Although your dog will likely get into anything you leave out, you probably take for granted the fact he can't get into the refrigerator. To make it easier for him, hang something from the handle of the refrigerator door. A rope with a thick knot on the end works particularly well for this, but a towel will work too. Just make sure it is properly secured to the handle. If you decide to use an old rope or towel (i.e., something you don't mind ruining), check the integrity of the threads. If strands come off or it rips with little effort, find something newer. The fibers and dust will distract your dog and may be harmful to his health. Hanging a towel or rope won't usually inspire your dog to start opening the door. If you are lucky, he will at least investigate the new door accessory. If you want to draw his attention to the towel or rope, point at it with your finger. When he pays the towel or rope any attention, click your [[Clicker Train Your Dog|clicker] and give him a reward. First, click and reward when he looks at the towel or rope. Second, make him touch the rope with their nose before clicking and rewarding. This is the first part of shaping your dog's behavior into the acceptable form. Once he knows paying attention to the towel or rope is an avenue for rewards he will expect them. Now, you want to start training your dog to open the door on command. While standing near the refrigerator (i.e., close enough to point and touch the towel or rope), use a command such as "Open the fridge". Click and reward when he successfully bites the towel or rope. Your dog may not initially understand the new command. He has been getting rewards without it so far. First, click and reward when he touches the towel or rope. Second, stop clicking and rewarding for just touching the rope. He will get aggravated and naturally bite the rope. Any motion to bite the rope should get a click and reward (e.g., touching it with his teeth or licking it). Don't move on until he actually bites the rope or towel. Once your dog knows...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Haz que el refrigerador sea fácil de abrir para el perro. Enséñale a tu perro a fijarse en la toalla o la cuerda. Elogia a tu perro por morder la toalla o la cuerda. Entrena al perro para que tire de la toalla o cuerda. Recompensa al perro por abrir la puerta.


Always adopt from a shelter. Cats end up in shelters due to abandonment, the illness/death of a past owner, and a variety of other reasons, but rarely because they're “damaged.” All they need are good, loving homes. Because animals are often euthanized to make room for new arrivals, you'll save a life when you adopt a shelter kitten. Applications often ask for your identifying info like your full name, address, and phone number. In many cases, you'll be asked for a photo ID to verify this information. You'll also have to provide information about other animals living in your home and the dates of their most recent vaccinations. Answer all questions honestly. This is to protect the kitten's safety. Wash your hands before handling each one so that you don't spread disease to them. Be open-minded and find a cat that you feel will be a good fit for you and your family. Pick them up, play with them, and pet them. Each cat is different and has different personalities. If a cat is shy or sleepy at that moment it could just be that time of day or they may not be too used to humans. Don't try to force anything. If you share your home with other people, bring them to the shelter with you. It's important that the entire household get involved in the decision. Many shelters require prospective pet parents to wait at least 24 hours before they can bring their little one home. This is to give you extra time to think about your decision to adopt and discuss it with others in your household. If you reconsider, you can back out without any penalties. During the waiting period, the shelter will put a hold on the kitten you chose to prevent someone else from adopting them. Most shelter contracts ask that you commit to spaying/neutering the kitten if that hasn't been taken care of. You'll also agree to keep them properly fed and vaccinated, not use them for experimentation or other forms of cruelty, and will return them to the shelter if you can't provide proper care. Other terms include swearing that you have no history of...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Dirígete a un albergue local de animales. Llena la solicitud. Interactúa con los gatos. Cumple con el periodo de espera. Completa el contrato. Paga la tarifa de adopción. Lleva al gatito a casa.


Always apply makeup on fresh, clean skin.  Use a mild soap or cleaner to avoid drying your skin out. Pat your skin dry. You may want to apply a makeup primer at this point to help all of your makeup adhere to your skin. The stick form of concealer is preferable as it applies the most evenly and hides blemishes well.  Use a liquid foundation and blend it well. Make sure your concealer and foundation are the right shade for your skin tone.  The wrong tone can make your skin look washed out, yellow or orange. Use a foundation brush to apply your foundation for the most even application and polished look. Use blush sparingly, as the Emo look focuses on the eyes and less on the colors of the skin and lips.  If you are going for a pale look then try not to use blush as the goal of Emo makeup is to accentuate the eyes. Keep the shade only slightly pinker than your skin tone. Apply in circles to the cheekbones. Avoid putting blush on contours or cheek hollows. Use a smokey eye effect.  Start by applying a matte slade shade of eyeshadow across the eyelid. Add a small touch of black eyeliner towards the outer 1/3 of the eyelid. Blend the darker eyeshadow to create a smokey effect. Since Emo make up is typically dark and heavy, make sure to get a lot of black makeup.  For eyeliner, get a black eyeliner pencil. Apply black eyeliner on the lash line. Extend the eyeliner a little bit on both sides of the eye and inner and outer corner to create a 2-way jacketed effect. Thicken the eyeliner. Go over the eyeliner again until you are satisfied with it. Make sure the eyeliner ends meet up at the corners of your eyes. On the outside, the effect should be somewhat catlike, with the line slanting upwards towards your temples. You can do this using a sponge applicator.   Define the edges of the eyeliner with a liquid eyeliner for a smooth effect. You can also add a coloured eyeliner here if you want to add some more vibrancy. Repeat the eyeliner application on your top lashes. Try to keep the eyeliner consistently smooth on both...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Lávate bien la cara. Aplica un corrector y una base. Aplica un tono de rubor claro y natural. Aplica una sombra de ojos de color oscuro. Utiliza un lápiz delineador de ojos. Esparce el delineador negro en el párpado superior. Aplica un rímel de color negro en las pestañas superiores. Utiliza brillo en los labios.


Always be aware of how you can help people. Wait an extra few seconds to hold the door for the person behind you. Offer to help people get their grocery bags to the car. You don't have to go overboard and risk hurting yourself (e.g. if you've got a precarious grip on something heavy, don't open the door for someone) but respect is paramount. True gentlemen don’t only focus on the women they like and ignore everyone else; being a gentleman is a way of approaching the world and all of the people in it, not just the ones you’d like to date. Be on the lookout for people who could use some help but who may not want to ask for it. The man carrying a tray of coffee would love it if you opened the door for him, but he may not ask. Be prepared to ask questions or make statements of courtesy, like "How was your day", "May I help you?", "Let me get that for you", or "I'll take care of that". Learn to speak slowly and carefully and to take the time to really talk to people in a polite fashion, no matter how rushed you may be. Whether you’re talking to your neighbor or the cute girl in your physics class, make an effort to smile, to be friendly, and to make interesting small talk about how your day is going. A gentleman doesn’t cut right to the chase, but takes his time getting to know people. Being able to make conversation is a sign of class and maturity, which are two important aspects of being a gentleman. Don't swear. Don't be vulgar. If it's too difficult to stop cursing all together, tone it down a lot. It’s just not gentlemanly to curse. If you do curse, you should apologize and try to keep the behavior from happening in the future. If you’re in a situation where you tend to curse more often, such as watching sports or driving in traffic, take extra care to watch yourself so you still come off as a perfect gentleman. Along with cursing, you should avoid any lewd or vulgar comments in general. And remember that what’s funny to you and your buddies behind closed doors may not always be appropriate for a girl you’re...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Ayuda a las personas a tu alrededor. Ten una conversación educada. Evita a toda costa decir palabras soeces. No hables demasiado de ti mismo. Evita tocar temas polémicos o incómodos. Trata a todos con respeto. Evita los altercados físicos.


Always follow the instructions of your eye doctor and those that come on your box of contacts. Daily contacts are not meant to be worn more than once, so immediately throw them away after you remove them. Improper handling and cleaning of contacts is a major cause of eye infections. Cleaning your multi-use contacts removes any film, dirt, and germs that may have accumulated on your lenses while you were wearing them. Cleaning and disinfecting them is important part of contacts care that you should do every day. Follow the care instructions that came with your contacts and your eye doctor's instructions.   Place your lens in your palm and squirt fresh cleansing solution into it.  Rub the lens with your finger for 30 seconds.  Turn your lens over, and repeat.  Squirt contact lens solution onto each side of the contact to rinse thoroughly. Repeat with your other contact. Put your contacts into your contact case. Be sure to put your right contact into the side of the case labeled with an "R," so you don't mix up your contacts. Put your left contact into the unlabeled side of the case. Make sure your contact case is clean, and have fresh solution in the case. Tightly cap your contact case, and put it somewhere you will access easily the next time you want to wear your contacts.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Desecha los lentes de contacto de uso diario o de un solo uso. Limpia los lentes de contacto multiuso. Almacena los lentes de contacto.


