Watch for symptoms of excessively heavy bleeding. Look for periods longer than a week. See your gynecologist if you're experiencing symptoms of heavy or extended cycles. Expect a physical exam. Be ready for blood tests, ultrasounds, and other diagnostic tests. Discuss treatments with your doctor.

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

Many people have heavy cycles, but it becomes excessive if you bleed through a pad or tampon in an hour and do so for several hours in a row. Another symptom of excessive bleeding is having to use more than one type of hygiene product, such as using a tampon and pad together.  Other symptoms of excessive flow include having to wake up to change your pad or tampon at night and not being able to do normal activities because your period is so heavy. You may also see bigger blood clots in your pads, about the size of a quarter. A typical period lasts between 3 and 7 days. If yours is lasting longer than a week, that's considered excessive. If you are having very long periods or you don't have breaks between periods, you need to see a doctor. If you're bleeding heavily for many days in a row, you may start to notice signs of anemia, including extreme tiredness and shortness of breath. Your doctor will ask you about the symptoms you're experiencing. They'll also discuss your medical history with you so come prepared. It can help to track how many pads or tampons you're using on your period. That gives your doctor an idea of how much you're bleeding. If you're having symptoms of heavy bleeding, your doctor is going to want to do a pelvic exam. During the exam, you'll be asked to remove your clothes and get up on an exam table. You will need to spread your legs so your doctor can examine your vaginal area.  The doctor will insert a speculum in your vagina. This might be uncomfortable, but it shouldn't be too painful. The doctor will also do a pap smear, where they take a small sampling of cells from your uterus. Your doctor may also take a small tissue sample for a biopsy. If possible, your doctor may want to wait until the bleeding has stopped to have this exam. Diagnostic tests will help your doctor determine a diagnosis and proper treatment for you. For a blood test, a technician will draw blood from your arm and then send it off to be tested. For an ultrasound, a medical professional will pass an electronic wand...


Watch for symptoms of hammer toe. Consider your risk for developing hammer toe. Get a diagnosis of hammer toe. Protect your toes. Use an ice pack. Get injections. Consider surgery.

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

You may notice corns or calluses on the toes that develop hammer toe. If you have hammer toe, you'll feel pain, especially when you wear shoes that constrict your toes. Other symptoms include:  Inflammation, redness and tenderness Open sores Involuntary bending of the toes (contracture) Shoes are one of the biggest factors in developing hammer toes that you can control. If you frequently wear high heels, shoes that are too small, or shoes that don't give your toes enough space, you are more likely to get hammer toes. Other conditions can cause hammer toes, such as:  Genes that cause flat feet or high arches Neuromuscular diseases like diabetes which can put additional pressure on your toes If you have any foot pain or symptoms of hammer toe, see a foot specialist (podiatrist). This is especially important if your toes bend involuntarily. Early treatment could prevent the need for surgery. The podiatrist will physically examine your foot, although an x-ray or other imaging may be needed to make a diagnosis. Wear protective padding for painful corns and calluses to protect your toes from further irritation. You can also get over-the-counter non-medicated pads. Your podiatrist might prescribe custom foot inserts (orthotic devices) that you place in your shoes. These can maintain your muscles and tendons. Ask your podiatrist if you should use splints or straps to straighten out your hammer toe. If the skin around your hammer toe becomes red or inflamed, or if it feels painful to stand on, apply an ice pack. An ice pack can numb the pain and reduce swelling. Apply the ice pack several times throughout the day or whenever you notice swelling. Never apply ice directly to your toes. This can damage the skin tissue. Instead, be sure to wrap the ice in a cloth before applying it to your toes. If you're experiencing severe inflammation and pain, you may need corticosteroid injection therapy. These injections can reduce inflammation and manage pain. Injections are often used if you have arthritis and hammer toe. If your...


Watch for symptoms of prolactinoma. Take the medication cabergoline to treat your tumor. Ask about surgery if medications are not working for you. Discuss whether radiation is necessary.

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

A prolactinoma is a type of tumor that attaches to the pituitary gland. In almost all cases, the tumor is benign, not cancerous. However, it can cause very high levels of prolactin in the body.  In women, the symptoms typically are changes in menstruation, reduced sex drive, and decreased milk production if you're breastfeeding. In men and women who don't menstruate, it's more difficult to diagnose, but you may have a low libido (due to decreased testosterone). You may also experience breast growth.  If the tumor is left unchecked, you may experience premature aging, headaches, or even vision loss. This medication is the first one that doctors will go to, as it has the fewest side effects and you only need to take it twice a week. It will most likely shrink the benign tumor and bring your prolactin levels down.  This medication can cause nausea and dizziness. The other typical medication is bromocriptine, which can also cause nausea and dizziness. With this medication, your doctor will likely have you increase your dose gradually to lessen the side effects. This medication is cheaper, but you'll need to take it 2-3 times per day.  You may need to take these medications indefinitely, though once the tumor has shrunk and your prolactin levels decrease, you may be able to come off the medication. However, you should not stop either of these medications abruptly. Follow your doctor's tapering instructions. The next treatment for this type of tumor is usually surgery. A surgeon will go in and remove the tumor so that it can't cause issues like increased prolactin levels. If you have another type of pituitary gland tumor instead of a prolactinoma, this may be your doctor's first choice of treatment. Radiation used to be a common treatment for this type of tumor, whether it’s benign or malignant. However, it's less common today, and it's typically a last resort. It can also result in the opposite problem, where your pituitary gland doesn't produce enough hormones.  However, in some cases, radiation may be the only...


Watch for symptoms of urinary tract infections in cats. Know when to take your cat to the veterinarian. Understand the tests your vet may perform. Realize your cat may need to be hospitalized.

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

Pay attention to your cat and note if you see any of the following:  Straining to urinate Yowling, or making other sounds, while urinating Urinating only small amounts of urine at a time, or none at all Frequent trips to the litter box Blood in the urine Urinating outside the litter box Changes in water consumption, often an increase Licking the genital area Take your cat to the veterinarian immediately if you see blood in your cat's urine or if the cat cannot urinate at all. Male cats are more likely to become blocked with sediment from crystals or stones in their urethras, usually caused by inflammation. This will ultimately result in a painful shut down of the kidneys and eventual death. Take your cat to the vet as soon as you notice these urine problems. When you take your cat to the veterinarian to diagnose the urinary problem, she will do tests to determine the exact problem and how to treat it. These tests may include:  a urinalysis to determine pH  concentration and the presence of bacteria or crystals a urine culture to determine if there is an infection, what kind of bacteria are present, and which antibiotics will kill those bacteria blood work to determine kidney health x-rays to look for stones in the bladder and the size and shape of the bladder and kidneys an ultrasound to look into the bladder for tumors and evaluate the bladder wall (the inside of the kidneys and the ureters) Hospitalization may ensure that your cat gets the care and treatment she needs. This might include an intravenous catheter to give the cat fluids, placing a urinary catheter in the urethra to help clear a blockage, or antibiotics to treat a urinary tract infection. Your cat will most likely need to stay in the hospital for a few days. Male cats that have experienced one episode of complete or partial urinary blockage are likely to have problems again. If this is the case, you really need to follow your veterinarian’s advice and maintain a proper diet, household regimen and regular medical care.


Watch for symptoms of worms in your chickens. Educate yourself on the different types of worms. Test chicken droppings for their worm egg count.

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

The most common symptoms of worm infestation in chickens are: abnormal, foamy looking droppings; diarrhea; pale comb/wattles; weight loss; dirty vent feathers; listlessness; gasping, head-shaking and stretching; decreased egg production; and sudden death. Keep an eye out for worms in your chickens' droppings and throat as well. You only have to worry about a handful of worm types: cecal worms, roundworms, tapeworms, capillary worms, and gapeworms. But not all of them are equally dangerous. Once you notice one (or more) types, you can treat your chicken with the appropriate medication. For example, cecal worms are common but not typically damaging to chicken health. They are visible in droppings and about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) long.  Roundworms are common and visible in droppings with heavy loads. They can be as much as 3 inches (7.6 cm) long. Tapeworms are rare and typically harmless. However, they can cause death in large infestations. They are anywhere from 0.157 inches (4.0 mm) long to up to 9.84 inches (25.0 cm) long. Capillary worms are thin and thread-like. They are not typically visible in droppings and are about 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) long. Gapeworms are not common and have a red, fork-like appearance. They are visible in droppings and cause chickens to gasp, cough, open their mouth repeatedly, and stretch their neck. Veterinarians use a worm egg count as a method of diagnosing worms. Although you can visit the veterinarian and have them determine this count, you can also purchase an egg count kit and microscope to determine it on your own. Products come with a chart that tells you if your count is light, moderate, or heavy.  Purchase worm count kits and microscopes from online suppliers. Make sure the kit contains the chemical flubendazole. If only some of your chickens appear to have worms, it is still likely that they will give the worms to the other chickens, so it is a good idea to treat the whole flock. Send the feces to a veterinarian if your chickens are losing weight or having other problems and you...


Watch for symptoms. Feed often. Prepare before breastfeeding. Breastfeed on the larger breast if it is engorged. Focus on latching. Pump only when needed. Use cold to help with the tenderness. Pick a good bra. Know when to call the doctor.

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

Your breasts will become larger after you give birth; however, sometimes you may develop engorgement, where your breasts become hard and swollen because milk is getting blocked up inside. Symptoms can include your breast being tender and warm or a throbbing sensation. You might also notice your nipple flattening out or that you are running a light fever (under 100.4°F or 38°C). If not treated, you can develop a plugged duct, which will cause your breasts to be uneven, as well as being a problem medically. One way to help treat engorgement is to feed often. That means letting your baby eat when they want and as long as they want, often eight to 12 times a day. That also means feeding at least every four hours; even if your baby is asleep, you should wake them up to feed. To make breastfeeding easier, try using a warm compress before you feed. Apply light heat for three minutes. Another option is gently massaging your breast so that it releases milk. You can also gently massage your breast while your baby is suckling. Once your breast becomes engorged, you should try to use that breast more often. When one breast is underperforming and the other one is normal, it's fine to use the smaller one more often to stimulate milk; however, when one is engorged, you need to focus more on it to help release some of the build of up milk, which is causing the problem. It's common for just one breast to become engorged, rather than both at the same time. If your baby isn't latching on well, you may need to work with a specialist (such as a lactation consultant or your doctor) to help with latching. If the baby is not latching, they may not be getting enough milk. One way to help your baby latch properly is to bring their head up underneath your breast, letting their chin be closest to your breast. Try to get them to touch your breast with their bottom lip on the far bottom side of your areola. That way, they can pull in enough of your breast, situating your nipple towards the back of their mouth. That is, if you're feeding...


Watch for the female to start laying eggs and the incubation period. Remove the nesting material after the female has started laying. Let the hatchlings be fed by their parents. Provide a complete egg protein while the birds are feeding their young. Watch for the hatchlings to be weaned. Discourage too frequent breeding.

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

A female will lay up to 7 eggs, doing 1 a day. Both the male and female will sit on the eggs during this period, incubating them. Once the eggs appear, they will hatch in about 2 weeks. If an egg hasn't opened in 3 weeks, it's not going to. Take it out of the cage. If you notice an egg, remove the extra nesting material from the bottom of the cage. If you don't, the birds may build layered nests, with a clutch of eggs on the bottom of the nest, nesting material, another clutch, and so on. These birds will keep breeding over and over, but to stay happy and healthy, they really need a break between clutches of eggs. You can also remove the other nesting boxes if you don't have other breeding pairs in the same cage. The finches will know how to feed the babies, so you do not need to do anything. The babies will have feathers in about 2 weeks and start moving out of the nest at about 18 days. After that, the parents will feed the chicks another 2-3 weeks. In fact, if you try to wean the birds early, it can cause poor health. Look for a bird food mix that has egg in it, as that is a complete protein. Feeding it to your birds while they're caring for their young will help raise healthier, stronger birds. You can also continue to feed them their regular food, too. Typically, after 4-5 weeks, the parents will start chasing off the babies to begin weaning them, particularly if they've got another clutch started. If you start seeing this behavior, move the hatchlings to a new cage so they can get some peace from their parents. If the babies are too young to be moved, you can take the new eggs away from the parents instead and dispose of them, which will get the parents to focus on the older hatchlings. These birds will continue to breed over and over if you let them, but you really shouldn't allow a single pair to breed more than 4 times a year. To discourage them, put the birds on finch seed mix and avoid feeding them greens. Also, only have nesting materials in the cage when you want the birds to breed. If you need...


Watch for the lean in. Notice the blush. Look for a head tilt. Look out for preening. Pay attention to her feet.

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

Leaning toward someone is a sign that you’re engaged and paying attention.  Particularly if the two of you are part of a larger group of people, if she leans in toward you, there’s a good chance she’s inviting further conversation with you, because she’s interested in you.  On the other hand, she could just be having a hard time hearing what you’re saying, so look for other signs of attraction too. Blushing is a sign that she’s either nervous or excited, either of which can be a good indication that she likes you.  In particular, if this girl has been your friend for a while, pay attention to whether she has recently started blushing when you talk. Head tilting indicates that a person is paying good attention to what you’re saying and that they’re engaged in thinking about your conversation.  This action, combined with other signs of attraction, can be signals that she likes you.  Of course, if you’re talking about something that aligns with her interests, it’s possible that she’s just engaged in the conversation and doesn’t actually have a crush on you.  Are there any other signs of attraction also present? Does she mess with her hair a lot? Adjust her clothing? Touch her face?  Some of this could be nervousness, which may be an indication that she likes you and is feeling shy. This could also indicate that she wants to be sure she looks okay in front of you.  Particularly look out for preening that seems out of character. If this girl rarely cares what her hair looks like (which may be common for tomboys) but is suddenly invested in smoothing out her ponytail all the time, that’s could be a clue that she wants to look nice for you. Some studies have shown that if a person points their feet in your direction while you interact, they are attracted to or at least interested in you.  If a person points their feet away from you, particularly in the direction of an escape route, it’s less likely that they’re attracted to you.  One interaction won’t necessarily give you all of the information you need here. If her...


Watch for the shrimp to turn a pink color.

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

Once the shrimp are done, they will become firmer in texture. They will also change from gray to a pink salmon color. That's when you know they are done!  The shrimp should be opaque when they're done. They start out a little translucent. Store leftover shrimp in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.


Watch for time spent in water. Determine if the reptile spends its time on land. Observe if the reptile inhabits marshy regions. Pay attention to where and how the reptile basks.

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

Turtles spend most of their lives in water. Depending on its species, a turtle may inhabit fresh water (ponds and lakes) or the sea. Tortoises are land dwellers. Some tortoises live far from major sources of water, such as in deserts. Terrapins spend time both on land and in water. However, they inhabit brackish waters such as marshes. Often the term “terrapin” is only used to refer to certain species living in marshes of the Eastern and Southern United States, such as the Diamondback Terrapin, or the Red-eared Terrapin (also called the Red-eared slider; this is a common pond and pet turtle). Turtles and terrapins will leave the water to bask in the sun on logs, sand, rocks, and other surfaces. Sea turtles typically spend more time in water, but will leave to bask in the sun on beaches, reefs, and similar areas.


Watch for unexplained bills, receipts for meals, etc. Find out whether your boyfriend or girlfriend has additional email accounts, or other online accounts. Notice whether his or her friends are acting differently towards you. Notice whether he begins to buy you gifts out of nowhere, or she starts casually mentioning an end to your relationship.

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

bought for two people. If you keep finding receipts from McDonalds with two different meals on it, or two sodas in the cup holders, or a bill for a bracelet you did not get, then watch out. Or begin to, out of nowhere, change their passwords to keep you out of their accounts. Normally, if they didn't give you their password to start with, this is no problem. But if they've suddenly changed it to protect messages they've written, or chats they've had, you should be alert to this possible red flag. Have his or her friends begun to act oddly around you? When you casually talk to his friends, do they seem anxious, nervous, or eager to leave? They probably know something you don't know. Questions such as "What would you do if we broke up?" are key hints. Men and women, both, become guilty. This guilt can easily be forgotten with an action or item for the other person that makes the cheater seem selfless.


Watch for vomiting. Check the incision site each morning and night. Check your cat’s gums. Look for signs of pain. Watch for other warning signs. Contact an emergency vet. Keep any follow-up appointments.

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

If your cat vomits after eating the night you bring it home from surgery, remove the food. Try feeding a small amount of food again the next morning. If your cat vomits again, or if it has diarrhea, call your vet. For 7-10 days after surgery, check your cat’s incision site every morning and night. Compare its appearance to the incision site on the first day after surgery to judge how your cat is healing. Call your veterinarian if you observe any of the following:   Redness. The incision may initially be pink or light red around the edges. This redness should fade with time. If it intensifies or the incision appears dark red at any time, this could be a sign of a developing infection.  Bruising. Some slight bruising that goes from red to purple as it heals is normal. If the bruising spreads, gets, worse or is severe, or if new bruising occurs, however, you should seek follow-up care right away.  Swelling. Some swelling around the incision site is a normal part of healing, but if the swelling persists or worsens, you should call your veterinarian.  Discharge. You may see a very small amount of light red discharge around the incision when you bring your cat home. This can be normal, but if the discharge persists for more than a day, the amount of discharge increases, the discharge is bloody or the discharge is green, yellow, white or foul smelling, your cat needs veterinary attention.  Separation of the wound edges. In a male cat, the scrotal incisions will be open, but they should be small, and they should close rapidly. A female cat or a male that had abdominal surgery may or may not have visible stitches. If the cat has visible stitches, these should remain intact. If the cat does not have visible stitches, the wound edges should remain closed. If they start to separate or you notice anything, including suture material, protruding from the wound, take the cat to your veterinarian right away. Your cat’s gums should be pale pink to red in color. When you press lightly on the gum and then let go, the color...


Watch for vomiting. Look for diarrhea. Pay attention to the cat's activity level. Listen for respiratory problems. Pay attention to head tilting, dizziness, or disorientation. Groom your cat often to check for new lumps or growths. Pay attention to your cat's eyes. Look in your cat's mouth.

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

If your cat vomits, especially several times a day, and seems under the weather, then this is significant. If the cat either refuses water or vomits after drinking water, then he/she should be seen by a vet. Many cats are happy vomiters, meaning they throw up from time to time (once or twice a week) as a means of cleansing their system. This is nothing to worry about in a cat that's active, responsive, behaving normally and eating well. A cat should produce formed, sausage-like feces. Diarrhea is liquid feces that have no shape, and is definitely abnormal. If the cat is otherwise well, it is acceptable to wait 24 hours to see if the cat has merely eaten something that has upset his/her tummy. However, if he/she is vomiting, off his/her food, listless, or lethargic, or has blood or mucus (a jelly like substance) in her stools, then she should be seen by a vet. Lethargy, or lack of energy, can indicate fever, breathing difficulties, or the cat being in pain. This is subtly different from the cat sleeping more, because the cat is awake, but doesn't have the energy to interact or participate in daily activities. If the cat is lethargic and breathing quicker, he/she should see a vet. Take note of your cat’s personality. If your cat is unusually tired and loses interest in exercise and regular daily activities, this could be a sign that your pet is undernourished or ill. If your cat is breathing very quickly and shallowly or with his/her mouth open, and has not been exerting him/herself, you should take your cat to the vet. You should also try to gauge how labored the cat's breathing appears. If you notice his/her stomach muscles heaving, in order to breathe, see the vet. Sometimes purring can confuse the respiratory rate (it makes the rate appear faster), so try to count her breaths when he/she is not purring or asleep. The normal respiratory rate in the cat is about 20 - 30 breaths a minute, and should be at the lower end when relaxed. All of these may be symptoms of a neurological disorder or ear infection.

Watch free online tutorials to learn techniques like blending or shading. Take private lessons or join an art class focused on particular skills. Use instruction books if you’re a beginner or learning a specific skill. Connect with other artists online for tips about styles and materials. Assess your weaknesses and work on them.

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

If you want to learn how to make particular colors or create realistic-looking shading and shadows, consider watching some free online tutorials. Have your sketchpad and supplies handy so you can pause the video and practice as the instructor breaks it down.  Peruse the comment section on videos because it’s likely that other artists have left some tips and suggestions. Search for tutorials in any particular technique you want to learn. For instance, you might find some good lessons on composition, working with light, cubism, surrealism, or even creating 3-D effects. If you can think of it, the internet probably has it! If you’re a beginner, look to local community centers and libraries for beginning art courses. If you already have some intermediate or advanced skills, you might consider enrolling in a class offered at a local college or art institute.  Taking classes is a great way to meet other artists and get some constructive criticism. To find local instructors, classes, and workshops near you, go to https://artcantina.com/. Workbooks are a great way to start if you’re a beginner or looking to pick up a very specific skill like figure drawing or cartooning. This is a great option if you have a busy schedule because you can tackle each lesson at your own pace.  You can buy instruction books online or at most large bookstores. If you rent an instruction book from your local library, don’t draw in the book! Photocopy the practice pages so you can draw on those instead. If you’re a beginner, look for instruction books that have traceable practice sheets so you can get a feel for it before practicing on a canvas or sketchpad. Beware of the "paint or draw by number" format—it can help if you’re an absolute beginner, but it may also hinder your individual style. Great artists are unique! If you want to learn to draw or paint particular things (like people, animals, and landscapes) or work with certain materials (like oil paints, watercolor, and charcoal) join an online artist community.

Watch her web series. Use brightly colored eyeliner. Wear orange or red lipstick.

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

Hayley actually created a makeup web series called “Kiss Off.” In the debut video, she joins with her hair and makeup stylist to show fans how to get one of her most dramatic looks.  In the first episode, they explain how to create her flame cat-eye makeup. She said she considers the look to be inspirational. Flames drawn with makeup come out of her eyes. To get this look, first, her makeup artist applies foundation. Then, he uses a red lip pencil to draw the flame on each eye, with the first point of the flame at the end of the brow and the other point in the middle of her eyebrow. Then, it's filled in to create the bright red flames.  Then, he uses black eyeliner to create a triangle on the corner of the eye and to line the bottom lash line with a black pencil as well as the top of the eye. Then, he applies mascara, and brushes peachy pink blusher on the apples of Hayley's cheeks. Hayley is not a fan of the typical smoky eye with black eyeliner look. That's too predictable for her.  Instead, she is often seen wearing pastel green or blue eye liner that she uses in the waterline of her eyes as well as on the lower and upper lash lines. Hayley often tops the look off by applying pastel eyeshadow in frosted white and blue-green colors. She sweeps the white eyeshadow up to the eyebrow and applies the darker shades of blue-green on the lid, extending to the corner of the eye.  When she does wear black eyeliner, it's usually dramatically applied liquid liner that she puts only on her upper lash line extending out from the corner of the eye to form a cat eye look. Hayley usually has color on her lips, and she often goes with bold colors to match her hair.  One of her favorite lipstick colors is an orange-red color that you will see her wear when her hair is tinted more orange in color. She has also been seen wearing dark, deep red lipstick. Occasionally she tints her lips with just a little peach or orange color, but Hayley is not a fan of subtle colors.


Watch his eyes. Note how he communicates. Look for sweet talk. Note his responses to questions. Get to know his “friends”. Monitor your shared activities. Watch online communication.

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

A player’s eyes are constantly on the move. Almost everyone admires and appreciates beautiful people from time to time. However, a player’s eyes will move from one woman to the next. Essentially, he is rating, ranking, and judging how he could play each and every woman he looks at. Does he frequently not respond to your texts or calls for big gaps of time, only to respond much later? Does his phone go off consistently, but he never answers it when he’s with you? Chances are you are dealing with a player. If you know he works all day during the week, but has nights and weekends off, then he shouldn’t be hard to get in touch with at these times. If he is, he is probably with another woman. There is nothing wrong with a man treating you well and being romantic with you. However, if from the very outset of your relationship, the guy is constantly calling you baby and talking sweet to you, he is probably trying to get your guard down because he sees you as yet another conquest. If the answer to every question you ask is “maybe” instead of a solid “yes” or “no” response, you’re probably getting played. Men who don’t want to commit to anything are probably doing so because they are waiting to come up with a plan to juggle you with their other women. Is the guy you’re dating constantly talking about his pals, friends, or his boys, but you’ve never met any of them? That is a good sign you are being played. You want to meet his so-called friends and get to know them. If you can’t, all that time he claims to be spending with his friends is probably spent with other women. If you spend all your time together in private and never go out as a couple, that is a bad sign. A man who actively seeks to stay in with a woman is often doing so to avoid running into another woman he is supposed to be committed to. If you spend most or all of your time together at home and rarely go out, this could be the reason why. Is your guy on Facebook, twitter, or other social media platforms, but has not yet friended you or connected with you...


Watch horror movies for inspiration. Choose your timing and audience carefully. Choose your chair wisely. Prepare yourself. Decide how you will act that night. Start the prank. Sit in the chair. Stare at a point on the ceiling. Begin making sounds. Know how you’ll react to your friends. Come clean.

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

It’s a common scene in horror movies to have someone sitting facing the wall, responding to some unknown entity. Most often they have their back to the audience, and are gently rocking back and forth in a rocking chair. This is not something you want to do in broad daylight around a large group of people. It’s a great prank for a sleepover if you have up to 3 other people over. If you’re doing this at a home where there will be parents present, make sure the parents know about the prank, otherwise they might wonder what's going on when they hear someone laughing maniacally in the middle of the night. Sitting in a big cushy armchair facing the wall won't have the same effect as sitting in a wooden chair or rocking chair. You want to be easily seen, and you want your body language to be as clear as possible. Practice what you’re going to do before you do it. Make sure no one hears or sees you doing this unless you want them in on the prank. You may want to act completely normal all the way up to the point that your friends find you sitting in the chair, or, you might want to give little hints that something isn’t right with you throughout the night.  You could eat and then say you’re not feeling well, and say that you haven’t been feeling well a lot lately — something up with your stomach. You could mention that you’ve been having bad dreams, and then describe dreams in which a weird face appears in the darkness above you, or in which shadow people hover over you in your sleep. Once everyone is in the bedroom and lying down/ready to go to sleep, lie down and then within seconds toss and turn, and then stand up and walk towards the door.  If no one says anything as you leave, say “Ugh I have to pee again already” as you walk out, just to make sure they notice you’re gone. If you’re worried no one will notice you, or that you might wake up other people in the house, you can even do the prank in the bedroom — in this case, you’ll want to be the first one in the bedroom so that when everyone comes in, you’re...

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

Does your enemy get along well with other coworkers? Watch to see how they interact. Then try to adapt your own interactions so that you can work better together.  You might discover that a colleague's bluntness is actually a dry sense of humor which other people find funny. Although you might not find them funny, you can at least recognize that they aren't being mean. Mimic how other people interact with your difficult colleague. If they ask about the colleagues' children, show your interest by also asking about them. Another way to build a relationship is to stop avoiding the person. Jump on a project they are currently heading, or volunteer to sit on a committee that they are a part of. The only way to build bridges is to actually see and speak to each other.  Put forth your best effort on the project. You want to build trust with your coworker. You should be a reliable team player. When you finish a task, ask what else you can do to help. Be available whenever the person calls or stops by your office. Put aside whatever you're working on and focus on them. They will appreciate your attentions. Remember to tell you coworker that you trust their judgment. No matter how busy you are, there should be opportunities to get to know people at work. Look for chances to interact with your difficult coworker. Consider the following opportunities:  Ride the same train or bus to and from work. You can talk casually on the ride. Take a walk together during your break. Eat lunch together. You might want to have lunch in a group at first, which can make you both feel more comfortable. . When you see an opening to talk with your enemy, say “hello” in the friendliest manner possible. Then move onto some small talk, which is polite conversation on non-controversial subjects—the weather, what people have been doing, etc. Small talk is a good way to fill silence and forge a tentative connection.  A good strategy is to ask open-ended questions. If you feel nervous or don't know what to say, ask your difficult coworker what...


Watch how she behaves. Monitor her eating and drinking. Keep a journal of symptoms. Notice how the symptoms develop.

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

There are certain symptoms that Addison's Disease causes. These can manifest in physical ways, which will change her behavior. Look for muscle weakness, which may show up as shaking or trembling. She may also stop being able to jump or play.  She may also have a decreased energy level, depression, and overall lethargy. This will cause her to sit or lay around without moving much or playing. She may also be less interested in you, in your family, in playing, or other activities she used to love. She may also seem restless and won't settle down, which is likely due to a stomach issue. It is also possible that she may lose her fur. In some cases, Addison's Disease may cause your Poodle to collapse. Addison's Disease can also manifest through her eating and drinking habits. Your dog may start vomiting or have diarrhea, which are some of the most common and frequent symptoms of this condition. She may loose her appetite but have an increase in her thirst. This will likely cause increased urination.  She may lose weight because of her decrease in appetite. She may also have blood in her stool. If you notice more than one of these symptoms in your dog, you should keep track of them. Your vet will want to know what your Poodle's symptom history is and how often they have occurred. It is important to note how long the symptoms last and if the time between them and length of their occurrence change over time. This will help paint a full picture of your Poodle's disease as help your vet treat her. The symptoms associated with Addison's Disease are mild in the early stages of the disease. They also tend to come and go, which can make it hard to diagnose in this stage. This means that your dog may have episodes where the symptoms occur and then they will clear up after a day or two. The symptoms may also come in waves, where she will have one symptom for a few days, then that one will clear up as another develops.  This is most common with the gastric symptoms, such as vomiting and diarrhea. These symptoms will clear up,...


Watch how they carry their board. Study what they do at the skate park. Ask to see them land some tricks.

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

Look for the "mall grab,” which is carrying the board by the trucks. The mall grab is generally considered to be a poser red flag. If they hold their board at their side with the grip tape facing their body, they are probably a poser (or possibly a newbie). The correct way to hold a board is under your arm at the middle of the board, with the trucks facing out.  There is a lot of controversy about whether or not the "mall grab" truly indicates you're a poser, since a lot of skaters these days hold their boards like that. The mall grab only indicates you're a poser when combined with a lot of the other red flags mentioned here. Definitely inspect how they hold their board, but you also should see if they ever actually ride the board that they carry around with them. Some posers will actually buy and carry a board around with them just to look cool, like a fashion accessory. That’s bad enough, but then they won’t even carry it correctly! Do they spend time actually riding their board at the skate park? Or do they show up, ride around once, then spend the rest of the time standing around, chatting, smoking cigarettes, texting and getting in the way of actual skaters? Classic poser moves.  Real skaters will spend most of their time skating and practicing tricks when they’re at the skate park. Real skaters pay little to no attention to the social gathering going on around them at the skate park. If you have the opportunity, ask them flat out to show you some tricks. A real skater won’t hesitate to show you their moves, even if they’re newbies. Newbies aren’t posers – everyone has to start somewhere and at least they’re out there skating.  You could say, "Hey Paul, show me your ollie!" or ask, "Can you show me your frontside and backside moves? I've been working on my frontside and wouldn't mind seeing how you do it." Posers will use do everything they can to worm their way out of actually skating, since they don’t know how. If they don't have a board on them when you ask, invite them to come skate with you at the...


Watch how your cocker spaniel behaves. Smell your cocker spaniel's ears. Look inside your cocker spaniel's ears. Examine the discharge coming from your cocker spaniel's ears.

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

Your cocker spaniel's discomfort with his ears will be obvious. For example, he will shake his head, scratch his ears, and be sensitive to touch on his head or around his ears. In addition, he may rub his ear against a piece of furniture. If his discomfort his severe, you may hear him cry out when he scratches his ears. Excessive head shaking can create a large blood clot in the ear, called an aural hematoma. Ear infections typically produce a strong, foul odor. If your cocker spaniel will let you touch his ears, lift the flap of one ear and sniff inside the ear. It won't take long for an unpleasant smell to reach your nose. An ear infected with the bacteria Pseudomonas will have a swamp/pond water smell. If your cocker spaniel will let you, look inside his ears. The ears will look red and inflamed. You may also see scaly skin. If your cocker spaniel's ears contain mites, you wouldn't be able to see them because they are so small. However, you would be able to see evidence of their irritation: dark, coffee ground-like bumps. Depending on the ear infection's cause (bacteria, yeast, ear mites), you may see discharge exiting the ears. The discharge will be one of a few colors, such as yellow or brown, and have a certain consistency. For example, discharge will be brown and crumbly with ear mites; Pseudomonas will produce a yellow/green pus. The discharge may also be waxy or contain blood.


Watch how your partner treats friends and family. Watch your partner's interactions with strangers. Consider what your partner thinks about your gender.

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

If your partner is rude or dismissive to his own parents or friends, how do you think you'll be treated? Remember that, right now, while your relationship is relatively young, your partner is on good behavior.  How will things be when there is no longer any need to impress you? Notice if your partner treats waiters or waitresses, taxi drivers, concierges or anyone else in the service industry disrespectfully. This is a sign that someone has a mean superiority complex. He divides the world into worthiness and unworthiness and this sense of unworthiness will soon be inflicted on you. Abusers often stereotype gender. Male abusers, for example, often use male privilege to dominate women. They can have negative attitudes about women and women's roles, thinking that women should be kept in the home and kept submissive. For relationships in which a woman is the abuser, there may be contempt for men that influences how she treats her partner.


Watch if your cockatiel bobs his tail. Look for sitting. Notice other signs of sickness.

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

Sometimes, when a cockatiel is sick, he will bob his tail. If you notice this sign, it may be time to take him to the vet. Another indicator your bird could be sick is that he sits. He'll either hunch down on the perch or sit on the bottom of the cage. While these signs aren't necessarily "gestures," they can also indicate sickness. For instance, your bird may sneeze, get extra sleepy, or lose his voice. He may also may eat more or less, or he may suddenly drink more water. Finally, his droppings may change in appearance (color) or number.


Watch interviews from past pageants. Talk to former contestants. Find out the interview procedure for your pageant. Review your paperwork. Get up to speed on current events. Know your brand. Hire a coach. Practice.

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

It’s hard to be confident when you don’t know what to expect from the interviewing process. One of the best ways to prepare yourself is to watch the pageant interview section from past years. There are many recordings of major beauty pageants on online sites like Youtube or pageant websites.  You can also try to get in touch with the organizers of the pageant if you are competing in a small or local pageant and see if they can connect with recordings. If you can’t find footage from your particular pageant, watch interviews from similar pageants to see the kinds of questions that are posed to the contestants. No one knows what the interview process is like better than people who have already been through it. Get in touch with former contestants either through contacts you may have or by connecting through email or social media. Ask them what interviewing was like for them and request advice.  Ask the former contestant if there was anything about the interview that they didn’t expect, and ask them what goes on behind the scenes. Ask the contestant if they were asked any challenging questions, and what advice they would give you for answering more difficult questions. Every pageant does the interviewing process slightly differently. Make sure that you understand exactly how the pageant you are competing in does the interview.  Make sure you know the length of the interview, as well as the number of questions usually asked. Also know what time the interview is and how the interviewing process fits in with the rest of the day. Finally, make sure you understand the judging system of the interview. Many beauty pageants have a panel of judges that assess your answers based on multiple criteria. See if there is a copy of a rubric or scorecard that judges will use that you can view to prepare for the interview. Many pageants require their contestants to submit paperwork to compete in the pageant. The paperwork is often the first resource that judges turn to when formulating questions for individual contestants. The...


Watch live music. Attend a book reading. People watch. Talk to a stranger. Watch a movie. Enjoy an arcade.

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

Many malls have areas with sound equipment and a stage set up for musicians to play live shows. Some malls have large, dedicated spaces where actual concerts are staged, while others have small stages open to amateur musicians or musicians playing background music.  If you play music yourself, watching amateurs perform can help you cultivate your stage presence. If possible, bring a few dollars along to tip the musician, if you like what you hear. Most malls contain at least one bookstore, so see if you can find a book or poetry reading. The authors of books complete some readings themselves, but many bookstores also host readings from and for the public. These can include readings of other artists’ work, or can be readings from amateur writers of their own work.  Book and poetry readings can expose you to authors you’d not heard of previously, or can inspire you to create your own work. Make sure you are kind and respectful of others at a book reading. Be quiet, and try to stay seated until the reading has finished. People watching is a simple, enjoyable activity, and a mall is a great place to do it. Because most malls are high-traffic areas, you can see a wide variety of lifestyles, clothing choices, behaviors, and habits, not to mention interesting accents and conversations. Take a few minutes to people watch the next time you are at the mall on your own.  People watching is great for people who like to draw or write, as you can glean ideas for personalities, characters, and faces to recreate. Even if you are not artistically inclined, people watching can be entertaining and provide insight into how people work. Strike up a conversation with a stranger over a shared interest in books, a common interest in a certain clothing store, or even about the hassle of long lines in the bathroom. You do not have to become instant friends or carry on a memorable conversation. The goal is to step out of your comfort zone and enjoy an interaction with a stranger. Many malls are equipped with movie theatres, so take...

Watch out for a major water bill spike. Check for leaky appliances. Look for pools of water, damp carpet, or warped wood floors. Sniff out mold or mildew patches. Take note if your water fixtures become less powerful. Check if your hot water heater is always on. Feel your floor for warm spots. Watch out for foundation cracks indicating a sewer leak.

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

In most cases, the first indication that your underground pipes are leaking will come from your water or sewer bill. If you see a massive price spike from one month to the next, or if your bill increases each month despite your water usage staying the same, you may be dealing with a leaky pipe. Some water bill spikes are caused by leaky appliances, especially toilets, so check them first. To check for a toilet leak, add some food coloring to the tank and let it sit for 10 minutes. If the coloring moved to the bowl, you have a toilet leak. For a faucet or water-based appliance, look for pooling or dripping water around the appliance itself or the connected pipes. Slab leaks create water build-ups underneath your concrete foundation. To escape, this water may pool on top of your floors, yard, or the concrete itself. If you have carpeted floors, search for areas that look darker or are unexpectedly damp. If you have wood panel floors, watch out for spots where the wood starts to warp. When water sits for a long time, it creates a perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow. Though you most likely won’t be able to see it, be aware of areas in your house that smell musty of funky for a long period of time. Mold and mildew are most likely to grow under carpet or, if the water leak spreads, behind drywall. High water pressure is what lets sinks, bathtubs, and showers provide you with plenty of water for your everyday needs. If they suddenly become less powerful, providing smaller or weaker streams, a leaky pipe may be to blame. To check if your fixtures are less powerful, turn off every water-based appliance in the house and test the stream from a single faucet. If your hot water heater is running most, if not all, of the time, it may indicate that you have a hot water leak under your concrete. Because hot water is constantly escaping, your heater is working overtime to warm up the new water. If there are no other signs of a slab leak, look for indications that the water heater itself is broken, such as muddy...


Watch out for big portions. Plan ahead. Eat a good breakfast or lunch before your Italian meal. Schedule an extra workout. Invite a friend or family member.

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

Whether you are eating in a restaurant or eating at home, it is important to pay attention to how much food you put on your plate. This is the best way to eat healthy while eating Italian food. Even if you select a lower fat option, eating a large portion will still add excess calories.  If you are eating at home, then you can use a measuring cup to ensure that you only consume one serving. Check the pasta package and any sauce you are using to find out what the recommended serving sizes are, and then measure out that amount. For example, if the recommended serving is one cup of pasta and 1/4 cup of sauce, then measure out these amounts. If you are eating in a restaurant, then you might ask the server how much pasta and sauce comes with an entrée to get an idea of how many servings will be on your plate. Then, you can request a to-go container right when your meal arrives and box up half of the portion before you begin eating. This will help to prevent you from consuming an overly large portion. Take advantage of knowing what dishes will complement your chosen, healthy diet. Doing so can help you avoid making poor health decisions.  Go online, call, or stop in to check out their menu. Call ahead to find out their daily specials. Daily specials can contain health-conscious proteins, such as seafood prepared with olive oil and vegetables. Showing up ravenous to eat can result in making poor choices. Be pleasantly hungry, but don’t starve yourself before you show up to the restaurant. Even if it’s just an extra walk to counterbalance your meal, it will help you feel good about going out. Healthy eating, in part, means balancing out the energy you take in with the energy you put out. Research suggests that eating with others promotes healthier eating habits. Family and friends can help to support your healthy lifestyle. You might even consider splitting an entrée with a friend or family member to cut back on the calories. For example, if the entrée has 800 calories, then splitting it with someone would cut the...


Watch out for common health problems. Keep your dog entertained. Be careful with other pets. Avoid getting a Jack Russell if you have young children. Make sure any fences are secure.

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

Jack Russell terriers are generally a healthy breed that live a long time. However your dog may be prone to hip problems, deafness, and dislocation of the knee caps. If your dog appears to be sick or in pain, bring it into a vet right away. If you went through a good breeder, your dog is less likely to have these kinds of problems. You need to play with your Jack Russell terrier regularly. Make sure it has a lot of toys to entertain itself. Jack Russell terriers need a lot of mental stimulation to be happy. If they're not entertained, they'll act out by getting into things around the house.  Make sure your dog has toys it likes. If your Jack Russell seems uninterested in its current toys, make a trip to a local pet shop to get it something different. It's not uncommon for Jack Russell terriers to get destructive around the house if not entertained. Not all Jack Russell terriers take well to other animals. They tend to be territorial, and can even kill smaller animals like cats. Introduce a Jack Russell terrier to new pets slowly. Do not bring a Jack Russell terrier to a place like a dog park if you don't know how it takes to other pets.  Jack Russell terriers may be particularly aggressive to dogs of the same sex. Some Jack Russell terriers do best as only pets. A lot of them are simply aggressive to other pets. Jack Russell terriers may snap or bite if handled improperly. Very young children should be supervised closely around a Jack Russell terrier. Make sure you teach your children how to interact safely with a Jack Russell terrier. Teach them not to approach the dog when it's eating or sleeping. Jack Russell terriers are escape artists by nature. If you let your dog have access to a fenced in yard, check your fence carefully. Make sure there are no gaps in the fence, and that it's high enough that your dog cannot jump over it. Electronic fences are not recommended for Jack Russell terriers. It's easy for a Jack Russell terrier to find its way around an electronic barrier.


Watch out for controlling behavior. Notice if the relationship demands too much of your time. Check in when you visit. Take your bad feelings seriously.

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

If your partner doesn't take you at your word, that's a bad sign. If they frequently get mad at you for not answering your phone or texting them back quickly enough, they may be trying to control you. Watch out for phrases like "I'm checking in on you" or "I don't want you hanging out with someone I don't trust." Similarly, if you are feeling distrustful or controlling, you may want to back off. In an unhealthy relationship, one partner often tries to control the other by insisting on a greater time-commitment than is actually enjoyable or practical.  Ask yourself: Does your partner insist on more of your time than you want? Do you feel like you "have to" visit every weekend? Does talking and texting with your partner interfere with your social life? If you try to negotiate this, what happens? If you mention to your partner that you are feeling pressured to always be on call, your partner should respond by asking you what schedule you would prefer. If your partner responds by getting angry or cold, you should take that as a sign that your relationship is not working out. Does it feel wonderful to see them? It may be awkward at first, but after a day or so, do you settle in? Can you still talk about all the things you talk about when you're at a distance?  Meet their friends and family. Your partner should want to introduce you to some of their friends. Make sure that their friends know who you are and are friendly towards you. If anyone acts nervous around you, or if nobody seems to have heard of you, something might be going on. When your partner visits, are you proud of them? Do you want to introduce them to the people in your life? You should be pleased to bring your sweetheart into your community—if you aren't, that might mean you aren't that into them. Do you feel trapped, or stuck? Do you feel guilty for not thinking about your partner all the time? This may mean your relationship is not working.  If you're not sure whether or not your relationship is healthy, talk about it with a psychologist, or try...


Watch out for infections and diseases. Be aware that certain sexual practices cause vaginal odor. Check for foreign objects. Be careful to practice proper hygiene. Avoid hot baths and hot tubs.

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

These are the major causes of serious vaginal odor. Examples of such infections and diseases include yeast and bacterial infections (the most common causes), STIs, STDs, or viruses like herpes. Even much more serious problems like some kinds of cancer or internal ruptures can cause vaginal odor. You will need to monitor your body for other signs of illness and if you really feel that your vaginal odor is unnatural, see your doctor. One thing to look out for are unusual discharges from your vagina. Brown, green, or chunky white discharges are signs of infection and you should go see your doctor as soon as possible. Just remember that some discharge is normal and healthy but it should not smell. Any introduction of foreign bacteria can upset the delicate balance in your vagina and so sexual practices can have an effect. Certain practices in particular can set off a reaction, namely anal sex before vaginal sex, oral sex, and the use of objects or food as penetrative methods. If you wish to engage in these practices, use protection (like a condom) and change it in between activities. Foreign objects lodged in the vagina will cause your body's immune response to react and try to attack the object. This can cause bad odor as well. Tampons that have been forgotten or left in for too long, pieces of a broken condom, or objects used in sexual play are examples of such causes for odor. Improper hygiene can lead to a buildup of bacteria around your vagina and vulva. This will cause odor, though it may not necessarily cause an infection. If you want to reduce odor, keep yourself and your clothing clean. Loose clothing can prevent smell too. Surrounding your vagina with hot water will kill much of your body’s natural bacteria which preserves the delicate balance of your vagina.


Watch out for mealybugs and scale insects. Rid your plant of mealybugs and scale insects. Keep a lookout for aphids.

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

Hoyas are occasionally bothered by mealybugs and scale insects. They are small, flat, oval, immobile insects and are commonly white, tan or brown. If they do attack, rub them off with your thumbnail or dip a cotton ball in Isopropyl rubbing alcohol and wipe them off the plant with that. Check beneath the leaves and along the stems. Aphids may also try to make a meal out of a Hoya. They are small, oval, soft-bodied insects that are most often green or red, although they can be nearly any color. If they attack, set the Hoya in the sink or tub and wash the aphids off with a strong spray of water.


Watch out for sharp shooting pain. Be concerned if you have diabetes. Look for signs of infection. Be aware of rapid swelling and discoloration. Take note of reduced range of motion and grinding sounds.

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

Sharp shooting pain often doesn't represent a problem in your leg, but rather an issue in your low back or hip. Twinges of pain that shoot down the back of your leg is called sciatica and usually caused by a bulging or herniated disc between your spinal bones.  See your doctor or chiropractor for a physical exam and spinal x-rays to rule out a back problem. Shooting leg pain can also be caused by arthritic and/or slightly malpositioned hip or spinal joints. Sharp, shooting or "electric" pain represents nerve irritation, whereas achy pain and soreness usually indicates muscle pain. Foot and leg issues are common with diabetics because the high levels of sugar (glucose) in the blood is toxic and irritation to small blood vessels and nerve endings. If your lower leg or foot is painful and numb (reduced sensations), then you may not be controlling your blood sugar as well as you should.  See your doctor and get your blood glucose levels measured by a simple blood test. Leg pain is often an early sign to people who are undiagnosed with diabetes. Being overweight and a heavy drinker of alcohol are two major risk factors for diabetes. People with diabetes usually develop symptoms and pain in both legs and the condition gets worse slowly with time depending on how well the condition is managed. Infections in the leg from puncture wounds or cuts / abrasions are not uncommon and often start with minor pain before escalating and getting worse. Other signs to look out for include swelling and redness, black and blue streaks, mild-to-moderate fever, nausea, rapidly increasing pain and great difficulty walking.  See your doctor immediately if you notice any of these symptoms. If your doctor is booked up or unavailable, go to a walk-in clinic or hospital emergency department for treatment. Stepping on sharp objects, sports injuries, foot trauma, cuts from a pedicure and severe blisters from ill-fitting shoes can all develop into bacterial infections that quickly involve most of the leg. Insect, spider and snake bites can...


Watch out for warning signs. Make your home safe. Share your thoughts with people you trust. Find other people's stories. Make a safety plan to pull out when the thoughts come.

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

In an intense emotional state, you may underestimate your own ability to take your life. Regardless of how you feel, seek help if you experience any of these warning signs, using the resources described in the crisis section:  Social isolation, withdrawal from friends and family, thoughts of not belonging or being a burden Extreme self-hatred, feelings of hopelessness Sudden mood changes (including for the better), rage outbursts, low tolerance for frustration, agitation or anxiety Increase in alcohol or drug use Insomnia or severely disrupted sleep Talking about suicide, planning it, or acquiring tools for suicide While self-harm is not the same as suicide attempts, the two are strongly linked. Seek immediate attention if you inflict serious or frequent self-harm, including punching walls, pulling out hair, or scratching your skin. Having easy access to dangerous items increases the chance of suicide. Don't make it easy to change your mind. Lock away anything you could use to harm yourself, like pills, razors, knives, or guns. Give them to someone else for safekeeping, throw them away, or put them in a place that's not within easy reach.   Minimize alcohol and drug use. Despite the temporary good feelings, they can make depression worse or harder to deal with. If you don't feel as though you'll be safe in your own home, go somewhere where you do feel safe. Stay with a friend, or go to a community center or another public place where you can hang out. Your support system is very important when you're dealing with suicidal thoughts. You need people you can trust to hear you out without judging you for feeling despair or trying to give advice that hurts more than it helps. Even well-meaning people can sometimes make you feel guilty or ashamed for feeling suicidal. Try to spend time with people who will listen and care for you without judgement instead. If you aren't comfortable sharing with anyone in your life, read about the award-winning, global Buddy project on their twitter page, and sign up for a buddy...


Watch professional and national games. Use the width of the field on offense. Tighten up to defend as a unit. Apply your team strategy consistently. Study the strengths and weaknesses of opponents. Communicate with your teammates.

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

Study the moves of elite players closely, and dissect how they maintain possession of the ball and put players in position to score. Think about opportunities when you can use similar strategies in your own play.  Watch teams with a wide variety of playing styles – don't just focus on one or two teams that you like personally. It can also be good to make a study of a single team playing a lot of different teams. Figure out how they adapt their strategy to capitalize on the weaknesses of the other team. Games where an underdog team defeated a top-ranked team can be good games to watch for strategy. When your team has possession, spread out and use the size of the field to help break up the other team's defense and create opportunities to score. Use short and long passes and runs to keep the ball moving.  If you keep the ball moving, the defense won't have an opportunity to close in on you and make it difficult for you to pass the ball. Pass the ball to players on the outside to stretch the defense thin and open up holes to get a teammate in an advantageous position. When the other team has the ball, your general strategy is the opposite of what it was when you had possession. Move more towards the middle of the field and move together as an impenetrable mass. The opposing team will try to stretch you out, but maintain position – especially when they pass the ball to a player on the outside. If the ball is played to the right winger, for example, your whole team should move as a unit to the right. Your coach will communicate the overall team strategy to you and your teammates. When in doubt, fall back to this strategy as a default, regardless of the relative skills of your opponent.  Your team strategy should be one that maximizes your team's strengths and minimizes weaknesses. If you see ways in which your team strategy could be improved, talk them over with your coach and your teammates. Work with your coach to understand your role in the overall team strategy, particularly if you switch to a different...


Watch professional planche videos. Push yourself up with a tucked planche. Attempt planche pushups.

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

Carefully observing how professional gymnasts planche should give you inspiration and guidance on how to execute one. Keep an eye out for the particular motion and stance in which the professionals execute their planche. Having a firm visual reference will help you figure out the specifics yourself. It may look very easy when professionals planche, but it is, in fact, an extremely difficult process. Even professional gymnasts may take years to properly figure it out. Using gymnastics bars planted on the ground, push yourself up. However, unlike a regular planche where your legs would be extended, keep your legs tucked in under your body. This will reduce the amount of strength and balance required to hold the planche.  When you're comfortable with a tucked planche, an advanced tucked planche will push your limits. An advanced tucked planche differs from a regular tucked planche  because your legs are extended in an L-shape at the knee. This should increase the difficulty, both in terms of strength and balance. Tucked planches are easier because the weight is more situated towards the area you're lifting from. When you've mastered this elite exercise, kick it up a notch by doing pushups. In the planche position, bend your arms at the elbows to lower your body to the ground, then straighten your arms to come back up. Keep your torso, legs and toes in a straight line parallel to the ground the whole time.

Soccer is on year-round, as there are so many different leagues, tournaments, and teams across the world that you can almost always be sure of finding a game. While the availability of certain games depends on where you live and your TV provider, following your favorite teams is getting easier and easier in the online era. Moreover, the widespread nature of soccer means that almost every country and area will have a team to watch.  If you want to watch a game, but can't find it on TV, search for the game and date, plus the word "streaming" in your internet browser. Many soccer blogs will post all of the different ways to see the game. Check out your local teams, including semi-pro teams. Much like baseball, soccer players and teams can move up and down in the rankings from season to season and even become national stars after several years. The rankings and leagues are fluid, and the enormous global market means players move frequently. Just about every country on the planet has a soccer league, and while most of them play through the winter months, many of them are staggered in order to make room for international tournaments later in the year. These teams are colloquially known as "clubs."   The English Premier League, generally considered the best league in the world, plays from late August to early May. La Liga (Spain), Seria A (Italy), Bundesliga (Germany), and Ligue 1 (France), the other major European leagues, all run on similar timelines.  Major League Soccer, America's league, runs from March to October. Liga MX, the Mexican league, runs in both the summer and winter. All sports are more fun if you have someone to root for. Pick a team or league based on whatever feels right to you, whether it is your hometown, has your favorite player, or simply seems like a fun team to root for. Even individual leagues have their own intricacies, quirks, and unique facets:   The English Premier League is where all the best players go because it has the most money. The play is crisp, tactical, and fast, and there...

Watch sound engineers work. Ask sound engineers if you can help in any way. Take any opportunity you can get. Intern at a recording and production company.

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

Go to a local bar or club that has live music, or the booth at a theater during a play, and watch what the sound person does. Pay attention to the set up of cords and sound boards. Watch how they interact with people. Take note of when they adjust levels and what the result is. Lots of churches have high quality sound systems and people who run them, so this is also a great place to go for an opportunity to watch. The music industry involves a lot of making connections and getting your foot in the door. Once you find a sound engineer, ask if there is anything you can do, even if it just means taping cables down. You can start to build these connections, which may eventually lead to more involvement.  Some people may tell you no. Maybe they don’t want you in the way. You can be persistent and tell them you’ll do anything and won’t bother them. Still, there’s a time to give up and find someone else to ask. If you are at a venue and you see people setting things up, ask if you can help. They will most likely welcome another set of hands. This is an industry that takes a while to work up the ranks into top professional jobs. If you have the opportunity to carry in sound equipment, do it. Maybe sometime you will get to help set everything up. Then you may get to run a sound check. Every chance you get to learn a little more is a building block for your career.  Even though it can be hard, don’t think you are too good for anything. Just swallow your pride and take the chance to help out and get some experience. If you consistently show up at the same places and you are always willing to help in any way you are asked, people will start to notice and may trust you to do more important tasks. More than helping out at gigs, an internship will help you get more consistent experience. You may have to go unpaid for a while, but if you can afford to do this, you will learn enough to make up for the lack of pay. Find out if there is a studio near you and see what types of opportunities they have available. Since there are...

Watch the litter as a group. Interact with available puppies one by one. Ask to see health certificates of the the puppy and her parents. Take time to think it over.

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

Observe the puppies as a group first. You can learn a lot about a puppy's temperament by watching how they behave during group interactions.  Puppies who are timid are a bad sign. Even if only a few puppies seem shy, bark, and avoid contact, there's a good chance such behaviors are part of their genes. This means that even if certain puppies are friendly now, the tendencies towards skittishness might come out later.  Normal puppies will be friendly and trusting of strangers. They should greet you by jumping and nibbling on your clothes or shoelaces. Many people bulk at such behaviors as they worry the puppies are disobedient or hyperactive. This is probably not the case. They simply have not learned boundaries yet, which is a good thing. They're naturally trusting.  Watch for the puppies that seem neither too timid nor too bossy. You don't want to end up with a skittish puppy but you also do not want an alpha who might be hard to train. After you've observed the puppies as a group, ask to see the ones you're interested in individually.  You need to get a sense of how a puppy behaves when separated from her littermates. Ideally, the puppy will continue to be calm and friendly even away from the pack.  While interacting with the puppies one on one, take the opportunity to ask questions. Your breeder should have insights on each puppy's personality that you might miss in a short visit. Once you've selected a puppy, you should request to see the health certificates of that puppy as well as her parents.  Siberian huskies are generally pretty healthy, but certain genetic health issues should be a warning sign. Siberian huskies are prone to chronic conditions that require longterm, costly treatment.  Hip dysplasia is a condition in which the thigh bone fits improperly into the hip socket. Severe cases require surgery and can cause other problems, such as arthritis. Hip dysplasia can be devastating for dogs who love to run and pull. If you see a history of hip dysplasia, be wary. Seriously consider the possibility...

Watch the piercer prepare. Let the piercer disinfect the piercing area. Check the proposed location and angle of the industrial. Relax as the piercer creates the first hole. Remain calm and prepare for the second hole. Let the piercer clean and disinfect the area again. Pay for your piercing.

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

The first thing the piercer should do is wash his or her hands, and then put on a new pair of single-use surgical gloves. All the equipment should be in sealed, individual packages, should be opened in front of you, and should then be placed on a tray. At this time, the piercer will also select the right jewelry to fit your ear and choose a needle with the proper gauge.  Good piercers will walk you through every step of the process as they work. Ask questions if you have any. Ensure the piercer is using a bar that’s long enough to allow for swelling. Using a single bar is preferable because it guarantees the holes line up properly. This will clean the area, decrease the risk of infection, and make it easier to pierce your ear. Once your ear is disinfected, the piercer will mark the two piercing points with a marker and show you how they’ll line up. Don’t be afraid to ask the piercer to change the location or angle, because you can’t fix it afterward! The piercer will push a hollow, single-use needle through the skin to create the first hole. Once the needle is through, jewelry will be put in place immediately, and lined up to connect with the second hole. It’s important that you sit still and remain calm during the process, so try relaxation techniques like:  Deep breathing. Visualization to distract you from the pain. Meditation. Talking to the piercer or someone nearby. Continue breathing deeply and practicing your relaxation techniques. The needle will go in first to create the second hole, and then the jewelry will be put in place. Once everything is over, expect some level of pain and a burning sensation. You’ve just had two piercings, so it’s completely normal to feel pain and burning at this time. If you haven’t already, discuss aftercare with your piercer before you leave. As with any service industry, most piercers will be more than happy to receive a tip, with 15 to 20 percent being standard. Make sure you pick up any forms or sheets they might have that outline the aftercare procedure.

Watch the sky for a flash of lightning. Count the number of seconds until you hear thunder. Calculate the distance from lightning in miles or kilometers. Calculate the distance from lightning in feet or meters.

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

If you have a digital or analog watch, begin timing as soon as you see the lightning and stop as soon as you hear the thunder. If you don’t have a watch, do your best to count the seconds accurately. Say "One one thousand, two one thousand..." in your mind as you count. Sound travels one mile every five seconds and one kilometer every three seconds. Therefore, if you want to find out how far you are from lightning, divide the number of seconds by 5 if you want the answer in miles and divide it by 3 if you want the answer in kilometers. The delay between when you see lightning and when you hear thunder occurs because sound travels much more slowly than light. Here's what you do:  Let's say you counted 18 seconds. To find your distance from the lightning in miles, divide 18 by 5 to get 3.6 miles. To find your distance from the lightning in kilometers, divide 18 by 3 to get 6 kilometers. Though you won't be able to get a completely accurate result because the weather may vary in temperature and humidity, which will slightly affect the speed of sound, this is a good way to estimate how far you are from the lightning. Sound travels at a speed of about 344 meters, or 1,129 feet, per second. To calculate your distance from the lightning in meters, just round 344 down to 340 and multiply the number of seconds by 340. To calculate your distance from the lightning in feet, just round 1,129 up to 1130 and multiply the number of seconds by 1130. Here's how you do it: Let's say you counted 3 seconds. Multiply that number by 340 to get your distance in meters. 3 x 340 = 1020 meters. Multiply that number by 1130 to get your distance in feet. 3 x 1130 = 3,390 feet.


Watch the temperature inside the tumbler. Keep the compost moist. Observe the color and consistency. Use the compost.

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

Maintaining the correct temperature is crucial on two fronts for composting. First, a higher temperature will help break down the compost materials faster. Second, the compost needs to get hot enough to kill any unwanted pathogens and weed seeds. Measure the temperature with a thermometer. Ideally, it will be no lower than 140 degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees Celsius). If your compost is not getting hot enough, you can add manure or commercial products to increase the nitrogen levels and provide more heat. Proper hydration will keep the compost from clumping into a hardened mess, or turning into a slush. The compost should stay about as moist as a wet sponge that has been rung out. If your compost is too dry, you can add water directly to the mix. Many composters will refer to green and brown composting materials. Keep in mind that this actually has nothing to do with the color of the materials or the compost. It actually refers to the carbon (brown) and nitrogen (green) content of the material. Your compost should be a dark brown. Your compost is ready once it has a dark brown color and all of the materials have broken down. It will have a similar consistency to soil. Empty the tumbler and use the compost in your garden or potted plants. It will provide nutrients that the plants need to grow. Some tumblers unload from the side. Others unload from the top or bottom.


Watch what you eat and drink. Limit your time in front of screens. Don’t check work emails. Eat a nutritious breakfast. Exercise before work.

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

After a long day of work it is tempting to eat and drink glutinously. Keep in mind your productivity of the following work week as you consider your dinner options. Instead of a steak and potatoes, eat salmon, brown rice, and broccoli. There are plenty of dinner options that aren’t fatty. Don’t drink too much if you work the following day. It is nearly impossible to be productive with a hangover. Don’t go home and binge watch Netflix or consistently bring up your Facebook feed. It’s okay to relax after a day of work, but limit the amount of time you spend in front of screens. Instead spend time with your family, volunteer, or read a book. Play a board game with your friends. Stimulate your brain by not staring at too many screens on your time off. This type of stimulation will help you sleep better, and cause you to feel better at work. Don’t worry too much about work at home. Home should be your time for yourself instead of the company. It’s okay to do a little bit of work at home, but don’t stress about the amount of assignments you need to complete. When you’re in bed, don’t check your work emails. Leave the emails for the morning. Avoid eating donuts or other foods with high amounts of sugar for breakfast. Certain foods will boost your productivity at work by fueling your brain to work consistently without your focus crashing. Try some of these beneficial breakfast options:  Eggs Bananas Yogurt Blueberries Exercising before work will give you a head start on productivity. You don’t need to do anything extensive, but a quick 20 minute run or swim can keep your body awake and alert at work. You can also reap the benefits of a healthy mentality by exercising after work.


Watch what you eat. Drink after your meal. Avoid oily and spicy foods. Wear clothes that are loose around your waistline. Take supplements to promote digestion. Add a probiotic to your diet. Take artichoke leaf extract three times a day. Check your consumption of nitrates and anti-inflammatory drugs. Rest after eating. Consult your doctor about a prescription medication.

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

If you experience indigestion or heartburn frequently, you should focus on treating the cause of your indigestion rather than simply addressing its symptoms. Start this process by monitoring your consumption and meal habits.  Seemingly small habits such as eating too rapidly, taking large mouthfuls, or overeating with excessive portions can aggravate your indigestion.  Once you've noticed your bad mealtime habits, correct them by eating smaller meals over a longer period of time.  Eating slowly allows your stomach more time to digest and smaller portions lessen its workload. Problems with the stomach after eating is called non-ulcer dyspepsia, which is also known as indigestion. Waiting until an hour after mealtime to drink a beverage can help ease indigestion.  While it may seem counterintuitive, chugging water with your meals can dilute the digestive acids in your stomach and make them less effective. Opt for water or milk rather than soda, coffee, or alcohol, as these can be abrasive to your stomach lining and make you more uncomfortable. Indigestion is frequently caused by consuming hard-to-digest foods which aggravate pain and increase acid production.  One of the easiest ways to curb indigestion, then, is figuring out which foods trigger dyspeptic symptoms and eliminating them from your diet. Instead, opt for bland foods such as oatmeal, broths, toast, applesauce, crackers, and rice. These items are easy to digest and thus won't put undue stress on your digestive system. This can seem like a small consideration, but in fact your clothes can have a big impact on indigestion and acid reflux.  Super tight waists on pants or skirts can dig into your abdomen and put pressure on the lower esophageal sphincter, impeding regular digestion and causing stomach acids to rise up your esophagus. This doesn't mean you have to ditch your favorite skinny jeans entirely.  Just make sure you slip into some looser fitting clothing before digging into a big meal. Digestive enzymes, hydrochloric acid supplements, and ...
