Look for a clean jar or empty shoe box to house your woodlice. To keep just a few woodlice, use a small jar. For lots of woodlice, consider purchasing a container, such as a plastic terrarium or glass aquarium from your local pet store. Keep in mind that if you pick a shoe box or small cardboard box, you won't be able to keep the woodlice for more than a day. This is because the moist material and environment will make the container break down quickly. Spread the soil in the container so the bottom is completely covered. Press down a little so the soil is firm enough to support the woodlice and their digging. Add as many woodlice to the container as you like. If you're digging into the soil with a sharp shovel, use caution so you don't accidentally injure woodlice that may be in the ground. Scatter about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of leaves across the soil in the container. It's fine to place these over the woodlice since they prefer to be under leaves and soil. You can also add small sticks or twigs and scraps of bark. Your woodlice will eat the leaves and climb around the sticks. Leave rocks out of the container since they can tumble and crush the woodlice, especially if the container is moved. If the container has a lid, close it and ensure that air vents are open. To make your own air vents in a shoe box, put the lid on the box and carefully poke holes in the top. If you're using a jar, cover the jar with waxed paper, plastic wrap, or foil. Then use a sharp skewer to poke holes across the top.  Use caution or ask for help when poking holes in the lid. Ensure that the holes aren't big enough that the woodlice can escape. Put it out of direct sunlight so the woodlice don't overheat. Since woodlice prefer a cool environment, you don't need to use any special heat lamps, just keep the container inside your house. If you have other pets or small children, put the woodlice container somewhere out of their reach.

TL;DR in English: Choose a sturdy container to hold the woodlice. Put 2 inches (5.1 cm) of soil in the container and add the woodlice. Add leaves, sticks, and bark to give the woodlice something to explore. Cover the container and poke air holes across the top. Place the woodlice container in a secure spot in your house.

Sometimes your friend might not realize that what they said was hurtful or inappropriate. Perhaps they thought you would take it as a joke, or maybe they did not think before they spoke. Don’t be afraid to tell them how you feel in a direct but gentle manner. Your friend might realize that certain topics or jokes are off-limits with you.   You can try saying something like “I’m really hurt by what you just said” or “When you say things like that, I feel as though I am worthless.” Try not to respond with sarcasm. Your friend might mistake it as acceptance of what they are doing. For example, if your friend makes a comment on your weight, instead of a dry “thanks,” try saying, “I don’t find that really funny.” Sometimes bullies will upset you just to see your reaction afterwards. If you learn how to brush off insults, you will not be giving your friend any satisfaction from the put down, and they may stop when they realize that they have no power over you. One way to do this is to simply ignore the insult and assert your positive qualities. Swallow your anger and make a statement that both calls attention to the inappropriateness of the statement while signaling that you don’t care what they think. For example, if your friend puts down your appearance, say, “I don’t care what you think. I think I look beautiful.” When someone puts you down, they may be trying to assert dominance over you by reducing your confidence. Humor can turn the situation around by giving you control over the insult. If you cannot come up with a witty comeback, try just laughing in response. If your friend really meant to hurt you, you will be proving to them that you are too strong for such silly tactics.  If the insult really hurts you, tell your friend that you do not find it funny. Don’t make a joke at your friend’s expense, or it will continue the cycle of insults. Instead, use self-deprecating humor. By being able to make fun of yourself, you demonstrate that you don’t care what others think and that you are comfortable in your own...

TL;DR in English: State your honest feelings. Dismiss the insult. Laugh. Remain calm.

Depending on the age of a horse, training should only be done for about half an hour at a time. Think about your own learning ability. Most people retain information delivered in smaller sections, and horses do too. Additionally, the bit will likely feel uncomfortable to your horse at first, so it’s best to limit the amount of time with the bit in the beginning. The bulk of your thirty minute session should be a simple warmup.  Younger horses may do better training for fifteen to twenty minutes at a time. Better trained horses may be able to handle larger periods of training, especially if you extend the warmup. If the horse becomes stressed and starts tossing his head or excessively chewing at any point during your training session, then take the bit out and give the horse a break. It is important to avoid any stress or fear for your horse during the training process. Maintaining a positive experience for your horse will help him to accept the bit rather than fear it. Many trainers start off training the horse on the bit, and if you’ve decided to do this, it is even more important to start with simple movements that your horse is becoming familiar with. If you’re training an older horse, warming up with the basics creates an association in your horse’s mind between their “usual” ride and how this “new” ride is connected. During the warm up, you’ll need to start with simple forward motion and check for straightness, rhythm, and contact. This is the key to a successful training session or ride. If you gently squeeze the side of your horse and it starts directly forward, you’re all set. If a gentle squeeze does not start your horse forward or your horse is fighting the bit instead of moving forward, you may need to provide reprimand and reinforcement. Always avoid squeezing harder and harder to urge your horse forward. In the long run, this will leave you with a poorly trained horse and an exhausting ride.  When the horse does not move forward, you can use a riding crop, tap with your leg, or whatever method of...

TL;DR in English: Keep sessions short. Make training sessions a positive experience. Warm up your horse with basics. Establish forward motion. Confirm your horse’s straightness. Evaluate your horse’s rhythm. Assess your connection to the horse.

The host is a person in the casino that can make the decision to give you a comped room. If you've been playing for a long time and have been gambling a good amount of money, stop a waitress or go to the front desk and ask to speak with the host. You can say something like “Excuse me, I'd like to speak with the host so they can review my play history. Thanks.” If you've been playing for long enough, the employee you asked will bring over the host. Introduce yourself to the host and shake their hand. Then, ask them if they can take a look at your play history. Give them your player's card and they will evaluate what they can give you for free. Let them know that you're interested in a free room and tell them that you'll continue gambling during your stay there.  You can say something like “Can you take a look at my play history and let me know what comps are available to me? I'm interested in getting a comped room.” Remember to tip the host with at least $50 if they do comp you a room. If you haven't been able to get ahold of a host but have gambled all night, go to the player's desk, give them your player's card, and ask what comps are available to you. The player's desk will take your player's card and evaluate how many points you've gained while gambling. If it's enough points, it may qualify for a free room. Say something like, “Can you take a look at my play history and tell me what comps I can get? I was interested in getting a comped room for the night.” If you haven't gambled enough or are new to the casino, don't make a scene if you can't get a comped room by the end of the night. Staff, pit bosses, and hosts are likely to remember you. If you remain polite throughout the experience and continue visiting the same casino, they will be more likely to comp you a room in the future.

TL;DR in English: Ask to talk to the host. Ask the host to take a look at your play history. Go to the player's desk after you're done gambling. Don't get angry if you can't get a comped room.

TL;DR in English:


Acknowledge those who have played an important part in the event. Mention any parts of the event that are of special importance. Reiterate your welcoming line.

People who make eye contact are usually the ones who wish to engage in conversation. Eye contact can also help you determine whether a topic of conversation is one that your conversation partner will enjoy. If he begins to seem distracted or look elsewhere, you should consider changing the topic, asking your partner a question, or politely ending the conversation. Silences happen. Feel free to embrace these silences, especially with those with whom you are already close. Don't feel obligated to fill every break in a conversation with your opinions, questions, and stories: sometimes these breaks are natural and positive. Pause every once in a while as you speak. This will allow your partner to change topics, ask you questions, or end the conversation if necessary. Be sure that you are not monologuing. If you are first getting to know somebody, you should withhold your most intimate details until you get to know them better. Oversharing might make you appear gossipy, inappropriate, or shocking. Keep things factual but appropriately intimate until you become better acquainted. Some topics to avoid oversharing about include:  Bodily or sexual functions Recent breakups or relationship turmoil Political and religious opinions Gossip and salacious stories Topics that people do not like discussing in the workplace include personal appearance, relationship status, and socioeconomic status. Political and religious affiliations can also be taboo, depending on the context. Be sensitive to your listener and try to keep things casual and light until you have a better sense of what they are interested in. If you have a funny story to share, make sure that it is brief or that it has something to do with your listener's interests. Just because a topic is interesting to you doesn't make it interesting to others. Feel free to share (briefly) your interests and enthusiasms, and then gauge your listener's responses. Let them ask you follow-up questions (if they are interested in learning more) or change the subject (if they'd...

