Most toddlers will eat a variety of fruits, so try incorporating them into the daily diet as breakfast and snacks. Use vegetables in every lunch and dinner, and set a good example for your child by eating vegetables yourself as well. Children should have regular sources of lean protein, such as yogurt, fish, chicken, and some whole grains. Work within your child’s preferences but make it clear that protein is an important part of mealtime. Toddlers need fresh, healthful food to achieve and maintain an appropriate weight. If your child often eats take-out or packaged foods packed with fat, salt, sugar, and other non-nutritive ingredients, swap them out for carrot sticks, applesauce, strawberry slices, string cheese, and Cheerios. Toddlers need about half the calories of adults, so size portions accordingly. Try dividing the plate into segments: 1/2 vegetables and/or fruits, 1/4 whole grains, and 1/4 lean protein. Many toddlers love to drink fruit juices, but these are often loaded with calories and limited in nutritional value.  If your child drinks a lot of fruit juice (or any other sweetened drink), swap it out for milk or water. Juice, soda, and other sweetened drinks can add hundreds of calories to your toddler’s diet each day. Do not give your toddler drinks that serve as dietary supplements, such as PediaSure. These drinks are formulated for children with difficulty gaining weight or with restrictive diets. If your child eats well and is overweight, avoid high-calorie toddler drinks of this nature.

TL;DR in English: Focus on fruits and vegetables. Feed your toddler lean protein. Avoid fast food and junk food. Keep portions under control. Eliminate sugary drinks.

This should bring down the swelling, as it slows down blood flow to the area. Either apply ice directly to the pimple or cover it in a thin layer of gauze or towel. Some makeup experts claim that eye drops, at least the ones that reduce redness in the eyes, can be helpful in reducing redness and signs of irritation in acne. Drop a few eye-drops onto a cotton swab and apply as necessary onto the pimple(s). Because cold also helps reduce inflammation in acne, place the Q-Tip soaked in eye-drops into the freezer for an hour before applying. The cold Q-Tip will soothe as it reduces inflammation. Antihistamines suppress the swelling effect in the skin tissue of people. Most of these remedies can be ingested in pill form, but some can be consumed as tea or used as a topical agent. These should offer a reduction in redness. Natural herbal antihistamines include:  Stinging nettle. This may sound weird, because touching nettles in the wild can produce a rash not unlike small pimples. Some doctors, however, recommend taking a freeze-dried preparation of stinging nettle, which is known for its ability to reduce the amount of histamine the body produces.  Coltsfoot may be effective as a natural antihistamine. Europeans have a long history of using the plant to cure skin conditions. The leaves can either be ground up into a paste or coltsfoot extract can be ingested in pill form. Basil may also work as a natural antihistamine. Heat a couple sprigs of basil leaves up under some steam and apply gently to the hives. Basil may help reassure the body that the foreign agent causing the hives is not something it should be fighting.

TL;DR in English: Put ice on the affected area. Use eye-drops on the affected area. Try some natural antihistamines.

If you're nervous about entering a party when you don't know anyone there, it's a good idea to calm yourself before trying to meet anyone. Take a deep breath, breathing all the way down to your belly, and breathing out slowly through your nose. Repeat this slow, deep breathing several times. Make sure your feet are placed firmly against the floor, so that you’re well-grounded.  Bring to mind a positive visualization. For example, imagine yourself looking sleek and sexy on the dance floor, or someone attractive laughing at your sense of humor. Realize that no one’s paying attention to you, so there’s no need to feel self-conscious. After all, most people attending parties are also nervous. Repeat this process anytime you start to feel nervous at the party. You may be feeling terrified, but if you smile you’re more likely to look confident. Even if you don't know anyone else at the party, you can increase your social abilities through smiling. In addition, if you're feeling nervous, smiling can help to improve your mood, and reduce stress.  People often respond to a smiling person with a smile of their own, which will make you feel even better. Even a slight smile will be enough to help your facial muscles relax, and your appearance seem less threatening to other party guests. When you look confident, you’ll start to feel confident. What kind of party is it? Social interactions will vary depending on the reason you’re gathered together. If you’re attending a frat party, you’ll need different social skills than you might at a Christmas carol party held by your mom’s church choir.  Remember that other people may not know one another either. Considering the nature of the party, try to gauge how likely it is that many people may be making their first introductions. It will help you feel at ease to figure out the physical layout of the party, if it’s unfamiliar to you. Figure out where the bathroom is, where the food is, where the drinks are, as a way to get comfortable at the party.  Making your way around the...

The flowchart map allows you to examine a process and see the multiple options for getting it done. The flowchart can be linear and can just flow from one concept to the next, but it can also have multiple elements for examining a variety of outcomes. The starting point can be a process or a problem that needs a solution. Let's use the starting point, "Lamp doesn't turn on". For the problem, "Lamp doesn't turn on," the most typical solution is that the lamp is not plugged in. Just write, "Lamp plugged in?" and connect it with an arrow to "Lamp doesn't turn on". Write a line from "Lamp plugged in?" that says "no" and another that says "yes." If you follow the line that says "no", then the response would be "Plug in lamp". Connect this response to "no" with a line. You've completed one flow of the concept, starting with "Lamp doesn't turn on" to "Plug in lamp". If you follow this "flow," then it should solve the problem. But if the lamp is plugged in, you'll follow "yes" to another option: "Bulb burned out?" This is the next logical solution. From the question, "Bulb burned out?" you'll need to branch out two terms: "yes" and "no" If the answer to "Bulb burned out" is "yes," then you'll need to connect this word to the solution, "Replace bulb", You've completed another flow of the concept, because this should fix the broken lamp. But if it turns out that the bulb is not burned out, you'll have to follow "no" to the last option: "Repair lamp". You have now completed a flowchart for the problem of a broken lamp, which will lead you to one of three solutions: plugging it in, replacing the bulb, or repairing the lamp.

TL;DR in English: Choose your starting point or problem. Write the easiest solution for the problem. Write the two results for this solution. Write the results for the next solution.

Most basement water problems aren't the result of problems in the basement, but the result of poor outdoor drainage. Before you go tearing up your basement, check to make sure you don't have other problems first.  Make sure your gutters are unclogged and free of leaves and other debris, and that water can flow easily through them into the downspouts.  Make sure your downspouts carry water far enough away from the house and that you're not getting back flow. The downspouts should dump water 4–5 feet (1.2–1.5 m) away from the foundation. Make sure the soil around your foundation slopes at least a couple of feet away from the house. If you've got pits that catch the water and force it downward, you might have problems getting water in your basement. Correct these issues before thinking about a sump. Most homes built in the last thirty years have foundations built upon a certain amount of gravel to correct for inconsistencies in the excavation process. If you've got contact with the builder of the home, you should be able to figure this out, or ask neighbors with similar homes whether or not this is the case. You might not know this until you break through the floor, which is another reason you want to explore alternatives before you get in over your head. You'll want to place the sump near a wall in the basement, since the sump pump discharge will need to exit the basement and travel at least 10 feet (3.0 m) outside to discharge.  Look for a spot that will be easy to work in, and where you can punch a hole through a rim joist to reach outside. Stay at least 8" away from the foundation wall, to avoid hitting any footings. Make sure you're not going to cut into the waterline. If the water enters your home through the wall, you'll be fine, but check the building codes in your area to make sure where the line will be if it comes in under the home. Typically, the pipes will run from the street, 4–6 feet (1.2–1.8 m) away from the sewer pipe. Leave a 3–4 inch (7.6–10.2 cm) gap around the liner to make it easier to fit...

TL;DR in English: Check out your basement during a good rain. Determine if you've got a gravel foundation under your concrete floor. Look to see if you have a good location for a sump. Trace the outline of the sump liner on the floor.

