Use a small dab of illuminator to apply a thin layer of foundation on top to make it less noticeable.

Apply the illuminator after foundation. Dab the illuminator on your cheeks. Use the illuminator down the bridge of your nose. Apply a small dab to your chin, upper lip, and forehead. Blend in the illuminator.

Protect its moisture from the dry air. Wrap it up in a scarf before heading outdoors. Use one that is made of silk, since other materials like cotton or wool will increase the buildup of static electricity, which can make your hair stick out in odd places, cling to your face when you don't want it to, and generally misbehave. If a scarf alone isn't enough to keep your head warm or your hair protected from snow, ice, or rain, add a hat. Wrap a silk scarf around your hair first to reduce the chance of static electricity. Then don a hat on top of that. If you don’t have a silk scarf, opt for a hat made of cotton instead of wool or acrylics, since cotton’s less conducive to static electricity. If you have long hair, refrain from wearing turtlenecks, which may help your hair knot up in back. Avoid the need to brush your hair more than you really have to. Because the cold air and low humidity of winter dries out your hair, over-brushing can damage your brittle hair, so preempt the need by ditching the turtleneck. When you’re washing your clothes, make sure you use this to reduce the chance of static electricity building up in your hair. Be sure to use it when washing hats as well any clothes that you’ll be pulling over your head. Definitely use it if those clothes are made of wool or acrylics.

TL;DR in English: Cover your hair with a scarf. Wear a hat. Say no to turtlenecks. Use fabric softener.

Typically, illuminator is applied directly after you apply foundation and before blush. This will give you a noticeable glow. If you want a subtle glow, however, you should apply the illuminator below your foundation. Illuminator is most commonly applied to the cheeks. First, smile to get an idea of where your upper cheekbone is. Then, use your fingers to apply a very small dab of illuminator along each cheekbone. If you're using powder, with a large, fluffy brush. You can also apply some illuminator to the apples of your cheeks. Start with a light application of illuminator. You can always add more later if desired. Squirt a little more illuminator out of the bottle or apply more to your brush, depending on if you are using liquid or powder. Remember, less is more with illuminator. Then, swipe some illuminator down the bridge of your nose. This will produce a slimming effect, if desired. To brighten up your face even more, apply small dabs to these 3 locations. Apply some illuminator to the bottom of your chin, directly below the middle of your bottom lip. Then, apply another small dab into the crease just above your upper lip. Finish up by applying some illuminator to the middle of your forehead, between your eyebrows. The final step of the application process is to blend in the illuminator. You can use your fingers to gently blend it in. Or, you can use a blending brush or sponge. Make sure the illuminator is noticeable, but does not stand out dramatically—unless that is the look you are going for. If you apply too much illuminator, you can always add a thin layer of foundation on top to make it less noticeable.

Know when a doctor's visit is necessary. Make an appointment with your physician. Get a professional massage. Attend physical therapy if necessary.

Whether it is your best friend, your classmate, a teacher, a janitor, or any other school worker, everyone should be treated nicely. Because you are the class president, you have to set an example on how to interact with people so that everyone else will do the same.   Let others speak before you speak. Interrupting someone when they haven't finished their thought is extremely rude and shows disrespect to the other person. If it happens by accident, apologize for the incident and let them continue so they can finish what they were saying. Stop what you're doing and acknowledge whoever addresses you right away. Don't keep people waiting to try to get your attention, address them quickly so they can see that you want to listen to what they have to say. If you wait too long to address them, they might think you don't have time to listen to them. This might sound difficult to do because your instinct might be to be mean back. You are showing great maturity and setting an example to anyone that sees you interact in a positive manner even if you struggle to do it.Respond politely even if someone talks to you in a rude tone. Sometimes people have a bad day or might not be feeling well. Others many not know how to talk to people. As the saying goes, “Kill them with kindness” and be extra nice to them. That can help change their attitude in some situations.Treat everyone you talk to exactly how you want to be treated. That's something that everyone should be doing, but as a leader, this is important for you. Your classmates want to make sure you are listening to what they have to say, so pay attention. Even if what they are saying is not interesting to you, just smile and ask questions to stay engaged in the conversation. When interacting with your fellow classmates, positive body language can help you show that you care without having to verbally say it. There are several simple actions that you can do in different situations.  Make eye contact when speaking to others. Whether it is at the podium during a speech, or...

TL;DR in English: Practice good manners. Be equally as nice to those that might not be as nice to you. Use positive body language to help you communicate better. Demonstrate small acts of kindness. Plan specific days to show gratitude. Appreciate your parents too.

Sore muscles are usually not a major medical concern and will heal on their own with rest. However, under certain conditions, you should see a doctor for evaluation.  You should go to the ER if sore muscles are accompanied by trouble breathing, dizziness, extreme muscle weakness, or a high fever and stiff neck.  If you have a tick bite or rash accompanied by sore muscles, see your doctor for evaluation.  Soreness around the calves after exercise should be evaluated by your doctor.  Signs of infection around a sore muscle, like redness or swelling, should be looked at by a doctor. If your muscles suddenly became sore after you started taking a new medication, talk to your doctor.  Any muscle soreness that lasts longer than a week should be evaluated by a doctor. If you think your muscle soreness requires medical attention, make an appointment with your physician. He or she should be able to evaluate your muscle pain and make a plan for treatment.  At your appointment, your doctor will ask you a variety of questions regarding your pain. He or she will want to know when your pain started, how long it's lasted, its location, any medications you're taking, and whether you have any other symptoms.  Depending on your medical history, your doctor may order certain tests. He or she may want to do x-rays, a blood count, or other blood tests. This can help check for certain medical conditions that can cause sore muscles. Therapeutic deep-tissue massage can help relieve muscle soreness, especially if it's done after you exercise. If you have consistent muscle soreness, talk to your doctor about the possibility of a medical massage referral. Often, insurance companies will cover medical massage if it treats a medical condition. If your sore muscles are the result of an injury, your doctor may recommend physical therapy. The type and duration of physical depend on your current health, medical history, and the specific cause of your muscle soreness. Your doctor should be able to provide you with a referral to a physical therapist.

Give your child plenty of liquids. Provide a high-fiber diet. Try giving your child foods that may have slight laxative effects and are high in fiber. Reduce your child’s intake of foods that may cause constipation. Give your child the opportunity to engage in physical exercise. Create a routine for your child to try to have bowel movements.

This mask consists of three treatments: exfoliating, a soothing mask, and moisturizing. If you have very dry and flaky skin on your lips, consider skipping the exfoliating treatment and jumping straight to making and applying the mask. If you do choose to use the exfoliating treatment, be sure that you are gentle, so that you do not worsen the condition. Here is a list of what you will need for each part:  To make the exfoliating scrub, you will need 1 teaspoon of sugar and 1 teaspoon of olive oil. To make the soothing mask, you will need 1 teaspoon of plain yogurt and ½ teaspoon of raw honey. For the moisturizing treatment, you will need a lip balm or a natural oil; an organic lip balm is recommended.

TL;DR in English: Gather your ingredients.

This will help soften the stool and make it easier to pass. Water and juices are excellent for this purpose.  Milk may cause constipation in some children. Avoid giving your child caffeinated drinks like tea and coke.  The amount of water children need varies based on age, activity levels, and the climates in which they live. However, if your child is tired and passes cloudy or dark urine, this indicates that he or he is dehydrated. Fiber will help your child produce soft stools that are easy to pass. High fiber foods include beans, whole grain breads, fruits and vegetables. The following are recommended amounts of fiber for children:  Approximately 20 g of fiber per day for young children About 29 g per day for teenage girls Roughly 38 g per day for teenage boys Most are rich fruits that your child will probably readily enjoy:  Prunes Peaches Pears Plums Apples Apricots Raspberries Strawberries Beans Peas Spinach These include:  Milk and dairy products for some children Carrots, squash, potatoes, bananas, and other foods with a high starch content Highly processed foods that are high in fat, sugar, and salt, but low in fiber will also increase a child's tendency to become constipated. Those foods will make the child feel full and they are likely to pass up other, healthier, high-fiber foods. This will help stimulate bowel movements. Activities include:  Taking your child to a playground to run around Encouraging bike riding Going swimming Suggest that your child sit on the toilet for at least 10 minutes approximately 30-60 minutes after each meal and try to have a bowel movement. You can pair this with relaxation techniques that may reduce your child’s anxiety about having painful bowel movements.  Use deep breathing to help your child concentrate on relaxing his or her muscles. Have your child imagine relaxing images or a bowel movement that isn’t painful. Gently massage your child’s belly before he or she tries to have a bowel movement Be supportive and reward your child for trying. You can give a small...