TL;DR in English: Pay attention to eye contact. Embrace the occasional silence. Create intentional breaks in the conversation. Resist the urge to overshare. Avoid sensitive topics. Avoid long stories or monologues. Take the pressure off yourself. Demonstrate active listening skills. Have open body language.

The amount you will save as a result of your deduction depends on your income tax bracket. Before you make a donation, you should determine which tax bracket you fall into.  Imagine the car you donate is valued at $1,000. If your tax bracket is 10%, then the value of the deduction will only be $100. If your tax bracket is 15%, then the value of the deduction is $150. If you don't know which bracket you fall into, you can check at http://individual.troweprice.com/public/Retail/Planning-&-Research/Tax-Planning/Prepare-Your-Taxes/Tax-Rate-Schedules. The IRS only allows you to deduct the fair market value of the donated car. Since most charities will sell the donated car, you won’t know the actual market value until the charity sells it. However, before you make the decision to donate, get a good estimate of value beforehand.  There are many car valuation services you can use. Kelley Blue Book and Edmunds are two of the oldest and most reputable, and they have calculators on their websites. When you estimate the value, the estimate must be for the same make, model, year, condition, and accessories package as the car you donate. In 2016, the standard deduction for a single person paying taxes in the US is $6,300, $9,300 for the head of household, and $12,600 for married couples filing jointly.  If you don’t itemize, you can deduct this amount automatically. In order to make itemizing deductions worth it, your total deductions need to exceed this amount.   Review your previous tax filings to determine the projected amount of deductions for the current year. Therefore, the fair market value of your car, coupled with your other itemized deductions, must exceed the standard deduction in order to see any financial benefit from the donation. Even if you aren't able to deduct the donation from your taxes, remember that there are other psychological and societal benefits involved with charitable donations. Keep in mind that you could give the auto directly to a needy family in lieu of a charity.

TL;DR in English: Determine your tax bracket. Estimate the fair market value. Compare the estimated deduction to the standard deduction.

If you want to keep your marble countertop in pristine condition, it’s vital that you wipe up any spills as soon as they happen. Marble is especially sensitive to acidic substances such as coffee, soda, fruit juices, and many common cleaning products. As soon as a liquid comes in contact with your counter, wipe it up with a paper towel, sponge, or soft cloth. Keep a hand towel nearby to ensure quick clean up. If you wipe up a spill and it has already created a stain, remove the stain right then and there. Different kinds of stains require different removal techniques. Make sure you remove the stain quickly and properly.  Remove an oil-based stain with a soft liquid cleanser, liquid detergent, ammonia, or mineral spirits. Remove an organic stain with a mixture of 12% hydrogen peroxide and a few drops of ammonia. Remove water stains with dry steel wool. All of these items create a barrier between your countertop and potentially damaging substances. This will prevent etches, scratches, and burn marks from permanently scarring your marble countertop. If your marble countertop is looking especially dirty, dull, or stained, it might be best to apply a paste-like cleaning agent, such as baking soda, to your entire countertop. Mix the paste and slather it onto the counter evenly with a spatula so that it’s ¼ to ½ inch (0.64-1.27cm) thick. Cover it with plastic wrap and tape down the edges with painter’s tape. Remove the plastic after 24-48 hours, let the paste dry out, and then remove it with a wooden or plastic scraper.

TL;DR in English: Wipe up spills immediately. Remove stains right away. Use cutting boards, coasters, placemats, and trivets. Apply a poultice to your countertop.

You married your spouse, not your family. While his or her family members are part of the package, they are not a part of your intimacy and they do not share the same journey with the two of you. If you make it very obvious that you're not bothered by jealousy, insinuations, rumors or gossip, it will soon become clear to your S-I-L that her barbs, attitude and meanness aren't pricking you in the way that they used to. Eventually, it ceases to be profitable or enjoyable for her to keep bothering and most likely she'll begrudgingly go and find someone else to taunt and hassle.  Spend less time around your S-I-L. In what ways are you putting yourself in her pathway? While it may feel like you have to put up with her, you can find ways to reduce the time spent together. For example, ask other family members to meet you at different times than when she is around, more often than not. Don't always do this, or she will have a legitimate cause for complaining, but time spent with other family members shouldn't always involve her presence. If you live far away and have to visit once a year, stay in your own accommodation to give yourself respite. Take walks, get outside and don't overstay any welcome when it comes to drawn-out family events that press your buttons. Families know the pressure points better than anyone and unfortunately, some like to press them. At such events, your S-I-L probably has alliances that she can set in train to be even more effective, so the less time spent near such complaint-prone cliques, the better. When you are around your S-I-L, try active listening and acknowledgment in place of letting your fog of self-defensiveness take control. When she gets on top of her complaining mountain, instead of trying to topple her off with "if you think that's bad, you should live in my shoes" replies, actually focus on her and try to discern what is really driving her jibes, whining and gossip. By not making this about you, you may be truly surprised at what you unearth.As for responding to her,...

TL;DR in English: Get on with your lives together. Listen for real. Be compassionate.

Mention 2-3 people who have helped to turn the event from an idea into reality. State their names and the role that each person played.  An example of acknowledging individual people is saying, “We couldn’t have pulled off this fundraiser without the hard work and dedication of Grace and Sally, who worked tirelessly from day 1 to make today a reality.” Avoid reading off a long list of people or sponsors, as your audience will begin to get bored. Stick to just a handful of highlights. Point out what's coming up later on in the event or over the next few days, if applicable. Pick the parts that are the most important, and give people encouragement about anything they should stick around for or pay special attention to.  For instance, at a conference, you might point out when the dinner will be held, or where particular sessions will take place. At a wedding reception, you might note when dancing will start or when the cake will be served. Welcome the guests again, but this time in a way that relates to the overview that you just mentioned. For example at an informal gathering you could say, "I'm excited to get to know all of the new faces here during our legendary cricket game!" For a more formal event, wish everyone a smooth transition for the next part of the event. Alternatively, you could end the body of your speech during an informal gathering by saying, “I can't wait to see you all out on the dancefloor!”

And, as you begin to walk in the miraculous, you will see people instantly healed by the power of God when you pray for them, and then your life will change in the most amazing and exciting way. Here are details to increase your likelihood of success. So, overtime, look up all the associated scriptures, but you do not have to know every related scripture to begin following Christ's example. This is very important and can't be missed. The Bible says The preparations of the heart (your inner being) belong to man, but the answer of the tongue (the Gospel) is from the Lord (Proverbs 16:1). Receive empowerment by receiving the promise of the Father which is the baptism of the Holy Spirit  (Acts 1:4-5). When you are baptised in the Holy Spirit you will receive power from God (Acts 1:8). This will open up to you the power to be a witness and to do all the miraculous works of the Spirit, including  speaking in tongues (Acts 2:4) -- and so open the ability to lay hands on the sick and see them recover by the power of God (Mark 16:17-20). The Bible tells us that the effective fervent prayer of a righteous person avails, or achieves, much  (James 5:17) -- but God doesn't listen to those who do evil, who live by the flesh (1 Peter 3:12). Make a decision that you are going to believe God's promise of healing and that He has empowered you to present the Gospel and heal the sick. Therefore I say unto you, 'What things soever you desire, when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you shall have them' (Mark 11:24). We must not willfully hold anything against anyone, if we want to see the healing power of God, And when you stand praying, forgive, if you [realize that you] have anything against anyone: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses (Mark 11:25).   Be kind. Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice. Be kind and tender-hearted to one another, forgiving each other just as in Christ God forgave you. Ephesians 4:32 Jesus spent a...

TL;DR in English: Begin to study the scriptures of how to do as Jesus did. Prepare yourself. Make sure you have received God's power. Be righteous in Christ. Believe God/Jesus works through you. Forgive: Spend time in prayer: Read the Bible. Love proactively. Hunger and thirst: Connect with other people.

