Be subtle. Get her to respond. Be direct.

Select a contour color and/or matte bronzer that is one or two shades deeper than your skin tone. For the highlighter, choose a color that is slightly lighter than your natural complexion.  Cream and powder are both acceptable choices for contouring your face. Cream provides a glossier texture on your face, while powder provides a matte look. A makeup blending brush is recommended for applying the makeup. Effective brushing ensures proper blending and avoids streaky makeup. Alter your hairstyle to better accentuate your cheeks, or to give your face an overall thinner appearance. Pulling your hair back into a ponytail, parting your hair on the side instead of the middle and adding volume to the crown of your head all help your face appear thinner.

TL;DR in English: Purchase materials. Change your hairstyle (Optional).

You cannot have success if you do not know what it means for you. Everyone views success differently.  True success comes from achieving what will make you happiest in life. Once you have identified this, you can set goals that are meaningful and important to you.  Try writing down your definition of success. Is it earning a certain income, living in a certain area, or supporting a happy family? Would success allow you to travel, save for retirement, or maintain a healthy social life? If you’re struggling, consider what makes you happiest in life. Is it spending time with your family, traveling, pursuing a hobby, or something else? What would you do if money was not a concern? Next, identify what you need in life to achieve that happiness. Identify the things you love to do, the things that give you satisfaction. Once you identify what you love to do, use this information to find the purpose of your life or the objective of your life.  Finding what you love to do will give you motivation along the way. It's much, much easier to persistently chip away at your goal if your goal is something you enjoy doing. Consider where you want to be in 5, 10, and 20 years. What can you do that will help you achieve that dream? If you’re confused about what your goal or purpose might be, try meeting with a career coach or visiting a good psychologist. Your goals should be quantifiable. For example, instead of setting a goal to be better at your job, create benchmarks such as "My goal is to increase my productivity by 30% and only be late for work five times per year, at the most." Focus on streamlining your idea and establish what you need to do to reach that goal. If you have the vision to attack your goal piece by piece, it's easier and less daunting to execute.  For example, does the goal of starting a technology company seem impossibly unattainable? Break it down into smaller goals. Smaller goals could include writing a business plan, finding investors, getting a loan, or coming up with product ideas. Make sure that your...

TL;DR in English: Define what success means to you. Identify your ultimate purpose or goal. Break your goal into small steps. Set a timeline for when you want to achieve your objective. Identify what resources you need to achieve your objectives.

Most people lose weight very quickly in the first several weeks of a new regimen. While some of this weight is actual body mass, a lot of it is excess water. Once your body has rid itself of this excess water, it is normal for the rate of weight loss to slow down significantly.  Track your progress and ask yourself: has my weight loss really stopped, or just slowed? Experts agree that an ideal rate for safe, lasting weight loss is one to two pounds per week, so perhaps your plateau isn't a plateau after all! Maybe you were very diligent about counting calories at the beginning, or maybe you were able to lose weight initially without monitoring your food intake that closely. In either case, you may be consuming more calories that you realize, and carefully tracking your intake using a food diary or one of the many free calorie counter websites and apps can help you identify exactly how much you are eating and when.  Once you have a good handle on what you are consuming, you can start to look for problem areas and make adjustments If you have been very active, it's also possible you haven't  been eating enough calories. If you are working out, your body will require more food. If you restrict yourself thinking that you will lose weight faster, you will actually cause your body to hold on to the weight you currently hold. As your body gets smaller, it will burn fewer calories and you will need to eat less and less to maintain the calorie deficit that leads to weight loss. If you have not done so lately, enter your weight and activity level into a calorie counter to get an up-to-date number for the number of calories you need.  Most experts recommend a calorie deficit of 500 calories a day to achieve gradual, lasting weight loss.  If the calculator tells you that you require 2200 calories per day, you should try to consume around 1700 calories per day to lose a pound per week. Have you been exercising consistently? Do you do the same kind of workout every day? Are you doing any kind of resistance training?...

TL;DR in English: Understand how weight loss usually progresses. Keep track of your caloric intake. Reevaluate your caloric needs. Think about your exercise routine. Look at other factors besides the scale. See your doctor for a check-up.

By lowering the difference in temperatures between the outside of the goggles and your face, you might be able to decrease the amount of fog that forms on the lenses. Splash a little bit of cold water over your face 4 or 5 times immediately before putting your goggles on to cool your face down. While this might work on the fly, this isn't a great long-term fix. Consider investing in different goggles if the problem persists. Just before putting on your goggles, spit lightly into each lens. Use one finger to lightly spread the saliva around the lenses until both are covered, building up a small film that can reduce fog. While this isn’t a long-lasting method for preventing fog in your goggles, it is one of the most effective methods that won’t cost you a cent. Use this technique if you need to stop your goggles from fogging up for a short period of time. Put a small drop of a liquid soap on your finger and rub it around the lenses of your swimming or work goggles. Dip the goggles in some clean, non-chlorinated water and wash the soap away. A tiny amount of soap remaining on the inside of your goggles will stop fog from forming on the plastic.  Make sure you wash the excess soap out of the goggles before putting them on, so as to avoid getting soap in your eyes. Using baby shampoo or something similar may also help, as it will hurt less if you get it in your eyes. Instead of soap, you can also use a tiny amount of shaving cream smeared thinly over each lens. Again, make sure you wash it off to avoid getting any minty gel in your eyes as you swim. Cut a small chunk from a potato to expose some of the flesh. Rub this over the lenses of your goggles to build up a thin protective layer that will work to repel water and moisture from sticking. Wash the lenses in clean water to remove any visible residue. While this may work on plastic lenses, it’s generally most effective when used on goggles with lenses made from glass. Put a small amount of toothpaste on the inside of your lenses. With a clean, damp toothbrush,...

TL;DR in English: Splash cool water on your face to slow down condensation. Rub a small amount of saliva on the inside of the goggles for a cheap solution. Try using baby shampoo or another liquid soap to stop condensation. Rub a cut potato over your lenses to repel water. Clean your goggles with toothpaste and a toothbrush.

Don't be sneaky or manipulative, just casually drop hints here or there.  Your mom may notice, or she may just start to get an idea of what age you and your peers are reaching.  A subtle hint might be something like, “My friend [insert name] has started shaving her legs.” Don't feel too awkward.  It shouldn't be a big deal. Casually mention what is going on with yourself or other girls at your school. Your mom may be picking up on your hints, but choosing not to respond.  Getting her to respond is the best way to start a conversation.  Use questions that require an answer.  For example, “Some of my friends have started shaving their legs.  When did you start shaving your legs, mom?”   Asking direct questions like, “When do you think it is a good age to start shaving your legs?” will give you a sense of what your mother thinks. Just make sure to ease into it. If you think that your mother will say yes, and if she hasn't acted strangely to your other hints, try hinting more directly.  The most direct way is to ask for razors when you are at the store. You can say, “I think that it's time for me to start shaving my legs. I have the most hair on my legs out of any of the girls in my grade/class.”

TL;DR in English:


Check the zoning restrictions in your area for the maximum structure height. Opt for a turbine if the average wind speed is 14 mph (23 km/h) or more. Calculate the minimum diameter for the turbine blades to power your home. Place the turbine on a tower that’s 30 feet (9.1 m) taller than other structures. Hire an electrician to connect the turbine to your home’s power system.

Don’t use a bronzer that is more than one skin tone darker than your own. Check carefully when buying it at the store and test out a few on your face to see which color will work best for you. Avoid bronzers with orange tints -- these typically do not look good on pale skin. Go for bronzers that lean toward brown. Different products work well for oily, combination, and dry skins. Using testers, check at the store which products feel and spread best on your skin. Bronzers are supposed to add a healthy-looking shine to your skin, and can be very useful for making pale skin appear slightly darker. (They are not designed to make your skin look bronze, despite their name.) After getting some on the brush, tap off any excess before applying. Focus on your temples and cheekbones. Use only a little on your nose and chin, and blend a little on your neck.

TL;DR in English: Choose your bronzer or blush color. Select a bronzer that works for your skin type. Apply bronzer with a big brush.