The first time you see a Collector named Justin standing by the stall, you will find a Collector named Justin standing by the stall. Justin will tell you that he needs it to patch up his ship; give it to him to be rewarded with an Ancient Coin. The coin’s description mentions about giving it to the

Get Sap. Give Captain Brook the Thick Sap. Climb up to the lighthouse. Talk to him to have the coin appraised. Take the Mysterious Crystal to Witch Elena to have it examined.

At the very least, find one other person to play you in a one-on-one contest. If more people are available, include up to five others in a game, for a total of six players. Either use a brand new pack fresh out of its wrapping, or double-check your old one to confirm that all cards are there. Either way, make sure you’re starting off with all 52 cards that make up a standard deck.  A full deck should include:  Four “suits:” clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades. 13 cards per suit: ace, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, jack, queen, and king. Expect a standard 52-card deck to also include two jokers. However, you won’t need these to play Tonk. Weed them out from the deck and set them aside before you begin. If you’re playing for money, establish what the stakes will be for each hand played per game before the game begins. Expect one game to include at least a few hands. Also bear in mind that stakes can be doubled during each game, so take that into account before agreeing to the basic stake played per hand. Have each player draw one card from the deck. Then lay your cards out on the table. Assign the first deal to whoever has the highest card. Aces vary between being the highest and lowest card from game to game. In Tonk, however, aces are always the lowest. When dealing, give each player five cards. Keep them facing down so no one can see each other’s cards. Deal each card individually so you don’t accidentally deal more cards than intended to any one player. Five cards per player isn’t a hard-and-fast rule. Some people deal as little as three, while others go with seven or even as many as twelve. Feel free to adjust the amount however you see fit.

TL;DR in English: Gather enough people to play. Make sure your deck is full. Discard the jokers. Settle on the stakes if gambling. Cut cards to settle on who deals first. Deal the first hand.

From Witch Elena's location, head south of the map to find the Sap Barrel. Click it and you will obtain a Thick Sap. In the description, it states that you need to take the Thick Sap to Captain Brook of Skandia Town, found near the port by the stairway. He will tell you that he needs it to patch up his ship; give it to him to be rewarded with an Ancient Coin. The coin’s description mentions about giving it to the collector. It's just a few steps away from the Lighthouse Manager. You will find a Collector named Justin standing by the stall. Justin will be surprised to find out that the coin is from a kingdom that flourished 300 years ago. He will ask you to give him the coin to him in an exchange for a good item. Justin will give you a Mysterious Crystal. After unsealing the crystal, the God of Destruction will appear, announcing his plan of taking over the world but quickly notice that he's far too small. Surprised about his weakened state, the God of Destruction will quickly retreat, leaving you and Elena unharmed. After the event, you will receive another title, Vanquisher, which gives you + 10 Health Points.

Plan a novel and exciting date night. Pretend each date you go on is your first date. Go away for one weekend a month. Spend time apart. Give your partner a gift just because you love them.

Use a spade or shovel to dig several holes that are 12 inches (30 cm) deep between your garden rows. Dig as many holes as you can fill in with the compost you have on hand. Pour or shovel 2 US quarts (2,000 ml) (1.9 L) of compost into each hole. You don’t want to fill the entire hole with compost, as you’ll add some of the existing garden soil to the hole as well. Using the soil you removed from the hole, cover the compost with soil until it is level with the rest of your garden bed. The nutrients from the compost will enrich the soil in your garden and help your plants thrive.

Forget a pleasant evening at a French restaurant you have been to fifteen times. Try going on exciting and fresh dates, such as paintball or white water rafting. Science shows that couples who engage in exciting dates were more satisfied than those engaging in pleasant and routine dates. Go on dates that allow you to participate as a couple such as dancing, kayaking, or building a fort. On a first date, you make a significant effort to impress. If you strive to look your best and be on your best behavior each time you go on a date with your partner, you will both feel happier and more satisfied. Leave your home for two days a month and visit a place you have never gone with your partner. You can plan the getaway or make it spontaneous. Throw a dart at a map and go to wherever it lands. If money or children make travelling difficult, try spending time in a different part of your house you often neglect.  Try to just change your setting as much as possible. By being with your partner in a different environment, you may see them in a different light. Going on trips can also test your relationship by revealing your compatibility, showing how you manage each other when you are together 24/7. Taking time for yourself in a relationship is a healthy step because it promotes independence and adds mystery into your lives. If you love going to art museums but your partner does not, going on your own can encourage self-love, which will be carried into your relationship. Have a “girl’s or boy’s night” and hang out with your own group of friends. You can talk about things you wouldn’t necessarily discuss with your partner, and you will be reminded of yourself as an individual, instead of yourself in a partnership. Everybody loves to get gifts! It doesn’t have to be a birthday or Christmas to present your partner with a gift. If you are at the store and see something that reminds of you your partner, purchase it, wrap it up, and give it to them that evening at dinner. Your partner will be surprised by the unforeseen gift...

Blank vinyl pieces can be bought at a craft store. Use a pencil to outline your design on the non-adhesive side. Some vinyl has an adhesive backing. Non-adhesive stencils can also be used but must be taped with an adhesive. Your design can be anything you want, such as a bird, a tree, or letters, but remember that what you draw will be cut out and this shape will be what’s etched on the glass.  Patterned stencils may also be available, ordered online, or designed and printed. For letters, instead of using a stencil, you can etch around tape letters. This is only necessary if your stencil cannot adhere directly to the glass. Get a piece of vinyl larger than your stencil. Set the stencil in front of it, then secure the stencil to it by applying tape over the stencil’s edges. Using an X-acto knife or other sharp knife, cut out your design along the outlines you made. Hold the blade upwards so only the tip touches the stencil. Remove the parts you want to be etched into the glass, taking care not to tear the surrounding space.

TL;DR in English: Draw the design you want to etch. Place your stencil over vinyl shelf liner. Cut the stencil with a knife.

There are two approaches to this. One is to leave it all up to the airline (be sure to check what they offer first) and travel as light as possible. The other is to take your own entertainment items because you don't trust that the airline's offerings are adequate. Just be aware that there are weight restrictions and that the more things you take with you, the more things you have to worry about losing, breaking or having stolen. It also means less room in your bags for bringing back souvenirs and treats from wherever you're traveling to.  On the other hand, some items will be handy during the trip itself and not just on the plane (for example an MP3 Player or an eReader), so letting them do double duty is great. The other thing to consider is that, if you want to pay for a movie or on-flight entertainment, it can be quite expensive. Though it's complimentary on some flights, you should look into the policy of the airline you're taking. You may be better off renting a movie on iTunes or Google Play and watching it on your Tablet or computer (though the volume may be a bit lower than it would be on the plane's movies) for 3-4 dollars a pop than paying 10 dollars or more to watch a movie on the plane. Also, if you select your movies in advance, you'll have more options to choose from. The things you might consider carrying on the plane include an MP3 Player for music and audio books, a laptop or Tablet for writing and reading (and surfing on your trip), a portable DVD player (although this will be quite bulky and your hotel rooms in many places have DVD players) or a portable gaming console such as a Nintendo 3DS, a PSVita or a Nintendo Switch. All three have pros and cons that you need to weigh. If you're going on vacation, however, you may want to leave your laptop or other things that remind you of work at home.  Take your cell phone; you may need it on the trip and even if it cannot be used on the plane, it should be with you for safekeeping. Keep in mind that many newer planes have in-flight entertainment...

Do some background research. Have a solid understanding of what qualifications you're seeking in a candidate.

