Have a large capacity HDD and RAM. Also, realize that all of the information on the drive that your current operating system is installed on (probably your C: drive) will be destroyed during this process. If there's anything you want to keep, you should back up the drive to keep files. To install:  Boot from the Windows DVD or USB device. Wait for Windows Installation files to load. Wait for Windows Setup to finish loading. Choose your language and other preferences. Choose appropriate action and wait for Windows setup to begin. Accept the Windows license terms. Choose the type of Windows installation to complete. While partitioning the drive for installation, choose about 70GB of HDD (Win 10), or the appropriate size for the type of Windows OS you are about to install. Divide the rest into 3 partitions.  One consideration is how much you'll game. If you are not an avid gamer or just a casual gamer, you can just divide the rest of HDD after 70GB for Windows in 3 equal parts. However, if you'll play a lot of games, you might want 600 GB or so for that alone; this is because games today take up anywhere between 20GB to 70GB for a single game. 70 to 100 GB for Windows (essential). Name one partition Games, one Programs, and one Others. If you are a Gamer like me keep 600 GB drive partition for games and name it Games. Wait while Windows is installed. Wait for Windows setup to complete. Wait for Windows to prepare your PC for first use. Wait for Windows to check your PC's video performance. Choose a username, computer name and password. Enter your product key. This was given to you at the time of purchase. Choose time, date, and zone. Congrats you are finished with installation!

TL;DR in English: Make sure you have a good set of hardware to meet minimum requirements. Choose your partition size. Finish installation: Wait for Windows to start.

Silicone or rubber menstrual cups are reusable, flexible, bell-shaped devices that collect your menstrual flow. The cup should not leak if inserted properly and is one of the best alternatives to a tampon if you want to go swimming. Insert the cup before swimming, and leave it in until you can change out of your swimsuit into your regular clothing and switch to another method of period protection. While they can be expensive compared to tampons or reusable cups, disposable menstrual cups are flexible, easy to insert, and work well for protection while swimming. Just as you would with a reusable cup, insert the cup before swimming, and leave it in until you can change out of your swimsuit into your regular clothing and switch to another method of period protection.  Like reusable cups, disposable cups can be messy to insert and remove and require a learning curve to master placing them correctly in the vagina. Check out  this helpful wikiHow page to learn the process of inserting and removing a disposable menstrual cup. If you avoid tampons because you are concerned about the chemicals used in their production, a natural sea sponge might be a good solution for you. Sea sponge tampons are harvested from the ocean and contain no chemicals, and they are also reusable.

TL;DR in English: Try a reusable menstrual cup. Consider a disposable menstrual cup. Consider a sea sponge.

Depending on the band's needs, you'll probably have to incorporate facings, turns, salutes, and bows while conducting the band. These can be relatively straightforward and simple movements or you can make them as elaborate and complicated as you like.  Practice your style in front of a large mirror. Remember that you'll be raised up on the field and visible to the audience. Make sure your movements are comfortable and easy to execute while wearing your uniform. Developing a style can personalize your role as drum major, it's not a vital part of conducting the band. Again, these can be simple, clean movements or elaborate emphatic gestures. Consider what's easiest for your band to understand and follow. You should make your gestures large enough for the band to see. For this reason, you should keep your fingers together, not spread apart. This avoids confusion or misdirection. Try conducting other songs in your time signature to get use to how it feels. When you are completely comfortable with one time signature, practice several songs in another more challenging signature. You can also ask your director for any variations or pieces to practice. To conduct  in counts of two, bring your hands down to hit a focal point, then bring them back up. While this may seem like the simplest time signature to conduct, you should avoid bringing your hands straight up. Instead, bring both of your hands down, then sweep your hands to the side while bringing them back up on the second count. Regardless of what time signature you're conducting, keep your arms at a 45 degree angle with your palms slightly raised at about a 45 degree angle. You should practice choosing and hitting a focal point that will be the basis for your conducting patterns. When starting out, you might want to use a physical focal point, such as music stands set at waist level. This will allow you to become comfortable with hitting the same point when conducting. For conducting three, bring your hands down, then out to the sides, and back up. Specifically,...

If you're using propane, lay the steak on the grate so that it is right above the flames. Once you've set it down, try not to move it much. If you want nice charred grill lines you'll need to leave the steak place. If you want nice charred grill lines you'll need to leave

Once the grill is heated up, slap the meat directly above the heat source. Cook each side of the steak for 3-7 minutes, depending on the desired doneness and how thick the steak is. Learn the "palm test" to check your steaks internal temperature without cutting into it. Let the steaks finish cooking on indirect heat if the outside is done but the center needs some time. Let the steak sit for at least 5-10 minutes before serving.

Are you hosting a birthday-sleepover? A Halloween one? A summer-themed one? A Christmas-themed one? Or is it just for fun, with no purpose but to cure you and your friends' boredom? Make sure your guests know what they're coming to!   Include the address, too. For example, "Please come to my house at 100 Chocolate Cake street". This includes information such as: What to bring, what you will be eating at the party, and the activities/games that will be played. If your parents are bringing everyone home or picking everyone up before or after the party, make sure to include that. RSVP is a French phrase, which stands for "réspondez, s'il vous plaît." In English, that just means "Reply Please." Your RSVP could be your cellphone number, your home number, or your email address. It is advisable to set a date to RSVP before. For example, "RSVP Before October 12th."

TL;DR in English: Be sure to explain what kind of sleepover it is. Include your name somewhere on the invitation. Add the date and time so that people know when to come. Write down the destination that your sleepover will be held in (most likely your own home). Don't forget to insert any special information in the invitation. Tell your guests how to RSVP.

If you're using propane, lay the steak on the grate so that it is right above the flames. Once you've set it down, try not to move it much. If you want nice charred grill lines you'll need to leave the steak place. If you want the classic criss-cross grill lines, turn the steak 45-degrees with a pair of tongs halfway through cooking. For a thinner steak, flip around the low end of the following times. For a thicker steak, turn at the higher end. If the steak is pink when you turn it then the grill is not hot enough -- raise the heat and leave it flipped over.   Rare: grilled for roughly 3 minutes a side (raise the heat 25-50 degrees before beginning)   Medium rare: grilled for roughly 5 minutes a side.  Medium steaks: grilled for roughly 7 minutes a side.  Well done steaks: grilled for 10 minutes each side, then removed to indirect heat to finish cooking. You shouldn't cut a steak until 4-5 minutes after it comes off the heat, as the juices inside re-absorb in the meat as it cools, leading to a juicier cut. So how do you test the insides? The trick is literally in the palm of your hand.  Hold your hand open, then touch the tip of your thumb to the tip of your index finger. With your other hand, touch the fleshy part of your palm under your thumb -- this feels just like a medium rare steak. Each finger combination mimics a certain cook temperature:   Rare: Don't touch any fingers -- it feels just like the fleshy part under your thumb. (Internal Temp: 130-135°F)  Medium Rare: Touch your index finger to your thumb. (Internal Temp: 130-135°F)  Medium: Touch your middle finger to your thumb. (Internal Temp: 140°F)  Medium Well: Touch your ring finger to your thumb. (Internal Temp: 155°F)  Well Done: Touch your pinky to your thumb. (Internal Temp: 165°F°) Move the steaks away from the flame, burner, or hot coals. If you have a higher rack on your grill, place the meat up here. Cover the grill and let the heat slowly cook the steak without allowing the outsides to burn.  You shouldn't have to leave the steak for...