Bend forward so that your braids hang down towards the ground. Gather all of your braids together into a high ponytail on the top of your head, then straighten back up. Secure your ponytail with a hair tie. If you want a more colorful look, slip a scrunchy over it. Alternatively, secure the ponytail by taking 3-5 twists from the back of the gathered hair and wrapping them around the ponytail until you reach the ends. Then, tuck in the ends and add bobby pins for additional support. Slide your thumbs back through your braids at about ear level. Gather the braids above your thumbs into a high ponytail, then secure them with a hair tie. Take 1 to 2 braids from the ponytail, then wrap them around the hair tie to hide it. Use a large bobby pin to secure the wrapped braids to the ponytail's base. Begin with a high half-up, half-down ponytail. Drape the ponytail across your forehead, then wrap it around the side of your head, keeping it above your ear. Secure it to the back of your head with a large bobby pin. Use your fingers to shape and sculpt your turban into your desired fullness and look.  It does not matter which side you wrap the ponytail. Make sure that it is covering your front hairline, however. Braid the ponytail first for a unique look. Start with a high half-up, half-down ponytail, then split it in half. Cross the left and right sections across your forehead, covering your front hairline. Wrap them around the sides of your head and gather them at the back of your head. Twist them together, tuck them under the wrapped hair, and secure them with a large bobby pin.  Use your fingers to sculpt and shape your wrapped hair so that it's as full as you want it to be. Make sure that the left and right sections swoop across your forehead, then sweep up above your ears.

TL;DR in English: Gather your hair into a simple, high ponytail. Try a half-up, half-down ponytail instead. Wrap a half-up, half-down ponytail into a turban. Convert a half-up, half-down ponytail into a double-wrapped turban.

Place the SD card on a flat surface with the label facing upward. Doing so will help you find the lock switch for the SD card. If you are using a micro- or mini-SD card, insert it into an SD card adapter, and place the adapter label-up on a flat surface. It should be on the upper-left side of the SD card. The lock switch is typically a small white or silver tab that protrudes from the left side of the SD card. Slide the lock switch toward the gold connectors at the bottom of the SD card. This turns off the SD card's write protection and enables you to store files and data on the card.

Soak your finger in warm water for about 15 to 20 minutes. Soaking helps relieve pain in the finger and helps with swelling. You can do this three or four times a day.  Dry the fingernail thoroughly after soaking it. You should keep your ingrown fingernail dry unless you are soaking it. After soaking your finger, you should then place any ointment or oil on the fingernail. You should also replace any cotton or bandages after soaking the finger. Another option to help an ingrown fingernail is to soak your hand in Epsom salt. Fill a bowl with warm water and add a couple of tablespoons of Epsom salt per quart of water. Let your hand soak for 15 to 20 minutes.  Epsom salts help relieve pain and inflammation.  If you want to apply a bandage to the ingrown fingernail, dry the finger completely after soaking. Then apply a bandage. Hydrogen peroxide is used to prevent infection. You can soak your ingrown fingernail in a solution of warm water and hydrogen peroxide. Add half a cup of peroxide to the warm water.  You can soak your finger for 15 to 20 minutes. You may also place the peroxide onto a cotton ball or piece of gauze and apply it directly the the ingrown fingernail. Tea tree oil has antifungal and antibacterial properties, which can help with an ingrown fingernail. When  you soak your nail, add two or three drops of tea tree oil to the warm water. Mix a drop or two of tea tree oil with a tablespoon of olive oil and rub it on the nail to prevent infection.  The tea tree oil can also help keep the nail a bit softer. You can put a drop of tea tree oil diluted in a tablespoon of olive oil on the nail daily. You can use tea tree oil as an alternative to antibiotic ointment since you probably won’t need both.  After the tea tree oil soaks in, put a dab of Vicks VapoRub or Mentholatum on the sore area. The menthol and camphor will work to reduce the pain and help soften the nail. Keep the menthol or camphor on for 12 to 24 hours using a bandage or a small piece of gauze. If you are using cotton to lift your nail,...

Draw a circle and a curved line under that for the chin. Add guidelines like those shown to help you with the facial features. The proportions for the face are up to you, and will vary depending on whether you want it to be realistic or cartoony. The illustrations show a cute, cartoon girl (so the proportions are not very realistic). Draw two half-circles for the ears, on the same guideline as the eyes. They can be larger or look different, however, if you want a less cartoonish or cute-looking girl. Draw bangs for her and make her hair short, or keep it long and wavy. Use your imagination. Draw a small neck for her, a circle for the upper body and an oval for the lower body. Draw small circles for the hands and feet. Put in cute little ovals for her fingers. You don’t have to include the detail of fingernails, but if you do, make them fairly short and emphasize them later by coloring them in (to serve as nail polish). Add a pattern if you want, or just draw a simple dress. Draw some shoes and add a floppy hat or a ribbon for her hair. The specifics are up to you--again, be creative! You can also add some sort of background or another outside element to your drawing at this point, such as shadowing. You’re done!

TL;DR in English: Sketch the head. Add two circles for the eyes and two thin curved lines above that for the eyebrows. Add a small nose and tiny pair of lips. Sketch in the hair. Now sketch in the body. For the arms and legs, draw 2 connected ovals each. Sketch in her dress. Add final lines and any additional details, like eyelashes, ribbons, etc. Outline the little girl and erase the guidelines. Color her and her clothes in.

Saw the 2 8 ft (2.4 m) 2x6 (38mm x 140mm) boards in half lengthwise to get 4 48 inches (120 cm) wooden pieces. Do the same for the 2 6 ft (1.8 m) 2x6s (38mm x 140mm) to create 4 36 in (91 cm) pieces. Together, these components will form the basic structure of your horseshoe pit.  If you think you might want backboards for your horseshoe pits, go ahead and cut 3  3 ft (0.91 m) 2x6 (38mm x 140mm) boards and 2 2 ft (0.61 m) 2x2s (38mm x 38mm), as well. Use a circular saw to cut your boards quickly and efficiently. If you don’t have a circular saw, you can also saw the boards by hand, or have your supplier cut your lumber to your preferred dimensions before bringing it home. Always wear thick, rugged work gloves and protective eyewear anytime you’re operating a power saw to keep yourself safe.

TL;DR in English: Cut your lumber to the appropriate size.

In anticipation of passport processing times, apply for your passport as soon as possible. Passport applications can be completed online and printed, or you can obtain one from a United States post office that has passport acceptance services.  If you already have a passport but it will expire while you are working in Canada, go ahead and update it before you leave to avoid any future headaches. Many people move to Canada with a 4-year visa, so keep that in mind when reviewing yours. If you need to expedite your passport, you can request and pay for a faster application processing service. If you have family moving with you to Canada, make sure to get their passports and documents arranged, too. You can do this several months before you move to Canada. In fact, doing so is recommended, so you can start building a good credit rating there. To get started, contact the local bank to your future province in Canada. These banks can even have new debit cards waiting for you when you arrive in Canada and they can help you with transferring your funds from your current country to your new Canadian bank account. Before moving from your home country, don’t forget to close down all of your open accounts, including your internet provider services, electricity and other utilities, and whatever else you may have open.  Don’t forget to cancel your current subscriptions and arrange to have your mail forwarded to your new address before you leave. Start making your travel arrangements as soon as you are able to. If you plan to fly, there are airlines that offer discounted one-way air fare for people moving to Canada, so look into that possibility. The decision will be made based on what type of visa you’ve secured. If you’re driving, start planning your route, research which checkpoint you will go through when crossing the border, and begin making preparations to get through border patrol smoothly. You can obtain this information through CIC’s website.

TL;DR in English: Obtain or update your passport early. Open a Canadian bank account. Settle your finances. Book your flight or plan your drive.