Avoid doing work, making phone calls, or paying bills in bed. Instead, get used to the idea that your bed is for sleeping or romantic activities. You want your bed to be a place of relaxation--not a work desk. Keep your bed free of clutter, and never perform work activities in bed. Your bedroom should be a relaxing safe haven, one that is free from stress, distractions, or anything nerve-wracking. Try to avoid doing work or anything stressful in your bedroom. Keep your bedroom free from electronic screens or noisy items such as televisions, computers, and phones. These electronics have been known to give out blue light which interferes in sleep.  Other ways to have a relaxing bedroom space include painting your room a calming color such as light blue or light gray, using lamps that create soft light, and using calming essential scents such as lavender oils or potpourri. Essential oils can help you sleep better. Having a dark room is very important for relaxing and sleeping well in bed. The sleep-inducing hormone melatonin is very light-sensitive. Check to see if your room is too light by turning off all the lights at night. Wait for your eyes to adjust: if you can clearly see objects, there is too much light. Now you can look for areas where the light is leaking in. If you are in a city with lots of street lights outside your window, consider getting a blackout lining for your curtains or buying an eye mask. A room that is too hot will stop your core temperature from dropping, something which is necessary to switch on your body's sleeping mechanism. Your body drops to its lowest temperature when you are asleep so keeping your room cool can help. You should aim for a temperature of around 18 - 24 degrees Celsius, or 64 - 75 Fahrenheit. Being overheated can make you feel dehydrated, anxious, or restless at bedtime.  Keeping a window slightly open, if it is safe to do so, can help by ensuring there is a good circulation of air. An oscillating fan can also help create the proper temperature in a bedroom during...

TL;DR in English: Use your bed only for sleep and intimacy. Create a relaxing atmosphere. Keep it dark. Keep your bedroom cool. Choose the right mattress for you. Use a white noise machine to cover up stressful sounds.

You have a resume and cover letter presenting information that is said to be factual. Before the candidate even enters your office, take some time to verify the information he or she has given you. The job market is tough, and it's not unthinkable for candidates to embellish their resumes a bit to get an edge over the dozens of other people who applied for the job. Doing research beforehand is also a good way to prep yourself for the interview so you can ask informed questions instead of just winging it with generic ones.  Call the candidate's references. Ask questions specifically related to information from the resume and cover letter. Do an online search. Google the person and check LinkedIn, if their profile is public. If you know people who know the candidate, casually ask a few questions about the person's work history. Research the companies the candidate worked for - you can learn a lot about what the candidate might be bringing to the table. The purpose of an interview is to learn more about a candidate's personality and determine whether he or she will be a "good fit." This is your chance to learn more than what the candidate presents on paper. You might be interviewing five people with the exact same level of education and experience, so it's time to think more deeply about what you need from your potential hire. What kind of person is going to do the job well? What will make one person stand out from the rest?  Are you looking for someone with a big personality who's going to push traditional boundaries? Would it be better to have a serious, hardworking type who reliably gets the job done well every time? Figure out what work style you want in a candidate. Determine whether you need someone who is detail-oriented or a big picture thinker. Think about the people who have previously held the position in question. What worked, and what didn't? Remember that getting along with someone else isn't a good enough reason to hire them; you need to be confident the person will do a good job. There are plenty...

Feeling irritable might be your mind's way of telling you that you need to take a break. When you feel a mood change coming on, make it a point to step away from the situation and take some time for yourself. This can be as simple as taking a quick walk around the block to calm yourself down.  Make it a habit to set some time aside your yourself each day. Maybe you can reserve the last half hour of each day to read a book. Or you could wake up a little early to enjoy having your first cup of coffee in complete silence. When you notice yourself being irritable, give yourself a break. Take some time to listen to music or do a few relaxing yoga stretches. When you are impatient, you are more likely to feel irritable, overwhelmed, and stressed. Try to practice patience in your everyday life. It's not easy, but it will have positive benefits for your overall mood.  Try to slow down. Research shows that by moving at a slower pace, you will feel less hurried, and therefore less impatient. Try to eat more slowly, breathe more slowly, and take time to appreciate your surroundings. Be flexible. It's important to know that things won't always go your way. Be prepared for things to go wrong or take longer than expected. For example, maybe you only scheduled thirty minutes to get your kids dressed and off to school. Try building a little flex time into your schedule. That way, if it takes a little longer than expected, you won't feel like your entire day has been thrown off course.

Wash your hair. Let your hair air dry. Determine your hair's curl pattern. Find your hair subcategory. Compare your hair to the LOIS system.

Avoid sleeplessness, overexertion and fatigue, especially when ill or recovering from illness. Take care with the following risk factors.

Using your regular shampoo and conditioner regimen, wash your hair as you normally would. Rinse your hair clean of shampoo and conditioner. Using a hair dryer might change the way your hair reacts in a certain amount of time, so using a towel and air to dry your hair is the best method. Andre Walker, hairstylist for Oprah Winfrey, created a system for determining hair type primarily based on curl size and pattern. This includes a range of hair types from straight to coily.   1 (straight): Hair has no curve in it at all.  2 (wavy): Hair is wavy but does not curl much.  3 (curly): Hair is curly with an S shape and holds a definite curl pattern even when unstyled.  4 (coily): Hair is tightly coiled or kinky, often with a definite Z pattern. It can be stretched out and will return to its curled shape when released. Type 4 hair might shrink up to 75% of its actual length. Take a look at a representative chunk of your hair. Observe the thickness and pattern of the curl (if you have curls). ,  These are also based on the Andre Walker system that categorizes hair into four types and three subcategories per type.   1A: Hair is soft and cannot hold a curl.  1B: Hair does not curl but has more volume.  1C: Hair does not curl and is rather coarse.  2A: Hair is wavy, resembling the letter S, and is coarse.  2B: Hair is often frizzy with a definite wave.  2C:  Hair is very frizzy with thick waves, and is the coarsest of this category.  3A: Curls are about the same diameter as sidewalk chalk, or pretty loose curls.  3B: Curls are about the same diameter as a sharpie, or medium-sized curls.  3C: Curls are about the same diameter as a pencil, or corkscrew curls.  4A: Curls are very tight, about the same diameter as a needle.  4B: Curls resemble a zigzag pattern, looking like the letter Z.  4C: There might not be a curl pattern to this hair type. It has a tight zigzag with an uneven pattern, so it is harder to define. The LOIS system is a curl typing system that considers strand texture and thickness as well. It compares a...

Whether you keep a more old-fashioned paper file or a digital file, make a single place for all of your financial records. Create subcategories that identify the type of bill or expense.  If you're keeping digital records, you may be able to use your email account to help organize your records. Use the same email address for all of your bills and create tags or filters to put those billing statements in categories. To reduce clutter in your inbox, open a separate account for bills and don't use that email address for personal email. You can also scan your bills and make PDFs to keep on your computer as a digital copy. Keeping your income statements and receipts in one place will make for fewer headaches come tax time. If you're keeping paper files, create a separate folder specifically for deductible expenses.  Within your file for deductible expenses include files with categories, such as home and office expenses, mileage and vehicle expenses, childcare expenses, and medical expenses. Go through your expense files at least once a month. If you paid a bill that you believe is deductible, move it to the deductible file (or make a copy of it and keep it in both places). Any document that has your signature, account number, medical, legal, or other identification information should be shredded rather than simply thrown in the trash. By leaving this information intact you are putting yourself at risk for identity theft.  If you don't own a shredder, you can buy a basic one online or at office supply stores for typically around $20 or $30. There are more expensive versions that may shred faster, or shred more documents at once, or that also shred CDs or credit cards. It's up to you whether a fancier shredder is worth the investment for you. You can also subscribe to a shredding service if you don't want to do all that work yourself. For example, in the US, office supply stores such as Staples or Office Depot will shred your documents for you at the rate of about $1 per pound. Just as you may do a spring cleaning...

TL;DR in English: Keep all of your statements and billing notices in one place. Include income statements and receipts for deductible expenses. Buy a shredder to use when disposing of financial documents. Purge records you no longer need once a year.

