Focus on sanding one small section at a time. Use a sanding block or pad—not a power sander. Begin sanding. Change directions. Sand with higher-grit paper. Make it dull.

Asking a suggestive question will excite him and get his imagination going. It also invites him to reply with something equally suggestive. You might ask any of the following:  “What's your secret fetish?” “Why do you make me so frisky?!” “Remember that time we (insert something naughty the two of you have done)? Game for round 2?” “I'm crazy flexible. All that yoga's really paying off...wanna see later?” “Want to play dare or dare?” Send a playful text that hints at something a little more naughty using relatively innocent language. This will remind him of how much fun you are to be around (and do things with!). Try these playful lines:  “You'd look so vogue wearing my panties. Fashion show later? Please!?” “I can't stop laughing at this sex scene I just watched—ha! We could do better.” “I can't stop thinking about naughty things. Can you help me with this?” “Hey, I'm trying to focus here, if you could stop thinking about doing dirty things with me that'd be great. 😉” Whether you're a soft romantic or bold vixen type, sending a candid text about how you feel about him will deepen your relationship. Super straightforward lines are especially effective if you know he likes it when you take the reigns. You might try:  “Your kisses really do something to me, like a lightning bolt.” “I can't sleep. All I keep thinking about is having you here next to me.” “Making love to you feels like I'm on another planet.” “I loved it when you ____ the other night, I've never felt that good before.” “Confession: I want you. Like, now.” Discuss what you plan to do to him, talk about what you're wearing, or make up a sexual scenario involving the two of you. Try to add as much detail as you can and be as bold or subtle as you feel comfortable doing. For example, you might text:  “First, I'm going to slowly run my fingers across your lips…” “I'm wearing those panties you like…” “You. Me. Naked. Kitchen counter. Dinner. Repeat.”

TL;DR in English: Ask teasing and intriguing questions to get you on his mind. Show your sense of humor to spark his imagination. Be bold with a romantic or straightforward text. Send sensory details to make him fantasize about you.

A Tarot reading is a narrative, a story that you tell to the Seeker.  It's an attempt to highlight past influences, understand present circumstances and predict the most likely future. The future you speak of will not be a fixed or definitive outcome; it's important to remember that there are no conclusive endings or absolutes. A "spread" simply refers to the layout of your cards. A Tarot spread is a configuration or pattern of cards. That pattern provides the framework for a tarot reading.  Further, each position of the tarot cards in a spread has a specific meaning.  Your reading will use the placement or position of the cards within an identified theme. For example, many spreads include positions for the past, present and future. They can also include positions for internal feelings, specific challenges, external factors and so on.  There are hundreds of spreads to try, and more experienced readers can make up their own.  Experiment with different spreads, trying especially to choose ones that encourage your imagination and intuition.  Figuring out what works best for you is important; many readers come to rely on specific spreads that work best for them. A three-card spread is great for divining answers to uncomplicated questions, for refocusing on simplicity an for beginners who have just started reading.  Assign the positions in advance, lay out your spread and use what you've learned about card meanings and combinations to tell a story.  Some possible positions for a reading designed to understand a situation are:  past/present/future, current situation/obstacle/advice, where you stand now/what you aspire to/how to get there and what will help you/what will hinder you/what is your unrealized potential. Some possible positions for a reading designed to understand relationships are:  you/the other person/the relationship, opportunities/challenges/outcomes, what brings you together/what pulls you apart/what needs your attention and what you want from the relationship/what you want from the...

TL;DR in English: Tell a story. Get familiar with spreads. Start with a Three-Card Spread.

Get that right and you'll find it much easier to work out what goes where. You will often find it easier to draw the shape of the negative space around an object than the edge of the object itself. One of the most important aspects of drawing realistic images is to ensure that you are drawing what you actually see, rather than what you think you see. Our brains tend to generalize images, so paying attention to and recreating what your brain tends to skip over will not only create a more realistic image but teach you a lot.  One trick to prevent drawing your assumptions is to get a picture from a magazine, turn it upside down, and draw it. This technique tricks your brain into thinking it's looking at something new instead of something you think you're familiar with. In this way, you can draw what you actually see - unique shapes - instead of drawing what you've always assumed the subject looks like. Pay particular attention to things like ears, noses, tree leaves and shirt collars. These are things which we tend to generalize in our minds and ignore the details of. If you want to draw something realistically, make sure you are drawing the things which make it unique. Things like ears are vastly different between different people. . Perspective, or how objects seem different sizes relative to their distance from you, is very important to making objects look realistic. When creating a realistic landscape, for example, you will need to draw the trees that are further away as being smaller and less detailed, even though they may, in fact, be taller than the trees which are closer to you. This will mimic how your eye perceives objects and make the image more realistic.  Perspective is drawn by first finding the horizon line. When you look at anything in real life, you will see that there is a point at which the physical Earth that you can see meets with the sky. This is the horizon line. You will need to figure out where this should be in your picture and lightly draw it in using a ruler. Draw in a disappearing...

TL;DR in English: Draw the complete silhouette of the subject first. Draw what you see, not what you think you see.  Use perspective Pay attention to proportions.

The size of the section is up to you, but one square foot at a time is usually a good approach; just remember which sections you have done and which you haven’t. This will make the job of sanding the entire car body more manageable. It will also ensure that each part of the surface receives adequate attention. Ideally, you’d use a rubber pad as it helps conform to the shape of your panel’s surface. For optimal results, start with the 600-grit sandpaper, and then sand later with the higher-grit paper, such as a 1500-2000-grit paper. Otherwise, go straight to the higher-grit paper.  Use very little pressure. With your soaked paper in one hand and a wet rag in the other, begin sanding with long strokes all in the direction wind travels across the car: from bumper to windshield, for example. Sand with one hand, and use your other hand to keep the surface wet with your rag. Remember to sand evenly. Periodically take a step back to look at your progress and make sure everything looks even. After sanding in one direction, cross out the original strokes with a slight diagonal direction. Remember to keep the surface dripping wet, to prevent burning the clear coat. If you’ve chosen to begin with 600-grit paper, now is the time to do a second sanding with 1500-grit or 2000-grit paper. Your surface should appear very dull after sanding. This is the goal. Buffing will make it shine.

TL;DR in English:


You can move your token in any one legal direction: toward a wedge or toward the center when on a spoke, clockwise or counterclockwise when on the outer wheel. You can also move from a spoke to the outer wheel or from the outer wheel to a spoke. However, you cannot reverse direction in the middle of a roll. If you land on a "Roll Again" space, roll the die again. (You can move in any legal direction, including the opposite direction from your previous roll.) In Trivial Pursuit, you get to move again if you give the right answer. You can keep rolling, moving, and answering questions until you get one wrong. Just keep in mind that the questions you answer must correspond with the color space you land on. For example, if you land on a blue space, then you must answer a blue question.  If you are in the center space and have not earned all six wedges, you may answer a question in any category of your choice. In the 25th Anniversary Edition, the question you must answer is also determined by the roll of the die, as each box contains questions for a single category. The higher you roll, the more difficult the question you receive. You can earn pie pieces by correctly answering questions, but you can only earn a pie piece when you are on a pie space. These spaces look different from the others on the board because they show an image of the pie token with a wedge in it. For example, if you land on a brown wedge space and answer the question correctly, then you would earn a brown pie piece. When a player gets all six pie pieces, that player may begin moving to the center or the board. You must keep rolling and moving each turn as usual until you get to the center space on the board. You need to roll the exact number of spaces to get to the center space. Keep in mind that you may spend several turns coming up short of or overshooting the center until you land on it. When you get to the center space, your fellow players may choose any category and ask you a question from that category. If you answer this question...

