Clean your ears out with hydrogen peroxide. Apply ear drying drops to your ears. Blow your ear with a hairdryer. Dry your outer ears with a towel after swimming and showering. Avoid using cotton swabs or tissues in your ears.

Starting your baby on solid foods can be intimidating.  To help make sure you choose the right cereal and start your child with solid foods at the appropriate time, talk to your pediatrician.  Most pediatricians will recommend that your child (as long as they are developing normally) begins solid foods anywhere from four to six months. Talk to your pediatrician about what type of grain they think is the most appropriate for your child.  Although rice cereal is the most common, your physician may suggest something different. Also ask your pediatrician how often to start feeding your child cereals.  It's typically recommended to try two times a day when your baby isn't overly cranky or sleepy. Rice cereals are the most common and easily found infant cereals.  You will see white rice cereal and brown rice cereal options available.  Rice cereal is typically the most commonly recommended infant cereal to start with because it is exceedingly rare for an infant to be allergic to rice.  If you do choose to start with rice cereal, choose a product that is fortified with iron. Also, choose a cereal that is made from brown rice.  White rice is heavily processed and many of the nutrients have been stripped from the grain. You may be surprised and concerned that there is arsenic in rice. But arsenic is found in the Earth’s crust, and present in water and soil.  Crops absorb arsenic as they grow, that’s how it gets into our foods.The FDA has issued a limit of 100 parts per billion for arsenic in infant rice cereal.  Rice cereal is a good source of nutrients for your baby, but it should not be the only one.  Be sure to provide a variety of infant cereals, like oat, barley and multigrain. Another type of infant cereal that's widely available is multigrain cereal.  This will introduce more than one type of grain to your infant and may provide other sources of nutrients.  Whole grain cereals may include rice, oats, wheat, barley and even flax.  If it's 100% whole grain, these foods are unrefined and still contain most of their...

TL;DR in English: Talk to your pediatrician. Give your baby rice cereal. Try out multigrain cereals. Make whole wheat cereal. Give your baby oat cereal.

Fill half of an ear dropper with hydrogen peroxide. Turn your head so that the affected ear is on top. Drop the hydrogen peroxide into the ear. Once the crackling noise stops (usually within 5 minutes), tilt your head so that your affected ear faces down. Tug on the earlobe to help the ear drain. You can buy these over-the-counter at pharmacies and grocery stores. The solution will usually come with an ear dropper, but they are typically available for purchase at pharmacies if not. Alternatively, you can make your own drying drops with equal parts white vinegar and isopropyl alcohol. Turn the hairdryer onto its lowest heat and fan setting. Set the blow-dryer about 6 inches (15 cm) from your ear. Let the cool air blow into your ear.  The air can help dry up some of the fluid that is caught in the ear. Don’t put the towel inside of your ear. Just wipe off the water on the outside to prevent more fluid from building up in your ears. These can irritate and scratch your ears, increasing your chances of getting an infection. Instead, if you can’t dislodge the water on your own, see a doctor for help.

Carry a bottle of water with you and sip it throughout the day to keep your mouth moistened. Sports drinks or even milk can work as well, but avoid anything that contains sugar or caffeine.  Try eating yogurt and cream because they create a protective layer over the mucosa that can fight dryness. If your mouth is driest after waking up, run a humidifier while you sleep. This keeps the air moist. You could also drink a glass of water or tea before going to bed Chewing and sucking both stimulate saliva production. Use sugarless gum or candy, since people with dry mouth are at high risk of developing cavities.  One clinical trial showed that green tea lozenges may be more effective than other hard lozenges. It's not certain which component of green tea causes this effect, so you may wish to try several brands. If you don't have either of these at home, try sucking on a piece of hard, uncooked pasta. There are several types of foods that can cause pain or mouth infections if you have dry mouth. Reduce these to a minimum, and only eat them with plenty of water:  Acidic foods such as tomatoes or citrus juice. These are especially bad, as they promote tooth decay as well as causing pain. Some people also have an increased saliva flow when they taste or see lemons. Salty and spicy foods, which can cause pain. Toast, crackers, and other dry foods should only be eaten when moistened with sauce or soup. Sugar has a high risk of causing tooth decay. Minimize your intake, and don't brush teeth right away after eating sugary foods. The sugar carries on attacking your teeth for 40 mins-1 hour. If you brush your teeth immediately after eating any meal you are brushing away thin layers of the enamel, leading to highly sensitive teeth. This means when you drink freezing cold water or eat freezing cold food or if you eat sugary sweets, your teeth will hurt. Only brush teeth 40 mins to 1 hour after your meals. There are many types of artificial saliva, including over-the-counter and prescription products. The extra moisture can...

TL;DR in English: Stay hydrated. Chew or suck sugarless candy. Avoid certain foods. Try artificial saliva. Ask for prescription medication.

Active reading is an important first step to having good study skills. Active reading is a way to read that makes you interact with the text. In active reading, you don’t just hear the words in your mind as you go and then they disappear. Active reading is crucial to understanding new material when there is reading assigned. The following steps outline how to teach active reading. Students should have a mission when they read. If you are the teacher, tell them what to look for. If you aren’t the teacher, tell them to find out from the teacher what they’re supposed to be looking for or figuring out while reading.  For older students, the purpose may be left up to them to determine. Have them determine what the purpose for the reading is before they begin. Older students may base their purpose for reading around assessments, such as a paper they have to write or a test. Direct them to look at upcoming assessments to see if they can determine a focused purpose for reading. If they are allowed to (some public schools don’t allow writing in the textbooks), students should highlight or circle and underline phrases and words that stand out to them and write questions and notes in the margins. A way for students to be able to mark the text without marking up public textbooks are to make photocopies of stories or sections of the text. This is similar to the strategy in the previewing step. Teach students to make connections between the text and themselves (This reminds me of the time that I…), or the text and another text (This reminds me of this other book…), or between the text and the world (This sounds like what happens when…). Making connections is extremely important for long-term remembering of what is read in a text. After reading, students should ask themselves, what’s the gist of what I read? Have them jot down notes of the most important parts of what they read, such as the main idea and some supporting details.

Your nails can heal themselves if they get damaged, but it will take a few days. To give them time to heal, do not apply any nail polish or other press-on nails for at least a few days. Try using a few drops of cuticle oil to give your nails a natural shine while you let them heal. Your nails may be brittle after you remove the press-on nails, so cutting your nails short may help to prevent them from breaking or chipping. Use a nail clipper to trim your nails down so that they are somewhat short. You can also use a nail file to smooth out jagged edges if your nails are already short.

TL;DR in English: Go polish and press-on free for a few days. Cut your nails short to prevent breakage.

Bake your favorite basic cookies and allow them to cool. Flip over half the cookies so the tops are facing down and the bottoms up. Cover the cookie bottoms with your favorite filling, then place another cookie on top with the top facing up. Popular filling choices include:  A one-inch layer of ice cream A thin layer of icing A thin layer of peanut butter and jam Whipped cream Fruit compote Take a fresh batch of cookie dough and press it into the bottom of a greased nine-inch (23 cm) pie plate. In a 350 F (176.7 C) oven, bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the dough becomes golden brown. Allow to cool. When the cookie base has cooled, add enough of your favorite ice cream to fill the rest of the pie dish. Pack the ice cream down. Cut into slices and serve as is, or top with whipped cream or chocolate sauce. Whip up a fresh batch of cookie dough. Grease a large, round baking sheet, and spread the dough out evenly over the baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until golden brown. Allow to cool.  Spread a thin layer of your favorite dessert sauce over top of the cookie, such as chocolate hazelnut spread, caramel sauce, nut butter, or marshmallow spread. Top that with your favorite candy toppings, such as chocolate chips, sprinkles, nuts, marshmallows, coconut shreds, and other candies.  Cut into pizza slices and serve.

Make your T-shirts as compact as possible. Fold polo shirts lengthwise to store them. Fold tank tops into a small square. Keep your dress wrinkle-free by folding it into a rectangle. Tuck in the sleeves when folding a long-sleeve shirt. Fold sweaters in half after tucking in the sleeves.