Your doctor can collect blood samples to test for chikungunya and other mosquito-borne diseases. You should see your doctor if you experience any of the following:  Fever for more than five days or above 103 °F (39°C) Dizziness (possibly due to a neurological issue or dehydration) Cold fingers or toes (Raynaud's) Bleeding from mouth or under skin (this can be Dengue) Rash Joint pain, redness, stiffness, or swelling Low urine output (this can be from dehydration that can lead to kidney damage) Your doctor will take blood samples to send to labs. Several tests or methods will be run on the samples for diagnosis. ELISA (enzyme-linked immunoassay) will look for specific antibodies against the virus. These antibodies normally develop toward the end of the first week of illness and peak around three to weeks lasting up to two months. If they are negative, your doctor may repeat the blood test to see if they have risen.  Viral cultures will also look for growth. These are usually used within the first 3 days of illness, when the virus is rapidly growing.  RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction) methods use virus-specific gene coding proteins to replicate specific genes of chikungunya. If it is chikungunya, then the lab will see higher than normal chikungunya genes displayed on a computerized graph. There is no approved/specific treatment or cure for this virus nor a vaccine to prevent you from getting it. Treatment is purely symptom management. The World Health Organization recommends that you start home care treatment by resting. This will provide relief and time for your body to recover. Rest in an environment that is not damp or too hot, which could aggravate your joint symptoms. Apply a cold pack to reduce pain and inflammation. You can use a bag of frozen vegetables, packaged steak, or an ice pack. Wrap the frozen back in a towel and apply it to painful areas. Avoid applying a frozen pack or ice directly to your skin, which could cause tissue damage. If you're experiencing fever and joint pain,...

Before leaving, make sure that your cat is ready. Groom him by brushing his fur and, if need be, clip his front claws so that he does not scratch you or the vet. To help your cat stay clean and comfortable, be prepared.  Pack plastic bags for waste disposal, and mild disinfecting wipes and small towels for cleanup. Pack a large towel to cover the carrier while among crowds or in the waiting room. Pack your cat's favorite treats and some of his favorite toys. You can even place one inside the carrier to help him feel even safer. If you are driving to the vet's office, obey all traffic laws, maintain the speed limit, and avoid sharp turns. If the trip is long, make sure she has an area inside where she can relieve herself. The shredded newspapers work well as litter while you're on the road. Bring extra newspaper. Cover the carrier, or keep the carrier covered, with the towel once you are in the waiting room.  Do not take your cat out of the carrier unless it needs to be cleaned. Other animals in the waiting room might incite your cat to pounce at or scratch them. If your cat seems happy without the towel, then do not use it but keep in on hand, just in case. Once your cat survives the waiting room and is called in to the see the vet, it is important that you continue to soothe any anxiety she may feel.  Continue to speak soothingly to her, especially if the carrier is covered. She needs to know that you are close. Ask the vet for the best way to remove your cat from the carrier. Once inside, she might be just as afraid to come out as she was to go in. Very gently and while speaking soothingly, reach inside the carrier to remove your cat. Set her on the table, if you are instructed do so. Follow the vet's instructions for how to handle your cat. If asked to hold him down firmly, do so without undue pressure. If you are unsure how to do this, ask the vet or her assistant (if present) for help.

TL;DR in English: Prepare your cat for his visit. Bring necessary items. Gently carry your cat into the office. Keep your cat comfortable during visit. Remove the cat from the carrier.

Both you and your partner are going to have to do some compromising for the relationship to work. Figure out what’s important to you and communicate about that. Keep in mind, however, that it’s important to know the difference between healthy and unhealthy compromises.  For example, if dance is important to you, you could say: “Dance is important to me, and it would mean a lot if you could come to my recitals.” You should do the same for your partner in return by supporting their hobbies. If they attend your dance recitals, then cheer them on during their sports game. You may have to compromise on dates. For example, you could see his choice of movie,  but then go to the restaurant that you want. This one is crucial for a healthy relationship. If you’ve committed to being someone’s girlfriend, that generally means that you’ve committed to being romantic only with them until you break up. Avoid flirting or otherwise being romantic with other people.  Some people prefer open relationships where it’s okay to be romantic or sexual with more than one person. This takes a lot of maturity and communication from all parties. Never assume a relationship is open without talking about it first. Though flirting with someone else is not technically cheating, it can make some people jealous. Avoid doing this in front of your partner out of respect. If you find yourself tempted to cheat, you may not be ready for a relationship, or this may not be the right person for you right now. If you like someone enough to be their girlfriend, you hopefully like them enough to be their friend, too. Friends know how to have fun together and support each other. Keep those things at the center of your relationship, even though it’s now romantic.  Ask your partner how their day was. Check in with them when they’re sick or struggling. Send them cute notes and make sure they know you care. Keep doing things you enjoy together. Just because you’re a couple doesn’t mean that you have to spend all of your time making out.

When you have to pass over a section of hair several times to straighten it, unnecessary damage occurs. To avoid this, set your flat iron to the correct temperature for your hair type and allow it to completely preheat before using it.  For natural hair, set you flat iron between 300℉ and 350℉. For fine hair, set your straightener at 360℉ or below. For medium or wavy hair, keep your straightening iron between 360℉ and 380℉. For thick and coarse hair, set your flat iron between 380 and 410℉. While your flat iron preheats, take a moment to separate your hair into manageable sections. Part your hair in half, from the top of your forehead to the base of your skull. Depending on the thickness of your hair, divide each half into 2 or more layers. Clip the layers to keep them separate. Unclip one of the lower layers of hair. Grab a ½ inch to 2 inch section of hair and place the flat iron ½ inch from the roots. Smoothly and swiftly pull the straightener down the length of the hair. If necessary, run the straightener down the section of hair again. Repeat this process on the lower layers of your hair. Put a fine-tooth comb below the flat iron and pull it down with the flat iron so you don't accidentally go over the same section of hair twice. Unclip 1 of the 2 top layers of hair. Grab a ½ inch to 2 inch section of hair and pull the it away from your scalp. Place the straightener as close to the roots as possible. Quickly pull the flat iron outwards and down the length of the hair. If necessary, straighten this section of hair again. Repeat this process on the remaining hair in the top layers.. Complete your sleek look by coating your straight locks with a shine serum. In addition to adding a gorgeous sheen to your hair, shine serums control frizz and smooth strands. When applying this product, follow the instructions on the bottle.

Exercise is great for you both physically and mentally. You are doing something good for your body, and you are focusing your mind on something other than the guy. The endorphins produced from exercising will also boost your mood. Choose a method of exercise that you enjoy most. It could be running, yoga, basketball, or even taking a nice walk through the park. Ask a friend to exercise with you. Meeting new people and being exposed to new activities is a great way to take your mind off of the situation. Figure out ways to fill up the time, and it will become easier to move on. Join a sports team, take an art class, or volunteer within your community. Use this time to learn about and practice something you enjoy. It’s good to spend some time reflecting, but don’t let your emotions keep you holed up at home. Plan a trip to the park, beach, or go to a museum. You could even do something as simple as a picnic in the park with friends.. You don’t have to do this if you don’t feel you’re ready. But if you’re up to it, the best way to get over a guy is to see who else is out there. You could talk to a guy at a class you attend, try out an online dating service, or have a friend introduce you to someone. You don’t have to continue talking to anyone that you don’t like, and it’s perfectly okay to decide you need more time after you give it a try.

Consider this if you have books ranging from trade paperbacks to oversize art albums. Place the tallest books on the lowest shelf, placing smaller and smaller books as you move upward. This creates a tidy, organized appearance. On some bookcases, this is a necessity to adapt to the height of each shelf. This system looks great, but are best used if you have only one bookcase. In larger collections, they can make a book difficult to find. In addition, you need to consider that you may have to split books from a series, when they do not have the same colour. Here are a few sorting systems based on spine color:  One color per shelf (a blue shelf, a green shelf, and so on). If you're having trouble filling a shelf, wrap some of the books in kraft paper.  A gradual "rainbow" flowing from one color to the next, or from the most saturated colors to pastels. A pattern that creates a flag or other simple image when the whole bookcase is filled. This is time-consuming, but impressive. This is a great system if you consult your books frequently for research or reference. Keep the ones you use daily on the shelf at eye height. and a couple shelves below, where you can easily see and reach them. Books you only use occasionally go on the lowest shelves. Books that you almost never open go on the shelves above your head. If you have enough books to fill two or three bookcases, fill the most visible bookcase with the important books. If you have an even larger collection, this system may not work well. If you have a large number of books you'd like to read, why not give them their own shelf? Keep an empty shelf on the same bookcase so you can slot the finished books back easily. You might want to revisit your organization once you're through your reading list, but this can be convenient in the meantime. Fill the top shelf with books you read in early childhood, and move down adding books in the rough order you discovered them. This one works best for books with strong associated memories – and for people with strong memories...