TL;DR in English: Roll the die and move your pie the number of spaces indicated on the die. Move again if you give the correct answer. Earn pie pieces if you land on a wedge space and give the right answer. Keep playing until someone has all six wedges. Answer a question in a category chosen by the other players.

It is important not to breed dogs that have hip dysplasia, as it will be passed onto their puppies. To reduce the incidence of hip dysplasia, good breeders now screen breeding stock for the condition. Thus, only dogs screened by the Orthopaedic Foundation for Animals and found to have good hips scores should be used for breeding.  By breeding from Rottweiler's with healthy hips, in time, the breed's health will improve and countless owners will be spared the heartbreak of seeing an active dog struggling to move and in constant pain.  Make sure any Rottweiler puppy you purchase comes from a reputable breeder who actually follows these guidelines. This is important for the future health of a dog you adopt. It is also important to avoid supporting breeders who continue to encourage this problem through bad breeding practices. The deterioration can be hastened by a poor diet that is not balanced to provide the slow, sustained bone growth of a large breed such as a Rottweiler. To this end, it is best to feed a special diet designed for "large breed growth." Excessive amounts of exercise in a puppy can also make the joints more vulnerable to damage. This can accelerate the onset of the disability caused by dysplasia.  Try to give your dog low-impact exercise. This means exercise that is easier on the joints, such as walking or swimming. This will allow the dog to burn off some of its energy, while not threatening the future health of its joints.  Older dogs with bad joints need to have controlled amounts of exercise as well, but they usually do not have the energy or youthful enthusiasm that makes this kind of exercise likely.

TL;DR in English: Don't breed dogs with the condition. Feed your dog special large breed food. Avoid excessive amounts of exercise for puppies.

When you’re meeting the child for the first time, take a small toy with you so you can show them. Ask them if they want to take turns playing with the toy so you can spend time around them. Talk to the child’s parents to see if it’s alright for the child to keep the toy before letting them have it.  If you’re babysitting, take the toy with you when you leave. That way, you can bring it next time so the child has something special to play with while you’re with them. Don’t spoil the child with gifts every time you see them since they may start to expect something every time you see them. It can also make the child’s parents feel uncomfortable. Rather than forcing the child to do an activity they don’t want to do, see what they’re interested in. Give them a few options for what toys to play with, and let them pick one out on their own. Let the child play with the toy for a minute to see what they’re doing with it before playing with them. If the child says they want to stop playing with something, let them find another thing to do. Let the kid get creative with how they play rather than forcing them to play how you want. For example, if the child likes to knock over blocks, then build different shape towers for them to destroy. Little kids like to goof around and have fun while they’re playing, so act a little silly around them. Make silly noises, tell silly jokes, and speak in a funny voice while you’re playing to make them have more fun spending time with you. The more you’re willing to loosen up and have fun, the more the children will listen and enjoy spending time around you. Look for children’s joke books so you can learn some funny and appropriate jokes to tell the kids. Kids have an active imagination, so being able to pretend with them will allow you to spend quality time together. If the child wants to play make-believe, ask them what they want to do, such as ride in a spaceship or play house. Listen to the kid as they make up what’s happening to them, and respond to them to continue pretending. For...

Start by trying to distill down your novel idea into one sentence. You may need several minutes to one hour to create a one sentence summary. Aim for 15 words or fewer and avoid any character names in the summary. The summary should include the central conflict or issue at the heart of the novel. For example, you may write “A woman living in seclusion in the jungle gets a visit from the daughter she never knew she had.” Once you have the one sentence summary, you should try to expand it into a paragraph that is detailed and specific. Use the summary as a guide to write about the major conflicts or issues in the novel as well as the ending of the novel. Aim for five sentences total, one sentence that discusses the story set up, three sentences on the major conflicts or issues, and one sentence on the ending of the novel. For example, you may write “A woman, Susan, lives in seclusion in the jungle where she tries to live off the land. She gets an unexpected visit from a daughter she never knew she had and they develop the beginnings of a relationship. She makes the decision to move with her daughter to the city, but realizes she does not fit into her daughter’s lifestyle. She struggles to connect to others and adopt a modern way of life. In the end, Susan leaves the city and her daughter behind and returns to the jungle.” Now that you have a one paragraph summary of the novel, you can start to dig into the details of your characters. Create profiles for each main character, including details about the characters like their age, their physical appearance, their way of speaking, and their general disposition.  For example, you may have a character profile that reads, “Susan, 37, dark hair, Latin features, dresses plainly in practical clothing, speaks Spanish and English, keeps to herself and tends to be solitary in nature.” You may also include storylines for each character and note how they intersect with one another. For example, you may write, “Susan was planning to live in the jungle forever, away from...

Making sure your toes have enough room is one of the most important things to look for in a new pair of running shoes.  Your toes should be able to move freely from side to side within the shoe's forefoot. When standing normally, your little toe should not be sitting on the edge of the insole. There should be about one thumbs-width of space between your longest toe and the top of the shoe. Have a sales assistant or friend measure this while you are standing up straight. Make sure the top of the shoe doesn't fit too tightly across your toes - you should be able to wiggle your toes up and down, as if playing the piano! If the heel of your running shoe is too tight or too loose, it can cause irritation while running.  The perfect running shoe will fit snugly around your heel, but won't be too tight. When your shoes are laced to the final eyelet (but not tied) you should be able to slip your foot out of the shoe without too much difficulty. A little bit of movement around the heel is acceptable, but if you have any doubts you should trust your gut. Remember that any slight issues you have while trying shoes on in the store will be amplified once you go for your first run. The shoe's upper should feel secure around your instep, but it should not feel in any way uncomfortable or tight.  If you feel any kind of pressure or tightness around your instep, the shoe is probably too small and you should try a bigger size. However, if the pressure or pain is concentrated in the area beneath the laces, you may want to try lacing the shoe a different way before moving on to the next shoe. The flex point of the shoe is the point at which it bends while running. For optimal comfort, the flex point of the shoe should match the bending point of your foot.  You can check the flex point of the shoe by holding it by the heel and pressing the toe of the shoe onto the ground. The point where the shoe bends and creases (if it bends at all) is the flex point. This step is important, because if the flex point of the shoe doesn't align...

TL;DR in English: Make sure your toes have enough room. Make sure the heel fits comfortably. Make sure the shoe's upper feels snug but not tight. Check the flex point of the shoes. Choose the right shoes for your arches.

Women that have recurrent or unexplained miscarriages often respond to treatment with progesterone, and are able to maintain the next pregnancy.  Prevent early miscarriage. Progesterone deficiency is not the cause of every miscarriage, but scientific research indicates that adequate amounts of progesterone are needed to support the early stages of pregnancy.  Progesterone levels naturally increase during each menstrual cycle once ovulation has occurred. This allows for the uterine wall to thicken to provide support for the pregnancy. This is called the luteal phase.  Once the released egg has been fertilized, the lining of the uterus provides protection for the egg as it begins to develop. After the first few weeks, the placenta takes over, producing the additional hormones and nutrients needed.  Some women have naturally lower levels of progesterone. Some studies suggest that low levels during the first few weeks of pregnancy can cause the uterine lining to be inadequate to support the pregnancy, causing the miscarriage. Evidence for this is limited, however.  Inadequate levels of progesterone needed to support the early stage of pregnancy are sometimes referred to as a luteal phase defect. Using progesterone vaginal inserts may help prevent early miscarriage, depending on the cause of the miscarriage.  The scientific literature supports the use of vaginally applied progesterone, via inserts or suppositories, to help maintain the lining of the uterus to support the pregnancy.  While other ways to administer progesterone are available, such as injections, oral dosing, and topical creams, for women with luteal phase defects and recurrent or unexplained miscarriages, this is the recommended method of delivery. ART helps to induce pregnancy by using procedures that remove the eggs from the woman, combine them with sperm in a laboratory setting, then return them to the woman’s body, or to another woman’s body. There are many methods that help couples to achieve pregnancy. ART is one only one method. Women that...

