Find out if your school has a School Lunch Advisory Council. Get to know your school’s nutrition staff. Talk to your principal about nutritional guidelines for school events. Encourage your friends to make healthy choices.

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

If you’re passionate about making nutritious food options available to yourself and your classmates, getting involved in a SLAC is a great option. Talk to your teachers or the school administration about whether your school has a SLAC and, if so, ask them how you can join. Even if your school doesn’t have a council dedicated to nutrition, you may be able to get involved by joining a more general student advisory group or a school nutrition club. Talk to your school’s administration about setting up a meeting with the cafeteria manager or other members of the nutrition staff. During the meeting, you can ask questions or bring up any concerns you have about the school menu. You can also ask them about ways you can get involved in promoting better nutrition at school. Your cafeteria manager can also help connect you with the nutrition director who is responsible for menu planning for your entire school district. While lunches and snacks offered in school cafeterias and vending machines are carefully regulated in many areas, food options for school events and fundraisers are not always subject to the same rules. Ask your principal about setting rules about what kinds of foods and snacks are allowed at after-school events, classroom parties, and fundraisers. For example, you might work together to establish a rule that soda cannot be served at school events. As a student, you can use the power of peer pressure for good! Set a good example for your friends and classmates by choosing good lunch and snack options and encouraging them to do the same. Don’t tease or put down your friends for choosing less healthy options. Instead, focus on the positive. For example, you might say, “Hey, have you tried the salad bar? It’s actually really good!”


Find out if your state has a bottle bill. Locate a bottle return center near you. Save the cans and bottles you use in your house. Look for cans and bottles around you neighborhood. Sort your cans and bottles.

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

Some states have a bottle bill, which means they reimburse 5-10 cents for every empty can or bottle you return.Click here to see if your state has a bottle bill. If your state has a bottle bill, then there should be a bottle return center somewhere near you. Usually bottle return centers have large boxes that look like vending machines where you put your bottles and cans. You'll then receive a ticket that you can redeem for cash. In some areas, supermarkets serve as bottle return centers. Do a quick internet search to find the nearest bottle return center to you. Five cents may not sound like much, but this amount adds up over time. Think about how many cans and bottles your household uses in a week or a month. Get a large bag or bin and put all of your empty cans and bottles in here. Then, when your container is nearly full, visit the nearest bottle return center. Letting the cans accumulate like this will give you a nice return on your recycling efforts. You don't have to limit yourself to returning the bottles you use in your own house. Your neighborhood is probably full of cans and bottles you could recycle; you just have to find them. Remember that whenever you pick up bottles and cans, you should wear a thick pair of gloves. You don't want to risk cutting yourself and getting an infection.  Visit local parks and playgrounds. Kids and parents probably unknowingly leave a lot of recyclable items in these places. Take a bag and pick them up to bring to a bottle return center. See if any local businesses will give you their cans. Restaurants and stores often recycle cans themselves. Sometimes, however, the owners don't want to go through the trouble, and you could offer to take the cans off their hands. This will give you a steady stream of bottles to redeem. See if neighbors will give you their cans. Again, your neighbors may not want to go through the trouble of recycling their own cans. Offer to take them and you could end up with a nice profit. Bottle return centers usually have different machines for...


Find out if you’re eligible for government farm loan program. Meet with a rural property lender if you need financing. Make a fair offer on the property you wish you purchase. Negotiate the price and terms of the contract. Invest in title and flood insurance, if applicable. Finalize the deal to take ownership of the property.

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

The FSA provides farm loans to family-sized farms throughout the United States. There are a variety of loans available, such as for micro farms, young farmers, Native American tribes, new farmers, emergencies, or minority and women farmers. To find out more information and to apply for one of these loan programs, visit https://www.fsa.usda.gov/programs-and-services/farm-loan-programs/. If you don’t qualify for a government loan, you can get a private loan. Though big-city banks can assist you with plenty of transactions, it’s best to speak with a rural property lender when buying farmland. They will be familiar with the specific intricacies regarding loans for farmland. Once your money or funding is secure, you can put in an offer on the property you wish to buy. It’s best to start with a low—but fair—offer, such as 10% below the highest amount you’d be willing to pay, to leave room for negotiation. Your realtor can help advise you further and make the offer to the buyers. The buyer may accept your offer or ask for more money. Your realtor can work with both of you until an agreement is made. Then, a contract will be drawn up and a lawyer and/or realtor can help explain the terms of the contract to you, if necessary. Now is the time to make amendments or ask for upgrades! Once you sign the contract, you’ll need to put down earnest money until the deal is closed. To protect your investment, you may want to purchase both title and flood insurance. Title insurance guarantees your right to the property at the closing price and will also let you know if the area has been used for hazardous waste dumping. If the property is in a flood zone, you’ll be required to purchase flood insurance before closing on the property to protect yourself from losses due to flooding. Once both parties are happy with the contract, you can close on the property. Usually, you’ll need to meet the realtor and seller at the title company to close. The deed will be transferred to your name, and any keys to the gates or buildings will be...


Find out information about your destination, including the weather conditions, typical local standards of dress, and what items can be purchased at a reasonable cost at your destination. Choose clothing in basic colours. Work out how many different outfits can be made using the chosen clothes. Choose three pairs of shoes. Consider offloading clothing. Keep accessories to a minimum.

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

Follow a unified colour scheme.  For example, choose bottoms in black or khaki, with a matching sweater or jacket if appropriate. This will allow you to take a smaller number of clothes.     Choose tops that will match all bottoms. As tops are generally lighter than pants, you will be able to pack a few more without adding extra weight.     Generally, three bottoms (black or khaki cotton pants, dress pants, and jeans) should be sufficient, with three long sleeved shirts, one to two sweaters, a jacket, and a few t-shirts to layer under clothing.    You may surprise yourself considerably! One for walking, one for business/formal wear and one for the weather you'll be encountering.  Consider hiring or buying boots if you encounter snow or wet environments. These can be too heavy to cart around on a long trip. All sports boots or shoes should be hired.     Flip flops cost nothing. Buy them when you're in the country or area rather than dragging them along with you. Then leave them behind when you're done.    If you're doing a round-the-world trip, you are likely to encounter all sorts of weather, including cold, wet, hot and dry. This makes carrying clothing a bit of a logistical nightmare. What can make it easier is to either send home clothing mid-way, especially after cold country visits, or decide to give it away to people before leaving the country. Choose clothing you don't mind giving up if you're going to give it away. Perhaps select a wardrobe of items you're never going to wear again, but are close to being donated anyway. Or, do a deliberate shop at the thrift store to purchase gear only for the trip and to be given away as you go. You won't be so invested in it that way but do be sure to choose stuff that looks fabulous on you, or you'll regret taking it with you.    Don't travel with valuable jewelry unless you want to advertise the theft opportunity. Leave that stuff at home. Take only what is useful, such as a watch, a money holder, a scarf, a hat, etc. Consider buying accessories as light, easily...


Find out the bed size before you buy. Take a good look at yourself. Get up on time. Know what clothes to bring. Clear storage space. Decorate your space. Buy more luggage, if necessary.

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

Most dorm rooms are equipped with extra-long twin beds, so when you buy comforters and sheets, you should make sure that the size of the bedding you buy will match the size of the bed you will have.  You will need pillows and pillowcases, bed sheets, a blanket, and a quilt or comforter. Also consider buying a mattress pad to make your bed more comfortable. Many dorm rooms are equipped with some form of lighting and mirrors, but it usually will not hurt to buy a few of these yourself.  If your dorm does not come with one, buy a full-length mirror. Consider buying a desk lamp and floor lamp to supplement the overhead lighting installed in the room. An alarm clock is an absolute must, unless you have an alarm on your cell phone that you rely on. Even if you do use your cell phone alarm, having a backup alarm clock can still be a good idea. You should also buy supplies that can help you fall asleep faster so that you can wake up well-rested. These may include earplugs and an eye mask. Odds are, you can just bring the same clothes you wore throughout your high school years. There might be a few instances in which you will want or need to buy new clothes.  Prepare for bad weather. Have a raincoat, rain boots, umbrella, and snow boots, as needed. If the climate you are moving to differs from the climate back home, buy clothes that are more suited toward the climate you'll be heading to. Some items you need to bring with you will not stay out once you get to campus, so you should buy a few storage bins to help you store any excess materials until you need them. Also consider buying temporary racks and shelving to store shoes, books, and other belongings that you need to access easily. While this is not a necessity, you should consider buying things to decorate your walls and door. This is the room you will be living in for the majority of the year, after all, so you'll want it to be comfortable for you. Options worth considering include:  Bulletin board Posters Dry-erase message board and pens for your door If you...


Find out the dress code. Choose a classic look. Coordinate with friends. Create the perfect outfit. Wear comfy shoes.