In colder climates, the ground will freeze if you wait until Christmas to dig the hole, so plan ahead and do this in the fall. If you’ve waited too long to dig and the ground is already frozen, try pouring boiling water onto the spot and then digging. Using a shovel, dig a hole twice as wide as the size of the root ball to give the roots a chance to spread. But don’t go any deeper than the height of the root ball, since you don’t want it too far below the soil level. Having it slightly higher than the soil around it will help with drainage. Don’t dispose of any of the dirt you dig out of the hole. You’ll be using this later to fill the hole back in. It can be left outside under a tarp or placed in a garage or shed.

Mix together equal parts of Aztec clay and apple cider vinegar. Let the mask dry. Use the mask no more than once a week.

Buy a Triops kit from a pet store or online retailer. Sprinkle about 20 eggs into the tank. Wait 1 to 4 days for the eggs to hatch.

In a medium-sized bowl, mix equal parts of Aztec Clay and apple cider vinegar. The acidity of the vinegar will help to soften and exfoliate skin while the clay removes oil. If you don't like the small of apple cider vinegar, use an equal amount of water to make the mixture instead.  Aztec clay is available online or in beauty supply stores. For a more luxurious face mask, add one tablespoon (0.75 oz.) of honey to the mixture. If you have normal skin, allow the mask to dry for between fifteen and twenty minutes. If you have sensitive skin, let the mask dry on your skin for only five minutes. Watch the time carefully or set an alarm to mark the exact time. As the mask dries, you will feel a tightening sensation on your skin. Overuse of bentonite clay on the skin can be drying or cause irritation. Use an Aztec clay face mask no more than once a week. If you experience significant irritation when using the mask, avoid future use.

Select a kit that contains at least the Triops eggs, food, and care instructions. You can also find kits that come with a tank, thermometer, or dish for hatching the eggs. Most kits cost between $10 and $20. Out of these 20 eggs, you’ll likely only get 1 to 3 Triops. Make sure that the eggs, which are as small as a grain of sand, go into the water and don’t accidentally blow away or get stuck on the edge of the aquarium. Most kits come with around 40 to 60 eggs, so you can have 2 to 3 hatching cycles. After you sprinkle the eggs into the water, expect them to hatch between 24 and 96 hours later. Look closely, as newborn Triops are so small, they’re almost invisible to the human eye for the first few days. If you’re hatching the eggs in the fall or winter when it’s colder, it can take an additional 3 to 5 days for the Triops to hatch.

If you are using a dark, nonstick pan, lower the oven temperature to 325°F (162°C). Pulse the Oreo cookies in the food processor until you get fine crumbs first. Add the melted butter and blend again until smooth.  The cookies need to be finely ground, sort of like coffee grounds. If they are too chunky, your crust won't hold together well. Save the remaining 10 cookies for the filling. Make sure that the crust is firmly packed into the pan, or it won't hold together. For a fancier touch, spread the mixture across the bottom of the pan first, then push it 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) up the sides. Do not remove the crust from the springform pan yet. It won't hold together until you add the cheesecake filling. You can do this using an electric mixer or a food processor fitted with whisks. From time to time, pause the mixer, and scrape down the sides with a spatula; this will ensure that everything gets evenly mixed together. Mix the filling on low speed after each egg you add until it is blended before adding the next egg. Make sure that the ingredients are evenly mixed throughout. There should be no streaks and swirls; everything should be consistent. Use a knife to chop the cookies into coarse crumbs; they can be as big or as small as you'd like. Gently stir them into the filling using a spatula. If you need to, use a spatula to help guide the filling into the crust. Smooth the top down with a spatula so that there aren't any ripples. There is enough cake to cut 16 slices. Cover and store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.To learn how to decorate your cake, click here.

Fold in the sour cream and vanilla extract, and mix again. Roughly chop up the remaining Oreo cookies and stir them into the filling. Pour the filling into the crust. Decorate the cake, if desired, and refrigerate it for at least 4 hours before serving.

The purpose of your genogram will help you to focus on the type of family information you want to collect. It's also likely to help you decide with whom you will share the completed diagram––sometimes the information might be considered upsetting or too sensitive for some family members, so you'll need to judge that depending on the context.  Genograms can focus on a number of hereditary patterns and issues including substance abuse, mental illness, and physical violence, as well as many physical illnesses. Genograms can provide health care workers with a visual document that tracks the history of your current mental or medical proclivities through your family bloodline. Once you know why you're making a genogram, whether it’s for a healthcare provider, school project, or just to get to know you and your family more, knowing what it is you want to learn can help you to organize how you go about populating your genogram.  Genograms are like family trees. Only in addition to looking at the branches, you also look at the leaves on each branch. You'll not only learn who is in your family, but how everyone is connected through physical and emotional relationships. For example, a genogram can tell you who is married, divorced, widowed, etc. It will also tell you how many kids each union (typically between two individuals) has, what each child is like, and what the individual relationships are between members on more than just a physical level. Think about what kind of information you want to learn from making your genogram. Do you want to know who in your family has depression, addictions, or a history of cancer? Perhaps you want to know more about why your mother and her mother never get along, by looking for the right clues you’ll be able to make a genogram that serves your goals. This will give you a clear idea of who you will need to approach for information to complete your diagram and whether this will be possible given people's ages and geographical location.

While many gingerbread recipes call for using dried ginger and other spices, make gingerbread that uses grated peeled ginger. The ginger will add moisture to the cake and will give a spicier flavor to the classic bakery cake. The flavor of gingerbread will improve as it's stored. Try to make gingerbread at least 1 day before you plan to serve it. Cinnamon is often the main spice used in traditional pumpkin pie, but you can highlight the flavor of ginger. Stir 1 1/2 tablespoons (9 g) of grated ginger into your favorite pumpkin pie filling before baking it. To add an extra ginger flavor to the pie, sprinkle a little dried and ground ginger into sweetened whipped cream. Serve the whipped cream on the side. Bake crisp gingersnaps or soft spiced ginger cookies that use ginger root. Add about 3 tablespoons (18 g) of fresh grated ginger to your favorite spice or gingersnap cookie recipe for a bright ginger flavor. Many cookie recipes already call for dried ground ginger. To substitute fresh ginger, add half as much fresh ginger as the recipe calls for. For example, if the recipe calls for 2 teaspoons (4 g) of ground ginger, use 1 teaspoon (1 g) of grated fresh ginger. Add the exciting flavor of ginger to simply flavored pound cakes. Ginger also works well with lemon, orange, lime, and other citrus flavors. Add about 2 teaspoons (2 g) of fresh grated ginger to your cake batter. Consider mixing some ginger syrup into enough powdered sugar to make a quick glaze. Pour the ginger glaze over the cake once it's cool. Take a 2 ounce (57 g) piece of ginger root and leave its peel on. Pulse the ginger in a food processor until it's finely ground. Combine the ginger with the sugar according to your muffin recipe. Stir together the rest of the recipe's ingredients and bake them in a muffin tin. The ginger works well with these muffin flavors:  Blueberry Pear and walnut Lemon poppyseed

Uncap the container and rub the lip balm onto something flammable: cotton balls, Q-tips, cloth, gauze, lint, or even dry organic materials like leaves and bark. Then, light the material on fire. The oil in the lip balm will give your flame an extra kick of intensity, and it should help it burn for longer while you get a larger fire going.  You can also use petroleum jelly like Vaseline for this purpose.  Consider keeping cotton balls or gauze in your survival kit for precisely this purpose. Together, cotton and lip balm form a potent fire-starting combination. Add a short wick, and the waxy, oily lip balm will perform much like a standard candle. For the wick, you can use a string, a match, or half of a Q-tip – anything that will not burn too quickly. Coat the wick in Chapstick wax, then stick it into the end of the balm. Light it on fire, and you have a candle that you can use to make more fire.  Make sure to plant the wick slightly off-center from the plastic screw in the center of the Chapstick. Keep the wick very short. Otherwise, it might burn too quickly. Either way, there's a good chance that the fire will melt away the plastic rim of the container. Try cutting a Q-tip in half, then coating the fuzzy end of the Q-tip in lip balm. Stick the sharp end of the half-Q-tip into the Chapstick, then light the fuzz. It should burn well and last at least a few minutes.

