Being single is associated with a decreased risk of adverse health effects from dysfunctional marriages or intimate relationships. Some studies have shown that bad relationships can actually make you physically unhealthy. But singles are more likely to be fit and healthy. Singles also tend to go to the gym more, eat better, and have lower stress levels.  Single people tend to be thinner than people who are in a relationship. One study found that people gain an average of 14 or more pounds after starting a relationship.  Single people also get more, good quality sleep than people who share a bed with a partner.  Single women have better mental health than married women, especially married women who have children.

TL;DR in English: Consider the health benefits of being single.

Excel can work with multiple worksheets within a single workbook, or with multiple workbooks, but you'll find comparing the lists easier if you copy their information onto a single worksheet. If your two lists don't share a common way to identify them, you may need to add an additional column to each data list that identifies that item to Excel so that it can see if an item in a given list is related to an item in the other list. The nature of this identifier will depend on the kind of data you are trying to match. You will need an identifier for each column list.  For financial data associated with a given period, such as with tax records, this could be the description of an asset, the date the asset was acquired, or both. In some cases, an entry may be identified with a code number; however, if the same system is not used for both lists, this identifier may create matches where there are none or ignore matches that should be made. In some cases, you can take items from one list and combine them with items from another list to create an identifier, such as a physical asset description and the year it was purchased. To create such an identifier, you concatenate (add, combine) data from two or more cells using the ampersand (&). To combine an item description in cell F3 with a date in cell G3, separated by a space, you'd enter the formula '=F3&" "&G3' in another cell in that row, such as E3. If you wanted to include only the year in the identifier (because one list uses full dates and the other uses only years), you'd include the YEAR function by entering '=F3&" "&YEAR(G3)' in cell E3 instead. (Do not include the single quotes; they are there only to indicate the example.) Once you've created the formula, you can copy it into all other cells of the identifier column by selecting the cell with the formula and dragging the fill handle over the other cells of the column where you want to copy the formula. When you release your mouse button, each cell you dragged over will be populated with the formula, with the...

TL;DR in English: Copy the data lists onto a single worksheet. Give each list item a unique identifier. Standardize data where possible. Create columns for the comparison formula. Enter the comparison formula in each cell. Sort the lists to see non-matching values more easily, if necessary. Compare the non-matching items visually to see why they don't match.

In a small bowl, combine equal amounts of baking soda and water. Stir the ingredients together until they form a paste that is easy to apply to the grout. Pick up the paste with your brush and spread it over the grout. You can apply it with the same brush you’ll use to scrub the grout later. Grout brushes and other stiff-bristled scrub brushes can be found at home improvement stores. If you don’t have a scrub brush, a sponge with a scouring side or an old toothbrush also work well. Make sure the water is warm before you add it to the spray bottle or a bowl. Combine the water with an equal amount of vinegar. Place the mixture in a spray bottle to make applying it easier. Spray vinegar directly upon the baking soda. A single spray will be enough to cause the baking soda to begin to fizz. You'll see the vinegar reacting with the baking soda, causing a fizz. During these five minutes, the fizz will loosen the grime on the grout. Use a grout brush to work the baking soda further into the grout. Alternatively, scrub with a stiff-bristled brush, scouring sponge, or toothbrush. Scrubbing takes some muscle power, but the effort removes most of the grime. Look out for dark areas indicating where grime remains on the grout. Try scrubbing these areas again or clean them with hydrogen peroxide. After scrubbing, you’ll be left with dirty vinegar and baking soda. Apply paper towels to pick up the mess or use old rags if you wish to save on paper. A sponge can also help you loosen any bits of grime and cleaner on the grout. Optionally, you can give your floor a shine. First, sweep or vacuum up any baking soda still left on the floor. Afterwards, mop the floor as you normally would. Grout you cannot reach by mop can be wiped clean by a rag dampened in clean water.

TL;DR in English:


Read the manual for your washer. Avoid electrical shock. Grab some towels. Figure out where to put the water. Wait for the water to cool.

Trim off the burnt edges from the cake using a bread knife by using a fast but gentle cutting action. Ensure you also slice off the burnt bottom and sides to remove the burnt areas. Shaving off the burnt edges will prevent the cake from having an unpleasant taste and will help make it more enjoyable to eat. This method can also be useful if your cake has gotten minor brown burns while baking.   While the cake may end up looking smaller and the serving amount will decrease, the burnt edges will be gone and the cake can be happily devoured. If the top is burnt, level it to remove the burnt part. Sometimes when over-baking a cake it won't burn or blacken, but instead, taste dry and crumbly. You can fix that by spreading the cake with butter with a large butter knife while the cake is still warm. The butter will melt into the cake and allow it to moisten and not taste as dry. If you shaved off the burnt edges from the cake and notice the cake is too small, fix the cake and save it by making it into a trifle instead. Cut off the burnt edges of the cake if you haven't already and crumble it up into a bowl. In a tall glass, make a variety of layers such as one layer of chocolate pudding, another layer of the cake, one layer for walnuts, etc. Others won't notice the burnt cake and you'll end up with a new tasty dessert to enjoy.  You can also add freshly chopped fruit into your trifle for a sweeter flavor that can hide the taste of the burnt, dry cake. While you and others enjoy the cake; serve the cake with a glass of milk, a mug of hot chocolate, some tea, or coffee. This prevents the burnt flavor the cake to show and will usually hide the dry, crumbly flavor of a burnt cake. One way to fix a burnt cake is to freeze it in a freezer. Snip off the burn edges from the cake, frost it, and then freeze it until the frosting is solid. Allow it to thaw and then re-frost it again with more frosting. The dry, burnt taste will be gone and you won't even notice it.  It will usually take about 5 hours till overnight until a...

TL;DR in English: Remove the burnt edges from the cake. Add butter if the cake is dry. Consider making a trifle out of the cake. Enjoy the cake with a beverage. Freeze the cake and re-frost if. Make cake pops. Cut the cake into mini-sized cubes.

Many people find it easier to lie by text or email, or over the phone, since they can avoid many of the problems with body language and other indicators of lying. If you suspect that someone is lying, try to meet them face-to-face. You’ll increase your chances of catching them if you can observe and interact with them directly. If they repeatedly refuse to meet in person, you’ll have even more reason to be suspicious. Unless you have overwhelming evidence right from the start, don’t make someone prove they’re telling you the truth. Especially if it’s someone you care about, give them the benefit of the doubt — but also don’t feel bad about looking for proof to the contrary. Instead of automatically assuming the worst, try to trust them until the evidence of a lie can’t be ignored.  Keep in mind that if someone is breaking bad or uncomfortable news, they may look like they are lying. Likewise, if they are under stress, their behaviors may be a little odd. For example, if someone tells you that they were in a car accident earlier that day while laughing, do not assume that they are lying.  The laughter may be an uncontrollable response to trauma. When someone is lying, their emotions may not match their words or actions. A child might say they’re sad about breaking the vase while holding back laughter, for example, and even adults can have trouble hiding their true emotions. Engage them in conversation to see if their emotions fit the circumstances. For instance, if they keep saying their new job is great but you suspect otherwise, keep asking about elements of the job and see if their happy words are betrayed by feelings of fear, sadness, or boredom. While talking about the thing they’re possibly lying about, give the person a way out by unexpectedly switching topics. If they are lying, they’ll probably be glad to change subjects. If they are not lying, they may act confused by the sudden change in conversation. A person telling the truth may also try to circle back and finish clarifying. For instance, jump...

TL;DR in English: Talk to the person face-to-face. Try to trust the person. Connect with them emotionally. Change the subject. Ask a question that is unexpected. Insist on an answer to your question. Trust your instincts — to a degree.