Sun exposure can temporarily brighten skin by giving you a tan, but in the long term it is extremely damaging. Letting your skin burn or get tan all summer long can lead to wrinkles, spots, and the possibility of skin cancer.  Apply sunscreen to your face before you leave the house, even during the winter. Use sunscreen on your neck, shoulders, chest, arms, and everywhere else that tends to get more exposure. When you're wearing shorts or going to the beach, make sure you cover your legs, too. Leaving makeup on your face overnight is hard on your skin, because you're allowing chemicals to seep in all night. By morning your skin has completely absorbed the makeup, and it's probably the worse for wear. Use makeup remover and rinse off the traces with cool or lukewarm water every night before you go to bed.  Don't scrub makeup off your face, since this can cause it to get irritated and damage the skin. Use a good makeup remover and dab it with a towel instead. Try this trick for removing eye makeup: dab a cotton swab soaked in makeup remover on your eyelashes and around your eyes. The makeup will wipe right off. Skin toughens in response to exposure to chemicals, extreme temperatures, and abrasive materials. Keep your skin soft and sensitive by taking these precautions:  Wear gloves during the winter to keep your hands from getting chapped. Protect the rest of your body with appropriately warm clothing. Wear gloves when you're cleaning with strong chemicals. Protect yourself from callouses by using knee pads, thick work clothes, and the proper safety equipment when you're working under harsh conditions.

TL;DR in English: Use sunscreen every day. Don't wear makeup to bed. Protect your skin from harsh elements.

Place your garment facedown, and bring the left half of the T-shirt to the center. Flip the short sleeve so that it faces the outer edge of the shirt. Repeat this with the right half of the garment before tucking the curved neckline into the shirt to create a rectangular shape. Fold the shirt once more to get it ready for storage.  Stick to simple folds. While complex folds might be able to save you a little more space, they are more time-consuming to do and can make it hard to distinguish your shirts from one another.  Once you’ve folded your shirt, you can keep it upright in your dresser or wardrobe drawer. This type of folding also comes handy when you want to fold T-shirts for travel since it can help you maximize space in your suitcase. If the T-shirt is on the larger side, consider folding it in thirds instead of halves. Place the shirt facedown on a flat surface and check that the shirt is completely buttoned before continuing. Tuck the sleeves into the center of the back, and fold the shirt in half so that the shoulders are touching. Complete the fold by bringing the bottom hem of the shirt to meet the collar. This method also works for dress shirts, or any shirt with buttons. Set the tank top facedown on a flat surface before folding it in half lengthwise, making the garment look like a narrow rectangle. Next, fold the tank top in half again so that it forms a square. Store the tank top in a dresser, or in any place where it will fit. If your tank top has thinner straps, tuck them beneath the shirt. Set your dress on a flat, smooth surface and brush out any obvious wrinkles from the garment. Fold the dress in half lengthwise and tuck a third of the skirt into the dress, making the garment look like a rectangle. Repeat this process on the opposite side of the skirt before folding it in half or in thirds.  Smaller dresses can be folded in half, while larger dresses should be folded in thirds. If your dress is especially fancy, consider hanging it up instead of folding it. Set your shirt facedown on a...

Learn Italian pronunciation. Learn the following Italian words that relate to Italian grammar forms: Be aware that you need to avoid using the second person singular.

Safety is obviously important when dealing with fire, but you’re also dealing with electrical charges and batteries, which contain dangerous ingredients.  Wear gloves. Although there aren’t many safety measures available in prison to make the infamous lighter from “Orange Is the New Black,” you’ll want to take safety precautions and protect your hands. Keep a fire extinguisher and garbage receptacle ready. If you need to dispose of batteries, be sure to recycle them. Some municipalities and states, like California, require batteries to be recycled, and your community might have battery collection procedures. Dispose of the battery immediately if it starts to leak. This could be battery acid, which is dangerous and corrosive. You don’t want a leaky battery.  Plus, you’ll need a charge to generate the flame. Most batteries will work, but a AA alkaline battery is common for this type of lighter and a good size. Use two batteries if possible, or a single 9 volt, because one AA battery might not provide enough power. This type of flame will start quickly and burn out quickly. So, have a flammable source on hand to transfer the fire, if you want to keep the flame going.  Sheets of loose paper, newspaper, or dry leaves will work well here. It is important to transfer the fire and not let the battery itself light on fire, since it could explode. On most batteries, this should be clearly marked. On a AA battery and other cylindrical batteries, the positive (+) end or terminal—known as the cathode—has a small convex bump, while the negative (-) end or terminal—known as the anode—has the inverse: a small concave indent into which the bump can fit.

TL;DR in English: Take safety precautions. Use new batteries. Prepare a transfer source. Find the positive and negative ends of the battery.

When you begin thinking about downsizing, take some time to explore the job market and see what positions are available. This is particularly important to do if you are thinking about changing industries.  Run online searches through job search engines. Talk to people working in the industry you would like to try out. Set up meetings with a job counselor to discuss your options. Once you have an idea of the kind of jobs that are available, begin a more specific job search based on the aspects of your desired job and how much you would like to downsize. While searching, keep in mind things like:  Salary. Hours. Flexibility. Contract type. When you find a job posting that you are interested in, take the time to look at the company. While the job posting may sound intriguing, if the company comes across as inflexible or incompatible with the reasons you are downsizing in the first place, you may consider looking for a job elsewhere. Read the company’s mission statement, history, and any other information you can find about them. If possible, talk with someone who has worked or is working at the company. You might find that you have transferable skills for a number of new positions. If you are not sure if you have the right skills for a specific job, consider looking into short term and temporary contracts in your desired field. These short-term jobs can give you an idea of what it is like to work in that industry and help you to determine if you have the right skills. If you don’t mind moving companies but would like to stay in your current industry, you should consider looking for freelance jobs. Freelancing can give you the freedom to control how much work you take on and how much you charge, which could help reduce stress and time constraints.

TL;DR in English: Start a general job search to get an idea of what positions are available. Tailor your job search to match your specific needs. Research the companies that you think you may apply to. Analyze your skills and your passions. Consider freelancing as an option for downsizing.

Pick up those watercolors. Write a short story. Plan a trip to Mombasa. Have dinner with a family member. Start cracking jokes. Open up. Tell the truth. Whatever it is that you've decided you want to be or do, start being and doing it now.  You may shake your head and come up with excuses such as "no time," "no money," "family responsibilities," etc. Instead of using these as excuses, start planning around the hurdles in your life. You can free up time, find money, and get a break from duties if you make time how to plan and find the courage to ask for these things. Sometimes, the real you is too afraid to face the practicalities because it'd mean facing up to what you've limited yourself by. Start planning what you really want to do and investigating what needs to be done to get you to that point instead of flinging excuses at them, stopping the goals and dreams dead in their tracks. Finding yourself is a journey, not a destination. A lot of it is trial and error. That's the price you pay in return for the satisfaction you receive: More often than not, you hit a bump in the road, and sometimes you fall flat on your face. Be prepared to understand and accept that this is a part of the process, and commit to getting right back up and starting over. It's not going to be easy — it never has been for anybody — but if you learn to see that as a chance to prove how much you want to find yourself, then you'll find fulfillment and security in your pursuit. When you know yourself, most people will respect you more and treat you kindly. Best of all, your light will shine on both you and others, making them (and you) feel even more certain about your sense of self. Mahatma Gandhi once said that "the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others." Being introspective without reaching out to others can cause you to navel-gaze and shut yourself off from others. Service to other people and to the community is the ultimate way to find purpose and a sense of your place in the world. When you see how...

