Traits are the parts of you that don’t usually change much over time. They are characteristics about you that may be positive, while others might be a bit more negative. Your personality is the sum of all these traits and characteristics and is what makes you a unique person. Listing your traits can help you define your personality.  For example, you might write that you are sensitive, caring, stubborn, determined, ambitious, hard-working, and dependable. Use words that describe how you think, behave, and feel in general.  For instance, you could include: calm, a night owl, sociable, a good planner, or helpful on your list. Look at lists of personality traits online that others have used to define themselves. See which ones are applicable to you, then add words of your own. Include words that family and friends frequently use to describe you. For example, if they are always telling you that you’re comical, put it on the list. You may even ask family and friends to help you find descriptive words for yourself. Some studies suggest that your personality influences how you approach situations and your outlook on life. Other research suggests that personality traits influence behavior. So, look at your attitude and actions to understand how to define your personality.  Consider your attitude towards change. Write about a major change in your life. For example, you may write that you felt nervous and worried when you moved. Think about how you handle challenges and obstacles. Then consider how likely you are to take risks, and how you respond to failure or set-backs. Write down the personality traits that come to mind. For example, think about how you react when someone is rude to you. You might write, “I calmly tell them to stop and try to figure out what’s wrong.” Think about the things you do. Would you describe them as individual activities or social? For example, gardening, reading, and painting are individual activities. Social activities are things like team sports and participating in clubs and...

Talk to your doctor. Take swimming lessons. Choose the right accessories.

In order for you to make the right sounds with your slide, you need to learn to mute the strings above where your sliding. This will keep the strings from unwanted vibrations and keep them from producing unwanted sounds. To do this, gently press your fingers on the strings. Use just enough pressure to keep the strings from making unnecessary noises as they vibrate. To play your slide correctly, you need to make sure you are pressing it in the right place. You should not press the string under or above the fret because the note will sound flat.  You should also not press the string into the fretboard. Even if your eyes say that you are directly above the fret, listen to the note. If it sounds flat or wrong in any way, move your slide up and down until it makes the right note. To start learning to slide, pick a note on your guitar. Muting the other strings with your non-slide fingers, press gently with the slide and then move it up and down the strings to make the sliding sound. You can start slow to get a feel for the different technique of playing and motions needed to play with the slide on.  If you are using the slide on your middle finger, you will not be able to mute the strings. Just apply gently enough to get the sound you want. Try playing songs you are familiar with using your slide to get used to the different feel of the technique. When you use a slide, you should not press too hard on the strings. This will make the strings touch the fretboard, which will cause your guitar to make strange, unpleasant sounds. Move your hand up and down to gauge how hard you are pressing.  If it's hard to move the slide, you should lighten your pressure. The more you move your hand around, the better feel you will have for the strings. As you play note after note, the strings will continue to reverberate. If you slide up the string to your next note, all the notes in between will play as well. To avoid this, mute the strings between different notes using your other hand.  You can use the finger that you are picking...

TL;DR in English: Mute the strings above your slide. Press the slide directly above a fret. Slide into the notes. Use gentle pressure. Mute the strings between notes.

Be sure to consult your doctor to see if swimming, or other water exercise, is appropriate for your current condition. The doctor can advise you on swimming strokes that you should avoid, or equipment that might be particularly useful. Talking to your doctor can help you get the most out of water exercise, but it can also help you avoid potential injury. This is especially important if you don't remember how to do strokes, or if you have never swam before. This is also a great idea for anyone who is unsure of their form when swimming. Improper form can lead to imbalanced muscle mass, back and neck pain, and uneven strokes. Look for classes at a local recreational center, swim club, or gym. You can either choose to take private lessons or join a large class. It may only take a few sessions to get you swimming properly. Get a form-fitting swimsuit, swimming goggles, and a swim cap. If you are prone to ear infections, you may also want to get ear plugs. Buy aquatic shoes to protect your feet if you plan to swim in rivers or oceans.

Find out when tryouts are. Make a plan to manage your commitments. Prepare for the Cooper Test. Expect introductions and warmups. Have practice games in your neighborhood or with friends if possible.

Thoroughly break up the soil with a garden tiller or garden spade. This amount of space makes it easy for the roots to spread out, helping the tree grow. What’s more, grass is greedy – making sure it’s not around the base of your tree will prevent it from inhibiting your tree’s growth. Go 12 inches (30.5 cm) deep into the soil for the best support for the peach tree's roots. Spread the roots away from the base of the tree, but be careful not to bend them. Mix it up well, loosening the soil. Then, water the area where you will be placing the peach tree. Just a bit more than a light sprinkle will do; you do not want to saturate the dirt. If the pH of the soil is too low (you want the pH to be around 6.0-7.0), mix a few limes into the soil. Place the tree in your hole on a small mound of soil, and fill the hole back up. Pat the soil around the peach tree gently with a garden spade to secure it. If you have a grafted tree, position the inside of the curve of the graft union away from the sun.

TL;DR in English: Prepare a section of ground that is 5 feet (1.5 m) or more in diameter. Add peat moss and organic matter such as compost to the prepared soil. Plant your peach tree in the middle of the prepared soil.

They usually take place in the beginning or middle of August, and may be before school starts. Check the high school’s website for details. Make sure that you get the date and time for tryouts at your grade level. For instance, freshmen and sophomores might be eligible for any team, whereas juniors and seniors may be required to place on a specific varsity team. Read the instructions about tryouts to find out which one you should attend. If you make the team, you’ll need to balance the stresses of school with a rigorous athletic schedule. For instance, a high school soccer team may have four days of practice per week, plus games and your individual conditioning and practice.  The school will most likely require that you maintain at least average academic performance in order to stay on a school team. High schools often post team rules on their websites, so check the sports section of the school’s site for any such lists, and read them thoroughly. You want to know exactly what will be required of you. Plan to attend every practice, meeting and game. Schools may not accept unexcused absences from practices and games, and may not even accept certain excused absences (depending on school policy). The Cooper Test measures how far you can run in twelve minutes, so make sure that you can run for at least twelve minutes straight. This shows coaches that you will have the stamina to run during the games. You may also be asked to sprint specific distances, such as the 40-yard dash.  Practice alternating between jogging and sprinting as you build up the endurance to sprint. Make a schedule by yourself or with a personal trainer, that works backwards on the calendar from the date of tryouts to gradually increase your speed and distance. There may be a roll call or the coach may ask students to give a brief introduction, such as your name and why you’re interested in making the soccer team. This will likely be followed by collective or individual warmups. Practice warmups on your own, so that you will know how to warmup...

Employ a lightweight rod for buzzbaits and spinnerbaits. Employ a sensitive and lightweight rod for crankbaits and topwater lures. Employ a sensitive and lightweight graphite rod when using jigs or plastic/rubber lures.

This is the angle of practicality. Someone with a large bump at this point will be good with his or her hands. In fact, these hands will virtually be able to think for themselves.

The ideal rod is lightweight, 6.5–7 feet (2.0–2.1 m), with a medium action and medium soft tip. It’s important to ensure you use a sensitive rod because bass will often bump the blade before it strikes.  The lighter the rod is, the more sensitive the rod will be. A shorter rod will give you more accuracy in your cast but a longer rod will give your more power to set your hook, leverage when reeling in your bass, and distance to your cast. The ideal rod is lightweight, sensitive, 6–7 feet (1.8–2.1 m), fiberglass, and has a medium action tip or a light action tip based on the weight of your lure.  A medium action rod can also be used if it can set the hook and be flexible during your cast. A ⅛-ounce lure needs a light tip while a 314-ounce lure needs a medium tip. A sensitive rod helps you determine what type of structure you’re coming into contact with. A 7 ft (2.1 m) rod is effective when casting out a far distance and when using heavier baits. A 6 foot rod are more effective for accuracy when trying to cast towards fallen trees or in between structures. Fiberglass rods allow bass to inhale the hook before it’s set as the flex on the rod keeps the hook from becoming dislodged. The ideal rod is lightweight, extremely sensitive, 6.5–7 feet (2.0–2.1 m), graphite, and has medium action and a medium light tip.  When fishing deep water, sensitivity and weight are imperative so you can feel the bites without getting fatigued from holding up the rod in a 9 to 10 o’clock position over long periods of time. Use a 6.5 ft (2.0 m) rod when fishing structures 20 feet (6.1 m) or deeper and a 7.5 ft (2.3 m) rod when fishing anywhere shallower than 20 feet (6.1 m). Graphite is faster and more sensitive than fiberglass, which allows you to set the hook fast. It’s vital to have a soft tip to ensure that there’s tension with the bass at all times as you can easily lose a fish if only the point of the hook is embedded.

