33 4673  for support about your eating disorder or Lifeline Australia at 13 11 14. If you have friends or family members who judge you harshly, criticize your actions, or make you feel bad about yourself, avoid them.

Remember to breathe and let go. Don't be concerned if it sounds weak or airy. Know that cracking is normal. Keep your larynx low. Keep practicing.

This doesn't only apply to work—also avoid challenging sensory situations, people who make you feel on edge, or activities that are difficult for you. You're dealing with loud and painful sounds—you don't need anything else on your plate. This can help you get into a zone and pass the time quickly. Try starting a fun project you've been looking forward to, talking with people (in person or online) who share your interest, or researching your favorite things. Think of the exercises that have been most helpful to you, and spend 5 or 10 minutes focusing on them. Whenever you find your thoughts wandering back to worries, gently guide them back to your exercise. Here are some ideas to try:   Meditation EMDR techniques Imagery  Engaging the senses (besides hearing) Progressive muscle relaxation Breathing Go to people who make you feel less stressed, and focus on them. Ask them about their day, or what is on their mind. If they're doing something, see if you can help. They can help distract you and make you feel a bit better. For disorders such as panic attacks, you may have been described anti-anxiety medications such as Xanax. Use this if you feel that a panic attack or severe stress is imminent. A small or moderate dosage may return you to a neutral mood. This technique helps some people de-stress. Remind yourself that you are capable and resourceful. Power pose in front of the mirror, give yourself a smile, and remind yourself that while the situation is tough, you're tough too.   "I'm relaxed and feeling peaceful. While fireworks startle me, I can breathe deeply and go back to feeling calm. I think I'll have a good night's sleep tonight." "I'm doing my best in a difficult situation. It stresses me out a little, and I'm allowed to be stressed. I know I'll be okay in the end." "I'm a resourceful woman. I've employed several noise-reduction techniques, and if I need more, I can get more. I can ride out this night and enjoy the fireworks." "I'm a strong person. Fireworks will not ruin my night."

When we breathe moment to moment, we don't think about it. But when we start singing, we start realizing that we have to ration it to get through the measures and sometimes we end up inadvertently holding it at certain pitches. Don't do this. Breathe fully and deeply into the bottom of your lungs and keep the air flowing. If you stop it, you either won't make a noise or you won't be in falsetto. Always, always, always let go. Of everything. Loosen up, shake it out, and relax. Being tense and listening to your voice as it comes out of your mouth will only result in you holding your breath and not producing the best sound you're capable of. A lot of singing is actually in the mind – you are your only obstacle. Plenty of people avoid their falsetto (or even head voice at times) because it sounds weak. It doesn't have that oomph that the chest voice does. This is normal. This can be a very good sound – you just have to get used to hearing it. Take a look at Broadway in the recent decades as compared to in the earlier parts of the 20th century and you'll see a huge movement toward belting, using chest voice. No voice is better than the other – but they do go in and out of style. Every singer has a break (the passaggio), if not more than one. In futzing around with your different types of "voices," you'll likely crack. Until you get super comfortable with the way your vocal folds are stretching and vibrating together, this is going to happen. Relax. Singing over your break is something that takes practice and diligence for many. With time and usage you can strengthen weaker areas of your vocal folds and correct old habits that have you jumping from one voice to the other and never bridging the two. You know that little bit of your throat that moves up and down when you swallow? You can actually control that. Try it right now – take a look in the mirror and get your Adam's apple area to move downward. Can you keep it there while you sing? This opens up your throat, allowing air to flow through unobstructed. It also...

Your Necchi has a chamber below the feed dogs where you can place a full bobbin. Open the chamber and bobbin case beneath the needle, insert the bobbin into the case, pull out 10 centimetres (3.9 in) of thread, and then place the bobbin into the case. Close the case and the chamber. Make sure that the needle is in the highest possible position to make it easier to put the bobbin into the chamber. After you have finished loading the bobbin, grasp the end of the top thread with your left hand. This thread should already be through the eye of the needle, but if not, thread the needle and keep holding onto the thread after you bring it through the eye. To connect the top and bottom thread strands, turn the wheel on the right side of your machine using your right hand. You should only need to do this a few times to connect the strands and the bottom thread should now be visible. If the threads are not connecting, you may need to adjust the tension on your machine. Turn the dial to tighten the tension by 1 or 2 notches and see if that helps.

You'll need to take the GRE. It's best to take it in the fall before the application deadlines in the winter/spring. And the better you do, the more (and better) schools you'll be accepted into. Start studying months before you take the test!   Your GRE scores may help you determine

Take the GRE. Determine what kind of work you want to do. Determine your focus. Decide if you want a Master's, a PhD, or a PsyD. Find the right school. Research scholarships, assistantships, and grants.

This will work best if you have a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or an electric mixer. Pause to scrape the bowl with a spatula, then mix again. This will help eliminate lumps. If you don't have an electric mixer, you have a few options.  You can beat the butter by hand, which will make your arm sore and take a little longer, but will still get the job done. Simply put the butter in a large bowl and mash and beat it with the back of a wooden spoon, scraping it off the sides as you go.  A food processor with the chopping blade can also work and should make your frosting extra smooth. You don't want to over-whip the cream cheese and risk runny frosting, so stop mixing once the butter and cream cheese are fully blended. Cutting the cream cheese into smaller chunks can help ensure smooth icing. The amount of powdered sugar you end up using can vary, depending on how sweet you like your frosting. Adding more powdered sugar can also stiffen frosting, which can be helpful if you plan to pipe it onto your dessert. Your finished icing should be thick, creamy, and spreadable, with no lumps.  If your icing is too thick, thin it with a splash of milk. Only add about a tablespoon at a time so you don't accidentally overdo it.  If your icing tastes too sweet and has lost the cream cheese flavor, a little lemon juice can bring out the tanginess.

TL;DR in English: Beat the butter until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and cream cheese and mix until just combined. Turn the mixer speed to low and gradually add powdered sugar. Mix until smooth.

To go to grad school, you'll need to take the GRE. It's best to take it in the fall before the application deadlines in the winter/spring. And the better you do, the more (and better) schools you'll be accepted into. Start studying months before you take the test!   Your GRE scores may help you determine between an MA and a PhD. If you don't get stellar GRE scores, try again. Most PhD programs are looking for a good score (master's programs may be less intense). Your GRE scores are good for up to 5 years. If you're not sure what life will throw at you next year, you can still take it and apply to schools in the coming years. In general, you'll find four types of programs at the grad level: I/O, Clinical, Counselling, and Experimental. Knowing which type you want to focus on and pursue will determine what college you go to and the path you take.   I/O stands for Industrial/Organizational. This involves working with corporations or organizations; in the end, you'll work for a business and focus on morale and HR-like activities. Clinical is what most people picture when they hear "psychologist." Your therapist/shrink studied clinical psychology. Counselling is similar to clinical, but you'll probably end up working in a school or government setting (like prison!). This is not the way to go if you want to end up with a private practice. Experimental psychology is more research-based and focuses on -- you guessed it -- experiments. Though it can involve different branches, it concentrates on applying theories and methods, working out kinks and discovering new ideas. Psychology is a huge field -- even after you've chosen a branch (Clinical, for example), you need to zero in on a focus within that branch. Focusing on one sub-category will determine where and how you will work as a psychologist after graduation. There are so many options (educational psychology, rehabilitation psychology, environmental psychology, psychology and the law, trauma psychology, forensic psychology, criminal psychology, cross-cultural...