Seed packets are widely available at local garden centers, national garden store chains and online seed distributors. To ensure you are purchasing fresh seeds, check the date stamp on each seed packet. Buy seeds in bulk. Some garden centers offer seeds in bulk, which can be less expensive than seed packets. Before purchasing bulk seeds, be sure you have a large area to plant all of the seeds because they cannot be stored for future growing seasons. The category of the annual will determine when and where to start the seeds. Some annuals can be seeded directly into garden soil, while others should be started indoors. Consult the seed packets or seed catalogs to determine how hardy the annual is.  Select hardy annual seeds that can be sown directly in an outdoor garden. Plant hardy annual seeds in early- to mid- spring, as soon as the soil is ready for planting. Hardy annuals include spider flower, bachelor's buttons, pinks, calendula, larkspur, nigella, snapdragons, baby's breath, pincushion flower and heliotrope. Choose half-hardy annual seeds than can be planted outdoors after the threat of hard frost has passed. Half-hardy annuals can withstand a light frost, but temperatures should not dip below 25 degrees F (3.89 degrees C). Some examples of half-hardy annuals include painted tongue, statice, China aster, nicotiana, chrysanthemum and salvia. Start tender annuals indoors or after the threat of all frost. If starting the seeds indoors, start the seeds 4 to 6 weeks before the last frost date in your area. Otherwise, seeds can be sown directly into the ground in late spring or early summer when the nighttime temperature stays above 40 degrees F (4.44 degrees C). Tender annuals include cosmos, morning glories, marigold, zinnias, celosia, sunflowers and amaranth. Many annual seeds germinate in 4 to 7 days, but some can take 3 to 4 weeks. Most annual seeds germinate in darkness, but others may require special lighting. Some seeds, such as morning glories and lupines, have hard seed coats that need to be soaked...

TL;DR in English: Purchase seeds at a garden store. Determine whether the seeds are hardy annuals, half-hardy annuals or tender annuals. Determine the germination requirements.

Make sure the dough is thoroughly kneaded before storing it. Use baking spray to lightly coat the plastic container on the bottom and the sides so the dough doesn’t stick. You can shape the dough into balls before storing it if you want to, but it is not required. Place the dough inside the container and seal it with a lid or plastic wrap. While the dough is in the fridge, it will slowly rise and gain flavor. Make sure to use the fresh dough within 3 days, or else it won’t taste as good. The pizza dough will expand and rise the longer you leave it in the fridge. Take the lid off of the container and let the dough warm up before you cook it. This brings it back up to a workable temperature so you can stretch and knead it. Make a fist and push the dough down to reduce its size. This helps reshape the dough back into a ball and releases the gas bubbles formed from the yeast. Let the dough rest for another 15 minutes after you punch it.

TL;DR in English:


Encourage birds to spend time in your yard. Hide plants by using strongly scented herbs. Use organic controllers to rid your yard of caterpillars.

Depending on their health, independence, and cognitive state, senior citizens may feel more comfortable in a familiar setting. This would save your elderly honoree the stress of getting to another location for his or her party. It may be preferable in certain cases, and may be frowned upon in others. Plan to visit beforehand to lend a hand with cleaning, decorating, and preparing for the party. Do not leave this for the guest of honor to do! While this is still a change of scenery for your honored guest, it may be more comfortable and intimate than planning a larger get-together at a public venue. A favorite restaurant can be a familiar place that still provides the social and celebratory atmosphere that your nonagenarian may desire. Consider booking a private room. This is a way to make a regular restaurant reservation into a more luxe experience! Depending on the unique personality and interests of your guest of honor, there are many creative venues to hold a fantastic party.  If it’s going to be a summer event, consider an outdoor location such as a beach or a park. Consider renting a boat and hosting a party on the water for any sea-lovers. Plan a gathering in multiple venues, such as a pre-theatre dinner at a local restaurant and then a walk over to see a theatre performance.

TL;DR in English: Ask the honoree if s/he would rather go out, or stay in. Host the party at the home of the guest of honor. Hold the party at the home of a family member. Book a favorite restaurant. Consider a creative alternative option.

Studies show that significant alcohol intake can contribute to the development of breast cancer. Try to limit your alcohol intake to no more than one alcoholic drink per day. The carcinogenic properties of tobacco have been linked to a variety of different cancers, including breast cancer. If you smoke, talk to your doctor about the best way to reduce or eliminate your tobacco use. There is some evidence that your diet can affect your risk for breast cancer and other types of cancer. The Mediterranean Diet may be particularly helpful for reducing your risk of getting breast cancer. A good diet can also help you maintain a healthy weight, which is an important factor in breast cancer prevention. The Mediterranean Diet is recommended by the Mayo Clinic for breast and heart health. This diet focuses on plant based nutrition (fruits, vegetables, mixed nuts, and legumes), use of healthy fats (olive oil, canola oil), and a reduced intake of salt and red meat. Not only is exercise good for your body, but it helps you to maintain a healthy weight. Studies show that people who are physically active are less likely to be diagnosed with breast cancer. Try to exercise at least four hours a week. Avoid radiation-based medical imaging techniques, like X-rays, CT scans, or PET scans, unless you and your doctor feel that they are medically necessary. Exposure to radiation can put you at risk for breast cancer and other types of cancer. Long-term exposure to hormones in hormone replacement therapy or hormonal birth control has been linked to an increased risk of developing breast cancer. If you are taking or considering birth control pills or other forms of hormone-based therapy, talk to your doctor about the potential risks and benefits. Discuss how you can limit or reduce the dose and duration of your therapy in order to minimize the risk of developing breast cancer. Not all mothers are able to breastfeed, but if it works for you and your child, breastfeeding can be beneficial to your breast health. Breastfeeding has been...

TL;DR in English: Reduce alcohol use. Avoid using tobacco. Maintain a healthy diet. Get plenty of exercise. Limit unnecessary exposure to radiation. Talk to your doctor about the risks of hormone therapy. Breastfeed, if you can.

Fried squid and bloody Marys for breakfast on a Wednesday--why not? Weekdays don't have to be plain oatmeal and black coffee. If it sounds good to you and there's no harm in doing it, do it. Breaking up monotony and listening to your own impulses can be a great way of keeping life fresh and exciting. As long as it's legal and not counterproductive to some necessary part of your life, act impulsively. Live in the moment. Sometimes, allowing yourself to break small rules of protocol or tact can be a good way of asserting your freedom in the world. Play what you want on the jukebox, even if the other bar patrons don't want all 11 minutes of "Heard it Through the Grapevine." Expanding your perspective of the world and learning to embrace freedom requires that you occasionally get outside your comfort zone and experience new things. Visit new places, try new activities, eat new foods. Explore the world and enjoy it. Traveling can be big or small. You don't have to hitchhike to South America to travel and experience something new. Visit new parts of town you've never visited, or explore the small town next to yours. Go somewhere you don't know anyone and learn everything you can. If it's new to you, Brooklyn might as well be Crawfordsville. Allow yourself to be proud of yourself. Allow yourself to celebrate successes, or even to celebrate a lack of failures. Each day you've successfully negotiated is cause for reasonable celebrations. Spend time with people you enjoy and give yourself good reasons to work hard. The older you get and the more of the world you experience, the more one thing becomes clear: the only circumstance that's keeping you from happiness and freedom is yourself. Let go of your preconceptions, your hang-ups, and your fears. Free your mind by letting yourself experience the world fully and make each day count. Live the life you want to lead. There's no reason not to. Be careful of becoming a slave to your ideal version of yourself. It's easy to say, "Everything will be better after I graduate" or...

TL;DR in English: Allow yourself to act impulsively, sometimes. Visit new places. Celebrate every accomplishment, no matter how small. Start living freely right now.

If photography and music are your passion, then experience is the best tool to help you improve and get noticed. Many music photographers suggest always carrying a camera with you. Taking pictures of real-life scenarios in addition to concerts will help you develop your instincts so you know when to snap the perfect photo of the front man on stage. Nearly all concert venues will keep the audience in darkness while highlighting only the stage. Practice utilizing the stage lights to get the best photos possible. If you don’t yet have access to a concert venue, try to recreate the light settings in your home so you can get a feel for how your pictures will turn out. Contact band photographers and offer to work as a free intern for a few months. You can learn practical information about photo shoots, pricing, and communication with bands while you pick up pointers on creating amazing photographs. You can get photo passes and develop contacts by becoming a dues-paying member of a society of photographers and photojournalists. They may help you to get noticed by labels or magazines in need of band photographers. Instead of a resume or a degree, a photographer's worth is judged by their pictures. Create a professional-looking book as well as an online site that showcases your best work. You can also post your shots on social media sites like Instagram and Tumblr. Many photo editing programs can help you create watermarks on your images, which will prevent others from passing your work off as their own. Create a logo for your photography business, or simply use your name or initials. While big venues and clubs require you to have permission to take photos, many small or local bars or clubs don’t. Attend as many shows as possible at local clubs or concert venues and take photographs of the performers. Experiment with your camera settings, as well as with angles and locations. If you take photos at a small or local venue, you may be able to meet the band members after their performance. Tell them you’ve taken...

