Also remember to update your own page regularly with information about your business efforts and links to relevant online articles. Certain online services offer ways to track mentions of your clients on social media or news platforms. Using one of these services, like Google Alerts, Talkwalker, or Mention, can help you find opportunities to get back in touch with your clients. You can set these services up to track the client's name, company, industry, or anything else of interest to them.  Once you get an alert on a client, try reaching out to them with a "this made me think of you" or "I heard about ____. What do you think about it?" When you see a posting of theirs which you like, comment on it or "like" it.  This is especially important for blog posts or website article that your clients write. Many of these posts don't get any comments or "likes." This means that your interaction will stand out. Just make sure that you leave a thoughtful comment that shows that you actually read the piece. When you see your clients are online at the same time as you are, say hello now and then. Take advantage of the ease of Facebook messenger or Google Chat and check in on your clients. LinkedIn allows you to recommend other members based on business interactions you've had in the past. Use this service to write a glowing recommendation of the client. If you're subtle about it, you may even be able to plug your own services in the process.  You may also see an opportunity to link previous clients together in a shared business interest. Recommend one client to the other, and make the introduction.

Connect your headphones. Use a cotton swab. Use compressed air.

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

If you can hear sound from your headphones after resetting the phone, there might be debris in the headphone port.  This debris might be sending a false signal to the phone that the headphones are plugged in, thus preventing sound from playing from the speakers.  Disconnect your headphones from your iPhone prior to cleaning the headphone port. Remove the cotton from one end of the cotton swab by pinching one end with your thumb and forefinger, then pulling your hands apart to remove the balled cotton.  Once removed, discard the cotton.  Pinch the same end again, loosely this time.  Roll the cotton swab along its axis to spool some of the loose cotton upon itself.  Put the cotton swab in the headphone jack.  Gently guide the narrow end of the cotton swab into the headphone jack.  Turn the cotton swab around a few times, then remove it.  Test the speakers to see if they work.  Scrubbing the headphone jack with a cotton swab is the easiest and most common way to clean the headphone port. Do not dampen the end of the cotton swab with water or rubbing alcohol.  This could damage your iPhone. Lay the phone on a flat surface.  Place the phone in such a position that its headphone port faces you.  Aim the canned air nozzle at the headphone port from the distance recommended by the canned air’s directions label.  Squeeze briefly, then release the handle.  Canned oxygen is a common tool used to clean PC parts, and you should be able to buy some at your local computer or electronics shop. If these steps don't fix the headphone jack on your iPhone, check inside the jack to make sure there are no foreign objects lodged there. Stuck objects may need to be carefully removed using a long, skinny tool like a paperclip or straw.

Connect your router to your computer and your modem. Open a web browser. Enter in your router’s address. Enter in your username and password. Reset your router if you can’t access it. Assign the router a new username and password.

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

Use Ethernet cables to connect your modem to the WAN/WLAN/Internet port on your router, and connect your computer to the “1”, “2”, “3”, or “4” port on the router. Your router’s configuration page can be accessed by any computer that is connected to the same network. When configuring your router, you will have the best results if you connect with a computer that is wired to the router with an Ethernet cable. Routers are accessed through your web browser by entering the IP address into the address bar. The IP address varies a bit by manufacturer, but most are the same or very close. These are some of the more popular manufacturers and the associated addresses:  Linksys - http://192.168.1.1 3Com - http://192.168.1.1 D-Link - http://192.168.0.1 Belkin - http://192.168.2.1 Netgear - http://192.168.1.1 Most routers have their default address printed in the documentation or on a sticker on the router itself. You can also look it up online on the manufacturer’s website. Before you access the configuration page, you’ll be asked for a username and password. Most routers will come with a default username/password combo, while some allow you to proceed without entering anything.  Your router’s documentation will tell you the default username and password required. They may also be printed on the router itself. ”admin” is one of the most common default usernames. ”admin” or “password” are two of the most common passwords. If you’ve looked up your default address and username/password combo and you still can’t access your router, you can reset it to factory defaults to clear out any changes that may have been made. This is useful for secondhand routers or old changes that you can’t remember.  You can reset your router by pressing the Reset button on it. This button is usually small and recessed, and can only be reached by a paper clip. Some routers have a button that can be pressed more easily. After pressing the reset button, wait 30-60 seconds and then try entering the router’s address and username/password combination...


Conquer your hunger with zesty Spam street tacos. Top a salad with Spam for a light lunch. Whip up some Spam fried rice. Serve Spam potstickers as an addictive appetizer.

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

Load corn tortillas with chunks of pan-fried Spam alongside pickled red onions, cotija cheese, and cilantro. Customize your tacos with add-ons like grilled jalapeños, mango, sour cream, and homemade guacamole or pico de gallo.   Play around with devising your own specialty fusion items using Spam tacos as inspiration, such as Hawaiian pineapple and teriyaki wonton tacos or Mediterranean-style Spam gyros.  Create a taco bar for your next summer party and encourage your guests to build their own Spam tacos. Try it with scrambled eggs, chopped jalapenos, salsa fresca, and black beans rolled into a warm corn tortilla. Cut cooked spam into small cubes or thin strips and transfer them to a bed of mixed greens and veggies. Leave room for halved hard-boiled eggs, tomatoes, cucumbers, and cheese for a thrifty take on the classic chef salad, or get creative and invent your own unique salad recipe.  Bake or microwave your Spam to cut the calorie count a bit and keep your Spam salad from turning into a cheat meal. Spam can make a welcome addition to other kinds of salads, as well, including pasta salad, ham salad, macaroni salad, and egg salad. Toss cubed Spam with white rice, eggs, peas, carrots, and a stir fry sauce made from soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil and white pepper. Add some scallions, diced pineapple, or thin-sliced fresno peppers to turn up the flavor a few degrees. If you’re short on time, cook up your rice and Spam and stir in a bag of frozen veggies and 2–3 tablespoons (30–44 mL) of bottled stir fry sauce. Combine finely-diced Spam with grated ginger, minced garlic and green onion, chopped cabbage, and sesame oil. Stuff your filling into store-bought dumpling skins and crimp the edges closed. Blanch your potstickers in a pot of boiling water, then cool them in an ice bath and brown them on both sides in a well-oiled skillet.  Dunk your dumplings in sweetened soy or tangy gyoza sauce, or make your own Asian Tahini dipping sauce to continue with the trend.  Spam could also be used in place of pork and...


Consider 1/2-HP models for standard doors. Consider 3/4-HP models for insulated or one-piece, wooden doors. Consider 1-HP models for oversized or industrial doors. Consider AC versus DC motors.

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

1/2-HP is the standard for most garage doors, and it is also the most popular motor speed. Depending on the type of drive you pair it with, the 1/2-HP motor can lift most garage door types. However, while it can lift most door types, well-insulated garage doors and one-piece, wooden doors can put extra strain on 1/2-HP motors that might lead to more wear and tear than with something more powerful. 3/4-HP motors are the next step up from 1/2-HP models. The additional power makes these motors a more durable, longer-lasting option, but the increased durability comes with a higher price tag as well. The extra power doesn’t just increase the life of these motors, but it also means they’re capable of lifting heavier doors more easily without as much wear. Door styles that might benefit from the additional power include one-piece wooden doors on two-car garages or specialty doors with heavy insulation and wind-load ratings. 1-HP motors offer the maximum in efficiency and power. These motors are perfect for the heaviest garage doors, including oversized doors and commercial or industrial doors. When it comes to a standard, sectioned garage door, the extra power may prove unnecessary for your needs, especially at the larger price. In addition to the horsepower of a motor, you should also consider the current. Direct current motors are most common on belt drives, but more manufacturers are incorporating them into other drive types as well. Direct current motors are typically more expensive, but they offer the added benefit of soft starts and stops, which means that the drive begins a gradual lift and stop on the door, and this equates to much less noise than a motor that jerks to life and shakes the door. Direct current motors are also more likely to provide backup battery options, allowing you to get several uses out of your garage door even during a power outage.


Consider NFP when you can regulate your menstrual cycle. Approach NFP with serious dedication. Try NFP for stable, monogamous relationships. Attempt NFP when you don't need any guarantees. Use NFP to address religious concerns.

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

While it is possible to use natural family planning when you have an irregular menstrual cycle, the practice will be more difficult under those circumstances. Natural family planning is easiest for women with regular, easily tracked cycles. If you have an irregular cycle, consider talking with your OB/GYN for additional assistance in tracking your cycles before attempting NFP. Your OB/GYN can also review other family planning options with you. While natural family planning can be highly effective when followed correctly, it also requires considerable dedication. You'll need to track the changes to your bodily consistently. Additionally, you also need to be willing to abstain from sex during your fertile periods. Since NFP can also help you become pregnant when you're ready to start a family, it can also be a good practice to use for these purposes. You'll still need to remain dedicated to charting your changes, but there's little to no risk involved when intending to get pregnant using NFP. Natural family planning does not protect against STIs, so if you plan on having multiple sexual partners, it would be safest to use condoms instead of or in conjunction with NFP. Additionally, errors in calculation or lax record-keeping can increase your risk of an accidental pregnancy while using NFP. An unplanned pregnancy can be more difficult to handle when you are not in a long-term, stable relationship. Since errors in charting can reduce the effectiveness of NFP and may result in unplanned pregnancies, it's best to try NFP if you're financially, emotionally, and physically able to handle becoming pregnant, even when becoming pregnant is not your desired outcome. One positive of NFP is that it costs little to no money to use since you won't have to worry about prescriptions, devices, or extra visits to the doctor. That said, if you aren't able to remain consistent in your use of NFP, an unplanned pregnancy may cost you more in the long run than using standard forms of contraception would. Some faith traditions hold a...


Consider a "joint tenants with right of survivorship" account. Opt for a "tenants by the entirety" account to sign off on each transaction. Open a "convenience" account to manage money for another person. Get a "joint tenants in common" account if one of you wants to will your money elsewhere. Get a "Joint POD/ITF" account if you both want to leave your money to another.

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

These accounts are the most common type of joint account. They are available to everyone, but popular with couples. With a "joint tenants with rights of survivorship" bank account, owners have equal access and equal responsibility for the account.  If one partner dies, all of the funds pass on to the surviving owner. This account is not subject to probate after an owner dies. Creditors can collect against this account, no matter which of you deposited the balance. This option is only available to couples, whether by marriage, civil union, or domestic partnership. Neither of you may withdraw money without the permission of the other.  Creditors cannot collect on the total balance of the account, but only on funds acquired by the couple and only with permission of both owners. This account is not subject to probate. If one owner dies, the entirety of the balance becomes the property of the surviving owner. If you have an elderly or incapacitated relative who needs you to manage their money, you can open a convenience account with them and act as their agent. The funds in the account belong to the owner. As the agent, you use the funds to pay the owner's bills and manage their transactions.  After the owner's death, funds will be distributed according to their will. Creditors may be allowed to collect against the account. If you are the agent, your creditors may ask you to prove that you do not have ownership over the bank account. These are popular with couples and with business partners, but anyone can open them. You may divide your ownership equally or give one owner more responsibility and access. You will each be entitled to a predetermined percentage of the account.  If one owner dies, an estate will distribute their share of the balance according to their will or trust. This type of account is subject to probate. If there's no will or trust, the funds of the deceased will be distributed to their closest relatives. Creditors may still collect against the entire account, however, even if one partner...


Consider a 'pinch' prune. Try selective pruning. Do a full prune. Try corrective pruning. Do a hard prune.

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

There are several approaches you can use to prune hibiscus. One light approach is to "pinch" the plant by cutting off just the ends of the branches near the top, so as to stimulate a bit of growth without losing the bulk of the plant. This is the mildest form of pruning and is the safest for beginners to accomplish. Pinching should be done primarily on young or small plants, as they don't need much pruning early in their life to promote lots of new growth. Cut the tips of each branch off at the top-most node or higher. This is the next step up from 'pinching'  your hibiscus and involves cutting off larger sections of your plant, but only in certain locations so as to maintain the general size and shape of the bush. In selective pruning, you should find nodes that are ⅓ of the way from the top of the branch, and cut just above these. Do this for most or all of your branches to develop locations for new growth. Full pruning is the process of cutting back an entire hibiscus plant early in the season, so that you produce the loveliest crop of flowers available. Full prunes are bittersweet, as although they do cause your bush to produce the most flowers, they require cutting back nearly all of the hibiscus plant to start. Cut each branch on the hibiscus bush so that only 2-3 nodes remain per branch. Remember that you should never cut off more than ⅔ of any portion of a branch. As the name implies, corrective pruning is done when you need to fix an issue on the plant. Typically corrective pruning must be done on damaged or diseased portions of a hibiscus plant. Cut down as far as you must on damaged branches, until green wood is exposed after a cut. If you prune the branch but the wood is hard and white, it is dead and will not recover with new growth. A hard prune is done only in the most drastic of situations when a hibiscus bush is nearly entirely dead or damaged. A hard prune involves cutting down all the branches to expose living growth, hopefully causing the plant to start growing again over time. A hard...


Consider a basic lobe piercing. Consider a helix cartilage piercing. Mix it up with a tragus piercing. Consider a conch. Consider other cartilage piercings.

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

Ear piercings are the most common type of body piercing. You'll see pierced ears at church and at a punk rock concert. Most schools and jobs allow pierced ears, but they can also be be covered with hairstyles quite easily.   Pros: Stylish and simple, a basic ear-lobe piercing is a good intro. If you want something a little more wild, you can get your lobes pierced multiple times, or stretch your piercings with gauges after they heal.  Cons: Lobe piercings aren't the most exciting choice, if you're looking for something a little more "out there." Still, it is a good introduction. The cartilage high on your ear is commonly pierced, versatile, and relatively painless. This area of the ear makes for an excellent and trendy piercing option.   Pros: You're piercing through thin cartilage, and helix piercings are relatively simple and easy to clean. It's also versatile enough to connect to other piercings, though it stands out from a traditional lobe piercing. You can pierce the helix or the antihelix, slightly lower on the ear.  Cons: This piercing sticks out a little more on your face, though it is easy to cover with certain hairstyles. The tragus is the cartilage in front of the ear canal, which partially covers it like a small flap. While this is a somewhat difficult piercing, it stands out a lot and offers a unique piercing option.   Pros: This advanced piercing stands out from the crowd. A small, tasteful stud or ring in the tragus can be a big statement. It's also a little painful, which can be a good way to show off your tolerance.  Cons: Because the cartilage is a little thicker than the top of the ear, this piercing hurts. Tragus earrings are also susceptible to wax build up, making frequent cleaning a necessity. This piercing can also be somewhat uncomfortable when wearing headphones, especially ear-buds. The fold just about the tragus is the "daith," which is usually a little easier and less painful to pierce, but looks quite similar to the tragus piercing. Think about a daith, if you're concerned about...


Consider a cheaper and simpler point and shoot camera. Consider a digital SLR camera for more control. Don't assume a high price or popular brand means quality. Pick a camera that suits your mode of transport. Find a camera you can hold comfortably. Count the cost of the accessories.

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

If you want a simple, inexpensive camera with a low learning curve, consider a point and shoot digital camera. These have a viewfinder that's simply a "window" through the camera, rather than an exact image of what the camera will photograph, and may have fewer settings to alter. The picture quality will likely be worse because of this, but there is a wide range of quality in point and shoot cameras, so do not rule them out before you investigate. An SLR digital camera (sometimes referred to as DSLR) provides you with much more creative control. Most of these have both automatic and manual adjustment for lighting and focusing. If you want additional control over the technical aspects of photography, or if you enjoy playing around with color settings and flash, look for digital SLR cameras. Be aware that these are almost always more expensive than point and shoot cameras. SLR stands for "single-lens reflex" and describes the mirror and prism system that sends an accurate image to the viewfinder. Nowadays, most digital cameras of this type have an electronic display, but they are still referred to as SLR or DSLR cameras. Remember that sometimes an inexpensive camera will satisfy your needs better than a more expensive one. Similarly, brand names are sometimes associated with higher quality, but that does not mean a less well known brand won't satisfy you. Judge cameras based on their qualities, not on the hype of a price tag or advertisement. Before you get carried away with the extra features and higher quality of a fancy camera, keep in mind that you'll have to carry the camera away as well. Generally speaking, a small camera is lower quality than a larger one, but the sacrifice may be worth it if you plan to carry the camera on a whirlwind tour of Europe. Consider the case it comes with as well, and how much protection it provides. You may wish to purchase a higher quality case if you are going to be traveling. Soft camera cases are portable and easy to store, while hard camera cases provide better...


Consider a chemical peel to remove the outer layers of your skin. Seek emergency care for signs of an allergic reaction to acne products.

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

Your dermatologist can do this simple procedure in their office. It will remove the outer layers of your skin to help treat your acne and improve the look of your skin. It also helps reduce acne scarring from previous breakouts.Your dermatologist will give you instructions on how to care for your skin before and after the procedure. You likely won’t be able to wear makeup immediately after your procedure, and you’ll need to stay out of the sun while your skin heals. Both over-the-counter and prescription acne products commonly cause minor redness, irritation, and itching. While it’s normal to notice these minor changes in your skin, you could have other side effects if you’re allergic to a product. Watch for the following symptoms, which might mean you’re having a reaction: Swelling in your eyes, lips, tongue, or face Difficulty breathing Tightness in your throat Feeling faint


Consider a classic fashion boot. Choose a tall boot for skirts, dresses, and leg-hugging pants. Get away with a chunkier heel. Wear your favorite heels or flats. Avoid sandals.

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

Fashion boots come in a variety of heel thicknesses, heel heights, and boot heights. A boot that extends just above your ankle looks classic and works well with both pants and skirts. A narrow heel with a little height also has a timeless, versatile appeal. Knee-high boots and boots that extend past the knee work best for outfits that permit them to be seen. Wear them with skirts or over skinny jeans. Chunky heels have a heavy look to them, but coordinate well with heavier fall clothing like corduroy pants or sweaters. Boots may be a highly fashionable autumn item, but heels and flats still work well for fall. These styles transcend the season. Sandals call to mind the warmer seasons of spring and summer. They often clash with many of the materials associate with fall clothing.


Consider a condom for STI risk reduction. Use a condom if you do not fully trust your sexual partner. Seek emergency contraception if your condom breaks or otherwise malfunctions. Use a condom as backup protection if becoming pregnant would be unthinkable.

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

Before making the decision to forego condom use, it is important to consider the role that condoms can play in STI risk reduction as well as in preventing pregnancy. Even if you are using other contraceptive devices, such as a hormonal form of birth control, other contraceptive methods do nothing to prevent you from STIs (sexually transmitted infections). Therefore, condoms have an important advantage when it comes to practicing safe sex. Condoms protect you from STIs by reducing genital-to-genital contact, and by also blocking the ejaculatory fluid from the man's penis from getting into the woman's vagina. Both of these types of contact are ways in which an infection can be passed from one person to another. If you are in a long-term committed monogamous relationship, you will know whether your partner is taking alternative forms of birth control, such as taking "the pill" or using an IUD, as you will have developed a trusting relationship with that person and have presumably discussed the best contraceptive strategies for the two of you. However, if you have a new sexual partner who you do not yet know well enough to fully trust, it is important to understand that a condom can be one of the more reliable methods of contraception.  If you are a man, you can never know for sure if a new female sexual partner is actually on "the pill" (or another birth control method), and taking it reliably. It is possible for a woman to be dishonest about using birth control while purposefully becoming pregnant. Similarly, a man may be dishonest to a woman about having a vasectomy when he actually does not. Or, he may say he will withdraw and then fail to do so. Using a condom is a clear and straightforward method of contraception that does not require trust on anyone's behalf. Condoms have an 82% effectiveness at preventing pregnancy. However, if your condom breaks while having sex, it is important to seek a form of emergency contraception immediately.  You can purchase emergency contraception at your local pharmacy or...


Consider a general purpose fluke anchor. Research plow anchors for areas of high or changing current. Only use mushroom anchors for light use. Research other types of anchors for specialized uses. Use several anchors for different purposes. Use high quality anchors. Make sure you have deck cleats or anchor rollers suitable for your anchors. Learn how to pick a nylon anchor line. Understand which anchor chain is best to use. Consider using both materials. Use rope or chain of sufficient diameter.

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

A fluke or Danforth anchor relies less on its weight than on its design, which consists of two flat, pointed flukes extending at a 30º angle from the anchor rod. This is one of the more popular designs on the market, and in soft mud or hard sand, has more staying power by weight than any other type. However, its broad-fluked design may prevent it from reaching bottom in a strong current, and like most anchors, it will have trouble catching on rocks and other hard bottoms. Aluminum variations of the Danforth design, such as the Fortress, have excellent holding power. Some of these also have adjustable flukes, which can be made broader when anchoring in soft mud. A large aluminum fluke anchor may make a good storm anchor. The plow anchor is named for the plow-shaped wedge attached by a swivel to the shaft. It is effective in soft bottoms, and somewhat better in grass than other lightweight anchors. These tend to be heavier than fluke anchors of the same size, and thus will set more easily (though with somewhat less holding power) than fluke anchors. The ability of the shaft to swivel in the direction it is pulled without yanking the main anchor makes the plow anchor less likely to unfasten when the boat is pulled a different direction. Plow anchors have no protruding flukes or pieces that the anchor line or chain can catch on. However, unless you have a bow roller, plow anchors can be difficult to store. Mushroom anchors look like a disc or dish at the base of the anchor shaft. They don't have much holding power, but are a good choice for small boats that make short stops in areas with soft ground. If your boat is small enough for the size of mushroom anchor you choose, it may be your best bet for heavily weeded areas. If poking a hole in your vessel is a concern, mushroom anchors have no sharp edges and are less likely to damage thin hulled boats such as composite canoes, kayaks and inflatables. Many electric anchors lowered by the push of a button are mushroom anchors. Many more types of anchor exist, and no...


Consider a group costume.

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

If you're trick-or-treating with some friends, one cool way to wriggle out of being original is to have matching costumes. This can be hilarious for onlookers who see a bunch of the same characters or similar ones coming to their door for trick-or-treating.  Either choose the same costumes or stick to a theme, such as Sesame Street characters. Consult your friends first to agree upon an idea that everyone likes. Sometimes there are online sales for costumes that include three or four similar costumes.


Consider a long term approach. Decide to quit smoking. Set a quit smoking date. Create a quit smoking plan. Prepare for your quit smoking date. Anticipate stress.

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

If your efforts to quickly quit smoking fail, you might want to try a long term approach that requires some planning and patience. Planning ahead can help you understand the obstacles associated with quitting and better form strategies that will overcome them.  Consult your doctor about creating a plan to quit smoking. There are many websites and “quitlines” that can help you develop a plan. Think about why you want to quit and what that means for you. Weigh the pros and cons of quitting and ask yourself if you are ready for the commitment. Talk with your friends and family about your decision.  What are the potential health risks of continued smoking? What is the financial impact of your dependence on smoking? What is the impact on your family and friends? Write down a list of the reasons you want to quit so that you can reference it later when want to smoke. Choose a date to quit and stick with it. Make it far enough in the future that you have to prepare but not so far that you lose interest — try giving yourself two weeks. A firm deadline for stopping will help you mentally prepare and give you a concrete timeline. Adhering to a strict regimen is essential to sticking with your plan and overcoming your dependency. Avoid moving back your quit date. This will set a bad precedent and make it harder to adhere to future start dates. Research different strategies for quitting and consult with your doctor about the methods that might work best for you. Weigh the pros and cons of different strategies and how they might impact your life. Consider which methods you are realistically capable of adhering to. Consider whether you want to quit cold turkey, use medication, or try a therapy. Each has its own pros and cons. Throw away any smoking paraphernalia that might trigger your addiction. Keep a log of your smoking activity leading up to your quit day, as this may help you identify the times you tend to smoke (such as right after a meal) and you can make sure you have NRTs, medications, or other strategies prepared...


Consider a magnum for a party. Buy standard bottles for dinner. Go more expensive for special occasions. Make sure it's appropriate.

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

A magnum is a double bottle of wine or champagne. One reason it works well for a party is it's fairly impressive to look at. Plus, because it's double the size, it will last much longer than a single bottle of wine. Your host will appreciate your thoughtfulness.  When choosing a wine for a party, sparkling is usually a good option. If you insist on bringing a standard bottle of wine to a party, give it to the hosts before the party, and let them decide whether they want to serve it at the party or not. On the other hand, when you've been invited for dinner to a small gathering, such as a dinner for about four people, a regular bottle is appropriate. A regular bottle will provide enough wine for each person at the dinner, which is why it's appropriate. Ask the hosts ahead of time what they will be serving. Then you can get a wine that matches the dinner, such as a white wine for fish. If you're not sure what goes with what type of food, ask at the store. When it comes to weddings or other big special occasions, such as birthdays or Christmas dinner, plan to spend a bit more on the bottle. Weddings especially call for a more expensive bottle. If you don't want to spend that much, skip the wine. You'll be safer buying something off their registry. That is, you don't want to buy wine if the host doesn't drink wine. For instance, maybe the host enjoys alcohol, but they don't like wine. Another situation you may run into is the host may not drink at all, due to personal choice, health reasons, or religious reasons. If you're not sure, ask.


Consider a makeup primer. Skip foundation. Conceal where needed. Set your face with powder.

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

Makeup primers provide light coverage and help your makeup last longer throughout the day. You can even opt for a primer that includes a moisturizer, which allows you to skip applying a moisturizer in the morning! Apply a dot of primer to your nose, then start to blend outward. Add more primer as needed to cover your entire face. When you’re going for a natural makeup look that you can wear to school, heavy foundation is a big no-no. If you feel like your skin still needs more coverage than a concealer can provide, use a makeup primer, light tinted moisturizer, or BB cream to even out your skin tone. Apply it with clean fingers to keep the coverage light.  Make sure that your tinted moisturizer or BB cream is oil-free so it’s less likely to clog your pores. If your skin is extremely oily, you may want to skip a general moisturizer and just use a tinted version so you can moisturize and even out your complexion in one step. While tinted moisturizers and BB creams are usually more sheer than traditional foundations, it’s still important to choose a shade that matches your skin tone. Test it by blending a small amount across your cheek, and checking it in natural light to see if it’s a match. Even if you’re using a sheer tinted moisturizer or BB cream, make sure to blend it over your jawline and down onto your neck. You don’t want to wind up with a line across your jaw where your makeup ends. It’s common for pre-teens and teens to have breakouts, so you may have some spots that you want to conceal. Dab concealer just on those spots, and blend it with a clean finger or concealer brush.  Make sure to choose a concealer that matches your skin tone as closely as possible. Otherwise, you’ll only wind up drawing attention to the areas that you’re trying to hide. As with your moisturizer, choose a concealer that’s oil-free. If you have acne, you may also want to look for one that contains acne-fighting ingredients, such as salicylic acid, to help fight the breakout while concealing it. If you’re using a stick concealer...


Consider a neutral color. Keep it unadorned. Gravitate toward loose-fit styles. Remember, any rule can be broken depending on the occasion.

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

Bright colors and prints tend to look a little juvenile and will make your style significantly less chic. Black, white, grey, brown, or tan works best, and neutral colors are more versatile overall. If you do want a color, opt for a classic color, like red or blue, and choose a gem tone or a bold color without gravitating toward neon shades. Avoid styles with pompoms, beadwork, or zippers. A simple knit beanie looks classic and stylish, but styles with decorations or embellishments tend to look a little less sophisticated. If you do opt for embellishments, look for a subtle embellishment like decorative brown buttons. Beanies with elastic in them tend to tighten around your forehead. Aside from being uncomfortable and leaving a red line across your skin, a tight-fitting beanie tends to look a little less fashionable. For very casual events, like an outdoor football game, poofs or other adornments can be fun additions to your look. What matters most is that you feel comfortable and happy with your look.


Consider a reverse mortgage. Sell your home at retirement. Make maximum contributions to any retirement accounts you have access to.

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

Reverse mortgages are a type of loan on home equity available to senior citizens. The borrower gets a loan for the value of the homeowner's equity—the equity isn't withdrawn directly. The loans are structured in the following ways:  The equity can be treated as line of credit. Like a credit card, the borrower can use the credit in the home as needed (although there may be monthly maximums). The borrower can also a monthly payment for a fixed number of years. This is called a term payment plan. Even if the value of the home decreases, you'll still get the same amount each month.  You can also opt for a tenured payment plan. This is a lot like a term payment plan, except the term lasts until the borrower leaves the home.   Even if payments under the reverse mortgage stop, the homeowner cannot be evicted from the home. There's certainly nothing to prevent you from selling your home outright and moving into something smaller. This strategy makes sense for a lot of people. Oftentimes a retiree is living in the same home where they raised their family, but with half the inhabitants. How much you spend to buy your new home will depend on how much you made on the sale of the old one. Nonetheless, try to find something as modest as possible. You want to maximize the cash you get from the sale of the home. That way, you can invest it or purchase an annuity. Even if retirement's only a few years away, investing a little bit now can add up quickly. However, all retirement accounts are not created equal.  You should invest in the following order:  Invest in 401(k)s first. Since your employer is (probably) matching your contribution up to a certain limit, this should be the first account you contribute to. Anyone over age 50 can contribute up to $24000 per year, and that doesn't count employer contributions. Invest in IRAs last. Since there's no matching employer contribution, invest in your IRAs last.


Consider a roommate. Rent out your extra space with Air bnb, where vacationers rent your couch, living room, bedroom or house for a slightly lower rate than a hotel room. Consider moving to a city or state with a lower cost of living. See if you qualify for low-income housing. Bundle your home, car and other insurance.

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

If you have an extra room, try subletting for a few months of the year. In large cities, you can do this without taking on a roommate for a year lease. If you get good reviews, you may get more business. If you find yourself working from home or employed by a flexible company, move away from states like New York, New Jersey and California (all notoriously very expensive) and consider Arkansas, Georgia, Texas or Tennessee or possibly Virginia (stay away from the DC area). Look for the lowest cost of living with the best job prospects in your field. You may fall within the income threshold. Authorities suggest paying no more than 30 percent of your monthly paycheck on housing, otherwise you won’t be able to afford other necessities. By using the same company, you can get a discounted rate on all these necessary monthly expenses.


Consider a slightly lighter load for your first term. Start any classes that are prerequisites for other classes you will need early on. Try to find out whether any classes you will need in your first year are only offered during certain terms. Consider the types of homework you will have as you choose your schedule.

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

This doesn't mean slacking off. Rather, it means taking into account that you will be new to the school and settling in. It takes a little time to get used to the rigors of your chosen major, and possibly also to living on your own. Doing a little less in the first term can give you the space you need to set up efficiently and to be prepared for the future overload terms. For example, if you need calculus before you can take physics, try to take calculus right away. Feed these into your schedule first, so that the other classes can be worked in around these classes. A class about literature or history may have a lot of reading and writing, including term papers. A class like chemistry or physics will have problem sets for homework and perhaps labs and lab reports. These different kinds of homework require you to use different skills and study methods and possibly require different amounts of time. That's not a bad thing, just something to keep in mind as you choose your schedule.


Consider a word you want to encode. Start writing. Include misspellings to hide your message. Check your code.

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

The first step that you will need to take is to think of a word or phrase that you want to encode.  This keyword or phrase will be one that you need to keep secret, encoding it in a larger document using spelling errors.  Anyone reviewing your message will likely overlook simple spelling errors and let your message slip through.  Try to keep you message simple and short.  “SEND HELP” would be a good example. Messages such as “PLEASE HELP ME I'M IN DANGER” might be too long or too difficult to hide using the spelling error code. Write your letter as you normally would, using your natural writing style and voice.  It's important to remember that you will need to spell every regular word normally to make this method work.  Any actual spelling errors could change your message. Much of the letter you send using this method will look completely normal. You will need to hide your message by spelling it out using spelling errors.  These incorrect letters will be read one-by-one, building your message and deciphering the code.  Think about how you can spell words in your message incorrectly to hide your message.  Imagine you want to hide the word “RUN” in your document. “Terrific! Nevur have been there. Another day perhaps?” would encode the word RUN using spelling errors.  The letter R is missing from "terrific", the letter U is used instead of E in "never" and the word "another" has an extra letter N. Try to space out your spelling errors.  Make them look like actual mistakes. Don't randomly place letters that wouldn't naturally be mistaken.  For example, “I saw a ghost” would likely stand out too much, if trying to include the letter Z in your message. Before you send your code off, make sure your message is properly encoded.  Each spelling error should build your coded message and allow the recipient to decipher the code.  If everything is in order, you can send your message off and await a reply.  If you missed any letters that make up your code, go back and add them in. It's important that you spell everything...


Consider acupuncture to prevent seizures. Talk to your vet about Chinese herbal formulas. Discuss changing your dog’s diet.

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

While natural remedies aren’t backed by scientific research, many people claim that their dogs have experienced relief by using certain methods. Acupuncture is the process of inserting thin, long needles into certain pressure points, which might relieve pain and stop the frequency of seizures. Talk to your vet before trying acupuncture for your dog.  Keep in mind that acupuncture is usually used in addition to medication, not in place of it. Ask your vet, family, and friends for recommendations for professional acupuncturists. You might also want to check out online reviews. Only allow a professional with experience treating dogs to work on your pet. Some people believe that Chinese herbal medication can help reduce seizures in dogs. Ask your vet if herbal remedies might help your pet.  Remember that herbal formulas may not be proven effective. Don't delay treating your dog with medication. Gastrointestinal upset, such as diarrhea, is a common side-effect. It may seem as though your dog gets worse before better. That is common. Herbs might be used to prolong the effects of acupuncture sessions. Since your dog’s food has a big impact on their overall health, it makes sense that changing their diet might help control the seizures. Some vets recommend a high-fat, low-carb diet, or a low salt diet, which may reduce seizures. Talk to your vet before changing your dog’s food.  Ask your vet for a dog food that is right for your pet. You can also ask about making your own dog food, if you want to try that. Ask your vet about giving your dog fish oil supplements, which might help prevent seizures. It's usually safe to give your dog "people" fish oil, but there are also special pills for dogs. Ask your vet which is right for your dog, and follow the vet's dosage instructions, rather than those on the bottle.


Consider acupuncture. Get neurotoxin injections. Learn about laser resurfacing. Ask about chemical treatments.

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

A trained, licensed acupuncturist might be able to reduce your forehead wrinkles by toning the muscles in your face.  You'll usually need between 10 to 12 treatments, which will be administered twice a week for five to six weeks. The acupuncturist will insert fine needles into strategic points along the body and face. These needles stimulate the production of collagen and elastin. As a result, your skin naturally plumps up and the circulation to your face improves, which should cause your forehead wrinkles to visibly soften. Botox and other neurotoxins block the nerve impulses that cause muscle contractions in your forehead. As a result, the wrinkles you currently have look less noticeable and won't get any deeper.  Ask for the lowest amount of product they can give and still soften your wrinkles. In the beginning, you may only need 9-15 units to treat your forehead. Aside from Botox, other common neurotoxins include Xeomin and Dysport. Neurotoxin treatments eventually wear off, so you will need another round of injections roughly every 3-4 months if you like the results enough to keep them. During this treatment, the doctor or technician will direct energy from a laser or pulsed diode light directly to your forehead. The procedure can last anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours. The intense light will remove the top layer of skin, creating a mild wound that usually won't be visible to the naked eye. In response, your skin should activate its natural production of collagen and produce new smooth, wrinkle-free skin. The most common chemical treatments used to treat forehead wrinkles include chemical peels and dermabrasion.  During a chemical peel, the doctor will use different chemicals to burn the top layer of skin. Your body should respond to the damage by producing more collagen and, effectively, more smooth skin. During dermabrasion, the doctor will use a mild chemical crystal and a vacuum device to chip away the top layer of skin. This draws evenly textured skin to the surface and should cause light...


Consider adding a varnish to your painting once the paint dries. Clean your paint brushes and work station. Save any unused paint. Leave your painting to dry. Show off your artwork.

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

Although it isn’t required, many painters add a finishing coat of varnish to seal the acrylic paints. This helps the paint to chemically bond to the canvas, and protects it better from damage. It is imperative that you clean your paint brushes right after finishing up with them. Acrylic paint can severely damage and ruin paint brushes if left to dry in the bristles. Wash the brushes with cold water and soap until the water runs clear (warm/hot water will set the paint in the brushes). Wipe up any paint on your painting surface, and rinse the jars with water. Acrylic paint will last for several months in an air-tight container, so if you have any extra set it aside for a future painting. Scoop the paint into small containers with lids, or seal it into your stay-wet palette. Place your painting in a location to dry for 1–2 days. Acrylic paints have a very short dry time, but they should be left in an area where they won’t be disturbed in order to cure. Art is meant to be shared, so showcase your newly finished acrylic painting so that others can see your handiwork. Have it matted and framed if it is on paper or canvas board, or simply hang it in your home. To maintain an acrylic painting properly, you have to know the best way to clean it.
