If you really want to sweet talk a girl, then you have to make it pretty clear that you're into her. This doesn't mean that you should tell her how hot you think she is the second you've met, but it does mean that she has to see that you're into what she's bringing to the table. Don't be too rude, look around the room, or make her question your motives. Once she knows you're into her, it's up to you to win her over with your words. Don't worry if you're normally shy about talking to girls. If you act confident when you approach her and are sweet to her right off the bat, she'll respond in a positive way and will make you more relaxed about talking to her. Don't make it too obvious that you're sweet talking her. Don't say, "Hey, baby, what's up?" Or, "What are you up to, hot stuff?" Or she will want to pull away. Just come right up to her and say, "Hey, what are you up to?" Or, "Hey, I'm _____, what's your name?" You don't need a smooth pick-up line or to make a big deal about the fact that you're talking to a cute girl you like. Make it feel natural, like you're already friends, and take it from there. If you act too nervous, formal, or excited about talking to her, you may make her feel a bit nervous, too. The more relaxed and easygoing you are, the better she'll feel. Sweet talking a girl can have its limits. If you want to sweet talk her, then you have to stay respectful about not overstepping any boundaries or making her feel uncomfortable. If you don't know her that well, or even if you do, you should avoid saying anything overly sexual or vulgar because she will instantly want to pull away. Instead, respect her boundaries both by not crowding her or sitting too close to her and by not making any comments that are just too raunchy and that can be interpreted the wrong way.  Don't compliment her breasts, butt, or any parts of her body that are off-limits. If she starts talking raunchy, you can up the ante a bit, but don't just start off this way. An important part of sweet talking a girl is making her...

TL;DR in English: Don't be shy about how you feel. Keep it casual. Be respectful. Give her your full attention.

Sometimes the easiest and fastest way to locate a discontinued product for sale is the most obvious, a quick Internet search. If you are looking for a certain make, model, shade, or version of a product, include those words in your search terms. For example, if you're looking for nail polish from the company Pure Ice in the discontinued shade First Time, Google "pure ice first time nail polish." If there is a seller on Amazon, eBay, or many other retail websites that has this product listed, it is likely to appear at the top of your search results. These sites provide private sellers with a way to sell their own stock of discontinued merchandise.  While Googling the product's name is likely to turn up results at these websites, the search engine's algorithm means that its not always reliable, so it is best for you to conduct separate searches at each website. Compare prices and products available. Depending on the discontinued product you are looking for, there might be a large range. For example, on eBay you can find Burt's Bees discontinued products from $3 to $40. Don't just buy the first one you see; often sellers know that brand loyalists will be willing to pay more for discontinued items and jack up their prices to take advantage of your desperation. Shop around to find the best price. Online retailers offer discontinued products in specialty areas including beauty products, electronics and plastic goods. Look for sites such as Discontinuedbeauty.com or Buymebeauty.com for beauty and health products, and Discontinuednomore.com for electronics, fragrances, china and other items. Grocery stores and large retailers such as Walmart and Target often keep areas of the store dedicated to discontinued items, which are often marked down to clearance prices. Look for endcap displays (located on the end of each aisle), orange or red clearance sticker prices and advertisements that certain items are discontinued. Stock up on what you want. Ads in newspapers and online will promote products for sale that are...

TL;DR in English: Google it. Visit websites such as eBay and Amazon. Search sites that specialize in discontinued products. Shop in stores. Scan classified advertisements. Use social media.

Insulin administration using a syringe and needle is still one of the most common methods people use to take their insulin.  Start by making sure you have everything you need, including your insulin syringe and needle, alcohol pads, the insulin, and a sharps container nearby. Remove the insulin vial from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before it is time for your dose to allow the insulin to reach room temperature.  Check the dating on your insulin vial before you proceed. Do not use expired insulin or insulin that has been opened for more than 28 days. Dry them completely with a clean towel.  Be sure your injection site is clean and dry. Clean the area with soap and water if needed before you begin.  Avoid wiping the area with alcohol. If you do wipe the area with alcohol, give the area time to air dry before you administer the dose. Many people use more than one type of insulin. Look carefully at the label to be sure you have the correct product for the scheduled dose.  If the insulin vial is in a container or has a cover, remove it and carefully wipe the bottle with an alcohol wipe. Let the bottle air dry, and do not blow on it.  Inspect the liquid inside. Check for any visible clumps or particles floating inside the vial. Be sure the vial is not cracked or damaged.  Insulins that are clear should not be shaken or rolled. As long as they remain clear they can be given without mixing.  Some types of insulin are naturally cloudy. Cloudy insulins should be gently rolled between your hands to mix them properly. Do not shake the insulin. Know the dose you need to administer. Remove the cap from the needle, taking care not to touch the needle with your fingers or to any surface in order to keep it sterile.  Pull back the plunger of the syringe to the same mark as the amount of insulin you intend to remove from the vial.  Push the needle through the top of the vial, and push the plunger to inject the amount of air you just put in the syringe.  Keeping the needle in the vial and the syringe as straight as...

TL;DR in English: Gather your supplies. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Inspect your insulin. Fill the syringe. Avoid putting more than one type of insulin in a single syringe. Give your injection. Pinch the skin. Inject your dose using a quick dart-like motion. Place the needle and syringe into a sharps container.

Bring along the whiskey bottle or mason jar you'll use to age the whiskey. You need to shorten the wood so that it'll fit inside the jar. Split the wood into a thin stick. The wood will expand during the aging process, so don't be afraid to cut the wood very thin or even break the stick into a few strips.  White oak is used by professionals to age whiskey. If you can't get oak, you can try another non-poisonous, chemical-free wood such as maple, cherry, or birch.  Get fresh oak from brewing supply stores and home improvement stores. Old oak can also be scavenged sources such as old furniture. Take protective precautions by wearing gloves and goggles. Hold the wood in place over the open flame. The temperature you use will change the flavor the wood gives the whiskey. 250-360℉ (121-182℃) creates a sweet, oaky combination. 380-480℉ (193-249℃) leads to a vanilla, toasted flavor. Char the wood until it appears black and shiny on all sides.  You can also bake the wood before you char. This can help you get the right flavor profile without depending on charring at the right temperature. Simply let the wood bake in an oven at the desired temperature for 3 hours before charring.  Brewing supply shops also sell pre-charred oak chips. Wait for the wood to feel cool to the touch. Keep on the protective gloves or pick up the wood with tongs to protect yourself. Rinse the wood under lukewarm water. Wipe down the wood with a cloth to remove ash and other debris that could get into the whiskey. Place the ingredients into the mason jar or simply add the wood to the whiskey bottle. An average, unaged whiskey works best here. Opt for whiskey of proof 115 or higher, if possible. Higher proof whiskey tends to age better and is used by whiskey companies in their products. Now you must wait for the whiskey to age. Ideally, store the jar in a place where the temperature changes, such as outdoors. Warm days and cool nights cause the wood to change size. Keep the jar out of direct sunlight. At home, you can leave it in a closet, a...

TL;DR in English: Split a piece of oak into strips. Char the wood with a blowtorch or grill. Wash off the wood. Combine the wood and whiskey. Store the jar in a dark place. Test the whiskey weekly.

Determine if the distance between your two tick marks is too long to match up to the bar scale. In this case, you can either take several measurements with the bar scale to get the total, or use a ruler or tape measure instead.  To use the bar scale for a longer measurement, place the right tick mark on the farthest number on the primary scale. Make another mark on your paper where the extension scale ends on the left, and note this distance. Use your new mark as the right tick mark and measure using the bar scale as normal. Add this to your previous number to get the total distance. If you are measuring the distance between your tick marks or 2 points on a map using a ruler that is not long enough, try a tape measure for more length. Determine if the route you want to measure has multiple points or takes the shape of a curve rather than a straight line. In this case, take multiple straight line measurements and add them together.  Use a piece of paper to mark the distance on the map. Measure several straight lines along the curved routes and add them together. For the greatest accuracy, measure a greater number of smaller straight lines along a curved route. Determine if your map indicates the distance from the edge of the map to another popular destination not shown—like a town, highway or junction. Add this distance to a straight line measurement from your other point to the edge of the map.  Use a piece of paper or a ruler to measure the distance between point A to the edge of the map. Add the distance the marginal information of the map gives to the desired town or highway to get the total distance. Be sure that your units of measurement are the same before you add the two distances.

Stick with fall planting. Choose large containers with drainage holes. Fill the container with good soil. Place the container in full sun. Plant the bulbs pointed-end up. Pack the soil on top. Water thoroughly.

Any driver violating traffic law will be held largely responsible for a resulting car accident. If one of the drivers is issued a citation for speeding, running a light, or another violation, he or she will likely be at fault. If no police are present to issue citations, judge for yourself whether an obvious infraction has occurred. Consult local traffic laws, as these may be different from state laws.  Insurance companies can always choose to disagree with police findings when determining liability. You should always call the police to the scene of an accident. Police and insurance companies can rely on several different types of evidence when determining fault in an accident. Generally speaking anything relevant can be introduced as evidence.  Photos of the accident can help establish what happened and the extent of the damages. Witnesses statements, while less reliable, can help explain what happened. If several people corroborate each other, then this can help solidify a case. Police reports provide an impartial view of what happened at the scene. However, unless the police officer witnessed the accident, it is based on the evidence they collected at the accident.  Video cameras (private and public) may show what happened in an accident. The physical evidence from the accident will also play an important role in determining fault. This includes damage to the vehicles, skid marks, paint on a car, etc. In most cases, a driver who hits another car from behind is at fault. Likewise, a driver making a left turn is most often blamed for any accident that results from this turn.  Although these situations are common, they are not always the case. Make sure that you consider the full situation to make a determination of fault and not just whether the driver rear-ended another or was making a left turn. For example, if a driver slammed on his or her breaks without justification, that driver may be at fault if another driver rear ends him or her. Similarly, a driver making a left turn on a green arrow obviously...

TL;DR in English: Note any traffic citations or violations of traffic law. Consider evidence relevant to the accident. Decide whether the accident is the result of a rear-end collision or a left-hand turn. Record any comments made by the drivers after the accident. Consult witnesses about how the accident occurred. Consider whether either driver was negligent before the accident.

Getting outside and getting some fresh air will help to pass the time and it can also help to relieve stress. Try taking a quick walk around your neighborhood or office building. Even if you only have 10 minutes, going out for a quick walk is a great way to pass the time. Not only it is healthy for you, but it helps to pass the time.  Try inviting a coworker or friend to join you on a walk to make it even more enjoyable. For example, if you are working, then you could take your break in the form of a walk with a coworker. You can even bring a cup of coffee, tea, or any other drink along with you to enjoy along with the fresh air and conversation.  You can also walk around indoors if you cannot get outside. Take a lap around your office or desk at work, or walk back and forth down your hallway.  If you are at school or work and cannot go outside to take a walk, then you can exercise without attracting too much attention to yourself, such as by fidgeting and clenching various muscles. You can do this at your computer, sitting in front of the tv, or just in your bedroom. If you’re stuck on a plane or train for long periods, try doing leg extensions or arm stretches. If you’re a woman, you can also do Kegel exercises. . At first, it might not make the time go by faster, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to enter a "timeless" state. Your mind is what keeps track of time, and meditating is about clearing your mind.  You can find a guided meditation recording on YouTube to help you if you have never meditated before. You can even meditate while doing active things, such as running. Try choosing a mantra to repeat and focus on as you go about your day. If meditation doesn’t suit your restless mind, try daydreaming instead. Visualize yourself in an exciting place, story, conversation, or anything else that holds your interest. You can also try to breathe deeply. Slow, deep breathing is calming and centering, and might actually get you to enjoy your current situation more than you thought possible. Try...

TL;DR in English: Take a walk. Meditate Take a nap Write in a journal or start a blog.

If you notice any spots around the back of your braid that look loose or in danger of falling out of the braid, then you might want to reinforce them with a couple of bobby pins.  To use a bobby pin, open up the bobby pin and then slide it over the loose piece and connect it to some of the hair on your scalp. You will probably need a couple of bobby pins for each loose strand. It is okay if the braid looks messy with a few loose strands near the front, but you don’t want it coming undone completely. If your braid looks a little thin, then you can gently tug on the sides of your braid to widen it. Start near the top the braid and grab a couple of pieces on opposite side of the braid and pull them apart slightly. Do not pull too hard or you may undo part of the braid. Just pull enough to make the braid look a little wider and looser. If you want your Katniss braid to last all day, then finish it with an all over mist of strong hairspray. Spray the braid, back of your head, sides, and loose pieces.  Make sure that you close your eyes and hold the can about 12 to 18 inches from your head.

TL;DR in English: Add bobby pins to secure any loose back pieces. Tug the sides of the braid to widen it. Spray on some hair spray.

Visualization is powerful. The brain's response to imagined scenarios is often on par to its response to real life success and failure. If you want to overcome a fear, it can be helpful to make a point of habitually visualizing yourself succeeding. However, try to keep your scenario realistic. Imagine yourself overcoming your fear in a manner that could actually happen.  Say you're afraid of public speaking but need to speak at a seminar for work. Avoid seeing yourself give an impassioned, bombastic speech and being met with a standing ovation. While your presentation might go over well, such a response is unlikely.  Instead, imagine things going reasonably well. Picture yourself staying calm and collected while in front of the room. Imagine your heart rate remaining relatively stable and remaining calm. Picture yourself not stumbling over the words and answering questions as they come without too much hesitance. If visualizing the end result (such as giving a presentation at a seminar) itself is still terribly overwhelming, break down your visualizations to follow your preparation. In this way, giving a successful presentation will be much easier to envision, because you have already completed so many steps successfully that will help you get prepared and be successful.  For instance, visualize yourself completing all your research and preparing your notes. Once you have completed this step successfully in real life, visualize yourself delivering the presentation to an empty room, and then do so. Move on to visualizing a strong presentation in front of a trusted friend or colleague, someone who is supportive and will give constructive feedback on things you can work on to improve your speech. Then go ahead and do this step in real life. Finally, visualize giving the presentation successfully at work, starting a day or two before the presentation if possible. Using this method, you work up to the final result, increasing your confidence along the way. When you have to deal with something that frightens you,...

TL;DR in English: Be realistic. Try visualizing your success gradually. Visualize your success. Go into detail. Provide yourself with physical reminders.

Regardless of whether you keep the containers indoors or outdoors, you should still plant the bulbs in the fall once you notice leaves dropping from the trees in your neighborhood. Fall planting allows the bulbs to develop their roots and makes it easier for them to follow their natural growing cycle. You may want to consider keeping the containers in a cool location during the winter. Allium bulbs actually thrive when they are allowed to cool down during the dormant season. You do not need to keep the containers outside, but storing them in a garage, basement, root cellar, or shed works well. The container you use should be about five to six times deeper than the diameter of the bulb. It should also be wide enough to allow 6 inches (15 cm) of free space in between the bulb and all sides of the container. There should be at least four moderately sized drainage holes at the bottom of your container. Use a drill to create holes if necessary. Allium bulbs will rot if they are forced to sit in waterlogged soil. Most commercial potting mediums work well enough, but you should opt for one that feels fairly light over one that feels heavy and dense. Keep in mind that allium bulbs do not have many nutritional needs, but they do need well-draining soil. Dense soils that retain moisture can cause the bulbs to rot. Allium bulbs can grow in partial sun to light shade, but they thrive in areas of full sun. Place the container in a spot that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.  Large amounts of sunlight will help the alliums develop strong stems, and strong stems are more likely to support large blooms. If your container is too large to move, make sure that you position it in your desired location before adding the soil and planting the bulbs. If you are able to move your container, move it to different areas of the house or garden throughout the day so that it receives as much sunlight as possible. Roots grow from the rounded end of the bulb and a stem emerges from the point, so you need to make sure...

Beyond being unsightly, mold in your bathroom can contribute to health problems. Fortunately, getting rid of mold is not difficult. Add 1/2 cup (118 ml) of white vinegar to your toilet bowl or spray it directly onto mold. Then, scrub mold away with a toilet brush. Another tried-and-true product for removing mold is ordinary bleach. Add 1/4 cup (59 ml) of bleach to your toilet bowl, or spray diluted bleach directly onto mold. Then scrub mold away using a toilet brush. A less commonly-used, but still very effective product for removing mold is tea tree essential oil. Add 10 drops of tea tree essential oil to your toilet bowl or spray a tea tree oil solution (5-10 drops of oil to a bottle of water) directly onto any moldy spots. Scrub with a toilet brush. If left to sit for too long in your toilet, all 3 of these products could potentially damage the inner-workings. As such, it is important to flush these products out of your toilet system. After scrubbing with any of these products, be sure to flush the toilet at least 3 times.

TL;DR in English: Use white vinegar. Apply bleach. Try tea tree oil. Flush your toilet at least 3 times.

Before beginning, it's a good idea to take a few moments to wash your hands with soap and water or an alcohol-based sanitizer. Washing your hands kills bacterial and other harmful microorganisms on them. Since this method for cleaning the nebulizer doesn't use any soap, you won't want to accidentally transfer these onto the nebulizer by cleaning it with dirty hands. See How to Wash Your Hands for tips on getting your hands as clean as possible. If you have a germ-sensitive job (e.g., healthcare worker), you may want to use the more conservative WHO guidelines for hand-washing. Most nebulizers consist of a mask or mouthpiece, a section of tubing, a few connecting pieces, and a compressed air machine. Gently take these pieces apart from each other. You only need to clean one or two pieces, not the entire machine, so don't leave them connected unless your nebulizer does not come apart.  Most nebulizers come in one of two varieties: atomizer jet and ultrasonic. Atomizer jets, the more common variety, use compressed air to disperse your medicine, while ultrasonic nebulizers vibrate the liquid medicine with soundwaves to make it into a vapor. While these two nebulizers use different mechanisms to operate, they both use similar mouthpiece/tubing setups to disperse the medicine, so the cleaning instructions are virtually identical for both.  Some nebulizers (like, for instance, smaller portable models) may have slightly different configurations. In these cases, do your best to remove the pieces that can be removed. Nearly all nebulizers will have some sort of mouthpiece or mask — this is the most important thing to remove and clean. Run some warm (not hot) water. Rinse the mouthpiece and any T-shaped connecting pieces that attach to it under the water for about half a minute to one minute, making sure that every part of these pieces gets rinsed. Do not rinse the tubing or the compressed air machine with water. The tubing is difficult to dry and the machine itself is not intended to be cleaned this way. You can,...

TL;DR in English: Wash your hands. Take the nebulizer apart, if possible. Wash the cup or mouthpiece with warm water. Let air dry. Put the machine back together and store. Optionally, wash pieces in soapy water at the end of the day.

Making sales takes a special set of skills, and it’s hard work. Still, you don’t want to suggest to your force that the job is impossible. Always speak in encouraging tones about progress. That will make your team want to strive for continued success. If a team is having trouble making sales, it’s often because they don’t understand or believe in their product. Taking time to explain your product and talk about its benefits to your team will help them make compelling pitches and complete sales. For instance:  If you’re selling clothing, talk about its durability or quality. Give team members a chance to try the clothing for themselves. They can then tell customers about their first-hand experience. If you’re selling home solar panels, spend time talking to your team about how much this can save consumers on power bills, how efficient the product is, and so on. Specific data will give your team something concrete to talk with customers about. Taking some time to congratulate and reward your salesforce for doing well will be greatly appreciated. Just make sure that if you’re recognizing individual employees, you have concrete reasons for doing so. This will stop other team members feel like the employees are being unfairly recognized.  For instance, you could have a running policy of recognizing any team member who exceeds their quota by 10 percent or more. Recognize individual employees in whatever ways seem appropriate. You could use an employee of the month plaque, or take them out to lunch, for instance. You could also recognize the team as a whole, for instance, if it exceeds its quarterly quota.

TL;DR in English: Set a positive tone. Train your force to have confidence in your product. Recognize your team members when they do well.

After determining your skin tone, decide what shade will look best on your skin. If you have a neutral skin tone, any shade will probably look good.  For warm tones, dark browns, warm browns, chestnuts, rich golden browns, auburn, warm gold and red highlights, and golden blonde shades will look best on you. Go for colors with a red orange or gold base; those will look good on you. Avoid blue, violet, and ash based hair colors which will wash out your skin color. For cool tones, try shiny raven-wing blacks, cool ash browns, or cool blondes in shades ranging from mink to platinum and icy white. Avoid gold, yellow, red, and bronze tones in hair color. These warm tones have a tendency to make you look washed-out. You also may be able to wear many exciting bold, unnatural hair colors like lipstick red, cherry red, blue, and burgundies. Do you have light, medium, or dark skin? This is important when determining what color hair is right for you.  With paler skin, lighter shades work. For light skin and warm tones, try butterscotch, strawberry blonde, or honey. For light skin and cool tones, try platinum, flaxen, or champagne blonde. Medium skin provides more versatility. Medium skin and warm tones can go tawny blonde, golden caramel, or copper. Cool tones with medium skin should try ashy tones, such as sand, wheat blonde, and walnut brown. Olive skin looks great with rich browns or earthy shades. Cool tones should try auburn or cinnamon, while warm tones can go with ebony brown and mocha. For dark skin and cool tones, go for espresso and inky black. For dark skin and warm tones, try maple brown, mahogany, or toffee. Eye color can determine whether a hair color looks good on your or not. Do you want your eyes to pop? Green and blue eyes might look great with reds, brown, or blonde, while dark eyes might look great with a contrasting color. The extent to which you want to change your hair color impacts your choices. Do you want to keep your hair looking natural? Or do you want to go completely opposite? Do you want to...

TL;DR in English: Choose a shade based on your skin tone. Factor in the shade of your skin. Think about your eyes. Decide if you want to go natural or drastic. Decide if you want to use permanent, semi-permanent, or temporary dye. Don't make emotional drastic changes. Use the Internet to help find the right color for you.

You need to think carefully to determine why you feel the need to start a new life. There are many valid reasons why you might do so, but there are also reasons that aren’t so helpful.  For example, if you’re a new empty-nester facing life without kids in your house for the first time in decades, you might appropriately think it’s time to start a new stage of your life: You aren’t a primary caretaker for your children anymore and can reframe your life to focus more on you. On the other hand, using a life change to escape unpleasant feelings isn’t a good idea, since this avoidance doesn’t address the real issues you may be having. Emotions tend to follow you wherever you go. You have to deal with them before you can start a truly fresh life. Major life events, such as getting married,a death in the family, a loss of a relationship or job, graduating high school or college, or a change in your financial or health status, moving to a new place, or becoming pregnant, can have a profound effect on your emotions. Some of these may make you happier, while others can trigger stress, depression and/or anxiety. If you have just experienced a major life event, keep in mind that your judgment may not be functioning at its best, and consider waiting to make any major decisions intended to turn your life around. If you have just experienced a major loss, allow yourself time to grieve it. Mourning is a necessary process of examining and processing your feelings of grief and adjusting to life after your loss. You don’t have to feel rushed into changes or pressured to “get over it” right away. To make sure that starting your new life is as effective as you hope, think about your past patterns. You want to make sure that you’re making this change from the right motivations, not as a way to run from your past. Running away from problems doesn’t ultimately fix them.  For example, do you have a habit of trying to “move past” or escape adversity as soon as it comes up? Research suggests that the necessary process of growth comes...

TL;DR in English:


Be cautious with the eyelid prong. Stop using the tape if it irritates your eyelids.

Many are accustomed to picking up dogs as if they were human babies by putting one hand under each of the dog's "armpits." However, this is unsafe for dachshunds. This puts an unnatural stress on the dog's back — the spine simply isn't built to support his long body without any other support. In general, you will want to avoid any sort of hold that supports only half of the dog's body length. This is true even if the dog is already standing on one set of legs — like, for instance, if he is propping himself up on his hind legs while looking over the top of a sofa. In this case, you'll want to lean down so that you can support his rump before picking him up. As noted above, dogs should be set down gently, not dropped. A dachshund's legs are very short compared to other dog breeds'. This means that they can't bend very far to absorb the shock of hitting the ground, which puts most of the impact stress on the leg joints and back. Getting rid of the dog's "fall" eliminates this danger. Don't trust your dog's body language here. Dachshunds don't know that their skeleton can't support falls, so they may be perfectly willing to jump out of your hands. Even if this doesn't cause them immediate pain, it can lead to painful problems if continued in the long-term. Dachshunds' long, slender spines are especially vulnerable to injury, which is why it's so important to keep their bodies straight when you pick them up. You will definitely want to avoid any activities that put a twist or bend in the dog's back, as this increases the stress on it and can contribute to conditions like slipped discs. For example, one way you might accidentally do this is by scooping the dachshund up suddenly when he doesn't expect it. If you startle your dog, he may wriggle or twist out of one of your hands, putting an unnatural bend in his spine as he hangs. Make sure your dog is calm and aware of you before you attempt to pick him up. Dachshunds, like all dogs, are generally pretty smart about letting you know when they are in pain. If your...

TL;DR in English: Don't pick up a dachshund by his upper body. Never drop the dachshund back onto the ground. Never make a dachshund bend or twist when you pick him up. Don't ignore any signs of distress from the dog. Show family and friends how to hold dachshunds properly before letting them play.

" Place the bales onto the pallet on their sides with the cut side up. Line them up evenly, side by side, until you fully cover the pallet with a single layer of bales. If stacked properly, the strings will be on the sides, rather than the top and bottom. This allows for better air circulation. When a bale is on its side, the hay stems should run vertically. The top of the bale will feel sharp and jagged. " The second layer needs to be placed perpendicularly to the first, with all the bales placed width-wise. This time, the strings will be on the top and bottom rather than on the side. You can usually put them loosely in their spot and kick them firmly into place, especially if it's a tight spot. You can also shove the bale in with your knee, which would be safer. Make sure the bales are packed in as tightly as possible.  Tightly packing the bales helps prevent unstable stacks. The orientation of the bales (cut side up) allows for circulation.  If your bales are still green, pack them in a little more loosely. Alternating the direction allows for good air circulation and results in very stable stacks. Changing the direction each time locks the bales in together, almost like puzzle pieces, with great stability. This is the simplest and easiest way to stack hay. Vertically, the bales will form four-bale columns, and between these columns, the stack can collapse. If your stacks are four bales or fewer, this won't be as much of an issue. Cover the pallet with the first layer, then start building stacks from the corners toward the middle. Make sure to keep the corners or each new stack perfectly lined up with the corners below to assure stability.

TL;DR in English: Stack the bottom layer "cut side up. Stack the second layer "top side up. Tuck your bales tightly together. Continue alternating the direction for each layer. Do four layers total for the most stability. Fill the pallet to capacity.

Before you start writing, you should have a general idea of what you want to write about. While you don’t need the specifics yet, try writing down your idea in a single sentence. By limiting your grand aspirations to a single line, you can refine story and focus your main conflict.   You don't want to have a topic that causes people to cease reading your novel within five seconds. An action novel should introduce conflict as soon as possible so the reader is hooked. Come up with a protagonist that readers will want to root for. Make them relatable so the audience connects with them right away. Make sure you have a new perspective to write about. You don't need to come up with a story idea that no one has ever heard of before, but you do want to tell your story with your own unique voice. In action novels, it is a good idea to know the different types of weaponry, vehicles, and technology that will be used throughout the book. You should familiarize yourself with the application and practicality of various guns, military services, survival techniques, computer programs, and combat styles. This will make your writing more precise, and it will help you hammer out those tricky action scenes later.   Places you can use for research include museums, libraries, and archives. If your book involves technical knowledge, try contacting an expert about the subject area. University websites, newspapers, and government agencies can be a good source of information on who to contact. While it is good to research as much as possible, you don’t need to include all of your research in your book. Too much information will overwhelm the reader.  Decide what is necessary as you write your novel. Maybe your story is a globetrotting adventure, or maybe it is set in your hometown. If you are able to, try visiting the locations you plan to write about. During your visit, record important details about the scenery. What is the climate like? Where are the major streets and landmarks? Engage all of your senses: what does it smell like?...

TL;DR in English: Write down your idea. Research. Travel to similar locations. Mind map Write an outline. Write your story on notecards. Use the snowflake method. Draft profiles for each character. Keep an idea journal.

The eyelid prong is an essential tool for applying eyelid tape, but it is always important to use caution when putting any objects near your eyes. Make sure that you only use the eyelid prong on your eyelids and press very gently when you do so. If you experience any discomfort while using the prong, then remove it from your eyelid immediately. Eyelid tape contains adhesive that is formulated for use on your eyes. However, it can still irritate your eyes. If you experience any irritation from the strips, remove them and wash away the adhesive immediately. When looking for eyelid tape, find a brand that is hypoallergenic to reduce the chances that it will irritate your eyes.

Wash your bite with soap and warm water. Use ice or a cool compress to relieve pain and swelling. Apply hydrocortisone cream to relieve the itching. Use calamine lotion as another option for itch relief. Use aloe vera to relieve pain and itching. Take an antihistamine to reduce itching. Use NSAIDs to reduce pain and inflammation. Don’t scratch your bite. Expect the bite to take about 2 weeks to heal.

No quickly constructed shelter will help you from winds at this strength. Instead, go to a basement, or failing that to a room near the center of a building with no windows. A shelter is usually not the best option for an earthquake, although you can prepare in other ways. Earthquake survival is based on two main strategies:  If the tremor is mild and there is a relatively open space outside (no tall buildings), walk to it through the nearest exit. Do not use elevators. If the tremor is violent or you cannot reach an open space safely, drop under or next to sturdy furniture and hold on. If you own a house and are committed to disaster preparation, dig out a basement or dig a bunker. Stock this with emergency supplies in case ordinary services are disrupted. You can also get a FRS or ham radio (you need a license though) for communication. An underground bunker is your best bet for protecting yourself from radioactive fallout. In general, the safest areas are indoors, with as many walls and thick furniture between you and the outdoors as possible. Insulating the walls with as much dense material as you can find will protect you further.Seal all vents using duct tape and try to close all doors.

TL;DR in English: Identify hurricane or tornado shelters. Come up with an earthquake plan. Construct a long-lasting shelter. Learn how to survive nuclear fallout.

Some optometrists feature frames in their office. They may fit your lenses in these for free or at a discounted rate. Before shopping around, you should know if their rate for bringing in an outside pair of frames will put the glasses out of your price range. It seems that the best prices will be at specialty or discount frames shops. However, you may find that the difference between these shops and your optometrist is negligible. After the fee for fitting your lens, warranties, and other considerations, you may be better off picking frames from your optometrist. If you only use your glasses minimally and at home, you may not feel the need to have a big insurance plan. Determine if you need to be able to get your frames repaired for free when comparing costs. There may be specialty frame shops that sell products much different than those offered by your optometrist. They may also be discounted enough that it vastly outweighs the benefits of picking a pair in your optometrist’s office. Don’t limit yourself to the prices and stock of one shop when picking out new frames.

TL;DR in English: Figure out your optometrist’s rates for fitting your lenses. Look at optometrist’s prices for frames. Look at other eye-care centers in the area for frames.

There are times for hugging, and times for keeping your hands to yourself. First, understand why you are hugging this person: perhaps you are greeting a dear friend; perhaps you are comforting someone who's crying; perhaps you are trying to share your feelings for a crush or a partner. No matter the context, a good hug should feel natural. Wait for a break in the conversation, or a transition, or a poignant moment. Consider these scenarios:  A break in the conversation could be any moment when time seems to pause. You can take advantage of these moments, if you've been meaning to hug someone. You don't need a reason to hug someone, but your hug should be in context. It should feel natural to initiate a hug at this time. A transition could be anything that begins or ends an interaction. You might hug your friend when you meet her, or hug her when she leaves. Hug to mark that something is beginning or ending. A poignant moment could be any experience in which you and another person (or people) have shared powerful emotions. Hug a friend after he shares a deep and emotional story; hug your sister when her boyfriend or girlfriend breaks up with her. Use hugs to acknowledge that a moment was significant and bring it to a beautiful end. Create a safe and gentle space. Open your arms wide, and try to keep a warm smile on your face. Use your body language, your facial expression, and your general demeanor to invite the person into your arms. Make this person feel like he or she is the only person who matters right now. Your body language should funnel the person into your embrace. Step toward him or her to make the invitation more clear. Look your hugging partner in the eyes, and watch her face to make sure that she is open to being hugged. If the person steps forward to meet your embrace, then he or she has accepted the hug. It's time to enter hug mode.  Wait for a cue. If you aren't sure, wait until the person you want to hug extends his or her arms. This is a safe strategy – but you may also consider how much you...

TL;DR in English: Know when to hug. Be welcoming. Open your arms to signal that you want to hug. Consider announcing your hug. Be genuine. Determine your hugging style.

With the shemagh completely open, match one corner with the corner diagonally opposite from it, folding the square in half and into a triangle. This style is not necessarily the most practical, nor is it especially traditional, but it can be a casual and trendy way to wear a shemagh. The folded edge of the shemagh should cover your nose and mouth. Two corners should appear on either side of your face, and the other corner should drape down in front of your face and over the top part of your neck and chest.

TL;DR in English: Fold the shemagh into a triangle. Wrap the fabric over the lower half of your face.

You should always do this after suffering an insect bite. The soap cleanses the area and reduces the risk of infection. It will also wash away any saliva that the insect left on your skin. Wrap the ice pack or compress in a piece of fabric and then hold it against your skin for up to 15 minutes at a time. You can use ice or a compress a few times a day for the first 2 days after you receive the bite. You can find 1 percent hydrocortisone cream over-the-counter. When applied to the bite, it’ll relieve itching. Follow the directions on the packaging to make sure you use it safely.  Talk to your doctor before using the product on children under 12 or if you are pregnant or nursing. Only apply the cream to the welt itself, not the skin around it.  Do not use hydrocortisone cream for longer than 7 days unless your doctor tells you to. As an alternative to hydrocortisone cream, you could dab calamine lotion on the bite. Shake the lotion, then apply a dollop to a cotton pad. Dab the cotton pad over the welt.  Be sure to follow all instructions on the bottle. Talk to a doctor before using calamine lotion on children under the age of 12 or if you are pregnant or nursing. You can use calamine lotion as much as needed for up to 7 days. If your symptoms haven't improved by then, check with your doctor. Aloe vera is a natural treatment that can help with the pain and itching caused by insect bites. Simply dab a small quantity of the gel onto the welt. You can purchase aloe vera at most drug stores or online. Make sure that it does not have any other ingredients. For example, don’t use a body lotion that contains aloe vera, as this will probably not help your bite. Diphenhydramine (Benadryl) is a great option, but you could also try a non-drowsy alternative. The antihistamine will reduce your body’s reaction to the bite, which relieves some of the itch. However, it may also cause drowsiness.  Talk to your doctor before taking an antihistamine. Always follow the dosage instructions on the packaging. Keep in mind that some...

You may have a new investment and want to know the Annual Rate of Return based on a number of days, not months. Let's say you have held the investment for 17 days and earned 2.13%. In this case to calculate the exponent to use, you will divide 17 (the number of days you held the investment) by 365 (the number of days in a year). The answer is .0465753.  Convert 2.13% interest rate to a decimal by dividing 2.13 by 100 = .0213. Your formula will look like this: ((1+0.0213)^1/.0465753) – 1 = Annual Rate of Return. ((1.0213)^21.4706078)-1 = 1.5722717 - 1 = .5722717. Convert this to a percentage by multiplying this by 100 = 57.23% annual rate of return. You can't assume that just because you earned 2.13% in a number of days or months that you will be able to earn that same amount the rest of the year. Stock earnings go up and down every day but you will be able to make a general projection.

TL;DR in English: Calculate the Annual Rate of Return using days. Plug the numbers into the formula. Use caution when annualizing returns.

The traditional nun's outfit is black, but some orders use different colors. For example, some orders use dark blue, gray, or light blue. Other orders don't use dresses at all, but skirts and blouses instead. This article will focus on the traditional black nun dress, but if you are basing your nun after a different order, you should use those colors instead. A black graduation gown would work especially well, but you can use an actual dress too. Choose one with a simple cut and minimal seams. Ask your friends or neighbors for clothing that you can borrow. You can also find similar dresses in thrift stores. Some nuns pair long skirts and long-sleeved shirts together. Depending on the order, the shirt will either be white or the same color as the skirt. Like the dress, the skirt should be long, and not too tight. Unless your order wears a different color, the skirt should be black.  A turtleneck or a button-up blouse will work, depending on the order. You want something that is between a pencil skirt and an A-line skirt in terms of fullness. Avoid full-circle skirts. Fortunately, nuns wear very simple clothes, so this should be an easy project even for a beginner. Go to a fabric store and find a pattern for a simple long-sleeved dress; Biblical costume patterns may also work. Cotton, linen, or polyester will work the best. Do not use shiny fabric like satin or silk, or fancy fabric like brocade or velvet. The color needs to be solid, without any patterns. Make sure that the fabric is clean; nuns may be simple in their attire, but they are also neat and clean. This goes for both store-bought, assembled, and homemade costumes.

TL;DR in English: Research the different types of nun uniforms. Find an ankle-length, loose-fitting black dress with long sleeves. Consider a skirt and blouse ensemble. Sew your own dress if you want a DIY costume. Choose plain, clean fabrics.

Generally speaking, one can invest in gold stocks in three different ways: you can buy stock in gold mining companies directly; you can buy gold exchange-traded funds; and you can buy gold mutual funds. There are pros and cons to each of these methods. Buying mining company stock allows for direct, albeit high-risk, exposure to gold mining, whereas mutual funds and ETF's offer lower risk and better diversification. The most direct way to invest in gold stock is to buy gold-mining companies directly. This is both the highest-risk and highest- reward method. Investing in a mining company means you're placing a bet on that company's ability to be profitable, as opposed to spreading your investment over a wide range of firms. Thorough analysis of the company is essential, because you need it to perform better than its peers.   When selecting a gold mining stock, it is important to look for a few things. Look at production costs. Gold producers have little purchasing power, so being able to produce gold at a low cost is an essential advantage. This information can be located on the website of the mining company by clicking on "Investor Relations" and then looking at the annual or quarterly earnings report. Look at production. A strong company should be able to increase its production annually. Strong production means both higher revenues and lower costs. See the company's annual report for an indication of production growth. Often companies will  present this information in chart form. Look at the company's debt compared to that of its peers. The best way to look at debt is using the debt/equity ratio, which compares what a company owes to what it owns. This information can be found on websites like Morningstar.com. The lower the ratio, the better. Look at the valuation of the company. How expensive is a dollar of one company's  earnings compared to another's? Compare price-to-earnings ratios, which divide share price by earnings. This information can also be found on websites like Morningstar.com, and once again...

For a ginger plant, it’s best to use a wide, fairly shallow pot. That’s because the plant’s roots grow horizontally rather than vertically.  A pot that's approximately 12-inches (30-cm) wide and 12-inches (30-cm) deep is usually a good option for ginger. Make the pot deeper if you are putting gravel in the bottom for better drainage. Make sure that your pot also has good drainage holes, so the roots don’t become waterlogged. You should have a fairly deep saucer to place underneath the pot to catch the water that drains. Once you’ve selected your pot, add potting soil to it. It’s important to choose a soil that drains well so the ginger’s roots remain healthy.  Look for a potting soil that contains sand, which provides air space that helps the water drain out more easily. Perlite and vermiculite also help create air space for better drainage, so you can use soil mixes that contains those ingredients as well. An all-purpose soil-free mix is also good for ginger plants because it contains a high amount of organic material, such as peat, but also features sand, perlite, vermiculite, or a combination of all three that helps the soil drain effectively. To grow ginger in a container indoors, you need a living ginger root. You can purchase one from a garden supply store, nursery, or seed company. If you have a friend or neighbor with a ginger plant, you can also ask for a root cutting.  Make sure that the ginger root that you choose is plump and firm. Its skin should be tight with several eye buds on it. Eye buds are similar to the eyes that you’d find on potato. When you’ve gotten a ginger root, fill a small bowl with warm water. Place the root in the water, and allow it to soak for at least 8 hours or overnight. Soaking the root helps stimulate germination, which is particularly important if you’re using a store-bought root. After you’ve filled your pot, stick the ginger root in the soil. Make sure that the root’s eye buds are pointing upwards when you set it in the pot. If you’re planting more than one root in...

It’s easy to simply keep on wearing your glasses without worrying too much about your prescription over time. However, almost everyone’s eyesight naturally weakens over time. Even if you don’t think your prescription needs to be changed, schedule yourself an eye exam every one or two years at the very least. If you’re over sixty years of age, or have complications with your eye health, yearly checkups are especially important. You’ll likely start by sharing any frustration or discomfort you’ve experienced when speaking with your optometrist. However, it’s important to mention anything that you’ve noticed about your vision since you last saw your optometrist, even if it doesn’t seem too significant.  Note things like, “I’ve realized it’s harder to see things that are moving quickly, like a tennis ball.” If you’ve been experiencing headaches, be sure to mention where they occur in your head, and what you’re usually doing when the headaches occur. One of the benefits of getting regular eye exams is taking advantage of new technologies. This applies to both assessment equipment, as well as actual eyeglasses.  In fact, improvements in lens design are somewhat frequent, and more and more types of lens are becoming available.  Especially if you tend to use your glasses for one thing in particular, or notice issues with your vision during certain types of activities, ask your doctor something like, “Is there another type of lens I should try considering what we’ve talked about?” In fact, you may find that your prescription is fine, but that a different type of lens will give you even better vision.

TL;DR in English: Get an annual eye exam. Be specific about any observations. Ask about new technologies.

The first thing you need to do to make your own apple shisha is to prepare the tobacco by breaking it up into strips.   The tobacco serves as the base ingredient that holds everything together. As well as the main ingredient for smoking. American Spirit loose tobacco works well, but you should feel free to try any type of loose leaf tobacco to get the flavor you want. Cheaper loose leaf pouches like Drum also work. Pipe tobacco can also be used for a more smokey flavor, but will be harsher than regular tobacco. Make sure your tobacco has dried out before preparing it. If it is moist, expose it to open air to let it dry out for a few hours or overnight. Once dry, break up any large pieces of tobacco in a Tupperware dish. Take out any spines that may be present on larger leaves. Then, you may want to chop the leaves with a knife if you have whole leaf tobacco. Once the leaves are chopped and broken up into smaller bits, you need to soak the tobacco.  Soaking the tobacco makes it pliable and removes some of the nicotine and takes out some of the harsher tobacco flavors. The longer you soak the tobacco the less flavor you will taste. Less tobacco flavor allows you to taste more of the apple. Pour cool water into your Tupperware. Use enough water so that you can mash the tobacco down under the water level. Mash the tobacco down so it really soaks. Soak the tobacco for at least 30 minutes. If you soak longer than 30 minutes, change the water. The water will turn brown from the tobacco and nicotine.   Alternatively, you can boil your tobacco, then rinse it several times with cool water. Once you have soaked the tobacco to your liking, strain it to remove the water. Let the tobacco dry a bit. Then add either honey or molasses.  Before adding your honey or molasses you will want to let the tobacco dry somewhat. Mash it up into a ball and squeeze any moisture out. Like you would if you were wringing out a wet rag. Honey and molasses are fairly similar but will yield slightly different results. Honey won’t flavor the...

Waxing removes the hair from the root, and can give you two or more weeks of hairlessness. It can be painful, however, so visit a beauty salon to have it done for you if you don’t think you can do it yourself. Waxing is only effective if the wax can stick to the hairs, so wait until the hairs on your upper lip have grown to a quarter of an inch (0.6 cm). If you aren’t willing to let your hairs grow long enough to do this, use another method, such as bleaching. Visit a beauty supply store or drugstore and purchase a home waxing kit. Make sure it specifically states it can be used on facial hair. You can either get spreadable wax or ready-made strips that already have wax applied. The ready-made strips are the tidier option, though they are sometimes less effective. Cleaning out your pores and removing built-up dead skin cells will make it easier for the wax to pull the hair from the follicle. Scrub your face with an exfoliating wash, or use a normal face wash and scrub with a washcloth. Other ways to minimize pain include applying numbing creams, taking a hot shower beforehand, and avoiding caffeine and alcohol on waxing day. Most waxes must be warmed up, but wax strips are sometimes the exception. Place the container of wax in the microwave and heat it for the recommended amount of time. Follow the instructions on your product carefully to avoid overheating it and burning yourself. Follow the product instructions for how long you should leave the wax on. Removing it too early may render it ineffective, and waiting too long is unlikely to make it more effective.

TL;DR in English: Choose waxing if you want a longer-lasting solution. Wait until hair has grown to a quarter of an inch (0.6 cm). Find a wax that is appropriate for facial hair. Wash your face with an exfoliating cleanser to minimize pain. Heat up the wax in the microwave if necessary. Wait the recommended time.

Even mild ear infections can progress quickly, so it's important to see your doctor if you have a combination of these symptoms. If you have fever along with other symptoms or you are in a lot of pain, you should see a doctor immediately if possible. Cleaning your ear allows the medicine to get where it needs to go. Your doctor may suction your ear out, or she may use an ear curette to gently scoop and scrape out your ear. Your doctor will most likely write you a prescription for antibiotic drops that include neomycin. If other options don't work, your doctor might also prescribe your ciprofloxicin, which is often a second-line agent. You will then use the drops in your ear to reduce the infection.  There is a very low risk of hearing loss from amino-glycosides, including neomycin.  This medicine usually given in combination with polymyxin B and hydrocortisone a solution that is to be applied to the outer ear canal 4 drops 3-4 times a day as long as prescribed. Neomycin can also cause contact dermatitis.  If your ear is too blocked, you may need a wick placed in your ear, which will help deliver the drops to your ear.  To use the ear drops, warm up the bottle in your hand first. The easiest way to put them in is to tilt your head to the side or lie down. Lie on your side for 20 minutes or place a cotton ball over ear canal. Do not touch the dropper or tip to your ear or any other surface, as that can contaminate the liquid.  If you have trouble getting them in the right place, ask someone to help you. Your doctor may also prescribe acetic acid drops, which are a form of vinegar. However, they are stronger than your average household vinegar. These drops help recreate your ear's normal antibacterial state. Apply these as you did the other ear drops. If your ear infection is more severe, especially if it's moved beyond the ear, you will need to take antibiotics by mouth.  Finish the entire course of antibiotics. You should begin to feel better 36 to 48 hours after starting treatment, and completely better in 6...

TL;DR in English: See your doctor if you're experiencing symptoms. Go to the emergency room or an urgent clinic. Expect the doctor to clean your ear. Use antibiotic drops. Ask about acetic acid drops. Take oral antibiotics. Ask about corticosteroids.

Prepare a baking sheet by spraying it with nonstick cooking spray. You could also grease the baking sheet with shortening or cover it with a layer of aluminum foil or parchment paper. Pour the contents of the can through a strainer to separate out the liquid. Rinse the chickpeas, still in the strainer, under running water for 30 to 60 seconds.  You could also drain the liquid from the beans using the lid of the can. Partially crack the lid open just enough so that liquid can escape but chickpeas cannot. Tip the can over a sink and let the liquid drain out through this gap. Drain out as much liquid as possible before opening the lid all the way. You can also add water to the drained can and swish it around to help rinse the beans. Place the lid over the can so that there is a small gap and pour out the rinsing water through this gap. Note, however, that proper rinsing through a strainer is still the recommended method. Lay the chickpeas out in between two layers of clean paper towels. Gently roll the chickpeas around with the top paper towel to remove any remaining, excess water and to peel off loose skins. Be careful as you press on the chickpeas, however, since you do not want to accidentally crush them by using too much force. Dump the chickpeas into a medium mixing bowl and drizzle the olive oil over them. Gently toss the chickpeas around with a mixing spoon or clean hands to coat them all in the oil. The oil will add flavor to the chickpeas, but it will also help them to develop a pleasant color and texture while roasting in the oven. Transfer the coated chickpeas to the baking sheet, spreading them out in a single, even layer. Make sure that the chickpeas are kept in a single layer. The beans need equal exposure to the heating elements in order to cook evenly. This should take about 30 to 40 minutes in your preheated oven. Pay close attention to the chickpeas as they cook so that you can remove them if they appear to be burning. Sprinkle the salt and garlic powder over the toasted chickpeas and toss them...

TL;DR in English:


Understand how it works. Choose a product. Determine the number of layers you need. Exfoliate your skin before getting sprayed. Visit a spray tan salon or hire a professional to your home. Touch up your tan every one to two weeks.

Even if you are a generous owner and purchase an aquarium that provides space and freedom, a turtle will still need additional room to exercise and play.  Remember that turtles are extremely active and, in the wild, cover lots of ground despite their unwieldy bodies.  If you plan to let your turtle out of the aquarium to walk around the house, make sure everybody is aware and that you provide some barriers to control the location of their exercise. This avoids any fatal accidents. While in the aquarium, you can place small fish or cuttlebones on top of the water and let your turtle “hunt” these items. The effort your turtle makes to swim and hunt these objects is a great source of exercise.   Live insects make tasty and hard to catch as well. Consider feeding your turtle mayflies, caddisflies, beetle larvae, crickets, grasshoppers, mealworms, and waxworms. Earthworms, blackworms, snails, clams, small frogs, and tadpoles are acceptable mollusks, worms, and amphibians to feed your pet turtle. Other natural fish that your turtle would enjoy chasing and eating are young goldfish, red minnows, guppies, and mosquito fish. Some turtles also enjoy playing. Although it is completely okay to pet and play with your turtle keep in mind that turtles are generally a kind of pet that is better to look at than to constantly handle. They will get stressed out. After all, they are not a dog!  Consider providing your turtle with an empty shell that they can slide across the floor with or place a small toy raft in their water that they can push along for fun. Train your turtle to eat from your hand. This takes some trust and familiarity but once some connection has been established between you and your turtle, try putting a piece of fruit on your hand. If your turtle enjoys this, then try placing the piece of fruit on your wrist so that you turtle has to crawl up your hand to get it. Try building an obstacle course. Design obstacles out of your turtle’s natural habitat – stones, sticks, plants, and water pits. Place a treat at...

TL;DR in English: Go outside and play. Provide live fish as a game. Give your turtle toys.

You’ll want to make sure your diet contains all the vitamins and minerals your body requires. Include at least five portions of fruits and vegetables in your diet every day to keep your body, including your kidneys, healthy.  Fruits and vegetables contain antioxidants, fiber, and assorted vitamins and minerals, all of which are essential elements for the correct functioning of your body. Consider swapping out one of your normal snack foods (e.g., a bag of chips) for a piece of fresh fruit or cutting a banana over your cereal every morning to easily increase the amount of fruit you eat in a normal day.  Only rely on fruit and vegetable juices for 1 of your 5 daily portions. The other 4 portions need to come from solid fruits and vegetables to get the needed health benefits. Eating too much salt impedes the correct functioning of the kidneys and can cause kidney stones. Eating too much sugar or saturated fats is also bad for your overall health and can lead to unhealthy weight gain, which is bad for your kidneys.  Swap out salty or processed snacks with fruits and vegetables or other healthy alternatives like unsalted nuts. Avoid fried and processed foods wherever possible. If you opt for low-fat foods, check to make sure they don’t have a lot of added sugar. A good trick when you are preparing food is to replace half the salt that you would usually use with other spices. Healthy fats and oils, like polyunsaturated fat and fish oil, contain vital nutrients that our bodies need and can help prevent disease. Add sources of healthy fats and oils to your diet to maximize the health benefits of the foods you eat. Oily fish, olive oil, dried fruits, and avocados are excellent sources of healthy fats, which are necessary to line and protect our vital organs. Kale and spinach are both green vegetables packed with vitamins A, C, and K, along with other helpful nutrients like potassium and magnesium. Eating more of these leafy greens can give you all sorts of benefits that help keep your kidneys, and your whole body,...

TL;DR in English: Eat lots of fruits and vegetables. Cut back on foods high in salt, sugar, or saturated fats. Eat more healthy fats and oils as part of a balanced diet. Incorporate more kale and spinach into your diet. Limit your portion sizes to avoid overeating.

Protecting the envelope from ice and moisture is essential, since these elements can cause it to warp. When an envelope gets wrinkled, it's a dead giveaway that it was tampered with. The very cold temperature in the freezer will cause the glue to lose its stick. You can keep it in the freezer for as long as you need to. Make sure it's in there for at least a few hours, or the glue might hold fast when you try to open the envelope.  In order for this method to work, you must use the freezer, not the refrigerator. The refrigerator's temperature isn't cold enough to make the glue unstick. If you don't have a freezer available, try placing the envelope in a plastic bag, then submerging it in a bowl full of ice water. This is quite risky, since a leak in the bag could cause water to flow inside and ruin the envelope and its contents. After a few hours in the freezer, you might be able to simply open the envelop with your fingers. If it doesn't easily pop open, use an envelope opener or a knife to gently open the flap. If the flap still won't budge, put the envelope back in the freezer overnight and try again. When you use the freezer method, the frozen glue loses its stick, but it gets tacky again when it thaws. To reseal the envelope, simply wait a few minutes for the envelope to warm up to room temperature, then press the flap shut. The envelope should now be sealed with no sign that it was ever opened.  If the flap won't stick when you try to reseal it, use a gluestick to keep it shut. If you don't have a gluestick, use a very light application of white school glue or superglue to close it.

TL;DR in English: Place the envelope in a plastic freezer bag. Place the envelope in the freezer for several hours. Open the envelope. Reseal the envelope.

Listen actively when your boyfriend tells you about his mates. Pay attention to anything you might have in common with them. When you talk to them, say something like, “Oh, you’re Mike! Josh tells me you’re originally from London. My aunt lives there.” Sitting on the sidelines while the guys kid around only makes you look stuck-up. If you don’t understand a joke one of his mates tells, wait until they finish laughing. Then, calmly say, “Sorry. I didn’t quite get that. Did I miss something?” Smile and chuckle a bit as you talk. This should show them that you’re a good sport and can take a lighthearted joke. Don’t let your boyfriend or his mates get away with picking on you or telling sexist jokes. If they can’t treat you with respect, they’re not worth hanging out with. Suggest this only for times when you’re hanging out with them. In a smaller group, it’s often easier to put names with faces. Reassure him that this is only until you get to know his mates better. If any of his mates are seeing anyone, suggest a double date. Getting to know another couple in his social circle will make future get-togethers less awkward. While you’re working on accepting his mates, suggest that he work on accepting yours. Invite your mates to the weekend get-together. This way, you’ll each have someone to speak up if there’s an awkward pause or change the subject if someone says something offensive.

TL;DR in English: Take an interest in his mates. Get in on the joke. Ask your boyfriend to limit the group size. Include your mates.

Like self-tanning lotions, spray tans also contain the three-carbon sugar dihydroxyacetone (DHA), that reacts with amino acids to add color to the skin. Spray tan solutions are generally more concentrated, however, and require anywhere from one to three layers to reach the desired level of tan. Experts advise choosing a spray tan product with a lower percentage of DHA so that you can gradually add color. You can always make yourself darker, but once you spray it on, there's no going back.  Additionally, seek out products infused with erythrulose, a sugar compound present in raspberries. This compound will allow your tan to last longer and produces a healthy glow. If possible, choose products that contain a small amount of green pigment. The green pigment is present in order to balance out any orange that occurs from the spray tan. For people with very fair skin, one layer of spray tan will be sufficient for creating a beautiful glow. For people with tan or dark skin, you may need several layers. Just start slow and gradually add more pigment until you reach the desired color. The most important thing to remember with spray tans is not to overdo it. Fake-looking, orange skin is not attractive. Make sure to get rid of all of the dead and rough skin on the outer layer of your body before getting sprayed. Choose an exfoliating scrub that is oil-free and contains some sort of rough beads or granules that will polish your skin. Use a loofah or a washcloth in the shower to scrub your body. Unlike self-tanning lotions, you really need a professional to perform a spray tan on your body. You can either visit a tanning salon with a spray machine or hire a private professional to come to your home and spray you in your shower. The first option will be much cheaper, however. Depending on the strength of the tan and your original skin tone, a spray tan can last anywhere between five and 10 days. Moisturize with lotion every day to make your tan last longer. To keep a golden glow, touch up your tan as it begins to fade.

If your pimple is especially large and painful, or won’t go away with home treatments, see your doctor. She can diagnose any underlying causes and may be able to provide you treatment to more effectively reduce the pimple. You can see your regular doctor or a dermatologist for the pimple. Your doctor may suggest a cortisone injection for a large or painful pimple. This can quickly reduce inflammation and promote healing.  A cortisone shot may cause some pain or discomfort. Your doctor can use a local anesthetic to numb the area before he injects the pimple.  You may notice a dramatic and immediate reduction of the size of your pimple following a cortisone shot. Large pimples that are closed, or under the skin, are difficult to remove without the help of a doctor. A recent study showed that a simple surgical procedure to remove the pimple at its base using medical cautery and forceps can effectively reduce or remove a large pimple. You will need to visit your doctor for this procedure, which may cause some pain and healing time. This is done only rarely for severe or stubborn cases.

TL;DR in English: See your doctor. Inject cortisone into the pimple. Undergo surgical extraction.

Bros take fitness and health seriously. Proper fitness allows you to defend yourself, compete regularly, and show off your lean physique when you wear those muscle-shirts. Focus on strength training, cardio, and endurance training to lose pounds and get cut. Buy a couple tickets to the gun show, baby.   Develop a workout routine and stick to it a couple times a week. Your energy will improve, and you'll be the best possible version of yourself. You don't have to be a buff guy to be a bro. If you're small or big, you can find similar bros and bro-down together. You might not be able to make friends at the gym like some other bros, but you can use your other bro traits to make up for it. It's easy, it's cool, and it's versatile. Athletic gear is the uniform on the field and the uniform off the field, for most bros. That means basketball shorts, jerseys, Nike shoes, and gym sandals. If it's comfortable and made for the locker room, then it's made for the streets. The athletic bro will usually be spotted in:  Training pants, with buttons up the side Jerseys, team shirts, tank-tops with Greek letters Backwards baseball cap Bros from more cosmopolitan origins will often have a slightly different vibe. Think less Dave Matthews Band concert parking lot and more Martha's Vineyard sailboat club. Different vibe, same bro-ness. This bro will typically be wearing:  White polo shirts Ralph Lauren cargo shorts Sperry shoes Lacrosse gear Ray Bans Gear-head, metal-listening, So-Cal bros have their own style and vibe altogether. You can see these sorts of bros at the Van's Warped Tour or at the skatepark. Typically, they'll be decked in the following attire:  Long Dickie's shorts Skate shoes, like Van's or Airwalk Flat-brim hats Black socks, pulled all the way up City bros are different than country bros. If you've grown up listening to George Jones in the back of your dad's F-150, it's unlikely you'll be running around wearing all the Greek-letter gear. Get real. The cowbro can typically be seen wearing:  Wranglers, loose-fit...

TL;DR in English: Get in shape. Always find a good reason to wear athletic gear. Go for the gentleman bro look. Try out the motocross bro. Try out the country-cowbro look.

Divide your hair into even sections. Section your hair according to the size you’d like the lock to be. Begin to section your hair into squares.  One to two inches (2 ½ to 5 cm) for each square is usually a good size. If you wish, you can secure each section with a rubber band when you are finished sectioning. However, this is not necessary and can be more time consuming. Using a comb, begin to twist each section clockwise. Snag and twist the hairs once you reach the end of the section. Continue this process until you have twisted every section of your hair. Wax each section to hold the twists.  You can do this when you are completely finished twisting, but it is better to do it as you finish each section. Use a thicker wax that does not contain petroleum to begin with.  You can use rubber bands at the roots and ends for the first couple of weeks. Thicker wax is best to begin with because it holds the shape of the locks better than a thinner wax. Twist your hair into shape regularly to help the locks form and keep the shape. You can use a thinner wax once the dreadlocks begin to mature. A thinner wax is used more for fragrance and shine than holding the locks into place.

TL;DR in English: Section your hair. Twist each section. Use a dread wax. Maintain the new dreads.

If your raincoat only has a small spill or area that needs cleaning, there's probably no need to subject it to the rigors of a machine wash.  Mix a bit of mild liquid dish soap into some warm water until it is sudsy.  Dip a clean sponge into the water.  Gently wipe away at the spot you're interested in cleaning. Avoid using soaps containing perfumes, enzymes, or surfactants. Fill your tub or large sink with a shallow layer of hot water.  Mix in mild soap flakes until the water is sudsy.  Dunk the raincoat in the water.  Take it out and place it on a clean, flat surface.  Gently scrub the whole coat using a soft sponge or scrubbing brush.  Start by scrubbing the outside of the coat, then move on to the inside. Dip your sponge or brush back into the soapy water regularly to prevent it from drying out. Drain the water after you're done cleaning the raincoat.  Place the raincoat in the sink or tub and rinse it off with cool water from the faucet or showerhead. If the instructions provided by the care label seem onerous, or if you suspect that you are unequal to the task of cleaning it, you could choose to take the raincoat to a dry cleaners.  If your raincoat has challenging care instructions, your dry cleaner may ask you to sign a waiver conceding that you will not hold them responsible for any damage that might occur in cleaning it. If your raincoat contains polyurethane, do not take it to the dry cleaner.  Polyurethane might be listed on the manufacturer's label as “PU” or “PVC.”  Coats containing this material will crack and flake off when subjected to dry cleaning.

TL;DR in English: Spot clean using soapy water. Clean the coat by hand. Take your coat to a dry cleaner.