When he is fully dried off, use your double-sided stainless steel comb to comb through his coat and remove any tangles. Once his coat is all smoothed out, you can use your spray conditioner to put a nice finishing touch on his coat. Keeping your puppy's ears clean is just as important as keeping the rest of him clean. Following the instructions on the ear cleaner bottle, pour the recommended amount of ear cleaner into your puppy's ears, one at a time, and gently massage his ears. Use a clean cotton ball to clear out any obvious debris. If you are comfortable doing so, use a small pair of tweezers to remove hair from your puppy's ear canal. If you are unsure of how to do this, your veterinarian or local pet groomer can do this for you. . Using your nail clippers, trim your puppy's nails down to just above the quick. The quick is the blood vessel that runs halfway through your puppy's nail. It is easy to identify if your puppy has light-colored or transparent nails.  The quick has many nerve endings. If you trim past the quick, not only will the nail start to bleed slightly, but your puppy will experience some pain. If your puppy has light-colored or transparent nails, you may be able to see the quick from the side of your puppy's nail. If this is the case, trim the nail until you see that you are just above the quick. If your puppy has dark-colored nails, trim a very small amount at a time and look at the cut edge of the nail. Stop trimming when you begin to see a gray or pink oval in the cut edge of the nail—this oval is the quick.  If you trim the past the quick and the nail starts to bleed, dab a small amount of styptic powder onto the nail to stop the bleeding. The bleeding will stop immediately after you apply the styptic powder. If you are not comfortable with trimming your puppy's nails, your veterinarian or local pet groomer can perform this task.

TL;DR in English: Comb your puppy's coat. Clean your puppy's ears. Trim your puppy's nails

When you decide to sue someone for diminishing your religious freedoms, the first important decision you will have to make is whether you will file your lawsuit in state or federal court. Depending on the circumstances, you may be able to choose or you may be required to file in one or the other. State courts are usually courts of general jurisdiction and can hear any case brought in front of them unless they are specifically barred from doing so. On the other hand, if you want to file your lawsuit in federal court you will have to meet one of two jurisdictional tests.  First, you can file in federal court if you are suing under a federal law, which includes the U.S. Constitution (i.e., federal question jurisdiction). For example, if you are suing an employer for employment discrimination, you might decide to sue under the federal law prohibiting those actions. Second, you can file in federal court if you have diversity of citizenship. Here, you and the defendant must be citizens of different states and the amount in controversy must exceed $75,000.  If you can choose between the two, you should most likely choose to file in federal court. If you are suing based on a constitutional claim, or a federal law claim, the federal courts are much better equipped to handle your case. A lawsuit is started when a complaint is filed with the court. A complaint is a legal document that tells the judge and the defendant why you are suing someone, how the defendant violated the law, how you were injured, and what you want the court to do about it. Your complaint will include at least the following:  The case caption, which includes the court where you are filing your complaint and the parties to the suit. The jurisdictional basis, which tells the court why they can hear the case. The nature of your suit and the cause of action (i.e., what law you are filing under and how you have been harmed). Whether you want a jury. Your request for relief, which is the dollar amount you are asking the defendant for. The summons is a...

TL;DR in English: Decide where to sue. Draft a complaint. Fill out a summons form. File your lawsuit. Serve the other party. File the return of service forms. Await an answer.

Turbulence during a flight is caused by uneven air distribution--it doesn’t mean the plane is going to crash! Learning about what causes turbulence and how it might affect your plane can help you enjoy the flight and handle any turbulence calmly. Research turbulence online or talk to airport staff to ease your mind. If you want to research online, search for turbulence only and avoid articles about plane crashes--this won’t help calm you down! If turbulence makes you sick or very anxious, it’s totally fine to talk to your doctor about medication that can help you! Many doctors offer short-term prescriptions especially for patients who are about to board a flight. You can even buy anti-nausea medication over the counter. The front of the plane is somewhat less likely to be affected by turbulence, so choose a seat as close to the front as you can. If you prefer a window or aisle seat, choose that too. The more comfortable you are, the less you’ll be bothered by turbulence. Feeling calm and relaxed will help you handle turbulence more effectively, and it’s easier to calm down if you aren’t rushed and stressed. Get to the airport as early as you can to have some time to relax before your flight. Bring along a favorite book or movie to watch to get you in a calmer state of mind before boarding. The best way to avoid injury during turbulence is to stay in your seat with your seatbelt buckled. Make sure you go to the bathroom before you board, and if you need to get up to speak to anyone on the plane, do so before takeoff.

TL;DR in English: Learn about the causes of turbulence. Talk to your doctor about anti-anxiety or nausea medication. Choose a comfortable seat towards the front of the plane. Get to the airport early. Use the bathroom before your flight.

Since wind systems are tall, you may not be able to install the system in a residential area depending on your zoning requirements. Check with local building inspectors or your city’s homeowner’s association to see if you’re eligible for building a turbine. If zoning isn’t an issue, then you can build a turbine on your property. Many zoning ordinances have a height limit of about 35 feet (11 m), and many wind systems need to be 30 feet (9.1 m) higher than the tallest structure within 500 feet (150 m). Look online for wind speed maps or airport wind speed data to see what the average wind speed is in your area. If the average wind speeds are around 14 miles per hour (23 km/h), then a turbine might be an efficient way to generate electricity to power your home. If the wind speed is slower, then you may not get the turbine’s full effectiveness.  Wind speeds increase the higher above ground you are. Many airports measure their wind speed from about 30 feet (9.1 m) above ground, which is similar to the height of a residential turbine. Hire a professional who installs wind turbines to check the efficiency and wind speed of your property for you if you have trouble determining it yourself. Check with your electric company to find out how many kilowatt-hours your home used in the past year. Use the formula AEO = (0.01328)D2V3, where AEO is your annual energy output in kilowatt-hours per year, D is the diameter of the rotor in feet, and V is the annual average wind speed in miles per hour. Solve the formula for D and buy a turbine system with the correct size rotors.  For example, if you use 11,000 kilowatt-hours of electricity per year and the average annual wind speed is 20 miles per hour, your formula would be 11,000 = (0.01328)D2(15)3. If you solve for D, the diameter you need for your system is about 10 feet (3.0 m). Once you know what size turbine you need, purchase one from a reputable supplier. This company may also be able to supply you with other crucial parts (like the tower) and/or complete the...

Choose your method wisely. Be prepared for the time and expense. Build your hair’s health before you go gray. Purchase a 10 to 20-volume cream developer. Buy a hair toner to help eliminate brassiness after bleaching. Buy a gray hair dye and the other necessary tools for home use.

To do your best, you’ll want to concentrate on the moment. But, you can also find small ways to take mental breaks as well. While you are running, pay attention to the environment around you. Try to focus on the spectators on the sidelines of your marathon. Or, perhaps keep your focus on the trees or greenery. This will take your mind off your discomfort. If you are not in pain due to an acute injury, then you can generally compartmentalize the negative sensations connected with pain, thus minimizing its power over you. Don’t give pain more power than it should have. If you experience discomfort, start to think about all of the ways that pain can be good.  For example, muscles are often sore or in pain before they regenerate even stronger. Just be aware of your body and know how to differentiate “true” pain, such as shin splits, from “false” pain, such as muscle soreness. If you know that you are suffering from an injury, such as shin splits, then it is a good idea to modify your training regimen. You may need to run for shorter periods of time or distances. Try to develop a plan to build back up to your desired goals, but realize that you will need to be realistic about what your body can, and can’t, do when injured. There are some moments when pain and discomfort must be taken seriously. If you feel a sharp pain in your shin or hips, it is best to slow or stop running. If you start to experience tightness in your chest or severe stomach pains, stop and seek out help as well. When in doubt, trust your instincts and err on the side of caution. If you suspect that you are injured or if you are experiencing noticeable pain when running, it may be a good idea to talk with your physician. Explain your running routine and ask them for advice regarding potential modifications. View your visit as an opportunity to learn more about your body in order to maximize its potential.

TL;DR in English: Find a focal point outside of yourself. Disconnect pain from injury. Be careful when injured. Respond quickly to serious physical warning signs. Consult with a doctor.