Nothing will give you a better return on your investment than a little elbow grease. A cleaner house will look more appealing to your realtor when he or she helps you set a price, as well as to the appraiser the bank sends out when you have an offer. Here are some ideas: Make your house look more spacious by eliminating junky or unnecessary items. Get rid of battered furniture, decaying knick-knacks and piles of paper - or, if you can't stand to part with anything, throw your stuff in a storage unit until after the house sells. Remember that it's better to show a somewhat barren house than one that's filled to the brim with clutter. Once you have more room to work, undertake a thorough housecleaning. Not only should you do usual chores such as mopping or dusting, but focus on rarely-cleaned areas such as baseboards, grout and heating vents. Steam clean your carpets, and wash walls and windows. Wipe down the blinds, and remove any broken screens. Pressure-wash any siding on the outside of your house, as well as the sidewalks and driveways. If you don't have the time to undertake such a project, consider hiring a professional cleaning service. Many of them specialize in residential properties for lease or for sale. A common saying among realtors is, "If you can smell it, you can't sell it." Sometimes, people can't detect how their house smells because their noses are so accustomed to it. If you think your home smells fabulous, have a trusted friend confirm or deny this as soon as they walk in the door. If you keep pets, thoroughly shampoo carpets and furniture, and wash all bedding - you're not selling the bedding or the furniture, but they're capable of smelling up the house just the same. If you smoke, do everything you would for pets in addition to washing (and possibly painting over) the walls and ceiling as well as you can. When you know your realtor will be showing the house, try to make it smell good by baking something delicious beforehand (which you can put on the counter for your guests) or lighting a...

Ideally, your tank will be 10 gallons (37.9 L) in volume. You don’t want to overcrowd your tank. If you have a 10-gallon tank, for example, aim for about five guppies. This will simply help you maintain the tank better and keep your fish healthier. Some guppy breeders and enthusiasts might argue that you don’t need to follow that ratio, but the more fish you have in your tank, the more often you will have to clean it and change the water. Consider this when deciding what size tank to get, and how many guppies to keep in it. There are a few ways you can dechlorinate your water. You can let it sit with the lid open for about a week to let the chlorine evaporate, or you can buy a dechlorinating kit. It’s important to dechlorinate your aquarium, and any water you add to it in the future.  You can buy these supplies at a local pet supply store for a relatively low cost. You will also want to buy a chlorine testing kit, just to make sure the water is completely free of chlorine before adding your fish. Follow instructions on the dechlorination bottle. Nearly all tap water has a certain level of chlorine in it. You can use purified, filtered, or distilled water that is free of chlorine, to begin with, but to be safe, still test the water for chlorine before putting your fish in it.  Try to keep the pH level in your tank between 8/10 guppies like higher level pH so aim for around 7.5pH to help you keep the pH at a high you may want to add crushed coral. This is equal to about 24 and 28 degrees Celsius. Keep a thermometer in the tank to monitor the temperature. If you find it needs to be heated, you can purchase a small heater to place in the tank.  If you need a heater, make sure you buy one that is appropriate for the size of aquarium you have. For example, if you have a 5-gallon tank, you’ll need a less powerful heater than if you have a 20-gallon tank. Ask the associate at the pet supply store if you aren’t sure which heater you need. To avoid overheating your tank, it’s best to keep it out of direct sunlight. Use...

Make brushing enjoyable. Reward yourself. Visit the dentist. Notice any changes in how you feel.

If you put on a harness, make sure it is loose enough. You should be able to put a finger or two between the harness and the guinea pig. If it's too tight, it could harm the guinea pig's back over time and chaff under his armpits. It may not be a good idea to put a harness on at all. Some owners have had trouble with harnesses harming guinea pigs' backs  after they've worn it several times. If you insist on using a leash, make sure you just do it in the yard. That is, you can use a leash to keep your guinea pig from wandering too far. However, you need to supervise the guinea pig the whole time. A leash isn't license to leave your guinea pig alone outside.  Also, don't tug on the leash. Just let your guinea pig roam about. Make sure the leash is always loose, and your guinea pig doesn't get tangled in it. While you can put your guinea pig in a harness, it's not a good idea to walk it on a leash. The tugging sensation can harm the guinea pig's delicate spine very easily. In addition, most guinea pigs won't take to walking, meaning they can't be trained to walk beside you on a leash.  In addition, guinea pigs can easily slip out of harnesses, so they can escape before you can catch them. Therefore, trying to walk a guinea pig in a street isn't a good idea. It could get away from you and be harmed.

TL;DR in English: Make sure the harness isn't too tight. Use leashes just for the yard. Don't walk your guinea pig.

If you see brushing your teeth as a chore, you’re less likely to keep at it. Do what you can to make the process enjoyable. Choose products that you like, and that are comfortable for you.  Choose a toothpaste that you like. Toothpaste comes in many flavors including mint, anise, and cinnamon. They’re all essentially the same in terms of effectiveness as long as they contain fluoride. Be sure that your toothpaste has the ADA seal of approval.  Choose a toothbrush that fits comfortably in your hand and in your mouth. Soft bristles can feel good on sensitive gums and teeth and they will also protect your gums against gum recession. Rewards can be big or small, but they should be significant to you. Decide ahead of time what your reward will be, and how long you’ll have to keep up your routine to earn it.  Tell a friend or loved one what your reward will be. They can remind you if you start to lose motivation. When you earn your first reward, take the time to enjoy it. Then set a new reward for a new goal. Rewards don't have to be related to your teeth at all! You can take yourself out to a great meal, or splurge on a purchase you wouldn't otherwise make. No one can give you more accurate feedback on your progress than your dentist. Regular appointments for checkups and cleanings are essentially feedback sessions to see how your brushing has improved your dental health. Talk to your dentist about your efforts to brush regularly and the progress you’ve made. Ask your dentist to tell you what you might be doing wrong and how you can improve your brushing habits. Once you’ve been brushing your teeth regularly for a while, you may feel more confident. Your smile and breath are likely more clean and fresh than they were before. Take the time to enjoy that newfound confidence; it’s just what you need to stick with your new habit.

Teach the alphabet. Work on vowels. Move on to consonants. Combine vowels and consonants to form words. Tackle sight words together.

If the entirety of the root system isn’t removed, it’s possible that the weeds will regrow and return. Wait one or two days after you water or after it rains heavily so the soil has time to soak. Pulling weeds from wet soil will disturb surrounding plants less than dry soil. Instead of kneeling on hard ground or rocks, wear knee pads to prevent soreness and stiffness later. Gloves will help stop any skin irritation and can also prevent blisters from long days of pulling weeds.  If you do not have knee pads, laying down a cushion or folded towel is a good substitute.  Use gloves that are made from a non-stick, but breathable, material. This will make the weeds easier to pull up. Use the tool to dig around in the soil around the weeds. This can also help you dig up more established weeds. If you grab the weeds in handfuls, you may not pull out the taproot, or the root that provides most of the weed’s water. While it is more tedious, to prevent weeds from growing back, pull them one at a time. This ensures that you grab the weed by the main root. Twisting the weed will help break off smaller roots and make it easier to pull out.  Do not use a fast jerking motion when pulling, as this can cause large root sections to break off and regrow.  Put everything that you have pulled in a bucket so they do not germinate again and throw them in the trash. Do not put them in compost.

TL;DR in English: Water the weeds to loosen the root system. Wear knee pads and gloves to protect your body. Loosen weeds with a soil knife or garden fork. Grab and pull weeds individually rather than in clumps. Pull the weed from its base with an upward and twisting motion.

