In the rules of big two, the three of diamonds is the lowest ranked card, so it must be placed first either by itself or in some combination. The rules of big two revolve around the game’s own ranking of the cards and suits. The gameplay is essentially successive players placing increasingly ranked cards until no longer able.  The namesake of the game comes from it’s ranking of the game’s cards (from high to low): 2, Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10 to 3. The suits are ranked (from high to low): spades, hearts, clubs, and diamonds. There are four combinations in which cards can be played: single cards, pairs of cards, triples, and five card groups. If the player with the three of diamonds has another three in their hand, or two threes, they might consider playing the card in a double or triple. The advantage to this is that it forces the remaining players to also play a double or triple, potentially damaging their ability to get cards out of their hand.  When playing a pair of cards, they must be of equal rank (ex. two nines or two jacks). Triples work in the same way. Higher suits will determine rank among equal pairs (ex. a nine of spades and of diamonds beats a nine of hearts and of clubs, because the spade is higher). For groups of five cards, there are five different ways to play them, many of the combinations similar to ones in poker. Naturally, five card groups are considered the most valuable because they are the most difficult to match and outrank. The groups are listed here in rank from lowest to highest:  You can play a straight, which is five cards of successive rank using any suits (ex. six of hearts, seven of diamonds, eight of hearts, nine of clubs, and ten of spades). When ranks are identical, the suit of the highest ranked card determines supremacy. Four of a kinds are also possible, and you include any other card to make a combination of five. The four must be of the same rank (ex. all 4 sevens, and a three of spades). Choosing between two four of a kinds, the rank of the four cards decides...

TL;DR in English: Begin the game by playing the three of diamonds. Play the three of diamonds in a pair or triple. Play the three of diamonds in a group of five. Continue play until everybody passes. Begin a new round. Score the remaining players.

Many people who are experiencing PMS will have physical symptoms like abdominal cramps, nausea, fatigue, and constipation. You can help your partner deal with these symptoms by taking over some of their chores and responsibilities at home. Their PMS can make it more difficult to do yard work, lift heavy objects, or clean the house every day. You can support them by taking over these chores and giving them time to rest as they deal with their PMS. You may discuss taking over some of your partner's house chores to give her a few hours of downtime during the days before their period. Discussing this and agreeing to an arrangement where you take over some of the chores and responsibilities at home can show them you are trying to support them and consider their condition when they are  PMSing. If your partner is usually the one cooking meals and preparing meals for you and/or your family, pitch in and offer to take over the food duties while they are PMSing. The will likely appreciate the opportunity to not have to cook for the household while they are PMSing. You may create a meal plan and get enough groceries to feed the family while your partner waits for their period. This will give them a break and allow them to relax while they deal with their PMS. To help your partner deal with their PMS cramps, you can prepare foods that have been shown to ease cramps and abdominal pain. Salmon, celery, and fresh herbs like dill and parsley can all help to reduce inflammation. Dark chocolate (at least 70 percent cocoa) can help your partner relax and de-stress.  You should avoid preparing foods that contain dairy, as they can irritate your partner's stomach and cause cramping. Stick to foods low in processed sugar, as sugary foods can trigger cramps. Make sure your partner is drinking lots of water and prepare herbal teas to help relieve her cramping. Green tea and rosehip tea have both been shown to help ease abdominal pain. Avoid preparing coffee or food high in caffeine for your partner, as they can lead to higher...

TL;DR in English: Take over their house chores and responsibilities. Offer to cook them meals. Prepare foods and beverages that help with cramps. Pamper them. Be attuned to their sexual needs.

Do you consider your parents to be generally anxious people? Do they tend to worry about small details in day-to-day life in addition to you? Many overprotective parents have preexisting issues with anxiety that may make them extra vigilant regarding their kids. Try to understand your parents have your best interests at heart. Accept that anxiety, over which your parents likely have little control, is a major factor in how they behave towards you. If you want your parents to worry less, show them you're responsible. Making small changes to your day-to-day routine can help your parents see they do not have to worry.  If you live at home, approach your parents as soon as possible if you're asking for permission to go somewhere. Be upfront about who you'll be with and how long you'll be out. Your parents will appreciate your maturity.  Be aware that adults often follow many of the same rules they apply to you. For instance, it can be troubling to simply disappear and not let the people who care about you know where you are, even as an adult. Adults let each other know where they are going if they are in loving, healthy relationships. If you want to be treated as a mature individual, then show your parents you are trustworthy and considerate. Do your homework without prompting. Strive to eat healthier meals. Do day-to-day chores. Show your parents you are mature. This will help lessen their anxiety about the decisions you make.  If you live away from home, try to fill your parents in on your accomplishments and small indications you're capable of taking care of yourself. Did you eat a particularly healthy meal this week? Clean your apartment? Did you make the Dean's list this semester? Try to mention this during your weekly phone calls home. Remember, sometimes your parents do know best. They are older and have had more life experience. If you're confused about something, it's okay to seek out your parents advice and be open to what they have to say. If your parents see you're mature enough to seek advice when...

TL;DR in English: Consider the role of anxiety in overprotective parents. Show your parents you're capable of making good choices. Be open to advice on occasion.

Split ends are the most obvious symptom of damage, and if left unchecked can continue splitting and destroy the healthiness of your hair. Inspect your hair for split ends every couple of weeks and either get your hairstylist to touch them up or trim them yourself. Make sure to also give your hair a “feel test” every now and then by running your fingers along the length of a few strands of hair. This can tell you if any breakage has occurred along the strand.  Make sure you trim split ends past the point of the split, or else it will just continue breaking. Even if you don’t have split ends, hair that feels rough when you glide your fingers over it can be in danger of weakening. Eat a balanced diet full of protein, fiber, and good fats. Many of the vitamins you might use to keep your hair healthy are the same ones that are found in food. Unprocessed foods like salmon, nuts, olives, green vegetable, and whole grains can give your body the nutritive boost it needs to keep hair, skin, and nails healthy.  The term "good fats" typically refers to monounsaturated fats—the kind found in avocados, almonds, olive oil, dark chocolate and other foods that you might see displayed on your shampoo bottle. Excessive sugar and alcohol consumption has been shown to be bad for skin and hair. Your body heals its tissues while you rest, so make sure you’re getting enough. People who suffer from sleep deprivation often experience hair loss as the hair and follicle become weaker and weaker due to physical stress. For most folks, 6-8 hours a night will be optimal. Not only will you feel better by being more rested, your hair will also reap the benefit of your repose by retaining its strength and luster. Supplement your nightly rest with short naps throughout the day if need be.

TL;DR in English: Trim split ends regularly. Eat a nutritious diet. Get plenty of sleep.

It will be easier to remove a clog if the pipes are free of water. If the water doesn't drain, you may need to try plunging or snaking. If you have a strainer that is attached with screws, use a screwdriver to remove it. Some drain covers simply lift out or can be unscrewed with your hands. Put the cover in the open position and remove any screws that need to be undone. Then lift the cover out. If you have a drop stopper, lift the stopper and find the screw at tub level. Unscrew it and the top section of the device. Most clogs are caused by hair. If the hair is sitting near the surface, just pull it out with your fingers. Wear rubber gloves if you don't want to touch the hair with your bare hands.

TL;DR in English: Wait for several minutes after showering so that the water can drain. Use a screwdriver or your hands to remove the drain stopper. Remove surface level clogs by hand.

Place the gravel and any decorations back into your clean fish bowl before putting clean water in the bowl. Make sure everything is arranged the way it was before so as not to upset the fish by changing their environment. Fill the fish bowl with room temperature water that has been treated or left out overnight to reach room temperature. If you choose to use dechlorinator, be careful not to spill it, as it could leave a chemical smell on your carpet or furniture.  Again, you may wish to use a dechlorinator rather than waiting overnight for chlorine levels to neutralize. If this is the case, make sure allow the water temperature to equalize before placing the fish back in the tank.  Be sure to cover the water or put it out of reach if you have pets or children. This will help you ensure the water is not contaminated while it is aging. Scoop your fish from the temporary holding tank using your fishnet or small bowl. Try to move the fish as quickly as possible to avoid stressing the fish. Also, take care not to drop the fish or let them fall, as they can be badly injured if this occurs. Place your fish back into the fish bowl that has been filled with clean water. Gently lower the fish into the water using a net or a bowl. Do not just dump the fish into the bowl. Fish are most likely to experience stress and environmental or temperature related maladies during and immediately after cleaning their tank. So, keep a close eye on your fish after putting them back in their bowl to ensure they are adjusting well to their cleaned environment.

TL;DR in English:


Freeze mashed potatoes in .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties on a baking sheet. Keep scalloped potatoes or potato casserole in the baking dish when freezing.

Clean the bath thoroughly first. Disinfectant and a very good rinse. Repeat this step every single time you bathe with a new piercing. Very hot water will cause your piercing to swell and hurt. If not possible, do everything you can to keep the piercing well clear of the water. Make sure a minimum amount of contact occurs between the piercing and the water. Do not allow any soap, shampoo, conditioner or any other chemicals to get on the piercing. Do not touch, pull, tug, brush against, wash over, scrub around or near the piercing whilst you are in the water. Then immediately rinse the wound out with sea salt water (one pinch in an eggcup of boiled and cooled water is about right) or tea tree oil. Ideally both. The purpose of this is to rinse out any bacteria, or soaps that might have snuck in there, and it is absolutely critically important that you do this as soon as you are out of the water.

TL;DR in English: Do it in your own, clean bath. Be sensible with the temperature of the water. If possible, cover the piercing with a waterproof dressing. Make the bath as quick as possible. Once you get out, pat the area dry very lightly with a clean, soft towel. Clean your piercing thoroughly before you sleep that night using normal procedure.

to bond the blocks together. Your installation kit may come with a bonding material. Otherwise, buy a mortar designed for use with glass blocks from a hardware store. Measure out the amount of water that the mortar instructs you to use and pour it into a bucket. Then add the mortar and mix it with a shovel in a circular motion. Mix for 5-10 minutes, until the mortar becomes a thick paste.  The mortar packaging should indicate how many blocks the package will cover. You may need to buy more than 1 pack, depending on the size of the job. If you have an electric mixer, this will make the job much faster. For some installations, like a shower, professionals recommend using caulk instead of mortar. Always check with the instructions provided on the product you’re using. Always start in the corner when you’re installing glass blocks. Scoop some mortar with a trowel and spread it on the floor and wall of the corner.  If the installation area has 2 base corners, then you can start in either one. Start the installation right after mixing the mortar so it doesn’t harden before you’re done. Installation kits come with spacers to place between the blocks. Take a corner spacer and press it into the mortar at the corner. Make sure it touches the floor and wall directly, rather than floating on the mortar. Start by rubbing a thin layer of mortar on the side and bottom edges of the block that will contact the mortar. Then press it down into the corner so it rests on top of the spacer. Scrape away the mortar that bleeds out when you push the block down. These spacers go in between each block and remain there permanently encased in the mortar. Take the first one and press it into the corner of the first block. Then lay a second one 8 inches (20 cm) away.  If the blocks you’re using are a different size, distance the spacers the length of the block instead. If the spacers still show after you press the blocks together, touch up the area with a bit more mortar to cover them. Alternatively, you could seal the mortar with caulk...

TL;DR in English: Mix the mortar Spread a 1⁄4 in (0.64 cm) layer of mortar in the base corner of the installation. Place a corner spacer into the mortar. Press the first block into the corner. Place 2 spacers 8 inches (20 cm) apart from the first block. Spread mortar between the 2 spacers. Press the second block into position. Continue working down the line until you complete the first row. Attach a reinforcing strip across the top of the blocks. Build row-by-row until you complete the installation.

Some suspenders have 2 connecting straps with buttonholes in the back and 2 straps with a buttonhole (1 per strap) in front. However, some suspenders are more elaborate than this and the back connects with 4 buttons while each of the front straps connects with 2 buttons. Check your suspenders to see how many buttons you will need to sew onto your pants to connect the suspenders. The back strap of your suspenders will need to connect with buttons near the center of the back of the pants. Find the center seam and measure 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the center on one side. Mark the point with a piece of chalk. Measure and mark the other side as well. You can place the buttons on the inside or on the outside of your pants. Placing the buttons on the inside is usually better for a formal look, such as a pair of dress pants. Placing the buttons on the outside is more informal, such as for a pair of blue jeans. Place the buttons that attach to the suspenders in the front of your pants so they are centered on each side of the front of your pants. The buttons will go in the areas that are just above the front of your hipbone. To get a good fit, you may want to put on your pants and after you have connected the back buttons. With the back of the suspenders connected by the back buttons, sling the suspenders over your shoulders and find where you want to connect them in front. Mark these areas with chalk to indicate where to sew the buttons onto. It is best to use simple buttons to hold suspenders in place, so avoid anything too ornate. Look for buttons that will match your pants and fit through the suspender buttonholes. The buttons should be about the same size as or slightly larger than the buttonholes.

TL;DR in English: Check the type of suspenders. Measure 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the center of the back of the pants. Mark the placement of the front buttons. Choose some plain, flat, round buttons.

An important part of being an informed feminist is cultivating an awareness of systemic prejudices against women around the world.  You cannot stop every individual from having a particular opinion about women, but you can expose systemic inequalities.  You can support organizations that provide suppressed women in other cultures education and opportunities. You can notice trends such as the discrepancy between the percentage of politicians or world leaders who are female, versus the female population of the world. Realize that in systems that discriminate against women in the areas of education or employment, women’s economic lives become dependent on others in power, which takes power from them. Go to rallies that promote women’s equality.  Join organizations that fight for the equality of women in your area as well as other countries.  Speaking out about inequality is an important step towards achieving equality.  You can find resources for feminist activism http://feminist.com/activism/ here. One way that you can be a feminist and support feminist causes is to vote with women’s rights in mind.  Voting for politicians who advocate for women in the workplace and women’s healthcare rights can put your feminist beliefs into action. Additionally, you may want to find out if a candidate (male or female) has women working on his or her campaign staff.  Advocating for women’s employment rights is less meaningful if a candidate doesn’t actually employ women. Part of being a feminist is supporting the rights of everyone to do what they want in their lives and careers, even if it means breaking traditional gender stereotypes.  That means believing that a mom or a dad can choose to stay at home to raise young children.  It means believing that a man or a woman can become a CEO of a company or a politician or president.

TL;DR in English: Recognize systemic inequalities. Fight against gender discrimination. Vote for pro-women political leaders. Support the rights of women and men.

Use your hands to mold your leftover mashed potatoes into .5 in (1.3 cm) thick patties. Place the patties on a baking sheet, then cover it with plastic cling wrap. Put the mashed potatoes into the freezer for about 24 hours. Then, combine the mashed potato patties into a single airtight container. It’s best to eat them within a few weeks, as mashed potatoes don’t freeze well. Cool the dish evenly by putting it in your refrigerator for about 1-2 hours. Cover the food with moisture-resistant parchment paper, then cover it again with a lid or aluminum foil. When you're ready to reheat the dish, you can thaw it or put it directly into the oven while it's still frozen.  These types of potato dishes can be reheated in an oven at 400 °F (204 °C) for 25-30 minutes. If you have one, use a food thermometer to make sure the dish's internal temperature is at least 165 °F (74 °C). If you're making the recipe with the intention of freezing it, stop cooking the dish when it has a light brown color and the potatoes feel almost tender.

Know your community's evacuation routes. Make an emergency kit for your home, work, and vehicle. Have a family communication plan. Take a first aid course Learn some survival skills Look into flood insurance.

You will need some sort of heat-resistant container, such as a mason jar or an old candle holder, to pour your melted wax into. Make sure that the mouth of your container is wide enough for you to reach into and that the container can withstand high temperatures. You can use any candle wax for your candles, such as paraffin, soy, or even old, unscented candles. Cut or break your chosen wax into cubes. Make sure that you have enough to fill your container, plus some extra. Wax shrinks a little when it hardens, and you may find that you will have to add a little extra wax into the container during the cooling process. Fill your double boiler with water and place it on the stove, then fill the smaller chamber with wax. Turn on the stove and wait until the wax melts. It will look mostly clear.  If you do not have a double boiler, you can make your own by filling a large pot part-way with water and placing a smaller, heat-resistant container, such as a glass measuring cup, inside it. The smaller container should be at least as tall as the larger pot; it should not be submerged in the water. Place the candle wax into the smaller container, and set the large pot onto the stove. If you want to add some color to your candle, you can add in some crayons or wax dye. Wax dye usually comes in blocks, and you can find it online or in the candle-making section of an arts and crafts store. If you choose to add some color, be sure to stir your wax to blend it all in. Use about ½ teaspoon or 10 drops of oil per one pound of wax. You can use more essential oil if you'd like a more potent candle, or less essential oil if you'd prefer a less potent one. You can find citronella essential oil online or in the essential oil section of a health food store. Once you have added the oil, stir the wax to mix it all together.  Be sure to use essential oil, as a synthetic citronella oil (or citronella scent) will not be as effective at keeping the bugs away.  You can also add other candle-making scents to help compliment the citronella....

TL;DR in English: Find a clean, glass jar with a wide opening. Purchase some candle wax and cut it into small cubes. Heat the candle wax in a double boiler. Add citronella essential oil to your melted wax. Purchase a pre-waxed candle wick and cut it. Insert and attach the candle wick. Secure the candle wick. Pour the wax into the jars. Wait until your candle has cooled. Trim your wick.

. To make writing the novel much easier, plot out your novel. Use a plot diagram to plot out the novel, making sure you keep the stakes high and the conflict going in the plot. A plot diagram will have exposition, the inciting incident, rising action, climax, falling action, and resolution. You can also use the snowflake method to plot out the novel. The snowflake method consists of a one-sentence summary, a one paragraph summary, character synopses, and a spreadsheet of scenes. Start the thriller novel with a scene right in the action. Starting with action will throw the reader into the scene right away and assure them they are in for some major thrills. Introduce the crime or describe the protagonist in a the middle of a dilemma or major issue.  Avoid including backstory or exposition in the opening pages of the novel. You can do this later. Start with the most interesting or engaging moments first. For example, you may start a thriller with a description of a killer hunting down a victim. This will immerse the reader in the world of the story right away. As the novel goes on, make sure the stakes are always high for the main character and for the reader. This means putting your main character in situations that are difficult or risky. Keep conflict going between characters. Create obstacles that get in the way of the character solving a crime or achieving what they want. Make the main character’s life full of complications or issues. For example, maybe you have a thriller where a young, eager FBI agent wants to solve a difficult case. You may make it difficult for the agent to achieve their goal by causing evidence to be lost in a fire or by having a witness go missing. Do not include any unnecessary information or information that does not further the plot. Make sure the action moves forward continually in the novel and that the pace is always fast. Thriller are at their best when they are action packed and focus more on plot than anything else. For example, rather than include long sections of backstory...

TL;DR in English: Plot out the novel Begin with a bang. Maintain high stakes. Keep the action moving. Build to an exciting climax. End on a high note.

If you bring home clothes from a thrift store, wash them immediately in very hot water. You can also run them through a hot dryer. The process should kill off any bed bugs in the clothes. It may be tempting to take home what seems to be a perfectly good couch on the curb. However, furniture can harbor bed bugs, and you could be bringing them into your home. If you buy a used mattress, make sure it has been professionally cleaned first. To be on the safe side, you can encase the mattress and box springs in dust-mite covers to keep the bed bugs from biting at night. Before settling in, check your hotel room for bed bugs by inspecting the mattress and the area around the bed. Keep your luggage as far away from the bed as possible. You can use the luggage rack for your suitcase, especially if it is away from the bed. Try not to leave your luggage on the floor. When you return from travelling, immediately wash all the clothes you took on the trip on a hot temperature. Also, leave your suitcase in the garage if possible. If you have bed bugs, you may need to throw out furniture in bedding. Before doing so, you should slash up the pieces, so that other people will not take them. You should also consider leaving a note with the items for the same reason.

TL;DR in English: Wash thrift store clothes immediately. Avoid picking up furniture. Buy new mattresses. Inspect the room at a hotel. Wash clothes after a trip. Be considerate to others.

If you live in a coastal community, you probably have an evacuation route, even if you're not aware of it or if it's not often talked about. In short, it'll be the quickest way to reach high ground. You want to be, ideally, 2 miles (3.2 km) away from shore and at least 100 feet (30.5 m) above sea level.  If you are a tourist, ask your hotel or various approachable locals about policy, if you're concerned. Familiarize yourself with the terrain so if the worst were to happen, you could fend for yourself. Even though you'll probably be following everyone else, know that they're heading for high ground, too, and you should do the same. And those evacuation routes won't really do you much good if you don't practice them. So round up the kids and the family dog and...GO. How long does it take to reach your safety spot? Are there any potential issues that could crop up? Do you know how to reach your back-up route in the event one is impassable or jammed? You want one available for wherever you may be when the time comes. Worst-case scenario is you get caught somewhere for a few days before evacuations start happening, so you want 72 hours worth of goods. Put in things like a roll of toilet paper, first aid equipment, energy bars, and water. Here's a list to get you started:  Water (A large amount to last for about a week) A prepaid sim card in a phone (Be sure the phone has a long lasting battery) Canned or packaged foods (A large amount to last for about a week) Flashlight (hand cranked flashlights are a good idea) Radio (tuned to NOAA station that gives the "all clear" signal) Sanitary items such as toilet paper, moist towelettes, garbage bags, zip ties, hand sanitizer. First aid equipment (band-aids, gauze pads, etc.) Whistle Map Tools (wrench to turn off utilities, manual can opener) Duct tape Spare clothes Anything for individuals with specific needs (infants, elderly, etc.) If you're at work, the kids are at school, and your spouse is at home, all the group planning in the world won't do you any good.

TL;DR in English:


Pay attention to how long your laryngitis lasts. Be aware of dangerous symptoms, and seek medical attention immediately. Be alert to sudden changes in your child's condition. Notice how frequently you have laryngitis.

No person is ever perfect, but as the U.S. author John Steinbeck once said “Now that you don’t have to be perfect, you can be good.” Remind yourself that even Olympic gold medalists get points off on their scores (but still win).  That Albert Einstein made (but learned from) his mistakes and imperfect solutions.  Never let “perfect” undermine your self-esteem and become the enemy of all the excellent, worthwhile (but unfortunately imperfect) things you are capable of.  Striving for absolute “perfection” can be counterproductive, because it can diminish an accomplishment or task completion just because it is not flawless success.   Perfectionism is also closely linked to depression, troubled relationships, and decreased life satisfaction. If you are unsure whether something you wish to do will upset your parents, ask first. If you are hesitant to ask, it is probably a good sign that it will upset your parents.  When asking, always ensure you've thought through the possible outcomes of what you are asking to do and anticipate the concerns your parents will have. Don't get upset.  Although your parents may seem resistant to your suggestion, remember to stay cool-headed and present facts and examples that illustrate why you should do something and why you are capable of handling any outcomes. Especially if you are still living at home, if your parents say "no," always honor their wishes, even if it is not what you would prefer. When you have promised parents you will do something, but wait until you have to be told again (and again), it can create negative tensions.  Set expectations early.  Say “Mom, I have [x, y and z] to finish before I’ll have time, but as soon as I am free, I will take care of this,” then complete all tasks before having to be asked additional times. Anticipate needs and fill them. Do you know what days garbage runs on? Are guest expected over the weekend?  Take out the garbage, clean your room and other rooms in the house, all without being asked. You may not initially agree with what your...

TL;DR in English: Be realistic. Always ask first. Honor your responsibilities. Be respectful. Take care of yourself. Take help. Be patient with your parents. Be true to you. Have a happy life. Pay it forward.

When you’re learning, you want to find a place that’s comfortable and far from traffic. A good place to start is a flat, smooth stretch of ground such as your driveway or your sidewalk. Those who don’t have space at home can practice in a parking lot or park.  Starting off on grass or smooth gravel helps since falls there hurt less. These surfaces make balancing and pedaling harder though. If you plan on practicing balance and pedaling on hills, find locations with gentle slopes. Check your local laws to see if it is legal to ride on sidewalks or other paths. Knee and elbow pads insulate joints and protect against scrapes, so they are recommended for all riders. Long-sleeved shirts and long pants also help protect against falls and can be combined with pads.  Avoid baggy pants and long skirts. These may get caught in the gears and tires, and may result in you falling down. Avoid open-toed shoes. These leave your feet exposed to the bike and ground. Helmets are recommended for beginners and experienced bike riders alike. You never know when an accident will happen. A broken bone can usually be fixed, but head trauma, common in bicycle accidents, leaves a lasting impact. Also, some areas have laws requiring riders to wear helmets.  Helmets are measured to fit the head. A good one fits tightly and comes down to an inch (two and a half centimeters) above your eyebrows. It will also have straps that keep your helmet tight while still letting you move your mouth. Commuter helmets are one common type. They are rounded, made of foam and plastic, and can be found online or in retail stores where bikes are available.  Road helmets are elongated and often have vents. They’re also made with foam and plastic but are popular on roads or in competitive racing. Seek them online or in retail stores.  Youth (age 10-15), child (age 5-10), and toddler (under 5) helmets are all smaller commuter or road helmets. Toddler helmets are the only ones with more foam. Mountain bike helmets and professional sports helmets come with visors...

TL;DR in English: Find a fitting location. Wear riding clothing. Put on a helmet. Go out during the day.

Brokers make their money charging you for each time you buy or sell a stock. You need to know this fee going in, but you also need to make it clear to your broker your acceptable level of trading. Some brokers will try to sucker in novice investors with high-commission stocks and multiple trades to make more money.  If you have a large account and plan on frequent or aggressive trades, you might look for a commission-based account, where the broker gets a percentage of your portfolio instead of a fee per trade. If your broker is making frequent changes and trades, known as "churning," they may be trying to raise their commission. Any trading that eats into your principal should be red-flagged. Your risk tolerance determines how bold of an investment the broker will take. Stocks are, in some way, gambling, and there are both safe bets and long-shots. Your broker will want guidance on where to steer the portfolio, based on your financial needs:  Younger investors should aim for high-risk investments. Stocks are a long game, and any busts now will more than likely be rectified with later booms. You have the time to afford the risk. Middle-aged investors should strike a balance between safe and risky stocks. Low-risk accounts will make safe bets with lower profits. These are great for older investments who could not deal with a sudden loss of money near retirement, or those who only want slow, reliable growth. There are two basic investment account options -- cash and cash/margin accounts. Cash accounts must have a deposit available to make a trade-- the money must be on hand. Margin accounts allow you to borrow money from the brokerage firm to purchase stocks. This loan is based on the expected profit from the stock.   Cash accounts are safer, but yield far less profit. You know exactly where all your money is, and whose money it is.  Margin accounts technically put you into debt, though interest rates are far lower than that at a bank. Because they make more money available to you, you stand to earn more money....

TL;DR in English: Expect to pay a fee for every transaction you make. Expect your broker to ask your acceptable level of risk. Expect most professional investors to choose margin accounts, not cash accounts. Expect the broker to determine your tax status based on your financial needs. Expect the meeting to end with a request for your investment money. Expect a professional broker often uses algorithm-based trading. Expect a professional to invest in things other than stock. Expect a broker to invest in "funds," or pre-made collections of stocks.

The ideal temperature for raw dehydration is 115 F (46 C) and below. You can also dehydrate sweet potato at 145 F (63 C). If your oven doesn’t go that low, you will have to keep a closer eye on the chips and adjust the dehydrating time. This can be used as a makeshift dehydrator that will allow air to circulate underneath the sweet potato pieces. Spread the sweet potato rounds out in a single layer on the cooling rack. Place the tray in the oven with the door ajar. Check on the chips every hour or so if your oven is hotter than 145 F (63 C). When they have reached the desired crispiness, remove them from the oven, cool, and store.  For an oven that goes as low as 115 F (46 C), dehydrate for 20 to 24 hours. For an oven that’s 145 F (63 C), dehydrate for about 12 hours. For an oven that doesn’t go lower than 175 F (79 C) or so, dehydrate for three to four hours. If they still need longer, continue dehydrating, but check on them every 15 minutes.

TL;DR in English: Preheat your oven to its lowest setting. Place a cooling rack into a baking tray. Dehydrate the chips. Finished.

Once you’ve decided to try your hand at property development, your first step will be to outline how you’ll put your  into action. Sit down and write out a short description of your business as you envision it and how it has the potential to benefit the place where you live. Then, make a list of the resources available to you, such as startup money and connections to local property owners.  A few important points worth considering include how much capital you have at your disposal, whether you’re capable of managing multiple properties yourself, and how you’re likely to fare given the current state of the real estate market. Will your property development business become your full-time job, or will it be a part-time enterprise meant to diversify your income? In order to make a living as a property developer, you’ll need to have a clearer objective in mind than “flip a property and make a lot of money.” A better approach is to start with a modest but focused plan—for example, “I want to buy the old Graystoke building and turn it into affordable student housing.” With a basic strategy in place, you’ll have a more concrete idea of what it will take to make it happen.  Keep your goals realistic when you’re first starting out and build your portfolio (and your reputation) one property at a time. Setting your sights too high could prove to be a costly mistake. The simplest way to break into the business is to buy a house, fix it up, and sell it. From there, you can move onto bigger, more expensive properties. It may be that suburban housing outside an up-and-coming industrial center is practically nonexistent, or that there’s a shortage of hip eateries around town. Anywhere that there’s a particular demand, there’s an opportunity for a profitable development. As a rule, the most successful projects are the ones that give people what they want.  Always take the population of the area you’re developing into account. It’s important to plan your property with your likely buyer or renter in mind. If you live in an area...

TL;DR in English: Draft a detailed business plan. Be specific about your goals. Consider your area’s real estate needs.

If you are still experiencing laryngitis symptoms after two weeks, it's best to seek medical attention. Your doctor will be able to determine if you are dealing with a severe case of laryngitis or a different condition. If you are dealing with any of the symptoms below, you should go see a doctor or medical professional as soon as possible:  Increasing pain Persistent fever Difficulty breathing Trouble swallowing Coughing up blood Difficulty managing your own saliva If you suspect your child has laryngitis, and he experiences any of the symptoms listed below, do not hesitate to seek medical attention. He might have a more serious respiratory condition such as croup.  Increased drooling Trouble swallowing or breathing Fever higher than 103°F (39.4°C) Muffled speech (also known as a hot potato voice) When he inhales, he makes a high-pitched breathing sound If you frequently suffer from laryngitis, it is advisable to talk with your doctor about this situation so she can determine the underlying cause and recommend a treatment plan. Chronic episodes of laryngitis might be a result of one of these medical conditions:  Sinus or allergy problems Bacterial or fungal infection Acid reflux, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) Cancer Vocal chord paralysis due to an injury, tumor, or stroke

TL;DR in English:


Ask for a thyroid check. Ask for a urine test.

Place the 2 edges that you’re going to seam together in close proximity—roughly 1–2 in (2.5–5.1 cm) apart. This will give you enough space to apply the 2-part epoxy to the edges, but also make it easier to squeeze the pieces together quickly. This also gives you the opportunity to take one more look at how well the 2 pieces match up. Buy a kit with rubber suction cups and metal turnbuckles (which look like very long bolts) that are intended for clamping countertop seams. For each pair of suction cups, thread a turnbuckle through the openings in the top by turning it clockwise. You want the suction cups to be spaced about 4–6 in (10–15 cm) apart on the turnbuckle so you’ll have room to work between and beneath them.  2 pairs of suction cups and 2 turnbuckles should be sufficient for most countertop seams, but you can use 3 or more for longer seams. You can also buy or rent a tool known as a “seam puller” or “seam setter” that uses vacuum pumps to pull and hold the granite pieces together. If you choose one of these, follow the instructions for proper use. Think of it as placing 2 or 3 “bridges” over the seam, with each turnbuckle serving as the bridge span and the suction cups as the bridge piers. Try to space the suction cups an equal distance from the seam—roughly 2–3 in (5.1–7.6 cm) each.  Make sure the suction cups stick well to the granite. Try moistening the underside of each cup with a damp fingertip if needed. After you apply the 2-part epoxy to the seam, you’ll tighten the turnbuckles to pull the pieces of granite tightly together.

TL;DR in English: Lay the 2 pieces of granite side-by-side. Thread turnbuckles through 2-3 pairs of suction cups. Stick each pair of suction cups on either side of the granite seam.

Weak Pokémon training will help you raise any low-level or weak Pokémon easily; for example if you have caught an Abra under level 16, (An Abra under level 16 only knows the move teleport, which isn't an offensive move.) or if you're trying to raise a Magikarp. (For Pokémon fans, this should go without saying.) Again, find a trainer or Pokémon to into battle. Once the battle screen has opened, stop. Once the battle screen has opened, don't attack or use an item on your weak Pokémon. All you have to do is switch it out right away for a Pokémon that can complete the battle. Even though your weak Pokémon didn't fight or make a move, it still earns experience points just for being in the battle.

TL;DR in English: Find a Pokémon that is weak or an extremely low level and place it the front of the roster. Go into the battle with the weak Pokémon at the front. Switch your weak Pokémon out for a strong Pokémon that can win the battle.

Leave 1/2" (1 cm or so) extra on all sides, stopping just below your second knuckle. This is the template for your finger puppet. You'll need two of your template (front and back) plus any extra bits. Wings for your butterfly? A nose for your elephant? A beak for your chicken? Ears for your rabbit? Get as intricately detailed as possible. If your brain isn't firing on all pistons at the moment, look up a few generic cartoons for detailing inspiration. Before you get to sewing the base of the puppet, sew on all the small, finer details. While you have your thread out, sew on a grin with a backstitch. A whip stitch will probably be best for adding your eyes/nose/beak/wings/general details. If sewing isn't your forte, you may be able to get around most of it with hot glue. But take care -- glue and felt isn't always pretty, especially if too much glue is used. Do a blanket stitch around the entire body; if you've added a piece that doesn't allow for this, switch to a running stitch. Now all you've got to do is put 'em on and get to creating. Unless you want to give your puppet 9 more friends, of course!

TL;DR in English: Trace your finger on a piece of paper. Cut out your felt pieces. Sew on the additions. Place the top and bottom of the body on top of each other and sew together.

Explain that a cause is an event or action that makes something happen; an effect or consequence is a thing that happens as a result of that cause. As your child gets older, add additional vocabulary. Words like “influence,” “results,” and “factors,” for example, as well as words that will help with cause and effect sentence construction: “therefore,” “consequently,” “thus,” and others. ” Reinforce the relationship between causes and effects by using the word “because” in conversation; it makes for better understanding for many kids. So, for example, say, “Your shoes are dirty because you stepped in the mud,” or “The house is cold because we left the windows open.” As your child grows, you can point out that the principle of cause and effect is significant in a number of ways. We try to discover the causes of things that are bad so that we can eliminate them and make the world better; we try to discover the causes of things that are good so that we can apply them and maximize the results. Once your child starts school, it’s important to emphasize the academic uses of cause and effect. Scientists use it all the time (What is causing global warming? Why did these plants die? What will happen if we mix vinegar and baking soda?), and so do historians (Why did the American colonies revolt? What happened after Cortes conquered the Aztecs?). A T map is a simple table with two columns. On one side, you can write causes; on the other, you can write effects. For example, on the left side, write “It is raining.” Have your child brainstorm possible consequences: it gets muddy, flowers grow, the school has indoor recess, there are traffic jams. Write those on the right side of the table. You can also use T maps for individual cause and effect relationships to illustrate language. So, in this case, you would write “It is raining” at the top, instead of on the left. Then, on the left, you’d write, “It gets muddy because it is raining.” On the right, you’d write, “It is raining, so it gets muddy.” This method teaches the two...

TL;DR in English: Teach your child the vocabulary of cause and effect. Use the word “because. Explain why cause and effect relationships are important. Make a T map. Play cause and effect games. Read books. Create a timeline. Teach analytical thinking.

Two symbols called the en dash and the em dash resemble the hyphen but are used for different purposes. En dashes ("–") are slightly longer than a hyphen, while em dashes ("—") are even longer. In informal writing, you can usually get away with using hyphens and dashes interchangeably, but in formal contexts, you'll want to keep the uses of each distinct, as it can be considered a grammar error to do so. Following these general rules can help you keep your use of hyphens and dashes distinct. Below are a few of the situations in which you'll need to use dashes:  Ranges of dates, numbers, times, and values (en dashes) Prefixes for words which don't usually have them (en dashes) Substituting for blank or missing content (em dashes) Abrupt sentence interruptions (em dashes) Punctuating a sentence with extra information (em dashes) En dashes are often used to express the idea that two or more words or numbers are connected by a range of values in between. For instance, in the sentence "We just delivered the Jan–Apr issue," the dash implies that the magazine is for January through April, not just January and April. Note that when using en dashes for ranges, you shouldn't put a space on either side of the dash. Here is an example of an en dash used to express a range:Would you please schedule me an appointment for 1:00–2:00 PM? In general cases, you shouldn't use any sort of punctuation mark for common prefixes like "pre-", "post-", "re-", and so on. However, when connecting this sort of prefix to a word like a proper noun, a complex phrase, or a word that would look awkward or cumbersome without some  sort of separating mark, it's acceptable to use an en dash. Obviously, however, en dashes shouldn't be used for words like "preselect" or "postgame" where the meaning is already clear. Here are a few examples of en dashes used to attach prefixes:The professor's degree in the pre–Cold War history of Russia qualified him to teach his course on Czar Nicholas II. Post–Andy Kaufman, the comedy landscape just didn't seem as...

TL;DR in English: Know when to use a dash instead of a hyphen. Use en dashes to describe ranges. Use en dashes to attach prefixes to awkward words or phrases. Use em dashes to punctuate a sentence. Use em dashes to show when a sentence cuts off. Use em dashes to substitute for missing information.

If you are concerned about your iodine levels and needs, ask for a check of your thyroid function. Iodine deficiencies can cause enlarged thyroid glands (goiter) and can often be corrected through dietary changes, medication, or iodine supplementation. Excess dietary iodine is secreted in the urine, so iodine levels can be easily assessed through urine checks; some health professionals may request a series of checks to get a more accurate representation of your average iodine levels. If you are deficient in urinary iodine, your health professional can recommend the best way to address the deficiency.

TL;DR in English:


Find the words "tell," "time" or "event. Write a story about something that happened to you. Begin with an introduction that tells the reader that you will tell a story. Write a narrative essay more loosely than you would other types of essays. End the essay by telling the reader what you learned from the experience.

Under "Choose a configuration:", you'll see three options: Microsoft Windows, Non-Microsoft, and Custom. These options give you different choices for how to assign access to the programs on your computer. To choose your own rules, select Custom. In this menu, you'll see a list of commonly-used programs. To the right of each is a check box. Uncheck each box to restrict access to the corresponding program. Once a box is unchecked, the program will cease to appear in the Start menu and most other places where it previously would have appeared. However, this will not uninstall the program. In the Program Access menu, you can also choose which of the programs that you do have enabled will be your default. To do this, simply click the circular "bubble" to the left of the appropriate program. A default program is the program that Windows will automatically use for reading certain types of files. For instance, if you have Windows Media Player set as your default media player, if you double click a song or movie on your computer, it will launch in Windows Media Player. The "OK" button is at the bottom of the window next to the "Cancel" and "Help" buttons. Your changes will take place immediately. If at any point you want to make a program that you've disallowed accessible again, simply return to the Program Access menu and re-check its box. Click "OK" to re-save your changes.

TL;DR in English: Click on the "Custom" option. Uncheck the "Enable access to this program" boxes to disallow programs. Click the bubbles to set default programs. Click "OK" to save your changes. Re-check the boxes to allow access to programs.

You can let it air-dry or use a blow drier. Your hair should be completely dry before you begin curling. Avoid adding products at this point. Flat irons are most effective on hair that is clean and smooth. Make the part where you want it in the finished style. It can be 1- to 2-inches wide. Start from the front of your head or in the back, whichever is easiest for you. If you want your curls to start higher, place the iron closer to the roots.  You should be holding the flat iron vertically, with the tip pointing upwards. Your flat iron needs to be thin (think 1-2 inches) with a rounded barrel. The heat from the iron heats up the barrel just enough to curl your hair. Make just one twist. Hold the twist you made in the previous step and gradually pass the rest of your hair through it.  You may need to experiment with how slowly you go here. Holding the flat iron longer at the top ensures a full curl, rather than just curls at the ends. The longer you hold, the more curl you'll get. Don't open the iron at any point here: it should remain clamped shut. Work in small sections. Let your hair cool completely so that it is not warm to the touch. Then, loosen the curls if you like, or keep them tighter. Add volume and definition by warming a small amount of product in your palms and working it through your curls with your fingertips.

TL;DR in English: Wash and dry your hair. Part your hair and comb out any tangles. Grasp a small section of hair. Open a heated flat iron and place it about 3/4 of the way up the strand. Close the flat iron and twist away from your face. Slowly draw the iron downwards to the ends. Repeat Steps 3-6 with the rest of your hair. Run a pick or your fingers through your hair. Add a bit of pomade or wax to finish.

Routines are important for people trying to cope with, or get rid of depression and anxiety.  Having a daily routine which you follow can be a big help. The reason for this is because a routine gives you something to focus on and look forward to. When we are left with no concrete plans we find that it may be easier to wander and procrastinate. Try to get up at the same time every day, eat a healthy breakfast and follow daily routines. These routines can be as simple as brushing your teeth, or more involved like planning out a whole day. You can also incorporate time just for you into your daily routine. Maybe you find it helpful to go for a fifteen-minute walk every day after lunch. If you are on medication, make sure to take it at the same time each day. While having a good diet is important for fighting depression and anxiety, certain foods are a great natural resource to boost your mood.For example:  Cherry tomatoes are a great addition to your salad. These little tomatoes contain a component called lycopene which has antioxidants that are responsible for enhancing your mood. Instead of iceberg lettuce in your salad, try spinach. Spinach is full of iron and folic acid which boosts your immunity by buffing up your red blood cells. Drink green tea and add honey. Honey is a great sugar substitute that contains kaempferol and quercetin which improve brain health. For a healthy, lean meat try turkey. Turkey has tryptophan which makes you happy and provides a great source of protein. . When you suffer from anxiety and depression it’s easy to feel like the world is spinning around you and too overwhelming. Meditation is a perfect natural combatant to these feelings.   Whether you do it for an hour a day or five minutes, breathing and clearing your mind can help rid you of bad feelings. You don’t have to sit in a complicated position on the floor and say “Ohm” over and over; though you may find that comforting. Just find a quiet place where you can be comfortable and focus on your breathing. Practice breathing in...

TL;DR in English: Get into a routine. Eat happy, healthy foods. Practice meditation Get more exposure to Vitamin D.

Lean towards your partner to make it easier for you to unhook your leg from the back of the chair. Be firm, but not too rough. Push your chest closer to your partner while pushing your butt and back out for balance. Slowly push back on their shoulders until your feet are firmly planted in standing position and you've found your balance. Don't leave the chair like you're walking out to a business meeting. Continue to work your hips and run your hands across your body as you remove yourself from the chair. Once you're off -- stay hot and prepare for whatever happens next.

" Narrative prompts ask you to tell a story, usually about yourself. You may also see the words "Describe" or "write about." For example, a narrative prompt might look like this: "Talk about a time when you experienced friendship" or "Describe a moment when you showed courage." You'll want to gear the narrative you tell to answer the prompt. You will often want to write about a moment that taught you a lesson or had an impact on your life. Write in first person. Tell the story as yourself, using "I" and "me." Your introduction provides the setting and context for your narrative. Let the reader know what you will be writing about, who the major "characters" are, and the purpose of your narrative. This purpose is your thesis statement. A narrative thesis statement may offer the lesson you learned or talk about the impact of the moment on your life, such as "The most memorable moment in which I showed courage happened in seventh grade." It could also identify a theme that connects your story to a greater theme, such as "Most people do not know how courageous they can be until they're faced with danger. This was true for me, too." Use description, metaphor, anecdotes, dialogue and other literary devices. You may want to structure your essay chronologically to show the development of the lesson over time. This is usually the clearest way to structure your essay. Use words such as "then," "next," and "finally" to show your progress. This is where you come back to the thesis you gave in the beginning. What did you learn? How has the experience changed you in some way?

Most elements can naturally occur in multiple forms, or isotopes. The mass number for each isotope is the sum of numbers of protons and neutrons in the nucleus. Each proton and each neutron weigh 1 atomic mass unit (amu). The only difference between two isotopes of the same element is the number of neutrons per atom, which affects the atom's mass. However, the element always has the same number of protons.  The average atomic mass of the element takes the variations of the number of neutrons into account, and tells you the average mass per atom in a typical sample of that element. For example, the element silver (Ag) has two naturally occurring isotopes: Ag-107 and Ag-109 (or 107Ag and 109Ag). Isotopes are named after the "mass number," or the sum of protons and neutrons in one atom. This means Ag-109 has two more neutrons per atom than Ag-107, giving it slightly more mass. You'll need two pieces of information for each isotope, which you can look up in a reference book or an online source such as webelements.com. The first is the atomic mass, or the mass of one atom of each isotope. Isotopes with more neutrons have more mass.  For example, the silver isotope Ag-107 has an atomic mass of 106.90509 amu (atomic mass units). The isotope Ag-109 is slightly heavier with a mass of 108.90470. The last couple decimal places might be slightly different in different sources. Don't include any numbers in parentheses after the mass. The abundance tells you how common the isotope is, as a percentage of all atoms of the element. Each isotope contributes proportionally to its abundance (the more abundant the isotope, the more it will contribute to the average atomic mass). You can find this in the same source you found the mass. The abundances of all isotopes should add up to 100% (though it might be slightly off due to rounding errors).  The isotope Ag-107 has an abundance of 51.86%. Ag-109 is slightly less common with an abundance of 48.14%. This means that a typical sample of silver is 51.86% Ag-107 and 48.14% Ag-109....

TL;DR in English: Understand isotopes and atomic masses. Look up the mass of each isotope. Write down the abundance of each isotope. Turn your abundance percentages into decimals. Find the weighted average of the atomic mass of its stable isotopes.
###
Our normal counting system is called decimal, or "base ten." We have ten different symbols for writing numbers, ranging from 0 to 9. Binary is a "base two" system, using only the symbols 0 and 1. If a binary number ends in 0, you can count one higher by changing this to a 1. We can use this to count the first two numbers just as you would expect:  0 = zero 1 = one For higher numbers, you can ignore the earlier digits of the number. 1010 + 1 = 1011. Now we have "1" for one, but we've already run out of symbols! In order to count to two, we need to write another digit. Add a "1" to the front of the number, and "reset" all the other digits to 0.  0 = zero 1 = one 10 = two This is the same rule we use in decimal when we run out of symbols (9 + 1 = 10). It just happens a lot more often in binary because we run out of symbols sooner. These rules will get you as far as the number five. See if you can do it yourself, then check your work:  0 = zero 1 = one 10 = two 11 = three 100 = four 101 = five Now we need to solve five + one in decimal, or 101 + 1. The key here is to ignore the first digit. Just add the 1 + 1 at the end to get 10. (Remember, this is how you write "two".) Now restore the first digit and you get: 110 = six There are no new rules you need to learn. Try it yourself, then check your work with this list:  110 = six 111 = seven 1000 = eight 1001 = nine 1010 = ten Do you see that ten (1010) doesn't look like a "special" number in binary? Eight (1000) is much more important now, because it equals 2 x 2 x 2. Keep multiplying by two to find other important numbers like sixteen (10000) and thirty-two (100000). Now you know everything you need to count in binary. If you're ever confused about what comes next, just work out what happens to the last digits. Here are a few examples to help you out:  twelve plus one = 1100 + 1 = 1101 (0 + 1 = 1, and the other digits stay the same.) fifteen plus one = 1111 + 1 = 10000 = sixteen (We've run out of symbols, so we reset to 0 and write a 1 at the start.) forty-five...

TL;DR in English: Learn what binary means. Add one by changing the last 0 into a 1. Write another digit if all the numbers are one. Use these rules to count to five. Count to six. Count to ten. Notice when new digits get added. Practice with higher numbers.

Indica cannabis strains make the best and most effective Rick Simpson oils. When you've added all of your cannabis to the bucket, pour in 1 gallon (3.8 l) of isopropyl alcohol.  Break up any larger chunks of cannabis with your wooden spoon before you add the isopropyl alcohol. Make sure your bucket can hold at least 2–3 gallons (7.6–11.4 l). Crush the cannabis with your wooden spoon after you've added the isopropyl alcohol. Continue stirring in circular motions for about 3 minutes or until most of the cannabis dissolves. At least 80% of the cannabis should dissolve into the mixture. Transfer the cannabis to a bowl and let it sit for about a minute. If no cheesecloths are available, coffee strainers can be used as a substitute. Add 1 gallon (3.8 l) more of isopropyl alcohol to the bucket and stir the mixture until at least 80% of the cannabis has dissolved again. Save and store the drained alcohol in the bucket. When your plant material is completely separated, throw it away. Pour your drained alcohol into the bucket with the rest of your solvent. Discard the leftover cannabis material after you've extracted the isopropyl alcohol.

TL;DR in English: Place 1 lb (16 oz) of dried cannabis and 1 US gal (3.8 l) of isopropyl alcohol in a bucket. Stir the cannabis and isopropyl alcohol thoroughly. Drain the solvent from the dissolved cannabis using a cheesecloth. Stir the remaining cannabis and 1 US gal (3.8 l) of isopropyl alcohol together.

This means "available" in all senses of the word -- single being the most obvious definition. The person should not only be single, but he or she shouldn't be recovering from the end of a devastating break-up, dealing with the loss of a loved one, or so busy studying that he or she practically lives in the library. This person should be feeling fun, emotionally stable, and up for anything -- especially hooking up with you. Friends with benefits relationships often end because one person starts falling for the other. So, unless you want to date the person, or you don't care if the person gets really hurt, you should avoid someone who will get attached. How do you know who will get too attached and who won't? Well, you can't figure this out with 100% certainty, but there are a few clues that the person may get too attached:  If you've heard this person described as "clingy," whether it's by friends or past significant others, then you may have a problem. If the person doesn't have a lot of friends, interests, or a lot going on, then he or she may have nothing better to do than to spend a lot of time with you. If you know that this person has really liked you in the past, then it's better to avoid it. If you know the person has a harmless crush on you, then that's perfect. Key word -- like, not really really like. This should be someone who you think is cute and fun to be around -- you should like this person just as much as you like spending a day at the beach with your friends. If you're going to spend a lot of time with that person, then you should feel a baseline of affection -- just nothing too serious.  Pick someone you already like, but not someone you would normally date. Go out of your comfort zone and remember that you're looking for a hot hook up partner, not your future husband or wife. If you pick someone you might date, then it's more likely that you'd end up falling for that person. You should have some natural chemistry with this person. That doesn't mean you want to stay up for hours talking...

TL;DR in English: Pick someone who is available. Pick someone who won't get too attached. Pick someone you already like. Pick someone outside your social or work circle. Pick someone with experience.

Several stems, each with multiple sets of leaves, should have developed. Gently tug at the base of the center stem to determine if it feels sturdy. If so, tip the pot on its side, slip a short trowel into soil next to the side, and slide the pot away to reveal the soil beneath. If you can see white, even roots that fill the entire pot, the plant is ready to be moved to the garden. If not, you should wait a few more days or weeks. An east facing spot works best. Depending on the variety, you may need a location that receives shade by the afternoon. Varieties with lighter blossoms or double blossoms tend to need more shade, but bright red, single blossoms can stand a little more sunlight. Dig a hole that is 6 inches (15.24 cm) deeper than the depth of the fuchsia's current container and just a little bit wider. In the hole, add compost and garden-grade manure, both of which are available at garden and farm supply stores. These elements improve the quality of the soil. Fill 1/4 to 1/2 of the hole with these elements. Slide it out of it current container and place it, root side down, into the hole. Pack more compost and manure into the gap around the newly planted root ball.

TL;DR in English: Transplant fuchsias once a sturdy root ball develops. Choose a location that receives a decent amount of morning sun. Prepare the soil. Place the fuchsia into the hole.

Before you begin building a fire, it’s important to verify that fires are allowed in the area. Look around your campsite for posted signs, which will usually inform you if fires aren’t permitted. You can also ask a ranger or the campsite’s host if fires are allowed.  Don’t assume that a campfire is permitted just because there’s a fire ring at your campsite. It may be intended for use with a camping stove but not an open flame. In some cases, there may be fire restrictions in place, which limit the types of fires that you are permitted to light. Make sure you understand what materials you’re allowed to use for your fire. Campfires may not be permitted at certain altitudes, in areas that are experiencing droughts and are extremely dry, or at times when the winds are very strong. Some campsites have specific fire rings designed for building a fire. However, if you’re camping in an area that doesn’t have a fire ring, it’s important to choose the right spot for the fire. Make sure that the site is at least 15-feet from tents, shrubs, trees, and any other flammable objects.  If your campsite has a fire ring, there may be ashes in it from a previous fire. Push them to the outside of the ring to make room for your fire. If the ashes are completely cold, you can also place them in a plastic bag so can dispose of them properly later. Make sure the spot that you choose is shielded from wind gusts, which can not only make it more difficult to light but can help spread the fire if the flames get too large. It’s best to build a campfire on bare dirt, so you may need to clear the spot you’ve chosen. Remove any dead grass, leaves, or other vegetation to create an 8- to 10-foot area of bare soil for the fire. Next, dig down into the dirt for several inches to create a pit to contain the fire.  Keep the removed dirt close to the fire. You can use it to help smother the flames in case of an emergency. You can place the removed dirt in a mounded ring around your fire pit to serve as a firewall. Setting large rocks around the...

TL;DR in English: Make sure campfires are permitted. Choose a spot for the fire. Clear and dig out the spot.

Then pinch the corners until you have enough material to form a knot. Gather the material in front of your body and make a simple knot. Then knot a second time to secure.

TL;DR in English: Hold the sarong horizontally. Take a corner of the sarong in each hand. Make a knot.

Easing into a relationship is about ensuring that there is plenty of space for the two of you to get to know one another and trust that you're right for one another. If you try too soon to "make" something more out of your relationship than it already is, premature pushiness can scare them away and spoil what is 'there' to be a good thing. Instead, be patient and realize that it takes time to nurture a solid and enduring relationship. If you want to be a good girlfriend, avoid the following things:  Don't push them to classify your relationship too soon. You don't have to have the label girlfriend or boyfriend after a couple of dates; this risks causing them to feel that the decision wasn't their own. Be patient and let them make up their own mind as to when the definitions, like going steady, exclusive relationship, serious dating etc start being bandied about. If the two of you are compatible, your relationship will develop soon enough. Don't start talking about marriage or starting a family before you've even met their close friends and parents. Raising such issues prematurely can create tension from the outset and may stall or even bring to an end an otherwise productive and caring relationship. Don't feel the need to show off or impress them. You don't need to prove anything to them; you simply need to be present and engaged in listening, being attentive and sharing your interests. While being honest to your partner is very important, to the point of being paramount, it is equally important that you are honest with yourself. If you overreact or make a mistake, you can acknowledge your error and apologize. If you're feeling vulnerable or upset, you can sort through your feelings and verbalize them to them in a non-accusing way.  And the most important thing here is that you will be open about your feelings as much as possible. For example, if they do or say something that bothers you, be open about how it impacts you, without being accusing or asking them to change. If you establish solid lines of...

TL;DR in English: Don't be too open in the very early days. Be honest. Speak your mind. Be yourself

You and your partner should both be on the same page about what the goal is. It's a good idea to write out your goal, then document any compromises that the two of you reach. For example, you might set a goal to resolve a disagreement about how much time to spend together on weekends. You could write out a schedule showing when you'll hang out versus when you'll each have time to do other activities. A new or favorite activity will help remind both of you why you're in the relationship to begin with.

TL;DR in English: Set a goal for the argument, along with your boyfriend. Plan to do something fun together after the talk.

Since your avocado is open and vulnerable to the world, keep it from turning brown and too mushy with an acidic agent like lemon juice. You want it to ripen, not ruin. Place the two halves back together and wrap it in plastic wrap as if it were whole. Place it in the refrigerator. If you don't have plastic wrap, use an airtight, resealable container. The length of time it needs to ripen all depends on how far along your avocado was in the process. Take it out and prod it -- when it becomes soft and seems edible, give it a taste test. If it's not quite there, put it back in.

Hold your four dominant fingers together and hit the head of the tambourine in the top or bottom third of the tambourine. Play a simple standard strike to whatever beat or rhythm the accompanying music requires. Striking the tambourine in the center usually produces a muddled tone. Hold the tambourine in your non-dominant hand and hit the head with a snare drumstick. Use more pressure while you hit the head for a louder sound and vice versa for softer. Hold the tambourine at a slight angle from horizontal, and curl your four dominant fingers into a fist. Press your thumb against the tambourine's head and drag it in a circular motion. This should cause the zils, or metal cymbals, to make a sustained jingling sound. Thumb rolls are ideal for short jingling sounds but, if you need something longer than a few seconds, a shake roll will work better. Hold the tambourine vertically in front of you and twist it back and forth with your non-dominant hand. Shake it as quickly or as slowly as you want depending on the rhythm you're trying to achieve.

TL;DR in English: Try a standard strike. Beat a snare drumstick against the tambourine for a louder sound. Do a thumb roll for a continuous sound instead of a rhythm. Use a shake roll for longer periods of time than a thumb roll.

Being around positive people breeds positivity within you. What’s more, no matter what you go through in life, a strong support group can help keep you grounded and hopeful. When you are around people who have a healthy outlook, this increases your chances of being happy and successful.  Seek out the positive influencers in your life. These are the people who practice gratitude and actively seek out joy in everyday life. Discontinue relationships or distance yourself from negative influencers. These are the people who dwell on problems or burdens. They often don’t laugh or smile and their sour moods may be contagious. If you believe there is a reason for your life, a higher purpose, then getting in touch with your spiritual side may offer protective factors against hard times.  Individuals who describe themselves as spiritual or religious often make healthier lifestyle choices in terms of diet, avoiding risk behaviors like driving without a seat belt, and refraining from smoking, drinking, or using drugs. What’s more, spirituality also provides us with a social support system that encourages us and helps relieve stress.  Spirituality doesn't have to be related to organized religion or philosophy; it can mean whatever you want it to mean. Develop your spirituality by practicing forgiveness, engaging in self-reflection, using nature and art to get in touch with a higher power, and practicing self-compassion. Connecting with others can produce positive outcomes on both sides when connections are forged through charity. Helping others can improve our satisfaction with life, give us a sense of purpose, enhance feelings of self-efficacy, reduce stress, and lift our moods. Not sure how you can help out?

Contrary to popular misconceptions, dreadlocks require washing just as much as other hairstyles. You should aim to shampoo and roll your dreadlocks every three or four days when they're new. Once they've fully locked up, you can get by washing them once a week, or more often depending on your hair type and the amount of oil your scalp tends to produce.  Most people who wear dreadlocks wash them at least once a week. If you have particularly oily hair, or if you exercise, work outside, get dirty or sweat a lot, you may benefit from more frequent washings.  You can still bathe regularly between washings without having to shampoo your locks. Dreadlocks put a lot of weight on the scalp as they get heavier and pull. It's essential that you keep your scalp clean and moisturized in addition to your locks themselves. Whenever you're cleaning your locks, take a few moments to massage your scalp vigorously with your fingertips. This promotes proper blood flow and will strengthen the follicles, meaning you won't have to worry about your locks becoming brittle or falling out.  Itching and discomfort can be a sign that your scalp or roots are in poor condition. As your hair grows, keep your dreadlocks waxed and twisted to tighten up the new growth close to the scalp. Use a couple drops of tea tree, peppermint or rosemary oil along with your shampoo, or treat your locks with them separately. Essential oils moisturize, cut down on itchiness and irritation around the scalp and leave your hair smelling pleasant. They are far preferable to perfumes, spray-in fragrances and scented cleansers, as they won't damage your locks or leave behind any residue. Just a hint of essential oils can combat the “dirty hair” smell that naturally accumulates on thick dreadlocks. Conditioners are designed to soften and detangle hair, which is the last thing you want if you have a head full of dreads. In general, there should be no reason to condition your dreadlocks. You should also be cautious about any other products that contain oils, waxes...

TL;DR in English: Wash your dreadlocks regularly. Take care of your scalp. Freshen your locks with essential oils. Avoid conditioners and similar products.

If your grass is close-clipped, every stick has been picked up, and there's not a muddy spot to be found, bees will have trouble finding a home in your yard, no matter how many wildflowers you plant. Bees are wild creatures who need a wild habitat to thrive. If you want them to take up residence in your yard, do the following:  Allow for some open, meadow-like spaces in your yard and garden. Leave an area un-mowed and let wild clover grow. If you don't have clover in your yard, scatter some white clover seed over the area in the fall. Leave a small brush pile and some leaves lying where they fell. Bees will use them to make a home. Leave patches of exposed dirt that turn to mud when it rains. Some bees live underground and will thank you for access to the mud they need. Bees have trouble using birdbaths, because they aren't able to land in deep water. They need an island to land on so they can walk to the edge and take a drink or a bath without drowning. To make a bee bath, take a wide, shallow dish or tray and line the edges with flat rocks. Pour water over the rocks and into the bottom of the tray. Place it in your garden near the flowers that attract the most bees. The bees will be able to land on the rocks and access the water. Rotting vegetation and stumps are great shelters for bees. More and more backyard gardeners are installing hives and other bee shelters to provide nesting spots for bees. If you're serious about attracting bees to your yard and helping them thrive, this option might be something to consider. You can start by building a small bee "house" using the following method:  Take a small wooden box and paint it a bright color, preferably white, yellow, bright blue or purple. Use organic paint so the bees won't get sick.  Layer the box with nesting tubes, standing them upright. You can buy them from a garden store or make your own by rolling brown craft paper around a pencil, pinching off the end and holding it together with tape, leaving the ends open. Fill the box to the top with these...

TL;DR in English: Let it get a little wild. Make a bee bath. Provide a bee shelter. Stop using pesticides of any kind. Plant flowering trees to attract bees.

The right product for you will depend on your needs.  For instance, some dye-removal and leather cleaning products are intended for light-colored leather.  Other products are meant only for suede, while others are meant only for automobile leather. Dye removal products are designed to remove dye and ink stains from leather.  They might be able to clean dye stains caused by blue jeans dye, newspaper print, fresh ballpoint ink, paint, shoe polish, and permanent marker from leather. Leather is a sensitive material.  In order to avoid damaging your leather, read manufacturer directions carefully before utilizing any cleaning product on your leather.  Do not use your leather cleaning product in a way that is not recommended.  All products intended to remove dye from leather are a bit different.  It is therefore impossible to give specific directions regarding use.  Generally, though, you’ll need to apply a bit of the cleaning product to a rag, then wipe the dye away using the rag. Some products might direct you to scrub the leather with steel wool, a horsehair brush, or sandpaper after applying the dye-removal product. Before you commit to a particular dye removal product, test it on your leather object in an out-of-sight spot.  For instance, if you’re cleaning a leather jacket, don’t wipe the product across the arms and back of the jacket.  If the cleaning product has an adverse reaction with your leather jacket, you will ruin the whole jacket. Instead, test the cleaning product on a small portion of the jacket that will not be regularly seen.  For example, you might wipe the product on a small area on the inside of the jacket and observe its effect.

TL;DR in English: Select the right product. Follow the manufacturer directions. Test the product.

Place clams on a clean, dry towel, and shuffle through them loosely. Discard any that look abnormal or are open, in the outside trash, otherwise their stench will quickly overpower. . Have something like a bucket, tub, or sink in which to soak the clams. The soaking process will clean the clams prior to cooking.  Make a weak brine solution – 1/3 cup of non-iodized salt (iodine will kill clams) to one gallon (3.7 liters) of water should work. Soak clams in the brine for about fifteen minutes, to remove all grit from inside and outside the clam. Fresh water works decently as well. Pour the clams into a strainer, and hold under a stream of cold water. Scrub thoroughly with a metal brush. Place clams back on the towel you had them on earlier. Rub them dry gently to remove any final grit. For every pound (453g) of clams, add half a cup of water. Layer the clams into the cooking container with the water (or white wine). Cover the cooking container and place over high heat. Here, you can choose to add the aromatic ingredients listed above. They are not needed, but if you prefer more flavorful clams, add the extra ingredients, or even just some of them. Keep in mind that the amounts are for three pounds (1.3kg) of clam, so you may need to add or subtract amounts depending on how many clams you have.  If you do chose to add them, this is the moment to do so. the clams. Allow the clams enough time to open their shells - this will be indicated by a burst of steam and popped-open shells, anywhere from 2–3 minutes to 5-10 minutes, depending on the type of clams. If some don't open in this time, discard them as they probably were already dead. Cook Stephanie Alexander even suggests giving the ones that do not open another go at steaming because sometimes the clams have a very tight and vigorous hold on the shell (be sure to remove those that have already opened as they're ready). Remove the open clams from the kettle or other container and place them in a dish, possibly with a small amount of the broth around them. Lemon...