TL;DR in English: Take photos of everything, everywhere. Practice taking photos in dark settings. Find a mentor. Join media or photography organizations in your area. Build your portfolio. Protect your images by using watermarks. Find a venue that will allow you to take photographs. Meet the band members after the show.

An effective way to avoid caterpillars is to encourage birds to make their home in your yard. While this may not be an ideal solution for gardeners that want to keep the local avians away from their berry patch, it will certainly work for gardeners with plants that don’t appeal to the bird’s taste buds. To get birds to come to your yard:  Set out a bird feeder with a cone around it to keep out hungry squirrels and a birdbath to encourage the local avian populace to visit. Ducks and chickens also enjoy caterpillars and if one has the space they might add either for both bug control and the tasty eggs. Placing mugwort, sage, thyme, rosemary, and/or peppermint* around affected plants may remedy some caterpillar problems. These strongly scented herbs will help disguise the creature’s favorite foods so that they head elsewhere for dinner. Intercropping, or placing different plants together in one area, is another way to confuse insect predators. There are several organic controls that can be used to get rid of caterpillars. BT, or Bacillus thuringiensis, is an excellent option for keeping pests out of the yard. However, this substance is not always easy to find. To use BT:  “Kurstaki” BT kills most species of caterpillars. Mix it up according to the manufacturer’s instructions and spray the plants thoroughly, covering the tops and bottoms of the leaves as well as the stems. It can be sprayed on flowers and landscape plants every three to five days until the caterpillars are under control. Gardeners who cannot find BT should try Neem based sprays instead. These sprays should only be used as a last resort because a number of beneficial insects may perish along with the caterpillars.

TL;DR in English:


Seek medical advice if you have improved your diet and your lifestyle, but your digestive conditions remain. Keep a food diary for several days leading up to your appointment. Pay attention to your poop. See a Gastroenterologist. Make an appointment to be tested for food allergies.

If you rush up to a quiet-type and start peppering him with a million questions, you're more likely to get a blank stare and a bunch of one-word answers than a good conversation. Ease into it. When you see a shy guy, start saying "Hello" as you pass in the hallway. Smile, give a little wave, and know that you're making progress. Start using his name when you say hi. While it might seem like a little thing, it'll mean a lot for him to know that you know it. Open body language means you've got your head up, your shoulders back, and your limbs uncrossed, suggesting that you're willing to talk and open to listen. Shyer types will be much more likely to open up a little bit and mirror your body language and behavior, so it's a good idea to try to adopt open body language to help out the process. Shy guys will have an easier time talking about things outside of themselves. Music, sports, movies, books, even the weather, are all better topics for a shy guy than to try to prod him into talking about himself. So, asking, "What'd you think of Walking Dead?" will be a way better question than, "How was your weekend?"  Check out Facebook, if you can, or other social networking. Notice a guy taking lots of pictures of his pet dog? Strike up a convo about dogs. If you're not sure what a particular guy is into, try finding out from someone else. Talk to his friends. Talk about something you know you have in common, if you know something. If you both are in class together, talk to him about the teacher that you have, or a particular book you're reading for class, or an assignment. Often, shy guys get nervous when conversations last more than a little while, because they're scared of messing up, saying something dumb, or drawing a blank when it's their turn to say something. Don't force the issue, especially at first, by keeping your conversations short.  Start by saying "Hi" regularly, then have a quick exchange or two about something. Talk about that assignment by asking a question. When you get the answer, just say, "Yeah,...

TL;DR in English: Start saying "hello" on a regular basis. Use open body language. try to figure out what his interests are. Keep your interactions brief. Go slowly.

Bend the stamen wires in half so that the bead ends form 10 heads when bent up together. This piece becomes the stem, so make sure it is long enough. Wrap around the bent stamen pieces and the stem wire with florist's tape to bind in place. This forms the stamen centerpiece and stem. Place the middle two petals opposite each other around the stamen piece. Wrap with florist's wire to bind them to the stamen centerpiece and a little part of the stem. Wrap florist's wire around to bind them to the stamen centerpiece and a little of the stem. Take the tape all the way down to the base of the stem, to completely cover the wire. The flower is now complete but you may find that you need to twist the petals a little to make them appear more realistic. This is really a case of experimentation, so just play around a little to get the idea. Vary the colors for variety, especially if making a bunch of flowers (see next part).

TL;DR in English: Use five stamen pieces per flower. Attach the bent stamens to one long piece of thin wire. Arrange five petals around the stamen centerpiece. Add the other three outer petals at even spacings around the middle petals. Wrap the florist's tape around the top of the stem. Make any needed adjustments. Repeat for as many flowers as you wish to make.

If you find yourself getting stuck by the introduction and it is preventing you from writing the rest of your paper, skip it for now. Just write your thesis statement at the top of your paper and start on your body paragraphs.   You may find it easier to write your introduction after you finish your essay, after you know what you end up saying with your essay. It is more important to get into a groove with your writing than to write each part in the order that it comes in the essay. An introduction should introduce your topic, state your argument, and provide your reader with the context of your essay. If sentences in your introduction do not help with any of those goals, they are likely unnecessary. A hook, often the very first sentence in your paper, is a sentence or two that “hooks” or grabs the interest of your audience. Commonly used hooks may be good for novice writers, but some college professors think that certain hooks are overused.  A few ideas for hooks follow.   A statistic (particularly one that seems surprising to the reader) can be a good way to start certain types of papers. Be sure the statistic is from a reliable source, like one from your school’s library database. A personal story or anecdote told in detail can draw the reader in. It should, however, be relevant to the topic, and you will need to explicitly connect it to your thesis statement. This may not be appropriate in a formal essay. A quotation from a famous person can be a good lead-in. However, since this is one method that has been overused, try putting a twist on this method by using a surprising quote, contradicting the quote, or using it in a new context. You will also need to connect this to your thesis clearly. Illuminating a paradox or puzzling scenario could draw your reader in by making them question something that is usually taken for granted.  Try to avoid introductions that start by giving a dictionary definition of a word and explaining it or by asking a question. Avoid over-used and essentially empty phrases like...

TL;DR in English: Consider writing your introduction last. Remember the purpose of an introduction. Write a hook. Transition from your hook to your thesis.

See a doctor right away if you show any of the following symptoms:  Severe heartburn that is not helped by medication Incontinence Diarrhea or constipation that doesn't go away Abdominal pain that interferes with your daily life Vomiting Bloody or black stool Sudden weight loss Your doctor will probably ask you what you eat and what symptoms you have.  Record everything you ate, how much you ate, when you ate it, and how your system responded. This will help you and your doctor identify patterns indicating that certain foods might be triggers for you. If you are having GI issues, it's important you take a look at your poop before visiting the doctor, as this can actually provide him with a lot of information. You can look at a Bristol Stool Scale to determine what kind of poop you have and how to describe it and talk about it with your doctor. This information can help your doctor determine how quickly food is passing through your body and may give clues toward certain digestive problems. This is a physician who specializes in the gastrointestinal tract and liver. A Gastroenterologist can determine if you have reflux, motility problems, colon polyps, gallbladder disease or an infection, for which she can test with endoscopy and biopsy. Your doctor may screen you for allergies in several ways:  A skin test in which the doctor will prick your skin, inserting a small amount of the potential allergens under your skin. If you are allergic, you will probably develop a raised bump. An elimination diet in which you stop eating all foods you suspect to be allergens for one to two weeks (until the symptoms disappear). Then you add the food items slowly back into your diet, one by one. When the symptoms return, you know that that food is triggering your digestive problems. A blood test to measure your immune response to various foods. An oral food challenge in which the doctor will monitor your reaction as you eat foods that are potential allergens.

If you’re determined to land a job before completing your visa application process, this is the visa for you! Your future employer will be supporting your application thanks to your relevant skills. This is one of two main categories of work visas in Australia. To get this visa, you’ll go through testing to determine your skills and how good of a candidate you are. This is the second of the two main categories of Australian skilled work visas.  The idea of testing to get a visa may be stressful, get yourself prepared by researching requirements and interviewing techniques. Stay calm in the interview and be friendly. Show them how much you can bring to Australia! This, and every work visa category and subcategory, has some unique requirements, but all skilled work visas require, among other things, that you be under age fifty and possess “competent English” language skills. Try to learn some English before you apply for a visa by enrolling in local classes or studying online. You’ll be living in a country where English is the main language, so this will be a good skill to know! An EOI is not a visa application in itself, but rather a way to bring yourself to the attention of Australian employers and government entities, who may in turn choose to support your subsequent visa application. If you have the right mix of attractive skills and qualities, an employer or government agency may nominate you for an appropriate work visa.  You’ll need a completed EOI to apply for a points-tested visa. A completed EOI is not required of, but is available to, applicants for an employer-sponsored visa.

The most complimentary shade of red depends on your skin tone. Before wearing a red dress, figure out if you have a warm, cool, or neutral skin tone. Your veins can give a clue as to your skin tone. Blueish or purple veins indicate a cool skin tone. Greener veins indicate a warm skin tone. Veins that do not show one strong color indicate a neutral skin tone.   Think about how you look in silver or gold. Silver tends to look best on warm skin tones and gold looks best on cooler skin tones. Neutral skin tones tend to look good in either shade. Warmer skin tones tend to tan easily and do not burn. Cooler skin tones are more difficult to tan and burn easily. If you have a warmer skin tone, pick a color of red that will compliment that. In general, people with warm skin tones should opt for nature-like colors.  Go for warmer shades of red over jewel-tones and lighter, brighter shades. Look for things like deep red or red the color of a tomato.  Reds with other colors mixed in also work, such as violet-red or orange-red. Stay away from very bright, jewel tones like ruby reds if you have a warm skin tone. If you have a cooler skin tone, you will want a dress color to match. Certain shades of red work better with cool skin tones than others. Jewel tones of red, like ruby red, work for a cool skin tone. You can also go for brighter shades, like a rosy red, if you have a cool tone. It's safe to wear primary red, which is the standard red you would find on a color wheel, if you have a cool tone as well. In general, neutral skin tones go well with most colors, so you can choose from any shade of red. You can pick whatever color you like. Bright reds tend to look great if you have a neutral tone. Neutral skin tone also looks good with slightly muted versions of primary colors, so you could also opt for a softer, lighter shade of red when selecting your dress.

TL;DR in English: Identify your skin tone. Choose a good color for a warm skin tone. Select a good color for a cool skin tone. Pick the right red for a neutral tone.

Think of your notes as a study guide for your course exams. The act of writing might help you remember certain things, but you probably won’t remember everything in the textbook if you’re not studying the notes you’ve taken.  Going back to review the notes can help you remember key concepts and specific terms, even months after you covered the information. If you work with other students in your class, you may want to exchange and share notes.  This can be a helpful strategy, as different students may focus or emphasize different concepts.  Additionally, if you have a friend or classmate who missed class or didn’t understand a concept, you can share your notes to help her. If you have an impending exam, you can convert your notes into flashcards. These can make it easier to learn and memorize names, dates, and definitions.  Additionally, you can use these flashcards to collaborate and study with another student or in a study group, which improves test performance.

TL;DR in English:


Recognize that there’s no one Elvish language to rule them all. Know that you’re likely familiar with Sindarin. Learn the Feanorian letters. Learn the Tengwar alphabet’s supplementary letters.

Choose a sweatshirt and sweatpants of the appropriate size for the costume wearer. You can go with white for a fully white sheep or a black sweatsuit for a black sheep. Choose a hooded sweatshirt for one version of the costume or a crew neck if you want to have a separate hat or headband.  If you think you’ll be too hot in a sweatsuit, you could go with a long sleeve shirt instead. Sweatpants are probably your best option for pants unless you want to choose some tights, leggings, or other simple black or white pants. If you use clothes you already have rather than buying new ones for the costume, remember that you’ll be using glue that is permanent. Once you make the costume, the clothes are ruined for regular wear. For a small child’s costume, you can use cotton balls because you won’t be covering a large area. If the costume is for an adult, you’ll want to use some kind of synthetic cotton or polyfill batting because it will attach more quickly, and cover more area, than cotton balls. You can use polyfill for a child’s costume, as well.  Cotton balls can be purchased at any big-box store or pharmacy. Batting can be purchased at big-box stores, but you might have to go to a craft store. Cotton balls give a more textured and authentic look, but cotton batting will attach much faster and cover more space. If you are in a hurry, don’t use cotton balls. It won’t be easy to wash the costume once it is fully assembled, so wash everything now if you want to. It is especially good to wash brand new clothes to break them in a little and make them more comfortable. It is not necessary to wash clothes that you’ve worn many times if they are clean already. Using hot glue or fabric glue, begin attaching the cotton to the shirt and pants. Bunch the cotton batting up as you glue it, so it looks like sheep's wool. Place the cotton balls close together so there aren’t gaps. You don’t have to cover the entire surface of the clothes with cotton. You can leave a few inches at the end of the sleeves and pant legs to mimic the...

TL;DR in English: Select a black or white sweatsuit. Choose cotton balls or polyfill. Wash the clothes. Glue cotton batting or cotton balls to the clothes.

Reverse flys help strengthen your shoulders and upper back.  This exercise can also help you maintain proper posture.  Stand up straight with feet shoulder width apart.  Bend your knees ever so slightly. Make sure to keep the spine neutral and core engaged —don't let the back arch. Hold a small dumbbell in each hand.  Lift arms out to your sides so they are parallel to the ground.  While engaging your core bend your torso over in front of you until your body is close to a 90 degree angle. Lower the weights and your arms down until they are straight in front of your face with arms straight.  Lift arms back up until they are parallel to the floor.  Repeat as necessary. Doing single-handed cable rows can help strengthen your back and specifically target each side of your body at a time.  This can also help correct any strength imbalances.  Set up a cable machine so that the handle is at chest-height.  Sit down in front of the machine with your legs straight out in front of you and stabilized by the machine. Grab the cable handle and pull your arm back towards your body.  Pull until your upper arm is flush with the side of your body and your arm is bent at a 90 degree angle. Pull with your shoulder and back muscles, not your arm.  Do not twist your body during the exercise.  Repeat this exercise multiple times with each arm. This exercise uses a barbell to create resistance in your back muscles.  Hold a barbell with both hands about shoulder width apart.  Make sure your palms are facing down. Bending your knees slightly, bend over at the waist until you're close to a 90 degree angle at the waist.  Ensure that you keep your back straight. Pull the barbell in towards your body around belly button level.  Hold the barbell here for a second or two and then lower back down to the starting position.  Repeat as many times as necessary.

TL;DR in English: Incorporate bent over reverse flys. Try seated cable rows. Incorporate a bent over row.

If you care about the person ignoring you and want to resolve the conflict, you’ll need to address the issue. Speaking in person is better than texting or talking on the phone since you’ll be able to see each other’s facial expressions and determine how genuine each other’s words and actions are.  You can call, text, or even send a note to arrange the meeting. Try saying something like, “I know that you’re very upset with me and I’d really like to talk about things. Can we meet for coffee at 10am on Saturday?” Try to choose a neutral meeting place so no one has the “home field” advantage. Now that you’ve gotten the person to agree to talk to you, get to the point. Even if you have a good idea of why they’ve been ignoring you, ask them to explain it from their perspective. You may be surprised at what the issue really is or why they think ignoring you is the right way to handle the problem. to what they have to say. Avoid being defensive or thinking of a rebuttal while they’re talking. This can be difficult, especially if they’re accusing you of something or think you’re in the wrong. However, do your best to listen to what they’re saying, read between the lines, and really try to see the situation from their side.  Use your body language to show them that you’re listening by making eye contact and nodding when you understand or agree. Don’t be afraid to ask questions if you need clarification. You can also repeat what they said to make sure you understand. if you’re in the wrong. If you did something to upset or hurt the other person, take responsibility for your actions. Put your ego aside so you can acknowledge your mistakes and apologize sincerely. Validating their feelings can go a long way toward restoring your relationship. Say something like, “I’m sorry that I didn’t invite you to girls’ night out, Jen. I can see that I hurt your feelings.” Once the other person has aired their grievances and feels heard, it’s your turn to explain how this conflict affected you. Share your perspective on the situation...

TL;DR in English: Reach out to arrange a face-to-face meeting. Ask them directly why they’re ignoring you. Listen carefully Apologize Explain your side of the story. Come up with a compromise or solution together, if possible. Accept that the relationship may not be worth saving.

The Lord of the Rings series was written in part as an extension of Tolkien’s interest in creating new languages.  You could even say that the characters were literary devices through whom he could use the languages he loved to invent.  And invent he did: there are 15 different dialects of Elvish alone.  However, only two – Quenya and Sindarin – have enough established words and grammar rules to be functionally used.  People study, speak, and write in each of these languages. Sindarin was the Elvish language that Tolkien featured most frequently in the Lord of the Rings series. The names of many places and characters in the series are Sindarin, and the dialect was the most common Elvish language during the fictional time period of Middle Earth.  Sindarin is closely related to Quenya.  The distinctions between the two have to do with specific aspects of the fictional histories Tolkien created. Quenya, which uses words that mostly end in vowels or r, l, or n, is based on Finnish, a language Tolkien particularly favored. Sindarin words almost always end in consonants, and consonant clusters are more common.  Sindarin reminds many people of Celtic languages, and was based on Welsh. Though Tolkien also invented several alphabets, the Feanorian letters – which make up the Tengwar alphabet –  were most prominently featured in his work, and are most commonly used today. Depending on dialect, this alphabet is written in different modes. The Tengwar alphabet is always written left to right, in horizontal lines.  Find an image of the Feanorian letters online.  Note that different modes will affect the appearance of certain letters. Further, be aware that different renditions of Tolkien’s alphabets are extremely common.  Different renditions may appear differently depending on the fictional historical time period, or specific Tolkien piece, from which they were derived. Some common two-letter combinations in English – such as “sh”, “nd” and “ld” are replaced by individual letters of the Tengwar alphabet.   These letters...

Talk to more experienced surfers or instructors if you can. Learn basic surfing etiquette before you head out.

Your parents want to make sure you know how to care for any pet. Spend some time online looking up the basics of rabbit care on websites like the Humane Society and the ASPCA.  Rabbits usually live in cages or huts that are stocked with cedar or wood shavings. If your parents worry about messes, rabbits can be litter trained. Rabbits primarily eat grass hay, dark green vegetables, and pellets. Let your parents know you understand how to feed your rabbit a healthy diet. Your parents want to make sure your rabbit is treated well. Look up how to socialize and handle a rabbit. With any pet, parents tend to worry about care and cost. Luckily, most concerns can be addressed if you're proactive about finding solutions. Ask yourself why your parents may say "No" and jot down a list of potential reasons they may refuse.  Cost is usually a major concern for parents. Research how much rabbits typically cost at shelters and pet stores, as well as costs associated for food and supplies. Time is another big issue. Your parents will want to make sure your rabbit gets the care it needs. Some people tend to think of rabbits as messy pets. Your parents may worry about things like the smell caused by a rabbit's cage. Once you have a list of concerns, go through your list. Think of ways you could address the concerns in case your parents raise them while you're talking. This can really help show your parents you have maturely thought this through.  If cost is an issue, you could offer to get a part time job to pay for the rabbit's care. If your parents are worried about time, look at your own schedule. Find pockets of time each day where you could commit to caring for your rabbit. Offer to clean the cage regularly and keep it in your room. This can help clear up concerns about smell. It's normal to be nervous if you're making a big request. Practicing ahead of time can help. You can jot down a rough idea of what you want to say and then rehearse in front of a mirror. This helps you go into the conversation calm. Don't write out...

TL;DR in English: Do some research on the basics of rabbit care. Make a list of potential concerns your parents may have. Find ways to address potential concerns. Practice what you're going to say first. Pick a good time to talk.

You may wish to consider keeping her as an indoor cat, to protect her from the hazard of traffic that she cannot hear. An alternative is to build a secure outdoor run so she has some access to fresh air, but won’t have access to any streets. Some cat owners have had good experiences using a normal, "hearing" cat as a playmate for the deaf cat.The body language of the hearing cat provides visual clues to the deaf cat that something has just happened. For instance, the hearing cat is aware ‘Mom has just opened the fridge door to get dinner out’ and rushes into the kitchen. The deaf cat, seeing his companion go, follows out of interest. This can work surprisingly well when one cat learns to take the lead. However, this depends on the two cats getting along, which cannot be guaranteed! Develop your own visual code for your cat, such as beckoning as a cue for your cat to come to you  (reward her compliance with a treat) or by pointing to a certain spot to get her to go there and away from trouble. Reward positive behavior with a treat and she will quickly learn to obey. You can also stamp on the floor to create vibrations.

TL;DR in English: Consider alternative ways of living to keep your deaf cat safe. Give your cat a playmate who is not deaf. Learn to communicate with your cat by using hand signals.

Apply a few drops of either onion or garlic juice to the acne scars with a Q-tip or a cotton ball. Allow the onion or garlic juice to dry. Then, if you don’t like the odor, rinse off with warm water.  Repeat four to five times a day.  You can also leave the onion or garlic juice on overnight. Onion and garlic juice can be irritating for some people. If the onion or garlic juice irritates your skin, use a different method. Both onion and garlic juice has anti-bacterial, antifungal, and healing properties and has been used to promote healing without scarring, particularly after surgery. Honey has also has been used for centuries to promote healing. Apply ½ teaspoon of honey to the acne scars with a Q-tip or a cotton ball. Allow the honey to stay on the wound for 20 to 30 minutes, covering it with a bandaid or gauze. Rinse off with warm water.  Repeat four to five times a day or leave on overnight. Medicinal honeys such as Manuka honey has been the most studied, but you can use an organic honey and get similar results. Mix three to four drops of calendula oil with a carrier oil, like almond, castor, olive, or mineral oil. Apply the calendula oil mixture to the scabs with a Q-tip or a cotton ball. Leave it on. Apply four to five times a day.  Calendula Oil has wound healing properties.  There are a number of calendula creams, lotions and ointments also available that you can use. Mix five mL of apple cider vinegar with 50 mL of water. Using a cotton ball, dab it over the scabs. Leave it on for 20 minutes. Rinse gently. Apple cider vinegar promotes new cell growth and has antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal properties.

TL;DR in English: Try onion or garlic juice. Use honey. Make a calendula oil mixture. Apply apple cider vinegar.

This is one of the most serious threats to an infant while in the crib. It's cause is largely still unknown.  Babies that were born premature and at low-birth-weight seem at higher risk for SIDS. Babies whose mothers didn't get medical care during the pregnancy, mothers who smoked, and situations where twins or multiple babies were born also posed greater risk for SIDS occurring Regarding cribs and sleeping, when babies sleep on their bellies or sides (and roll over onto their bellies), they may not breathe well and increase the risk of SIDS. There are no warning signs before hand at all.  Babies who die of SIDS seem healthy before being put to bed. SIDS victims show no signs of struggle, and are often found in the same position as when they were placed in the bed. SIDS is diagnosed usually when no other cause of death can be found.  Medical experts review the baby's and parents' medical histories Doctors will study the area where the baby died An autopsy is also performed. There is no sure way to prevent or test for SIDS. If the unfortunate should happen, consider joining a support group for grief counseling. Look for SIDS-specific support groups. Consult a psychologist. Talk with family, friends, and/or clergy.

TL;DR in English: Stay aware of Sudden Infant Death Syndrome or SIDS. Be aware that SIDS has no symptoms. Know the only diagnosis  of SIDS is possible after death. Get a support group for SIDS after an incident.

The best way to practice and prepare for hitting the beach is with another person nearby who knows more about surfing than you do, and can provide feedback and advice.  If you have a friend who surfs, ask for help. Friends don't usually charge and you can practice privacy of your own home rather than on the beach in front of others. Pay an instructor. This is the most reliable way to learn the basics of surfing in a clear, methodical way. For a fee, he or she will teach you all you need to know and give you pointers that will help you get out into the surf and having fun quickly. Knowing the basic rules of the surf will help you make sure that your first time out is fun and safe. Here are a few basic safety rules to keep in mind:  Respect the right of way. When there is more than one surfer paddling to catch a wave, the person who has paddled closest to the peak has the right of way for that wave. Don't "drop in" on others. Paddling to catch or dropping into a wave while someone is already riding closer to the peak is considered rude and potentially dangerous. Remember to scan the line of the wave for other surfers before you try to catch it. Very popular and busy beginner surfing locations don't usually have these strict rules and multiple people will often ride the same wave (sometimes referred to as a "party wave"). If two people are waiting on the same wave, whichever person catches it first and is closer to the peak has the right of way.

TL;DR in English:


Hit your opponent with your arm and shoulder. Wrap them up. Follow them through the back bump. Land on one hand and knee to protect both yourself and your opponent. Keep moving.

This is especially important for men. You do not necessarily need a wool suit jacket, but some form of structured jacket, in a traditional color like black or brown, is a good idea, even if you only end up carrying it. Black, gray, navy blue, and brown pants are the standard colors of choice. Khaki pants are common for men's business casual, but women can also pull them off for business casual, as well. Keep your khakis pressed and wrinkle-free. Dark colors, like black or dark brown, are the most traditional and best received. Light and dark colors are both acceptable, but avoid anything bold or flashy. Choose a top that flatters your figure without being skin tight or low enough in the front to be revealing. A solid color works best for casual fabrics, but a print in a rich hue can look appropriate on nicer fabrics like silk. Ties make you look more professional, and you may want to wear one if you intend to mingle and establish contacts for the future. If leaning toward a business casual style, however, ties are not necessary. Men can opt for a lace-up style or a more casual loafer, but either way, your shoes must be polished and in good condition. Closed-toe pumps or flats, are preferable.  Black and brown leather are ideal. This applies to both men and women. Black socks are the most common and most versatile color, but you should try to match the color of your socks to the color of your shoes or trousers in order to blend the two together. Avoid white or colored socks that might stand out. If so, wear a slip underneath. Avoid non-traditional jewelry, like lip piercings, and only wear subtle pieces that do not look flashy.

TL;DR in English: Bring a blazer or sports jacket. Wear dress pants if you want to leave a lasting impression. Consider khakis. Women may choose to wear slacks, khakis, or to try out a knee-length pencil skirt. Wear a button-down collared shirt or polo shirt. Women may consider a knit blouse, silk blouse, or close-weave sweater. Men - decide whether or not you want to wear a tie. Wear black or brown leather shoes. Women - wear flats or a low heel (no high heels). Match your socks to your trousers. Women, if you choose to wear a skirt or dress, check the fabric to see if it is clinging to you. Minimize your accessories.

Another way to hear through a wall is with a hole and plastic membrane, a method recently discovered by scientists in Japan and South Korea. First, drill a very small hole all the way through the wall. A power drill with a small, long bit will work best to do this.   Don’t expect to hear too much through the hole alone. In fact, a plain hole in a wall seriously hinders sound transmission. Try to pick a time when your neighbor is out to drill through the wall. Otherwise, they may well notice the sound or debris from the drilling. This is what should make the method work really well. You see, studies show that when you cover the hole with a thin membrane on one side the transmission becomes almost as if there is no wall, because the membrane equalizes the pressure on both sides of the hole and funnels sound through. Try using a common household item, namely plastic wrap. In fact, the scientists who conducted the initial study used plastic wrap themselves. Once you have your hole and plastic wrap in place, listen away! If executed properly, you should be able to hear what is happening in the opposite room quite clearly.  For even better results, try this method in conjunction with the first. Put a glass over the top of the hole and plastic membrane. Be aware that drilling a hole in the wall has very clear disadvantages, especially as regards secrecy. Your neighbor might hear the drilling; she might see the hole; or she might notice the drill debris on the floor and become suspicious. Use with care!

TL;DR in English: Drill a tiny hole. Cover the hole with a thin membrane. Listen away.

Beyond incorporating vitamin-rich foods to your diet, you can boost your levels of Vitamins A, C, D, or E through supplements. Beta-carotene supplements are available without a prescription, but are typically used to treat skin conditions.  Work beta-carotene-rich foods into your diet before turning to supplements. Consult your doctor to see which, if any, supplements are right for you. Speak with your doctor about this process if you’re looking to treat vitiligo, eczema, psoriasis, or another condition. You may be prescribed a 10 mg (0.00035 oz) melanin tablet to take orally. This is followed by a photochemotherapy treatment involving exposure to UV light. Alternatively, the tablet can be dissolved in a bath and taken topically. The synthetic peptide hormone Melanotan II will speed up the body’s production of melanin. This results in a darker skin tone without any UV exposure. In consultation with your doctor, acquire the product legally with a prescription. You can use a sterile 27 gauge 1 mL (0.034  fl oz) needle to inject a dose (0.025 mg (8.8×10−7 oz) of the hormone per 1 kg (2.2 lb) of body weight) into your abdominal folds. Repeat this process on a weekly basis until you reach your desired skin tone.  Note that Melanotan-II is not FDA approved. It is typically sold online. However, sale and consumption are banned in the U.S., Europe, and Australia.  Dermatologists warn against taking these injections due to the unknown long-term effects.  Melanotan II was designed as an erectile dysfunction treatment. Be aware of the hormone’s ED-related effects.

TL;DR in English: Take vitamin supplements to combat vitamin deficiencies. Consider melanin pills and PUVA therapy to treat serious skin conditions. Take synthetic melanin hormone injections to darken your skin.

Choose a stickpin for a classic look that’s secure and easy to wear. These pins have a pinhead with a design, a thin needle, and a collar that slides up and down the needle to secure it. This is the most common lapel pin, so wearing it ensures a timeless look. Choose a pin with a magnetic clasp to keep from putting a small hole in a cherished suit. These closures use 2 magnetic clasps to hold your pin in place through your lapel fabric. Unfortunately, these tend to be less secure than other types of pins. Choose a screw-and-nut pin if you’ll be playing lawn games at a wedding or moving around a lot. These pins use threaded screws to hold the ends of the pin in place. They are considered the most secure clasp out of all the lapel pins. Choose a butterfly clasp if you’ll be wearing a novelty pin. These pins have a sharp needle on one side and a cupped closure that grasps the needle on the other. Typically these pins are small and best suited to school emblems, flags, or other novelty shapes.

TL;DR in English: Try a stickpin if you’re starting out with lapel pins. Use a magnetic-clasp pin to protect a nice suit. Use a screw-and-nut pin if you’re going to be active. Experiment with butterfly-clasp pins to show off your cheeky side.

Hit your opponent in the middle of their torso with your shoulder and bicep. You should connect with the bottom portion of their ribcage with your neck and head underneath your opponent’s arm. Try to hit your opponent across their entire body to spread out the impact and minimize how much it actually hurts.   Make sure your head and neck do not make contact with your opponent. You can suffer serious and permanent injury if you fail to do this. No matter how many times you successfully execute a spear, this is something you need to think about every time. Pros have had their careers ended by failing to do this.   Don’t hit them in the stomach. This will hurt the defender a lot and cause them to flip over forwards. If you think you’re going in too low, bail out by stopping or rolling your body away from your opponent. You have to grasp your opponent’s torso with your arm in order to properly perform a spear. You won’t maintain contact if you don’t and it will look more look a shoulder tackle than a spear. You’ll probably be able to reach your arm around just enough to hold onto a little bit of their back. Don’t try to grab as much of them as possible though, or you might trap your arm underneath your opponent when they land. They’ll begin to fall backwards as soon as you make contact. Keep holding onto them and follow them down to the mat throughout the entirety of their fall. This will make it look like you are driving them down into the mat, even if you’re really just following them as they fall down. You don’t want to land on top of your opponent or hit the ground next to them at full force. About halfway through the fall, extend one of your knees and your outside arm to catch your weight. You may find you prefer to land on one knee, but it will probably be easiest to land on the leg opposite of the one you last took a step with.  It might look kind of awkward at first, but many pros still land on one hand and knee when they hit their opponent with a spear. They just know how to get out of quickly so it...