The alphabet is the bare bones of reading. In order to understand books, stories, sentences, or even words, you must first understand the letters of the alphabet. Teaching your child the alphabet will help her learn to recognize letters and sound them out so that they can later build them together to make words.  Use tactile learning tools. Buy a set of 3 in (7.6 cm) foam letters and/or blocks with letters of the alphabet to play with. As your child plays, tell them what each letter sounds like. Then ask them to try and reproduce the sound. You can gradually advance to having your child identify which letter makes a sound that you speak. "Quiz" them by showing them 3 letters and asking, for example, which one makes the "ah" sound. In addition to recognizing the appearance of a written letter, teach your child the sound each letter makes. Work on one letter at a time, or break it into small groups of letters. For example, one day you might work on A through D, the next day E through H, and so on. Vowels are the next step to progress to after learning the basic alphabet. They're a little easier to learn than consonants since there are only A, E, I, O, U, and Y. One easy way to teach vowels is to print out vowel workbook pages from a phonics website, or purchase a similar book at your local bookstore. These workbook pages typically show pictures and words, and often help break down the parts of a word. Matching the word with its corresponding image might help your child better understand the meanings of words.  You can find free vowel workbook pages online at websites like http://www.schoolexpress.com/fws/cat.php?id=2483. Show your child pictures and say the word each image depicts. Ask your child which vowel makes the sound for that word.  For example, when you show a picture of a cat and say "cat," ask your child to identify which vowel makes the "a" sound. Once your child has gotten the hang of vowels, you're ready to move on to consonants. Consonants can be trickier, in part because there are so many more of...

Like in normal solitaire, this stock or "waste" pile determines which cards are next playable. However, rather than placing cards from the stock pile onto cards in pyramids, you will be taking cards from the pyramids and placing them onto the stock pile. The goal is to uncover and remove all the cards from the pyramids/peaks. The only cards you can move to the waste pile are those that are one number above or one number below the card on the stock pile. For example, if the card on the waste pile is a King of Spades, then you can only move a Queen or Ace to that pile. However, keep in mind that the Ace can be either a card above the King or a card below the 2, depending on how you’re playing. When moving cards from the card peak to place on the waste pile, the suit or color don’t matter. Different from regular solitaire, you can place a red diamond on a black spade or vice versa. The only thing that matters is that the numbers are consistent. When both of the cards that border a card have been moved, you can turn that card over. For example, if you remove every card in the fourth row of a pyramid, then you can turn over every one of the cards in the third row. Just keep in mind that if a card is still bordered or “pinned” by other cards, it can’t be moved. If you have reached an impasse with no playable cards from the pyramid and stock pile, then you can turn over a new card. You can do this as many times as you need to move cards from the pyramids. However, if you run through the whole stock pile, then you will have to start repeating cards again. Games are won when all the cards inside your peaks/pyramids have been placed into the waste pile. This means that all your playable cards have been completed. If the stockpile has been cleaned of cards while the pyramids still have cards, though, then the game has been lost.

Take the time to get to know her as a close friend before trying to progress to something more. You may worry about being put in the dreaded “friend zone,” but the truth of the matter is that many girls do need to feel secure with a guy before they will consider going out with him. Letting her know that you genuinely care about her as a human and a friend will establish that trust. Once you reach a level of friendship that allows the two of you to hang out without being in a group, invite her to spend some time with you alone.  If you want to be cautious, ask her to visit someplace familiar yet different, like a different coffee shop or a nearby park that you have both talked about wanting to visit. If you want to be a little bolder, ask her to spend the afternoon or evening with you without revealing your plans. You can take her out for a nice meal, an interesting show, or a night of dancing. Insist on paying. If she puts up a fuss about it, tell her that you want to pay for her since you were the one who asked her to come out with you. Unless you frequently throw gifts her way, a gift lets the girl know that there is something different—and special—about your time together this day when compared to any other day.  Flowers, chocolates, or stuffed animals are all fair game. Avoid expensive gifts like jewelry or designer clothes. After you have spent some time enjoying each other's company, sit down with her and tell her that you have something important to say. Once you have her undivided attention, tell her honestly that you have strong feelings for her and would like her to be your girlfriend.  Do not pressure, but at the same time, avoid blowing it off as no big deal. You must be genuine without being pushy. Good example: “I really enjoy the time I spend with you and consider you an important part of my life. I can't help but have feelings for you past those of friendship, though. If you feel the same way, or think you could see me as a boyfriend, then I'd like to go out with you.” Bad example: “So, yeah....

TL;DR in English: Befriend her. Ask her to spend time with you in a pressure-free setting. Consider giving her a small, inexpensive gift. Tell her seriously how you feel. Accept her answer calmly.

TL;DR in English: Begin a contrasting statement with "However,". Join two contrasting sentences using "; however,". Use ", however," as an aside.

Be inspired in your costume idea from other people's picks.

To introduce a sentence that contradicts or contrasts with the previous sentence, start it with "However,…" This will alert your reader that a shift is forthcoming. Always put a comma after the "However," and follow it with a complete sentence.  You might write, "I was very excited to be invited to lunch. However, I had already made plans." Another example could be, "The pattern was certainly original. However, the new wallpaper did not match the furniture at all." When you have two full sentences that are in opposition or contrast to one another, but are closely connected, join them with a semicolon, the word "however," and a comma. This shows that the second sentence is in opposition in some way to the first.  Start with two sentences that contain opposition: "I would love to join you for lunch. I am too busy." Join them in this way: "I would love to join you for lunch; however, I am too busy." This will make the connections between the sentences obvious, and help your writing sound more cohesive. To interrupt a sentence that is already in progress, insert "however" between two commas. Like other uses of "however," this implies a contrast to the previous content, but in a way that makes the contrast sound a little less crucial.  Put ", however," after the subject of the second sentence: "I can't make it to lunch. You, however, are going to love that restaurant." Use it to divide a two-part verb: "I can't make it to lunch. I could, however, join you next week." Put it at the end of the second sentence: "I can't make it to lunch. I could join you next week, however."

TL;DR in English: Begin a contrasting statement with "However,". Join two contrasting sentences using "; however,". Use ", however," as an aside.

Negotiate the price if you’re in a small store. Search for coupons. Purchase in a store to receive more reliable customer service. Buy online for reduced prices and convenient purchasing. File the receipt, warranty, and trial paperwork.

You should have at least one substantial paragraph devoted to the specific topics that interest you. Describe the contemporary theories, books, scholars, or topics that excite and inspire you.  You can pose interests as a question. This makes your writing engaging, and shows your ability to formulate research questions. For instance, you might write something like “the question I keep turning to in my research is: How did gender-based concerns shape the epistolary novel and related genres in eighteenth-century France?” Let the details speak in your statement. This will excite the admissions committee, and make your personal statement stand apart from boring, stale, and vague essays.  For instance, write something more than “I gained significant experience as an intern in a chemical engineering lab that I will apply to my graduate study.” Instead, try something like “While interning at the UC Berkeley Chemical Engineering Lab, I discovered a new method for crystallizing citric acid. In my article published in the New England Journal of Chemistry, I explained how this can potentially transform the industrial production of this compound. I intend to pursue research on these applications during my graduate study.” Don’t be afraid to use the technical lingo of your field. Remember you are writing to your peers who want to know you are knowledgeable. A statement of purpose is no time to be modest. Don't boast, but be forward about your accomplishments. Remember you want to impress admissions committees!  This means don't settle for something like “As an undergraduate, I excelled academically.” Instead, show specific evidence of your accomplishments: “A $2000 grant from the Louisiana Historical Society to fund my research on material culture in Antebellum African American daily life. The senior thesis I wrote reporting my findings earned the LSU Library Undergraduate Research Award.” If there are specific professors you want to work with in graduate school, mention them in your statement of purpose. This will need...

If you’re in a local store, you may be facing overpriced products. Talk to your salesperson to negotiate these prices down to match the minimum prices you can find for the product online. Larger chains should already match these minimum prices. If you face resistance in this conversation, try telling your salesperson that you’ve found the same product for a better price elsewhere. While they may tell you that you’re welcome to make your purchase where you’d like, they might also take the opportunity to prevent you from walking out the door. Both stores and online vendors should have coupon options available. Search online for printable coupons to take in the store with you, or apply promotional codes at the end of your online purchase. You can also search your town’s weekly advertising circular for local couponing options. There are a variety of online options for finding coupons. Honey is an internet add-on that will automatically search for and apply coupons to your online purchases, or you can use RetailMeNot.com to look up specific stores. Buying your mattress in a store means that you have a physical location and specific person to visit if you have problems with your product. When you buy in a store, you’re usually guaranteed assistance in moving and setting up the mattress. Online purchasing will allow you to avoid haggling with a salesperson over prices. However, be aware that your purchase may not meet your expectations, especially if you didn’t visit a store to test it out. It may also be more difficult for you to return a mattress purchased online. Note that online vendors may only ship “compressed,” or rolled-up, memory foam mattresses that need about a day to fully decompress before you can sleep on them. Whether you make your purchase online or in the store, set aside a specific place on your computer or in your house for your purchasing records. You should be sure that the receipt, warranty paperwork, and any trial period agreements are somewhere that you can easily access and won’t forget about.