Lubricate all PVC connection points for easier installation. Snap the guttering section(s) into place. Attach 2 “offset bends” to the drain outlet to start the downspout. Mark the spot for the downspout’s bottom bracket. Screw the downspout brackets into the side of the shed. Cut and install a section of downspout along the shed wall. Connect another offset bend and a section of downspout tubing.

As soon as you start feeling overheated, stop what you’re doing and sit or lie down. Be as still as possible so that your body temperature will start to go down. If you feel dizzy or confused, ask someone to call for help while you rest. If someone else is feeling overheated, walk them over to a place where they can relax. If you’re experiencing heat exhaustion, you need to cool down quickly. If possible, go indoors to an air conditioned spot or sit in front of a fan. If you’re helping someone who’s experiencing heat exhaustion or a possible heat stroke, help them move to a cool location. They may be disoriented.

TL;DR in English: Stop being active and rest. Move to a shaded, cooler location.

Spray the cut ends of the guttering with a lubricant like WD-40. Lubricating these and all other connection points will make snapping or pressing the PVC into place much easier. PVC guttering simply snaps into place at the standard brackets, joint brackets, drain outlet section, and (if applicable) “stopend” section. Feed one end of the half-tube shaped guttering under the lip of each bracket where it’s attached to the fascia board. Then push down to snap the guttering into place, under the lip on the outer side of each bracket. If your chosen PVC guttering doesn’t come with dedicated “stopend” sections that you attach to the fascia, snap a water-tight “stopend” piece onto the open end of the guttering. The downspout will be made of fully-enclosed tubes, and the “offset bend” sections are short tubes bent at 112.5 degree angles. Spray lubricant onto each end of the offset bends, press them together firmly, then press them onto the stub of the drain outlet section that points downward. The sections of tubing should be snug in place, but you’ll still be able to twist them so that you can align the offset bends to point straight downward right up against the side of the shed. Use a level and a chalk line tool (or a string and tape or nails) to create a line on the shed’s wall that drops straight down from the opening of the offset bends. Mark the location for the lowest bracket about 50 cm (roughly 1.5 feet) from the ground if your downspout will spill out onto lower ground. However, if the ground is level or slopes up, place the lowest bracket at 1 m (roughly 3 feet) so the downspout will spill out further away from the shed. Install a downspout bracket at the lower mark you just made, and another just below the offset bends. Then add others down the string line at intervals no more than 1 m (roughly 3 ft) apart. Once again, mark the holes, pre-drill, and use 25 mm (1 inch) screws. Measure and cut it so that it runs from the offset bends to just below the bottom bracket. Use a hacksaw to cut the PVC downspout...

Buy seeds or veggie starts from a garden center. Test the soil and purchase necessary amendments. Remove all of the weeds and vegetation where you are going to plant your vegetables. Break up and amend the soil.

When possible, mount floating shelves on your walls to hold lightweight items like books, figurines, and small electronics. For bulkier items like musical instruments and potted plants, see if you can hang them by attaching adhesive hooks or anchor screws to the wall. Bulky items like pots and pans can take up a lot of unnecessary space in your kitchen cabinets. To fix this, try hooking them onto a wall-mounted pot rack or similar device. This will open up a lot of extra space for heavier and more fragile items. Instead of a professional pot rack, try purchasing a large pegboard. This will allow you to arrange your supplies in any way you see fit, conserving space in the long run. In many cases, concealed or walk-in pantries take up a lot of room they don’t need to. Creating an open-faced pantry with a free standing or wall mounted shelf system will better utilize the available space while encouraging you to pare down and organize the supplies you already have. Instead of using it to store food, keep bulky and non-perishable supplies in your pantry. Even if a room is perfectly organized, it may still feel cramped and uncomfortable to live in. Thankfully, there are some ways to rectify this without taking up more room:  Floor to ceiling curtains will create long lines along the wall, making your house look taller. Large mirrors will act like a portal to another room, making the area seem deeper. The color of your walls can alter how large or small your house looks. To make a room appear bigger, paint the walls a bright or pastel color. In addition, cover any wall trimmings in an even lighter shade of paint, creating a subtle contrast that makes objects look further apart. Some good color choices include:  Off-white Beige Baby blue Pastel green

If purchasing seeds, pick a brand that seems dependable and pick vegetable strains that seem reliable. You may want to do some research before you go to the garden center to decide exactly which type of each vegetable you want. If you are purchasing vegetable starts, pick plants that seem healthy and do not have discoloration or spots.  Consider whether you want organic or non-GMO veggie starts or seeds. While some people do not have a problem with genetic modification or pesticides, others do not what these kind of processes involved in the propagation of their food. It's up to you. You can also get good quality seeds and plants from springtime farmer’s markets, seed swaps hosted by local organizations, and online seed catalog companies. These amendments will depend on the current status of your soil and the needs of the vegetables you want to plant. If you have never planted before in the location you are using, take a soil sample and conduct a soil test. There are tests available at any garden center that will tell you the ph of your soil. Soil can go from very acidic all the way to very alkaline, as well as going from very sandy to very clay like. Figure out what kind of soil you have and try to move it more toward neutral by adding amendments. After assessing the soil, add some compost to it. Compost adds organic matter that breaks down and basically becomes food for your plant. Take the time to weed before you plant your veggies. Weeds will compete for nutrients with your new plants, making their success less likely. Get all the weeds from their roots, as many weeds can regenerate if even a bit of their roots are left intact. You will want to cultivate, or break up, the soil in an area a bit larger than where your plants will actually be. The root systems of many plants will grow to be quite large, moving outward from where the plant is initially planted. You can break the soil up by digging with a shovel or using a roto-tiller. As you mix the soil, add in any amendments you need to add based on the...

Some diseases and conditions can predispose you to kidney disease or may even make kidney disease worse. Try to get yourself as healthy as possible to help your kidneys repair themselves.  For example, if you have high blood pressure, then talk to your doctor about what you can do to lower your blood pressure. If you have diabetes, then do what you can to get your diabetes under control. A family history of kidney disease may also predispose you to kidney disease, so make sure that you take extra precautions if you have a parent, sister, or grandparent who has kidney disease. . Getting regular exercise can help you to stay in good overall health, prevent weight gain, and reduce blood pressure. If you are healthy enough for exercise, then you should try to get 30 minutes of physical activity five days of every week.  Check with your doctor to be sure that exercise is a good idea for you. Try to find something that you will enjoy so that you will stick with it. For example, you might find that you enjoy swimming, biking, hiking, dancing, or a combination of these activities. .

The first thing you need to do is give the girl some space. If you start knocking down her door and calling her every five minutes she'll only pull further away from you. The amount of space and time you give her depends on what happened when you tried to date her. If you ended a serious relationship, you'll need to give her more space than you would if you had just dated a few times.  Don't call her, chat with her at parties, or email her just to see how she's doing. If you see her socially, be polite and say hi, but make it clear that you're not going to bother her. Just don't give her too much space. If you leave her alone for a few months, that will give her plenty of time to find someone new. Not only should you give her some space, but you should give yourself some space to reflect and think about what went wrong in the relationship. Take the time to sit down and ask what you did to make her not want you; were you too attentive, too moody, or too distant? Whatever you did, you have to make sure never to do it again if you want a moment of her day.  Write down the things that went wrong. Consider what you can do to improve this kind of behavior. Don't date anyone else during the reflection period. Focus on self-improvement and working on not repeating the same mistakes. Don't pursue her until you've figured out what went wrong and know how to change it. Though you should avoid getting busy in the bedroom while you're trying to win your girl back, you should try to live a busy and active life so you can work on being independent and pursuing your interests.

