Sit tall and deep in the saddle. Use your rein aid. Lengthen your legs slightly. Create a slight resistance in your seat to suggest a halt. When the horse shifts down, apply your driving aids.

Both men and women can have factitious disorder. It typically affects adults. Women may have a background in healthcare, such as being a nurse or technician. Women with factitious disorder tend to be between the ages of 20-40. Men tend to be unmarried between the ages of 30-50. Often, people with factitious disorder seek attention through the illness. These people take on a “sick role” to receive care from others. The core of factitious disorder is receiving attention from others. Any practical benefit from pretending to be sick (like skipping work or school)  is not the motivation. People who show symptoms of factitious disorder tend to have low self-esteem and/or problems with self identity. The person may have a convoluted personal or family history, or an inconsistent story. They may have interpersonal problems or family problems. This person may have a low view of the self or a difficult time identifying to the self. Symptoms of factitious disorder may follow or coexist along with someone who has factitious disorder imposed on another, or FDIA (formerly known as Munchausen syndrome by proxy, or MSBP). FDIA can occur when a parent places a child into a ‘sick’ role, and factitious disorder may occur if the child takes on the role of ‘sick child’. Some psychological disorders may be associated with factitious disorder, such as having borderline or antisocial personality symptoms.  There appears to be some link between factitious disorder and having a history of abuse, neglect or other maltreatment. There are no direct links between certain disorders and factitious disorder.

TL;DR in English: Know who it affects. Recognize the motivation. Note identity problems or self-esteem issues. Identify links related to other disorders.

If you look at the keyboard on a piano, you'll see white keys with black keys between them. Black keys are grouped in pairs and in groups of 3 with a space between. The pattern repeats up and down the entire keyboard.  The distance between a white key and the black key right next to it is a half step. The distance between 2 white keys that have a black key between them is a whole step. Practice making whole and half steps up and down the keyboard to get a hands-on understanding of how they work and how the notes relate to one another. The scale for a key starts at the root note for that key. All scales follow the "whole-whole-half whole-whole-whole-half" pattern. Once you find the root note, you can play the entire scale by following that pattern.  You can find the scales on your own without worrying about any sheet music. Start with C and play each white key until you get to the next C on the keyboard. You've just played the C Major scale, which uses only white keys. Move over to the D and follow the same "whole-whole-half whole-whole-whole-half" step pattern to find the D Major scale. By following the same pattern one key over, you now have to use 2 black keys – F sharp and C sharp. You can follow this pattern from any key on the piano to get the scale for that note. Once your fingers get used to playing the pattern, you may find that you can play a scale without even looking at the keys. Once you know the scale, you can find all the major chords by stacking notes in relation to the root note. Form a chord by playing 3 or 4 notes of the scale, starting with the root note.  The major chord is the main chord formed by the first, third, and fifth notes in the root note's scale. For example, since the first 5 notes of the C scale are C-D-E-F-G, the C Major chord is C-E-G. To make a minor chord, the third note is lowered by a half-step. For example, C minor would be C-E flat-G. If you play the major chord followed by the minor chord for the same root note, you can hear the difference between the 2 types of...

TL;DR in English: Identify whole and half steps. Play the scale for different keys. Look for chords within the scale. Compare chord names to notes of the scale.

Take the time to get to know her as a close friend before trying to progress to something more. You may worry about being put in the dreaded “friend zone,” but the truth of the matter is that many girls do need to feel secure with a guy before they will consider going out with him. Letting her know that you genuinely care about her as a human and a friend will establish that trust. Once you reach a level of friendship that allows the two of you to hang out without being in a group, invite her to spend some time with you alone.  If you want to be cautious, ask her to visit someplace familiar yet different, like a different coffee shop or a nearby park that you have both talked about wanting to visit. If you want to be a little bolder, ask her to spend the afternoon or evening with you without revealing your plans. You can take her out for a nice meal, an interesting show, or a night of dancing. Insist on paying. If she puts up a fuss about it, tell her that you want to pay for her since you were the one who asked her to come out with you. Unless you frequently throw gifts her way, a gift lets the girl know that there is something different—and special—about your time together this day when compared to any other day.  Flowers, chocolates, or stuffed animals are all fair game. Avoid expensive gifts like jewelry or designer clothes. After you have spent some time enjoying each other's company, sit down with her and tell her that you have something important to say. Once you have her undivided attention, tell her honestly that you have strong feelings for her and would like her to be your girlfriend.  Do not pressure, but at the same time, avoid blowing it off as no big deal. You must be genuine without being pushy. Good example: “I really enjoy the time I spend with you and consider you an important part of my life. I can't help but have feelings for you past those of friendship, though. If you feel the same way, or think you could see me as a boyfriend, then I'd like to go out with you.” Bad example: “So, yeah....

TL;DR in English: Befriend her. Ask her to spend time with you in a pressure-free setting. Consider giving her a small, inexpensive gift. Tell her seriously how you feel. Accept her answer calmly.

Invisible elastic bands are thin and clear so they’re very hard to see up close or at a distance. Put your hand through the elastic band so it’s wrapped around your palm. Position the band so it’s in the crook of your hand between your thumb and index finger. You can buy invisible elastic bands online or from magic stores. Look for 2 volunteers in the audience or on the street to help you perform your magic trick. See if there are any people who are in a relationship or are related in some way so you can use their “bond” as an explanation for the trick. Ask the participants to stand on opposite sides of you so they’re about 4–5 feet (1.2–1.5 m) apart from one another. You can also choose 2 strangers if people watching you don’t know one another. Choose 1 volunteer to close their eyes and ask them to confirm  that they can’t see anything. Have the other participant keep their eyes open. Ask the person with their eyes closed if they can see anything at all to confirm that their eyes are closed. Another option is to use a blindfold on the person who has their eyes closed if you want to be absolutely certain they cannot see. Slide the index finger on your opposite hand under the elastic band to stretch it between your hands. Once you have the elastic band on your finger, pull your hands 4–5 inches (10–13 cm) apart to stretch it out.

TL;DR in English: Put an invisible elastic band around one of your hands before the trick. Instruct 2 people to face each other standing 4 ft (1.2 m) apart. Ask 1 participant to close their eyes. Slip a finger between your palm and the elastic band to stretch it out.

Your body should be flowing with the movement of the horse's, rather than holding stiffly. Relax your shoulders up and back. This way, the horse can more easily sense signals from the seat. When you're first learning the half-halt, it's likely you'll use your hands more than when you get accustomed to the signal. Let the signal be very slight: turn your wrists in to increase contact with the bit.  Do not pull on the reins. You'll probably notice the horse lighten the bit and stride more evenly – however, this is most likely not a true half-halt (where the pace is maintained in the hind legs), but rather a disengagement of the hocks and consequent disruption of energy. If the horse hollows his back and raises his head, these are also signs that you need to continue to adjust your signal by engaging other aids. This signals the horse to deepen his hind-leg step. Briefly tighten your lower back muscles and squeeze your rear end, as though you were sitting on a swing and propelling yourself forward. If your elbows are hanging at your sides, the slight change in your back should travel through your arms into the reins, giving the horse enough of a signal that you do not need to manipulate the reins at all. Once you sense a bit of "halt," signal to him to keep moving steadily forward. You may do this primarily with your seat or leg, or with the two in combination.   Push your seat in a forward motion. Apply pressure with your leg lightly at the horse's side. Keeping your legs lightly against the horse's side throughout the half-halt helps ease the transition into driving forward.

TL;DR in English:


Contact your doctor if you have persistent spotting. Consider another type of birth control pill. Work with your doctor. Get regular pap smears and cervical exams. Talk your doctor about any other your medications you are taking. Inform your doctor of any new or existing medical conditions.

With an inside mount, the blinds sit inside the window or door frame. This allows the blinds to blend in with the window or door for a clean, streamlined look. An inside mount requires that the window or door frame has a certain depth in order to fit the the blinds. For vertical blinds, you usually need 3 inches (7.6 cm) to 4 inches (10 cm) of depth for an inside mount. If your frame isn’t deep enough, you’ll need to go with an outside mount. Because an outside mount hangs the blinds outside the frame, it can cover up the window or door. If you choose large enough blinds, you can actually conceal all of the unsightly feature. An outside mount covers up some of the area around the window so it can make the window appear larger. This can give your room a more balanced look.

TL;DR in English: Go with an inside mount for a cleaner look. Choose an outside mount for a frame without depth. Hide an unattractive window or door with an outside mount. Make a window look larger with an outside mount.

Measure out 2 cups (475 milliliters) of distilled water. Pour the water into a pot. Place the pot on a stove burner over high heat. Bring the water to a rolling boil. If you're not using dried herbs, there is no need to boil the distilled water. You will mix the ingredients together as is. If you’re using any dried herbs in your shampoo, measure them out now. Remember, don’t use more than 2 ounces (56 grams) total. When the water begins to boil, carefully add the herbs to the pot. After you add the dried herbs, put a lid on the pot. Reduce the heat to low. This will infuse the water with the herbs. Allow the herbs to steep in the simmering water for 15 to 20 minutes. Turn off the burner and remove the lid from the pot. Be careful, since hot steam will probably rise up after you remove the lid. Place a large bowl beneath a strainer. The spent herbs will remain behind as the infused water goes into the bowl. After you strain the spent herbs out of the water, discard the remains. Measure out 6 ounces (180 milliliters) of liquid castile soap. Slowly pour the soap into the bowl with the infused water. Mix the substances together gently as you pour in the soap. The water is probably still very hot, so be careful not to splash. Measure out and add 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) of aloe vera gel and ½ teaspoon (2.5 milliliters) of jojoba oil. Carefully add them to the bowl one at a time, stirring constantly. Mix the ingredients together well. If you are using essential oils, add them now. Remember, don’t use more than 40 to 50 drops of the essential oils. Stir well.

TL;DR in English: Bring the distilled water to a boil. Add the dried herbs of your choice. Cover the pot and reduce the heat to low. Remove the pot from heat and strain out the herbs. Pour the hot water carefully through the strainer. Add the castile soap to the herbal water. Add the aloe vera gel, jojoba and essential oils.

Section out a small piece of hair at the front of your head near the hairline. Twist this section 2-3 times in a regular braid, then use your index fingers to add additional hair to the braid. Add more hair every time you criss-cross strands. Keep doing this until you’ve added all of your hair to the braid, then secure it with an elastic.  The trickiest part of French braiding is holding your hair. Try holding a section between your second and third fingers, grasp another section between your first and second fingers, and hold the third section with the palm of your hand. Try parting your hair down the center and making 2 French braids to create texture and contrast in your hairstyle.

TL;DR in English: Braid a small section of hair and gradually add more for a French braid.

Purchase paper in any weight or color you like. For simple confetti, use white printer paper or use multicolored paper if you'd like a burst of color.  For a simple way to make unique confetti, purchase origami paper that has designs or patterns printed on them. Consider the event where the confetti will be used to determine what color confetti to make. For example, if you're making confetti for a winter party, choose paper that's pale blue, white, or silver. You don't need to buy new or expensive paper to make confetti. Look around your home for newspapers, envelopes, flyers, or wrapping paper that you can repurpose into confetti. You can also choose thin metallic materials or cellophane to turn into confetti. If you'd like confetti that floats in the air for a while before it lands, use tissue paper. It's also easy to punch out lots of tissue paper confetti since you can layer it before punching the pieces out. You can often purchase tissue paper that contains an assortment of complementary colors. If you'd like to make your confetti more interesting, use a combination of materials. For example, use a few pages of newspaper, thick ribbons, thin garland, and bright tissue paper. Remember that you can also control how you shape these different materials. You can cut the different materials into uniform pieces or into unique shapes.

TL;DR in English: Choose paper or cardstock for the most color variety. Reuse scrap or wrapping paper. Select tissue paper for the lightest confetti. Mix a variety of materials to create different textures or effects.

This is especially important if you realize you've taken a medication high in caffeine or eaten or drank something high in caffeine. Foods that are high in caffeine include things like chocolate, and beverages like tea and coffee also tend to be high in caffeine. If you have symptoms like difficulty breathing, call poison control right away to figure out how to handle the problem.  The National Poison Control Center (1-800-222-1222) in the United States can be reached at any time of day. It does not cost money to call and you can call even if it's not a medical emergency. Explain to the person on the phone your exact symptoms and what you ingested that caused an overdose. You will also be asked your age, weight, physical condition, time you took the caffeine, and amount. Ask for instructions on how to proceed. You may be advised to force yourself to vomit or to use other medications to treat your symptoms. However, do not force yourself to vomit unless instructed to do so by a professional. If you're experiencing intense symptoms, like dizziness, confusion, an irregular heartbeat, or difficulty breathing, go to the ER right away. Do not try to drive yourself. Call 911. In rare cases, caffeine overdoses can be fatal. Intense overdoses should be treated by medical professionals. If you ate or drank something unusual that caused the overdose, bring the container with you to the emergency room. At the ER, you will be given medical treatment depending on your symptoms, current health, amount of caffeine you ingested, and other factors. Talk over your symptoms with your doctor to figure out the right course of treatment for you.  You may be given activated charcoal tablets to treat an overdose. Laxatives may be used to get the caffeine out of your system. If your breathing is very bad, you may need breathing support. You may also need certain tests, like chest x-rays. For more mild cases of caffeine overdoses, you may only need medication to treat the symptoms until they pass.

TL;DR in English: Call poison control. Go to the emergency room. Get medical treatment.

If you experience spotting or breakthrough bleeding for an extended amount of time, schedule an appointment with your doctor. Your doctor needs to know if you have spotting or breakthrough bleeding for more than seven days of your cycle. In addition, spotting or bleeding that persists for more than four months warrants medical attention.  See your doctor for new episodes of spotting. The spotting or breakthrough bleeding may be caused by something unrelated to your birth control pills. If you are continuing on the same regimen of birth control pills but begin to experience mid-cycle bleeding, this may be a symptom of another problem and should be evaluated by your doctor. Breakthrough bleeding may be a sign of other problems including pregnancy or conditions involving cervical changes. If you have made lifestyle changes such as smoking, or have started taking new medications that may be interacting with the birth control pill regimen, this can cause breakthrough bleeding as well. Many birth control pills are made to contain the lowest possible amounts of some hormones. Your doctor may change your pills to a type that contains slightly higher levels of estrogen if he or she is aware of your ongoing problem with spotting. Changing to a pill formulated with a different type of progesterone, such as levonorgestrel, may also help.>  If you continue to have problems with spotting or breakthrough bleeding on your current pill, talk to your doctor about either switching to another strength or extending the number of days you take active pills vs the placebo pills at the end of most packs. There are many types of pills that are effective at preventing pregnancy. Finding the best one to suit the hormonal needs of your body is simply a matter of being patient and trying a few different types. Doctors routinely start with products that contain the lowest possible amounts of either estrogen, progesterone, or both. Changing to a brand with a slightly higher dose of estrogen usually stops the problem with spotting and...

Read the package instructions. Choose the appropriate liquid to mix with cereals. Toss out unused cereals. Be patient with your child.

Get a large bowl. Crack 2 eggs on your counter or the rim of the bowl, and empty the yolks and whites into the bowl. Add your 2 scoops (40 g) of vanilla protein powder, 1 teaspoon (5 g) of baking powder, and 6 tablespoons (90 g) of water. Mix the ingredients together with an egg whisk until the mixture has a uniform, thick texture and is even in color.  You can use almond milk instead of water if you want fluffier pancakes with a little more weight to them. This batter should be relatively thick, but may seem a little thinner than traditional pancake batter. Use your measuring cup to pour your pancakes into the skillet. Pour 3 pancakes, using 1⁄3 cup (79 mL) of the batter for each pour. Leave a few inches of space between each pancake so that the batter doesn’t overlap in the pan.  Your pancakes should be roughly 3–5 in (7.6–12.7 cm) in diameter. Give each pancake that you pour 2-3 seconds to settle on the skillet so that you can see where the batter pools up. If you lubricated the skillet with butter, turn the heat back up to medium right before you pour the batter. If you cooked your pancakes for 3 minutes on the first side, cook them for another 3 minutes on the other side. If you cooked them for 4 minutes, cook the other side for an additional 4 minutes. Once your pancakes are done cooking, remove them with your spatula and place them on your serving plates. You will be able to tell when the other side is done cooking by monitoring the edges of the pancake. If they’re turning brown and hardening, they’re finished.

TL;DR in English: Mix your eggs, protein powder, baking soda, and water in a bowl. Pour 3 pancakes into your skillet with 1–2 in (2.5–5.1 cm) between them. Cook the other side of the pancakes for 3-4 minutes.

You can purchase either seeds or young plants at a garden center. Sage can be planted in a garden or potted. When the plants have matured, cut young, tender stems with small leaves from the sage plant with a pair of garden scissors. Rinse the sage stems under cool, clean running water. Pat dry with a paper towel. Use your fingers to remove the sage leaves from the stem. Use the whole leaves or chop them into smaller pieces, depending on the recipe's instructions. If you cut more sage than you can use, store whole sprigs in a glass of water in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

TL;DR in English: Grow the sage. Harvest the sage. Clean the sage. Separate the leaves from the stem. Add the sage to your dish. Store excess sage.

In most entertaining speeches, you can take a fairly lighthearted and personal tone. Speakers often introduce themselves to the audience. Within the introduction, the speaker should explain the connection he or she has to the matter at hand and use that explanation to bridge into the speech.  This is most often seen at eulogies and weddings. The speaker introduces himself or herself and begins to explain who they are in connection to the subject being addressed. If you are delivering a wedding toast, you might begin by talking about your connection to the bride, groom, or couple getting married. It can also be used at an event being held by an organization. In that case, the speaker might explain her position within the organization. Speakers often begin a speech by referring directly to the topic at hand. This makes an immediate connection to the audience, whose members are all there for the sake of the same subject. When you have a personal connection to the subject of your speech, a common way to start your speech would be to share a personal story that demonstrates that connection. Incorporating current news stories is a good strategy because it confirms to the audience that your speech is relevant. Make a link between your speech topic and a current event by referring to something that has happened recently in the news., For example, if your speech is about the lack of women working in technology, you might find a recent story about how girls are being discouraged from pursuing science in high school. Start your speech by mentioning a relevant historical event in order to give your audience a common reference point. For example, if your speech is about overcoming challenges, you could talk about a historical figure who did just that, such as Helen Keller. Many speeches are given at professional or academic conferences. These events often have a theme that provides a sense of coherence to the overall purpose of the conference. Connect the beginning of your speech to this theme. For a speech delivered at a...

TL;DR in English: Extend a personal greeting. Recount your connection to the subject. Tell a personal story. Refer to a current event. Refer to a historical event or person. Connect to the conference theme. Refer to the occasion.

Chew your food until it’s almost liquid and there aren’t any lumps in it. For softer foods such as berries of cooked vegetables, break them up by chewing them 5-10 times. For tougher foods such as meat, start breaking them down by chewing each bite up to 30 times so it’s easier on your digestive system, which will reduce the symptoms of your gastroparesis. Taking the time to count your chews can force you to chew your food enough. Eating 2-3 large meals a day is taxing on your digestive system and will increase the severity of your gastroparesis symptoms. Eat multiple, smaller meals throughout the day so your stomach doesn’t have to produce as much stomach acid or work as hard to digest your food, which will help with your symptoms. Focus on small, but nutritionally dense meals that don’t include lots of fat or fiber. For example, Greek yogurt with some fresh berries could be a great small meal. Exercise boosts your metabolism and will also help move food through your stomach and digestive system, which will make your gastroparesis symptoms feel better. When you finish a meal, take a short 10-15 minute walk to help your body process it. Don’t overexert yourself or do intense exercise after you eat or you could make your symptoms worse. Lying down makes it more difficult for your stomach to process the food that you eat and will make your symptoms worse. After you finish a meal, give your body enough time to process it and empty your stomach before you lie down on the couch or in bed. Smoking causes damage to your stomach lining and affects your digestion, both of which will exacerbate your gastroparesis symptoms. If you do smoke, quit as soon as you can to improve your symptoms. If you’re around others who smoke, try to avoid breathing in the secondhand smoke.

TL;DR in English: Chew your food thoroughly before you swallow to make it easier to digest. Eat 5-6 small meals to minimize stress on your digestive system. Go for a light walk after you eat to help digest your food. Avoid lying down for 2 hours after you eat. Quit smoking or avoid secondhand smoke so you don’t irritate your stomach.

Once you've gotten the bleeding under control, you can start the cleaning process. If your dog has long hair, you may need to trim it away, but do so only if you can do it safely. If you don’t have clippers, carefully use blunt scissors to shorten the hair, but don't try to get down to the skin with scissors, as this increases the chance of further injury. Clearing away the dog's fur will let you a good look at the wound, and will keep hair from trapping dirt or irritating the exposed flesh. Add 2 tsp of sea salt to 1 cup warm tap water, and stir until it dissolves. Fill a turkey baster or syringe (without the needle) with the mixture, then squirt it gently into the wound until it's clean. The tissue should be clear and glistening before you stop flushing the wound.  If you don't have a baster or syringe, pour the water directly over the wound. If the wound is on the paw, you can soak the foot in a bowl, baking dish or small bucket for three to five minutes. Have a towel handy to dry the paw. Dilute Betadine (Povidine Iodine) or Nolvasan (Chlorhexidine) in warm water. Use this solution as a final rinse or soak. You can also use these solutions instead of saline when you're first cleaning the wound. A sterile gauze is ideal, but any clean absorbent material will be fine. Don't rub or scrub at the wound. Instead, pat it gently to avoid causing more pain or injury. Be aware that a spray might scare your dog, and may even sting for a little bit. Don't use creams and ointments if you have another option, as they might attract dirt to the wound. Furthermore, your dog will likely try to lick it off, so use those products only if you can prevent the dog from bothering the area. You can either wrap the treated area with protective gauze or use an Elizabethan collar.  Be careful that you don't spray anything into the dog's eyes. Don't use ointments with steroids like hydrocortisone or betamethasone that may interfere with the wound's healing process. Use only antibiotic ointments. Do not use antifungal creams...

TL;DR in English: Clip away hair from around the wound with electric clippers. Flush out the wound with warm salt water. Disinfect the wound. Dry the wound. Apply an antibiotic cream or spray safe for humans. Check the wound daily.

Regardless of what type of cereal you purchase for your baby, it's important to make sure that you follow the mixing instructions correctly.  This will help ensure your baby is getting the right amount of cereal.  Each infant cereal will have specific instructions listed on the actual product.  Before you purchase a product, make sure you read over the instructions. If you need to cook or heat the cereal, make sure to follow the directions to ensure the cereal is prepared correctly.  Always allow a cereal to come down to room temperature before feeding it to your child. The cereal should be mixed until it's a thin and quite liquid consistency.  You may need to add more milk or formula to get it to the right consistency. When preparing an infant or baby cereal, you'll need to mix the dry cereal with a liquid.  Take advantage of this opportunity to add more nutrition to your baby's cereal.  Most cereals will tell you to mix with breast milk or formula.  This helps increase the nutrient content (especially in terms of protein and fat) of the cereal.  It's essential that you do this step. You can mix your infant cereal with water if you do not have any breast milk or formula available to you.  However, try to limit how often you do this. Like most baby foods, you do not want to keep prepared cereals long.  Feeding your child leftovers can put them in danger of getting sick.  You need to be extra careful with how long you store uneaten baby cereals.  Babies and infants are the most susceptible to foodborne illness since their immune systems are still immature. If you make extra baby cereal, only put a few tablespoons into a bowl.  Do not feed your child from the larger serving.  Saliva can contaminate the cereal if you were to store it the refrigerator. Throw out any extra cereal your child didn't consume from their pre-portioned serving.  In addition, only keep baby cereal for 24 hrs. All children tolerate foods at different stages and at different times.  As you and your child get the hang of eating solids,...

TL;DR in English:


Decide what it means to be "genuine. Spend time with those who charge you up. Wake up! Get vulnerable. Be honest. Know your impact. Look how you want to look.

If you haven't already, discuss the issue with your doctor. It may be that you don't need to gain weight. If you do, your doctor can help you estimate how many calories you need, as well as help you make a plan to increase your calories in a way that's healthy for you and your baby. Your doctor may also recommend you see a nutritionist, who can provide you with one-on-one help to make a dietary plan. These calculators use factors like your weight and height to help determine how many calories you need. Since you're breastfeeding, use one that factors that in, as you need more calories. Try the one from the U.S. Government at https://www.choosemyplate.gov/MyPlatePlan.  This particular calculator tells you how many calories per day you need to maintain your weight. Be sure to mark that you're breastfeeding. To gain a pound, you need to eat 3,500 calories more than you're burning. That can be over any period of time, such as a week or a month. A food journal can help you estimate how many calories you're consuming each day.  Write down the foods you eat for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Add up the number of calories you're eating. You can use this chart to help you out: https://www.cdc.gov/healthyweight/pdf/food_diary_cdc.pdf. If you're not used to counting calories, you may need to measure your foods to accurately represent what you're eating. For instance, you may not be able to visually estimate what a serving of pasta looks like. Use online calorie counters to help you estimate you're servings. You can also use apps to help you count calories. You need to be taking in more calories per day than what you need to maintain your weight. Take the number you got from what you're eating, and see if it is equal to, less than, or more than that number. So if the calculator tells you need 2200 calories to maintain your weight as a breastfeeding mother, you'll need to take in 2300-2400 calories a day at least to gain weight. To gain a pound a week, you'd need to take in an extra 500 calories a day.

TL;DR in English: Talk to a doctor or nutritionist about your nutrition needs. Determine your caloric needs while breastfeeding. Keep a food journal to estimate how many calories you're eating. Compare your caloric intake with the calories you need to maintain your weight.

The Slow Food Movement emphasizes buying from vendors based in your community or area. Look for local vendors at your local supermarket. Check the label to confirm the product was made by a local producer or grown by a local farmer. Try buying local vegetables, fruits, grains, and dairy.  Shop at local farmer’s markets in your area to ensure all your produce is locally grown and you know exactly where it came from. Contact farmers in your area and buy from them directly so you have access to fresh, local food. Get to know your local farmers so you know the history of your food and how it is grown. Buy foods that have not been genetically modified, especially fruits and vegetables. This will ensure you are eating clean food that has not been tampered with in any way.   Try to find foods that are certified organic. They will be labeled organic in the supermarket. You can also ask local vendors if their food is organic and non-GMO. The Slow Food Movement emphasizes eating less meat in your diet and having more vegetables, fruits, and grains. Try reducing your meat consumption so you only have it one to two times a week. If you do buy meat, get it from a local butcher. Confirm the meat is from a high quality animal that has been treated well.  Having less meat will also follow the environmental aspect of the Slow Food Movement, as commercial meat production can be hard on the environment.

TL;DR in English: Buy from local vendors. Shop for organic, non-GMO foods. Purchase less meat.

You should remove any hazardous decorations or aggressive fish from your betta’s environment. Your fish’s vision is most likely impaired, which means that the likelihood of running into sharp objects inside the aquarium or getting even more injured by other fish is higher. Avoid this easily by putting your fish in its own separate tank temporarily. Epsom salt, or magnesium sulfate, does a good job of removing the fluid that’s built up behind your betta fish’s eye. Every three days, add one tablespoon for every 5 gallons (18.9 L) of water that your fish is in. There are several different antibiotics that when added to the betta fish’s water, will make the popeye subside. Typically, you can purchase these antibiotics at pet stores.  Put ampicillin in the fish tank and switch out the water every third day. Administer the medicine until a week after your fish’s popeye has gone away.  If you catch the popeye early enough, you can use erythromycin, minocycline, trimethoprim, or sulfadimidine, which are all antibiotics typically used to treat fin rot. It can take anywhere from a couple weeks to a couple months for the swelling to go down, and even longer for cornea damage to improve. Reintroduce your betta to its original environment a couple of weeks after its eyes look their normal size. In more severe cases, one of the betta’s eyes might decay and fall off during the healing process. If this happens, keep your betta isolated permanently.

TL;DR in English: Isolate the betta fish. Put epsom salts in the fish tank. Add an antibiotic to the betta fish’s water. Return your betta fish to its original tank after the swelling subsides.

Holy basil tea is great for relieving mild, occasional bouts of emotional stress or receiving its health benefits in low doses. Take a cup when you're feeling nervous or overwhelmed to receive relief within several hours. You can buy holy basil tea at some alternative health stores or steep holy basil leaves in water yourself. Holy basil capsules or tablets are concentrated and offer a stronger dose than teas. Buy holy basil capsules online or at some health food stores, and take it with food or water to help your body absorb it quickly.  Because of their potency and relaxing supplements, holy basil capsules can be used as natural sleep supplements.  Never take more than the package's recommended dosage at a time. Holy basil soup is an effective way to receive its health benefits if you dislike the taste of tea. Holy basil pairs particularly well with shiitake, maitake, and reishi mushrooms or astragalus, codonopsis, or burdock root in soups. If you'd prefer not to take holy basil as a tea, you can take a concentrated extract with other drinks. Buy a holy basil extract online or from a health food store and add several drops to water or another drink, depending on your preference.  You can also rub holy basil extract against the skin to relieve skin irritation or inflammation. Using an extract is an ideal way to take holy basil if you don't want to take a capsule but dislike the herb's distinct taste.

TL;DR in English: Drink a cup of holy basil tea to treat mild conditions. Take holy basil capsules for their potency. Steep holy basil leaves to make a medicinal soup. Try a holy basil extract to ingest it with any drink.

Don't just be willing to hear your parents out — actively ask for their input in the decision. The better you understand why they don't want you to wear makeup, the better you can address their concerns.  "I know why I think makeup will make me feel better. Why do you think it will be bad for me?" Pay close attention to what they say, and try to answer each of their concerns directly. Your parents might be worried that overnight, you're going to change from their little girl to a fully made-up woman. Ease that concern by starting small.  Say that you want to start with only concealer and blush to hide your acne. You might ask for a little more leeway every year, as you get older. After a year, ask if you can add eye-shadow to your makeup routine, or eye-liner. If your parents are worried that you're trying to grow up too fast, they might be right. Think of how silly your mother would look with bright pink lipstick and blue nail polish! She looks good in makeup because she wears makeup appropriate for her age. Explain to your parents that you'll do the same thing.  Ask for lightly tinted lip balms or glosses instead of a deep red, sexy lipstick. Keep all makeup on your face light and natural-looking. You want to enhance your natural beauty, not change your face. Maybelline Baby Lips is a good tinted lip balm to start out with. You don't want your parents to think that you want something for nothing. Be willing to give them something they want in return for your makeup privileges. Some examples might include:  You can only wear makeup as long as you keep your grades up. You'll take on an extra weekly chore around the house. Makeup doesn't have to mean that you're growing up and away from your parents. It can actually bring you closer together! Go to sephora/local makeup store or watch YouTube tutorials with your mom, you could look at products and find out what is acceptable and unacceptable. YouTube tutorials would give clear ideas of what makeup looks are okay and what aren't. Going into the store also allows...

TL;DR in English: Ask them to explain their concerns. Start small at first. Ask only for age-appropriate makeup. Negotiate a deal with your parents. Make makeup a bonding experience.

" This may not be as easy as it seems, considering the immense influence the media has on us all. Sure, we are all unique individuals, but few, if any, people have absolute resistance to the persuasive influence of advertisers, the media, and peer pressure to conform. Because it's so difficult, decide what genuine means to you. The beauty of it is that you get to choose. Does being genuine mean pursuing your own fashion? Does it mean saying whatever crosses your mind? Does it mean showing your emotions, whatever they are? Does it mean ignoring what's popular? There are many takes on this concept -- what speaks to you? If you've gotten rid of your toxic friends (we all have 'em), this shouldn't be too hard. Who do you crave hanging out with? Who always makes you feel good about yourself? And then think about this: who is the person you are afterward? We all have versions of ourselves. Some are "worse" than others, as they can't all be the same. The idea here is to bring out the best you and to make that "best you" a constant. And the best you is naturally genuine, obviously. You know the phrase "stop and smell the roses?" Kinda like that. Tons of us go around in a technology-induced stupor, barely doing the thing we call living. We're unaware of how we come off, how we actually feel, how we influence others, etc. So wake up! Pay attention the world around you. Stop right now and look around your environment. Note 4 things you didn't notice before. Crazy how your mind just sifts out stimuli, huh? There's so much going on in our heads sometimes it's hard to realize we're playing those games we talked about, especially when we've been playing them since we were babies. If it would help, start watching other people. How are they placating others? How do they phrase things? How do they position their bodies? Once you notice other people not saying and doing what they mean/want, you can notice similar patterns in yourself, waking yourself up. When you abandon the mind games and socially acceptable behavior, you're...

TL;DR in English:


Apply fertilizer once every two weeks. Water papaya seedlings and established plants regularly. Apply bark mulch or wood chips if necessary. Inspect the papaya's leaves and bark regularly for signs of disease or insects. Harvest papaya fruits when they reach the level of ripeness you desire.

If the dog seems open to being approached (he sits or stands without raised fur or bared teeth, and doesn't growl or snap at you), start to gain his trust. Offer something like a treat that builds trust and lets the dog know you have good intentions. Slowly approach him and offer the back of your hand with your palm down for the dog to sniff. Take your time and pause if he becomes frightened or hostile.  Pay attention to what triggers an emotional response from the dog and be sensitive. Pause and allow the dog to get more comfortable before starting to approach the dog again. Never reach over the dog's head or body. The dog will see this as a threat and either run away or may bite you before retreating. Once you've gained the dog's trust and you can get close to him, restrain him. Quickly and quietly slip a leash or rope around his neck. This is important to control the dog and prevent him from running away. If the dog twists and tries to get away after you've gotten a leash on him, try to verbally reassure him. For example, say, "Calm down, boy," in a gentle, but firm voice. If you take the dog to any veterinary clinic or the Humane Society, they can check for a microchip that locates the owners. If the dog has an owner, the owner will be notified and your job is done. If there's no microchip, you could still try to find the owners by doing any of the following:  Post “found dog” flyers around the neighborhood where you found the dog. If the dog has a home, it is likely that he didn’t wander off too far from it. Notify local veterinary clinics, animal shelters and animal control/police departments that you found a dog. Give a thorough description of the dog—color, gender, breed, weight, and any other distinguishing characteristics. Call the local radio station to see if a lost dog has been reported or to see if they will mention it on the air. This is a good option in small communities. Post found dog ads on-line and with local community newspapers. If you decide to bring the dog to your home, have him...

TL;DR in English: Build rapport. Restrain the dog. Find the dog's owners. Take the dog to the vet. Foster your rescue.

You can buy a water bowl from your local pet store or make one yourself. Bearded dragons sometimes like to take baths in their water bowls, so make sure that it’s large enough for that.  The water bowl should have sides that are low enough for the bearded dragon to be able to get into and out of the the water dish. If making your own bowl, you can use the plastic container from a frozen dinner, which is the perfect size. Once you’ve filled the bowl with water, add something that will entice the dragon to drink from it. Good choices are natural fruit juices, such as apple or pear juice. Add just enough juice to flavor the water and make it tasty.  Make sure the juice is 100% juice and doesn’t have added sugars or artificial ingredients. You can experiment with different juices if the dragon doesn’t seem to like your first choice. The sweet smell of the juice should lure the dragon to the water bowl. If it doesn’t, you can try adding a bit more juice to make the smell stronger.  Make sure to replace the water and juice regularly, as dragons may defecate into the water even if they haven’t drunk from it. Replace with a juice and water mixture after cleaning the water dish if the dragon still hasn’t drank from it. Once the dragon has realized that it can satisfy its thirst with the bowl, it will know to go there when it’s thirsty. From now on you can fill the bowl up with only water.  Keep an eye on your dragon to make sure that it is in fact drinking. Bearded dragons don’t need very much water, so it may be hard to catch them drinking. A bearded dragon's water dish needs to be cleaned everyday, since they will often defecate in their bowls.

TL;DR in English: Place a water bowl in the cage. Add juice to the bowl. Repeat the process until your dragon drinks. Replace the juice and water mixture with water.

Add ⅔ cup (165 g) of whole-milk yogurt, 1 finely grated clove of garlic, 2 teaspoons (30 ml) of fresh lemon juice, ½ teaspoon (3 ½ g) of honey, and 3 ounces (85 g) of crumbled blue cheese to a medium bowl. Stir the ingredients together well with a spoon, making sure to break up the cheese. Don't use Greek yogurt in this recipe. Plain yogurt is the best option. After you've prepared the yogurt mixture, add some kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. It's a good idea to taste the mixture so you know how much salt and pepper that you want to mix in. Once you've seasoned the yogurt mixture, take the leaves from 2 heads of Little Gem lettuce and place a 1 to 2 teaspoons (5 to 10 g) of the mixture in the center of the leaves. Next, use 6 ounces (170 g) of cooked and chopped bacon and the remaining 3 ounces (85 g) of crumbled blue cheese to top all of the lettuce boats. You can use the spoon to spread the yogurt mixture slightly to ensure that it's evenly distributed across the center of the leaves. Once you've filled all of the lettuce boats, arrange them on a serving platter. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons (6 g) of finely chopped chives over the lettuce boats for garnish. Add several lemon wedges to the platter so you can squeeze them over the boats when serving. You can omit the chives if you prefer.

TL;DR in English: Combine the yogurt, garlic, lemon juice, honey, and half of the blue cheese. Season the yogurt mixture with salt and pepper. Spoon some of the mixture on the lettuce leaves and top with bacon and cheese. Place the boats on a platter with chives and lemon wedges to serve.

The first place to start is with your local weather. Turn on the local forecast or go online and look up the day’s temperature. Be aware of any inclement weather and listen especially for excessive heat or cold warnings. Take note of the temperature if you have an outdoor thermometer. This will give you some idea of the conditions outside. But keep in mind that it doesn’t give the whole story: thermometers record the air temperature. They do not register wind chill or heat index, which make it feel colder or warmer than the actual air temperature. Extreme cold can lead to hypothermia, when the body’s natural temperature gets too low, or frostbite. The Canadian Pediatric Society recommends that children play inside in temperatures under -25ºC/-13ºF However, this is the absolute limit – when the skin begins to freeze in only a few minutes.  The state of Oklahoma recommends that children play inside when wind chills fall below 10ºF. However, kids need to come inside for breaks every 20 to 30 minutes when the wind chill is below 32ºF.  In the United States, the National Weather Service will issue a wind chill advisory or warning when wind chills are low enough to pose a threat to human life. If your area is under such a warning, you should definitely keep your kids inside. Very hot conditions can put children at risk of heatstroke, heat exhaustion, burns from hot object like playground equipment, sunburn, and excessive thirst, especially during active play. Have kids stay indoors when temperatures are over 35ºC - 40ºC/95ºF - 100ºF and wait for it to cool down.  If your kids are active, or if you live in a warmer climate, it is a good idea to limit play or exercise to cooler periods in the morning or evening. Avoid playing in hot weather between 10am - 4pm.  The National Weather Service issues excessive heat warning and advisories whenever it is hot enough to be hazardous to human health. You should keep your kids inside if your area is under such a warning. Many schools have rules on what temperatures are...

TL;DR in English: Check the local weather forecast. Keep children indoors in very cold conditions. Keep children indoors in very hot temperatures. Follow your school’s guidelines.

Sometimes people can be completely unaware that they have a warrant out for their arrest. Knowing when the warrant was issued could shed light on some important details.  There may be fines associated with your charge that have been accumulating since the warrant was issued. These will be listed among the warrant information. If the warrant was issued a long time ago, you’ll want to get the matter settled quickly before incurring any further penalties. Additionally, in some case, if the warrant was issued long ago, a person cannot be prosecuted for the crime. It is not that the warrant has expired, but some crimes have a limited statute of limitations (period in which the suspect can be prosecuted). Therefore, if you believe that you may have a warrant out for your arrest for an underlying incident that occurred over 2 years ago, look up the charge that would appear on the warrant (or something similar) to see if there is a limit on the time that the warrant would be valid. If you know what you’re being charged with, you can more adequately prepare your response. Vital information includes the date of offense, the details of the charges, and the case type (e.g., felony, misdemeanor, traffic ticket, etc.).  You may be able to avoid being arrested by paying a fine. The severity of your charge may influence your choice of legal representation. Also note any date of conviction, sentencing, disposition, and probation, if they apply to your case. If you’re concerned that you will go to jail, knowing the predetermined bail amount for your charge could help you raise the funds to avoid jail time while awaiting your trial.

TL;DR in English: Find out when the warrant was issued. Inquire about the charges. Note the bail amount.

Apply fertilizer to growing plants every 10–14 days, diluting it according to the fertilizer's instructions. Use a "complete" fertilizer, not a specialized one. Continue to apply at least until the plants are about 12 inches (30 cm) tall. After the plant reaches this size, commercial growers continue to fertilize papaya every two weeks with 1/4 lb. (0.1 kg) complete fertilizer near but not touching the base of the plant. Follow this practice if you would like to hasten the plant's growth, gradually increasing the amount of fertilizer and length of time between applications until the papayas receive no more than 2 lb. (0.9 kg) every two months starting at seven months old. Papayas can be easily damaged by standing pools of water, but may not produce sizable fruit without regular water access. If planted in loam that holds water well, water no more than once every three or four days. In sandy or rocky soils, increase this to once every one to two days during hot weather. Allow a few more days between waterings during cooler seasons. Apply pine bark, another bark mulch, or wood chips around the base of the plant if you need to reduce weeds or if the plant looks withered from failure to retain water. Layer 2 inches (5 cm) of mulch around the papaya, no closer than 8 inches (20 cm) to the trunk. Spots or yellowing on leaves or bark indicate possible disease. Black spots on the leaf won't typically affect the fruit, but may be treated with fungicide if the infection is severe. Curling leaves may be a sign of picking up herbicide from a nearby lawn. Other problems, including insects or full plant collapse, may require consulting an expert gardener or local agricultural department. Tart, green fruits may be eaten as a vegetable, but many people prefer fully ripe, yellow or orange fruits for their sweet taste. You may harvest anytime after the fruit is mostly yellow-green, if you would like them to finish ripening indoors, away from pests.

Wash your hair. Massage 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of pre-styling mousse into your damp hair. Blow-dry your hair on medium/high heat for 5-6 minutes. Use a round brush to sweep your hair upward and back. Blow-dry your hair on the cold setting for 1-2 minutes. Apply 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) of hair clay or paste for a dry look. Apply 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of hair gel or wax for a wet finish. Finish off with some hairspray. Experiment with different products.

Try everything on separately first to make sure it fits. Make any necessary adjustments before putting your costume on. Make sure you have everything you need to become Darth Vader. This includes: padding (optional), helmet, black long-sleeve shirt and pants, black cape, black gloves, and black boots. While padding is not necessary, it adds bulk and gives the impression of muscles. You can use old football or hockey gear, such as shoulder and chest pads, shin guards, and/or an athletic girdle. To avoid chafing, you should wear a t-shirt and briefs under the pads. If wearing one, put the athletic girdle or shapewear on first. Next, position the shoulder pads so they are comfortable and have someone help you secure them in the front and back. Finally, tie or strap-on knee of shin guards.  Pads can be bulky and make it difficult or uncomfortable to move around in. If you are not used to them, practice wearing them around the house for a few hours over several days. Use duct tape (attached to clothing - not skin) to help secure pads that feel loose or shift too much. Sports equipment is expensive. If you do not have pads of your own, ask to borrow them from a friend or check a second-hand store or consignment shop for clean used items. You pants and long-sleeve shirt or sweatshirt should fit snugly but not be too tight. If you decide not to wear pads, but still want to create a bulky look, consider wearing a thick sweatshirt or layer several shirts. You can do the same for pants - wear two pairs of sweatpants, or pull black sweatpants over a regular pair of jeans. Layering clothing is also a good idea if you will be wearing the costume outside in cold weather. Pull your boots up over your pants or tuck your pants into your boots. If necessary, lace-up and tie your boots before putting on your gloves. If you made boot covers, you can simply pull them over your sneakers. Try walking around. Stamp your feet when you walk so you look more intimidating. Tie or Velcro your cape around your neck. Adjust it so it is...

This is one of the easiest ways to keep a cat indoors, especially so if you have multiple cats.  Neutering and spaying makes cats less territorial and inhibits their tendency to roam.  Cats that have not been fixed will not adjust as well to being kept indoors, especially if they used to have access to the outside world. Plus, cats that have been neutered/spayed are more sociable and tend to have better health. Place your cat in a location away from any doors or windows through which it might escape.  Click a clicker with one hand and, at the same time, use your free hand to administer a treat.  Say “Good cat” in a gentle, reassuring way and pet the cat.  Repeat three or four times per training session, and hold several such training sessions daily.  After a week or so, your cat should begin to associate the sound of the clicker with being in that location.  From then on, perform one or two sessions daily for another week. After the second week, your cat should know where it needs to be when you enter and exit.  From then on, click the clicker and administer two or three treats to occupy your cat just before you leave. Take the clicker with you or leave it right by the door.  When you come home, click the clicker and lavish your cat with positive attention. Sometimes your cat just wants to satisfy its curiosity about the great big world outside.  Place your cat in its harness and connect it to a leash.  Take your cat for a walk around the block, or take it to the park to help it get in touch with its wild side.  With luck, this will diminish your cat’s urges to go outdoors, at least for a few days.

TL;DR in English: Spay or neuter your cat. Train your cat to sit and stay away from exits. Walk your cat.

By using chemical pesticides, you can often kill the insects that prey on spider mites, making it easier for spider mites to grow and populate on your plants. Spider mites have also been known to develop quick resistance to some pesticides, so it's best to control spider mites with natural methods.  Female spider mites can produce up to 300 eggs continuously over a few weeks. If some eggs are unable to be killed by pesticides, the mite problem may only get worse. Before taking any steps to remove spider mites, you'll want to remove the infected plants to an area without any other plants. This will prevent the spider mites from spreading and harming your other plants. After removing the infected plant to an isolated area, begin pruning the plant, removing any stems, leaves, or other infested parts of the plant and throw in the trash. Make sure to remove until all webbing is gone. Unfortunately, you may have to remove entire plants to prevent mites from spreading to other plants if the plant is overly infested.  Make sure to throw leaves directly in a trash bag so they won't spread. Throwing them in your compost pile will allow spider mites to escape to your other plants. Using a high pressure water hose or nozzle, spray plant generously. This will dislodge spider mites from the plant and kill some of them, reducing the number of spider mites on your plant. If treating an indoor plant, use a wet sponge or take it outdoors to spray.  This treatment typically has to be repeated in order to effectively remove spider mites. This is a great step, because allowing natural predators to inhabit your plant will keep spider mite population to a minimum, if not dissolving it completely, and you won't have to worry about spider mites continually infecting your plants. You can purchase these predators from reputable nurseries.  Ladybugs, lacewing, and predatory mites are the best predators for spider mites The best time to release predators is when spider mite levels are relatively low. You'll also want to make sure the...

TL;DR in English: Know the benefits of organic treatment. Isolate the plant immediately. Prune the plant. Spray the plant with water. Introduce natural predators. Create a soap spray. Use hot pepper spray. Spray plant with an oil solution.

Although the classic combination is hot tea and whiskey, you can also make a variation of the drink using cold or iced green tea.  Cold green tea mixed with whiskey is considered by some to be a drink common in China. Some people put Irish whiskey, sweet bourbons or scotches into iced green tea instead. You could also use iced tea. Green tea is a neutral enough flavor, which is why mixing it with whiskey can spice it up. However, it’s not the classic way to make the drink. Really, you should try variations that play to your tastes. There is not one single way to make a drink, so play around and be creative! Although combining whiskey with hot tea is a great way to make a drink, if you don’t have any whiskey around or don’t like its flavor, you could try other hard liquor.  Scotch mixed with Earl Grey tea is one combination you might want to try. You could also mix Bourbon or Scotch with tea. Some people make the drink with brandy.  Gunpowder teas have a smoky flavor that goes well with a full-bodied and equally smoky Scotch. There are many different types of hard liquor you can mix with hot tea. Maybe you want a hot toddy but you are trying to avoid caffeine or simply don’t like the taste of tea. There are variations of this hot whiskey drink without tea.  Place 2 ounces (.05 kilogram) of whiskey in a large microwaveable mug. Add 1 tablespoon of honey and pour hot water into the mug. You could try using hot cider instead of tea. The process works the same way. This is a good variation for people trying to stay away from caffeine. Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice. Now, place the mug in the microwave for 1 minute and take it out when it is piping hot. Add a lemon slice and drink.

TL;DR in English: Try using cold green tea. Put other liquor into the tea. Go without tea.

You'll have an easier time adding volume to your hairstyle if you're working with clean hair. Gently dry off with a towel when you’re finished. Rub a palm-sized amount of mousse between your hands, and then run your fingers from the front to the back of your scalp. Massage the product into sections of hair as you go. Using mousse will help add volume and shape to your hair. For bonus utility, opt for a mousse that doubles as a heat protectant. Dry your hair from the back of your head to the front, so that your dry back hairs can serve as a surface to layer your longer front hairs. As you dry your hair, use a wave-like brushing motion. This will lock your hair in an upward sweeping motion, while creating volume throughout your hair. For short hair, this may be all you need to get it to stand straight up. Longer hair may need the help of additional product. At the end of your 5-6 minute drying interval on medium/hot, switch the setting on your blowdryer to cold. Stick with this setting until your hair is completely dry. Using the cold setting for the final minutes of your drying session will help lock in the shape of your hairstyle. Rub a dime-sized amount of product between the palms of your hands, and incorporate it into your freshly volumized locks. Using product will help your hair hold its shape while maintaining a natural look.  If your hair is thick, use a hair clay. If your hair is on the thinner side, opt for a paste. Using too much product can weigh down your hair, which can prevent it from standing up. When in doubt, use less clay/paste than you think you’ll need. You can always apply more later. Rub a quarter-sized amount of product between your fingers, and use the product to sculpt your hair into spikes. When using gels and waxes, start from the roots of your hair, and comb upwards with your fingers. Gels and waxes will sculpt your hair in a firm, spiky style that will appear wet all day. This step is optional, but using hairspray will help ensure that your hairstyle holds its shape. Give your...

If you take an iron supplement as directed by your doctor, you should be able to improve your iron levels over time, which may treat anemia caused by iron deficiency. There are some side effects from iron supplementation, including dark stools, stomach upset, heartburn, and constipation. If your anemia is mild, your doctor may just recommend that you eat more iron-rich foods. The following are good sources of iron:  Red meat (beef and liver) Poultry (chicken and turkey) Seafood Cereals and breads fortified with iron Legumes (peas; lentils; white, red, and baked beans; soybeans; and chickpeas) Tofu Dried fruits (prunes, raisins, and apricots) Spinach and other dark green leafy vegetables Prune juice Vitamin C helps your body absorb iron, so your doctor will likely recommend that you drink a glass of orange juice or consume foods high in vitamin C along with your iron supplement. If your anemia is caused by a vitamin deficiency, take a vitamin B12 supplement if your doctor recommends it. Most likely, your doctor will give you a vitamin B12 injection or pill once a month. This will allow your doctor to monitor your red blood levels and determine how long treatment is needed. You can also get vitamin B12 from food. Foods high in vitamin B12 include:  Eggs Milk Cheese Meat Fish Shellfish Poultry Foods fortified with vitamin B12 (like soy beverages and vegetarian burgers) Folic acid is another B vitamin that is needed for proper blood cell growth. A folate deficiency can cause anemia, so your doctor will most likely recommend a supplement dosage to treat your condition. If your symptoms are moderate to severe, you may be given folate injections or pills for at least 2 to 3 months. You can also get folate from your diet. Foods with high levels of folic acid include:  Bread, pasta, and rice fortified with folic acid Spinach and other dark green leafy vegetables Black-eyed peas and dried beans Beef liver Eggs Bananas, oranges, orange juice, and some other fruits and juices Alcohol can keep your body from producing...

TL;DR in English: Increase your iron intake. Take vitamin B12. Get more folate (folic acid). Limit your alcohol intake.

If the calculator is already on, you can move straight to adjusting the number of decimal places. You can, in fact, adjust the number of decimal places displayed for calculations you are currently working on.  For example, if the display currently reads |3.00| and you change the number of decimal places to 4, the display will read |3.0000| once you exit from the decimal-changing process. No matter what you set the calculator to display, it always internally calculates numbers to 13 decimal places. In other words, the calculator may display |3.00|, but it treats the number as 3.0000000000000. This is the “second function” button. Most buttons on the TI BA II Plus have a label on them and a label above them. Hitting the [2nd] button activates the upper labels (the “second functions”) for just the next button push. For example, the [5] button has a “%” label above it. If you want to activate the “%” second function (that is, turn the [5] button into the [%] button), press the [2nd] button immediately beforehand. ] button located at the center bottom of the pad. This button has a “FORMAT” label above it. Because you just pressed the [2nd] button, this second function is active and the [.] now operates as the [FORMAT] button. This confirms that you are now in the formatting menu for the TI BA II Plus. The “DEC” stands for decimals, and the “2.00” shows that the calculator is currently set to display 2 decimal places (the default for the device). If the decimal place setting has already been changed before, the screen will display the current setting. For instance, if the calculator is currently set to show 3 decimal places, the screen will display |DEC = 3.000|.

TL;DR in English: Turn on the calculator, if needed, by pressing the [ON/OFF] button. Push the [2nd] button near the top left of the keypad. Touch the [. Check for |DEC = 2.00| on the screen display.

The easiest way to keep people involved is to set regular meetings at the same place and time every few weeks. Try a once-a-month meeting, unless you’re going to have lots of events that would require more frequent meetings. Use your email server to create a shared calendar that everyone on the committee has access to. If you don’t have a company email that offers calendars, use a service like Google calendars. Log the dates and times for meetings and parties, as well as due dates for certain tasks. Send an email to your manager (or the manager who approved the committee) after every meeting with the meeting minutes attached. Meet with them periodically to discuss your progress and to run ideas by them for new events. A social committee can start to feel exclusive if it’s the same people planning all the events. Send out an email every few months inviting people to join you at your next meeting or jump into the next rotation. Creating an online sign-up spreadsheet can help people easily get in line. For example, say something like, "We're always looking for new perspectives and ideas, so join us at our next meeting!"

TL;DR in English: Set a regular meeting schedule. Create a shared calendar. Report to management after every meeting. Encourage new members to join.

The harness should be wide and padded, not a thin rock-climbing harness. Rope belts are used in some parts of the world, but these won't secure you nearly as well. Read the instructions below first, to decide on a method of climbing the tree. You might be able to buy all your gear as part of a kit, to save money. Find a strong rope or webbing, with no significant stretch (or labeled "static"). The rope should be braided, not twisted, so it won't send you spinning, although this is a little less important since you won't be dangling from the rope. Tree-climbing or "arborist" rope is the best choice. These devices attach to the tree and provide loops for your hands and feet. To ascend, all you need to do is alternate lifting your hands and feet, and the machine will do most of the work for you. It is still a good idea to secure yourself to the tree trunk using a length of rope and a harness, using the equipment described above. There are several designs of climbing machines. Refer to the instructions specific to your model before you try to ascend. This is an easy, safe way to climb straight palm trees shorter than the stick ladder. Look for this equipment in hunting goods stores, since the ladders are often used to make hunting platforms. Follow these instructions to stay safe during your ascent:  Assemble your stick ladder and lean it against the tree. Push it into the ground and clip it to a strap or length of rope tied around the tree. Loop another strap or rope around the tree, and clip both ends onto your harness. Adjust until the strap is taut when you stand on the ladder. Climb the ladder, periodically tying additional straps around the tree and onto the rungs. It is possible to make climbing easier and more secure even if you don't have any special equipment. Because your knots must be precise and high-quality, it's best to learn directly from an experienced professional. Here is the basic idea:  Wrap rope around the tree, and fasten both ends to your harness. With another length of rope, make a loop...

TL;DR in English: Find a comfortable harness. Choose your rope. Use a palm climbing machine. Try a stick ladder. Climb with rope loops.

While pyramid schemes often require a hefty buy-in, sometimes several hundred or thousand dollars, a legitimate multi-level marketing program will have a small start-up cost. You should be expected to pay for your first round of products and maybe a small fee for training costs or joining the program.  One way to recognize a pyramid scheme is if the company pressures you to pay a fee to move up the ladder. If you have to take out a loan or go into debt to join a program, think long and hard before jumping in. Legitimate companies are required to buy back inventory at 80-90% of the cost you paid for it. Ask if there are any conditions for buying back unused inventory, and be sure to read the small print. If the company doesn't buy back, ask yourself what you will do with your inventory if you can't sell it. Can people make enough money to live on through sales? Or does the bulk of the money come from recruiting other distributors and making commission through them? If new recruits struggle to make sales and get commissions while top recruiters are making thousands of dollars a month, the program could be a pyramid scheme.  Ask how many new recruits are successful and how many drop out. Do they get their money back? According to the FDA, 70% of your income should come from direct sales rather than recruiting. If you are jumping on the bandwagon with a popular MLM company, especially in a small community, the market may already be oversaturated. Are there people in your social circle who would be interested in buying your product? Will they be able to afford it? Did someone else from your program already reach them? If you have a large network and can rely on your friends and family to spread the word about your new business, you might be a good candidate for network marketing.

TL;DR in English: Look for programs with a low start-up cost. Ask if the company will buy back unsold inventory. Look at who is making the most money in the company. Be realistic about your potential market.

Most charitable organizations have steps for you to follow when you are donating money. You can usually mail a check or money order. Many organizations also provide secure ways for you to make your donation online.  Make sure to specify whether or not you are making an anonymous donation. You should also specify whether you are making the donation on behalf of a group. Many organizations also offer choices of where your money goes. For example, for cancer research, you could choose to donate to research or specify that it goes to families of children with cancer. Decide ahead of time where you would like to direct your funds. Many people like to claim a tax deduction when they donate to charity. You can print off forms online so that you can provide your donors with a receipt. Just make sure that you understand how to fill out the forms in case your donors have questions for you. Keep any receipts for money you personally spend on your fundraiser. These expenses might be tax deductible, too. It takes a lot of effort to effectively fund raise. Chances are, if you've raised a lot of money, then you have had a lot of help. Make sure to take the time to personally thank each member of your team. You should also try to thank each donor. Try writing thank-you notes. People love to receive something in the mail other than bills!

Find your teacher's email. Proofread your email one last time. Send the email. Be patient. Send a follow-up email if necessary.

Many people by default support the team of the area they live in. This is perhaps the simplest and easiest way to pick a team to support. The benefits of this approach is that many of your friends and family will probably also support the same time. This will make game days more fun, as you’ll be able to join everyone in tailgate parties and more. Consider the following:  Does the city you live in have a football team? If your city or town does not have a team, what big city with a team are you closest to? Support that team. If you are equal distance to two teams, pick whichever you prefer, or whichever one your friends and family support. Some people are lifelong supporters of one team. They support the team of their hometown where they grew up, and they support that team for the rest of their lives. You can go with this approach as well.  This will help you bond with family and friends who still live in that community, if you have moved. This might feel natural because you are probably familiar with the mascot, the colors, and the fan culture of the team. If you’ve moved far away, this might present a problem as you might not be able to attend many games in person. If we’re talking American college football, many people support the team of where they graduated or where they grew up. People do this for many reasons including tradition and emotionalism, but mostly because they associate their college football team with the good times they had in college. This is certainly a good way of determining what team to support. For many families, supporting a football team is tradition. Get behind that tradition and support the same team that your parents and grandparents supported. Not only will you be able to have more in common with your family, but you’ll be able to participate in football related events together, like tailgates and viewing parties.  You’ll also be able to attend games together. Some people are moved by mascots and team colors. If this is the type of person you are, take a look at the wide variety...

TL;DR in English: Choose your team based on where you currently live. Support the team of the city or region where you grew up. Get behind the football team of your alma mater. Rally behind the team your parents support. Consider the mascot or team colors. Support the underdog. Pick a team based on an individual player or coach. Cheer for the winning team.

You need one no wider than one or two inches. A paddle iron will be too wide. Start about an inch or two from the roots. Rotate your wrist toward your head, angling the iron down. Slide it an inch or two down at this angle, and rotate your wrist in the other direction, so the iron is angled up. Slide it an inch or two down at this angle, and rotate your wrist again. Repeat until you reach the end of your hair.

TL;DR in English: Select a skinny flat iron. Clamp the section of your hair you separated into the iron.

The most important tools are a pen and pencil while you bring up ideas. However, other tools can help you collect information along the way and chart progress. You will need to quantify your success on a weekly or monthly basis. For example, if you want to gain 500 more Facebook followers, you should report on the number of total and new followers each month, in addition to the posts you have used. Facebook itself has several valuable reporting tools. At the very least, you should have an Excel spreadsheet, but you may also want to sign up for a Google Analytics account, a CRM management software or a financial tracker like Mint.com.

TL;DR in English: Get organized. Decide how you will keep track of your process. Get high tech.

Send your message to the teacher's professional, school-issued email account, unless they have provided you with a personal address. Your teacher may have given you an email address in the course syllabus. If not, you'll need to track it down yourself. If you can't ask in person, and you can't find the email on the school website, try asking around. One of your friends or classmates might know. You can also ask the school secretary, other teachers, or even parents. Before actually sending your email, give it one last look-over to ensure that everything is spelled and arranged correctly. You might want someone else to look over the email for you for this step. Click your inbox's Send button to do so. Once you have sent the email, you can check the "Sent" section of your inbox to be sure that the message went through. Teachers are often busy people, and you should not expect an immediate response. If your concern is very complicated, or not very urgent, then you might be waiting for a few days. It might take your teacher longer to respond if you send your email over the weekend or during a holiday.  It's always possible that your teacher doesn't feel comfortable answering your question over email. Don't stress if your teacher doesn't respond to your email. Since there's a record of you sending the email and not receiving a response, you can use their lack of response as an excuse if need be. If you have an urgent question that you can't otherwise resolve, and you haven't received a reply within three days, you can send one follow-up email.  When following up, be brief and polite, acknowledge the first email, explain why you need to know the answer as soon as possible, and say, "I just wanted to check back with you in case you didn't get my first email!" (or something similar). Do not send more than one follow-up email.

You'll want to recalibrate your laptop's battery if your computer's battery indicator is no longer displaying the correct amount of charge. For example, if your battery indicator says you have 50 percent charge but your computer shuts down shortly after, you should recalibrate your battery. Keep your computer's charger plugged in until your battery reaches the "Fully Charged" point. Remove the charger side of the charger cable from your computer to do so. Never disconnect the wall socket side of the charger first, as plugging it back in while the charger is connected to the laptop could damage your computer. You can simply keep your computer turned on until the battery life runs out, but streaming video or running another battery-consuming process will speed up the battery draining. This will ensure that the battery's phantom charge is completely gone before proceeding. Skip this step for a lithium battery. Plug back in the computer's charger to do so. Once the battery reaches 100 percent again, it should be calibrated.

TL;DR in English: Know when to use this method. Charge the battery to 100 percent. Unplug your laptop. Run your laptop until the battery has been completely drained. Leave your laptop unplugged for another 3 to 5 hours. Begin charging the battery.

. Our activity and thoughts are positive or negative like magnets. As we avoid dealing with a problem, then it continues as it is — or gets worse. Our own negativity rules the day. But, the more we think positively, the more proactively we will act and reach goals and ways to overcome and accept positive options — and these will bring their rewards. In fact, positive thoughts can even boost your immune system! It sounds simple, but it's hard to execute sometimes. Your life may be very busy, so carve some tasks into your day that consistently make you happy. When you do something that you love, you are distracted from being sad or negative. Some positive activities that you can do are:   Listening to music. Listen to the genre you like. Reading. Reading is good for you. It can even teach you empathy. And, if you’re reading non-fiction, it can help you learn new information and perspectives on the world. Creative expression, e.g. painting, writing, origami, etc. Sports, hobbies, etc. Being with friends and family. The awe-inspiring. Studies show that the feeling of awe or wonderment you experience when you’re walking in nature, viewing a stunning painting, or listening to your favorite symphony is great for your health, both physically and mentally. Find ways to incorporate a little wonder into your life whenever you can. Appreciate the people in your life who have stood by you through thick and thin.  Enlist their support to help you become more positive, and in the process you will probably help them too. Friends help each other through both the good and bad times.

Set the oven to convection and allow it to begin warming while you clean and dress the fish. Make sure there’s plenty of room on the center rack. Keeping the temperature of the oven slightly lower will help the fish cook through consistently without falling apart. Lay each pike fillet on a sheet of aluminum foil. You can then add your herbs, spices and other ingredients of choice. When you’re done seasoning, fold the edges of the aluminum foil up around the fillets, making sure they’re completely covered.  Baking fish uncovered often causes it to come out too dry. Add a burst of flavor to baked pike with aromatics like onion, capers, diced bell peppers, and oregano, or keep things simple with a little minced garlic and a drizzle of lemon-infused butter. Transfer the aluminum-wrapped fillets to the baking sheet, leaving a little space between each. Open the oven and slide the baking sheet onto the center rack. In addition to heating the fish more effectively, the aluminum foil will also lock in moisture and help the seasonings cook into the meat itself. Set a timer to keep track of how long the fish has been in the oven. When it’s finished, it should be tender and flaky with an opaque white coloring all the way through. Let the fillets cool for a few minutes, then plate and serve.  You can test whether the fillets are done by cutting into them with a fork.  Try to avoid overcooking the fish, as this can cause it to become mushy and bland.

TL;DR in English: Preheat the oven to 375 °F (190°C). Season the fish to taste. Place the pike on a large baking sheet. Bake for 20-30 minutes.

Simply share an entry from one of your blogs with another one of your blogs - either by providing a link or copy and pasting, or both. This is a great way to get multiple audiences interested in your material.  If you have more than one blog, cross post entries from the blog you want to become popular to your most popular blog. The people who follow you on one may begin to follow you on the other. If you don't have more than one blog, consider creating another blog or two with different blogging programs - even if you end up just creating a replica of your original blog.

Since you know you have at least your class in common, that’s a great way to start getting to know each other — by talking about the work, the teacher, your classmates, etc. But over time, you want to get to know other parts of each other, too, so talk about things that have nothing to do with class, or even school. Don’t try to hard to be “cool.” What you think looks “cool” might come off as distant or condescending. It’s much easier for a girl to talk to a guy who’s just being himself — open and honest.  Smile and laugh easily — girls love guys who enjoy themselves. Face your body toward her when you’re speaking to her. Don’t be afraid to make eye contact with her when you’re talking. Once you’ve broken the ice, you want to get to know each other. Try to find out what she’s interested in. Ask what her favorite classes are, whether she does any after-school activities, and what she likes to do in her spare time.  Try to steer conversations toward topics that interest her. This will make her look forward to talking to you, since she’ll know you enjoy listening to her talk about something she loves. You want her to get to know you, too, so talk about the things that are important to you. If you just let her talk about herself all the time, then eventually, you’ll stop liking her because you’ll feel like the friendship is all about her. It’s important to maintain a balance, so you’re both sharing parts of your life with each other equally.  Be open and honest. Don’t just talk about the things you think she wants to hear about — talk about the things that are actually important to you. Use your discretion. There are some things that you shouldn’t talk about with someone you don’t know very well, so start with topics that are harmless and light. Try to keep a balance between how much you talk and how much she talks. The best way to spend time with someone is to have friends in common with her. Hanging out in a group with mutual friends will be less nerve-wracking than talking to each other one-on-one, and you’ll...