The methods included here are fairly standard and should generally work with most washers. Even so, break out your owner’s manual and read over the appropriate sections, just in case any directions or advice are particular to that manufacturer and/or model. Check its table of contents or index for subjects like:  Drainage issues and troubleshooting Disconnecting and reconnecting drain hoses and/or filters Draining your washer shouldn’t be an out-of-control project with water flying everywhere, but play it safe anyway. If your washer is plugged into a power outlet, unplug it. If it’s hardwired into your electrical system instead, switch off the appropriate circuit breaker. Eliminate the risk of electrocution just in case you experience any unforeseen mishaps. Do the same with any other electrical devices in the immediate area. Again, this project shouldn’t create a huge mess, but be prepared for at least a little water to possibly go wild. Before you begin, set yourself up with some towels to keep on hand. Make clean-up a cinch by having them within easy reach in case you spill any water on the floor or elsewhere.  Draining a front-loading machine is more likely to be messy than a top-loading machine, so if that’s what you have, expect more spills. In addition to towels, you could also lay out a tarp, dropcloth, or similar material on the floor around your washer. This may seem like a no-brainer, but make life easier by knowing exactly how you’ll dispose of the water before you start. If your laundry room has a drain in the floor, use that. If your washer is in a bathroom and has a drainage hose that will reach, use your bathtub or shower stall. Otherwise, have a bucket or dish ready to transport the water to a sink or tub elsewhere in your home.  Be aware that used water from your washer is usually considered “gray water.” Your local, state, or even federal government may have laws regarding the proper disposal of gray water. This means that you may not be allowed to simply toss it outside so it can soak into...

If you find that you cannot overcome your sadness on your own, talk with a mental health professional. A trained therapist or psychologist can work with you to learn new ways of thinking and coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy is an approach that has been shown to give people to the tools to handle depression.  This practice focuses on using techniques to help people focus on the present, rather than getting carried away with negative thoughts. It can be used in conjunction with medication as well. In some cases, people suffering from sadness or depression begin to feel better by taking medication. Antidepressants can help alleviate chronic feelings of sadness or depression.  Your doctor may prescribe a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRIs), such as fluoxetine, paroxetine, sertraline, citalopram, and escitalopram. SSRIs generally cause fewer side effects than other antidepressant drugs.  Your doctor may prescribe serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) such as duloxetine, venlafaxine , desvenlafaxine, and levomilnacipran.  Norepinephrine-dopamine reuptake inhibitors (NDRIs), such as bupropion, are not generally associated with the sexual side effects of other anti-depressants.  Tricyclic antidepressants are generally prescribed when other anti-depressants haven’t worked. These drugs-- including imipramine, nortriptyline, amitriptyline, doxepin, trimipramine, desipramine, and protriptyline—can have significant side effects.  Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) are a last resort antidepressant. MAOIs, such tranylcypromine, phenelzine, and isocarboxazid, are also generally prescribed when nothing else works. Be aware these drugs can have serious side effects. You and your care providers may want to consider other treatment options if medications and lifestyle remedies are not working. From hospital stays to transcranial magnetic stimulation, these alternative treatment options may help you stop feeling sad.  If you are not able to properly care for yourself, you and your doctor may want...

TL;DR in English: Consult a therapist or psychologist. Talk with a psychiatrist about antidepressant medications. Consider alternative treatments.

Netting that is too small for starlings to penetrate will prevent them from entering your orchard while still allowing sunlight and less invasive birds through.  The practicality of this approach may vary depending on the size of the area that you wish to cover. Maintaining the netting is important—holes may allow the starlings to get through. The areas may need to be covered only for a limited time.  Once the starlings move on to a new area, they may not try to return, or you may be able to continue prevention with less extreme measures. Starlings prefer to nest in areas where the trees are dense and close together.  For a long-term solution to deter the birds, consider thinning the trees on your property. Sometimes thick or commercial grade material such as metal flashing or industrial vent/chimney covers may be necessary. Metal spikes along ledges and other areas that starlings have started to roost will help drive starlings away to other areas. Boards or other materials set at a 45 degree incline along ledges and other roost areas will deter starlings due to the uncomfortable angle.  You may be able to remove the boards once the starlings have moved on to new territory.

TL;DR in English: Cover orchards or nest areas with netting. Thin trees in densely forested areas. Block any openings bigger than 1” wide. Install deterrent spikes on roosting areas. Install angled boards over ledges.

There are a wide variety of different emergency contraceptive pills that contain levonorgestrel (the hormone that can prevent pregnancy) available at pharmacies and drug stores. Some are available over-the-counter to anyone, regardless of age or gender, but others require a prescription in some cases.  There are one-pill and two-pill options available, both of which are equally effective. The one-pill option is available to anyone without a prescription, while the two-pill option requires a prescription for patients under 17 and requires a photo ID. If you need a prescription, visit your doctor's office, a walk-in clinic, an urgent care center, or a women's health clinic as soon as possible to get one. Although it may be uncomfortable, consider talking to your parents and getting their help. If you do not need a prescription, simply visit your local pharmacy to purchase emergency contraception (also called "the morning after pill"). Go as soon as you can after unprotected sex. While the morning after pill can be taken up to 72 hours after unprotected sex, it is more effective the sooner you take it.  Some stores keep the pills in locked boxes or behind the counter, so you may have to ask an employee for help. It's a good idea to call your local pharmacy to find out if they stock emergency contraceptives, as not all of them do. Depending on what brand of pill you buy and where you buy it, you should expect to spend between $35 and $50 at a drug store. If you cannot afford this, you may be able to get the same pill for cheaper at a health clinic like Planned Parenthood. Your insurance may cover this form of emergency contraceptives, but probably only if you have a prescription from your doctor. Over-the-counter pills are available under many different brand names, some of which are one-step pills and some of which are two-step pills. While they are all equally effective, it is important to read the instructions carefully to understand when you should take each pill.  If you use a one-step pill, you should take...

Light or dark brown leather is the most common and traditional boat shoe material. Brown boat shoes are a great choice because they pair well with a variety of outfits—such as jeans and a T-shirt or a button-up and shorts. Plus, this color shows the least amount of stains. Navy blue shoes are another good option for boat shoes because they are also fairly diverse. They especially pair well with a nautical beachy look—like a striped shirt and white pants. Or, you could wear them with a sundress for a more feminine look. White boat shoes are also an option for a nautical look, but they are harder to keep clean than navy blue shoes. Boat shoes come in all kinds of different colors and designs. You could choose brightly colored choose as a way to accent your outfit, or as a way to be comfortable, yet unconventional. For example, match red boat shoes with a pair of jeans and a white or red polo. You can also wear boat shoes that have a pattern, such as polka dots or stripes. Boat shoes are meant to be comfortable, so it is important that they fit correctly. When you stand, there should be a .5 inches (1.3 cm) of space between your big toe and the tip of the shoe. The ball of your foot should fit comfortably and securely into the middle portion of the shoe.

This may seem like a no-brainer, but it's something all too many forget! Though almost every relationship will have difficult patches, relationships should bring happiness to both partners (most of the time). Your girlfriend should be someone that you know can bring out positive emotions in you. If the girl you're considering starting a relationship with makes you wish you were somewhere else or causes you to become tense or unhappy often, you'll want to seriously reconsider. Ask yourself the following questions:  Can I be myself around this person, or do I have to put up a "nice" front? Is this someone I naturally enjoy talking to? Do we seem to enjoy the time we spend together? We all know how the old saying goes: "You can't love someone else if you don't love yourself." Heed this advice - pick a girlfriend who loves herself and has a healthy self-image. Such girls are likely to be emotionally stable and have reasonable, realistic priorities that are compatible with a relationship. How do you know if a girl loves herself? Usually, a person with a healthy amount of self-respect will have some (if not all) of the following qualities:  Proper hygiene habits Confidence in her own abilities A relaxed, genuine demeanor An ability to find humor in herself without being overly self-deprecating If you don't feel a real emotional connection to your girlfriend, it doesn't really matter how pretty she is - your relationship is going to be a dull one. You'll want to choose a girlfriend primarily based on an emotional attraction, rather than a physical one. Ask yourself: "Would I still want to be in a relationship with this girl if she got a rash on her face?" If so, you probably have an attraction that's more than skin deep! This being said, there's absolutely nothing wrong with cherishing your S.O.'s beauty, so if you have an emotional connection with someone that you're also physically attracted to, all the better! Physical attraction is certainly one ingredient in a healthy relationship - it's just not the most...

Go for a run.  Alternate your regular jogging speed with explosive sprints.  For instance, you might sprint from one streetlight to the next, then return to your regular jogging speed, then sprint again at the next streetlight, and so on. Performing short sprints can train you to move faster.  Moving faster can help you develop speed when boxing. There are many ways you can jump rope.  A regular running-in-place jump style is the best way to start.  You could also do double unders -- that is, swinging the rope beneath both legs twice before you touch the ground.  To increase the speed even more, do some jump rope sprints by swinging the rope as fast as possible around your body.  Any jump rope activity mode can improve your speed and agility. Using a jump rope can improve speed when boxing because it triggers the shoulder’s fast-twitch muscle fibers. Sparring with a partner can help you improve reaction speed and lateral movement.  It also provides another opportunity to practice throwing fast, accurate punches.  A gym with a boxing ring is the best place to find a sparring partner.