Always follow your doctor's directions when using Drysol. As a general rule, you should apply Drysol immediately before bed. This way the medication can work for six to eight hours when sweating does not occur.  Do not apply to broken or irritated skin. Don’t apply Drysol after shaving, this will increase the likelihood of skin irritation. Prior to applying Drysol to the desired area, you should wash your skin. Use soap and warm water to thoroughly clean your skin. Then, dry the area using a towel. You can speed up the drying process, by using a blow dryer on a cool setting. Put a small amount of Drysol onto the desired area. Typically, Drysol comes with a roller application, similar to deodorant. Drysol can be applied to any part of your body, but is most commonly used on underarms, palms, foreheads, and the soles of feet. Once you have applied Drysol to your skin, let the Drysol dry. It should leave a light film on your skin. Then, cover the area so that the medication does not get on your sheets or touch other parts of your skin while you are sleeping.  If you applied Drysol to your underarms, then you can wear a t-shirt to bed. If you applied Drysol to your hands or feet, cover them with plastic wrap and secure it in place using a mitten or sock. If you applied Drysol to your scalp or forehead, cover your head with a plastic bathing cap to prevent the medication from rubbing off. In the morning you can wash the Drysol off using soap and water. This can be done while you are taking a shower. Drysol may itch the first couple of times that you put it on. This is normal and should only last for a few minutes. If you experience more severe side-effects, such as a rash, hives, severe itching, difficulty breathing, tightness in the chest, or swelling of the lips, face or tongue, you might be experiencing an allergic reaction. If this happens you should seek medical attention immediately. In most cases Drysol will begin working immediately, and you will notice changes within the first few days. You should...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Usa el Drysol como te lo indique el médico. Lava y seca el área antes de la aplicación. Aplica el Drysol al área deseada. Cubre el área. Lávate el área por la mañana. Fíjate si experimentas algún efecto secundario negativo. Continúa con la dosis.


Always make direct and meaningful eye contact with the person you are talking to. Eye contact shows the other person that you are attentive to what they are saying. It is also important to keep eye contact when you are speaking to others. Keep strong and steady eye contact to exude confidence. Strong eye contact has also been suggested to help in recalling information. Lean your body towards the person you are speaking with to subtly show that you are engaged in the conversation. Let your body also be reactive to the conversation. For example, if something surprising is said, quickly lean back to show your shock! As someone is speaking, nod your head along to make your counterpart feel heard. A head nod makes people feel like you are engaged and want to hear more. Don’t constantly nod your head for no good reason; instead, ensure you are nodding at appropriate times. Making yourself appear larger will make you seem more confident. It also makes you seem open to the other person. Standing with your hands on your hips, instead of crossing them on your chest, makes you appear open and warm   Standing in this position will make yourself feel more confident, which will exude when you are talking. Confidence and warmth draw people to you and make you more charismatic. Make an effort to make more exaggerated gestures. Animated body language will draw people towards you because it demonstrates a level of passion. It also makes you more memorable, because people will associate the words you say with the actions you make.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Haz contacto visual significativo. Inclínate en la conversación. Asienta con la cabeza para mostrar que estás escuchando. Hazte ver más grande parándote con las piernas separadas a la altura de los hombros y con las manos en la cadera. Anima tu lenguaje corporal.


Always make sure there is plenty of airflow when you use spray paints as the fumes can be toxic. Spray paint cans work best in warm, dry and sheltered conditions. If it is cold, windy, or damp outside, work inside a garage that has good ventilation or wait until a finer day. Purchase spray paints from a hardware store or an art supplies store.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Escoge un área bien ventilada y protegida para rociar pintura.


Always make sure to move very slowly when trying to handle a hermit crab. Hermit crabs have compound eyes and can detect movement very well. If you move quickly, they’ll definitely see you and they’ll certainly be startled and will try to run away or defend themselves. When you go to pick up your crab, make sure to pick him up from the back. If you try to pick him up from the front, the crab might pinch you with his claws. The initial moment when you pick up the crab is key, so don’t botch this up, and don’t pick him up from the front of the shell or try to touch his head, claws, or body. After you’ve picked up the crab, hold him by the back of the shell then outstretch the palm of your other hand underneath the crab’s walking legs. The reason that you outstretch your hand is so the crab has somewhere to rest his legs, and so he’s not panicking and trying to grab onto to your dominant hand and pinch you.  Flatten your other hand underneath the crab. Make sure that your hand is completely flat and that none of your skin or fingers are vulnerable to getting pinched by the crab. If he tries to pinch you, slowly raise him up with your other hand just a couple of inches, and then try to lower him again. Make sure you do this just a couple of inches from the ground of his terrarium or above a table. If you drop him, you don’t want to drop him more than an inch or two. Keeping all of your fingers together will prevent the hermit crab from pinching you with his claws. It will also provide a large, flat area where the crab can stand up. In addition, your crab will feel safer if there is a solid surface beneath him. Once you’ve got the crab to rest his legs on your hand, let him go and allow him to move around on your hand. After being released on your hand, your crab should become more relaxed.  Make sure your hand is only a few inches off of a table or the floor. Don’t be afraid to let your crab move around freely on your hand. Try to relax and keep a steady hand. If your crab gets close to falling off your hand,...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Muévete lentamente cuando te acerques al cangrejo ermitaño. Levanta el caparazón desde atrás. Abre la palma de la otra mano debajo de él mientras lo sostienes el caparazón por atrás. Mantén todos tus dedos tocándose unos con otros. Coloca al cangrejo ermitaño sobre tu mano y suelta su caparazón. Alimenta al cangrejo.


Always move B&B shrubs by the roots, not the trunk or branches of the plant. This can damage or kill the shrub. Gently place the rootball into the hole keeping the shrub vertical. The root flare should be at or slightly above the natural ground level.  The hole should be as deep as the distance between the root flare and the ground. The hole should be between three and five times wider than the rootball. After the rootball is in the hole, remove as much of these containing materials as possible. While most burlap will disintegrate, it will still impede root growth for several weeks, so it’s better to remove burlap in the beginning. Don’t worry about pulling burlap or wire from below the rootball. These will not affect the ability of roots to grow. Keep adjusting the plant to ensure it stays vertical, and return the soil the hole a few inches at a time. Hold the bush gently and tamp down the dirt with your foot as you refill. Stomp lightly to make sure there are no large air pockets in the dirt, but you don’t want to make the soil so dense it blocks root growth. Continue the process until the entire hole is filled in.  Don’t add fertilizer, peat moss, mulch or other amendments to the natural soil. Remove any rocks or debris from the soil as you refill. Create a small ring of raised dirt around the hole to direct water inward to the root system. Leave a ring around the trunk free of dirt where water can collect and drain down to the roots. Allow the water to soak into the soil for several hours after you plant it, but do not over water. Water the shrub once a week. Dig down two inches. If the soil at this level is moist, you are done watering.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Coloca el arbusto en el agujero. Corta el yute, la cuerda y el alambre. Rellena el agujero. Riega el arbusto de manera minuciosa.


Always pay close attention to a monkey’s body language. There are some behaviors you should become familiar with. For example, a monkey is telling you it feels threatened and might behave in an aggressive manner if it blinks, makes an exaggerated yawn or gives you a big smile. When a monkey bares its teeth it is almost always a sign of aggression. If a monkey is acting especially aggressive, don’t run away or show your fear. The pecking order in monkey clans is well-established and running away will tell the monkey that you are subordinate to them and will increase their aggressive instincts.  Instead, back away slowly while still facing the monkey and avoiding direct eye contact. Most acts of monkey aggression are a result of a monkey thinking you have food. If you do have food, throw it in their direction. If you don’t, simply hold out your empty palms to show the monkey you have none.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Presta atención a las señales de hostilidad. Defiende tu posición. Muéstrales las manos vacías.


Always shave after or during a shower or bath, regardless of the part of your body you’re shaving. Warm water weakens hair structure and raises it from the skin, making shaving less irritating. In addition, always apply a shaving cream or gel before shaving to lubricate your skin. Avoid shaving with just soap and water. This is not enough to lubricate your skin and may lead to nicks, cuts, and other skin irritations. After applying shaving cream or gel, wait a minute or so before you start to shave. This will allow the cream or gel to reach the base of each hair shaft. It will raise each individual hair and moisturize your skin. It is easier to shave raised hairs and moisturized skin. Your razor will be less likely to cause irritation or ingrown hairs as a result. Avoid shaving with dull blades. Check the razor's lubricating strip before you start shaving. If it's worn down or faded, switch to a new one. If the razor feels dull when you start to shave, you should switch it out for a new one as well. Plan on changing your razor after every 3 to 6 uses. You may have to change it more often depending on the quality of the blade and the coarseness of your hair. No matter where you’re shaving, also go in the direction that your hair grows. Shaving against the grain pulls hair, can cause ingrown hair, causes irritation, and can cut the skin. All of these can increase hyper pigmentation. Be gentle, proceed slowly, and avoid applying too much pressure on your razor. Rinse the razor with hot water after every couple strokes to prevent too much hair from collecting between the blades. When you’ve finished shaving, you should wash your freshly shaved skin using a gentle cleanser. Rinse the area with cool water and dab dry with a towel after cleansing. Avoid skin cleansers that contain alcohol. If you want to go with a natural cleanser, consider applying witch hazel or tea tree oil to freshly shaved skin. This will help your skin recover and prevent irritation. You only need to rub a small amount of moisturizer over the...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Aféitate suavemente en la dirección en que crece el pelo. Lávate la piel después de afeitarte. Aplícate un bálsamo o una crema hidratante después del afeitado.