You’re usually able to tell if it’s ripe right when you try to cut into it—the skin and fruit should be super soft and easy to cut if it’s ripe. Another way to tell if the pawpaw is ripe is to press on the skin and see if it gives. If it doesn’t, it hasn’t ripened.  If the skin is tough and you’re not having an easy time trying to slice it open, it’s likely not ripe yet. Pawpaws give off a fruity aroma when they're ripe. Pawpaws can differ in color depending on the specific type, so relying on color to determine if the fruit is ripe isn't your best bet. By putting the pawpaw in the fridge for a few hours before slicing it, the pulp will have an easier time separating from the skin. The seeds should be able to more easily pop out as well. You can store pawpaws in the fridge for about 2 days, making it easy to pull one out whenever you'd like to cut it open. You can either use a sharp knife to try to slice the pawpaw completely apart lengthwise, or you can cut around the skin and then pull it apart like you would an avocado. This leaves you with 2 open halves, ready to be eaten once you remove the seeds.  Use a spoon to scoop out the fruit inside of the skin and eat it. Try to remove the seeds right after you cut it, as they're not edible. The halved fruit creates a great bowl, making eating right out of the skin super easy. The slices can be however thick you’d like, but a thickness of at least 1 centimetre (0.39 in) is recommended because the seeds will be in between the slices. Use a sharp knife to make each slice, and eat the slices after removing the seeds and skin.  You can remove the skin by creating a cut in the skin and then peeling it off all the way around the slice. Slice the pawpaw like you would cut up a banana. Pawpaw seeds are rather large, dark seeds that aren’t edible. Once you cut the pawpaw, you’ll be able to easily see the seeds to remove them. You can do this using a spoon or knife, or, if the fruit is chilled, the seeds are likely to pop out easily. A pawpaw seed is roughly the size of a...

TL;DR in English: Check to make sure the pawpaw is ripe. Chill the fruit beforehand to make cutting and peeling it easier. Slice the fruit in half lengthwise for a quick, tasty treat. Cut the pawpaw crosswise if you'd rather eat it in slices. Remove and discard the seeds. Scoop the pulp out and freeze it, if desired.

Flash fiction can be in any genre you’d like, but popular genres to choose from include romance, thriller, horror, and science fiction. Each genre has its own tropes to help you shape a unique story. Brainstorm the type of narrative you’d like to write and like to read so you can start thinking of ideas.  If you like to write suspenseful stories, try doing a thriller or horror flash fiction piece. For stories that take place in the future or have advanced technology, write science fiction. If you want to focus on a relationship, consider writing romantic flash fiction. The theme is the main moral argument of your story and the message you want to leave with your readers. Some common themes you can use for your flash fiction include love, family, death, and power. Write down what themes you may want to use for your story so you can use them to influence your character and plot. For example, if you want your theme to be love and sacrifice, you may choose to write a story about someone who works all the time just to earn money for someone they care about. Your main character needs to have a motivation and goals in order to progress through your writing. Make their motivations believable so your readers can relate to them easily. Give your protagonist some flaws so they aren’t perfect and have difficulty achieving their goals. Only focus on 1 character since your flash fiction piece needs to be short.  For example, your protagonist’s goal may be to find sunken treasure, but they’re afraid of the ocean. Only give your character 1 goal for your flash fiction or else your piece could get too long or complicated. The antagonist is the main force fighting against your main character. Your antagonist could be another character, something in nature, or even an internal struggle. Make sure your antagonist directly affects your protagonist and the outcome of your story.  For example, your protagonist could be someone stuck in the forest and your antagonist could be a wolf trying to hunt them. Combine an internal struggle...

Make her laugh. Practice good hygiene. Plan special dates. Make her feel special.

Every day, when you wake up, express three things for which you are grateful. Perhaps you have a job you love. Maybe you have a very supportive partner. You might have no illnesses. Always taking a moment to reflect on the things for which you are grateful can be very helpful.  See Express Gratitude for ideas on how to express your gratitude to others. Practice counting your blessings before bedtime by journalling about three positive moments from your day. Contemplate why these moments occurred and what actions of yours did or did not lead to them. Part of living a good life is not getting wrapped up in the daily problems we all face. While it is important to Handle Problems, take a moment to think about what is going well in your world. Perhaps you saw someone escort an elderly lady across the street. Maybe the children at your local school are collecting food for the homeless. Do you still have your health? Are you not penniless? Do you still have loved ones? Though you might be missing some of these things, keeping your problems in a relative position is helpful. One way to be grateful for life and to enjoy life is to engage with nature. Ride your bike along the river or take a walk in the forest. Listen carefully for the different animals’ and insects’ noises. Smell the plants or fresh rain. The world is filled with amazing attributes. Take a moment to let it sink in. Consider taking a reflective, multi-sensory walk in which you do not focus on any technology. Rather, look around you, notice different buildings or trees in your environment. Focus on the smells coming from a bakery or fresh-cut grass. Listen to people's voices or the wind in the trees. Sometimes to appreciate the good things we have in life, we need to take a pause from them. The pause could be a week or a month. When we return to our activities, we are more likely to realize how lucky we are to have them. For example, perhaps you have a pumpkin latte every day in October. Try taking a week off. You will appreciate the drink and its...

Laughing together is a great way to connect with your girlfriend and help her feel more comfortable around you. Find jokes online, or develop your own list. Even better, make some inside jokes that only you two will understand.  Be silly together. Do impressions of celebrities, playact scenes you experienced together that day, or come up with your own silly words and inside jokes. Play harmless practical jokes. If she doesn't like jokes, then ease up on her, or play a joke on someone else together. This includes washing your clothes, brushing your teeth, flossing, and using mouthwash. Wear a pleasant scent of cologne or aftershave.  Remember that wearing too much cologne or perfume can be overpowering and might actually turn your girlfriend off. Keep her feelings in mind. If she tells you that she prefers one scent to another, use that one when you are getting ready. Wash your hair regularly and let her play with it. This can be a fun, flirty way for her to touch you, if you’re both comfortable with that. Make your best effort to look clean and put together. Even if you're going for a grungy look, you can still look clean and stylish. Special dates are great because they are exciting and unexpected. You can show your girlfriend that you really care by planning something you know she’ll enjoy.  Plan a movie-date, a dinner-date, or an activity (such as bowling, ice-skating, cooking classes, or a sports game). If she's really interested in something, try to fit that into the date. Get her friends to help you. Try planning a surprise birthday party with her friends or with her family if you're close to them. Treat your girl like she is the most important person in the world to you. Feeling special and prioritized can often help your girlfriend feel more comfortable and relaxed in your relationships.

While it's more expensive, cotton is generally a solid choice for a shower curtain. Cotton curtains tend to hold up best and are also easiest to wash. They can also give your bathroom a dressier feel.  Cotton absorbs moisture easily. If you get a cotton curtain, make sure you get a quality liner to go with it. Keep in mind that a cotton shower curtain will need to be washed once a month to stay nice and clean. If you don't want to spend a lot of time maintaining a shower curtain, vinyl curtains can be a great option. They can be cleaned and come in a variety of colors, making coordinating them with other bathroom decor simple.  In addition to vinyl, you can try synthetic materials such as nylon or polyester. Because vinyl shower curtains are cheaper, they're great if you plan on switching up your bathroom decor frequently. If you're environmentally conscious, you may want a curtain that reflects these values. Look for curtains made of environmentally friendly materials, such as hemp, if you want a curtain that minimizes use of chemicals and artificial materials. Keep in mind, organic curtains may be more expensive and more difficult to maintain. Microfiber curtains are more moisture-resistant than cotton curtains but softer than things like vinyl and polyester. Such curtains are heavier, so they may work well if your bathroom has heavy water pressure. They are also machine washable, which can cut down on cleaning time. Since microfiber curtains are heavier, you'll want to make sure your curtain rod is sturdy enough to hold one up. Almost all shower curtains will require some kind of curtain liner. Take this into consideration as well. You want to choose a solid liner that will protect your curtains from moisture.  Go for curtains that are clear or light. These allow more light in the shower. Most liners are made out of vinyl. If you're environmentally conscious, it may be difficult to find an alternative. However, if it's important to you, try to seek out non-vinyl liners in a store or online, but keep in...

Maintain adequate space between pommel. Measure saddletree size and shape on Western saddles. Check for tightness on English saddle. Gauge appropriate saddle size. Buy a saddle that fits your horse's build. Observe your horse’s response to the saddle.