Every now and then you might like to try studying in a small groups with some of your friends and classmates. This can have advantages and disadvantages, and will depend on how well you work together. Obviously if you end up just talking about other things you are not studying your geography, so you need some discipline. This might be easier for some than others, so if you are trying to work and your friend keeps chatting, try to steer them back on topic and then maybe study on your own in the future. One of the big advantages of studying a group is that you can test each other and see where you have gaps. You can do this by using the flashcards you prepared. Pick up a card and read out the term, such as “Igneous rock!” and see who is able to describe and define it more precisely.  This also works with maps. Draw the outline of a country on a piece of paper and use it as a quiz question. Or say the name of the country and see who can draw it. You can test capital cities in this way too. You can keep score to make it more fun. If your exam has essay questions, it can be very helpful to do a few practice answers and go through them with a friend. Compare how you have approached the question and analyse which of you has best answered the question. Pick out the strengths and weaknesses of each of your approaches, but remember your friend might not be right.  You can ask your teacher if they will look at a practice answer. You could also ask a parent or older sibling. By being faithful and applying yourself to your studies, you'll be able to memorize important facts and do well on the exam. Keep your discipline and stick to your study plan. Remember that you reap what you sow. If you do miss a session, don’t give yourself a really hard-time, but make it up over the next day or two with some extra study.

Every family member old enough to follow instructions should know what to do when a quake happens. The more you rehearse the actions, the more natural the self-protection reaction will be when the quake occurs and everyone will be less likely to panic.  Practice the "drop, cover, hold" drill in each selected safe place. Hunker down beneath the sturdy furniture or against the interior wall, cover your neck and head, and hold on. Make it a habit to hold quake drills once a month if you live in a quake-prone area. Make it fun, such as combining quake-drill night with takeout food or a movie together afterward. By making it a family affair and associating the rehearsal with positive things, being quake-safe becomes a fact of your everyday life, not something to be afraid of. Prepared people stay alive. Make sure that every family member is aware of the following:  If you're outside, get away from power lines, buildings, street lights and anything else that might fall on you. Be aware that glass windows shatter and can rain shards down onto the street, so buildings with large glass expanses are not safe to be under during a quake. If you're inside, do not try to run outside. If you do, you risk being hit by falling debris from awnings, glass shards, bricks, scaffolding, cement decorations forced off buildings, etc. Show family members how to use radios, cooking equipment, flashlights, etc. that are powered by electricity or other contained energy sources. Have a few practice runs; you could even have an entire night of camping in your home to see how it goes. Never cook indoors with fuel stoves or barbecues. Carbon monoxide is one of the by-products of burning fuels; it is odorless and colorless and it kills quickly. Always keep cooking gear outdoors and make sure every family member is aware of this need. Tell children that if they cannot operate the cooking gear safely should you not be there to help them during any emergency, that they should eat only cold food from cans, dried packages and (within 12 hours)...

Buy some white roses. Cut the stem down at an angle. Split the stem halfway. Place the rose into a vase filled with clear water. Fill 2 to 4 cups with warm water. Stir your desired dyes into the cups. Place the split rose stem into the cups. Wait for the rose to change colors. Transfer the rose to a vase filled with fresh water.

Empty a can of frosting into a large mixing bowl using a spatula or spoon. Add 1 teaspoon (5 mL) of a flavored syrup, such as caramel, raspberry, hazelnut, cherry, butter pecan, or mango. Mix the syrup into the frosting with an electric mixer or by hand. Taste the frosting, then mix in more of the flavored syrup, if desired. Put a can of frosting in a large mixing bowl and add 8 oz. of cream cheese. Use an electric mixer to combine the ingredients, or mix them together by hand. This addition provides a creamier, richer flavor to the frosting. Use a spatula to empty a can of frosting into a mixing bowl.

Dye only adds to what color is already there; it does not replace color. If you want the dye to come out true to its color, you should use white roses. Use a sharp knife to cut the stem down until they are 10 to 12 inches (25.4 to 30.5 centimeters) long. Make sure that the bottom is cut at a slight angle. Take this time to trim off any leaves, thorns, and buds as well. Set the rose down on a cutting board or cutting mat. Use a sharp craft blade to cut the stem in half lengthwise. Stop when you are halfway up the stem. If you are using shorter glasses, you can split the stems only 3 inches (7.6 centimeters).  If your rose had a very thick stem to begin with, you can cut the stem into three or four sections instead.  If you snap the stem by mistake, cut the entire stem down to 5 to 6 inches (12.7 to 15.2 centimeters), and dye it a single color. At this point, you can cut and split more roses, or move onto the next step. You will need ½ cup (120 milliliters) of warm water. How many cups you use depends on how many sections you cut your rose stem into. You will need one cup per section. Use cups that have straight walls. Roses drink up warm water more quickly than cool water. You will need 20 to 30 drops of food coloring for each cup. If you can't find food coloring, you can use liquid watercolor instead. Use a different color for each cup. Move the cups close together first, so that the rims are touching. Carefully spread apart the split rose stem. Place each section into a separate cup. Make sure that the stem is submerged in the dye as far as it will go. The longer you let the rose sit in the dye, the deeper the color will become. If you want a pastel color, wait at least 4 hours. If you want a deeper color, wait several days.  These roses won't end up with each petal a different color. They will be dyed in sections, like a pie chart.  Rose petals have veins in them, which will look darker. If you want them to be less visible, leave the rose in the water for twice the recommended time. If you want to, you can...

This isn't absolutely necessary, but it's useful, as it allows you to visualize your given data as a range of values over a length of time. For our purposes, simple tables will usually suffice - simply use two columns, listing your values for time in the left column and the corresponding values for your quantity in the right column, as above. Your data should have regular values for time, each with a corresponding value for your quantity. The units for these time values aren't important - this method will work for data collected over spans of minutes, seconds, days, etc. In our case, our data is expressed in terms of years. Insert your past and present values into a new formula:  (present) = (past) * (1 + growth rate)n where  n = number of time periods.  This method will give us an average growth rate for each time interval given past and present figures and assuming a steady rate of growth. Because our example uses years, this means we'll get an average  annual  growth rate. Manipulate the equation via algebra to get "growth rate" by itself on one side of the equal sign. To do this, divide both sides by the past figure, take the exponent to 1/n, then subtract 1. If your algebra works out, you should get:  growth rate = (present / past)1/n - 1 . Insert values for your past and present values, as well as a value for n (which will be the number of time intervals in your data, including your past and present values.) Solve according to basic principles of algebra, order of operations, etc.  In our example, we'll use our present figure of 310 and our past figure of 205, along with a time period of 9 years for n. In this case, the average annual growth rate is simply  (310/205)1/9 - 1 = .0422     0.0422 x 100 = 4.22%. On average, our value grew by 4.22 percent each year.

TL;DR in English: Organize your data in a table. Use a growth rate equation which takes into account the number of time intervals in your data. Isolate the "growth rate" variable. Solve for your growth rate.

As soon as the grill is ready, use a pair of long-handled tongs to transfer the steak to the center of the grill. Don't use a fork to move the steak around, or you'll pierce the meat and release the juices.  Cook the steak for three to five minutes on the first side. After three minutes, start checking the underside for browning. When the first side is browned, flip the steak with tongs and cook for another three to five minutes on the other side. A braai steak is traditionally only cooked to medium rare. This will take about seven to 10 minutes in total. If you have a meat thermometer, the ideal temperature for the steak is 120 to 125 F (49 to 52 C). If you don't have a meat thermometer, gently press the steak with your finger when you think it's done. If the meat provides little resistance and gives easily to your push, then it's ready. As soon as the meat is cooked, remove it from the grill with the tongs. Place the meat on a fresh plate or wooden board. Set the meat aside to rest for about 10 minutes. Resting meat makes for a juicier steak because it prevents the juices from spilling out when the meat is cut. Steak and potatoes are a classic combination, and roasted potatoes are a great side dish for braai steak. Asparagus is also a fantastic pairing with steak, and grilled asparagus nicely complements a braai steak.