Any kind of cheese will work, but the smellier, the better. Catfish are attracted to strong, intense smells. Use a large spoon to stir the chicken liver into the cheese. You can use any flavor of wet dog food. Once the dog food and garlic powder are in the pot, stir the mixture thoroughly. Pour the bait from the pot into a blender and blend it thoroughly. Blending the mixture will make it easier to turn into a dough later on. Stop adding flour once the mixture develops a dough-like consistency. Don’t add too much flour or you could make the bait too thick. Use your hands to form the balls so they’re small enough to fit on a fishing hook. They should be about the size of a golf ball. Place the cheesy dough balls in a sealable plastic bag or container and stick them in the fridge or freezer. When you’re ready to use your bait, all you need to do is attach one of the dough balls to a fishing hook and you’re ready to go! Your bait can stay in storage for as long as you want, but the smell may become overwhelming after a while. If the bait becomes dry or crumbly, you'll need to throw it away and make a new batch.

TL;DR in English: Melt 1 pound (0.45 kg) of cheese in a large pot. Chop up 8 ounces (230 g) of chicken liver and add it to the melted cheese. Add a can of wet dog food and 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of garlic powder. Blend all the ingredients together. Pour the mixture into a bowl and gradually add flour to thicken it. Separate the dough into small balls. Store your bait in the fridge or freezer until you’re ready to use it.

Certain liquids can be cooked down to then be combined with salt like wet condiments. Wines and heavy liquors are especially good for this purpose due to their sugar content and high smoke point. Grab a bottle of your favorite pinot noir or barrel-aged whiskey and get cooking.  Browse a few recipes to see which liquids can be used to make reductions and which can’t. Try a dash of maple-bourbon salt on a sirloin steak or homemade caramels. Pour 2-3 cups of your chosen liquid into a saucepan. Turn on the stove top to a medium-high temperature and heat the liquid until it just begins to bubble. From there, reduce the heat and let it continue simmering. The liquid will most likely need to simmer for between 15-20 minutes, but exact times may vary. Keep an eye on it as it cooks down. The process of boiling and simmering the liquid will cook the moisture out of it, causing it to thicken into a condensed syrup. Stir the reduction continuously to keep air moving through it and prevent it from burning or sticking to the saucepan. When it’s thick enough to coat the outside of your spoon or ladle, it’s ready to be added to the salt.  You should be left with 1–2 tablespoons (14.8–29.6 ml) of syrup after the liquid is fully reduced.  Remove the reduction from the heat as soon as it’s finished. It can burn very easily if it continues being exposed to heat after it has thickened. Drain the contents of the saucepan onto a nonstick baking sheet. Pour in 1-1 ½ cups of salt and fold the salt into the syrup by hand. Spread the salt mixture thin and place the baking sheet in the oven for about 2 hours at 170 °F (76.7 °C). The dried salt can then be broken up and sifted into a different container. That’s all it takes!  Shake or stir the salt periodically to keep it separated. You can produce roughly 1 cup of salt per batch this way.

TL;DR in English: Select a flavored liquid for your salt. Bring the liquid to a boil. Heat the liquid until it forms a reduction. Add the salt and dry the mixture.

Cleaning businesses generally target one of two markets: Either commercial or consumer. Commercial services target businesses. Consumer-based services target individual residences. You should decide which market you will focus on.  Cleaning services with consumer target markets usually involve window cleaners or maids who clean personal homes. Cleaning services with commercial target markets usually involve janitorial services. They sometimes offer more services than maid services, such as carpet cleaning.    Some cleaning businesses market to a niche clientele within a target market. You should carefully define what kind of customers you will seek. For example, commercial cleaning services need to decide whether they are serving smaller businesses or huge companies. Depending on your budget, it might be a good idea to start small so you can do the cleaning yourself and grow to larger projects as you can afford to add more staff. You need to pick whether you want to run your cleaning business independently or as part of a franchise. There are advantages and disadvantages to choosing either route.  Franchises will offer you some marketing support. They will provide guidance about starting the business, so they can be helpful on the front end if you’ve never run a business before. They will give you guidelines and support so you don’t have to do as much research about the market. You will already have a proven brand. Over time, though, you will invest more money in a franchise. If you are independent, you can choose your own services, name, and formula. You will need to get a state business license if your state requires one. You also might need other permits depending on the community where your business is located.   Contact the state business office in the state where your company would be headquartered to determine which state permits or licenses are needed.   You should also contact the business office at your local city, village, or town hall to ask which permits are needed and to make sure you are...

TL;DR in English: Determine your target market. Decide whether to franchise. Get proper licenses and permits. Follow all IRS rules. Determine your business name. Choose whether to run your business out of your home.

Consider whether to use an at-home dye kit or professional dyes, or go to the salon. Carefully consider the costs, processes, and risks involved in each method.  For the salon method, costs and products will vary. Check out websites of local salons or call them for pricing. If possible, talk to a stylist in person. Use the box kit method with caution. Read online reviews to help you choose a box kit that works best on black hair. A popular box kit is L’Oréal Paris Preference Les Blondissimes LB01: Extra Light Ash Blonde. It won’t dye your hair platinum, but may get you down to an ashy blonde in one go.  Use professional-quality products, if possible. Some professional companies require a cosmetology license in order to make a purchase, so keep that in mind. Regardless of which method you choose, it will likely take multiple bleachings to achieve the gray tone that you want. Take the time and expense (i.e. multiple salon visits, multiple purchases of dye kits or professional products) into consideration before you decide. In the weeks or months leading up to the bleaching, avoid using harsh hair products and heat styling tools on your hair. If your hair feels damaged, do weekly deep-conditioning masks until it feels healthy enough to be bleached.  Use good-quality shampoos and conditioners to moisturize your hair without adding buildup or stripping your hair of its natural oils. Look for low pH, oils (argan, avocado, olive), glycerin, glyceryl stearate, propylene glycol, sodium lactate, sodium PCA, and alcohols that start with “c” or “s.”  Avoid strongly fragranced products, alcohols that begin with “prop,” sulfates, and any products that claim to add volume. Cream developer reacts with the powder to bleach your hair. It comes in different volumes ranging from 10 (weakest) to 40 (strongest). The higher the volume, the quicker it will turn your hair blonde, but also the more damaging it will be. Most stylists recommend using 10-volume or 20-volume. A 20-volume developer is your safest bet for effectiveness and...

Brushing and flossing each day as well as after meals may promote the health of your oral cavity. A clean environment may prevent cavities, infections, and stains. Brush and floss after meals if you are able. If you have food or other debris lingering in your teeth, it can promote infection and decay. Chewing a piece of gum may help minimize this risk if you don't have a toothbrush available. Foods and drinks containing sugar or acid can contribute to oral decay, and watching your intake can help maintain your oral health. Cleaning your teeth after consuming these items may minimize your risk of tooth decay and infection.  A healthy and well-balanced diet of lean protein, fruits and vegetables, and legumes can promote your overall well-being, including oral health. Raw fruits and vegetables are best. Raw fruits and vegetables stimulate your gums and your teeth providing good blood circulation which prevents decay, gum disease or even periodontitis. Also, stick to whole grain bread and avoid sugary foods to reduce the amount of acids. Some otherwise healthy foods are acidic. This includes citrus fruits and wine. Continue to enjoy these foods and beverages, but reduce how much you consume and consider brushing your teeth 30 minutes after you're done to prevent enamel loss. Some examples of sugary and acidic foods and beverages of which to steer clear are soft drinks, sweets, candies, and wine. Mouthwashes and toothpastes that have alcohol may damage your enamel and overall oral health. Use toothpastes or mouthwashes that have no alcohol to minimize your risk for these problems. If you clench and grind your teeth, you may damage your teeth and mouth. If you're a tooth-grinder, talk to your dentist about wearing a mouth guard.  Grinding can cause tooth sensitivity and damage including chips and cracks.  Biting your nails, opening bottles or keeping objects between your teeth are also bad habits. Avoid these habits as much as possible so that you don't damage your teeth. Schedule regular checkups with your dentist...

TL;DR in English: Brush and floss twice daily. Avoid sugary and acidic foods and beverages. Use alcohol-free mouthwashes and toothpastes. Avoid grinding your teeth. Visit your dentist's office regularly.