TL;DR in English: Talk with your gynecologist about increasing progesterone. Use progesterone vaginal inserts. Supplement progesterone during assisted reproductive technology, or ART. Use injectable or vaginally administered progesterone. Administer the progesterone by using a vaginal gel product. Seek immediate medical attention if severe side effects develop.

Do not use products that contain sulfates. Sulfates are great at cleaning your hair, but they can also strip it of dye. If you want to make your color last longer, stick with color-safe, sulfate-free shampoos and conditioners. Most products will say on the label if they are color-safe or sulfate-free. If you are not sure, read the ingredient list on the back of the bottle. Avoid anything with the word "sulfate" in it. Add some of your dye to your bottle of conditioner. This will deposit a little bit of color into your hair each time that you wash it and help the color last longer. Purchase a deep-conditioning mask meant for colored or chemically-treated hair. Apply the mask to damp hair, then tuck your hair under a plastic shower cap. Wait for the time on the package, then rinse the mask out. Most hair masks need to be left in your hair for 5 to 10 minutes, but some need to be left in for 15 to 20 minutes. Read the label, but don't panic if you leave the mask in too long. The more often you wash your hair, the faster it will fade--even with a sulfate-free, color-safe shampoo and conditioner. If your hair tends to get oily or greasy, consider using a dry shampoo between your washing sessions. Much like heat styling, hot water can cause the dye to fade faster from your hair. It can also cause your hair to appear damaged. After you have finished shampooing and conditioning your hair, rinse your hair with cold water for 1 minute for extra smoothness and shine. If you can't handle cold water, use lukewarm water instead. Unless it is freezing outside and you are running late for work or school, let your hair air dry. If you want to curl your hair, seek out a method that does not require any heat, such as foam hair rollers. Avoid straightening your hair, when possible.  If you must use a flat iron or a curling iron, make sure that your hair is completely dry first. Apply a good heat protectant and use a lower heat setting. The sun can cause the color to fade as well. Wear hats, scarves, or hoods when going outside....

If you are old enough to have to consider professional clothing, do so where grown-ups shop. That also goes for clothing stores that cater exclusively to teens and very young adults like "Forever 21". That does not necessarily mean you have to dress exactly like your mother or father. However, if you are trying to find clothing to help you to be taken seriously as a young adult, you have to accept that you have to dress the part--at least at work. In putting together a wardrobe of work clothes, often your best ally are good salespeople in a quality store.  This can be a stand-alone store, such as a menswear store, or a department store. A knowledgeable salesperson can help you select clothing to meet your needs, be sure it fits properly, and accessorize appropriately.  Try to find a salesperson dressed more or less in the way you want to dress. This may be a good indication that he or she has a fashion sensibility that matches yours. However, be open for other individuals. That matronly salesperson may actually really know what the young people like these days! It can help to bring someone whose judgement you trust to this sort of shopping trip.For instance, your mother or your fashion-savvy friend. Yes, you need to try on the clothes. Ill-fitting clothes are not professional, and fit cannot typically be judged well on a hanger. If ordering online, be prepared to send back things that do not fit. Make sure of fit. Just because you can wear it does not mean it fits properly. This includes pants that are showing the lines of your underwear, and baggy oversized shirts. Minor alterations are usually available at higher-end stores, and can make a great different in fit and appearance. Remember: the salesperson will ultimately sell you whatever you want, even if it really is not in line with appropriateness or good taste.

The substances used in this section are powerful stain removers. However, due to their strength, they may bleach your fabric or cause permanent damage to the fibres. These methods are best used on white, non-delicate items, or as a last resort after other methods have failed. Once you've acquired one of the following solutions, use a cotton ball or paper towel to dab a small amount on a corner or hidden area of the fabric. Let it sit for five to ten minutes to see whether it stains your fabric. Vinegar is not typically as strong as the options below, but still has the potential to harm fabric. Soak the stained fabric in white vinegar for about thirty minutes, then rub the stain with your fingers as you rinse it in cool water. Repeat if the stain is noticeably improved but still present. A 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, which is the strength it is typically sold at, can be poured directly onto the stain or applied with a cotton ball. Be aware that it will likely bleach colored fabric. Keep the fabric in a dark place for 5-10 minutes, since light breaks down hydrogen peroxide, then blot with a sponge or cloth. Start with "household ammonia" or "ammonia hydroxide," sold as a cleaning product. Dilute this with an equal amount of water, and leave it on the stain for fifteen minutes before blotting and rinsing. If your "test corner" showed signs of damage, you may wish to soak the fabric in a much weaker solution, such as 15 ml (1 tbsp) household ammonia, 1 L (1 quart) water, and a drop of liquid handwashing detergent.  Warning: ammonia may destroy the protein fibres that form silk or wool. Household ammonia is approximately 5—10% ammonia and 90–95% water. Stronger ammonia solutions are highly caustic, and should be diluted even more.

TL;DR in English: Understand the risks. Test on a corner of the item first. Consider using white vinegar. Try hydrogen peroxide. Test an ammonia mixture instead.

Sometimes it is better to stop pretending you're happy and start letting out some of your sadness or anger to someone you trust. Letting your feelings stay bottled up will cause you to feel more unhappy and can harm your overall health in the long run. Maybe you can’t express your feelings while you’re at school or with other people, but make sure you find a way to acknowledge and express your emotions. Don’t hold your emotions in. Look inside yourself and try to name the feelings you feel. Then, find an outlet to help you express it.  Write in a journal, write song lyrics, listen to music, dance, paint, or draw. Whatever you do, it should help you work through your feelings and express them in a meaningful way. If you feel like you have to pretend to be happy in order to manage your sadness or you hate to be a “buzzkill,” it might be time to consider treatment for depression. Notice if you have symptoms of depression and talk them over with a professional. They can help you manage your symptoms, prevent future episodes, and provide a place for you to share your honest feelings. Find a therapist by contacting your insurance provider or a local mental health clinic. You can also get a recommendation from a family member or friend.

TL;DR in English: Talk to someone you trust about how you feel. Express how you feel in some way. See a therapist if you feel depressed.

If you have a tendency to talk to yourself in a loud tone that you find embarrassing, consider talking in a quieter tone. Whenever you find yourself self-talking aloud, lower your volume to a level that you are comfortable with and that is not disruptive to those around you. Although thinking out loud is good for your thought process, you do not want to be a nuisance. If you want to help your brain work through a task or memorize a certain bit of information, you might whisper to yourself in a soft tone or go somewhere where you can talk out loud. In some places, thinking out loud may not be appropriate. For example, if you are studying in a quiet library, speaking out loud may earn you some glares. In that case, try going somewhere, like a park, where you can think out loud.  If you need to work through something out loud, consider doing it at home or in your office. Find a space where you will not distract other people. Mindfulness is a way to be present in your current situation. Being mindful when you communicate with people is a way to be curious, kind, and compassionate. It can also help you to avoid lying, hurtful or verbally aggressive language, gossip, and divisive speech. Using mindful communication can also help to improve your relationships. It will improve your ability to listen, respond, and engage with your friends, family, coworkers, and others. Saying what you think can be difficult if you have a tendency to say rude or hurtful things. In that case, practice using your inner monologue around other people. When you are around others, say in your head what you might normally say out loud and, if it is not rude, vocalize that thought. If you are unable to filter what you say, despite your best efforts, you should visit a mental health professional.