A desoldering pump, also called a solder sucker, vacuums up melted solder to separate soldered components from a circuit board. Thoroughly examine both sides of the board to isolate the specific spots holding each component in place.  The desoldering pump works best for through-hole connections. You can use it on surface-mounted devices as well, but it is less effective. That said, it's one of the cheapest options. You can easily ruin a circuit board by accidentally separating the board layers during the desoldering process. Ensure that you only desolder the exact pins you need to remove a faulty component. Using isopropyl alcohol on a toothbrush, gently clean the terminals of the component(s) to be removed. Ensure that you clean only the terminals on the soldered side of the board and not anything on the component side. The heat from the soldering iron can damage sensitive components such as integrated circuits or transistors. To dissipate some of the heat, clip a metal alligator clip between the component and the terminal you plan to desolder. Turn your soldering iron on and let it heat up for about three minutes. Using a wet sponge make quick passes from base to tip over your soldering iron to clean it. You may see a tiny bit of smoke as you pass the sponge, but it's just from the moisture in the sponge. Press the end of the pump until it clicks into place. This compresses a spring, and latches it in the depressed position. Using the tip of your soldering iron, heat the old solder until it melts. You can push the terminal with the soldering iron tip at the same time to help free the component as the old solder melts. Use an old soldering iron if you have one, since pushing with the iron can wear the iron down. Touch the tip of the desoldering pump to the solder pad and melted solder, without applying pressure. Release the spring (usually by pushing a button on the side) and the piston will shoot back quickly. This creates a vacuum which pulls the melted solder up into the pump.  The tip of the pump may...

Watch for the female to start laying eggs and the incubation period. Remove the nesting material after the female has started laying. Let the hatchlings be fed by their parents. Provide a complete egg protein while the birds are feeding their young. Watch for the hatchlings to be weaned. Discourage too frequent breeding.

Use a brush to neatly comb back your hair. Gather it into a ponytail and secure it with an elastic either at the top of your head for a top knot or the back of your head for a regular bun. Wrap the end of the pony around the base, and pin it in place with bobby pins. You can also leave your hair down if you prefer. For a front of the head bun, you should use a large rectangular scarf. Carefully fold the scarf lengthwise into a thin band that’s approximately 3-inches (8-cm) wide. If you prefer, you can fold the scarf smaller than 3-inches (8-cm).

TL;DR in English: Put your hair in a topknot or a low bun. Create a thin band from a rectangular scarf.

A female will lay up to 7 eggs, doing 1 a day. Both the male and female will sit on the eggs during this period, incubating them. Once the eggs appear, they will hatch in about 2 weeks. If an egg hasn't opened in 3 weeks, it's not going to. Take it out of the cage. If you notice an egg, remove the extra nesting material from the bottom of the cage. If you don't, the birds may build layered nests, with a clutch of eggs on the bottom of the nest, nesting material, another clutch, and so on. These birds will keep breeding over and over, but to stay happy and healthy, they really need a break between clutches of eggs. You can also remove the other nesting boxes if you don't have other breeding pairs in the same cage. The finches will know how to feed the babies, so you do not need to do anything. The babies will have feathers in about 2 weeks and start moving out of the nest at about 18 days. After that, the parents will feed the chicks another 2-3 weeks. In fact, if you try to wean the birds early, it can cause poor health. Look for a bird food mix that has egg in it, as that is a complete protein. Feeding it to your birds while they're caring for their young will help raise healthier, stronger birds. You can also continue to feed them their regular food, too. Typically, after 4-5 weeks, the parents will start chasing off the babies to begin weaning them, particularly if they've got another clutch started. If you start seeing this behavior, move the hatchlings to a new cage so they can get some peace from their parents. If the babies are too young to be moved, you can take the new eggs away from the parents instead and dispose of them, which will get the parents to focus on the older hatchlings. These birds will continue to breed over and over if you let them, but you really shouldn't allow a single pair to breed more than 4 times a year. To discourage them, put the birds on finch seed mix and avoid feeding them greens. Also, only have nesting materials in the cage when you want the birds to breed. If you need...

Open the spreadsheet program of your choice. Put in column headings. Create cells for recording monthly income. Make a cell that calculates total monthly income. Fill in expense titles. Sum up expenses. Write in an equation for finding total monthly cash balance.

After months of crawling about, your baby will finally be ready to attempt her first steps. Don’t focus on getting her to walk right away, though. Help your baby practice her balance and coordination. Then, when her leg muscles are up to the task of walking, she will be equipped to take confident steps. Resist putting your baby in a stroller or a sling; let her walk everywhere.  Let her cruise barefoot on the furniture; this will encourage her to walk on her own and is definitely more helpful than any kind of walker out there. Instead of getting a walker with a seat, get a stable push toy that will act as her stabilizer. Give your baby some small balls or clean socks to shoot into a laundry basket; the act of bending down, picking up something, and standing up again is great for balance practice.  Play freeze dance to practice her inhibitory control or her ability to stop her body from moving. Get a big soft ball and let her practice kicking it to each other, or sit on the floor and roll or throw a ball to each other.

TL;DR in English: Get ready for baby's first steps. Encourage her to stand on her own two feet as much as possible. Practice different types of movements.

To create a spreadsheet, you will need to use a spreadsheet program. Many different programs are available for free online if you don't already have a program like Microsoft Excel or Numbers installed on your computer. For example, Google Drive, Apache OpenOffice, Zoho Sheet, and Excel Online are just a few of the many free options available to you. Once you've found a program to use, install it and open the program up to a blank sheet in a new workbook (a collection of sheets). Skip the first cell and put "Amount" in cell B1. This column will record the value of every other item on the sheet. Go to the next cell to the right, C1, and write in "Due Date." This column will record due dates of various bills or payments, where necessary. Go another cell to the right, to D1, and write in "Paid?" or something similar. This is an optional column that allows you to track whether or not the bills due at the dates in the C column have been paid. Start in cell A2 by typing in "Income." This simply serves as a heading for the rest of your income items. Then, go to the next cell down, A3, and type "Net Pay." Then, type "Other Income" in the next cell down, A4. For most people, this will be all the income line items you will need. However, if you receive a substantial amount of income from another source (investment income, royalty income, etc.), you may want to include additional line items for those types of income. When you've created cells for all of your types of income, you'll need one that totals up your monthly income. Create this cell in the next available cell underneath your last income line items (so, if you only have "Net Pay" and "Other Income," this will be cell A5). Write "Total Income" in this cell. In the cell directly to the right of that cell (B5 in the example), you need to create a formula to calculate total income. This formula is the SUM formula.  Start by typing "=SUM(" in that cell. Then, click the cell to the right of "Net Pay" and drag down to the cell to right of your last income line item...

Eminem writes down his lyrics and the thoughts that he has. Instead of trying to think of lyrics off the top of your head, write down lyrics that can be used in different situations and for different songs. Keep a notepad or smartphone with you so that you can write down lyrics as you think of them. Eminem aims for perfection and edits his work in order to achieve it. Read over the rhymes you have and try to tighten them up. If there are lines that have too many or too little syllables, edit them so everything fits. Find precise adjectives for the lyrics that you're writing and continue to refine your work. One way to expand your vocabulary is by reading as much as you possibly can. Look up new words in the dictionary and grow your repertoire of rhyming words. Novels, newspapers, and blogs can help expand your vocabulary. This will help you think of lyrics as you write new songs. Many times Eminem’s lines don’t rhyme but they sound like they do. This is commonly referred to as “bending words” and can be used to rhyme two words that sound similar but don’t rhyme. Adjust the pronunciation of certain vowels so that the words sound the same.  For example, in “Lose Yourself” Eminem rhymes “arms are heavy” with “mom’s spaghetti.” “Arms” and “mom’s” don’t rhyme, but can sound similar if you enunciate the o and m at the end of “mom’s” to sound like the r and m in “arms.” In “Lose Yourself”, Eminem uses bending words to create the lines “oh there goes Rabbit/ he choked he’s so mad but he/no he won’t have it he.” In this rhyme, “oh” sounds like “choked” and “no,” “goes” sounds like “so” and “won’t,” and Rabbit sounds like “mad” and “have.” Words like “duck” and “truck” are single syllable rhymes. Eminem employs a more advanced rhyming scheme in the majority of his songs known as multisyllabic rhyming. This means that multiple parts of each word or multiple syllables within a word rhyme. When writing down your rhymes, break down larger words into parts and try to rhyme each corresponding part with another word. The song...