The first step in getting to know a potential friend is to strike up a conversation. Believe it or not, very interesting conversations can start up with, "The weather is sure cold!". Another way is to find out a little bit about them and their interests. Once you get started on an interesting topic, the rest will come naturally.  Try making a general comment or asking a question about something generic, just to break the ice. For example, "Great party, huh?" or "How do you know John?" Try to listen more than you talk. Show that you're interested in what they have to say. Even if you find their speech boring, try to appear concentrated in order to not hurt the other's feelings. Find out about their interests and hobbies. If you can find something you have in common, the conversation will flow more freely. If you hit it off with someone, make sure to get their contact information before you part ways, you'll need it if you want to organize to meet up with them again.  Get their phone number or email address, or ask if they're on Facebook. It doesn't matter as long as you have a way of reaching out to them. Be sure to give them your contact details too. They might just invite you to do something fun. Here is where a lot of people falter. It's fun to meet people once and make friends with them on Facebook afterwards, but you won't develop a true friendship unless you take the next step and invite them to hang out. Hang outs are not necessarily about going to Starbucks and buying a Coffee Espresso for both of you!

Exposure therapy is when a person is exposed to the thing they fear the most, but within a safe and supportive setting. In the case of ASAD, you would have to face your fears of separation. To do this, you would very gradually expose yourself to the anxiety provoking situation—such as being away from your home or loved ones—for short periods of time. A psychologist or trained therapist can develop a specific exposure therapy program that can help you overcome your anxiety. If your doctor or therapist decides that exposure therapy is a good idea for you, and you are ready to try it, there are several techniques you can use. For instance, you might start just by thinking about being separated from your home or loved ones, and describe how you feel. Later, you might practice being separated from your loved ones or being away from home for periods of time that increase in length, and then discuss how you felt. Even short-term exposure therapy treatments (three to six sessions) can help ease your anxiety. If your therapist approves, asking your loved one to help you can make the therapy process easier. To begin, have your loved one go into a different room while you practice calming techniques, such as breathing exercises, or work on banishing anxious thoughts. Gradually increase the distance and time that you spend away from your loved one.

Figure out where you were bitten. Look for a small, itchy, red mound. Look for swelling. Check for bee and wasp stings. Look for ticks. Check for head lice. Check for head lice. Check for head lice. Check for head lice. Check for head lice

Different insects live in different places, and there are certain circumstances where it is more likely to be bitten by each of them.  If you were outdoors, and perhaps near a wooded area, you were probably bitten by a mosquito, tick, or spider. If you were near food or garbage, you may have been bitten by a fly, or stung by a bee or wasp. If you were indoors, sitting somewhere or playing with a pet, it may be fleas. In the United States, scorpions are only found in the South and Southwest, particularly Texas and Arizona. Scorpion stings are extremely painful, and most of the time they are easy to rule out. If you were bitten in the southeastern part of the United States by a fly-like creature whose sting feels like a mosquito bite, it may be a deer fly. If you were bitten in your bed while sleeping, it may be bedbugs. If you were bitten on the beach, particularly in the southeast, it may be sand fleas. This is the most common visible symptom of an insect bite, and depending on other symptoms could be from a variety of insects.  A single bite mark is probably from a mosquito or fly. You may notice a tiny bite mark in the center of the mound of a mosquito bite.  Flea bites are a number of small, itchy mounds grouped together. You will probably find them in areas where your clothes fit tightly to your body, such as around your waist. Bedbug bites will be itchy red bumps, maybe with a blister, grouped in rows of two or three. Other types of bites or stings involve the swelling of the skin around the bite area.  Fire ant bites will cause swelling (as much as 1/2 inch) and will fill with pus. They may blister over after a few days.  Scorpion stings can cause swelling, as well as redness of the skin and pain or numbness in the area. Scorpion stings can be very dangerous, and they make most people very ill. Call emergency services or seek medical treatment right away if you suspect a scorpion sting. Stings from these insects will cause an immediate sharp or burning pain and swelling. They will leave a red welt...

TL;DR in English: Figure out where you were when bitten. Look for a small, itchy, red mound. Look for swelling. Check for bee and wasp stings. Look for ticks. Check for head lice.  Rule out serious spider bites. Look for the insect.

If you’ve just gotten paint on your skin and it hasn’t yet had time to dry, treat the area right away. Once the paint has begun to set up, it will harden and solidify in place, making it much harder to remove. Paint that is still wet should wash away without much trouble. This is especially important for bigger spills, as they will be more unsightly and harder to get out once they dry. Run some warm water over the affected area. The heat of the water will loosen paint that has begun to dry, and much of it should wash away on its own. Rinsing the skin also weakens the paint’s hold as the skin grows slippery.  You may be able to completely get rid of fresh paint spots this way. Acrylic paint is a water-based emulsion, meaning they are designed to be soluble in water. Mix a mild hand soap or liquid detergent under with the water until it creates a lather. Wash the area thoroughly, applying firm pressure with the hand or washcloth. Regular dish soaps are ideal for this type of job, as they contains abrasive elements and compounds that cut through dried-on stains. If the soap and water successfully take out the paint stain on the first try, dry the area and call it a day. Otherwise, you may need to make another pass until the remaining paint fades and washes away. Try soaping up again. The surfactants in the soap combined with repeated scrubbings should be able to get out whatever’s left.

TL;DR in English: Treat the paint spot immediately. Rinse the spot with warm water. Use a mild soap to wash the area. Repeat and dry.

Some exchange-traded funds (ETFs) aim to track silver and gold prices and are generally bought through a stockbroker. They are much like derivative contracts that track prices, but they differ in that you will not own the underlying metal assets.   Two examples of ETFs are Market Vectors Gold Miners and Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners.  The Market Vectors Gold Miners ETF attempts to replicate (before expenses and fees) the yield performance and price of the New York Stock Exchange Arca Gold Miners Index. The portfolio contains gold mining companies of all sizes from around the world. The Market Vectors Junior Gold Miners ETF debuted in 2009. This ETF has become quite  popular among investors seeking to have indirect access to gold assets. Although similar to the Gold Miners, the Junior Gold Miners focuses on smaller companies involved in an ongoing search for new sources of gold. Because these companies are less established, there is more risk involved.    Term of Investment: Short term. There is a fee assessed each year that deducts from the amount of gold backing your investment, making this an expensive way to invest.  Nature of Investment: Medium risk. Because a typical ETF investment can be short- term if you prefer, risk can be minimized. Use the same broker you would use to buy stock, a mutual fund, or shares in a gold ETF, such as GLD and IAU on the New York Stock Exchange. A gold exchange-traded fund is designed to track the price of gold while maintaining the liquidity of a stock.  Note that gold exchange-traded funds do not give you the ability to physically control the gold. Therefore, some gold advocates believe this is an inferior way to own the commodity.   Another disadvantage is that ETFs trade like stocks, and you may have to pay a commission to buy and sell on the exchange. Moreover, any capital gains you realize must be reported for tax purposes.

TL;DR in English:


Pick a feeder that keeps the squirrels out. Hang the feeder on a wire between trees or poles to put it out of reach. Place a slinky around a pole to keep a squirrel from climbing up. Rub the pole with shortening or petroleum jelly to make it unclimbable. Spike your birdseed with cayenne pepper so the squirrels won't like it.

To create a leather cuff, you will need strips of tooled leather, leather glue, a leather needle, waxed linen thread, and a button snap or clasp for the ends of the bracelet. Use a ruler to measure a strip of leather 2 inches (5.08 cm) wide, by the length of your wrist plus one inch. Cut the leather to size with a pair of sharp scissors or utility knife. Attach your cut and sized leather to a larger, tooled piece of leather with leather glue. Use your fingers to smooth out any wrinkles, and allow it to dry overnight. Adding a second layer of leather to your bracelet will give a more finished look. Trim the edge off the tooled leather to make it the same size as your original strip. You should now be left with a nearly completed double-sided leather strip. Use a leather needle and waxed linen thread to stitch the cuff together. Any stitch is appropriate; the stitching is simply securing the edges of the leather and giving a more sophisticated look. Use your needle and thread or the leather glue to secure your clasps to either end. With the completion of this step, you're finished!