Use Safe Mode. Reboot in Safe Mode. Hit F8. Select Safe Mode and hit enter. Begin fixing your computer.

Tell your spouse that you'd like to have a serious conversation about your mother-in-law, and ask him or her when a good time would be. Letting your spouse know in advance that you want to have a serious talk will keep them from feeling blindsided when you do sit down to talk.  Don't avoid the talk for too long, as doing so builds resentment. In addition, if you want too long, your stress could come out as you snapping at your spouse because they're the person you can take it out on. You want your mother-in-law to move out, and you need to be upfront about that. Remember, though, your spouse may not want to hear it, especially if they enjoy having their mother around.  You could say, "I love your mother, I do. I think it's time that we have our own space, though. I think it's time to ask your mother to move out." Don't forget to give your partner some breathing room before launching into why. Make a list of everything extra you do because your mother-in-law is in the house. This step isn't to be petty. It's to show your spouse that it really is taxing for his or her mother to be there. Your spouse may not even realize how much of a burden it is putting on you.  You don't want to blame your spouse for the extra work. Rather, you just want to bring his or her attention to it. For example, you don't want to say, "Your mother is so much work!" Rather, you might say, "I'm working longer hours with her in the house. I love her, and I like doing things for her. However, there's only so much of me to go around. You may not realize how much extra I do because she's here, so here are some of the things I do for her." You also need to discuss what stress she brings to the household. It could be intentional stress, such as her criticizing your choices, or could be non-intentional, such as her constant presence putting a damper on your sex life.  Once again, try to bring it up in such a way that you're not blaming your spouse for it. Try using "I" statements instead of "You" statements. As an example, you could say, "I...

TL;DR in English: Ask your spouse to sit down with you. Tell your spouse what you want. Bring up any extra work. Talk about the stress. Discuss finances. Agree on common goals. Understand where your spouse is coming from.

This is the most basic way of saying "I'm sorry" to someone in French, and you should use it in most formal situations.  The phrase "Je suis" means "I am," and "désolé" means "sorry" in the form of an adjective. Write "désolé" if you're male and "désolée" if you're female. Regardless of gender, pronounce the entire phrase: zhuh swee day-zoh-lay  You should use this phrase when apologizing for something serious, apologizing to strangers, apologizing to elders, or apologizing in a professional or other formal situation. If you need to apologize for something very serious, you should say, "Je suis vraiment désolé" (male) or "Je suis vraiment désolée" (female).  The term "vraiment" means "truly" or "really." When inserted into the usual apology, you're essentially saying, "I am truly sorry." Pronounce the entire phrase: zhuh swee vray-mohn day-zoh-lay When you're in an informal situation, you can drop the "Je suis" portion of the phrase and simply state, "Désolé."  Essentially, you're dropping the words "I am" and simply saying "sorry" instead of "I am sorry." As with the formal version of the phrase, you should write "désolé" if you're male and "désolé" if you're female. Regardless of gender, pronounce the apology:day-zoh-lay  Use this phrase when issuing a quick apology to friends or other close peers. Ideally, you should only use it when the offense was relatively minor, and should opt for the formal "e suis désolé" after major offenses.

TL;DR in English: Say "Je suis désolé" in formal situations. Add "vraiment" for serious matters. Offer "désolé" in casual situations.

For a snakebite from a venomous snake, keeping your cat calm and quiet is the best first aid that you can administer to your cat before she receives veterinary care. The more agitated and active she is, the more quickly the venom could spread through her body and make her even sicker. It is actually recommended that keeping your cat calm and quiet is the  only  first aid that you should administer on your own.  Do not allow your cat to walk or run around as this will increase her heart rate and stimulate more blood circulation. Keep in mind that your cat may snap at you or try to bite you because of the amount of pain that she’s in. Gentle pressure will help control the bleeding from the bite wound. An example of first aid that you should  not  administer is cutting the wound open to suck out the venom or drain the wound. Not only is this ineffective, you would cause more pain and suffering for your cat. In addition, the venom could be venomous to you.  Do not apply a tourniquet or compression bandage in the area near the bite wound. Do not apply ice to the bite wound. The ice does not slow the spread of the venom and can actually damage the skin. Do not wash the wound if the bite was from a venomous snake. Washing the wound could increase the absorption of the venom. The action most likely to save your cat's life is getting her to your veterinarian as soon as possible. If possible, transport your cat in her carrier or a large box in which she can comfortably lie down. To help keep her calm and still during the drive to the veterinarian, loosely wrap your cat in a large towel or sheet. The effects of snake venom are usually irreversible and often begin immediately after the snakebite. To increase the chances of your cat’s survival and treat the effects of the snake venom, your cat will need immediate veterinary treatment. Your veterinarian may have a snakebite detection kit, which would allow him or her to identify what type of snake bit your cat. However, in the event that your veterinarian does not have the...

TL;DR in English: Keep your cat calm and quiet. Do not administer first aid other than gentle pressure. Take your cat to your veterinarian immediately. Provide as much history as you can about the snakebite. Allow your veterinarian to diagnose your cat. Approve of your veterinarian’s recommended treatment plan. Ask your veterinarian about your cat’s prognosis. Care for your cat when is released from the veterinary hospital.

Safe Mode is the best place to start to fix your computer when it is malfunctioning. This mode can be used to combat certain types of viruses, as well as a diagnosis tool if you are unsure of why the computer is not functioning. If the computer boots and functions in Safe Mode, then you know that the problem is with a program, driver or other file, rather than with the computer itself. Reboot in Safe Mode from the Shutdown menu, if accessible. If the Shutdown menu is inaccessible, you can restart the computer and repeatedly press F8 while it is loading. This should give you access to the Boot Menu. Press the down key to access the Safe Mode option and hit enter. Once the program starts, you can begin attempting to fix your computer. There are a number of different methods you can try to which you use will largely depend on what kind of problem you are having.  Delete files associated with a known virus in your system that the virus would normally make inaccessible. Download or run anti-virus software that a virus would normally make inaccessible. This may require you to boot in Safe Mode with Networking. Uninstall recently installed programs which you suspect may be causing problems. Update drivers if you suspect that severely outdated drivers may be the problem. Do a System Restore, which is similar to the Last Known Good Configuration below. Do this by searching System Restore from the start menu and following the prompts. Don’t forget to scan for affected programs.

Cut about 1 inch (2.5 cm) more bias binding than you will need. Join the ends before you sew the rest of the bias binding. Pinch and mark the bias tape where the ends meet. Pin the marked areas in place. Sew a few stitches into the crease at each of the marks. Fold down the excess bias binding. Sew the rest of the bias binding as desired for your project.

Your course syllabus is the sheet of paper that lists each session’s topic and required reading. Look over the titles, units, and other information listed in the syllabus to find clues about how the course’s larger themes fit together. Ask yourself, “How does the syllabus organize these facts and figures? Does it mention or hint at any key critical questions? What connections does it make between individual class sessions?” You can make a study guide or outline once you’ve looked over your syllabus and gotten a feel for how the class organizes information. Use the syllabus as a guide to structure and consolidate your study guide.  Your study guide won’t do you much good if it simply copies your class notes. Look for key themes in your class notes, pull out the essential information, and put it in your outline. For example, if you’re outlining class sessions on the Wars of the Roses, you could list key members (along with their dates and titles) of the houses of Lancaster and York in one section of your study guide. Then, you could outline underlying causes of the rivalry between the houses. Finally, you could list key battles and their dates, temporary truces and how they broke down, and the conflict’s resolution. When studying history, charts, drawings, and maps are sometimes the best way to visualize how the information fits together. In addition to being great study tools, making visual aids like timelines, family trees, and flow charts will help give you a bird’s eye view of the material. For example, making family trees and a timeline would come in handy if you’re trying to prepare for an exam on the Wars of the Roses. Your teacher is there to help you! If you’re not sure what they are looking for, ask them. For example, ask them what the exam's format will be, what the unit's main theses (or key ideas) are, and what information is most important.