Small, flat items are easy to wrap. Larger items, like DVDs aren't because they are large and rigid. If you want to include a larger gift, then stick with something flexible, like a pair of socks. Remember, these items have to wrap and curve around each other in order to form a spherical shape. The outer layers of a saran wrap ball should be inexpensive. Candy is a great choice, but you can also choose goodie bag fillers, stocking stuffers, and other $1 toys. For example:  Edible treats, such as chocolate, mints, or gum. $1 toys, such as plastic bugs, toy cars, or crayons. $1 stocking stuffers, such as hand sanitizer, lip balm, or compact mirrors. As the ball grows smaller, the game will get more exciting and intense. Here is where you should put in larger, more expensive gifts. Themed jewelry and socks that are in the $2 to $5 range are great here. You could even step the gifts up to a $10 or $15 value here. For example:  Christmas jewelry, such as necklaces or earrings. Christmas accessories, such as scarves or socks. Money in $1 or $5 increments. This is the final prize, so it should be something that is worth waiting for! Gift cards are the most popular choice, but you can also pick out something that's more expensive too. For example:  A small, themed gift, such as an action figure. Money, but in a higher amount, such as a $20 or $50 bill. Movie or concert tickets. Candy is appropriate for all ages, but as you get towards the center of the ball, you should consider what your guests would like. You don't want to let them down with something that they wouldn't find interesting, after all. For example:  A 7-year-old might enjoy a $15 gift card to a toy store. A college or high school student might prefer a $25 gift card to iTunes. An adult might appreciate a $50 gift card to store that sells home décor or accessories. Saran wrap balls are a popular Christmas party game, but you can also play them during other events, such as baby showers or bridal showers. Party supply stores are a great place to pick up...

You are not alone, the abuse was not your fault, and no one ever deserves to experience abuse in any way. One step to healing from abuse is to recognize that you did nothing to deserve disrespectful treatment. As a human, you have rights to be treated decently by those in your life, by strangers, family members, and intimate partners alike. Recognize that each human has the right to be treated with respect, have their opinions heard, to change their mind, to be listened to and to be treated with respect at all times. . Emotionally abusive people often force you to put their needs, desires, and demands above your own. This desire for harmony and less conflict can slowly choke out your voice, leaving you feeling like you don’t know what you want or who you are. Learn to rediscover your inner voice. One way to do this is to begin making decisions on your own and learning not to second-guess yourself.  While decisions can be scary at first, start with small decisions and build your self-confidence. Try asking yourself something simple, such as, “What do I want for dessert tonight? Cherry ice cream or chocolate?” As you gain confidence making simple decisions, you may start to feel more confident about making more difficult decisions. Try to develop a system for making difficult decisions, such as identifying the problem and using a pros and cons list to weigh your options. . After enduring emotional abuse, you may have lost touch with your own preferences for things. Spend some time reclaiming yourself by engaging in liking and disliking things. Do things for yourself that bring you happiness and joy. Do things that you enjoy without worrying about pleasing anyone else. To start, you may go to a candle shop and find which scents you enjoy. You can also cook or buy foods that you enjoy on your own, even if other people don’t enjoy them. You may feel like your self-esteem has been shattered after enduring an emotionally abusive relationship. Take time to recognize your positive qualities. You can choose memories of...

If you want to grow purple roses, the easiest way is to get a 'parent' purple rose and use it to make more purple rose plants. The first step is to find a florist who can provide you with a fresh purple rose. Then, if you are very lucky, you may be able to get this rose to take root and grow into a viable plant. It's best to plant a cut rose when the rose is freshly picked. As the cut rose you obtained from the florist's may not be freshly picked, it's best to trim off the last inch and a half of stem. This freshens the cut surface of the rose. Always make the cut at a 45 degree angle, using a clean sharp blade such as garden secateurs (pruning shears). Alternatively, if you know someone who grows purple roses, you can request to make a cutting from their plant in order to grow your own purple rose bush. To cut from an existing plant, take about 8 inches (20.3 cm) of healthy green growth in the late summer or fall, cutting at a 45 degree angle. Once you have obtained your freshly cut rose, remove the leaves and dip the end of the stem into a rooting compound. Insert 2/3 of the stem into a cutting compost mix (or regular compost mixed with grit). Under the right conditions, the cutting will take about a year to develop enough root growth for replanting elsewhere. Not all cuttings will 'take' (i.e. develop roots) so always plant more cuttings than you need. Gardeners can usually count on between a third and a half of all cuttings developing into viable plants.

Follow the steps in the Part 2 above to create a new, transparent layer on top of your image with no fill. Make sure that this is a separate layer than the "Color Mode" layer you may use with the Bucket Fill tool above. This button looks like a paintbrush icon in the toolkit on the top-left of the app window.  This tool will allow you to manually paint new colors on the pictures. Optionally, you can adjust your paintbrush stroke's size, angle, hardness and other attributes on the bottom-left section. On the left-hand side, click the front layer of the two color layers, and open the color selector. You can select any color in the color selector pop-up or enter RGB/HTML values to pick an exact color. This drop-down menu is located at the top of all your image layers on the right-hand side, and should be set to "Normal" by default. Make sure the new, transparent layer you created for the paintbrush process is selected on the Layers list. Do not select the original picture here. This will allow you to change the color hue of the areas you paint with your paintbrush. You can use your mouse to paint on the picture, and change the color hue of any part of the image. You should be painting on the transparent "Hue" layer, and not the original picture.

Decide whether you'll write about a medieval, futuristic or any other type of era. Take the time to imagine your fantasy world and the characters within it. Take notes or write an outline of how your fantasy world works. For example, if you have included supernatural creatures, are there special rules they must live by - like vampires avoiding sunlight. Rules help to give your world structure. If your story isn't set on Earth then it may be useful to draw up maps of your new world which could be included in your finished novel to give your readers a better idea of what it looks like. Don't stress too much about how well the map looks. It's purpose is to help you keep track of where all the important places are in your world. If you want to include a map in your book, you can create a beautiful detailed map later. The best fantasy novels make the unbelievable, believable by giving the reader familiar themes that they recognize. Even if your main character isn't human, they must have human problems. For example are they dealing with family feuds, relationship issues or personal problems that your reader can relate to. If they can relate to the problems then they will feel empathy to your character and care about their plight. Look at the current bestselling fantasy novels and see if you can find their unique selling point. You can be inspired by them but don't plagiarize your favorite writers. They were published for their uniqueness, so you need to seek your own. Do you want your small novel to end up in as a long series? Make a "mind map" to get a hold on all the possible outcomes.

Find out if you can have a clothesline. Mark an area where you will place the clothesline. Determine how high the poles should be. Purchase the materials. Gather the tools.

Your footgear can either aid your quest for becoming stealthy or be a dead giveaway of your presence, every time. You need to choose the proper footgear for the environment in when you'll be moving. Practice walking and running in your chosen footgear often, so you'll get used to the tiny noises it makes.  If you're in a house, it's best to wear socks, as they are soft, and they are comfortably fitting. Going barefoot is also a good option, unless the floors are wood. Depending on your natural tendencies, sweat and excess moisture may cause you to slightly stick to the floor. This doesn't hinder your pace, however if it is dead quiet, like the middle of the night, and a target is near, the tiny 'schluk' noises your foot may make can be very detrimental. Wearing socks is nearly always your best bet indoors. Carry your shoes with you and put them on when you're clear of the house. If you're in a place with lots of grass or leaves, use socks or go with bare feet, carrying your shoes, however be wary about going barefoot in an area containing many rocks, glass/bottles, or patches of spiny plants. The last thing you want is a bleeding or painful foot while trying to sneak away.  You could also wear toe shoes or water shoes, but be careful: if these types of shoes get soaked, they can emit a "squish" sound as your foot hits the ground. To cross a rocky place (pebbles, gravel, etc.), you must use a pair of thick socks or bare feet. Soft socks and bare feet cushion the impact, but shoes will push the stones down and out, making the sound of rocks moving. For walking in a mixed environment, like a suburban street with a road, gravel, and grass, wear running shoes with soft, flexible soles. Be careful not to walk flat-footed with these shoes. The clothing you choose should match the colors of the terrain you'll be crossing, and the time of day should also be taken into account. Wear darker colors at night, and earth tones during the day. Choose fabrics that are comfortable and don't make swishy sounds. Cotton is always...