Cut a piece of tissue paper into a 24 by 14 inch (60.96 by 35.56 centimeters) rectangle. Fold in half so that the narrower end of the rectangle has the fold. Draw a horizontal line 1½ inches (3.81 centimeters) down from the fold. Draw a series of vertical lines, all the way up to your guideline. Cut along the cutting lines up towards the horizontal guideline. Unfold the rectangle. Start rolling the rectangle, from left to right. Twist the rolled up tissue paper tightly around the middle. Fold the rolled up tissue paper in half. Wrap some tape around the base of the loop to hold the tassel together. String the tassel onto a long piece of string.

While marching in formation, it is important that you maintain the proper distance from the person marching in front of you. This is to ensure that everyone in formation keeps step and does not bump into anyone else. The proper distance between individuals while marching is one arm's length plus an additional six inches (approximately 36 to 40 inches total). Squads typically form in a linear formation. A squad may re-form in a column if each member in formation can identify his precise position, but this usually only occurs when equipment from each individual is left on the ground where he was in formation.  The squad leader will stand in the Position of Attention and issue the command "Fall In." On the command "Fall In," you must double time to your position in the formation and follow the lead of the right flank man. Stand in the Position of Attention, turn your head and eyes to the right, and raise your left arm the way your right flank man is standing. Keep your left arm raised to shoulder level with the elbow locked, fingers and thumb extended and joined, and your palm facing down. Take short steps either forward or backward to be in line with your right flank man. Take short steps either left or right so that your shoulder is touching the fingertips of the individual to your right. Once you are in place (called "Normal Interval"), lower your arm to your side, turn your head and eyes to face forward, and resume the Position of Attention. When marching over short distances, you and your squad may be marched in a line formation moving forward. If marching over a longer distance, you and your squad may be marched in a column formation. If you are expected to form a column from a line formation, you will be given the command "Right, FACE." If you are in a column moving a short distance, you may be commanded to march to the flank. The command you will receive is "Right (or Left) Flank, MARCH."  On the command of Right or Left Flank, the foot that is striking the ground is the direction you're expected to...

TL;DR in English: Maintain proper distance. Form a squad. March with the squad. Follow a march to the flank. Get dismissed from the squad.

It might seem counterintuitive to emphasize exercise for an eating competition, but regular exercise is essential to keeping unwanted weight off, and it also helps to increase your metabolism. Many hot dog eating champions incorporate both cardio exercise and weight training into their regular workouts. Learning to chew quickly can give you a competitive edge at competitions. Chew gum as much as possible when not eating. Also consider chewing more than 1 stick of gum at a time to give your jaw muscles a more intense workout. The competitive eater Bob Shouldn't  chews up to 25 pieces at a time. Write down how much water you can drink on a given day. Consult with your doctor to determine the rate at which you can safely increase your water intake. Drinking large amounts of water will allow you to gradually increase your stomach's capacity without introducing extra calories. Challenge yourself to the meet the goals you establish with your doctor. It's essential that you work with you physician to ensure that you increase your water intake safely. If you drink water too fast, you risk throwing off your electrolyte balance, which could cause you to get dizzy, loose consciousness, or even go into shock. In addition to drinking water, eat low-calorie foods to increase your stomach's capacity. Steamed vegetables, watermelon, and leafy greens are great options. Use a scale to weigh them before eating them, so you can track how much you're consuming as your training progresses.  It's also important to share this information with your physician to ensure that you are not consuming too much of a given food group. Too much sugary watermelon, for instance, could have health consequences. You'll also need your doctor's supervision to make sure that you maintain the correct food to water balance, as this can also impact your electrolyte levels and overall health. Take large gulps of water and gradually increase to larger and larger gulps. Then try semi-solid foods like yogurt or soup before attempting to swallow large...

TL;DR in English: Exercise regularly to remain in good health. Chew gum regularly to strengthen chewing muscles. Increase your water intake. Expand your stomach with low-calorie foods. Practice swallowing large amounts of food without gagging. Perfect your hot dog eating technique. Film yourself eating hot dogs using your fastest strategies. Challenge yourself with practice competitions.

Position the rectangle so that the narrower end is facing you. Make sure that the folded edge is at the top of the rectangle, facing away from you. Use a pencil to draw the line, and a ruler to make the line as straight as possible. This is your guideline. You will be cutting up towards this line, but you won't be cutting past it. Draw lightly with the pencil so that you won't see the marks when you are done. Space them ½ inch (1.27 centimeters) apart. Again, use a pencil to draw the lines, and a ruler to make them straight. These will be your cutting lines. Do not cut past the guideline. Also, make sure that you are cutting through both layers of tissue paper at the same time. The rectangle will now have a fringe on both of the narrow ends, like a giant set of whiskers. Straighten the strands as you roll. Leave the "whiskers" loose. The only part you should be twisting is the solid, uncut part. Keep the top part of the loop (the twisted part) at the top. Wrap the tape around the twisted part, about 1½ inches (3.81 centimeters) down from the top. Do not get any tape on the tassels. You can use clear tape, or patterned/washi tape. If you make enough tassels, you can make a garland to hand across your doorway. Typical tassel garlands are between 3 and 4 feet (0.91 and 1.22 meters) long.

Notice the broken lines. Observe the variance in spots. Don't confuse the spotted tabby and mackerel tabby.

Cape sundews will do well in bright greenhouses or even on a windowsill that gets lots of light. Unlike lots of other carnivorous plants, they don’t need to spend part of the year in a lower-temperature “dormancy period.” You also won’t be able to overwater these guys -- they love being wet! So long as you’ve got a spot in your garden with full sun, these trumpet-like pitcher plants are for you! There are lots of different Sarracenia varieties that can stay outdoors all year round. They appreciate warm to hot summers and high humidity, and they thrive in in-ground bogs or outdoor pots.  Sarracenia purpura does just fine in areas with shorter growing seasons and freezing temperatures over the winter, such as in the Northeastern United States or Southern Canada.  Some Sarracenia varieties, including psittancina, rosea, and minor, do better in areas that don’t experience harsh winters or long periods of freezing temperatures. Marsh pitcher plants, also called Heliamphora, appreciate a cooler indoor environment. They need lots of light, water, and high humidity, and they’ll do well in any room where you can provide these elements. These plants produce attractive red-greenish “pitchers” that catch their prey. These plants are pretty picky about temperature and light -- they need a cool spot and lots of sunlight! Because they’re so temperamental, they’re not great for beginners. There are lots of different varieties of butterwort, but an easy one to grow is the Mexican Pinguicula. This pretty little plant produces purple flowers and rosettes of silvery leaves. They do well as houseplants so long as they’re kept next to a bright window. These guys are so cool they’ve inspired Broadway musicals! Like Sarracenia, Venus fly traps thrive in outdoor full-sun spots that don’t drop below about 20℉ (about -6℃) during the winter. They also make great houseplants so long as they get enough light.

TL;DR in English: Go with a Cape sundew if you’re a beginner. Choose Sarracenia for a good outdoor plant. Grow a marsh pitcher plant if you want to keep it inside. Plant butterwort for a flowering carnivore. Pick a Venus flytrap for an iconic indoor/outdoor plant.