TL;DR in English: Read the course syllabus to identify overarching themes. Synthesize information by making an outline or study guide. Create a chart or map to make connections between facts. Ask your teacher for help.

Have all of your facial supplies ready so you're not scrambling around hot water while the steam escapes. You can easily set up your steam facial in the kitchen (nearest the hot water) or the bathroom. You'll need:  A kettle Water 3 to 7 drops of essential oils A thick clean towel A large basin or bowl Fill the kettle with clean water and bring it to a boil. Pour the boiled water into a heat safe bowl or basin. Add your essential oils to the water. Take care when pouring the water or moving the bowl. If you boil the water in the microwave, make sure to place a wooden spoon, utensil, or chopstick into the water. This prevents the water from super-heating which can cause an explosion. Place the basin on a table so you can sit in a chair and lean over the steaming bowl. With your head over the basin, place the towel so that it's draped over the back of your head and completely over the bowl. This will prevent steam from escaping. Be careful not to lean too close to the hot water. Deeply breathe in the steam for 5 to 10 minutes, or as long as the steam lasts. If you need to, you can re-heat the water to get it steaming again. You can reuse the water until it boils dry, adding more essential oils only if you add more water. Since the steam opens your pores, you'll need to rinse your face with cold water when you've finished the steam facial. Cold water acts as an astringent which closes the pores. To further moisturize your skin, apply lotion as soon as you're done with the facial.

TL;DR in English: Gather your supplies. Prepare the water. Lean your face over the bowl or basin. Breathe in the steam. Rinse your face.

Be a good role model for your sibling by doing well in your studies and following through on your commitments at home. Your sibling will likely take notice if you are diligent about doing well in school and are also able to keep up with your responsibilities at home, such as sports practice or household chores. Working hard on your own needs and responsibilities will allow you to also be a good mentor to your sibling, as you will have enough of a grip on your own life to support your sibling. Don't be afraid to fail in front of your sibling. Your sibling may respect you more if you show them you are human. It will also make you seem more relatable and honest. Another way you can be a good role model for your sibling is to try to maintain an active and healthy social life. Being able to connect with a group of friends can set a good example for your sibling and show them how to be social around others. If your sibling is struggling to make friends and connect with others, ask them to hang out with your friends for a night. This will help them feel included and allow them to learn how to be social by following your example. Be respectful when your parents speak to you and be polite when you are around other elders, such as your teachers or your friends' parents. Maintaining a good relationship with the elders in your life, from your parents to your teachers to your mentors, will help you develop into a good role model. It will also demonstrate the importance of respect for your elders to your sibling. A good role model is willing to admit when they are wrong and make a sincere apology for their mistake. If you make a mistake, you should be ready to apologize and acknowledge your misstep. Do this in front of your sibling to show them the value of an apology and the importance of being humble and honest, even when you are wrong. This will allow your sibling to understand that it is okay to make mistakes and that it is essential to acknowledge them so you can move past them.

TL;DR in English: Do well in school and at home. Maintain a healthy social life. Demonstrate respect for your parents and your elders. Apologize and acknowledge when you are wrong.

Before starting your ancestry search, speak with relatives to gather as much information as you can about your family history. Get as much specific information as you can (i.e dates, locations); conducting a genealogy search with names alone will be very difficult. Ask relatives for any relevant primary documents they might have (or copies of them) to aid in your research. Be sure to give proper care to any old documents you have or receive from relatives. Keep them clean, store them in a cool, dry place, and handle them with gloves if possible. Consider contacting a conservator if the documents are in bad shape (e.g. moldy or torn documents) and need to be repaired. To preserve family records, digitize your documents, being careful not to damage them while copying and scanning. Digitizing documents generally means scanning and saving them as PDF files on your computer or storage drive. Purchase a scanning software if your computer doesn’t already have one installed (e.g. Adobe Acrobat). For the best results, use a scanner that scans in color and accommodates large documents. Before starting your own genealogy search, check to see if anyone (i.e. a distant relative) has published a genealogy and family history of your family. There are many websites where you can search published family histories (e.g. the Library of Congress catalogue). Be sure to use any publications you might find as a reference point for starting your research, and not as an irrefutable source of information; being published does not guarantee accuracy, so be sure to double check sources, look for reviews from credible genealogy journals and newsletters, and search for documents related to the information provided.

TL;DR in English: Interview your relatives. Preserve and record old documents. Search published genealogies.

When you cut your bias binding for the project, make sure that you cut a little more than you will actually need to cover the edges. This will allow you to sew the edges together in a way that will hide the ends of the bias binding. For example, if your project calls for 20 inches (51 cm) of bias binding, then cut 21 inches (53 cm) to ensure that you will have enough to hide the ends. Make sure to sew the bias binding edges first. You need to sew the ends under the rest of the bias tape to hide them, so it is necessary to secure and fold over the ends before sewing any other parts of the binding. The ends of the bias binding will be raw, so it is important to hide these. With the right sides of the bias binding and fabric together, pinch the ends of the bias tape together to identify where they will meet. Use a piece of chalk to mark the areas where the right (front) sides of the bias binding meet. After you have marked the bias binding, place a pin on each end to hold the pieces together where you marked them. Make sure the pin goes through the ends of the bias tape and the fabric underneath it. To secure the bias binding together where you have marked it, use your sewing machine on the straight stitch setting to sew a few stitches into the crease up to the areas you have marked on each side of the bias binding. Do not sew across the bias binding pieces. Make two separate sets of stitches. Be careful not to sew through the pins and remove them as you sew. After the bias binding is secured at the ends, fold down the excess bias binding on the ends. Fold each end towards the rest of the bias binding and away from the stitches you just made. This will ensure that the bias binding will be hidden under the rest of your seams. After you finish securing the ends of the bias binding, sew the rest of the bias binding as desired for your project. You can either sew the bias binding single-sided, so that it will be hidden under one side of your project , or you can sew the bias binding double-sided so that half of the...

of every day. In order for your hair to stay soft and smooth, it needs the natural conditioning of sebum, the oil that your scalp produces to keep your hair strong. If you wash your hair every day, you rinse away this nourishing oil, leaving your strands feeling dry and coarse instead of smooth and silky.  Find the washing routine that’s right for you. Some people do it 2 or 3 times a week, while others wash every other day if their hair is especially oily. If your hair looks or feels greasy in between washed, apply dry shampoo to the roots. Massage it in to your scalp, then gently brush your hair to distribute the product. It might be hard to wash your hair in ice-cold water, but if you want silky, smooth hair, make it as chilly as you can take. Cold water helps the hair shaft lie flat, so when it dries it has a smooth, shiny appearance. Hot water has the opposite effect, creating frizz and drying out your hair. Sulfates are found in many cleansers, including dishwashing detergent, laundry detergent, and more. Sulfates are effective and washing away oil and grease, but using this ingredient on your hair can be too harsh, causing frizz and damage to your hair. Look for sulfate-free shampoo that will cleanse your hair without stripping away its protective oils. Conditioner helps hair stay smooth and silky by moisturizing it and keeping it tangle-free. Look for a conditioner that will keep your hair smooth without weighing it down. Silicone-free conditioner is best, since silicones build up in your hair and cause it to look dull after a while. Opt for a product that has glycerin in it, instead. Trimming off the dry, coarse ends of your hair will keep it looking lighter, smoother, and softer. Aim to get regular trims to remove split or damaged ends. You don’t need to hack a ton of hair off each time, simply trimming 1 inch (2.5 cm) or so should do the trick. Cotton pillowcases can absorb moisture from your hair, leaving it dry and dull. Swap out your pillowcase for silk one, or wrap your tresses in a silk scarf...

TL;DR in English: a few times a week instead of every day. Use cold water when you wash and rinse your hair. Use sulfate-free shampoo. Opt for a moisturizing conditioner. Trim your tresses every 6-12 weeks. Sleep on a silk pillowcase or use a silk scarf at night.

For the index card, you'll need to fold it hotdog style, or longways. From the folded edge, make two initial incisions on the left and right sides. Leave a little bit less than an inch for the index card's strips. Starting from one of the slits, cut parallel to the folded edge.  You'll want to make the cut a little less than an inch down from the folded edge. Starting from the unfolded edge, cut upwards towards the rectangle you just removed.  Again, you'll want to space these slits a little under an inch. Now continue your cuts, alternating sides, until you reach the other end of the index card. Carefully unfold the paper.  This will feel like you're opening up an accordion.  You should be able to fit through the index card.

TL;DR in English: Fold the card in half. Cut initial slits. Remove the center. Flip and cut. Flip and repeat. Unfold the index card.

Once the sock bun is secure, you can go to sleep with it in and let it sit overnight to curl your hair. You can also do the sock bun in the morning, wear it all day, and take it out in the evening when you’re ready to go out.

For this project, you may use any size frame you like. Flip the frame over and carefully take off the back. Take out everything from the frame except the glass. If your frame comes with a backing that fills the entire frame, you may skip this step. If not, you can create your own insert out of cardboard. Measure, mark, and cut a piece of cardboard that will fill the entire picture frame. You will cover this insert (or the original backing) with fabric or wrapping paper. If you are using fabric, run a warm iron over the material. This will remove any wrinkles and creases. Cut a piece of fabric or wrapping paper so that each side is 2 inches (5.08 cm) longer than the corresponding dimensions of the backing. Place the fabric or wrapping paper wrong side up on a flat surface. Position the cardboard insert or original backing in the center. Fold the extra material over the insert/backing and attach it to the back with tape. Place the backing/insert in the frame and close the frame. Hang your memo board on a wall or place it on the table. Write your first memo with a dry erase marker.

Pick a number of songs that cover a wide expanse of notes from low to high. Then, spend some time daily mimicking these songs by humming to them. As you hum, concentrate on feeling the vibrations in your face as you go into the lower notes.  Place your hand gently against your face or throat to concentrate on actually feeling the vibrations. If you don’t feel any vibrations, keep practicing. Intermixing humming with singing might help, too. Many people speak with chest voice instead of head voice. To get the notes into the low range, start by speaking the words in your lower register. This can put your vocal chords in the right position. After saying the words, sing the same words. Your vocal chords should be at the correct spot to sing in the lower register. As soon as you start to dip into a low note, pull the mic closer to your lips. This will help to create a deep, amplified sound. When you head into a high note, move the mic away from your mouth to get a clear sound. The mic should not be touching your lips or you’ll potentially end up with sputtering noises. For some people, it helps to curl your lips upwards just a bit when singing low notes. This lip placement can encourage you to open your mouth and throat up more, which can create a deeper sound. Experiment with exactly how much to smile. If you do too much, it can weaken your tone and be hard to hold intact. Similarly, lifting your eyebrows may improve your sound as well, but that’s not as certain.

TL;DR in English: Practice humming for 15 minutes each day. Try speaking out the lyrics or notes. Move the mic closer to your mouth. Move into a slight smile.

In the French language, the “e” sound is more open with the tongue low. To produce a convincing French accent, stretch your "e" sound to make it as long as possible. For example, "recorder" can sound completely transformed as "rgreh-caw-der". ” When you say a short "i" sound, you turn it into something more like an "ee". For example, "fish" will sound more like "feesh," but do not make it any longer than you would "fish.” Typically, the “i” is shorter in length than it is in English. Keep your production of this vowel short and precise. A helpful hint is to remember to smile when you produce “i” in words. This helps you to pull your lips apart to say the long “ee” sound. To make your French accent more convincing, say the “u” sound with the lips out and rounded. Your lips should be a lot tighter than a normal English production of “u.” You’ll want to practice by puckering your lips and keeping them rounded while you product the “ee” sound. This is the French “u.”  For example, the word “you” with a French accent might sound slightly more like “yee.” But don’t exaggerate that “ee” sound too much, because your lips should still be rounded. When you are pronouncing words with “u,” make sure it is very short. The French “u” is not a long vowel sound. In French, vowels are typically pure and short. This means that French speakers do not need to move their tongue around when talking as much as English speakers do. When you’re pronouncing vowels, keep your tongue down near the bottom front teeth. Let your lips, jaw, and nose do most of the work.

TL;DR in English: Produce “e” sounds with the tongue lower in the mouth. Pronounce “i” like the “ee” in “see. Say “u” with your lips puckered tightly. Reduce tongue movement and focus more on lip placement.

Although you should avoid being overly talkative, initiate conversations with your crush to show that you're interested in their life. Come up with interesting subjects that engage the both of you. Be sure that you give them a chance to express their opinion. Don't hesitate to ask questions about their life, as most people enjoy talking about themselves.  Ask things like, “How did you do on the biology test?” ”What shows are you watching right now?” ”What do you think about the new teacher?” Try not to be offended if you get short answers or they don’t seem that interested in talking to you. They might be shy or having a bad day. It can be easy to want to talk about your day or what you are thinking about, but make sure you pause long enough so that your crush can contribute to the conversation as well. If you ask a question, take a short pause to let them speak. Or, if you are done talking, pause for a few seconds in case they have a topic that they want to bring up. If your crush is shy, they might have a hard time talking back to you. Try to be understanding, and don’t take it personally. Although you shouldn't overdo it, treat your crush with kindness. If they don’t have food to eat for lunch, offer to share your food with them. If they tell you about something bad that happened to them, sympathize and listen to what they say. Show that you care about them and their well-being. Some playful meanness is a good flirting technique, but your overall interactions should be kind so that they don’t get the wrong idea. Although you shouldn't stay in the spotlight for too long, it's a good idea to share some facts about your life with your crush so that they can get to know you more. Tell them things about you, like your hobbies and your favorite class, that will let them know more about you as a person. You may even discover common interests, which may open the way for more conversations.  Say things like, “I love going swimming at the community center.” ”What did you think of last year’s English class? That one...

If you do not have one, you can ask your mom whether you may go over to your buddies house (that is in your class) and maybe play a studying game, but be sure to get the needed studying done. Everyone learns differently, and for some, talking out loud helps cement ideas into your head. Discuss sample test questions or homework problems with each other. Take turns asking each other questions, or quizzing each other on vocab words. Set the timer and see who can finish filling in their worksheet/writing their notes the fastest. The slowest person loses. However, this method might not be the best method as it isn't always fair - some people would rather take their time. For example the first person to leave without finishing their assignment isn't allowed to go to the upcoming school formal. Pretend you're a character from TV or Broadway etc - or make up your own character. Physically turn your notes into a script and memorize your 'lines' by talking it out loud, over and over again. Then when you memorize the entire script, talk out loud as you would if you were your chosen character. You could even use funny accents if you like, you could even sing it Broadway-style. If you're really confident, you can perform the skit in front of friends, teachers, parents etc...and make them laugh! It helps if you are a tactile learner (you learn by touching) or a verbal learner (you learn by talking). It seems a bit crazy at first but when you think about it, it actually works, especially if you do it with a friend. By looking at it this way, it doesn't seem like boring study at all! Do something fun, such as watch TV or play video games or a board game.

TL;DR in English: If you have an older sibling at home, you can study together so you have company. Talk out loud. Quiz each other. Race against each other. Invent crazy punishments to motivate you and your friends if you just can't be bothered studying. You can create a scenario and make a short play or skit with a friend. Study in the same place quietly, and take a break every half hour or hour.

Go ahead and plug in the hot rollers so that they're fully heated by the time you're ready to put them in your hair. If this is your first time using your set of rollers, read the manufacturer's instructions to make sure you use the equipment properly. Keep in mind that a hot roller set usually comes with a few different sizes of rollers and you will need to use all of them to cover your head. If you want to use only 1 size of rollers, then you may need to buy multiple mixed sets to have enough. Start with completely dry hair, since your hair won't hold curls if you use this method with wet hair. Spray your hair all over with hairspray, which will help define your curls as the hot rollers go to work. It is also important for your hair to be dry since wet hair can steam and this may result in a burn on your scalp. Use a comb to separate your hair out into 4 even sections. You should have 1 on top of your head, 1 on the back center of your head, and 1 on each side of your head. Use a clip to secure each of these sections until you are ready to put in the hot rollers. If you have very thick hair, then you may need to divide your hair into 6 or even 8 sections for hot rolling. Starting in the front, lift up a section of hair that is no wider than the roller. If you have long hair, then you may need to grab a smaller section to ensure that the rolled hair will not be too thick on the roller. Wrap the end of it around the first roller, moving up towards the roots. Roll your hair back towards the crown of your head so that the front of your hair pulls away from your forehead and over the roller. Secure the roller in place with a roller pin of the appropriate size. Continue rolling your hair until you've rolled the entire middle section of hair.  Roll your hair in different directions if you don't want uniform curls. Roll some sections of hair forward and some sections of hair backward. This will result in curls that look more natural. For small, tight curls, be sure to use the smaller rollers in your set. Use medium...

Insert your pliers into the pump or hose. Then, latch the end of the pliers onto the item clogging your drain. Slowly begin to tug the item out of the pump or hose.  Go slowly so that you don't break up the clog or damage the pump. It’s possible that a clog inside your pump is wrapped around the spinning mechanism inside the pump. It’s usually easier to remove a clog from the hose. It should slide out easily if you just pull. Feel below your machine to find a small pulley that’s directly below the pump. This pulley will turn the spinning mechanism inside the pump. As you pull a clog out of the pump, turn the pulley counterclockwise to help unwind the clog.  Turning the pulley will help you avoid damaging the pump. If turning your pump counterclockwise isn’t helping, try turning it clockwise instead. Detach the pipe and hold 1 end while you place the other in a bucket. Insert the end of the plumber’s snake into the hose. Ease it deeper into the pipe until you reach the clog. Then, use your hands to manually turn the snake as you push it through the clog. You should see the clog drop into the bucket. After you remove the clog, water that was stuck in the pipe may pour out into the bucket. Slide the hose back over the opening on your pump, then secure it in place. Check to make sure that it isn’t loose. Otherwise, the hose may leak while the machine is on. Make sure that you haven’t created any kinks in the hose while you were working on it. If there are kinks, it could prevent your washer from draining. Test out your machine before you put the panel back on it. First, lower your machine back onto the floor if you lifted it. Next, put the power cord back into the socket. Then, set your washer on the rinse cycle and turn it on. Let the washer run through a rinse and spin cycle to see if it drains. If it’s still not draining, it’s possible there’s a clog you can’t get to or that the pump is damaged. It’s best to get a plumber or handyman to look at it. Unplug the machine again before you replace the panel. Then,...

TL;DR in English: Grasp a visible clog with needle-nose pliers to pull it out. Find the pulley under the pump and twist it to help unwind the clog. Use a plumber’s snake to remove a clog from a hose. Reconnect your hose to the pump after you’ve removed the clog. Plug up your machine and see if it works. Replace your access panel if your machine is fixed.

This kind of cream works by preventing melanin from being produced in the skin. It's one of the most popular lightening treatments. However, if the concentration is too high or if it's used for too long, it could worsen the discoloration or reverse the effects. It can also be toxic to the liver. Some alternative, fading creams that are known to have less side effects are azelaic acid, kojic acid and one containing only 2 percent hydroquinone. All of these are known to help with persistent or residual skin discoloration problems. They work by preventing keratin, a hair protein, from being produced in the skin. This is a mix formulated by the medical professional doing the treatment. Due to the concentration of bleach, dermatologists and medical doctors are the only ones allowed to administer it. If the darkening is caused by waxing, shaving, and/or you can see dark hair stubble as it's growing back, then laser hair removal may be a good solution for you. Though it's considered semi-permanent, the hair usually doesn't come back. However, you have to make sure to complete the recommended number of treatments and the ongoing, but infrequent, touch-ups.

TL;DR in English: Ask the doctor about using a skin bleaching cream containing hydroquinone. Talk to your dermatologist about a milder skin bleaching treatment. Find out from your doctor if you're a good candidate for using a bleaching agent, such as chlorine, to lighten the areas. Opt for laser hair removal.

Use a fabric measuring tape to measure your waist. Then add one inch to this measurement. The total will be the length of your elastic.  For example, if your waist measurement is 28, then you will need to have 29 inches of elastic. If you are making the dress for a child, try to use a two-inch (5.08) wide elastic. If you are making the dress for an adult, try to use a three-inch (7.62) wide elastic. Black is the most popular color, but a white elastic might look cute against a black skirt. Use a ½ inch (1.27 centimeter) seam, and knot the ends of the thread. Snip off any excess thread when you are done sewing. Turn the elastic so that the seam is facing you. Use your iron to press the two edges down. They should be facing away from each other, and rest flat against the elastic. Topstitch them down.  Be sure to knot the ends of the thread, and to snip any excess off. This will help prevent the elastic from fraying. It will also give you a nice, clean finish on the inside. A sewing machine will give you the cleanest finish, but you can also use fabric glue to tack the two edges down instead. The seam of the elastic should be on the inside. The waist/top hem of the skirt and the bottom edge of the elastic should be overlapping by ¼ inch (0.64 centimeters). Keep in mind that you will not be flipping the skirt inside out. You want to have the entire waistband visible when you are done sewing. Make sure that you stretch the elastic as you sew to ensure that it will be evenly sewn onto the felt. This will allow your waistband to stretch better. Keep sewing until you get to the end of the elastic. When you are done sewing, you should have a sleek waistband for your skirt. Your poodle skirt is now ready to wear!

TL;DR in English:


Use an online tool. Try non-invasive measures. Try semi-invasive and invasive procedures. Seek treatment. Recognize normal hair loss.

Sketch a trapezoid with the following measurements: left side of height b, right side of height a, and base of length a+b. Simply connect the tops of the left and right sides to complete the trapezoid. Divide the base of the triangle into lengths a and b so that two right triangles of lengths a, b, and c is formed. The third triangle will have two sides of length c and a hypotenuse of length d. The two smaller triangles are congruent (identical). The area of a trapezoid is: A = ½(b1 + b2)h where b1 is one straight side of the trapezoid, b2 is the other straight side of the trapezoid, and h is the height of the trapezoid. For this trapezoid: b1 is a, b2 is b, and h is a+b.  The area of this trapezoid is A = ½(a +b)(a+b) .  Expanding the binomial yields: A = ½(a2 + 2ab + b2). The area of a right triangle is: A = ½bh where b is the base of the triangle and h is the height. This trapezoid has been broken into three different triangles; therefore, the areas need to be added together. First, find the area of each one and then add all three together.  Because two of the triangles are identical, you can simply multiply the area of the first triangle by two: 2A1 = 2(½bh) = 2(½ab) = ab. The area of the third triangle is A2 = ½bh = ½c*c = ½c2. The total area of the trapezoid is A1 + A2 = ab + ½c2. Because both of these calculations are equal to the total area of the trapezoid, you can set them equal to each other. Once they’re set equal to each other, you can reduce the equation to its simplest form.   ½(a2 + 2ab + b2) = ab + ½c2. Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the ½: (a2 + 2ab + b2) = 2ab + c2. Subtract out the 2ab: a2 + b2 = c2. You’re left with the proof: a2 + b2 = c2.

TL;DR in English: Draw a trapezoid with base a+b and sides a and b. Divide the trapezoid into three right triangles, two of which are congruent. Calculate the area of the trapezoid using the area formula. Find the area by summing the areas of the three triangles. Set the different area calculations equal to each other.

Having a fear of hospitals is a very common phobia. There are many reasons that people might be scared to enter these buildings. For example, some people are afraid of blood. Others might fear being separated from friends and family during a procedure.  Reflect on what it is that you actually fear. Are you nervous about procedures that can cause pain? Do you have a fear about not waking up from surgery? Figuring out what you are scared of is the first step in finding ways to cope. Identify your particular fear and acknowledge it. Admit your fear to yourself. Try saying, "Hospitals make me anxious because I worry about being around sick people." There is a difference between getting nervous around hospitals and having a phobia. Having a phobia can be as debilitating as any physical ailment. Pay attention to your symptoms so that you can figure out whether what you are coping with is nerves or a more serious disorder.  Generally, people with phobias will experience physical symptoms when having an attack. That means that when you are near or in a hospital, your body will react in a certain ways. Phobias cause different reactions in everyone. Some common symptoms are heart palpitations, chest pains, and dizziness. You might also experience nausea or difficulty breathing. Feeling weak and having "fuzzy" vision are also common symptoms. Many people who have a phobic condition have to cope with panic attacks. A panic attack can cause frightening emotions and physical reactions. Understanding panic attacks can help you cope with your fear or phobia.  A panic attack makes it very difficult to think rationally. During an attack, it can be difficult to separate reality from things that are not actually happening. For example, a panic attack might cause someone to feel like they are having a heart attack. It can also cause you to lose control of your emotions. If you have experienced a panic attack, it is a good idea to consult a medical professional. This may indicate that you are dealing with a phobic condition rather...

TL;DR in English: Figure out your main fear. Identify your symptoms. Understand panic attacks. Keep a journal.

Seeing your crush with another guy is not a good feeling, especially if you had no idea she was with someone else already. You thought you had a chance with her and suddenly you realize that you don’t. Your first instinct might be to panic or even get angry. Getting upset is a normal reaction. You might find yourself breathing very fast or holding your breath when this happens. This can make your anxiety a lot worse, unfortunately.  Take a moment to focus on your breathing.  Breathe slowly and deeply. If it helps, close your eyes for a moment. Inhale while counting to five, then exhale while counting to five. The more you look at her with someone else, the more it will hurt. It’s going to be hard, but force yourself to look away. If you don’t, you might start getting visibly upset, which will make you feel even worse. If you're staring, she might notice and get uncomfortable. Her boyfriend might also notice and get angry. You'll feel better if you focus on something else.  Pull out a book or your class notes and focus on reading. Even if you’re too upset to read, do what you can to keep your eyes on the page. If you’re not in class, pull out your phone and text a friend or play a game. This isn’t always going to be an option, but if you can, get up and leave the room. Try to do this as calmly and naturally as you can. Keep your pace normal as you head for the door. Find a quiet place where you can have a moment of privacy. Your thoughts will probably feel really negative at first. You might feel angry at yourself, or not good enough. This is normal.  For every negative thought you have, try to immediately follow it up with a positive one. For instance, you might think, “He is way more popular than me and better at sports, too. Of course she likes him over me.” Try to counter this with a positive thought right away. You could think, “But I’m popular, too. I have lots of friends. Maybe I’m not good at sports but I’m good at other things.” One of the best ways to cope with this situation is to immediately track...

TL;DR in English: Breathe. Look away. Get out of the situation. Find a friend to talk to.

Make a list of all of your best qualities. Maybe you’re good at sticking up for your friends, or you really light up when you talk about something you care about, or you’re a good listener, or you make people laugh. There are many different ways to be attractive. If you’re having trouble thinking of positive things about yourself, ask your friends or family. You can tell your friend what you value most about them, and then ask them what they value about you. The key to feeling confident about yourself isn’t thinking that you’re great at absolutely everything. Instead, remind yourself about the things that you’re good at and accept what you’re not good at. Natural self-confidence and self-love are magnetic.  For example, say to yourself: “I know that I have a hard time in school, but nobody’s perfect. What I’m really good at is being a loyal friend, and that’s a wonderful thing.” Or: “I know that I have trouble with my temper, but I’m always honest and I work hard, and that’s really special.” If you struggle a lot with feelings of self worth, consider talking to a therapist. Every day, take a shower, wear deodorant, and put on clothes you like. You’ll look your best and feel your best if you put in attention to smelling clean and looking well-groomed. If you look like you take good care of yourself, you'll be much more attractive. You’ll look like much more of a catch if you go out and do the things you love. Working on your hobbies is not only personally fulfilling, but it makes you a much more interesting dating-prospect, and you’ll have things to talk about with your crush. Developing your own hobbies can remind you of your own self-worth and boost your confidence. Aim to exercise for about 30 minutes a day. Exercising boosts your physical and mental health, and can make you feel more confident in your body. It also gives you a bunch of endorphins that make you feel happy. There’s no need to be super buff to impress a girl, but working out a reasonable amount shows that you take care of yourself, and makes...

TL;DR in English: Brainstorm your best qualities to remind yourself of your worth. Use positive self talk to embrace your talents and accept your flaws. Groom yourself well to boost your confidence. Devote time to your interests and hobbies. Get into a fitness routine to boost your confidence. Try to see her as an equal instead of putting her on a pedestal.

If you're unsure which hair loss scale to use to measure your baldness, you can try using an online tool. Many websites have hair loss calculators that help you diagnose your level of baldness.  Usually, the tools will allow you to put in basic information such as your age and whether or not baldness runs in your family.  The tool will also allow you to select your level of baldness, based on visual aids provided as well as multiple choice questions.  The tool will give you a level of baldness and suggest treatment options. However, you should never undergo any hair loss treatment without first consulting your regular physician. A doctor can advise you on the best ways to measure your hair loss if standard scales do not work for you. Your doctor will probably go over non-invasive measures first.  Your doctor might have you take a daily questionnaire, where you choose answers from a series of multiple choice questions regarding your level of hair loss. While questionnaires are easy and non-invasive, they are highly subjective and may not provide you with an accurate measure of hair loss.  Daily hair counts involve collecting strands of hair in a bag and counting them at the end of the day. Most people lose about 100 strands of hair a day and if you're losing more you may be at risk for baldness.  In a standardized wash test, you refrain from shampooing your hair for five days and then shampoo and rinse your hair in a basin with the hole covered by gauze. You will collect the hairs and send them to your doctor for evaluation.  Global photography involves photographing hair with special equipment at a doctor's office, equipped with lighting and magnification to assess hair loss. This is a more precise level of evaluating hair loss than other non-invasive measures. If your doctor think you're at a high risk for hair loss, she might recommend trying invasive or semi-invasive procedures to evaluate hair loss.  A hair pluck test, known medically as a trichogram, involves taking hairs from specific parts of the scalp...