Not all neighborhoods, subdivisions, and cities allow clotheslines. Some people believe that they look bad in yards or neighborhoods. Check with your Home Owner's Association or city ordinances. Most loads of clothes use 35 feet of line. The length of line needs to accommodate at least one load. The area you place the clothesline in shouldn't be a high traffic area. Make sure it's not in an area where people or dogs frequently walk. You also don't want the clothesline to hang over anything, like flowers, a pool, or shrubbery.  Don't make the line any longer than that. The longer the line, the more sag the line will  have.  Avoid placing your clothesline under trees that drip sap, leaves, or other material. You also want to avoid placing your clothesline under trees with a lot of birds.  If you want to dry colored clothes, make sure there is a spot in the shade so the colors don't fade. You can spread clotheslines between multiple posts or multiple trees if you plan on drying many loads at one time. When building your clothesline, you want to make sure that it is the proper height. You don't want the clothesline to be too tall so that you can't easily hang your clothes. On the other hand, you don't want the line to be too low so that larger items, such as blankets and sheets, touch the ground. The wood for your posts need to be taller than how high you want the poles. Part of the pole will be in ground. For a 6 ft. clothesline, you will need at least wood that is 8 ft. tall. To make a proper clothesline, you need to purchase the right materials. You will need:  2- 4 x 4 x 10′ treated wood posts 2- 2 x 2 x 8′ treated wood posts 8 - 1/4″ x 6″ hot dip galvanized lag screws (and washers) 2 - 1/4” x 8” galvanized lag bolts 8 – eye hooks 2 – clothesline tighteners 2 – quick links 100 ft clothesline 2 bags Quikrete To make a clothesline, you will have to saw wood, drill holes for bolts, and dig a hole into the ground.

Why did the two of you get into a fight? Sometimes friends disagree and need to clear the air, just like couples argue. Fighting isn’t always bad; you can express your feelings and resolve misunderstandings. But sometimes, a fight may be bigger than a simple disagreement, and it may cause you to reevaluate your friendship.  Know your limits. There may be some behaviors that you consider unforgivable. For example, you may not be able to tolerate betrayal, gossip, or cheating. If your fight crossed one of these lines, you may decide you need to end the friendship.  Sometimes friends may fight over different values. If this is the case, you may want to determine if sharing differing belief systems is a deal-breaker. For example, while you may not share the same political views, is this something that you can get past? Maybe you could agree to not talk about politics, or to share your views without arguing and agreeing to stop if things get hostile. Some friends may just be more confrontational, and having fights with each other is common. One or both of you may have certain behaviors that always trigger arguments. You may also notice fight patterns in your relationship, particularly if you have been friends for a while.  Consider your personalities. You may just be two people who like to argue -- with everyone or each other -- a lot. As long as that works for both of you, then it’s probably not necessary to end the friendship. But if you feel like you are fighting a lot, you might want to consider talking to your friend about arguing less. You and your friend may always find yourself fighting because of someone’s bad habits; for example, you are perpetually late in meeting your friend. If that’s the case, it may be better to address the behavior rather than end the friendship.  For example, you may notice that you and your friend don’t argue for long stretches at a time about anything, then all of the sudden have a huge blow-up which leaves you not speaking for weeks. You may want to talk to your friend about...

TL;DR in English: Consider the reasons behind your fight. Look at the history of your friendship. Think about your friend’s behavior. Consider your feelings about the friendship.

Let's say the ionic compound you're working with is NaCl. Use a pen or pencil to write this down on a sheet of paper. Or, if you're working in a classroom, write "NaCl" on the whiteboard. This is an example of a basic ionic compound. Basic compounds do not contain transition metals and contain only 2 ions. The first part of an ionic compound is called the "cation," which is a metal. This is the positively charged ion in the compound, and it is always written first in ionic compound formulas. Check the period table to find the name of “Na” if you need to. Na is sodium. So, write sodium. Regardless of the kind of ionic compound you’re dealing with, the name of the metal is always written first. The second component of an ionic compound is the non-metal anion. Write the non-metal's name with an "-ide" ending. Cl is chlorine. To add the "-ide" ending, just drop the 1 or 2 syllables ("-ine" in this case), and add "-ide" instead. Chlorine becomes chloride. This naming principle applies to other anions as well. For example, in an ionic compound, “Phosphorus” becomes “Phosphide” and “Iodine” becomes “Iodide.” Once you’ve found the names for the 2 components of the ionic compound, you’ve done nearly all of the work. Now you just need to put the parts together. NaCl can be written as sodium chloride. Once you've figured out how to name this ionic compound, try naming a few more simple ionic compounds. Memorizing a few common ionic compounds can help you have a better understanding of how to name ionic compounds. Remember that you don’t need to worry about the number of individual ions when naming the compounds. Here are a few more common ionic compounds:  Li2S = Lithium sulfide  Ag2S = Silver sulfide  MgCl2 = Magnesium chloride

Pack the calamari in a jar. Add the pickling spices and vinegar. Top with the oil. Refrigerate for one day to one week. Serve cold. Store chilled.

A potato with high starch and lower water content will always be best for french fries. Try using russet potatoes that are slightly older, if possible. To help maintain uniform shape, pick larger, evenly shaped potatoes. Soaking your fries in water removes excess starch and prevents the fries from getting stuck together. Soak your fries for five minutes and strain. Place them on a plate in a single layer then pat them with paper towels. Let them lay out for a few minutes to air dry.

TL;DR in English: Start with the correct potato. Soak your fries in a bowl of cold water.

Transfer the cooked squid rings and tentacles to your prepared jar. The jar should be anywhere from halfway to three-quarters full. Do not pack the jar to the very top, however, since there will not be enough room for the spices and liquid if you do so.    Place the remaining three bay leaves, black peppercorns, garlic, and oregano or rosemary in the jar. Pour the white vinegar on top.  While not strictly essential, you may want to toss the spices and squid gently inside the jar to spread the seasonings more evenly.     Pour enough vinegar over the contents of the jar to cover the squid completely. Make sure that there is at least 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 3.75 cm) of empty headspace at the top of the jar when finished, however.     White vinegar is used in this recipe, but you can experiment some with the pickling liquid. For instance, try white wine or white wine vinegar. The liquid you use must be acidic, though, so keep that in mind before you choose to experiment with another option.    Slowly pour the oil on top of the contents in the jar. You should have a layer of oil that is roughly 3/4 inch (2 cm) thick.  The oil should float on top of the vinegar. It serves as another barrier against air and other contaminants.     Do not fill the jar to its brim. Always leave at least 1/4 to 1/2 inch (0.6 to 1.25 cm) of empty headspace at the top of the jar, just in case the contents expand during refrigeration.     After adding the oil, place the lid on the jar. Make sure that the seal on the lid is secure and airtight.    Place the sealed jar in your refrigerator and keep it there for a minimum of one day. For best results, allow the jar to sit in the refrigerator for a full week.  During this time, the pickling spices will marinate and flavor the calamari. The vinegar and remaining salt will be able to pickle the squid during this time, as well.     The longer you let the calamari rest, the stronger the flavor will be.    To serve the pickled calamari, remove it from the marinade and serve it immediately. Pickled...