You might have noticed going over potholes and bumps isn't as smooth as it used to be in your ride, which is probably a sign that your shocks are worn out and need replaced. A good easy way to test your shocks and make sure they're worn out enough to be replaced is to push down hard on the trunk or the hood directly above the wheel well. Good shocks should bounce up once and settle relatively quickly. If the body bounces any more than that after pushing, it's time for a new set. You also need to know if your vehicle uses stand-alone shocks that attach to the vehicle suspension or frame, or if it uses shock-absorber units which integrated into a suspension strut, such as the MacPherson or Chapman strut. Your car may even have a combination, using shocks in the front and struts in the back. Struts can be difficult to replace, so it's best to let a professional handle that job. If you're unsure what type of shock absorbers you need, speak to someone at your local auto parts store or an auto mechanic to be sure you buy the right shock absorbers or piston for your vehicle. You can get identical replacements of the shocks you have in your car currently, but taking the time to change out your shocks is also a good opportunity to perform any upgrades, if you're interested. Performance shocks are appropriate for heavy-use daily drive vehicles, especially trucks.   Coil shocks are manufactured with a coiled spring around the body of the shock, which supports the weight of the vehicle and controls the movement of the suspension. These are adjustable, which means you can alter the height of your truck for optimum performance.   Twin-tube shocks have a set of tubes, one inner and one out, that house the piston, along with a layer of shock fluid and air, which can have a tendency to create a foamy, frothy mixture that can affect performance, though some modern variations feature a nitrogen mixture that addresses the issue. These are common on off-road vehicles.   Monotube shocks feature a tube and two pistons, which work...

The foundation of your guinea pig’s diet should be grass hay. It’s a good source of fibres and keeps their teeth ground down.  It’s important to let your guinea pig have constant access to grass hay and other sources of food.   Pellets sold in pet shops is heavily debated. Avoid alfalfa pellets with large concentrations of calcium, a potential cause of urinary infection. Also avoid muesli to prevent selective feeding. Plain guinea pig pellets that are fortified with vitamin C are best. Provide 1/8 cup of pellets per guinea pig a day. There are several types of grass hay, with timothy, orchard, and meadow being the most popular varieties. You can find them in pet shops or at equestrian centers. Separate the hay from the bedding. You don’t want your animal to eat and go to the toilet in the same place. Provide your guinea pig with one cup of fresh vegetables a day. Bell peppers, kale, parsley, celery, cucumber, carrots, tomatoes, bok choy, fennel, and peas are a few suitable vegetable options. Variety is key to a good diet. Feed your guinea pigs fruit in limited amounts. Fruits are high in sugar, and can lead to health problems if fed in large quantities. Look for food enhanced with vitamin C, as Guinea pigs can't produce it themselves. They also need high levels of vitamin A, which can be found in carrots. Bell peppers can be fed daily to boost your guinea pig's vitamin C intake. Parsley is another herb that is high in vitamin C Change your guinea pig's water daily to prevent algae growth. Avoid potatoes, rhubarb, avocado, tomato leaves and flowers. They are poisonous to guinea pigs. Guinea pigs are very sociable and love company. Keep guinea pigs of the same sex or already spayed/neutered pairs. Guinea pigs are social animals but they aren’t above fights. Introduce a new guinea pig slowly.

Getting the measurements to your windows is the absolute first step to installing shutters – without measurements, your shutters likely won't be the right size. This is because shutters rest inside the window casing, their size determined by the size of the window. If you're making your shutters yourself, you need the measurements. If you're getting shutters from a home improvement shop, you need the measurements. And if you're getting your shutters custom-designed, you need the measurements. Have these in hand when you go to the store. The shutter needs to be 1/4" (.635 cm) smaller than your window on all sides, nestled in the casing. So if you're going to pick out your shutters, this is the size you're aiming for. Since you know the size of your window, this shouldn't be a problem. You can, however, use shutters that don't fit if you don't want them to close. There are many shutters that are used for only decorative purposes. They are attached to the exterior walls and are immobile. Your shutters should be exactly how you want them before you begin the painting process. Once they're up, they'll be incredibly difficult to change, even if it's just the tiniest bit. Make sure the shutters you have are the shutters you want hanging. If you're painting your shutters, be sure to paint every side – all six sides that is, not just the front and back. You want the tops, bottoms, and sides, painted, too. In certain positions, every side is visible. In this article, we'll be using terms to describe the hardware that you may or may not be familiar with. Here's what you'll need to hang your shutters:   Hinges. This is the piece that allows the shutter to swing. There are four and they are placed in each corner of the shutter and window casing. They may be referred to as a "strap hinge."  Pintle. This is the base of the hinge. It is what is attached to the house.  Tiebacks. This is also referred to as a "shutter dog."

If the denominator of the two fractions that you are adding or subtracting is the same, put the same number once as the denominator for your answer. In other words, 1/5 and 2/5 does not need to be written as 1/5 + 2/5 = ? It can be written as 1+2/5 = ?. The denominator is the same, so it can be written only once. Both numerators then go on top. The "numerator" is the top number of any fraction.  If we take the above example, 1/5 and 2/5, 1 and 2 are our numerators. Whether you have it written 1/5 + 2/5 or 1+2/5, you answer should be the same: 3! After all, 1 + 2 = 3. Since you're working with one constant denominator, don't do anything with it! Don't add, subtract, multiply, or divide. Just leave it be. So, using the same example, our denominator is 5. That's it! That's the bottom number of our fraction. That's half the answer already! Now, all you do is write out your numerator and your denominator! If you've followed the above example, you'll find that the answer to this problem is 3/5. What was your numerator? 3. The denominator? 5. Therefore, 1/5 + 2/5, or 1+2/5, equals 3/5.

You’ll need to know exactly what coin you're looking at to determine its specific value. Modern coins will include a date of issue printed on the front or back of the coin itself. They will probably also name the country of origin.  If the information printed on the coin is printed in a language you can’t read, consult a world coin reference book or website. These will include images that will help you match your coin. These guides can also be used to help you determine how old coins without a printed date are. If you cannot find the coin in a book due to lack of identifiers, try to determine general area (i.e. Sinosphere, Islamic Countries, Core African). Broadening your search first may help you narrow in on the correct country. The value of a coin is greatly affected by its condition. Higher quality coins are generally more valuable than ones that are blemished or dirty.  Coins that were never used are known as uncirculated. Coins are rated from “mint” (perfect) condition, all the way down to “poor” (dirty or damaged). If you have a coin that you think might be rare or valuable, don’t attempt to clean it yourself. Take it to an expert to have it cleaned without damaging it and lowering its value. If a coin is severely damaged, it might just be worth the value of the metal itself. Some websites will make values for some coins freely available. Check with an professional organization like the Professional Numismatics Guild. Look up your coin according to its date and origin, and you may be able to find its current  value. A number of factors (including condition and current demand) impact the amount a coin can actually be sold for, so use the value you find online only as a ballpark figure. If you can’t find the value of your coin online, consult a reference such as the Standard Catalog of World Coins, or the Guide Book of United States Coins. These references are especially useful because they may list several values for a particular coin:  The “book” value (a generally accepted value of the coin) The “buy”...

TL;DR in English: Pin down the coin’s origin and date. Inspect the coin to determine its condition. Check coin value lists online. Consult a coin value book. Account for any special factors.

This is easier said than done, but it is important to quell your anxiety in order to be able to eat.  Being nervous is going to make it more difficult to eat and digest your food.  It can also cause your hands to shake, leading to spills.  Try to relax and appear calm and cool in front of your crush.  Replace automatic negative thoughts with more rational ones. If you are feeling judged, remember that everyone eats.  It is perfectly normal and necessary. Prepare for eating in front of your crush by eating socially around other people more often. Many people eat too fast.  Slow down.  Take time to really enjoy your meal and the conversation with your friends and your crush.  Spend less time worrying about eating and more time focusing on what your crush has to say.  It’s really their company that you are interested in more than the food.  Talk more between each bite. Invite your crush into the conversation. This moment is not the end of the world.  There are plenty of things to look forward to.  If this moment of eating in front of your crush is freaking you out, focus on the future instead.  Strike up a conversation about a movie that just came out. If you are eating in the school cafeteria, talk about the classes you have coming up in the afternoon. Keep it positive.  Try to focus on things that make you happy to quell your nerves.  Talk about your hobbies.  Maybe you play a sport and have a big game coming up, or you’re reading a really good book. The fact is, eating is normal.  Everyone must eat in order to survive.  Anxiety over eating in social situations can be the result of feeling judged or suffering from a poor personal body image.  If you suspect you may have an eating disorder, ask for help.  Check with your doctor if you notice effects on your health, like fatigue, severe weigh loss, or loss of your menstrual cycle. Ask for support from your friends, family and a medical professional. Have hope in knowing that this will get easier the more you do it.  You will become more comfortable in the...