As soon as you’ve spilled something, remove the pillowcase and check its care instructions label. Soak it in cool water or wash it according to its care instructions immediately to prevent staining. Using a liquid-proof pillowcase or pillow protector will help keep your memory foam pillow clean. Since washing it is not as simple as throwing it in a machine, stain prevention will save you the hassle of more frequent cleanings. With the pillowcase removed, blot the spill area with dry cloths or paper towels. Try to soak up as much of the spilled liquid as possible. Use blotting motions instead of hard scrubbing or rubbing. Less gentle motions can damage the pillow’s foam structure. Once you have soaked up excess liquid, dab the area with a cloth or paper towel moistened with cool water. If you have trouble getting out the spill out, squirt a drop or two of mild, alcohol-free dish soap onto the damp cloth and use it to blot the spill area.  Hot water causes stains to set, so cool water is your best option. Have patience and keep gently blotting instead of scrubbing hard. Use as little moisture as possible to clean the spill, as water can damage memory foam. After cleaning up the spill, blot the area with a dry towel. Avoid wringing out the pillow, or you’ll risk damaging the foam structure. Once you’ve removed as much dampness as possible using the towel, let the pillow air dry completely before replacing the pillowcase.  You can use a blow dryer to quicken the drying process, but be sure it is on a cool setting.  Avoid using a dryer or you’ll risk melting a memory foam pillow.

TL;DR in English: Remove the pillowcase and wash it as directed. Soak up liquid with towels as soon as possible. Dab the spill area with a moist cloth and mild detergent. Blot and air dry the pillow completely.

On both English and western saddles, you’ll need to make sure there is enough space between the arched front portion of the saddle, pommel, and the withers. With someone in the saddle, place three fingers vertically between the saddle and withers. If you can do this comfortably, the saddle fits well. If it’s a tight squeeze or your fingers don’t fit at all, the saddle is too tight. For the English saddle, have a helper move the horse’s foreleg while your fingers remain between the withers and pommel to ensure the saddle isn’t impeding shoulder movement. This is the underlying support that determines the basic shape of the saddle. If you have a very large or very small horse, you may struggle to find a saddletree that fits just right, but checking for it is simple. With a rider in the saddle, place three fingers horizontally between the horses’ shoulder and the saddle on both sides. Just like with the pommel, this is a quick and easy way to gauge whether or not the saddle size and shape fits your horse. Stand at the back of your horse, and look at the saddle without a rider seated. With the horse’s head down, you should be able to see light. If you can’t see light, the saddle is too tight. This light check lets you know your horse’s saddle is snug but not tight. It’s important to make sure you fit in your saddle. The shape and length of the saddle should accommodate you comfortably. Otherwise, you may not want to ride as often. In English saddles you should have four inches of saddle in front and behind your body. Western saddles have four inches in front with your backside rested against the cantle, raised back portion at the back of saddle. You shouldn’t feel pressed against the cantle to achieve the four inches of space in the front of the saddle. Ensure western saddles fit with your saddle pad by trying it on your horse. Western saddles need to have about an inch of padding between saddle and horse. In many cases, you may need to purchase an extended cinch to accommodate the added padding. Saddles are...

We have more facility to remember the dreams which occur when our bodies are in the sleeping stage known as REM, which stands for Rapid Eye Movement. The body is at rest, but the mind is active with dreams. If you don't get enough sleep at night, or your sleep is interrupted a lot, you get less REM sleep, and fewer dreams. Try going to bed every night at the same time, and waking up at the same time every morning, to make sure you're getting the right kind of rest.  Most people need between 7 and 9 hours of sleep every night to achieve the right amount of rest. People who sleep less than six hours have a hard time remembering dreams, because longer, more vivid dreams take place later in the sleeping cycle. Create a restful sleeping environment. Eliminate noises and distractions that might be preventing you from falling into a deeper sleep. Wear earplugs if necessary, and make sure you have heavy curtains that block out light from outside. It’s best if it just has plain paper with no designs or other distractions. Use this pad only for recording your dreams. Before you go to sleep, make sure it is open to the next page on which you can write so you don’t have to search for a blank page when you wake up.  Always put the pen in the same spot so that you don't have to search for that, either. (You can write down where you put your pen or other things before you go to sleep so you can find them later.) An alternative to writing your dreams is to keep a tape recorder near your bed or under your pillow so that you can verbally recount what happened in your dream. If you have to get out of bed to turn it off, you will be more likely to forget what you were dreaming about. Set your alarm to go off after you've gotten an adequate amount of sleep. Try not to use a radio alarm clock, since the ads and chatter on the morning show will be distracting.   If you can wake up without an alarm clock, you won’t have to worry about turning it off.  If possible, try using a gentler way of waking up. Ask someone to wake you gently...

TL;DR in English: Plan to get a good night's sleep. Put a pad and pen or pencil within easy reach of your bed. Keep your alarm close to your bed. Don't eat, drink alcohol or take medication right before bed. Calm your mind and body before bedtime. Make a conscious decision to remember your dreams. Think about a major problem or emotional concern or read right before you fall asleep.

Typically, hair relaxer comes as a cream or paste and there will be chemicals that need to be mixed with it to complete the relaxer chemical process. With your plastic gloves on, mix the product in a plastic bowl as instructed. Use your comb or the opposite end of your applicator brush to get a small section of hair that’s no more than ½ inch (1.3 cm) thick. Using an applicator brush, carefully coat your new growth with the relaxer. Do this over and over until you’ve applied it to every section.  If you’ve never applied relaxer before, you’ll be coating all of your hair. If you have, then you should only be applying it to your roots. Avoid getting the relaxer on your scalp. Don’t apply the relaxer to the parts of your hair that aren’t new growth. You’ll over-process the hair and may cause damage. Your hairline is the area that people will see first when they look at you, so you want to be extra sure that you don’t over-process the relaxer along the hairline. Also wait to apply relaxer to the nape of your neck, because the hair here tends to process more quickly. Over-processing may result in unsightly breakage. After applying your relaxer, go back over all of the hair you applied relaxer to. Use the back of a comb to smooth out the hair to ensure that it straightens. Do not comb the hair. While most relaxers should be left on for 10-15 minutes, different relaxers require waiting different amounts of time. Set a timer for however long the box instructs. Strictly follow the time instruction. Some people leave the relaxer on longer to achieve “bone straight” hair, but it’s typically more attractive to take the product off when you’re supposed to because then your hair will have some body. Also, leaving it on too long can damage your hair.

TL;DR in English: Mix the product in a plastic bowl. Apply the relaxer to the new growth in small sections. Apply relaxer to your nape and hairline last. Smooth the new growth with the back of a comb. Set a timer for 10 or 15 minutes.

If you prefer the bottle to form a curved taco shell shape instead of a flat tray, press the bottle into clay to form a mold. All molds should be protected by kiln wash or glass separator, as described in the kiln setup section. Use clay intended to be fired around 1500ºF (815ºC), or it may melt during firing. Scrub the bottles with hot, soapy water, or leave them in a bucket of hot water and household detergent for a few hours. Scrub off any paper labels and stickers, or scrape them off using a hard plastic object. Alternatively, if you want to save and reattach a paper label, melt the adhesive using a heat gun.  Painted labels will survive the firing process, which makes a great design as long as the bottle remains still during firing. To avoid the chance of fingerprint impressions, wear gloves and clean afterward with isopropyl alcohol. Also called "devit," this product actually prevents devitrification, or the crystallization of glass that causes a cloudy appearance. Not all types of glass are susceptible to devitrification, and cleaning the glass helps a great deal already. Use the spray when you want to be extra careful, especially for blue and amber bottles. If you'd like to hang the flattened bottle afterward, shape a length of wire into a hook and place one end into the neck of the bottle. The bottle will slump closed around the wire, so there's no need to attach it yourself. High temperature wire is best. Most common wires will work, but aluminum will melt and copper and brass can leave flecks on the bottle. Place the bottles or the molds containing bottles onto your kiln shelf, lying on their side. If they are in danger of rolling, prop them up using crushed glass (frit) or small rolls of kiln paper. This will create an impression on the back of the bottle, but that's much better than having a bottle roll to the side and damage your kiln wall. Take extra care to keep bottles with painted labels still.