Steady state cardio is any aerobic exercise that keeps your heart rate at a relatively stable level for at least 10 minutes.  This type of exercise will help burn calories and support your metabolism.  In general, it's recommended to get at least 150 minutes of aerobic activity each week (or 30 minutes five days a week).  Aim for a mix of moderate- and high-intensity activity.  This combination will burn calories from fat in addition to providing cardiovascular benefits.  A variety of activities can be considered moderate-intensity cardio including:  jogging/walking, running, biking, hiking, use the stair master or elliptical, swimming or dancing. Some studies even suggest up to 60 minutes of moderate-intensity cardio daily for the most effective reduction in stomach fat. Try to get in your cardio exercises in the morning before eating your first meal.  Exercising in this fasted state means your body will be using energy from its storage form — fat.  Try to include any type of cardio exercise in the morning.  Even a quick 20 – 30 minute walk can help your body use its excess fat stores for energy. Getting up earlier in the morning may be difficult.  Make it a priority and after a few weeks your body and mind will get used to getting up earlier. Make sure you go to bed earlier as well.  It's important to get adequate rest, so you may need to move up your bed time if you're planning on an AM workout. Although cardio is responsible for burning and reducing overall body fat, adding in some light strength training can help tone your stomach.  Include a variety of core strengthening and toning exercises.  When you've reduced the amount of stomach fat, toning your abdominal muscles will give you a more defined look. Try toning exercises like:  crunches, planks, bicycle crunches, or v-sits. Toning exercises will help strengthen muscles; however, it is not possible to "spot treat" this particular area. It is a myth that you can target where on your body you will lose fat, so doing abdominal exercises won't cause you...

Use a vacuum cleaner for routine cleaning. Rinse the filter for a deeper clean. Hose your filter down. Use the automatic cleaning function.

At birth, a newborn’s skin may appear smooth and slightly puffy. There may also be noticeable swelling. Some amount of puffiness, especially on an infant's head or eyes (called edema) is not uncommon and will go away. However, let your physician know if you notice increased swelling after birth, especially in a particular area, such as the newborn’s feet or hands. 24-36 hours after birth, a newborn’s skin may still be pinkish, but it may also begin to look flaky. There may be some skin peeling (most common in the hands and feet); normally, it will go away without issue. Your infant’s skin may still turn reddish when he or she cries, and turn slightly bluish or spotted if he or she becomes cold. A newborn’s skin may be covered in vernix caseosa, a white, cheesy substance. This may be present only at skin folds, such as on the legs. This protects the infant’s skin from amniotic fluid when in the womb, and will wash off during his or her first bath. Since the vernix caseosa washes away, you may not notice it for very long, if at all. ” Mild acne may develop in the first few weeks of an infant’s life. This is caused by the mother’s hormones that were passed to infant. The condition is harmless, and will clear on its own. Many infants will show “cradle cap” (Seborrheic dermatitis) at some point. The skin on top of the infant’s head will appear dry, flaky, and perhaps oily. Cradle cap is harmless and it will typically go away by the time an infant is one year old. You can care for cradle cap at home:  Rub the skin of your baby’s head with baby oil, mineral oil, or petroleum jelly an hour before shampooing. This will help to loosen dry and dead skin flakes. Wet the baby’s scalp before shampooing, and brush gently with a soft-bristle brush. This well help to remove cradle cap scales. Wash and rinse your baby’s scalp, then gently dry it with a towel.

TL;DR in English: Watch for swelling. Expect some peeling and flaking. Look for a natural coating on the skin. Expect some “baby acne. Care for “cradle cap,” if it appears.

Just pop the filter out or unclip it (depending on the make and model of your air conditioner) and use the tube extension on your vacuum cleaner to suck all the grit and dust out of the filter.  Replace the filter when you’ve finished cleaning it.  If you’ve taken good care of your air conditioner’s filter, you might not see a visible change in the filter when cleaning it.  Rest assured, it is getting clean. On the other hand, you might not be able to get all the dust and grit out of the filter.  Just use the vacuum to suck up as much as you can.  This method is best for giving your filter its regular cleaning. If, after you’ve vacuumed your filter, it still has a good deal of particulate attached, try washing it.  To get started, remove your air conditioner filter.  Mix one part vinegar and one part water.  For instance, you might mix five cups of water and five cups of vinegar.  Pour the mixture in a tub or a wide sink that can accommodate your filter.  Submerge your filter in the mixture for at least one hour.  If it is exceptionally grimy, leave it in for two hours or more. Drain the water and vinegar solution and dry the filter on a rack.  Replace it when dry. Instead of water and vinegar, you could mix a small amount of detergent or liquid dish soap into a volume of water that will cover your filter when it is submerged. If the weather is nice and your filter is too large to fit in your sink, take your filter outside and lean it against a wall.  Spray your hose on the filter.  Do not use a pressurized hose nozzle or you might risk tearing or damaging the flimsy filter.  You could also hose your filter down in your shower.  Just prop the filter up in your shower and, using your shower’s detachable showerhead, spray the filter’s entire surface, front and back, in a zig-zag motion. After hosing your filter down, allow it to dry, then replace it. For added effect, you could sprinkle a few spoonfuls of baking soda over your filter before spraying it down. Some modern air conditioners might be equipped with a...

In the rules of big two, the three of diamonds is the lowest ranked card, so it must be placed first either by itself or in some combination. The rules of big two revolve around the game’s own ranking of the cards and suits. The gameplay is essentially successive players placing increasingly ranked cards until no longer able.  The namesake of the game comes from it’s ranking of the game’s cards (from high to low): 2, Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10 to 3. The suits are ranked (from high to low): spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. There are four combinations in which cards can be played: single cards, pairs of cards, triples, and five card groups. If the player with the three of diamonds has another three in their hand, or two threes, they might consider playing the card in a double or triple. The advantage to this is that it forces the remaining players to also play a double or triple, potentially damaging their ability to get cards out of their hand.  When playing a pair of cards, they must be of equal rank (ex. two nines or two jacks). Triples work in the same way. Higher suits will determine rank among equal pairs (ex. a nine of spades and of diamonds beats a nine of hearts and of clubs, because the spade is higher). For groups of five cards, there are five different ways to play them, many of the combinations similar to ones in poker. Naturally, five card groups are considered the most valuable because they are the most difficult to match and outrank. The groups are listed here in rank from lowest to highest:  You can play a straight, which is five cards of successive rank using any suits (ex. six of hearts, seven of diamonds, eight of hearts, nine of clubs, and ten of spades). When ranks are identical, the suit of the highest ranked card determines supremacy. Four of a kinds are also possible, and you include any other card to make a combination of five. The four must be of the same rank (ex. all 4 sevens, and a three of spades). Choosing between two four of a kinds, the rank of the four cards decides...

TL;DR in English: Begin the game by playing the three of diamonds. Play the three of diamonds in a pair or triple. Play the three of diamonds in a group of five. Continue play until everybody passes. Begin a new round. Score the remaining players.

Place the gravel and any decorations back into your clean fish bowl before putting clean water in the bowl. Make sure everything is arranged the way it was before so as not to upset the fish by changing their environment. Fill the fish bowl with room temperature water that has been treated or left out overnight to reach room temperature. If you choose to use dechlorinator, be careful not to spill it, as it could leave a chemical smell on your carpet or furniture.  Again, you may wish to use a dechlorinator rather than waiting overnight for chlorine levels to neutralize. If this is the case, make sure allow the water temperature to equalize before placing the fish back in the tank.  Be sure to cover the water or put it out of reach if you have pets or children. This will help you ensure the water is not contaminated while it is aging. Scoop your fish from the temporary holding tank using your fishnet or small bowl. Try to move the fish as quickly as possible to avoid stressing the fish. Also, take care not to drop the fish or let them fall, as they can be badly injured if this occurs. Place your fish back into the fish bowl that has been filled with clean water. Gently lower the fish into the water using a net or a bowl. Do not just dump the fish into the bowl. Fish are most likely to experience stress and environmental or temperature related maladies during and immediately after cleaning their tank. So, keep a close eye on your fish after putting them back in their bowl to ensure they are adjusting well to their cleaned environment.

Freeze mashed potatoes in .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties on a baking sheet. Keep scalloped potatoes or potato casserole in the baking dish when freezing.