TL;DR in English: Get your supplies prepared. Measure and cut your leather. Layer your leather. Cut the bracelet to size. Stitch the edges. Add your clasps.

With dial-up internet, you may be only limited to browsing websites that are mostly text and/or images without many add ons and features. Because dial-up internet has fallen out of use in favor of broadband internet, it's not common to see instructions for connecting to dial-up internet anymore.  If you want to do some very serious internet browsing, it will be best to find a Wi-Fi hotspot in a public location. However, dial-up is still commonplace in a few rural areas, which means that you may find yourself needing to connect to it. Dial-up internet requires the use of a phone line, and can only connect one person per phone at a time. If somebody else is already connected, and/or the phone line is being used to make a call, you will be unable to connect until the other person disconnects or hangs up. Additionally, most new computers do not have the components to connect to dial-up; you may have to purchase an external USB modem so your computer can connect. Oftentimes, places with dial-up internet will have two phone lines - one for the phone, and one for the modem. However, if the modem isn't often used, it may be unplugged, or there may only be one phone line. Make sure that the phone cable is plugged into both the phone jack on the wall, and the plug on the modem. Using another phone line, insert one end of the second phone cable into the modem and the other end into the computer's modem jack (or the converter). Make sure that you don't accidentally plug the phone cable into the ethernet plug by mistake. The phone jack on the computer should be noted by a small phone next to it. You'll need to manually set up the dial-up connection on the computer. From there, configure the modem settings. If this is your first time connecting to the dial-up source, you'll most likely need to configure the modem's network settings. While the process is slightly different for every OS, you'll need to enter the same information: the dial-up phone number, a username, and a password. The settings paths that you'll need to...

TL;DR in English: Understand that dial-up internet is no longer widely supported and it will be very difficult to do certain activities on the internet with this type of connection. Ensure that you can connect to dial-up. Plug in the modem to the phone jack. Connect the modem to the computer. Access your computer's network settings. Connect your computer's connection to the modem. Test out your internet connection. Troubleshoot if you can't connect.

If you're just feeding small birds, you can choose one that has a cage around the feeder. The holes are small enough for the birds to fit through, but the squirrels can't squeeze through. Another option is to place a dome-shaped squirrel buffer on the bottom. It curves down from the feeder, making it difficult for the squirrel to climb up a pole. You can also place one on top curving over the feeder if it's hanging from a pole above. String several empty thread spools or pieces of PVC pipe on either side of the feeder. Even if the squirrel climbs the wire down to the feeder, the spools or pipe will spin and likely cause it to fall off. Pick thin, slippery wire or thread. Fishing line works well for this purpose. Make sure there are no branches near the feeder that the squirrel can jump from. They can jump 8 to 10 feet (2.4 to 3.0 m) horizontally. Attach the slinky to the pole at the top of the pole. When the squirrel tries to climb the pole, it will grab the slinky. The slinky will slide down, landing the squirrel back on the ground. Some squirrels learn to outsmart this trick, though. Often, the squirrel won't even attempt to climb the pole because it feels sticky. However, if a squirrel does try to climb it, it will just slide back down the pole. Sprinkle cayenne pepper flakes or powder into the birdseed, making sure to get it all through the seed. Birds can't taste the heat of this spice, as they don't have the receptors. However, squirrels can, and they don't like it.  They may get into your birdseed a few times, but they'll soon learn that it doesn't taste good. You can also use safflower seeds for the birds instead of regular bird feed, as squirrels don't like these seeds.

Use a square paper napkin. Place the knife on the napkin diagonally. Use a napkin band to hold the silverware in place. Tie a string or ribbon around the napkin for added decoration.

Disable animations. Determine which apps use the most resources. Change power settings. Change Windows indexing. Optimize your PC’s hard drives.

You can use any silverware or paper napkins you like. You can choose to use napkins that are all white, solid colored, or patterned. Just make sure they are square shaped and large enough to hold your silverware.  Make sure your paper napkins are high quality and durable. You do not want them to rip while folding. Avoid cocktail napkins that are only 9 1⁄2 inches (24 cm) square. Use lunch or dinner napkins, which are typically 10 to 12 inches (25 to 30 cm) square, and large enough to hold standard size silverware. To begin, put your napkin flat on the table. Then, place your knife on the napkin so that it lies diagonally. The point of the knife should be just slightly past the corner point, about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm). Where you place your knife is very important, as this how far your cutlery will stick out of the napkin roll when you’re finished. Make sure the knife doesn't stick out too far, or your silverware may fall out of the napkin. If you’re worried about your silverware roll unraveling, hold it in place with a paper napkin band. You can find napkin bands in a variety of colors online or in stores. Most are self-adhesive, so all you need to do is place it tightly around the completed napkin roll and secure it in place. If you’re using napkin rolls for a wedding or other special event, you can find some online stores that allow you to customize your napkin bands. Add your personal style to the napkin roll by tying a ribbon or string around it. You can tie the ribbon or string in a simple knot, or make a bow, depending on your personal preference. If you used a napkin band to hold the napkin in place, you can tie the string or ribbon around the center of the band.  Match your silverware display to the current season or occasion. For example, for a graduation party, wrap silverware in a white napkin and a red ribbon to look like a rolled diploma. You can place all of your rolled silverware in a basket for a nice silverware display at a buffet.

TL;DR in English: Obtain cutlery and a square paper napkin. Place the knife on the napkin diagonally. Use a napkin band to hold the silverware in place. Tie a string or ribbon around the napkin for added decoration.

While most everyone experiences nights of not being “in the mood”, disorders occur when problems occur regularly and impact the experience of sex. Think about when the problems occur and how they influence the experience of sex. The following are 4 different types of disorders:   Desire disorder: This occurs when you have little or no interest in sex for an ongoing amount of time. For women, things like contraceptives can greatly lower or eliminate desire.   Arousal disorder: Arousal disorder occurs when you want to have sex, yet your body does not respond.  Orgasm disorder: Your body and emotions may be engaged in sexual activity, yet you are unable to climax, which can leave you feeling frustrated.  Pain disorder: Pain disorder occurs when any part of sexual activity is painful, particularly intercourse. A lack of orgasm is called anorgasmia. Your provider may ask you questions about psychological and emotional factors that may cause anorgasmia, such as sexual inhibition, lack of experience, feelings of guilt or anxiety, or a history of sexual trauma or abuse.  Some medications or chronic diseases can cause problems with arousal and orgasm. Sometimes anorgasmia can be helped with sufficient stimulation. Stress if often a major culprit for sexual dysfunction. However, medical and psychological factors may affect sexual satisfaction. Diagnoses such as diabetes, heart disease, neurological disorders, and hormone imbalances can also cause sexual dysfunction. Medication side-effects, drugs, and alcohol can also influence sex. If you’re above the age of 65, the likelihood of experiencing lower sexual response is increased. There are some sexual problems that can result from psychological causes. These can include having poor body image, mood disorders, relationship problems, or past sexual trauma. Psychological causes can result in a lowered libido, decreased desire or arousal, failure to achieve orgasm, or a lack of sensitivity in the genitals. Factors such as inadequate sex education, religious beliefs,...

TL;DR in English: Look into the categories of sexual disorder. Identify difficulties with orgasm. Identify the medical causes of sexual dysfunction. Discuss psychological causes. Take sociocultural and economic factors into account. Rule out asexuality. Discuss the problems with your healthcare provider.

Address the concern as soon as possible. Talk to your family without your spouse present. Advocate for your spouse. Get your family’s point of view. Use “I” language. Avoid nitpicking your family’s behavior.