Always start the in-text citation with parentheses after the phrase you are quoting. The in-text citation should appear at the end of a sentence to adhere to APA style guidelines. For example, you may write: “Mortality rates are increasing for infants in the United States (Healey, 2001).” Look for the last name of the author of the website you are citing. The author’s name may be listed on the top or bottom of the website or on the article you are citing on the website. List the author’s full last name first in your in-text citation. For example, you may write: “Mortality rates are increasing for infants in the United States (Johnson)” or “The abstract painting was sold to an anonymous buyer (Marshall).” Check the top or bottom header on the website for a publishing date or the date the website was recently updated. Some academic articles on websites will list the date published under the author’s name. Put a comma between the author’s name and the date in the citation. For example, you may write: “Mortality rates are increasing for infants in the United States (Johnson, 2002)” or “The abstract painting was sold to an anonymous buyer (Marshall, 2017).” This will ensure the sentence ends properly and the in-text citation is complete. For example, you may write: “Mortality rates are increasing for infants in the United States (Johnson, 2002).”

TL;DR in Spanish:

Coloca la información entre paréntesis al final de la cita. Coloca el apellido del autor. Coloca la fecha de publicación del contenido que vas a citar. Termina la frase con un punto luego del paréntesis de cierre.


Always take clear, crisp photos and use good lighting. Natural lighting is generally the most flattering, but experiment with other sources. Strive to get the most professional looking shots that you can. Most site models use their cell phones to take the majority of pictures they post online, so take advantage of the countless effects that apps can offer.  Make sure to take diverse looking photos. Get shots of different angles and looks to maximize your chances of being noticed by a wider variety of agencies, editors and bloggers. Never post blurry or amateurish photos on your social media profiles. These will get you noticed for all of the wrong reasons. Photoshop is the industry standard for photo editing, but it's certainly not your only option. GIMP, Adobe Lightroom and Acorn are also great options. Also use photo editor mobile apps so that you have a range of tools at your disposal. Pixl is one of the most popular apps available right now and you can download it for free.  Experiment with a variety of filters and effects to get a feel for what these programs and apps can do. Less is often more, so use a light touch when editing your pictures. Work on getting balanced contrast and brightness in every shot. You don't want your images to look surreal or unnatural.  Use black and white images occasionally, but stick mainly to color images. If you're able to afford a session with a professional photographer, definitely set one up. Aim to get 6 to 12 high quality shots and consider those to be the foundation of your modeling portfolio. Site models don't necessarily need a portfolio in the same way that traditional models do, but it does help to have a few professional shots on hand to send to interested parties.  Post these professional photos sporadically on your social media profiles. The majority of your photos will be done by you (or a friend), but dropping a professional image into the mix every now and then is a great way to get a little extra attention. Keep your site modeling images separate from...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Prioriza la calidad en lugar de la cantidad. Aprende a utilizar programas de edición de fotos y aplicaciones. Acude a un fotógrafo profesional para obtener varias tomas de calidad. Mantén las fotos organizadas y con fecha.


Always take more than you think you’ll need, as you don’t want to wind up stuck without diapers halfway through your trip. Wet wipes are handy for more than just diaper changes: you can use them for quick hand washes and to cool and refresh your infant’s face. If your infant takes a bottle, take extras: your trip may take longer than planned, and you may not have an easy way to wash them. Make sure you have enough formula if that’s what your infant drinks. If your baby has started solid foods, take those supplies as well. If you are breastfeeding, you will need to eat regularly and drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated and fuel your milk production. Even if you are not breastfeeding, though, you’ll want to stay nourished and hydrated; this will make you a safer driver and keep you in a better mood. A baby blanket can be very handy on the road: you can use it to support your infant’s head in the car seat, to cover your infant while he or she is sleeping, and as an extra layer if your infant gets chilly. Towels are great for makeshift diaper changing surfaces; simply lay one down on the seat of the car to change your baby’s diaper (waterproof and/or disposable changing pads also work well for this purpose). You can also use the towels to wipe up any spit up or clean your baby off if he or she somehow gets dirty. Don’t leave a blanket in your baby’s car seat if you cannot see your baby at all times. It’s important to be sure it does not fall over your baby’s face. Your baby may spill food, spit up, or otherwise make a mess, so it’s best to have a change of clothes for each of you. Keep a few garbage bags handy for diapers, trash, and food scraps. You’ll need somewhere to put it all until you get to a place to dispose of it. A few soft toys may keep your baby occupied for part of the trip. Activity bars made to attach above the car seat are a great investment for younger babies. You can also take music – something you know your baby likes, or something likely to help your baby fall asleep. Don’t give...

Always talk to your doctor prior to making any changes to a workout or starting a new workout.  This is especially important if you're recovering from an injury or have had a history of a back injury.  Always get clearance from your doctor before starting to work your back.  Ask her when you can start exercise, what type of exercise, what resistance weight and if there are any other restrictions. Also ask her what types of pain are to be expected.  Some generalized muscle soreness is typical and usually doesn't signify you've injured your back.  However, more acute pain or pain similar to a past injury should signify you need to stop exercising and call your doctor immediately. Poor form during exercise is one of the most common reasons for injuries.  Since back injuries can be severe and debilitating, it's very important to ensure you always use correct form.  Consider talking with a personal trainer, exercise specialist or a staff member from your local gym.  They'll be able to tell you how to do exercises, use the machines and have correct form throughout your exercise workout. Try doing some of your exercises in front of a mirror.  Watch yourself as you perform the move.  Make sure you're using correct form and make any changes to your form as necessary. Whether you're recovering from an injury or are just trying to prevent one, it's recommended by fitness professionals to tone and strengthen more muscles groups besides your back.  More than one muscle group assists or aids your back muscles in a variety of activities.  Since your back muscles are smaller compared to others (like legs), it's the union of two muscle groups that helps make you stronger. Focus on also strengthening your core, pelvis and hips.  Many movements require the use of all of these muscles groups.  Also work your legs. Whenever you're lifting (either at the gym or at work), you need to use mostly your legs with the addition of some back muscles to effectively and safely lift objects. before you start with any exercises. Stretching is...

Always touch and handle the diaphragm with clean hands. Your hands contain bacteria and washing them before inserting a diaphragm ensures that your vagina stays clean.  Wash your hands with warm water and soap. Be sure to dry them before touching the diaphragm. You can also rinse off your diaphragm (if needed). If you need to empty your bladder, do this before washing your hands. Always inspect the device before use to make sure it doesn’t have holes or tears.  Hold your diaphragm up to a light source to have a clearer view during inspection. Gently stretch the diaphragm at the area of the rim on all sides. This helps ensure that there are no holes or tears in the device. You can also check for tears or holes by pouring water inside the diaphragm. No leaks should be observed. If you see leaks, do not use the diaphragm and use another contraceptive method. Never forget spermicides (jelly or cream) before inserting the diaphragm, otherwise the effectiveness of the diaphragm is reduced.  Add at least a tablespoon of spermicidal cream inside the dome of the diaphragm. Spread the spermicide over the rim and dome with your finger. Always follow the instruction in the spermicidal package as the different products are used slightly differently. You can insert a diaphragm by standing with one foot resting on a chair, lying down with knees bent and feet apart, or squatting down. Try the different methods to find the best method for you.  Once you have found the comfortable position, locate your cervix (the opening that leads to your uterus). You can feel your cervix at the end of the vaginal canal. This is where you need to insert the diaphragm. Pinch the diaphragm between your fingers and thumb and hold the diaphragm so that the inside of the dome (and the spermicide in it) is facing your vagina.  Separate the lips of your vulva and push the diaphragm all the way into the vagina until it reaches the cervix. Make sure the front rim is tucked under the pubic bone and that the diaphragm covers the cervix snugly. If it...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Lávate las manos. Inspecciona el diafragma antes de usarlo. Aplica crema espermicida al diafragma. Busca una posición cómoda para introducir el diafragma. Introduce el diafragma hasta 6 horas antes de tener relaciones sexuales. Lávate las manos después de colocar el diafragma. Añade más espermicida (si es necesario).


Always try to pinpoint the source of thoughts that worry you. Work through these thoughts by asking yourself the following: What is bothering me? How does this make me feel? What happened the last time I felt this way? What can I do to stop feeling this way right now?  For example, say you are distressed about your parents fighting. You might start by identifying that this is in fact causing you distress. Ask yourself how it makes you feel. Does it make you feel scared for the future of your family? Ask yourself what happened last time your parents fought: did they make up and get along for a time afterwards? Think back on some positive family interactions that occurred after the last time your parents fought. Because the mind is more sensitive to negative than to positive information, it is important to make that much more of an effort to use positive thinking. Do your best to think about something hilarious or something that generally makes you really happy. You can also try thinking about what is making you distressed in a different light.   For example, try thinking about a really funny internet cat meme or something sweet that your partner did for you. To think differently about what is making you distressed, consider this example. Say you are distressed because you failed a test. Try instead thinking about your bad grade as a challenge that you can surmount on the next exam by studying harder. Another way to try to change your thoughts is to engage in self-compassion. To do this, try engaging in compassion-focused attention. This means to deliberately pay attention to your experiences as they unfold in the moment; do not judge your experiences but instead do your best to think about them with gentleness, empathy, and kindness.  You can also try engaging in mindful breathing. To breath mindfully is to direct your attention to the sensations involved in your breathing, and to re-direct your attention to your breathing when your mind begins to wander to other thoughts or feelings.. Although these methods...

Always wash your hands with antibacterial soap before touching your nipple piercing (even after it’s completely healed). The easiest way to cause an infection in your nipple piercing is to touch it without washing your hands first.  Thoroughly wash your hands with antibacterial soap and water in the sink before cleaning or touching your piercing for any reason. Avoid touching your nipple piercing except to clean it for the first few weeks. If your nipple piercing becomes crusty around the edges of the open wound, you need to carefully remove the scabby crust. It’s best to do this in the shower so the crust gets wet and is easier to remove. Use your finger or a Q-tip to gently dab away any crust that has formed around the nipple piercing.  Be careful not to twist the ring too much while removing the crust. Only move the ring enough to get the scab off; don’t rotate it all the way through the piercing. Be very gentle during this procedure, as removing the crust too forcefully could cause a tear in the skin around the piercing and require a new healing process, or even result in infection. Pour ¼ teaspoon of non-iodized sea salt into one cup of warm distilled water. Let the sea salt dissolve in the cup. Use a paper towel to soak up the sea salt water and place it on top of your nipple. Let your nipple absorb the liquid for 5-10 minutes each day.  You can also try inverting the cup with the sea salt mixture on top of your nipple so that it creates a kind of vacuum seal and lie back while your nipple soaks. But be careful not to spill the water. Do this every day for the first two weeks after piercing. After the first two weeks, you can switch to regular cleaning in the shower. But use return to this method if you develop an infection or any irritation. Make sure to use distilled water, as tap water contains impurities that can promote infection. You can also use packaged sterile saline (this is different than saline solution for contact lenses) to soak your nipple piercing and clean it. Usually the packaging for...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Lávate las manos. Elimina la costra que se acumule. Haz una mezcla con sal de mar. Evita el contacto con el piercing.


Always wear cotton loose clothes, especially underwear. Cotton is natural and soft, gentle on your skin and doesn't irritate the skin any more than it already is. Cotton will allow your skin to heal and breathe.  Other synthetic materials can't absorb any of your sweat and can inflame, trigger and worsen your genital herpes. This goes for all synthetic materials, such as nylon, as well as silk. Avoid tight clothing, as it will trap sweat and further irritate your skin. Make your personal hygiene a priority. Take frequent showers, especially during summer or on hotter days. Change your clothes when you are sweaty or dirty. Use detergent soaps to wash your affected areas and hands, especially after each bowel movement, after applying your topical creams, after getting in contact with other people, and before eating. If you have a herpes outbreak, avoid partaking in any sexual activities to avoid infecting your partner. While you may infect him or her when the virus is dormant, it's much more likely to happen if you have an active infection. As an outbreak can happen due to stress and sickness, it's incredibly important that you take care of yourself to make the current outbreak go away faster and to prevent future outbreaks. Here's a few things to keep in mind:  Get 7-8 hours of sleep daily. Being fatigued wears down your immune system. Eat plenty of vegetables and fruits, like apples, cabbage, spinach, beetroot, bananas, papayas, carrots, mangoes, etc. Avoid sugar and junk foods. Drink only in moderation. Manage your stress levels. Consider taking up yoga or meditation to banish the potentiality of stress causing your next outbreak.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Usa ropa suela y de algodón. Mantén la limpieza y la higiene. Evita la actividad sexual. Cuídate.


Always wet the ball before shooting. This will increase its accuracy and will help it glide through the air more smoothly. A dry ball will go a shorter distance and can be harder to aim. Clean it in the water cup before every shot. Form is key when preparing to shoot. Whichever hand you shoot with, that foot is in front. The opposite foot is set up further back for support. Make your elbows will not go over the edge of the table, and practice your aim before you shoot. When you release the ball, there are three main types of shots. There is an arc shot, where the ball is released higher and drops into a cup. A fastball shot is when a quick, direct shot is made at the cup. And there is a bounce shot, which is bounced on the table before dropping in the cup. Fastballs shots are sometimes not allowed because they can get out of hand. Always keep your eye on the table to avoid a sneaky shot being aimed at you. You can use the others teams moment of distraction to your advantage. One technique is to pretend like you are not paying attention. While the other team is shooting, you can look away or start talking to someone on the sidelines. If a ball is spinning on the rim of the cup and hasn’t dropped in yet, you can blow or take the ball out with your finger. The rule typically calls for girls to blow on the ball and for guys to take it out with their finger. As long as the ball doesn’t hit the beer, it will not count as a shot if it comes out.  For girls, when the ball is spinning around, you are allowed to blow into the cup to force the ball out. Put your face near the cup and blow on the ball as hard as you can. For guys, while it’s spinning, reach in with your finger and try to get under the ball. You have to be fast. Put your finger under the ball and pull out it quickly.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Prepara la pelota. Colócate en la postura correcta. Practica tus tiros. Permanece alerta todo el tiempo. Sopla o gira la pelota.


Among other things, one thing many food scientists (or sensory analysts) do is help develop new food products, or make existing food products better.  In order to make sure the food meets consumer expectations, they spend time organizing taste tests with consumers and analyzing the results of those tests.  Food scientists also get to taste test their own food, before it is tested by consumers.  At a minimum, food scientists require a Bachelor’s of Science degree from a post-secondary school, normally in a food science-related major. Many food scientists go onto pursue graduate degrees as well, especially if they’re interested in academic research. Food scientists earn approximately $58,000 per year. If you decided to pursue a career in food science or sensory analysis, and you don’t already have the appropriate education, you will need to enroll in a Bachelors of Science program at a university.  All major universities have a science faculty where you can earn a Bachelors of Science in a general area like biology or chemistry.  But some schools have special food science departments where they teach you more specific skills pertaining to food production.  Examples of some North American options are as follows:  The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has an undergraduate degree in Food Science and Technology.  North Carolina State University has undergraduate programs in Food Science, Bioprocessing Science, Nutrition Science, and Applied Nutrition.  The Culinary Institute of America has undergraduate programs in Culinary Arts, Applied Food Studies, and Culinary Science.  The University of Florida has undergraduate programs in Dietetics, Food Science and Nutritional Sciences. The University of Alberta has undergraduate programs in Nutrition, Food Science, and Dietetics. Some universities, in addition to degree programs, also offer after-degree or certificate programs in more specific subjects associated with sensory analysis.  If you already have a Bachelors of Science, but did not major in food sciences or...

An Army roll is a great way to fold a T-shirt into a tight, compact roll that takes up the least amount of space possible. When you’re packing a suitcase for travel, use the Army roll to use less space in your luggage. The Army roll is the most time-consuming way to fold a T-shirt. You can use a table, a bed, or any other surface that’s flat and clean. Place the T-shirt face up and use your hands to get rid of any wrinkles or creases that may be on the shirt.

An English Master's Thesis has different requirements and employs different formats than a Master's Thesis in Chemistry. There are two types of Master's theses:  Qualitative. This type of thesis involves completing a project that is exploratory, analytical, or creative in some way. Usually, students in the humanities will complete this kind of thesis. Quantitative. This type of thesis involves conducting experiments, measuring data, and recording results. Students in the sciences usually complete this kind of thesis. Prepare a clear statement of the central thesis question that you intend to answer with your research. Being able to state your thesis explicitly and clearly is important. If you struggle with stating the question, you might need to rethink your project altogether. The outline will be beneficial to you to "see where you're going" as you move forward in your project, but also to give your committee members an idea of what you want to accomplish and how you plan to do so. You should check with your university for the exact requirements, which are often strict and institutionally specific. However, most Master's theses should include the following:  Title page Signature page (with the completed signatures of your advising committee - usually attained at the defense, or after the project is deemed complete) Abstract - this is a short (one paragraph or so) description/summary of the work completed in your thesis Table of Contents (with page numbers) Introduction Body of paper Conclusion Works Cited or Bibliography Any necessary appendices or endnotes

An FTP (File Transfer Protocol) is another handy way to transfer files between machines using only the internet. First you'll work with the server computer - the one that has the files you want to transfer - in order to make it accessible. FTP is generally best if you feel you need recurring access between your two laptops.  On a Mac, go to System Preferences->Sharing->Services and check "FTP Access". Next click "Start" and wait for the change to apply. Note that this path may be slightly different in different versions of OSX. In Windows, go to Control Panel->Programs->Programs and Features->Turn Windows features on or off. Next click the plus symbol next to "Internet Information Services" (IIS), then put a check next to "FTP Server." Click "OK". This is software that allows you to easily access FTP servers with only the server address or IP address. Popular ones include FileZilla, WinSCP, Cyberduck, and WebDrive. Now all you need to do is log in to the FTP server from the client computer and access your files for fast and secure transfer.  On a Mac, go to Finder->Go->Connect to Server. You will be prompted for the server or IP address of the server computer. Enter it and click "Connect". In Windows, open your internet browser and type the server computer's IP address into the address bar directly. Go to File->Login As. Enter the username and password to log in. If you're having trouble finding your server computer's IP address, consult Find Your IP Address on a Mac or Find the IP Address of Your PC. For more details on the FTP method of transferring files, check out Set up an FTP Between Two Computers.

An IEP is a collaborative process involving the hard of hearing child’s family and educators and school administrators.  As the name indicates, it establishes a set of policies, plans, and adaptations that will enable the hard of hearing child to maximize their educational potential.  Hard of hearing children and their families have the right to expect reasonable accommodations in a traditional educational setting.  The IEP will help to establish these policies in concrete terms. If the child will attend a school for deaf and hard of hearing children, an IEP will still be a useful to for ensuring that they receive the best personalized educational experience. Teaching a hard of hearing child may require more direct, face-to-face communication, especially when discussing abstract concepts (time or feelings, for instance). However, make sure the process is a two-way street.  Encourage the child to respond and interact with you and other students in order to develop their communication skills. It can be tempting to serve as the deaf child’s “interpreter” for the other members of the class, but encourage interaction among the students as well.  Find the combination of signing, gesturing, lip reading, writing, and speaking that facilitates communication among the hard of hearing child(ren) and the other students. Legal requirements, human compassion, and plain old common sense dictate that some “helpful adaptations” will need to be made in order for a hard of hearing child to have the same chance for success as non-disabled students. Use the IEP and discussions with the student and parents to determine the particular adaptations that will support the child’s learning needs while minimizing distractions or difficulties for the other students. Such “useful adaptations” may include, among others:  keeping the door and windows closed to reduce outside noise; always teaching from the front of the room, while facing the class; summarizing / restating the questions, answers, and comments made by other students; writing...

An LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) center is a place where you can get counseling and health information, as well as lists of LGBT-friendly businesses and community resources. Find a local LGBT center by visiting the website for CenterLink: The Community of LGBT Centers. A professional who specializes in relationships and sexuality may be able to help you understand your relationship and your partner’s feelings. You may be feeling anxiety or other emotions about your relationship, and it can help to have an outside perspective on what you’re feeling. If you feel your relationship is in trouble, you might think about seeking couples counseling. There are therapists who specialize in the LGBT community. You may feel that your sex life in your marriage is a private matter, but it can help to get someone else’s perspective on things. Choose someone who will not be judgmental and who will be respectful and trustworthy.

TL;DR in Spanish:

An abused horse will most likely have misshapen or damaged hooves. Horse hooves continue to grow like human fingernails, so if they are not cared for properly, they can become mangled. It can take months of regular foot trimming by an experienced farrier to gradually trim the hoof back and encourage it to grow in a healthy shape. Severely overgrown toes look like an Aladdin's slipper, with a curl of extra horn beyond the forward profile of the hoof. The farrier will trim back the excess horn, but will avoid cutting into the living part of the hoof, as it contains blood vessels and nerves. Because of illnesses or poor nutrition the keratin of the hoof wall may be in poor condition. This causes it to flake, peel, or crack. Superficial flaking and peeling may be pared away, but cracks  are potentially more serious. If a crack extends through the whole thickness of the hoof wall it may split apart and cause extreme pain. The farrier can use special horseshoes in order to stop the hoof from spreading under the horse's weight. This helps prevent the crack from growing longer and extending up to the coronary band where the hoof grows from. However, just like a broken fingernail, you have to wait for the damaged area to grow out which can take six to twelve months. Hooves affected by founder are often misshapen. The delicate laminae in your horse’s hoof suspend the toe bones inside the hoof, allow the bones to move within the hoof, and alter weight distribution. Founder can damage the laminae. These hooves tend to be of poor quality keratin, and the foot grows long and sloping, in an elongated shape, instead of upright and blocky. The farrier will take remedial action by trimming back long toes, and raising the heel on an orthopedic horseshoe. This helps place the weight more on the toe than the heel, and encourages further growth in a better alignment. Again, this is a lengthy undertaking that may take up to a year.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Ten paciencia al manejar los cascos dañados del caballo. Trata los cascos severamente descuidados. Ayuda a los cascos del caballo a recuperarse de grietas. Maneja la infosura que ocurre en los cascos.


An abusive relationship describes a relationship where one person consistently and constantly uses tactics to psychologically, physically, financially, emotionally, and sexually control and have power over another person. A relationship marked by domestic violence is a relationship where there is an imbalance of power. This kind of abuse usually involves verbal abuse, where the abuser systematically lowers your self-esteem by calling you names, criticizes you constantly, doesn’t show any trust, acts like you a possession, threatens you, and uses your children against you or threatens to hurt them, among other behaviors. Possessive behavior is a form of emotional abuse, but it can be accompanied by other forms of abuse. The actual acts of physical violence might seem like they are self-explanatory or too obvious to mention. But for people who grew up getting hit, they might not realize that this is not a normal, healthy behavior. The following are signs of physical abuse:  “Pulling your hair, punching, slapping, kicking, biting or choking you.”  Denying you the right to meet your basic needs, such as food and sleep. Breaking your belongings or things in your home, such as throwing dishes or punching holes in the walls. Threatening you with a knife or gun, or uses a weapon on you. Physically barring you from leaving, calling 911 for help, or going to the hospital. Physically abusing you or your children. Kicking you out of your car and leaving you in strange places. Driving aggressively and dangerously while you are in the car. Making you drink alcohol or take drugs. This kind of abuse encompasses any unwanted sexual activity. It includes “sexual coercion,” which makes you feel like you are being forced to have sex. It also includes “reproductive coercion,” which means not allowing you to have a choice in pregnancy. An abuser may control the way you dress, rape you, purposely give you a sexually transmitted disease, drug you or get you drunk to have sex with you, make you pregnant or terminate your pregnancy...

An acronym can help you remember the names of the months. An acronym is a memory device in which you make up a word or sentence using the first letter in a group of terms you must memorize. This can easily be used to help you remember the days in each month.  The first letter of September, April, June, and November are S, A, J, and N. You could make a sentence like, "Sarah And June Nap." January, March, May, July, August, October, and December all have 31 days. The first letters (D, J, M, M, O, J, and A) can make: "Justin Must Make Diced Apricot Orange Jam." Mnemonic devices help you remember complicated information by associating an image with information. For example, if you want to remember that February has 28 days most years, picture hearts forming the numbers 2 and 8. Hearts are related to February because of Valentine's Day. If you can find ways to make connections between which months have which number of days, it can be easier to remember. Facts are easier to remember if you can make some connection.  For example, September, April, June, and November all have 30 days and beginnings. School begins in September; spring starts in April and summer starts in June. The day after Thanksgiving in November is the beginning of the Christmas season. You may not be able to link all the months with 31 days, since there are so many, but you can still find small connections between small groups of months. For example, January is harsh and cold, while March is dreary and rainy. October contains Halloween, a frightening holiday. All these months have certain qualities that are scary, fierce, or harsh.

An ad filter is a URL that the ad-blocking extension looks for when deciding what to block. Both AdBlock and Adblock Plus allow you to write your own filters, so you can catch ads that slipped through the built-in filters, or block non-ad content that annoys you. A full tutorial is available here, but the instructions below may be easier to follow for beginners. If there's one specific image, video, or other web page element that you want to block, all you need is the associated web address. Right click that element and click "Copy Image URL" or "Copy Video URL." For other types of content, you can discover the address by using the "Block ad" command, described in their respective sections. This should open a pop-up window where you can select an element and find out the address. For example, if you add the filter http://www.website.com/top-banner/image-of-clowns.jpg, only that specific image will be blocked. If you visit the same page later and it displays "image-of-puppies.jpg" instead, you will see that image. Replacing part of the URL with the asterisk symbol * (Shift 8 on most English keyboards) will block all elements that contain anything where that asterisk is located. Here are a few examples:   http://www.website.com/top-banner/* will block anything that website.com stores in its "top banner" folder, hopefully preventing you from seeing anything in that ad frame. (Note that not all websites use addresses that are this obvious.)  http://www.website.com/*/image-of-clowns.jpg will block the image "image-of-clowns.jpg" on all website.com pages.  http://www.website.com/* will block all content on website.com. If a website you tried to remove ads from is now a blank page, you probably used an * in the wrong place. Many addresses include strings of seemingly random letters and numbers that identify the specific ad, the size, or other features. Delete these and replace them with a single * symbol. This is often the cause of using an * in the wrong place, but if the useful content and advertisement have very...

An advantage of knotting your tie dye is that you can tie as many knots as you want. This is especially useful for long strips of fabric. Dyeing knotted fabric creates a design where fine lines of white, like the irregular shape of cracked glass, run throughout your dye colors in random directions. Hold each end of your fabric in your hands so the length of it is stretched between. Then twist each hand in opposite directions in a wringing motion. Continue twisting until the fabric cannot be twisted any more. You might want a large, central knot at the center of your fabric to create a focal point in your design. You could also tie many knots to create a series of burst-like points throughout your fabric.  Be careful while twisting and knotting your fabric. You'll want it to be tight, but knotting it too tightly can cause the fabric to rip or warp. After you tie each knot, pull it tight. Hold the tightened knot with one hand to keep it from loosening. Then, with your free hand, reinforce each knot by looping rubber bands over them.

An advocate who doesn't even work for your company is the best salesperson you could ask for. First and foremost, treat all existing customers with respect, kindness, and generosity. People trust their friends, so creating happy customers is a key way to grow your business and gain leads. This doesn't have to be subtle either -- there are a variety of ways to promote client recommendations:  Provide "referral discounts." If a customer gets another person to sign up, buy, or contract your services, give them a 5% rebate or a small gift. Hand out extra business cards, magnets, etc. and ask your customer to pass on the information to anyone else in need. Keep customers engaged. 1-2 weeks after service or shipping, contact them again and ask them if they're satisfied with your company. Provide links or ways to share your information. Just ask -- tell your customers you're a new company looking to expand, and to please recommend you to any friends if they liked your work. People love to feel needed and helpful. You can also offer them incentives to them for recommending you as a way to create a small, impromptu "sales force." Note, however, that you don't want to just unleash your friends on the world. You should:  Provide them small packets or brochures with business information, pricing, and a basic FAQ to give to potential customers. There is a reason that Chinese food always comes with new sets of menus! Fill them in on your company's basic policies, products, and business philosophy. Developing customer relationships early on will pay dividends later. Brainstorm good leads with customers. Don't just send them out expecting them to find great clients. Let them know the kinds of people you normally help, or who might love your product, and brainstorm a list of people they might be able to talk to.

An agent can help you connect with potential buyers and make it easier to get your pitch package in front of the right people. Look for agents in your area that specialize in reality television and see if you can get someone to represent you. Look for a producer who’s already produced reality shows similar to the one you’re pitching. If you’re new to the industry and you don’t know any producers, pay to attend a conference like the National Association of Television Program Executives that takes place annually in Miami, Florida, or the annual RealScreen Summit in Washington, DC.  Attending a conference with high-level TV executives can cost over $1,000 (€843), so you'll want to make sure you're prepared if you decide to take this route. Make sure your pitch package is all put together and consider having multiple ideas to pitch.  At the conference, attend sessions hosted by network executives you're interested in networking with, and introduce yourself after the session. Have cards with your contact information on them that you can hand out to prospective buyers. If you have an agent, have them arrange a meeting between you and some network executives. Choose a network you could see your show airing on; if your show is about CEOs renovating their own penthouses, look for a network that airs home-improvement-style shows. Come to the meeting prepared with your pitch package (short tape, write up, headshots) and convince the network execs that your show would be a hit. If your show centers around the bold personality of a particular character, consider bringing them along to the meeting to help woo the network. If one network isn’t interested in your idea, that doesn’t mean other networks won’t be. Keep attending meetings and pitching your show. Take the feedback you get from network executives and TV producers and use it to make your pitch package better. If you’re not having any luck, consider changing the premise or structure of your show so it’s more marketable.

Consigue un agente si eres nuevo en la industria. Forma equipo con un productor de telerrealidad reconocido. Haz una presentación dirigida a las cadenas televisivas. Continúa ofreciendo tu idea hasta que consigas un comprador.


An airtight storage container with a locking lid will provide the best results. If that's not an option, stretch a sheet of plastic wrap or a piece of aluminum foil over the mouth of the bowl and press the edges down over the rim to create a seal. This will keep the contents off-limits from the air and minimize the chances of an accidental spill. Squeeze as much air out of the storage container as you can before sealing it up. There’s no need to refrigerate the potatoes if you’re going to be cooking with them. Just leave the bowl out on the countertop and remove the potatoes from the water when you need them. They shouldn’t display much discoloration, if any, after such a short time. Room temperature storage can be useful if you prefer to prep all your ingredients at one time before before moving onto cooking. If you’re not going to be cooking the potatoes right away, it will be necessary to keep them chilled. Place the bowl on one of the middle shelves in the refrigerator and leave it there overnight. Be sure to drain the water from the potatoes the following day if they’re destined for the oven or frying pan. Wet-storing potatoes for longer than about a day can cause them to become water-logged, which may affect their flavor or texture. Sometimes, the water you’re using for storage will begin to show signs of discoloration rather than the potatoes themselves. When this happens, simply drain the bowl into a strainer, then return the potatoes to the original bowl and add fresh water.  If left to sit in the dirty water, the potatoes will be soaking in the same enzymes that cause them to turn brown under normal conditions. Most of the enzymes will leach out in the first couple of hours, so you shouldn’t have to change the water more than once.

An algebraic expression is a set of numbers and letters combined by mathematical operations, such as addition, subtraction, division, and multiplication. The numbers in the expression are called constants or coefficients, depending on their function. The letters are called variables.   2x{\displaystyle 2x} is an expression. In this expression, you are multiplying the coefficient 2{\displaystyle 2} by the variable x{\displaystyle x}.  2x+3y{\displaystyle 2x+3y} is an expression called a binomial. In this expression, you add the product of 3y{\displaystyle 3y} to the product of 2x{\displaystyle 2x}. In this expression, 2{\displaystyle 2} and 3{\displaystyle 3} are coefficients, and x{\displaystyle x} and y{\displaystyle y} are variables. Once you add an equal sign to an expression, it becomes an equation. For example, 2x=14{\displaystyle 2x=14} is an equation. A variable is a symbol, usually a letter, that stands for an unknown value. In algebra, you are usually trying to find the value of the variable. In order to evaluate an algebraic expression, however, you need to be given the variable’s value. Evaluate means to simplify an expression. When you are asked to evaluate an algebraic expression, you need to plug a given value for the variable into the expression and solve. For example, you might be asked to evaluate 2x{\displaystyle 2x} when x=2{\displaystyle x=2}.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Identifica las partes de una expresión algebraica. Comprende qué es una variable. Determina cómo evaluar la expresión.


An alphabetical organization system makes it relatively easy to find books. You may alphabetize the books by the author’s last name. If you prefer a less traditional system, you may alphabetize the books by title. Depending on the size and scope of your collection, it may make sense to sort your collection into very specific categories. These may include fantasy, mystery, cookbooks, history, anthropology, art and art history, and or science. Alternatively, you could sort the books by reading level (children, young adult, adult). If your top priority is to create an aesthetically pleasing display with your books, consider sorting them by color or height.  Group the books by black, white, reds, oranges, yellows, greens, blues, indigos, and violets. When you are ready to stage your shelves, you can color block your books. Line your books up from tallest to shortest or group books of similar heights together. Use your books to create a timeline of literature and/or civilization. You may place the books in order of their publication date or you may organize the books by order of when the subjects lived, events occurred, or ideas originated. While you may choose to rely on only one method of organization, most collections are sorted by two or more methods. For example, you may choose to sort your books by genre and then place each genre in alphabetical order. Alternatively, you could sort your books by color and then place them on the shelf by order of height.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Organiza los libros de forma alfabética. Organiza los libros por género. Organiza los libros por color o tamaño. Coloca los libros en orden cronológico. Combina los métodos de organización múltiple.

Keeping an amulet with you can weaken the effect of a curse or hex so that it can no longer harm you.  An amulet can be any object that has powerful meaning and is sacred to you. A special piece of jewelry, a shell from your favorite beach, or even a length of ribbon you wore in your hair as a child can all be an amulet. Wear the amulet around your neck or keep it in your pocket at all times. A ritual bath has the power to cleanse away bad energy that's harming you. If you feel you've been cursed, light some candles and draw a warm bath. Try to think only positive thoughts as you have a nice, long soak. Sprinkle one or more of following into the bath to increase its cleansing power:  A pinch of salt Hyssop Basil Mugwort patchouli Vetiver Wormwood The same magic herbs can be burned to have and "uncrossing" effect, which means they break the curse or hex. It's not necessary to use every single herb on the list, but take as many as you can and bundle them up. Tie the bundle with a piece of string, then light it on fire (preferably outside or on a safe surface). By the time the bundle has burned away, the curse will be broken. Since mugwort, wormwood and vetiver are said to be particularly powerful when it comes to warding off bad spirits and breaking curses, you might want to carry some around with you. Fill up a small cloth sack with the herbs and tie it around your waist or put it in your pocket.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Utiliza un amuleto para protegerte. Toma un baño en sal y hierbas mágicas. Enciende incienso de descruce.


An analytical essay means you will need to present some type of argument, or claim, about what you are analyzing. Most often you will have to analyze another piece of writing or a film, but you could also be asked to analyze an issue, or an idea. To do this, you must break the topic down into parts and provide evidence, either from the text/film or from your own research, that supports your claim. For example, "Stanley Kubrick's The Shining uses a repeating motif of Native American culture and art to comment on America's history of colonizing Native Americans' lands" is an analytical thesis. It is analyzing a particular text and setting forth an argument about it in the form of a thesis statement. If you are writing this for a class, your teacher will generally assign you a topic (or topics) to write about. Read the prompt carefully. What is the prompt asking you to do? However, sometimes you will have to come up with your own topic.  If you're writing an analytical essay about a work of fiction, you could focus your argument on what motivates a specific character or group of characters. Or, you could argue why a certain line or paragraph is central to the work as a whole. For example: Explore the concept of vengeance in the epic poem Beowulf. If you're writing about a historical event, try focusing on the forces that contributed to what happened. If you're writing about scientific research or findings, follow the scientific method to analyze your results. You may not immediately know what your thesis statement should be, even once you've chosen your topic. That's okay! Doing some brainstorming can help you discover what you think about your topic. Consider it from as many angles as you can.  Look for repeated imagery, metaphors, phrases, or ideas. Things that repeat are often important. See if you can decipher why these things are so crucial. Do they repeat in the same way each time, or differently? How does the text work? If you're writing a rhetorical analysis, for example, you might analyze how the author...

An anemometer is a device that measures wind speed. It consists of 3 or 4 cups mounted on wires attached to a central rotating shaft. Wind catches the cups and makes them spin. The faster the wind blows, the faster the cups spin around their axis.  You can either buy an anemometer or make your own. To make your own, get five three-ounce paper cups, two straws, a sharpened pencil with an eraser, a stapler, a small sharp pin, and a ruler. Color the sides of one of the cups to make it distinct from the others. Punch a hole in the side of four of the cups about 1 inch from the rim. In the fifth cup, punch four holes equally spaced around the cup about 1 inch from the rim. Also, punch one hole in the bottom of this cup. Push one straw through the side of one of the cups leaving about 1 inch of straw inside the cup. Staple the straw to the side of the cup. Feed the rest of the straw through the fifth cup with 4 holes in one side and out the other. Place a second cup on the end of this straw and staple it in place. Make sure all of the cups face the same direction. Repeat the above step with the other two cups, feeding the straw through the remaining two holes in the middle cup. Again, make sure all cups are facing the same direction. Carefully, place a pin through the intersection point of the straws in the middle cup. Feed the pencil through the bottom hole of the fifth cup and push the pin through the eraser. Make sure your anemometer can spin freely. If so, it is now ready to use. If not, adjust the pencil so the eraser is not directly up against the straws. When one of the cups completes a full rotation, the distance it travels is the circumference of the circle. To calculate the circumference you need to measure the diameter of the circle.  Measure the distance from the center of the anemometer to the center of one of the cups. This is the radius of the anemometer. Doubling this distance is the diameter. The circumference of a circle is equal to the diameter times the constant pi or 2 times the radius times...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Consigue un anemómetro. Calcula la circunferencia del anemómetro. Coloca el anemómetro donde el viento pueda hacer mover los vasos. Cuenta el número de veces que el anemómetro gira en un intervalo de tiempo determinado. Multiplica el número de rotaciones por la distancia que recorre el anemómetro en una sola rotación. Divide la distancia total entre el tiempo que transcurrió.


An angle grinder is better than a saw at trimming granite or making cuts that do not go through the entire slab. Choose an angle grinder equipped with a dry cut diamond wheel, which is strong enough to cut through stone. Clamp the granite slab firmly to a flat surface (like a workbench) and move the angle grinder gently across the granite where you want to make your cut. Apply light pressure to the granite, and stop every 10-20 seconds to prevent going too quickly or putting too much weight on the granite. in granite using a 1⁄8 inch (0.32 cm) to 1.25 inches (3.2 cm) drill bit. Depending on your needs, these sizes offer enough range to drill into the granite without damaging it. Mark your measurements with painter's tape before you begin drilling so your holes stay even and precise. If you angle the drill, you risk chipping or cracking the granite while drilling. Apply even pressure to the drill as you work downward, and drill slowly so the drill does not slip from its mark.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Usa una máquina de corte angular en seco con cuchilla de diamante para hacer cortes más pequeños. Mantén el bloque de granito sobre una superficie plana mientras uses la máquina de corte angular. Haz agujeros Taladra el granito en línea recta hacia abajo.


An animal trap is a hands-free way to humanely catch an armadillo and get it out of your hair for good. Purchase a large one-door animal trap from a store like Home Depot or Walmart.  Make sure that the trap you purchase is a live trap, also known as a catch-and-release trap. These traps are non-lethal and won't harm the armadillo. Try to get a trap with measurements around 12” x 10” x 30”. Check on the trap several times a day after setting it. You don't want to trap the armadillo only to forget about it, causing the animal distress. If after a few days the armadillo is still loose, consider moving the trap to another location that the armadillo favors. If you have tried repositioning the trap and the armadillo still doesn't go in, call animal control. After you have captured the armadillo, try to release it as soon as possible. Put on protective gloves to protect your hands from the armadillo's claws. Place the cage on floor of your car or in the bed of your truck. Drive at least five miles away from your home to a wooded area, preferably one around water, and open the cage to release the armadillo. Stand behind or to one side of the cage as you release the armadillo. There's no reason for it to attack you, but you should still try to not stand directly in front of its path.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Compra una trampa para atrapar animales vivos. Revisa la trampa con regularidad. Libera al armadillo.


An ankle sprain would cause pain when you put weight on your foot. To fake a sprain, you should walk with a limp and avoid putting too much weight on your ankle. To seem convincing, you should pretend that moving your ankle provides you a moderate amount of pain. Your ankle is likely to be examined by a teacher, parent, or healthcare provider. They will begin by moving your ankle from side by side. When this happens, show that it is painful, but do not overact. Overacting may seem less convincing or result in your family or doctor running tests to determine the problem. Avoid moving your ankle from side to side or up and down as much as possible. If a doctor or healthcare provider looks at your ankle they might compare its range of motion to that of your unhurt ankle. A true sprain would limit your range of motion in the injured ankle.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Evita poner peso sobre el pie. Haz una mueca de dolor cuando muevas el tobillo. Limita el rango de movimiento.


An aquarius is unlikely to be swayed by regular flirtation. They are intellectually oriented by nature, and tend to prefer a partner they can learn from. When first attempting to woo an aquarius, showcase your intelligence.  When you strike up a conversation, mention something cultural. Ask about a current event or a recent film you just saw. Try to notice something about an aquarius and make a comment. For example, maybe you saw them reading a particular book earlier in the day. If you've read that book as well, that may be a good means to strike up a conversation. An aquarius is unlikely to be seduced by flattery or charm. They long for partners who can match them intellectually, and do not want to be simply fawned over up by a partner. When wooing an aquarius, share your opinion. This will make you stand out from potential suitors.  During a discussion of, say, a current event, unabashedly share your thoughts. Even if an aquarius disagrees, they will be thrilled at the opportunity to have a rich intellectual discussion. Never agree with an aquarius to please them. They will see through this and are not interested in partners that are not intellectually challenging. An aquarius needs a lot of stimulation to be entertained. However, they also have a tendency to dislike plans. Independent thinkers by nature, plans can be seen as a form of control. When planning dates, keep things flexible.  Light plans work best. You can agree to meet somewhere around a given time and then see where things go. Do not be surprised if an aquarius suddenly has a whim they wish to follow. The mention of a movie involving horseback riding, for example, may cause an aquarius to propose an impromptu trip to a nearby ranch. Be willing to follow along in these endeavors. An aquarius needs someone willing to go along for the ride. Consider going to internet cafes, readings, intellectual events, book stores, new restaurants. An aquarius will love these types of places. An aquarius loves intellectual pursuits, so a date involving all...

An area of 800 square feet (74.3224 square meters) will house the incubation room (for integrated farms), cooler, freezer, and storage space. The grow-out building holds new hatchlings, so no nursery is necessary. Typical buildings are about 5,000 square feet (464.515 m2). Different designs include concrete block, wood, or metal buildings, but all are thoroughly insulated and rest on a heated concrete foundation. Hot water pipes run through the concrete to provide a consistent temperature of 86 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit (30 to 31 degrees Celsius) in the building; electric heating coils can be used but are less common. Pools about 1 foot (0.3 m) in depth with bottoms sloping towards a drain (for easy cleaning) and decks are prepared for each pen before laying insulation board and then pouring the concrete. Pens are about 12 feet (3.7 m) long and 14 feet (4.3 m) wide; each has a deck 5 feet (1.5 m) wide for feeding and basking and a pool 9 feet (2.7 m) wide. The deck is next to the center aisle so you can feed the alligators and hose out their pens easily (and without entering the pens). A 3-foot (0.9 m) wall of concrete block separates the pen from the aisle (to prevent climbing out and escaping). Each pen can house about 160 2-foot (0.6 m) alligators or 50 4-foot (1.2 m) alligators and be divided to separate alligators under 2 feet (0.6 m) in length (0.6  m) from those over 2 feet (0.6 m); some states require this by law. Use concrete blocks to construct a wall that creates 2 pens capable of holding 80 2-foot alligators. This building uses the same plans as the first but is 7,300 square feet (678.192 m2).  Construct a third building of 10,300 square feet (956.901 m2) for their third year of growth.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Construye un edificio de utilidades. Construye un edificio no integrado para el primer año de las crías. Prepara el área del corral. Construye un segundo edificio de no integrado para el segundo año de las crías.


An attention getter draws readers into your essay. Use a shocking statistic or a hypothetical question to get the reader thinking on your subject. Make sure not to use an attention getter unrelated to the topic of your essay. Use your attention getter to help lead into your main argument. Make sure your quotes or information are accurate and not an exaggeration of the truth, or else readers will question your validity throughout the rest of your essay. After your attention getter, state the purpose of your essay so the reader knows the main topic. Keep your thesis statement in a clear and concise statement so they know exactly what stance you’re taking on the subject.  For example, “Because global warming is causing the polar ice caps to melt, we need to eliminate our reliance on fossil fuels within the next 5 years.” Or, “Since flavored tobacco appeals mainly to children and teens, it should be illegal for tobacco manufacturers to sell these products.” The thesis is usually the last or second to last sentence in your introduction. Write a sentence that briefly introduces what information you’re providing to support your thesis. This helps your reader know exactly what you’re discussing and what they should expect from the rest of your essays. Use the main topics of your body paragraphs as an idea of what to include in your mini-outline. Don’t summarize your entire essay in the introduction or provide too much background information. Save your important information for your body paragraphs. Think of your introductory paragraph as a simple lead-in for the rest of your paper.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Engancha a los lectores mediante un dato, una cita o una pregunta relevantes en la primera oración. Introduce la tesis en una oración. Proporciona una oración que constituya un esquema en miniatura de los temas que vaya a cubrir el ensayo. Mantén la introducción a entre 4 y 5 oraciones.


An attorney may notice legal issues that people who aren't trained in legal matters would not think to include or leave out. An attorney may notice that the document uses language that could been seen as ambiguous. Ambiguity can lead to legal complications. You must remove all such language before the power of attorney is executed. Even if you do not hire an attorney to look over the document, there are a few things you can do to make the document clearer. Make sure you specifically identify the powers that are being granted to the agent, when those powers will take effect, and when (if ever) those powers will cease to have an effect. This will prevent confusion. For example, instead of saying that the agent “has power over the principal's finances,” say that the agent “has the power to withdraw money and make payments from the principal's three bank accounts: bank account X, bank account Y, and bank account Z.” Financial power of attorney documents must pass the scrutiny of the applicable financial institutions. Financial institutions do not want to inadvertently accept fraudulent power of attorney documents. They usually have some requirements that must be met in order to accept the document and give the agent the powers listed. In order to make sure that your document is sufficient, show it to your bank and other financial institutions before signing it. This should ensure that they will accept it after it is signed. Some states require the agent and the principal to sign the power of attorney document in front of a notary. However, even if your state does not require notarization, it does eliminates any doubt regarding the validity of the principal's signature. Therefore, notarizing the power of attorney document reduces the chance that it will be contested in court. For more information, check out wikiHow's guide on How to Notarize a Document. A power of attorney is not filed at any governmental agency, but you must have it on hand and present it every time you use it. Keep it in a safe in your home or...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Considera la posibilidad de contratar a un abogado para que revise el documento. Presenta el poder notarial ante las instituciones financieras, en caso de ser necesario. Certifica el poder notarial por un escribano. Guarda el poder notarial.


An avian vet is a vet that specializes in birds. They will be able to identify what is wrong with your canary. They may do blood work, fecal tests, or X-rays. Not only will the vet diagnose what is wrong with your canary but they will also prescribe treatment for the canary's exact problem. If you live in the United States, you can find a local avian vet by checking the database at the Association of Avian Vets. Diseases can spread quickly among birds. If your canary lives with or near other canaries, put them in a separate, clean cage in a different room until they have healed. A sick canary may not be able to keep itself warm. Make sure the sick canary is in a warm room, ideally one that is around 90 °F (32 °C). You can also use a bird carrier or fish tank heater to keep their cage warm. Sick canaries are prone to sit on their perches all day, but if they grow weak, they can fall off and injure themselves. Make sure that you lower the perches in their cage to reduce this risk. Always keep your canary's food dish and water bowl full, even if they are not eating. You can use soft foods, like berries, to encourage them to eat.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Visita a un veterinario aviar. Ponlo en cuarentena de otros canarios. Mantén el cuarto caliente. Baja su percha. Anímalo a comer.


An eTA is not nearly as complicated as a visa. You must apply online. You need a valid email address before submitting. You'll also need a credit card and your valid passport.

An easement is a limited right of a third party to use the property, such as a neighbor’s right to use the driveway because it is the only way to reach his or her own property. Check with the County Recorder for a description of any easements on the property. The county should have a record of all easements for any property. Because liens and encumbrances give some third party an interest in the property, or limit a buyer’s interest in it, a buyer is entitled to full disclosure of such interests.  Liens and encumbrances may include mortgages or other loans where the property was used as collateral. They may also include unpaid judgments to which the property has been attached.  The full name and address of any creditors should be included. Covenants are rules affecting what an owner can and cannot do with a property, often resulting from an agreement among residents of a specific neighborhood.  For example, there may be limits on building any additional structures on the property, or on the colors a building can be painted.  Covenants are typically managed by a home owners' association in the neighborhood where the property is located. Check with the association to find out if there are any covenants the buyer needs to know about.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Haz una lista de cualquier servidumbre sobre la propiedad. Toma nota de cualquier derecho de retención o gravamen sobre la propiedad. Describe cualquier convenio que afecte el uso de la propiedad.


An easy way to do this is to drag down the notification bar from the top of the home screen and tap the gear at the top-right corner. Use this method to find out which apps are using the bulk of your Android's battery power. Once you know what apps consume the most power, you can make an effort to open those apps less (or uninstall them completely). You should see the amount of charge your Android has at the moment (and how long that charge will last). It's the three dots at the top-right corner of the screen. If you don't see this option, tap the icon of the battery instead. You'll see a list of apps on your Android and how much of your battery power that app has consumed since the last full charge.  Tap an app to see specific information about how the app uses the battery. Depending on the app, you may see the option to enable Background restriction, which ensures the app doesn't use the battery unless it's open on the screen. If you'd like to see which Android services (in addition to apps), tap the three-dot menu again and select Show full device usage.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Abre los Ajustes de tu Android. Desplázate hacia abajo y toca Batería. Toca el menú ⋮. Toca Uso de batería. Revisa cuáles son las aplicaciones que consumen más batería.


An easy way to find the app is to click the magnifying glass icon at the top-right corner of the screen and type disk utility. The app's icon looks like a hard drive with a stethoscope. It'll appear under the "External" header.  This opens a window with options for your DVD. A file containing the contents of the DVD will be created with the name you type into the "Save As" field.  This tells Disk Utility to save the ripped image to your desktop, which makes it easy to find. You can choose a different location if you'd like. This is at the bottom of the window. Disk Utility will now rip the DVD and create an image file ending with the .CDR file extension. You'll see a confirmation message once the process is complete. Eject the DVD from the drive when the ripping is complete. When the blank DVD is recognized, you'll see an icon for it on your desktop. If you saved the file to the desktop, just double-click the file ending in ".CDR" on your desktop now. This will mount the copied DVD image like a hard drive, causing a new hard drive icon to appear on your desktop. Make sure you're right-clicking the icon that looks like a hard drive, NOT the file ending in .CDR. A window will burning options will appear. The defaults should be fine, but you're welcome to change them to your desired name and speed. A progress bar will keep you updated of the burn in real-time. Once the burn is complete, you'll see a confirmation message.

An easy way to have drinks available for your guests and not have to be the bartender is to set up a drink station. You can use a side table or drink cart to place alcohol, mixers, ice, glasses, and stirrers on for guests to create their own fun party drinks.  It’s a good idea to have a small recipe books of drink ideas for your guests. They can flip through the book to find their favorite drink and then be their own bartender mixing it to perfection. Make sure you have all of the necessary ingredients for every drink in your book. Having appetizers or finger foods set out for your guests to eat at leisure is a great way to serve food at a house party. Guests will be able to eat as they get hungry throughout the night, so they will stay happy. Make the appetizers ahead of time so that you don’t spend the whole night in the kitchen cooking. Cook enough food so that you can replenish items that get eaten quickly.  Make sure you have plenty of finger foods that are like main dishes in addition to snack foods. You want to make sure your party guests stay satiated. Appetizers like meatballs, pigs in a blanket, bean dip, or chicken wings are a good idea to serve. You can make the finger food fun by serving it in a unique way. For example, serve cupcakes in plastic martini glasses or use mini pretzel sticks instead of toothpicks for appetizers. If you don’t want to worry about the food so you can enjoy your own party, you can hire a caterer to prepare and serve the food. Although this is a costly option, it will allow you to be able to join in the fun more. Another great idea is to hire a bartender to mix and serve your drinks. Having a professional bartender to serve your guests will make them feel special and allow them the opportunity to order whatever drinks they desire. If you’re having a themed party, you can match the food and drinks to the theme. You can use specific colors for your theme and only serve food and drinks that match those colors. If you’re having a time period party, consider serving food and...