Clean the bath thoroughly first. Disinfectant and a very good rinse. Repeat this step every single time you bathe with a new piercing. Very hot water will cause your piercing to swell and hurt. If not possible, do everything you can to keep the piercing well clear of the water. Make sure a minimum amount of contact occurs between the piercing and the water. Do not allow any soap, shampoo, conditioner or any other chemicals to get on the piercing. Do not touch, pull, tug, brush against, wash over, scrub around or near the piercing whilst you are in the water. Then immediately rinse the wound out with sea salt water (one pinch in an eggcup of boiled and cooled water is about right) or tea tree oil. Ideally both. The purpose of this is to rinse out any bacteria, or soaps that might have snuck in there, and it is absolutely critically important that you do this as soon as you are out of the water.

TL;DR in English: Do it in your own, clean bath. Be sensible with the temperature of the water. If possible, cover the piercing with a waterproof dressing. Make the bath as quick as possible. Once you get out, pat the area dry very lightly with a clean, soft towel. Clean your piercing thoroughly before you sleep that night using normal procedure.

Use your hands to mold your leftover mashed potatoes into .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties. Place the patties on a baking sheet, then cover it with plastic cling wrap. Put the mashed potatoes into the freezer for about 24 hours. Then, combine the mashed potato patties into a single airtight container. It’s best to eat them within a few weeks, as mashed potatoes don’t freeze well. Cool the dish evenly by putting it in your refrigerator for about 1-2 hours. Cover the food with moisture-resistant parchment paper, then cover it again with a lid or aluminum foil. When you're ready to reheat the dish, you can thaw it or put it directly into the oven while it's still frozen.  These types of potato dishes can be reheated in an oven at 400 °F (204 °C) for 25-30 minutes. If you have one, use a food thermometer to make sure the dish's internal temperature is at least 165 °F (74 °C). If you're making the recipe with the intention of freezing it, stop cooking the dish when it has a light brown color and the potatoes feel almost tender.

Know your community's evacuation routes. Make an emergency kit for your home, work, and vehicle. Have a family communication plan. Take a first aid course Learn some survival skills Look into flood insurance.

You will need some sort of heat-resistant container, such as a mason jar or an old candle holder, to pour your melted wax into. Make sure that the mouth of your container is wide enough for you to reach into and that the container can withstand high temperatures. You can use any candle wax for your candles, such as paraffin, soy, or even old, unscented candles. Cut or break your chosen wax into cubes. Make sure that you have enough to fill your container, plus some extra. Wax shrinks a little when it hardens, and you may find that you will have to add a little extra wax into the container during the cooling process. Fill your double boiler with water and place it on the stove, then fill the smaller chamber with wax. Turn on the stove and wait until the wax melts. It will look mostly clear.  If you do not have a double boiler, you can make your own by filling a large pot part-way with water and placing a smaller, heat-resistant container, such as a glass measuring cup, inside it. The smaller container should be at least as tall as the larger pot; it should not be submerged in the water. Place the candle wax into the smaller container, and set the large pot onto the stove. If you want to add some color to your candle, you can add in some crayons or wax dye. Wax dye usually comes in blocks, and you can find it online or in the candle-making section of an arts and crafts store. If you choose to add some color, be sure to stir your wax to blend it all in. Use about ½ teaspoon or 10 drops of oil per one pound of wax. You can use more essential oil if you'd like a more potent candle, or less essential oil if you'd prefer a less potent one. You can find citronella essential oil online or in the essential oil section of a health food store. Once you have added the oil, stir the wax to mix it all together.  Be sure to use essential oil, as a synthetic citronella oil (or citronella scent) will not be as effective at keeping the bugs away.  You can also add other candle-making scents to help compliment the citronella....

TL;DR in English: Find a clean, glass jar with a wide opening. Purchase some candle wax and cut it into small cubes. Heat the candle wax in a double boiler. Add citronella essential oil to your melted wax. Purchase a pre-waxed candle wick and cut it. Insert and attach the candle wick. Secure the candle wick. Pour the wax into the jars. Wait until your candle has cooled. Trim your wick.

If you live in a coastal community, you probably have an evacuation route, even if you're not aware of it or if it's not often talked about. In short, it'll be the quickest way to reach high ground. You want to be, ideally, 2 miles (3.2 km) away from shore and at least 100 feet (30.5 m) above sea level.  If you are a tourist, ask your hotel or various approachable locals about policy, if you're concerned. Familiarize yourself with the terrain so if the worst were to happen, you could fend for yourself. Even though you'll probably be following everyone else, know that they're heading for high ground, too, and you should do the same. And those evacuation routes won't really do you much good if you don't practice them. So round up the kids and the family dog and...GO. How long does it take to reach your safety spot? Are there any potential issues that could crop up? Do you know how to reach your back-up route in the event one is impassable or jammed? You want one available for wherever you may be when the time comes. Worst-case scenario is you get caught somewhere for a few days before evacuations start happening, so you want 72 hours worth of goods. Put in things like a roll of toilet paper, first aid equipment, energy bars, and water. Here's a list to get you started:  Water (A large amount to last for about a week) A prepaid sim card in a phone (Be sure the phone has a long lasting battery) Canned or packaged foods (A large amount to last for about a week) Flashlight (hand cranked flashlights are a good idea) Radio (tuned to NOAA station that gives the "all clear" signal) Sanitary items such as toilet paper, moist towelettes, garbage bags, zip ties, hand sanitizer. First aid equipment (band-aids, gauze pads, etc.) Whistle Map Tools (wrench to turn off utilities, manual can opener) Duct tape Spare clothes Anything for individuals with specific needs (infants, elderly, etc.) If you're at work, the kids are at school, and your spouse is at home, all the group planning in the world won't do you any good.

Pay attention to how long your laryngitis lasts. Be aware of dangerous symptoms, and seek medical attention immediately. Be alert to sudden changes in your child's condition. Notice how frequently you have laryngitis.

No person is ever perfect, but as the U.S. author John Steinbeck once said “Now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.” Remind yourself that even Olympic gold medalists get points off on their scores (but still win).  That Albert Einstein made (but learned from) his mistakes and imperfect solutions.  Never let “perfect” undermine your self-esteem and become the enemy of all the excellent, worthwhile (but unfortunately imperfect) things you are capable of.  Striving for absolute “perfection” can be counterproductive, because it can diminish an accomplishment or task completion just because it is not flawless success.   Perfectionism is also closely linked to depression, troubled relationships, and decreased life satisfaction. If you are unsure whether something you wish to do will upset your parents, ask first. If you are hesitant to ask, it is probably a good sign that it will upset your parents.  When asking, always ensure you've thought through the possible outcomes of what you are asking to do and anticipate the concerns your parents will have. Don't get upset.  Although your parents may seem resistant to your suggestion, remember to stay cool-headed and present facts and examples that illustrate why you should do something and why you are capable of handling any outcomes. Especially if you are still living at home, if your parents say "no," always honor their wishes, even if it is not what you would prefer. When you have promised parents you will do something, but wait until you have to be told again (and again), it can create negative tensions.  Set expectations early.  Say “Mom, I have [x, y and z] to finish before I’ll have time, but as soon as I am free, I will take care of this,” then complete all tasks before having to be asked additional times. Anticipate needs and fill them. Do you know what days garbage runs on? Are guest expected over the weekend?  Take out the garbage, clean your room and other rooms in the house, all without being asked. You may not initially agree with what your...

If you are still experiencing laryngitis symptoms after two weeks, it's best to seek medical attention. Your doctor will be able to determine if you are dealing with a severe case of laryngitis or a different condition. If you are dealing with any of the symptoms below, you should go see a doctor or medical professional as soon as possible:  Increasing pain Persistent fever Difficulty breathing Trouble swallowing Coughing up blood Difficulty managing your own saliva If you suspect your child has laryngitis, and he experiences any of the symptoms listed below, do not hesitate to seek medical attention. He might have a more serious respiratory condition such as croup.  Increased drooling Trouble swallowing or breathing Fever higher than 103°F (39.4°C) Muffled speech (also known as a hot potato voice) When he inhales, he makes a high-pitched breathing sound If you frequently suffer from laryngitis, it is advisable to talk with your doctor about this situation so she can determine the underlying cause and recommend a treatment plan. Chronic episodes of laryngitis might be a result of one of these medical conditions:  Sinus or allergy problems Bacterial or fungal infection Acid reflux, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Cancer Vocal chord paralysis due to an injury, tumor, or stroke