A quick search of the tire’s make and model should turn up everything potential buyers will want to know. You can also scan each of your tires for its tire identification number, which will reveal its age, size, and the place it was manufactured.  Tire identification numbers can be found along the sidewall of the tire next to the rim. They most often begin with the letters “DOT,” followed by a series of other numbers and letters.  Doing your homework will also help you avoid listing tires that have been recalled for safety concerns. Get a few shots of the tires from multiple angles, including top-down and side views and a closeup of the tread. Detailed images will give bidders a better idea of what kind of shape the tires are in. Don’t forget to show any cracks, dings, or worn spots, as well.  Use a powerful camera, like a current generation smartphone or photography camera, to photograph your tire collection. Otherwise, your shots may come out blurry or pixelated.  The more pictures you upload, the more secure the buyer will feel with their purchase. The tires sold through most e-commerce website typically fall under one of several categories—eBay, for instance, groups listings by New, Retread, Used, and Damaged. In order for your listing to be as accurate as possible, you'll first need to examine the tires closely and thoroughly to determine the kind of shape they're in.  New tires are still in the condition they were in when they left the factory, and have seen no use. Retread tires are those that have had the tread removed and replaced professionally. These tend to be significantly cheaper than brand new tires. Used tires have seen some mileage, but not enough to cause significant wear and tear. In order to be accepted, they must have at least 5⁄32 inch (0.40 cm) of the original tread remaining. Damaged tires are those that exhibit small holes, cracks, patches, and other imperfections. These are usually not functional, and may require repairs before they can be used. Even the most severely worn tires must...

TL;DR in English: Research the tires you’re selling before you list them. Take clear, high-quality pictures of your tires. Evaluate the condition of your tires. Provide a detailed item description. Sell your tires for a competitive price. Factor in the cost of shipping.

The best speeches are those that engage the audience with an interesting, relevant topic. Preparation will depend, to some extent, on whether your child has been assigned a specific topic or gets to choose one.  If your child has been assigned a specific topic already, ask what he or she knows about that subject. If this knowledge is lacking, point your child toward books, articles, websites, or other sources of information. Otherwise, simply talk about how your child might elaborate on the topic at hand. If your child gets to select the subject, brainstorm together about possible topics. Decide on something appropriate to the assignment and interesting to your child. Your child should pitch his or her speech to the particular audience: are they students, adults, or both? The content and tone of the speech should reflect the audience and the occasion. Your child’s assignment may vary, but in general, a speech should have an introduction, a developed and persuasive middle, and a conclusion. Your child should include both facts and opinions. After you’ve chosen a theme, your child should write a rough draft of the speech. You can then check the draft, point out any major problems, and make suggestions for improvement. Your child should revise his or her speech, using your suggestions for guidance. Teach your child how important this step is: the best writers and the best public speakers all draft, revise, and revise again. Your child’s speech will be clearer and more effective with a few pictures, diagrams, or slides. Remind your child to select these visual aids carefully, choosing relevant images that will interest the audience. You can also point out, if your child is nervous, that good visual aids will take the audience members’ eyes off the child. They will be looking at the images instead.

Standing up for too long can make varicose veins worse, as your body is having to work against gravity to get blood back to your heart. Similarly, if you sit too long, your blood has a chance to pool in your legs, leading to varicose veins. Make sure you move around from time to time to get your blood pumping.  When you do sit, put your feet up. When you elevate your feet, your veins don't have to work as hard to get blood back to your heart because they aren't working against gravity. When you can, try to get your feet above your heart when you're sitting.  Also, don't cross your legs when you sit down. Doing cardiovascular exercise gets the blood moving through your body. In turn, that can help reduce varicose veins. Walking, running, bicycling, and swimming are all great options.  Strength training is also beneficial. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day 5 days a week. Elevate your legs when you're resting between exercises. if needed. Being overweight can make varicose veins worse, but losing weight can relieve some of that pressure. Eat well, exercise, and drink plenty of water to lose weight in a healthy manner. Opt for lean proteins and dairy, and get more fruits, veggies, and whole grains in your diet. Try keeping a food journal to check up on how much you're eating. Fiber is good for veins, so try foods like whole grains and beans. Also, the bioflavonoids in things like dark, leafy greens, onions, garlic, and dark berries help with vein health. These supplements support good vein health. Rutin is a bioflavonoid, and it can be found in most health food stores. Some people have good luck with herbal supplements helping varicose veins. For instance, horse chestnut, butcher's broom, grape (leaves, seed, fruit, and sap), and sweet clover may provide relief. However, these supplements can interfere with other medications, so it's a good idea to talk to your doctor before starting one.

TL;DR in English: Move around instead of sitting or standing still for long stretches. Exercise to get your blood pumping. Lose weight Eat your way to better veins. Consider taking vitamin C, vitamin E, zinc, and rutin. Talk to your doctor about an herbal supplement.

Savings bonds are designed for two purposes: to give Americans an easy, cheap, and reliable way to build wealth and to service the government's financing needs. They can be purchased in denominations as low as $25 and can be held for up to 30 years. Upon maturity, they provide a reliable payout of their face value. Savings bonds are considered to be one of the safest investments.  Earnings from savings bonds are not subject to state and local taxes.  Bonds purchased after 1989 may qualify for an education tax exclusion. In this case, earnings on qualifying bonds used for your child's education are tax-free. However, this is subject to restrictions and qualification. See the Treasury Direct website for details. The two types, or series, of savings bonds are mostly similar, but differ in a few key ways. EE Bonds are no longer sold as paper bonds and earn interest at a fixed rate (since 2005). I Bonds are only available for purchase as paper bonds with your IRS tax refund. Otherwise they must be purchased electronically on the Treasury Direct website. They earn a "composite" interest rate that fluctuates with inflation. Both bonds:  Are purchased at face value. A $100 bond costs $100. Are available in non-standard denominations to the penny. For example, you can buy a $28.73 savings bond. Limit buyers to $10,000 in savings bond purchases each year. Can be redeemed after a year. Carry a penalty if redeemed in under five years — three months of interest will be withheld. Earn interest monthly. Electronic savings bonds are only available through Treasurydirect.gov. They can be purchased by inputting your bank account information and personal information in the appropriate fields. You can buy one bond, several bonds at once, or schedule future purchases. This method requires no paperwork. Paper I Bonds can be purchased using your tax refund. Investments typically display a positive relationship between returns and risk. That is, low-risk investments have low returns and high-risk investments have higher returns....

If you are living alone this is easiest. Just don't buy it! Don't carry spare cash for snacking when out, and don't even look at the section in the supermarket. This makes it so much easier. If you live with other people, just don't be around them when they start to eat tempting food. Easy! When you crave something that is out on the counter or near by, just put in away in the cabinet where you cannot see it. If you're trying to kick a habit, then there must be a reason. Use that reason to keep inspiring you to not give in. Do you feel better? Do you feel more energized? Are you losing weight? These good things will work as incentives to keep it up. You're more likely to add tempting unhealthy foods to the basket when you're hungry. You can even carry around alternatives to help if you get a craving. A low calorie or sugar free alternative is gum!  Not only does it come in many flavors, but it can keep you preoccupied for hours. An apple is also handy to munch on to keep you busy - even better! This will just make you less hungry, and gives you plenty of energy that you may rely on your food addiction for. The food you eat in the morning will most likely be burned off by the end of the day, so eat a nice breakfast so that you don't get as hungry later in the day.

TL;DR in English: Take yourself away from the food. Put it away. Think about all of the negatives involved. Be aware of the benefits. Do not shop when you're hungry. Eat alternatives. Drink lots of water. Eat a healthy breakfast every morning.