If your opponent is trying to fight you, grab their wrist with your nondominant hand and their upper shoulder with your dominant hand. If you’re wrestling your opponent, quickly grab your opponent’s shoulders and wrap your fingers around their shoulder blades to orient yourself.  You can perform a choke hold while you’re squared up or standing off-center to your opponent.  Apply firm pressure with your hands after you’ve grabbed them. You will not be able to steady them for long without resistance. The time that it takes to grab and rotate yourself should be less than 2 seconds. You can drag your opponent to the ground to perform this hold or you can do it while the both of you are standing. If you’ve grabbed your opponent’s shoulders, push them with your dominant hand. At the same time, pull with your nondominant hand. This will spin your opponent around so that they’re facing away from you. Wrap your dominant arm around their chest or neck to hold them in place. If you grabbed their arm, pull their wrist towards you and shuffle to the side before sliding your dominant arm around their chest to spin them around.  If you’re smaller or they’re resisting your hold, you can place your inside leg behind them and pivot to move behind them. If you’re actively being attacked and you’ve grabbed their wrist, twist their wrist inwards as you pull them to disarm them. Once you’re behind your opponent, your dominant arm should be wrapped around their chest. Pull your opponent close to you and adjust your dominant forearm so that it’s around their neck. Your opponent will raise their arms to protect their neck. This will give you the opening you need to place your nondominant hand behind their head.  When they reach up to protect their neck, your first instinct may be to reach your free hand out to swat their hands. Do not do this. You will lose your leverage if you don’t place your arm behind their head. If you’re being actively attacked, yank them from side to side while setting your grip up to disorient them and make...

Most Simmental cattle have a white face with a brownish-red body.  Other Simmental cattle will be lighter in color, while some will be all black, and others mostly brown or mostly red.  Some that are otherwise all black or all red will have a white face.  In the U.S., where certain traits have continuously been selected for, Simmental are characterized by a wider range of color patterns. While American Simmental are mostly black, they may actually be any color or color pattern – from all black, to spotted or patchy, to all white. European Simmental are red or yellow with lots of white. All Simmental start life as greyish calves with shades of red and yellow hair. Pigmentation around the eyes, as well as the udder and scrotum, are common, especially in the U.S. Nearly all Simmental cattle will have ears that are the same color as their body. Flechvieh-Simmental cattle will range in color from a light buckskin-yellow to a brownish-red.  They will have a white face that almost always has a border line just before the jawline, and a white underbelly.  Some may have a patch over each eye; others may have one patch over one eye. White will likely show on the flank and elbows, sometimes forming a stripe from behind the elbows or from the flank all the way up to the topline. They will have a lot of white on their belly and legs. The tail of a Simmental-Fleckvieh will usually be all white or white half-way down. Simmental cattle do not have a white stripe down the nape of their necks, nor white dewlaps.  If these are present, the cattle are likely Hereford. Some more modern breeds of Simmental will have less white markings and will be mostly darker brownish-red to black.  If they do have some white, it will likely be lower on the leg.  White faces are common in modern Simmental, though they may have different colored eye patches and less white overall. Some Modern Simmental cattle may still have a recognizable white stripe from the shoulder down to the elbows, or from the top of the loins to the flanks. These will...

Pick a donkey of the right size, sex and temperament. Make sure the donkey has basic training. Keep more than one donkey if you can. Be gentle with your donkey. Let your donkey exercise every day.

To get an accurate estimate for your tattoo, the best thing you can do is schedule a consultation to talk specifically about what you want. Generally, artists will require you to make an appointment in advance for a consultation, so call your intended shop or artist so that you can talk about the tattoo you plan to get. When you go to your consultation, you should have a rough idea of not only the design but also about how big you want your tattoo to be and where you want it placed on your body. Be prepared to talk about things like color palette and shading, too. It can help to bring along pictures or drawings that you are using for inspiration so that your artist can get a better idea of exactly what you want. Many shops' websites have forms you can use to make initial inquiries. Include as complete a description of your tattoo as you can when you fill out the form. If they allow image uploads, include any drawings or photos that you have been using for inspiration. Email estimates will typically not be as accurate as those from consultations, but they can give you a general range of potential prices. Larger pieces are often priced by the hour instead of by the piece. If you plan on getting a larger tattoo, such as a sleeve or full back piece, ask your artist about their hourly rate. Give them an idea of the piece you want so they can give you an estimate of how long it will take.

TL;DR in English: Schedule a consultation with your intended artist. Have an idea for both your tattoo design and placement. Send an email inquiry. Ask your artist about their hourly rate if you are planning on a big piece.

When you're picking out a donkey, it's important to take these factors into consideration. Male and female donkeys have different temperaments, and there are miniature, standard and giant-sized donkeys which are as big as standard horses. Figure out which type is the right fit for your needs before you decide which one to bring home.  If you plan to keep your donkey as a pet, choose a gelding (a castrated male) or a jenny (a female). If you plan to breed your donkey, you'll need a jack (an intact male) and one or more jennies. Don't get a jack if you just want a pet and don't keep a jack with other male donkeys, since they'll fight. If you plan to ride your donkey, make sure it's big enough to handle your weight. A donkey can safely carry 20% of its body weight. Also, just like mule, horse or camel, make sure they are not sick or injured, because this could make it worse If you plan to use your donkey as a guard animal against predators, such as wolves or dogs, choose a standard or giant donkey, not a miniature. It's important that the donkey be larger than the predator. If this is your first time handling a donkey, you'll want to choose one who already knows how to stand and walk on a lead without bolting. You may also want to make sure the donkey can handle being petted all over its body and will allow you to lift its feet without trouble. Donkeys can be a little tricky to train, so unless you're experienced with them, it's a good idea to choose one that is fairly well behaved or find a friend to help you. Donkeys are extremely social creatures and they get sad when they're left all alone in the pasture. Your donkey will be a lot happier with a companion. Two jennies, two geldings or a jenny and a gelding make good companions for each other. Donkeys will bond deeply with their companions for life, and they won't want to go anywhere without each other.   Donkeys can bond with horses but if you ever plan to take the horse somewhere without the donkey, it's not advisable to allow them to create a deep bond....

If you want to be a fair teacher, then you have to make it clear that you respect the opinions of ideas of all of your students. If you only call on the same three students or dismiss the comments of a student who is struggling more than the rest, then you may develop a reputation of not being fair. If you don’t let students who are more shy or more problematic have a turn at speaking, then they’ll be discouraged from participating in your class, because they won’t feel that you’re treating them fairly.  Keep in mind that allowing a diverse range of opinions into your classroom also makes for a better learning experience for all students, even the ones who don’t contribute much. It’s not fair to let only a few of your favorite students express themselves. Practice calling on students who haven’t raised their hands and asking what they think. Though you should proceed with caution with students who are more reserved, setting this standard can make students feel more accountable in the classroom. You may think that you’re fair in the classroom, but when you take a step back, you may see that you don’t react fairly to every student. Ideally, you should be receptive to what every student has to say, pause to wait for an answer from every student, and give positive feedback and encouragement to all of your students. When you go home, ask yourself how you reacted to each student and see if there’s anything you could have done that was more fair. You can even ask another teacher to observe you to give you honest feedback. You may find that you’re spending twice as much time with some students and are neglecting others. Though some students do need more help than others, it’s only fair to give all students some of your time and attention. If you really want to be fair, then you have to learn to see the good in each and every student. You may have a student who does so poorly in the classroom that you may feel like all you can do is offer criticism, but you should work extra hard to find something to praise about that...

Journal about your feelings. Choose a different friend group. Keep busy with healthy activities.

Start your dresser organization project by taking everything out. Go through all the items and figure out what you can get rid of. Look for items that don’t fit, items that have gone out of style, items with stains or other signs of wear, and items that you just don’t wear very often. Items in better condition can be donated but items in poor condition can simply be thrown away.  You might be keeping some items for sentimental purposes, even long after they become unwearable. Try to find another use for items like this, like making a tee-shirt rug or a quilt, so that they aren’t taking up space in your drawers. If it’s a casual or daily item and you haven’t worn it in a year, it’s time for it to go. Formal items can go unworn a bit longer. Now that you’ve limited yourself to the items you want to keep, separate the items by what season they’re appropriate for. You can switch your dresser contents for warm weather and cold weather, storing the off-season items in a plastic bin in a closet or basement until they’re needed.  You can also store off season items in a box under your bed. At the very least, you'll want to put heavy winter items in the lowest drawers. This is better for your dresser. Organize all of your clothes by their function. Generally you will have delicates, pajamas, casual shirts, dress shirts, casual pants, dress pants, heavy sweaters and light sweaters. Pants should really be stored separately, as should sweaters, so try to set aside a drawer just for these items.  Generally, these items can be split very nicely between four drawers. Delicates and pajamas in one drawer, shirts in another, pants in a third, and sweaters and other items in the fourth. Sweaters should be kept separately to help protect them from moths but also to keep them from pilling all over other clothing items. Pants must generally be folded differently from shirts and keeping them separate will prevent wrinkles. Within each of the categories that you've now set aside, you will now want to organize items by how they...