TL;DR in English: Relax. Focus on the conversation. Look forward to another activity after eating. Seek therapy if your anxiety is overwhelming. Keep trying.

Use a bone folder or the top of your nail to get a crisp fold. You can fold individually or in groups, depending on how many pages you have. If you know your page measurements, you don’t have to measure. If you don’t, or if you’re not using a standard page size, make sure you measure precisely. This bookbinding method requires five holes at the crease. They should be equally spread apart, but the spacing between the dots will depend on how large your paper is. For example, if you have a paper that’s 8.5 by 11 in (22 by 28 cm) printer paper, dividing that by five gives you 1.7 inches (4.3 cm). An awl is used to pierce small holes in anything from paper to leather to wood. Make sure you’re using an awl made for paper. If you don’t have an awl, you can use a large needle.

TL;DR in English: Fold your pages in half. Use a ruler to measure how long the book is. Divide your measurement by five. Pierce each station with an awl.

A new, clean eyeshadow brush or an old nail polish brush that you’ve cleaned and sanitized will work perfectly for this. In order to clean a nail polish brush, swirl it around in 2 or 3 drops of nail polish thinner on a plastic plate. Wipe the brush on a piece of cardboard. Repeat this until the brush wipes clean.  Nail polish thinner is different than remover. It is most commonly used to restore old bottles of nail polish to their old consistency. Cardboard is recommended because other materials, like paper towels, will leave lint on the brush. You don’t want to use acetone because it will ruin the fibers of your brush. There are many kinds of extra strength nail polish remover instead that will work just as well in taking polish off of your fingers. Choose your desired color. Paint with your basecoat and color. Use as many coats of your colored polish as you need to get the desired color. Once the top coat has dried, you can take a paper towel that you’ve dampened with warm water and folded. Use the folded corner to wipe around the nails to take off any remaining nail polish remover. Don’t forget to wash your brushes to have them ready for next time!

TL;DR in English: Have a brush ready. Pour nail polish remover into a small dish. Paint your nails. Finish your manicure.

To qualify for these more lenient requirements, include the following documents in your application:   Your partner's current UK passport, or a copy of every page of the passport (including blank ones), or his or her registration or naturalisation certificate proving citizenship.  The marriage certificate or civil partnership certificate. If you have a different type of official partnership, or if you are part of a homosexual couple in a country that does not recognize your partnership, you may still meet these requirements. Contact the UK Visas and Immigration office for advice. To qualify for citizenship, you must have entered the UK at least three years ago, and lived here for most of the past three years. You are allowed 270 days of absence over this period, but up to 300 days may be overlooked. If you have a family and home in the UK, and your application meets all other requirements, this number may increase: Up to 450 days over the past three years if you have four years of residency, or up to 540 days if you have five years of residency. A compelling reason for absence (travel for UK armed forces or UK business) may replace the residency requirements. You do not need to meet this requirement if your spouse or civil partner works for the UK government, or in designated service. This includes service with certain groups not directly under the UK government, such as the British Red Cross, a member of the Council of Voluntary Welfare Work, or NATO. Apart from these differences, the application for citizenship is the same as for foreigners living in the UK. Fill out Form AN and attach any additional documents or extra information according to the instructions. If you have any questions, refer to the instructions above for foreigners living in the UK.

Being a successful fashion designer not only requires talent and creativity, it also requires a sound knowledge of the business and marketing aspects of the fashion world. Keep yourself updated on the happenings in the fashion industry by regularly reading trade journals like Women's Wear Daily and Daily News Record.  Many fashion design programs include courses in marketing. Some programs/majors highlight marketing more than others, so be sure to do ample research on the coursework involved in the program you choose. If you've already undertaken a course but missed the marketing/financial side of things, consider doing short courses in these aspects of business. Learn beyond design. There is an entire supply chain involved in the fashion industry and you need to understand what each person's job is, so that you can see things from their perspective too, in order to make compromises, meet demands and understand where things get held up. Research what others do, such as buyers, merchandisers, pattern cutters, garment and fabric technologists, quality controllers, graders, sample machinists, sales people, PR and marketing people, fashion journalists, retailers, event organizers, fashion stylists and so forth. Know your customer. This skill is basic and essential and it's one a fashion designer must never lose sight of. Know how much your customers spend, what their lifestyles are, where they like to shop, how they like to shop and what they like and dislike. Know what are absolute needs and what are the things that only get bought when disposable incomes are less tight. If you have done marketing, you should have a solid understanding of how to work out customers' needs. Know your competitors. Always keep an eye on what other fashion designers in your area of interest are doing. At a minimum, keep up. Better still, surpass them while still meeting your customers' needs. Trade fairs are an excellent place to develop deeper understanding of how the fashion industry works and what will work for you in terms of...

TL;DR in English: Get educated about the business side of fashion. Look for fashion design jobs. If running your own design business, be prepared to be financially astute. Be realistic.

To get to Saffron City, first, you'll need to go back to Celadon City. As a reminder, this is the city where the six-story department store is located and where Erica, the grass-type master, is the gym leader. It is located directly to the West of Saffron City, connected to it by Route Seven. If you have a Pokémon who knows the "Fly" move (HM02), you can simply fly to Celadon City. If not, reach it from Fuchsia City via the Bike Tunnel (Route 17) or from Lavender Town via the Underground Path. Once you're in Celadon City, visit the Celadon Mansion. This building, located next to Celadon's Pokémon Center, is where you probably originally received an Eevee. On the first floor of the Celadon Mansion, you should find an old woman. She is sitting at a table above and to the left of the entrance. Talk to her. The old woman should give you a hot tea drink. Congratulations — you now have what you need to get into Saffron City! Since you're already at the Celadon Mansion, you may want to take the time to visit the second floor, where you can find information about Erika, the Saffron City Gym leader. This is a must if you're attempting the Fame Checker sidequest.

TL;DR in English: Go to Celadon City. Go into Celadon Mansion. Talk to the Old Lady. Receive the tea drink.

Get up once an hour and walk around for a minute or two just to keep your blood flowing. Long periods of sitting can cause blood to pool in your feet, which causes more swelling. If you have to sit for a long period of time, use a footstool to help promote circulation. Wear full-length support stockings to increase blood flow and ease swelling in your feet. Stockings are most effective if you wear them all day, particularly if you’re going to be standing a lot. Avoid compression socks, which may squeeze above the ankle and encourage foot swelling. You can purchase support stockings online at health supply stores, such as ExMed and Walgreens. Drinking enough water can flush your body of extra salt and reduce foot swelling. Some adults may need more or less depending upon pregnancy or other health conditions. For most people though, drinking at least 48 ounces (1.4 liters) of water a day will keep excess swelling to a minimum.  While the occasional soda or coffee is fine, do not count these beverages as part of your daily water intake. They can have a diuretic effect.  Don't force yourself to drink more if you can't. Aim to work out for at least 30 minutes 4 to 5 days a week to keep your blood flowing. Even a casual walk will keep your heart rate up and discourage blood from pooling in your feet. If you’re sedentary right now, slowly work your way up to 4 days a week by starting with a 15 minute session one day at a time.  If you have limitations due to pregnancy or injury, ask your doctor what exercises you can do to alleviate swelling. Exercising with a buddy can be a great way to stick to a new fitness routine. Certain yoga poses, such as lying on the floor with your legs up against the wall, can reduce foot swelling, too. Wear shoes that fit you well and ensure that the ball of your foot fits in the widest part of the shoe easily. When you wear shoes that are too small, it can cut off circulation, causing pain or even injury.