In addition to your BMI, knowing this number will help you to assess your weight and risk of developing obesity-related health conditions. Excessive waist fat increases risk for Type 2 diabetes, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, high blood pressure and coronary artery disease.  Measure your waist size by holding a cloth tape measure around your waist, just above your hip bone and measuring the number of inches or centimeters. The tape should be snug, but not pushing into your skin. A man's waist should be 40 inches (101.6 cm) or less.  A woman's waist should be 35 inches (88.9 cm) or less. Numerous ones are available online and they take into account your waistline in addition to your height, weight, and sex. They're not completely accurate, but they will give you a ballpark.  For men, lean is considered 15-18% body fat. Moderate is 19-24%. For women, lean is considered 21-25%. Moderate is 26-29%. Overweight is anything above these numbers. If you're very hard up, skin  calipers can be bought online. But it's best to address any questions or concerns about your assessment with a health care professional. The skin caliper test is much more accurate. It gives an indication of body composition (muscle and fat). It's important because two people with the same body weight and height could have completely different body composition. Different results lead to different ways to stay or become healthy.

TL;DR in English: Measure your waist circumference. Find a body fat percentage calculator. See your doctor for a skinfold test.

Spotted cats earned their name because of the broken lines in their coat patterns. This "broken" coat pattern may cause the lines to appear as spots, though this cat is still very much a tabby. The "spots" on the spotted tabby's coat can come in a variety of shapes and sizes. They may be large or small, and may appear to be round, ovular, or rose-shaped. Though every spotted tabby's coat will be slightly different, some may be easily confused with a mackerel tabby. Certain spotted tabbies may have "spots" that extend from a spinal stripe, like the mackerel tabby. The difference is that a spotted tabby will still have a more blotchy or spotted appearance.

A pinched nerve occurs when a nerve is damaged in some way and unable to fully send its signals. It is caused when a nerve gets compressed, which can be due to a herniated disc, arthritis, or bone spurs. You can also get a pinched nerve from other situations and activities such as injury, poor posture, repetitive motions, sports, hobbies, and obesity. Pinched nerves can occur all over the body, although they are most common in the spine, neck, wrists, and elbows.  These conditions cause inflammation, which constricts your nerves and causes them to become pinched. Poor nutrition and general health can worsen a pinched nerve. This condition can be reversible or irreversible, depending on the severity of the case. A pinched nerve is essentially a physical obstruction of body’s wiring system.  The symptoms of a pinched nerve usually include numbness, minor swelling, sharp pain, tingling, muscle spasms, and muscle weakness. A pinched nerve is typically associated with shooting pains in the affected area. These symptoms happen because the nerves are not effectively sending signals through the body due to the compression or obstruction to your nerve. Once you diagnose your pinched nerve, you need to start taking care of yourself. You should stay off of the affected body part or use it less.  Repetitive use of muscles, joints, and tendons that have caused the compressed nerves will make it worse. This is because the surrounding areas continue to swell and constrict the nerve. The easiest way to get a bit of immediate pain relief from any compressed nerve is to rest the pinched nerve and the surrounding area until the swelling and compression completely subsides.  You should avoid flexing and moving the area of the pinched nerve so you don't pinch the nerve even further. There are certain movements that cause your symptoms to immediately get worse, and these movements should be avoided if at all possible. If a certain movement or position causes increased symptoms and pain, isolate the injured area and avoid doing...

TL;DR in English: Recognize a pinched nerve. Notice the symptoms. Avoid overuse. Get some sleep. Use a brace or splint. Apply ice and heat. Get a massage. Take pain relieving medication. See a doctor.

Steam cleaning uses hot water to deep clean your carpet and extract deeply-embedded particles. You can purchase a steam cleaner and do this yourself. Before you steam clean, you need to vacuum and spot treat the stains on your carpet. Follow the manufacturer instructions for using your steam cleaner.  Pull the machine slowly as you go over your carpet. Only go over the area one time to limit the amount of water that you apply to the carpet. It is extremely important that you dry your carpet thoroughly. Not extracting all of the water can result in mold, mildew, and odor. Open windows and use fans to speed up the drying process. If you do not want to purchase a steam cleaner, you can rent one from a local hardware store or carpet store. Dry cleaning involves applying a dry powder to your carpet, working the powder into the carpet, and then vacuuming up the dry powder. The dry powder helps pull the dirt and soil out of the carpet. Vacuum your carpet before you apply the powder. Follow the instructions on the cleaner to determine how much you should use on your carpet.  The instructions may recommend that you use a mechanical brush to work the powder into the carpet. However, the brushes should not be used on Berber as it may cause snags. Instead, work the powder gently in with your hands. Always read the label to determine how long to leave the powder on. Some powders require 20 to 30 minutes while other compounds may be vacuumed up immediately. This type of cleaning is recommended for Berber because there is not a risk of over-wetting the carpet and causing mold and mildew. If your carpet is deeply stained or you are not comfortable using these methods on your own, hire a professional cleaner. A professional cleaner will assess the type of Berber you have and the condition of your carpet. The cleaner can then choose an appropriate cleaning method.  Use carpet cleaner that has experience working with Berber carpet. Visit the Institute of Inspection Cleaning and Restoration Cleaning website to find a certified...

It's often been said that a smile is contagious, and research suggests that's true. Studies suggest that friendly engagement with others boosts happiness levels, at least in part because people are more likely to treat a smiling person better than a non-smiling person.  A smiling person is more likely to be regarded as viewed as attractive, reliable, relaxed and sincere.  Cheering yourself up by cheering others is a hallmark of how to have a good life. Studies have shown that helping others has a direct correlation to individual well-being. Taking time to care for others has been a staple of understanding "the good life" throughout time. Volunteering to help others has been connected to better quality of life, including increased happiness, self-esteem, health and even longevity.  Taking time to listen to another person's problems is a great way to help others. Many times, people who are struggling simply need to be able to share their situation with a friend. By taking the time to listen, you are helping whether you can solve their situation or not. The Dalai Lama has said, “If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.”Putting your attention on another person, rather than yourself, is a common practice of living well with others. Most of us are taught this as children, but the idea that there are guaranteed outcomes for particular efforts or personal qualities is a sure-fire way to live in disappointment and resentment. Let it go.  Taking responsibility for your own actions is an important discipline to develop. There may be many circumstances beyond your control, but focusing on these won't help you develop the ability to make changes in your own life that may benefit you. Accept the things you can't change; change what you can. Letting go of resentments towards others is an essential part of the good life. It has been well-said that a resentment is "like taking poison, expecting the other person to die." Resentments erode the quality of your own life,...

If you want to be even more casual, you can simply say "nansai desu ka." On the other hand, if you're talking to someone older than you or in a position of authority and want to be more formal, you would say "toshi wa ikutsu desu ka." " Counting in Japanese is fairly easy to master. If you can count to 10 in Japanese, you can form any number. Use that number for your age.  For example, if you're 26 years old, you would respond "watashi wa ni-juu-roku sai desu." If you were asked with the more casual "nansai desu ka," you can simply respond with your age followed by "sai desu ka." If you want to potentially impress a Japanese person who asks your age, you can answer them with reference to the Japanese calendar. If you were born between 1926 through 1988, you were born in the Showa era. If you were born between 1989 and 2019, you were born during the Heisei era. The year you were born translates into a number of year in the era, which in turn you can use to express how old you are. For example, suppose you were born in 1992. The Heisei era started in 1989, so you were born in the fourth year of the Heisei era. Your age is "Heisei 4."