These could be signs of the infection or other problems, but they are a potential warning.  Increased occurrences of nausea and/or diarrhea could be symptoms of dwarf tapeworm infection. You may also experience abdominal pain along with the upset stomach. The severity of your symptoms could vary greatly. Duration of these symptoms could be from a few days to intermittently over years. This too can be a sign of the tapeworm infection or other problems.  As this is not as an immediate symptom as nausea or diarrhea, you may want to take a few days to make sure this is occurring. Weight loss is rarely an occurrence with dwarf tapeworm infection.  See if you are turning away even your favorite foods. There is a risk of vitamin deficiency and body chemistry imbalance with this, so consult your doctor if it persists. While you cannot feel the worm inside you, the subsequent infection can induce pain..  If the pain is intense, see a doctor immediately in case it is a symptom of something else. This pain could vary in intensity from and duration from immediately of a few days to on and off for years depending on the persistence of infection. If you can identify the pain as acute (sharp and intense) and/or chronic (frequent occurrence)--this may help your doctor's diagnosis.  The pain's location may not situate itself in any one location in the abdominal area. Similar to the other conditions, it could be a symptom of the tapeworm infection, or other problems. This could be a sign of localized infection and irritation and it is most common in young children.  The irritation could also vary in intensity and duration depending on the timeline of the infection. A rash or physical blemish is not typically associated with this irritation, though you may risk inflicting such harm if you scratch too much. This could be a sign of a more severe infection and this symptom is also seen in young children more often.  If you feel the headache in conjunction with the other symptoms, this too could be signs of other illness--but the...

For best results, use sidewalk chalk instead of chalkboard chalk. It is much more pigmented. The more chalk you use, the more paint you will have. Use two different colors to create a new color! Place the bag with the chalk inside of it on top of a hard surface, such as a wooden board or a sidewalk. Hit the chalk with a hammer several times until it turns fine and powdery.  Take this time to create more colors. Use one color of chalk per bag. If you are using a thin bag, such as a sandwich bag, place a paper towel under it, and another one on top of it. This will keep the bag from ripping. Make sure that the jar is big enough to hold at least 1 cup (240 milliliters) of water. If you smashed multiple bags of chalk to create more colors, use a separate jar for each color. Use If you one piece of chalk, use ½ (120 milliliters) of water. If you used two pieces of chalk, use 1 cup (240 milliliters) of water. Stir the paint well until the chalk dissolves. If you need to close the jar tightly and shake it to help mix the water and chalk.  If you smashed additional bags of chalk, you will need another ½ to 1 cup (120 to 240 milliliters) of water for each batch. You can thicken the paint by adding 1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) of white glue to it. Keep in mind that this will make the paint permanent. Apply the paint using a paintbrush. When you are done using the paint, close the jar tightly. If the paint starts to turn too thick, add some water to it to thin it out again. You should be able to dilute it 5 to 10 times before it becomes too thin to use.  The chalk may settle in the water. If that happens, stir it back up again. If you added glue to the chalk, use it on paper—unless you want it to be permanent!

TL;DR in English: Place 1 to 2 pieces of colored chalk inside a resealable plastic bag. Smash the chalk into a powder with a hammer. Pour the powder into a jar. Stir in ½ to 1 cup (120 to 240 milliliters) water into the powdered chalk. Use the paint on a sidewalk or driveway.

Dried figs can be eaten plain, just like raisins or other dried fruits. This is one of the simplest ways to enjoy the fruit as a snack. When using dried figs for recipes, you may find it beneficial to rehydrate them so that they become juicier and plumper.  You can soak dried figs in water or fruit juice overnight. A more thorough method of rehydrating figs is to simmer them for several minutes in water or fruit juice. When using either method, add just enough liquid to cover the layer of figs. Both dried and rehydrated figs can be used in baked good recipes.  Gravitate toward breads, cakes, muffins, and cookies over pies and tarts. Mix the dried figs into the batter of these flour-based baked goods before baking. Replace other dried fruits with dried figs. Instead of making oatmeal raisin cookies, make oatmeal fig cookies. Instead of adding dried tart cherries to a muffin batter, add dried figs. Another simple way to enjoy dried figs is to simply sprinkle a few over hot breakfast cereal. The figs will add a mildly sweet boost of flavor. For a light lunch, you could mix a handful of dried figs into a serving of cottage cheese or yogurt. These rich, tangy dairy products complement the taste of figs rather well.

TL;DR in English: Enjoy as is. Rehydrate the figs. Use in baked goods. Add to oatmeal or porridge. Stir some into cottage cheese or yogurt.

While everyone relaxes differently, find something that works for you. You may try simply visualizing a calming scene, releasing tension in your muscles, practicing breathing, or meditation. Try to work on a relaxation technique that can be done anywhere at anytime. This way, when you encounter your phobia, you can overcome your fear. Be as detailed as possible and include all types of experiences, from the mildly anxious to terrifying. This will help you tackle your fear at a variety of levels. For example, if you are afraid of heights, you might encounter them in the following situations: hiking on a mountain, flying in an air plane, and going up a sky scraper in an elevator.  After compiling the list, you may notice similar variables between certain types of fear. For example, you may find that you have a terrifying reaction to flying and riding in an elevator. You may realize that both involve small spaces. If you have multiple phobias, such as snakes, spiders, and clowns, choose one to start with. It is easier to tackle one phobia at a time. Order your list of situations by how anxious or fearful they make you. Start your list with the situations that only make you mildly anxious or tense. Place the scariest situations towards the end of your list. For example, if you are afraid of dogs, your list might start off with simply looking at a picture of a dog, and progress to seeing a dog outside your window, across the street, and end with petting a large dog off its leash. Your list may not be very long or it can be incredibly lengthy. What matters is that you have a guide to deal with your phobia. You should start by visualizing the least upsetting item. Practice relaxing until you feel your muscles lose their tension. Once you've done this for a minute, take a break and repeat the exercise a few more times. Once you have mastered an item, move on to the next one until you've reached your most feared situation. Some items might take a lot longer to master than others. For example, you might get over...

TL;DR in English: Enter the exercise feeling relaxed. Write down situations where you encounter your phobia. Rank your situations. Imagine the first item on your list. Gradually work through your list. Seek out your situations in reality. Continue to confront your fear. Reward yourself for a job well done.

Open the cabinets under your sink and find the knobs that control the water valves attached to your pipes. Turn the knobs so they’re perpendicular to the pipes to close them. If you have a garbage disposal or P-trap under your sink, unplug it or disconnect the power before moving on. Depending on your sink, you may have 1 or 2 water valves. After turning off the valves, lift or turn the handles to your existing faucet to clear out any water that may still be trapped in the pipes. Keep the faucet on so there isn’t a buildup of pressure in your valves. Your water lines are hoses connected together with hexagonal nuts. Use an adjustable wrench to unscrew the nuts from the hoses until you can start turning them in your fingers. Detach all the hoses from your current faucet. Place a bucket or towel underneath your valves in case any water still leaks out. A basin wrench is a long-handled tool that makes it easier to reach underneath your sink. Adjust the length of the wrench handle and place the jaws of the wrench around the nut underneath your faucet. Grab the nut from the left side and turn the wrench counterclockwise to loosen it completely. Basin wrenches can be purchased from your local hardware store. Once you remove the nuts from the water lines and the faucet, simply pull the faucet up and out of the hole in your sink. Use a multipurpose cleaner and an old washcloth to lift up any grime that may have developed around the old faucet. If you’re having trouble removing any grime, let the cleaner sit on it for 1 minute before trying to scrub it off again.

TL;DR in English: Close the water valves and unplug your garbage disposal underneath the sink. Turn on your existing faucet to relieve any water pressure. Loosen the nuts attached to the water lines. Use a basin wrench to remove the nuts from the faucet. Pull the faucet out of the sink and clean any grime or residue.

Draw attention to your waist by wearing belts that emphasize and nip in your middle. They can be wide, skinny, jeweled, braided -- whatever! Wear them over dresses, long tops and even winter coats to get an hourglass figure which gives the illusion of a smaller waist. A-line dresses are those which are tight at the hips, then flare out towards the hem, giving the illusion of a smaller waist. They are very flattering on almost every body shape, as they emphasize the waist, while skimming over any imperfections around the hips and thighs. Low-rise jeans can be very unflattering to anyone who carries even a little weight around their middle, as they create the dreaded "muffin top" effect. High waisted jeans are much more forgiving as they cover up any excess fat around the hips, and draw attention to the waist. Worn with a tucked-in shirt, these type of jeans can be very flattering indeed. Picking the right foundation garments can greatly reduce your waistline.  Try "shapewear". Most quality lingerie stores carry lines of undergarments that are designed to smooth and support your figure. Corsets. Worn under gowns as a figure enhancing item of lingerie in centuries gone by, the corset has gained renewed popularity recently for providing an effortlessly sexy silhouette, whether under other clothes or on its own. Steel-boned corsets (not as painful as they sound - promise!) do the best job of cinching in your waist, and can actually permanently reduce the size of your waist with prolonged wear!

