Getting vitamin D requires you to spend some time (15 to 30 minutes) with a good amount of your skin in direct sunlight. Keeping vitamin D levels high can produce up to 20% more testosterone. Consider talking to a medical professional about vitamin D supplements if you work inside all day and cannot spend time in the sun. Moderate to mild zinc deficiencies have been shown to lower testosterone levels. Talk to a knowledgeable healthcare provider about a zinc supplement. Some studies have shown that certain herbal supplements may help to increase testosterone or combat the effects of low testosterone. Some of these herbal supplements include:  Tribulus terrestris, which has shown an increase in sexual activity in animal studies. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Withania somnifera (ashwaganda), which has been reported in preliminary clinical trials to increase sperm quality. Most studies have used up to 450 mg four times a day. Ginkgo biloba, which increases testosterone synthesis. Dosage was 270 mg of ginkgo extract 4 times a day. Follow manufacturer’s instructions. Yohimbe, which has been used to increase sexual interest and treat erectile dysfunction. Doses vary but ranged from 5.4 mg (3 times a day) to 10.8 mg (3 times a day). Follow manufacturer’s instructions.

TL;DR in English: Get some sun. Take a zinc supplement. Consider herbal supplements.

This is where the footing, or foundation, of your column will be. It's important that you build the footing down into the ground as opposed to on the surface so that your column is stable. The depth and dimensions of the hole will depend on several factors, like the size of your column, how much weight it will support, and the kind of ground you're building on. If you're not sure, do some research online or consult with a professional mason.  As a rule of thumb, the hole should be at least 12 inches (30 cm) deep. Make sure the hole is at least 4 inches (10 cm) longer and wider than your column will be so you have enough room to build the footing. Verify that the bottom of the hole you dug is level before you proceed. If it's not level, your brick column won't be either, so you'll want to level it first. Cut a wooden plank or stud into 4 pieces—1 piece for each side of the frame—and nail them together to make a square frame. Then, place the frame in the hole you dug so it's laying flat on the bottom of the hole. Since you'll be using the empty inside of the frame to make your footing, make sure the frame is 4 inches (10 cm) longer and wider than your column will be when measured from the inside edges of the wood and not the outside edges. For example, if you want to build a concrete column that's 24 by 24 inches (61 cm × 61 cm), you'd want to make a frame that's 28 by 28 inches (71 cm × 71 cm) when measured from the inside edges of the frame. and let it dry completely. Once you've poured the concrete, take a piece of wood and drag it across the surface of the frame to scrape off any excess concrete and smooth out the surface so it's level for your column. Then, wait for the concrete to dry.  How long it takes for the concrete to dry will depend on the type of concrete you use. Some concrete can take weeks to fully cure, while others are designed to dry in a few hours. If you want to speed up your project, try using a fast-setting concrete mix so you can pour the concrete and start working on your column all on...

TL;DR in English: Dig a square, level hole where you want your brick column to go. Make a frame that's 4 inches (10 cm) longer and wider than the column will be. Fill the frame with concrete Remove the wooden frame and dry-lay the first course of bricks you'll be using. Trace the outer and inner edges of the course, then remove the bricks.

This recipe calls for sodium citrate, which is a type of salt that works as an emulsifier. This means that when it is added to cheese sauce, it reduces the cheese’s acidity, makes the proteins in the cheese more soluble, and prevents it from separating. Instead, it helps to create a smooth, creamy texture to your cheese sauce.  Look in speciality food stores and online for sodium citrate. It looks like salt and tastes salty and slightly sour. You will only need a very small amount of sodium citrate in the sauce for it to do it’s job, so it is not upping the sodium level of your cheese sauce. If you can't find sodium citrate, you can use 2 teaspoons of citric acid (or sour salt) and 2.5 teaspoons of baking sodium as a substitute. Citric acid, or sour salt, can be found in the kosher section of most grocery stores. You should also use high-quality cheese for your fancy cheese sauce, such as Pepper Jack, Gouda, or Gruyère. These cheeses will likely come in blocks. Use a grater to make 1 cup of your chosen fancy cheese. In a medium saucepan, mix together the sodium citrate and the water, beer, or wine.  There should be enough liquid mixture to just cover the bottom of your saucepan; the entire ½ cup may not be necessary so pour the liquid in a little bit at a time. Place the medium saucepan on a medium heat and bring the liquid to a low simmer, but not a full boil. There should be small bubbles forming on the surface of the liquid. Add the cheese to the pan and stir with a spoon until the cheese has melted and is blended with the liquid. Thanks to the sodium citrate, the sauce should have a smooth, creamy consistency. Put your sauce in a bowl and dip chips or vegetables into it, or pour it over chips to make nachos. You can even pour it on top of steamed vegetables to make them more delicious.  The sauce should maintain its creamy texture, even as it begins to cool. This sauce can be stored for up to a week in the refrigerator.

TL;DR in English: Gather your ingredients. Mix ½ teaspoon sodium citrate with ½ cup liquid. Heat the liquid mixture. Add the grated cheese to the pan. Serve the sauce.

Oftentimes, loneliness stems from the thought that your own experience is drastically different from that of others. But we all experience the same emotions, from joy and love to disappointment and anger. Consider how the human experience is universal. If you're feeling lonely, it can help to have a brief conversation with the grocery store clerk or the bank teller. This will help you feel a connection with someone, even if you don't have a lengthy conversation with this person. Even a simple act like saying hello to your neighbor can help you feel more connected. This might even be the impetus you need to start a conversation that will result in a lifelong friendship. You might feel lonely because you're shy or because you're new to a school. One of the ways to overcome loneliness is to be brave and take a risk. Put yourself out there by starting a conversation with someone who seems interesting. Or, ask an acquaintance if they'd like to go on a hike with you. You never know. This person might feel just as lonely as you and might appreciate your invitation. You may feel lonely because you have specialized interests. Perhaps you're really into mountain biking, but you don't know anyone else who does this too. Search online for a club in your community that does this activity. If you can't find someone in your local area, chances are you will be able to locate a group that gathers virtually. When you feel lonely, you tend to focus on your own feelings and how your needs are not being met. If you turn your attention to the needs of others, you can redirect your emotions. Find a nonprofit organization in your community. You can volunteer at an animal shelter, for example.

TL;DR in English: Think about the similarities between you and others. Make small-talk with people you interact with. Put yourself out there. Connect with people with similar interests. Volunteer in your community.

Casually proposing that the two of you do something together can remove some of the anxiety and worry you may feel about asking her outright about her feelings for you. For example, you can ask her what she is doing tonight or this weekend. If her plans are open or not fixed, you can share what you would like to do and ask her if she wants to go to along with you.  If she says she’s busy, it could mean she’s not interested but it could also mean she’s actually just busy. Ask her if there are any other days that she would be free to do something and see what she says. For example, you can ask: What are you doing this weekend?” If she says “Nothing” or “I was thinking of seeing a movie,” then you can say “I was planning on going to the movies, want to go together?” If a girl is texting you about a restaurant she really wants to try, a test she is worried about, a movie she would like to see, or some school event like a party or dance, she may want you to ask her about it. Follow-up on her conversation with a subtle invitation to do the things she is interested in, with you.  For example, if she has been talking about trying a new pizza place nearby, tell her you have also been wanting to try it and suggest that you go together. If there is a school event coming up that she has been texting you about, tell her you have been looking forward to it and see if she wants to go with you. Maybe she’s been texting with you about an upcoming exam in a class you both share. This is a great opportunity for you to suggest getting together to study for it. If all else fails and you still aren’t sure how a girl feels about you, you can always just ask her directly. If she is really into you, it’s unlikely she will say “no” if you ask her about it. Depending on how bold or certain of yourself you are feeling, you can let her know you like her first, and then ask her if she feels the same.   By making the first move, you are taking the pressure off, which she might appreciate, especially if she is shy. Be prepared for her to...

An inventory test will determine how well they can already spell. You might show them pictures and ask them to spell the word. You can also do a multiple choice test, in which they must select the correctly spelled word from a list of misspellings.  Do not grade this test for points. This test is simply to see where the student is currently. You should make sure to test the learner every week or two to see how much they have learned and which concepts they are still struggling with. If the student is struggling with a particular concept, make sure to focus on those areas. Create new lists of words that tackle this unique problem. Continue to work on these concepts until the student has mastered what they were struggling with.   Include words that you know your student can achieve so the list is achievable. For example, if your student can't figure out when to use “gh,” make a list of words that includes “through,” “night, “borough,” and “brought.” Have them memorize these words if they don't understand the rules. If you have multiple students, try to create a unique list for each of them. For large classes, break the students up into groups based on their level of spelling. Make a list for each group. There are many irregular rules of spelling in the English language. While word study and phonics can help, students may need to memorize trickier words. Show the student multiple ways of studying these strange words.  Flashcards are a great tool. On one side, put a picture of the word, and on the other, spell it out. Show the student the picture, and ask them to spell the word. Review words you've already learned for a few minutes everyday.  Reading simple picture books can help students recognize words and letters. Ask students to match the words with the picture. This will help them associate the letters of the word with the meaning. Some students may require more assistance than others. In addition, some people may have disadvantages when it comes to learning spelling. Be patient and sensitive with their...

TL;DR in English: Give the student a spelling inventory test. Make a unique spelling list based on the student's need. Demonstrate how to study spelling. Provide extra assistance for students with learning difficulties.

Low-waisted flares, also known as hipster jeans, feature an extremely low waist that starts just above the pubic bone and button or zip several inches below the navel. Hipster flares were a very popular look in the early 2000s. Flared jeans are definitely making a comeback, but not the low-waisted hipster versions, which can look dated. Go for high-waisted flares that sit above the hips and button above the navel.  Look for flares that have clean lines and fit comfortably around your waist. As a bonus, high-waisted flares can elongate your legs. If your legs are on the shorter side, try this look to add a little length. Long flares used to be fashionable, but the new silhouettes are cropped or hit just above the ankle. If you’re unable to find a pair with the length you want, hem them yourself or have them tailored for you. Avoid the super-long flares that “puddle” on the floor.  Avoid buying flares that overwhelm your legs. You want them to be fitted at the knee and then gently flare out. A few designers have created lines of “petite” fitting flares, which feature a much-shortened bottom hem and a re-working of the classic shape to flatter small frames. Allison Izu is one such designer. When flares were first popularized in the 1960s, embellishments like patches, jewels, eye-catching stitching and frayed hems were popular, and they came in every wash under the sun. The flares being reintroduced into fashion today are no-frills – they aren’t overly “retro” and have little to no embellishment. The favored washes are “clean,” which means there’s no fading or distress on the material and the shade of denim appears uniform.  Look for flares with clean washes in classic true-blue and dark indigo. If you prefer lighter washes, just make sure the color is uniform. For example, icy “rinsed-out” looking hues are popular right now. While denim is probably the most popular material for flared pants, they are certainly not the only choice. Trouser flares are essentially dress pants made with fluid materials and a very...

TL;DR in English: Opt for high-waisted flares. Go for cropped or ankle-length flares. Stick to clean washes with minimal embellishment. Invest in a pair of trouser flares.

Decide on the height you want, then sketch the basic outline of the doll’s body, including head, torso, and limbs. Press lightly with your pencil so you can erase these lines later. Make sure to draw the doll in a pose that will be easy to put clothes on, such as standing up straight with the arms down and slightly lifted away from its sides.  Try sketching out some ideas on scratch paper first, then drawing your doll on a thicker piece of paper, such as a sheet of cardstock. A standard paper doll size is generally 5 to 6 inches (13 to 15 cm) tall and 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5.1 cm) wide. You may also want to draw on some undergarments that can be easily covered by clothes, such as a close-fitting slip, a camisole, or underwear and a bra. Once you’ve penciled in the basic outline, draw in any areas that go outside of the outline, such as hair, feet, and hands. You can either draw in toes and fingers or leave the hands and feet as general shapes. Keep the facial features simple and line-based. Once you’ve finished drawing the doll’s body in pencil, go over the lines with a black fine-tipped pen. Micron pens or extra fine-tipped Sharpie pens work well for fine-lining. Let the ink dry for 1-3 minutes, then use a white eraser to remove pencil lines. If any of the ink does smudge, use white-out to cover it. One of the best parts about drawing your own paper doll is getting to exercise your creativity and customize it as much as you want. Choose a hair color, skin tone, and eye color for your doll, then color it in. You could use crayons, markers, or paint, as well as sharpened colored pencils for more precision. Make sure to color the doll before you cut it out, because it’s much easier to color carefully and avoid any damage with the doll still on the page.

TL;DR in English: Draw the outline of the body in light pencil. Pencil in the hair and more details. Go over your drawing with a fine-tipped pen and erase pencil lines. Color in the doll’s features.

Go through the first draft of your story and look at sentences where you have duplicated adjectives, nouns or verbs. Maybe you have a preference for the adjective “red” to describe a dress or a pool of blood. But adjectives like “ruby, russet, crimson” can add texture to the language and turn a conventional phrase like “a red pool of blood” into a more interesting phrase, like “a crimson pool of blood.”  Get out your thesaurus and replace any redundant word use with synonyms to avoid using the same words or phrases over and over again in the story. Be sure to make your language use and word choice fit the voice of your character. A teenage girl will likely use different words or phrases than a middle-aged man. Creating a vocabulary for your character that fits their personality and perspective will only add to their believability as a character. You can do this to a mirror or to a group of people you trust. Horror stories began as an oral tradition of spooking someone around a campfire, so reading your story out loud will help you determine if the pace of the story is building steadily and gradually, if there is enough shock, paranoia, or dread, and if your characters make all the wrong decisions until they are forced to confront the source of their conflict.  If your story is dialogue heavy, reading it out loud will also help you determine if the dialogue sounds believable and natural. If your story contains a twist ending, gauging your reader’s reaction by watching your audience’s faces will help you determine if the ending is effective or needs more work.

TL;DR in English: Analyze your use of language. Read your story out loud.

If you want to be a successful student, then paying attention in class is absolutely crucial to your success. While you don’t have to love every single subject that comes your way, you should be motivated enough to listen to your teachers, to avoid texting your friends, and to be focused enough to really hear what your teacher is telling you, and to be able to pick up on the most important aspects of each lesson.  In order to pay attention, it’s important to keep your eye on the teacher. If you’re confused about something, you can quickly ask for clarification. If the lesson goes on and you feel yourself getting more and more lost, it’ll be hard to pay attention. . Taking notes is also crucial to your success as a student. Not only will taking notes help you study later, but doing so will also keep you engaged in the classroom, and will help you learn the material because you’ll have to jot it down in your own words. Some people even use different highlighters or pens to organize their notes as they take them to really help them absorb the material. Taking notes will make you feel more accountable in the classroom and will help you listen to your teachers. If you really want to succeed in the classroom, then it’s important that you ask your teachers questions, when it’s appropriate, in order to get a stronger understanding of the material. You shouldn’t interrupt the lessons, but you should ask questions if you really have them in order to avoid being confused and to prepare for your exams. Asking questions will also keep you active in the discussion and will help you learn the material, too. At the end of each class, you can also review your notes and prepare questions to ask the next time if anything is unclear. Some teachers want you to wait until the end of the lecture to ask questions. If this is the case with your teacher, be respectful of that. If you want to succeed as a student, then it’s important for you to participate in class. You should not only ask questions when you have them, but you should...

Concrete cures best in temperatures above 50 °F (10 °C), so check the forecast for the next week. If you can expect warm temperatures, then now is the right time to pour the concrete.  Pouring in the spring or summer is ideal to avoid any unexpected cold weather. If there is a sudden cold snap after pouring the concrete, professionals usually protect the concrete by building a structure around the site and using a portable heater. This is an expensive option, but it’s the best choice to protect the concrete. While the concrete is curing, it can’t handle excessive weight. Let it dry for a full 24 hours before stepping on it to prevent damage to the surface.  If you’re water-curing the concrete, take extra care to avoid stepping on it while you re-wet the fabric. If the concrete is in an area with a lot of foot traffic, block the area off and hang signs warning about wet cement. Make sure any pedestrians will know they can't step on the area. Even if the concrete looks dry, it can't handle excessive weight until after it cures completely. If the concrete is in your driveway or a similar area that cars drive on, wait at least 10 days before driving or parking your car on it.  If you have a large vehicle like an RV or truck, wait 28 days before parking it on the concrete. Also wait 28 days if this is a commercial area with a lot of vehicle traffic, like a parking lot. The weight from multiple vehicles can cause the concrete to sink. Introducing new chemicals to the concrete before it’s completely hardened can interfere with the curing process. Wait a full month before applying any paints or stains to the concrete. If you do want to paint the concrete and used a curing compound, remember to get one that is nonreactive with paint.

TL;DR in English: Pour concrete when the temperature will be above 50 °F (10 °C) for at least 7 days. Wait 24 hours to walk on the concrete. Drive on the concrete only after 10 days have passed. Let the concrete harden for a full month before painting or staining it.

A comb with sturdy, widely spaced teeth is essential for combing out severe tangles. Fine combs and brushes are likely to meet too much resistance, forcing you to either pull out clumps of hair, or stop brushing. Be sure to pick a comb that doesn't have teeth so wide that smaller tangles slip through. Always comb tangled hair starting near the ends. Place the comb a few inches (several centimeters) from the end of the tangled hair, and brush downward. Repeat until that section of hair is free of tangles, then move the comb slightly higher up. Repeat until the entire length of your hair is combed. For long or thick, severely matted hair, this may take an hour or more. If you have a sensitive scalp, hold a section of your hair as you brush it. Grasp a portion of hair about the thickness of a marker or glue stick between your fingers, and give it a half-twist to keep the comb from pulling directly on your scalp. Comb this portion of hair beneath your hand, moving your grip higher once the hair below it is successfully untangled. Apply a drop of conditioner or oil to a tough knot and rub it in with your finger. This will help lubricate those hair strands further, reducing the amount they cling to each other. If a mat of hair refuses to come apart despite all your efforts, you may need to thin it out. Open a pair of scissors and hold your hair tight with your other hand. Run the bottom blade of the scissors along the underside of the mat, then gently tug at your hair to remove loose strands. If it has been weeks or months since the last time you combed your hair, cutting mats out may be your best option, as you can spend hours detangling with no results. Use a wide-toothed comb until the severe mats and tangles have been straightened out. Switch to a fine-toothed comb or a brush to remove any small knots that may remain. Rinse out any hair treatments completely once your hair is untangled. If you have tightly coiled hair, and the severe mats have separated enough to allow you to part your hair, clip each section...

TL;DR in English: Use a wide toothed comb. Comb the ends first. Hold your hair higher up to prevent pain. Apply additional conditioner or oil if necessary. Thin stubborn mats with scissors. Finish with a fine-toothed comb or brush. Rinse your hair.

Rub the cube directly over your skin till you feel numb and the cube melts. Try to work with only one or two cubes if possible, to avoid having them melt all over the place. Consider holding each cube with a clean washcloth. As the cube melts, it will be absorbed by the washcloth, reducing further mess. Do this for a while after you've noticed the burn. The cubes will slowly melt but provide longer relief. Keep a dry towel nearby to catch the melting liquid. Once you've used your aloe vera cubes and treated the burn, avoid rubbing your burn with a towel. Instead, let your skin dry naturally. If you plan to use the entire tray, dump the cubes into a separate bowl you can maintain in the freezer. Then refill the tray and freeze so you have another round on hand.

TL;DR in English: Apply one cube to the affected area the minute (or even before) you feel pain. Wrap several cubes in a thin towel and hold over the affected area. Allow the burn to air dry. Refill your ice cube tray for future use.

Wash and peel the apples first. Then, prepare them in one of the following ways:  Core the apples, then cut them into rings/slices. Cut the apples into thin wedges.  Cut the apples into quarters, then into ½-inch (1.27 centimeters) thick slices. Tilt the skillet from side-to-side as the butter melts to help it spread evenly across the bottom. You can use white or brown sugar, but brown sugar will give you a better flavor. Keep stirring until the sugar and cinnamon are mixed evenly with the butter. Turn the apples often with a spatula or wooden spoon so that they get cooked evenly. Scoop the apple slices out with a spoon, and serve them in a bowl. If you don't want the "sauce" leftover from the apples, scoop them out using a slotted spoon instead.

TL;DR in English: Prepare the apples for frying. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir the sugar and cinnamon into the butter. Add the apples, and cook them over medium-high heat for about 5 to 8 minutes. Serve the apples while they are still warm.

Making sure that the pattern coordinates with your wardrobe is always a safe bet, but don't be afraid to step outside of the box and go with a big and bold pattern. If this is too much for you, it's perfectly fine to go with a smaller, more subtle pattern or no pattern at all! When choosing patterns, make sure that at least one color matches your tunic, cardigan, dress, or whatever you plan on wearing with it. Leggings are very form-fitting, so they show off every curve on your body. They may also create some unwanted curves, such as muffin tops or rolls. If you do choose to wear these as exercise pants, be sure to wear undergarments that have good structure and support. If your shirt has a wide collar or sleeve hole that makes you feel self-conscious, you could always wear a matching tank top underneath to avoid any embarrassing peek-a-bras. Another alternative is to wear a cardigan over it. Other great choices for tops include:  Long, asymmetric tops and tunics Short dresses Long tank tops or camisoles. If the dress is sleeveless, you can wear a long-sleeved shirt under it. Complete the outfit with warm booties and a belt around your waist. The colors you wear are up to you, but darker colors, including earth tones, are more seasonal. Other great options include:  Long, knitted sweaters Big, bulky sweaters Cardigans (for layering) You can wear other types of shoes with leggings as well, but booties and flats seem to work the best. Remember to keep the weather in mind; booties are great for fall while flats are better suited to summer. You can also pair them with tall boots for the fall and winter, and canvas flats for the spring or summer. LuLaRoe makes other garments besides leggings. If you are stuck on ideas, consider pairing the leggings with other tops and tunics from LuLaRoe, such as the Irma top. This will make coordinating patterns, colors, and fabrics easier.

TL;DR in English: Pick a color and pattern that you feel comfortable in. Treat the leggings like thick tights rather than pants. Wear the leggings with loose-fitting tops, such as tunics. Swap out the tunic for a sweater dress in cooler weather. Pair the leggings with booties or flats. Combine the leggings with other LuLaRoe clothing.

Colleges usually offer grants or partial scholarships. Look for programs or scholarships from outside sources that can help with the remaining cost. Apply for as many of these scholarships as you can to reduce the cost of your education as much as possible. Once you are in college, maintain the academic standing required of your scholarship. Most grants or scholarships require that you maintain a certain GPA or otherwise remain in good academic standing. Continue to work hard and get grades high enough to keep your scholarship for as long as you need it. Athletic scholarships are highly competitive, and they only go to the best players in a region or state. If you're not the best player on your team and in your region, getting an athletic scholarship will be difficult. Practice and work hard to improve in your sport. Contact coaches at colleges you're interested in.  The best athletic schools might overlook mediocre academics, but if a scholarship comes down to you and a similar player with better grades, chances are it'll go to the other person. Because of this, keep your grades up, too. Being proactive about getting recruited will put you on the coach's radar as an athlete. Since you came to them, they'll know you're interested in their school and will be more likely to consider you. While this scholarship can help you get a top-tier education for free, it comes with a cost. You'll have to spend upwards of 20 hours a week practicing your sport, which can keep you from investing in the academics of college. These scholarships are also re-awarded each year, so they can be taken away if your coach doesn't feel you need or deserve it each year.  Consider lower-division schools, too. While you may dream of playing for your favorite Division I school, these scholarships are much more difficult to get. The ROTC also offers scholarships if you're looking into joining the military. For most ROTC programs, you will serve four years of active service and four years with the Individual Ready Reserve, during which you...

TL;DR in English: Apply for academic scholarships. Aim for an athletic scholarship. Consider going the ROTC route. Apply for more unique scholarships.

.  If an AED is available in the immediate area, use it as soon as possible to jump-start the victim's heart.  Make sure there are no puddles or standing water in the immediate area. It should have voice prompts that tell you what to do. Remove any metal necklaces or underwire bras. Check for any body piercings, or evidence that the victim has a pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillator to avoid shocking too close to those spots. These are usually marked with a medical bracelet, but may they may not have one. Make sure the chest is absolutely dry and the victim is not in a puddle. Note that, if the person has a lot of chest hair, you may need to shave it, if possible. Some AED kits come with razors for this purpose. Follow the instructions on the AED for placement. Move the pads at least 1 inch (2.5 cm) away from any metal piercings or implanted devices. Make sure no one is touching the person when you apply the shock. Loudly shout, “Stand back!” before administering the shock. If a shock is needed for the patient, the machine will notify you. If you do shock the victim, make sure no one is touching him or her. Stick on adhesive electrode pads are intended to be left in place.

TL;DR in English: Use an AED (automated external defibrillator) Turn on the AED. Fully expose the victim's chest. Attach the sticky pads with electrodes to the victim's chest. Press analyze on the AED machine. Do not remove pads from the victim and resume CPR for another 5 cycles before using the AED again.

Ensure that there’s nothing in the oven, and turn the heat on. While the oven heats, you can measure out your ingredients and begin to prepare the dish. Be patient while the oven heats up. Depending on what kind of oven you have, it may take some time to reach the right temperature. Most ovens will make a noise when they’ve reached the correct temperature. To make the cheese bubbly, carefully pull the foil off of the dish. Leave it in the oven on the same temperature for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese starts to bubble around the edges. If you like crispier cheese, leave the uncovered dish in the oven for 12-13 minutes. Let the dish cool for 5 minutes, and then use a spoon or spatula to remove a portion from the dish. You can sprinkle additional cheese across the tortellini to make it even cheesier! If you have leftover tortellini, scoop it into an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for 1 week to enjoy the left overs.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven to 350 °F (177 °C). Remove the foil and bake the dish for 10 additional minutes. Scoop the tortellini out of the dish to serve.

One of the simplest, most beginner-friendly ways to remove chrome is via simple mechanical action - i.e., scrubbing with an abrasive. Mix baking soda or a solid household cleanser with water to make an abrasive paste that can be rubbed onto the chrome with a soft cloth until the chrome begins to give way. This method may work best with especially thin, weak chrome plating or with "fake" chrome plating (for example, plastic painted with a fake "chrome" material). Even in these cases, considerable elbow grease may be required. Check your progress frequently as you scrub. Scrubbing for too long may scratch the underlying material. Some types of chrome (especially fake plastic variants like you may find on model cars, etc.) can be removed with commercial-grade oven cleaners. These powerful de-greasing solutions usually come in an aerosol can as a foam or liquid spray. Give your chrome part a generous coating of cleaner, then allow it to sit for 10 minutes. Wipe the chrome off along with the spray-cleaner. Note that some oven spray-cleaner may darken any underlying metal if left to sit too long, so you may want to apply the process repeatedly in short increments until you have the result you want. Another favorite method of model car enthusiasts for removing chrome is the use of a bleach bath. In this method, chromed parts are simply submerged bleach and left to sit. After about a day, depending on its thickness, the chrome should be loosened if not stripped entirely.  The primary benefit of this method compared to the others is that bleach should leave any primer below the outer chrome layer intact. After using bleach to remove chrome, it should be properly disposed of and never re-used (for laundry, etc.) Standard automotive brake fluid works like paint thinner to remove chrome layers from plastic objects. However, this method can take several days to work. Additionally, it requires the proper handling and disposal of the brake fluid, which is toxic. Rub the chrome object with brake fluid and let it set about 10...

TL;DR in English: Use a homemade abrasive to remove especially thin or weak chrome. Use oven cleaner. Soak the chromed item in household bleach. Use brake fluid to remove chrome plating.

There are paint thinners that have been created specifically for model use. If you are using a specific brand of paint, use the same brand of paint thinner. If you can't find paint thinner or want to create your own, combine 50% distilled water with 50% of propyl alcohol and your paint in a 1:1 ratio. Thinning out the paint lightens the consistency and enables you to make more consistent coats. Use a mild dish soap and cold water with a rag to wash off your car. Remove any particles of dust that may have built up on the surface of the car as a result of sanding. Wipe the model dry before moving onto the next step. Dip your brush into your paint and fill in the more intricate pieces of your model, like the mirrors first. Make sure not to paint over areas where your model will fit together, or you may have trouble assembling your model correctly. Get a variety of different sized brushes to make painting easier. You can use either a synthetic or natural-haired brush to paint your car models. Continue to paint over larger parts of the car. Do not dab or scrape with the brush unless you are doing specific detailing. Instead, you want to achieve an even coat by making long and even strokes. Popular paints for model cars include Testors, Model Masters, Humbrol, Tamiya, PollyScale, Floquil, and Vallejo. Allow your model car to dry overnight before going back to apply additional coats to the model. Continue to work at painting your car, applying the paint as evenly across the model as possible. Apply painter's tape to finished details so that you don't ruin them when applying additional coats of paint.

TL;DR in English:


Find out if your school has a School Lunch Advisory Council. Get to know your school’s nutrition staff. Talk to your principal about nutritional guidelines for school events. Encourage your friends to make healthy choices.

Let him decide if he wants to have lunch near you, rather than always rushing to eat near him. If he works in another department, don’t spend too much time there or he might feel that you’re being intrusive.  You can send plenty of signals that you’re interested without crossing his boundaries. Remember, no one wants to feel like they’re being sexually harassed at work. If they feel harassed, this could land you in trouble! Some workplaces actually prohibit employees from becoming romantically involved. Others have strict policies about the kind of communication that is allowable while on the clock. Don’t do anything to jeopardize either of your jobs. If it has to wait until after work, let it. Check the employee handbook. If you didn't get a copy, there might be one in the breakroom or office. It could also be available digitally. This can be the hardest part, but it’s almost bound to happen. No matter how subtle you both are, people are sure to notice what’s going on. Workplace gossip helps relieve the boredom of routine, so expect questions and rumors.   Gossip can work in your favor. If your crush wasn’t sure of your intentions, hearing a rumor might help him get the full picture. Decide whether you want to dismiss rumors or be honest about your feelings. This can help you or backfire, so choose wisely. Remember that the things you tell someone in confidence will likely make their way around the office eventually. It’s very common for people to see workplace flirting as a way to get ahead in the company. First, you need to be honest with yourself that this is not what’s going on. Then let anyone who asks know that you would never engage in flirting simply to advance your career. This may not happen every time, but it is more likely if the guy has a higher position than you. With online dating apps, you can easily flirt with (and date) multiple guys at once, and no one has to know. At work, things are quite different. Even if your crush doesn’t realize that you’ve also been flirting with the guy in the...

TL;DR in English: Keep it respectful and give him space. Know your company policy. Prepare for gossip. Know that your motives might be questioned. Stick to one guy at a time.

You can have sex on your period, though it can be a bit messy. Some guys are a little squeamish about it, others don't care, but make sure you consider how you feel. If you don't even like to be touched during your period, then you probably just want to wait.  If you want to have sex but you're not sure how he feels, try saying: "I'd like to have sex, but I'm on my period. How do you feel about that?" Don't feel pressured to do anything you don't want to do. you can still get pregnant during your period. There's a persistent myth that you can't get pregnant if you have sex when you have your period, but this is not true. Sperm can survive in a woman's body for up to five days and, if you happen to ovulate (release an egg) a little early, it could be fertilized. Even if the chances of pregnancy are lower during your period, the chances of contracting an STD are higher. Because there are more bodily fluids involved (and STDs are found in bodily fluids like seamen, vaginal discharge, and menstrual blood), it makes it easier to transmit an STD. To save your sheets from stains, lay a towel on the bed and have some tissues nearby, in case you need to wipe yourself off afterward. You may also want to consider taking a shower together, since the flowing water will pretty much eliminate any mess.

TL;DR in English: Tell your boyfriend you're having your period and talk about what you are both comfortable with. Make sure you use protection: Lay down a towel to reduce the mess.

Trench foot is caused by having wet feet for long periods of time, due to things like having wet shoes and socks or standing in water or mud for a long period of time. If you start to notice symptoms of trench foot, then you should seek medical attention as soon as possible. Symptoms of trench foot may include the following:  tingly or itchy feet pain in your feet swelling feet cold blotchy skin numbness, heaviness, or a prickly feeling in your feet redness and warmth dry skin blisters followed by tissue death (late stage) Although trench foot was termed over a hundred years ago and seems to be something of the past, it can still occur in people who spend many hours in cold, wet conditions. One of the best ways to treat trench foot is to keep your feet dry and clean. If you find yourself standing in water for a few hours or more, clean and dry them as often as you can. Change into dry socks as needed.  Trench foot develops because the blood vessels of the feet constrict in an attempt to keep the rest of the body warm, which reduces the amount of oxygen and nutrients the tissue gets. Without adequate oxygen and nutrients, the tissues of the feet swell and eventually die. Bacteria in the water can also trigger infections if there's cuts or abrasions on the feet. If you do have cuts on your feet, apply some antibacterial cream or alcohol-based sanitizer after you dry your feet, but before you put your shoes / boots back on. If you've been standing in cold water for hours at a time, it's important to not only dry your feet, but you need to warm them up gradually. The heat will open up (dilate) blood vessels and increase the circulation to your feet, which will stop the progression of trench foot. Apply warm packs or soak your feet in warm water for approximately 5-10 minutes. Resist the urge to use hot water because you may scold your feet and make the condition worse.  If you take a warm foot bath, add some potassium permanganate solution (from your local pharmacy) to the water — it can help draw fluid out of...

TL;DR in English: Check for symptoms. Wash and dry your feet frequently. Warm up your feet. Take off your socks while sleeping and resting. Consider over-the-counter medications. Treat any signs of infection quickly. Seek emergency care if your feet turn dark blue, green or black.

To remove surface dirt and grime on the pool liner, use a pool brush with nylon or plastic bristles. Pool brushes are curved and often come with an extendable handle, making it easier for you to clean the pool liner. Run the brush over the liner to remove dirt and debris. Make sure you clean the sides and the bottom of the liner.  You can dip the brush in a bucket of pool water to clean it as you go. The pool brush should remove surface dirt and grime easily off of the liner. To address any dirt on the liner that is below the water line of the pool, drain the pool and use the brush to get at these spots. You can also clean any thick marks on the liner with a clean towel or cloth. Dip the towel in the pool water and wipe off the marks. Using the pool water can make wiping off marks or dirt on the liner easier. This option may be better for spot cleaning any trouble areas on the liner. You may keep a clean cloth on hand to wipe off dirty spots on the liner when they start to appear. Get a pool vacuum that has a tele-pole, a vacuum head, and a vacuum head. Make sure the vacuum head is made for a vinyl pool liner, as it will have brushes so it does not snag the liner. The vacuum can be used to remove debris and algae on the pool liner. The pool vacuum works by attaching the vacuum hose to the skimmer or vacuum line in the pool. Run the vacuum against the pool liner to remove debris and algae. Any dirt or debris will go through the hose to the pump basket and filter.

TL;DR in English: Clean the liner with a pool brush. Wipe the liner with a clean cloth. Vacuum up any algae or debris on the liner.

If you’re passionate about making nutritious food options available to yourself and your classmates, getting involved in a SLAC is a great option. Talk to your teachers or the school administration about whether your school has a SLAC and, if so, ask them how you can join. Even if your school doesn’t have a council dedicated to nutrition, you may be able to get involved by joining a more general student advisory group or a school nutrition club. Talk to your school’s administration about setting up a meeting with the cafeteria manager or other members of the nutrition staff. During the meeting, you can ask questions or bring up any concerns you have about the school menu. You can also ask them about ways you can get involved in promoting better nutrition at school. Your cafeteria manager can also help connect you with the nutrition director who is responsible for menu planning for your entire school district. While lunches and snacks offered in school cafeterias and vending machines are carefully regulated in many areas, food options for school events and fundraisers are not always subject to the same rules. Ask your principal about setting rules about what kinds of foods and snacks are allowed at after-school events, classroom parties, and fundraisers. For example, you might work together to establish a rule that soda cannot be served at school events. As a student, you can use the power of peer pressure for good! Set a good example for your friends and classmates by choosing good lunch and snack options and encouraging them to do the same. Don’t tease or put down your friends for choosing less healthy options. Instead, focus on the positive. For example, you might say, “Hey, have you tried the salad bar? It’s actually really good!”

TL;DR in English:


Choose the right time. Don't get emotional. Use "I" statements. Be willing to compromise. Be prepared for a no.

Using a screw extractor involves drilling into metal. The last thing you want is a flying shard of metal in your eye. Wear safety goggles made with polycarbonate lenses. A center punch is a metal cylinder that looks like a pen. You can find them at any hardware store. With one hand, hold the metal tip against the center of the screw head. Pick up a hammer in your free hand and use it to tap the top of the punch. Strike it very lightly. If you did it right, you’ll see a small divot in the screw. This guides your drill bit into the center of the screw. If the screw is in a tight space, use a small metal drill bit and a right angle drill. Be careful that the bit doesn’t slip while you’re drilling. Thread cutting oil is sold in big jugs at hardware stores, but you only need a drop. Tip the bottle over to splash a little bit onto the screw head. Cutting oil lubricates the metal, which means less time spent drilling and less wear and tear for your drill bit. If you don’t have this oil, you can try a drop of motor oil, WD-40, or another lubricant. Household oils will help but offer less protection to the drill bit. Penetrating oil is needed for rusted screws or ones attached to metal surfaces. It loosens the screw, making it easier to remove. Add a drop of it onto the screw head on top of the thread cutting oil. If you don’t have penetrating oil, acetone may work too.

TL;DR in English: Put on safety gear. Align a center punch over the screw. Indent the screw by hammering in the punch. Apply a drop of thread cutting oil to the screw. Add a drop of penetrating oil to rusty screws.

If you keep checking the girl out and staring at her, it could make her feel uncomfortable and threatened. If the girl looks or tells you that she feels uncomfortable, stop looking at her and walk away. If the girl catches you, don't try to avoid the situation. Instead, admit that you were checking her out, apologize, and stop doing it. She will appreciate your honesty and your apology. You can say something like, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to stare; I just think you’re really pretty. I won't anymore." If you think a girl is pretty and want to look at her, you can introduce yourself to her. Go up to her and introduce yourself by telling her your name and then asking for hers. Take a look at her body language. If she seems interested in talking to you more, make small talk with her. You can say something like "Hey, my name is Dan. What's your name?" If you're checking out girls around your significant other, it can do more than just make the girl that you're checking out feel uncomfortable. It can also cause your significant other to get jealous and mad at you. Avoid checking out girls around your significant other or keep it as stealthy and unnoticeable as you can.

TL;DR in English: Don't make the girl feel uncomfortable. Apologize and stop checking her out if she catches you. Introduce yourself to the girl instead of checking her out. Don't check out girls around your significant other.

Clothing is usually mass-produced to accommodate standard  body types. Clothes that are tailored to fit your body will accentuate or highlight curves while hiding any spots you may not like. Tailored pieces can also create curves if you aren’t naturally curvy.  In order to best accentuate your curves, your clothes should be formfitting but not tight, nip in at your waist, hug your hips, and fall loosely over your thighs and calves.  If you want to create curves on a slimmer figure, you can make your clothing tailored so it’s slightly more formfitting, but not skintight.  For example, you can have a boxy top tailored to be more form fitting and flattering to your figure by adding darts, or have wrap dresses and skirts adjusted so that they just skim your curves. Solid colors will create a slim line and color blocking, which is a way of wearing two or more solid colors, will help further accentuate your curves.  You can also use color blocking to create curves. For example, a dress that has side panels in a different color that taper in will define your waist and give you a curvier look.  Horizontal color blocking, such as wearing one color on top and another on the bottom, is a bit more subtle but will also highlight your curves. Because fabrics fall in different ways on a person’s body, choosing the right fabrics for your clothing will help accentuate or create curves.  The best options are medium-weight knits and soft fabrics that will drape well over your curves. Consider cotton with a small percentage of spandex to help the garment lightly skim your body while retaining it’s shape. If you aren’t naturally curvy, consider fabrics that have a bit more spandex to hug your body while creating curves. Small clothing embellishments and details, such as a peplum or an A-line, will accentuate or create curves by drawing the eye towards specific areas of your body.  Peplums are a good way to make your hips look curvier. The peplum should be structured and not hang loosely from the article of clothing. If you’re...

TL;DR in English: Have your clothing tailored. Wear solid colors and try color blocking. Wear the right fabrics. Choose clothing details to accentuate or create curves. Accentuate your waist. Avoid loose or oversized clothing.

If your oven has a light inside, switch it on so you can keep an eye on the fat as it renders without having to open the door. This first phase of cooking is mostly just to render the rind. Once the fat starts to blister and crackle (hence the name!), you'll turn the oven down and continue cooking at a lower temperature until the meat gets done all the way through.  Set a timer to help you keep track of how long the roast has been in the oven. You'll know the fat has had enough time to render when it turns a light golden-brown color and begins to bubble. Your remaining cook time may vary a bit depending on the size and thickness of the cut you're using. If you're not sure how long it needs, a good rule of thumb is to allot about 30 minutes per pound of meat. During this time, the meat surrounding the fat layer will darken to a deep reddish-brown color. Insert a meat thermometer somewhere near the center of the roast to check to see whether it's done. If you get a reading lower than 145 °F (63 °C), allow it to continue cooking for 5-10 minutes, or until it climbs to a safe internal temperature.  Another way to tell if your roast is done is to jab it with a skewer. The escaping juices should be totally clear, without the slightest hint of pink.  If the rind has gotten soft after the second phase of cooking, set the oven to broil, crank it up to 450 °F (232 °C) and put the roast back in for 10-20 more minutes to crisp it up. The roast will be extremely hot when it first comes out of the oven, so this will give it some time to cool down and let the juices settle. If you want, you can fold a couple sheets of aluminum foil around it to prevent too much heat from escaping. Once you're ready to dish up your crackling, make sure you carve each slice to include a generous crust of crispy rind!

TL;DR in English: Place the roasting pan on the center rack of the oven. Heat the pork roast for 45-50 minutes. Reduce the heat to 375 °F (191 °C) and cook for an additional hour. Remove the roast once it reaches 145 °F (63 °C) inside. Let your pork crackling rest for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Try to think of everyone who might be willing to write you a positive letter of recommendation in your particular field. Generally, places requesting letters of recommendation will ask for at least two and no more than three, but it's a good idea to think of a larger list, in case any of your ideal candidates don't work out. Try to come up with at least 5-7 possibilities. How you choose to assign "strength" to the candidates will be relative, but in general you want to find a balance between the familiarity of the letter writer with you and your work, and that letter writer's standing in the field. While you might have had a better relationship with a co-worker or a TA for one of your classes, a letter from them may be less desirable than from a supervisor or a Professor who also knows your work, but may need some reminding. Consider collecting profiles or portfolios of your work to share with potential recommenders who may be less familiar with you and what you do. This is a good way to make contact with a successful person in your field and shows initiative. The easier you make their job, the more likely the candidate will be to do you the favor.

TL;DR in English: Write out a complete list of possibilities. Order the list. Aim high.

Never talk to your parents when they are angry or stressed--they'll be less likely to listen to your arguments, and even less likely to say yes to your requests. Plan ahead of time and choose a time that allows for a conversation that isn't tense or rushed.  Plan ahead of time by choosing both a time and place that will make you relaxed and comfortable. It also helps to plan what you will say ahead of time. Choose your arguments, research your topics, and even write out a script to prepare yourself. Although it may be a topic about which you're passionate, avoid getting angry or begging. Try to speak in a level tone without raising your voice, and make sure you present your arguments--by stating the facts, you're able to avoid emotional appeals.  Avoid raising your voice, whining, interrupting, storming off, and slamming doors.  If your emotions start to get the best of you, take a deep breath and take a small break from the conversation. Come back to it only when you are composed and ready to continue. I statements help you to make an assertive statement without the receiving party becoming defensive and closed off. Listen to your parents' argument, describe how you feel, how the decision affects you, and how you hope for it to change.  For example, you can start the conversation by saying "I feel that I'm mature enough to grow out my hair." Follow it up with "I feel like a child when I'm not allowed to make decisions about my personal style." Lastly say something like, "I would like to grow my hair out to prove to you that I am still a responsible and mature individual." Be willing to "meet in the middle." Not only does compromising show that you are mature, but it can keep both parties happy. Promise that you won't grow your hair any longer than shoulder length, or agree that you won't add any wild colors or styles.  Promise that you'll get your hair cut every once in a while, trim dead ends, keep your hair looking nice, etc. Remind them, that long hair can always be cut, so it's not like you're trying to...

Use the internet to look into your options to find the best movie to accommodate a good kiss session. There's plenty of apps for your smartphone that will also show you movie times near you. Try to find a movie that you've both either seen or have very little interest in seeing.  This can get tricky with the high price of going to the movies these days.  For a more enjoyable time, wait until the movie you actually want to see has been playing for a month or two. If you think or know she wants to see something, suggest it yourself.  The idea is to pick a movie that won't be too crowded. Consider the duration of the movie.  You should decide if you think you'll want a three-hour movie or can settle with an hour and a half. It could be uncomfortable to smooch to a very serious movie. Either go for a comedy, romantic-comedy, or a horror.  These movies also get less attendance than the bigger blockbusters. Be on the same page as your date. One of the best ways to create chemistry is for the two of you to watch trailers together. Be assertive if there is something you want to see, but don't push it too hard. In the end, decide on something together.

Pour the heavy cream into a mixer, and beat on high. This will give you a thick, creamy base for your ice cream. If you don't have an electric mixer, you can use a food processor fitted with whisks. The foil will help keep the ice cream soft, and prevent ice crystals from forming. You can also pour the mixture into individual cups or bowls to make small, ready-to-serve desserts. Once the ice cream is frozen, you can scoop it out into small bowls using an ice cream scoop. If there are any leftovers, put them back into the freezer.

TL;DR in English: Beat the heavy cream until still peaks form, about 3 to 4 minutes. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container and cover with a piece of foil. Freeze for 4 to 6 hours, and serve.

Backstitches are created by inserting your needle up through the canvas at even-numbered holes and down through the canvas at odd-numbered holes. This stitch may be any length you desire and go in any direction. On patterns, this stitch appears as “backstitch” or “backst.”  Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at hole 2. Push the needle down through the top of the canvas at hole 1. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at hole 4. Push the needle down through the top of the canvas at hole 3. Repeat. The continental stitch is used to create horizontal rows of angled stitches. On patterns, this stitch appears as “continental.”  Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 2. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 1. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 3. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 2. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 4. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 3. Repeat. The reverse continental stitch is sewn from left to right, as opposed to right to left. In patterns, this stitch appears as “reverse continental.”  Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 6. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 7. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 5. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 6. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 1, hole 4. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 2, hole 5. Repeat. A cross stitch looks like an “X.” It is created by making two intersecting diagonally stitches. On patterns it appears as “cross stitch” or “xs.”  Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 2, hole 2. Insert the needle down through the top of the canvas at row 1, hole 1. Pull the needle up through the back of the canvas at row 2, hole 1. Insert the needle down through the...

Don't try to paraphrase too much information at once. Focus on the sentences that most effectively support your ideas or arguments, and condense them into a paraphrased statement. If you want to use a longer section of text, it's better to write a summary.  A summary is broader than a paraphrase because it focuses on the main points of an entire section of text and provides an overview of the text as a whole. A paraphrase focuses on one main idea or concept within a larger work. Choose a quote that directly supports your argument. For example, you might choose statistical data contained within an article or an expert's opinion about the issue you're writing about. the quote by identifying the main ideas and supporting details. Identify what the author is saying, such as their main point or argument. Then, note how they support those ideas. What does this quote mean overall?  Be detailed in your notes. This will help you understand the quote, plus you can condense your notes into a paraphrase. For example, you might choose this quote: "Despite expectations, installing metered ramps did not decrease the congestion levels on the highway. Travel times from downtown to the nearest suburb averaged 40 minutes before meters were added to the ramps. After installation, travel times averaged 38 minutes, a difference which is not significant." In this quote, the author's main idea is that metered ramps did not solve congestion issues on this highway, and their supporting details are statistics specifying the similar travel times before and after the installation. If you can express the same ideas in different words, it’s a good idea to use a paraphrase when including it in your paper. This ensures more of your paper is in your own words. Plus, you don’t want to include too many quotes.  If you’re citing data, facts or statistics, paraphrasing is your best option. You can use paraphrasing to avoid having too many direct quotes in your paper. A paraphrase condenses the ideas in a quote and changes the original language....

TL;DR in English:


Pick the right store. Get social support. Purchase other items. Find a cashier that is similar to you. Distract yourself or look busy during checkout. Use the self-checkout system if available. Continue to practice.

The meat should be tender if you insert a fork into the thickest part of the roast and you should be able to shred the meat a little if you drag the fork tines across the meat. If the roast isn't tender enough, cook it for another 30 minutes and check it again. Put the lid on the slow cooker and cook the meat on low so the pork heats back up. This also gives the flavors a chance to develop, so if you have time, you could slow cook the meat for up to 3 hours. If you'd like to make sandwiches, toast hamburger buns and set them out with the barbecued pork. You can also serve barbecued beans, corn on the cob, or coleslaw with the meal. Refrigerate leftover pork in an airtight container for up to 3 or 4 days.

TL;DR in English: Cover and cook the roast on low for 6 to 8 hours. Slow cook the barbecued pork for 1 hour on low. Serve the barbecued pork.

The easiest and most reversible way to give your guitar a little flair without damaging the instrument itself, or spending a lot of money is to get a new pick guard with interesting colors, or to get a plain pick guard and decorate it with markers or paint.  On electric guitars, most pick guards can be removed with a small Phillips-head screwdriver, after removing the strings. Replacing it is as easy as placing it and replacing the screws. Pick guards are available at any guitar shop or music store. Acrylic paint and permanent markers are the simplest and best ways of decorating pick guards, and the bodies of guitars. There's more info about painting your guitar in the next section. Jerry Garcia used to stick a rose in between the strings on the headstock of his guitar, and a variety of little decorations hanging from the headstock or the tailpiece of your guitar can look pretty cool.  Try getting a few scarves or attractive looking scraps of fabric and wrapping them under the strings at the headstock, and knotting them tightly. Wrap some strings between the tailpiece and the strap of your guitar to keep it held in place. Another super-easy and effective way of decorating your guitar is to use a variety of stickers placed around the body of both electric and acoustic guitars. While some people think these negatively affect the tone woods and the resonance of the guitar, the difference is difficult to notice, and not significant on cheaper guitars anyway. All of the following make great guitar decorations:  Band stickers Bumper stickers Logos Stickers along the fretboard Leather strap with a psychedelic mandala? Lightening bolt? Bandolier of bullets? A cool strap can do just as much for your general stage presence and vibe as a cool decorated guitar. Shop around online for cool options, or consider making your own.  Adjust strap to an appropriate rock and roll height. That means low, if you're in a punk band, and nipple-high if you're in an indie band. Apply buttons of your favorite bands to the strap. This is...

TL;DR in English: Change or decorate the pick guard. Hang something from the headstock. Add stickers. Get a flashy strap. Trick out the toggle switches. Write a slogan on your guitar.

If you are playing Assault, make sure you have a perfect set-up for what you are good at. For instance, some people are better at killing so they should equip the M320 to break through enemy lines giving the team the opportunity to push towards the objective. Some are better at supporting the team's needs, so the better choice would be to use Health/M320 Smoke: health, obviously, to heal wounded team-mates and M320 smoke, to prevent the enemies see you running over to revive a fallen team-mate or get closer to the objective. If you are playing Engineer, your only purpose is to repair friendly vehicles and destroy enemy vehicles. It seems quite simple, but can be very difficult if the enemies are more alert with their vehicle.  Mines, can be very useful, but again, a clever opponent will always check the floor for mines. Your best chances are, to flank the vehicle. Tanks and LAVs are weakest at the back, only 2 rockets are required to destroy them. Air vehicles can be destroyed if one of your team-mates plays recon with a Soflam, designates the target for you and you then use a Javelin to destroy it. Main duty: suppressing fire and give a ton of ammo to friendlies in need. This should generally be played by someone who won't run in guns blazing and attract attention. The Support role is very much behind the scenes. They are often a target for enemies, so be careful.  You can use Supporter to strap C4 to friendly cars, drive up to enemy vehicles jump out and detonate the C4, killing the vehicle and destroying the car. You can simply plant it on an enemy vehicle, or blow up buildings where enemies are hiding. Claymores are most effective when you are trying to hold off a position you can't always be at. For instance, protecting Site A with claymores, whilst you are protecting Site B. Mortars are very rarely useful unless the enemy team are camping in close-quarters areas. This role should always spot enemies, even if you can't kill them (This will be handy for friendlies approaching their position). Give...

TL;DR in English: Play the Assault role. Play as an Engineer. Master the Support role. Do some Recon.

Place it over medium high heat and allow the ghee to get hot. Toasting the seeds brings out the best in their flavor and scent. Toast them until the room becomes fragrant and the seeds start to crackle, about 30 seconds. Sauté them with the seeds for about five minutes, until the onion becomes translucent. Sauté the spices and fold them into the mixture for one minute. Stir the mixture gently and cook until the potatoes become dry, which should take about 3 minutes. Mix well and mash lightly. Remove it from heat and allow it to cool while you prepare the chapatti for filling.

TL;DR in English: Heat the ghee in a large saucepan. Toast the cumin seeds. Add the onion and ginger. Add the garlic, chili peppers, turmeric, salt, and garam masala. Add the potatoes and peas. Cool the filling.

A common misconception about abuse is that the victim somehow “deserves” it. For example, when Chris Brown battered Rihanna, many people quickly believed that Rihanna had done something wrong to “deserve” this abuse. This is not true. It doesn't matter what you have or haven't done; nobody deserves to be abused, and abuse is always the responsibility of the person committing it. This is true for all types of abuse, not just physical abuse. Each person deserves to be treated with dignity and kindness. These hotlines can help anyone who is or thinks they might be experiencing relationship abuse. They provide trained advocates who can listen to you and help you brainstorm solutions to your situation. In the US, you can contact the National Domestic Violence Hotline for free 24/7 at 1-800-799-SAFE. You can also contact the LoveIsRespect hotline, specifically for teens, at 1-866-331-9474 or text “loveis” to 22522. Both of these hotlines offer advocates for LGBTQ individuals, too. If you're concerned that your boyfriend is abusive, talk with someone you trust about it. This could be a parent, a counselor, a school official, or someone from your church. The important thing is to find someone who listens to you without judging you and offers you their support.  Leaving an abusive relationship can be dangerous. It's important to talk with people who can help and support you so that you don't have to deal with it all on your own. Remember, asking for help isn't a sign of weakness or failure. It's a sign that you're strong enough to do what's healthy for you. If you feel like you're in immediate danger from your boyfriend, get away as soon as possible. Call a trusted friend or family member and ask to stay with them. Call a domestic violence agency in your area to find a local women's shelter or safehouse. Call the police, if you have to. Don't stay in an environment where you will continue to be abused. If you have been physically or sexually assaulted, call the police and seek medical attention immediately. Getting...

TL;DR in English: Understand that abuse is never your fault. Contact a domestic violence hotline. Talk with someone you trust. Seek safe shelter. Build strong support networks. Honor yourself.

Pick a store that you know well in order to easily locate your particular item. Or, go to a store outside of your neighborhood in order to avoid running into people you know. Try going to a specialty sex-shop. The best part of buying from these types of locations is that you can easily play it off like you are buying a joke gift for a friend, or a party favor for a bachelorette party. This could also reduce your sense that someone may be judging you negatively by your purchase. Going with a friend or partner can help deflect some of your embarrassment by serving as a social buffer or even a distraction for your embarrassment.   Ask your partner to join you on your trip to the store. Tell a friend you need moral support in buying your embarrassing item. Buying just the personal item can feel like it is drawing attention to yourself and may lead to increased feelings of embarrassment. Instead, buy multiple items in order to camouflage your purchase. Get a bag of chips, gum, or soda to lessen the embarrassment. The more items the better. Using coping strategies when buying sex-related items, such as going to a checkout stand with a similar person to yourself (the same gender and around the same age as you), can reduce embarrassment. This is a very common coping resource for avoiding embarrassment in purchasing personal products. It can be very embarrassing to checkout sexual items with a different sex or someone with a huge age difference. If you can't find someone like you, try to find the person that is the best fit or that you think will produce the least amount of embarrassment for you. This helps to draw less attention to yourself, and reduces the likelihood of engaging the cashier in small talk in order to avoid an awkward moment.  Be polite, but avoid too much eye contact or small-talk with the cashier. Look at a magazine in the checkout stand. Text or be on the phone while waiting for checkout. This may reduce the feeling that someone is watching you or judging your purchase. Studies have shown that...

TL;DR in English:


Meditate Eat slower. Drink water. Keep your diet easy. Feed your mind with thoughts of who you want to become. Be confident. Monitor the mental chatter.

If you see just 1 stink bug, it may indicate a larger issue. Look around for warm pockets near heating vents or sunny spots along your walls and windows. Keep your eyes peeled for their brown, gray, or green bodies that may blend into the surrounding area. If you have an outdoor infestation, look on the underside of leaves for eggs and keep an eye out for discolored leaves.  If you haven’t crushed any stink bugs but start to notice a cilantro-like odor in your home, chances are you have an infestation. Suck the stink bugs up using a vacuum cleaner with a bag. For stink bugs sitting on walls or in crevices, use a small vacuum attachment to capture them. Discard the bag immediately to keep the smell out of your home.   Alternatively, you can wrap a stocking around the vacuum attachment tube to catch the bugs before they reach the bag or filter. Secure the stocking with a rubber band and push it inside the tube. Once you’ve sucked up the bugs, pull out the stocking, tie off the end, and dispose of it immediately. Refrain from using a bagless vacuum as it may smell foul for several weeks. Make sure you use a vacuum cleaner with a disposable bag. Once you spot stink bugs on your plants, use a high-pressure jet setting on a garden hose attachment to detach them from the leaves. Once you’ve forced them away, keep monitoring the plants in your garden to see if the stink bugs reappear. The water pressure won’t necessarily kill them off, but this is a good tactic to use to protect your plants at a moment’s notice. Instead of spraying a solution onto the bugs, mix up a solution of 4 cups (950 mL) of hot water with 3⁄4 cup (180 mL) of mild dish soap in a bucket. Hold this beneath the climbing stink bugs and flick them down into the solution using a gloved hand. After a few hours, drain out the water, bag up the dead bugs, and dispose of them immediately.  The soap will make it difficult for the insects to move, and they will ultimately drown in the water. As far as stink bug elimination methods go, this is probably the...

TL;DR in English: Look around to find where the stink bugs are located. Vacuum up a stink bug to kill and remove it. Knock stink bugs off plants by spraying them with a garden hose. Flick the stink bugs into a bucket of soapy water to catch and kill them. Crush a stink bug with a disposable item if you find it outside.

Rub the drops onto your palms and apply it to the roots and frizzy portions of your hair. Keep a small bottle of baby oil in your purse to apply on the go. If you are worried about using too much oil, apply the oil to a piece of tissue paper and then rub it from root to tip on your locks. The oil will reduce frizz. Avoid this step if you plan to curl your hair, due to the fact that it can weigh down curls. Apply the baby oil to a makeup pad or tissue. Then, pull the tissue through the ends before styling.

TL;DR in English: Use a few drops of baby oil to tame flyaways. Apply a few drops of baby oil to dry hair before you straighten it. Tame split ends using baby oil.

You want to choose polishes that are right for your skin tone and that will coordinate with your sandals, swimsuits, and summer attire.  Polishes can look slightly different after they dry. Before polishing nails, apply a small amount of polish to your skin. Let it dry there and see how it looks. You can do this with as many polishes as you like to see which one is right for your nails. If you know that you will be changing the color of your nails frequently, invest in a nail polish, as opposed to enamel, nail enamel is usually more expensive and more difficult to remove. If polishing right after moisturizing, be sure to clear your nail of moisturizer, as this can prevent the polish from drying properly.  One way of preparing the nail surface is to take a cotton swab and apply a small amount of nail polish remover to the nail surface. Rub in lightly, then wash and dry the tips of your toes. The polish remover breaks down the oiliness of the moisturizer.  Buff the nail surface. Using a buffing block, start with the side for removing ridges (should be the second roughest in texture) and buff the surface of the nail, being sure to compensate for nail curvature. Repeat with the less rough sides of the block, in order from roughest to least rough. Once you've reached the polishing side, the surface of the nail should be shiny. Use a toe spacer. Toe spacers are made of rubbery foam and are shaped with grooves for each toe on your foot. By separating the toes when polishing, it is easier to add polish neatly and toes do not rub against each other, marring the polish. Be sure to leave the spacers in place until the polish is dry.  Apply a base coat before polishing. Base coat is usually clear or milky. It strengthens nails and helps the polish adhere to the nail surface. Be sure to let the base coat dry completely before applying polish. Using even, perpendicular strokes, apply a thin coat of nail polish to your nails.  Experts say three strokes for each coat is enough-- left side, middle, and right side. Avoid...

TL;DR in English: Choose a polish. Prepare your feet for nail polish. Apply nail polish. Let dry. Apply a second coat. Finish with a top coat.