Solve an anagram by rearranging the letters of a word to reveal the hint, which, along with the definition, will help you find the clue’s answer. As with the previous clue, “edict” becomes “cited” after you shuffle the letters in the wordplay around.  Spot an anagram by looking for words that indicate change or modifications. Common anagram indicator words include “transfer,” “cook,” “dress,” “out,” “off,” “moved,” or “lost.” The words you will need to jumble will be located either directly before or after the indicator word. For example, the following clue is an anagram: “Dress suiting a saint.” “Saint” is the definition and “dress suiting a” is the wordplay. “Dress” indicates that this is an anagram because it implies change. Since there are no words preceding “dress,” you know that the words that follow it, “suiting a,” are the words that need to be rearranged. “Suiting a” can be reshuffled to reveal “Ignatius,” a saint! Anagrams are often the longest words in the crossword puzzle. Charades are formed by joining parts of words from the clue together to create a new word. Charades do not usually have indicator words, but typically contain words such as “has,” “with,” “and,” or similar conjunctions.   You’ll often need to think in terms of synonyms to know which words to join together. For example, in the following clue, “wave cereal bowl,” “wave” is the definition. By process of elimination, you know you are working with the words “cereal” and “bowl.” If you look for synonyms, you’ll get “bran” (for cereal) and “dish” (for bowl).  Using the charades method of combining words, you’ll get “brandish,” which is the answer because it is a synonym of your definition, “wave.” In addition to synonyms, you may need to work with word abbreviations in order to solve charade clues. For example, “place on bottom of sack:” “Pl” is the abbreviation for “place” and “under” is a synonym for “on bottom.” Combine the two to get “plunder,” which also means “sack” (your definition). Identify a hidden-words clue by recognizing...

TL;DR in English: Rearrange the clue's letters when dealing with anagram clues. Join parts of words together to find the answer with charade clues. Combine letters from different words to answer clues with hidden words.

If your spouse has complained to you about your family, you want to work to solve the problem as quickly as you can. Ignoring or delaying addressing the issue can result in a resentful spouse.  Ignoring the problem will make your spouse dislike being around your family even more, and it will also start to impact your relationship. Let your partner know how and when you plan to address the issue. For example, you could say, “I’m going to bring this up when my mom and I have lunch next week.” Having a concrete plan of action will ease your spouse’s mind and will hold you accountable to follow through. Bring your concerns to a family member (perhaps one who could share the information with other family members as necessary) on behalf of your spouse. Your family has more experience in relating to you than your spouse. You also understand your family’s dynamics better than your spouse, and you have a better idea how to interact with them.  Have a conversation with your family member over the phone or in person. Let them know how your spouse feels. Listen to your family member’s perspective. Keep in mind, your family member may have no idea that their behavior has hurt your spouse. Ask for suggestions on how your family member thinks the situation could improve. For example, “What do you think we could do to help Carlos feel more included?” Explain how your spouse views the situation. Share your spouse’s feelings and give any background information you think is important.  Present a united front and indicate that this is causing you pain as well. For example, “Lena feels that you don’t like her after you said she wasn’t a good mother for not taking more maternity leave. She called you out on it, and both of us think you have been cold to her ever since. Did you know she only got two months of paid leave? It hurts both of us that you said that about her. It is not true, and we feel it was mean-spirited.” Find out if there is an issue you might need to address with your partner. Your spouse may not be an innocent...

No matter what kind of surgery you are going to have, it is important to be knowledgeable about all of its aspects. Knowing the significant details of your surgery can help you prepare mentally and emotionally.  Your doctor/surgeon should provide you with a lot of detail, so don't worry too much about doing extensive independent research. Usually, most details of your surgery will be explained during your first appointment. As an autoimmune disease, lupus affects you systemically. This means that when you are considering an upcoming surgery, it's important to take into consideration the various organs that can be affected indirectly. Your primary care physician and any specialists you have will know the details of your lupus, and can inform your surgeon of any additional accommodations he or she must make for your disease.  For example, if you have a joint condition, your rheumatologist will give you a recommendation letter about all the drugs you have taken because some drugs may interact during surgery. For other affected systems like the heart (cardiologist), kidney (nephrologist), digestive tract (gastroenterologist), and nervous system (neurologist), doctors will give recommendation letters, including the details of laboratory tests, drugs, and any prior interventions. Some medications can interact, causing harmful effects during or after surgery. Informing your surgeon of any over-the-counter medications or prescriptions you take will allow them to monitor and prepare for any potential drug interactions.  All medicines including vitamins and herbal supplements should be taken down in notes including the dosage and the frequency on how many times you’re taking them per day. Additionally, take note of any dietary supplements that may not immediately come to mind as medications.  Vitamins and supplements such as vitamin E, gingko biloba, and garlic can increase your risk for bleeding. Herbal supplements such as Kava, St. John’s wort, and Valerian can interfere with the medicines that are used for...

rite the melody first. It's very difficult to set pre-existing rhymes and words to a melody after the fact. Most songwriters find it much easier to compose the melody and then go about composing a set of lyrics that fit in with the tone and the structure of the song.  Many songwriters find it helpful to sing nonsense syllables or whistle to figure out the melody and establish a base form for you to fill with words. Go with whatever technique works best for your process. Bob Dylan, considered by some to be one of the greatest songwriters ever, often wrote words first. Give it a shot. A popular and important technique in country music especially, a good song will often "turn" a phrase, or use a line to mean more than one thing throughout the course of a song, when used at different times. In Kacey Musgraves' "Blowing Smoke," the phrase "blowing smoke" is used at different times to refer specifically to waitresses on break smoking cigarettes, and also to boasting of quitting someday, referring to both the job and the habit. It's an effective technique that changes the meaning but not the words. Avoid overloading your lines with too many words, making your song a tongue-twister that can be difficult to sing. As you compose, use words judiciously, leaving out more than you put in. A simple and quick rhyme that's simple can be much more effective in a song than a lot of "poetic" words. In "The Butcher," Leonard Cohen makes a brief and devastating rhyme out of drug use: I found a silver needle. I put it into my arm. / It did some good, did some harm. Novelist and Beat writer William Burroughs pioneered a method of writing that involved cutting up rhyming words and phrases and throwing them into a bag. Try doing the same and removing phrases at random to collage together a tapestry of weirdness for your song. Music is amenable to that kind of writing. The Rolling Stones employed this technique for their song "Casino Boogie":  One last cycle, thrill freak Uncle Sam / Pause for business, so you'll understand.

TL;DR in English: . Learn to "turn" a phrase. Use as few words as possible. Try automatic forms.

During white’s opening move, they’ll usually move a pawn to e4 to take control of the center of the board. Take the pawn that’s in front of the bishop on the queen’s side and move it forward 1 space to c5. You can capture pieces on either b4 or d4, which prevents your opponent from moving another piece to the center. The white player will usually move the knight on their king’s side to f3 to defend the d4 and e5. After white’s second play, move the pawn in front of your queen 1 space forward so it’s on d6. That way, you’re protecting the first pawn you moved as well as defending the e5 square in the center of the board so your opponent can’t move there without getting captured. White’s next move is usually moving their queen’s pawn to d4 so they control 2 squares in the center. Move the pawn on c5 diagonally toward your opponent’s pawn on d4 and remove it from the board. While your pawn’s now at risk for an attack, you and your opponent now have even control over the center of the board. Your opponent will typically capture the pawn you just moved with their knight so they have control over the center again. Take the knight on g8, on the king’s side of the board, and move it to f6. With your knight there, you now have pressure on your opponent’s pawn at e4 and the empty square at d5. The white player will want to defend the pawn so you can’t capture it, so they’ll move their queen’s knight to c3. That way, if you capture their pawn, they can capture your knight. Move your knight from b8 to c6 so it can access the center of the board. From this position, your opponent may capture the knight, but they will put themselves at risk of being captured by a pawn.  You may also move the pawn at a7 to a6 to help defend your king if you’d like. You could also move your pawn at g7 to g6 so you can move the king’s bishop out of the back row. That way, you can castle on the king’s side.

TL;DR in English: Move your pawn to c5 to assert control over the d4 space. Put the queen’s pawn on d6 to protect the center squares. Capture the pawn at d4 with your pawn from c5. Move the king’s knight to f6 to put pressure on the center. Develop your queen’s knight to c6 to force your opponent to attack.

Familiarize yourself with basic horse body language. Always be aware of where the horses are. Create an inviting rather than demanding presence before you approach. Approach the horse diagonally from the front whenever possible. If you have to approach from the rear, approach at an angle. Use your voice to let the horse know you're approaching.

