Use what you’ve learned. Stay close to him. Do not change who you are.

Purchase or borrow a camera that is good for use in landscape photography. The camera must have the capability for manual focus and remote shutter release. A digital display is also useful for lining up your shot and for correcting unforeseen image quality issues mid-shoot.  Digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) cameras are ideal for photographing lightning. Compact "point and shoot" cameras often respond too slowly and don't always have the required features. If you would like to use a compact camera, test it out first. While not necessary, a wide-angle zoom lens works best for lightning photography. The wide angle will allow you to fit more into the shot, maximizing your chances of catching an interesting lightning strike. Meanwhile, a zoom lense will give you the ability of adjusting the focal length to target a specific area. This option is especially useful in case the storm shifts position or you decide to focus on an interesting nearby object instead of the horizon. Not only is trying to take photographs in the middle of a storm dangerous, but it is also unlikely to produce quality photos. The optimal distance for lightning photographs is somewhere between roughly 6 and 10 miles from the storm. Any closer is too dangerous. Any further will likely give you small, blurry lightning strikes that look relatively unimpressive.  Figure out which direction the storm is moving. It's best to position yourself so that the storm moves across your field of view rather that towards or away from it. This will ensure that the storm will remain an optimal distance from you for as long as possible.  There are a few ways to determine a storm's direction. If the storm is moving fast enough, you can easily see its pattern of movement and use a compass. However, if you have access to the Internet, the most accurate way is to check your local meteorologist for details or use a storm tracking application.  Pick an interesting vantage point. The best lightning photographs are usually framed in such a way to include something else...

TL;DR in English: Pick the right camera. Attach an optional specialty lens to your camera. Find a suitable location. Set up some type of camera support. Stay safe.

Wearing latex or nitrile gloves will protect your hands from the dye. Put on a pair of clean gloves before mixing and applying the dye. You should also put on a hairdresser’s cape or an old shirt to avoid getting dye or developer on your clothes. To protect your bathroom or kitchen counters, spread newspaper out around the sink. Most developer to dye ratios are 1 part hair color to 2 parts developer. Check the ratio on the hair dye package to be sure you are using the recommended amount. If you are not sure about the ratio, don't guess. If you don't mix the right ratio, your hair color may not come out as desired. Ask a professional hair stylist or visit a salon and allow them to dye your hair for you. Combine the correct amounts of developer and hair dye together in a plastic bowl. Mix the developer and dye together using a plastic spoon. Make sure the dye and developer are well combined. Then, apply the mixture to your hair as desired.  If you want to dye all of your hair, then apply the dye to your whole head starting at the ends and working up toward the roots of your hair. If you just want to highlight your hair, you will need to section your hair and apply the dye to specific sections only. You can use foil strips to wrap each section and prevent the dye from getting on the surrounding strands.

TL;DR in English: Wear gloves and a hairdresser's cape. Identify the developer to dye ratio on the package. Mix the developer and the dye together.

Keep the big picture in mind as you work. Think about how homework will help you get good grades, get into college, or achieve your dreams. You can also think about what fun things you can do once your homework is finished.  Homework may seem boring, but it's an important tool for learning new skills. Try to remember that doing your homework will teach you important things for your future. Remind yourself that if you finish now, you'll have more free time later. You might say to yourself, "If I get this all done today, I won't have to do anything on Saturday." You may need to take some time to get your brain back into study mode, especially if you’re doing your homework after dinner. It’ll be easier to focus on boring homework if your brain is ready to work. Reading is a great way to warm up your brain. Read a newspaper article that catches your eye, a chapter from your favorite book or a section of a magazine. When possible, homework should be done on a set schedule as part of a daily routine. Boring homework won’t seem as boring if you know that it’s homework time instead of struggling to find time to get to your homework.  Find a routine that works best for you. You might prefer to tackle your homework as soon as you come home from school to get it out of the way, or you might want to take 20 minutes to relax first and then start on your homework. Whatever routine works for you, it’s important that you stick to it. Try to do your homework in the same place and at the same time each day so your routine becomes second nature. Determine what time of day you work best, such as the morning, afternoon, or evening. Schedule your homework sessions for these times. Take a few moments to plan out how you are going to do your homework. By creating a plan, the workload will seem more manageable because you’ll know exactly what is coming next.  Write your plan as a to do list. Once you finish a task, you can cross it off your list. Schedule your homework into sections. It’s less overwhelming if your homework is...

TL;DR in English: Remind yourself how homework will help you. Warm up your brain. Stick to a routine. Create a plan for finishing your homework. Take breaks. Reward yourself.

One of the toughest things for people to understand after losing a dog is that a new dog is not, and should not be looked at, as a replacement for your old dog.  Nothing will every replace your old dog.  Your new dog will have a different personality and quirks, and you will need to build a whole new relationship with it. It can help to get a different breed or a different sex when selecting a new dog.  This can help you not to make comparisons between your old dog and new dog. Depending on how long you had your previous dog, your living situation might have changed significantly since you first got it.  When deciding what type of dog to get, consider your new situation.  This can affect such things as whether you want a big dog or little one, a puppy or a mature dog, or a long-haired or short-haired one.  Ask yourself some of the following questions to help you decide which type of dog will best suit your new needs and lifestyle:  Are you living in an apartment or a home with a backyard? If you work full-time, is there anyone who can help you with training your new dog? What type of climate do you live in? How much time and energy are you willing and able to put into taking care of a new dog? Your health may have changed since you adopted your last dog as well.  You must also take this into consideration when you’re trying to figure out what kind of dog to get.  Larger breeds will need more physical activity than smaller breeds.  Different breeds have different energy levels as well.  Choose a dog that will be compatible with your current abilities. Taking into consideration your current situation, list all the qualities you want in your new dog, starting with the most important at the top.  This will make it easier to focus on the qualities that are most important when you’re picking out your new dog.

TL;DR in English: Understand your new dog is not a replacement. Think about your current living situation. Evaluate your physical capabilities. Make a list of qualities you want in a dog.

While being his friend, you should have learned his likes and dislikes—about girls and in general. Use these things to your advantage. Show him that the two of you have similar interests in hobbies or activities. Also, show him that you have the personality traits that he is attracted to. Don’t lose the friendship that you have created. This shows him that you appreciate him as a person. When he realizes that you are attracted to him, it will help create the image of you as “the whole package.” Men want to be with someone that they are friends with and are attracted to. While you want to adopt the personality traits that he’s attracted to, you don’t want to completely change who you are. Find a way to merge the traits that he likes with your own. This way, the relationship has a chance long-term.

TL;DR in English:


Visit skate parks. Make friends who skate. Follow pro skaters. Defend yourself from critics. Take a friend with you to the skate park.

A movie night in with your best pal is a classic and affordable way to reconnect. Half of the fun is picking out the movie and deciding on a comedy, horror, action, or drama piece. Make sure you don’t spend so long debating on which movie to watch that you run out of time to actually watch it.  Don’t forget the snacks. Make flavored popcorn for a traditional movie treat or order take-out if you’re hungrier. Instead of a movie you can also marathon a tv show together. It doesn’t matter if you don’t consider yourselves to be great cooks, you can still have fun figuring out a recipe together. Either you manage to create an amazing dish, or fail miserably and have a source of laughter and entertainment. Pick out a recipe and go shopping for the ingredients together to make a whole day of it. Arts and crafts doesn’t just have to bring up memories of pasty kindergarten fingers and construction paper. Make cards for upcoming holidays or birthdays, or put together some wall art for your new room or apartment. Let your inner child loose and be creative.Try something challenging like glass blowing or welding. Ask around at art shops in your area for classes available to the public.Not only does working in one of these studios provide excitement, you also get to walk away with a keepsake to remember the experience by. Dusting furniture and mopping floors is rarely fun when you’re by yourself. But crank up the music with your best friend and start dancing your chores to completion. You’ll feel both productive and cheerful when accompanied by a companion.  If necessary, bribe them with baked goods in return for their help with your janitorial tasks. Return the favor and help clean their house the next week. Helping each other with the weekly chores list can help the tasks feel less mundane.

TL;DR in English: Rent a movie together. Cook a meal. Do some arts and crafts. Do the housework.