It can be difficult to deal with the feelings that come from peer pressure. You might be good friends with someone, then feel betrayed when they try to pressure you to do something. You might even wonder if the friendship is over or needs to end. Dealing with these emotions can be hard, so use a journal to sort out your feelings and help you cope with the stress.  Your journal should be a safe place to write out your thoughts and feelings. Be honest with yourself as you write. You might want to reflect on your journal entries at times to see how you’ve dealt with things in the past and what was helpful before. Think about your good interactions with them versus your bad interactions. If you feel like they pressure you much more than you’d like or they won’t stop, make some new friends. While it’s hard to say goodbye to friends, it might be harder to keep saying "no" to peer pressure and deal with how it makes you feel.  You can meet people by volunteering or attending karate, dance, or other classes. If you are still in school, audition for a play, try out for sports team, or join a club. Pick something that your current group of friends isn't involved in. Another way to avoid peer pressure is to spend your time doing activities that you really enjoy. Doing activities can help you meet other people with shared interests and help you spend your time doing what you enjoy.  Try different activities until you find one you like. For example, try a sewing or woodworking class, pick up photography, go hiking, or get a bike. See what clubs are available at school, like drama club, math team, and Big Brothers and Big Sisters. You can also join a sport like soccer, track, gymnastics, or volleyball.

Add yogurt and cottage cheese to your diet. Eat non-dairy fermented foods if you are lactose intolerant. Take a probiotic supplement if you do not like pickled foods. Consume drinks high in probiotics.

TL;DR in English: Add yogurt and cottage cheese to your diet. Eat

Write your introductory remarks. Introduce your actors, places, and things. Identify your disputes. Tell your story. Discuss your weaknesses. Provide a conclusion.

Yogurt and cottage cheese contain high amounts of probiotics that can help increase the good bacteria in your gut. Purchase yogurt products that have the label “active cultures” on it. For the best results, choose natural, plain yogurt instead of flavored yogurt.  Flavored yogurt tends to be high in sugar, which can decrease the amount of good bacteria in your gut. Instead, sweeten your yogurt with fruit like bananas, blueberries, strawberries, and peaches. You can even make your own yogurt. Pickled foods are the non-dairy version of fermented food. Like yogurt, pickled foods contain high amounts of probiotics. Add pickled foods to 1 to 2 meals per day to help increase the good bacteria in your gut.  Add foods like pickled cucumbers, garlic, radish, beets, and corn relish to your meals. Sauerkraut, kimchi, natto, tempeh, fermented tofu, and miso are also fermented foods. Another great way to increase the amount of good bacteria in your gut is to take a probiotic supplement. Take the supplement per the instructions on the bottle. Contact your healthcare provider if you are taking other medications, or if you are unsure how often you should take the supplement.  You can purchase probiotic supplements online or from your local health food store. If you have an immune disorder, speak to your healthcare provider before adding probiotics to your diet. Drinks like kefir, whey, kombucha, and apple cider vinegar are all high in probiotics. If you are also eating foods that are high in probiotics, only consume 1 probiotic drink per week. If not, then it is ok to consume more than 1 probiotic drink per week. Though most people can’t “overdose” on probiotics or have too many, cut back if you develop bloating or diarrhea.

Be aggressive here and give the jurors a good impression of your case. Begin with remarks that summarize the case, state your theme, and arouse the interest of the jurors. The first couple of minutes during your opening statement is when all the jurors are likely paying the most attention, so you want to capture them immediately. Consider the following example: "On January 23, 2001, Chris McGuigan walked into Riverdale Hospital through the front door to have a minor operation to remove a growth on her arm. One week later, on January 30, she was carried out of the back door dead. What happened in that short week to turn a routine operation into a life and death struggle, and why it never should have happened, is what this case is all about." In this section you want to first introduce your client, followed by an introduction of other important witnesses. When you introduce your client, you want to make them seem real and likable. At the end of the day, the jury is going to see your client throughout the trial so you want them to relate to and empathize with your client. You should also familiarize the jury with important locations and times that are going to play a big role in the trial. When you introduce these things, you should attempt to make them as real and tangible as possible because you want the jury to stay engaged and believe your story. When you identify the points of contention in your case, you want to tell the jury in plain language what is claimed in the complaint and how the complaint was answered. You want to state the general nature of the disputes the jury will have to resolve while making sure you are not attacking your opponent's case at this stage. This is the body of your opening statement and should tell your story of what happened from your client's point of view. You want this section to be simple and easy to follow because this will be the jury's first impression of the facts. Your focus should be on who did what to whom, what their reasons were for doing it, and what the...

It’s important that you are confident in your ability to handle a horse. Horses can sense if you’re unsure, and might not follow your lead. Before training, make sure that you feel comfortable not only riding a horse, but caring for one.  If you’re not a skilled rider or handler, that’s okay. Take some riding lessons or ask a local stable if they need some help mucking out stalls. The more you’re around horses, the more confident you will feel. If you have a new horse but don’t feel comfortable training it, you can hire a trainer or ask a friend with more experience to help you. Like humans, horses have different temperaments. Before you start training, spend time just being with the horse and observing their nature. You can watch how they react when someone approaches or when you try to touch them.  Slowly allow the horse to get used to your touch by softly touching their face. You can speak softly to them so that they get used to your voice. Some horses are more skittish than others and that’s okay. Just know that you might have to spend more time getting them to trust you. As with any training program, it’s important to know what you want to accomplish. Before you begin your sessions, take some time to write down what you would like to teach your horse to do. You might include things like:  Working on a lunge line. Standing still for the vet or farrier. Tolerating a saddle and bridle. Allowing you to ride them. Loading themselves into a trailer.

TL;DR in English: Make sure are comfortable working with horses. Get to know the horse. Set clear goals and measure your progress.

Some suggest that putting a pink coral bracelet on your child will help protect against the evil eye. Others suggest having the child wear a buckeye has the same effect. In Jewish cultures, parents use a red string to fend off the evil eye. For instance, sometimes it's tied around a crib bar or the stroller handle. In some Hispanic cultures, babies wear an amulet made of black jet. Often, it's shaped as a small fist. You may see it with red and black beads on a gold chain. When someone gives your child a compliment, you can try spitting over your left shoulder three times and then touching wood (or knocking your own head) three times. This method is most often used in Russia. One Sicilian method of protection is to scatter salt on the floor inside the front door or outside the house. The salt (with innumerable grains) is supposed to confuse evil-casters. Another method Sicilians use is the urine method, where everyone in the house pees in a bucket. Then the urine is spilled in front of the house. Many cultures use eye charms to protect against evil eye. You can wear one on a necklace, for instance, or use one as a key chains. In Turkey, these little charms are made out of blue glass, but other cultures make them out of other materials.

Your martini will stay cold longer if the glass is chilled. Place a martini glass in the freezer for 2 to 3 hours or until frost develops on it. If you don’t have a few hours to chill the glass, throwing it in the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes can still help. To make the martini, you’ll need a cocktail mixing glass. Add enough ice to fill it almost completely. If you prefer, you can shake the martini in a cocktail shaker or mason jar to mix the ingredients. Pour 1 part vodka, 1 part white creme de menthe, ¼ part dry vermouth, and ½ part white chocolate liqueur to the mixing glass. Use a long cocktail spoon to mix ingredients until they’re fully combined. Place a cocktail strainer over the chilled martini glass. Pour the martini through it to remove the ice, and enjoy it while it’s still cold.