There are a number of techniques that can help you cope with your anxiety. One is problem solving. When you are confronted with an anxiety-inducing problem, come up with a plan for solving it, and then implement that plan. Afterwards, consider how well the plan worked. Another skill that helps with anxiety is mindfulness. When you are feeling anxious, focus on the sensations associated with your anxiety instead of trying to push them away. This can help you become more accepting of your anxiety, rather than letting it overwhelm you. The purpose for this is twofold. First, you'll no longer be embarrassed by your secret fear. This will help you start to deal with the anxiety. Second, you'll be able to ask others for help, especially when you get stuck. Consider attending a self-help group for people facing similar fears. You might benefit from talking with and supporting others experiencing the same challenges you are. Sometimes, it is easier to face your fears knowing that you are not the only one. Your family and friends may not understand what you are going through, but the people in the self-help group may. The people in that group may also offer up advice on how they managed or overcame their phobias. Some of that advice might work for you as well. Different people have different learning methods. Some people learn better through experiences, while others must read and analyze the material. Some books might even focus on certain types of phobias. Some people might need additional help overcoming their phobias, especially if it that gets in the way of their daily lives. For example, an extreme fear of open spaces or talking to people, might prevent someone from going out to a store and buying food and other necessities. This can be especially helpful when you are trying to face your phobia. Consider using any of the following essential oil: bergamot, chamomile, jasmine, lavender, or ylang ylang. Here are some ways in which you can use essential oils:  Mix a few drops of essential oil into a carrier oil,...

TL;DR in English: Develop anxiety management skills. Talk to a friend, family member, or someone you trust about your phobia. Try joining a self-help group. Read a self-help book. Consider seeking help from a psychologist. Use essential oils to reduce stress, tension, and create a feeling of calm. Recite a mantra. Get a massage.

Environmental activists have to keep their minds sharp and encourage others to join them. Convincing knowledge and persuasive rhetoric are both critical to calling people to join in conservation efforts. Try to read environmental publications to keep up with relevant news, then share it with others. Post it to social media, your blog, or find other ways to tell people you know.  Reading about social relations, industrial infrastructure such as oil refineries, and alternatives to the present way of living are always helpful. Stay active with your efforts to increase the likelihood of other people reading what you post. paper and other goods in your home. Waste is one of the most pressing environmental issues. Every year countless amounts of used products go into landfills or end up in the environment. That doesn’t even include the energy sources used to make the items. Instead of putting everything in the trash, take your paper products, metal cans, glass, and other products to a recycling facility.  Many garbage removal services also offer recycling programs. Contact them for more information about how to participate. Another way to recycle is to buy products made from recycled materials. Also, get used products from secondhand stores instead of buying new. Farm animals take up a lot of resources and produce a lot of waste. This includes pesticides, hormones, and other nasty chemicals that get washed into lakes and rivers. You don’t have to eliminate these items from your diet, but try to substitute them on occasion for more fruits, vegetables, and grains.  Choose fruits and vegetables that aren’t treated with harmful pesticides. Some environmentalists choose to go vegetarian and stick to an organic diet. Learn about how you can care for the environment, and make an effort to do so. When you do eat meat and dairy, look for products without antibiotics or chemicals. Every environmentalist can tell you about the impact of fossil fuels. Every time you drive a car, you put more nasty car exhaust into the...

Watching the thinker(mind) also transcends you beyond Karmic cycle. It's because, as long as you are in mind identified state, you are subject to karmic cycle of action and reaction, good or bad. Its cause your actions and words arise out of your conditioning, which is based on past. However, when you simply watch, a different dimension of consciousness emerges through, that is not part of thinking and not subject to karmic cycle or mind made polar opposites. As awareness has no opposite. That's why just being aware and non reactive is so powerful. This is the peace of One Consciousness that Jesus pointed to when he said "And the peace of God that passes all understanding will guard your hearts and mind". Have you noticed when you feel sad, anxious, or any other form of negativity, there is something in you that craves more related thoughts and emotions or the drama? You are looking at the ego that feeds on pain, stories, drama, and conflict to ensure its survival.   "Ego thinks staying in the state of negativity and unhappiness (resistance) will get it what it wants"- Course of miracles. That is, of course, a delusion. Otherwise, who would want to remain stuck in unhappiness?  If "you" - the mind - did not believe that unhappiness (resistance) works, why would you create it? The fact is, of course, that negativity does not work. Instead of attracting a desirable situation, it stops it from arising Also resistance feeds the ego that's why it loves it. So it becomes more important to acknowledge and watch or allow the resistive mental-emotional patterns than incessant thinking. You can also see 'relinquishing resistance' or 'accepting what is' as an experiment to see if it works for your or not. Since resistance has not worked for you so far. Mental positions like viewpoints, opinions, dogmas, interpretations etc., which by their very nature are limited, are no more than bundle of words that Ego has identified itself with to get a false sense of "I know" and "self". This has caused separation and so many...

Teens should aim to get 8 – 10 hours of sleep a night.  To help yourself establish a healthy sleep routine, set an alarm to remind yourself to go to sleep at the same time every night. If you find that you are still fatigued after getting at least 8 hours of sleep a night, you may want to consider consulting a doctor, as daytime fatigue may be a symptom of sleep apnea or another underlying health condition. throughout the day to provide your brain with fuel. If your body is hungry when you work, your productivity will suffer. Healthy snacks like almonds and chia seeds have fatty acids that will keep your mind alert and focused. Fruits and vegetables are also healthy options. Avoid snacking on carbohydrates or junk food. These foods can drain you of energy. If you feel most focused and energized in the morning, work on your most important or difficult task then. And, if you’re a night owl, use your mornings to work on simple and unimportant tasks. Trying to complete important or difficult tasks when you feel fatigued will reduce your overall productivity. Everybody works best at different times of the day, so experiment with your schedule to find out when you work most efficiently. The physical posture you assume can have a psychosomatic and neurological effect on you.

Estrogen is metabolized and filtered by the liver, but high levels of alcohol can decrease liver function. When liver function decreases, estrogen levels can increase.[citation needed]  If you have borderline high estrogen levels, limit your alcohol consumption to one glass per day or less. If you are already experiencing estrogen dominance, however, cut alcohol out of your diet completely. Alcohol contains estrogen-like substances (phytoestrogens) derived from the plants that are used to make the alcohol.  Such substances have been found to act as estrogens in mice and humans. Roughly 80 percent of estrogens acquired through diet come from cow's milk and dairy products made with cow's milk.[citation needed] Opt for non-dairy milk products, like almond milk or rice milk, instead.  Cows are often milked during pregnancy, when their estrogen levels are highest, which is why cow's milk can contain such high doses of estrogen. When you do consume dairy, choose helpful dairy sources. Yogurt can be especially beneficial since it contains probiotics. Caffeine, fat, and sugar can all increase estrogen levels in the body, so you should limit these foods as much as possible. For instance, even one cup of regular coffee can increase estrogen levels.[citation needed] Drinking up to four cups a day can raise your estrogen levels by as much as 70 percent.[citation needed] Soy contains plant compounds called "isoflavones" that mimic estrogen, so if you have high estrogen levels in your body, consuming unfermented soy can aggravate the estrogen's effects. Unfermented soy products include tofu and soy milk. Red meat can contain hormone additives, and these additives can boost estrogen levels in your body or behave like estrogen in the body.[citation needed] When you do eat meat, look for meat labeled as “organic” or “natural.” Consuming this meat will still cause you to consume the estrogen left over from the animal's natural stores, but you will not consume any abnormally excessive amounts of estrogen this way.

