Having long nails doesn’t mean never cutting them! Once you’ve decided on a desired length, groom your nails often to maintain that length. The length you choose is completely up to you, but remember that the longer your nails are, the more bacteria they can harbor. Diligently keep your nails and hands clean.  Trim your nails straight across, then trim the sides as rounded edges. Doing this will avoid breakage and since you'll be shaping them with a file later, don't worry about trimming them to the desired shape now. Everyone’s nails having a breaking point after reaching a certain length, no matter how strong your nails are. The longer the nail, the more easily it can break. Experiment a little to find out what length works best for you. Apply the nail hardener first and then add a fresh layer of topcoat every 1 to 2 days to keep your nails looking great and to help prevent chipping and breakage. If you polish your nails with color, do that first and then apply the additional products.  There is a wide variety of nail polish, nail strengtheners, topcoat and nail hardeners on the market, which you can find in the same section as nail polish when shopping. Experiment with different kinds and discover which products work best for you. Avoid changing your polish frequently, because nail polish itself and removing the polish can both be hard on your nails.  Decals are popular nail adornments and there are tons of designs available. The best ones to use are the kind you peel off paper and apply to your nail like stickers. Do this after you apply nail color, and then do your topcoat on top of the decals to seal them in. These can weaken your nails. The worst culprit is nail polisher remover, which is particularly harsh because many removers contain acetone, which is a very aggressive solvent.  Limit your use of nail polish remover and choose a brand that is acetone-free. Many nail polish brands use harsh and even toxic chemicals in their formulas. These chemicals can make your nails brittle. If this concerns you,...

TL;DR in English: Trim your nails regularly. Apply protective layers of topcoat and nail hardeners to your nails. Avoid using harsh nail care products. Wear gloves when washing dishes or using household cleaners. Use moisturizer to keep your nails hydrated. Maintain a healthy diet.

Just be relaxed and confident. You don't have to do the corny thing where you pretend to yawn and then spread your arm over her shoulder. Just be cool about it. You can be bold and drape your arm around the seat before she sits down, or ease into it after the movie starts. You don't want to assume too much and make the girl uncomfortable by making a move too soon. Feel her out. If she responds well to your touch and affection in general and you've put your arm around her before, then doing so at the movies won't be a big deal. You can even ask her if she's cold; chances are that she will be, because movie theaters are always freezing. This gives you an excuse to put your arm around her. As the movie progresses, you should lean in closer to the girl. Do this slowly when the time is right, or during a scary or romantic scene in the movie. After you put your arm around her, move closer to her so that your heads are almost touching. You can stroke her upper arm with the arm that is draped around her, or you can put a hand on her knee. Just find a way to make her feel comfortable and closer to you. This is where those concessions can become a bit of a pain. Make sure you don't accidentally knock over a drink or a box of Milk Duds. If she seems really into her snack, then you may want to wait a bit until she eats her food so she doesn't feel intruded upon when you try to get close to her. If she's constantly glancing at you or looking at your lips, then she probably wants to kiss you. If she seems a little nervous but responds well to your touch, then she may also want to kiss you. If she keeps pulling away when you try to get close, then she may not be ready for kissing.  Remember that you're only in middle school, and many girls have not kissed and are not comfortable with doing so at that age. Ease off on the pressure or she'll feel uncomfortable. If she turns to you to make little comments or just when she laughs, then it's another sign that she wants your faces to be closer together. When the time is right, go...

TL;DR in English: Put your arm around her slowly. Get closer. Look for signs that she wants to kiss you. Make a move. End on a good note.

Defective spark plug wire leave tell-tale signs of their deterioration. The most common symptoms include:  An erratic idle Engine misfire Radio interference Decreased fuel mileage Failed emissions tests due to elevated hydrocarbon emissions or a fault code indicating cylinder misfire Check engine light Once you have sprayed the spark plug wires and there has been arching, you need to look at the inside of the boot. Remove the boot from the plug by pulling it straight up and off. Check inside the boot for carbon tracking, which is a residue that leaves black marks all over the inside of the boot. The buildup of this carbon shows that the connection is not optimal and can lead to misfiring. If carbon tracking is present, the spark plug and the wire should be replaced.

Pair a black skirt with a button-up shirt for an easy work outfit. Tuck a blouse into a pencil skirt for a classic look. Wear a blazer over your skirt to mimic a skirt suit. Wear a pair of tights if you're concerned about showing off skin. Pick classic dress shoes or booties to complete your look. Keep your accessories to a minimum.

You can make a fun, colorful, and casual bracelet by lacing together buttons with fishing line. Buy regular, two-hole buttons in slightly varying sizes and colors, depending on your own personal style. You will also need a length of fishing line or elastic thread, doubled up to add strength.

Before a student can learn syllabication, she will have to understand how vowel sounds work. She will also have to learn the fact that some vowel sounds are spelled using two vowel letters, such as the "ou" vowel sound in the word round. Before moving on to syllable division, ask your student to accomplish the following tasks:  Know the difference between a short vowel sound and a long vowel sound. Be able to determine a vowel sound for one-syllable words based on the consonants around it. Recognize common English word patterns. For example, they should learn that many consonant-vowel-consonant words involve a short vowel sound, as in rat or tot, whereas many consonant-vowel-consonant-e words involve a long vowel sound, as in rate or tote.  Memorize common vowel sounds that are spelled with two vowel letters, such as "ou," "oi," "ie," "ea," and "ei." Many of the rules of syllabication are approximations. There are no exact rules that can be applied 100% of the time. Much of correct syllabication has to do with instinct and experience. This is why it is essential that you are helping to build your students' vocabularies and reading skills at the same time that you teach syllabication.  For example, continue to ask students to read increasingly difficult texts to expose them to new words, longer words, and new sounds. Assign vocabulary lists to memorize. Make sure you tell students how to pronounce these words as well. Encourage your students to listen carefully to other speakers to hear how words are pronounced and divided into syllables. Whether you are teaching young children, new learners of the language, or native speakers, you should introduce the concept of counting syllables as early as possible. Read off several words of varying lengths, and ask your students to identify the number of syllables they hear. They should be comfortable with counting syllables well before they begin syllabication themselves. Ask young students or people who are having trouble understanding syllables to hold his own chin...

TL;DR in English: Explain vowel sounds to students. Build a student's vocabulary during syllabication instruction. Get students used to counting syllables early on. Have your student touch his chin while speaking. Use drumming and clapping to emphasize syllabication rules. Have your students memorize only the most useful syllabication rules. Give students the Syllable Sort exercise. Ask students to divide proper names into syllables. Make a syllabication game using index cards. Reinforce syllabication knowledge using quizzes and tests.

After you have given yourself a vacation from your original set of perceptions, drag out the list and go through it point by point. Ask yourself if each point has any validity to it and spend the time carefully going through the list one by one. With each perception or statement you made, ask yourself:  "Is it really true?" "Can I prove it to be completely true? Can I prove it to be false?" "How do I react, physically and emotionally, to this thought or idea?" “Are there positive attributes associated with this negative quality?” / “Are there negative attributes associated with this positive quality?” Check your perceptions by forcing yourself to become a beginner again at something new. During times of uncertainty, one's strengths and weaknesses are more likely to show through. Pay close attention to your own reactions during the experience to get a better idea of what your own positive and negative attributes really are.  The trick is to find something you know nothing about and to force yourself into learning about it. If you know nothing about cooking, for example, then learn how to cook. You need to pay special attention to your responses and reactions during this time. This process also needs to be completed on your own. Do not rely on others to get you through it. People hate being wrong, but nobody is perfect. Instead of trying to deny your failings and faults, stop making excuses for yourself and be honest about the things that are wrong. This include the things you already believed to be wrong and those you may have previously denied.  Understand that accepting your failings is a necessary part of seeing yourself as you really are. Aside from that, only in acknowledging and accepting your failings can you hope to eventually improve upon them. You need to do away with excuses, as well. For instance, if you procrastinate habitually, do not try to justify it by saying that you get the work done anyway and so it doesn't really matter. Instead, simply admit to yourself that you procrastinate. When faced...