The acid in lemon juice can be very helpful with softening and removing calluses.  Soak your feet in lemon juice for about 10 minutes before scrubbing your feet with a pumice stone or foot file. While foot razors or shavers can be purchased at drug stores and pharmacies, they are not a good idea to use.  They can easily cut your feet, and these cuts can easily become infected. Your heels tend to be one of the places that build up a lot of calluses.  You can help keep your heels, and the rest of your feet, soft and moisturized by making your own cracked-heel cream at home.  All you need to do is put a spoonful of olive oil in a small bottle and add a few drops of lemon or lavender essential oil.  Shake the bottle until the liquid turns thick and milky and then apply it to your feet, specifically your heels. You can make this cream and store it for future use as long as you remember to shake the bottle before you use it. The best time to moisturizer your feet is right before bed.  And you can moisturize your feet with more than just store-bought moisturizer — you can also use vegetable oil.  Simply apply a layer of vegetable oil to your feet before bed and then put on a pair of thick socks.  Leave the socks on all night while you sleep and then wipe off any excess oil in the morning. Vegetable oil (and other oils) can stain fabrics, including your socks and sheets.  The best socks to use in this situation are wool socks, as the wool absorbs the oil and doesn’t stain.  If you can’t use wool socks (or if they’re too hot) use a pair of old socks instead. Your face, hands and hair can benefit from masks — so can your feet!  It’s easy to make your own at home using 1 tablespoon of Vaseline (or another similar product) and the juice from 1 lemon.  Mix the Vaseline and lemon juice together in a bowl and apply the mixture to your clean feet before bed.  Wear a pair of socks on your feet all night and wipe off the excess Vaseline with a towel in the morning. Dedicate a pair of old socks to this process so you don’t have...

HIIT workouts involve short boosts of cardio activity followed by short rest periods. Warm-up for about 5 minutes by giving your workout about 20 to 30% of your effort. Increase the intensity of your activity so you’re giving about 80 to 90% of your effort for a full minute. Then, drop down to about 50% of your effort for 2 minutes. Alternate between doing 1 minute of high intensity and 2 minutes of moderate-intensity for about 30 minutes before cooling down.  You can easily do a HIIT workout on the treadmill or using just your body weight. Look online or speak with a fitness coach to find some HIIT ideas that you could try. While you don’t need 6-pack abs to have a great beach body, you can work on toning your core with some simple exercises. Do a few minutes of crunches, bicycles, and planks every day and you’ll start to notice the results. Mix things up with leg lifts and flutter kicks while you lay on the ground.  While these are easy to do at home, you can also sign up for a fitness class focused on core strengthening if you prefer a group fitness environment.  Modify some of these exercises to tone your obliques as well. by lifting weights and doing resistance exercises. Pick 3 or 4 exercises that target the muscle groups in your arms that you want to tone, and practice them every day. Try push-ups, pull-ups, or bench dips, which involve positioning your arms behind you on a bench. With your body in a floating seated position, you’ll raise and lower your body up and down to work your triceps. Alternatively, use hand weights to do bicep curls or arm circles. For guys, consider working out your pectorals as well as your arms by doing bench presses. by running or doing with squats and lunges. Every day, do repetitions of regular squats, jump squats, lunges, leg raises, bridges, and other glute-busting exercises to tighten your muscles. If you prefer, use a treadmill or go for a run on an incline to work out that area. Go for a bike ride or take yoga classes to work out your glutes and other leg muscles....

Thicker shoulder straps provide better support, which is essential for women with especially large busts. If you have a smaller bust size, however, thinner straps may provide enough support. The right push-up bra can work beneath a wide variety of tops, ranging from ordinary t-shirts to fancier blouses. Look for one that creates a smooth, natural silhouette, though, or else you may end up looking disproportionate or obviously fake. A bra with light padding can look natural and give your bust a few added inches. Too much padding can look obvious, however and will not flatter your figure well.

TL;DR in English: Stick with thicker straps if you are well-endowed. Give yourself added lift with a push-up bra. Wear padding sparingly.

If you have special plans, think them over ahead of time. For example, are you planning a beach day? If so, don't forget your swimsuit and towel. Are you going out hiking during the fall months? Make sure to bring hiking shoes and a light jacket. If you're going to be consuming alcohol over the weekend, plan ahead. Bring something like ibuprofen in case you end up with a hangover. Also, if your boyfriend's throwing a party or get together, chip in for alcohol. Pack a bottle of wine. You never know when you might need cash. If the two of you want to order a pizza, for example, it's easier to have cash on hand to pay your share. Try breaking down larger bills like twenties into tens, singles, and fives. This can make things easier when splitting up payments.

You may get evicted if you get caught with a dog. If dogs are clearly against the rules in the lease, you have broken the lease by hiding your dog. Your landlord may require you to move fast.  Moving is expensive. In addition to paying for things like moving trucks and gas, you will have to pay to transfer your utilities. You will also have to put down a deposit on a new apartment, and may have to pay first month's rent upfront. Make sure you have a nest egg to front these expenses in the event you have to move fast. The potential financial fallout is one of the reasons it's risky to sneak a dog in an apartment. It's hard to judge your neighbors' attitude. Some of them may not mind you bending the rules, while others may be irritated. Some people may have specifically chosen that apartment complex because they dislike dogs.  Be polite to your neighbors at all times. Keep your dog from jumping on them, barking, or generally disturbing anyone. If you're respectful of your neighbors, they're more likely to like you. This will decrease the likelihood they'll report you to the landlord if they catch you with a dog. A pet deposit usually covers any damage caused by a pet. If your dog, say, chews up the carpet, the $300 you put down for the pet deposit will cover this. However, if you're sneaking your dog in, you won't have a pet despot as a buffer. In the event your dog damages the unit, you will have to pay any damages upfront. It's always best not to break the rules. You could get in a lot of trouble and end up spending a lot of money sneaking in a dog. You may be able to convince a landlord to make an exception to the no pets rule.  You can explain to a potential landlord that you have a dog. If there are any reasons you cannot give the dog up, let him or her know. For example, maybe your dog has special needs and would not do well with another owner. Offer to write up a contract. You could provide a legal document promising to take care of any damages done by your dog. You and your landlord could both agree on...

TL;DR in English: Make sure you have the money to move fast. Watch out for your neighbors. Prepare to pay for damages upfront. Try to negotiate with your landlord instead.

To wear and fasten a French cuff shirt, start by pulling on the shirt and allowing the cuff flaps on each arm to spread over your hands. Don’t try to fasten the cuffs before you put the shirt on. If you do this, you will struggle to get your hands through the cuffs. Now fold back the cuffs on each side, making sure each cuff's buttonholes align. You should be able to do this easily by using the crease in the cuff. Use a pair of cufflinks or knot closures (knotted bundles of silk or rayon cording) to close the cuffs and keep them in place. Pass the cuff links through the holes on each side of the cuff and twist them so they cannot pass back through the buttonholes. Knot closures and cufflinks come in a variety of colours and styles, allowing you to coordinate colours with your tie and shirt or display a special but understated accessory.

One of the easiest ways to increase your productivity is by changing the way you work. By streamlining your workload and focusing on one task at a time, you'll increase your efficiency and, as a result, your productivity at work.  Make short and long-term to-do lists. It will help you stay focused and keep on top of the projects you need to complete for that day, week, and month.  Avoid multitasking. Instead, focus on one task at a time and avoid jumping from one project to another. Multitasking has in fact been proven to reduce, not improve, productivity. Devote your attention to the tasks that need to be completed first. Keep projects with later dates on the back burner, but make incremental progress on tasks that have approaching deadlines. There are many things that can get in the way of a productive workday. Chatty coworkers, distracting activities, and looming concerns about things you need to do after work can all affect your ability to concentrate. By making small changes in how you work, you can block out these distractions and get down to business every day.  Many employees find that it's easier to get work done if you get to work early. Fewer coworkers often means fewer distractions at work.  Try turning off the sound on your computer and phone so you don't get alerts. You should also turn your cellphone off while you're working so you're not tempted to check for texts, missed calls, or social media notifications. Give yourself a 5 to 10 minute break every hour or so to check your email and indulge in the distractions you've been otherwise putting off.  Try stretching and walking around to reduce physical stress from sitting. You may have a hard time focusing on your work if you're feeling hungry or suffering from low blood-sugar levels. Snacking during the day can help you feel better and concentrate more easily, but you should choose healthy snacks to avoid crashing later in the day.

