Determine whether your symptoms match up with obstructive sleep apnea. If you regularly take any prescribed medication, check the bottle or the packaging to see if snoring is listed as a side-effect. Ask your doctor if your age could play a role in your snoring problem. Ask your doctor if your body type could play a role in your snoring problem. Ask your doctor about using an anti-snoring mouthpiece if your snoring problem does not respond to sinus treatment or lifestyle changes. Consider sleeping with expiratory positive airway pressure (EPAP) valves in your nostrils. Consider anti-snoring devices only in extreme cases.

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

Frequent, loud snoring may be a sign of sleep apnea--particularly if your snoring is punctuated by pauses followed by choking or gasping. Sleep apnea causes shallow, interrupted breathing, and keeps people from slipping into the deep REM sleep that restores their energy for each coming day. About 1/2 of people who snore loudly suffer from sleep apnea.  You may be suffering from sleep apnea if, in addition to snoring, you are abnormally sleepy during the day. Your reflexes and your concentration may be impaired. Bear in mind that some of these symptoms can sprout from many other roots. Sleep apnea is treatable. Identify the symptoms and speak with your doctor. The drugs that you're ingesting might be making your snoring worse. If you are not sure, ask your doctor. Snoring tends to worsen as you age. Many of the above solutions still apply to elderly snorers. As you reach middle age, your windpipe becomes narrower, and you gradually lose muscle tone in your throat. You may be able to reverse this effect by performing throat exercises. There is a strong link between snoring and diabetes: people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) are nine times more likely to suffer from diabetes. These "dental appliances" are designed to prevent your soft throat tissues from relaxing to the point that they obstruct the airway.  Some devices bring your lower jaw forward, some lift the roof of your mouth, and some stop the tongue from falling back over your windpipe.  Be wary about commercial sleep aids. Ask your doctor about the risks, costs, and benefits, and make an informed decision about whether an anti-snoring mouthpiece is right for you. These devices use the power of your breath to create a gentle pressure that helps keep your respiratory passages open. Again, be wary about commercial sleep aids. Ask your doctor about the risks, costs, and benefits, and make an informed decision about whether an EPAP device is right for you. Before you purchase an expensive valve or mouthpiece, try to identify any habits or environmental...


Determine which airlines you want to focus on. Keep specifics in mind when writing your resume and cover letter.

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

As you will probably find, not all airlines are equal.  While they all provide essentially the same type of service, they provide that service very differently.  You need to decide which airlines you prefer, and which airlines you do not want to work for.  Do not feel you need to apply for jobs at all airlines just to get your foot in the door.  Pick only the airlines you feel you could work at for a long period of time happily. If the airline’s career website doesn’t give you a good enough view of the organization, consider speaking to someone who works at that airline.  Since many of this positions are customer-facing, it wouldn’t be hard to find someone to speak to even if you don’t know anyone already. Narrow down the list of airlines you want to apply to and spend more time reviewing the website and job postings from those airlines. When writing each section of your resume, keep the keywords and terms you’ve found in mind.  Incorporate as many of these keywords as you can, but don’t use ALL of them.  Incorporate some of your own creativity into your resume and cover letter as well.   Profile Summary — incorporate some of these adjectives into your description of yourself.  For example, instead of “experienced flight attendant with 5+ years of service,” put “compassionate in-flight crew member with over 5 years of dedicated and energetic experience."  Core Competencies— incorporate both the adjectives and specific requirements into your list of skills and abilities.  For example, instead of “hands-on experience in delivering onboard services while remaining in the boundaries defined by airline policies and protocols,” use “passionate about delivering a memorable and relaxing flight for all passengers by providing excellent service based on the airline’s safety procedures."  Previous Experience — use the keywords and terms from the job positing to explain how you performed your previous jobs.  Don’t worry if your previous experience isn’t airline-related.  For example, if the job posting indicates that...


Determine which case study type, design or style is most suitable to your intended audience. Determine the topic of your case study. Search for case studies that have been published on the same or similar subject matter.

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

Corporations may choose illustrative case study method to show what has been done for a client; schools, educators and students may select cumulative or critical case study method and legal teams may demonstrate exploratory (investigative) case study method as a way to provide factual evidence. Whatever case study method you're employing, your purpose is to thoroughly analyze a situation (or "case") which could reveal factors or information otherwise ignored or unknown. These can be written about companies, whole countries, or even individuals. What's more, these can be written on more abstract things, like programs or practices. Really, if you can dream it, you can write a case study about it. Once you've picked your angle, you need to determine what your research will be about and where it will take place (your case site). What have you talked about in class? Have you caught yourself coming up with questions during your reading? Start your research at the library and/or on the Internet to begin delving into a specific problem. Once you've narrowed down your search to a specific problem, find as much about it as you can from a variety of different sources. Look up information in books, journals, DVDs, websites, magazines, newspapers, etc. As you go through each one, take adequate notes so you can find the info later on! Talk to your professors, go to the library, surf the web until your bum falls asleep. You don't want to replicate the research that has already been done.  Find out what has been written before, and read the important articles about your case's situation . When you do this, you may find there is an existing problem that needs solution, or you may find that you have to come up with an interesting idea that might or might not work in your case situation. Review sample case studies that are similar in style and scope to get an idea of composition and format, too.

Determine which martial art interests you the most. Search online for classes in your area. Consider visiting the class.

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

Watch videos online of different martial artists to get an idea of which style you want to learn. If you are looking for practical self-defense tactics, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, or Krav Maga may be for you. If you want to learn a more traditional martial art that also puts an emphasis on discipline and tradition, Wing Chun Kung Fu, Taekwondo, and Karate are great martial arts to learn.  Brazilian jiu-jitsu and Krav Maga put an emphasis on grappling, ground and pound, and submissions. Krav Maga also covers stand-up striking and weapon defense. Muay Thai is a stand-up discipline from Thailand that emphasizes punches, kicks, elbows, and knees. Wing Chun Kung Fu, Taekwondo, and Karate concentrate on stand-up striking, which includes punches and kicks. You can use all martial arts for self-defense, but Brazilian jiu-jitsu, Muay Thai, and Krav Maga use the most practical tactics and concentrate less on ceremony and “set-up” scenarios. Look for martial arts classes in your area to see what’s available to you. Depending on where you live, there may be limited options for specific disciplines. Read online reviews of the different schools you find to help narrow down your decision.  Some colleges and universities have martial arts classes that you can sign up for. See if your local community center offers classes. If you’re still unsure of whether you want to sign up, many schools allow prospective students to visit a class. You may also be able to get a free first lesson. Call the school or dojo that you are interested in and ask whether you can visit the class before signing up. You can ask by saying something like, “I’m new to martial arts and wanted to watch a class before signing up. Is that possible?”


Determine which part you can sing. Select and join a choir. Nail your audition.

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

Choir music is divided into four basic parts: Soprano (C4 to C6), Alto (G3 to F5), Tenor (D3 to A4), and Bass (E2 to E4). Test out your vocal range by playing the notes in those ranges on a piano and sing along to see which part is most comfortable.  Classical voice types are further categorized into parts like Mezzo Soprano, Contralto, and Baritone. If you join a beginners' choir, the director may be able to help you determine which part you can sing. Select the kind of choir would best suit you depending on your age, your level of experience, the type of music you like to sing, and how much time you are able to commit.  World music groups (or natural voice choirs), community choirs, and church choirs tend to be more informal and don't usually require auditions.  Contemporary or classical choirs, gospel choirs, barbershop choirs, and a cappella groups are more advanced and are likely to require auditions.  Children's choirs are a great option for younger singers whose voices don't blend in as well with adult voices. The directing style will also be geared toward children to help them learn and have fun. For some choirs, you may be able to join right away, but for others, you will need to audition. If the director gives you a piece to audition with, find your part and practice it until you feel comfortable. If you're allowed to choose your own piece, find one that suits your vocal range and practice it well for your audition. Select a song within the genre that the choir typically sings.  The director may ask you to do some vocal exercises or scales to test your control and range. They may also want you to demonstrate your sightreading skills and pitch memory.


Determine which symptoms of eczema you have. Try to determine what causes your flare ups. Inspect your clothing. Consider other environmental factors. Assess known and unknown food allergies. See a professional.

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

This could be dry skin, itching, redness, rashes, scaly skin, oozing, crusting, swelling, and/or dark colored patches of skin. Make an appointment to see your doctor to make sure you don’t have any complications or related conditions. They can also prescribe a treatment plan for your individual symptoms. In the meantime, however, there are steps you can take to decrease your flare ups. Have you just bought a new shower gel? Does your new job require to wash your hands more than you usually would? If nothing has changed recently in your life that you think could have caused a flare up, it may be that some of the ingredients in products you use every day have changed. Take a thorough look through all of your household items, and see if at least one of them could be causing or exacerbating your eczema. Does anything make it better or worse if you eliminate something, like your lotion or your face wash? If your flare up is located on a patch of skin covered by clothing, there is a good chance that might be the cause. If you find that clothing is causing eczema because of the way it is washed, you only need to change your laundry detergent. If it is due to the fabrics and materials themselves, you may need to get rid of that article of clothing.  Next time you wash your clothes, make sure they are rinsed of detergent completely. If you still have skin problems, the problem could be with a certain article of clothing.  The rivets or buttons may be giving you eczema. Check clothing for rivets or snaps that may contain nickel. Your skin may have a sensitivity or allergy to a blend of fabric. If changing detergents did not help, you may need to quit wearing that article of clothing. Have you been exposed to abnormal levels of poor air quality, bacteria and viruses, heat or humidity, chemicals, or dust and pollen? Have you been sweating or had higher levels of stress than normal? Are you in the midst of a season change? If any of these are true, it is possible that returning to a normal lifestyle will allow your eczema...


Determine which test you are taking. Prep for texts from newspapers, books, and journals for the Academic test. Get ready for a wider variety of texts for the General exam. Expect both tests to have 40 questions total based on several reading passages. Be prepared to have only an hour to complete the Reading test.

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

There are 2 types of IELTS tests: Academic and General. The Academic test is for test-takers who hope to be accepted to universities or professional training programs. The General test is intended for people who want to receive secondary education or to live and work in an English-speaking country. While the Listening and Speaking portions of the IELTS test are the same, the Reading and Writing portions are different. The IELTS General test is a requirement for migration to Australia, New Zealand, Canada, and the UK. The Academic Reading test prepares you for jobs or a college degree. You should expect to encounter reading materials that you might find in an undergraduate or graduate-level classroom, or in a professional training program. There will be 3 texts, and at least 1 will contain a logical argument. For example, you might get an excerpt from a novel or an article that summarizes a scientific researcher’s findings and conclusions. Since the General exam is aimed at test-takers with broader goals, it will contain different materials. There are 3 sections designed to test people on different aspects of life in an English-speaking country.  The first section is “social survival.” The passages will be notices, advertisements, and other materials about everyday life in an English-speaking country. The second section, “workplace survival,” will contain texts related to jobs, such as a job listing, work contract, or training manual. The third section on “general reading” focuses on descriptive texts, and the passage might be from a novel, newspaper, or magazine. For the Academic test, there will be 3 passages. For the General test, section 1 could have 2 or more short passages, section 2 will have 2 short passages, and section 3 will contain 1 longer passage. Answer 40 questions based on the given passages. There may be several more questions asked about 1 passage than the others, or there might be an almost equal amount of questions for all of the passages. You have an hour to read all of the passages and...

Determine which way the turns will be going -- clockwise or counterclockwise. Get a standard 52-card deck and shuffle them. Deal out 13 cards to each player.

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

Decide this ahead of time because it determines the way that you will be dealing the cards. Also, it will cut down on arguments over whose turn it is. So, when someone asks, “Whose turn is it?” you will know. Count the cards to make sure there are actually 52 cards. Shuffle anyway that you like. Generally, the rule of thumb is to use the riffle shuffle, but if you don’t know how to do it other shuffle techniques such as the Hindu shuffle, weave shuffle or strip shuffle are fine as well. Ask the person next to you to cut the deck. Note the person who shuffles first because the person to the right or left --depending on if you choose clockwise or counterclockwise -- will shuffle next. Be sure to deal in the order that you have chosen.  For instance, if turns are to be  taken clockwise, then the cards should be dealt clockwise as well.The dealer gets his or her card last.  Players are allowed to look at their cards. They don’t have to wait until a certain time to flip the cards over as with some games. If you are playing with three players instead of four, each player can still be dealt the standard 13 cards, or you can deal the entire deck. It’s up to your own discretion. You might find it easier to organize your hand into pairs, triples and single cards. If this isn’t the first game, then the winner of the previous game goes first.


Determine who the new legal owner of the property should be. Remove the deceased owner's name from the property through probate. Wait for the title to be clear.

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

If the decedent left a will, naming one or more beneficiaries of the property, the beneficiaries are the new owners. If the decedent died intestate (without leaving a will), check your state's intestate inheritance statute to determine to whom the property passes.  In most common law states, property passes through the state's intestacy laws to the decedent's spouse and heirs. The amount of the estate awarded to each heir and any surviving spouse is specific to the state's intestacy laws. In a community property state, a surviving spouse (if applicable) is typically entitled to half of the community property, which is defined as all property that was acquired during the marriage. If the new owner to the decedent's property is found in the decedent's will, the will must be probated in order for the property ownership to change. The will should be filed with the probate court and the executor of the estate will commence with the probate process. For example, if Jill was the sole owner of her house, and left her house to her friend Mary after she died, the executor of Jill's estate would submit Jill's entire estate (including her house), to probate. When probate is concluded, the judge will typically order that “clear title” is transferred to the beneficiaries under the will.  Then, the order is recorded just like a deed would be. While clear title is usually issued at the time the estate is closed, in some states, such as California, you can petition the court to order that the title should be recorded in your name before probate closes, if you can provide evidence that you are entitled to the property.


Determine who will participate. Find industry leaders to participate. Create a conference website. Advertise. Solicit proposals. Begin accepting registrations.

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

There are many kinds of conferences, including academic, religious, and industry, and each of these types differs in types of participants. You need to be sure there is enough interest in the segment you are targeting before proceeding with planning. If you are only targeting a small group, such as employees of your company or members of your church, you do not have to take as many steps to publicize the conference. A simple email or two, along with a mention in the newsletter and/or at administrative meetings should be enough to publicize the conference. You need a big headliner or keynote speaker to help convince other people in the industry. Once you have confirmation that big names in the field will participate, you can include this information in your conference materials, such as your calls for participants. These days it is almost mandatory to have a digital presence for a successful conference. Find an available URL that includes the conference name or a logical derivative of it, so that it will be easy to find. Include all the important information about the conference at the website, and be sure to list the URL on all print materials and advertisements related to the conference.  On the website, be sure to include the date, time, and address of the conference venue, and names of any prominent speakers. You can also include information about transportation, lodging, area attractions, and you can attach the conference schedule when it is available, if desired. You can also update the website with a link to register when you are ready to open up registration. Start early (up to a year in advance) so that presenters can begin submitting proposals for session ideas. Depending on the size of your conference and your target audience, your approach will differ. Keep in mind where members of your target audience get their information about this industry or group. These might include:  Social media, such as the sponsoring organization's Facebook page and Twitter feed Listservs and e-mail contact lists Trade...


Determine why it is aggressive. “Hook train” especially aggressive snakes. Hold your snake more often than you feed it.

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

Unless you’re taming a hatchling or captive-bred snake, you’ll likely have to deprogram your snake of its aggressive behavior.  The first step to doing this is to determine what type of aggression your snake is showing.  There are two types of aggressive responses you can deprogram in snakes—territorial, or defensive responses, and feeding responses.  Territorial responses are instinctive and not an indicator of aggression.  Snakes live most of their lives in fear of being eaten by bigger predators (which includes humans) so this response is a defense mechanism that can be tamed with consistent, gentle care. Feeding responses are another natural, instinctive response.  Snakes are generally “taught” to bite whatever comes into their cage.  Because they assume anything that enters their cage is food, you might get bitten if you stick your hand into their cage without first deprogramming this response. Some species of snakes are more aggressive than others and might require more training.  If you’re dealing with a particularly aggressive species or snake, you’ll want to “hook train” it.  To do so, gently rub its body or push down on its head with a hook, or a similar inanimate object, every time you go to get it out of its cage.  Doing so will let your snake know it is not feeding time so there is no need to bite whatever enters the cage.  If your snake appears scared when you open the cage, spend a little more time rubbing its body with the hook until it appears to calm down.  For instance, if your snake coils into a ball, flattens out its body, or assumes a striking position, spend some time rubbing its body until it relaxes a bit.  Start rubbing your snakes body from its tail end and work up to its head.  Starting with its head could seem threatening, especially if your snake is already scared. The most common reason people get bitten is because their snake is reacting to its feeding response every time something enters its cage.  To deprogram it of this response, stop feeding your snake every week.  Instead,...


Determine why you want to quit. Identify other solutions. Find moral support. Write what you will say first. Practice with a friend or family member. Give yourself a pep talk beforehand.

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

Talking to your coach will be easier once you have defined the reasons why you need to leave. Perhaps you have an obvious reason, such as a medical condition. Maybe you’re just overwhelmed or stressed out by your duties. Being able to put your feelings into words will help you talk to your coach. Some reasons might be:  You have a medical condition or injury You need more time to focus on school or work You're not having fun anymore You no longer have the time You have family or personal reasons The coach or teammates are bullies If you are upset about quitting or if you are uncertain about your decision, there may be factors that can help you stay on the team. Think about your situation. Are there compromises that you and your coach can work out to help you stay on the team?  If you are quitting because the sport takes up too much of your time, perhaps the coach can cut back on practice hours, or perhaps practices can be rescheduled to fit more easily into your schedule. If you have problems with other people on the team, ask the coach to mediate your arguments. Perhaps you can work out a solution together. If you are injured, you can ask the coach if you can still attend practices and events on the sidelines until you have recovered. If you are not certain you will be able to play again, you can volunteer for other, non-intensive tasks such as water duty. If you can, it may help to ask others to back you up on your reasons for leaving. Perhaps they can provide you moral support while you talk to your coach, or maybe they can give you a signed note that explains your reasons for leaving.  If you are quitting for medical reasons, ask your doctor or therapist for a signed letter detailing your condition. They may state in the letter that they recommend you to stop the sport. If you are quitting to focus on your studies, you can ask a teacher or professor to write you a note, stating that you need to spend more time on your schoolwork. If you are in middle or high school, your parents might come with you when...


Determine why you're receiving the solicitations. Call 1-888-5 OPT OUT (or 1-888-567-8688). Call your credit card companies directly and ask them to stop sending you cash advance checks. Keep up with it.

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

Generally, credit card companies purchases information from credit reporting agencies. These lists generally consist of people pre-approved for a credit card based on a particular criteria determined by the credit company.  These criteria are not, however, the same to determine whether or not you'll be approved for the credit card eventually, so often the "pre-approved" tag is somewhat misleading. Make sure you're not agreeing to any mailing lists when if you use a credit agency to receive a credit report or a credit score. This one phone call tells all four major credit reporting agencies, including Equifax, Innovis, TransUnion, and Experian, to stop sending credit card offers. Listen to the options carefully on this automated number to opt-out for up to 5 years. You can also request to be permanently removed from their lists. You can also also make the request using their online form at https://www.optoutprescreen.com/opt_form.cgi Even if they come with your bill each month, cash advances usually start accruing interest immediately, so it's not a good idea to use them. If you do receive them and don't plan to use them, you should destroy them. The credit agency databases are consistently updated. Cross-referencing of the credit lists will also cause these solicitations to snowball. If you move or receive a credit score, these solicitations may start up again even if you've expressly canceled them. So don't wait, take action as soon as you start receiving unwanted credit solicitations.


Determine why your shower head is stuck.

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

When a shower head is in excellent condition, you should be able to remove it with your hands. If this is not possible, you will need to remove the shower head through other means. Before making any further attempts to remove your shower head, evaluate the fixture to determine why it is stuck:  Search for signs of rust—is there an orange or copper colored ring around the shower head’s connection to the shower arm? Search for signs of mineral build-up—is there a white ring around the the shower head’s attachment to the shower arm? If there are no signs of rust or mineral build-up, it is likely that your shower head is attached too tightly.


Determine your Samsung Galaxy's charging port type. Buy the matching HDMI adapter for your device. Buy an HDMI cable if you don't have one. Connect one end of the HDMI cable to your TV. Attach the other end of the HDMI cable to the adapter. Plug the free end of the adapter into your Samsung Galaxy. Turn on your TV. Change the TV's input to the "HDMI" option.

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

Most recent versions of Samsung Galaxies (e.g., the S8 and the Tab S3) use USB-C ports as their charging points, while some older items use micro-USB ports.  A micro-USB charger is trapezoid-shaped. A USB-C charger is oval-shaped with rounded-off ends. Depending on your Samsung Galaxy's charging port, you'll buy either a USB-C to HDMI adapter or a micro-USB to HDMI adapter.  You can typically find these adapters on sites like Amazon or in tech department stores like Best Buy. You can also buy HDMI cables that have a standard HDMI connector on one end and a USB-C or micro-USB connector on the other. If you don't have an HDMI cable, which is a cable with a thin, wide, pentagonal connector at both ends, buy one for your TV before proceeding. If you bought a USB-C or micro-USB to HDMI cable, skip this step. There should be a thin, wide slot labeled "HDMI" (or "HDMI IN") on the back or side of your TV; plug the HDMI cable into this slot. The HDMI cable only fits one way, so don't force it. The HDMI cable should slide into the HDMI port on the adapter. Skip this step if you bought a fixed HDMI to USB-C (or micro-USB) cable. If you're attaching a phone or tablet, you'll plug the adapter into the charging port on the bottom of the Galaxy. For a Galaxy Book or similar computer, plug the adapter into the side or bottom of the screen. Press your TV's power button to do so. This will depend on your TV, but typically, you can press an Input or Video button on your TV itself to cycle through the available inputs until you arrive at the HDMI cable input. Once there, you should see your Samsung Galaxy's screen, though on phones and tablets, the screen must be on and unlocked to display. If your TV has multiple HDMI inputs (e.g., "HDMI 1", "HDMI 2", etc.), make sure that you switch to the HDMI input into which you plugged the cable.


Determine your art display layout. Choose a wall space that is proportional in size and orientation to the art you want to display. Display wall art at the appropriate level. Accentuate your wall art display with lighting.

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

This applies when you plan on hanging multiple pieces of wall art together, as a group. The size, shape, type and number of objects in your display will determine how they should be arranged. Here are some suggestions:  Lay art pieces on the floor in order to get a visual of how they relate to each other in size, form, subject, theme and color. Depending on the desired effect, you may want to keep similar colors grouped together, or you may want to scatter colors in a random pattern. Pay special attention to how different sized pieces relate to each other; Large, predominant pieces should be balanced with smaller, minor pieces. Additionally, it makes sense to group pieces according to subject and theme. Rearrange the objects as necessary, until you feel that they are pleasing to the eye and that they make sense logically, according to their characteristics. Make sure there are equal amounts of space between each piece. For displaying art on the wall, a good rule of thumb is to space art pieces 3 inches (7.62 cm) to 4 inches (10.16 cm) apart. Whether your art display is a single piece, multiple pieces, a focal point or an accentuation of the room's other features, it is important that you hang it in a way that stays in line with the room's size and layout. For example, a very high and narrow wall in a bathroom may be a good place to hang a vertical arrangement of three framed pictures, but not a good place to hang an over-sized, panoramic painting. Hang art at eye level. If you are displaying art in a group, then the center-point of the group should be at eye level. To determine a relative eye level, measure between 60 inches (152.4 cm) and 66 inches (167.64 cm) up from the floor. To display artwork at eye level in a sitting area, as in a dining room, hang the pieces at the eye level of the sitter. If you are using artwork to frame an architectural element or a piece of furniture, you should hang wall art within 10 inches (25.4 cm) of the object. Use soft lighting sources, such as specially-designed wall art...


Determine your audience. Figure out their level of expertise. Choose a catchy title. Get right to the point. Write the introduction. Summarize your solution.

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

Typically, you won't know your audience personally. However, you should identify as many factors as possible, such as professional needs, educational backgrounds, and job title(s). These aspects will determine how to form your argument. Mold your proposal to be relatable to your audience based on these factors. For example, if your topic is community gardens, appeal to your readers as property owners and parents, as well as community decision-makers. They'll be interested in learning about the impact of gardening and local food on their property values, their children's health, and their children's education. This will establish how simple or complex your paper should be. If your audience's expertise matches or is close to your own, you could include technical jargon. For a general audience, however, keep the paper as jargon-free as possible. If you must include specific terminology, use it sparingly and explain it. For example:  If you're writing a white paper for an engineer, you should include lots of technical details and be lengthy in your descriptions. If you're writing for a government official, focus on policy-related implications. If you're writing for a corporate audience, focus on cost-effectiveness and growth potential. Make it attention-grabbing but not over-the-top. Mention or allude to your problem. Some titles incorporate the words “white paper,” but this isn't mandatory. Tailor the language to a general audience. Some good examples include:  Closing the School-to-Prison Pipeline with Art Safer Cities through Community Gardens: A White Paper Assume your reader has a very busy life. Explain exactly what your white paper is about without adding unnecessary padding. Make your first couple of sentences engaging enough to grab their attention. Acknowledge your audience and how you intend them to use the paper. Summarize the present order of things and why it's a problem. Briefly discuss the arguments of your opposition and why you're proposing something different. For example, if you were writing...


Determine your basal metabolic rate (metabolism at rest). Calculate your total daily calorie needs using a formula known as the Harris-Benedict equation.

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

You can find an online calculator, or you can use the following formulas, depending on your gender:  Women: BMR = 655 + (4.35 x weight in pounds) + (4.7 x height in inches) - (4.7 x age in years)  Men: BMR = 66 + (6.23 x weight in pounds) + (12.7 x height in inches) - (6.8 x age in year) Once you have calculated your BMR, you can estimate your total calorie needs for different levels of activity.  Decreasing your metabolism means you are "turning down" your body's internal furnaces, which lowers your calorie requirements. Use your BMR to make the following calculations. If you:  Are inactive or exercise rarely: Calories to stay the same weight = BMR x 1.2  Exercise lightly 1 to 3 days per week: Calories to stay the same weight = BMR x 1.375  Exercise moderately for 3 to 5 days per week: Calories to stay the same weight = BMR x 1.55  Exercise actively for 6 to 7 days per week: Calories to stay the same weight = BMR x 1.725  Exercise intensely every day: Calories to stay the same weight = BMR x 1.9


Determine your basic metabolic rate. Determine your physical activity level. Figure out your needed daily calorie burn. Sweat the pounds away. Get plenty of sleep.

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

No matter what you're doing, your body is using energy at a certain rate. The BMR Calculator will calculate your Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR), that is, the number of calories your body burns if you were to do absolutely nothing all day. This will tell you how fast you're burning calories and therefore how much activity you must do and how many calories you need to cut to meet your weight loss goals. And yes, it does take into account your age, gender, and activity level.   BMR calculation formula for women: 655 + (4.35 x your current weight in pounds) + (4.7 x your height in inches) minus (4.7 x your current age in years).  BMR calculation formula for men: 66 + (6.23 x your weight in pounds) + (12.7 x your height in inches) minus (6.8 x your age in years). A number is assigned to each tier of activity. It is taken into consideration when calculating your daily calorie burn.  Little or no exercise	= 1.2 Light exercise (up to 3 days per week) = 1.375 Moderate exercise (3 to 5 days per week) = 1.55 Heavy exercise (6 to 7 days per week)	= 1.725 Very heavy exercise (intense workouts daily) = 1.9 To determine this caloric rate, multiply your BMR x your physical activity rate.  This is your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE). It may seem like a high number; don't forget: You burn calories even while sleeping. For example, if your BMR is 3,500 and you currently get moderate exercise, all you have to do is multiply 3,500 by 1.55 to get 5425 -- aka the number of calories burned to maintain your weight. For a goal of 20 pounds in a single month, you'll have to cut at least 2,000 calories a day using both diet and exercise. A steep goal, indeed. Since water comprises so much of the human body, our cells have a tendency to stash it away for future use. This can result in bloating and accumulation of water weight, tipping the scale higher and higher. Get rid of excess fluids by releasing water from the body in the form of sweat. An hour of continuous cardiovascular exercise or a twenty minute soak in the sauna can help...


Determine your beverage. Purchase your Tim Tams. Poise the Tim Tam for slamming.

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

You can drink virtually anything with your Tim Tams, so long as the liquid is not too thick (Tea or hot milk is a go to, water is frowned upon). Pudding, for example, would likely be difficult to Tim Tam slam. Research done by Arnott's, the company that created the Tim Tam, indicates some favorite beverages you might want to Tim Tam slam, including...  Coffee Port Hot chocolate If you do not live in Australia, you may have difficulty finding this delicious treat. While local grocers might not stock Tim Tams, you may be able to find these at an international food store or multicultural market.  There are many different varieties to choose from, including Tim Tam fingers and flavored Tim Tams. To accomplish the traditional slam, you'll want the biscuits labeled "Original" on the packaging. You may find that the long, thin version of Tim Tams, Tim Tam Fingers, make an even better straw. You may want to give this a shot once you've experienced the traditional Tim Tam slam with the original biscuit. Open your pack of Tim Tams and remove one from the packaging. You'll want to hold the Tim Tam between your pointer finger and thumb, with your fingers being placed roughly in the middle of the cracker. You may want to have some napkins or paper towel on hand. The Tim Tam will melt as your beverage passes through it. The melted chocolate will transfer to your fingers easily.


Determine your body shape Emphasize your bust if you have an apple body shape. Wear formfitting clothes that accentuate your waist if you're a rectangle shape. Choose pieces that hug your curves if you have an hourglass shape. Go with clothes that accentuate your upper body if you have a pear shape. Accentuate your waist and legs if you have an inverted triangle body shape. Opt for clothes that are comfortable and fit you well. Wear colors that look great with your skin’s natural undertones.

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

to help you choose flattering pieces. While everybody is different, most female bodies fall into 1 of the following body shape categories: pear, apple, straight, inverted triangle, or hourglass. Start by measuring around the fullest part of your chest, the smallest part of your waist, and the widest part of your hips. Then, rank your bust, hip, and waist measurements from largest to smallest.  If your bust and waist are smaller than your hips, you are a pear shape. If your bust is larger than your waist and hips, you’re an inverted triangle. If your bust, waist, and hips are about the same, you have a rectangle shape. If your waist is wider than your bust and hips, you're an apple shape. If your waist is smaller than your bust and hips, you have an hourglass shape. If you have an apple body shape, wear tops that highlight your bust and show off your shoulders. Try to avoid clingy materials around the waist area, and gravitate toward thin belts rather than thick ones. Solid colors tend to look better than busy patterns on apple bodies, but feel free to experiment!  You can also choose to emphasize shapely legs with tights and skirts. Keep in mind that these aren't hard and fast rules—there is plenty of room for experimentation. For rectangle body shapes, try form-fitting tops and  scooped necklines to give your body more curves. Skinny jeans and dresses that emphasize your waist are also great options.  Stay away from shapeless dresses, shoulder pads, and boxy tops and coats. Cinch loose clothes at the waist with your favorite belt so that your shape doesn't get lost in the fabric. If you’re an hourglass, go with tops, pants, and dresses that hug your curves and emphasize your waist. Avoid shapeless and baggy clothing.  Stay away from pieces with extra fabric at the hips or bust to keep your look proportionate. Avoid wearing ruffles or pleats around your waist or hips. Be sure to wear supportive undergarments that fit you well! For pears, try wearing tops in bright colors and prints to draw attention to your...


Determine your body type. Play up your curves for straight figures. Bypass straight cut waists for hourglass figures. Find a higher rise in the back for full legs and thighs. Counterbalance your tummy with a front rise in the waist. Try your potential purchase before paying.

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

The shape of your legs and rear will influence the kind of jeans that are most flattering for your figures. You should also keep in mind that where black has a slimming effect, white tends to give the impression greater fullness. Look at the following list and choose the shape that best matches your body:  Straight figured individuals will have a chest and waist that are roughly the same size, with an only slightly tapered waist.  Hourglass figured individuals have an equivalent chest and hips with a well defined, smaller waist.  Full hips and large thighed individuals will have fuller, more curvaceous lower body. You can accomplish this by choosing a pair of jeans that make use of pocket decorations, like stitching. Flaps and other stylish embellishments to the back pockets will give your bum a perkier appeal. You should try to distance yourself from bell shaped white jeans or pairs that make use of flared designs. These can throw off the natural symmetry of your figure. A straight cut along the waist of your pants can create a gaping appearance or discomfort for your hourglass figure. A contoured waistband will save you from this fashion faux pas.  You might also try on a pair of straight-leg jeans. These can bring balance to hourglass figures. Keep away from jeans too wide-legged in cut. These can give a boyish impression to your figure. A pair that has both a contoured waist band and a higher rise to its cut in back than in front will contain your curves in the most flattering way. The better fit of this cut will also prevent the jeans from sliding down. Legs that are tapered can not only be uncomfortable for this body type, but the slimming effect of a taper will make your thighs appear even larger. White jeans that rise in front will prevent the appearance of the dreaded "muffin top." With this cut of jeans, you can still rock the white jean-style! Pants that are stiff and have little give to the fabric can dig into your stomach and feel uncomfortable. These cuts should be avoided. Sometimes even the...


Determine your budget Do research and then book your lodging. Shop around for cheap transportation. Plan activities.

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

.  Look for ways to save money on the wedding and aim for a honeymoon that you can afford. This will not be your only vacation with your new spouse and you should never go into debt to pay for it – if you do, it'll just wind up being stressful. There are many options for cheaper honeymoons that will have just as many positive memories as expensive honeymoons without damaging your finances. Always plan on spending more money than you think you will need. Little costs add up, especially if you are in a tourist destination. If you think you will spend a thousand dollars, be open to the fact that it could be closer to twice that, depending on your location and how frugal your plans are. Do you want to stay in a hotel? A log cabin? A bed and breakfast? A cabin or a small bed and breakfast can be a quiet retreat with few other guests that give your trip a more intimate feel. However, a fancy hotel can make you feel like a red-carpet star. What are you and your partner's preferences?  Once you know what you and your partner would like, make sure to research your options well. Do the places you're considering have good reviews? Do they fit your budget? Are they available for the dates needed? Are there restaurants and things to do nearby? Location is very important, too. Honeymoon suites are often the most expensive, but don't often offer amenities very different from standard or deluxe rooms (unless you can manage a free upgrade, then they're definitely worth it). While it's understandable to want to broadcast your new marriage, go in with the understanding that you will be spending a lot of time outside of the room and do not need to bust your budget on lodging. Ask about the honeymoon suite, but if it's outlandish, know that your trip will still be amazing – after all, it's about you two, not where you stay. Do you want to fly to your destination? Take the train? Drive? A train ride to your destination might give you a change of mood that is also cheaper and often more reliable than flying. However, distance...


Determine your budget before choosing a bike. Test the bike before you buy it. Check that the bike has enough resistance levels. Check the weight limit of the bike. Buy a bike online if you want convenience. Check the store's return policy. Review the warranty of the bike you want to buy.

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

There is a bike for every budget. If you prefer a more luxurious feel to your bike, then you might want to plan for a larger budget of $500 and above. If you only need basic features, then consider a less expensive model that costs less than $500. Make sure the bike fits you properly. It is important that the seat height is correct, and you're not sitting too far away from the handlebars. Make sure that your feet don't slip while you pedal. Resistance levels help you vary your workouts. You can also warm up and cool down by gradually increasing or lowering the resistance level. Stability is important in an exercise bike. If the bike wobbles, it is probably not the right weight for you. Make sure that your weight isn’t above the maximum supported weight, otherwise you can put your safety at risk. Buying online offers you the convenience of shopping in the comfort of your home. Many stores will display a whole range of products for comparison.  When buying online, determine the bike’s stability by checking its weight limit. Most stores will allow you to return equipment, whether you buy it in-store or online. When buying online, you can often check the return options for your purchase in the order details page of your account. A warranty is a written guarantee that exercise bike manufacturers grant to buyers, promising to repair or replace components of an exercise bike within certain time limits. Look at a warranty that covers the bike for a minimum of two to three years.


Determine your budget. Choose a destination. Determine the travel dates. Find accommodations. Confirm the vacation trip is an appropriate gift. Purchase the trip.

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

Before you plunge into trip planning, consider your budget for the gift. How much can you spend on the vacation trip gift? Think about whether you can afford to pay for just the travel ticket, more than one ticket, or accommodations as well. Come up with a solid amount of money you can spend on the gift and go from there. For example, you may be able to afford to spend $500 on the gift, which will cover travel expenses but not accommodations for two people. Or you may be able to spend $1000 on the gift, which will cover travel expenses and accommodations for one person. Start by determining where you would like to send this person as a gift. Perhaps the person always talks about taking a beach vacation in Mexico or they have always wanted to travel overseas to see a relative. You may decide to choose a destination that will fulfill the person’s lifelong dream or a spot they have often mentioned travelling to. Ask yourself, “Where would this person enjoy travelling to?”  You could also pick a destination that you think they may enjoy going to, such as a tropical destination or a destination in Europe. Or you may opt for a destination like Disneyland or Graceland if you think the person will enjoy going there. Another option is to leave the destination blank and allow the person to choose their own destination once you give them the gift. You may set aside a certain amount of money for the gift and tell the person they can travel anywhere within that budget. To book the vacation trip for the person, you will need to choose the travel dates. You may opt for flex dates if you are not sure when the person will be free to take the trip, as flex dates allow you to change the travel dates if necessary. Or you may plan the travel dates for a time you know the person is going to free, such as spring break, summer break, or holiday break. If you do purchase the trip with set travel dates, make sure the person will be available for travel on those dates. You may need to check with the person’s partner or family to...


Determine your budget. Figure out if you want to rent a car or drive your own. Find and reserve lodging. Pack enough clothing and toiletries for the trip. Bring phone chargers and laptops.

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

Set a budget for the overall trip so that you know what you can see and where you can go. Keep in mind that you'll have to pay for gas, lodging, food, and any entry fees that might be associated with the events or places you want to visit. If you have a limited amount of money to spend, find free things that you can see or do on your trip. Many historic sites, outdoor art installations, and markets are free of charge. The cost of driving your own car or renting one cross country will be about the same. Some rental companies have locations coast to coast, so it's possible that you can do a one-way cross-country drive and drop the car off at the destination.  Driving your own vehicle cross country will save you upfront money on rental fees but will cost money in repairs from wear and tear on the road. Consider renting a fuel-efficient car to save you gas money. When you go cross-country, you'll need a place to stay when you stop driving. Search online for hotels or motels that are in places where you want to stop. If you're looking for cheaper alternatives, you can also try house sharing websites like Couchsurf, Airbnb, or hostels to save some money. Unless you plan on buying things as you travel, you'll need enough clothes for the length of the trip. After planning the route of your trip, determine how many days the trip will take, and how many pairs of clothes you'll need. Remember to bring basic toiletries as well, like a toothbrush, razors, deodorant, and any prescription medicine. If you are plan on working on your drive, you'll need to have the proper technology. Luckily, many motels and hotels come with free WiFi so that you can respond to emails and do work while you're on the road.


Determine your budget. Research costs of living. Decide how much time you have to travel. Consider travel deals.

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

Figure out exactly how much you can afford to spend on travel, so that you aren’t breaking the bank for this trip. At the same time, determine what luxuries you can and can’t do without. With this info, whittle your list of preferred destinations down even further according to cost.  Ask yourself if you are willing to stay at a campground or hostel in order to see the sights you want to see, or if you need comfier accommodations. Make the same call regarding food: is dining out an integral part of your dream vacation, or are you willing to live on peanut butter sandwiches to reduce costs? First, come up with a list of items that you expect to purchase while travelling. Then, for each destination you have in mind, research the costs of those items to make sure they don’t exceed your budget. Remember that an American dollar, for example, doesn’t go as far in NYC as it might in Smalltown, USA.  Factor in basic items (like, say, grilled cheese sandwiches if that’s what you’ll be living on) as well as items specific to your trip (such as theater tickets). If you are considering other countries, also factor in the exchange rate between their currency and yours. Also consider whether each destination has a tourist season, when costs may rise above their off-season norm. Now that you have a firm budget, figure out how long it has to last you. Determine how many days (including travel time) you will spend away from home. Use this number to better decide which activities you want to focus on and how much money you are willing to spend on them.  A brief trip (like a week or two) may enable you to spend more on luxuries like fine dining and accommodations. Or, it may make a steady diet of PB&J seem more doable so you can spend your money on things like scuba gear rentals, Broadway tickets, or high-end shopping.  A longer trip of a few weeks will allow you to visit multiple places, such as all of Holland instead of just Amsterdam. You may have to sacrifice some luxuries in order to stretch your budget, but with so much...


Determine your character’s major goals and motivations. Define your character’s fears and insecurities. Give your character interests and passions. Let your character have flaws. Provide your character with unique traits, habits, and quirks.

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

Your character’s feelings, beliefs, and actions won’t make a lot of sense unless you have a good sense of their underlying desires, needs, and goals. Identify what goals your character is trying to achieve and think about why (and how) they wish to achieve them.  These goals and motivations can be either large or small in scale. For example, in an individual scene, maybe your character’s goal is to slip out of a party unnoticed. Her motivation might be that she’s feeling overwhelmed and wants to be alone. On a larger scale, maybe your character’s goal is to win the state spelling bee. Her underlying motivation could be to gain the approval of her favorite teacher or to show up one of her rivals in school. Remember that what your character wants is not always the same as what they need. For example, perhaps your character wants to be a famous movie star, but what he really needs is to be loved for who he is. Your character’s underlying fears are just as important as their desires and motivations. Think about what your character is trying to avoid, and why. How do their fears affect their choices and reactions to the situations in which they find themselves? For example, maybe your character is afraid of rejection. He might avoid telling his love interest how he really feels because of this fear. Your character will feel more real if they have well-defined hobbies, interests, beliefs, and opinions. Think about what your character might enjoy doing in their spare time, what kinds of books or movies they would enjoy, or how they would feel about a certain controversial issue.  Your character’s interests and opinions don’t have to align with your own—in fact, your character will ultimately be richer and more interesting if they differ from you in various ways. Research your character’s interests, hobbies, and opinions so that you can portray them realistically. For example, if your character enjoys beekeeping, read up on what’s involved. Nobody is perfect in real life, so your character won’t feel real unless they...


Determine your company's vision and how your compensation and benefits package can reflect this. Set incentives plans in line with company goals. Figure out how incentives will be paid. Make sure your compensation complies with federal and state laws.

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

Your compensation plan should be designed to further the future of the company and its goals. Look at the company's short term and long term goals. Is the goal to raise profits now or grow the company by accessing new markets over several years? Determine how this vision will be achieved. The compensation plan should then reflect these actions and drive employees to complete them.  For example, if you are an employee-orientated business that wants to nurture staff in order to keep them for many years, then your compensation plan should reflect this. A strong retirement plan with a generous matching system would entice employees to stay. In addition, base pay can be set at certain levels to further company goals. For example, if you wanted to attract the best talent, you could pay above-market pay to your employees. Your incentive plans (bonuses) should also be awarded in such a way that they drive the company's goals. Bonuses should be awarded to those employees that contribute to the company's growth and strategy in direct ways. For example, a salesman could be measured not on how they increase sales, but on how they increase profit. That is, how well they can create new business without spending a lot of the company's money to get it. Offering this incentive over a purely sales-based incentive plan will help in increasing profitability. The same is true for customer attraction and retention. Rewarding employees for keeping customers will result in them working to do so. Similarly, providing incentive to find new customers will achieve that end. You have several options when it comes to providing incentives. You can pay them in cash or in stock shares. You can provide then at different tiers based on achievement and other factors, or you can tie them directly to a performance metric like sales generated. Deciding which type of incentives to use will depend on your company's goals and culture.  For example, if you want to give employees more "ownership" in the company and motivate long-term work, paying them...


Determine your computer's use. Establish a budget. Know which components you need to buy.

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

Before you buy any components or establish a budget, you'll need to know what you plan on using the computer for. Standard desktop PCs which are used for things like browsing and minor programs (e.g., Microsoft Word and Excel) can use older, less expensive parts, while gaming- or editing-focused computers will need more powerful, up-to-date parts. It's too easy to start buying attractive parts without sticking to a budget, only to realize that you're out of money and don't have all of the necessary equipment to build your PC. Figure out a soft limit (e.g., $300) and a hard limit (e.g., $400) and try to stay within that range. Common sense should guide your purchasing as well. For example, if the processor for which you budget is $100 but a nicer, newer model is discounted from $200 to $120 at your local tech store, spending the extra $20 is probably a better long-term investment. No matter how expensive your computer, you will need the following components for your project:   Processor — Acts as the "brain" of your computer.  Motherboard — Serves as an interface between all of your computer's components and the processor.  RAM — Random Access Memory. More RAM will provide more "workspace" to increase your computer's performance. Think about the RAM as a table: more RAM gives you more room for doing things on that table. Less RAM is like having a smaller table!  Hard drive — Stores data. You can buy a traditional hard drive, or you can opt for a more expensive solid state drive (SSD) if you want an exceptionally fast drive.  Power supply — Powers all of your computer's individual components. The power supply is also the interface between your computer and the wall socket into which you plug your computer.  Case — Necessary for storing and cooling your components.  Graphics card — Used to render images on your computer. While most processors have a built-in graphics processing unit (GPU), you can buy a dedicated graphics card if you plan on gaming or using your computer for intensive editing.  Cooling system —...


Determine your course and destination island. Study your destination island’s landing procedures. File a formal float plan with the harbormaster prior to leaving. Bon Voyage!

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

A number of factors should be considered before choosing deciding when and where you plan to go:   Weather: Conditions in the channel vary dramatically, with shifting swells, high waves, and fog making the trip an even greater challenge. Anyone planning to make the voyage should consult the NOAA Weather Service (phone), the Channel Islands Internet Weather Kiosk (online), or weather radio via VHF-FM 162.475 MHz (marine forecast), VHF-FM 162.55 MHz, or VHF-FM 162.40 MHz (land-based observations).  Shipping Lanes: The trip across the channel will take boaters through some of the busiest shipping lanes on the California coast. Those making the trek should be aware of where the shipping lanes are and use extreme caution when crossing them. Additionally, the waters in and around the islands are occasionally shut down for military exercises.  General information: Before making the trip, all boaters should seek out the U.S. Coast Guard’s “Local Notice to Mariners,” which can be obtained by contacting the USCG directly. Nautical charts can be purchased at nearby marine stores, at bookstores, or online. It is suggested that boaters consult each island’s respective park ranger before landing. Boaters can use a VHF channel to hail the rangers, who will then ask the boater to switch to a different channel for the purpose of providing a brief orientation, landing instructions, and other details. Here is a brief look at landing protocol for the five major islands:   Santa Barbara Island: No permit is required. Boaters must access the island through the landing cove, as dock access is limited to unloading vessels.  Anacapa Island: No permit is required for boats landing at East Anacapa or Frenchy’s Cove. A permit is required for boats landing at Middle Anacapa and a park ranger must accompany any visitors. Access to West Anacapa is prohibited. Boaters may not use moorings located at East Anacapa; these are reserved for other boats. Visitors must tie their boats a reasonable distance from these moorings. Permits can be...


Determine your definition of success. Figure out your content area and audience. Create a channel Remove dissonant videos from your channel. Link directly to your subscription box.

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

Being successful on YouTube can range from gathering a certain number of subscribers to making money; before you set out to optimize your YouTube channel for "success", you should know exactly what you need to accomplish in order to meet that goal.  Subscriber success is usually a matter of promoting your videos as aggressively as possible. It will take time, but you can usually build up your subscriber base in this way. Monetary success is a bit trickier on YouTube, as you'll need to reach a lifetime video view of 10,000 and verify your account before you can start earning money. Keep in mind that success on YouTube is still largely contingent on luck. You can do everything correctly and still not gain subscribers or amass channel views due to YouTube's algorithm. If you don't already know what genre your videos belong to or who they're for, you'll have a hard time sticking to a specific content area, and your subscriber base won't grow due to having no real niche. Figuring out the what and the who of your videos will help streamline and focus your content. Once your videos begin to fit a specific pattern, you can make micro-improvements to them to help them continue to fit your audience as it grows. if you haven't yet done so. If you don't already have a YouTube channel, you'll want to set up a new YouTube channel for success by doing the following:  A unique, easy-to-remember username which summarizes your content An eye-drawing profile picture A concise but complete explanation of your channel's purpose If you have a channel which you've had for a while, you might want to delete the videos from your channel. This will help prevent confusion if viewers stumble across your older content while looking for your new-and-improved stuff. You don't have to delete your old videos if they fit your content area and production value. Any time you paste your channel's web address somewhere (e.g., in a video's description box or on social media), you can add a tag at the end of the address to link directly to the...


Determine your desired R-rating. Choose your insulation material. Prepare your attic. Collect your equipment. Be aware of irregularities. Install the vapor barrier.

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

The R-rating of insulation shows how effective it is; a higher R-rating is more effective. There are two R-rating scales, one US customary and one metric; the US scale is 5.68 times the metric scale so it should be obvious which one is being used. It's usually recommended that existing homes have their attics insulated to a rating of R-38 (US), which will typically require a layer of insulation 10–14 inches (25.4–35.6 cm) thick, depending on what type of insulation you use. If you're adding on to existing insulation, use this rule of thumb to guide your work: Once joists are level with, or slightly below, your level of insulation, the total should be adequate for an R-38 rating. Less than that, and you'll probably need to add more. Past a certain thickness, it may not be cost-effective to add more insulation even if you aren't sure your attic is at the R-38 level. If your existing insulation is more than about 10 inches (25.4 cm) thick, it might not be worth the extra money. There are a few different kinds of insulation available for your attic project. Choose whichever option works best for you in terms of cost, ease of installation, and effectiveness.  Batting insulation comes in low, medium, and high-density batts. The higher a bat's density, the less is required to reach your target R-rating. Batting is convenient and can be rolled out easily into rectangular spaces. Most batting is made of mineral wool or fiberglass, which requires protective gear to work with safely. Safer batting made from recycled foam is also available, though.  Loose fill insulation comes in bags and is used to insulate odd corners or angles where batting insulation won't fit as well. It can be hand-packed, but blowing it into place with a special machine makes it more even and complete. Attic insulation is installed in the floor of the attic, so you'll need to do a few things to make the process straightforward. Start by installing temporary lighting, such as clip lights, and laying a few sturdy boards along the joists to create a...


Determine your domain's value. Be realistic about the price. Hang up a "For Sale" sign. Park your domain.

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

Before you start taking offers or listing your domain, take stock of its value so that you can come up with a good price. There are a lot factors to take into consideration when determining the value of a domain, so if you are unsure it may be wise to contact a company that performs these assessments. Some of the major factors include:  Traffic - This is one of the primary influences of the domain's value. The number of visitors the domain gets from users typing the URL, searching, or coming from links will have a big impact on the value, especially if these visitors are monetized. Top Level Domains - The most valuable websites are ".com" websites. These are far more valuable than any other top level domain (.info, .biz, .net, etc.). Length and Readability - One- and two-word names in English are the most valuable commodities. They are especially valuable if they are directly related to an industry (hotels.com, biking.com, etc.), read well, and are easy to memorize. Domains that sell for thousands of dollars are rare. Unless you have a highly sought-after domain, you may not receive a large amount for it. It will help to be realistic in your pricing if you are intent on selling them. One of the best ways to get offers on your domain is to put up a simple "For Sale" message on your site. This will let any visitor know immediately that the domain is available for purchase and how to get in contact. There are several ways you can do this:  Many domain registrars provide simple free websites. Use the tools provided to create basic page that indicates the domain is for sale. You could include a link to the domain listing or include your contact information (beware of spam). You can add a page to one of your existing websites and redirect all of your for-sale domains to that sales page. Adjust your WHOIS information to show that your domain is for sale. You can change your registration information to reflect the fact that the domain is for sale. For example, you can add "Domain For Sale" to the end of the owner...


Determine your expression. Simplify the absolute value. Use a number line.

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

Simplifying  a numerical argument is an easy process: because absolute zero represents a distance between your number and 0, your answer will always be positive. Start by performing any operations within the absolute value bars to determine your expression. For example, say you are trying to simplify the absolute value of an expression, -6 + 3. Since the entire expression is within the absolute value bars, do the addition first. The problem is now to simplify the absolute value of -3. Once you have performed any operations inside the absolute value bars, you can simplify the absolute value. Whatever number you have as your argument, whether positive or negative, represents a distance from 0, so your answer is that number, and it is positive. In the example above, the simplified absolute value is 3. This is true because the distance between 0 and -3 is 3. Optionally, you can also note your answer using a number line. This step can help you visualize absolute values and check your work. For the example above, your number line should look like this.


Determine your facial shape. Identify a style that suits you. Pick a style that works with your hair's texture. Hire a stylist you can trust. Communicate your vision. Develop a rapport with your stylist.

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

Different types of hairstyles suit different types of people depending on their facial shape. To find your facial shape, choose the following option that applies most closely to you:  Square/Round/Oval Shaped Face – The width of your forehead, cheekbones and jaw are the same. Diamond Shaped Face – Your cheekbones are the widest part of your facial shape. Pear Shaped Face – Your jaw is the widest part of your face. Heart Shaped Face – Your forehead is the widest portion of your face and inverts inwards towards your chin. Once you know your facial shape, try looking through magazines to find hairstyles that flatter that shape. There are also many sites online that allow you to test out hairstyles using current pictures of your face, so you can preview how the cut or color will look in real life. Finally, you can try identifying a celebrity who has a similar facial shape to you and checking out haircuts that have looked good on them. Hair comes in many different textures: fine, medium, and coarse. It also comes in many different densities: sparse, medium and high. Your hair's texture and density will determine how the haircut falls on you, so make sure you consult with your stylist before committing to a cut. Having a good stylist is the most important variable in securing a good hairstyle. If your stylist is inexperienced or unwilling to execute on your vision, you will likely leave the salon disappointed. In order to find a quality stylist, seek out referrals from friends or look online at Yelp reviews. Once you've determined the kind of cut or color you want, it's important that you convey that information to your stylist so they can execute on your vision. Be clear with your stylist regarding the style you want, how much hair you're comfortable losing and what shade you're looking to achieve if you're coloring your hair. If possible, make a Pinterest board or have a picture on hand to better demonstrate the look you're going for. If you find a stylist who works well with your hair, use them as frequently as...


Determine your floor’s finish. Scrape away dried paint, gum, and other petrified materials. Clean a sound finish with a hardwood cleaner. Clean an unsound finish with mineral spirits. Soak deep, widespread pet stains with hydrogen peroxide overnight.

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

If you’ve just purchased an old house, ask the realtor or former homeowner about the hardwood floor’s history. If you’re unable to find information about your floor, you can test it to determine the finish.  Test finish soundness by applying a few drops of water onto a worn area. If the water beads for a few minutes, the finish is sound. If the water absorbs into the wood, the finish is unsound and water-based cleaning products must be avoided. Sound finishes are more likely to be modern, while unsound finishes are more likely to be older. Older hardwood floors are often spotted with caked, petrified materials, like dried paint, over-waxed deposits, or gum. If it was covered by linoleum or carpet, bits of the covering and adhesive might still be present. Hand scrape any of these materials with a plastic spatula or dull putty knife. If you have trouble, try placing a plastic bag filled with ice cubes on top of the gum or wax. Let it sit for a few minutes, then try scraping it off the floor. If your old flooring doesn't have any serious damage, it might just require a simple cleaning, buffing, and resealing. Remove all furniture and floor coverings, and take off your shoes or cover them with booties. Spray the floor with a small amount of hardwood floor cleaner. Wipe the floor down with a dry terry cloth mop or a terry cloth hand towel. It's best to clean a floor with an unsound finish with odorless mineral spirits. Dampen a terry cloth towel and wipe down the hardwood surface. Use a scouring pad or sanding screen to deal with tougher spots. It'll take some work to remove stains and odor if your hardwood flooring is in a room that was formerly used as a litter box. Pour hydrogen peroxide over the affected areas, cover them with rags soaked in hydrogen peroxide, then let them soak overnight. The next day, wipe up any excess cleaner, then screen or sand and refinish the floor.  If you're just dealing with one light stain, cover it with a rag soaked in hydrogen peroxide, but check it every 10 minutes. Wipe up...


Determine your focus. Create some rough designs. Teach yourself basic HTML.

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

There are a lot of different types of gaming websites out there. Knowing your focus before you start building the site will help during the design process. Websites often focus on one or two of the following areas when starting out. Once you build an audience and a staff, you can start expanding your focus.  News - The latest gaming headlines and stories. These drive the most traffic for gaming websites, but getting the scoop can be incredibly difficult. Reviews - Another very important source of traffic, and one of the most popular forms of game-related writing. The reviews market is fairly saturated, so you'll need to do a lot to stand out. Community - Building a community site is a great way to get involved in the gaming world. You won't be making the money that a news/reviews site would make, but you can gain a dedicated following. Fan Site - Similar to a community, a fan-site is typically dedicated to one game or franchise. Popular fan-sites may get access to the developer for interviews and assets. Wiki - Building a wiki about your favorite game can be rewarding and can lead to a great community. Tips/Strategies/Cheats - Collections of cheats and strategies are a popular search topic, but you'll be up against some very strong competition. Blog - A blog format allows you to simply post your thoughts and interests as they relate to gaming. A blog is a great way to practice your writing skills and build a dedicated following. What sets you apart from the thousands of other gaming sites? Before you get into the website creation process, it will help to have the basic layout and visual style worked out. Creating these sketches can range from drawing them on a napkin to creating mockups in Photoshop. Create a flowchart to show how the basic navigation of your site will work. Even if you're not going to be building the website yourself, you're still going to need some basic HTML so that you can update the site with your content. You can learn the basics in an afternoon, and with a little practice it will...


Determine your frost date to decide when to plant your seeds. Choose plants that will thrive inside your home. Plan when to plant your seeds based on their specific germinating times. Wash all materials thoroughly with soap and water before use. Use wide, flat containers so your seeds have adequate room to grow. Use nutrient-rich soil so your plants can grow strong and healthy.

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

The date is based off of your climate zone. Start planting your seeds indoors a few weeks before your frost date. That way your seeds will be ready to move outside when the weather is warm enough. You can use an online frost date calculator, like the Farmers' Almanac, to help you find out your frost date. Some flowers and vegetables are hard to germinate at home, as they require particular growing conditions. Go with versatile, easy-to-grow seeds to ensure your plants will thrive in your environment.  If you are growing vegetables, try seeds like basil, broccoli, cabbage, carrots, cauliflower, lettuce, peppers, and tomatoes. If you are growing flowers, try annuals like alyssum, cosmos, marigolds, and zinnias. Some seeds will germinate quickly, in 2-4 weeks, while other seeds will need 8-14 weeks. Look up how many weeks your seeds will need to sprout, either online or on your seed package. Then, you can  start your seeds in reference your frost date, so your seeds have adequate time to grow. You can look online for seed-starting charts or use your seed container to figure out how long each plant type takes to grow. Seeds are sensitive, so be sure to wash any tool or material in soapy water to avoid contamination. This ensures your seeds will grow healthy. Make sure you wash your containers, any garden tools, and your hands before you handle your seeds. You can plant your seeds in either seed-growing flats or your own recycled containers. Aim for a container 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) deep so your seeds have room for their roots to grow. Plant 1 seed per section if using seed flats, or use 1 container per seed if using individual containers.  You can use nearly any recycled container, like egg cartons, margarine tubs, or yogurt cups. You can also use small Styrofoam or plastic cups. If using your own container, poke a few drainage holes at the bottom of each before you plant the seeds. If your seedling's roots don't have enough room, they will not grow to the best of their ability. You can purchase specific...


Determine your general hair type. Use products that work with your natural hair type. Ask your hairdresser for recommendations.

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

Hair type is based on many factors including curl pattern, texture, hair porosity, hair density, hair width, and hair length. These factors all create your unique hair type and dictate what products and hair care procedures would work best for you.  If you know your hair type (straight, curly, dry, thin, color treated, etc.), finding specific hair products at the store should be easy. Use the products that correlate with the type of hair you have. Nearly every hair care brand has multiple versions of their product to fit customers' different hair needs. It is best to determine your hair type when your hair is in it's most natural state. If you don't know your hair type, or your hair spans over a few different types, you can always ask your hairdresser for some advice the next time you get your hair cut or treated. If you have dyed hair, look for products specifically made for color treated hair. These specialized products usually have moisturizing benefits since hair dyes contain harsh chemicals that dry out hair. These products will also help maintain color and luster of treated hair. You want to use products made for the kind of hair that you have, so you can easily control and style your hair in a way that works best with your hair type. For example, if you have oily hair, you're going to want to avoid shampoos that add moisture, and instead look for products that help with balancing or clarifying.   Curly or coarse hair should look for products that reduce frizz, and depending on how your want to style your hair, look for products that are curl defining or curl softening.  Flat or thin hair should look for products that add volume but are also gentle for washing. Since oil shows more easily on people with thin hair, they might have to wash their hair more frequently.  Colored or treated hair should try to use products specifically made for color treated hair for two reasons: first, these products have amino acids and conditioners that help fortify the already damaged hair. Second, these specific products...


Determine your goal(s) for adding essential oils. Choose essential oils for aromatherapy. Choose essential oils for medicinal purposes. Use caution. Add your chosen oils to your sanitizer.

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

Essential oils can be added to your sanitizer for the fragrance alone, but the benefits of essential oils extend well beyond simply providing a pleasant scent. The oils have been used for thousands of years by cultures all over the world to provide healing effects for mental, physical, and emotional ailments.  Inhalation of the different scents offers a wide range of psychological and physical benefits known as aromatherapy.  Essential oils can also be used medicinally by way of both scent and physical application to provide additional health, hygiene, and beauty advantages. The use of essential oils in your hand sanitizer will not only deliver a terrific smell, but they can also address specific physical and mental health issues. Inhaling the scent of a particular essential oil can stimulate your brain to trigger a variety of mental and emotional reactions. By adding them to your hand sanitizer, you can have a therapeutic experience while also killing pesky germs. You can choose one oil or combine oils to create multi-layered effects.

Determine your goal. Acknowledge signs of your friend's sexuality. Talk to a confidante. Explore her comfort level with LGBTQ topics. Come out to your friend Mention your feelings briefly. Leave the ball in her court.

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

If you are a woman and you have a crush on your female best friend, it's natural to wonder if you have a chance. Before you start with the leading questions, though, ask yourself what your goal is:  Attraction often gets in the way of friendship, and it won't go away if you find out your friend is straight. Sometimes bringing it into the open is what you need to do, regardless of how your friend feels. On the other hand, if the feelings are not mutual (and they usually aren't), the friendship could end. If this would devastate you, and you don't have a support network to help you out (especially if you are in the closet), it might not be a good idea to continue. Spend at least a couple weeks apart from your friend instead to try and cool down and pick up the friendship at a less intense level. If you are unsure of your sexuality, or you are straight but have a crush on your friend, focus on yourself instead of her. Look for LGBT resources online or at an LGBT community center to help you figure out your identity. Wishful thinking can always cloud your judgement when romance is involved. If your friend has dated men in the past or told you about her crush on a guy, it's very likely that she's straight.  There are no obvious signals that mean someone is a lesbian, especially if she is in the closet. Trying to analyze your friend this way is nearly impossible, especially when attraction is clouding your judgement. If your friend is attracted to you, she may initiate prolonged physical contact (long hugs, for example) or ask to see you constantly. Unfortunately, it is difficult to tell this apart from close female friendships, especially if she is responding to your own desire for close contact. If at all possible, talk to a trusted friend about the situation (preferably someone you can come out to or have already). He or she will have a less biased perspective on whether your friend is interested in you, and can talk you through your feelings. Continue only if you have decided that this is important enough to...


Determine your hair texture. Consider your hair length. Decide which style of messy hair you want. Gather your tools.

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

Depending on the texture of your hair, you may need to add some product to make sure your messy hair maintains the look you want all day long. It is important to have the proper tools of the trade before you get started.  If your hair is thick, coarse, or curly, you are in luck. This look is going to be easy for you. All you will need is a light styling product to keep the frizz in control. You will not need any kind of heat styling (like a curling iron or blow dryer). If your hair is wavy, this look will be pretty easy for you. A little texture cream should be all you need. If your hair is fine or straight, do not worry. With the right products, you can add texture to your hair that will make sure the messy look stays put. Get some styling products that add texture (like sea salt, volumizer, or texturizing pomade). You will probably need to use those with some blow-drying and curling. You may have short hair, medium length hair, or long hair. The length of your hair affects the amount of product you use, how long it takes to style your locks, and which messy look you want.  Short and medium length hair look best with both tousled messy hair and curly messy hair. Tousled messy hair is done with your fingers. If you are going for the curly messy hair and you have short hair, be sure to use a smaller barrel size of curling iron.  Long hair can also do both types of messy hair but generally looks better with curly messy hair. You will use a larger barrel curling iron because you want loose curls that you can tousle with your fingers. There are a few ways you can achieve the messy hair effect depending on the look you are going for and the texture of your hair. You can go for tousled messy hair, curly messy hair, or combine them.  If your hair is wavy or curly you can achieve any of the messy effects without much extra effort.  If your hair is fine, curling the hair first will help maintain the messy hair effect longer. Just tousling the hair with your fingers will not be enough, even with product in your hair....


Determine your hair type. Choose shampoo and conditioner for your hair type. Apply shampoo to your scalp, not along the length of the hair. Massage your scalp. Shampoo only as often as you need to. Follow shampoo with conditioner.

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

This may depend on your hair's thickness, chemical processes you've used, and/or your scalp condition.  Fine hair is characterized by a small diameter of the individual hairs. This hair tends to fall flat and may be more difficult to style. It also may be more susceptible to damage from styling and chemical processes. Thin hair is hair that has a lower density per square inch. While these hairs may or may not be fine, thin hair has many of the styling issues that fine hair has.  Thick hair, by contrast, has a higher density per square inch. No matter whether it's straight, wavy, or curly, thick hair tends to be drier than fine hair and requires daily moisturization.  There is a wide range of types of curly hair, from tight kinks to loose waves. The important thing to know about curly hair when choosing products is that it tends to be drier than straight hair. Color-treated hair has been dyed using chemical processes. Dyes strip the protective outer layer of lipids from hair, leaving it vulnerable to damage. Products designed for this kind of hair are meant to protect it and keep heat and water from leaching your color.  Dry hair is usually the result of over-processing, be it coloring, heat-styling, or overuse of products containing alcohol. It is fragile, so tends to break easily. Oily hair usually refers to oily scalp. Hair may be difficult to clean, feel greasy, or have an unpleasant smell. Dandruff also results from an oily scalp. This can be due to a number of factors, including hormones, vitamin deficiencies, and heredity. Ironically, it could also be that your scalp was dry–and the body, in compensation, is now overproducing oil. Hair types include normal, fine, dry, oily, color-treated, and dandruff.  Fine and thin hair may benefit from products labeled "volumizing," which boosts body.  For thick and/or curly hair, avoid products with sulfates in them (ammonium laureth sulfate, ammonium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate, sodium lauryl sulfate). These are detergents that can strip curly hair of...


Determine your hardiness zone. Locate an area with fertile and well-drained soil. Select an area that needs “ground cover. Look for a wall. Locate a container.

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

Hardiness zones are categories (based on temperature and location) that determine which plants while grow well in which areas. English ivy is unlikely to thrive outside of hardiness zones 4 to 9. You can determine your hardiness zone by looking in a farmer’s almanac or visiting the USDA website. English ivy likes fertile and well-drained soil. Be sure that the area where you intend to place the plant can accommodate this, or consider using a container (where you can control the planting medium). ” English ivy is notorious for its ability to spread quickly. Check its status in your area before planting. Alternatively, you may want your English ivy to climb up a wall, tree, trellis, or other structure. If you live in a brick house, you may even want the ivy to grow and spread over your home. Select a location like this, and plan to plant your ivy nearby. English ivy can spread so quickly that in some places it is considered an invasive species. As such, you may want to start your English ivy in a container. Any planting container with a drainage hole will work fine. Fill this container with planting medium.