Professional desktop publishing or design software may be helpful in creating elaborate invitation designs. However, any word processing program can be used to create basic wedding invitations. A font is the typeface (or sometimes called lettering) used for your invitation. Most wedding invitations feature 2 fonts--1 script font and 1 block font. Do not use more than 2 different fonts or the invitation may be difficult to read.  Experiment with free fonts available for download online. Try different font combinations and font treatments, such as italics, lowercase and uppercase typeface. Try different font sizes. The font size is how big the text appears on the invitation. Because fonts vary in typeface size, it is difficult to provide a suggested font size for invitations. As a rule of thumb, avoid font sizes smaller than 9 point. Consider using larger font sizes to highlight different parts of the invitation text, such as the names of the bride and groom. The text alignment is how the text is aligned or arranged on the invitation. Traditional wedding invitations feature center alignment. However, consider right  or left justified alignments depending on your invitation design. Line spacing is the amount of space between the lines of text. If the line spacing is too far apart or too close together, the invitation will be difficult to read. Adjust the line spacing as necessary to meet your design needs. If you are not an artist or graphic designer, the easiest way to add graphic elements to a wedding invitation is through high-end clip art.  Look for clip art with resolutions of at least 300 dpi (dots per inch). Low resolutions graphics do not reproduce well and often appear blurry. For crisp, high quality graphics, use only high resolution images. Incorporate graphic elements that carry out the theme of your wedding. If your wedding does not have a specific theme, consider images like florals, branches and Victorian flourishes to create invitations with timeless appeal. Evaluate the color scheme of your...

TL;DR in English: Choose a word processing or design software to create your invitations. Select the fonts for the invitation. Determine the text alignment. Consider the line spacing. Add visual interest with graphic elements. Add color to your invitation design.

Sometimes, when you make a loan to another party, that party does not pay it back as promised. In this type of situation, it is best to follow the language of your contract. However, at some point, you will need to confront the other party and discuss ways you can get your money back. For example, if your contract has a late payment clause, follow that clause and charge the other party a late fee. However, if, after a couple of months of not receiving any payment (including no late fee payments), you should consider confronting the other party and requesting repayment. A lot of borrowers claim the loan they took was actually a gift. If you find yourself in this situation, reiterate to the other party that it was indeed a loan and that you expect to be paid back. Bring a copy of your promissory note to emphasize this fact. Even if you already have a promissory note in place, consider writing up a new contract that compliments the original. In this contract, create a large section on repayment and the expectations you have. In some situations, you may be able to deduct the amount owed to you passively. For example, if the person usually does some sort of paid work for you, consider not paying them for their work until your loan is paid off. One excuse people often have is that they cannot make the payments because all they have is a credit card. As a solution, consider purchasing a credit card machine so you can accept their form of payment. There are a number of ways to receive a credit card reader that can easily be installed on your smart phone or tablet. For example, Square offers a free credit card reader so long as you use their payment services. If you are not being paid back, suggest to the other party that they need to bring in the funds some how. You may be able to suggest they sell some unwanted items online and use the proceeds to pay you back. If the other party is not responding to your requests, you can get proactive and make the issue public. Talk to people that know the other party and address...

TL;DR in English: Know when it is time to confront the other party. Clarify that you indeed offered a loan. Create a post-loan commitment. Deduct the amount owed internally. Have a credit card machine. Suggest moneymaking alternatives. Go public. Send a demand letter.

Grab a bowl, cup or ramekin big enough to hold your eggs. Break the flat side of each egg on the rim of the container and let the contents drain into it. To save time, do this while waiting for your pan to heat up. Don't crack the eggs directly into the hot pan. If you do this, it's easier to break the yolks or cook your eggs unevenly. You also have less control over where they will lie in the pan. Now, let the eggs cook without disturbing them for a minute or two. You want the bottoms of the whites to be fully set (but not hard) before you proceed. Depending on your pan and the level of heat you're using, this will take anywhere from about 45 seconds to two minutes. Keep your eyes on the edges of the whites — they are thinner than the center, so they will solidify first. When you notice that the edges are solid, you can proceed even if the whites in the middle are still a little liquid. Congratulations! Your over easy eggs are done. Transfer out of the pan to a plate and serve with toast, bacon, hash browns, or other breakfast favorites.

Boil one cup of cayenne pepper and 3-5 chopped habanero chilis with water in a pot and let it cool. Transfer it into a spray bottle. Spray the entry points you've identified. Because raccoons follow their noses, this spray will make their nesting area unbearable. Use goggles and a respirator before spraying in enclosed areas. Although hot peppers are technically non-toxic, they can irritate mucous membranes in your eyes and mouth. Raccoons can easily scale wood or metal fences. They also use nearby tree limbs or shrubs to help them over fences. Run electrified wires at the top and bottom of your fence to deter intrusions. Prune tree limbs near fences. If you decide to replace your fence, make sure the mesh is no wider than 3 inches (7.6 cm). This will prevent young raccoons from entering your yard.

TL;DR in English: Repel raccoons from entry points and nesting areas. Seal off your yard.

Many travelers use prescription or over-the-counter sleeping aids to help them get to sleep.  However, prescription medications should only be taken if prescribed by a physician.  Risks associated with sleeping pills include DVT (deep vein thrombosis) and feelings of drowsiness and disorientation upon awakening. Over-the-counter sleep aids have a more moderate effect but it is still recommended that you only take them if you can ensure that you have four uninterrupted hours to sleep. Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the body, it is also available as an over-the-counter supplement.  Sleep researchers have found that melatonin levels are elevated after dark and remain elevated throughout the night, suggesting that it can promote sleep. Some studies also suggest that if you continue to take it when you arrive at your destination, it can ease the symptoms of jet lag as well. Essential oils such as lavender, chamomile and valerian have a relaxing effect and may help you drift off to sleep.   When traveling, pack a small spray bottle with your desired essential oil mix and spray on your pillow or clothing. There are various apps and gadgets that you can use to help you settle down and get some rest.  Noise-cancelling headsets can reduce the noise of the plane engine quite effectively.

Lay the notebook flat so that you can see both the reverse side of the first page on the left and the front side of the second page on the right. The sections can be vertical columns or horizontal rows, depending on what you’re more comfortable with.  Adjust the number of sections per page according to the size of your pages and how many assignments you have. Lay it out in a way that makes sense to you. The point is to set up so that you'll find it easy to use and will consult it daily. A planner that you don't like using obviously won't help you organize your homework and get assignments done. For example, Monday, March 3; Tuesday, March 4; and Wednesday, March 5.  This is where you will record your homework assignments from that day. If you structure the sections horizontally, you can use the margin or make a column on the right side to keep track of when your assignments are due. ” This side is where you keep track of extracurricular activities, like band practice, sporting events, and dance class. You can divide it up into days like you did on the right side, or you can just list everything in the order that it will occur. You can add other sections to this page if there is anything else you need to keep track of. The more information you write down, the more you’ll use your planner as a reference. And if you’re using your planner regularly, you’ll be less likely to forget an important assignment.

Remove any baking pans from inside of your oven before you preheat it. Then, make sure to place the oven rack on the center rung in your oven. This will help the pizza cook evenly, and prevent the dough from burning. Use your fingers or a pastry brush to spread the oil across the inside of the pizza pan. The oil will keep the dough from sticking to the pan and will give the bottom of the pizza added flavor. If you do not have a round pizza pan, use a rectangular baking sheet instead. Simply coat the baking sheet with the olive oil as you would the pizza pan.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to 450 °F (232 °C) before you begin making your pizza. Coat a 12 in (30 cm) round pizza pan with 1 1⁄2 US tbsp (22 mL) of olive oil.

To begin factoring, all you need is a number - any number will do, but, for our purposes, let's start with a simple integer. Integers are numbers without fractional or decimal components (all positive and negative whole numbers are integers). Let's choose the number 12. Write this number down on a piece of scratch paper. Any integer can be written as the product of two other integers. Even prime numbers can be written as the product of 1 and the number itself. Thinking of a number as the product of two factors can require "backwards" thinking - you essentially must ask yourself, "what multiplication problem equals this number?"  In our example, 12 has multiple factors - 12 × 1, 6 × 2, and 3 × 4 all equal 12. So, we can say that 12's factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. For our purposes, let's work with the factors 6 and 2. Even numbers are especially easy to factor because every even number has 2 as a factor. 4 = 2 × 2, 26 = 13 × 2, etc. Lots of numbers - especially large ones - can be factored multiple times. When you've found two of a number's factors, if one has its own set of factors, you can reduce this number to its factors as well. Depending on the situation, it may or may not be beneficial to do this. For instance, in our example, we have reduced 12 to 2 × 6. Notice that 6 has its own factors - 3 × 2 = 6. Thus, we can say that 12 =  2 × (3 × 2). Prime numbers are numbers greater than 1 that are evenly divisible only by themselves and 1. For instance, 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, and 17 are all prime numbers. When you've factored a number so that it's the product of exclusively prime numbers, further factoring is superfluous. It does you no good to reduce each factor to itself times one, so you may stop. In our example, we've reduced 12 to 2 × (2 × 3). 2, 2, and 3 are all prime numbers. If we were to factor further, we'd have to factor to (2 × 1) × ((2 × 1)(3 × 1)), which isn't typically useful, so it's usually avoided. Negative numbers can be factored nearly identically to how positive numbers are factored. The...

New and unique experiences enrich people's lives and help them feel happier overall. Whenever possible, spend your free time trying new things, going new places, and experiencing life.  If you have a little money set aside to treat yourself, consider investing in an experience, like a vacation, instead of an object. The experience will leave you with great memories that you can look back on for the rest of your life, which will increase your happiness. Don't feel like you always need to have someone with you to enjoy these experiences. As a single person, you can choose to have adventures with friends and family or alone. Volunteering for a worthy cause greatly increases people's sense of self-worth and fulfillment. Look for an organization in your area that has a mission you believe in and find out how you can help. As a bonus, you may also meet new friends who also care about the cause. If you don't have the time to commit to ongoing volunteer work, there are plenty of short-term volunteer opportunities out there. Even a few hours of volunteering is meaningful. Many people find that exercise increases their happiness and makes them feel better about themselves. Try finding a type of exercise that you enjoy, whether it's playing a team sport or going for walks. It's fine to spend time at home alone, as long as you don't become bored and isolated. To avoid this, use your alone time to cultivate your creative interests or learn new things.  Try taking an online class or developing a new hobby, like painting or sewing. Avoid watching too much television, as this can become a stand-in for social relationships.

TL;DR in English: Focus on experiences. Try volunteering. Enjoy physical activity. Spend alone time constructively.

For the best fit, use a flexible tape measure like one you would find in a sewing kit.  Measure the head of the person who will be wearing the headband from the nape of the neck, up over their head where the headband will be and completing the loop back at the nape.  If the person is unavailable to be measured, you can use these general guidelines:  Preemie: 11”-12” Newborn:  13” Up to 1:  14” 1-6:  15” 7-Teen:  16.5” Adult:  17.5” Especially with babies, be sure to get a good fit that is not too tight.  Constricting an infant's head could have a problematic effect on its growth and development. Choose a fold-over elastic.  This is the preferred elastic for headbands.  It is available in a variety of colors and patterns at your local fabric store or hobby shop.  Fold-over elastic has a finished, shiny side and a matte underside, and a seam running longways down the middle.  This elastic comes in 1/8”, 3/8” and 5/8” widths.  The one most commonly use for headbands is 3/8", but some like a thin 1/8" headband, especially for babies. Some elastic is made with silicone strips in the back.  This is useful if you are concerned about the headband slipping. Measure the piece of elastic according to the measurements you took or the average length for the age of person you are creating the headband for.  If you are using actual head measurements, keep in mind that you want the headband to stretch.  Subtract one inch from the head size to make sure the headband will be snug. If the person who you are making the headband for is there, wrap the elastic around their head and make sure that the elastic stretches just enough to hold the headband in place once it is complete. Beware of making the headband so tight that it would be uncomfortable.

TL;DR in English: Measure your head. Choose your elastic. Cut the elastic to fit your head. Test your size to make sure there is some stretch in the fabric.

Depression in men is commonly displayed through anger. It is not uncommon to lack sleep and energy when depressed, which can ultimately have a significant effect on his mood. If your loved one has been displaying random fits of anger, this may be an underlying symptom of depression. Women tend to show emotional symptoms in the form of tears, and communicate their need for assistance. Men on the other hand tend to act out, typically in a more aggressive, angrier fashion. A man with depression will likely display trouble concentrating, remembering details, or making decisions. He'll be unable to concentrate and make decisions, be it important or minute. This will greatly affect his home and work life. If he has depression, he likely feels sad or empty. If he's unwilling to open up about it, you may observe him being generally down about life.  He may not get excited or feel happy about things that would normally be pleasurable, which is another way to determine if he's feeling blue. Men generally have difficulty expressing sadness. Sometimes this emptiness manifests as feeling hopeless, irritable, anxious, or angry. He may seem pessimistic, easily annoyed, worried about things out of his control, and will display a short temper. If this person displays 4-5 of the symptoms listed above, he is most likely dealing with depression.  However, one or two symptoms do not indicate a depressive episode – we all feel down and blue at times. What's more, depression will last for more than two weeks; mere sadness goes away sooner and is often only in certain environments. If depression does seem to be the case, know that it's highly treatable. In fact, most people will experience at least 1 depressive episode at one point in their life.  It's incredibly common and nothing to be ashamed about. . This is often the hardest symptom to observe because people often do not want to talk about suicide.  However, this can be observed through speech patterns.  People who are depressed may make comments about just wanting to get away,...

Ask your acting teachers, colleagues and friends if they know of any upcoming projects in your area.   These can be your best first resource. An acting coach or teacher will know what parts you are suited for and can give you valuable contacts. Your own professional network will be able to recommend you to casting directors and local agents. You can find them in your local newspapers, websites, TV, radios and elsewhere.  Many TV networks post on their websites when they have casting calls for shows or other projects Theater auditions and castings are often published in theater magazines or local newspapers. Look in major newspapers for large cities. You will have better luck finding opportunities in large metropolitan areas with big entertainment industries. Facebook is a great resource for getting auditions.   Event pages are often used to announce open casting calls and auditions. These can be a good resource for both film, tv, and theater. Look at agents pages or find specific project pages on Facebook. Sometimes, audition information will be posted there. You can also find casting calls and auditions on Twitter and Craigslist. You might have more luck finding auditions and acting opportunities if you live closer to a large city with an entertainment industry. At first go to the sites, sign up and post your head shots.   Some examples of these sites include www.exploretalent.com, www.laauditions.com, www.actoraccess.com, or www. backstage.com. Make sure your profile is distinct, detailed, and has multiple headshots. Most of these sites will send you emails or alerts when a project is holding auditions or open casting for a part. Be wary of using these sites as your only resource. Many of them charge a fee with minimal return. These can be a very good tool for researching projects that are happening locally.

Starting on the right foot is essential. People will form lasting impressions of you as early as the first day. You want to do your homework and make ample preparation. Without preparation, you may run into difficulties and find yourself unnecessarily aggravated or irritable. Being short or snapping at another co-worker is a terrible way to start a relationship. Make sure to either bring or ask for a notebook to begin taking notes early in the day. Bringing one from home shows initiative. Don't be the new employee who doesn't write anything down. Plan to be there at least 15 minutes early. Report directly to your boss or human resources contact. If you don't know where to go, kindly let another employee know this is your first day and ask them for directions. They had a first day too so they will understand. Until you know the rules, assume that using your cell phone during business hours is grounds for immediate termination (this assumption is not far from reality). The first day is all about first impressions. Any cell phone interruption signals a lack of professionalism. Most of the bad workplace behaviors come from a lack of respect for others. While your co-workers function in a variety of roles at work, they are still people with feelings. Being nice and leaving hand written Thank You's builds positive working relationships.  Prepare to avoid joking or discussing race, gender, age, sexual orientation, or religion. These are sensitive issues for most people. Even if you are comfortable discussing these topics, many other people may feel uncomfortable if you discuss them openly. Resist the temptation to ask or pry into people's personal lives. If your curiosity is tickled, ask yourself if the answer is work-related? If not, its best to not ask.

TL;DR in English:


Decide how you feel about your crush. Don't "build up" the experience in your head. Pay attention to his behavior. Realize that a negative response is not a big deal. Let go of the notion that the man needs to make the first move.

“To” is a preposition. It’s always correct if you are talking about direction. Ex. “I’m going to the store.”  "To" is also used to form the infinitive verb form. Ex. "It is my goal to write one page today." “Too" is always an adverb. It’s correct if you can substitute "also." Ex. “Really? I hate that guy, too!” "Two" is always a number.  You should almost always write out the word "two" rather than using the Arabic number. For mathematical uses, use the Arabic number. Ex. “Please buy two-percent milk this time.”

TL;DR in English: Use "to” as instructed. Use “too” as instructed. Use “two” as instructed.

Romantic feelings can be confusing! Give yourself at least a few days to consider your feelings and follow some of the advice in this article. If you act too soon, you may find your feelings about your crush change over time.  Ask yourself questions like these: "Do I have a true romantic crush on this boy, or just an infatuation?" "What things do I like about this guy?" "What outcome do I want?" If you can't answer these questions, try to get to know him better before proceeding. Only you will know whether you truly like someone. However, if you're feeling particularly adventurous, you can try taking an online quiz and interpreting the results as you please. No matter how cute your crush is, he's still a human being! He's probably as nervous as you are about discussing who he likes. Similarly, even if it's not apparent yet, he probably has plenty of flaws. Don't get too emotionally invested in a relationship that hasn't even started! If you're having a hard time thinking of your crush as anything other than a perfect Adonis, try to mentally note things about him, however small, that make him look silly or stupid! Does he have a tiny bald spot? Does he pronounce "epitome" as "ep-it-tome?" Recognizing that everyone has flaws will make even the cutest guys much more approachable. Does he seem to pay special attention to you? Does he smile a lot around you? Or, on the other hand, does he tease you and try to playfully ignore you? These are all signs that a guy might like you. If you can identify possible attraction cues, you'll have a much easier time telling him you like him because you'll already have an idea of how he feels! A guy's body language can reveal his inner emotions. Does he position his chest and shoulders toward you, even if his attention is momentarily occupied by something else? Does he seem to make eye contact with you a lot? He may be pondering how to tell a girl he likes her! Despite your best preparations, he might not return your interest. Acknowledge this as a possibility and try not to...

Virginia has two different types of divorce under the law. The first is akin to a legal separation in other states, the second is the tradition dissolution of the marriage contract.  "Divorce from Bed and Board." This legal action preserves the legal marriage, but acts as to divide property and settle child custody and visitation. There is no waiting period for filing this action, but there must be a clear showing of desertion and cruelty. The separation cannot be mutual. The lack of mutuality requirement is what separates this type of divorce from a legal separation.   "Divorce from the Bond of Matrimony." This is the traditional divorce and requires either the 6 to 12 month separation or a showing of grounds. You will need to file for either type of divorce in the county where you or your spouse lives. Because of the different types of divorce and the grounds for divorce in Virginia, the style of the divorce petition can be complicated. You have several options.  For an uncontested divorce based on separation of 6 months for childless couples and 12 months for couples with children, you can use the divorce petition generator from Legal Aid of Virginia. These forms have been created and vetted by lawyers familiar with the laws of Virginia.   Check with the court clerk in your county. Some courts have fill-in-the-blanks form packages for sale. The cost is usually under $10. However, these packages will likely be for uncontested divorces based on separation. You can attach the separation agreement you and your spouse have been living under to the petition. For a fault-based divorce that is likely to be contested, it is highly recommended that you contact a family law attorney. Even if you don't hire them for representation, Virginia law allows attorneys to provide document preparation services. Fault-based divorce petitions must include properly pleaded allegations of the grounds that can pass the court's scrutiny. If you are seeking a divorce from Bed and Board, you should seek legal advice and assistance...

TL;DR in English: Choose the type of divorce you want. Draw up a petition for divorce. Verify that your petition covers all subjects. Consider mediation. File and serve your divorce petition. Attend your court hearing. Receive your divorce decree.

The Atkins Diet recommends drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day to help maintain a regular regimen. Water helps with constipation by keeping stools looser. The Institute of Medicine recommends that men drink at least 13 cups of water a day, while women should drink at least 9. You can count caffeinated beverages such as coffee, tea, and diet soda as part of your water intake. However, too much caffeine can make you crave sugar, which is off-limits on the Atkins Diet, so limit your intake of caffeinated beverages. For instance, fresh cucumbers are high in water, so they can help keep you hydrated. They're also non-starchy, so they're approved for the Atkins Diet. The Atkins Diet requires that you skip fruits (lemon or lime is okay) and eliminate starchy vegetables, especially for the first few weeks, until you begin to maintain your weight. However, you can add certain non-starchy vegetables to water add interest and to flavor it, such as slices of cucumber, a few fresh strawberry slices. You can also use flavor packets sweetened with small amounts of: sucralose (Splenda), stevia, aspartame (NutraSweet) or saccharine (Sweet-n-Low). However, you do need to count these packets as a gram of carbohydrates because of the fillers in these types of sweeteners.

Make sure the meat is cooked. If you're using the red wine marinade above, mix together the red wine, beef broth, garlic, tomatoes, bay leaves, black pepper and thyme. Place your defrosted beef flanken ribs in the bag. Seal it and flip the bag several times to coat

Defrost the ribs for a day in the refrigerator. Mix a marinade. Pour the marinade into a sealable plastic sack. Place the bag in the refrigerator for four hours. Remove the ribs from the refrigerator and the plastic bag. Heat two tbsp. Remove the ribs from the Dutch oven and place them on a platter. Dice an onion, two large carrots and two celery stalks. Place the ribs inside the Dutch oven. Secure the lid on the top of the Dutch oven. Remove the ribs from the pot. Bring the remaining juice to a boil and reduce it by half.