Don’t spend more time than needed on this. Review your relationship in order to move on. Ask yourself if he was right for you. Keep your emotions in check. Examine how you deal with fights and disagreements.

Your Snapchat stories won’t leave a lasting impression if they’re no different from anyone else’s. Instead of simply sharing selfies or broadcasting photos of your lunch, highlight some unique characteristic or mode of presentation that will help you stand out. More people will be motivated to follow you if they can’t get your type of content anywhere else.  Give your account a distinct theme. Your snaps might be centered around documenting thrill-seeking adventures, touring local eateries or even performing short comedy sketches.  Try not to make the same type of post all the time. This can quickly get repetitive. Always be looking for unusual or exciting moments to share. Strive to be the only person doing what you do on the app. This may be the most important criteria of all. No one wants to feel like they’re being sold something, and if you’re not careful your users will catch onto the fact that you’re using your account to do the bidding of other companies. The snaps you post to your story should be personalized, authentic and come from a place of genuine interest.  Package your stories in creative, engaging ways that allow you to relate to your followers’ preferences. Give your Snapchat followers a more interactive experience by asking questions, posting surveys and urging them to share and post their own responses to your stories. New advances in social media technology have made it possible for users to embed URL links through apps like Emoticode. Downloading one of these programs will allow you to share the online address of your personal or business website to your followers. It will be much easier to get new eyes on your page if people aren’t forced to open a separate browser to find it. If you make a living by selling a particular product or service, be sure to display a link to your online store so that interested followers know where to go to make purchases. Teaming Emoticode with a money-processing program like Snapcash can make it possible to turn your account into an entertainment hub and...

TL;DR in English: Be original. Keep your content accessible. Include a link to your website. Sell directly through Snapchat. Buy your own Snapchat filter.

It might sound counter-intuitive, but going over what went wrong is an important step in healing, and yet it can also also prolong hurt feelings and confusion if you overdo it. How much time you need depends entirely on you, but aim to find the right balance. Go over your relationship to find the answers you need, and then put it behind you. For example, if he's grown distant because he's started hanging out with a much different crowd, acknowledging this is necessary for you to come to terms with what happened, but dwelling on it won't really accomplish anything. Identify what went wrong, but avoid the temptation of using your answers as a means to correcting mistakes and winning him back. Instead, aim to learn from your experience so you can apply those lessons to future relationships. Keep the future in mind, not the past. For instance, let's say that he broke things off because you betrayed a secret that he told you in confidence. Whether he can trust you again is up to him. All you can do is learn from this so you can avoid repeating the same mistake with someone else. Whether your relationship was romantic or platonic, perhaps the easiest explanation of why things went wrong is that the two of you weren’t well suited for each other. Evaluate your own wants, needs, hopes, and interests. Compare them with his. If they’re wildly different, also look back on other guys in your life. Ask yourself if they fall into a pattern so you know what to avoid in the future. Emotions are a fact of life, so don’t feel guilty about feeling whatever feelings come to you. However, keep in mind that a successful, mature relationship often requires you to have some (if not total) control over those feelings. Evaluate how often you allowed yourself to be swept away by them, especially the negative ones, like anger. Things may have been great between you two as long as everything else was fine, but his feelings may have changed after the two of you found yourself at odds. Think back about how you handled yourself in those...

People on the street are more likely to stop if you're playing an instrument well and can make it sound good. If you already know how to play a specific instrument, then focus your time and energy practicing your technique so you can get a better sound and play more fluidly. Try different playing techniques so you can continue to learn and master your instrument. You can play music on the street with any instrument you want as long as you're able to play it well. Smaller instruments, like the ukulele and violin, may not cut through the sound of a large crowd or a busy street so it may be difficult to hear. If you don't already play an instrument, find something that makes a loud noise, such as a trumpet, saxophone, drum, or electric guitar. Learn the instrument as well as you can so you can perform well when you find a place to set up. If you're unfamiliar with the instrument, consider taking lessons so you can learn proper techniques. If you can't play an instrument and aren't able to find one, you can always sing instead. Look for a microphone and a small amp you can use while you're performing so your voice stands out from the rest of the crowd. Practice singing your favorite songs as well as scales so you can improve your vocal control and technique.  You don't need a microphone to sing on the street if you already have a loud and strong voice. See if other performers want to get together so you can form a street band. Popular music is easily recognizable and makes it easier for a crowd to jam along with you. See what songs are currently popular on the radio so you can find the chords and lyrics for them. Look for classic songs that many people would know as well, such as hits from the 80s and 90s, so people can sing along and grow more interested in your performance. If you're playing a percussion instrument like drums, then you may not be able to play popular music as well as someone who can play guitar or sing. Instead, you may practice difficult rhythms from songs you already know or play your drums...

TL;DR in English: Choose an instrument that you already play for your performance. Play a loud instrument so people can hear you over other noises. Sing if you don't know how to play an instrument. Learn popular music that a lot of people will recognize. Plan at least an hour of songs to play so your material stays fresh.

While some hairstyles may work best with freshly washed, perfectly clean hair, the French knot actually works best with slightly dirty hair. When hair is immaculately clean, it’s often silky and hard to hold in place. While satin hair is often nice, it will slide out of your pins and the hairstyle won’t hold for the entire day. Hair that hasn’t been washed in a day or two will be full of natural oils that will help you create a shape that stays. If you have your heart set on wearing a French knot right now but you just washed your hair, don’t worry. You can mimic second day hair with product, which will be discussed later. Before you start creating your French knot, it’s important to work out all the tangles and knots. Begin combing from the bottom, slowly bringing your comb higher and higher. Don’t tug on your hair, as that can cause breakage. If you come across a tangle, gently focus on that section of hair until it’s untangled. Continue combing until you’re confident all of the tangles have been worked out. This step is especially important if your hair was recently washed, but it’s helpful to use a product on second or third day hair as well. Dry shampoo or texturizing spray both add a bit of “grit” to your hair, giving it texture that will keep it in your bobby pins. If your hair is silky and sleek, spray your hair with one of these products to make it a bit more coarse. Start spraying the product about an inch from your roots, coating your hair thoroughly and then running your hands through your hair to work the product in.

Despite the stereotypes and common misconceptions, there are no real meaningful differences among generations in the workplace. In fact, Millennials have many of the same career goals than any other generation. Many people have the notion that Millennials jump from job to job more quickly than the average worker. While Millennial’s aren’t as stagnant in their jobs as Boomers, the fact is that Millennials usually tend to stay longer at one job than their Gen-X counterparts. Remember that no generation can be summed up by blanket statements. Just because you meet a lazy or ineffective worker that is of Millennial age doesn’t mean that all Millennials are like that one person. Keep an open mind and remember that, when it comes down to it, Millennials are basically the same as you!

TL;DR in English: Recognize that many stereotypes about Millennials are untrue. Debunk the belief that Millennials job hop at an abnormal rate. Help fight against harmful Millennial stereotypes.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) indicates that some Agriculture and Food Safety Technicians may obtain a position without a post-secondary degree, but as an alternative it would require previous experience instead.  For this type of inspector, an education that has focused on biology, animal sciences, food sciences, or something similar are the best options. Many post-secondary institutions offer science degrees that may have specialties in agriculture and/or food-related topics at the undergrad level.  Degrees that are specifically in agriculture and food safety tend to be at the graduate level. In the United States, the Department of Agriculture employs inspectors through their Food Safety and Inspection Service and through their Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service.  The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) employs Food Safety professionals in their Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition.  In the private sector many agricultural organizations and food producers employ agriculture or food safety professionals to inspect and assess crops, animals and output. Agriculture and/or Food Safety professionals usually focus on a specialty of some kind, such as carbon management, microbiology, consumer safety, and import.  Each specialty may require slightly different qualifications that you need to be aware of before deciding which roles you wish to apply to. The Department of Agriculture requires that inspectors pass a written test in order to qualify for an entry-level position. Certification is not required for Agriculture and/or Food Safety professionals, but some organizations may require certification for certain inspector positions.  If not required, becoming certified will definitely help your job prospects.  The American Society of Agronomy offers certifications in a variety of specific agricultural disciplines. The Soil Science Society of America offers certifications specifically for the soil science specialty. The American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists (ARPAS) offers...