Older children may not know how to deal with feeling stressed, uneasy, or anxious and may turn to thumbsucking to self-soothe. Talk to your child about ways to feel calm and practice them together. Help them recognize when they start to feel stressed or anxious, then practice calming techniques, such as deep breathing. Have your child use their senses to feel calm. For example, have them take 3 deep breaths or close their eyes and imagine a forest. Label their stress as a monster so that they can learn to self-monitor. For example, say, “Looks like your anxiety monster is coming to visit. Let’s take 3 deep breaths so they go away.” Your child might suck their thumb for attention or to see how you react. They might enjoy watching you get angry or frustrated. If you think this might be the case, ignore the behavior completely. This will show your child that you’re not willing to engage on the behavior and it will likely stop on its own.If your child says, “Hey Dad, look!” and shows you they’re thumbsucking, stay composed and don’t react.

TL;DR in English: Help them deal with stress and anxiety. Ignore attention-seeking behavior.

If you’re thinking about doing a water fast, consult your healthcare provider. Though fasting may offer health benefits for some people, others should avoid it. Be sure to discuss your medications and medical conditions with your doctor to determine if water fasting is safe for you. They will likely perform a physical exam and possibly do some blood tests. If you take medication, you will have to discuss with your doctor whether to continue to take your medication while fasting, or if any dose changes need to occur. It’s best to fast only with a doctor’s supervision and input, especially if you’re fasting over 3 days or have any medical conditions. Find a doctor who is trained in fasting and have them guide you and monitor your condition during the fast. Ask your primary doctor to supervise you or suggest another professional who can. After 2-3 days of water fasting you may experience dizziness if you stand up too quickly. Avoid this by getting up slowly and doing some deep breathing before standing. If you do get dizzy, immediately sit or lie down until it passes. You can also try putting your head between your knees. If you become so dizzy that you lose consciousness, stop fasting and see your doctor. It’s not uncommon to feel some dizziness, a little weakness, nausea, or occasional skipped heartbeats while fasting. However, stop fasting and seek medical attention if you lose consciousness, feel confused, have more heart palpitations than one or two a day, have severe stomach discomfort or headache, or any other symptom that feels alarming to you. You may experience a drop in stamina and energy during this time. Don't overexert yourself. Maintain healthy sleep patterns.  Fasting is all about rest - physical, emotional, sensory and physiological.  If you feel like napping, nap. Read uplifting material. Listen to your body and don’t push yourself physically. If you feel tired and “out of it,” do not operate a vehicle. Your energy may fluctuate between feeling weak and tired and feeling energetic. Even when...

TL;DR in English: Visit your doctor before water fasting. Fast under supervision of a trained professional. Avoid dizziness. Differentiate normal from abnormal side effects. Get plenty of rest during your water fast. Avoid intense exercise during this time.

Before you get started writing, you need to know who you're writing for. Your bio is your first introduction to your audience. It should quickly and effectively communicate who you are and what you do. The bio you would write for a personal web page might be very different than the bio you would write for a college application. Adjust your tone to make your bio appropriately formal, funny, professional, or personal. One of the best ways to understand what your audience will expect from your bio is to look at the bios others in your field have written. For example, if you're writing a professional bio for your website in order to market yourself and your skills, look at websites created by others in your field. See how they present themselves, and figure out what you think they do well. Good places to look for professional bios could be professional websites, Twitter accounts and LinkedIn pages. Be ruthless here—–even the most interesting of anecdotes may not be appropriate. For example, an author's bio on a book jacket often mentions past writing accomplishments, whereas an athlete's bio on a team website often mentions the person's height and weight. While it's often okay to add a few extraneous details, they should not make up the majority of your bio. Remember that your credibility is important here. While you may enjoy going on pub crawls with your buddies on a weekend, that may not be what you want to advertise in a bio aimed at finding a job. Keep your details relevant and informative. . Writing in the third person will make your bio sound more objective – like it’s been written by someone else – which can be useful in a formal setting. Experts recommend that you always write professional bios in the third person. For example, begin your bio with a sentence such as "Joann Smith is a graphic designer in Boston," rather than "I am a graphic designer in Boston." This should be the first thing you write. Assume that the people reading the bio know nothing about you. Give your full preferred name, but avoid...

TL;DR in English: Identify your purpose and audience. Look at examples directed toward your target audience. Narrow down your information. Write in the third person Begin with your name. State your claim to fame. Mention your most important accomplishments, if applicable. Include personal, humanizing details. Conclude by including information on any projects you have in the works. Include contact information. Aim for at least 250 words. Proofread and revise. Keep your bio up to date.

There are a lot of skate parks out there, with different types of obstacles and ramps. To act like a skater girl, hang out there! You can practice your own skating and watch people with more experience skate. It’s a good way to learn. A lot of cities have skate parks in them, so check your city's website for a list of skate parks. You can also ask your friends who already skate which parks they hang out in. While you’re at the skate park, start a conversation with other skaters. Tell them you’re just starting out and you’re hoping to get any pointers. It’s a good way to get better at skating and make friends. When you're at the skate park or hanging out with your skater friends, chances are the topic of pro skaters will come up. Follow pro skaters so you can contribute to the conversation, but also so you can learn new tricks. Watching the X-Games is a great way to get started on following pro skateboarders. Some skaters might feel a little threatened by new skaters, and criticize you for not being able to skate. In that situation, it's best to remember that every skater had a point when they couldn't skate, and directly confront them about what they said. For example, you might hear someone say "Look at this poser! She can't even skate!" at the skate park. Turn around and say to the person, "Oh, I didn't realize you were a perfect skater the first time you ever tried!" Just getting a response is usually enough to shut the critics up. If you're really nervous about going to a skate park alone, ask a friend to go with you. It should be someone who is also interested in learning to skate, or who already knows how. It can make you feel more comfortable as you learn. When you ask a friend to go with you, tell them why. You can say something like "I really want to start skating, but I'm a little nervous about going alone. Would you go with me?"

Most people have experienced an emotional reaction to a piece of music. It might be hearing a favorite song from high school, your wedding dance song, or an old family favorite that provokes a very real mental and physical reaction in people. Certain pieces of music can transport an individual to a different time and place. In other words, music can temporarily remove us from reality. Music can create euphoric reactions in individuals. And like everything relating to music, it's all about your personal tastes. Want to feel dizzy and disoriented? Kids are the experts! Think back to your younger years. Remember the exhilarating feeling you got from spinning around and around in circles until you fell down? Why not try it again! You could also turn somersaults,  or grab your friends and head to the local park or playground. Find a hill to roll down, or go as high as you can on the swings. Fear can elicit many of the same feelings that being drunk can cause. One of the common denominators is feeling a loss of control. When done responsibly, this feeling of being out of control can cause a rush of adrenaline--and excitement. Also, after your mind logically realizes that you are not actually in any danger, a sense of giddiness and light-heartedness can set in. Which makes the fear worth it! There are lots of ways to scare yourself. Grab a creepy book, or watch a thriller on tv. Better yet, grab your friends and have a camp out in the backyard. Have a competition to see who can cause the most shrieking with the scariest ghost story. Feeling groggy is one of the most common reactions to drinking alcohol. You can try to mimic that by making yourself as tired as possible. Push yourself to stay up later than normal, and read or watch television until you are forcing yourself to keep your eyes open. This will feel like you've had too much to drink. It's not a good idea to try this one when you have an important day at school or work coming up. Or a lot of any kind of caffeine. Too much caffeine in any form is going to...

TL;DR in English: Turn on some tunes. Channel your inner child. Scare yourself silly. Stay up too late. Drink coffee.

Almost all app-creation programs will require you to create an account and log in before you can get to work. You may need to download software, or apps may be created entirely through the website. After logging into the creation tools or downloading the creation software, you will need to start a new project. The process varies from program to program, but generally involves naming your app a name and description. Most app development programs will ask you to set a basic theme and color palette before you begin building the app. You will be able to change these choices later once the app is under construction. You may be able to add your own images for screen backgrounds. These images should typically be 1024 X 768 px. Most app creation programs work by letting you add prebuilt functions into your app. The combination of these functions and how they link together is what will make your app yours. There are a variety of different functions you can add to your app, including calendars, photo galleries, podcasts, Facebook integration, audio players, and more.  Typically, each one of these functions will be its own screen on your app. As you add functions, you will be able to customize each screen with your own text and content. For example, if you add an RSS feed function, you can link to your blog's feed and automatically populate the app with your latest posts. After you've added a few functions to your app, spend some time organizing the layout of each screen so that you have a cohesive look for your app. Your title bars should all be in the same location, and content should appear in consistent parts of the screen. Different app creation programs will give you different levels of control over how everything is laid out. Some apps only let you add completely prebuilt functions, while others allow you to drag and rearrange each element on the screen. You will have the opportunity to assign icons to each of your app's functions. Many app creation programs have a library of icons you can choose from, or you can...

