There is no one universal sign for lying, otherwise no one would be able to lie successfully! Someone's body language is the result of their current situation, energy level, personality, confidence, and intimacy with you.  There are many behaviors that are commonly associated with lying, which then people avoid doing while they are lying to avoid getting caught. For example, it is often believed that looking down is a sign of lying, and so many liars avoid looking down when lying. Some people develop particular ticks, habits, or responses for certain emotions or situations they're in. If you know these, you might be able to catch a lie. For example, if you know your son usually smiles when he lies, you can use that body language as an indicator. If you know someone's ticks and habits, it is likely that the person knows them too. Most people compensate to avoid body language that might be a cue that someone is lying. For example, if you and your son both know that he usually smiles when lying, your son might avoid smiling during a lie to mislead you. Though there are no universal signs of lies, there are general trends of body language that indicate lying. People who are lying are generally more tense: their pupils dilate, and they are more likely to fidget with their bodies. People who are lying also generally try to look like they're indifferent.  However, someone may have be fidgeting or look indifferent, and not be lying The patterns of body language vary wildly from person to person Pupil dilation can happen for a number of reasons other than lying Body language is a “nonverbal channel,” or a way through which you can receive messages from other people that does not involve words or speaking. There are three main channels: kinesics (facial expressions, eye contact, and body language), haptics (touch), and proxemics (personal space).  Generally speaking, you are going to be the most skilled at understanding kinesics, and then proxemics, and then touch.  People are usually better at understanding pleasant...


Rejuvenate an overgrown, neglected shrub with sparse foliage. Coppice your shrub in late winter to increase its chances of recovering. Cut the canes to 4 to 6 in (10 to 15 cm) above ground level. Fertilize your shrub in the early spring after coppicing. Allow at least 1 growing season for your shrub to recover.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If your shrub is old, has thick branches without leaves, or doesn’t produce flowers, your best option is probably the rejuvenation method. Rejuvenation pruning, or coppicing, involves cutting all of the canes down to the crown to encourage new growth. While it might seem drastic, mock orange shrubs usually tolerate coppicing. Within a year, your shrub should grow back to a more attractive size and shape. Mock orange shrubs go dormant in the winter, and you won’t shock the plant as much if you coppice during dormancy. While you could try to rejuvenate it immediately after its flowers fade, there’s a higher risk that it won’t recover. Keep in mind the flowers of mock orange shrubs bloom on old wood. If you coppice in the winter, your shrub won’t bloom the following growing season. The technique is similar to annual renewal pruning, but you’ll cut back all of the canes instead of one-third of them. Use your lopping shears to cut each cane down to a few inches above the crown. When you’re finished, cut the canes up so they’ll fit in a lawn bag or in your compost heap. If you coppice in winter, your shrub is dormant and doesn't need any attention until spring. In the early spring, begin watering whenever the soil dries out, and apply a liquid fertilizer. It’s wise to test your soil so you know exactly what nutrients to provide.  For example, suppose your soil has lots of phosphorus (P) and potassium (K), but is low in nitrogen (N). You’d check the N-P-K ratios on fertilizer labels, and go with a product with a higher N value, such as 14-7-7. If you don't need to correct a nutrient deficiency, choose a fertilizer labeled for shrubs and trees with an N-P-K ratio of 3-1-2 or 3-1-1, such as 15-5-10 or 15-5-5.  Apply fertilizer at the start of the growing season according to your product’s instructions. As a rule of thumb, apply about 4  fl oz (120 mL) of liquid fertilizer diluted in 1 US gal (3.8 L) of water. To meet your recovering shrub’s high nutrient needs, add well-matured compost or a slow-release pellet...


Relax and be yourself. Build your confidence with practice. If necessary, (temporarily) retreat to the web. Quit while you’re ahead.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

People often want to be witty because they think they aren’t good conversationalists. But insecurity is the enemy of wit.  Good delivery often is the difference between a comment eliciting a laugh and falling flat. If you seem nervous or timid, your witty comment will not come across as well.  It’s important to remember that your perception of yourself is often inaccurate. You’re probably not as awkward as you imagine, and by letting yourself feel insecure, you’re actually hampering your ability to be witty. Paradoxically, the only way to overcome insecurity in conversation is to have more conversations! The key is engaging in low-stakes interactions (banter with a barista while you're waiting for your latte) as often as possible so that in high-stakes conversations (talking with the coworker you'd like to ask out) you're able to be witty. If face-to-face interactions make you nervous, try practicing your stories, puns, and other newly developed wit skills on social networking websites. Giving yourself a chance to work on your wit when you have more time to think might help you build your confidence so that you can be more relaxed during in-person interactions. As you become more confident, you’ll not only be able to move on when an attempt at wit falls flat, you’ll also know when to stop trying to be witty.  Shakespeare said “Brevity is the soul of wit.” Once you believe you’re witty, you won’t feel the need to try to make every comment witty — an effort that is bound to annoy or bore your conversation partner. Likewise, as you gain more confidence in your wit, you’ll learn when to quit. It’s always best to end a conversation on a high note.


Relax and do nothing.

Relax and release your facial muscles. Select a focus point on the camera. Position your chin, neck, and shoulders. Squint slightly. Smize with confidence.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before smizing, smiling with your eyes, calm yourself and relax your facial muscles. Take deep breaths to center yourself and quell your nerves. Enhance your calm demeanor by Intentionally release the muscles in your face one by one. Smooth out the wrinkles in your forehead and release your clenched jaw. As you relax, you will feel more comfortable and confident in front of the camera. When smizing, it is essential that your eyes are full of life and energy. Open your eyes wide and search the camera for a focal point. You may choose to focus on the lens, a logo, or a specific button. By connecting with the camera, you will generate a twinkle in your eyes and a sense of vibrancy in your face. Staring off into the distance can cause you to look bored and lifeless. Posture is the key to an exceptional picture and a memorizing smize. Pull your shoulder down as you extend your neck and head up. Once your neck is elongated, bring your head forward and lower your chin slightly. This will result in an elegant posture and an exquisite look. When smizing, the alluring look rests in the squint of your eyes. In order to keep your forehead wrinkle free, you must squint from below not above. As you pull up the muscles below your eyes, consciously strive to relax your brow and forehead. This will produce a mysterious, enticing glint in your eyes. To pull of a convincing smize, you must exude confidence. As you continue to squint, transform your relaxed lips into a glorious natural smile. Maintain your elegant body position and sustain eye contact with the camera. Push aside your insecurities and tell yourself that you are powerful and full of confidence.


Relax and take some time alone. Self-soothe. Re-frame the situation. Let out frustration.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Meditate, shop or dance. Do something that you enjoy to take your mind off of everything. Do whatever you have to do to make yourself feel better. You are more likely to find a worthwhile solution while doing something you enjoy or having fun. It sounds counter-intuitive, but creative solutions often come out of doing something fun even if is not related to the task at hand. Relating back to the example above, you should remove yourself from the situation. You don't want to be around people who know your secret. Retreat. Remove yourself from the situation. Go do something relaxing. Avoid self-blame. Don’t assume that everything is all your fault and you always mess things up. Try not over generalize with statements like, “This always happens to me.” Overgeneralizing leads to depression.  Everyone makes mistakes and has accidents. Bad things happen to everyone. Blaming yourself for everything that has occurred paralyzes you from moving forward. This makes it harder for you to let go and move on with your healing.  If we continue with the previous example, don't beat yourself up for telling your "big mouth" friend your secret. Instead of thinking, "I'm so stupid. Why did I do that?" Think, "Well, I made a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes. I will remember not to share any more secrets with my friend". If you believe that your friend has betrayed you, and you have not received an apology, re-frame the incident so that the blame is not placed on you. It’s imperative that you manage your own feelings about the situation in a way that is healthy for you so that you can move forward. Re-framing also helps you work toward forgiveness. For instance, instead of thinking that it's all your fault, think about how you now realize that your friend talks a lot and can't keep secrets. Although you know that now, you didn't know it at the time when you shared your secret. You made the best decision that you could at the time. If you could choose again, you would do it differently. For many people, the best way to let out...


Relax for candid photos. Make your posed photos not feel too forced. Decide whether or not you want to have a first look. Leave more time for posed photos than you think you need. Keep a “to take” list with you, just in case. Ask people to unplug during your ceremony.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When it comes to your big day, you may not feel like you can be very relaxed, but you’ll have to do your best to sit back and enjoy the ride if you want to have the most photogenic photos out there. If you know the photographer is taking pictures of you, try not to get self-conscious and to live in the moment, making sure to laugh, talk to your guests, dance, and have the best night of your life. Remind yourself that not every photo has to be perfect and since you’ll have so many photos to choose from, you can just relax and know that your best self will be captured.  If you try too hard to grab your new spouse and look like you’re having the time of your life, it’ll look staged. Instead, try to get the idea of your photographer out of your head. Pretend like you’re just having the time of your life at another friend’s wedding. When you do take your posed photos, try to act as natural as you can with them. You don’t have to look overly eager or happy, but just work on looking like yourself. If you’re taking a silly pose, then have fun with it, and don’t feel the need to look all serious and married-like all the time. This is your day, and if you look like you’re having a good time, it’ll come through in the photos. If you try too hard with the posed photos, they’ll feel forced. Make sure to pick poses you’re comfortable with so you don’t look too obviously out of your element. If you think the romantic photos are too mushy and not you at all, then say something. The first look is when the bride and groom, dressed in their wedding gear, take photos with each other before they say their “I do”s. This typically happens shortly before the ceremony and it gives the bride and groom time to see each other, to be relatively alone, and to have time for pictures before the guests arrive. This can help you take more photogenic photos because you won’t be taking these photos during the cocktail hour instead, rushing to get back to your guests, and you’ll also naturally be overwhelmed with emotion when you see your future...


Relax in front of the camera. Release the tension from your face. Embrace your smile lines. Combat a toothy grin by shifting the position of your tongue.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

To achieve a consistent natural smile, it is important that you commit to having fun during the photo shoot. Jump around between shots to stay loose. Recall funny memories or jokes to make yourself laugh during the session. Fill your mind with happy thoughts that will ease your nerves. Don’t take the photo-opt too seriously, but stay calm and enjoy your time in front of the camera. To relax your face, begin by taking a deep, cleansing inhale. On the exhale, smile. Simultaneously, relax your forehead, release your brow, and unclench your jaw. There will only be slight points of tension at the corners of your eyes and lips. Wrinkles are a byproduct of your natural grin. A natural smile causes lines to appear around your mouth. It also produces small lines around your outer eyes. When you fake a smile, these lines are less likely to appear, causing your grin to look forced. While flashing some of your teeth is acceptable, it can be unbecoming to reveal all of your teeth when you smile. Fortunately, there is a quick and simple trick to avoiding the joker grin. Raise your tongue and place it directly behind your top front teeth. This will lift your chin and relax your mouth.


Relax your body. Turn the lights on. Talk to a friend or family member. Get some fresh air. Do something fun. Treat yourself to a relaxing activity. Watch a funny movie or TV show. Avoid scary films in the future.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The stress and anxiety experienced after a scary movie can be combated through deep breathing, meditation, and other relaxation exercises. Try to relax your body as soon as possible if you're feeling scared. If you’re new to these practices, you can find guided relaxation exercises for free through Google and YouTube. Sitting in the dark after a scary movie will only add to a frightful mood. Before bed, turn night-lights on in your room and/or bathroom in case you get up in the middle of the night. If you're feeling scared, have a conversation with someone who can reassure you of your safety. If you're alone, pick up the phone and call someone. If it's not too late, try taking a walk outside. Altering your physical environment can help take your mind off the scary movie, and spending some time outdoors is a great way to relieve feelings of stress. Call a friend to see if they want to hang out, spend some time playing a favorite game, or pick another form of play. Whatever activity you choose should be sufficiently enjoyable - the main point is to distract yourself from the scary movie. Taking a warm bath or shower, reading a book, listening to calming music, and practicing some light yoga are great ways to wind down. Use laughter to help distract your mind and forget the scary movie. Be sure to find something that is really hilarious though; it needs to totally counteract what you just watched. If your current experience with a scary movie is a cause for significant grief, it’s best to steer clear of horror films and monster flicks to avoid feeling frightened! There's no shame in suggesting a drama or comedy the next time movie night comes around.


Relax your muscles. Use your diaphragm. Blend vocal registers.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Many singers tend to tilt their heads up when they sing high notes and down when they sing low notes. These tense movements can strain your voice and even limit your range. Instead, always try to keep your throat and neck muscles relaxed when you sing. You may find that your voice cracks when you’re nervous. This is because your muscles are tense when you’re nervous. Many experience cracking because they’re singing from their throat instead of their diaphragm. Use your larger abdominal muscles when you sing, and don’t rely on the smaller ones in your throat. This will allow you to have more support while you sing and transition more freely between registers. Train yourself to do this by practicing low breathing. To do this properly, expand your belly like a balloon when you take deep breaths. Vocal registers are different ways of producing sound. When you sing, your vocal folds look and vibrate differently when in different registers. Because of this, it’s hard to transition smoothly from one to another without cracking. Avoid cracking by training yourself to blend these registers.  Head voice (the higher, lighter, sweeter register) and chest voice (the deeper, lower, more powerful register) are the more common vocal registers. Beginners naturally sing lower notes in chest voice and higher notes in head voice. Practice singing lower notes in head voice and higher notes in chest voice to help ease the transition.


Relax your shoulders and lower your head to gently stretch your neck. Apply pressure to the base of your neck with your fingertips. Use one hand to knead the muscles in your opposite shoulder. Sweep your fingers along the trapezius to loosen the fascia.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Un-hunch your shoulders and let them fall while dropping the point of your chin towards your chest. Focus on releasing any tension that you’ve been holding onto in your neck and upper back. After few moments, tilt your head to one side and then the other to lengthen the sides of your neck.  Take your time and let everything relax gradually. Don’t force the stretch, as this could cause discomfort or even result in a pulled muscle.  A quick neck stretch will help relieve tightness in the muscles around the shoulders, getting them ready for more intensive massage techniques. Bring the index, middle, and ring fingers of your dominant hand together and reach them around to settle on the spot where the muscles of the neck and shoulders meet. Press straight down firmly and hold this position for 10-30 seconds. You should be able to feel the muscles begin to soften beneath your touch after a few seconds. Raise your right hand to your left shoulder and pinch your trapezius muscle between your thumb and remaining fingers. Apply steady pressure for 10-30 seconds, or slowly rotate your shoulder forward and back in a circular motion to mimic the rhythmic pulling action of a traditional massage. When you’re done, use your left hand to repeat the same technique on your right shoulder.  Be sure to work the entire trapezius muscle, from the side of your neck to the outer edge of your shoulder. To avoid squeezing too hard, try adjusting the amount of pressure you use until you find a sweet spot and stick with it. Lay the same three fingers you used to hold the pressure point in the back of your neck flat across your upper shoulder. Then, press down lightly and drag them smoothly along the surface of the muscle towards your arm a few times. This will promote beneficial blood flow to the fascia, or the connective tissue surrounding the shoulder muscles.  This is a finishing technique, so there’s no need to use a lot of force or try to penetrate down deep into the muscle. Just go over the area few times and relish the relief it...


Relax! Make your move before you psyche yourself out. Use strong body language. If you’re not confident, find an excuse to talk. Open casually.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If there's one single thing you can do to make it easier to ask people for their numbers, make it this! Though it's always difficult (some might say almost impossible) to force yourself to relax once you're already in a stressful situation, approaching social encounters where you think you'll probably ask for someone's number with a calm, relaxed attitude makes it much easier to pop the difficult question (and makes you look supremely confident to boot). Though everyone relaxes differently, you may want to try experimenting with some of the following relaxation methods:  Meditation Yoga Physical exercise Deep breathing Making yourself laugh Thinking of the people around you as laughable (e.g., that they're in their underwear, etc.) Often, working up the courage to talk to people you're attracted to in the first place is way harder than actually asking for their numbers. To have the best chance of getting a number, you have to be willing to immediately take the plunge and talk to people you find attractive without giving yourself a chance to over-analyze the situation and find a reason not to. Don't give yourself any opportunities to chicken out! It's much, much harder to get numbers if you don't ever approach and talk to people you find attractive. If you're having a hard time finding the nerve to approach an attractive person, force yourself to act. Try giving yourself a hard time limit (10 seconds, for instance, if you're feeling bold) for waiting and worrying before you walk over and talk to someone and stick to this time limit! If you're with friends, have them agree to "push" you into social interactions instead of giving you opportunities to wiggle out of them. If you look confident, most people will think you are confident — they have no way to know that you're sweating bullets on the inside unless you tell them! Take advantage of this and use proud, confident body language to give your flirting game an immediate boost. The best part of doing this is that it's part of a self-reinforcing cycle: when...


Relax. Allow your baby to nurse frequently for as long as he wants. Practice undressing your baby to stimulate skin-to-skin contact during breast feeding. Try sling feeding. Offer your baby both breasts at every feeding to let your body know to make more breast milk. Try taking a nursing "vacation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Loads of stress can hurt your ability to produce milk. Try to relax before pumping or breastfeeding by playing soothing music, looking at pictures that produce happiness, or just having a moment with the love of your life. If you want to, try putting warm compresses on your breasts or massaging them for a short period right before you intend to pump or breastfeed. The more often your breasts are stimulated, the more milk your body makes. At least 8 feedings in a 24-hour period is ideal, more if possible. If you normally feed on a set schedule, allow the baby to feed on demand to increase your breast milk production. Undressing your baby while he breast feeds may help him feed longer. (Longer sessions mean more production of breast milk.)  Undress your baby down to his diaper, but drape a blanket over his back to ensure that he doesn't get cold. Take off your bra and wear a shirt that can be unbuttoned on the front to promote skin-to-skin contact. Wearing a sling and keeping your baby close to the ultimate food supply should encourage him to feast more frequently. Some babies tend to feed more when on the move. Switch breasts as soon as your baby slows down. It's best if you can switch again and offer each breast twice during a single feeding session. Let your baby nurse for as long as possible-until he falls asleep or detaches. "For a day or two, take your baby to bed with you and do nothing but nurse when the urge hits your baby. Of course, you get to go to the kitchen and the bathroom and hit other motherly duties, but this vacation is all about you and your newborn. During this vacation, take advantage of nap nursing, which is exactly what it sounds: sleeping with your baby ever-close to his favorite food. This relaxes both mother and child. It also increases the stimulation of milk-producing hormones.


Relax. Compliment your date Be considerate. Pay attention to her. Act smooth when it’s time to pay the bill. Say goodbye appropriately.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It’s normal to feel a little nervous on a date, but it’s important to be yourself, and your nervous self isn’t necessarily your genuine self. Calm yourself down when you’re nervous. Realize that you’ll have other dates and opportunities to impress a girl, maybe even the same girl.  Avoid looking nervous by staying calm and not fidgeting, tapping your foot, or biting your nails. Relax your muscles and think calmly and positively. . Don’t overload her with compliments the whole date, or you might come off as insincere. Instead, express your appreciation with genuine feeling when you first see her, and whenever else it feels natural and truthful.  Avoid comments about her body or what she’s wearing. When you greet her, try saying, “You look beautiful,” before or after a kiss on the cheek. Or, focus on something about her that’s more specific, like “You have gorgeous eyes.”  Compliment good features of her personality as you notice them, such as her intellect or sense of humor. Consciously focus on having good manners. Open car doors and building doors for her. Offer her your hand if she’s getting out of the car. Pull out her seat in a restaurant. Offer her your jacket if it’s cold. Be polite to others in front of your date as well, such as employees of locations you visit on your date. Smile at her and make frequent eye contact. Be an active listener by nodding and showing that you’re interested in what she says. Definitely avoid staring at or showing interest in other girls during your date.  For instance, don’t interrupt when she’s talking. Give her your full attention, as if you’re going to be quizzed on it later. Listening to your date is the best way you can find out what she wants and expects in a relationship. Be the one who asks the waiter for the bill if you’re at a restaurant. You want to impress her, so plan to pay for the date and don’t make a show about it – in fact, if you want to earn her respect, pay it discreetly without making any mention of it. Many girls expect their date to pay, and she may...


Relax. Connect with the camera. Put your best face forward. Smile with your eyes. Elongate your torso and angle body: Create space with arms and legs. Keep your chin down. Find your light: Keep your eyes open! Always keep your mouth slightly open. Remember to practice, practice, practice!

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This may sound very simple but the number one way a great photo opportunity is ruined is with unnatural body mechanics or facial expressions. It may be difficult to be at ease when your body feels awkward and out of place, but for now your first step is to take a deep breath and notice any areas of your body where there may be tension and let go! It is very important to start becoming aware of the camera and the placement of your body in front of it. Most people who are photogenic like being photographed and this comes across in their pictures. Don't be scared of the camera's lens. Pretend it's a friend, lover, parent, or anything else that will help you get the desired look you want! Be sure to have plenty of photographs taken of you so that you can practice connecting and being in front of the camera. Determine the most flattering angles in your face and memorize them. To do this, stand in front of a mirror, and find the most symmetrical side of your face. Full frontal face pictures can be harsh, so when taking a photo, present three-quarters of your face to the camera. This brings out the angles in your face and softens the overall look. This is a commonly used term in the modeling world. Your eyes speak volumes in photos. A simple smile with a dead eye can have bad results. You never want to look tired or uninterested in your pictures. To smile with the eyes, tighten the muscles in your upper cheek and lower eyelid. Imagine your eye is actually making a smiley face! It may be difficult at first but practice in front of a mirror with a piece of paper covering your mouth. Your eyes should turn up a bit at the outer corners and a twinkling effect will result. The classic model s pose is to arrange your body at a 45 degree angle to the camera with one foot in front of the other and one shoulder closer to the camera than the other. With hips squared, turn your upper body straight toward the camera, creating a slight twist in the torso. Pretend there is a string connected to the top of your head, and it is...


Relax. Dress comfortably. Clean up. Prepare, but keep it conversational. Don’t restate information on your resume. Ask intelligent questions.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you are asked to interview via Skype, it means that the admissions committee finds your application promising. If you treat the interview as a sign that you’re doing well, it will be less stressful. Most candidates where a shirt and tie or a simple blouse, but if you feel more comfortable in a full suit or business casual, that is fine, too. The most important thing is that you are comfortable, which will help you to relax and give a good interview. Make sure the background behind you is neat and orderly. If the room you are in is a mess, it will leave a bad impression with the interviewer. A few well-chosen books on the shelf behind you, on the other hand, can reinforce your image as a serious student. The interview is meant to be conversational, so scripted answers will not help you. Please, don’t memorize anything, but it is a good idea to have a basic idea about how you will answer some typical questions:  Why do you want to go to law school? What attracts you to Harvard Law, in particular? When did you decide to go to law school?  What do you see yourself doing when you graduate? The point of the interview is to learn about you as a person, not about your accomplishments. Avoid talking about your resume or listing examples found in your personal statement. You will score the most points with your interviewer if you come across as intelligent, curious, and fun to talk to. At some point, your interviewer will probably ask if you have any questions. You’ll need to have some ready, and because it’s important to have researched Harvard Law in advance, they shouldn’t be things that can be easily answered simply by browsing the University’s website. So instead of asking “what opportunities are there for gaining practical experience,” you might ask “I’m really interested in the Transactional Law Clinics; can you tell me more about how they work and build on classroom instruction?” The point of the question is not only to gather information, but also to show that you are intelligent and inquisitive.


Relax. Hold the reins firmly, but don't pull. Guide the horse with your body. Talk to your horse.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

This may seem like a strange way to begin riding, but realize that your horse will pick up on any tension or anxiety. When you're relaxed, your horse will relax too, allowing its joints and muscles to become more flexible. This lets your horse know that you're there. Be sure not to pull tightly on the reins, though. The horse will need space in order to move its head. Use gentle hands to communicate through the reins. Work with a bit of slack in the reins. Your horse will pick up on the slight vibrations in the reins. If you constantly pull on your horse, it will become desensitized. Use your pelvic muscles to suggest a direction to your horse. Drive your pelvis forward or backward to encourage your horse in those directions. Developing these cues will take time and practice. Keep working with your horse to create this intuitive method of instruction. Use simple verbal cues to back up physical cues. For example, you can encourage your horse to move and stop by saying, "walk," "whoa," or "ho." Be consistent in giving verbal directions. You should also give positive encouragement and support when your horse follows through with a direction. You can say, "good horse/boy/girl," or rub its neck.


Release Suicune into the wild. Stock up on essential items. Assemble the team. Save your game. Start the battle. Start throwing Poké Balls.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

In order to make Suicine available for capture, you will need to trigger certain events in the game. Only after triggering these events will you be able to go to Tin Tower and attempt to capture the legendary Pokémon for yourself.  Visit the Burned Tower in Ecruteak City and talk to Eusine. Fall down the hole after battling your Rival, who will make a rude comment about you falling down the hole. Walk onto the platform to awaken the three Legendary Pokémon. Surf to Cianwood City to catch a glimpse of Suicune. After beating Pryce at Mahogany town, go beat Team Rocket at the Johto Radio Tower. Return to Ecruteak City and visit the Tin Tower. The guard will allow you to pass. Before battling Suicune, you'll want to ensure that you have enough items to keep you alive for a long fight. Grab lots of Hyper Potions, and as many Ultra Balls as you can afford (it is recommended that you have anywhere from 30-50 Balls). You can make quick work of Suicine with the right team. Since you don't want to knock Suicune out, but you want to get it as weak as possible, one of the moves you'll want to have on your Pokémon is False Swipe. Put a high-level Scyther or Scizor in your party for this role. You'll also want someone to put Suicune to sleep with a move like Hypnosis. Gengar or Haunter may be good choices for this role. Immediately before fighting Suicune, make sure that your game is saved. This will make it easy to retry in case you accidentally knock it out or your party gets wiped out. As soon as the fight starts, put Suicune to sleep. Once Suicune is asleep, switch to your Scyther or Scizor and start using False Swipe. False Swipe will always leave the opponent with at least one HP, so continue using it until Suicune has only one hit point left. If Suicune wakes up at any point, switch back to Haunter/Gengar and use Hypnosis again. Now that Suicune only has one hit point left, it's time to start chucking Poké Balls at it. Use any ball––Ultra, Master, Great, Poke, Fast, and Lure Balls all work. This can take a really...

Once the screen displays the multicolored Siri logo, you can release the Home button. You should see the words you're saying appear on-screen as you speak. Siri will analyze your request or question and then follow up with an answer. You can tap the Siri logo at the bottom of the screen to open Siri again when she's done talking.


Release the bottom portion of hair from the elastic hair tie. Curl the loose hair with a hair dryer and round brush. Secure the whole style in place with a final coat of hairspray. Accessorize if you want to add a little pizazz or color.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Brush out any tangles, working the brush straight down until your hair seems smooth again. Take extra care not to disturb the curls. There are several ways to match the bottom of your hair to the victory curls, but the simplest is to leave the lower section down and give a loose, wavy curl. Work around your entire head using a hair dryer and large-barrel round brush to make loose, flowy curls. Don't brush the curls out, or that will make them frizzy.  The waves or curls of this section should spiral down vertically. Do not curl the hair in horizontal sections. You can also use a 2 in (5.1 cm) to 3 in (7.6 cm) curling iron to curl the bottom section of your hair. Use enough spray to hold both the rolls and your loose-hanging waves. Up-dos require a lot of hairspray to tame flyaways and hold everything in place. If your hair looks frizzy at this point, you can also use a small amount of hair cream or serum to help tame the frizz and create a smoother style. You can leave the victory rolls as they are, or you can give the look even more retro, feminine flair by highlighting them with a large flower or colorful bow. Just clip your chosen accessory into the style wherever you think looks best. Position the accessory on the side with the smaller victory roll to keep the look balanced. Slide the hair clip into the flat hair toward the front of your face and just above your ear. The ornament should not grab into the hair used to complete the victory roll itself.


Release the clutch.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Turn the clutch knob toward you, or counter-clockwise, to release it. The clutch knob should be located on the right side of your machine. For most models, you will need to hold the outside of the knob still with one hand while turning the inner portion of the knob toward you with the other hand. The outer portion is the hand wheel, while the inner portion is the clutch knob.


Relieve stress with relaxation practices. Practice deep breathing. Meditate. Create a support network for yourself. Keep a journal.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Relaxation practices have proved to be very effective in improving overall mental health. They reduce the symptoms of stress, and can help prevent relapses of ASD. They can also help treat the secondary effects of mental illness like insomnia, fatigue, and hypertension. When you seek psychological help for ASD, your therapist will probably teach you several relaxation exercises. It is usually a part of cognitive behavioral therapy. A common and powerful tool for reducing stress is deep breathing. By using the right techniques, you can effectively lower your stress level and help avoid future problems.  Take breaths from your abdomen, not your chest. This will pull more oxygen into your body and help you relax. When breathing, place your hand on your stomach to make sure your abdomen rises and falls when you breathe. If it doesn't, you aren't breathing deeply enough. Sit up with your back straight. Alternatively, you could lie on the floor too. Breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. Take in as much air as you can, and then exhale until your lungs are completely empty. Like deep breathing, meditation helps release stress from the body and lets the you achieve a state of relaxation. Regular meditation can help improve your mental and physical health by reducing your levels of stress and anxiety.  In this process, the person shifts to a quiet place, concentrates on a single sound, and allows his or her mind to turn away from all concerns and thoughts of daily life. Select a quiet place, sit comfortably, clear all thoughts out of your mind and concentrate on the image of a candle, or a word like “relax”. Do this for 15 to 30 minutes daily. People with good support networks are less susceptible to episodes and relapses of mental illness. In addition to family and friends, you can reach out to support groups for help and camaraderie.  Share your issues with those close to you. Don't bottle up your feelings. Telling your family and friends what you're feeling is very important for building a support...


Relieve tension on the belt with the auto-tensioner (if equipped). Loosen the bolts on the alternator if there is no auto-tensioner. Inspect the serpentine belt for damage. Remove the alternator from the engine bay. Compare the new alternator to the old one.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Some vehicles use the alternator itself to apply tension to the serpentine or accessory belt, but others use an auto tensioner pulley. Insert the square drive from a breaker bar into the hole in the auto-tensioner pulley and apply pressure in a clockwise direction to relieve tension on the belt.  You can tell if your vehicle uses an auto-tensioner by looking at the alternator mounting bracket: if the bolts can slide from side to side in the bracket, it does not have an auto-tensioner. You will need to slide the belt off the alternator pulley before you release the auto-tensioner. In some cars, you might need a friend to relieve the tension while you remove the belt. In cars without an auto-tensioner pulley, you can relieve the tension on the belt simply by loosening the two bolts that secure the alternator to the engine. These will often require a 14mm or 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) socket, though you may need to try others.  As you loosen the bolts, the alternator will slide in the bracket under the tension of the belt. You may not need to remove the serpentine or accessory belt if it’s not damaged. Look for signs of glossing or glazing (shinier portions) on the edges and underside of the belt. Inspect both the top and underside for signs of cracking as well.  If you find any of those issues, you’ll need to replace it. With the belt pulled off of the alternator pulley and the wires disconnected, the alternator should come out freely.  You may need to wiggle the alternator around some things in order to remove it. Keep track of how you worm the alternator out of the engine bay to help squeeze the new one in. Before installing the new alternator, set it down on a table next to the old one you just removed. Make sure the mounting holes and wire connectors are in the same place and that the two parts are the same size.  Even if you provided specific information when purchasing the alternator, this step is important to make sure they provided you with the correct part. If they don’t match, return the new alternator to the...


Relieve your child's anxiety about bath time. Read stories about bath time to make the toddler look forward to it. Add color and bath toys to the bathroom. Tell your toddler to get ready for a bath. Keep a positive attitude about bath time.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Pay attention to what your toddler dislikes about bath time. Then try to put your toddler at ease. For example, if you notice that they get frightened when the water drains, make silly sounds while the tub drains or get them out of the tub before pulling the plug.  If your toddler is fearful of the water, consider taking them to swim lessons which will make them more comfortable with the water. You could also buy a splash pad or sprinkler, which will allow your child to have fun in water. Your toddler might dislike baths because they associate it with getting ready for bed or the end of play time. Try giving them their bath at a different time of day. Buy or borrow a book or two about bath time that are tailored to your toddler’s needs. For example, choose a book about how bubbles make baths fun or how it's not scary when the water goes down the drain.  You can even read stories to your toddler while they're in the tub. Listening to you read a story can relax them enough for you to stop and bathe them. You can even find waterproof books that your child can take in the tub! Add color to your bathroom to make it less scary. Try adding bright rugs, towels, or sponges. Set out bath toys that your toddler can toss in the tub if they like. For example, offer:  Washable tub crayons Rubber ducks Bath sponges Plastic balls Some toddlers dislike baths because they don't like having to abruptly stop their play. To reduce problems with transitioning to the tub, give your toddler a heads up that it's almost time to get in the bath.  For example, go over to your toddler and say, "In 2 minutes, we're going to start playing in the tub!" For toddlers who are testing boundaries, you can emphasize that baths are non-negotiable. For example, say, "It’s okay that you don’t like bath time, but staying clean is important, so we don’t have a choice.” It's easy to give in to the challenge of bath time and dread it as much as your toddler does. Instead, stay positive so your child senses how fun the bath will be. If your child starts...


Reload your weapon and watch the deer for a few minutes for signs of life. Unload your weapon. Attach your tag to the deer in a convenient location. Drag the deer to clearing on a slight incline to field dress it. Hang a piece of blaze orange fabric on a nearby tree.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

After shooting the deer, close the distance between you and the deer to make sure you can deliver another shot if the deer is still alive. Approaching an injured deer is very dangerous, so if you see signs that the deer is still alive, you can either shoot the deer again or wait for it to die.  Do not approach a live deer to slice its throat with a knife. Deer can be very dangerous when injured. Aim about a third of the way up the body of the deer, directly behind the front shoulder when firing a second shot. That’s the vicinity of the deer’s heart. Once you’re sure the deer is dead, you need to clear the firearm before safely setting the weapon aside to clean the deer. Remove the magazine (if present) and clear the chamber or barrel. Make sure to visually confirm that there are no rounds or shells still in the chamber or barrel. Different shotguns and rifles utilize different loading mechanisms. Clearing a muzzleloader, breach loader, pump shotgun, bolt action, or a semi-automatic rifle all require different methods you should be apprised with well before hunting deer. If a game warden approaches you while cleaning your deer, you will be expected to be able to show the tag you’ve attached to the deer. Fill out the required information on the tag (which varies depending on local government but usually includes date and time of the kill) and tie it to the deer in a visible spot.  Most states don’t require the tag be placed anywhere specifically, just as long as its visible.  The tag must stay on the deer until it's done being transported and has been quartered. Chances are good that the deer didn’t die in the best spot to be field cleaned. Grab it by the hind legs and pull the deer to a suitable clearing that is preferably on a slight incline.  Never pick up and carry a dead deer. Other hunters may mistake it for a live one and shoot you. Look for a clear patch of grass with a slight incline. Once you’ve determined where you’ll field dress the deer, remove an article of clothing that’s blaze orange and hang it...


Relocate your shoulder only in emergency situations. Ask for help in an emergency situation. Lay on your back and abduct your arm.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Under most situations, waiting for professional medical help is the best idea and certainly the safest way to go, but sometimes that's not possible. If you're in an isolated situation far from medical attention (camping, mountain climbing, traveling abroad), the potential risks of fixing your own shoulder — or that of a friend or family member — may not outweigh the benefits of experiencing immediate pain relief and increased arm/shoulder mobility.  As a general rule of thumb, if you can get medical assistance within 12 hours, then wait patiently and try to reduce the discomfort with ice, painkillers and a sling. If a much longer waiting time is apparent, particularly if you need some mobility in your shoulder to get to a hospital, then relocating your shoulder might be considered. The main complications related to trying to relocate your own shoulder are: further tearing muscles, ligaments and tendons; damaging nerves and blood vessels; life-threatening bleeding; severe pain that results in loss of consciousness. If you're forced to consider relocating your own shoulder in an emergency situation, then realize that putting it back in without assistance is nearly impossible. As such, ask for help or offer to help someone else if in an emergency situation. People may be reluctant to help you because they don't want to cause you more pain or risk injuring your shoulder more, so try to reassure them and release them from any liability.  If you're needed to help someone else relocate his shoulder, make sure to get his consent and tell him clearly about your lack of medical training (if applicable). You don't want to face any litigation for trying to be helpful if things go wrong.  If you have a phone and can make a call, try contacting emergency services for advice and support. Even if they can't send medical personnel to you right away, they may be able to offer helpful instructions. Probably the easiest way for non-professionals to relocate your shoulder joint is if you lay flat on your back with your injured...


Rely on friends and family. Talk to people you trust. Allow them to cheer you up. Seek professional help.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Don’t shut them out while you try to cope with the trauma of the event. They can often help you cope with a traumatic event in a lot of ways. They can listen to you, talk to you, encourage you, and comfort you.   You may not hear from your family or friends as you would expect to, due to them just not knowing what to say or how to react. Don't be afraid to reach out. Just spend time being around them. You don’t have to say or do anything. Try saying, “Could you just be with me right now? I feel really anxious and don’t want to talk or do anything. I just want someone here with me.” Stay with one of them for a few days of you need to (especially if the traumatic event has you afraid, depressed, or anxious). You don’t need to or have to tell all of your family members and friends. Tell those that will be there for you. Talking about it helps them understand what you are going through. It can also help you deal with the emotions related to the event. Although you don’t have to (and shouldn’t) tell everyone you meet, you will cope better if you don’t keep it a secret.   Ask them to help you by staying calm. You might say, “I need you to stay calm when I tell you what happened so that I can stay calm.” Don’t be mad if they ask some questions, they are just trying to understand what happened. You can ask that they not share what you have told them with anyone else. If the traumatic event is something that happened to people other than just you, talk to them. They understand exactly what you went through and are going through. Because they care about you, your friends and family will want to see you smile and try to cheer you up. Let them, even if it’s just to distract yourself from the traumatic event for a few moments. Smiling and laughing will help relieve some of your physical and emotional tension.  Try to laugh at their corny joke or chuckle at the silly meme they send you. Take up their offer for a movie or a walk on the beach. You don’t have to pretend that you are happy when you aren’t. But at the same...


Rely on other people for advice and all of your ideas: Talk to other teachers/preachers to get ideas, but that could become a habit, be a crutch and a waste of time for both of you, if the two of you have different needs and objectives. Try to use various collections of sermon outlines from old or new books of sermons, but change it to fit you needs. Consider Bible software that has The Bible, commentary, dictionary, cross references which can all be great. Pray and read your Bible daily.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

No, not really. It is a good idea to have someone to talk ideas over with, if you would not talk and visit all day with various people, and avoid not studying or preparing well -- that won't work very often.  Find sermon outline services on the Internet, completely organize them, to your needs. They probably can't serve your needs, if you just pick out a sermon outline that sort of sounds okay, but it is something that does not particularly inspire or inform, or about which you wouldn't care to talk/hear yourself. They won't be in your style, in your order, or right for the way you feel or speak. Download collections of lessons or sermons: Some great old-time religion materials should be found out there, for free. Consider subscribing to preaching outlines perhaps with Power Point presentations, with pictures, and examples--even with a complete order of service, list of verses, cross references, and songs to use. Use free Bible look-up websites accessible for 25 versions and even with different languages such as  and ; the two sites totally free and are quite different from each other. Give thanks, take notes, think and muse on the scriptures, and so be in the right frame of mind to reach and receive inspirations.


Rely on satisfying foods. Don't avoid natural fats. Drink plenty of fluids. Stay alert to sugars by reading the labels of packaged foods. Avoid the foods that trigger overeating. Don't make carbohydrate compromises with yourself. Get rid of your “fat” wardrobe. Track your weight weekly so that you can avoid “carb creep. Remember your power.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Stick with proteins rather than carbohydrates to help you feel full. Your body still burns fat to keep you warm, to keep muscles working and to give you energy.   Keep them out of your home whenever possible. Don't tell yourself that you can have that slice of pizza or serving of ice cream on a regular basis. If you do slip, then figure out how to recover and return to your ACE. Purchase clothes in your new size and make a decision never to outgrow them. ” You have accomplished so much by losing weight with Atkins. You have probably inspired other people to lose weight and to be healthier. Be proud of your accomplishments. When you are tempted to give up, take a look at the picture of your heavier self that you placed in your food journal.


Rely on scale questions. Write a survey that takes less than 20 minutes. Phrase some questions negatively. Place questions about demographics at the end of the survey.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Scale questions present an opinion, fact, or situation and then ask respondents to rate how true or likely it is. Employees are more likely to respond to these types of questions, since they only have to fill in a bubble, than open-ended questions where they have to write out an answer. For example, you can ask questions like "My supervisor resolves customer conflict quickly" and then offer scale answers. Give them 5 bubbles in a horizontal line, and place "Strongly disagree" above the bubble all the way to the left and "Strongly agree" above the bubble all the way to the right. If your survey is too long, your employees are likely to give up halfway through and never turn it in. The survey should only take about 20 minutes, which would mean 50 to 75 scale questions. If you ask too many questions that seem to suggest you're looking for a positive answer, employees might stop the survey. Phrasing about a third of your survey questions negatively can prevent this. For example, instead of wording a question that says "We do a good job of resolving conflicts in my department," word it so it says "We do a poor job of resolving conflicts in my department." One of the most important factors in getting employees to answer surveys is anonymity. If you ask demographic questions up front, employees may feel it will reveal who they are, and they'll be less likely to answer the rest of the survey. If you do have to ask demographic questions, limit how many you include. Three is the absolute most you should use.


Rely on your most versatile pieces. Use pawns to protect valuable pieces. Take control of the four center squares. Protect your king at all costs.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Some pieces can move further or in more directions than others. These should be the ones that do most of the legwork on the board. The rook, for instance, can traverse an unlimited number of squares either forward, backward or to either side in a single move; the bishop can do the same in a diagonal direction. Knights can move across two spaces and up one, allowing them to navigate out of tricky situations and capture pieces in surprise attacks. The more movement options you have, the better able you’ll be to pull off the strategy you’ve laid out.  Train yourself to think of playing pieces in tandem with one another. Use your turns to set them up, then make it so your opponent has no way out. Remember that while some pieces have abilities that others don’t, they are each useful under different circumstances. Not every piece is meant to be played the same way. Position pawns around pieces that you can’t afford to lose to keep them from being taken. One of the advantages of pawns is that they have strength in numbers, making them ideal for defensive blocking. When enemy pieces approach, you can either capture them with your pawns or hold your position until your opponent makes a mistake, then follow up by mobilizing powerful pieces.  This is why it’s not a good idea to recklessly sacrifice your pawns. Inexperienced players too frequently sacrifice pawns, leaving their important pieces less protected. Pawns are also capable of being promoted to rook, bishop, knight or even queen pieces when they reach the opposite side of the board. As soon as the game starts, jockey your pawns to take as many of the four center pieces of the board as you can. You can then begin to move your other pieces in the center as the game progresses. The center position of the board is key to controlling the game, as it allows the most mobility, especially for versatile pieces like the knight and queen. Controlling the center gives you more freedom of movement, but it also puts you at more risk of being surrounded by a veteran player....


Remain calm at all times. Teach your dog to sit. Teach your dog to lie down. Teach your dog to stay. Teach your dog to come. Teach your dog to heel. Find a trainer.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your demeanor impacts your dogs in everyday life. If you’re running around bursting with energy, your dog might become excited, too. If you want to train your dog, you need to stay cool and calm. The same applies when you are training your dog. He won’t get it right on the first try, nor maybe even the 10th. If you can stay calm, he’ll be calmer and more able to learn commands.  Your dog will sense and associate unhappiness with training if you become frustrated or use a mean tone of voice. Always reward your dog when he or she obeys the command. You can use verbal praise, food, or affection like a belly run or a pet. Finally, you should not teach commands until you have bonded with your dog and he trusts you. And you should always praise your dog when he responds as you want. Begin in a quiet environment when teaching all commands so your dog isn’t distracted. Hold your dog’s leash (use one that is 6 feet long) in your right hand and position him on your left facing forward. Gently run your fingers along your dog’s spine to his hip joints and give a firm but gentle squeeze while saying, “Sit.” Push his hips down with your left hand and raise the leash with your right. Stretch out the word “sit” until he is sitting. When he sits, be enthusiastic and praise him. Repeat until your dog responds and then do the command without pushing down on his hips.  Once he’s mastered this, simply say, “Sit,” and don’t pull up on the leash. If he’s not responding after several training sessions, give the command “Sit” and gently jerk the leash while you push down on his hip joints. With your dog on your left, hold the leash in your right hand, kneel on your left knee and say “Down” in a firm voice. While doing this, lift your dog’s two front paws slightly and pull them forward so he’s on the ground. Praise him after each repetition. Once he learns this, introduce the hand signal for lie down. Get him in the sit position, kneel on your left knee and extend the leash about 12” to the right of your dog. You don’t want slack in...


Remain calm. Acknowledge the possible offense in order to let it go. Resist passing judgment. Search for alternative meanings and motivations. Be aware of your energy level. Reply with grace. Consider outcomes. Use positive self-talk

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Allow time to pass before responding to someone you feel is offending you. If you are too easily offended, it has probably become an automatic response for you. This means that there is no time between feeling offended and responding as if you’ve been hurt. So, make time to pause and question whether or not you want to take offense.  If the emotions are running too high to just pause, try counting to ten in your head. Learning and practicing mindfulness exercises regularly will make this step easy as pie. Mindfulness involves learning how to strategically detach from strong emotions so that more measured responses can be formulated.  One mindfulness exercise is to spend time focusing on your breath. When you attend to the sensation of your breath coming and going, you gain a stronger connection to your feelings rather than pesky, automatic thoughts. When letting go of a habitual response like taking offense, there’s no use trying to shut out your knee-jerk thoughts. Instead of ignoring what your mind is telling you, listen to it. That way you can determine for yourself whether or not to purse the offense and make a scene.  If someone says that your haircut might not be the best style for you, your head might be screaming “Oh no she didn’t! Give her a piece of your mind!” Hear this anger and feel your urge to lash out in response. This way you can see that as just one of many possible ways that you could respond. It’s also important to see how angry you feel inside so that you can gauge your next move. For example, if you feel enraged then you may not want to respond humorously (since humor in your state might not be perceived as humor at all). Being certain of our interpretation of what a person means or where she is coming from can turn anything into an offense. Consider great works of art; their beauty comes from the possibility of many different interpretations. No interpretation is right, but each one has the power to make us feel differently.  Imagine that an acquaintance just told you that they decided...


Remain calm. Alert others. Know the plan. Prepare to run.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It's natural to panic in an emergency like a public shooting, but panicking causes people to react emotionally rather than thoughtfully. It may seem impossible to keep calm during an emergency, but there are a few things you can do to remain level-headed. Focus on your breath. Count to three while breathing in, hold your breath to the count of three, then exhale to the count of three. You can (and should) do this while moving to safety, but controlling your breath can help you from hyperventilating or making rash decisions. Once you realize that there is an active shooter situation, you should alert others nearby. Some people may not have noticed that an incident has been unfolding, while others may be frozen with fear. Announce to everyone else around you that you believe there is an active shooter situation, and that everyone needs to get out or hide. It's imperative that you have a plan in place of what to do in case of an emergency. Training and preparation can help you escape to safety, but remember to always have a backup plan. If you can't follow your primary plan, evaluate whether or not you can follow your backup plan. Many people freeze up in an emergency. If a shooter is active, you may feel the urge to remain still and hide. However, experts advise that hiding should only be an option if you cannot safely escape. If you know of an escape route that will keep you at a safe distance from the shooter, resist the urge to freeze up and force yourself to run, as long as you can do so safely.


Remain calm. Get all the information. Be gentle. Take care of yourself.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Whether you’ve just gotten the news or are about to attend a meeting, remaining calm will help you problem-solve and approach the situation with a clear head. You might instantly take your child’s side or feel like their expulsion is a reflection of you. If you get a phone call or have a meeting with the school, do your best to be calm throughout. If you notice you’re feeling upset and need to calm down, take some deep breaths. Breathe from your diaphragm and lengthen each of your breaths until you feel more calm and centered. Start by asking both your child and the school district about what happened.  Ask who was involved, what happened, and the timeline of events. Get as much information as you can from as many perspectives as possible. Don't be afraid to ask for a meeting or call back later for more information. This is your child's future.  There may be differences in the stories depending on who’s telling, but get as clear of a picture as you can. Be willing to hear both sides without judgment or interruption. The school deals with your child as a student, but you deal with them as a parent.  While an expulsion is a large academic consequence, you may just talk to them about it. An expulsion shouldn’t be a holiday for your child. You may want to take away their privileges (like a phone or television) or tighten the reins on their freedoms with friends. Your time and attention may be focused on your child during this time, but make sure you’re taking care of yourself, too. Have someone to talk to, like a partner, friend, or another parent who understands. Even if they can’t solve your problems, it can be helpful to talk about it and what you’re going through. Do things for yourself that make you feel supported and taken care of. Take a bath, go on a walk, write in a journal, or listen to calm music.


Remain calm. Give him a straight answer. Suggest somewhere you can focus on each other. Confirm your plans.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you've been waiting a long time for this particular guy to ask you out, it’s easy to get flustered or overly excited. Instead, remain calm while letting him know that you’re excited about the date. Smile and tell him you’d love to go on a date. It can be tempting to play hard-to-get when a guy asks you on a date, but you should try not to. If he had the courage to ask you out, you should give him a straight answer as soon as possible, instead of playing hard to get.  For example, you should say something like “I’d love to go out with you!” instead of “Well, let me check my calendar and get back to you.” It is okay to agree to the date but tell him you have to check to see when you’re available, particularly since you might be busy. Say something like “I’d love to go out – I think I’m free next Friday but let me check my calendar.” If he doesn’t ask you to go on a date to a specific location, you can respond to his date request by making a suggestion yourself. This has the double benefit of letting him know you’re excited about the date and making sure you go somewhere where you feel comfortable. Examples of good first date places are quiet coffee shops or bars. Try to avoid going to the movies on a first date, or going out to eat. You can’t talk in a movie so you won’t know anymore about him after the date than you did before. Trying to eat a meal and talk at the same time is also difficult. It’s a good idea to confirm the plans you’ve made for your date the night before or the afternoon of the date. It lets him know you’re looking forward to the date. It also prevents you from showing up at the wrong place or at the wrong time.


Remain calm. Keep your hands visible at all times. Avoid pointing or yelling. Know that help for the injured is coming.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you've escaped the situation, try to breath deeply. Chances are that you may be experiencing feelings of panic or shock or numbness due to the trauma, so it's best to try to get your bearings by centering your focus on your breathing. When you feel able to talk, you should call your family and loved ones to let them know that you're alright. Law enforcement's first task is to stop the shooter, so as you emerge from the building or public place, always keep your hands up to show that you are not carrying any weapons. Police are trained to initially treat everyone as a suspect since some shooters pretend to impersonate victims. The police have specific guidelines on how to proceed during a public shooting. Let them do their jobs and don't confuse or aggravate the situation by intervening, particularly since your emotions are likely heightened. Let them do their jobs effectively and take down the shooter. The police are trained to locate and stop shooters and this is their primary goal. They will not stop and tend to the injured, but you needn't worry as paramedics have likely already been called to care for those shot or otherwise hurt during the incident. If you have been shot, try to slow your breathing which can help prevent shock and slow the bleeding. Cover the wound with your hands or a cloth and apply pressure to try to stop the bleeding until you can get medical aid.


Remain calm. Move the dog to a quiet location. Apply pressure to the injury. Apply a clotting aid. Clean up the area. Call the veterinarian.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Ears bleed a lot due to the abundance of blood vessels in the ear. In many cases, there is a lot of blood. Don’t worry. Chances are good the dog will not bleed too severely. Also, dogs feed off the emotional energy of their humans. If you are upset or panicked, your dog will get excited. Excitement raises the blood pressure, which leads to more bleeding. You want to remove the dog from other sources or excitement such as other dogs or noisy people. Provide a couple of treats and get the dog to sit or lay down, so you can tend to the injury. Use a dry, clean paper towel, washcloth, pieces of sterile gauze, or any other clean cloth to apply direct pressure to the cut. Keep firm pressure on the cut for up to five minutes.  At two minutes, you can gently lift the towel or cloth to see if the bleeding has slowed. After five minutes of pressure, most bleeding should have slowed considerably or stopped. If you have a commercial clotting aid—the kind you can purchase in the store—pour an ample amount of powder into the palm of one of your hands. Using a clean fingertip, apply the clotting aid to the wound using gentle pressure. Repeat until the bleeding stops completely.  If you don’t have a clotting aid, cornstarch, flour, or baby powder will work. Do not use baking soda or baking powder as they can lead to an infection in the cut. You can use diluted hydrogen peroxide to remove any dried blood from your dog. However, do not use this or anything else directly on the wound. That might disturb the clot and cause bleeding again. Though you can handle most small ear cuts at home, there are some situations where you should allow your vet to treat the dog. In these situations, continue to apply pressure to the wound as you transport your dog to the clinic. The ear may need sutures or other measures to stop the blood flow and ensure the ear heals properly. Seek a vet’s assistance if:  There is profuse bleeding The wound goes through the ear The bleeding doesn’t stop after 10 minutes of home treatment The bleeding keeps...


Remain calm. Open the window, which should be your second escape route. Dial the emergency response number to report the fire once everyone is out of the house safely.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

When family members are all on the second floor and you cannot use the stairway but the hall is clear, get all family members in the room that is easiest to escape from. If you can safely exit through it, do so using your escape ladder. Always send children down first.  If you do not have an escape ladder, pass the children down to safety first. Adults and older children can lower themselves to arm's length and drop.


Remain calm. Prepare the opening of the event. Introduce the speakers. Bridge between segments. Be prepared for anything. Close the event.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Being an MC is a lot of pressure. The event’s success is largely contributed to how well the MC keeps things on track. While the event’s proceedings can get hectic, it is important to remain calm and focus on maintaining your MC persona. To keep your cool, try:   Continuing on if you mess up. Stopping will only make your mistake that much more obvious. Try to roll with the punches and continue on from your mistake. If you do this successfully, the audience will most likely forget your misstep.  Finding a spot to look at while talking. Looking at the individual audience members might make you more nervous while speaking. Instead, try looking over the heads of the audience members to reduce intimidating one on one eye contact.  Slowing down with your words. Nothing shows you’re more nervous as an MC, than talking too quickly. Talking too quickly can lead to mispronunciations and stuttering, which can affect people understanding you. Take your time, and pause slightly in between sentences. Introduce yourself and welcome the audience to the event. Identify the specific, principal groups of your audience, and welcome them individually. These welcomes don’t need to be long-winded, but they do need to be authentic. For example, you might say something like, “To all of our Packer fan dairy farmers who traveled all the way from Wisconsin and had to drive through Bear territory to get here, a warm welcome.” The MC has the key responsibility of introducing different speakers that come up on stage, as well as other key people at the event. The more pertinent a guest is, the more detailed and tailored your introduction of them should be. Once you have made your introduction for a speaker, lead the audience in applauding the speaker until they reach the speaking microphone. When the speaker is finished giving their speech, lead the audience again in applause until the speaker is off the stage and on their way back to their seat.  Since one of the biggest responsibilities as MC is to keep the event running on time, don’t be...


Remain calm. Realize that you can't control someone else. Ask what is upsetting the person. Validate the person's emotions

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you become angry or defensive yourself, you will likely exacerbate the tantrum that the other person is having.  If you can keep yourself calm and rational, it's likely that you will be able to diffuse the temper of the other person. One of the most difficult parts of dealing with the emotions of another person—particularly someone who is a close friend or family member—is accepting that you cannot change the thoughts or actions of another person.  You can offer help and support, but you cannot actually control another person. Adults who are prone to temper tantrums are unlikely to be effective communicators.  You may have to ask the person what is causing them to be so upset.   Be calm and give him time to fully explain himself. Remember to be patient and persistent.  You could say, “I know you said that there is nothing wrong, but I can tell by the way you're acting that you are really upset.  Please talk to me about why you are upset so that I can help you if I am able to.  If you aren't ready to talk about it now, please remember that I am here when you are ready.” . It is important to express to the person having the tantrum that it is okay for them to feel the emotions that they are feeling.   Even if you do not agree with the way they are expressing their feelings (in a tantrum), you can tell them that what they are feeling is okay.  Accepting feelings (such as anger) as a normal part of life can often help people deal with the emotions in a healthier way. For example, you might say, “It seems to me that you are feeling angry or hurt because of the situation.  It's perfectly normal to feel that way; can we talk about how you feel and how we can make you feel better?”


Remain fairly still to avoid jarring or shaking your body. Limit how much you drink when you need to pee. Reposition your body so you aren’t pressing on your bladder. Pass gas Warm your body and avoid getting into water.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Moving around too much can put pressure on your bladder and make you uncomfortable. Now is not the time to go for a jog or practice your dance moves!  Stay seated if you’re already sitting. If you find yourself in a comfortable position, stay there until it becomes uncomfortable and you need to reposition yourself. Avoid changing positions too suddenly, or making abrupt or sudden movements. Keep your movements as fluid and graceful as possible when you walk or perform other activities. Drink enough to maintain normal hydration, but avoid anything unnecessary. Otherwise, you’ll simply be adding to your bladder overload!  The average adult bladder can only hold about 12–16  fl oz (350–470 ml) of urine comfortably. Don’t avoid drinking in an effort to prevent your bladder from filling in the first place. Dehydration is a very real and dangerous condition. You may have to do this several times while holding in urine. Different positions can relieve some of the pressure on your bladder, making it easier to hold in urine. Try the following:  Sit upright or lean back while seated. Leaning forward, especially if your pants are snug, will put more pressure on your bladder. Cross your legs when standing. It can help you feel like you’re closing off your urethra. Cross and uncross your legs while sitting down. These changes in position can alleviate pressure on the bladder. Raise your upper body and allow your back to arch, but do not stretch your abdomen, as this may put pressure on your bladder. , if you have to. The buildup of gas in your intestines can place additional pressure on your bladder. Alleviating this pressure by passing gas may make you feel more comfortable, and may allow you to hold in urine longer. However, passing gas may also make you temporarily lose bladder control, so don’t try this if you don’t think you can hold your pee in while letting your fart out! Make yourself as warm as you can by covering up with blankets, turning up the heater, or cuddling up with your partner. While the exact reasoning...


Remain in the bed with your baby. Avoid placing the baby between the parents. Avoid sleeping on sofas and armchairs. Refrain from sharing a bed if you take depressant substances. Avoid co-sleeping if you smoke. Separate the baby from other children when sleeping. Avoid sharing a bed if your baby was premature or had a low birth weight. Refrain from bed-sharing if you are too tired or cannot be woken easily.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Your baby should never be alone in your bed, even if they are asleep. You or your partner should always been in the bed with the baby. Even stepping away for a few minutes could pose a risk for your baby. If you leave the room, your baby may roll off the bed or end up wedged between something. When you co-sleep with your baby, they should not be placed between two adults in the bed. This can increase the risk of overheating and suffocation. Being between the adults can also increase the likelihood that the baby will get rolled on. The baby should be placed on one side of one of the parents, with that parent facing the baby. The parent’s back should be toward the other adult in the bed. Co-sleeping in unsafe conditions can increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). To keep your baby safe, never sleep with them on a sofa or armchair.  Sleeping with your baby on this furniture can cause your baby to overheat and suffocate. Your baby may become wedged between the cushions or between your body and the furniture. The danger of SIDS for your baby increases if you take any substances that are considered depressants or alter your mental state. Never co-sleep with your baby if you ingest anything that makes you drowsy.  For example, you should not co-sleep with your baby if you have been drinking alcohol or if you take any medication or drugs that will make you drowsy or sleepy. These substances can alter your thought processes, which can lead to you forgetting that your baby is in the bed with you. You may also sleep too deeply and accidentally roll over onto the baby. The smoke on your clothes or body can irritate your infant’s respiration and may increase the risk of SIDS. You shouldn’t co-sleep if you or your partner smokes or uses e-cigarettes. Consider quitting smoking altogether. Even if you don’t smoke at home or in bed, you still shouldn’t co-sleep with your baby. The smoke remnants can lead to respiratory problems – an increase the risk of SIDS. If possible, discourage other children,...


Remain indoors until you're told it's safe to come out. Stay away from areas with heavy ash fall. Clear ash from your home and property. Get medical care if necessary.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Keep the radio on and stay inside until you learn the danger has passed and you're free to go outside. Even after the eruption is over, you might be advised to stay inside until the ash stops falling. If you do go outside before it's deemed safe, make sure your body is covered from head to toe and that you breathe through a respirator or moistened cloth.  Drink only bottled water until the tap water is said to be clean. If you see ash in any water source, avoid drinking it.  If the ash falls for many hours, officials might advise evacuating, even after the eruption is over. That's because ash is so heavy that it can cause roofs to collapse, creating dangerous situations for people staying indoors. Volcanic ash is comprised of tiny glass-like particles that are harmful to the lungs. Don't walk or drive in areas close to the volcano where a lot of ash has collected. Turn on the radio to find out which areas were most severely affected.  Keeping away from ash especially important for people with respiratory conditions like asthma or bronchitis. Don't drive through areas with heavy ash fall, either. The ash will clog up your engine and ruin it. When you're sure it's safe to go out, you'll need to clear the ash from your rooftop and other areas. Ash is very heavy and can cause roofs to collapse, especially when it's wet. If wind stirs it up, it will be harmful to those who breathe it in.  Wear long pants and a long-sleeved shirt and cover your mouth with a mask to avoid breathing in the ash. You might also want to wear goggles. Shovel the ash into trash bags, then seal them and dispose of them according to your community's recommendations. Don't turn your air conditioner on or open your vents back up until most of the ash has been cleared away. Receive medical treatment promptly for burns, injuries, and gas or ash inhalation. Once you are safe, waste no time getting treatment or an examination.  Keep in mind, however, that you may need to wait a while if there are people with more serious injuries.


Remain professional at all times. Be proactive. Respect your client's time. Ask your client for their thoughts and opinions. Pay attention to body language. Be aware of your tone and demeanor.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

No matter what type of interaction you're having with a client, you'll need to remain professional in every capacity. That includes the way you speak, the things you say, and the way you carry yourself in front of your client.  Don't be overly casual. Remember that you're dealing with a client, not a friend, so don't use curse words, tell inappropriate jokes, or use text speak or emojis with a client. Always double-check your grammar and spelling. A glaring error can be embarrassing and may look unprofessional. Ask about your client's personal life if they reveal any details, but don't pry or get too overly-familiar with the client. It may require trial and error to find a good balance. Say polite and appropriate things like, "It's great to see you. How was your weekend?" Avoid polarizing or inappropriate topics like politics, religion, social issues, and romantic endeavors. Failing to be proactive can be frustrating for clients, and it may end up damaging your professional relationship. Always be the one to initiate correspondence, especially when something new comes up that your client will want to know about.  Don't wait for your client to call you with news that affects them; break that news to the client, and your client will recognize your value. Constantly monitor news feeds for important information. However, don't report rumors unless it is something that will affect the value of your client's asset(s). Check your sources before contacting your client.  Have an opinion on the things you inform your client of, and be bold and firm in your opinion. For example, if your client isn't sure about which stocks to invest in, you might say "Based upon your desire for income and limited risk, I think your should consider _____ because _____." Or, as a doctor, you should contact your patient when a test result of theirs comes back or when you hear of a new treatment for a medical issue they have. While you should contact your client on a regular basis, you also don't want to take up too much of their time....


Remain still and seated when you are served. Decide if you want cheese or pepper. Select the proper cutlery. Eat your salad with a knife and fork. Cut and eat one bite at a time. Don’t lean in to take a bite.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Proper dining techniques are most important in formal settings, such as when you’re having an interview or meeting, trying to impress someone, eating at a fine dining establishment, or in some other circumstance when proper etiquette is expected.  In formal settings, there is often a salad course that comes either before the entrée (American style) or after the main dish (European style). The salad course in a formal meal usually consists of a basic salad, such as a green salad or Caesar salad, that includes a combination of lettuce, vegetables, croutons, dressing, and possibly meat or cheese. When a server brings you your salad, do not move away or to the side when the plate is placed in front of you. Someone may come around to offer you freshly grated cheese or freshly ground pepper for your salad. It is acceptable to say yes to one or both, but be sure to indicate to the server when to stop. Never add salt or pepper to your own salad (or any course) until you’ve tasted it first. A place setting will be laid out with the utensils in order based on the dishes that will be served. If you are unsure which utensils are for which dish, follow this simple rule: work from the outside in. When your salad is served, use the fork and knife at the outermost edge of your place setting. They will be taken away after the salad course, and then you will move on to the next set of cutlery. When the lettuce and vegetables aren’t cut up into bite-sized pieces, it is acceptable to eat your salad with a knife and fork. Alternatively, if the salad is mostly in smaller pieces, you can use your fork alone to eat. When using just your fork, you can turn it on its side and use the side of the fork to cut a piece of lettuce or vegetable into a smaller piece before eating it. Don’t cut up your entire salad at once; instead, eat each bite as you cut it. Make sure they are small bites, so that you don’t end up with too large a mouthful of food, or a forkful that is too large to fit into your mouth. When you are ready to eat, bring your...


Remember a few key rules before you find your perfect outfit. Know where to get appropriate "old people" clothes. Dress like an old man. Dress like an old lady. Don't underestimate the power of the right accessory or prop. Finished.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before you put together every aspect of your outfit, there are a few rules of thumb that will help you achieve the right look.  Remember to bring lots of layers, whether it's a on old sweater for men, or a long cardigan for women. Old people are always cold and love their layers. All of your clothes should look like they've been through the wash about a hundred times. Achieve a convincing and faded look for your clothes. Either gender should wear a white wig or sprinkle baby powder in their hair to achieve a gray look. Men can consider getting a "wig" that makes them look bald. You can at least add highlights to the roots of your hair by rubbing white/gray eyeshadow. You should think thoughtfully about your outfit, but it should have the appearance of just being thrown on. If you want to look like an old person, you'll have to dress the part and to know where to look. The right clothes will make the difference between people loving your outfit and asking what the heck you're supposed to be for Halloween. Here are a few tips:  Ask your grandparents. The first and most obvious place to get the right clothes will be to raid your grandmother or grandfather's wardrobe. A real old person will have real old person stuff. Only ask your grandmother or grandfather if he or she has a good sense of humor about you wanting to look old. And even if they only let you look and their clothes, the clothes you see can give you inspiration. Check out thrift stores or garage sales for "old people" stuff. You may be able to find a real treasure for almost nothing. Dressing like an old man can be easy, but it will require some work for you to find the perfect old man outfit. To look the part, you'll have to think carefully about everything you're wearing, from your hat to your shoes. Here's what to do:  Put on a thin white t-shirt or a t-shirt that mentions their retirement community or bingo league. The right knitted vest will tie your old man outfit together. Wear tan, gray, or brown slacks that are way too short, and hike them...


Remember proper etiquette and manners. Read books or watch movies on the wisdom of karate. Realize that the mental and spiritual learnings keep coming as you progress.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Etiquette is how Karate-ka balance the power of karate and stay humble.  Enjoy your growing strength and power, but do it humbly.  Always bow entering and leaving the dojo.  Bow to teachers.  Say thank you. Say osu to your teachers and seniors. Also do the same if anyone says that to you. The "Do" in Karate-Do refers to the journey one takes in learning.  You can learn a lot by reading or watching about the great masters. "The Karate Kid" is not that deep (although based on Goju Ryu, the main focus is in the spiritual way of the Karate Do).  After practicing karate for just a few months, you will be able to how bad the kicks are in that movie.  Still, it does have a few lessons for us. Some comments from Master Kanazawa, the founder of SKIF include:  "By better breathing, your techniques get more fluid." "The most dangerous person in the Dojo is the brown belt who does not know control.  They should be strong and aggressive, but need to understand grace and humility to move to black belt." "You start training at first degree black belt." "After breaking my elbow on the block of ice, I understood Ki much more than before." "I no longer fear death."


Remember that 2 tablespoons is the size of a ping pong ball. Use the tip of your thumb as a guide for measuring a tablespoon. Use a cupped hand to measure 2 tablespoons of liquid. Note the portions of food that always equal a tablespoon.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you want to monitor your portion sizes when eating at restaurants, knowing how to visually identify a tablespoon is a valuable skill. As a reference, keep in mind that a ping pong ball generally represents two tablespoons. While this may be difficult to identify with liquids, solid substances will make the comparison pretty straightforward. As a general rule, the tip of your finger should measure about 1 teaspoon while the tip of your thumb should equal about a tablespoon. Hold your thumb next to whatever you are measuring to portion out a similar amount. Adjust the amount slightly if you thumb is larger or smaller than average. As a general rule, a cupped hand will hold about 2 tablespoons of liquid. If you do not have any measuring spoons or cups, you can approximate a tablespoon of liquid by filling up your cupped hand halfway. If your hands are especially small or large, you may add or omit liquid accordingly. Some foods have consistent portion sizes and can be broken down to a tablespoon easily. Keep these in mind for fast measuring the next time you are cooking, baking, or calorie counting. One tablespoon of sugar, for instance, is equal to 3 single serving packets of sugar, or 3 sugar cubes. As another example, a stick of butter is 8 tablespoons, so 1/8 of a stick of butter always equals a single tablespoon.


Remember that autism is a neurological disability, not a disease. Consider how to develop social skills. Figure out which limitations you can work on, and which ones you need to make peace with. Learn coping skills. Focus on your strengths. Work on your independent living skills. Find ways to deal with anxiety. Cultivate your special interests.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

It comes with benefits as well as challenges. Autistic people are usually funny, insightful, detail-oriented, and moral. They may need help with social skills, anxiety management, choice making, and understanding unwritten social rules. Since autistic people are very diverse, it's difficult to generalize about their traits.  Living well isn't just about learning how to handle your weaknesses. It involves building and capitalizing on your strengths. Certain areas of socializing, especially socializing with non-autistic people, may be difficult for you. Therapies such as RDI can help you work on learning how to interact with neurotypicals. Consider which different areas you might want to learn more about, such as...   Conversations in various social situations Job interview skills Asserting your needs and boundaries Reading facial expressions Determining whether someone is interested in talking You should only try to improve things that are reasonable, and it's not wise to push yourself to do things that hurt or exhaust you. Work with what you have, and remember that you can define your own success instead of pressuring yourself to do everything that non-autistics can do.   For example, you may be able to learn better listening skills, but you might not be able to erase your need for extra downtime. It would make sense to read articles about listening, but it wouldn't make sense to push yourself to work too hard and risk burnout. You might not be able to do all the things that non-autistic people can do. Certain things, like hosting large parties, pulling all-nighters, or driving in heavy traffic, may not be realistic goals for you (depending on your individual skills and needs). This is okay. Many autistic people have to deal with a lot of stress in life. Find things that make you feel better, such as talking to loved ones, stimming, engaging with special interests, spending time outside, exercising, playing with a pet, or other things that help you feel better. Make time for your mental health each day, and...


Remember that cats are usually self-cleaning. Keep the cat brushed. Use a damp washcloth to spot clean when necessary.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

For the most part, cats are very good at keeping themselves clean. You should really only need to bathe them if they get especially dirty, or if they have a condition that requires you to bathe them more often. Your vet will advise you if your cat needs to be bathed often. Brushing your cat regularly is a good way to keep it clean without giving it a bath. Brushing removes knots, mats, and debris from your cat’s fur. It also can improve the health of your cat’s skin overall, by helping to stimulate blood circulation, and getting rid of dead or loose fur and excess grease and oil.  Use a brush designed for cats, and be gentle. If you find a mat or knot that cannot easily be brushed out, carefully trim them out. Regular brushing to remove dead or excess hair can also help keep your cat from coughing up hairballs from self-grooming. When brushing, monitor your cat’s skin and hair for signs of excess shedding, fleas, ticks, or skin infections. If you notice any of these things, or anything abnormal, talk to your vet. Instead of immediately putting your cat in the bathtub if you notice some dirt on its fur, simply use a dampened washcloth to wipe it away. Not only will this prevent the drama that can sometimes come from trying to bathe a cat that doesn’t want to be bathed, it can also help prevent excess skin drying from bathing your cat too often.