TL;DR in English: Consume less alcohol. Limit your dairy intake. Cut down on junk food. Avoid unfermented soy products. Consume less red meat.

If bacteria in your urethra and bladder are causing an infection, you'll begin to experience pain or difficulty urinating. You might feel like you frequently need to urinate, but little or no urine comes out. Other signs of a urinary tract infection (UTI) include:  Burning sensation when you urinate Pain or aching in your abdomen Cloudy, unusually colored (dark yellow or greenish), or smelly urine Feeling tired or sick If you've had signs of a UTI for several days or weeks without getting treatment, the infection can travel to your kidneys. If you're a man with an untreated UTI, it can spread to your prostate. If you experience these signs of a kidney or prostate infection, go to an urgent care clinic or get emergency medical attention:  Pain in the sides or low back Fever or chills Nausea Vomiting Diarrhea Pain when urinating Contact your doctor if you show any signs of a UTI. The doctor will get your medical history and ask about your symptoms. They'll also collect a sample of urine to test for bacteria in order to diagnose your UTI and determine treatment.  The doctor may do a rectal exam, if they believe your prostate could be infected. The doctor may do a pelvic exam if there is a discharge coming from your vagina that has an odor. This will help them to rule out a cervical infection.  If you've had several UTIs or a complicated infection, the doctor might order images of your urinary tract to rule out kidney stones or blockages. Your doctor will prescribe antibiotics to treat the bacteria causing your UTI. Follow the dosing instructions and don't stop taking the medication even once your symptoms start to improve. It's important to take the full course so the bacteria doesn't return.  Ask your doctor about any side effects of the antibiotics and whether you should avoid drinking alcohol during treatment. If you have a history of vaginitis, ask your doctor about yeast infection prevention with a combination of antibiotics and antifungal medication. You should begin feeling relief after taking antibiotics...

TL;DR in English: Pay attention to pain when you urinate or to changes in your urine. Get emergency medical attention if you have a kidney or prostate infection.

Minor hyperhidrosis can often be treated using over the counter antiperspirant deodorants.  Deodorants that say “antiperspirant” on the label are engineered to prevent your body from producing sweat and can be effective if your sweating issues are manageable.  Antiperspirant deodorants contain aluminum based compounds that temporarily block sweat producing pores, reducing the amount of sweat that leaves your skin. Most antiperspirants also help manage the smell created by bacteria in your sweat, reducing issues with body odor. Feet are a common focal point for people with primary hyperhidrosis, and the excess sweating on your feet can cause both odor and medical complications for your feet.  Try using shoes and socks made from natural materials, as they will not seal the moisture into your foot and will allow your feet to breath. Rotate your shoes so they have a chance to dry between times you wear them to prevent fungal infections like athlete’s foot. Change your socks periodically throughout the day if you find that you have sweat through them. Try wearing socks made out of merino wool or polypro that such moisture away from the feet. Excessive sweating can lead to social anxiety caused by visible sweat stains and concerns over body odor.  If your hyperhidrosis is affected by your stress or anxiety levels, this can make the problem worse.  Exercising good hygiene habits can help reduce your stress, thereby possibly reducing your symptoms.  Bathe daily to prevent body odor from becoming an issue. Make sure to dry yourself completely after you bathe. Use and antibacterial soap to control control the bugs that inhabit your sweaty skin and cause odor.  Make sure that you dry off completely before you put on antiperspirant.  Wear light fitting clothing fitting clothing including cotton and silk.  If you are exercising make sure that you bring extra clothes.  Avoid wearing heavy clothes that trap sweat.

TL;DR in English: Use an antiperspirant. Change your shoes and socks often. Maintain good hygiene habits.

When you enter the restaurant, the host or hostess will greet you by saying “irasshaimase,” which means “welcome.” Then, this person will likely ask you how many people are in your party by saying “Nan mei sama desu ka?” If you have four people, for example, answer “Yon mei desu.”  For three people, you can say “San nin desu.” If you are eating alone, say “Hitori desu.” If you are worried about understanding a Japanese menu, it’s perfectly acceptable to ask if they have an English menu available. To ask for a menu in English, say “Eigo no menyuu ga arimasu ka?” Often, a Japanese restaurant that sees a lot of English speaking tourists will offer them to you without asking. If they don’t have one available, do your best to look up Japanese on a mobile device (if available) or work with what Japanese you know. To do this, you say “Kore wa ikura desu ka?” This means "How much does this cost?" If you don’t want to ask, you can also learn some Japanese numbers to get an idea about price. This isn’t absolutely necessary, but it is certainly helpful. Start with: ichi (一)=1; ni (二)=2; san (三)=3; shi/yon (四)=4; go (五)=5; roku (六)=6; shichi/nana (七)=7; hachi (八)=8; kyuu (九)=9; juu (十)=10; hyaku (百)=100; and sen (千)=1000. You put the numbers together like this: 19 is 10 + 9 so it is juu-kyuu (十九). 90 is 9 sets of 10 so it is kyuu-juu (九十). So 198 is hyaku-kyuu-juu-hachi (百九十八). The server may come over after a few minutes. If you are not yet ready to order, say “Mou sukoshi jikan wo itadakemasu ka?” This phrase means “Can I have a little more time?” If the staff member hasn’t come over yet, you can hail the staff by calling, "Onegaishimasu" for please or "Sumimasen,” which means “excuse me.” Many nicer restaurants also have a call button you can push to summon your waiter. Ordering an individual item in Japanese is fairly simple. All you have to do is pair the name of the food or drink with the word “please.” For example, to ask for a tonkotsu ramen and a beer, say “tonkotsu ramen to bīru kudasai.” “Kudasai” means...

TL;DR in English: Tell the host or hostess how many people are in your party. Ask for an English menu. Ask about prices. Learn numbers to understand what is written on the menu. Ask for more time to look at the menu. Call over a staff member. Order an individual item with a drink. Order more than one item.

When you walk away from a bully, you show that that person doesn’t have control over your actions or emotions. Engaging the person means you are meeting him or her on  the same level. You don’t need to engage this person, and there’s no use putting any of your energy into the situation. Remember that you choose your response. Is it worth engaging with this person? It may be better to just walk away and not even bother. If someone is harassing you or egging you on,  calmly tell this person that you are not interested in engaging with him or her. Remember the person can only bully you if you give him or her power over your emotions. Once you no longer seem to care what this person thinks, he or she may become bored or disinterested.  If the person persists, ignore the person. Say, “I don’t want to talk to you” or “This doesn’t interest me.” Remember that you have control over how (or if) you react. If it isn’t worth your time, say so. Ask yourself, “Will I remember this situation in 1 year? What about 5 years? Will this affect my life then?” If not, determine to spend your energy and time elsewhere. Also ask yourself if these are people that will continue to be in your life for a long time. If you have plans to go to college or move, it’s likely these people will be gone from your life soon enough. If someone is being mean to you, respond with a joke or with some humor. Humor completely disarms someone trying to hurt you, and he or she may be too surprised to know how to respond. When you use humor, it shows that this person has no control over you.  If a mean person targets you and you respond with a joke, it’s likely he or she will lose interest in trying to hurt you. If someone is making fun of your shoe size, say, “You’re probably right. I tried out for the Lord of the Rings but I guess my feet weren’t hairy enough.”

TL;DR in English:


Blow dirt or dust off the window. Use clear water to clean lightly soiled acrylic. Use a non-abrasive cleaner on dirtier windows. Blot the surface dry. Remove scratches using car wax. Scrape the surface. Sand the surface.