What is your basic motivation? Are you bored? Disaffected? Do you need a bigger challenge? Is your job too demanding and you want a better work-life balance? Be sure that you are making an educated decision. Transferring departments is doable – for example, 1/3 of the British grocery chain Sainsbury’s 500 yearly recruits for retail management transfer to other operations -- but you should have a good reason. Try putting your thoughts on paper. Don’t over-think or over-rationalize. Write down why you feel the need to move, emotions and all. Now that you’ve stated your reasons, it is time to decide whether they are legitimate. Understand that some reasons to transfer are good and others not as good. For example, you may be new to your department and not feel suited to the job. Improper fit is a legitimate reason to transfer. So is the desire for a greater challenge or the need to balance your life. Simple boredom or unhappiness need more thought, though. All jobs have ups and downs. What is behind your boredom? Is it something that might change after a time, like routine? Or is it a bigger problem, like you feel unchallenged and unmotivated?  More good reasons to transfer include relocating to different state or part of town, seeking better team or department fit, issues with your direct supervisor, and striving to meet career goals your current job cannot offer. Less compelling reasons include taking issue with company policies or procedures, ethical concerns, or problems with executive level management. None of the above will change much with a transfer and you may find yourself leaving the company shortly after transferring. Do not be think that a transfer will be a quick fix for your personal and/or work issues. If your issues wind up being company-wide, the grass may not be greener on the other side. It may be harder to transfer if you work for a small company, where many co-workers are “lifers” and roles are clearly set. In that case, an external move might be better. Network with those you are interested...

TL;DR in English: Assess why you want to transfer. Evaluate your reasons. Network and build strong relationships. Research and apply for internal job openings. Be upfront with your supervisor.

This is optional although it can give the ball a better flight movement in the air. When Ronaldo takes a free kick, he always lines up the ball so the valve will make contact with his foot. It's difficult to know if this contact has any real effect on the trajectory of the ball or if it's just superstition, but it can't hurt to try. He then stands with his arms straight down and his legs spread very wide, more than shoulder-width. As he approaches, he works a distinctive stutter-step into his kicks. Taking a few quick stutters tends to throw off the goalkeepers and other defenders, so they won't know exactly when the kick is coming. Plant your other foot beside the ball and to the opposite side of your strong foot to get the proper angle for an upward arch of the ball. His free-kicks tend to go up high very quickly, seeming to explode off his foot. This comes from the quick and short follow through right after making contact with the ball. Done properly, the kick won't spin, but will arc up, then dip back down quickly, or zig-zag according to the power put in with the follow-through. You want to make contact on the ball with the long bone in your foot that runs from your big toe to the top of your foot. Aim for the nozzle valve that you faced toward you at the beginning of the kick. To give it the knuckle-ball effect, you need to avoid putting any English or spin on the ball whatsoever. Try to hit the ball just below the middle but not too low so that it doesn't take backspin. Not rolling it off your foot at all. The most important part of the kick is the follow-through. Follow through by pointing your kicking foot where you want the ball to go, swiveling around toward your target and driving your plant foot off the ground and up into the air. Bring your kicking knee straight up instead of the more traditional follow-through in which you end up to the side. Imagine you wanted to make the knee of your kicking foot touch your chin after you make contact with the ball. Done properly, your kicking foot should hit...

TL;DR in English: Position the ball with the valve facing you. Take five steps back to the right if you're right footed or to the left if you're left footed, then take one and a half steps to the left. Plant your non-kicking foot and lean forward. Contact the ball just below the centre of the ball center with your instep. Follow through.

Make sure they have enough time to defrost. You don't want to defrost tougher pieces of meat, like this, in the microwave. There are several marinades that work well with short ribs, including red wine, dark beer and Asian-style ribs. If you're using the red wine marinade above, mix together the red wine, beef broth, garlic, tomatoes, bay leaves, black pepper and thyme. Place your defrosted beef flanken ribs in the bag. Seal it and flip the bag several times to coat the meat. The longer they marinate, the more intensely flavored they will be. Pat them dry with some paper towels. Reserve the marinade. Dry beef will brown better. of olive oil in a Dutch oven on medium heat. Place the flanken into the heated pan to brown. Brown for three minutes on each side. Remove all but two tbsp. of oil from the pan. Toss them in the Dutch oven and sauté them in the oil until browned. Loosen any brown bits with your wooden spoon. Pour in the reserved marinade. Heat until boiling. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook at this low temperature for one and a half hours to two hours. Set them aside and keep them warm. Separate the fat if possible, or use the full-fat reduction as sauce. Serve immediately.

Understand that sometimes there are very subtle or no warning signs. Recognize the most common symptoms of a heart attack. Recognize some of the less common symptoms of heart attack. Call emergency services

Take a look at the beliefs you hold and ask yourself, “How did I come to believe this?” Think about who taught you a belief and how your life experiences have reinforced it. For example, if you were raised believing that hard work is all you need to succeed, ask yourself, “Are there people who worked hard but still struggled in life? Are there other factors that may impact your ability to succeed outside of your work ethic?” Assumptions are a natural part of thinking but, left unchecked, they can lead to close-mindedness. When you meet new people or find yourself in new situations, pay attention to your expectations. Ask yourself if your preconceived notions shape the way you act. Say, for example, you've never tried pasta with pesto sauce, and you assume you'll hate it. Ask yourself why you assume you would dislike it. Is it because the sauce is green? Is it because you don't like the smell? Maybe you don't have a great reason to make the assumption, and you should give pesto a try! Make the most of your downtime by looking into new information when you have a few free minutes. Try looking online for articles, videos, and podcasts about academic subjects, current events, religions, and international cultures.  Start a new article when you're in line at the bank, for example, or listen to a podcast during your commute. Be sure to look for using reputable sources. There's a lot of false and biased information available online. Look for scholarly articles, reports published by independent third-party organizations, and information from credible sites, like governments, universities, and reputable news bureaus. Choose a polarizing topic and read some newspaper articles or listen to podcasts about it. Look for sources with perspectives that differ from your own. Try to think about the issue the way the other side would. Suppose you want to see a higher minimum wage. As you research the issue, you might read about small business owners who are afraid that higher payroll costs would force them to close. While you...

TL;DR in English: Ask yourself how you formed a belief. Try to notice whenever you make an assumption. Browse online for information about new topics and perspectives. Think of the reasons someone holds an opinion that opposes your own.

The formula is Asector=θ360(π)(r2){\displaystyle A_{sector}={\frac {\theta }{360}}(\pi )(r^{2})}, where Asector{\displaystyle A_{sector}} equals the area of the sector, θ{\displaystyle \theta } equals the central angle of the sector in degrees, and r{\displaystyle r} equals the radius of the circle. This information should be given to you. Make sure you have the area of the sector, not the area for the circle. Substitute the area for the variable Asector{\displaystyle A_{sector}} and the angle for the variable θ{\displaystyle \theta }. This will tell you what fraction of the entire circle the sector represents. To do this, divide both sides of the equation by the fraction or decimal you just calculated. This will isolate the r{\displaystyle r} variable. For a more precise result, use a calculator. You can also round π{\displaystyle \pi } to 3.14. This will give you the radius of the circle.

TL;DR in English: Set up the formula for the area of a sector. Plug the sector’s area and central angle into the formula. Divide the central angle by 360. Isolate (π)(r2){\displaystyle (\pi )(r^{2})}. Divide both sides of the equation by π{\displaystyle \pi }. Take the square root of both sides.