The type of skiing you plan to do will determine how you need to size yourself, as each has slightly different uses and designs.   Traditional or Classic skis are for groomed trails and all skill levels. They come in either normal or compact.   Skate Skis are used for racing/speed skiing, and are usually preferred by intermediate or advanced skiers. They are shorter and thinner than traditional skis.  Off-Track Skis are a hybrid between traditional and skate. They are wider than traditional skis and are used for open, ungroomed territory.  Backcountry skis are shorter and used for longer off-trail explorations. They can be used in many terrains, and are light-weight as possible. Before you get to size and length, make sure you're in the weight range for each set of skis before buying them. In many ways, weight is more important than height for determining the right size skis, as bigger skis distribute more weight than smaller ones.  Some ski companies have even stopped using height to determine ski size, instead using unique weight ranges for each set of skis they produce.  Most skis will have a "recommended weight range" in their specification section. Note, however that this because most skis are sold in centimeters, not inches. If you're 6", you are 72 inches tall, meaning you'd aim for a 210cm set of skis.  Note that this is an approximation -- you should try out a few pairs to see what you prefer whenever possible. The skis should always be 10-15 cm taller than you, never shorter. Compact skis are less varied, and usually come in four sizes, small through extra-large. These sizes change based on the company making them but are usually recommended based on weight ranges. Note, however, that there is some overlap. If you have shorter legs and fall between two ranges, take the smaller skis. If you have long legs, grab the bigger size, but know that this is mostly up to preference:   Under 140 lbs --  Small  135-190lbs --  Medium  175-210lbs --  Large  Over 210 lbs --  Extra Large For racing skis in...

TL;DR in English: Decide what type of cross country skiing you'd like to do, as they are all sized differently. Check the weight specifications of any set of skis before purchasing. Multiply your height in inches by 2.7, then add 15" to get a good approximation of Classic Touring skis. Know that Compact Skis usually come in several pre-made sizes based on weight. Determine your skating ski size by experience level. Aim for back-country skis to be roughly 10cm taller than you when stood up end to end.

Place 1 lb. of green lentils, 1 US-quart (950 ml) of vegetable broth, 4 cups of water, 4 diced celery ribs, 4 diced carrots, 1 diced onion, 3-4 minced garlic cloves, 1 can of diced tomatoes, 1 tsp. of dried oregano, 3 sprigs of fresh thyme, 2 bay leaves, 1 pinch of cayenne pepper, and salt and pepper to taste in a large crock pot. Stir the ingredients well to combine them. Cooking times vary slightly depending on how long it takes the lentils to soften without becoming too soft, and how long it takes for the soup to thicken. When it's ready, turn off the heat. Stir in 1/2 lb. of spinach and let it sit in the pot for a few minutes until it's completely wilted. You may think that you're putting in way too much spinach, but as the spinach wilts, it will get much smaller. Give this soup just a few minutes to cool down and then enjoy it on its own or with a slice of French bread. If you want it to be really creamy, you can even add a teaspoon of sour cream.

A nightly routine will help your baby adapt to going to sleep at the same time every evening, which should help to make it easier to get her to sleep. Create a routine that works for you. It can include things like bath time, comfortable bedtime clothes, a story, a final feeding, a massage, or anything else that helps your baby wind down before bed.  You don’t have to follow every aspect of your routine every single night (nor in the order listed), but make sure that you always do things in the same order according to your routine, so that your baby knows what to expect and recognizes relaxation cues.  Even if she’s too young to understand, tell your baby when it’s bedtime so that she will begin to understand the verbal cues. Don’t give her so much that she’s overly full and uncomfortable, but give her enough so that she’s satisfied and not hungry before bed. Before bed, try a short massage. For 10 to 15 minutes, use slow, long strokes and moderate pressure to massage her arms, legs, hands, feet, back, and tummy. Try a baby-friendly oil, such as sunflower or grapeseed. Gently rub her face, including her forehead, the bridge of her nose, and her head. A warm bath is relaxing for adults and babies, and it’s a nice addition to your nighttime routine. Consider skipping this step if your baby finds baths too exciting or dislikes being in the water. Avoid having toys or other stimulants in the nighttime bath, as the purpose of this bath is quiet, soothing time before sleep. Use a good, thick, nighttime diaper to prevent leaks and unnecessary mid-night changes. Choose soft pajamas made from a breathable fabric, because babies sleep better when they are cool versus warm. Use booties and sleeping sacks instead of blankets, as blankets pose a suffocation risk. Be sure to use a low, quiet, monotone voice that won’t startle or stimulate her. Every baby is different and responds to stimuli differently, and if your baby doesn’t relax during story time, try other soothing methods, such as:  Walking around with her in your...

TL;DR in English: Make a sleep schedule. Feed your baby. Give her a gentle massage. Have bath time. Put on a fresh diaper and pajamas. Read your baby a story.

There are three main types of stress-related hair loss as follows:   Telogen effluvium: With telogen effluvium, stress may send a number of hair follicles into a resting phase, stopping the hair from growing. Several months later, the hair attached to the affected follicles may start to fall out suddenly, in greater volume than normal. This is possibly the most common type of stress-related hair loss.  Alopecia areata: With alopecia areata, the immune system turns on the hair follicles and causes hair to fall out, sometimes in large chunks. There may be several factors causing this type of hair loss, and stress is suspected to be one of them.  Trichotillomania: This condition is very different than the previous two, as it involves a person compulsively pulling out their own hair from their head, their eyebrows, or other areas of their body. A person usually develops this condition as a method of coping with stress, anxiety, depression, loneliness, or boredom. With each type of hair loss, the exact link between the hair loss and stress is somewhat unclear.  While stress will sometimes cause the hair loss directly, other times, the stress makes an existing condition worse. In some cases, the hair loss will cause the stress, rather than the other way around. Although most instances of hair loss will not require any significant medical attention, in some cases the hair loss is not the result of stress (as you might believe), but is in fact a symptom of a more serious underlying issue. Therefore, it important that you see your doctor rather than self-diagnosing. Some of the more serious conditions which can lead to hair loss include hypothyroidism, autoimmune diseases such as lupus and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). With hypothyroidism and PCOS there are treatment options available which can help hair to grow back. However, with autoimmune related hair loss, the loss is often permanent. If hair loss is indeed caused by stress, the major focus of treatment should be on minimizing or eliminating that stress. ...

Most engine cylinders fall in the middle of that range, usually around 125 PSI. However, the exact rating could vary due to a lot of factors, like the vehicle you have, the type of engine you’re testing, and its overall condition. If you see a result that looks out of the ordinary, figure out what engine cylinder it corresponds to.  For diesel engines, the optimal PSI is between 275 and 400. Low individual readings indicate cylinder-specific problems like worn-out piston rings. The difference between the highest and lowest cylinder rating should be no more than 15 to 20 PSI. Big pressure differences are a sure sign of engine problems. Note which cylinder has the low reading to uncover the source of the problem. You may also see multiple cylinders with low readings, which could alert you to more serious issues. For example, a series of low readings could indicate that the valves between cylinders have worn out. It could also be a sign of overall engine failure. Pour about 1 teaspoon (4.9 mL) of fresh engine oil directly into the open cylinder. Then, hook the pressure gauge and hose adapter to it again. Repeat the test by turning over the ignition a few times. When you’re done, check the readout again to see how it has changed. The PSI typically rises when you do a wet test instead of a dry one. The change can help you determine what is wrong with the cylinder. If the test worked, a large change could mean the piston rings have worn out. The engine is vital to your vehicle, so don’t ignore poor readouts from the compression test. Identifying and fixing engine problems can be very tough to do on your own. If you need help, get the car to a qualified mechanic as soon as possible.  If the low reading is from a single cylinder, check it for worn-out piston rings. If the test results were both the same, the cylinder could have a bad valve. If you notice 2 nearby pistons with low PSI readings, you most likely have a blown head gasket to replace. The gasket is between the 2 cylinders. Low compression in all cylinders...