You may be so busy dealing with a serious break-up, a job loss, or another significant event in your life that you don't have time to shower or get more than a few hours of sleep a night. However, if you want to be mentally strong, then you have to be physically able, too. If your body is in a funk or you're just feeling unkempt, then you'll be even less equipped to deal with the challenges. No matter how awful you're feeling, you need to make an effort to shower, brush your teeth, sleep, and get into a normal routine, so that you can start feeling as "normal" as you can. Make sure to make time for mental breaks when you're caring for yourself, too. Studies show that taking mental breaks, whether you're just daydreaming or closing your eyes and listening to a song that you love, can help ward off those stress chemicals and will prevent you from feeling overwhelmed. Your self-esteem depends on, among other things, how you value yourself. It's important to form a positive perspective about yourself and about life in general to ensure resilience. In acquiring competencies and responsibilities, you nourish your self-esteem, so it is important to get involved in life and not withdraw into yourself and feel threatened. If you feel that you are worthless, then you will feel incapable of tackling challenges.  Use self-enhancement by paying close attention to your positive qualities, while minimizing your negative ones. You can begin by making a list of everything you like about yourself. Seek value through using your talents and abilities to their fullest, be it in a professional, volunteer, business, home front, or other capacity. Learn new abilities and skills as often as you can. This will strengthen your self-esteem and can also ward off fears. For example, if you're afraid your children might be hurt some day, take a basic first aid course to reduce your sense of fear and to increase your confidence in being able to cope should something happen. Workshops, seminars, courses, etc., are all good ways to improve...

Ask yourself if you ever put up walls to avoid getting hurt. Opening up to someone can feel risky, and it’s okay if you’ve ever been afraid to let someone get too close. Falling in love involves making yourself vulnerable, and understanding your defenses is the first step to lowering them.  If you’ve had relationships in the past, think about times when you avoided getting close to your partner. For instance, maybe you didn't tell them how much you liked them out of fear that they wouldn't feel the same. It’s tough to think about defense mechanisms, especially since they’re usually related to getting hurt in the past. Try to be honest with yourself, and remember that everyone has insecurities and fears. Remember that no one’s perfect, and accept yourself for who you are. Embracing yourself can help make it easier to open up to a romantic partner and fall in love with them.  That said, there’s always room to grow. For instance, you can't make yourself taller or shorter, but you can work on eating healthy and exercising to be your healthiest self. Remind yourself that you’re a great person, and you have a lot of wonderful qualities! Look in the mirror and tell yourself, “You’re a good person, so don’t be afraid to be yourself! Let your guard down, and allow yourself to fall in love.” Everyone has an inner critic, and sometimes self-critical thoughts can become irrational and unrealistic. If you notice yourself thinking things like “You’re no good” or “They’ll never love you,” stop the thought process and remind yourself to stay objective. Playing hard-to-get and withholding feelings are common practices in today’s dating world. However, it’s better to be honest about your feelings. While you don’t have to share every little detail on the first date, try to be authentic instead of playing games.  For instance, if you went on a date with someone and had a good time, tell them. If you want to text, “Thanks for a fun night! I had a great time,” do it. Don’t feel like you have to wait 3 days before calling or...

TL;DR in English: Identify your defense mechanisms. Accept things about yourself that you can't change. Redirect overly critical thoughts. Resist the urge to play games. Don’t be afraid of rejection.

It's very important to be able to tell the difference between a happy, inviting horse and an alarmed or frustrated one when you approach the animal. Look for the following signs:   Comfortable signs (if you see these, proceed):  Having relaxed, "soft" eyes that aren't staring at you Turning his head or front quarters toward you Licking his lips Ears pricked towards you.

It takes only a moment for a horse to run up behind you and possibly rear up on you. Make sure you can see where the horses are and keep watch.  Horses can get startled by almost anything. If a horse seems to be running towards you,  to make sure you don't get trampled raise your arms to appear larger and say in firm calm, voice "whoa" or "get". This will help with getting the horse to head another direction. With horse behavior, there is an idea of pressure and release. Horses are herd animals, and will most likely not stand in an area waiting for you to approach them. Simple things, such as making eye contact, is actually putting pressure on the horse, cueing him to move away from you. The number one rule for approaching horses is to make sure that they know you're coming. This is easiest (by far) if you come at the horse from the front and slightly to the side (to avoid the blind spot right in front of it). If you can, approaching from the front-left of the horse is even better: many horses are trained specifically to work with humans on their left side and as a result are most comfortable with this.  It actually is a myth that horses prefer one side over the other. It is us humans that over the years have...

Building a barebones system can be a cost effective option, allowing more advanced users to save 30 to 50 percent over the cost of a pre-assembled system. A barebones system can be customized to suit your specific needs. This method is a good option for those who wish to avoid the proprietorial restrictions computer manufacturers place on service contracts. Building a barebones system requires a certain level of expertise, exceeding that of the average user. The typical barebones system may only include a power supply, motherboard and case. Various components will have to be installed, such as an optical drive, RAM memory, video cards, audio cards and hard drives. Remember that, typically, no technical support contract or warranty will be included with the purchase of a barebones system. Additionally, no operating system or software bundle will be included, which can raise the price of a barebones system to exceed that of a pre-assembled system. Keep in mind the price issue can be completely resolved if you use Linux.

While the crab’s tank is drying, you should give him a good clean too so he does not bring mites back into the tank. Use room temperature dechlorinated water to give your crab a bath at least one to two times.  Place your crab in the bowl of water. Turn your crab upside down to get all the air bubbles out of his shell. Then, pour the water off your crab into the bowl. The mites will drain off your crab along with the water. Pour out the mites in the water, down the drain of your sink. Do this once more or until all the mites on your crab are gone. Make sure there are no mites in your crab’s shell. You can also use a paper towel to squish any of the mites on your crab gently and carefully. Draining, wiping, and rinsing your crab should all help to remove the mites. You can get mite specific medication for hermit crabs from a vet that specializes in arthropods or from an exotic pet supply store. This is a good option if you have tried the plain water method and the boiling method, but the mites still have not gone away. You should also avoid using bleach solution to clean your crab and your crab’s tank. There is a high amount of chlorine in bleach that can blister your crab’s gills and make him ill.

TL;DR in English: Wash your crab in a small bowl of dechlorinated water. Use mite specific medication for hermit crabs.

The empty roll should be on a plastic spindle or roller. Remove both the empty roll and the roller holding it. Slide the spindle out of the grooves it is resting in, by lifting it upward and to the rear of the dispenser. Smaller tape dispensers may not have a spindle. You should see a plastic core (or roller) with the empty cardboard tape roll surrounding it; remove both of these from the dispenser. Slide the empty tape roll off its spindle, and discard it. If the empty roll is cardboard, it can probably go in with your paper recycling. Remove a new, full roll of tape from the box. Check the box to make sure you've got the correct size for your dispenser. Hold the full roll so that when you pull the tape, the strip of tape will unwind across the top of the roll. The sticky side of the tape will be facing down, toward the floor. (If you are holding it the wrong way, the tape will extend away from you, as it pulls from the underside of the roll; the sticky side of the tape strip will be facing upwards, toward the ceiling.) Slide new roll of tape onto the tape dispenser spindle from either direction; most rollers will fit into the dispenser either way. Hold the spindle so that the paper tab on the end of the roll is facing up and toward the front of the dispenser. Slide the spindle and the new full roll of tape back into dispenser. Settle it into its holding grooves so that it moves freely. Hold onto the paper tab at the end of the tape, and pull it towards the cutting edge at the end of the dispenser. Pull the tape over the sharp edge, and pull down on the tape to cut off the colored tab.

TL;DR in English: Remove the empty roll. Remove the empty tape roll. Ready a new roll. Align the tape. Slide the tape roll onto the spindle. Align the spindle. Load the tape.