Some heart attacks are sudden and intense and provide no warning signs or tell-tale symptoms. However, in most cases, there are at least subtle clues that usually get rationalized or marginalized. Early warning signs of heart disease include high blood pressure, sensation of chronic heartburn, reduced cardiovascular fitness and a vague feeling of malaise or being unwell. These symptoms may start many days or weeks before the heart muscle gets damaged enough to become dysfunctional.   Symptoms in women are particularly hard to recognize and are ignored or missed even more often. Major risk factors for heart disease, heart attack and stroke include: high blood cholesterol levels, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, cigarette smoking and advancing age (65 years and older).  A heart attack doesn't always lead to cardiac arrest (complete heart stoppage), but cardiac arrest is always indicative of heart attack. Most heart attacks do not occur suddenly or "out of the blue." Instead, they typically start slowly with mild chest pain or discomfort that builds over many hours or even days. The chest pain (often described as intense pressure, squeezing or achiness) is located in the center of the chest and can be constant or intermittent. Other common common symptoms of heart attack include: shortness of breath, cold sweats (with pale or ashen skin), dizziness or lightheadedness, moderate-to-severe fatigue, nausea, abdominal pain and a sensation of severe indigestion.  Not all people who experience heart attacks have the same symptoms or the same severity of symptoms — there's lots of variability. Some people also report feeling a sense of "doom" or "impending death" that is unique to the heart attack experience. Most people experiencing a heart attack (even a mild one) will collapse to the ground, or at least fall against something for support. Other common causes of chest pain don't typically lead to sudden collapse. In addition to the tell-tale symptoms of chest pain, shortness of breath and cold sweats, there are some...

Even if you're sending your letter using email, you want to use a formal business format and address your letter to a specific person – typically the person who presented the original offer, unless they've indicated you should direct correspondence to someone else.  If you're addressing the letter to someone other than the person who presented you with the initial offer – say, because your initial offer was provided by a recruiter or other interviewer on behalf of the person who will actually be doing the hiring – mention the person with whom you spoke by name. Generally, your text should be single-spaced, with a double-space between paragraphs. When you're ready to sign off, use your full name and a closing such as "thank you." You may want to include your phone number under your name if you're not printing the letter on letterhead or sending it from an email address that has a signature line that includes contact information. If you're sending your letter using email, make sure you're using an appropriate email address. If you have a cutesy email address that you use for personal communication, set up another one with a free provider that you can use for more serious, business communications. Begin your letter by thanking the person for the initial offer, and be specific. Include the title of the position and location where you will be working. You might also want to mention job responsibilities if they bear relevance to skills or experience you intend to highlight.  For example, if you were offered a position in the company's offices in New York City, but you live in Chicago, you probably should include the location when you thank them for the offer, especially if you plan to ask them to cover some of your relocation expenses. If the job title is at issue, make sure you list the job title you were offered exactly, so you can ask for it to be changed. Close this first paragraph with a statement that you are excited about working for the company and believe you could contribute a lot, or provide significant...

A round of carrom ends when one player pockets all of his or her pieces, and the queen has been pocketed. You play rounds until one player has reached 29 points. The first player to hit 29 points wins.  Remember, you and your opponent take turns shooting your striker. You can only shoot your striker from within your rectangular boundary. In the event you pocket a piece, you get to continue to play. You can shoot your striker again, and can continue to shoot your striker until you fail to pocket a piece. The queen, or red piece, has to be pocketed by the end of a round. A player must both pocket and "cover" the queen. Covering the queen simply means one player has pocketed the queen following the rules of the game. Under certain circumstances, you can pocket the queen but not "cover" it, and the queen will be returned to the board.  You cannot pocket the queen until you've pocketed at least one piece in your color. In the event you pocket the queen before pocketing any pieces, you have not covered the queen. The queen will be returned to the center of the board. If you pocket the queen after pocketing one of your own pieces, you have successfully covered the queen. The queen will not be returned to the board and you may receive points for the queen at the conclusion of the round. There are fouls in the game of carrom. In the event you or your opponent commits a foul, you are penalized by having one of the pieces in your color returned to the board. The following situations can result in a foul:  If you accidentally pocket a striker, this is a foul. You will also receive a foul if you knock your striker or another piece off the board. If you pocket an opponent's piece, this is a foul. In addition to having one of your pieces returned to the board, pocketing an opponent's piece comes with an additional penalty. If you pocketed and covered the queen earlier in the game, the queen is also returned to the board. If you pocket your final piece before the queen has been pocketed, both the piece you pocketed and the...

If you regularly shave, and are  transitioning into professional waxing, don’t shave for three weeks so your hair can grow out. If you have never removed your vaginal hair, consider trimming it. The ideal length of hair for waxing is about .25 inches (0.64 cm). There are two types of waxes: the bikini (which removes hair from the top and sides of your vagina) and the Brazilian (which removes everything). Decide how much hair you want to remove, and choose the wax that’s right for you. If you’re a beginner, don’t start with the Brazilian, as it can be painful. Instead, ease your way in by getting a few bikini waxes done first. Look for nail and spa salons in your area. One easy way to find places that wax is to call all of the nail salons in your area and ask if any of them do waxing. Ask about their practice, how they ensure that everything is sterile and clean, and how much the wax will cost. Depending on where you live, a professional waxing session can range from $35-$80. Waxing is not a pain-free process, though it is a manageable one. Take one regular dose of your preferred painkiller to prepare for your session. If you have a low pain tolerance, bring another painkiller for after the session. Do not take more than one standard dose before your wax. If it’s your first time getting professionally waxed, you might be uncomfortable or even nervous about being naked from the waist down in front of a stranger -- but you have nothing to worry about! Your waxing technician is a professional.  If you still feel uncomfortable after a few sessions, try listening to music or an audiobook while you get waxed. This can help keep your mind off the situation. If your waxing technician ever makes you feel uncomfortable or does something inappropriate, leave the session as soon as you can and report them to a manager or the police. While nowhere near unmanageable, waxing will probably cause you some pain. Try not to clench your teeth or muscles against it, because that’ll only make the experience worse. Instead, focus on...

TL;DR in English: Don’t shave for three weeks before waxing. Decide what type of wax you want. Find a salon you trust. Take a painkiller or anti-inflammatory drug before your session. Don’t worry about feeling awkward during your session. Exhale as the waxing strip is pulled. Wear comfortable underwear and a skirt or loose-flowing pants. Exfoliate a week after your session.

Casual belts are typically 1.25 to 1.5 inches (3.18 to 3.8 cm) wide. Dress belt are typically 1.25 inches (3.18 cm) wide, and should never be 1.5 inches or more, as that is too casual. Brown, tan and black are the most common belt colors. They are also typical colors of leather.  Generally men's shoes and belt should match. Women may choose to match shoes, belt and other accessories, or use a contrasting color. A tongue buckle allows you to slip a piece of metal through a belt hole to secure it. A military-style belt is usually cloth with a sliding latch.  A military belt is usually bought in a generic size and then trimmed down to the appropriate length at home. Don't forget to heat seal the ends with a lighter after you cut your belt to length. A braided buckle does not need belt holes, since you can slip the tongue inside of the braided strips of leather. Leather or vegan leather is made to stand up to regular wear and tear for years. It can be treated with polish to condition the leather as it ages. Fake leather is likely to wear out before treated leather. You can go a step further and match it to your cuff links or wedding ring as well. If you are looking for a very specific type of belt and not having much luck, you might consider making the belt yourself.

Your brow should start where the pencil meets your brow. Plan to remove any hair between that point and the beginning of your other brow. Angle the pencil so it is in line with the outer side of your pupil.  The place where the pencil touches the brow is where the highest point of your brow arch should be. This is where your eyebrow should end.
