Use a butter knife or similar tool, like popsicle sticks or a spatula. Add just enough wax to lightly cover the target area. As you do, spread the wax down in the direction that your hair grows. For example, with your calf, spread it from your knee down to your ankle, not the other way.  With each application, apply it in a fast, clean motion in order to spread it as thinly as possible. Dragging it too slowly over your skin may result in thicker deposits, which will be tougher to remove. This may take some practice, so consider making an extra batch just in case you mess up. Use cotton muslin strips of an appropriate size for the area you’re waxing, or slightly larger. Set it over the wax, with at least a couple inches (about 5 cm) remaining clear of the wax at one end, so you have a tab that’s easy to pull. Then gently rub the portion that’s stuck to the wax in the same direction that your hair grows, without pressing directly down into your flesh. Do this two or three times.   Alternately, you can cut up an old t-shirt or other cloth and use strips of that. If you do, just make sure the material isn’t too stretchy. You want something nice and firm for easy removal. The free end should be in the direction of your hair growth. For example, with your calf, it should be pointing toward your ankle, not your knee. With one hand, use your fingers to pull the surrounding skin away from the fabric, so it’s nice and taut. Then, with the other, take the fabric’s free end in between your fingertips. Quickly pull the fabric free of your skin in the opposite direction that your hair grows.   For example, with your calf, you should pull the strip up toward your knee. As you do, try to keep as straight as possible. Avoid pulling it off at an angle that’s different from the one in which it was applied. Tear it off like a bandaid, in one quick, clean motion. Apply more wax and strips as needed to wax all of the intended area. Depending on how large an area you’re waxing, reheat the mixture if it cools off or hardens to the...

TL;DR in English: Spread the wax. Apply your fabric. Strip the fabric from your skin. Repeat if necessary, then clean up.

It takes about an hour to make, mostly unattended. Reserve about 1/4 cup port. This will be used near the end. These will go in near the end. Do not boil. Stir every 10 minutes or so.  When the sauce has reduced down far enough so it's starting to get thick (about 1 hour), strain the solids from the sauce with a sieve and return the liquid to the saucepan. Add the remaining port, and continue reducing until the sauce is thick and syrupy. If you still have a while until dinner, you can either remove the sauce from the heat, or add more port if you like. About 10 minutes before serving, add in the reserved blueberries. Options. You can add other flavors to the reduction sauce, too. Some flavors that go well with this sauce include black peppercorns, rosemary, or chocolate. Experiment!

TL;DR in English: Do this as the salmon marinates. Fill medium saucepan with port. Add all but 2 tablespoons of blueberries. Bring to a simmer. Serve over the grilled salmon.

Online conversations are becoming more and more an essential part of the daily experience including all forms of education. Your words represent who you are and your personal brand, so putting your best foot forward is important. If you don’t have the benefit of a face-to-face conversation, your image is formed by crafting online communication. Be mindful that the tone of your texts and emails can get lost. Conversations in e-form are one-dimensional and can be misunderstood. You don’t have the benefit of seeing a person face-to-face to observe the body language, voice tone, and emotion of a conversation.  Be polite in your choice of words. Refrain from using all capital letters throughout the text or email. This will be perceived as yelling. Use emoticons, a small facial icon portraying an emotion, to clarify the emotional intent of your comments and conversations. For example, always include a greeting such as, “Dear _____, I was excited to see your email today and thought I would reach out.”  Sign off of by saying, “Thank you for allowing me to explain my situation. I look forward to your reply. Respectfully submitted, _____.” If you have a question, quickly get to asking it. Depending on the recipient, you may only have a few seconds to hook the person’s attention. Treat others as you would like to be treated. Even if you need to express a conflict or dissatisfaction you can maintain a professional demeanor. For example, “Dear ____, It has come to my attention that there has been an error made by your company. I am contacting you today to resolve the matter and hope that the issue can be settled without taking further action.” Whether you spend an hour per day or per month online, everyone has an online reputation. The power of positive actions and the devastating consequences of an online fail can change your circumstances in a heartbeat. Each comment you make on social media is either the potential start of a conversation, or a response that can further the conversation. For example, you can say, “I...

TL;DR in English: Create and respond to emails as if they represent you. Convey a proper tone in texts and emails. Begin and end online communications in a personable, professional manner. Be clear and to the point. Be friendly. Show discretion when having social media conversations. Make your point without being abrasive. Refrain from antagonizing the community. Don’t respond to conversations that will upset you or drag you further into negativity. Use texting to converse with others. Practice common courtesy when texting. Stay connected with family.

Blend the peel and fruit together along with honey as a binding agent to produce a mask. Pears contain arbutin – a naturally occurring form of hydroquinone, which has been proven to be an effective tyrosinase inhibitor. Tyrosinase is an enzyme that helps to produce melanin, the pigment that darkens skin, so inhibiting will produce a skin-whitening effect.  Be sure to include the peel, which contains much higher concentrations of arbutin than the fruit.  Asian pears (pyrus pyrifoli) contain much more arbutin than American or European varieties.  The best varieties to use are Yaquang, Hongpi, Quingpi, or Guifei.  Be aware that arbutin has been reported to cause skin irritation for some people. If you develop skin irritation, stop using pear-based masks. Blend half a pomegranate, 2 teaspoons of almond oil, and ½ a tablespoon of honey to make a pomegranate mask. Pomegranate fruit contains punicalagins – compounds that have been shown to directly inhibit melanin production. Blend four slice of pineapple in a food processor along with a half a tablespoon of honey. Pineapple fruit contains compounds that act as tyrosinase inhibitors, thereby whitening skin. Compounds in fig fruit have been shown to decrease melanin and moisturize skin. Mash the fruit and apply in a mask.

TL;DR in English: Use Asian pears in your mask. Make a mask with pomegranate fruit. Use pineapple to make a mask. Make a facial mask using figs.

Invite them during a time you might see them anyway. Maybe you share a scheduled activity together? Otherwise, schedule an activity or meet up with them as is convenient. The more time they have, the more receptive they'll be to your approach. Don't invite guests in a way that makes them feel they have to say yes. Your party should be fun and totally accommodating. If they can't make it, they should feel a little disappointed -- not guilty! For example, instead of saying "You're coming to my party next weekend, right?", say something like "Hey *guest's name*, I'm having a party next weekend. I'd love it if you could come!" Much like with a phone invitation, it is easy to forget details in the heat of a personal conversation/invitation. Make sure to cover where and when it is, what the occasion is, and if they need to bring anything.  To avoid guests forgetting information, you can hand out a physical invitation as well. This doesn't have to be a tried-and-true invite so much as a reminder. Short of that, you can offer to write information down or text it to their phone, etc. You can raise interest for your party with an in-person invitation. This can be especially effective in a group setting. The more excited you are about it and the more you can build it up with detail, the less they'll be likely to forget and the more likely they are to feed off your excitement and get excited, too.  Describe what your party will be like, and how excited you are. You can say something like "I'm really looking forward to it; it's going to be great!" You can also use tone and body language in a personal conversation for added effect. If you don’t have the party’s details nailed down, open them up for suggestions by your guests. Guests are much more likely to come if they had a hand in the creation of your party. Be discreet when you're doling out your in-person invitations. Make sure only the people you want invited are hearing the discussion. If it's an issue, tell them that you can only have so many people at the party....

TL;DR in English: Approach your guests at a convenient time. Leave guests a way out. Make sure to give them all the necessary information. Chat up your guests. Be aware that you may offend people you didn’t invite who overhear your invitations to others.

Literature tests can be in wildly different formats depending on the class and the instructor; they are very different from math or spelling tests. If your professor or teacher gives you the format of the test, make sure that you understand what each component of the test entails. This understanding will aid you in the study process. Here are some common literature exam components:  Definitions of literary terms or phrases Quote identifications, where you are given the quote and need to explain who said it in what context in what literary work by which author. Passage analysis Short answer questions Essay questions, either on one work or linking together multiple works If your class focuses on literary terms, such as “symbol” or “anaphora” or “free indirect discourse,” make sure that you can not only define the literary term but also provide examples of it from texts in your class. Quiz yourself with these flashcards and look for more examples of them in your assigned texts. If you have taken good class notes, rereading through your notes will refresh your memory about the important points made during class. Take note of the important ideas presented in the class, such as “coming of age” or “man vs. nature.” The ideas that stand out in your notes could potentially appear on the exam. Make a condensed study guide, pulling together the most important ideas from your notes. Use the “read-recite-review” method --read over your notes, recite what you remember from them, and then review and assess how much you retained. Understanding all of the material for a literature exam is crucial, so now is the time to look back on that confusing passage of Faulkner that you didn’t understand in class. If there’s a passage analysis on one of these confusing sections, you will be happy that you reviewed it! If your exam requires an essay, you should look through your notes and texts for potential essay topics, such as dreams, motherhood, or nature. Take note of these for potential exam questions that ask you to talk about...

TL;DR in English: Know the format of your test. Make flashcards of important literary terms and words. Reread your class notes. Reread confusing parts of assigned texts. Look at symbols and themes. Utilize your study group.

Intentionally leave one of your pieces unprotected, or at least make it appear unprotected, to trick your opponent into making a rash move. Baiting is the one of the most basic strategies in chess, but also one of the most consistently successful. The "Legal Trap," for instance, involves sacrificing one's queen in order to place the opponent's king in checkmate with minor pieces.   Many of the most complex strategies and sequences in chess are sophisticated forms of baiting.  Make sure you’ve played out every possible follow up move in your head before putting one of your pieces at risk. Even if your opponent has more pieces on the board, you can neutralize their advantage by getting your strongest pieces into clear, well-guarded positions. A good example of this type of placement is to set up one of your rooks at the "7th rank" (one row before the end of your opponent's side of the board). From there, the rook is able to keep the enemy king from escaping, all while picking off your opponent's minor pieces and being free to advance or retreat as needed.  The "Blockade" is another fundamental defensive play that relies on cunning placement rather than capture or evasion. Setting up a blockade is as simple as blocking the path of your opponent's pieces so that they can't advance. While the opponent struggles to get around the blockade without losing valuable pieces, you can use your dominant position to lure them into danger, or escape danger yourself.  Superior positioning can discourage your opponent from following through with their plans and force them to play the game you set for them. If you’re careful and don’t leave any obvious openings, you may psyche your opponent out and put them on the defensive.  Controlling the board is often preferable to simply having more pieces. It’s not enough to simply move one piece, with no thought to the consequences it could have multiple turns down the line. Winning strategies require forethought, and are often devised half a dozen moves or more in advance. Do your best...

TL;DR in English: Bait your opponent by a leaving a piece unprotected. Intimidate your opponent with superior positioning. Think several moves ahead. Examine the entire board. Be patient.

If your toilet already has a caulk seal around the base, you’ll want to remove it rather than apply caulk directly over it. You can find dedicated caulk removal tools in home improvement stores. Run this tool along the joint between the toilet and the floor to scrape out any old caulk.  If you don’t have a caulk removal tool handy, you can also use a utility or razor knife to loosen the caulk at one end. Aim to pull it up in 1 long strip. You can make an old caulking job easier to clean up by applying commercial caulk removers before scraping. If you do, make sure to check the product’s label to prevent any possible damage to your floors or toilet. After clearing the joint of any caulk, you’ll want to get the area as clean as possible. Scoop out any debris, such as paint chips, dirt or rust. Use a general purpose bathroom cleaner and a rag to clean in and around the joint. The cleaner you can get the area, the better of a seal you’ll be able to apply. After cleaning, you can wipe the area with rubbing alcohol to disinfect it.  Press a tissue around the base of the toilet to check for moisture. If you find a leak, remove the toilet and replace the wax ring before continuing. If any water or other liquid gets in the joint, do your best to dry it. If you can’t quite reach it, make sure to allow enough time for it to dry properly. Overnight should be sufficient. Caulking over liquid will trap it, which can cause damage to your flooring. Ensure the toilet is even and tight to the floor. If it moves, tighten the bolts or use a shim to straighten it out. Don’t use the caulk to secure the toilet to the floor if it’s loose or uneven. Not only will this help you get a straighter, smoother seal, but it will prevent any caulk from getting on your floors. Put masking tape on either side of the joint, one following the toilet’s base and the other along the floor. If you’re particularly worried about your caulking abilities, you can use a second strip on either side to double the width of masking tape and protect more of...

You can get a bottle for your project at almost any store which sells cleaning supplies. You can use either a spray bottle or a squeeze bottle. A squeeze bottle may produce a slightly more precise effect than a spray bottle, but the results will be similar with either one. Spray or squeeze the bleach mixture from your bottle onto your garment. You can vary the amount of bleach that you use depending on how intense you want the color change to be. A heavier application of bleach will cause the fabric to lighten more, and you can create different looks by applying the bleach only to some areas and not to others. You should be able to see the bleach changing the color of the garment within about 2 minutes, but it will take 8-10 minutes for the bleach to really seep into the fabric. If you leave it on much longer the bleach could damage your garment. Remove all the rubber bands. You want to wash your garment right away to stop the chemical bleaching process. You can either put your clothing in the washing machine with a mild detergent or you can hand wash it in your sink or bathtub.  If you hand wash your garment, make sure to leave on your gloves until you’ve finished rinsing it so you don’t come into contact with any bleach. Have your bathtub rinsed well if you washed in it. Once your garment is thoroughly rinsed, you can either air-dry it or put it in the dryer, depending on how you normally prefer to dry your clothes. After it’s dry, it’s ready to wear, so put it on and enjoy your new style!

TL;DR in English: Fill a spray or squeeze bottle with a mixture of 1/2 bleach and 1/2 water. Apply the bleach mixture to the exposed fabric of the garment. Allow the bleach to sit on the fabric for 8-10 minutes. Wash the garment in a mild detergent when the time is up. Hang your garment to air-dry or place it in the dryer.

Several weeks before attempting to move your baby into their crib, introduce set cues and habits that will let your baby know when bedtime has come.  A set routine will help your baby know that it's bedtime, regardless of where they are sleeping. You can vary the routine as desired, making it as short or long as you need in order to help baby wind down. The elements you introduce into your routine should all be of a calming nature, however. Beginning the process before moving your baby to their crib will help your baby to associate the new routine with bedtime. As a result, your baby will still know that it's time for sleep even when one aspect of the routine—sleeping in your room—ceases. Be consistent. The only way to establish certain actions as a routine is to do them every night. If you skip some nights, you might give your baby mixed signals. Even if you have no pre-set cues that tell your baby when it's time to go to sleep, there might be signs and signals you unknowingly give to your baby that indicate the arrival of bedtime. Analyze your bedtime habits and determine if there are any habits you have established for your child. If there are, continue these habits as much as possible. Try giving your baby 2 or 3 ounces (60 or 90 ml) of formula or breast milk before going to bed. For babies over six months of age, you could also try giving them 1 or 2 tablespoons (15 or 30 ml) of cereal before bed. Stuffing your baby with too much food will only cause discomfort, but giving them a little before bed may help your baby feel more comfortable and last a little longer into the night before waking up.    A short, warm bath can help soothe your baby, easing them into sleep.  Note, however, that some babies will feel invigorated when given a bath. If yours falls under this category, then you should do the bath earlier in the day rather than making it part of your bedtime routine. Follow the bath by wrapping your baby in a warm towel or blanket. Holding your child close will also add an extra level of warmth and...

Search for inspiration before you shop. Use colors that complement your existing decor for a cohesive look. Make a statement with a sofa in a bold color or pattern. Choose a neutral sofa to match any room. Match the color to outdoor scenery to liven up the room.

If you like journaling or keeping lists, spend a few minutes at the end of each day reflecting over what went well, how you felt, and anything that was upsetting. If you aren’t a fan of writing things down, take a couple of minutes to sit quietly and think about your day. Ask yourself these types of questions:  What made me happiest today? What are the positives in my life? What am I putting off or procrastinating? If I had time, what would I like to be doing? Is there negativity I can remove from my life? Instead of focusing on the things you don’t have, choose to focus on what you do have. Commit to finding the good in every day; you could even try keeping a “joy list” where you write down things that happen during the day that make you joyful.  Take time to do things that bring you joy, too, like listening to music, dancing, cooking, reading, or going to a yoga class. Make these things a priority so your week is infused with joy-giving activities. Similarly, taking time to laugh every day can boost your emotional health. Surround yourself with people who make you laugh or try watching a funny movie or stand-up comedian to give yourself some much-needed laughter-therapy. A boundary can be between you and another person, or it can be set up to protect your time so you can take care of yourself. Here are some common ways you can set up healthy boundaries in your life:  Manage work stress by checking your email twice a day rather than getting a constant influx of notifications. Turn off your phone when you’re with loved ones so you aren’t distracted from what’s happening in the present. Distance yourself from someone who is emotionally needy and who takes advantage of you. Tell friends to text or call before they come over rather than just popping in. When someone asks you to do something, take a minute to check in with your gut and your calendar to see if it’s a reasonable thing for you to agree to. If it isn’t, say something like, “Thanks for asking, but I’m going to have to pass this time,” or “I wish I...

TL;DR in English: Take time to check in with yourself every day. Incorporate more joy into your life to increase your sense of well-being. Set boundaries for your time and space so you can take care of yourself. Learn to say “no” so you don’t overcommit your time. Reduce the amount of stress in your life so you can enjoy things more. Connect with friends regularly to build a strong support network. Challenge yourself to learn something new to keep your brain happy. Talk to yourself in a kind way to encourage a positive outlook. Unplug from your electronics to lower stress and practice mindfulness. Seek professional help if your health is interfering with your life.

Purchase a commercial cleaner, such as Goof Off Stain Remover, to finish the job. Look for specific caulk removers. Follow all instructions and warnings supplied by the manufacturer to ensure proper cleaning. Warning: Always pretest new cleaners on old clothing before applying it to important or favorite garments. Antibacterial sanitizing products can remove some stains from clothing, and they may be effective on caulk. First, squeeze the sanitizer onto the stained area. Rub the spot gently with a tissue or a damp rag. You may need to use several applications of sanitizer if the stain is especially bad. Wet the stain with water. Pour baking soda onto the fabric while it's still wet. Massage the baking soda into the fabric with a rag or towel until the caulk comes out. If the stain does not come out completely, keep trying. Put the clothing in the wash afterward, and results will improve even more.

TL;DR in English: Use a chemical cleaner. Try using hand sanitizer. Rub with baking soda.

There are many products available that can remove blood stains. Some of these products are simple household products that you may already have in your bathroom cabinet or pantry. This section will show you how to use these products. Keep in mind, however, that some stains may have permanently set into the fabric, and you may still have some slight residue. Simply sprinkle some salt over the stain and let it sit for a few minutes, then gently scrub it with your finger or an old toothbrush. Rinse the stain well with cold water. If you don't have any salt on hand, but you happen to wear contacts, try using some of the saline solution you use for your contacts. Crumble a few aspirin pills in a small dish and mix them with just enough cold water to create a paste. Spread the paste over the stain and let it sit for 30 minutes or overnight before rinsing it off. Sprinkle some baking soda into a small dish and add in a few drops of cold water. Mix until you get a paste, then spread the paste over the stain. Wait 30 minutes or let it sit overnight before rinsing the garment off with cool water. Simply pour some hydrogen peroxide (the same kind that comes in a brown bottle and that you can find in the first aid section of a drug store) or lemon juice over the stain. Let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse it out using water. Be sure to scrub the stain with you finger or an old toothbrush. Both hydrogen peroxide and lemon juice can lighten fabric, so they are not recommended for bright or dark-colored garments. Simply pour some white vinegar over the stain and let it sit for five to ten minutes before rinsing it out. Simply spray or pour the stain remover onto the fabric and leave it on for the amount of time recommended by the manufacturer; this is usually around five to 20 minutes. These types of detergents are great at breaking down proteins, which is what blood is made out of.

TL;DR in English: Know what you can use. Try using some salt. Make a paste using water and aspirin. Make a paste using water and baking soda. Try treating lighter colored fabrics with hydrogen peroxide or lemon juice. Try using some vinegar. Keep commercial stain removers in mind. Consider using an enzyme-based detergent.

This can range anywhere from 25 to 60 minutes, depending on the brand and type of dye that you are using. Do not go over the time recommended on the package, especially if you are lightening it.  Letting blonde dye sit in your hair longer than the recommended time won't make it lighter; it will only damage it. Pull all of your hair up into a loose bun, then cover it with a shower cap. This will help keep your surroundings clean. Do not use any shampoo. Just rinse your hair with cool to lukewarm water until the water runs clear. Next, apply some conditioner to your hair. Let it sit for 2 to 3 minutes, then rinse it out using cool or lukewarm water. Make sure that the conditioner is sulfate-free or formulated for dyed hair. You can also use the conditioner that came with your dye kit. If possible, allow your hair to air dry. If you can't do that, use a hairdryer on a low-heat setting. Some people find that letting their hair air dry partway first, then blow drying it the rest of the way works best. if it came out brassy or yellow. Get your hair wet, then apply a purple toning shampoo to it. Let the shampoo sit in your hair for the time recommended on the bottle, typically 5 to 15 minutes, then rinse it out with cool water. Dry your hair as usual.  If you added packets of hair toner into blonde hair dye, you probably won't run into this problem. It would be a good idea to wear plastic gloves for this step. Purple shampoo has a small amount of dye in it, and it can stain your hands. This is very important because your hair is still porous at this stage. If you wash it too soon, then the dye may come out or fade. Give your hair 72 hours so that the cuticles can close and absorb the hair dye.  Make sure that you use shampoo and conditioner made for dyed hair. If you can't find any, use sulfate-free shampoo and conditioner. Afterward, be sure to take proper care of your dyed hair to make the color last longer.

TL;DR in English: Let the dye sit in your hair for the time recommended on the package. Rinse the dye with cool water, then follow-up with conditioner. Dry and style your hair as desired. Tone your hair Wait 72 hours before washing your hair with shampoo.

Pick up a few interior design magazines like Home Decor and Country Living to help get you started. These magazines will not only give you some helpful hints on choosing colors but will also be full of pictures of professionally designed rooms that can give you a clear idea of what you want. You can also search online on sites like HGTV or Pinterest for some insight and inspiration. You can also visit furniture stores and home decor shops to see what's in season and on trend. An easy way to choose a color for a sofa is to base it off other colors already in the room. Using complementary colors on the color wheel will guarantee a match and take out some of the guesswork in trying to find the perfect sofa shade.  For example, if you have a lot of orange in the room via lamps, rugs, or paintings, then a couch which has a blue hue would be a great addition. Or, if you have a large violet-colored tapestry, try a chartreuse or green sofa. You could also choose colors in the same family as your existing decor. if you have cool-colored wood floors, try a cool-colored couch. A black sofa would look great with gray flooring. If you're working with a new or empty room, you may want to pick a sofa in a neutral color so you can easily build off of it when decorating the rest of the space. As a sofa is usually the centerpiece of a room, try making it stand out. Pick bold jewel-tones like jade, ruby, and sapphire or a contrasting color to make the sofa pop. For example, if you have bright white carpet, pick a dark gray sofa or something black. You can also pick large patterns like floral prints or chevron stripes to bring the sofa into the forefront. Be mindful if choosing a particular pattern, though. Different fabrics can cause a sofa to cost more in the long run. A sofa in a neutral color like cream, gray, or navy will look great in any room. You can also easily change the look of your sofa by adding throws or pillows. For instance, you could jazz up a gray sofa with a red blanket and a few pillows with a red and white...

TL;DR in English:


Maybe it has been so long since you've really cared about something that it feels like you've lost the ability. But no matter how deep your feelings of caring are buried, they're in there somewhere, and it's time to uncover them. To care is to "feel concern or interest; attach importance to something," to "feel affection or liking." By that definition, who and what do you care about? Make a list of anything that causes you to feel interest, concern, or attachment of any kind.  Write down the names of people you feel attachment to—parents, siblings, friends, and anyone else who has a pull on your heart. If you think about the person often, and you'd miss them if they weren't there, you probably care about them. You don't have to love or even like them to care. By the same measure, write down things besides people you care about. Don't write down the things you should care about, just the things you actually do. Maybe your life is better because you play soccer, or you can't imagine a world without Warcraft. Maybe you care about poetry, or you love a certain movie star. There's no limit to how long your list can be—write it all down, big and small. Be honest with yourself as you make your list, and don't leave anything out. Maybe you've been conditioned to act like you're "above it all," or to hide the things that make you tick. People will try to tell you what you should and shouldn't care about, but you'll have to learn to ignore them for the sake of your own happiness. And in most cases, sticking to your guns and expressing that you care will eventually win you others' admiration. Still aren't sure what matters to you? Take a look at what you do with your time once all your obligations have been fulfilled. When your homework is complete, the workday is over and the chores are done, what do you usually do? The way you spend your free time can be quite telling. You probably use it to do something you care about.  Do you spend your free time calling someone for a long chat, texting your friends, or writing...

TL;DR in English: Make a list of things that interest you. Look at how you spend your free time. Pay attention to what you think about as you're falling asleep. See what piques your interest. Figure out what tugs on your heartstrings.

As part of your ADHD, there may be situations where you are impulsive and say or do the wrong thing. You don't give yourself enough time to think before you speak or act. For example, you tell your boss that an idea he has about sales projections is way off or you may buy yourself a new outfit when you really can't afford it, just because you had to have it.  Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, take a deep breath and think to yourself, "Let me think about this." before you answer someone. Also try putting your finger over your mouth in a thoughtful pose before you speak to give yourself time to think about your answer. You can also talk more slowly, which will give your brain time to process the information before you speak. Also, before you make a decision that involved money or other important things, think about what you are doing and if it is possible or wise to do it.  To help stop yourself from buying something when you're not sure you should, ask yourself a few questions. Before you reach for your wallet, ask yourself if you have the money to buy it, need to items you are about to buy, and if you would feel bad telling someone else that you are buying the items. This will help you think through all of your purchases before you make them. Adults with ADHD have trouble using nonverbal working memory, which means it is hard for them to draw on past experiences to guide their current actions. This means it is often hard for adults with ADHD to change the outcome of a situations they've experienced in the past because they always respond the same way. To help with this problem, take time to think about the decision you are about to make and think about all the times you've faced a similar problem in the past. To help do this, mentally visualize your past experiences by bringing up a video screen in your mind and play back the memory of the last time you had the same or a similar decision to make. Learn from your past mistakes and try to get to a different outcome. Many adults with...

TL;DR in English: Give yourself time to think. Think about the past to help with the future. Visualize the end goal. Own up to your mistakes. Do tasks as soon as possible. Find an ADHD coach. Exercise. Eat better. Give your brain a break.

Don’t just think of depression as “feeling down.” Instead, stress that depression is a treatable, medical condition. Hearing this from someone she trusts can help empower your girlfriend to get help.  If you don't know whether your girlfriend's depression is episodic or chronic, encourage her to see a doctor so she can get the kind of care she needs. Remind her to separate herself from the depression. For example, if she says things like “I”m depressed.” Help her reframe it by saying, “No, Cindy, you are someone who has depression. You are a kind, beautiful person who feels and experiences depression.” Even if your girlfriend wants to get help for long-term or serious depression, her condition can make actually doing so difficult. There are many ways that you can help her connect to therapy and other kinds of help. For instance:  Offer to help her research different kinds of counseling, therapy, and medical treatments. Listen to her thoughts, concerns, and questions about these treatments. Offer to go with her to the doctor or counseling sessions. If she is working with a therapist she doesn’t seem to connect with, encourage her to find a new one. Once your girlfriend begins treatment for long-term depression, it’s crucial that she sticks with it. Since you’re in a relationship with her, you’re in a position to help hold her accountable. Try things like:  Creating a schedule to make sure she takes any medications her doctor prescribed. Offer to give reminders about when to take it, or to ask her if she did. Mark therapy appointments on a common calendar. Continue to ask her how she feels. Resist the urge to be her sole source of social support, which can create an unhealthy relationship dynamic. Not only that, it's unfair for both of you. Instead, help her seek out groups that can help her connect with others who've shared a similar experience. Check out NAMI.org, Mental Health America, or the Depression and Bipolar Support Alliance at http://www.dbsalliance.org/. Each of these resources has listings of...

TL;DR in English: Encourage her to think of depression as a medical issue. Help her seek counseling or therapy. Help her stay accountable for treatment. Encourage her to participate in support groups. Offer to try Behavioral Couple Therapy (BCT). Recognize the signs of a serious problem.

Get the kind of lip gloss that comes with a wand applicator. Do not use the kind that you have to squeeze to get out. Set the wand applicator aside, preferably on a plate so that your table won't get sticky. Both cinnamon essential oil and peppermint essential oil have lip-plumping abilities. They help improve blood circulation to your lips. This may help make your lips appear fuller. Cinnamon oil can be irritating. Consider mixing a drop or two with some oil (such as olive oil) and dabbing it on your inner elbow. If it doesn't irritate your skin, you're good to go. You can also pump the wand applicator up and down in the tube a few times to mix the oil into the lip gloss.

TL;DR in English: Find a tube of lip gloss. Open up the tube of lip gloss. Add 1 to 2 drops of cinnamon or peppermint essential oil. Close the tube and shake it to combine.

Place a Dutch oven over a high heat and add a splash of cooking oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add in your round steak and sear it on all sides until golden brown.

Clean your mouth. Get plenty of rest. Avoid beverages other than water. Eat soft foods. Avoid smoking for as long as possible.

As your trainee progresses in their training, allow them to take the lead on certain tasks and projects. Start by having them take care of the daily routine without your help. Then, when you feel comfortable with their ability to handle the day-to-day, allow them to take lead on a particular project or project component.  There is no set time frame for when any one trainee should be taking lead on anything. Look at what your training schedule will allow. If you have a few weeks to work with your trainee, you may want to focus the last week on getting them independent. If you only have a few days, this may need to happen faster. Allowing them to take lead should mean that you are removing yourself from the process. Offer to assist your trainee if they want or need it, but otherwise leave it to them to perform the job functions. As you transition your position to your trainee, introduce them to other people who may be of help in completing their job. Look at those coworkers with whom you have worked in your position, and introduce your employee, explaining how, specifically, they may work with this person in the future.  Make sure your trainee has the phone numbers, email addresses and any other contact information they may need to get in touch with these new contacts on their own. If possible, try to arrange coffee or lunch so that your trainee can really get to know the person and their job functions, rather than just stopping by their desk. At some point before your trainee is completely on their own, you should schedule to stop performing your current job functions. If you are able, you may want to turn your attention toward your new position. Let your trainee take over the position while you still have training time with them so you are there in case they need help.  Let your trainee know well in advance when you plan to have them fully assume the position. Explain to them, “I will be there if you need help or if something comes up that we haven’t covered yet, but otherwise you are going to be taking on...

TL;DR in English: Let your trainee take the lead. Build their relationships within the company. Stop working. Perform a final review. Leave the position.

Tell anyone to check your videos out. Also subscribe and send friend requests to a bunch of people on YouTube. Make sure you respect all of your subscribers and answer their comments. You can also use social media sites  to grow your fanbase such Twitter, Reddit, Facebook and Google Plus. Once you get a decent amount of views, make and add more content on a regular basis. Make videos focused on you, your friends, pranks, randomness, etc. Or keep building on your original storyline, such as the adventures of your puppy, the learning curve you experience cooking healthy food or the challenges you've set yourself to learn something new. It can take a while to build up popularity and it really is a waiting game. If you think too hard about being popular, it can do your head in and you may give up. Instead, keep persevering, adding quality material and expect more interest in about six to twelve months time. Of course, after a year has passed, if you're not well known despite doing all you can, you need to reassess what you're doing.

TL;DR in English: Tell all your friends and family. Don't leave your fans hanging. Be persistent and patient.

Look for the next upcoming game and make sure the team is playing at home, at the Santiago Bernabéau Stadium, by checking the order of the team names listed. If Real Madrid Fútbol Club's name comes first, that means it's a home game. If their name is listed second, then it's an away game.  For example, if you see “Real Madrid CF – Sevilla FC,” you'll know it's a home game. Generally, games are scheduled on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. Last-minute tickets are generally available from this window, starting from the day before the match and going up until the morning of the match. As you approach the stadium, you'll be able to see the numbered windows for the box offices.  Window #44 is located in Torre (Tower) A in the stadium. This window is usually open from Monday to Sunday, 9 am to 7 pm. This is good option for smaller games. Oftentimes, they'll have some tickets available, but seating options may be limited for families and groups. For games against more famous teams, such as Barcelona or Celta- Vigo, you probably won't be able to find any tickets at the last minute.  For example, tickets to El Clásico are extremely hard to come by, especially so close to the game. To ask “Are there any tickets left for tomorrow's game?” in Spanish, you would say “¿Hay entradas para el juego de mañana?” To ask “Are there any tickets left for today's game?” in Spanish, you would say “¿Hay entradas para el juego de hoy?” If there are any tickets left, select your seats and confirm the price. Pay for your tickets in euros and take them with you to get into the game.

TL;DR in English: Check the team's schedule online to confirm the date and kick-off time. Go to the Real Madrid stadium ticket window #44 before the match. Ask a salesperson if there are any tickets available. Purchase your tickets at the window and take them with you.

You do not need to prune the tree since the harvesting process will take care of that. You'll know when the tree is ready for harvesting when the bark turns brown and the leaves grow firm. Choose 4 to 6 straight, healthy-looking stems, then use a fine-toothed saw to cut them down until they are 1.5 to 2.5 inches (3.8 to 6.4 cm) long. Make sure the cuts at 30-degree angles, slanting towards the middle/inside of the tree. It would be even better to do so during the rainy season as the bark will be easier to peel away. Something between 3 and 4 inches (7.6 and 10.2 cm) would be ideal. Use a sharp knife to slice the bark apart lengthwise (from top-to-bottom) on each mini shoot. If the harvested stem was older, you may have to cut a little into the wood. Use your fingers or a knife to pry the bark away from the wood. Once you have the bark peeled off, set it out in a shady area for about 4 to 5 days so that it can dry out. The bark will start to curl up naturally on its own after you peel it. This is your cinnamon stick! like many other spices, cinnamon can last a long time. This means that your original batch of harvested cinnamon should last you until the next harvest. You can harvest 4 to 6 stems every 2 years.  If this is an indoor tree, you can cut the stems shorter if they are growing too long. Left to itself, a cinnamon tree can grow up to 8 feet (2.4 m). Don’t harvest the same stems each time.

TL;DR in English: Wait until the tree is 2 years old before you harvest it. Cut 4 to 6 stems to the ground between late spring and late summer. Cut the shoots into shorter lengths, then score the bark. Peel the bark off of the mini shoots, then set it out to dry. Wait 2 years before harvesting the cinnamon again.

Genital warts may disappear on their own without treatment. If your genital warts are not painful, consider leaving them to heal without treatment. About 30% of genital warts will regress (go away) within the first 4 months after infection, even without treatment.  If you decide to not treat your warts, you can leave them to heal as long as they're not causing you any discomfort.  Be aware that even if you decide to leave the warts to heal on their own, that you can still infect others with warts and are more likely to get other diseases.  If you choose to not treat your genital warts, they are also more likely to recur. They may also be hard to keep clean.  HPV can cause cancer, including cancer of the vulva, vagina, penis, or anus. Because of this, it's a good idea to have a doctor monitor your condition. If your doctor diagnoses you with genital warts, she will likely prescribe you a treatment that you apply directly to your skin. It's important to use a prescribed medication for genital warts and not an over-the-counter remedy.  Your doctor may prescribe imiquimod, podophyllin, or podofilox or to treat the lesion.  A prescription ointment using sinecatechins (green tea extract) may be prescribed for external and anal warts.  You apply these treatments to the affected areas as prescribed by your doctor. Be aware that these treatments can cause skin sensitivity and weaken condoms or diaphragms.  Your doctor may also apply trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to your genital warts. This treatment requires frequent visits to your doctor.  Your sexual partner(s) also require treatment if they have symptoms of genital warts. This will keep you and your partner(s) from passing the disease back and forth between one another.  Do not use over-the-counter wart treatments on genital warts. These medications aren't intended for delicate genital tissues and can increase any discomfort you have. In some cases, you may need surgery to remove large warts or warts that don't respond to medication. There are several different...

TL;DR in English: Leave your genital warts to heal without treatment. Get medical treatment for genital warts. Undergo surgery to treat genital warts. Avoid sexual activity or practice safe sex. Prevent warts from spreading. Relieve pain and discomfort caused by warts. See doctor if your symptoms persist after treatment. Wear clean, loose, natural fiber underwear. Stay in touch with your OB/GYN if you are pregnant and have genital warts.

Since your mouth may have stitches or an open wound, it requires special cleaning for the first few days. Do not brush your teeth, floss, or use mouthwash, or rinse your mouth out in any way for 24 hours. After that, follow this routine:  If you have stitches and the gum covers the extraction site completely, then you can start brushing your teeth gently after 12 hours. Just make sure that you avoid the extraction area. Rinse your mouth gently, without too much pressure, with saltwater every two hours and after every meal. Brush your teeth gently, being careful not to touch the wound. Floss your teeth carefully without going near the wound. Let your body's energy focus on healing, rather than other activities. In the first few days after getting surgery your mouth may be swollen and painful, so it shouldn't be difficult to take a few days off of work and school to allow yourself to rest.  Don't do a lot of talking. Let your mouth be still as the sockets begin to form a scab and the swelling goes down. Don't do unnecessary exercise. Lie or sit on your sofa for the first 24 hours, then do light walking for the next few days. Avoid touching the area of the extraction and also try not to sleep on that side for two to three days. Drink plenty of cool water after the surgery, but stay away from beverages that might interfere with the healing process. That means avoiding the following drinks:  Coffee, soda, and other drinks that contain caffeine. Wine, beer, liquor, and other drinks that contain alcohol. Soda, diet soda, and other drinks that are carbonated. Hot tea, hot water, and other drinks that are warm or hot, since these can loosen the scab that is forming over the socket. Don't use a straw when drinking liquids. The sucking motion puts stress on the wound, and can cause the scab not to form. Chewing tough foods is a sure way to break up the scab that is protecting your fragile nerves from exposure. Eat mashed potatoes, soup, applesauce, yogurt, and other soft food for the first couple of days. Graduate to...

It allows the user to sight up targets in low- or no-light situations. The problem with any night sights used in nearing dusk, or early morning, when there is not enough light to adequately illuminate the white rings, and it is too bright to see the tritium, at this point the sights are very difficult to accurately line up. But any darker (when most shootings take place) the night sights are very visible. Tactical, attached lights not only are able to light whole rooms, but can also give bad guys a short period of blindness if used on them. The problem is that they add weight to the gun, and can possibly throw off the balance. Some argue that they also give the bad guy a nice easy target to aim at (but honestly, just try looking at the light for a few seconds — they may know the direction to shoot, but they won't see what they are shooting at). Buying a cheaper light will almost guarantee it breaking after a while. For a duty or concealed weapon, this can be left off, but for home defense use, it may help identify your target before taking action. A separate hand-held light can do most of what an attached light can do. Often lightening the trigger pull, or shortening the length of the pull. This is great for target shooting or match shooting, but a trigger pull that is less than three pounds can quickly become unsafe if you are carrying the gun a lot. It can also help a lot with quick follow up shots, making them more accurate.  This is a change that should only be made to the gun if the trigger pull is grossly heavy or long. For people with very large hands, this is a must to allow for a solid fit on the grip. The grips have problems though. They can move, affecting  accuracy and requiring constant adjustment. Most tactical-style handguns have grooves and hatches in the grip to allow a firm grip even with sweaty hands; the rubber makes the gun a bit slippery when sweaty. Additional maintenance is also required, as sweat and dirt will build up under the grip, which require the rubber to be taken off and the...

TL;DR in English: Get night sights for any conceal carry or duty weapon that you plan on using after dark. Consider getting a tactical, attached light. Consider getting trigger work to fire rounds faster. Consider a new rubber grip for comfort.

It’s hard to go wrong with a simple “Dear Susan,” as the introductory address of your message. If for some reason this feels inappropriate, it’s also acceptable to simply begin with a name. The most important thing is that the recipient be able to see right away that the letter is intended for their eyes.  Though they’re a more traditional method of correspondence, thank-you letters aren’t inherently formal, so there’s no need employ overly proper language. Avoid vague, impersonal headers like “dear valued client” or “to whom it may concern.” Address the person or people you’re sending the letter to by their first name, except in professional situations. “Dear Richard and Angela” sounds much more personable than “dear friend” or even “dear Thompsons.” To avoid any embarrassing mistakes, double check to make sure you’ve spelled the recipient’s name correctly.  If you’re not on a first-name basis with the recipient, it’s okay to use a last name or official title, such as “Mr. Jeffries” or “Chairwoman Diaz.”  Letters addressed to a large group or organization should use the entire name of the group (“Dear Boys and Girls Club of Detroit”). Don’t neglect to also send letters individually to specific people who have helped you. Since the whole reason you’re writing is to offer thanks, they should come first and foremost in the letter. Don’t distract your reader with a lengthy preamble. Let them know right away what to expect from the letter they’ve just opened. Keep it simple: “Thank you for coming to my going away party this weekend” or “I’m writing to let you know how much I loved your gift” are both explicit and to the point. After you’ve extended a few words of appreciation, elaborate on how much the recipient’s actions meant to you. Refer directly to the part the recipient played in the event that prompted the letter. This could involve describing how you’ve put a gift to use, highlighting a personal connection or displaying your excitement over their attendance.  You might thank your son or daughter’s new...

No one likes to be criticized. It can be very hard to hear how you’ve failed to meet your partner’s expectations – you might feel unfairly blamed, misunderstood, or attacked. However, think about the reason you and your partner are communicating in the first place.  Keep in mind that your relationship shouldn’t be a power-struggle. The fact that your partner has an honest criticism doesn’t mean that you are “losing.” Tell yourself, in the same way, that criticism isn’t a zero-sum game. The point is to establish some give and take and hopefully improve your relationship. You’ll never be able to accept honest criticism from a partner unless you start to lower your defenses, listen, and empathize. Give your partner the floor, for one thing. Don’t interrupt to deny, refute, or turn back the criticism. This is a huge sign that you’re being defensive.  Try this trick: count to ten every time that you are tempted to interrupt. There’s a fair chance that once you’re done the moment will have passed and your point won’t matter anymore. Count higher if you still feel the urge, to twenty or thirty. Stop yourself deliberately and apologize if you do interrupt. Cut yourself off, express regret for your rudeness, and let your partner resume. People have a whole arsenal of defensive tactics that they use to ignore or deflect criticism. Learn to recognize what these are, how you use them, and how to disarm them. Once you’ve done so, you’ll be better able to listen and create an open dialogue for honest criticism.  Do you placate or outright deny, saying “Sure honey, whatever you say” or “No, I don’t do anything of the sort”? Or do you ignore the criticism or stonewall: “Well, that’s just how I am. Deal with it.” None of these tactics allow for an exchange of honest criticism. Some defensive tactics are less obvious and rely on manipulation. They can include invalidation – “Why are you making such a big deal out of this? – as well as guilting, for instance, “Why are you being so cruel? What about how I feel?” Other tactics...

TL;DR in English: Remind yourself it’s not a zero-sum game. Don’t interrupt. Disarm other defensive tactics. Pay attention to your non-verbal signals. Ask to postpone the conversation.

Sometimes it can help to create a physical tribute to your grandparent by making a memorial. This could be a collection of photographs of your grandparent or a drawing or painting you make of your grandparent and frame. You could then hang it in a special spot in your home or your room so you always remember your grandparent. Take time out of your day to spend some time at your grandparent’s grave. Bring flowers or sentimental items to place at his grave as a form of tribute and acknowledgement. This can also give you the opportunity to “talk” to your grandparent at the grave and share any emotions or feelings you are experiencing. Often, visiting the grave can act as a form of comfort during the grieving process. Another way to create a tribute to your grandparent is to sit down and write a personal letter or story about your grandparent or dedicated to your grandparent. You can then store the letter in a safe place and read it whenever you are feeling sad about her death. Expressing your emotions by writing them down can help you to process your grief and cope with her death. Another way to pay tribute to your grandparent is to keep his memory alive by sharing memories and stories about him with your family. This could be a funny story from his childhood that was relayed to you by another family member or a memory you have of a time you both spent together while he was still alive. You may make this a habit around the grandparent's birthday or on the anniversary of her death to remember her and pay tribute to her. Having a consistent day or days where you remember the grandparent can help with the grieving process.

TL;DR in English:


See a doctor regularly. Treat high blood pressure. Treat high cholesterol Control your diabetes.

Diagnosing PM always begins with a physical exam. Your doctor will ask you to lift your arms, turn your head, and make other moves that involve the affected muscle groups. They’ll ask when and where you specifically feel weakness or pain when moving or at rest. They’ll also check your heart and lungs with a stethoscope. You’ll also be asked questions about your medical history and family history—even though PM isn’t passed on genetically, it can be more common in some families. After a simple blood draw at your doctor’s office, your blood will be tested for 2 major things. 1 is the enzyme known as CK, which leaks from damaged muscle fibers. The other is for antibodies that are specific to inflammatory myopathies like PM. The antibodies are evidence of your immune system attacking your muscles, and the enzyme is proof of their destruction of healthy tissue. This test involves sticking a needle that’s connected to a machine into your muscle tissue in various locations. The device checks for electrical activity in the muscles during both rest and contraction.  You may be wary of the needle, and the fact is that this procedure is a bit painful. The doctor can apply a topical anesthetic to your skin, but it will still hurt where the needle enters your muscle tissue. These spots may remain painful for a few days. However, electromyogram is an effective diagnostic tool for PM and is nearly always worth the discomfort. MRIs are not always used to help diagnose PM, but they can be beneficial in some cases. An MRI essentially creates cross-sectional images of your muscle tissue, and can therefore open large areas to examination without invasive procedures.   MRIs are painless and a good choice for most people, but remaining still in the enclosed chamber can be a challenge for some. Learn about the procedure, ask questions, and don’t be afraid to voice your concerns. Ask how long the procedure will take, and let the doctor know if you're worried about being in a small space for that long. You may be able to use soothing...

TL;DR in English: Let your doctor do a physical exam. Have your blood tested for specific enzymes and antibodies. Consent to an electromyogram. Ask whether an MRI may prove useful. Undergo a muscle biopsy for definitive evidence.

To ensure you rephrase content in your own words, careful reading is key. Read the content you're rephrasing over and over again until you feel you completely understand it.  Take notes while reading the content. This way, you'll already be rephrasing it slightly. After reading each paragraph, pause and restate what was said. Imagine you're explaining the content to someone else. Unless you're quoting directly, make sure most of the original diction is cut from your writing. Some words may be unavoidable. For example, if you're talking about a particular science term, you'll have to use that word. For the most part, however, avoid the original words as much as you can.  For example, if you're writing about sex determination in chromosomes, you will have to use the term "chromosome." Some people think they can save time by simply replacing original words with synonyms. Not only is this likely to sound clunky, it can still be read as plagiarism if you don't change basic sentence structure. While you should rephrase the information to avoid plagiarism, the end goal is to use the information to support your own thesis or argument. Think of how the content relates to your particular paper or essay and build off the material you cite. For instance, if your paper is about determining gender during pregnancy, you might add, “Therefore, the best way to determine the gender of an unborn child is with a DNA test, not a sonogram.” Even if you've put the content into your own words, you need to source it.

There are a couple of different ways for you to tell whether a boy likes you or not. Here are some tricks to find out without coming out and asking him.  Ask him to carry your backpack to class. Tell him it's heavy and he looks strong enough to carry it easily. If he says yes, it probably means that he likes you enough to do favors for you, and likes that you think he's strong. If you want to tell one of your friends something when he's there, tell him to close his ears or to step back a little. This will make him want to hear what's going on even more, and you'll know that he cares. Be sure he does not already have a partner. Double-check to make sure that none of your friends like him. You don't want to stir up a lot of drama with your friends, because you might lose a friend and scare your crush away.  If one of your friends does like him, you should discuss who "gets" him. If you can't come to a fair agreement (such as who liked him first, he chooses, etc.), both of you should move on. If you decide to let your friend go after him and they get together, don't hold it against him or her. Stay friends with them. Be happy for them and realize that there will be plenty of other boys in your future. If you don't get the person you like, don't get sad. Be confident in who you are deep down inside and love yourself from the inside out.  Sometimes, after a boy realizes you like them that way, they start to see you in a different light. Even if he says no, he may start to subconsciously think about the characteristics that he likes about you or why you would make a good girlfriend. Shy boys don't always have the courage to tell other people how they really feel, or they don't know how to. If you like a shy boy and he doesn't seem interested, it could be because he gets nervous around you and doesn't know what to do. If he is shy, keep trying to make him feel comfortable around you. Definitely hang out with him in places where he is most comfortable.

TL;DR in English: Test him. Make sure the coast is clear. Don't give up.

Your passenger-side front tire should be gently touching the curb, and your passenger-side rear tire should be no more than six inches from the curb.  If you are parking uphill, make sure to leave a full car's length of space behind your vehicle. You will need this space to back into the curb. If you are parking on a downhill incline, be sure to leave a full car's length of space in front of your car so that the wheels can roll forward into position. Face your tires away from the curb if you are parking uphill. Twist them toward the curb if you are parking downhill. Press your foot on the brake, put the car in neutral, and turn your steering wheel one full turn in the proper direction. Avoid "dry steering" – turning your wheels while the vehicle is completely stopped. This is hard on the tires and the power steering system. First, put the car into neutral, but keep your foot on the brake. When you are ready, take your foot off the brake. Let the car roll slowly downhill until you feel your front tire touch the curb. Hit the foot-brake to stop the car. Make sure that there are no other cars coming up or down the hill behind you. Check your mirrors and look over your shoulder. Then, shift the car into either first gear or reverse. Leave the vehicle in first gear if you are parking on an uphill incline, and leave it in reverse if you are parking on a downhill incline. This will help keep your car from rolling, as it sets your transmission in the opposite direction that the car would roll if your emergency brake fails.

TL;DR in English: Park your car parallel to the curb. Turn the tires. Roll the car into the curb. Pull the handbrake.

Unlike tire straps, axle straps use your vehicle’s weight and suspension to help keep it in place. This is typically the best option for bulky classic cars produced before 1990 and large vehicles like trucks and four wheelers. Axle straps can cause unwanted damage to small or modern vehicles. Pull an axle strap around the left side of your car’s rear axle bar. Then, secure it by closing the strap’s metal clip. If your strap has a padded section, make sure that section is the part that touches the axle. Your car’s rear housing holds its rear axle, which is the long horizontal bar that connects the back wheels. Grab a ratchet strap that has a metal clip on the end. Connect the clip to the D-ring on the back left side of the trailer, then give it a tug to make sure it holds. D-rings are the inset rings bolted onto the trailer. They’re generally located on each corner of the vehicle. Pull the free end of your axle strap through the ratchet buckle’s center hole, leaving just a small amount of slack. Then, raise and lower the ratchet’s handle 3 or 4 times to lock the strap in place. If your ratchet strap has a second metal clip, hook it onto the axle strap’s metal ring (the part you tied to the rear axle housing). Check to make sure that your straps are secure and completely connected. Then, move the ratchet’s handle up and down until the straps are fairly taut. Make sure to keep the straps straight and don’t twist them as you tighten, since twisting can make unloading more difficult.  Overtightening the straps can lead to axle damage. If your straps feel like they’re starting to strain, loosen them slightly. If you’re left with any loose strap ends, tie them up using bungee cords or cable ties. Grab a second axle strap and a second ratchet strap. Then, repeat the fastening process by wrapping the axle strap around the right side of the rear axle, hooking the ratchet strap onto the adjacent D-ring, and connecting the straps together. Just like with the previous side, make sure the straps are tight enough to secure...

TL;DR in English: Use axle straps to secure large or old vehicles. Wrap an axle strap around your car’s rear axle. Clip a ratchet strap to the trailer’s left rear D-ring. Thread the axle strap into the ratchet. Ratchet the straps to make them taut. Repeat the process on the rear right side. Tie down the front axle.

Routine check-ups can catch early arterial problems. You don't necessarily need a yearly check-up. If you are under 30 and otherwise healthy, going to your doctor once every two to three years is enough. A check-up every other year is sufficient for those between 30 and 40 who do not have any medical conditions. Annual physicals should start at around the age of 50, earlier if you are at special risk or have other health problems. As said before, high blood pressure can increase your risk of arterial problems and over time cause arteries to stiffen. It therefore needs to be treated. In addition to lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, coping with stress, and limiting sodium and alcohol, it is also possible, with your doctor, to treat high blood pressure through medication. Diuretics, ACE inhibitors, and calcium channel blockers are all common medicines which, in different ways, stop or slow body functions that increase blood pressure. It is not uncommon for someone to take more than one medication for high blood pressure. You may also experience side-effects. In that case, do not stop taking the medication but ask your doctor if she can change the dosage or drug. . As said before, high cholesterol is also an indirect factor in the development of atherosclerosis. Your cholesterol level may be high from your diet and/or from your body making too much cholesterol on its own. Apart from losing weight and reducing your consumption of saturated and trans fats, minding food labels carefully, you may need to ask your doctor for medical help in lowering your cholesterol. Statins, for example, block a substance that your liver needs to make cholesterol, which causes the liver to remove the cholesterol from the blood. Statins not only lower cholesterol levels but help the body absorb existing deposits on artery walls, which can possibly reverse coronary artery disease. Other medications may also protect the arteries by decreasing the inflammation, which is thought to contribute to heart disease. Diabetes can cause...

Take an oatmeal bath. Use rubbing alcohol and meat tenderizer. Use hand sanitizer. Try rubbing the bite area very carefully with a paste made from water and baking soda. Use ammonia.

You may have difficulty fighting the urge to procrastinate, but keep in mind that feedback and revisions can sometimes take up to a week. If you wait, you may forget a lot of important details from the experiment. Having a rough version of your report at the ready a month in advance can save you from unnecessary stress and from having to turn in unpolished work.  You may have performed supplemental experiments/simulations, or repeated your initial experience after receiving your first round of feedback. Feedback should go through the following stages ideally:   (a) Self-review and revision  (b) Peer review and constructive feedback  (c) Advisor/instructor review and feedback The goal of your experiment or the goal of proving or disproving certain hypotheses is essentially unimportant when you are writing a lab report. The data contained in it could be anything, and you may very well have to write lab reports in the future that seem silly or unnecessary. The goal of your lab report is to be read and evaluated by another person, like your instructor.  It can help to remind yourself of this goal at the beginning of every section before you start writing. When you finish a section of your report, read it through carefully and at the end of it, ask yourself: was that easy to read and understand? Did I succeed in my goal? The narrowest purpose of your lab report is to enable your seniors, advisors, and/or an evaluation committee to confirm your ability to consistently and clearly produce a report. But once you start devising and performing labs of your own, it's quite possible that your peers or juniors will utilize it as a resource. If you believe your paper might be of use to researchers in another discipline, like a social science, you may want to include definitions or explanations for the more technical jargon used in your paper. Take a piece of scrap paper and pencil and list the necessary sections of your lab report in order. Under each section, jot a few sentences that summarize what must be covered in that...

TL;DR in English: Get a head start on your lab report as soon as possible. Write your report with the primary goal of readability. Determine your present audience, and potential future ones. Outline the general structure of your lab report. Break sections of your report into subsections, if necessary.

Lyrically, songs are made up of verses, choruses, and lyrics. Familiarize yourself with these different parts of a song. This will help you establish the basics and begin the songwriting process.  The verses of a song usually have the same melody but different lyrics. For example, in "Eleanor Rigby" the verses all follow the same melody, detailing the lives of various lonely people. If you listen closely, you'll notice all these stories follow the same melody and have roughly the same number of syllables. The chorus is a part of a song that is repeated three or four times, each time using the same melody and lyrics. In Eleanor Rigby, the chorus is, "Ah, look at all the lonely people." A chorus is often used to sum up the theme or main point of a song.  The bridge of a song has a different melody and lyrics than the verse or chorus. It provides a break from the usual progression of the song and the lyrics may reveal a hidden insight in the song. Not all songs have bridges, so including one is optional.  Most songs follow this basic structure: verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus. However, there are many variations. Using a basic structure at first, however, can help give you direction creatively. You can always make alterations to the basic structure as you write your song. If you're a beginning songwriter, a simple melody is important. You do not need an elaborate melody to convey a sad feeling. A simple melody, using a few notes or chords, is the best option for a beginning songwriter.  To start, practice some popular that are also fairly simple. Use a guitar or piano to play songs like Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'" or Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here." You'll notice that the melodies are not very complex and yet the songs still convey deep feeling.  Experiment. Sit at the piano for a few hours or strum on your guitar. Play a variety of note and chord progressions, feeling around for the right sound. If you're a beginner, it might be best to stick to the 12 basic notes without incorporating flat or sharp...

TL;DR in English: Learn how songs are composed. Be open to a simple melody. Use the minor third, if possible. Listen to your favorite sad songs.

It sounds simple enough, but it is so easy to get wrapped up in how-to advice and forget about how cool you are already just for existing. Every person is as unique and offers something different to the world which is a great and beautiful thing. “Cool” isn't so much an aesthetic as it is a vibe, granted there are things that assist that vibe physically, but a lot of the work happens within. While it is okay to find yourself, it's never okay to alter yourself just to fit the mold. Embrace what makes you different because that uniqueness is the key to looking cool. When you feel cool, you look cool. Go against the grain and like what you like, even if it is the road less traveled as far as interests go. If you are into gaming or anime conventions, but people rarely are, do your thing. If you enjoy staying in while others enjoy going out, do you. Don't force yourself to be a part of what everyone else is doing. Instead find ways to be outgoing while being true to your wants and interest. That just makes you cooler and more interesting. Know that even the best people, as with anything, come with good and bad. There are parts of yourself that you won't like, aspects about your appearance that you wish to change, but instead of punishing yourself for your faults, own them and use them to your advantage. Embracing what makes you unique not only adds to reaffirming your overall sense of self, but it also adds to your confidence.  Knowing not only who you are, but carrying intelligence in other areas of life: music, film, academics, sports adds a cool unique flair to your personality. Be upbeat and optimistic. Draw people towards you with your sunny personality and award-winning smile. When you feel good about yourself, it usually bursts out of you and touches others around you, and the more positive and confident you are, the more like-minded individuals you'll find in your circle. Attracting those personalities naturally round out your cool vibe.

TL;DR in English: Be yourself. Own who you are and appreciate it as individuality. Be positive and kind.

Add 1-2 cups of rolled or steel-cut oats to a warm bath, and soak in the tub for at least 15 minutes. The oats may help soothe the itching and reduce inflammation. After brushing off the ants, immediately rinse the area with rubbing alcohol and leave it wet. Note, though, that alcohol could also make the ant bite worse. Elevate the area and sprinkle a generous amount of meat tenderizer on the area. Golfers sometimes use this method in Florida.  Keep a bottle of liquid hand sanitizer handy in your bag. Apply the hand sanitizer to the bite area liberally after freeing your skin of ants. Let it stay in place. Take Benadryl or equivalent antihistamine when you get back home. This may help lessen the itching and can help to reduce redness. A paste made from baking soda and vinegar may also work. As may vinegar on its own. [citation needed] As soon as you are stung, use ammonia to rinse the area as quickly as possible. This may help minimize the effects of the stings.

Make bite-sized cookie dough balls. Add cookie dough to ice cream. Make truffles.

Put on some rubber or latex gloves to protect your hands. Turn the bottle of dye upside down and shake it. Also stir the mixture to loosen any of the pigment that has settled to the bottom of the bottle. Pour the dye into a disposable container.  Always read the instructions that come with the dye. If you are creating an intermediate color, go ahead and mix the dyes at this time. The basic rules of color mixing apply to leather dyes as well. For example, yellow and blue can be mixed to make green.  You can dilute the dye with water to adjust the color. Play around with the water-to-dye ratio and test the color on swatches before you apply the dye to your boots. Use a sponge brush, paint brush, or cloth to apply the dye to your boots. Apply a thin coat of the dye using long,even strokes in the same direction (e.g. vertical or horizontal). Allow the dye to dry for 30 minutes, and then apply a second coat.  Some dyes will come with an application brush. However, use whatever tool is most comfortable for you. If you are not satisfied with the color after the second coat, you can apply a third coat. Always allow the coat to dry for 30 minutes each time. If you apply your first coat using horizontal brushes, apply the second coat using vertical brushes. This will ensure an even application of the dye. Consider using a small paintbrush for fine details and hard to reach areas, such as the spot where the sole and the heel meet the leather. Test a small area before you apply the dye to your entire boot. Dyes work best if you are going from a lighter to a darker color. If you are making a drastic color change, use an intermediate color to achieve better results. The first color you use will neutralize the original color on your boots. Then follow up that color with your desired final color.  If you are going from white to black, dye the shoes green or blue first and finish with black. If you are going from white to brown, dye the shoes light green first and finish with brown. If you are going from red to black, dye the...

TL;DR in English: Mix the dye. Apply the dye. Use an intermediate color if necessary.

" This basic greeting will work in almost any situation. You could also use "góðan daginn" (good day) or "góða nótt" (good evening/good night) depending on the time of day.  Unlike some other languages, such as Spanish or French, Icelandic doesn't have a separate polite or formal greeting, or a formal version of the you pronoun. Icelandic uses the same greeting for everyone, and addresses everyone by their first names, since surnames aren't really used in Iceland the way they are used in other cultures. You can also use velkominn (welcome) to greet someone. This is typically more appropriate when you are welcoming someone into a place, or meeting someone who arrived at your invitation. " When you ask this question, the person will most likely ask you the same thing in return. They'll likely say "fínt, takk fyrir," which means "I'm fine, thanks," and then say "En þú?" ("and you?") You might also ask "Hvað er að frétta?" which is similar to asking "what's happening?" or "what's new?" in English. The likely response to this question is "ekkert sérstakt," which means "nothing much." When the person introduces themselves to you in return, you can say "Gaman að kynnast þér," which means "nice to meet you." You might then add "ég er frá" followed by the name of your home country, if you want to tell the person where you live. Another phrase that might come in handy is "ég er að læra íslensku," which means "I am learning Icelandic." As you progress in a conversation, the other person is likely going to ask what brings you to Iceland, or what made you want to learn Icelandic. You can respond by telling them some of the things that attracted you to Icelandic language and culture. For example, if you became interested in Icelandic because of your love of the band Sigur Rós, you might say "Ég elska Sigur Rós," which means "I love Sigur Rós." If you are a Sigur Rós fan, you might recognize the word takk as the title of one of their albums. It also means "thank you" in Icelandic. Gætir means please.  The word for "excuse...

TL;DR in English: Greet someone by saying "halló. Say "Hvernig hefur þú það" to ask "how are you? Introduce yourself by saying "Ég heiti" followed by your name. Use "ég elska" to talk about things you like. Mind your manners with takk and gætir. Say goodbye with the Icelandic word "bless.

Using a large spatula, cut a path down the middle of the mixture with the edge of the spatula. Gently turn half the mixture over onto the other half.  Continue cutting down the middle and turning a portion over. This will work even better if you use a large metal spoon or a palette knife to "cut" the egg whites into the mixture. The purpose of folding is to retain the air you have beaten into the whites. Be careful to only work the batter enough to incorporate the whites, and never use an electric mixer for this step. The finished mixture should still look a little lumpy but no egg whites should actually be showing.

TL;DR in English: Fold the egg whites into the batter. Don't stir the egg whites into the batter. Finished.

If you've removed too much hair, the best thing to do is stay away from the tweezers or wax. Let your eyebrow hair grow back in naturally over the course of 3 weeks or so before shaping them again.  Your hair grows in stages, so waiting at least 3 weeks will give enough time for hair at every stage to grow in. Create a very clear shape, and stick to it. Be careful about getting absorbed looking at your eyebrows close-up without seeing the big picture. Take a step back from the mirror occasionally to check that your shape is in line. Don't change the shape of your brow often. This will make it look odd over time. Stick with 1 natural-looking shape and maintain it.

TL;DR in English: Allow the hair to grow in if you've thinned them too much.

If you are expecting a layover, bring a book or magazine with you. If you find yourself book-less, check out one of the airport shops and purchase something there. Choose something you find engrossing; getting lost in the pages will pass the time more quickly. Have a few options on hand so you can switch back and forth when you feel like it. For instance, buy one of your favorite magazines to read when you need breaks from a dense novel. Switching gears occasionally may prevent you from getting bored with even the most thrilling of books. Getting some shut-eye is a great way to pass the time, especially during overnight layovers. Even a quick power nap can leave you feeling refreshed. If you’re traveling with other people, ask them to watch your stuff while you sleep. Do this with caution if you’re traveling by yourself, since airport theft does happen.  Some airports have designated sleeping areas with comfy chairs where you can secure your belongings. If you’re truly exhausted and facing a long layover, check out the room pricing at the airport hotel. Some airports even offer rooms that you can rent out for a few hours at a time. If you are between one long flight and another, walk around the airport and restore circulation to your legs. Many airports include public exhibits. Otherwise, you can window-shop, read regional billboards, watch airplanes, or simply look around and locate your next flight’s gate. Get some fresh air if you can. Most airports have restaurants and snack bars, even inside security. A meal will give you energy, and it will taste better and likely cost less on the ground than it would in the air. It's easy to get dehydrated when you're traveling, so grab a bottle of water or another of your favorite beverages. Find out what your airport offers before grabbing something from the closest fast food chain. Some have extremely nice restaurants with gourmet offerings. If you don’t have one with you, pick up a blank journal from one of the bookstores in the airport. You can document your...

TL;DR in English: Bring something to read. Take a nap. Take a walk. Get a meal, drink or snack. Write in your journal. Do a little people watching.

Raw cookie dough that doesn’t contain eggs is safe to eat raw, and can be eaten alone or added to other desserts. To make cookie dough balls:  Divide your favorite cookie dough into tablespoon-sized bits. Use your hands to roll the dough bits into small balls. Chill them in the fridge before serving to prevent them from becoming too soft and doughy. Use the dough balls immediately, or store them in an air-tight container in the freezer for up to 12 months. Cookie dough balls can be added to many forms of ice cream, including sundaes and milkshakes. To add them to a bowl of ice cream, let the ice cream sit for a few minutes to soften up. When it’s soft enough, add the desired amount of cookie dough balls to the bowl and mix them into the ice cream. Serve in a bowl with a spoon, or transfer to a cone. To add cookie dough to a milk shake, add the balls after the milk shake has been blended, otherwise they will be blended up and lost in the milk shake. Cookie dough can be made into cookie dough truffles by simply adding a chocolate coating. Use a double boiler to melt one cup of chocolate chips. When the chips are melted, remove them from the heat.  You can use dark chocolate, milk chocolate, white chocolate, or even butterscotch chips to make the truffle coating. Coat the cookie dough balls. One at a time, roll each cookie dough ball in the chocolate to coat completely. Transfer the chocolate-covered cookie dough balls to a parchment-lined cookie sheet. When you’ve covered all the balls, transfer the cookie dough truffles to the freezer to let the chocolate set. Serve cold.