Some patients are advised to take prescribed or over the counter medications or supplements to augment their levels of hemoglobin. Supplements may include:  20-25mg of iron per day. This stimulates the production of hematin. 400mcg of folic acid per day. This is taken to increase the production of red blood cells which transport hemoglobin. 50-100mcg per day of vitamin B6. This functions also to increase red blood cell production. 500-1000mg per day of vitamin B12. It is prescribed to enhance red blood cell count. 1000mg per day of vitamin C. It is administered for red blood cell production as well. Erythropoietin is a hormone manufactured by the kidneys to promote the development of red blood cells by the bone marrow. Once the kidney cells sense that the oxygen level in the blood is too low it produces and releases erythropoietin to stimulate the bone marrow to generate more red blood cells. The increase in red blood cell count can also enhance the capacity of blood to carry oxygen.  In general, erythropoietin functions mainly to encourage the production of red blood cells and instigate the synthesis of hemoglobin (a component of the red blood cells that are in charge in transporting oxygen) . Erythropoietin is administered either through the veins or via subcutaneous (external, fatty portion of the legs and thighs) injection. Blood transfusions are sometimes recommended by health care providers to improve hemoglobin count.  Prior to transfusion, safety precautions are taken to ensure the quality and compatibility of blood. It is tested for signs of contamination which can cause adverse reactions to patients. Donated blood can contain infectious components for HIV/AIDS and hepatitis so proper screening is very important. After a thorough examination, the blood transfusion is given. It is administered through a central venous catheter or intravenous line in the arm over several hours. The patient is then watched carefully for any untoward signs of blood transfusion such as difficulty of breathing, itchiness...

TL;DR in English: Talk to your doctor about taking supplements to increase your hemoglobin count. Talk to your doctor about getting erythropoietin injections. Consider getting a blood transfusion if your hemoglobin levels are very low.

This usually includes rulers, yardsticks, or measuring tape. The size of whatever you’re measuring will determine which measuring tool is best for you.  For example, use a measuring stick if you’re trying to measure the length of something with a rigid straight edge. Rulers are best for short distances, while yard sticks are better for objects that are 1 to 3 feet (0.30 to 0.91 m) long. Use a tape measure when you need to measure the distance around a curved object. Tape measures can bend, making them better for objects that are not perfectly flat or straight. Count the number of small lines in between the bigger, numbered lines on your measuring tool. Since each of the numbered lines represents an inch, the number of lines in between them determines how your tool breaks inches down into fractions.  If there is 1 unnumbered line, the inches are broken down into halves. If there are 3 unnumbered lines, the inches are broken down into quarters. If there are 7 unnumbered lines, the inches are broken down into eighths. If there are 15 unnumbered lines, the inches are broken down into sixteenths. Place the starting end of the measuring tool where it says “0” against the closest edge of the object or distance you’re trying to measure. Make sure the starting edge of the measuring tool and the edge of the object are perfectly aligned in order to get an accurate measurement. If the starting edge of your tool is not marked with a “0,” you can also identify it by locating the number “1” on the tool. The end that comes just before the “1” mark on your measuring tool is the “0” end. Bring the measuring tool out along the length of the object as far as it can go. Keep the tool parallel to this length the entire way in order to ensure your measurement is accurate.  When using a measuring stick, the stick should lie flat against the edge or line being measured. When using measuring tape, the tape should wrap around the entire distance being measured. This is the last numbered value represented on the measuring tool before it...

TL;DR in English: Be sure to choose a measuring tool that measures in inches. Note how your measuring tool divides inches into fractions. Line up the start of your tool with 1 end of whatever you’re measuring. Extend the measuring tool down the object you’re measuring. Identify the last full inch your tool is measuring on the object. Count the unnumbered lines past the previous full inch value. Add the fractions you just counted to the full inch value.

Charolais are naturally horned, but because many Charolais in the United States have been bred with other breeds, polled (hornless) Charolais are fairly common as well. Purebred Angus cattle do not have horns, but those that have some Charolais genetics might. Charolais cattle have wide muzzles and strong jaws. Like the rest of their bodies, their heads are large and powerful looking.  Charolais cattle also have very muscular necks that hold their heads proud. Charolais cattle have large ears that stick out to the sides. Their eyes are set wide apart.

Muscle atrophy is the medical term used to denote the condition when a part of the body suffers muscle loss or when muscle tissue wastes away.  It's normal for muscle atrophy to occur as we age, but it can also be a sign of a more serious medical condition, illness, or injury. Muscle atrophy can negatively impact a person's quality of life because they lose strength and mobility, which can make it difficult to perform basic tasks. People with atrophied muscles are also at an increased risk for falling or injuring themselves. Since the heart is also a muscle that can break down, individuals experiencing muscle atrophy face the risk of heart problems. Muscles can atrophy from disuse, or when they are not used regularly at an appreciable level of exertion. This disuse causes the muscle tissue to break down, shorten in length, and waste away. This typically occurs as a result of an injury, sedentary lifestyle, or medical condition that prevents a person from exercising his muscles.  Disuse muscle atrophy can also result from severe malnourishment. For example, prisoners of war and people suffering from eating disorders such as anorexia may experience muscle loss and the wasting away of muscle tissue. People with jobs that require them to be seated for major portions of each work day or people who are not physically active can also experience this type of muscle atrophy. Severe injuries such as those to the spinal cord or brain may leave someone bedridden and result in atrophied muscles. Even common injuries such as broken bones or sprains that restrict your ability to move around can also cause disuse muscle atrophy. Medical conditions that limit a person's ability to exercise or be physically active include rheumatoid arthritis, which causes joint inflammation, and osteoarthritis, which weakens the bones. These conditions can make it uncomfortable, painful, or even impossible to exercise, leading to atrophied muscles. In many cases of disuse muscle atrophy, the loss of muscle tissue can be reversed by increasing...

This will help ensure it is recognized as an official document by the institution you are submitting it to.  You can find your closest notary public by searching online. There is even an official database of notary publics across the US. However, it is usually a good bet that there is one available at your local banking or governmental institution. Notary publics will probably charge you a small fee for their services. This is, after all, their business. As there are many different forms of income, there are also different types of documentation you may need to include. Check stubs are a good way to prove the steadiness of your current income. In the modern era, with electronic payrolls, you may not actually get check stubs. Direct deposit records should work well as income documentation if you do not have actual check stubs. Tax returns are a good way to document your income over time.  Tax records may be helpful if you have changed jobs recently, as they can show that you have consistently made an income, despite changes in employment. If you are self-employed, you may need to submit a variety of documents as your verification of income, including bank statements, tax forms and a financial statement from your accountant. This may include social security income, pensions, or retirements.  The Social Security Administration will provide you with an appropriate proof of income letter, if applicable.  You can also include documentation of employment insurance benefits as proof of income.

Peel the cucumbers, cut them into three or four parts, and then use an apple corer to remove the seed section in the middle. With the flat side on the cucumber chunk on a large grater, roughly grate the cucumber. The chunks do not need to be too small. Place the shredded cucumber in a sieve and drain the liquid into a cup. Press the cucumber in the sieve to encourage more of the moisture out. Set aside both the drippings and the cucumbers. Very finely dice garlic or run the garlic through a high quality garlic press. Then, mix the garlic together with a little olive oil and a half tablespoon of salt, preferably with a mortar and pestle but a bowl and fork/small potato masher can work okay. Line a sieve with coffee filters and then pour in your yogurt. Drain for about 15 minutes, stir carefully (do not disturb the filters) and allow to drain for another 15 minutes. Mix the container of yogurt, the drained cucumbers, and the garlic mixture together in a glass or stainless steel mixing bowl. Now, there are different schools of thought here. Different areas of Greece tend to use different spices, and tzatziki is prepared with non-traditional spices elsewhere in the world. You can choose which best suits you, or combine 2: lemon juice, wine vinegar, 1 tbsp fresh oregano, 1 tbsp fresh dill, or 1 tsp mint. Ground black pepper to taste is pretty standard, however. Cover with plastic wrap and set in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Twelve hours will produce a better tasting final product. The cucumber juice can be used to get a more sauce-like texture for use on salads or as a dressing on meat, or just a small amount can be added to get a stronger cucumber flavor. Enjoy your authentic Greek tzatziki! Traditionally it is served in a bowl with dipping bread, and topped with a light drizzle of olive oil, a few whole kalamata olives, and a sprig of oregano or other fresh herbs.

If you're overweight, talk with your doctor about safely losing weight. Your doctor or nutritionist can work with you to create a personalized weight loss plan. Even a small amount of weight loss can help to raise your HDL levels. Complex carbohydrates offer more fiber, which can increase your HDL while lowering LDL and triglycerides. Complex carbohydrates also take longer for your body to process, so you'll feel fuller longer. This may help you lose weight as well. To include complex carbohydrates, choose:  Beans Legumes Fruit (include the rind): plums, peaches, nectarines, apples Vegetables: artichokes, broccoli, brussels sprouts Oats Barley Millet Quinoa Buckwheat Rye Whole wheat breads and pasta Brown rice Choose lean meat like poultry. Avoid eating the skin which contains a lot of fat and cholesterol which may raise your LDL cholesterol levels. You can also eat wild-caught fish like salmon, cod, haddock, and tuna. These are also good sources of omega-3 fatty acids which can improve your HDL. Don't forget that beans are also a good source of protein which are high in fiber and low in fat. Try to eat one or two servings of beans a day.  Avoid red meat because it contains a high amount of cholesterol which can raise your LDL levels. When you do eat red meat, choose grass-fed (not corn-fed) red meat. Eggs are also a good source of protein, but the yolks are high in cholesterol. Choose egg whites or limit whole eggs to one or two a day. Foods containing soluble fiber have been associated with lower LDL. Soluble fiber is a form of fiber that dissolves in water to form a gel that slows digestion. Scientists theorize this form of fiber helps reduce LDL by binding to cholesterol particles in the digestive tract and preventing their absorption. Some food sources of soluble fiber include:  Oats Peas Beans Citrus fruit Carrots Barley Trans fats are artificially produced fats that raise LDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels. Studies have linked trans fats to increased risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2...

This allows space for flying and time apart. Although your birds will enjoy each other’s company, they also need time alone. A big cage allows them to be active and spend time away from their partner. This supports your birds’ good health, making them better parents. Each breeding pair that you own will need its own cage. Don’t try to keep them in a cage together, as they’ll be less likely to mate. The grate can be uncomfortable for your birds, and you want them to be cozy in their cage so they’ll mate. Newspaper is a cheap, safe option for a cage liner. Plus, your birds will enjoy tearing it up. Lay a couple of layers of newspaper over the floor of the cage. You need enough perches and swings for both birds to use them at the same time. However, your birds will enjoy having extra perches and swings if the cage allows enough space. Wood is the best material for the perches. Avoid choosing plastic options, as your birds will enjoy chewing on everything in the cage. It's best to choose a side-opening nesting box, which makes it easy to safely access it. The nesting box will have a hole on one side that the female can use to enter the box. She’ll then lay her eggs inside, where they’ll be safe.  The nest mimics how the birds prepare for mating in the wild. You can find a nesting box at a local pet store or online. Choose a dish that’s about 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep and 6 inches (15 cm) in diameter. The eggs will rest inside the dish, which helps keep them in the nest. Then, the chicks will hatch in the dish, which provides a good surface for their legs.  As another option, you can make or purchase a board that fits into the bottom of the nesting box. The board should have a concave dip carved into the center. Make sure that the dish is made from a nontoxic material, such as wood or glass. The wood shavings provide a nesting material for the birds that’s similar to what they like in nature. The female bird will also enjoy chewing on the wood shavings as she gets ready to mate. In the wild, females typically pick up...

If your hair is short, straight, light in color, undamaged, and neither very thick nor very fine, you may be able to successfully bleach it at home. If your hair does not meet all these criteria, you can certainly attempt to bleach it yourself, but you should be aware that the odds are significantly against you, particularly if you have never bleached hair before. Whatever kind of hair you have, if you decide to bleach it at home, you should be prepared for the possibility that it will go very wrong. If having fried, yellow hair for a while would make you feel awful, it’s best not to attempt this. You will need a powder bleach (like L’oreal Quickblue), developer (ideally the same brand as the bleach), toner (Manic Panic is a popular brand), a plastic mixing bowl, a plastic spatula, a plastic rat tail end brush, deep conditioner, a few pairs of rubber gloves, some cotton strips, and a friend to help you. There is no universal rule and you’ll need to follow the instructions on the bleach you purchased. Usually, though, the ratio is between 2:1 to 3:1 of developer to bleach. Use 10 or 20-volume peroxide developer for the best results. Higher volume developers will not lighten your hair better – just faster – and cause more damage. Be sure to mix the bleach thoroughly. Use a whisk and mix till no powder clumps remain. Use the tail end to section off very thin segments of hair, and the brush end to spread bleach onto both sides of your hair. Start at the crown and work down through the sides and back.  Start about 1 inch away from the scalp and work to the ends, saturating very thoroughly. Apply the bleach to thin sections of hair and put cotton strips at the roots – this will stop bleach from running toward the scalp. The parts of your hair that already have bleach on them will begin to lighten as you work. If you notice any spots you missed, reapply bleach to those areas. Consult the instructions that came with the bleach to determine how long you need to wait. Check your hair as you go. It will not be platinum...

Show your concern and care by offering her a safe space to talk about her mental health condition. Encourage her to talk about her feelings and try to listen to her without judging. Ask meaningful questions and be consistent about checking in, as many people with mental health disorders might have difficulty with emotional expression.  You might ask, “How I can support you right now? What do you need?”  Avoid asking questions that have a judgmental tone, such as “Why do you feel that way?”, “What's wrong with you?”, or “Shouldn't you be doing better by now?”  Tactfully ask about specific feelings or symptoms that you might not understand, such as what flashbacks or nightmares are like for someone who has been diagnosed with PTSD. You might say something like, "I have never experienced that before. Would you be comfortable telling me what that's like for you?" Make time to research and learn everything you can about his condition. You'll be better able to understand his perspective and help him if you know about symptoms, treatment, and what to expect for his specific diagnosis.  Look for online resources. The National Alliance on Mental Illness has many resources available for family and friends of people struggling with mental illness.  Look for books at your local library related to his diagnosis. Seek out reliable sources, such as books written by licensed counselors or medical doctors. Consult your librarian or the library's online portal if you need help. Talk to his doctor and/or offer to go to doctor's appointments with him.  Join a support group. Find online forums or local support groups for yourself. For example, if a loved one is struggling with an addiction and you're having difficulty relating to them, find an Al-Anon support group. Be patient with the other person and understand that even if she does seek treatment, she may struggle with her symptoms or diagnosis for a long time. She won't be cured overnight. Expect setbacks to occur and try to remember that the mental illness is not her fault. ...

TL;DR in English: Ask about the person's experience. Learn about the person's disorder. Manage your expectations. Find different ways to connect with the person.

If you can, run these wires on the opposite side of the car from the power wire. Make use of any available space underneath the carpet or side panels. The remote wire is usually colored blue, while the RCA wire has of red and white plugs. The remote and RCA wires should always be far from the power wire, if possible. Otherwise, they may interfere with one another and have a negative effect on the sound quality. In a lot of cars, the stereo stays attached to its enclosure through a series of plastic clips. You may need to pry off a few of the dashboard panels to be able to access them. Then, pry the clips up with a flathead screwdriver until you are able to slide the stereo toward you, exposing the wires connected to it.  Some stereos have screws that require a Phillips screwdriver to remove. The removal process varies between models, so refer to the owner’s manual for your car to get more specific details about how to access the stereo’s wiring. Pull the RCA cable through the stereo enclosure. Next, look for a series of red and white outlets on its back end. Push the corresponding RCA cables into the colored outlets. Note that the stereo may have several red and white outlets. Look for the ones labeled R/SW. They manage audio in the rear (R) part of your vehicle. Your stereo will have a bunch of colored wires inserted into a black connector. The blue wire may be plugged into this connector or left loose. The easiest way to join this wire with the one you’re using for the subwoofers is with a plastic connector, like a crimp connector or Posi-connector. Strip 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) off the remote wire and stereo wire, crimp them, then plug them into the connector so the exposed ends contact one another.  The blue wire on the stereo may be labeled remote, antenna, or amplifier. Another option for joining the wires is to solder them together. It involves stripping and heating them with a soldering iron. Place a shrink wrap tube afterward to protect the joint. You’re all done wiring the subwoofers to the stereo, so push...

TL;DR in English: Run the remote and RCA wires from the trunk to the stereo head. Pull out the stereo head to access the wires behind it. Plug the RCA cable into the colored connectors on the stereo. Connect the blue remote wire to the blue stereo wire. Replace the stereo in the enclosure.

Don’t leave the dog outside or in the garage. The dog may have trouble regulating its temperature and you won’t be able to close observe it for a change in symptoms. Provide a dog bed with blankets in a spot where you can easily and frequently monitor your dog. Choose blankets with your scent on them so that your dog will feel comforted. It’s a good idea to choose a spot with easily cleaned floors, such as in a bathroom or kitchen. Then, if your dog vomits or has an accident, you can clean it up easily and quickly. While your dog is sick, keep the sound down and lights low. Think about how you like the environment when you are sick. Your dog will appreciate similar ambience. Limit visitors and noise from vacuums, children, and the television. This will allow your dog to get the rest he needs. It is a good idea to keep your sick dog away from other dogs. This will help prevent any transmission of diseases. This quiet time will also give your dog some time to rest.

Any room can be adapted into a recording room, but your garage causes your drums to sound differently than your bedroom does. Large rooms with a lot of flat spaces create more echo and reverb. Small rooms with carpeting and furniture lead to quieter drumming.  If you want to record the drums and add reverb later, opt for a quiet space such as a room in your house. For a louder, more lively sound, choose a space like a garage with flat surfaces and not a lot of furniture. Walk around the room, clapping your hands. The sound quality you hear will change depending on where you stand. Pick a spot that offers the sound quality you need and note any spots you would like to alter before recording.  For example, being near glass may cause your drums to rattle or sound too high-pitched. Move your drums to a different spot. All rooms sound a little different, so you may have to switch rooms to get the sound quality you want. These blankets, used to insulate packed boxes, are a cheap way to dampen the sound. Hang them over flat walls, windows, and other surfaces. Staple them to pieces of plywood or paneling so they are easy to install in the room.  These blankets are available at general stores and may also be sold by moving companies. Other dampening items include carpeting, furniture, and insulation. Get some 4 ft × 8 ft (1.2 m × 2.4 m) plywood pieces from a home improvement store. Lean them against the walls in the recording room and place 1 in front of the kick drum. Plywood serves as a flat, reflective surface that livens up your drumming. Move any boxes or furniture into corners or out of the room.

TL;DR in English: Choose a room that suits the sound you're looking for. Experiment with the room's sound by clapping. Hang moving blankets around the room to quiet the drums. Cover the walls with plywood to record louder drumming.

Your doctor may be able to stop your contractions using intravenous fluids, especially if you’ve been dehydrated. You will need to contact your care provider for this treatment. Some infections can trigger early labor, so your doctor may be able to treat the underlying condition and stop your labor. To prevent this type of complication, visit your doctor immediately if you suspect you are ill. Your illness could also be passed along to your baby, so follow your doctor’s care instructions. Your doctor can prescribe tocolytics, which can stop contractions for up to two days. While they can’t completely stop preterm labor, they can help delay it, allowing you and your doctor more time to use other treatments. Tocolytics also allow you more time to move to another care facility that is better equipped to handle preterm labor and care for a premature baby. Your doctor likely won’t be able to use a tocolytic if you have complicating conditions, such as high blood pressure. While they won’t stop preterm labor, corticosteroids can speed up your baby’s lung development, making early delivery less risky. You will be given an injection of corticosteroids if you’re at risk of delivering between weeks 24 and 34. You may still receive them during weeks 34 and 36 if your doctor thinks you will deliver within the week, and you haven’t previously received the drugs. Like corticosteroids, magnesium sulfate will help you deliver more safely. This treatment will help babies born between weeks 24 and 32 avoid conditions that can occur in preterm babies.  Magnesium sulfate will be administered by injection. Your doctor will have to order a prescription, so ask your doctor if they recommend it in your case.  This medication is most often administered to women who have already been admitted to the hospital with preterm labor.

TL;DR in English: Get intravenous fluids to stay hydrated. Try antibiotics if an infection caused your contractions. Take tocolytics to potentially stop the contractions. Get an injection of corticosteroids. Use magnesium sulfate.

Before you can move in to a new apartment, you will have to fill out a few forms. You will likely need to submit to a credit check or background check before you can be approved for a lease, and your new landlord might also ask you to supply a list of references. Be prepared to provide supporting documents, such as:  Proof of employment or income, such as recent pay stubs or W2 forms. If you are about to start a new job, you may need a letter from your new employer. Your photo ID. Personal references (e.g., from professors or employers).  Information about your co-signer, if you have one. This may be necessary if you have poor credit, no credit history, or don’t meet the minimum income requirement for the apartment. Many apartments require a fee for your application and credit check. These fees can range from $15-20 sometimes coming up to $100 or more in the U.S. If you won’t be moving into your apartment right away, your landlord may also ask you to pay a deposit so they can hold your apartment while you’re getting ready to move in.  If you are approved, you may need to pay additional fees, such as a security deposit or pet deposit. Check the laws in your area to make sure the landlord or management company is not charging you illegal fees. For example, in Boston, it is illegal for landlords to charge application fees, credit check fees, finder’s fees, or a fee for holding an apartment. Once you’re approved for an apartment, you’ll be given a lease or rental agreement. Before signing, review your lease to make sure you understand the terms. Read the fine print carefully, and bring up any concerns you have with the landlord or property manager. If you have the means to do so, it's also worth considering having an attorney take a look at the lease. They can help you renegotiate/understand it. Doing a walk-through can help you spot any issues that need to be resolved right away. It is also helpful to have a record of any problems that were present before you moved in. That way, you’ll be able to prove to your...

The first place to look for a good tattoo artist is your social circle. Word of mouth is often the best way to get clear, honest information about a shop. If you have friends with tattoos you find beautiful, ask them, “What is the name of your tattoo artist? What was your experience with the artist like? Would you recommend them?” You should only ask friends with quality tattoos for referrals. Ask if you can check out their piece, and take mental notes about its quality. Assess the level of detail in the work. Look for clear, crisp, and thin lines. Check for pigment that’s faded or bled out, as if someone held a marker to a piece of paper for too long. Once you have a few potential shops, check their websites and social media pages. Browse through their portfolios to get a better idea of their quality and style, and narrow your list to include the style or styles most consistent with your aesthetic.  While you’re checking websites and social media pages, look for comments, complaints, and reviews from past clients. Looking at portfolios and pictures of tattoos an artist has done can help you find one with the style you're looking for. After checking shops out online, your next step is to visit in person. If it appears dingy, dirty, or unprofessional, find another shop. Look for evidence of sanitary practices, such as:  Clean, well-organized workspace and tools. Tattoo needles still in sterile packaging and only opened in front of clients--the best shops use all disposable materials. Sterilizing equipment, such as an autoclave and chemical, steam, or ultrasonic cleaners. Artists sterilize all reusable items. Artists wash their hands, wear gloves, and cover surfaces with plastic (like the cords, machines, tablets, and chairs).

TL;DR in English: Ask friends with tattoos for a referral. Check your friends’ tattoos for quality. Look through tattoo shops’ online presence. Visit the shop and check for sanitary conditions.

This may sound like terrible advice, but enjoying yourself is the best way to get rid of homesickness.  Moving somewhere new offers you the chance to choose how you want to spend your free time.  Focus on yourself; it’s important to do every once and a while, and being somewhere new provides the perfect opportunity to do so. Tricks to enjoying the solitary life include:  Exercise.  Get your heart rate up every day, however you prefer to do so.  Jogging is a great way to see your new neighborhood from a personal perspective. This will teach you about your new environment and make you feel more comfortable. Carry something to keep you occupied.  If you keep a journal, always have it with you.  Or, carry a book or magazine.  Reading and writing are great ways to both occupy your mind and express your thoughts. Do that thing you’ve always wanted to do.  Skydive.  Or, if it’s more your pace, go to an art museum.  Think back to the last time you thought to yourself, “I’d like to try that.”  Whatever it was, here’s your chance! Don’t confuse being alone in a new place with automatic loneliness.  There’s no rule that states being alone means you must feel lonely.  Remind yourself of this, out loud if you have to. Other helpful things to tell yourself include:  My time alone is only temporary. I may want to be somewhere else today, but it will get better here. Everybody feels lonely from time to time. I am strong and creative enough to handle some time alone. There are people in the world that care about me, however far away. I’m hanging out with myself right now, and that’s probably something I should do from time to time.

A safe location should be away from traffic and stores entrances, in a spot that allows for extended or overnight parking. Some locations have strict rules in place and prohibit overnight parking, so you may become towed or fined if you park in these locations.  Whether or not sleeping in your car will get you a ticket is totally dependent on where you are. Check local and state regulations whenever traveling. Never sleep on the side of the road or highway. Park at a designated rest stop, or 24-hour parking lot. Many interstates and highways have overnight rest stops you can park at and sleep in overnight while on road trips. This is really the best option to avoid interruption either by the public or by law enforcement. Find a 24-hour store. Walmart is the big name in this category. Some locations have explicit rules against over-nighters, however, so check online or in the store before you shut eyes for the night. Park somewhere reasonably well-lit. Though it might seem counter-intuitive to trying to sleep, it's best for your safety to park in a lot with plenty of light. Leave the keys out of the ignition. There is the possibility of breaking the law if you fall asleep with your keys in the ignition; you may be considered "in operation" of your car while asleep. Keep your doors locked and your keys in your pocket. If you're traveling in very cold temperatures, you may need to wake up periodically to run the car for warmth. Be sure to stay awake while the car is running. By allowing air to enter or circulate throughout the inside of the car, you will sleep more comfortably and avoid waking up feeling hot and sticky, or with condensation on the windows.  If you end up somewhere relatively populated or crowded, this might not be the best idea. The noise level might be too much to bear with cracked windows. You'd also like to avoid anyone looking in on you. This is also not necessary or even advisable if you're traveling in very cold temperatures. Luckily when the car isn't in motion you'll have a variety of...

If you are standing somewhere where the ground is uneven, stand on the higher ground. This should help you get more on their level. If you are outside near a parking lot or empty street, try standing on the curb to increase your height. This will also prevent your significant other from having to bend down a lot to get to your level. If you are walking around in the woods or someone’s backyard, you can stand on a rock or tree stump to increase your height. Avoid wearing heels or uncomfortable shoes if you plan to do this.

Use your main color for the fabric, and your accent color for any ornaments. If your color scheme has more than 1 color, choose the color that you like the best. Alternatively, you can use 1 color for half of the chairs, and the other color for the other half. You can create different looks just by changing the material for your sash. For example, a rosette knot can give your chair a rustic look if you use a burlap or raw linen sash.  Burlap and raw linen are great for a rustic barn-yard look. Use patterned scarves for a boho look. If you want something fancier, try chiffon, dupioni silk, lace, organza, satin, or tulle. Mix and match textures. Layer white or ivory lace over burlap for a boho-chic touch. If the sash is wired, like wired ribbon, you can fold the tails into ripples, or wrap them into coils. This will give your sashes some movement and make them look more interesting. Instead of just cutting them straight across, consider cutting them at an angle or into a dovetail. If the sash begins to fray, you can try singeing the cut ends with a flame or with a fray check. Fray check is a type of glue that you use to stop fabric from fraying. You can find it at a fabric store. This works great with all types of bows. Pull the tails behind the sash that is around the chair. The tension created by wrapping the sash in the first place should be enough to hold them in place.

TL;DR in English: Choose colors that coordinate with your color scheme. Play around with the type of fabric. Leave the tails hanging loose for a romantic look. Trim the ends of the tails if they are too long. Tuck the tails behind the sash for a streamlined look.

There are countless different objects you can choose to fossilize. Shells and animal bones are best for their distinctive shapes. Plants and leaves can be scooped up from the backyard or nearby park and fossilized as well. For the sake of demonstrating the fossilization process, you should choose something organic. Plastic toys of bugs and animals should be used in lieu of the real thing. Wait until the mould has solidified before you go any further. Using plaster of Paris, the mixture should dry completely within a couple of hours. Heating the mould at 250 degrees Fahrenheit for an hour will speed up the process of solidification. If you've left an imprint for decoration's sake, chiselling at the mould itself will make it look like you recently dug it up. Take a hammer and chip away at the sides and corners of your block. Add small dents and imperfections. Although you shouldn't go overboard with your chiselling, the weather-worn look will add to the effect of your fossil display.

After determining what type of pillow you think might be right for you, look around online. Read reviews for different pillows before going shopping, especially if you are thinking of buying a special pillow, such as an anti-snoring or cooling pillow, which can be expensive, and may not do what it claims to do. The best pillow for you may not be the most expensive one. Try out different pillows in different price ranges. Many stores that sell pillows also sell mattresses. If you can, take the pillow and lie down with it for a few minutes to try it out. This will give you a more realistic idea of whether the pillow is right for you or not. If you are unable to lie down with a pillow, try standing next to a wall in your favorite sleeping position. Place the pillow against the wall. If the pillow you are testing works with your body, your neck should be aligned with your spine. It may be difficult to tell on your own if your neck is not aligned, so bring a friend along to help you. Some stores, such as Ikea, offer the opportunity to return your pillow if you are not happy with it. Before purchasing a pillow, ask about the return policy.

TL;DR in English: Read reviews online before going shopping. Understand that price isn’t everything. Lie down with the pillow. Stand close to a wall. Ask about trial periods and money back guarantees.

Raising the head 4 inches (10 cm) with 1 to 2 pillows can make it easier to breathe and encourage the tongue and jaw to move forward. You can buy specially designed pillows to keep the neck muscles relaxed and open, leading to a reduction or elimination of snoring when sleeping. Keep in mind it can be difficult for someone who snores to not move or shift throughout the night, which could lead to moving off the pillows or falling back into a position that could lead to snoring. You can counter this by having the snorer put tennis balls in the back of their night clothes or using a snore pillow. This will cause mild discomfort when rolling over or moving around at night and can prevent the snorer from shifting in their sleep. Dry air can irritate your nose and throat and lead to congestion and snoring at night. If the person who snores has issues with swollen nasal tissues, it can help to sleep with a humidifier on. Keeping the air moist throughout the night can help ensure better, snore-free sleep. Some couples, families, and roommates decide it might be best to have separate bedrooms for sleeping, especially if the snoring is a chronic issue. It can be difficult, especially for couples, to sleep in separate rooms if one person feels guilty or resentful due to interrupted sleep. Take the time to talk to the snorer about this possibility. Explain that your sleep is lacking due to the person's snoring and you feel it would be best for your sleep routine and your relationship if you slept in separate rooms. Snoring is a physical issue that is the result of other issues or ailments. It is in the hands of any adult who snores to find a solution, medical or otherwise, for their snoring. However, if none of the solutions seem to work, separate bedrooms may be your only option if the issue is with an adult. If you're a parent with a child who snores, they will need your help to stop snoring.

TL;DR in English: Use pillows to elevate the sleeper's head. Keep the bedroom moist with a humidifier. Consider separate bedrooms if the snoring is too loud.

The only definitive way to know if you have a blood clot in your leg is to get a medical diagnosis. If you have any symptoms of a blood clot in your leg without the signs of PE, schedule an appointment with your healthcare provider as soon as possible. Make sure to let the office know why you’re calling so that they can schedule you without delay. Your health care provider will perform a full examination, run diagnostic tests, and prescribe or recommend the proper course of treatment based on your condition. Answer any questions your doctor may have about your symptoms and when they started as well as what makes them better or worse. Make sure to let your doctor know about any medication you’re taking, if you’ve ever been treated for cancer, or if you’ve had any recent surgeries or injuries. Before your doctor orders more involved tests, they will perform a physical exam to check for signs of DVT you may have overlooked. Your doctor will check your legs for the signs of DVT. In addition, your healthcare provider will measure your blood pressure and listen to your heart and lungs. Let your doctor know if there is any part of the exam that causes you pain, such as if you experience pain when taking a deep breath while the doctor listens to your heart and lungs with a stethoscope. Your doctor may order additional tests to determine whether or not you have DVT or how serious your condition is. The most common diagnostic tests for DVT are:  Ultrasound, which is the most common test for DVT. It makes a picture of the veins and arteries in your leg so your doctor can better assess any clot. D-dimer test, which measures a substance in your blood that is released when a clot breaks up. High levels can indicate a deep vein blood clot. Spiral CT of chest or ventilation/perfusion (VQ) scan to rule out pulmonary embolism. Venography, which is done when an ultrasound doesn’t give your doctor a clear diagnosis. This procedure requires injecting a dye and then getting an x-ray that illuminates the vein. The x-ray can...