Losing weight is not always healthy, and in fact can be quite harmful if you are already at a healthy weight or rely on inadvisable methods.  Talking to a doctor or registered dietitian before embarking on a program is the best way to set the proper goals and methods for your healthy weight loss.   Peer pressure and body image issues can make school-age young people particularly susceptible to the mistaken belief that they need to lose weight.  If you are healthy just the way you are, focus only on maintaining that health and increasing your self-esteem and confidence. If you do need to lose weight, don’t focus on a set number, or trying to look just like some famous person or popular schoolmate.  Instead, establish with a professional what your healthy weight range should be and how best to reach it. You may want to believe that there is some miracle fix that will let you shed five pounds in the week before school starts; however, any fad diet that promises such results is either a lie or detrimental to your health.  Also, even if they do work temporarily, quick-fix diets don’t produce lasting results. Aiming to lose 1, and possibly at most 2 pounds per week is considered healthy for most people.  Consult your doctor or dietitian. If you really want to lose weight before the new school year starts, your best option is to begin the process as soon as the prior school year ends.  The tortoise and the hare weren’t concerned with shedding pounds, but “slow and steady” is definitely the way to win this race.  If you want to lose weight and keep it off then you need to make lasting changes to your lifestyle, including how you eat, how you think about food, and how active you are in your daily life.  This takes time, as it requires you to recondition your brain and body. Weight loss works best when it is not a solo endeavor.  Everyone needs a boost, an encouraging word, or a kick in the pants from time to time to succeed.  Getting family, friends, and trusted advisors involved is your best option.  It can be tough...

TL;DR in English: Consult an expert. Be realistic. Give yourself time. Rely on a support network.

The Atlantic Ocean is home to only one kind of salmon, Atlantic salmon. Atlantic Salmon are usually farmed, and the fish are fed a diet that can be full of growth hormones and coloring agents to turn the flesh pink. They are mass produced and fairly inexpensive. This kind of salmon also tends to have higher levels of PolyChlorinated Biphenyls, or PCBs, which are a highly toxic industrial chemical. The Environmental Defense Fund suggests consuming no more than one meal per month consisting of Atlantic salmon. Atlantic salmon is available all year long. Chinook salmon are also known as King or Blackmouth salmon and they are the largest of the Pacific salmon. The flesh is very red and this variety has one of the highest levels of Omega 3 fatty acids, which are valued for their nutritional benefits. This fish is usually only wild caught, and it is typically only available May through August. Also known as Keta salmon, this fish is available June through September. The flesh is firm and mild. Chum salmon range the mid to upper Pacific Ocean from California to Canada and all the way across to Siberia. Due to this wide harvest area and the fish's abundant numbers, keta salmon is often widely available and at more moderate prices. These salmon are harvested or caught between July and October. They are found from British Columbia to Alaska, and they are a mild but flavorful fish. These are a smaller variety of salmon that is seen in supermarkets from May through July. The flesh is mild and sweet, and it is a popular salmon choice in seafood restaurants.

A mold is the negative of a shape that you would like to make. You can make a cast of an object you would like to reproduce by sculpting two pieces of clay around the object. When the clay dries, remove the two pieces. If you fill each half with the liquid plastic and then put the halves together, you can make a copy of that object. You can also use a cookie cutter to cut shapes out of the plastic while it is still warm. An alternative to making your own mold, is to purchase a mold at a craft or hobby shop. Once you have a mold, you can use it to make more objects. While the plastic is still hot, pour it into the mold. Make sure that the plastic gets into the entire mold and try pop bubbles by lightly tapping the mold on the counter. To make the object easier to remove when it dries, coat the mold with a non-stick spray before pouring the plastic in. The plastic will take a few days to dry and fully harden. The amount of time it takes to dry is dependent upon the thickness of the object. If the object is very thick, it can take longer than two days to fully harden. After two days, check the plastic. If it still appears to be wet, let it sit for another day and check it again. Continue to do this until the plastic is fully dry. After waiting a few days, the plastic will be fully hardened and dry. At this point, you can remove the plastic from the mold. You have now made your own plastic version of whatever object you chose to mold. You can reuse this mold to make as many plastic versions of the object as you like.

TL;DR in English: Make a mold for the plastic. Pour the hot plastic into the mold. Let the plastic dry for at least two days. Remove your plastic from the mold.

If you are experiencing the symptoms above you shouldn't waste time before booking an appointment with your eye doctor for a test. You can also, however, do some basic tests at home to try to measure your sight. Try by printing out the classic test page with letters of diminishing size from the internet.  After printing the test sheet, hang it at eye level in a well lit room. Stand ten-feet back and see how many letters you can read. Continue right to the bottom row, or as low as you can go, and write the number of the line where you could read most of the letters. Do this again, covering each eye at a time. The results vary by age, but older children and adults should be able to read the majority of the 20/20 line at the bottom. As well as printable test sheets, there are a number of tests that you can do directly on your computer. Again, these are not exactly perfect, but they can give you a basic indication of how your eyes are. You can find different tests for different eye problems, including colour blindness, and astigmatism.  They will involve you looking at different images and shapes on your computer screen, and following the instructions to test your eyes. Remember that these are vague guides, and should not be treated as a substitute for the real thing. Don't forget that if you are experiencing these symptoms you need to make an appointment with your eye specialist and have a full eye exam. Your optometrist or ophthalmologist will conduct a number of tests that will get to the bottom of your eye problems, and if you need glasses they will write you out a prescription. It might be intimidating or a little scary at first, but it's essential to caring for your eyes.  The eye doctor may use a number of instruments, aim bright lights into your eye, and have you try out a number of different lenses.  You will have to read out letters from a test sheet with while different lenses are held in front of your eyes. Ophthalmologists and optometrists are both qualified to conduct eye evaluations. After your eye...

TL;DR in English: Use some testing printouts. Try some online tests. Go to see your eye doctor. Know the next steps if you need glasses.

Either top corner is OK to begin with. Allow a small gap, about the width of a penny between the ceiling/wall, and the board. Use a level to ensure the board is level. In many cases, your ceiling may have a slight angle, so it should not be used as a guide, as it might make your planking look off level. Then, use your nail gun or a hammer and nails to attach the board in place.  If your ceiling is angled, you may want to start at the bottom of the wall. An angled ceiling will require you to cut the same angle into your planks. You can panel your wall from the bottom-up, although there are often outlets and heating or cooling vents that you'll have to cut around toward the bottom of the wall. This can be time consuming. You may want to do the easier areas first. Depending on the length of your wall, you may have to use a few full planks. For shorter walls, one or two planks may be sufficient. If your wall only requires two planks, after attaching the first one:  Position your second plank the same as your first, but on he opposite side of the top row. Your unattached plank should overlap your attached one. Use a pencil to mark the unattached plank ¼" (.64 cm) before where the boards overlap. Use your saw to cut the board at this mark and sandpaper to remove burrs. Position your plank in place so it is level and aligned with the attached one. Use a penny to ensure there is a 1/8" (.32 cm) gap between planks, the ceiling, and the wall. Double check the levelness of your unattached board, then use your nail gun or a hammer and nails to attach the plank to the wall. Save the excess plank to start the next row. This way, you'll prevent yourself from wasting lumber. Add rows of planks to your wall, working from the top down. Be sure to remember to leave a penny-wide gap on all sides of the planks and their surroundings (other planks, the wall, ceiling, floor).  When a fixture or other feature of your house (like light switches, sconces, sills, sharply angled walls/ceilings, etc.) are in the path of your plank row,...

Try it as a jello shot. Use a different colored liqueur base. Add Triple-Sec to make a B-52.

Both hot and cold temperature extremes can affect hives, and may cause them to worsen when hives are already present. For best results, take a comfortable, room-temperature bath to soothe skin rashes.  Sprinkle baking soda, uncooked oatmeal, or finely-ground colloidal oatmeal into your bath to help relieve itching. Avoid using soap until you know whether or not a given soap brand will irritate your hives. Cool, wet compresses can help alleviate the symptoms associated with rashes and hives. Exposure to a cold, wet bandage or dressing can help soothe irritated skin, and may help reduce inflammation by slowing blood flow to the rash. There are many things that can irritate hives and rashes. Even if you are not normally affected by common household irritants, it's best to avoid them until you know how your current rash/hives will react to these items. Common irritants include:  Cosmetics Dye (including dye used in clothing) Fur and leather products Hair coloring Latex Nickel products, including jewelry, zippers, buttons, and kitchen utensils Nail care products, including nail polish and artificial nails Soap and household cleaning products Even though your rash may itch very intensely, it's important to avoid scratching or rubbing the rash/hives. Scratching can cause the skin to break, leaving you prone to infection and delaying the healing process. In some people, exposure to heat and humidity can further irritate hives and rashes. If you are experiencing rashes or hives, avoid exposure to heat, humidity, and exercise. If you are experiencing rashes and hives, it's important that you choose the right clothing to prevent further irritating your skin. Choose loose, smooth-textured material like cotton. Avoid constricting clothing and any materials that are rough and scratchy like wool.