TL;DR in English: Analyze each perception you originally had. Break out of your comfort zone. Accept your failings. Project inwardly. Look in from the outside. Keep a journal. Think about yourself in healthy ways. Ask yourself who you want to be.

Posture can provide many clues about what a person is really thinking. How they sit and how they lean tells a story. Between 70 and 90 percent of communication can be non-verbal.   If a person leans away from you, they are probably feeling stress. If they are leaning back as if they are relaxed, it can be an indicator that they feel powerful and in control.   Poor posture can mean that a person lacks self esteem or harbors negative feelings. Experts divide body language into positive and negative movement categories. You can identify whether a person feels positively toward you by spotting positive body language moves.   Not crossing arms or legs indicates positive feelings. Looking away, as if shy, is a sign of positive emotion toward you. Leaning toward you is a positive body language movement. Certain cues should indicate to you that the person may harbor negative feelings toward you or themselves.  Crossing arms or legs is a movement that shows wariness. Pointing feet away or toward an exit means a person may have negative feelings. Looking to the side or leaning away is a sign of negative body language. When a person touches their nose, eyes or back of neck, it can indicate negative feelings. There are signs that indicate a person's smile is not genuine. In a genuine smile, you will see the wrinkles around a person's eyes. In a fake smile, you often won't.   Smiling authentically uses more facial muscles.   The laugh lines or wrinkles around the eye are caused by the orbicularis oculi, and are muscles activated in genuine smiles.   Fast smiles are less likely to be genuine.   Fake smiles are sometimes bigger because the person is trying to stretch their face. The eyes are very expressive, and it's possible to tell a lot about a person if you know what to look for in them.  Dilated pupils indicate interest.   Power gazing means a person only looks into the triangle from your eyes to your forehead, meaning they are avoiding intimacy. If they look from your eyes to your mouth and down, that indicates a...

TL;DR in English: Study posture. Identify positive body language. Identify negative body language. Spot fake smiles. Read a person's eyes. Read a person's hands. Read gestures and touch. Read ears.

Pigs need to be confined to a small area, particularly when they're first learning how to live in your house. A crate works for this purpose, one large enough for them to stand up and sit comfortably in. However, you can also put them in a small area, such as a laundry room. Confining your pig will teach your pig the appropriate time to use the bathroom, as most pigs won't want to go in the same area they sleep. Make sure the area is small enough so your pig has just enough room to lay down comfortably. Some pigs won't be completely housebroken for a little bit, so be patient. Plus, you shouldn't expect yours to be completely housebroken before it's 6 months old. To help the pig adjust to going potty, it's important to take them out of the confined area on a leash. That way, the pig knows it's going just to do its business, and it can be distracted by doing other things on the way.

TL;DR in English: Keep your pig in a small area or crate. Keep the pig in the crate until its housebroken. Use a leash and harness.

A tailored button-up shirt pairs well with a black pencil skirt, a-line, or midi skirt for a simple office look. Choose a plain colored shirt or a simple pattern, like polka dots or stripes. Tuck the shirt into your skirt so it looks polished. Consider wearing a belt over the waist of your skirt to pull the look together. For instance, you might wear a wide belt with a button-up shirt and a-line skirt. Both short-sleeved and long-sleeved blouses look great with a pencil skirt. Choose a solid color blouse if you're going for a polished look, or wear a fun print if your office culture encourages creative expression.  For example, you might wear a red silk blouse with your pencil skirt if you're going for a conservative look. As another option, you might wear a floral print or polka dot blouse for a professional look that's fun. Pick a basic black blazer for a polished all-black look. As another option, choose a blazer in a bold color to get noticed. Wear your blazer over a camisole, silk blouse, or button-up shirt.  For example, you might wear a black blazer over a white button-up shirt and a pencil skirt for a style that's both feminine and masculine. As another option, pair a pale blue blazer with a white camisole and black a-line skirt for a fresh look. You don't necessarily need to wear tights with a work look. However, you might decide to wear them if you don't like exposing your legs at work or your workplace culture is a bit conservative. Choose black or solid-color tights to complement a work outfit. During spring and summer, stick to sheer black or colored tights. During the fall and winter, pick opaque tights for more warmth. Ballet flats, pumps, kitten heels, and ankle boots are all great for a work look. If your outfit features neutral colors, you might add a pop of color or a print with a fun shoe. However, stick to a neutral shoe if your top is a fun color or print. Additionally, pick shoes that are comfortable enough for you to wear them all day. For instance, bright pink or leopard print shoes...

Avoid brushing wet hair. Avoid using hot tools. Avoid damaging hair treatments.

Before you can access your router's page, you'll need to have an Internet connection, both to show you the proper address and to allow you to connect to the router. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. Click the gear-shaped icon in the lower-left side of the Start window. Doing so opens the Settings window. It's a globe-shaped option in the middle of the Settings window. It's a link near the bottom of the window. You may have to scroll down to view this link. You'll find the "Wi-Fi" heading to the right of one of the "Name:" headings on this page. This option is near the bottom of the "Wi-Fi" section. The number to the right of the "Default gateway" heading is your router's address. This number will be in the form of an IP address, and will start with 192.168. In your preferred web browser, enter the default gateway number into the address bar and press ↵ Enter. For example, if the default gateway number is "192.168.1.1", you would type 192.168.1.1 into the address bar. Skip this step if not prompted for a username or password. If you've already set up the security settings for your router (i.e., when you initially installed the router), enter the username and password you chose then. If not, common default login credentials include the following:   Linksys routers — Type admin for both the username and the password.  Netgear routers — Type admin for the username and password for the password. Check your router's manual to confirm the default password and username. If you've forgotten your login information, you may have to reset the router. Your router username and password may also be located on a sticker on the router. Once your router's page is open, you can proceed with forwarding a port.

TL;DR in English: Make sure that you're connected to the Internet. Open Start . Open Settings . Click  Network & Internet. Click View your network properties. Scroll down to the "Wi-Fi" section.

If you need to block users on your network from accessing specific websites, you'll have much more success with OpenDNS than by blocking them on your router. This is because most home routers do not block https:// websites, and more and more websites are adopting encryption every day. OpenDNS can filter these encrypted sites for everyone on your network. You can sign up for free at opendns.com/home-internet-security/. You'll be setting your router to use OpenDNS's DNS servers, which will process your blocked sites. To do this, open the router's configuration page in your computer's web browser. Common router addresses include:  Linksys - http://192.168.1.1 D-Link/Netgear - http://192.168.0.1 Belkin - http://192.168.2.1 ASUS - http://192.168.50.1/ AT&T U-verse - http://192.168.1.254 Comcast - http://10.0.0.1 You'll be prompted to log in when you first open your router's configuration page. If you didn't change the login information, the username is usually "admin" and the password is usually "admin" or blank. You may find this in the "Basic Setup" section of the router. For many routers, you'll need to disable automatic DNS before you are able to enter in your own DNS servers. You'll see two DNS server fields. Enter each of the following DNS addresses, which point to the OpenDNS servers:  208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220 Click the Save or Apply button and allow your router to reboot with the new DNS settings. This may take a minute or two. Visit opendns.com and log in with your new account. You'll be taken to the OpenDNS dashboard. You can see your home IP address at the very top of the dashboard page. Type this address into the "Add a network" field. This will allow OpenDNS to tell when traffic is coming from your network, and block sites accordingly. You'll need to confirm your network via an email message that is sent to the account you signed up for OpenDNS with. This will allow you to set what content is blocked on your network. You can choose between Low, Medium, and High security. This is great if there is...

TL;DR in English: Sign up for the free version of OpenDNS Home. Open your router's configuration page. Log in with your router's administrator account. Find the "WAN" or "Internet" section. Disable automatic DNS. Enter the OpenDNS server addresses. Save the changes for your router. Log into the OpenDNS dashboard. Click the "Settings" tab and enter your home network IP. Open the "Web Content Filtering" section of the Settings tab. Choose from one of the preset filtering levels (optional). Add specific websites you want to block to the "Manage individual domains" list. Flush your DNS cache. Test your settings.

prior to the kiss so your breath is fresh. If you have bad breath, it may make the kiss unpleasant. To prevent this, brush your teeth 2 times a day for 2 minutes. If you know you have a kiss planned, brush your teeth before you see the other person.  You can also use mouthwash for extra-fresh breath. Swish the mouthwash around for 30 seconds or so. To freshen your breath throughout the day, use chewing gum or breath mints. To get kissably smooth lips, you can put on chapstick 1-3 times throughout the day. Chapstick hydrates your lips and gets rid of dry skin, so your lips will be smooth and ready for a kiss. For example, put on chapstick after you brush your teeth in the morning and/or right before you go to bed. While lipgloss can make your lips look shiny and kissable, it also can make a big, sticky mess if you wear it while kissing.  If you are planning a kiss, go without wearing lip gloss that day. You can also wipe it off before the kiss for another option.

TL;DR in English: Brush your teeth Use chapstick regularly to get rid of dry skin. Avoid applying lip gloss right before the kiss so there's no mess.

If you have recently graduated high school and you are looking for a college program, many Texas colleges and universities offer the opportunity to pursue your degree and earn your certificate simultaneously.  Choose a program from the list of accredited programs provided by the state of Texas. Only these programs can recommend you for certification within the state.  The Texas State Board for Educator Certification website lists all accredited programs in the state of Texas.  You can even view an interactive map that will show you programs in your area. Expect to spend about four years earning a bachelor's degree while enrolled in this sort of program. Different programs offer different curriculum.  This may allow you to focus your studies according to your teaching goals.  To help make decisions about the program you should choose, think about the grade level and subject areas you’d like to teach.    For instance, if you know you want to teach in a certain type of school, or focus on a certain type of education – look for programs that specialize in training for that type of education. If you don’t know yet, choose a program that offers flexibility in terms of the courses and student teaching opportunities available. The length, costs, and opportunities associated with different programs will vary as well. Entry to education preparation programs will depend upon your ability to meet certain criteria. Expect to be screened for these criteria upon application.  You will need to have completed high school, though minimum grade point averages will vary from program to program.  Find a program’s eligibility requirements on the school’s website. The state of Texas mandates some of these requirements. Others are simply guidelines used by admissions. Contact an admission office directly to inquire about any eligibility requirements you are curious about. Familiarize yourself with everything the program you choose offers.  For instance, consider all available coursework and familiarize yourself with student teaching...

TL;DR in English: Choose an educator preparation program at an accredited Texas institution. Choose a program based on what you want to teach. Ensure your eligibility for the program.

Use a wide-toothed comb to detangle your damp hair. Since hair is more fragile when it’s wet, brushing your hair with the bristles of a brush increases the chances of breaking your hair. If you do brush your hair, brush your hair when it’s dry, and use a boar bristled brush. Boar bristled brushes do a good job of bringing hair oils from the top of your head downward, effectively moisturizing dry ends. The temperature from styling tools can cause heat damage to your hair. Try styling your hair in other ways that don’t require you to use a blow dryer, flat iron, or curler. Consider styling your hair in braids, buns, or twists so you can give your hair a break from the heat. If you must use hot tools to tame your hair, consider lowering the heat settings. Some hot tool heat settings go all the way up to 450°, which is significantly high considering water only has to reach 210° to boil. Any kind of chemical hair treatment (including dye jobs, highlighting, lowlighting, perms, relaxers, etc.) causes damage to your hair. This chemical damage can, in turn, cause your hair to become fragile and dry. If you can, avoid chemical treatments altogether, especially if your hair has had more than one treatment at a time.  Giving your hair a break from the chemicals will allow your natural hair to grow out which should be healthier and more hydrated. If you must dye your hair, consider using a dye with either low amounts of ammonia, or no ammonia at all.

After you’ve brilliantly mocked the latest politician, advertisement, or TV show, stick the art in your portfolio. Online posts are collections of your work, but you should keep your best art on hand. Back up any work that’s done on the computer and save hand-drawn originals. Potential employers will demand your portfolio and use it to determine your qualifications. Luckily, you don’t need to pass out your work in the street when the Internet provides instant exposure. Start up your own page at a site like WordPress or Tumblr. You can even create your own professional website. Spread your work over social media sites like Twitter and art communities such as DeviantArt. Never be afraid to share your art or links to your art. Exposure is how you build a following, which helps you become more of a cartoonist. Cartoon competitions are out there, but they’re tricky to find. Some publications, such as the New York Times, offer these competitions, which help cement your reputation. Other times, governments or organizations run contests for political or artistic causes. Search online for these contests and keep your ears open to suggestions from your audience and friends. Some cartoonists, such as Andre Pijet, got their start from competitions at festivals. You may be able to find regional or national festivals, but pay attention to international festivals too. Many satirists get their start by sending their work to publications such as Mad Magazine, The New Yorker, or The Onion. Competition is tough, so also look for alternative magazines, newspapers, or online publications. Every publication has its own criteria for humor, so research them to see if your work would be a good fit.  Find submission details in the publications or on their websites.

" It can help to understand your reasons for not wanting to have sex. The better you understand yourself and your desires, the better you can express yourself to others.  Some people  practice abstinence. This means refraining from sexual activity altogether, either until marriage or for a set period of time. If you're practicing abstinence, consider your reasons for doing so. What are the benefits of abstaining from sex? Why is this important to you? Occasionally reviewing the reasons you became abstinent to begin with can help you feel more confident in your decision.  Some people simply like to wait a bit to have sex. While the sex on the third date rule is common in pop culture, this might not be a sentiment you share. Maybe you like to get to know someone emotionally before engaging in sex. Maybe you simply aren't comfortable with intimacy early on. Explore your reasons for wanting to put off sex until later in the relationship. This can help you feel more secure explaining your motivations to others.  There are obviously many reasons, based on your own personal history and comfort zone, that you might not want to have sex. Whatever your reason, it's valid. There is no reason to have sex if you do not want to. You should never feel that you are supposed to have sex or are expected to have sex. Some people identify as asexual. Asexual is a sexual orientation, similar to being straight or gay.  Asexual people are simply uninterested in sex. Sexual activity is not pleasurable to people who are asexual. Asexual people may crave romantic love, but usually have a very low or completely absent sex drive.  If you think you might be asexual, you can learn more about asexuality online. LGTB websites, like GLAAD's website, have sections discussing asexuality. Asexuality.org is a website dedicated to exploring and explaining asexuality. Occasionally, people dislike engaging in sex because it does not feel good for them. If you're inexperienced, you may simply not know what does and does not work for you. Exploring...

If you're trying to lose weight, it may seem impossible to pull yourself away from the scale or stop checking if your "goal" clothing fits. But one of the biggest lifestyle and mindset tips to take away from naturally thin people is that obsessing over your weight is unhealthy. People who are naturally thin do not conflate body size or weight with happiness, and neither should you. Avoid judging your body as having to be either all bad or all good. You can feel confident about yourself at your current weight, and if you want to lose some weight simply remind yourself that you're still a beautiful or handsome individual, even as you work to lose that weight. Many people, especially those who diet and/or exercise compulsively, feel guilty when it comes to food. For some, that guilt leads to a lower self image and may result in more compulsive dieting and/or exercising. It's important to be mindful of the dietary choices you make, but remember that naturally thin people don't fixate or obsess over their dietary choices, and neither should you. Not obsessing over dietary choices doesn't mean eating anything you want all the time. Rather, it means acknowledging that everyone slips up sometimes. That doesn't mean you should give up on eating healthy for the rest of the day, nor does it mean working out for three hours afterwards. Simply accept a slip up for what it is and move on. Eating when you feel sad or lonely may be a soothing distraction, but ultimately that's all it does: distract you from your real problems. Those problems will still be there tomorrow and the next day, and no amount of comfort eating will ever truly fix those issues. Naturally thin people don't equate food with happiness, so when they're feeling sad or lonely they're more likely to seek out real, lasting solutions to those problems.  If you're feeling lonely, get out and socialize. Get together with friends for coffee or a walk in the park, or go out and make new friends. Social activity is the only thing that will ultimately cure your...

TL;DR in English: Stop obsessing over weight. Develop a healthy attitude toward food. Find real cures for sadness. Accept your life as it is.

If you wear makeup, you should remove it before you go to bed. Some cleansers claim to remove makeup for you, but these may not get rid of all makeup. You may want to have an extra makeup remover on hand. Use it before you cleanse your face.  Makeup wipes or removers are easy and convenient.  Simply wipe off the makeup with a soaked pad until it is gone. Since eye and lip makeup can be harder to remove, you may want to use a special makeup remover designed for these parts. You should wash your face twice a day, once in the morning before you put on makeup, and once at night before you go to bed. You should also cleanse after sweating heavily.  Wet your skin with warm water but not hot water. Warm water helps remove dirt, but hot water will dry out your skin. Apply the cleanser and massage it onto your skin in upwards, circular motions. Remove completely, either by using a sponge or by splashing with warm water. Dab your face dry with a clean towel. Toner should be applied once you have dried your face after cleansing. Pump a small amount of toner onto a cotton pad, and simply wipe over your face. Avoid the eye area. Let the toner dry on your skin. You do not need to rinse off. If you have dry or sensitive skin, find an alcohol-free toner. Your moisturizer goes on after your toner absorbs. You can massage your moisturizer into your skin using upward circular motions to your face and neck. Alternatively, you can apply it to your clean palms and gently pat it in. If you have dark or puffy eyes or if you are concerned about wrinkles around your eyes, you can use a separate eye cream. Gently pat the cream around your eye with your ring finger. You should only exfoliate once or twice a week, or else you may cause damage to your skin. Be gentle as you exfoliate. Soft movements are all that are needed. Vigorously rubbing or scrubbing can be harmful.  There are many different types of exfoliation. You can use a wash-off scrub, a special mitt or sponge, or even a chemical exfoliant such as AHA or BHA. You may want to...

Staying in contact with your students is one of the most essential parts of being an effective online teacher. Offer more than one way for your students to contact you, including by email, by phone, by video chat, and via the online discussion board for the course. Giving your students may different ways to get in touch with you will show them you are interested in communicating with them and are willing to adapt to their communication needs.  You may want to include all your contact information as part of a first day posting on the discussion board or in your syllabus for the course, which should be uploaded to the online learning page for the course before the course begins. Offering many different communication methods also means you can check up on students who start to fall off the discussion boards or appear inactive in the course. You should reach out to any inactive students through one of the many communication methods you have set up to reestablish a connection so they become more engaged in the course. It is important that you be flexible with your time as an online teacher, as your students may have work schedules or other commitments that mean they may get in touch with you at odd hours. But being flexible does not mean you cannot also set some parameters around when you are available for a discussion about an assignment or when you will provide feedback on an online post. You may want to establish online office hours where you will actively be online and ready to answer any student questions. For example, this could be every Monday and Wednesday from 3-5 pm or it could be two hours before the online class session begins. Be specific about your office hours but be willing to also be flexible and meet your students halfway if they have a conflicting schedule that requires them to be online at odd hours. Keep the lines of communication open and hold your students accountable by scheduling weekly one on one check ins with your students. This could be a short video chat about how they are feeling...

TL;DR in English: Set up more than one way to communicate with your online students. Establish online office hours but be flexible with your time. Have weekly check ins with your students. Integrate feedback from your students into your lesson plans. Hand out a class survey at the end of the online class.

Remember when you were a little kid, and you'd hop up as soon as your eyes opened in the morning? Back then you were carefree and happy to get up and begin all the fun activities the day held in store. It's harder to get out of bed when you aren't looking forward to going to work or school, but if you focus on the good things that will happen that day, you'll be able to wake yourself up faster. So, always look forward for a bright day. Try it tomorrow: as soon as you wake up, think about the best thing about the day, and let your heart race a bit in anticipation.  This is easy to do on your birthday and fun holidays, but you'll have to get creative to wake up with a smile on rainy gray Mondays. Even if you don't have a big event to anticipate, think about the little things that make you happy on a daily basis: walking your dog. Drinking that first cup of coffee. An alternative to coffee is chocolate, (flavonoids) especially 70% cocoa and darker, but if eaten too late in the day sleep deprivation may occur. Talking on the phone with your best friend after a hard day's work. Getting your favorite takeout on the way home. Whatever it is, think about it first thing when you wake up. Does your room get natural light in the morning? If not, you're missing out on nature's most effective wake-up call. When the sun streams through your windows in the morning, your brain naturally knows it's time to start moving. But if you have blackout curtains and don't get decent light in the AM, you're going to feel groggy until you go outside.  If you have thick curtains to block out lights from the street, try getting shades in neutral colors that effectively block most artificial light, but still let your room brighten up when the sun rises. You may also try waking up early and actually watching the sun rise. This gives you some time alone in the morning before the pressures of the day start. Watch the sun rise from your window, or take a walk outside early to clear your head. Going 8 hours without drinking water (while you're...

Use the oil after a manicure. Put it on whenever you have free time. Apply the oil before bedtime.

When you have finished picking up all of the stitches for the heel, count your total number of stitches and divide them evenly among 3 needles. You may have to have 1 less or more on one of the needles to do this. For example, if you have 84 stitches, then you can place 28 stitches onto each needle. But if you end up with 85 stitches, then 1 needle will need to have 29 stitches on it and the other 2 will have 28 stitches. When your stitches are divided evenly among the 3 needles, begin knitting in the round. This will start to form the foot section of the stocking. Knit several rounds until the foot section of your stocking is about 4 inches (10 cm) or longer. After the foot section measure about 4 inches (10 cm) from the heel, you can start to decrease the total number stitches in each round. Knit the rounds as usual, but knit 2 stitches together when you reach the last 3 stitches in the round. Then, knit 1 and repeat the round. Continue decreasing in this way until you have a total of 28 stitches. the remaining stitches. When you have 28 stitches left, bind them off. To bind off, knit the first 2 stitches in the round, then slip the first new stitch over the second new stitch. As you do this, let the first stitch to slip off the then of the needle. Then, knit 1 and slip the first stitch over the second stitch again.  Repeat this until you have worked all of the stitches off of your needles. Make sure to leave a long tail (12 inches (30 cm) or longer) so that you can use the tail yarn to weave the toe opening closed. Thread the tail yarn through the eye of the yarn needle. Then, begin sewing the opening closed. Match up the bound off stitches and sew through 2 at a time to close up the opening. When you get to the end, insert the needle into the inside of the stocking’s toe and then-then turn the stocking inside out to secure it from the inside and hide the knot.

Like it or not, the way you look is a big part of a first impression. Choose clothes that flatter you without making you look overdressed. You don’t want to be slumming it in sweats when you meet your in laws. At the same time, you wouldn’t want to wear a cocktail dress or tuxedo when everyone else is in sundresses or polos!  Make sure that your clothes are clean, presentable, and not too revealing or potentially offensive. For casual or semi-casual occasions, you could try wearing a nice button-down shirt or polo with khakis, or a dress that makes you look great while still being comfy and not flashy. In cooler weather, a nice sweater can do the trick. Jeans can be ok, too, as long as they're clean and free of tears. If your in laws have invited you over, it’s often considered polite to bring food, a drink, or a small gift with you. Ask your partner what they think is appropriate, and give it to your in laws yourself when you arrive.  Things like a bottle of chocolates, or some flowers can do wonders. Make sure to ask your partner about their in laws’ expectations first. In some cultures, it’s considered offensive to bring something when invited over. Ask your partner if their parents enjoy drinking alcohol before bringing wine or another alcoholic drink as a gift. If they don't drink or if they are opposed to drinking, alcohol will not make a good gift. Work with your partner and do a little research. Find out what your in laws are interested in, and make sure to ask them about that. You can also ask them about their hobbies, home, or family history. Showing you care about them will go a long way!  If you have any common interests, bring those up to form bonds: “Mr. Smith, Sam tells me you’re interested in scuba diving. Me too!” Even little comments and questions like “Who’s in this photo?” will show your interest. Try giving comments like “You have a beautiful home!” or “I love that sweater--where did you get it?” Compliments like these are another way of showing your in laws that you’re interested in...

TL;DR in English: Dress well. Bring them a small gift if you're going to their house. Start conversations that show you’re interested. Compliment them and their stuff. Have a one-on-one chat. Be especially polite if you are in public. Try the food even if you don’t think you’ll like it. Let them know how nice it was to meet them.

A public service announcement is an educational message intended to raise awareness about a topic that serves the public. The goal is to motivate viewers to change their behavior or attitude about the topic in the film through persuasion and facts. The most important decision you have to make is selecting a topic for your PSA film. Think about who your audience is and be sure your topic is relevant to them. There are several questions to consider to make sure your topic is specific and meaningful.  What key message are you trying to convey? Does this message service the public's interest in a significant way? Is it new and important? Why?  Can you announce your message in a minute or less? Who is your audience? What specific action do you want them to take after seeing your film?  What might your audience already know about your topic, and what should they know? How can you include this in your call-to-action? It is worth emphasizing that you need to know exactly who your audience is. The group you are trying to reach needs to be as specific as possible. Demographics should be considered in planning your PSA.  One major demographic category you may want to think about is age groups (children, teenagers, young adults, adults, senior citizens). Other demographic categories to consider are gender, education level, religion, political affiliation, income level, or race/ethnicity. Once you know your topic spend time researching it. You are now an authority on the topic so make sure you back your claims up with credible sources. Collect data, facts, and statements that can support passionate scenes and memorable dialogue.  Gather as many statistics and hard data as you can about your topic.  If you are not sure about any of your research, have someone else fact-check it for you. Even though you are not paying for airtime, creating a PSA film can be expensive. This is another piece of preparation that will depend on several questions. Planning a budget will help you get an idea of how much you can afford and what to...

Believe it or not, there was a time when you took regular breaks from work. If your work schedule allows, take breaks and enjoy a quick recess. Even if you have to wait until after work, schedule time during the day to do something fun.  Try one of the activities discussed above. Instead of eating your lunch at your desk while doing work, try going on a picnic in the park. Recess time in school usually involves physical exercise outside so use shorter breaks to  enjoy a quick walk around the block instead of waiting in line for coffee. You can also bring your drink with you. You might not have time to drag out a rest mat at work, but you can pack a snack to help you feel more like a kid. Snacking during the day keeps your blood sugar level and elevates your mood. To feel even more like a kid, forgo the grown-up protein bar and pack a juice box, fruit snack, or pudding cup. While adults are often afraid to admit they don’t know or understand something, children readily absorb information and are excited to learn new things. Take a community education class, join a book group, attend a lecture, or pick up a new hobby. If it seems daunting to venture out on your own, encourage a friend or family member to go with you. Many adults bring workplace stresses home with them, which prevents you from feeling youthful. When you return home from the office, turn off your work email and avoid focusing on the day’s problems. Researchers have found that children smile 400 times per day while adults only smile about 20 times per day. According to psychologists, smiling and laughing make you feel happier and more youthful, so get ready to grin and guffaw if you want to feel young. If you want to maintain a more youthful perspective, try watching a family-friendly movie or reading a book intended for a younger audience. These selections are often more lighthearted and less serious. To take a trip down memory lane, pick one of your childhood favorites. Spending quality time with kids is one of the best ways to feel youthful. ...

TL;DR in English: Enjoy recess. Make time for snack time. Embrace what you don’t know. Leave the stresses of work behind. Smile and laugh. Watch children’s movies and read children’s books. Play with your own kids or volunteer to work with children in your community.

Unless animal control observes the animal depositing waste, they are usually unable to issue a citation. However, animal control can issue citations if you have:  a color photograph of the animal depositing waste the animal is visible in the photograph you document the date, location, and time of the incident It might be easier to make a video instead of taking photographs. Most smart phones have the capability to film short videos. Be sure that the animal and the owner are both visible, which will make it easier to identify both. In some cities, animal control might need more than one person to make a complaint before they do anything, especially if you didn’t get a picture of the incident. You should check if you can get at least two witnesses.   Speak to people around the neighborhood who might see the animal owner not pick up after the animal. Document the witness’s name and contact information, such as phone number and email address. Ask the witness if they would be willing to testify.

TL;DR in English: Take pictures of the animal depositing waste. Shoot video instead. Get witnesses.

Cuticle oil is a great way to rehydrate your cuticles after a manicure. The oil will not harm or remove the nail polish. Additionally, cuticle oil is a great way to revamp an old manicure. Just massage the oil over your cuticles and nails to give them a fresh shine. Do not use it before a manicure. The oil will prevent the nail polish from adhering to your nail. If you do decide to use it before a manicure, then make sure to wipe your nails clean with nail polish remover or alcohol. Apply the oil whenever you are riding the bus or sitting in a taxicab, at your work desk, or on the couch while watching TV, for example. Basically, whenever you have some downtime. Apply cuticle oil twice a day, or more if you need to. This is a great way to ensure that your cuticles stay hydrated and nourished for the coming day. Just remember to be persistent and consistent to keep your cuticles looking healthy.

You should acknowledge the risks of trampolining. Injuries are common when you jump together on a trampoline or land wrong while jumping. Injuries are also common from failed flips and somersaults. You and your parents should be aware of these dangers.  You could tell your parents: “I know there are dangers. There are risks in any sport. Trampolining is no exception. I realize I could hurt myself but I plan to take every precaution to jump safely. I don’t plan on doing any somersaults and I plan to use a safety net.” Common injuries that you may experience include broken arms and legs from contact with the side rail, concussions, lacerations, and abdominal injuries from the side rail. Talk about all the different features the trampoline may have, like a big net or softer sides. If your parent asks about how you will avoid falling and hurting yourself, you can say: “I will only jump by myself and in the middle of the trampoline. If I make a mistake and jump too far to one side, the trampoline has a big safety net that will prevent me from falling on the ground.” You should propose a safety plan for the home trampoline. Write down a complete list of safety precautions that you will follow when using the trampoline. Ask your parents for approval and recommendations.  Tell your parents that you will anchor the trampoline to guard against strong winds and movement from big bounces. Tell your parents you will only jump on the trampoline when an adult is present.  Tell your parents you will not allow more than one person at a time on the trampoline. Three quarters of trampoline injuries occur when multiple people are jumping at once.  Tell your parents you will not do any gymnastic exercise on the trampoline.  Avoid somersaults and flips. Somersaults and flips that go wrong are often the cause of cervical spine injuries.  Make a rule that there will be no jumping when the trampoline is wet. One aspect of safety is simply installing the trampoline in a location that is free of obstacles. Another part of safety is...

TL;DR in English: Discuss the risks of trampolining with your parents. Explain some of the safety features to your parents. Figure out a safety plan for your trampoline. Tell your parents about the need to properly install the trampoline in a good location.

This is the best and cheapest way to prevent your dog from getting rabies. Set up a regular vaccination schedule with your veterinarian to keep your dog’s rabies vaccine up-to-date. Your dog might be on a yearly, every two years or every three years vaccination schedule based on the vaccine manufacturer’s guidelines or state or local laws. Many countries have laws requiring dogs to be vaccinated against rabies. The best way to keep your dog safe, aside from getting him vaccinated, is to keep him from interacting with wild animals. You might try keeping him fenced in a yard, limiting his time outside when wild animals are more likely to be active (like early morning, evening, or nighttime), and keeping him on a leash when out for walks. Pay particular attention to your dog when you take him for hikes or walks through areas where wild animals are common. If you're in high risk area or occupation, you should get a pre-exposure vaccine to protect against rabies. The Centers for Disease Control also recommends pre-exposure vaccination for travelers who stay more than one month in an area of the world where rabies is widespread or if the travelers will work with any kind of animal in these areas. High risk occupations include:  Veterinarians Veterinary technicians Rabies laboratory personnel People who work with wildlife either at wildlife sanctuaries, rehab centers, or parks If you are bit by an animal you think might have rabies, wash the wound with soap and water for 10 minutes. Then, call your doctor's office, who will contact the proper authorities to investigate. They'll also try to capture the animal that bit you for rabies testing. If they can't find the animal or it is found and tests positive for rabies, you will be put on a post-exposure vaccine course which varies depending on if you’ve had a previous rabies vaccine or if you haven’t.

TL;DR in English: Get your dog vaccinated against rabies. Limit your dog's exposure to wild or stray animals. Get pre-exposure vaccines for yourself. Treat any wounds caused by potentially rabid animals.

Vampire Goth hairstyles are characterized by stark, monochromatic, and simple colors, so dying your hair bright white or jet black is great way to achieve this look. For a more permanent look, you can visit your local salon or purchase a permanent or semi-permanent black hair dye from a drug or beauty supply store. For longer-lasting white hair, try learning how to get white hair using bleach and toner. If you are looking for a more temporary option, you can use a spray-on temporary hair color in either white or black. Temporary spray-on hair colors are easy to apply by following the directions on the container, and generally wash out after 1 to 2 washes. Use a straightening iron or hairdryer to straighten your hair until it is stick-straight. Vampire Goth hairstyles are generally clean and pristine, so this is a relatively easy look to accomplish whether your hair is long or short. Try parting your hair in the middle before or after your straighten it for an extra mysterious, vampire vibe.  Wear just a few simple accessories or skip them altogether to stay in-line with the vampire Goth style. Try adding a bright red lipstick, pale face make up, and jet black mascara to complete your vampire look. If you have shorter hair (above the shoulders) or bangs, you can achieve a vampire Goth look by creating a deep side part on either the left or right side and sweeping your hair across your forehead. Once your hair is parted correctly, use a curling iron to create loose waves across the front of your hair. Trying using a dark eyeliner on both your upper and lower lids, as well as a dark eyeshadow to enhance your mysterious vibe.

TL;DR in English: Dye your hair bright white or jet black. Straighten your hair stick-straight. Try a side-swept, curly vampire look.

Your doctor will prescribe (or recommend an over-the-counter version of) an anti-worm medication. Some examples include Mebendazole, Pyrantel permeate, and Albendazole. You will be directed to take one dose of one of these medications (follow the specific instructions of your doctor) and then to wait two weeks. The way this medication works is that it kills off any adult worms. They are all eradicated, except for the eggs which will remain in your system. After two weeks have passed, you will be directed to take one more dose of the same anti-worm medication. The purpose of this second dose is to kill any new worms that have formed as a result of the eggs. The two week timing is extremely important, as it catches the worms at just the right phase in their lifecycle so as to kill all of them without needing any further doses after this one. Since threadworms are so easily passed from one person to another, your doctor will likely recommend that everyone in the household be treated with two doses of the anti-worm medication. It is better to be safe rather than sorry, and to prevent the hassle of someone in the household showing signs of an infection just after the initial person was cured. This is especially true if you are treating pinworm infections in children. Although pinworms can technically be treated with six weeks of very strict hygiene measures (because the lifecycle of the worm is six weeks), it is very challenging to adhere by these strict standards at home, particularly if children are involved.  The benefit of medication is that it is extremely effective at clearing the infection in two weeks. Hygienic measures can then be used as a means to prevent re-occurence or subsequent infections down the road.

TL;DR in English: Take one dose of an anti-worm medication. Take another dose at the two week mark. Treat everyone in the household. Know that medication is your best bet.

The unique marking of a female black widow spider is the bright red hourglass shape on the underneath part of its abdomen.  The female spider has a black and shiny body with a large and round abdomen. The body is about 1 and ½ inches in length, and the entire spider, legs and all, is more than 1 inch across. They have fangs that are a little shorter than those of other spiders, yet still long enough to penetrate human skin. Black widow spiders are reported to be commonly found in the southern and western regions of the United States. Other sources and statistics report frequent sightings as far west as California, all along the eastern seaboard, south to Florida, and north as far as Okanagan in BC and central Alberta in Canada. Black widows like to live outside where there are plenty of flies to feed on; however, they can be found inside structures and shelters.  They prefer undisturbed places such as woodpiles, under simulated rock well covers, the eaves of a house, around fences, and other areas where debris piles up. Watch for black widows in dark, moist, and undisturbed places like meter boxes, under porches, porch furniture, and inside and around barns and sheds. Black widow spiders like to make their webs between objects that are solid and stationary. Some spiders prefer to make their webs in locations that are more flexible, like between shrubbery and tree branches.  The black widow's webs are purposefully made in an irregular shape, not like the typical and sometimes practically perfect webs made by other spiders. The fibers of the web are stronger than those found in most spider webs. They don't prey on human skin. Most bites occur when their webs are disturbed. They are not aggressive but will bite when they feel trapped or are touched. The females have the classic markings and the more potent venom. If you are bitten by a female black widow, then you need prompt medical attention.  The body of a female is usually larger in size than a male black widow spider, however the legs of a male are often...

TL;DR in English: Identify the black widow spider without disturbing it. Spot possible places where they like to live. Try not to disturb the web. Differentiate the males from the females.

Eversion is most common in younger children, though even in these cases it is still relatively uncommon. There are many different causes of eversion and learning about them may help you identify if you have a problem and get help in a timely manner. Causes of eversion include:  Flat feet, or pes planus External tibial torsion, or an outward twisting of the leg bone Hip contracture, or externally rotated hips Femoral retroversion, or having a thighbone (femur) that is angled backwards. Beyond having feet that point in a “V-shape,” people who have eversion exhibit other signs or symptoms. By identifying potential symptoms, you may be able to get a definitive diagnosis and timely treatment. Some symptoms of eversion include:  Functional difficulties, including walking. Pain around the front of the knee.  Hip tightness.  Hip or lower back pain. Discomfort may also be present in your neck and head as your body tries to maintain a straight posture.  Weakness in the knees, ankles, or hips. Whenever you are walking, running, or doing other types of exercise, notice if you experience any pain or unusual sensations. This can help you identify potential problems and get help minimize the risk of developing a more serious problem.  Note any symptoms you have, when they start and how severe they are. Be aware of anything that relieves your V-shaped walk or makes related pain go away. If you have pronounced symptoms and/ or pain, or attempts to correct your gait don’t seem to be successful, schedule an appointment with your doctor. She can assess your walk, make a definitive diagnosis, and prescribe proper treatment for your V-shaped walk.  Tell your doctor when you first noticed your walk or if you’ve always had it. Explain any pain or other symptoms you have. Allow your doctor to examine your walk or your lower body to help make an assessment of what is causing your V-shaped walk. Your doctor may also prescribe tests to better view your bones and muscles, which could also help her make a more definitive diagnosis and...

Do not use water to clean your dachshund’s ears, as it could lead to infection. Ask your veterinarian to recommend an ear cleaner that contains a drying agent and follow the use instructions carefully. . Dental hygiene is an important aspect of your dachshund’s health. You can purchase a dog toothbrush and dog toothpaste from most pet stores. Before you try brushing your dog’s teeth, make sure that your dog is comfortable with your hand in their mouth.  Place your dachshund on your lap facing away from you. Peel their lips back with your non-dominant hand. Holding the toothbrush in your dominant hand, begin brushing the front teeth. Next, use your non-dominant hand to open your dachshund’s mouth. Holding the toothbrush in your dominant hand, brush the back teeth and molars. . Clipping your dog’s nails is another important part of regular grooming. Because a dachshund’s nails are black, it is hard to see the quick so it’s important that you receive training from a professional dog groomer or veterinarian before clipping your dog’s nails. Once you’ve been shown how to properly do so, you can:  Identify the “quick.” (A dark area inside the nail that contains blood vessels.) Place your dachshund on your lap facing away from you. Hold your dog’s paw firmly in your non-dominant hand. Slide each claw through the small hole in the nail clippers (above the quick). Squeeze the nail clipper. You may want to lie your dachshund on its side to trim the back paws.

TL;DR in English: Apply an ear cleaner with a drying agent. Brush your dog’s teeth Clip their nails

If your doctor catches your throat cancer in its early stages, it may be possible to remove the cancerous cells with surgery. About 80% of patients recover from throat cancer if the surgery is a success in the early stages of the disease.  Surgery using endoscopy, where tumors on the surface of your throat or your vocal cords are removed through your mouth no incisions, may be used. Your doctor may be able to scrape off or cut out the tumors depending on their size and location.  Your doctor may also use laser surgery to remove smaller tumors in your throat. The laser will be inserted into your throat to vaporize tumors in your throat. For advanced-stage cancer, your doctor may remove all or part of your voice box to get rid of tumors on your voice box. Your doctor will do their best to preserve your ability to speak and breathe normally using your mouth and throat. If there are larger tumors on your voice box, your doctor may need to remove your entire voice box. During surgery, the doctor may attach your windpipe to a hole in your throat to allow you to breathe. If your entire larynx must be removed, you will likely work with a speech pathologist to help you learn how to speak without your voice box. For advanced-stage cancer, surgery on your lymph nodes will most likely need to be performed if the cancer has spread deep within your neck. Your doctor may recommend removing some or all of your lymph nodes to ensure the cancer does not spread. Surgically removing the lymph nodes is controversial, but it may be necessary, as throat cancer can recur or spread through your lymph system. Your doctor may recommend removing your lymph nodes to check if cancer is present and to lower the risk of the cancer coming back. Though surgery can successfully remove the cancerous cells from your throat, especially if it is in the early stages of the disease, there are still risks and side effects associated with this option. Your doctor should outline all the risks of the surgery before you undergo the procedure.  You are at...

TL;DR in English: Opt for surgery for early-stage throat cancer. Get surgery to remove all or part of your voice box. Talk to your doctor about surgery on your lymph nodes. Be aware of the risks and complications of throat surgery.

This activity can be fun for most toddlers, and can teach them the basics of camping. Examples of activities your toddler can perform are collecting small sticks use in building a fire and helping you with setting up tents and other camping supplies. If your toddler loses interest, you may need to tend to them instead of continuing to set up camp. With this in mind, try to give yourself extra time to get everything in place before dark. While toddlers can get exhausted easily, you can still do fun, short activities with them. Examples of activities that may be fun for your toddler include short hikes, bicycle rides, and wildlife adventures that consist of finding new leaves or insects. Try to stay within 15 to 30 minutes of your campsite so that you can get back there easily if your toddler throws a fit or loses the ability to walk on their own. Your child should be shown ways to clean up after themselves, including throwing away garbage in a trash bag or can.  Also model for them a respect for plants, vegetation, and animals during hikes and exploration.  You can even make picking up trash around your campsite a game for your toddler.  Telling your toddler to "be gentle" with every plant they try to grab can get exhausting but it's worth the effort if you can show them how to properly interact with plants and animals in nature.

TL;DR in English: Involve your toddler with setting up camp. Take your toddler on short, nearby exploration trips. Teach your toddler how to respect wildlife and the outdoors.

When you're selecting herbs, you want to pick very perky bunches and avoid any with lots of wilting leaves, or any sliminess or spotting. Generally, leafy herbs will spoil more quickly, compared to heartier herbs, which can be stored more easily.  Leafy herbs include basil, cilantro, parsley, and mint, and should be stored in water in the fridge. Hearty herbs include sage, rosemary, thyme, and dill. These herbs should be bundled loosely and stored in the fridge, wrapped loosely in paper towel, but not in water. Whether you've bought your herbs in a bunch at the market, or purchased them fresh in a plastic container, it's a good idea to remove the binding and examine them. Remove any wilting, spotted, or slimy stalks, and trim the end of all of the stems.  Dry them thoroughly. Leafy herbs will spoil much more quickly if they're wet. You don't have to trim much, just the very end of the stems. No more than a centimeter or two. Do not remove the leaves from the stems. If you want to dry or freeze your herbs, skip to the next section. Generally, you want to treat fresh herbs the same way you would treat fresh-cut flowers. Put about 1-2 inches of clean filtered water at the bottom of a drinking glass and let your herbs sit with the cut stems submerged. Keep them unbridled and loose. Don't submerge the leaves in water. Just the ends of the stems. Think flowers. Use a loose, open paper towel wrapped around the top of the leaves, and tucked into the glass. This helps to keep the moisture around the herbs, without trapping it against the leaves. It also helps keep the herbs from taking on the smells of your refrigerator. If you don't have a paper towel, a plastic bag can work just as well. These tend to trap moisture against the leaves, making them spoil more quickly, but they can work just fine. Depending on how old your herbs were when you bought them, they should stay fresh in the fridge for up to a week. Change out the water every couple of days, and make sure they're not wilting or spoiling.  Remove individual...

TL;DR in English: Choose fresh and firm herbs to store. Remove the herbs from the packaging, dry them, and trim the stems. Place the freshly trimmed stems in a glass of fresh water. Cover the herbs with a dry paper towel to help keep them from drying out. Store in the refrigerator for 5-7 days.

While the heat from inside your fridge should cause the water in the drip pan to evaporate, there still may be standing water inside it. Pour the water down your sink drain to get rid of it. After emptying the drip pan, set it in your sink so you can start cleaning. You can also remove standing water by using a wet/dry vacuum. Mix 1 part bleach with 2 parts warm water in a clean spray bottle and shake it up so it’s thoroughly mixed. Spray the drip pan so it’s completely wet and let the bleach solution sit on the surface for 2-3 minutes. Spray extra cleaner on any mold or mildew you see building up on the drip pan to help loosen it and disinfect the area. The bleach may change the color of your drip pan if it’s not originally white. After a few minutes pass, wipe the inside of the drip pan with a cleaning rag to remove the cleaner. Work from one side of the drip pan to the other so you don’t spread any mold around. Apply a firm amount of pressure while you scrub the drip pan to break apart any built-up residue. You can also use paper towels if you don’t want to get any mold on fabric cleaning rags. Hold the drip pan under your faucet and let warm water run over it. Rinse the entire drip pan so there isn’t any cleaner left on the surface. Use another rag or sponge to wipe it off if there’s still any residue still on it. Use a cleaning towel or paper towels to wipe the pan dry. Make sure there aren’t any water droplets on the pan or else it could develop mold again when you reinstall it. Once the drip pan is dry to the touch, slide it back into your fridge and replace the panels so you can use it again. You can also let the drip pan air-dry for 30 minutes instead.

Blonde hair needs more attention than other hair colors. Keep in mind that transitioning more than two shades lighter or darker will require a stronger effort to maintain. When your roots begin to grow out, you will need to use the same professional process to do a touch up. If high maintenance is an issue, err on the side of caution when deciding to go blonde or not. Do not attempt to bleach or tone your hair at home. Bleach is an extremely harsh chemical that strips your hair follicles. You will need to pay a saloon professional to transition you to blonde and for all of the maintenance visits. While a DIY color job might be the cheaper option, bleaching at home can create a hair horror that you won't want to deal with. You can easily fry your hair, turn it orange or lose all of its volume. To be safe, you will have to be able to afford to see a professional. To keep your hair at the desired shade and your roots matching, you need to touch it up every four to six weeks. When your roots start to show, you will need to bleach and tone them to match your hair. Also, you will need to have your hair trimmed at almost every visit for blonde hair causes split ends. If you are going to a saloon for touch-ups, which is highly recommend, this endeavor becomes pretty pricey. Consider the long term expenses and be sure you have not only the time for saloon visits, but also the money it will take to maintain your blonde hair. Going all blonde at once is not recommended. It is natural to become excited about having an all blonde look, but it is important you work your way up to an all over color. Depending on how dark or damaged your current hair is, your saloon professional is going to want to gradually lighten your hair using blonde highlights and then slowly build on them over time. This prevents your hair from going into shock and breaking off.  Most stylists will deny a full coverage bleach job because they know how damaging it is to your hair. Your stylist is going to ask you about past color treatments and process...

TL;DR in English: Determine the hair color maintenance level you are comfortable with. Have a professional bleach and tone your hair. Touch up your roots and hair tone regularly. Factor in the time it will take to become blonde. Plan for the financial cost. Research quality hair products.

While APA and MLA are used by different types of disciplines, Chicago can be used by a wide range of writers. The catch is that there are actually two system of Chicago formatting.  The notes-bibliography system: used in the humanities (literature, history and the arts). It provides notes at the bottom of the page, and sometimes a full bibliography at the end of the text. The author-date system: used the physical, natural, and social sciences. It provides parenthetical in-text citations that include the author and date of publication, as well as a bibliography. When using the notes-bibliography system, you show that you want to cite a quote, idea, or other content by using a footnote. At the end of the sentence that contains the borrowed material, place a number in superscript. The first source cited on the page is “1,” the second source is “2,” and so on. This numbering system resets with each page, and you start over with “1” instead of moving on to “3.”  At the bottom of the page, create a space for footnotes that is separated from the body text by a typed lined is 1.5 inches wide. Match each source to its information in the text by using the same number, but do not raise it into superscript. A second way to format the notes-bibliography system is to point the superscript notes in-text to a full bibliography at the end of the document. It’s formatted in the exact same way, but the numbering reaches from the first to last page, rather than restarting with each new page. Notes are single-spaced, but you should skip lines between entries. The first line of each source is indented, just like a paragraph, but subsequent lines are not.

TL;DR in English: Decide which kind of Chicago style formatting you should use. Place footnotes at the bottom of the page. Put endnotes after the body of the paper. Format your notes properly. Shorten the note for each source after the first usage. Create a bibliography. Format the bibliography entries properly.

Anterior knee pain occurs at the front and center of the knee. Start the floss just below the kneecap. Wrap the floss around your knee, moving up toward your thigh and overlapping each band. Tuck the end into the previous band. Begin the floss on the outside of your leg. Then pull the floss from the outside of your knee, across your leg, and toward the inside of your thigh. Continue wrapping, working downward toward the top of your knee. Tuck the end into the previous band. You shouldn’t wrap your knee if you have lateral knee pain. The entire band should be wrapped around your leg just above your kneecap. Start the floss on the outside of your leg, just below your kneecap. Then wrap it over the front of your leg, working toward the inside of your thigh. Overlap the floss as you wrap it, tucking the end into the previous band. Stand with your feet just over shoulder-width apart. Keeping your back straight, bend at the knees until they are just over your feet. Then push into the ground and raise your body back up.

TL;DR in English: Begin wrapping the knee below the kneecap for anterior knee pain. Begin wrapping your leg above the kneecap for lateral knee pain. Use the voodoo floss below your knee for pain under the kneecap. Perform 20 to 30 squats.

There are a variety of online encyclopedias you can find that will detail how you should care for the specific type of houseplant you own, including recommended humidity levels, sunlight exposure guidelines, and watering guides. Since many houseplants differ, it’s important to find what is ideal for your specific type of houseplant.  Most houseplants come with a tag that will have their common and scientific name. If it doesn’t, ask the florist you got it from. The scientific name consist of two parts the genus and species. For example, Spathiphyllum wallisii is the scientific name for peace lily. Many plant names like poinsettia and begonia are both common names and scientific names. If you see a x, third name or a name in quotation marks it's a cultivar, hybrid or subspecies (in easy terms, a special breed). Some plant types however will leave the plant stumped with general names like general foliage, assorted palms, or desert cacti. With reference and advice from a garden pro, you can learn to identify many genus (if not the exact species) by looking at them. If you were given a houseplant and are unsure of what type it is, go through the photos in a flower book, encyclopedia, handbook of house plants and find the picture that best matches your plant. Get the name of the exact species and cultivar to make sure you get the right plant. A genus can have a group of a million species and cultivars within it. Some species or cultivars are less difficult to grow in the house than others or the original species. Also there are many different sizes and growth rates. Some ficus species grow into huge trees over time and others are creeping vines. Same goes for the Philodendron and Anthurium groups. Many of the plants on the market as house plants do not really belong in the indoor environment. In fact many people unknowingly buy these species and it likely dies on them. The people get discouraged and never want to buy indoor plants again.  Many flowering houseplants are annuals that (living on year then dying)....

TL;DR in English: Learn your plant's classification. Realize not all plants on sale as indoor or houseplants are long term residents. Determine if your plant is a green foliage plant or a plant that has flowers. Choose a plant that's easy to care for.

Once your avocado tree grows to be about 6 - 7 inches (15 - 17.7 centimeters), cut it back about 3 inches (7.6 centimeters). Cutting the top of the stem will promote more horizontal growth on your plant. Trim the tree when using both the toothpick and potting method. Regular pruning after the first year of growth should be limited but is useful for maintaining a healthy avocado tree in some cases.You can prune smaller branches as your tree matures to limit its growth or to balance the tree.  The best times to prune your tree is in the late winter or early spring. If you don't cut your avocado plant, the stem may grow too long. Do not cut the roots on the bottom. Watering your tree too much can hurt the plant. A good indication of overwatering is if the plant's leaves become a light green or translucent color. Check the soil every couple of days to make sure that it isn't dried out. You can do this by pressing a finger into the soil about an inch (2.5 centimeters) deep. A fully matured avocado tree will need about 20 gallons (75.7 liters) of water per day during the irrigation period. If you live a place where the temperature doesn't dip below 24 degrees Celsius, (75.2 degrees Fahrenheit) then you can keep your tree outdoors all year round. However, if you live in a place where it gets cold, you'll need to bring it indoors, or it will die. For your avocado to grow fruit, it must be pollinated by insects. If you have had your plant for a long time and it hasn't grown fruit, consider moving it to an outside garden or keeping a window open so that bees and other insects can pollinate it. You will have to maintain your tree for many years before it starts to produce fruit, and in the end, it may never produce fruit.

TL;DR in English: Trim the tree to promote growth. Water your tree every two to three days. Bring your avocado tree in for the winter. Make sure your tree can be pollinated.