Do a ponytail for a classic look. Try a high bun for an elegant vibe. Do a simple braid to keep your hair out of your face.

Search your home for something you can use to reduce the friction between the slide and teeth of the zipper. This could be a bar of soap, a tube of chapstick or even a bottle of Windex—almost any type of smooth, slick substance will do the trick.  Some other options include wax candles, petroleum jelly, crayons and lip balm. Since so many different improvised lubricants can be effective, you should have a solution close at hand whether you’re at home, work or on the road.

A pony tail is a simple, classic hairstyle that works on nearly all hair types, curly hair included. To do a classic ponytail, gather your hair in back. You can gather all your hair, or just clip back part of it. A pony tail can fall high or low, depending on your preference. Once your hair is gathered, put the bungee in place or wrap an elastic band around your hair.  You can even create a slightly different look by parting your hair in the middle or to the side when creating a low ponytail. Consider going for a hair bungee over a conventional elastic bands. Curly hair may be too thick for the usual rubber bands. You can pick up hair bungees at most beauty stores and salons. They're elastic bands with 2 clips on the end. You would pull the band around your hair until it forms a ponytail, and then clip the bands together. If your hair feels too tight, try gently loosening the bungee or band. If you can't loosen it adequately, take your hair out of the ponytail and try again. A pony tail should take less than 5 minutes. A high bun is a quick, classic style that can be particularly flattering for curly hair. As with the classic ponytail, there are some special considerations to take when putting your hair in a high bun. To start, use your fingers to gather your hair in a high ponytail. Aim to have your bun resting towards the top of the back of your head. Then, use an elastic band or hair bungee to secure your hair.  From here, you can pad your hair gently with your hands or a soft-bristled brush, creating a bun shape. You can use a large scrunchie or a hair donut, which is a large and thick elastic band, to secure the bun shape you've created. Simply tuck the ends of your hair under the scrunchie or donut. If your hair still feels a bit loose, you can place some bobby pins around the base of your bun to secure it. You can also spritz your hair with a light bit of hairspray to keep the style in place. Alternatively, you could do a messy bun or make a top knot bun. If you have curly hair, you can try a simple...

If your crush is around and you start feeling overwhelmed, force yourself to pay attention to something else. Get out your class notes and study for an upcoming exam. Read a book. Talk to a friend. If you’re in class, focus on your teacher’s lecture. If you’re not in class, call/text a friend or play a game. Even if you end up staring blankly at a page and not reading a word, it will still help you keep your feelings private and under control. Repressing feelings for a crush can be really hard. If you find another outlet for your emotions, it can help you cope with them better. Lots of people find that journaling helps them sort out their feelings.  You could also try a creative activity, like painting or writing a song.  Physical activities can also help you deal with emotions. Go for a run or try a new sport. When you’re busy learning something new and interesting, your crush might not seem like such a big deal anymore. Trying something new will help you focus on something else. Try to immerse yourself in things that will get you out of the house and around other people. When you find yourself thinking about your crush, actively engage your mind with something else.

TL;DR in English: Distract yourself. Find a different way to express your emotions. Try a new hobby.

If you're away from home when you get stuck in hail, you can place your floor mats over your car windows. They probably won’t cover your entire windshield or back window, but they can offer some coverage. Place the floor mats on your windows with the fabric side facing up. This way the feet or grippers on the bottom of the mat will be on the window, and the mats won't slide around as much in high winds. You can find car covers at most auto supply stores and some grocery stores with automotive sections. You’ll need to know the make, model, and year of your car, because most car covers are specific to those classifications. Blankets or tarps can shield the car and absorb the impact of the hail, which can help prevent cracked class, dented metal, or chipped paint. Drape the blankets over the top of your car, from the back window all the way over the windshield. If you can, you should also hang blankets down the side to protect your smaller side windows, too.  The more blankets you can use, the better. You should have at least one layer of blankets covering your whole car, but if you can double or triple up the blankets, it will give your car more protection. If you’re short on blankets, cover your windows first. Duct tape the blankets at the bottom of your car. It shouldn’t damage your paint, but you might have a sticky residue after you remove the tape.

TL;DR in English: Throw your floor mats over your windshields if you don't have a cover or blankets. Use a car cover. Cover your car with blankets or tarps if you don't have a car cover.

Many controlling spouses isolate their partners by dominating their time or prohibiting them from going out with friends. If this is the case for you, you must stand up for yourself and let your spouse know that you have no intention of letting your other relationships suffer.  You are entitled to time alone as well, so let your spouse know if you need time to pursue your own hobbies or just be by yourself. Encouraging your spouse to take up hobbies may make this easier. You should still spend some time with your spouse if you are working to improve your marriage. Make this time count by doing enjoyable activities together. If your controlling spouse has repeatedly put you down, you may start to feel as though you did something to deserve that criticism. It's important to remind yourself that you deserve the best, and to do your best not to take this criticism personally. Internalizing criticism can cause you to doubt your own abilities. If this has happened to you, remind yourself of the goals you once wanted to achieve and dismiss any negative thoughts that your spouse may have planted in your head about your abilities. Taking small steps to achieve these goals is a great way to begin to free yourself of a controlling spouse. Many controlling spouses use guilt to control their partners. If your partner does this, you must recognize it as just another tactic that is being used to control you, and not let it affect your decisions.   Some controlling spouses may make their partners feel guilty by complaining about how they will not be able to function if the partner leaves, or even threatening to harm themselves. Other controlling spouses may make their partners feel guilty by making them feel as if they owe the controlling spouse something for housing them or loving them. Many controlling spouses dominate their partners by telling them what to think or what values to have. If you have opinions and beliefs that differ from those of your spouse, it is important to stand up for your right to maintain them.  If...

Use wet wipes to wipe yourself down. Give yourself a sponge-bath. Use dry shampoo on your hair to keep it fresh. Apply baby powder to your body after you wipe yourself down.

Although evening makeup can be more dramatic, you don't want to end up looking like a clown. It's all about balance.  A good rule of thumb is to pick either the eyes or the mouth to dramatize. Dark smoky eyes? Choose a neutral lip. Dark red lips? Choose a lighter palette for the eyes. You don't want your eyes and lips to be competing for attention when people look at you. Choosing one or the other to highlight is a more sophisticated choice, usually.

TL;DR in English: Pick your eyes or your mouth.

You can use scented moist towelettes or baby wipes, it's up to you. Use the wipes to thoroughly wipe down your armpits, privates and feet, as these are the areas most prone to bad odor. Then, use additional wipes to clean the rest of your body.  Use separate facial wipes to quickly clean your face. This may not have a significant impact on odor, but a clean face will help create the appearance of cleanliness. Facial wipes will also help prevent acne and other facial bacteria. You can use an actual sponge or a wet washcloth/towel to clean yourself. This is a great way to freshen up when you're in a hurry or when you don't want to waste water. Focus on your armpits, private areas, and feet first, and then give the rest of your body a wipe down. All you'll need is warm water, a washcloth, and a bit of soap to freshen up. If you don't wash your hair, it might get a little bit greasy (which can look and smell bad). If you want to freshen up your hair, simply spray your roots with dry shampoo. Dry shampoos usually come in spray or powder form. The best dry shampoos soak up oil, clean hair, leave you smelling fresh, and provide a boost of volume to your hair. Giving your hair a freshly washed look and smell will help you appear to be well-groomed.  Choose a spray dry-shampoo for best results and easy application. Dry shampoos can be purchased online, at beauty stores, and at your local convenience stores.   It's sometimes necessary to comb dry shampoo through your hair to get rid of any residue. The baby powder will leave a nice scent and absorb extra oils.