Transfer the riced or grated potato onto a clean counter or cutting board. Scoop it together so it's in a mound. Then put 2 1/2 cups (300 g) of the flour and 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 g) of salt directly onto the potatoes. You can use all-purpose or 00 flour. You can find 00 flour in specialty shops and it will make a finer, softer dough. Use your fingers like a scoop and sweep them around the center of the potato and flour mixture. This will make a deep well where you can add the remaining ingredients. Make the well large enough to hold the eggs and cheese, if you're using them. Add the egg to the center of the well. If you'd like to make creamier pasta, add 1/2 cup (123 g) of ricotta and 1/4 cup (25 g) of grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese along with the egg. Ensure there are no egg shells in the well or your dough will have hard bits. Take a fork and beat the egg with the cheeses, if you're using them. Once the egg is beaten, use the fork to start mixing in the flour and potatoes from the sides of the well. While you can use a spoon to mix the dough, it will combine better if you use a fork.

TL;DR in English: Scoop the potato onto your work surface and put flour and salt on it. Use your hands to make a well in the middle of the potato mixture. Crack 1 egg into the well and add the optional cheeses. Use a fork to mix the egg with the flour and potatoes.

You'll need 1 packet of plain gelatin, 8  fl oz (240 mL) boiling water, 4  fl oz (120 mL) of cold coffee, 4  fl oz (120 mL) of coffee liqueur, 1 packet vanilla pudding, 4  fl oz (120 mL) of cold milk and 4  fl oz (120 mL) of Irish cream. You'll also need some small plastic cups for your shots.  In a bowl, add one 3 oz (85 g) packet of plain gelatin and 4  fl oz (120 mL) of boiling water. Then, stir in 4  fl oz (120 mL) of cold coffee and 4  fl oz (120 mL) of cold coffee liqueur. This will form the dark coffee base of the jello shot. Then, in a separate bowl, whisk together 1 packet of vanilla pudding, 4  fl oz (120 mL) of cold milk and 4  fl oz (120 mL) of Irish cream. This will form the cream top of the Baby Guinness. Place cups on a tray or platter. Spoon the dark coffee mixture in first to fill 2/3 of the cup. Top carefully with the cream mixture to fill the rest of the cup. Refrigerate for two hours, or until solid. The dark colored liqueur makes the shooter look like a Guinness, but a lighter colored liqueur can make your shot look more like a pint of ale or lager. Try a sweet liqueur like Amaretto or or Licor 43. A B-52 is another layered shot that also uses coffee liqueur and Irish cream. The only difference is that coffee liqueur makes up the bottom 1/3 layer, Irish cream makes up the second 1/3 layer, and a final 1/3 layer of Triple-sec is added on top. To make a flaming B-52 shot, use a high proof Triple-sec liquor, such as Cointreau. Light the shots right before serving them, but make sure that everyone blows out the flame before they drink and be very careful when serving flaming beverages!

Walking away from a confrontation with someone who hates you does not mean that you are admitting defeat or accepting the reality that a perfect solution cannot be reached. Instead, it demonstrates that you have complete control over the situation by not engaging in their negativity.  Haters never offer constructive criticism or positive feedback, only criticism. If you already know this then there is absolutely no reason to have a dialogue with them. Listening to a hater will only ruin your day. All of the negativity will do is hurt your feelings, make you angry, or incite you to participate in the pessimism. A hater will get under your skin whenever they can. It is important to stay calm when this happens so that a physical confrontation does not occur. Stay level headed and understand that a hater does not deserve a response from you, especially in retaliation.  By staying calm and not responding to their attacks you demonstrate that their opinions and destructive comments are not valued by you. Over time, this should reveal to them that attacking your character is a waste of time. Remaining calm will conserve your energy for more positive pursuits. Do not waste your time or energy on a situation that does not deserve your attention. Since a hater will seek out negativity and place undue criticism on you don’t submit to their turpitude. They will want you to explain your mistakes in front of others to reveal your imperfect self. In response, never justify, explain, or apologize to them until they approach you in a respectful and sensible manner.  Value your self-worth and don’t degrade yourself to their level unless they treat you with the respect you deserve as a person. In this case, it is probably unwise to reply with a smart comment or to try and play it off as nothing important because it gives them an opportunity to turn the tables again on you for not addressing their accusation to begin with. Let them embarrass themselves without help. This might be difficult to do if you work with this person or...

TL;DR in English: Walk away. Stay calm. Do not offer an apology. Limit your interaction with them.

Sugar cane is easiest to find during the harvest season, in late summer and early fall. If you can't find sugar cane plants at your local garden center, it can often be found at roadside stands and farmer's markets. Asian groceries also often stock sugar cane plants.  Look for long, thick stems, which are more likely to produce healthy new plants. The stems have joints, and a new plant will sprout from each one. Keeping this in mind, buy as many stems as you need to produce the size crop you want. Leave three to four joints per piece, to make it more likely that each piece will produce a few sprouts. If the stems have any leaves or flowers, go ahead and remove them. Sugar cane stems are planted horizontally on their sides, in four-inch deep furrows, or trenches. They need full sun, so choose an area that isn't shaded. Dig furrows long enough to fit each piece of cane you're planting, and space the furrows one foot apart. Use a spade or hoe, rather than a shovel, to make it easier to dig the furrows. Use a hose to lightly moisten the furrows to prepare them for the sugar cane. Make sure the water has drained and there are no remaining puddles before you plant. Place the stems horizontally into the furrows. Cover them with soil. Do not plant stems upright, or they will not grow. In the spring, usually in April or May, shoots will start to grow from the nodes of the stems. You'll see them breaking through the soil to form individual sugar cane stalks, which will grow quite tall by summer's end.

TL;DR in English: Select healthy sugar cane plants. Split the sugar cane stems into foot-long pieces. Dig furrows in a sunny planting spot. Moisten the furrows. Plant the sugar cane. Wait for the sugar cane to grow.

No matter the kind of date you plan, wearing something new, or something he especially loves, will help the day feel special. If you wear dresses, try a slinky dress, or a curve-hugging skirt. If you wear suits, wear a well-tailored suit and an open collared shirt. Opt for fabric that feels good to the touch, like silk or velvet. If you aren't worried about matching the décor, wear red.  Consider underwear. Wearing lingerie under your beautiful outfit will make every step of dressing and undressing a Valentine's day activity. Think sheer panties or boxer briefs, thigh highs, a garter belt, a thong, or a bustier. Dress him up too. If your husband is the kind of guy who likes to be dressed up, embrace that. Buy him something you know he wants, or something you think he'd look especially hot in. The same ideas that work for you work for him. You can get him clothes to show off, or something more intimate to wear just for you. If you're going hiking for Valentine's day, you can even get him some attractive exercise wear, like shiny bike shorts or a mesh tank top. If your husband prefers feeling in control of his own outfit, plan ahead. Tell him you want to buy him something special, and look around online together till you find the right thing. The place you'll be spending time together should be beautiful. You might go to an elegant restaurant, take a hike at sunrise, or walk the beach at sunset. Depending on your aesthetic, you and your husband might enjoy a stroll through a community garden, a visit to an art-deco movie theater, or a visit to a graffitied canal.  If you are decorating at home, put out clean tablecloths in dark or warm colors. Stick some candles in candle holders or old wine bottles, or make floating candles. Clean up. A mess is depressing, and draping it with streamers is like giving up. If you're celebrating at home, tidy your home. Put away all evidence of work. Put flowers in a vase, and drop petals on the tablecloth or into the bowl of floating candles. Food might provide all the scent you...