A good site to begin with is eBay. It's user-friendly, and you don't have to have a lot of know-how to figure it out. Plus, the listing prices aren't too expensive, and it has a wide range of items. Other sites you can try include Amazon, Etsy (for vintage items), and even sites like Craigslist or Facebook (for larger items, especially). Amazon has more restrictions on listings than eBay. For instance, it restricts some selling categories. Some sites, such as eBay, have several options for listing items. You can list it as an auction item, where customers bid on it, or you can list it exclusively as a "Buy It Now" item. You can also do a combo of the two, where you start the item out at an auction price, but you have a "Buy It Now" option that's higher.  If you do an auction, make sure that you don't sell yourself short. If you start the bidding out too low, you could sell the item for much less than you'd like. A good rule of thumb is to start the item off at least at cost. A combination of the two works well, because customers can just grab the item if they really want it. Nonetheless, if you set the "Buy It Now" too low, you may be missing out on some profit. When you list the item, try to get a good overall shot. However, you also need to get the item from other angles, so that the customer can see it from all sides. Try to highlight any damage so you're not deceiving the customer. You should aim for at least five photos per item. Adding something for size perspective, such as a ruler, can also be helpful, especially for small items. In this case, "catchy" often means using popular keywords for your item, as well as details for your item. Don't get into a lengthy description. The keywords will help you find a good place in the listings, help you attract more customers. For instance, "Vintage Unicorn Jeans, Size 12, from 1972" can work better than "Beautiful Vintage Jeans. Must See!" Take a short paragraph to thoroughly describe the item. Make sure to include things like the brand and color. Also, don't...

TL;DR in English: Find a site. Decide how you want to list it. Have photos from every angle. Create a catchy title. Describe the item accurately. Include your policies in your listing. Don't forget to include shipping and supplies.

A bad boy knows what he wants from a partner and is honest about it (see step six under Part One.) There's no shame in pursuing purely sexual relationships as long as you're honest about it. Similarly, having a long-term girlfriend doesn't mean you have to be less of a bad boy. Below are some tips for handling the fairer sex like a true bad boy. The goal of a relationship shouldn't be to dedicate your life to your partner. Even if you're married, make your own plans. Reserve time for yourself. Spend time with your friends. If you treat yourself like a valuable commodity, your time will be highly sought-after by your partner. Conversely, if you're constantly making yourself available to your partner's whims, your time will become less valuable. Keep your backbone in any relationship - make sure you're not so dedicated to your partner that you forget about yourself. Being in a relationship with someone doesn't mean you need to worship them. Tease them! A lighthearted back-and-forth keeps a relationship passionate and fiery. It's also a good sign of a confident "alpha" personality - you're showing you're not afraid to engage in a little verbal swordplay. Think about it - would you really want to be in a relationship with someone you  always  have to be nice to?  Don't be too cruel with your teasing. Avoid subjects that your partner is sensitive about - for instance, her looks or her career. Keep it light. Be prepared to receive some teasing yourself - don't dish it out if you can't take it! If you accidentally hurt your partner's feelings, make a genuine apology. Remember, bad boys are honest - if you're truly sorry, say so. Don't feel like you need to withhold a well-deserved apology to be a bad boy. That's not "bad" - it's just jerkish. This doesn't mean to boss your partner around or prevent her from making decisions. Rather, it means you should aim to be decisive in situations where it's appropriate and to have a plan at all times. For instance, if you're going out, pick a place and make reservations ahead...

TL;DR in English: Know what you want. Have your own life. Be cocky. Wear the pants in your relationship. Be surprising. Give her space and make sure she gives you space.

Because acrylic is easily scratched, you don’t want to just wipe away any dirt or dust that is on the surface of the window. Instead, use air or water to remove dirt before you begin to clean. You can use canned air to blow dirt off of the windows, or drip water onto the surface that picks up the dirt and allows you to float it off. If you use water, blot the window dry with a microfiber cloth after the dirt has come up. If your acrylic window still needs a bit of cleaning after you've removed the top layer of dust and dirt, use clear water to clean it. Simply repeat the process of dropping water onto the surface of the acrylic and blot it dry with a microfiber cloth. Don’t rub the window with the microfiber cloth as this can cause scratches in the acrylic. If you’re washing particularly dirty or outside-facing windows, mix equal parts non-abrasive cleaner and water to make a cleaning solution. Then dip a microfiber cloth in the solution and gently blot the acrylic surface clean. Good non-abrasive cleaners for this type of cleaning are castile soap, baby shampoo, or Woolite or Dreft. Once you’re done cleaning the acrylic window, use a dry microfiber cloth to blot the surface of the window dry. Avoid wiping the cloth across the surface of the window as this can cause scratches. If, once you’ve cleaned the window, you discover scratches in the surface, you can use car wax to remove them. Apply wax to the areas that are scratched and use the buffer that comes with the wax to buff the surface. If you’ve never buffed a surface before, proceed for gently with this step. If you have very deep scratches in the acrylic, you scrape the surface of the acrylic. Hold a sharp scarping tool at a 10 degree angle and move it from side to side, evenly and gently scraping off the excess. This technique should only be used for very, very deep scratches. Sanding the surface of acrylic gives it a matte finish, which gives it a frosted look. You can perform this technique with sand paper by hand, or with sanding tools. Simply sand...

TL;DR in English:


Remind your friend if she starts falling back on old behavior. Stop being a doormat. Stay positive. Check progress often. Take a break. Know when it’s time to end the relationship.

You can host the party indoors at your home if you plan to have a smaller guest list of around 20-30 people. If you plan to invite more than 50 people, you may want to consider renting an indoor venue, such as a jazz club, a restaurant, or a community hall. You may go for an indoor venue if the weather is going to be unpredictable or too cold for your guests on the day of the party. If you know you are going to have good weather for the party, consider an outdoor venue like your backyard or a park. Outdoor venues were popular in the 1920s. You can also rent out the patio at a local restaurant or an outdoor garden. It may be fun to find an outdoor venue where you can put up white tents so guests can enjoy the weather without being directly in the sun or the elements all party long. A Great Gatsby party will be the most atmospheric at night. Parties in the 1920s were often scheduled late at night, going until the early morning. Make the start time for the party in the evening, such as 8 o’clock or 9 o’clock. Expect guests to arrive fashionably late. Having the party later at night will also give you time to prepare for the party that day. Go for a black and gold theme for the invitations to make them more Gatsby-esque. Choose art deco patterns and gold glitter. Pick font that is slim and glamorous looking. You can make your own invitations using your computer or an online invitation site. Send out the invitations at least two weeks before the party date. You can also order custom invitations from online print and design shops. For example, you may write, "The party is on Thursday, March 4, at the Kelly Jazz Bar, from 8 pm to 1 am." You can also include a note about the theme of the party, such as, “Please join us for a Great Gatsby Party.” Ask your guests to dress up based on the theme. Suggest flapper dresses, pearls, feathers, dapper suits, and silk scarves. Encourage your guests to dress in their best Gatsby style outfits for the party.  You may note that dressing up is optional, but recommended in the invitation.

TL;DR in English: Get an indoor venue for a smaller party. Go for an outdoor venue based on the weather. Schedule the party for the evening. Send out custom invitations. Note the time, date, and place of the party in the invitations. Request Gatsby-esque attire from guests.

If your friend starts falling back into their old behavior, say something about it. Do this each time it happens. Let them know how the behavior makes you feel, and remind them that they agreed not to work on it.  Let your friend know when they act selfish, such as constantly seeking attention by spamming you with text messages. If your friend made a promise to fix their behavior, then remind them of that promise. It's possible they forgot, and just need a gentle reminder. Many people behave in selfish ways because other people let it happen. If a person asks for excessive favors or talks about herself without stopping, stop the behavior right away. Don’t allow the person to walk all over you.  For example, if they always talk about themselves whenever you hang out, you could decline the invitation. You could also accept it, but steer the conversation your way. For example, if your friend is always looking for sympathy, stop giving it to them. Instead, offer solutions or help them see the positive side of the situation. If a selfish person treats you poorly, it’s not because you’re not worth being treated well. Selfish people ignore their friends or neglect their obligations because they only think of themselves, and this has nothing to do you or your value as a person. Don’t let your friend’s behavior get to you or make you feel bad about yourself. Spend some time thinking about whether the person has been truly committed to changing. Often, you will see immediate changes because the person is embarrassed and had never realized that she was selfish. Other times, changes will be slower, but you’ll see your friend taking small steps to change. Try to stay patient.  Talk to your friend every few days. See if they're doing better in their personal lives, or whether they're holding up their promise to be less selfish. Hanging out with your friend is a great way to tell if their behavior is changing. Spend time together as you normally would, and see if your friendship feels different or improved. Talk to mutual...