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

Don't wait until the night of the party to figure out what you are going to wear. It is helpful to plan at least a few days in advance to prevent rushing around to find an outfit. If you can, ask the host of the party or a friend what the dress code is like so you know if you need to dress formal or casual. Here are some key pieces of your outfit to plan.  If it's casual, consider jeans and a nice shirt. If it's formal, wear a fancier button up shirt or blouse, dress, slacks, or a tie. If you're outside on a warm day, dress in lighter fabric so you don't get too hot. If you can't figure out exactly what the dress code is because you don't know the host or you don't want to ask your date, there are looks you can find that are timeless and work for almost any occasion.  Girls can always depend on the little black dress. Find a simple black dress that is knee length. You can add a necklace and heels to dress up the look or wear flats to keep it casual. The "go to" for guys can be a button up collar shirt with nice dress slacks. Depending on the season, be sure to dress appropriately to the temperature outside. If you have friends or a date who are also attending the party, you can plan together so that you look good as a group, but don't match too much by wearing the same outfits. If going with a date, try matching the color of his tie to the color of her dress. Think about the types of clothes that are most flattering on you. Everyone has a unique body type and finding the clothes that best suit you will help you look even more amazing.  Be sure to wear clothes that fit well and aren't too tight so that you don't have to tamper with them all night. Pick something that makes you feel confident. Don't choose anything that has a stain or tear in the fabric. Black is flattering on every body type, but don't be afraid to wear color! If you have a favorite pair of shoes but they hurt your feet, leave them at home. Whether you decide on heels, sneakers, or flats, make sure your feet are comfortable, especially if it...


Find out the guidelines for your speech. Get to know your topic. Get to know your audience beforehand. Write a speech that suits you. Have a well-prepared speech.

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

We tend to fear things that are out of our control. Though you cannot control every aspect of your presentation, you can reduce speech anxiety by controlling the situation as much as possible. If you are asked to give a speech, find out the expectations of the organizer.  For example, are you giving a speech on a particular topic, or do you get to choose your topic? How long is the speech supposed to last? How long do you have to prepare the speech? Knowing these elements from the very beginning will help reduce your anxiety. The more you know your topic, the less nervous you will feel when you talk about it in front of others.  Choose something about which you are passionate to address in your speech. If you do not get to choose the topic, at least try to find an angle that interests you and which you know something about. Research more than you think you should. Not everything you learn will end up in your speech, but it builds your confidence in the subject matter. Be sure to know who your audience is. This is key because you will tailor your speech to this audience. For example, you will give a different speech to experts than the speech you’d give to novices. Use language in your speech that fits your speaking style. Try not to adopt a way of speaking that isn’t natural or comfortable, as your discomfort in the style of the speech will likely come across in your delivery. The more prepared you are, the less anxiety you will feel. Have the entire speech written out beforehand. Find appropriate illustrations and examples for your audience. Create effective and professional-looking presentation aids to accompany your speech. Have a back-up plan. Consider what you will do if your presentation aids do not work due to equipment malfunction or power outage. For example, print out a copy of your slides to refer to should your slide show not work. Decide how you will fill the time if your video does not work.


Find out the price of eggs locally. Find out how eggs are distributed in your area. Collect eggs daily. Sell quickly.

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

What you are offering is free-range at a minimum, so compare like with like. If you're going one step further and raising the chickens in an organic garden solely on organic food to create organic eggs, this will put the price up, but you need to make all these things clear and verify as required by any by-laws.  Make your price cheaper than that of the shops. About $2.00 - $2.50 for a dozen is good (this will vary on your location in the world). It may seem cheap, but if you want to make business, you have to make it worth it for your customers. To price, don't forget to include feed cost or else you end up making a loss. Can you make use of the same distribution network or do you need to use other means? If the latter, what sort of ways do you intend to sell? It might be door-to-door, from your gate, through the internet, etc. Again, know the local laws with respect to the sales process.  Try bakeries, local stores, cooperatives, supermarkets that like stocking local produce, etc. To advertise, simply tell your neighbors about your chickens. They will probably be quite willing to buy eggs from you. If all else fails, you can sell your eggs to your local butcher. Almost all butchers will sell eggs from locals. You should collect the eggs once a day and twice during summer or when it's hot outside, this is to be sure you get the eggs fresh. Store the eggs properly, they can be stored without refrigeration for up to 4 to 5 days, provided it's not hot. The sooner the eggs are out, the better and the fresher they are for the customer.


Find out the time and format of your exam. Find out what you will be tested on. Make time in your schedule to study. Find a good place to study.

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

The first thing to do is get all the information you can about the exam so that you can best prepare. Make sure you know when it is, so you know how long you’ve got, and you can give yourself time to plan your studies. If possible, find out if the exam is based on essay questions, multiple choice questions, a mixture, or something else. It’s very helpful to know if you will have to write essay responses in the exam so that you can practice this in your study. Your teacher isn’t going to tell you what questions are going to come up, but be sure you know what you’ll be tested on more generally. Once you know this you can make sure that you have all the notes, maps, and information that were included in your lessons and could come up in the exam. If need be, compare notes with another student to make sure you haven’t missed anything out. Before you start it’s helpful to think ahead and set aside time for studying. Clear regular spots in your diary which you can use as time to prepare for your exam. You might find it helpful to study at the same time every evening if you like a very strict routine, but a bit of variety can be useful to break it up so try to keep some flexibility. You might find it best to study straight after school while you are still in a working frame of mind, so you can switch off later. It’s good to have a quiet, secluded spot to avoid being distracted or interrupted when you are studying. This could be your bedroom or the library, or somewhere else. It’s a good idea to study somewhere that you have put aside strictly for studying and isn’t somewhere you use for other things like watching TV or eating. Make sure it is a comfortable place to sit, and ideally somewhere you can leave your studying materials when you’re not working.


Find out what code your site is written in. Research other redirect code. Test the redirect.

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

For each programming language, the appropriate redirect code may be slightly different. If you're unsure of the answer to this question, contact your web host for more information. There are different coded commands for each language and several options to explore within each language. A quick internet search is likely to yield the appropriate code for your site. For instance it's easy to search for and find code for PHP, ASP, ColdFusion and Javascript redirects online. After finding the correct code for your site, implementation will be quite similar to the other coding methods outlined. Afterwards always make sure to test the redirect by visiting your (old) URL to see if things work as planned.


Find out what expectations the parents have. Learn about the denomination of the child's parents. Schedule your time accordingly. Build your relationship with the family.

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

The role of a godparent can vary widely depending on the family. For some people, it might entail attending a child’s baptism and confirmation, while other people might expect continual spiritual guidance. Make sure you are clear on exactly what you are agreeing to so that you avoid confusion later down the road.  Some people even choose secular godparents to help their child’s moral development. If this is the case, make sure you understand the moral values of the parents and find out what other expectations they have.  Traditionally, godparents were responsible to raise the child should anything happen to the parents. This is often an expectation and an important part of this role. The family is likely entrusting their child to you should anything happen to them. It is important to clarify if this is expected ahead of time and to be ready for that responsibility. Because of this aspect of the role, it is not something to accept lightly. Take time to consider whether you are ready and willing to potentially raise a child. Not all Christian churches are the same or even expect the same from a godparent. Find out what their specific denomination (or non-denomination) expects and make sure you are comfortable with their beliefs. Keep in mind that certain denominations require you to be a member in order to be a godparent. For example, Catholics expect a godparent to be a practicing Catholic. Lutherans also have this expectation. The Church of England, on the other hand, allows for godparents of other denominations. Make sure you meet the church’s requirements. Being a godparent can be a significant time commitment. To prepare, set aside some time in your schedule to devote to your new role and make note of any important dates such as the child’s birthday and baptism. Planning ahead will ensure you have enough time to spend on your godchild. If you aren’t sure how much time to set aside, try starting with two hours per week. This will allow you sufficient time to connect with your godchild as well as preparing...


Find out what he is interested in through mutual friends or social media. Attend social gatherings and events where he will be present. Introduce yourself and start a conversation. Open up about your interests to see if there is something you share.

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

If you don’t already know him, it’s a good idea to find out a little bit more before you approach him. If you have friends in common, you could ask them what kinds of things he is interested in. If you have access to his social media profiles, check out what kinds of content he posts. Is he interested in sports, comedy, cooking, reading, video games, board games, dogs, or music? Or maybe there is something entirely different he likes that you never would have expected. Keep your eyes and ears open to learn more. It can be hard to try and initiate a friendship out of the blue, so using group activities, social events, and similar things is a great way to get to know him a little better. If you’re in school, maybe there are some sporting events you know he’ll be at that you could attend. Or if you have a mutual friend, perhaps you could catch an invite to the next group hang at the bowling alley or arcade.  The main goal here is to get some face time with this guy. The more you’re around him, the more chances you’ll have to talk to him. The event itself could even be a conversation starter for you. You could ask how he’s enjoying himself, how he knows a particular mutual friend, or if he does that type of thing often. This may be super intimidating, but you can do it! If you don’t already know each other, you definitely want to tell him your name when you first go up to him. Smile, be friendly, say “Hi, my name is Robin,” and ask him a question or tell him why you’re approaching him. For example, you could say, “I heard my friend Ryan say that you’re really into this band. Have you ever seen them play live?” Even if you feel nervous, try and overcome that feeling. Once the conversation is going, you’ll feel so much better! Some great conversation starters are:  What did you think of [music artist’s] latest album? What do you think about the [sports team’s] chances this year? How do you know [mutual friend]? Is this your first time coming to an event like this? Did you see the most recent [blockbuster film]?...


Find out what kind of herpes your partner has. Get yourself tested for herpes. Remember that herpes isn't dangerous. Accept that herpes doesn't go away.

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

Ask the girl you are dating if her herpes is HSV-1 (which most often manifests as oral herpes) or HSV-2 (which most often manifests as genital herpes). Knowing which type of herpes virus she has will help you determine what behaviors can lower your risk of disease transmission.  HSV-1, more commonly known as "cold sores" or "fever blisters," tend to appear around the lips. They are small and contain fluid, and may ooze and crust. Cold sores are spread by kissing and oral sex, but sharing things like utensils and towels can also put you at risk.  You are most likely to contract HSV-1 around your mouth. If you are infected in this area,the condition is considered chronic. HSV-1 can also spread to the genitals, but tends to be very mild and is unlikely to come back after the first outbreak.  HSV-2, or genital herpes, is almost exclusively spread by genital contact. It's very hard to contract this from towels or shared utensils. HSV-2 appears as red or white bumps that may open, ooze, and form ulcers before scabbing and healing. HSV-2 can be spread to any location in the body, but is most likely to appear on the genitals. Recurrence of HSV-2 is common. If you are with a partner who has herpes, it is important to know if you are a carrier of the virus yourself. Getting tested is critical especially because many people who have herpes do not know they have it. You might have a strain of herpes but no symptoms, meaning that you do not have to worry about getting infected with that strain.  If you and the girl you are dating have the same strain of herpes, you can't "re-infect" one another because you are both carriers. If you have different strains of herpes, you can transmit that infection. For instance, if she has HSV-2 and you have HSV-1, it's possible for either of you to get infected with the other strain. A simple blood test can tell you whether you are a carrier of either herpes virus. You can get this test at a Planned Parenthood center, other health clinics, or private health care providers (such as your...


Find out what makes him feel loved. Get physical. Go on dates.

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

Everyone shows and receives love differently. Some people place more importance on verbal affirmations and quality time while others want their partner to shower them gifts, physical affection, or small favors. Gauge what kinds things he likes by observing what he asks of you. It may also help to simply ask him if you’re not sure. Make an effort to act accordingly.  For example, some men feel loved when you spend time doing activities together like playing basketball or going to a movie. Others feel most loved when you have deep conversations or show affection with hugs and kisses. If you’re not sure, ask. Try saying, “Do you want to play basketball or should we just hang here and talk?” Your boyfriend may be the type that likes to receive gifts. Find small ways to show that you are thinking of him. Try buying him a nice shirt or picking up his favorite candy from the store. Sex is often an important part of a romantic relationship. Men are especially likely to feel loved when the sexual connection is genuine and consistent. Make time to cultivate passionate moments in the bedroom.  Think of all the things that attract you to him and fantasize about him. Express your desires when you are alone together.  Men usually want to please their significant others in bed. Let him know when you like something that he does between the sheets. Try starting off with things like, “I love it when you…” Avoid criticism. Your boyfriend may feel hurt by any negative comments about his sexual performance. Instead, tell him what he is doing right. Keep your relationship thriving by going out to do something that you both enjoy. Explore your common interests as pair. Doing things outside of your daily routine will keep your relationship alive and evolving. Go out for a nice dinner, see a movie, or check out a new museum. Keep it romantic. Go the extra mile to make a reservation at his favorite restaurant, dress nicely, or hold his hand. These kinds of small gestures are thoughtful and affectionate ways to show that you want him...


Find out what medical concerns might arise when traveling in Africa. Pack some First Aid and toiletry supplies. Consider cleaning your teeth in pure alcohol or Coke if you cannot be sure that water is clean.

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

Malaria, dengue fever, and a host of other diseases are of concern. Be sure to know the proper precautions and to take the right medication, including adequate amounts of medication that you take regularly. Also take scripts with you in case you are questioned for holding medication. Some suggestions include:  toothpaste soap shampoo baby wipes anti-malaria tablets painkillers antihistamine cream bandages sun lotion Iodine tablets


Find out what shark protection measures are already in place in your country. Join an organization that cares about the future of sharks. Hold an information awareness event at your school, university, college, or community center.

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

Are they adequate measures or not? Are there some species still not protected? Does your country ban the importation of shark fins or other products? What are the assumptions about sharks held by the politicians and bureaucrats in your country? Once you find out, you can then write letters of concern along with suggestions for how your country could be better protecting sharks.  For example, The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora has pushed to protect a variety of species of sharks that are targeted for their fins. These include all hammerhead sharks, the oceanic whitetip shark, and the porbeagle shark. These protections have led to more clampdowns on illegal shark fin shipping and trade.  One person you can write to is the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Request that international action be taken to ban shark finning and the trade in shark fins. There are numerous organizations that are raising awareness and actively putting programs into place to help keep sharks thriving in ocean waters. For example, one such organization, The Sea Shepherd, has turned its attention to sharks, as well as dolphins, in light of the dire threat facing sharks. Sea Shepherds is confiscating illegally taken fins, pulling in long-lines and freeing caught sharks and defending against poachers, among other actions.  Other organizations that are raising awareness and acting on shark protection include Protect the Sharks Foundation, The Humane Society, Oceana.org, Wildaid.org, The Dorsal Fin, Saving Sharks.com, and more. Many local environmental groups you might be a part of could have an interest in sharks too. If not, your query might spark their interest! You can become involved in these groups in a variety of ways. You could simply give them money so that they can continue their work. You could also become an active member, working on projects with the organization that actively help to eliminate the killing of sharks. Whatever level of involvement you are comfortable with you...

Find out what the date entails. Go shopping. Try on a few different options. Wear what you feel the most comfortable in. Choose an outfit that reflects who you are. Make sure your outfit is clean and ready to wear. Decide on a hairstyle and practice it. Do some pre-date grooming.

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

Whether it's you or your crush planning the first date – or perhaps, a mutual effort – figure out what the date will entail before you plan your wardrobe. Dressing for your date will be easier once you know what's in store for the actual date.  For a classic dinner and a movie date, you'll know to dress in nicer, fancier clothes. Don't forget to discuss exactly where dinner will be, so that you can gauge how dressy you need to be. For a hiking date, casual jeans and a t-shirt or gym clothes are perfectly acceptable first date wear! There's nothing wrong with doing a little shopping for a first date, especially if you have a fun activity planned and need a few new items to prepare. Although it's not necessary to go shopping, wearing something new will show your date that you've made extra effort. Before deciding on exactly what to wear, try on a few different options. What you've envisioned as the perfect clothing combination in your head might look different once you've got it on. Remember to dress up according to the occasion.  Don't be afraid to ask a trusted friend or family member for an honest opinion. It would be a good idea to keep a few outfit ideas in mind for that special day, just in case something breaks or the weather takes a sudden turn for the worse. First dates can be nerve-wracking enough as it is. You don't want to add to that stress by wearing something that makes you uncomfortable. You will be happier and most at ease if you wear clothes you like and feel confident in.  If you don't feel comfortable wearing tight, low-cut, or see-through clothing, then don't wear that! You should also take movement into consideration. If you're going ballroom dancing or horseback riding, be sure to wear something that you can move comfortably in. Everyone wants to look their best for the first date, but unless you're planning to attend a Halloween party together, don't dress up as someone else. Wear an outfit that reflects your own personal style and flare.  Not only will you feel more relaxed, but it will...


Find out what they like and talk about it. Think of a few good stories you can tell. Change the topic if they look bored. Be a good listener. Ask them open-ended questions. Be expressive when you talk.

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

The best way to make yourself seem interesting is to take an interest in your crush’s interests. Talk to their friends to see what they like, or just ask your crush straight-up what they like to do. Then, talk about it!  If you know your crush is a huge basketball fan, watch the game. Then, ask them what they thought about it when you see them. It’s an interesting but easy conversation starter! If you’re trying to figure out your crush’s interests, you could ask, “What’s your favorite thing to do on the weekends?” or “What’s your favorite TV show?” Have a few go-to funny stories that you can whip out when chatting with your crush. Pick stories that your crush can relate to. If your crush is a surfer and you have a story about your hilarious first attempt at surfing, tell them. If your crush is yawning, looking away, or not asking any questions, they may be bored with your conversation topic. Don’t take this personally--everyone has different interests. Switch to a new topic, or ask them a personal question to change gears. Imagine you’re talking about your love of stamp collecting, and your crush is looking a little distracted.

Show your crush you’re listening by nodding, saying things like “yes” or “mmhmm,” and repeating back what they tell you in your own words. Asking good questions can make for a more interesting conversation, which makes you seem more interesting, too. Ask your crush open-ended questions, which are questions that can’t be answered with yes or no.  If you and your crush are talking about summer vacation, you could ask a fun question like, “What’s your craziest summer break story?” Ask follow-up questions, too. If your crush launches into a story about meeting their favorite celebrity, you could...


Find out what your credit score is. Build your credit history. Understand the risks. Set your budget.

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

Your credit score is a number from 350 to 850 that represents your creditworthiness.  You can check your credit score by requesting a free copy of your score from one of the three major credit reporting agencies: Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion.   Since this is your first credit card, you may not have much of a credit history or you may not have any credit history at all. If you have a higher credit score, you may be eligible for better offers with lower interest rates and higher credit limits. Credit cards are a great way to build credit history, but if you don’t have any credit history, it is more difficult to be approved for a credit card. There are a few different ways to build credit that can make it easier to be approved for your first card.  Apply for a secured credit card. These cards require a cash deposit and people with no or little credit history can apply and be approved more easily. Use a co-signer on your credit card application. A co-signer essentially vouches for your ability to pay back your credit card debt. If you misuse your credit card and build up debt, this can negatively effect the credit score of your co-signer. Become an authorized user of someone else’s credit card. When used properly, there are benefits to opening your first credit card. However, first time users are at risk of abusing them and piling up credit card debt.  In 2015, the average American household had over $15,000 in credit card debt. Having high amounts of debt can limit your ability to get approved for loans, to own a home, and is a financial burden on yourself and your family.  When you receive your first credit card, it’s important to establish good financial habits and to avoid accumulating unnecessary debt. Setting and following a budget is a great habit to establish. Credit cards are useful because they allow you to purchase items on credit, rather than immediately taking money out of your account, but it is important to follow a budget.  Know how much you can afford to spend each month. You will need to...


Find out what your insurance will cover. Make an appointment with an experienced doctor. Choose the right dosage and method for you. Expect changes to your skin to come first. Look for weight, hair, and voice changes to follow. Ask your doctor about changes to your reproductive system. Go to therapy if you find your emotional changes challenging.

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

Transitioning medically is unfortunately often expensive. Actual costs will vary depending on where you live and who your doctor is, but it will likely cost several thousand dollars. However, there is some good news! More and more insurance plans are covering all or parts of the cost of transitioning.  First, talk to your doctor and get an explanation of expected treatments and costs. Next, examine your insurance plan. If you can't tell from reading your policy what is covered, call and speak to a representative. Both employer-based plans and Medicare and state marketplace plans are starting to cover more of the costs of transitioning. If your doctor doesn’t have experience helping people transition, seek out a doctor with expertise. They’ll be better able to guide you through the process and answer your questions. Schedule an appointment and talk to your doctor about what steps you want to take to transition medically. Hormone therapy will likely be the first step. Talk to your doctor about risks associated with hormone therapy. As a result of hormone therapy, your overall health profile will be that of a male. That may mean you are at greater risk for conditions like heart disease and high blood pressure. Testosterone can be taken in 3 ways: orally (pill), through a skin patch or gel, or with an injection. The right method for you will depend on your individual health needs. Talk through each of these options with your doctor. Don't be afraid to ask lots of questions. They're there to help you!  Oral testosterone is the least effective, so it's not as commonly used. If you use transdermal therapy, you will be using a skin patch or gel each day. If your doctor recommends injections, you'll typically get a shot either once a week or every 2 weeks. Doses vary greatly. It might take some time for you and your doctor to figure out what's right for you. Shortly after you begin taking testosterone, your skin will start to look and feel different. Your pores will be larger and you might notice that your skin is...


Find out when tryouts are. Make a plan to manage your commitments. Prepare for the Cooper Test. Expect introductions and warmups. Have practice games in your neighborhood or with friends if possible.

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

They usually take place in the beginning or middle of August, and may be before school starts. Check the high school’s website for details. Make sure that you get the date and time for tryouts at your grade level. For instance, freshmen and sophomores might be eligible for any team, whereas juniors and seniors may be required to place on a specific varsity team. Read the instructions about tryouts to find out which one you should attend. If you make the team, you’ll need to balance the stresses of school with a rigorous athletic schedule. For instance, a high school soccer team may have four days of practice per week, plus games and your individual conditioning and practice.  The school will most likely require that you maintain at least average academic performance in order to stay on a school team. High schools often post team rules on their websites, so check the sports section of the school’s site for any such lists, and read them thoroughly. You want to know exactly what will be required of you. Plan to attend every practice, meeting and game. Schools may not accept unexcused absences from practices and games, and may not even accept certain excused absences (depending on school policy). The Cooper Test measures how far you can run in twelve minutes, so make sure that you can run for at least twelve minutes straight. This shows coaches that you will have the stamina to run during the games. You may also be asked to sprint specific distances, such as the 40-yard dash.  Practice alternating between jogging and sprinting as you build up the endurance to sprint. Make a schedule by yourself or with a personal trainer, that works backwards on the calendar from the date of tryouts to gradually increase your speed and distance. There may be a roll call or the coach may ask students to give a brief introduction, such as your name and why you’re interested in making the soccer team. This will likely be followed by collective or individual warmups. Practice warmups on your own, so that you will know how to warmup...


Find out when your interview is scheduled. Gather required forms and documents. Complete your visa application. Undergo a medical examination. Attend your visa interview. Receive your visa. Make your travel plans.

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

The NVC will forward the USCIS-approved petition to the US embassy or consulate where the fiancé(e) lives. If you are the foreign fiancé(e), you will be completing the rest of the process on your own. However, the Department of State will usually communicate with you through the person who filed the petition.  Your fiancé(e) will let you know when you need to attend your visa interview. You don't have your choice of date here – the interview is scheduled by the embassy or consulate in your country. If you aren't going to be able to make the interview at the scheduled date and time, contact the embassy or consulate as soon as possible to reschedule. Your petition is valid for 4 months from the date the USCIS approves it. However, a consular officer can extend that time if it expires before your visa is processed. When you attend your visa interview, you will need to bring a valid passport, divorce or death certificates of any previous spouses, police certificates, medical examination report, evidence of financial support, 2 passport-sized photos, and evidence of your relationship with your US citizen fiancé(e).  Evidence of financial support can be provided through a Form I-134 Affidavit of Support. You can download this form on the USCIS website. Many of these forms and documents were likely already submitted with the petition. However, when you attend your visa interview, you must bring original documents with you – not photocopies. The visa application, Form DS-160, must be completed online at https://ceac.state.gov/ceac/. The application requires much of the same information provided in the petition.  Once you've filled out the application, the website will give you the option to submit. After submitting, print the confirmation page and take it with you to your visa interview. If you have children who will be coming with you, they may be eligible to enter the US on a K-2 nonimmigrant visa. Before you attend your visa interview, an authorized physician must complete a medical examination of you. The exam...


Find out where the closest audition to you will occur Prepare your song for the audition. Show up early, well-rested, and fully prepared. Stay warmed up for your audition. Be confident and calm. Sing your best. Forget about using any gimmicks. Bring an entourage to help you celebrate.

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

. Audition sites are typically made public several months before the audition occurs, so keep a close watch on the X-Factor website for open calls and mobile van auditions. Follow the show on social networking to get instant updates and you won't have to worry about missing out.  Typically, you can fill out the registration paperwork online and file it before you show up on the day of the open calls. If not, you can still sign up your paperwork the day of, you just might end up waiting around a lot longer. In the United States, open calls are typically held in a wide range of locations on the west coast, east coast, and throughout the south. Recently, there were open calls in LA, New Orleans, and New York City. In the UK, lots of auditions happens with mobile vans, in which the judges travel to different locations for smaller-scale auditions. Before you show up, you need to have your song verse prepared, memorized perfectly, and practiced extensively. That should be the major focus of your audition preparation. A good song doesn't necessarily need to be famous, but it should highlight your voice perfectly. Bonus points for songs the judges aren't super-familiar with (since they won't be able to compare it to the original) or original songs you may have written. Make sure you get a good night of sleep before the audition, avoid alcohol for 24 hours before, and stay hydrated. Eat something before you show up, because the audition will probably end up taking all day.  At most audition sites, overnight camping is prohibited the day before the audition, but try to find out how early you can get there. Either way, you'll probably end up being there all day, and there's no proof that earlier auditions go better than later ones, and vice versa. Show up when it's convenient for you and don't worry about performing. To register at the audition, you'll need to show two forms of ID. If you're under 18, a parent must accompany you and present their ID. After you sign the registration paperwork, you'll receive a wristband...


Find out where the tickets are sold. Start small and test the waters. Buy only as much as you think you can sell. Look into season tickets.

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

There are a few sources typically approved by most states. It is important not only to follow laws when selling tickets, but buying them as well. There are hefty fines for buying tickets for resale from an unauthorized source.  The most obvious source is the venue itself. Authorized or official resellers are businesses that the venue contracts to sell its tickets for them. This is typically a cost-cutting measure for the venue. You can also typically buy tickets from other licensed resellers. They might be looking to reduce a surplus or believe that demand for the ticket will be lower than they had predicted. If you are becoming a broker as secondary or part-time job, it shouldn’t be as difficult to hold yourself back. Before you know how well you can expect certain tickets to sell, don’t sink as much money into each event. Do some shopping around and keep your profits and, more importantly, losses minimal at first. It is important to have enough capital to make it through these initial learning stages. This is a general rule you should always follow. It may seem like common sense, but there is no use for a ticket after the event occurs. You can’t sell them later, like day-old bread. This is where experience comes into play.  Events like the Super Bowl are a feeding frenzy for ticket brokers. If you are lucky enough to have a chance to buy tickets, grab all you can. It has proven to be a lucrative event for ticket resellers for decades. Local music events are more hit-or-miss. You probably want to be more cautious about buying these tickets. The good news is that you will be out less money for each one you don't sell - especially compared to the Super Bowl. It has been regular practice for ticket brokers to buy season event tickets and resell them by the game. This may still be a viable option for some venues, but keep in mind that many sports teams and others are starting to place restrictions on this activity. Look into the rules for season ticket ownership before buying season tickets.


Find out where to buy chest binders. Choose the right size of binder to wear. Decide if you want a long or short binder. Put on your binder. Adjust your chest to fit your binder. Use tips and tricks to make binder wearing more effective and comfortable. Practice safety while wearing your binder.

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

There are several companies online that design binders specifically for trans men. There are also trans men who sell used binders that either no longer fit or aren't of any use to them. You may also be able to purchase a binder from your local sex positive merchant.  Binders are not only used for trans men but also for males who have gynecomastia. You can find binders that specialize in helping men with gynecomastia. If you can't afford a binder, there are many programs that you can apply for to receive cheap or free binders. However, most of these exchange programs are geared towards helping low income trans men when they're transitioning. If you know your bra size, most merchants will be able to help you convert your bra size to a binder size. If you're buying online, a chart or online conversion tool may be available on the merchant's website. It's important to get the right fit for your binder. A binder is not always comfortable to wear but you should always be able to breathe when you're wearing it. You should never feel restricted to a point that you can't. Short binders end right at your waist, or underneath your bust. Long binders reach several inches past your waist and about an inch before your belly button (depending on your body type).  Long binders tend to roll up and may need adjustment, while short binders stay unrolled easier. A binder that rolls can cause unsightly lines to show through your clothing. A way to counteract this problem is to fold up an inch from the bottom of your binder to stop it from rolling. Choose a long or short binder based on your body type and the comfort of your fit. If you have a heavier body type, you may benefit more with a long binder as it will not roll up as often. Binders are put on differently than regular bras or sports bra. Start by:  Putting your binder inside out and upside down. Step into your binder and pull the bottom up towards your head to your waist. Use the shoulder sleeves to pull the binder outside. Put your arms through the sleeves. Pull out the...


Find out where you may ship. Determine who you may ship to. Research the exceptions to the rules. Use an approved shipping carrier.

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

As a non-licensee, you can ship anywhere within your state of residence. Don’t send firearms to other states or countries. If you need to ship your firearm out-of-state for repairs, you can only do it through an FFL holder. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) defines your state of residence as:  The state where you’re physically present and have the intention of staying indefinitely. The state where you’re registered to vote. The state(s) where you live for substantial parts of the year. You are legally allowed to ship to anyone, including other non-licensees. Have your recipient show you a copy of their firearm license or other documentation proving that they can legally own a firearm. You can also conduct a background check on your potential recipient by making sure they aren’t:  A felon A convict of domestic violence A subject of a domestic restraining order A fugitive An unlawful user of a controlled substance An undocumented worker A dishonorably discharged veteran A former U.S. citizen (who has renounced their U.S. citizenship) Someone declared mentally deficient or involuntarily committed to a mental institution. You are allowed ship to a firearm to yourself in a different state. However, only you may open and take possession of the package. If you’re relocating to a different state, you may pack your firearms and ship them with the rest of your belongings. Before doing so, check that the type of firearm you’re moving is in compliance with that state’s laws and local ordinances. Don’t ship handguns through the United States Postal Service (USPS). USPS does not accept handguns for shipment from non-licensees. If you want to ship a handgun as a non-licensee, you will have to use a commercial carrier like FedEx or UPS. As a non-licensee, you may only rifles or shotguns through USPS.


Find out which colors are trendy this season. Compare trendy colors to the colors that flatter you. Find ways to use trendy colors that don’t flatter you.

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

Every new season, different shades and hues become fashionable. If you want to convey trendiness, finding a dress in a trendy color can do that.  Check out recent fashion magazines. Usually there will be lots of information about which colors are trending this season. Browse the clothes in stores. What colors do you see over and over? Those are probably the colors that are trending. Watch what women wear on TV and in the latest shows and movies. Pay attention to the characters who are the most fashionable. Usually several different color schemes are in style each season. Not all of them are going to look good on you, so pick the ones that match your coloring. Some combinations may include colors that don't suit your shade and undertone. In this case, just go for the combination that includes the most flattering colors. Even if you don’t look great in the trendiest colors, it doesn’t mean you can’t wear them at all. There are other ways to sneak the color into your outfit.  The further away from your face a color is, the less it matters if it flatters your coloring. Wear an unflattering, trendy color at the bottom of a long dress or in your tights. Wear unflattering but trendy colors in accessories away from your face like shoes or bracelets. Sometimes a little more makeup will do the trick too. Concealer, foundation, and blush can help tired, sallow skin look more lively. As a result, you’ll look better in more colors.


Find out who will be voting for you. Make eye-catching posters to spread the word that you're running. Film a campaign video. Create social media pages and invite your target audience. Give away fun items to potential voters. Demonstrate a genuine sense of school spirit. Act like a queen.

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

At some schools, only the senior class votes for  homecoming queen. At others, the entire student body gets a say. Figure out who will be deciding your fate on voting day, and direct your campaigning efforts towards that group. For example, instead of putting up posters everywhere, hang them in areas of the school where your target group spends most of their time (such as classrooms where required classes take place). If your school allows it, create and hang posters that make your name and candidacy clear, but also memorable. Enlist friends to help you make and distribute your posters, and make sure to put them up well in advance of voting day.  Puns might be corny, but they can help potential voters notice and remember your posters. Examples include: "Donut forget to vote for [your name]", or "Let's taco bout voting [your name] for homecoming queen."  Adapt recognizable words or images to announce your name and candidacy. By mimicking a logo, an album cover, or movie poster, you'll capture attention by using familiar concepts and symbols.  You can even tweak popular slogans to work in your favor. One oft-used example incorporates the Nike slogan: "Vote [Your Name] for Homecoming Queen – just do it!" Again, if your school permits it, filming and circulating a campaign video is a great way to let other students know you're running. Whether your video is humorous or inspiring, it'll help other your classmates remember you on voting day.  Include clips of yourself explaining why you believe you're a good candidate for homecoming queen, telling people who you are and what you care about, and why you love your school. Intersperse these with scenes of yourself hanging out with friends, cheering on classmates at games or performances, or doing your favorite extracurricular activities.  If you feel like using humor, film a music video that parodies a popular song. Invent new lyrics that reference your campaign and enlist your friends as backup dancers. Voters often appreciate candidates who don't take themselves too...


Find out your band size. Measure your bust size. Subtract your band size from your bust size to calculate your cup size. Put your band size and cup size together to get your bra size. Find the approximate weight that corresponds to your bra size.

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

To estimate your breast weight based on your bra size, you’ll need an accurate idea of what your bra size is. This means figuring out both your band size and your bust size, then using the difference to find your cup size. Start by wrapping a fabric measuring tape around your ribcage just under your breasts. Round the measurement up to the nearest whole number. Add 4 if the resulting number is even or add 5 if it’s odd. For example, if the measurement you get is 30 inches (76 cm), add 4 to get your band size of 34. Next, wrap the measuring tape around your breasts at the fullest point, just over the nipple. Round up the result to the nearest whole number. This measurement will give you your bust size.  For example, if you get a measurement of 35.6 inches (90 cm), round it up to 36 inches (91 cm). It’s best to do this without a bra on so that you get an accurate measurement. Your cup size is based on the difference between your band size and your bust size. The bigger the difference, the larger your cup size is. For example:  If the difference is 0 inches (0 cm), you are an AA cup. If the difference is 1 inch (2.5 cm), you are an A cup. If the difference is 2 inches (5.1 cm), you are a B cup. If the difference is 3 inches (7.6 cm), you are a C cup. If the difference is 4 inches (10 cm), you are a D cup. If the difference is 5 inches (13 cm), you are a DD or E cup. If the difference is 6 inches (15 cm), you are a DDD or F cup. If the difference is 7 inches (18 cm), you are a G cup. If the difference is 8 inches (20 cm), you are an H cup. If the difference is 9 inches (23 cm), you are an I cup. If the difference is 10 inches (25 cm), you are a J cup. Alternatively, you can find your cup size by filling in your measurement info using an online bra size questionnaire. Use search terms like “bra fit quiz.” Once you know both your band size and your cup size, combine them to get your bra size. For example, if you have a band size of 34 and a B cup, you’re a 34B. If you’d rather not do all the measurements yourself,...


Find out your carrier's policy on unlocking phones. Make sure your carrier will unlock your phone. Purchase a SIM card for your preferred network. Gather the information your carrier needs to unlock your phone. Visit your service provider's store. Ask your carrier to install the SIM card you purchased earlier. Enter the code your carrier gives to you when prompted.

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

Verizon, Sprint, AT&T, and T-Mobile have different criteria--though in most cases, you must own the phone. Specific carrier criteria include the following:   Verizon doesn't place a lock on most of their devices. If for some reason there is a lock, you can usually request an unlock as early as six months into the contract.   Sprint will unlock your device for you if it has both been on the Sprint network for at least 50 days and been purchased in full.   AT&T requires you to submit your device's information for review. If your device is eligible for an unlock, AT&T will let you know within five business days.  T-Mobile will unlock your phone for you if you've paid the phone off and the phone has been on a T-Mobile network for at least 40 days. Even if your contract looks like it specifies that they must unlock your phone, calling ahead will ensure that you don't waste a trip.  Your carrier has a legal obligation to unlock your phone for you if you have entirely paid off your phone. Some carrier branches won't have the means to unlock your phone, in which case you'll have to visit a corporate branch. You can do so from online or from the network's carrier store. Having the SIM card on hand will allow you to install it directly after unlocking your phone.  Skip this step if you aren't planning on switching to a new network immediately after unlocking. You'll need to make sure that your selected network is compatible with your phone's data network (CDMA, GSM, or LTE) before purchasing the SIM card. Your carrier can verify this information for you. In order to make your carrier's job easier, make sure that you know the following information before going into the store:   IMEI number - Your Android's ID number. You can find this by dialing *#06#.  Account holder information - This includes the account holder's first and last name and the last four digits of their social security number.  Device phone number - Your phone's official phone number and area code. While it's possible to perform the unlocking process...


Find out your state's registration requirements. Locate and complete the required forms. File your DBA forms. Publish notice, if required. Get an Employer Identification Number from the IRS. Receive your DBA certificate. Comply with other state or county filing requirements.

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

Many states have specific requirements for registering an assumed or fictitious business name.  Not all states require you to register a DBA. However, even in states that don't require DBA registration, individual counties within the state may require DBA registration.  Some states require you to file registration documents with both state and county agencies.  You must check registration requirements for all the states and counties where you plan to do business. For example, if Sally Spade lives in Nashville, Tennessee, and plans to open candy shops in downtown Nashville and in nearby Franklin, she potentially would need to register her DBA in both Davidson and Williamson counties. If your state requires you to register your DBA, you typically can find the forms you need at your county clerk's office.  Some states or counties may have the form available online, which you can download and fill out.  If you can't find information online, your best option is to call your county clerk's office and ask for information about the procedures and requirements. Once you've completed your form, you must file it with the appropriate state or county agency and pay the required fees.  In most states, you only have to register your name at the county level. However, some states require you to register with the secretary of state, just as you would if you were a corporation or LLC.  When you file your forms, you'll have to pay a filing fee, usually between $10 and $50. Some counties require you to publish notice of your new DBA in a newspaper for a period of time.  If publication is required, the county typically will have deadlines you must meet. For example, if you file a DBA in Chicago, Cook County requires your first publication to be no later than 15 days after the date on your application. Publishing a legal notice in your local newspaper usually is sufficient to meet this requirement. The county clerk's office also may have a list of newspapers that are approved by the state or county to meet the notice requirement. ...


Find out your what kind of rings your intended fiancée likes. Figure out her ring size. Set a reasonable budget.

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

Knowing the styles of engagement rings she prefers will help you narrow down the vast list of possibilities.  If you want the engagement to be a surprise, pay attention to her comments on rings she sees or when other friends get engaged. Ask her friends if you’re not sure. They will often know the styles she likes or exactly what she wants. If the engagement isn’t a surprise, then ask your future fiancée what kind of ring she would like. Shop together and have her pick out several styles she likes. This way, you can surprise her with the final choice. Finding out your intended fiancée’s ring size assures that the day you propose you have the perfect ring for her finger.  People often don’t know their ring sizes. Take a ring she wears frequently and have it measured. Just make sure she doesn’t notice! A good way to do this quickly is to trace her ring on a piece of paper and then put the ring back. Many jewelers can estimate her ring size from your sketch.  Some people prefer their rings to fit a little bit looser to accommodate for swelling. You can have the size increased or decreased as needed once you purchase the engagement ring. Knowing how much money you can spend on a ring is important. You want to get your fiancée the perfect ring without going into major debt.  The old rule of thumb on ring prices is you should spend 2-3 months’ salary.  Be realistic about what you can actually afford. For example, it might only be 4-6 weeks pay. If you know your budget before you research and buy, you can make adjustments to certain aspects of the ring like cut and color. This ensures that you get the best possible quality and value for your money.


Find parents in your neighborhood. Take a CPR class Bring some creative ideas for entertaining the kid. Listen to the parents' instructions. Be patient. Be firm. Call for backup if you need help.

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

Babysitting is fun, pretty easy, and parents are always looking for a sitter to free up some spare time. Talk to your parents about talking to their friends, or neighbors in the area who might need a sitter. Think of parents in your neighborhood with kids and talk to them yourself.  Stick close to your house. When you're first starting out, make sure to pick a house that's close to your's, so your parents can help out if necessary. If there's an emergency, you'll be close to home. If you live in an apartment complex, this could be a really great way of making money. Offer to watch kids and have them dropped off at your own house, so your parents can help out if necessary. . Babysitters need to be trustworthy, especially if you don't know the people you'll be babysitting for well. One excellent way to get the skills necessary for babysitting is to take a short CPR class and become CPR-certified. Usually, these only last about a day, or several hours, and you can do it on the weekend. Generally, babysitters need to be around 12-13, at least. You need to be enough older than the kids you're babysitting so that they'll respect you, and so that you're capable enough to take care of them on your own. One of the best parts of babysitting is that you get to hang out with little kids and play for a couple hours. And get paid for it! To be a good babysitter, bring a lot of fun ideas about how to spend your time with the kiddos, and you'll be in-demand. Bring along some:  Games Books Art projects Old toys Outside toys or sports stuff Dress up supplies Babysitting isn't all games and fun. Depending on how old the kid is and how long you'll be watching them, you may need to feed, bathe, clothe, put down, and even change the diapers of a kid. Listen closely and write down everything you'll need to do to, so you'll have a cheat sheet when they're gone. If you don't know how to do something, be honest and ask the parents to demonstrate before they leave. Asking lots of questions helps to demonstrate that you're a good...

Look for clubs or events targeted toward people your age or in your situation. For example, a local café might be the meeting place for a new mom’s club. Or, you might find a group especially for teenagers sponsored by a science museum or church. A group or club organized around a hobby allows you to meet people interested in similar things. Don’t feel that you have to be an expert already: people love teaching new folks about their favorite hobbies! In fact, taking up a new, interesting hobby might be the best way to expand your circle of possible friends. Visit local stores that cater to your hobby. Talk to the people there and ask them questions.  Sing! Choirs and choruses foster friendships more quickly than other social activities.  Sign up for a cooking class. Preparing and eating food together helps to build social connection. Join a hiking club or rock-climbing group. The combination of being outside and moving around will allow you to talk to many new people, as well as improving your physical fitness. Take part in a book club. Most large libraries host book clubs, and many bookstores also advertise them. Some book clubs focus on a special interest or theme. Working together in a common cause will help you to develop closer connections with new people.  A regular volunteer commitment allows you to get to know people over time. Take on a shift at an animal shelter, or sign up to tutor with your local school system or church. Other volunteer commitments might be briefer but more intense. Working together on a political campaign can forge significant bonds, especially in the weeks leading up to a major election or vote. Once you’ve had several interactions with someone, it’s much easier to become friends.  You won’t be make instant friends at the end of your first volunteer shift or club meeting. But after a several months of doing something side-by-side, friendships are likely to develop. For example, if you sign up to work on the school newspaper, try to join the department that seems the most...

Find people who know what you're feeling. Admit you have a crush. Tell your crush. Acknowledge defeat.

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

It's hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel when you're in the middle of a crush, but plenty of other people have been down this path before you.  Finding out how they got through it can kick-start your own inspiration to move on.  Ask a friend or family member for help. Most people can sympathize with  love on some level, and they might be able to tell you about their own experiences overcoming a crush.  Even if they don't have personal experience with this problem, they can still give you some level-headed advice. Keep your eyes peeled for examples.  Once you start looking for it, you'll see countless examples of other people struggling.  Books, movies, songs and even news stories often center on someone grappling with an impossible crush.  Pay extra attention to the ones where someone gets over it, and note what you can learn. Before you can get over a problem, you have to acknowledge that it exists.  Allow yourself to say you have a crush, and to experience all the complicated emotions that go with it.  Consider writing down a few pages about how you feel.  Taking some time to express your emotional turmoil can help you feel like you're putting it behind you.  List the reasons why you developed feelings for the other person, and why it's not going to work.  Write it in a private journal, or on a password-protected word processing document.  Or, write it on a few loose pieces of paper and burn them later. State your feelings out loud.  You don't have to tell anyone else how you feel, but verbalizing your problem out loud — even if you're the only person in the room — can help it seem real and approachable.  It can be as simple as saying "I have a crush on Steve, and I hate that I feel this way." If you're certain they're mature and capable of understanding what you're going through, find a time when you can talk to them about it. One of the most difficult parts of getting over a crush is letting go of your hopes for romance. If your best friend is dating him, then you just need to back off. If you...


Find people who look lonely or overwhelmed. Talk to groups of two. Talk to the life of the party.

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

If you see someone alone in a corner looking at their phone, they might want to mingle but not know quite how.  Approach them and ask some questions to get the conversation going.  For instance, you might say, “Great party, right?” or “Hi!  Do you know anyone here?” If you find two people talking together, they're probably either a romantic couple or just two random people who started talking to each other.  In either case, groups of two are easy to mingle with.  Join their conversation or kick the conversation off by asking, “So, how do you two know each other?” This person probably knows many of the other party-goers, and can help you mingle with strangers by introducing you to them.  Talking to the life of the party is easy because they are extroverted and will carry most of the conversation. Identify the life of the party by looking for certain personality traits.  The life of the party often has a boisterous laugh and attracts many people to them.  They might also have a sophisticated storytelling capability that inspires or amuses others.

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

This will give you a few friends to start off with. You can ask your elementary friends what school they’ll be going to at the end of your final year, just make sure to get phone numbers so that you can make plans to meet up with them at your new school. Once you start school, you can also try to make friends with people you see getting on and off at the same bus stop. Friends that live in your neighborhood can be handy, since you’ll have an easier time hanging out and you’ll have someone nearby that you can call for homework help or advice. Even if you have a whole bunch of your elementary friends coming with you to middle school, you should still try to make some new friends. If you don’t try to meet new people, you’ll never know what you’re missing. Maybe someone you meet will be your best friend for a while. A great way to meet new friends is to join clubs at your new school. Most schools will have at least a few clubs and some have lots! Some schools will let you start your own too, if you don’t find one that sounds good to you. There might be book clubs, a bible study, movie clubs, theater clubs, environmental clubs, cooking club, robotics clubs, or yearbook club (and these are just a few examples). If your school doesn't have clubs, then you should set up an appointment with your school counselor and talk about creating a club. It will take some hard work, but you'll be able to meet some lifelong friends!  Don’t forget about sports! There are sports teams if you want to join a team, but there might also be clubs that are just about watching or playing friendly matches if you aren't really good enough or don’t want to join the official school teams. Volunteering is also a good way to meet new people and make new friends. Your school might have a group that volunteers to raise money for events, make cards for elderly people or people in the hospital, clean up local parks, or other great activities. You should show what you’re interested in, in subtle ways so that people that like the same thing will know...


Find personalized content on your "My Yahoo" page. Change the items displayed on your My Yahoo page.

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

One of the handy features of creating a Yahoo account is that it allows you to access your own personalized homepage via its My Yahoo feature. On the Yahoo.com page, click the "My Yahoo" link in the top right. You'll be taken to a page containing a variety of information custom-tailored to you, including top national and local headlines, local weather, movie showtimes, and more. Do so by using the "Add Content", "Choose Themes", and "Edit Layout" options in the top right of the window. You can also access your My Yahoo page when you're not logged in, but the content displayed on it will be more general and less specifically tailored to you. For instance, the My Yahoo page won't have content you specifically selected and won't have the layout you chose if you don't log in.


Find plantain leaves. Make a paste with fresh leaves. Apply the paste to the scab. Use the paste on your face.

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

Plantain leaves come from flat, long, narrow-leafed plants that grow nearly everywhere, including most people’s backyards. There are many different varieties, but they all have vertical veins in the leaves. Some people think they are weeds, but they have many medicinal properties. They can be used directly on wounds to protect the wound and promoting healing. The leaves also have antibiotic properties.  Most people don’t realize the plant in the backyard is plantain, mainly because there is another food called a plantain, which is a fruit like a banana. Plantain leaves are herbs and different from the cooking plantain, which is a fruit.  If you can’t find plantain leaves outside to pick, you can order dried plantain leaves and herbs from natural retailers. You can also buy pre-made ointments and salves made with plantain. Pick 10 fresh plantain leaves. Slowly boil the leaves in about an inch of water until the leaves are soft. Remove the plantain leaves and mash them using the back of a spoon. Allow the mash to cool.  After the mixture has cooled, add a few drops of an oil of your choice. Good choices include almond oil, castor oil, or mineral oil. You can use dried plantain herbs, mix it with an oil, and boil the leaves to make a paste. When you have finished making the paste, smooth it over the scabs. Then, cover the area with gauze or a bandaid. You can leave it on as long as you like. Put it on overnight and wash it off in the morning, or put it on and leave it until you shower. If your acne scabs are on your face, apply the paste to the affected areas two to four times a day. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse the paste off with warm water and pat your face dry.


Find pompano schools on the far side of wave breaks and sand bars. Use a spinning rod, fish finder rig, 2/0 circle hooks, and 12-lb (5.5 kg) monofilament line. Catch sand fleas to use as bait. Cast right into the break of the surf and on the back sides of sand bars.

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

The fish wait for sand fleas, also called mole crabs, and other small crustaceans to be washed off the beach and carried to them by the wave action. This puts them in easy reach of anglers who prefer to fish from the beach or a pier. Add a pyramid weight sufficient to keep your bait from returning to shore with the waves. You may need a bigger rod when the surf is heavy. Sand fleas are the pompano's favorite food and are readily available in areas where pompano are.  Look for v-shaped eddies when the waves roll off the beach. These are where sand fleas have washed ashore and are digging into the sand. Collect the sand fleas in a dry bucket. If you can't find any sand fleas, it's likely that you won't catch any pompano. Move to a location where sand fleas are plentiful. Pompano will eat other crustaceans, like shrimp, and even on occasion small bait fish.


Find productive ways to spend time alone. Wake up early. Only talk to close friends and family when you need to. Make sure you have a place to go when you need to get away.

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

Loners often spend time alone to recharge after spending a lot of time socializing. You can do whatever you want when you're alone, which is one of the great things about being a loner. However, since you'll be spending a great deal of time alone, learn to use that time wisely.  Learn a new skill, or use your alone time to focus on your hobbies. Introverted people tend to be more creative when they are alone.  You may also find it beneficial to meditate when you are alone. Spending time alone is all about recharging. It's okay to take a break from being productive to focus on mental clarity. If you have roommates, or if you live with your parents, it can be difficult to find solitude. Try waking up 30 minutes to an hour earlier than the rest of your house. Use that time to focus on the day, or spend it doing something creative. If you work in an office that requires you to share your space with co-workers, it may help you to get to work early. Try to get to work a half hour or so before your peers. You'll be in before things get busy, and you'll feel more focused. Just because you're a loner doesn't mean you dislike people. You may still have a few close friends, but still, you need time alone and you need your family to understand that. Let your friends and family know that you occasionally need time alone to recharge. Remind them that you aren't upset or depressed, and that you prefer time alone to organize your thoughts and clear your head. They'll understand. The best place to get away is a private room with a door, such as a bedroom. If you can't use your bedroom, try to find another private space where you can shut out the rest of the world. Outfit your space with things that you can use when you are alone. Fill it with books you've been wanting to read, or art supplies in case you get creative. Make sure the space is comfortable. You'll be spending a lot of time in your room, so make sure you enjoy it.


Find professional services. Take classes. Learn new things. Learn about your family history.

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

The internet is quickly becoming like a giant directory. Most professional services these days either have a website or at least a Google listing, so that you can easily get addresses and contact information, as well as hours and pricing. You can even use some websites to get recommendations, like AngiesList.com. You can take full university courses or even just free courses online, if you want to learn a new skill or keep your brain active. You can find free courses from major universities on websites like Coursera, but actual degree programs online usually cost money. If you're in the mood for more of a lecture than a full class, you can also find this kind of bite-size info on the internet. Go to websites like TED to see interesting lectures from some of the best minds in the world, for free. You can learn loads of basic skills (and not-so-basic ones!) on websites like this one, wikiHow. You can also find websites like Wikipedia, which is a free online encyclopedia and contains a vast wealth of information..  YouTube has lots of information and entertainment in video format. If you're interested in your family history, you can do research about where you and your family come from. There are lots of ancestry websites which can provide not only information but also sometimes things like pictures or draft cards. Try Ancestry.com, FamilySearch.org, and EllisIsland.org. Many publicly available census records are also online.


Find quality kava. Mix the kava powder in water but remove the kava root before drinking. The amount of kava depends on your taste -- more kava means a more potent drink.

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

Local stores might sell it or you can order some online.  There are many different kinds of kava and one brand may be stronger than another.  Imports from Vanuatu or Fiji tend to be strongest.  For this method you will need ground kava root but other forms exist. You can do this with a large teabag or filter the drink latter.  If you don't mind the taste and want some extra fiber you can leave the kava in your drink. As a general rule use one heaping tablespoon for every cup of water used.  Some people like to add vegetable oil or a cup of milk (e.g. 2 cups water, 1 cup milk, 3 tablespoons kava).


Find recipes that use similar ingredients to save money and time. Engage your family when planning meals. Choose healthy options now to eat healthy throughout the week. Buy produce that is in season or on sale to save money and eat fresher foods. Make a "theme night" once a week, such as Taco Tuesdays or Pasta Wednesdays. Check the weather to determine what nights you might want hot or cold foods. Save your receipts and keep notes on your meal planning, adjusting accordingly.

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

Once you get the hang of meal planning, you'll realize it is a fantastic tool to spend your time and money more effectively. For example, find multiple recipes for the Brussels sprouts used on Monday and then buy them in bulk instead of buying a smaller, and more expensive, amount of sprouts. Choose recipes like stir-fries or fried rice that are easily customized at the end of the week, allowing you to throw in all your leftover onions, peppers, and other vegetables. For example, you might do a chicken salad one night and chicken tacos the next. You can cook all the chicken the first night, then reheat it in taco sauce or seasoning the next. There is no reason you have to do this all by yourself. Moreover, getting the whole family to send in recipes ensures that everyone gets to eat something they want. This is also a great way to help kids expand their palettes and make sure that they eat each night. When meal planning healthy recipes, you ensure that you eat healthy food. If you only plan healthy meals, you can can avoid a last-minute box of Mac and Cheese on days you're unsure what to eat. Planning around your schedule takes the stress off of you later in the week to find something healthy each night. Determining what is in season, and how to use it, is difficult at the store, but you can easily plan for seasonal fruits and vegetables at home and pick 2-3 recipes that make use of them. Check out what is on sale online when meal planning, then plan your recipes accordingly. This takes a whole day off of your calendar, making planning that much easier. It also lets you perfect that one option every week. When you're at the store, you can easily start mixing and matching the recipes depending on what is on sale, since you know generally what you'll need for Hot Salad Saturdays. It is no secret that our food preferences change depending on the weather. So, if there is a cold rainy night coming up, prepare for grilled cheese and soups. If a heat wave is coming, look for meals that don't require tons of time...


Find responsible friends. Talk to the staff. Find a club adviser. Spread the word to the club commissioner, if relevant for your school.

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

You can't start a club with only one member. Every club has certain positions that need to be filled by responsible people, defined as loyal, intelligent, and hardworking. A club containing people like this will definitely succeed. Also starting to talk with the responsible friends will help in the planning of the club so that one will not have to do it by oneself beforehand. Speak to the teachers of both your classes, your friend's class (if he/she is in a different class), and your members' class/classes. If all of them agree on your plan, you may speak to the principal. If the principal agrees, move on to the next step. A club adviser is not an adult/teacher that is supposed to babysit a club; they are a trusted mentor. They also need to possess an interest in the club's activity or goal. So find the perfect one that would take an interest in the club.  So that they would love to be involved making the club more active and prosperous. Even with the best team, you still need approval. If the club commissioner which approves clubs gets the wrong idea about your club on the form,and they did not interpret the information on the form correctly, the club will unfortunately be rejected.


Find several sharp, stainless steel knives. Select a melon to practice on. Learn how to hold the knife. Carve a simple, shallow pattern. Cut a grid into this pattern. Practice carving smaller shapes. Try making angled cuts.

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

Bronze knives may also be used, but other metals are likely to cause discoloration in the fruit. Sharp paring knives or Thai carving knives are ideal. The blade of a knife for fruit carving is often only 2–4 inches (5–10 cm) long, but ideally the handle is long and comfortable to hold. Optionally, select additional tools for certain purposes. A zester or garnishing tool with a V-shaped stripe may be the most common of these, used to remove strips from the fruit. A melon provides a great deal of space to practice on, and the firm rind holds a shape well. If you are feeling more ambitious, you can carve almost any fruit. Firm fruits such as apple or pineapple are typically easier to carve than soft fruits, such as kiwis or grapefruit. This method will assume you are using a melon, but most of it can be adapted to other fruits. Place the thumb of your dominant hand on the knife handle, right next to the blade. Put your index finger on the dull, upper edge of the blade. Lower your middle finger onto the side of the blade, opposite the thumb. Curve your fourth and fifth fingers around the handle, gripping it comfortably. Try to cut or scrape off a simple pattern, such as a heart or a circle, partially through the rind of the melon. Try to cut this to an even depth, without revealing the flesh beneath. Score the scraped surface into a grid pattern, without removing any rind or flesh. Through the lines in the grid, you may be able to see the attractive color of the underlying flesh. Carve around this grid or elsewhere on the melon, practicing smaller or more intricate designs. Designs with short, straight lines, such as a diamond pattern, may be easier than designs with curves. It may take a significant amount of practice to remove the rind around a thin design without breaking it. Try to make sure the section of rind is cut fully through on all sides before removal. If you're having trouble starting the removal, stab the center of the section with the knife and pull gently. Angle the knife slightly while cutting,...


Find sheet music. Play music by ear. Breathe and take it slow. Join a fife and drum corps. Check with war reenactor groups. Keep playing on your own.

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

Locate sheet music for the fife online or at music stores. Use a fingering chart side by side with the sheet music to remember where to place your fingers for each note. You may be able to adapt music for another wind instrument—like a flute, piccolo, or panpipe—to play for the fife. Ask music store staff or someone familiar with wind instruments for help with this. If you can’t or don’t want to read sheet music, you can also learn new songs simply by listening to them and sounding out the notes on your fife through trial and error, one note at a time. It will get easier to pick out notes once you have a better understanding of your instrument and practice picking up songs by ear. If you get stuck figuring out a note or section of notes, try moving on to a different part of the song. Take deep breaths and move slowly from note to note when you’re figuring out a song. It helps to stand up rather than sit down to play. Hold your head and shoulders up and your chest open to take big deep breaths. It can be very difficult and awkward at first to move your fingers from note to note. Be patient. Break the music down into small parts (just a few notes at a time), then repeat the same part over and over until you can move your fingers easily to each note before moving onto the next part. Look up a fife and drum corps in your area. Join one of these groups to team up with other fife players and drummers to learn new songs, get valuable input and experience, and play in parades or historical events. If you want to find another group to play with, and especially if you’re interested in the rich military history of fife music, talk to war reenactors about playing the fife for their reenactments or other events. Continue to play just for yourself and improve by learning more from a teacher, an instructional book, or watching videos and looking up music online.