TL;DR in English: Log in to the program you choose. Start a new project. Choose a theme. Add functions, or activities, to your app. Adjust the layout of each of your screens. Choose icons for your functions.

One trick you can use is to put regular nail polish on before the glow-in-the-dark variety. You will want to paint your nails with a regular nail polish or nail polish base first.  This will make it easier to remove the glow-in-the-dark nail polish later if you want to do so. It will also help people see it. It’s a good idea to choose a lighter color base, or you will need to apply more coats of the glow-in-the-dark nail polish. Choose neutral colors. White is a good choice, or just a clear gloss or light beige color. Now you’re ready to put the glow-in-the-dark nail polish on your fingernails. This can be a great idea for Halloween!  You might need three to four coats of the polish for the effect to take its full effect. Apply a coat, let it dry, and then apply another coat. You may need fewer coats, perhaps as few as two, if you’ve used a lighter nail polish color like white as the base. It will take your nail polish a little longer to dry than normal, so make sure that you don’t touch anything for awhile or you could ruin your nails. Now that you’ve put the glow-in-the-dark nail polish on, you’re ready to check out the effects!  You could test out the glowing effect in a dark room if you’re too excited to wait until it’s actually dark outside. The effect isn’t going to last forever. The glowing effect on your nails will probably only last for a couple of hours. You could always reapply more polish if you notice the glowing effect starting to wear off. You’re going to need a black light in order to make the highlighter glow, and some highlighters won’t work. However, it's possible to use some highlighters to make your nails glow!  Yellow highlighter is a good choice because it usually does glow. You can check the highlighter under a black light before you paint your nails. Apply a base of nail polish before applying the highlighter to your nails. This is because highlighter will stain your nails. Use the highlighter pens to draw on your nails. Then put your nails under black light for a few seconds. Apply a...

TL;DR in English: Put regular nail polish on first. Apply the glowing polish. Wait until it’s dark! Try using a highlighter pen. Finished.

Has it been a long time since he’s been fishing?  Does he love bowling but never get to go?  Is there a movie out that he would like to see? Even if your dad’s choice is not your favorite activity, go along with it, you’ll have a lot more fun than you think! Plan a day and time, and help your dad get everything ready beforehand.  Remember to check the weather, and have a backup plan in mind, in case it’s too stormy or cold to go out.  Here are some ideas for outdoor activities you could do with your dad:  Go on a fishing trip.  Be sure to get any licenses you need first, and pay attention to your dad’s instructions about safety and being quiet. Go for a hike..  Find a trail near your home that is good for families.  Be sure to bring snacks and water. Go to a baseball/football/soccer game. Fly a kite.  You can have even more fun if you build the kite together first.  Go to the zoo!  It’s probably been ages since your dad has been to the zoo.  Be sure to ask him what his favorite animal is, and to tell you about any that he’s seen in real life, or his favorite trip to the zoo when he was a kid. Try playing disc golf.  Disc golf is a great sport that dads and kids can play together.  It doesn’t require much equipment, anyone can play, and there are courses all over the world.  See if there is one near you! There are also lots of great activities you and your dad can do indoors when the weather is bad, or if your dad is not the outdoorsy type.  Here are some ideas:  Go to the movies.

The best way to keep your sangria warm all through the evening is to let it simmer in a slow cooker (or crock pot). You could also allow it to simmer in a large pot or saucepan on the stovetop, if you don’t have a slow cooker. Rather than getting out your stemware, choose mugs for serving hot sangria. Not only will the mugs keep the sangria warmer than thin glasses, they also have a nice handle for holding on to the hot beverage. Hot sangria could potentially crack thin glasses, so avoid using these to serve hot sangria. You want all your spices and flavors to combine nicely, so this is an important step. Though you could simply heat the mixture and serve it, letting it simmer for a bit longer creates a more complex and nuanced flavor. Just be sure to keep the burner or slow cooker on a low setting. A cinnamon stick is the perfect garnish -- and stir stick -- for spicy, hot sangria. Pop 1 in each glass before serving. Add an apple or orange slice to the rim of the glass or pop a few fresh cranberries on top.

TL;DR in English: Serve hot sangria from the stovetop or a slow cooker. Choose heat-resistant glasses for serving hot sangria. Let hot sangria simmer for 20 to 30 minutes before serving. Garnish the drink with fruit and a cinnamon stick.

Click or double-click the Terminal app icon—which resembles a black box with a white ">_" in it—or press Ctrl+Alt+T at the same time. Type in traceroute followed by the IP address or the website you want to trace. For example, to trace the route from your router to a server for Facebook, you would type in traceroute www.facebook.com. This will run the "traceroute" command. In the left-hand side of each new line that appears, you should see the IP address of a router through which your trace request is processed. You'll also see the number of milliseconds it took for the process to occur on the far-right side of the line.  If you see a line of asterisks appear for one of the routes, it means that the server to which your computer was supposed to connect timed out, thus resulting in a different address being tried. The traceroute command will time out after it reaches its destination.

TL;DR in English: Open Terminal on your computer. Type in the "traceroute" command. Press ↵ Enter. Review the route your request takes.

You will need to reward your dog when he shakes. Bite-sized treats are good for training because you can give your dog more of them without feeding them too many extra calories. Also consider what your dog likes and what will motivate them: does your dog like soft treats or hard treats? Is there a certain flavor that your dog seems to respond to more? Figure out which treat works best for your particular dog and have them on-hand for training.  Try making your own treats.  These could be small pieces of cooked meat or even some fruits and vegetables. Don't overfeed your dog.  Keep treat sizes as small as you can. Do not feed your dog the following food items, as they can cause poisoning or illness: avocado, chocolate, bread dough, grapes, raisins, hops, ethanol, moldy foods, macadamia nuts, xylitol, onions, garlic. The only way a dog can shake hands is if they are sitting.  If your dog doesn't know how the command for sit, you will need to teach them to sit first. Don't reward the dog with the treat here, as you are teaching him how to shake, not sit. You won't be giving the treat to your dog just yet.  For now, simply keep the treat in your left hand.  Bring the treat in front of your dogs nose, showing it to him.  Once you have his attention, close your fist around the treat.  Don't let the dog grab the treat from you yet. Hold the treat between your thumb and your palm. " This is the command you will use to ask your dog to shake (you can also say something else like "Shake" if you prefer). Say this as you hold the fist with the treat in front of your dog. Once your dog realizes you have a treat in your closed hand, they will try to get it from you. When they make a move toward the behavior you want — such as lifting a paw to try and get the treat from your fist — say "Yes!" with a lot of enthusiasm and excitement and give them the treat.  When your dog makes a move toward the behavior you want, immediately reward them with the treat. Ignore any other attempts your dog may make, such as sniffing or mouthing...

TL;DR in English: Pick out some treats for your dog. Have your dog sit down. Present the treat to your dog. Give the command "Paw. Say "Yes" when your dog begins to fidget. Reward the dog for shaking. Take your dog's paw in your hand.

When you really care for someone, it can be easy ignore the signals that they do not feel the same way. The longer you ignore these, however, the longer you will draw out your rejection and heartache. Some indicators include:  She won't make time for you. She doesn't return your texts/calls. She never reaches out to you to make plans. She says she likes you as a friend. She's not interested in physical affection. She has told you that she's not in love with you. Whether you've noticed a series of signs or the girl has straight up told you that she doesn't have feelings for you, you need to do some work to accept that it is true. The heart wants what it wants and it can very rarely be swayed otherwise. Don't imagine that you will change her mind. Take her at her word and accept that it's over.  It can be helpful to say it out loud to yourself or a friend. You might say, "My relationship with Katie is over. Katie doesn't love me." When you experience rejection, you are likely to feel a range of emotions, including disbelief, anger, and sadness. Do whatever you need to do to feel these feelings and to process them.  Cry if you feel like crying. Talk to your friends. Write in a journal. Comfort yourself with things you like, such as ice cream, hot baths, or movies.

TL;DR in English: Look for clues. Accept that its over. Feel your feelings.

Linked layers stay discrete, meaning you could edit them separately if you wanted. However, every time you click on one linked layer, you automatically adjust the layer(s) it is linked to as well. This is a good way to make large changes to many layers without having to merge. If you've got a series of layers that all make up the same image, such as a shading, sketching, and inking layer for a small animated character, you can group them together, allowing you to see and work on just these layers in the larger image. To group:  Select multiple layers in the layers panel. Right-click and select "Group from Layers." You can also drag the layers onto the little folder icon in the bottom of the layers panel. This is only an issue, on occasion, with merging. Still, if none of your options come up to merge, try to:  Right-click and select "Rasterize." Check to make sure the layers are visible Make sure clipping masks  are selected as well -- you need to highlight them to merge, or they may not let you merge.

Claims that an alkaline diet and lifestyle will make your body more alkaline are false. In fact, the body has multiple complex mechanisms for keeping the pH level of its blood in a relatively narrow range between 7.35 and 7.45. While other fluids (like urine and the contents of the stomach) can have different pH levels, these are not by themselves a sign of your overall health. Note that a blood pH level outside of this narrow range can cause dangerous conditions called acidosis (if the pH gets too low) and alkalosis (if the pH gets too high). It's generally impossible for healthy people to get either of these conditions simply through diet and lifestyle changes. Some sources unfortunately claim that an alkaline diet offers protection against serious health problems like cancer. There is no scientific grounding for these claims. If you have a major health problem, do not prioritize an alkaline diet over proper medical care. The basis for claims that alkaline diets help cure cancer are a few studies that show that certain cancer cells can grow faster in acidic solutions. However, these studies were performed in test tubes — not in human bodies. In fact, the differences between the conditions in a test tube and those in the human body are so great that it can't be said with certainty that an alkaline diet wouldn't be harmful in a real-world situation. As noted above, a harmful condition called alkalosis occurs when the pH of the blood is too high. This is almost always a cause of disease, organ damage, altitude sickness, or poisoning. Because alkalosis is so dangerous, it's important to never attempt to artificially raise your blood pH level directly (via injection, drinking a strong alkaline solution, etc.) This mistake can be deadly. Symptoms of alkalosis include nausea, confusion, headache, muscle spasms, light-headedness, and numbness in the face or limbs.

TL;DR in English: Understand that the human body's pH level can't be adjusted. Don't believe claims that alkalines are disease cures. Understand the danger of alkalosis.

Whether your cholesterol test results came out high or you're just trying to maintain your good levels, you can help ensure a positive result at your next lipid test by making some basic lifestyle changes.  Perhaps most importantly, physical activity is essential to raising levels of high-density lipoproteins (HDL)—or “good cholesterol” as it is often called.  Aim for at least 30 minutes of aerobic exercise, such as brisk walking, cycling, jogging, or swimming, per day. Daily exercise can also be invaluable for managing one’s weight.  This is important for lowering your cholesterol levels, as excess weight has been linked to high cholesterol and heart disease as a risk factor. Soluble fiber is important to a cholesterol-conscious diet, as it binds to cholesterol in the digestive tract and gets it out of the body.  It’s recommended that you consume at least 20-35 grams of fiber a day, with five to ten grams of that being of the soluble variety. Some fiber-rich foods include oats barley, oat bran, beans, and eggplant. Including polyunsaturated fats in your diet can directly lower your low-density lipoproteins (LDL)—or “bad cholesterol” levels.  Eat plenty of foods rich in these ‘good fats’—for example, nuts, vegetable oils, and fatty fish—and you may be able to get better results on your very next cholesterol test without taking any medication or supplements. Also be sure to avoid saturated fats and trans fats!  Trans and saturated fats have been linked to heart disease and high ‘bad cholesterol’ levels, so keep them out of your diet at all costs.  Trans fats are designed to extend shelf life, so you’ll find them mostly in fast food and highly processed products. Smoking is one of the risk factors most strongly correlated to high cholesterol and heart disease.  If you’re a smoker, consider quitting this highly addictive habit for a plethora of health benefits.  In addition to improving respiratory health and decreasing your chances of contracting cancer, you’ll also improve your HDL cholesterol levels. The...

TL;DR in English: Exercise for 30 minutes every day. Eat foods rich in soluble fiber. Consume polyunsaturated fats. Quit smoking. Ask your doctor if you should take a cholesterol-lowering drug.

There may be something to the old saying “out of sight, out of mind.” Your ability to move on may be complicated because you are still entangled with this guy. Break off contact for a while and try to avoid seeing this person to stop obsessing. Take a mini detox from social media so you don't stalk their page. Temporarily remove their number from your phone (be sure to write it down in an address book if this is someone you plan on talking to again) so you are not tempted to call or text them. If you’re still obsessing over a guy, chances are there are still some unresolved issues hanging around. You will need to find closure in order to fully move on and reclaim your life. Get closure by performing a ritual. There are many approaches you can try. You can box up all the memories you have of this person and trash or donate the box. Or, you might write a letter to the person sharing your feelings. Then, burn it or tear it to pieces. Getting to know someone new can help you finally seal the deal of getting over an old flame. Plus, once you meet a better match, you might forget why your crush was so interesting anyway. Put out feelers to see if your social circle can hook you up with someone. Join a new club or take a class to meet new people. Or, create a profile and try online dating.

TL;DR in English: Limit contact. Perform a ritual to let go. Date someone new.

This can be done by pressing the pause button (usually two vertical lines, or, in some cases, the P key). Then, click on Options and find the graphics settings. If there is no graphics menu whatsoever, it is probable the game is not graphically intensive and you will have to upgrade your computer to get better performance. This will usually be either 1920 X 1080 or 1366 X 768 by default; lower it to 1366 X 768 if your computer is currently running at 1920 X 1080, and 1080 X 720 if your computer is running 1366 X 768.  In the event that your computer is running a higher resolution than 1920 X 1080, then turn it down to 1920 X 1080. If your default resolution is lower than 1080 X 720, you will probably have to replace your computer if you want to play any kind of intensive games (this usually means your computer has either a very small screen or was released pre-2010). If the game is still lagging or you're already in medium settings, turn the settings down to low or minimum. If your game is still lagging, you will probably have to upgrade your computer. These should not be turned on if you are trying to avoid lag. There is a possibility the game you are playing has other advanced settings, such as detail options or MSAA. If you see these settings, turn them down.

TL;DR in English: Open the graphics options in the game you are playing. Change the screen resolution. Lower your graphics settings to medium and resume the game. Make sure advanced graphics settings like Anti-Aliasing and Vsync are turned off.

You will use this as the base to paint the eye. There are different color combinations you can use depending on what skin tone you are going for. Try to recreate your own skin tone for if you’re unsure what skin tone to use. Use the outline you drew earlier if you want a guide. Paint two ovals close to each other.  This will act as the foundation for the rest of the painting. The sclera is the white part of your eyes. The sclera in the eyes is never a pure white. Mix white paint with a touch of another color like light grey, light blue or light pink. Paint two ovals in the paint you just created. The scleras should be the same shape as the outline of the eyes, but smaller and inside the flesh toned outline. Add depth by shading and adding different tints. To make simple eyelashes you can draw with dark brown around the oval, but make sure to blend it well with the skin color. If you want to make more realistic eyelashes, you need a small brush and add the lashes one by one.

TL;DR in English: Create a flesh color. Paint ovals as eyes. Create the sclera. Paint the eyelids.

Repurpose an old container for use as a cute new lip balm container. Think of tins for candy or mints, small glass jars, or old plastic makeup compacts. Make sure your container has a cap or lid that fits securely.  Try using a mini size Altoids container, or another small tin left over from mints or candy. Use an old container from makeup or another beauty product you don’t use anymore or that’s used up. You can even cut apart a contact lens case to use one of the circular containers. Create a container you can wear by using jewelry as a way to hold your lip balm. Try a locket or ring that closes to protect the lip balm.  Look for jewelry items that have a small recess to put lip balm into, and a little door or cover that will protect it. Note that you may want to find an inexpensive piece of jewelry that’s old or not worn anymore for this project, as it may be difficult to remove and clean out lip balm once it is put into metal crevices. Pour in homemade lip balm while it is still warm to allow it to set in your new repurposed container. Or, transfer an existing product to the container to keep as a small travel size.  Let homemade lip balm set in the fridge undisturbed until it solidifies before using it or putting a cap or lid on. Note that it’s easiest to transfer an existing product to a new container if it’s soft and scoopable, like a petroleum jelly or lip gloss. Melting down an existing lip balm (not homemade) may be too difficult and messy. Make sure that if your container has a clasp or hinged lid, as in a metal tin or piece of jewelry, you do not fill it with lip balm or other product to the point that it impedes it from closing smoothly.

TL;DR in English: Find a small metal, glass, or plastic container. Use jewelry to hold your lip balm. Fill your container with lip balm.

When a number has an exponent that means you multiply that number by itself as many times as the exponent says. To simplify any number that has an exponent simply multiply it the appropriate number of times.  For example: 43=4×4×4=64{\displaystyle 4^{3}=4\times 4\times 4=64}. If there is a negative sign and no parentheses, the exponent is simplified and then the negative sign gets added: −22=−(2×2)=−4.{\displaystyle -2^{2}=-(2\times 2)=-4.}  If there is a negative sign, but the number is in parenthesis, the negative number is part of the exponent: (−2)2=−2×−2=4.{\displaystyle (-2)^{2}=-2\times -2=4.} It may be confusing at first to see a variable with an exponent. Just remember, any variable with the same exponent number can be added or subtracted. If the letters are the same, but the exponents are different, they cannot be combined.  For example, 6x2+5x2=11x2{\displaystyle 6x^{2}+5x^{2}=11x^{2}}. Similarly, 4xy3−8xy3=−4xy3{\displaystyle 4xy^{3}-8xy^{3}=-4xy^{3}}. On the other hand, 5z+5z2{\displaystyle 5z+5z^{2}} cannot be simplified, since one variable has an exponent, and one does not. If two variables are being multiplied together and they both have exponents, you can add the exponents together to get the resulting exponent. This only applies to variables of the same letter. For example, (x2)(x3)=x2+3=x5{\displaystyle (x^{2})(x^{3})=x^{2+3}=x^{5}}. If you want to divide two variables that have exponents, simply subtract the bottom exponent from the top exponent. This only applies to variables that are the same letter. For example, a6a3=a6−3=a3{\displaystyle {\frac {a^{6}}{a^{3}}}=a^{6-3}=a^{3}}.

TL;DR in English: Simplify exponents of numbers. Combine like terms with the same exponents. Add the exponents together when multiplying variables. Subtract the exponents when dividing variables.

Mold is a serious problem that ruins cushion fabric if it is not removed. You can handle it by mixing 0.5 fluid ounces (15 mL) of liquid dish detergent in a bucket filled with approximately 32 fluid ounces (950 mL) of warm water. Then, mix in 1.2 ounces (34 g) of borax. You may be able to use chlorinated laundry bleach if you don’t have borax. Check the manufacturer’s label to see if this is safe. Avoid pouring the solution directly onto the cushion. Dip a clean sponge, nylon scrub brush, or white towel into it. Gently press the solution onto the moldy spots.  You can also pour the mixture into a spray bottle, then spray a light coating onto the stains. If you are unsure about using a borax or bleach solution, test it in an inconspicuous spot on your cushions first. Leave your cushions out in open air while giving the solution time to soak into the stain. Then, come back and check the stains. If they aren’t removed at this point, you can try cleaning them again. Use more of the solution if you are certain you have mold or mildew stains. Otherwise, switch to using absorbent material to draw out the stain. Moisten a clean, white cloth or sponge in lukewarm water. Scrub all the treated spots to remove any solution left on the cushions. For extra cleaning power, scrub the spots with a scrub brush dipped in clean water.  Avoid letting the bleach stay on the cushion, since this can stain or damage fabric. You can spray the cushions with a hose to ensure all the bleach is removed. Cornstarch, or another absorbent material such as newspaper or baking soda, may help you if the bleach fails. This material works best on oil-based stains, such as body oil, sunscreen, bird droppings, and pizza grease. Sprinkle the material until it covers the stains in an even layer. You can apply cornstarch immediately after washing a cushion with soap and water. However, using bleach first can help with tougher stains. Use a vacuum with an upholstery attachment to remove any absorbent material. You can also brush it off or scrape it off...

TL;DR in English: Create a bleach and soap mixture to treat mold. Blot the cleaning solution onto moldy spots with a sponge. Let the solution soak for 15 minutes. Rinse the cleaned spots immediately with clean water. Spread cornstarch over oily stains to draw them out. Vacuum the cornstarch off after 15 minutes. Dry wet cushions completely before storing them.

A common setback when trying to solve algebra word problems is assuming what the question is asking before you read the entire problem. In order to be successful in solving a word problem, you need to read the whole problem in order to assess what information is provided, and what information is missing. In many problems, what you are asked to find is presented in the last sentence. This is not always true, however, so you need to read the entire problem carefully. Write down what you need to find, or else underline it in the problem, so that you do not forget what your final answer means. In an algebra word problem, you will likely be asked to find a certain value, or you may be asked to find an equation that represents a value.  For example, you might have the following problem: Jane went to a book shop and bought a book. While at the store Jane found a second interesting book and bought it for $80. The price of the second book was $10 less than three times the price of he first book. What was the price of the first book? In this problem, you are asked to find the price of the first book Jane purchased. Likely, the information you need to know is the same as what information you are asked to find. You also need to assess what information you already know. Again, underline or write out this information, so you can keep track of all the parts of the problem. For problems involving geometry, it is often helpful to draw a sketch at this point. For example, you know that Jane bought two books. You know that the second book was $80. You also know that the second book cost $10 less than 3 times the price of the first book. You don’t know the price of the first book. If you are being asked to find a certain value, you will likely only have one variable. If, however, you are asked to find an equation, you will likely have multiple variables. No matter how many variables you have, you should list each one, and indicate what they are equal to. For example, assign the variable x{\displaystyle x} to the unknown in the...

A digital audio workstation, or DAW, is a computer setup and software program that you use to make your music. Even if you plan to only record instruments instead of creating music digitally, you still need to know how to use a program that will allow you to record, layer, alter, and mix the sounds so it sounds good.  Download a program to your computer to start building your workstation. Popular DAWs you can purchase include FL Studio, Bitwig, and Pro Tools. Many DAWs include tutorials that will teach you how to use them. The right studio environment can help both you and any producers, musicians, or artists you collaborate with come up with new and exciting music. Set up a studio that has all of the equipment and instruments that you’ll need. Make the studio space comfortable so both you and the people you work with enjoy working there.  Make the recording space soundproof so your recordings are high quality. Have comfy chairs and couches so you can relax while you’re working. A hook is a short riff or musical sound that makes a song catchy and good. Whether you’re playing an instrument or making a beat on using a digital program, start writing a song by coming up with a hook or rhythm that you can use to guide the rest of your song creation.  Play around with different sounds until you find something that you like. Listen to other music to come up with interesting combinations. Remix a classic song into something brand new. For instance, you could sample vocals from a church choir and add them to a catchy electronic dance beat. You can use a recording program to add drum samples and loops or you can record a drummer playing on a drumset. Add the percussion layer to your track to give a cadence and tempo to the rhythm and hook. Make sure the beat makes sense with the rhythm. For example, if you’ve got a fast-paced punk rock guitar riff as a hook, you’ll want a fast kick and snare to go along with it. Come up with lyrics that fit the rhythm of your song and match the overall mood of the melody. For instance,...

TL;DR in English: Set up a digital audio workstation to create your music. Create a studio space so you can record. Come up with a catchy rhythm and hook.

While a stressful day may make a beer or glass of wine with lunch seem like a nice idea, it will make you drowsy so you should avoid having alcohol with lunch. Alcohol is a sedative and even one glass will leave you feeling fatigued for the remainder of the day. Although caffeine is renowned for its ability to improve our alertness, it can become a case of diminishing returns if you need to keep increasing the dosage because its effect has lessened over time. Needing to up the caffeine is unhealthy because you can easily end up having too much caffeine, crashing quickly after it wears off each time, and ultimately you risk developing a caffeine addiction. Switch to decaffeinated or non-caffeinated drinks to get you through the afternoon.  Water is an excellent choice, as it is also important to keep well hydrated throughout the day. As an added bonus, it provides you with an excuse to stroll to the water-cooler now and then. after eating your lunch. After eating, it is a good idea to get out and do some light exercise. Take a walk for a few blocks, do some basic stretches, use the stairs instead of the elevator, or do a few jumping jacks in the restroom — whatever you can think of that fits with your schedule and location. Light exercise after eating will help get your blood flowing and will help to ward off fatigue. Drinking lots of water during the day will help to keep you hydrated and it may also help to reduce a feeling of tiredness after lunch. Carry a reusable water bottle with you wherever you go and refill it throughout the day. If you're suffering from excessive drowsiness after eating lunch, you may want to see your doctor for a checkup. There are medical conditions that can cause drowsiness, including iron or other nutrient deficiencies, insulin resistance or diabetes, hypoglycemia, or other medical problems. Diagnosis and treatment is something only your doctor can do.

TL;DR in English: Skip the wine or beer with lunch. Curb your caffeine intake after lunch. Exercise Drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water throughout the day. See your doctor.

With your dominant hand, pinch the leader. Grip each item between your thumb and index finger about 1 inch (2.5 cm) below their respective loops. Keeping your pinched grip on both sides, gently thread the loop in the fly line through the loop in the leader. This should be relatively easy, as the fly line loop is typically smaller than the leader loop. Open the fingers of your non-dominant hand slightly, and add the leader loop to the pinched grip of that hand. You will now be holding the leader and fly line in a pinched grip in the fingers of your non-dominant hand. Release your grip on the leader with your dominant hand. While still pinching the leader and fly line in your non-dominant hand, grip the free length of your leader about 2 inches (5.1 cm) away with your dominant hand. Create a small loop, and pinch it between the index finger and thumb of your dominant hand. The new small loop should be about the same size as leader’s original perfection loop. Press the top edge of the new loop you’ve created in the leader through the welded loop in the fly line. Keep pushing the new loop through the welded loop until you can pinch the new loop of the leader on the other side. Continue to secure the leader and fly line with the pinch in your non-dominant head. With the fingers of your dominant hand, grip the top of the leader that’s been threaded through the welded loop. Pull the loop, increasing its size, until you pull the loose end all the way through. Soften your grip on the leader and line in your non-dominant hand, and let go of the leader. Maintain your grip on the fly line with the non-dominant hand. With your dominant hand, regrip the leader about 2 inches (5.1 cm) from your non-dominant hand’s pinch on the fly line. Apply gentle pressure, pulling both sides firmly away from one another. The perfection loop of the leader will interlock over the welded loop of the fly line to resemble a square knot. Give the two sides one final tug to ensure your new knot is secured snugly. You’re ready for your next...

TL;DR in English: Pinch the fly line in your non-dominant hand. Insert the loop in the fly line through the loop in the leader.

Your cat has just been through a completely unnatural experience and is probably exhausted, a little skittish, and may even believe the bath was a punishment.  Remind the cat that you are its friend and that it is not in trouble by offering it some of its favorite treat. Post-bath grooming for your cat means that it may ingest a good deal of hair.  Consider treating your cat with specially formulated “hairball treats.” These contain a greater amount of fat or fish oil, which will stick to the fur in the cat’s stomach, helping the fur pass through the digestive system and preventing hairballs. While treating it, pat and stroke the cat gently, talking and telling it what a good kitty it is, reassuring it that everything is back to normal and that it doesn’t need to be afraid. If your cat is a fan of being brushed, begin the grooming process by using its favorite brush to start removing hair that has been released due to stress and bathing. Don’t release the cat until its body language tells you it has relaxed and is not afraid.  Look for signs like tail lifting, purring, closing or partially closing the eyes, bunting (nuzzling its head against your hands or body), or any other signs you recognize as indicating your cat is happy. When the cat body emotes calm energy, release it.  It will likely find a comfy, out of the way spot to begin its own grooming process.  Give it a few hours to groom, nap, and feel normal again. Let it come find you when it’s ready for interaction.

TL;DR in English: Offer treats. Pet the cat. Continue to pet, treat, and soothe before release.

This includes many saltwater fish such as sea trout and bluefish, as well as freshwater bottom feeders such as carp and catfish.  If you are fishing from one spot (still fishing), cut the fish into chunks thick enough to hide most of the hook. If you are dragging the fishing line behind a moving boat (trolling), cut the fish into long, thin V-shaped strips. Pierce the hook through the thicker end so the moving strip imitates a swimming fish. Any fish that hunts crayfish, such as pike or catfish, can be attracted by a severed tail with the hook pushed along the length of the meaty center. The same hooking process can be used to attract shoreline fish with a shrimp tail bait. Commercial doughball paste can be purchased in labeled varieties that attract bass, trout, or another specific species. You can also make your own by boiling hot water, flour, cornmeal, and molasses for a few minutes and letting it cool. Fishermen add anything from cheese to garlic to this recipe in their efforts to attract an individual fish species. Form the paste into a ball over the entire hook. Press it into place so the hook is hidden completely. Some hooks include wire springs to help keep the doughball in place. Shellfish are great for attracting fish in their native area. Clams, mussels, liver, and other soft meat should be left out in the sun to harden before use, or else frozen beforehand and used when partially thawed.  Once the meat is hardened, pierce the hook through it in as many different places as possible. Hide the end of the hook in the meat. If it still won't adhere to the hook or you suspect a fish could peel it right off, use fine thread or wire to tie it on. You can find artificial lures that sink, float, or stay just under the surface. In addition to customizing for your fish's habits, you can find artificial bait intended to attract a specific species by smell or appearance. In order to hook a standard artificial "grub," thread the hook through the mouth of the bait until the front reaches the eye of the hook....

TL;DR in English: Use fish pieces to attract fish that hunt by scent. Bait with crayfish tail in freshwater or brackish water and shrimp tail in saltwater. Customize doughballs to your fish species. Use local clam and other soft meat. Buy artificial bait for the right depth.

The thread you choose will depend on the color of your handkerchief fabric and how much you want the stitching to stand out. If you want the thread to blend in with the fabric, then choose a thread color that matches the color of the fabric. If you want the thread to stand out, choose something that will complement or contrast with the fabric.  For example, if you are making light blue handkerchiefs and want the thread to blend in then the opt for a light blue thread. If you are making red print napkins and want the thread to contrast with your fabric, then opt for white or black thread. your handkerchief to add another decorative element. If you would like, you can embroider the finished handkerchief with initials or another design. If you have a sewing machine with an embroidery setting, then you can use it to embroider a design onto the handkerchief. Or, you can also hand embroider your handkerchief.  Try embroidering initials onto the corner or center of the handkerchief for a personal touch. Add an embroidered flower to a corner or the center of the handkerchief for a pretty touch. Include an embroidered edge for a decorative finish.

Rabbits are naturally prey animals, so they experience more stress more than other animals. This means that your wild rabbit will likely run from you if you try to approach it. Its first survival defense is to run away to a place of safety. Do not attempt to stop the rabbit from running away. This will only make it more stressed. This can lead to its death, since rabbits can suffer a heart attack or go into shock, which causes its gut to go into stasis, which will cause its starvation. In order for the rabbit to get used to you and not see you as hostile, you should decrease your height when approaching it. This will make it seem less threatening to it. If she does approach you, do not react to it at first. Sit immobile for as long as it takes, which may be hours. It may also take multiple tries over many days, as she gets used to you. If you smell like other animals that are predators of rabbits, such as dogs or cats, she may not approach you. Put on freshly washed clothes and wash your hands before going outside to ensure you don't smell like any other animal. When you are trying to get the rabbit to trust you, leave a trail of tasty food the rabbit will like to lead it towards you. This includes leafy green like arugula, dandelion leaves, and carrot slices. This will help it trust you and go towards taming it. When you are trying to tame it, talk to the rabbit in a calm, gentle, low voice. This will help soothe it and not cause extra alarm. Never shout at the rabbit or make loud noises. This will cause it to run away and hide. If you do manage to scare the rabbit, she may completely freeze. A rabbit uses this reflex to fool predators into thinking she is dead or to help it hide. If the rabbit approaches you in this manner, she is not happy to see you and does not want you to pick it up. She is actually terrified. You may be tempted and be able to pick it up in this catatonic state, but this is not a good way to help the rabbit. This will likely send it into shock and cause major problems for it. This can...

TL;DR in English: Be ready for it to run. Lie down with it. Avoid smelling like other animals. Leave a trail of food. Talk gently to it. Deal with a scared rabbit. Avoid lifting them up.

Go with bowls that are relatively deep so you can fill them with broth and toppings easily. You can use as much as you want of whatever toppings you like best. It’s customary to thinly layer the toppings so that they completely cover the noodles, but it’s really up to you. The great thing about pho is that it’s completely customizable! Remove the lid from the pot of broth. You can put as much broth in each bowl as you want. If you prefer your pho chunky, use less broth. If you want to savor the broth with fewer veggies in it, ladle the broth generously into the 2 bowls. Add a spoon or a pair of chopsticks to each bowl and serve! Place the garnish plate on the table so guests can add whatever they like best to their soup. If you’re serving Hoisin sauce or Sriracha, make sure that is also within your guests’ reach. Store leftover broth in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.

You will need a 12” or longer metal ruler, a pencil, paper, and a craft knife. The process will be easier if you also have a cutting mat: these are widely available at hobby and fabric stores, have straight lines printed on them, and protect working surfaces so that you don’t end up scoring lines in your dining room table. “Sticky tack,” a removable putty-type adhesive, can help anchor the ruler.  X-ACTO knives are very commonly used by crafters, and are easily found in most craft stores and many superstores. If you don’t have one or don’t want to buy one, a box cutter will also work (as long as it’s sharp). If you use a box cutter, straight razor blade, or other extremely sharp object, use extreme caution! Craft knives such as X-ACTO knives have safety handles that can help keep you from cutting yourself. Never allow children to use sharp knives without adult supervision. If you have a cutting mat, place the paper there. Make sure your work surface doesn’t have any bumps or bubbles, as this will affect your cutting.

TL;DR in English: Gather your materials. Place the paper on a flat surface.

It doesn't need to be a lot of liquid, but your shoes should be totally underwater. If they don't get good and soaked, they might not shrink evenly.  Alternately, you can use a wash basin or large bucket. If your boots are made of suede, submerging them might ruin their appearance. Instead, just wet the inside of the shoes and let them air dry in a sunny space. The damp socks will help your boots shrink to the proper size. They'll also spare your feet from the pain caused by the shrinking leather. You'll want to do this as soon as you pull them out of the tub, because they'll start shrinking right away. Heads up: getting them on might take a little elbow grease. At this point, you can go ahead with whatever you've got planned for the day. As you walk around, the leather will naturally shrink to fit your feet. It may sound uncomfortable, but it's definitely effective. By the time the socks have dried, your boots should feel much better.

TL;DR in English: Soak your boots in a tub of water for about an hour. Put on a pair of socks and dunk your feet in the water. Put the wet boots on over your socks. Wear the wet boots and socks until the socks dry.

This article assumes you have already filed for custody and attended any court-ordered mediation. If you haven’t, then you shouldn’t assume you are in a “custody battle.” There is still time for you and the other parent to agree on child custody. You can draft a parenting plan and file it with the court.  Most likely, either you or the other parent has already filed a petition for custody in court. You probably have tried mediation and failed to reach an agreement. If neither is true, then see File a Petition for Child Custody and Prepare for Child Custody Mediation for more information. You should also find out why the other parent is fighting you. For example, you might want a 50-50 custody arrangement, but the other parent wants you only to get weekend visitation. Find out the reasons why. Here are some of the more common:  One parent has accused the other of abusing the children. One parent has accused the other of being neglectful and not having a bond with the children. One parent has accused the other of being a drug addict or alcoholic and thus a danger to the children. The parents live far apart and sharing custody 50-50 isn’t realistic. Accordingly, the children need to spend most of the school year with one parent. A judge will determine custody by considering what is in the best interests of the child. As part of this analysis, the judge will need to consider a variety of factors. Not every factor will apply to your case. But if it does, then you need to argue that the factor favors you. Common factors include:  The parent’s personality and ability to raise the child. The parent’s relationship with the child. Each parent’s employment status. Each parent’s mental and physical health. Why the parent is seeking child custody. Whether the parent is willing to encourage the children to maintain a relationship with the other parent. Who the child wants to live with (if they are old enough). How moving would impact the child. A child custody battle is very important. Not only do you want to win, but it...

TL;DR in English:


Keep in mind that home remedies for boils may not work. Use tea tree oil. Try Epsom salts. Experiment with turmeric. Apply colloidal silver cream. Use apple cider vinegar. Try castor oil.

In a pellet feed, each chunk of kibble is identical. Choosing pellets over muesli (where you can identify individual peas, corn, wheat etc.) prevents selective feeding. Do not over-feed pellets as too much can cause the guinea pig to become overweight. Read the packet for how much, but it should be no more than a few teaspoons or a dessert spoon a day.  Selective feeding is where the guinea pig chooses the tastier bits of food over less tasty – but often more nutritious – foods. This causes mineral deficiency. If you are changing the feed, make a gradual change providing a bit of both to start with as otherwise she may not eat the feed at all. All guinea pigs should always have access to clean water, but this is even more important when they are pregnant. Empty the water bottle and re-fill daily, to ensure the water is clean.  If the water bottle is usually placed high-up, provide a second water bottle lower down so that the sow does not have to stretch if she does not want to. Clean the water bottle weekly to prevent the build-up of algae and bacteria. Wash out the water bottle with a gentle dish soap every few days. Provide grass hay (timothy or orchard) with a green tinge. Supplement this with a daily dose of alfalfa hay which is higher in protein and calcium. Make sure hay is freely available at all times, and provide in a large ball the guinea pig can burrow in. Alfalfa hay is great for pregnant, nursing and young guinea pigs but the calcium content is too high for normal guinea pigs as a build-up of calcium can cause bladder stones. All guinea pigs should be given at least one cup of fresh vegetables a day, but as the pregnant sow begins to eat more you can increase this to 1½ to 2 cups a day. For which vegetables are suitable, see Care for Guinea Pigs. Never offer the same vegetable two days running. This prevents an excess of one particular mineral that might be contained in that vegetable. For example, carrots contain lots of oxalate. If your pet has too much of this, it can build up in urine and...

TL;DR in English: Provide extruded pelleted feed. Provide clean water at all times. Provide quality hay. Offer fresh vegetables every day. Ensure you’re providing enough vitamins and minerals. Increase the amount of fruit you provide in the last 4weeks of pregnancy.

While many slow-cooker beef recipes call for a whole roast, others such as beef stews or beef stroganoff call for cube or chunk beef. Review the recipe for the desired size of the beef cubes. Usually they will be 1"x1". If your beef isn't pre-cut, you will need to cut it into small pieces. You'll be seasoning these pieces and browning them. If there are more pieces than will fit into the bottom of your slow cooker or pan, divide them into batches. Before the meat begins the long process of slow cooking, it is best if you brown it first. The chemical process of meat browning is known as the "Maillard Reaction". If your slow cooker has a high heat function that can sear and brown brown meat, use that. Otherwise use a large pan or pot.  Put a few tablespoons of oil in the cooker or pot. When the oil is hot it will look like it is shimmering. Try to avoid splashing water in the oil to see if it is hot. This causes splatter. Most cubed beef recipes call for seasoning. Even if seasoning isn't called for, you will also want to make sure that the meat is dry. Patting it with a paper towel will accomplish this. The surface of the meat being dry will help facilitate the Maillard Reaction and will lead to better browning.  If you recipe doesn't call for seasoning, you can still use a light dusting of salt and sugar. A dusting of salt and sugar will also help a brown crust to form. Your recipe may also call for the meat chunks to be dredged through flour or corn starch. Sear the chunks in the hot slow cooker. You'll want to make sure that all sides are browned for maximum flavor. When all the pieces are browned, turn the cooker off. Since these pieces are smaller, they should brown fairly quickly. If you are browning in batches, place the completed chunks on a plate to the side. #*When they are all done, put them in the slow cooker again. Review your recipe for the cooking time and temperature required. Set your slow cooker to these specifications. If your slow cooker doesn't allow you to set an end time, simply create a...

TL;DR in English: Get your recipe. Cut the beef into cubes. Turn up the heat. Season your meat. Sear the meat. Set the cooking time and temperature. Add other ingredients. Let it cook. Finish up. Finished.

While it is okay to try home remedies, keep in mind that they are not recommended by doctors and they may not work. It is unlikely to cause any harm to try a home remedy, but be aware that you may still need to seek medical treatment. Tea tree oil is a natural antiseptic and is used in the treatment of numerous skin conditions, including boils. Simply apply a dab of tea tree oil directly to the boil once a day, using a q-tip. Epsom salt is a drying agent that can assist in bringing the boil to a head. To use, dissolve the Epsom salts in warm water and use this water to make a warm compress to place over the boil. Repeat three times a day until the boil begins to drain. Do not immerse yourself in an Epsom salt bath, especially if you are a woman. This can cause negative effects for vaginal health. Turmeric is an Indian spice with impressive anti-inflammatory properties. It also acts as a blood purifier. Turmeric can be taken orally in capsule form, or it can be mixed with a little water to form a paste and applied directly onto the boil. Just make sure to cover the boil with a bandage afterward, as the turmeric can stain clothes. Colloidal silver is a natural disinfectant that has been used with success in the home treatment of boils. Simply rub a little of the cream directly onto the boil twice a day. Apple cider vinegar is a natural disinfectant that can be used to cleanse infection from the boil once it has begun to drain. Dip a cotton ball into the vinegar and press it gently against the boil. If you find that it stings too much, dilute the apple cider vinegar to half strength with water first. Castor oil is used in numerous natural and medical treatments - including chemotherapy for cancer patients. It is an effective anti-inflammatory that can be used to lessen the swelling and tenderness of boils. Soak a cotton boil in castor oil and place it on the boil. Secure the cotton ball with a band-aid or some gauze. Change every few hours.

TL;DR in English:


Drain and rinse the seeds. Return the seeds to the jar. Rinse and drain the seeds every 6 to 8 hours for up to 4 days. Move the sprouts to indirect sunlight after 3 to 4 days. Continue rinsing every 6 to 8 hours for another 1 to 2 days.

Quickly kiss her cheek, grab and squeeze her hand, or whisper something kind in her ear. Gauge how she responds. Every girl is different, and some will like more obvious affections (like a kiss in public) more than others. Some ideas include:  Pull her into you, lean in and kiss her. Let her do the same. When it comes to kissing, don't always take charge. Hug her from behind and kiss her on the cheek as a surprise "Hello." Cuddle with her when you lay down or sit together. Put an arm around her shoulder or kiss her shoulder. Hold her from behind and rest your neck on her shoulder. It doesn't have to be a big conversation every time. Simply showing her that you think about her is enough. Send her a link to a new recipe to try together, a potential date, or a funny picture. Ask her how she's doing. Let her know what you're up to, or something interesting that happened to you. Even a quick Snapchat or two shows that she's on your mind, and that you don't just ignore her when she's not around. Take her on a moonlit walk, or out to get a cone of ice cream. Grab some nice take-out and a good movie for a surprise night in, cook her a meal before she gets home, or just ask her to come eat lunch on a park bench instead of in the cafeteria or break room. These little acts of kindness show that you are thinking of her and are willing to go out of the way, just a little bit, to keep her happy. Going on dates isn't just about spending money, it is about carving out time to be alone together. A great date is just a chance to enjoy each other's company, learning more about each other and exploring the world together. Movies, concerts, and dinners are all classic dates, but they are not the only things you can do. Think about her passions and interests and find dates that she might enjoy.  Head to the local SPCA and play with some animals for a cuddly free date idea. Go out for a hike or walk in the local park and pack a picnic dinner or lunch for the ending. Check your local paper for events, from street festivals to...

TL;DR in English: Surprise her with occasional, spontaneous displays of affection. Text, call, or reach out once a day. Make small, daily interactions into "mini-dates" from time to time. Take her on dates. Remember and celebrate the special days, like birthdays and anniversaries.

Use enough wax paper to completely cover the cake pop and have enough room to cover some of the stick. You can rip many pieces at once or 1 at a time--whatever is easier for you. After you’ve ripped your wax paper, place the cake part in the center, and cover the rest of the cake with the wax paper using your hands. Then, pinch the wax paper where the cake meets the stick, and gently twist it around the stick.  This provides protection against condensation on the cake pop. You can also do this for shaped, uncoated cake balls for later use. Simply shape your cake ball and place it in the middle of your wax paper. Then, wrap the ball up completely in the paper. Using scissors, cut a piece of bubble wrap to the size of your plastic bag. Lay the bag flat on your table, and put the bubble wrap inside so it lays flat. Smooth out any creases or wrinkles with your fingers. While this is not required, it helps protect your cake pops from breaking or cracking. After you have your bag lined with bubble wrap, place your wrapped cake pops in the bag, starting at the bottom. Place your cake pops in the bag so they all face the same direction. Set the cake pops immediately next to each other to save space. It’s okay if they touch slightly. After you’ve laid cake pops in 1 direction, fill in the open spaces with another layer of cake pops. Place them down the opposite way of the first layer. Continue adding cake pops until your bag is nearly full.  If you placed the cake pops in the bag starting with the stick, then this time start with the cake itself. This helps save space in your bag, so you can store as many cake pops as possible. After you fill your bag with cake pops, place another piece of bubble wrap inside the bag. Lay this piece on top of all of your cake pops. Make sure all the cake pops on the outside are protected with bubble wrap. Then, seal the bag up by sliding your fingers across the top. This adds another layer of security to help preserve your cake pops while they are in the freezer. Pick a flat spot out...

TL;DR in English: Rip a piece of wax paper about 2 in × 4 in (5.1 cm × 10.2 cm) big. Wrap the cake pops loosely with wax paper. Place a sheet of bubble wrap into a large plastic bag for extra protection. Fill the plastic bag with a single layer of cake pops. Alternate the direction of your cake pops to make a second layer. Put another piece of bubble wrap on top and close up the bag. Place your bags in the freezer so they lay flat and undisturbed. Let your cake pops sit at room temperature for 1-3 hours before serving.

Wait until the leaf buds begin to swell, then use a sturdy, sharp blade to ensure a clean cut. Prune by cutting at a 45-degree angle, just above an outer-facing growth bud. Growth buds are small raised or discolored triangular shaped areas on the rose stem. They are where the new stem will grow.  Pruning above an outer-facing growth bud encourages the roses to grow outward, rather than inward, which can reduce air circulation and lessen the visual appeal of the bush. Avoid pruning your new rose for the first two years after you have planted it. Your rose bush will only need to be pruned after it has developed old growth or mature stems. If you wish to maintain the same size rose bush each year, trim back about ⅓ of the plant. If you want it smaller, trim more, and for a larger plant, trim less. Cut this back until you see a healthy white center to the stem. Your aim is to have a plant where growth is well spaced out to encourage the flow and circulation of air. Remove close growing stems and any that cross or are tangled. On older plants you can cut back any old wood growth that no longer produces any new stems.

TL;DR in English: Prune your rose bush in the early spring. Remove any damaged or diseased growth.

Nerve tissue extends outwards from the brain and spinal cord, and is necessary for sending important messages all through the body. A pinched nerve in the hip happens when there is overstretching or compression in the midsection of the body. Since this area is responsible for numerous bodily movements, any injury to the nerves in the hip can result in a lot of pain and discomfort. . The most common symptoms of a compressed or pinched nerve include the following:   Numbness or tingling: Irritation may be experienced in the affected area. In severe cases, loss of sensation in the compressed nerve may be felt.  Pain: A throbbing or radiating pain may be felt at the location of the pinched nerve.  “Pins and needles”: Afflicted individuals may suffer from a burning "pins and needles" sensation in the compressed nerve.  Weakness:  Inability to perform certain activities may be experienced with the advancement of a pinched nerve.  Muscle Wasting: This usually occurs in the later stages of an injury. It's always best to compare the affected area with the opposite normal area to see if there is any difference in muscle size. If you find that there is a difference, see your physician immediately. A pinched nerve is caused by compression or pressure on the nerve as a result of several factors such as:   Repetitive motions: Overuse of certain parts of the body may cause too much pressure on the nerve, causing it to become compressed.  Maintaining one position for an extended amount of time: Keeping the body in a particular pose for an extended period of time can lead to a pinched nerve. The chances of acquiring a pinched nerve are increased by the following risk factors:   Heredity: Some individuals are genetically predisposed to developing a pinched nerve.  Obesity: Excess body weight can add pressure to the nerves.  Osteoarthritis: This illness causes bone spurs, which may cause the nerves to be compressed.  Overuse: Repetitive movements of certain parts of the body may increase the likelihood of developing a pinched...

TL;DR in English: Understand what a pinched nerve is. Identify the symptoms of a pinched nerve Familiarize yourself with the causes of a pinched nerve. Be aware of the risk factors for developing a pinched nerve. Know how a pinched nerve is diagnosed.

Once the seeds have been soaking for about 8 hours, remove the cheesecloth and transfer the seeds to a fine-mesh colander. Turn on the water and rinse the seeds for about a minute to remove any dirt or plant matter.  If you're using a sprouting cap with a built-in screen, simply drain the water by slowly turning the jar upside down. Pour in some fresh water, swirl the water and seeds around in the jar, and then pour out the water again. After you drain the water, place the jar upside down at a 45-degree angle for 30 minutes so that all of the water in the jar drains out. Use a clean spoon to transfer the rinsed seeds back to the sprouting jar. Replace the cheesecloth and secure it in place with the elastic. Place the seeds back in the same warm, dark location that you used for soaking them. Over the next 3 to 4 days, the seeds will germinate and begin to sprout. It's important to continue rinsing and draining them frequently during this process. Regular rinsing will prevent the growth of mold and bacteria that could cause food poisoning. As the sprouts grow, they will develop root hairs, which look fuzzy and are sometimes mistaken for mold. Root hairs help the sprouts absorb water, and they are completely normal. After rinsing, you won't even see them. When the sprouts are about 1 inch (2.5 cm) long and have grown yellow leaves, move them to a bright location to encourage chlorophyll growth. This will turn the leaves from yellow to green, and increase the amount of nutrients in the sprouts. A room temperature location, such as a kitchen counter, is an ideal place for this greening process. Don't put the sprouts in direct sunlight, otherwise they will burn. The sprouts are still susceptible to mold at this point, so you have to keep rinsing every 6 to 8 hours as the sprouts green. Once the leaves on the sprouts turn dark green in a day or 2, the sprouts are ready to eat.

TL;DR in English:
