Plant the rose in the late spring or early summer. Lower the level of moisture of the roses. Dig your hole. Remove the container. Loosen the soil around the root ball. Place the rose bush in the center of the hole. Work the soil mixture around the roots. Water the plant.

Tell your crush you like them, and that you’d like to spend time with them. Don’t ramble on, repeat yourself, or gush about how wonderful your crush is or how you think about them constantly. Coming on too strong may make your crush feel uncomfortable. Though it may seem scary, it’s best to just be direct with this. Be honest and simply tell your crush you like them. Avoid professing your undying love or telling your crush you think about them 24/7. After all, you don’t want to creep your crush out!  For example, write, “I like you. Do you want to hang out sometime?” Don’t write, “I can’t stop thinking about you and I dream of you every night. I love you so much.” Think about why you like your crush and what draws you to them. Are they kind or funny? Are they a great dancer or a stellar guitar player? Include one or two specific reasons about how your crush has captured your attention.  For instance, write, “I admire the way you stand up for other kids,” or “I like that you work really hard in chemistry.” Avoid writing things like, “You’re really hot,” or “You’re so popular.” These aren’t good reasons to like someone, and they don’t say anything about your crush’s personality. . It can be scary to share your feelings with someone else. However, you shouldn’t put yourself down in the note or assume your crush doesn’t return your feelings. Don’t let your crush know that you’re scared of their rejection, but instead show confidence in yourself.  Don’t write something like, “I know you’ll never like me back, but I just had to tell you that I think about you all the time!” Instead, write, “I’d like to get to know you better. Do you want to hang out next weekend?” There’s a chance that your crush could show the note to their friends, which is another reason why you want to keep it simple and to the point. There’s no need to feel embarrassed about telling someone you like them. But, if you include too many personal details you may feel uncomfortable if other people read your note. Don’t say something like, “You’re...

TL;DR in English: Keep it short and simple. Tell your crush you like them. Give a few reasons why you like them. Be confident in yourself Avoid sharing anything you don’t want others to know.

A number of practices have been linked to lower incidence of gallbladder disease:  Consume polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Eat plenty of fiber. Ingest caffeine as part of your daily diet. Follow a vegetarian diet. Avoid excessive intake of refined sugars such as sucrose and fructose. Some circumstantial evidence indicates eating large quantities of legumes can increase your incidence of contracting gallbladder disease.  Consume a minimal quantities of alcohol. Consider eating several one-ounce servings per week of peanuts or other nuts.  This has proven useful in studies involving female subjects, in particular.  Eat regularly; avoid skipping meals. Nutritional supplements containing vitamin C, soy lecithin, and iron have proven useful in preventing the development of gallstones. Rapid weight loss can increase the risk of developing gallstones.  While obesity is a risk factor for gallbladder disease, you’ll want to eliminate this risk factor slowly through careful weight loss.  Slow, steady weight loss of 1-2 pounds per week is best. Identifying and then avoiding foods that cause allergic reactions in your system can reduce your risk of developing gallstones.

TL;DR in English: Follow dietary practices that have been demonstrated to prevent gallstones. Consume preventive nutritional supplements. Lose weight slowly and then maintain a healthy body weight. Pursue allergy testing and then eliminate allergenic foods from your diet.

Many department stores have a jewelry section. In this section, there is often a display of many rings where you can try on the different rings. In most cases, the rings are arranged by size, and the ring size is clearly indicated. Casually trying on rings for fun is the perfect way to get her ring size on the sly. Take her to the mall for a casual shopping trip, and plan it so that you just happen to pass by the ring display. When you pass by, act like there is a ring that has caught your interest. Usually, there will be rings for men and women. If you are a man, start casually trying on the men's rings and invite her to join in the fun. If you live together or spend the night together often, you can try to measure her ring finger while she is sleeping. The easiest way to do this is to use a piece of string. When she is in her deepest sleep, gently wrap the string around her finger so that it is snug, but not tight. If you see her finger changing color, the string is too tight.  Mark the spot where the string comes together and then use a ring size chart to figure out her ring size. You can find one at this website: http://qalo.com/pages/ring-size-chart. By doing it this way, you can measure the length of the string in inches or millimeters. This will be the circumference of her finger. You can then easily convert this into the correct ring size. If she is not a deep sleeper then this is probably not the safest option. If she wakes up, you'll probably have a hard time explaining what you're doing without arousing suspicion. This method isn't the most exact method in the world, but it can help give you an idea. Keep this as casual as possible. For example, if you are hanging out watching TV, hold her hand for awhile. Try to wait until she's really into whatever is on TV and then compare her ring finger with your fingers. Is there one that is pretty similar in size?  Do this casually, don't just grab her hand out of nowhere and start comparing all of your fingers. If you do have one finger that is quite...

TL;DR in English: Take her to the mall. Measure her finger while she is sleeping. Compare her fingers with your fingers.

Untie and unthread the laces from the lace holes in the shoe. Removing the laces will allow you to thoroughly scrub the tongue area of the shoe while cleaning. You could also clean the shoelaces later on, or just replace them. Smack the shoes together over a garbage can to knock off dirt and dust from the bottoms of the shoes. Then use a soft bristled brush to brush off any loose dirt particles and impurities on the canvas areas of the shoes. An old toothbrush works great for removing dirt, especially for reaching into tiny crevices. Any mild detergent mixed with water will work as a cleaning solution. Gentle body soap, dishwashing soap, or a small amount of laundry detergent, are all viable options. For about a cup of water, consider using about ½ a teaspoon of mild detergent. Use your old toothbrush to mix up the water and soap until some bubbles start to form. You could also use a small amount of bleach if your shoes are white, but be aware that bleach can potentially yellow the canvas fabric. A mild detergent is the safer bet. If you’re planning on cleaning the laces rather than replacing them,  drop the laces into the the cleaning solution. Allow them to soak in the solution for about 15 minutes. While you wait for the laces to soak, you can clean the actual shoe. Dip your old toothbrush into the soapy water mixture, and start scrubbing at the dirty areas of the shoe. Move the toothbrush in circles to thoroughly loosen the dirt and remove the stains.  Continue dipping the toothbrush into the soapy water mixtures as you focus on other areas of the shoe. It's okay to saturate the canvas with the soapy water solution, but try your best to keep from getting the foot bedding of the shoe wet. If you get the foot bedding wet, it won’t ruin your shoe, but it could cause damage after repeated saturation. You can rinse the canvas of the shoe by running it under a small stream of cool water from a faucet. A small stream will ensure you gently rinse off the soapy solution from the shoe without getting water into the...

TL;DR in English: Remove the shoelaces. Remove surface dirt. Mix your cleaning solution. Soak the laces. Scrub the shoe. Rinse the shoe. Scrub the laces. Dry the shoes and laces.

Before you make any moves, consider why you want to go after someone who’s already in a relationship. Do you genuinely care about this girl and have her best interests at heart? Do you really believe she’d be happier with you than she is in her current relationship? If not, stop and seriously consider whether pursuing a relationship with her is really a good idea. For example, if you’re trying to win her over just because you enjoy a challenge or because you want to get back at her current boyfriend for something, you’re probably not going to end up with a very happy or fulfilling relationship. Let's face it—you probably won't be winning the girl over if she's head-over-heels in love with her current boyfriend. But if she seems bored with her relationship or you see signs that he’s not treating her right, you may have a chance. Without acting like you're prying too much, try to get a sense of how she is really feeling about her relationship.  If you have the opportunity, try observing how your crush and her boyfriend seem together. Do you notice a lot of tension and awkward silences? Does he snap at her or put her down? Or do you see tons of laughter, smiles, and physical affection? It can also be helpful to talk to one of the girl’s close friends about how her relationship is going. If the girl you like doesn’t like you back at least a little bit, you’re not going to make much headway. Before you try to make a move, look for signals that the attraction is mutual. For example, does she:  Make a lot of eye contact when you talk to her? Laugh and smile a lot when she’s with you? Look for opportunities to spend time with you? Open up to you easily? Touch you frequently? Getting romantically involved with a girl who already has a boyfriend will automatically create a bunch of problems for your relationship. Before you attempt anything, consider:  Are you ready to deal with the pain that your actions will probably cause for her current boyfriend, and possibly for you and her as well? Are you confident that you...

TL;DR in English: Ask yourself why you want to get involved with her. Find out if she’s happy in her current relationship. Look for signs that she’s interested in you. Back off if you don’t think you can handle a complicated relationship.

This is typically the time when you will find the roses for sale and when the frost will be guaranteed to be over. These roses are more prone to frost so you will have to plant them in the right season so you don't risk it. If you've kept the roses in a container for a while or if they're just very moist, wait until the moisture goes down a bit so that you can plant them more easily. If the roses are too moist, the roots won't grow as much and you may lose some of the roses when you transfer them out of the container. The hole should be as deep as the plant's pot and at least two times as wide. This will ensure that the hole is bigger than the roots of the rose and the earth attached to them so that the roots can spread out. Use a spade or a shovel to dig this hole. Your plant may come in a plastic container or a cardboard container. You will use a slightly different method to remove each.  If you have a plastic container, cradle the main stems of the plant in your hands. Turn the container on its side and gently squeeze the container. Slide the plant free. If you have a cardboard container, first remove the bottom of the container, and then remove the sides when you set the container into the hole. Remove the container off the sides as if you were peeling an orange. This will help expose the roots a little bit and will make it easier for them to grow into the soil in the soil bed. This will also help straighten out any roots that got tangled from growing in the small rose container. “Tickle” the roots by gently scratching them until they loosen. Fill the hole with simple potting soil when you're done. Pat down the soil as you fill in the hole. This will eliminate any air pockets and will help your container roses grow strong. Water the plant, wait for the water to drain, and water it once more to get off to a good start. If you have organic mulch such as bark, pine needles, or wood chips, then you can add this to the top layer to help retain the moisture of the soil.

TL;DR in English:


Understand that if you sprayed the tape with WD-40 first, this will probably go a bit easier. Use your razor scrapper at a very shallow angle to the wood, and gently peel the tape off. Go slowly. Stop and work from the other direction, always with the grain of the wood. Understand that the first pass at removing the tape, with or without WD-40, will leave tape adhesive on the wood. Keep in mind that the razor scrapper can be used on the softened adhesive residue very effectively. Use a soft cloth, like a terry washcloth.

Instead of offering a yes or no question that will likely elicit a "no," give your child a couple of choices. That way, they feel like they have some control, but you're still getting them to do what you want.  Be sure that all of the choices you give have a desirable outcome. For example, you might give them an option between a fruit and a vegetable for a healthy afternoon snack rather than a choice between a fruit and a cookie, if you'd prefer they not eat sugary snacks. For example, if you are trying to get your child to eat some fruit, don't ask, "Do you want some fruit?" Instead, ask "Would you like blueberries or an apple?" Sometimes, your child must do something, and there really aren't any options. However, you can create the illusion there are options just by extending the deadline a little bit. For instance, if you want your child to take a bath, you could say, "Would you like to take a bath now or play for 5 more minutes and then take a bath?" When your child is saying "no," there's usually an emotion attached to that, such as frustration, annoyance, or even anger. Help the child name the feelings and work to alleviate them when possible. For instance, if your child isn't wanting to get dressed in the morning, take a moment to sit down with them. You could say, "I can see you're feeling a little sleepy and grumpy. Is that why you don't want to get dressed?" Then, you could say, "Okay, let's try again in 5 minutes." Reasoning with your child is possible at this stage. If you give reasons for your requests that are direct, to the point, and short, your child will be more inclined to listen to you.  Say “Please don’t eat your candy before you go to sleep. You might have a tummy ache later," instead of “Don’t eat candy right now! You know it’s time for bed!” Your toddler is more likely to respond positively to the first statement. It's also best to phrase your corrections in a way that shows they apply to everyone, not just your child. Instead of saying, "Don't put that toy in your mouth," you could...

TL;DR in English: Offer a couple of choices when you can. Create options even if there technically aren't any. Let your child know you hear them. Provide a basis for your requests.

Chances are that you’ll want or need to end a conversation with a person or people you don’t know. Make up a common excuse to get you out of the conversation and leave the experience positive. You might tell the others that you are:  Going to grab another drink or some more food. Making an important phone call. Heading to the restroom. Getting some fresh air. If something or someone interrupts your conversation, take it as end your interaction. This can help you find another person or group with whom to socialize or bring into the conversation.  Recognize natural pauses in the conversation. If there are a lot of “ums” and “ahs,” this may be your cue to excuse yourself. You could say “oh, I just realized how late it is” after looking at a clock or your watch or “I’ve really enjoyed talking, but I need to excuse myself and go to the restroom.” Look for a common item in the room that jogs your memory. For example, say “wow, I didn’t realize that the buffet is closing down so early. I need to grab something to eat because I haven’t had dinner yet,” after glancing towards the food. See if there is anyone else with whom you’ve chatted at the event and mention the person to your conversation partner. For example, you could say “You know, I was just talking to that gentleman Tom about this same thing. Maybe we could make our way in that direction and get his views. He had a really interesting take on the matter.” Frame your exit as beneficial to your conversation mate or mates. You can make comments such as “I don’t want to monopolize your time” to signal that you’re ready to finish the conversation. Excuse yourself with phrases such as “I’m sure don’t want me to monopolize your time with all of these interesting people around. I’ll let you go in the hope that we’ll see each other again soon.” Ask the person or group for a way to stay in contact or follow up on the conversation. This can naturally cue them that you need to excuse yourself and that the chat is over.  Ask the person for their email address or phone...

TL;DR in English: Make a common excuse. Use an interruption to your benefit. Consider the person’s time. Get contact information. Return to the original subject.

This method only works if you are working with a coordinate plane. The coordinates may already be given, or you may have a triangle drawn on a graph without the coordinates labeled. Remember that coordinates should be listed (x,y){\displaystyle (x,y)}. For example, you might be given triangle PQR, and you need to find and label point P (3, 5), point Q (4, 1), and R (1, 0). Remember to add all three coordinates. You will not calculate the correct center of gravity if you only use two coordinates. For example, if your three x-coordinates are 3, 4, and 1, add these three values together: 3+4+1=8{\displaystyle 3+4+1=8}. Remember to add all three coordinates. For example, if your three y-coordinates are 5, 1, and 0, add these three values together: 5+1+0=6{\displaystyle 5+1+0=6}. These coordinates will correspond to the triangle's center of gravity, also known as the centroid or center of mass. To find the average, divide the sum of the coordinates by 3. For example, if the sum of your x-coordinates is 8, the average x-coordinate is 8/3{\displaystyle 8/3}. If the sum of your y-coordinates is 6, the average y-coordinate is 6/3{\displaystyle 6/3}, or 2{\displaystyle 2}. The center of gravity, or centroid, is the average of the x- and y-coordinates. In the example problem, the center of gravity is the point (8/3,2){\displaystyle (8/3,2)}.

TL;DR in English: Determine the coordinates of the three vertices of the triangle. Add the value of the x-coordinates. Add the value of the y-coordinates. Find the average of the x- and y-coordinates. Plot the center of gravity on the triangle.

Meditation is a practice meant to discover the reality of the mind as it is and to help the world to remove negativity. It is possible to replace negativity with positive thoughts and actions, and to achieve physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual change with all those you come into contact with.  Meditation also makes you realize how important the construction of your body is and what goes in and out of it. As a result, people who practice meditation tend to eat healthier. They recognize the foods they are putting into their body and how it can either maintain or disrupt balance. Another product from meditation is self-awareness. Not only do you recognize what you put into your body but also who you are. Meditation allows you to clear your mind of the day’s busy activities, anger, stress, and anxiety, making you more comfortable with yourself. Meditation allows you take control over your body, especially your own nervous system and emotions. In a world full of agitation, meditation calms the mind and brings inner peace.  Certain types of meditation specifically associate with reducing stress. New studies have shown that meditation can help people deal with the symptoms of social anxiety disorders. Meditation stimulates brain signaling in the left side of the prefrontal cortex, which is associated with happy emotions. While, at the same time, decreases activity in the right side where negative emotions originate. This also improves your overall well-being. Since concentration is the foundation of meditation, it only makes sense that you will drastically improve this if you practice daily. People have claimed that not only do they have better focus and energy but they also multitask better because of the improvement in concentration. Recent studies suggest that it takes less than one month of practicing meditation to significant improvement in focus and memory. Since a vital part of meditation is the strong focus on an object or idea, it makes sense that concentration improves significantly.

TL;DR in English: Gain enlightenment. Reduce stress. Improve concentration.

If you do not take the time to properly respect horses, you should not attempt to become a horse whisperer. This means putting the needs of the horse before your own desires. You have to be able to respect the emotions and desires of the horse. This is an attitude and it inflects each interaction you have with the horse.  Learn respect for horses by spending time with them. Horse whisperers astounded the horse training world in the mid 1900s. People had a hard time accepting it could be so easy to work with a horse. Because people did not understand horses very well, previous methods of training horses were brutal and abusive. Horse whispering is a gentle response to this out-dated and ignorant way to break and train a horse. Study up on horses' perspective and horses' idea of what is the most important in life. Study how the horses' senses work. Know the places in their field of vision they can't see you, and that these blind spots can make a horse nervous. Cognition and vision in horses has been often underestimated. Their blind spots are directly in front of and behind them.  Horses are herd animals, and they seek leaders and validation from their leaders. Horses are prey animals and they are easily frightened, their primary natural defense being to run. Horses have very complex communication. Many universities have programs that are designed to help people work with horses. Check with your local two year and four year colleges to see what types of programs they have available.  Look into programs that emphasize horse training. Some schools also offer certificates in horse training, colt starting, and horsemanship that you can earn in just a year or two. Consider getting a degree in business if you are already an experienced horse trainer. A business degree can help you to understand how to manage and grow your business. Apprenticeships allow you to shadow someone who works as a horse whisperer and learn from his or her experience. Check with horse whisperers in your area to see if any apprenticeships are...

TL;DR in English: Respect that horses are powerful and complex animals. Learn how a horse works and thinks. Consider getting a specialized two or four year degree. Look for an apprenticeship to help you learn how to become a horse whisperer. Join a club. Take up a sport with horses.

However, it will work if you don't "precondition" the tape with WD-40. Work with the grain of the wood, rather than working across the grain. Keep the razor at about a 2 to 4 degree angle to the wood. You don't need to get obsessive and measure the angle; just don't dig into the wood. If the blade starts to carve wood, you will feel the resistance to motion instantly.  It may be very soft and ready to wipe off, or you may need to shoot it with WD-40 again. If you cannot wipe it off with a cloth, shoot it again and wait another 10 minutes. Use the same method: work with the shallow angle slowly, and with gentle motion. You will be amazed at how easy this is. The WD-40 softens the tape goop and lubricates the blade, so it is less likely to dig into the wood. It is smooth as silk, but it will still leave a very thin layer of tape goop behind.    Wipe the remaining very thin, almost invisible, and with the layer of adhesive off.

Heat the kiln at a rate of +500ºF (+275ºC) per hour, until it reaches 1100ºF (590ºC). This will just start to heat the bottles. If you are using ceramic molds, you may want to use a slower heating rate to reduce the risk of cracking the molds. "Soaking" the glass at this temperature ensures that every part of the glass reaches the correct temperature. Pay close attention to the steps below to find out how long to keep the kiln at each temperature. This time, heat the kiln at a rate of no more than +250ºF (+140ºC) per hour, for a little more than an hour. At this point, the glass will just begin to lose its shape, especially in the middle. You can hold the temperature here for 20 minutes if you're aiming for a flatter, wider middle, or move on after a few minutes if you want the middle to keep more of its shape. Heat at a rate of +300ºF (+165ºC) per hour if using ceramic molds, or faster if not. Stay at this temperature until the bottles have slumped to the desired appearance.  This is the step that changes most, based on your bottles, kiln, and desired appearance. Consider these numbers a starting point for your first project. Always wear eye protection while looking through a peephole. If your kiln doesn't have a window or peephole, you won't be able to check on the bottles. Lift the lid of the kiln — taking care to protect yourself from the heat — to cool the kiln rapidly until it reaches a temperature between 900 and 1100ºF (480 to 590ºC). The less time the bottle spends at high temperatures, the lower the chance of devitrification, or the forming of cloudy surface textures. Glass takes on significant stress when heated, and can crack or become brittle if it is not "annealed", a process in which the glass molecules are rearranged in a more stable pattern before they cool. There are two common ways to do this:  The simplest method, which is usually sufficient for bottles, is to let the kiln cool gradually, never by more than -150ºF (-80ºC) per hour. If you kiln cools faster than this, you'll need to briefly...

TL;DR in English: Fire the kiln to 1100ºF (590ºC). Hold this temperature for ten minutes. Heat more slowly to 1300ºF (700ºC). Heat rapidly to about 1450ºF (790ºC). Flash vent the kiln to about 1000ºF (540ºC). Anneal the glass. Let the kiln cool to room temperature.

Not only does exercising keep your body healthy, it may help prevent cancer. That’s because inactivity can contribute to the gene mutations that cause cancer. Keep in mind, however, that some cancers can't be avoided. Talk to your doctor about an exercise plan that works for you, such as the following:   Go for a walk or hike  Go for a run  Do an aerobics workout Do yoga Go for a swim  Join a local gym from sun exposure. Spending a small amount of time in the sun, such as 15 minutes a day, can be healthy for you because it helps your body make vitamin D. However, too much sun can damage your skin and even lead to skin cancer. You can prevent skin cancer by always wearing a sunscreen with at least SPF 30, covering your body with clothing, and staying in the shade.  Talk to your doctor about your skin cancer risk and how you can prevent it. When you’re spending time outdoors, wear loose-fitting clothes that cover as much of your skin as possible. Protect your scalp and face with a wide-brimmed hat. Reapply your sunscreen every few hours or as directed on the label. It’s best to avoid the sun during the hottest part of the day, which is between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Never, ever use a tanning bed or sunlamp, which are just as damaging as the sun. to reduce the risk of STDs.

Leave the electric toothbrush at home and most hotels you stay at will have a hair dryer.

TL;DR in English: Leave your valuables home. Ditch the toiletries. Leave bulky books behind. Leave home unnecessary gadgets.

Grants are written for a variety of fields and purposes, so find instruction that caters to the field you work in. Most training opportunities will be tailored to a specific subject or field. For example, if you work with a non-profit organization, find training and workshops that focus on grant writing for that field. If you need to write research grants, find training specifically for that. If you do civil work with local groups, try to find training in your immediate area. If you work on a state or national scale, take that into consideration when choosing your training seminars and courses. Make sure the instruction you choose focuses on issues relevant to organizations in your state or region. For example, if you're writing grant proposals for charities in California, the grants must focus on information specific to California. Don't take a week long course in Alabama and try to apply that information in California. Ethical discussions should be a part of any good training course. Before signing up for a course or program, research the organization or instructor's ethical standards.  A grant writer has an ethical responsibility to the organizations they work with, and it's imperative they learn ethical practices.  For example, any instructor who encourages doing commissions-based grant work is unethical. The Association for Fundraising Professionals (AFP) and the Grant Professionals Association (GPA) condemn and prohibit this practice. In a commission-based agreement, the grant writer receives a percentage of the grant amount. Many grant amounts are large sums, and that money is needed to fund the person or organization receiving the grant. For example, a 5% commission on a $5 million grant award would be $250,000. A 10% commission would be $500,000. Instead, grant writers should be paid per hour for their work (usually about $100 per hour, which is very generous). You may run into training programs that promise to “certify” those who successfully complete their courses. These certifications are not...

Insert your MRI disc into your computer. If the program loads automatically, follow the on-screen prompts. If necessary, install the viewing software. Load the study. View the images.

Remove the partridges from the brine and pat them dry with clean paper towels. You should also let the birds sit out at room temperature for about 20 minutes after pulling them out of the brine. This allows more of the excess moisture to dry, and it also drops the temperature of the meat to a warmer temperature, thereby reducing the amount of time the partridges will spend cooking in dry heat. Prepare a small roasting pan or shallow baking dish by lining it with nonstick aluminum foil. The foil is not strictly necessary, but it can make it easier to clean the dish later. Arrange both partridges in the same roasting pan, breast-side up. Ideally, the two partridges should be in a single snug layer. There should not be much excess room for them to move around. Rub the softened butter over each partridge. After applying the butter, pour the chicken broth over the partridges, as well.  When applying the butter, make sure that you get all outer sides of the skin. If there is any butter left after the outside is finished, tuck it underneath the skin. Between the salt in the brine, the salt in the broth, and the salt in the bacon (see next step), there should be plenty of salt to thoroughly season the meat of the partridges at this point. Do not add any more. Lay or wrap the bacon over the partridges, using two slices of bacon per bird.  If you choose to wrap the bacon over the partridges instead of merely laying it on top, you may need to use toothpicks to hold the bacon in place.  Note that sliced salt pork can be used instead of bacon, if desired. The bacon adds flavor to the partridges, but it is also another trick used to help keep the meat moist during the dry cooking process. Cover the entire roasting pan loosely with aluminum foil. The wrapping should be fairly loose. If you make it too tight, it could disturb the bacon lying on top of the birds. Place the roasting dish in the oven and let the partridges cook, covered, for roughly 25 minutes. Meanwhile, prepare a second small baking sheet by lining it with...

TL;DR in English: Dry off the partridge. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Place the partridge in the roasting pan. Add the butter and broth. Drape the bacon over the bird. Cover with foil. Roast for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue roasting. Let the partridge rest.

A quick and cost-effective way to try and remove a hand wart is to exfoliate it with a pumice stone. Pumice is naturally abrasive and works well to sand away the surface layer of the wart, especially if its covered by a thick callous Although pumice stone is effective at removing surface layers, it can't get to the deeper "roots" of the wart below the skin's surface. As such, a pumice stone should be used in conjunction with some sort of ointment to destroy the deeper parts of the hand wart.  Before exfoliating your wart with pumice, soak your hand in warm water for about 15 minutes to soften the skin up. Be cautious when using pumice on smaller warts not covered by a callous. It may cause an abrasion / cut and draw blood. For smaller, more fleshy hand warts, consider using a small emery board to exfoliate it. People with diabetes or peripheral neuropathy should not exfoliate warts on their hands or feet with pumice because their reduced nerve sensations may lead to tissue damage. Another way of removing successive layers of a wart is by applying salicylic acid to it. Salicylic acid dissolves the keratin (protein) of the surface of warts and any calloused skin covering them. However, it can also damage or irritate healthy skin surrounding warts, so be careful when you apply the liquid, gel, ointment or patch — up to twice daily. Before applying salicylic acid, soak the surrounding skin and file down the surface layers of the wart with pumice or an emery board (as mentioned above) so the medication can penetrate deeper. Cover with a bandage overnight for best results. It can take many weeks to get rid of a large hand wart using salicylic acid, so be patient,  Salicylic acid is an over-the-counter (OTC) wart medication widely available in most pharmacies. Some products also contain dichloroacetic or trichloroacetic acids, which help to burn the wart away. For most hand warts, a 17% salicylic acid solution or a patch at 15% strength will be effective.  Remember that some hand warts disappear due to your body's...

TL;DR in English: Exfoliate the wart with pumice. Apply salicylic acid to the wart. Try cryotherapy on the wart. Use wart creams instead. Cover the wart with duct tape.

Today, you will usually be given a disc with your images on it after your MRI. The main purpose of this is so that you can give the disc to your doctor, but there's nothing wrong with reading your MRI at home. Start by putting the disc into your computer's DVD drive.  Note: Some MRI centers may have different policies for giving patients copies of their MRI. For instance, instead of a disc, you may be given a USB drive. It's even possible to host and send MRI files online. The important thing in any case is to get the MRI files onto your computer. If you're lucky, the program will automatically load when you put the disc into your computer. In this case, simply follow the instructions on screen to install and access the program. Usually, you'll want to use the default option (or "Yes," "OK," etc.) or every prompt you are given. However, MRI viewing software is notoriously unreliable — it's something that even doctors have a hard time with. You may need to take extra action (see below). If the software doesn't load automatically, most MRI discs will come with some way to install it on the disc. In general, you'll need to open the disc to explore the files, find this installation program, and run it. The exact steps you need to take will vary depending on how your MRI center has packaged your images on the disc. If you're not having any luck or you can't find an included installer program, try downloading a free MRI viewer from the internet. This site has many links to programs that can view medical images in the standard DICOM format. Again, the exact steps you'll need to take here can vary slightly depending on the exact program you have packaged with your images. Generally, most MRI viewers will have some sort of option to load or import images that you can select from the menu bar at the top of the screen. In this case, select this option, then pick the image file on your disc that you'd like to look at.  Note that most medical imaging software refers to collections of images as "studies". You may not see...

After putting aside any cushions, clean your metal patio furniture by putting a squirt of dish soap in a bucket of water and using it with a scrub brush to scrub the surface of your furniture. A lot of modern metal frames are rust-free or rust-resistant, but for those that aren’t, you’ll need to take this extra step. Iron and steel may rust, but aluminum won’t because it is a non-ferrous metal. Rust and corrosion are inevitable when you have metal patio furniture. The key is to stay on top of it by eliminating it as soon as you notice it. Sandpaper and steel wool are great tools that you can use to buff rust or corrosion off of the metal without causing any damage. Oxidation, which is a chemical reaction between oxygen and another element, is what leads to rust and corrosion on metal patio furniture. Apply a metal polishing paste or a 1:1 white vinegar to water solution to the furniture to treat it. One of the best things that you can do for your aluminum patio furniture is to give it a basic cleaning on a regular basis. This will help the metal keep its natural luster. Avoid using brushes or abrasive cleaners because they’ll scratch the metal. Instead, apply a non-abrasive product with a soft, damp cloth. If your wrought iron patio furniture is looking a little dull or old, consider having it sandblasted or powder-coated to improve its appearance and provide some added protection.

TL;DR in English: Clean furniture made of iron, steel, and aluminum with water and a mild soap. Apply a coat of wax paste or naval jelly to furniture prone to rusting. Rub sandpaper or steel wool on rusty spots. Treat oxidation with a metal polishing paste or a vinegar solution. Stay on top of cleanings to keep your aluminum looking new. Treat scuff marks on aluminum with a non-abrasive cleaner product. Provide extra protection for your wrought iron furniture.

This is a great excuse to head to your local beauty supply emporium. Using cosmetics is one of the simplest ways to cover up blushing. Try using a primer to make sure that the rest of your make-up goes on smoothly. Then, choose a foundation that is right for you. Avoid one that is too heavy, or you will risk looking overly made-up. Instead, choose one that is lightweight but offers a high amount of pigmentation. This will give you the coverage that you are looking for.  This would be a great time to enlist some help. Go to your local department store and wander around the cosmetics counters. Enlist the aid of a salesperson to help you try out some different options until you find the one the foundation or concealer that is right for you. If your blushing is related to social anxiety, it is possible that your doctor will be able to help you. Certain medications can reduce mild anxiety, and therefore, reduce your blushes. Often, these are beta blockers or a type of SSRIs. Consult your doctor to see if this option might be right for you. Seeing a therapist can be a great way to conquer anxiety issues. If you know that blushing is caused by stress, you should consider therapy as a way to learn to work through your condition. Your therapist can help you identify your triggers and then help you learn to utilize methods to either avoid them or deal with them more confidently. Medication only covers the symptoms, but does not resolve the root issue. Going to therapy will help to address the root issue. Treating your blushes might be a lengthy process. It is important to remember to try to take some of the pressure off of yourself. Remember, blushing is common. You are not alone in dealing with this condition. The less you stress about blushing, the less it will occur. Surgery is a last resort, and used only for very extreme cases. But it has successfully helped individuals greatly reduce their tendency to blush. Typically, the surgery is called endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy. It involves cutting the nerves that...

TL;DR in English: Put on make-up. Ask your doctor about medicinal options. Consider therapy. Be kind to yourself. Learn about surgical options.

Your hiring office might request that you receive an interim security clearance. They are given only in exceptional circumstances, but you can get one within a few weeks of submitting your complete security package. Your FSO should be able to tell you whether they are seeking an interim security clearance. DoDCAF reviews the results of the investigation and decides to either grant you a clearance or not. It shouldn’t take longer than three months to receive your clearance, from start to finish. You will receive a Statement of Reasons (SOR) if you are denied. This document will identify every reason that has prevented you from obtaining a clearance. You’ll also be told how to submit a written rebuttal and/or request a hearing.  In your rebuttal, you will need to explain or deny each reason stated in the SOR. For example, you might be denied because you have a home in foreclosure. You can provide context by showing how an illness caused you to fall behind on your mortgage payments. Find supporting documentation, such as medical records. Consider hiring an attorney or security clearance consultation to help you respond to the denial. It’s possible to convince the agency that you are qualified for a security clearance, but you’ll probably need expert help. Your clearance is only good for a certain amount of time. Before it expires, you must submit a new security package and have another background check. You will be reinvestigated according to the following timetable:  Confidential clearance: every 15 years. Secret clearance: every 10 years. Top secret clearance: every 5 years.

TL;DR in English: Receive an interim security clearance. Wait for your clearance. Contest a denial. Undergo periodic investigation.

Instead of providing a person who can talk about your skills and abilities, provide a copy of your actual work which will show your skills and abilities.  For job seekers just entering the job market, consider using school work to demonstrate your abilities.  Reports, presentations, papers, essays, journal articles, analyses, etc. can all demonstrate your skills and abilities. Be sure to redact any confidential or proprietary information in the documents. Most jobs include an evaluation at some point.  And most evaluations are shared with you, so you can keep a copy.  Share these evaluations to a potential employer if you aren’t able to provide a professional reference.  This is especially helpful if your former employer isn’t allowed to provide you with a professional reference.  Be sure to redact any confidential or proprietary information in the documents. In addition to evaluations, you can also try: letters of recognition, thank you letters from clients, testimonials from clients or fellow employees, and awards you’ve won. Corporate references are those written by an employee on behalf of an employer.  The reference is then officially from the employer.  Instead of asking for a corporate reference (on company letterhead), ask for a personal professional reference from a former supervisor or co-worker.  Corporate references are becoming harder to obtain, even if you left your former employer for legitimate reasons.  Many employers are concerned about lawsuits from providing either positive or negative references for former employees. Personal professional references are references directly from another person, and not connected to the employer.  However, the person can be someone you previously worked for or with, as long as they’re providing the reference from themselves and not from their employer. Personal professional references need to ensure that they are speaking from their own personal experience working with you, and are not speaking as a representative of their employer. References do not always...

TL;DR in English: Provide previous work you’ve produced as a reference source. Show a potential employee your previous evaluations. Use personal professional references instead of a corporate reference. Provide reference letters instead of contact information. Know what types of references are being requested. Negotiate your references with a potential employer.

Caterpillar stings can result in a variety of symptoms. Depending on the type of caterpillar and any allergies you may have, symptoms can be very mild or very severe. Common symptoms include:  Itchiness and contact dermatitis, blisters, weals (welts), small red bumps, pain Acute conjunctivitis, if hairs penetrate the eyes Rash and hives Difficulty breathing Nausea and vomiting Bleeding and renal failure can occur after contact with the South American Lonomia caterpillar. If you develop blisters, large welts, or a rash that spreads, contact your doctor immediately. This is important, as some people can develop potentially deadly allergic reactions to caterpillar stings. Poison control can be reached at 1-800-222-1222 any time of the day or night, if you have any questions about how to treat a caterpillar sting. A poison specialist will answer the phone and provide you with recommendations about how to treat the sting site. If you have not had a tetanus booster in the last five to 10 years, you should get one within 72 hours of being stung by a caterpillar. This is because the sting/wound site may become open to bacteria and infection.

TL;DR in English: Watch for the development of serious symptoms. Contact your doctor if you experience worsening symptoms. Call Poison control for more information. Get a tetanus booster shot.

Your primary care physician can evaluate the extent of your injury. They can provide treatment and relief for minor strains, and if it is more serious, they can refer you to an orthopedic doctor. If needed, you may even receive a prescription for anti-inflammatory medication. These doctors specialize in the skeletal muscular system and will be able to make a sound judgement about how to best treat a ligament injury. They’ll question you about the cause of your injury, symptoms, and then advise you about the most appropriate treatment. A specialist (like a rheumatologist or orthopedic doctor) might recommend surgery or some other course of action. Depending on the severity of your injury, you’ll want to consult a personal trainer about steps you can take to promote ligament healing. Ultimately, a personal trainer will likely recommend that you limit stress to the damaged limb while working out muscles that surround the damaged ligament. Ask your doctor if they can recommend a personal trainer.

Slowly lift your arm backwards until your arm is straight and roughly parallel to your back. During the lifting motion, gradually turn your palm upward to face the ceiling.  Your arm should be mostly but not completely straight. Do this move slowly and do not lock or snap your elbow upon extension. Your upper arm and body should remain still. Slowly lower the forearm back to the starting position with your elbow bent down at a 90-degree angle. When lowering the dumbbell to start, gradually turn the hand back to beginning position, palm facing towards the body. If you are performing the exercise correctly, you should feel some tension in your tricep and forearm. Discontinue the exercise if you feel uncomfortable tension in your elbow joint. The best way to perform muscle exercises is in sets with a fixed number of repetitions. Determine the number of repetitions you can perform at a given time. Do the exercise 10 to 15 times, and if 15 reps is easy, take a brief rest of about a minute and try another set of 10 to 15. Continue to add sets until you can do three sets of 15. Then consider increasing the weight, reducing the number of reps per set, and gradually increase the number of sets. If the weight you start with is not causing any burning sensation in your muscles, you may want to use a heavier weight. Another way to increase resistance is to rest the forearm that doesn’t have the weight flat on the bench. This will increase the strain on your triceps. As with all muscle exercises, it’s most effective when you incorporate it as a regular part of your workout. Determine a number of sets you intend to do per week. Once you notice improved strength in the relevant muscle groups, slowly increase the number of weekly sets. The number of sets you should perform depends on your frequency of exercise. If you consider yourself a beginner, try three sets of 10 to 12 reps for up to a month, working the triceps once or twice a week. When it becomes easy, increase the weight, numbers of sets, and reps up to 15. Once you...

TL;DR in English: Extend your arm back. Return to the starting position. Perform in sets. Increase resistance if necessary. Perform regularly.

In addition to its other negative health benefits, smoking causes you to inhale excess air that may cause you to have excess gas. Stop smoking to reduce the amount of excess air that you swallow and help prevent excess gas. Stress and anxiety can cause you to have excess gas, so it is important to incorporate relaxation into your daily routine. Try meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises to reduce the amount of excess gas that you have as a result of stress and anxiety. Physical disorders such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), diabetes, and celiac disease will cause gas symptoms despite your best efforts to reduce gas in your system. Your doctor can prescribe medications to help you deal with IBS and other such chronic conditions.

TL;DR in English: Quit smoking. Relax daily. Talk to your doctor about prescription medications if watching your diet or taking over-the-counter diet aids aren't helping your gas issues.

. When you experience a panic attack, your breathing changes and becomes shallow and quick. This can lead to feelings of lightheadedness or chest tightness. Deep breathing is an effective and quick way to take control of your symptoms. Focusing on deep breathing can make your body experience an immediate sense of calm. You can use deep breathing when you begin to feel anxious or experience fear around a panic attack. Block any thoughts you have and instead, put your attention on your breath. Begin lengthening your breaths and breathing more slowly. Pick up a new activity that can help you relax and wind down. This can help you take a few steps back and help you to clear your head and calm your thoughts.  Take a daily class or set aside time each day for specific activities. Especially if you have a hectic work or school schedule, go straight to something that calms you after your workday is done. You can try yoga, qi gong, tai chi, progressive muscle relaxation and meditation. Music can have a calming effect and help you to cope with stress and anxiety. If you want to reduce stress and anxiety, listen to slow classical music. Listen to music you enjoy that helps induce a sense and feeling of calm. Binaural beats are a type of rhythm that can help induce certain brain states. They’ve been shown to help reduce anxiety when listened to in the delta/theta range. They are usually paired with soft, soothing music. Learn more about binaural beats by checking out How to Meditate With Binaural Beats MP3s.

TL;DR in English: Practice deep breathing Do calming activities. Listen to music.

Green is a secondary color. To create it, you'll need to combine equal parts of blue and yellow, both of which are primary colors.  "Primary" colors exist on their own and cannot be created by mixing other colors. The three primary colors are red, blue, and yellow, but you only need blue and yellow to create green. "Secondary" colors are colors obtained through the mixture of two primary colors. Green is a secondary color because it's made from blue and yellow. The other two secondary colors are orange and violet. Pure green is a mixture of pure yellow and pure blue, but if you add more blue or more yellow, you'll create a different slightly different hue of green. The two most basic variations are "blue green" and "yellow green," which are also referred to as "tertiary" colors since they fall between secondary and primary colors on the color wheel.  Blue green is made with two parts blue and one part yellow. You could also create it by mixing equal parts of green and blue. Yellow green is made with two parts yellow and one part blue. You could also create it by mixing equal parts of green and yellow. If you want to lighten green without changing its hue, you'll need to add white. If you want to darken green, you need to add black. Light shades are referred to as "tints" and dark shades are called "shades."

TL;DR in English: Mix yellow and blue. Vary the proportions to change the hue. Change the value with black or white.

If you want to quote from a book chapter in APA format, you’ll need to let the reader know where the quote came from by including the author’s last name, the date of publication, and the exact page the quote appears on inside parentheses. The final period of the sentence should appear after the parenthetical citation.  For example: Many scholars believe it is important to “help the student talk about his or her fears” (Harris, 2000, p. 29). For a chapter with 2 authors, include both author’s last names in the in-text citation, separated by an ampersand (&). For example: (Harris & Smith, 2000, p. 29). For a chapter with 3-5 authors, list all of the authors’ names, separated by commas, and include an ampersand before the last name. For example: (Harris, Smith, & Thomas, 2000, p. 29). For a chapter with 6 or more authors, you’ll just include the first author’s last name and the phrase “et al” followed by a period. For example: (Harris et al., 2000, p. 29). If you include the author’s name and/or the publication date in the sentence preceding the quote, you can omit them from the parenthetical citation. For example: According to Muriel Harris (2000), it is important to “help the student talk about his or her fears” (p. 29). The author’s name should appear first in your citation in this order: last name, first initial. There should be a period after. Then include the publication date in parentheses, also followed by a period.  For example: “Harris, M. (2000).” For a chapter with 2 authors, list both names in the same order (last name, first initial), separated by a comma and an ampersand. For example: “Harris, M., & Smith, J. (2000).” For a chapter with 3-7 authors, list each name in the same way, separated by a comma, with an ampersand preceding the last name. For example: “Harris, M., Smith, J., & Thomas, E. (2000).” For a chapter with more than 7 authors, list the first 6 in the same way, then add an ellipsis (…) and list the last author’s name. For example: “Harris, M., Smith, J., Thomas, E., Jones, D., Hale,...

Not all love can last. Whether it is because you are fighting more often than usual, life moves you apart, or your interests slowly drift away, some couples fall out of love. The spark cannot stay alive always, and though it hurts to break off a loving relationship, sometimes it is for the best. Love is not an obligation. You should want to willingly spend free time with someone you love, and if you do not you need to examine why things are different now. Do you just need some time alone, or is there a more serious issue in your relationship?  Everyone has times they hope to be alone, but this is different from constantly ignoring or regretting the time with the one you love. You should never feel exhausted or sad after spending time together. This is not about planning what to do for lunch, but bigger life goals. If you begin prioritizing your life without thinking about where your partner fits into the picture, you've lost the feelings of commitment necessary to stay in love. Being in love with someone means they are on your mind and a part of your foreseeable future. This is true of all love, romantic and otherwise. If you no longer want to touch, tell each other what you enjoy about each other, be near each other, or have a conversation, then something is up. Again, these things are easy when you are in love, but can feel strained or even embarrassing when your love fades. It is often as simple as asking yourself, "Do I feel in love anymore?" You might not be able to point to a reason or flaw that caused you to fall out of love, but this is an unfortunate fact of life. People grow and change, and sometimes they grow apart. While you may still like the person, the love may be gone, and it is unlikely to come back once it has faded. It may be hard to break-up with someone, but trying to fake or force your love will only lead to more pain down the road.

TL;DR in English: Know that, sometimes, love fades naturally. Know that you should want to spend time together, not feel obligated. Know that making plans without thinking about your partner is an early sign that you are losing love. Notice if signs of intimacy or affection have faded. End a relationship if you don't feel like you love someone anymore.

Using steel wool or a metal scraper can scratch and dent stove tops, which is particularly obvious on black surfaces. Use a wooden or plastic scraper or spatula to remove crusted-on stains without damaging the stove. Hold the scraper at about a 45° angle, with the bottom of the scraper angled in the direction you are scraping. Make a paste of baking soda and distilled white vinegar and apply this to any problem areas. The paste should be roughly 4 parts baking soda to 1 part vinegar, but add more vinegar if necessary to make it wet enough to stick together. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes, then gently scrub the stain with a scouring pad. It should be loosened and come off easily. If you don’t have any vinegar on hand, you can substitute the same amount of hydrogen peroxide. It’s best to avoid generic scouring pads, as they can be overly abrasive and make visible scratches in black stove tops. Instead, look for scouring pads designed specifically for stove tops, which will typically say “stove top” or “stove cleaner” in the label. Several home product brands carry cleaning fluids formulated especially for cleaning stove tops. If you have particularly tough stains on your stove, avoid harsh chemical cleaners and look for a product that is designed for stove tops.

TL;DR in English: Remove crusted food with a wooden or plastic scraper. Apply a baking soda and vinegar solution. Scrub stains with a stove top scouring pad. Use a stove top cleaning fluid.

Spread out a large blanket or towel to give your baby a spot to play, eat, and crawl around. You may wish to pack a few extra towels so you will have a dry, sand-free towel for your baby to use. Using a large beach umbrella is a great way to shield your baby from the heat and the sun’s harmful rays. Make sure to use a light-colored umbrella that will reflect the heat. This space will provide a cozy, shady area for your baby to play in the sand. Take along a smaller umbrella that you can easily clip onto your baby’s stroller. Pack a cooler with your baby’s favorite snacks and drinks. Bring along bottled milk, water, or juice to keep your baby well-hydrated throughout the day. Opt to take some portable, pureed baby food packets so your baby can enjoy an easy snack. Take along healthy finger foods like carrots, bananas, or pieces of cheese if your little one is eating solid foods.  Find a shady spot that isn’t in a windy area to breastfeed your child at the beach.  Bring clean, lukewarm water to the beach with you. This will be useful to use as a rinse if your baby gets sand in their mouth or eyes. Your baby’s clothes will be sandy and damp after a day at the beach, and you may go through more diapers than usual to keep their bottom dry. Pack an extra pair of clothes to keep your baby dry and clean on the way home, and store extra diapers in your diaper bag. A small inflatable pool can be a useful tool for a day at the beach with your baby. The pool can serve as a safe playpen for your little one, or it can be a great space to take a nap. Make sure you do not leave your child alone even though your baby may be in a safe confinement. Prop an umbrella over the baby pool to give it shade. Make sure, however, that there is plenty of ventilation for your baby. You and your family may make many wonderful memories on the beach. Make sure you capture them all. You can buy disposable waterproof cameras at beach shops, convenience stores, or online. You can also buy a waterproof case for your normal camera at a camera...

TL;DR in English: Take some large towels and a blanket. Pack an umbrella. Bring water and snacks. Carry a change of clothes and extra diapers. Inflate a small baby pool. Bring a waterproof camera along.

This can be indicated by kissing between the canaries and the female beginning to putting nesting material in the nest. If both are in condition, your male and female canaries will begin to "kiss" through the bars of the wire partition by touching beaks. Kissing may happen right away or it may take a few days after you place the canaries near each other.  Once they are ready to breed, you can put them in the same cage. Watch for any fighting. If they begin to fight, separate them immediately and watch for signs that they're still both in condition. However, mating can be relatively aggressive, so be sure that you are not witnessing breeding instead of regular fighting. This will begin with the male courting the female canary. Once she is ready, she will crouch down, signaling her willingness. The male will then mount the female is short, successive bursts. The female canary can lay anywhere from 2 to 6 eggs. The female will lay one egg a day, usually in the morning. It typically takes 14 days for canary chicks to hatch. They should hatch without any assistance. This usually happens when the chicks are around 3 weeks of age. At first the mother canary will stay with the babies all the time and the father will bring the mother food. Then, gradually, the father will take over feeding the chicks, making sure that they get enough to eat. Once the chicks begin eating on their own and are fully fledged, meaning their wing feathers have developed enough to fly, you may remove them to their own cage. At this point you should also separate the parents again as well.

TL;DR in English: Place the canaries together once there are signs they are ready to breed. Watch for breeding behavior. Look for eggs in the nest. Keep chicks with male and female canaries until they begin eating on their own.

If diet and exercise alone do not lower your cholesterol levels, you may need to take medication. If you are concerned about your weight, your cholesterol levels, or your overall lifestyle, talk to your doctor about developing a plan and taking cholesterol medication. Statins are a class of drugs that slow down or stop one of your body's enzymes responsible for producing cholesterol. Statins are one of the most successful medications for lowering cholesterol levels. Some studies suggest statins can reduce LDL cholesterol by 20 to 55 percent.  Common statins include atorvastatin (Lipitor), rosuvastatin (Crestor) and simvastatin (Zocor).  Some people experience muscle pain, joint pain, and changes in liver enzyme levels. Do not take statins if you have liver disease or are pregnant. Ezetimibe helps lower the amount of cholesterol absorbed by the body. It can be taken in conjunction with statins, but even on its own Ezetimibe has been shown to reduce LDL levels by 18 to 25 percent. Ezetimibe may cause joint pain, diarrhea, and sleepiness. Do not drive or operate machinery until you know how Ezetimibe will affect you. Bile acid resins are a class of drugs that bind to cholesterol-rich bile acids in the intestines, then eliminate them through bodily wastes. This class of medications has been shown to reduce LDL levels by 15 to 30 percent.  Common bile acid resins include cholestyramine (Prevalite), colestipol (Colestid) and colesevelam (Welchol).  This class of medication may need to be taken with other cholesterol medications to effectively reduce cholesterol levels.  Possible side effects include stomach pain and constipation.

TL;DR in English:


Coat the inside of a small plastic bowl with oil. Cut the bottom out of a plastic cup. Mix your cement. Fill the bowl with cement. Insert the cup cut-side-down into the bowl. Fill the cup with more cement. Wait for the cement to set. Tip the mushroom out of the bowl, then cut the plastic cup off. Paint the mushroom.

In gauging weather trends and analysis, the absolute value of the pressure is nowhere nearly as significant as its "trend." Namely: is the barometric pressure rising, is it falling, or is it holding steady? Watch the barometer needle and record its movements.  The dials of older barometers often feature artistically-drawn backgrounds to indicate weather conditions like storms, strong winds, and clear skies. For all their aesthetic, these backgrounds can be misleading. The movement of the barometer needle has far more bearing upon the coming weather. If you have an old, traditional mercury tube-type barometer, then you may need to watch the meniscus: the highest curve of the liquid mercury that fills the cylinder. To determine the trend in a barometer, you need to compare the current pressure reading to a past pressure reading. Calculate the difference in pressure between the current reading and the reading from an hour ago. In many barometers, you can manually set a needle to mark a point on the pressure gauge. The needle will remain at this point to help you gauge recent trends in the pressure. The higher you go, the lower the pressure. This means that a barometric pressure that would send someone straight through the trapdoors of a storm cellar at sea level along the coast of Costa Rica would be perfectly commonplace in the midst of summer in the mile-high city of Denver.

TL;DR in English: Look for the trend. Look at the reading. Know that atmospheric pressure decreases more or less exponentially with altitude.

Look on the website to see what the directors are looking for from the audition. When auditioning for a theater company, make sure you know some background information (past shows, date established, awards won, etc.) on the company. The casting people will be pleased to hear something different than "Not much" if they ask you what you know about the company. Some things to look for include:   Overview of the show/event: If you can, learn as much about the play, commercial or scene as possible. Being able to talk convincingly about why you want the part will help you get the part.  The Director/Casting Agent: You're not going to get details on their personal life, but learn about their requirements and expectation of you. You need to know what the director or casting agent expects from you and give them more then they expect from you.  Your Role Are you supposed to be funny? Dark and serious? Oftentimes this is said up front, but you may need to do some character research, especially if it is a play or event that's already been shown.  The Logistics: When are you needed for practice or performances? Nothing hurts your reputation like earning a role, but turning it down because you can't actually play the part. Know that, in the room, it is okay to check your notes every now and then, but you'll always be more convincing if you have the words mostly memorized. This lets you focus more on acting and less on reading. If the audition requires you to memorize a monolog, make sure you have it completely memorized and are ready to act it out.  If the part has multiple characters, get a few friends to practice with you. While you could just practice your lines, having someone to help with timing and reactions will make you stronger. Don't just read the lines blindly -- pick a way to read the lines (cold, happy, funny, depressed, professional, etc.) that fits the character and practice reading the script in this tone. All good monologues have movement -- meaning the character is in a different place emotionally than...

TL;DR in English: Do your homework on the gig. Run through the materials back and forth, until you can perform the audition without a script or notes. Practice reading monologues from scratch, or "cold reading" to get used to auditioning under pressure. Get a good night's sleep Wear presentable, neutral clothing. Do not change your appearance for an audition. Have an idea what to expect to avoid any surprises.

While the phone lines are usually down after a natural disaster, intermittent internet access may be available. You'll have more luck contacting someone in Puerto Rico through one of these apps than by a standard text message or phone call. For instance, try WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger to contact your friends or family in Puerto Rico. When natural disasters happen, someone usually sets up a social media group to connect family members with those affected. Post updates asking about specific people or look through posts to see if anyone you know has updated on the page.  Try searching for the name of the disaster on social media outlets like Facebook. These pages also provide vital updates to those affected by the disaster. People in a natural disaster can check in as safe, while you can search the site for your loved ones or reach out to them. For instance, many people used this site in Puerto Rico after the 2017 hurricanes. When you go to the site, click on "Search Registrants," and then put in their name and a phone number or address for them. This website is a section of the American Red Cross website. You can find the site at https://safeandwell.communityos.org/. If the person you are trying to get in touch with has a life-threatening health problem, use the main number for the American Red Cross. The number is 1-800-733-2767. If you can't get through on that line, you can call the public inquiry line at 1-202-303-4498 but only 8-5 EST during weekdays. Most phone lines will be down, and the few that are still up are needed for emergency purposes. Of course you want to know what happened to your loved ones, but you could be stopping them from getting the help they need by tying up the lines. Keep any calls you make short and to the point.

TL;DR in English: Use internet messaging apps to make contact. Find social media groups dedicated to the current disaster. Contact people through the Red Cross Safe and Well website. Call the Red Cross for someone with a serious health condition. Stay off the phone lines as much as possible.

Even if you've e-filed your exhibits, bring at least 3 copies of each exhibit to court with you so it can be considered during trial. If you have a jury trial, you may need more than 3 copies. The clerk of court can tell you exactly how many copies you'll need on the day of trial. You can also find this same information in your court's local rules. Before you can admit a document, photograph, or other exhibit into evidence, you must show to the judge that it is what you claim it is, and that it hasn't been altered in any way. Review the court's rules of evidence so you know how to authenticate the exhibit. The rules may differ depending on the type of document it is. Another way to lay the foundation for an exhibit's admission is to have a witness state on the stand that the document is known to them and that it is what you claim it is.  Ask the judge if you can approach the witness. Give them a copy of the document and ask them questions about it to establish that they can identify it. For example, if you are suing a general contractor for not completing a home renovation, you may want to admit your receipt to show that you paid the contractor. You could call the contractor as a witness to lay the foundation that the receipt is legitimate and was issued by them after receipt of your payment. Once you've laid the foundation, present a physical copy of the evidence and say "I move that Plaintiff's Exhibit A be admitted into evidence" (or whichever letter or number it is). If the judge agrees, you'll hand a copy to the bailiff to give to the judge.  If the judge refuses to admit the document, it will not be considered by either judge or jury when deciding your case. If you believe the judge is in error, you may have the opportunity to appeal the judge's decision not to admit your evidence. Make a note on your copies or on your outline of which exhibits are admitted and which aren't. In some courts, you'll mark exhibits yourself before you enter the courtroom. In other courts, you'll have the clerk or another...

TL;DR in English: Bring physical copies of your exhibits to court. Authenticate documents or photographs. Present exhibits to witnesses. Ask the judge to admit the evidence. Have your exhibit marked.

While South Carolina is the only state that has outlawed tobacco screens entirely it's important to know that more than half the states in the United States have provisions in place that prevent employers from establishing hiring practices or incorporating punishment based on your activities outside of work, including tobacco use. If you live in one of the 29 states with these provisions in place, you don't need to submit for a tobacco screen willfully.  Click here for a state-by-state breakdown of tobacco screening laws. "Tobacco tests" are usually performed by screening for cotinine, and are usually some combination of mouth swabs, urinalysis, and blood testing. Cotinine is the primary metabolite of nicotine. Nicotine leaves the body in a few hours, but cotinine has a longer half-life, and is usually present for up to a week.  Cotinine has a half-life of 16 hours, meaning that half of all the trace leaves your body every 16 hours, or so. If you're a light smoker, most of it should be gone in 48 hours, depending on how much you smoke, but most tests will pick up trace amounts, especially in the mouth swab. Cotinine tests screen for smokable as well as smokeless tobacco, including vape pens and other e-cigarettes. Depending on how much you smoke, there's no way of knowing how much time you'll need to be all the way in the clear, but with the right combination of techniques, you can be fairly confident that you'll pass if you stop using any kind of nicotine 3-4 days before your test for lighter smokers and 5-7 days for heavier smokers. Read the next section to learn how to quit for a week, or more.  If you smoke in excess of a pack a day, may need to quit smoking farther out ahead of your test. It can't ever hurt to stop earlier, if possible. If you're a social smoker, or only smoke occasionally, just make sure you quit a few days leading up to the test and you should be fine. Any time you've got to pass a urine screen and you're worried about cutting it close, start increasing the amount of fluids you're...

TL;DR in English: Make sure the tobacco test is being performed legally. Understand how the screen works. Stop using all kinds of tobacco at least 5-7 days before the test. Flush out your system by drinking diuretics. Don't blow money on "detox" drinks. Blame second-hand smoke.

You can use any type of oil you want. The oil is simply there to make de-molding the mushroom cap easier. If you can't find a plastic bowl in the right shape and size, you can use a different material. Plastic is easier to use because of how flexible it is. This will eventually make the stem, so make sure that the shape and size suits the cap. If the cup is too small for the bowl, try a different container, such as a tall yogurt container. The cups that you get iced coffee in are great for this! Every brand will be a little different, so follow the instructions on the package. Ideally, it should have a slushy-like consistency. Make sure that you mix enough to fill both the bowl and the cup. You can use your trowel to smooth it down, or you can leave it rough for a more organic look. Gently tap the bowl to remove any air bubbles. Make sure that the cup is centered and straight. The wider part of the cup should be facing you. Use your trowel to smooth the cement down. This will help the mushroom stand upright. Once again, gently tap the cup to remove any air bubbles. If you will be using this mushroom on a lawn, consider pushing a galvanized steel nail into the stem. This way, the nail will stick into the lawn and help anchor the mushroom. How long this takes depends on the type of cement you are using, how big your mushroom is, and the weather conditions in your area. Use a craft blade to cut straight down the plastic cup first. Then, cut around the top edge of the stem, where the stem meets the mushroom cap. Carefully pull the plastic cup off. Part of the plastic cup will remain embedded in the cement, which is fine. Paint the stem and the underside of the mushroom cap white. Next, paint the cap a bright color. Let the paint dry, then add white spots onto the cap. Let the paint dry again, then seal the paint using a clear, outdoor sealer.  If you need to apply more coats of paint, allow the first one to dry completely. Turn it into a mosaic mushroom by attaching glass gems to the cap using tile adhesive, then...

Your oven will need to be nice and hot when you put the cookies in, so start heating it up right before you prep your cookie dough. This will help to ensure that it is ready to go when you are ready to bake your cookies. To prevent the cookie dough from sticking to your pan, it is a good idea to line the cookie pan with a sheet of parchment paper, even if the pan is non-stick. Place a sheet of parchment paper over the entire surface of the pan.  If you do not have parchment paper, then spray the pan with some non-stick cooking spray. You can also use a small amount of butter or oil if you do not have non-stick cooking spray.

TL;DR in English: Preheat oven to 350 °F (177 °C). Line a cookie pan with parchment paper.

Check that it is clean; if not, give it a gentle wipe and make sure it is dry before proceeding. Wrap each piece separately if freezing more than one piece. Try to match the bag size to the size or amount of ginger being frozen. Push down to expel as much air as possible before sealing tight. Remove a whole ginger for use at a time. Allow to thaw, then use as usual. If making a stir-fry and you have a decent sharp knife, slices can be made before the ginger thaws; it will thaw quickly during the cooking process.

TL;DR in English: Choose a fresh, unblemished piece of ginger (or more pieces, as required). Wrap the ginger piece or pieces in plastic kitchen wrap or foil. Place the piece or pieces inside a resealable freezer bag. Place in the freezer.

It's in the menu on the left-hand side of the screen. It's under the Friends heading. This will bring up your list of friends you've added on Steam.  It's located at the bottom of the on-screen keyboard. If you're unsure of your friend's username, it's best to ask your friend what name they use on Steam. If your friend has a common name, you may need to scroll down the page to find the correct user.  The user will be added to your friend's list once they have accepted your invite.

That way, you can start the ball rolling with the invitation, and if you need guests to bring things for the theme, this can be included in the invitation. For example, if you do a girly award show theme make little awards and try to find a red carpet. Or, tell all of your guests to come in their girliest fanciest clothes. Even if you only have one guest coming you can still have some fun following these steps. It's a good idea to keep the group small, anything above six girls will become a bit rowdy and difficult for you to ensure everyone is having a good time. Plus, consider where everyone will fit for sleeping. Don't pass them out at school, people will get jealous. Send them through the mail. If that isn't possible, do it when people won't notice too much. Make sure you list anything they will have to bring, like sleeping bags, pillows, CDs, etc.

TL;DR in English: Think of a theme first before you send invitations out. Make a guest list. Send out the invitations.

Evidence shows that attractive women often gravitate toward less attractive men with wealth and status. You should make your accomplishments obvious. Studies have shown, for example, that women find men considerably more attractive when they are driving a fancy car. The “halo effect” suggests that attractive people are considered better in all areas of their life. However, it also seems to work the other way. That is, if you exhibit positive personality traits, like kindness, people will be more likely to see you as attractive. Try volunteering for non-profits or pursuing a career that helps people. If you have trouble committing the time to those things, just aim to be nice in your daily life. Hold doors open for people, help people with bags, or show people how to get around when they are lost. Women are more likely to find men attractive when they open up to them and appear vulnerable. When you are open about your feelings women will feel closer to you, making you more attractive both emotionally and sexually. Men are often initially regarded as a threatening. To put women at ease you should take a cautious stance: speaking and moving slowly, using small gestures, and leaning away. Once she suggests that she is at ease by leaning in, making eye contact, and smiling, you can change your posture. Act more energetic, speak faster, make broad gestures, and lean forward. Women are attracted to leaders, particularly when men are in charge of a group that they are part of. Not everyone can be the CEO of a corporation. But if you have a leadership role in a club, campus organization, or political group, women will be more likely to see you as a leader. Humor is a sign of intelligence and social skill. Women look to men who are funny as both people of status and someone whose company they will enjoy. Cultivating a sense of humor is important to establish relationships. Pay attention to comedians you enjoy, think about what makes them funny, and consider whether you can imitate their style. Read and watch TV to stay...

TL;DR in English: Excel in life. Be kind. Express your feelings. Take it slow. Lead. Make her laugh. Be interested, but only in her. Excite her. Live an outdoorsy lifestyle.

It's easy to get really frustrated and take it out of your kids, making punishments much harsher than is perhaps appropriate. Avoid this by setting priorities, deciding ahead of time which behaviors get punished most harshly and which only result in a time-out. Hitting and biting, as well as anything which could cause them serious injury are usually worthy of the more serious punishments, but you will have to decide what is best for you. Do not threaten your child with a punishment and then not deliver. This teaches your child not to take you or the possibility of consequences seriously. It is better not to react at all than to threaten and then not do anything. Don't feel bad for you child partway into a punishment and then relent. It can be hard, because you love them and you want them to be happy, but it is important for them to fully experience the punishment and not come to expect that they can manipulate your emotions into getting them out of trouble. Negotiating is the quick route to a habitually misbehaving and disobedient child. Just don't. They get what you give them or they get nothing. They'll learn eventually. Be strong. Small children will not be able to understand subtleties so try to create a consistent environment by keeping rules the same across basic situations. It is also a good idea to show them that there is a place and time for certain behaviors, so that they don't feel flat-out banned. For example, establish that it is okay to yell but only outside. Try not to add modifiers to rules such as these, since it only confuses them. Wait until they reach around age 4 before adding conditions.

TL;DR in English:
