It's a whole lot easier to be arrogant about something if you're the best in the room. The less you have to do to prove your arrogance, the better off and more convincing your verbal brags will be down the road. Often, we think of arrogance as being part of competition in sports or in office environments, but it also applies to social interactions, lifestyle, relationships, and lots of other areas of life. Strive to be the best in everything you do. Train hard and devote your time to whatever craft you hope to excel in. Arrogance just comes across like ignorance if you're bragging about something you don't even fully understand, or practice. Even if people don't like you, they need to take notice when you walk into a room. Have a silent presence and aura by taking the steps necessary to control people with your body language, reflecting your high status and your value. To command people's attention without words:  Stand up straight at all times, keeping your shoulders back and your head up and at attention. Move purposefully. Don't wander around rooms, or take little half-steps toward the bar. Walk right up to it at full-stride and grab a place at the table. Smile less. If you want to communicate your superiority, try your best to remain aloof and gaze critically at others as they complete tasks. Compete regularly to keep your skills sharp and your hunger for winning large. It's much better to brag and boast about things that other people already know or have seen you do, making your boasts that much more believable. Make an effort to win things that you know you can win with your skills and your arrogant edge.  The earlier your start competing, the better. If you instill a serious competitive edge in yourself early in life, it'll carry through your adult years. Be competitive in all facets of your life. When Rafael Nadal was injured and needed to recover from competitive tennis, he started playing high-stakes poker, becoming obsessed, just to keep that arrogant edge. Arrogant people need to prove their...

Sé el mejor. Desarrolla una presencia imponente. Demuestra tus habilidades públicamente. Expón a los eslabones más débiles. Sé autosuficiente o simula serlo. Vístete como la persona que dices ser


It's absolutely vital that your cold stuff stays cold. To this end:  Use an appliance thermometer to make sure your food stays below 40ºF/4.4ºC. Food that doesn't stay cold will start to go bad within two hours. Use thermally lined/insulated picnic/lunch bags or coolers to keep foods cool. Add ice packs or ice to keep it even cooler. The food should be packed into these the moment it is removed from the refrigerator. Always allow for thorough chilling time if you're baking or cooking foods to take. If you have a vehicle/portable fridge, keep your cold foods in it until they're ready to be used. If you're bringing hot food to the tailgate party, you must keep it hot. To keep food like soup hot, take your insulated container, fill it with boiling water and let it sit for 2 minutes. Empty it and then fill the container with the piping hot food. This will keep the food steaming for several hours. Meat and poultry need to reach the correct internal temperature while grilling. So get out your food thermometer, and check the temperature before you serve:  Hamburger patties and pork need to reach at least 160ºF/71.1ºC Chicken needs to hit a smoking hot 170ºF/76.6ºC before serving Beef, lamb, and pork need to be cooked to 165ºF/73.8ºC Medium rare beef, veal, and lamb steaks need to be cooked to 145ºF/62.7ºC Poultry breast meat needs to be cooked to 170ºF/76.6ºC Dark meat needs to be cooked to 180ºF/82.2ºC All pork needs to be cooked to 160ºF/71.10C.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Mantén la comida fría bien fría. Mantén la comida caliente caliente. Haz que estas comidas estén calientes.


It's all too easy to get wrapped up in ourselves and forget that the rest of the world exists separate to us. By constantly making yours bigger and bigger, you'll have a clearer perspective on what really matters and just how good you have it. Talk to strangers. This is the easiest way to broaden your horizons, learn something, and benefit from others. You may be thinking, "That's a little creepy," but think about how much people love to be given attention. Talking to a stranger could be an exciting point in both of your days. Too often we're guilty of thinking globally. "I failed at this" gets turned into, "I'm a failure." Maybe in your world, yes, you failed at whatever you tried to do. But are you a failure? Heck no. Not even close. Nothing is all good or all bad. Nor are feelings facts. Thinking "I'm an abject failure" is guilty of both those things. There is no way you're all that bad (it's impossible) and that's a feeling that you're misconstruing. If you catch yourself thinking like that, stop. Get back on the train to the real world where you're just as good as everyone else (and you are). Thinking as such is paranoid. Most people are too busy thinking about themselves, how they come off, and the next time they'll be able to talk to worry about sabotaging you. This gives you the reins for your world. Now what are you going to do with them? The only thing that's possible is that you are out to get you. Are you your own worst critic? If so, know that it's totally common, but it's not the healthiest of habits. Try to develop self-compassion. Treat yourself like you would treat one of your friends. If someone asks for your help, do it. You may not be in the mood, you may even want to sulk a bit, but helping someone else will take your mind off your current woes -- and make you feel good about helping them. This is all about knowing you're a good person. Sometimes it's easy to forget. But when we take physical action, it becomes pretty hard to ignore. If you see an opportunity (all you have to do is keep...

It's also normal for some children to read below their grade level, and that's okay. If your child is a struggling reader, help them find books that are at their current level.  Read with them more to encourage reading, which will help their skills improve. Reading is important for language development and will be necessary as the child continues through school. Try to find books about a topic the child loves, such as sports or horses.

It's always a good idea to leave your job on the best possible terms because you never know what will happen in the future. You may one day decide to return to the company, or you may need a reference letter from your boss if you decide to looking for other employment opportunities.  Offer to help the company deal with the transition by doing some work from home or coming in for a few hours to help train your replacement. Write an outline of your job responsibilities, and be sure to include important information, such as passwords and contact information, that your replacement will need to know. Be polite and refrain from expressing any negative opinions about the company, your boss, or your coworkers. If you received healthcare benefits at work, you will have the option to enroll in COBRA. You will also need to rollover or cash out any retirement savings.  Fill out all necessary paperwork and direct questions to your human resources or personnel department. Pay attention to deadlines and costs associated with COBRA enrollment and retirement changes. Write a formal letter of resignation and deliver it to your supervisor and the human resources department. You may wish to consider giving your notice to your boss in person or over the phone before you write your formal resignation letter, especially if the two of you have a good relationship. This is much more personal and may help ease hard feelings. You may have taken files or other hard copy or electronic materials with you after your maternity leave began. Be sure to get those things back to your supervisor. Return any keys or identification badges as well. If you left anything behind, such as pictures, coffee cups, sweaters, or other items, stop at your office to get them. If you are unable to return to the office, arrange to have your belongings delivered to you. Some companies have security policies in place that will not allow former employees to return to the office.

TL;DR in Spanish:

No descartes ninguna posibilidad. Ocúpate del seguro de salud, la pensión de jubilación y otros beneficios. Haz constar tu notificación por escrito. Devuelve cualquier objeto de la compañía que tengas en tu poder. Recoge tus efectos personales de la oficina.


It's always nice to have your expectations surpassed. This is why you must plan at least one surprise that you know she wouldn't expect in a million thoughts. Some surprise ideas include:  Mail a handwritten letter and a card the day before (or in as much time ahead as needed to reach the mailbox). Postage is so romantic, simply because so few people use it to send messages now. Insert a handwritten poem as well as your dedication and letter. Show up with a cup of chocolate mousse in bed as a breakfast appetizer. Beginning the day with something sweet sets the perfect tone for the rest of the day. Text her a poem. A love sonnet is great, but lyrics to a love ballad from her favorite era works just as well. You can be more imaginative than just taking her out to dinner in the evening, you know you can. Fruit can be a sweet gift for your beloved wife in place of the usual flowers, provided it has had some effort put into it. Have a few small gifts piled up at the foot of the bed or arranged on the breakfast tray, consisting of simple joys that you know she likes. Choose things like seeds for growing flowers this coming spring, a new release from a favorite author, a watercolor paint set or vouchers for a massage at her favorite beauty parlor. Hey, you're spending a day with a wonderful woman. It's worth throwing some caution aside. Take her out to dessert, and if she can't decide between two desserts, order them both. Try to win her a stuffed animal from the arcade, or buy her a bouquet of balloons big enough to lift a small child off the ground. Take her back to her childhood for a bit of fun, just so that she feels worth it. In the morning, have her favorite breakfast with her. In the evening, rent the movie she wants to see. Sit through it and act happy; your suffering will pay off in her gratitude for your fortitude! If you buy chocolates or flowers, make sure they’re her favorite; bonus points if they're ones she rarely has because of their price and exclusivity. She will adore you if you learn the proper...

It's as simple as that! The goal is to burn more calories than you consume in a given day.  One pound equals 3,500 calories, meaning you will have to burn 3,500 calories more than you consume in order to lose one pound.  Reduce your caloric intake by cutting portion sizes. Be sure to read the labels on everything you eat so that you can keep track of your calories. Eat small meals and snacks throughout the day. This will keep your metabolism fast and prevent your body from storing extra fat. Do aerobic exercises like running, hiking, swimming and biking. These will help speed up your metabolism and burn calories. Remember that exercise burns calories, but cannot alone make you lose weight. You will absolutely have to eat less in order to lose weight. Your metabolism slows down dramatically while you sleep, so it will take longer for the food to digest. Plus, eating early on in the day will give you the energy you need to go about your daily activities. Skipping meals will force your body into starvation mode, causing it to store extra fat.  Think of your metabolism as a fire, and food as its fuel. If you want to keep the fire strong, you will have to keep adding twigs, newspaper, and logs to it. If you stop adding these things to the fire, it will eventually die out. Similarly, if you starve yourself, your metabolism will get weaker and weaker over time. It's better to eat four or five small meals throughout the day than to eat two or three large ones, because your body will have more time to digest the food. Consider eating smaller meals with snacks in between. This will keep your metabolism working throughout the day. Try these healthy snacks for in between meals: a piece of fruit like a banana or apple, a cup of Greek yogurt, a nutrition bar, some carrots and hummus or a small salad with light dressing. Did you know that the human body often confuses hunger and thirst? If you are craving food but are not actually hungry, then chances are that your body is dehydrated. You should drink a minimum of 8 cups of...

Their name should be at the top of this page. In the "Regular Hours Worked" column, type in the number of hours that the employee worked (e.g., 40) in the given pay period. If your employee used any vacation time or sick time, note the number of hours in the "Vacation Hours" or "Sick Hours" column, respectively.

The overtime rate is usually 150 percent of the employee's usual rate (hence the phrase "time and a half").

It's becoming more and more of a rat race out there. Students have to study more to succeed, workers have to work harder to climb the ladder, and the stakes are higher and higher. It's easy to get wrapped up in school and work, thinking we "have to" or "should," but that is so far from the truth. We all need time for fun or life will get us down in the dumps before we realize it. Make it a point to take a night or two off for yourself. Hang out with your friends and family. This will strengthen your connections with those around you, and help you feel happy and secure. It seems like everyone these days is doing some sort of balancing act, and most of the time it’s to their detriment. Instead of spreading yourself thin and pulling out your hair, limit what you take on. Say no when need to. Investing your time in just a few things will prove much more fruitful, make you feel productive, and keep you breathing calmly. It's okay to say no sometimes, even to favors that your friends ask. You cannot be three places at once and handle three people's problems. If you feel yourself being spread thin, take a cue from yourself and relax. It's all your body needs. Everyone goes through mood swings. If you know when you’re going to experience bad moods or feel vulnerable, you can counteract it. For some, it’s hormonal. For others, it’s an old anniversary, birthdays, or death. Accept that you’ll feel vulnerable during this time and surround yourself with others, make plans, and keep your mind off of it until it passes. Being aware of your situation is the best thing you can do for yourself. Knowing how you feel when you feel it will make any emotion easier to handle and deal with as you please. It'll be easier to talk about with others, it'll be easier to make sense of, and it'll then be easier for it to go away. If you were prescribed medication for a previous depressive episode, don't stop taking it when you feel better. In fact, it's recommended that you continue taking it for 6 months afterward to keep your body in the...

Siempre haz tiempo para la diversión. No asumas demasiadas responsabilidades. Conoce tus puntos débiles. Si estás preocupado con respecto a una recaída, no dejes de tomar tus medicamentos. Busca tratamiento a la primera señal de una recaída.


It's best if you both arrive at the date at the same time, that way you don't have to go looking for each other in a crowd. Make sure to figure out how you'll be getting to the date. If it's not in walking distance, then talk to your parents and ask them to give you a ride. Before you leave to pick them up, give them a confirmation call or text and let them know you are coming.  Taking public transit or riding your bike can also get you to the date. If it doesn't make sense to meet up before the date because you both live far away, make sure to be on time for the date. You don't want the date to feel like an interview. Don't be overly concerned with the fact that it's a date. Rather than constantly worrying about if you're acting polite enough, be yourself so your date gets to know you better, and to get to know your date better. But you should always be respectful and courteous.   Humor is a great way to lighten up a dull conversation. Try to be funny. If you are only concentrated on saying and doing the right things, then you might come off as dull and boring. Keep in mind that acting natural while you are nervous can take some practice. Try putting yourself into an uncomfortable situation and allowing yourself to get used to the feeling, such as by asking people for the time. Aim to have fun, while also learning more about each other. Don't talk about serious things too quickly. First, talk about what they like to do for fun, their favorite TV shows, musicians, or weird pet peeves.  Serious conversations about close friends and family should be reserved for once you're in a more serious relationship with them. If you want to talk about political beliefs or anything controversial, make sure it's a discussion you both are interested in. If the conversation gets boring, throw out a random question like, "If you could travel to any place in the entire world, where would it be and why?" If you notice that a topic has struck a nerve or made them feel uncomfortable, back off the topic, apologize, and talk about...

It's best to avoid soaking wooden slats in water. Instead, spray a wood cleaner or furniture polish on each individual slat. Use a clean cotton cloth or sock to rub the cleaner back and forth along the stain. Leave the cord and other accessories untouched for now to clean with water later.  If you don't have a wood-specific cleaner, you may be able to lift a stain by scrubbing it with a very small amount of plain water. Moisten the sock or cloth and be prepared to dry the wood off when you're done. Most wooden blinds are treated with a finish that resists stains, so a dry wipe with a clean cloth is often enough to polish them. Fill a bucket full of water, then stir in about 1⁄4 cup (59 mL) of white vinegar. For a stronger solution, try making a mixture consisting of equal parts water and vinegar. You could also mix in an extra 1⁄4 cup (59 mL) of a liquid dish soap instead of adding more vinegar. A mild detergent is one designed for general usage instead of cutting through tough grease. Remember to rinse off the soap with clean water when you're done scrubbing the blinds. Choose something non-abrasive, such as a piece of cotton or the soft side of a sponge. Old socks make for great scrubbers when used on tough stains. Dip the scrubber into the water to moisten it, but don't soak it or else it will drip water everywhere.  If you're using a sock, you could use it to grip the individual slats as you scrub across them. For hard to reach spots, switch to a cotton swab. Cotton buds are great for reaching into tight recesses. Scrub horizontally along the blinds, starting in the center and working out toward the edge of each stain. Press down with a light amount of pressure so you don't end up bending the slats. Also, get the pull cord, headrail, and other accessories. Heavy stains need to be treated with a deep washing. It happens sometimes even if you take great care of your blinds. Take a clean cotton cloth to the blinds right after you're done scrubbing, especially if you're working on wood. Sop up any moisture...

It's best to ensure that your Android has a constant power source during the restore process. This will also help make sure that your Android wasn't just low on power. These are the most common buttons to enter Recovery Mode for Android, but some devices use a different combination. If you're using a Samsung Galaxy device, press and hold Power + Volume Up + Home You'll see the Android mascot and a text menu appear on the screen. If your device still does not power on and display the recovery menu, and you've done everything else in this article, it may be time for a replacement. Pressing these will let you scroll through the options. The Power button selects your highlighted menu option.  This confirms the restore and begins the wiping process. All of the data will be erased during the reset. This may take 20 minutes or so to complete. Once the restore is complete, you'll be taken through the new device setup. If you log back in with your Google account, all of your Google Cloud data will be restored, such as contacts and calendar data.

It's best to get all of your piercings done at professional piercing shops. Often, piercing shops are combined with tattoo shops, but don't let that scare you. The piercers in these shops are always properly licensed and have a great deal of experience. Also, the sterilization process at these shops is much more strict than at any other piercing locations.  These piercers give piercings with sterilized needles and usually use small rings/hoops. Even if a young child wants to get their ears pierced, you can take them to a tattoo/piercing shop. These shops usually have a jewelry selection for you to choose from. They can help you choose the right earrings if you're unsure of what to get. These stores have a huge variety of earrings to choose from and usually offer free piercing with the purchase of a pair of earrings. Most of the jewelry in stores such as these tends to be lower quality, so ask for assistance in finding higher quality jewelry for your piercing.  These stores do piercings with piercing guns and usually pierce with studs. These stores and kiosks are usually found in malls and shopping centers. Medical Ear Piercing clinics are usually picked by parents when they're looking to get their children's ears pierced. The staff at these places are always professional trained and the piercing is done in a completely sterile environment.  There are a few Medical Ear Piercing clinics around the country, but these clinics are far less popular than piercing shops or piercing stores. You must book an appointment to get your ears pierced at one of these clinics.  Other doctor's offices and walk-in clinics sometimes do piercings as well.

It's best to heat a cup full at time, as any excess water will cool before you have a chance to use it. You can use your measuring cup or your mug to measure out your desired amount of water. If you boil too much water, it's best to pour out the excess water instead of reheating it. If you want more hot water, use fresh water for your next cup. You'll have a long wait ahead of you if you boil your water, as drinking it will scald your mouth. Also, your water may not taste as good, since heating can alter the taste of the water. Watch your water to make sure it doesn't boil. Don't leave it unattended! As you watch your water, wait until it starts to bubble. First, small bubbles will form along the pan and release. Wait until you see steam coming off the water, as well as larger bubbles traveling up from the bottom of the pot. This signals your water is the proper temperature. Be careful when handling the pot. Make sure you only touch it by the handle or use a potholder or tea towel. Tea kettles are designed for heating water for drinking. You may not be making tea, but you can still use a kettle to warm your water! Simply put the kettle on the stove and wait for it to whistle, which tells you the water is ready. You can even purchase a tea kettle with a built in thermometer to help you know when to turn off your burner. Since you aren't brewing tea, you can turn it off as soon as the water reaches your preferred temperature, if you have one. On average, most people prefer drinking hot beverages at about 136 °F (58 °C). If it touches your skin, steam can cause a thermal burn. It's best to avoid direct contact with the steam, either when the water is heating up or when you're pouring it into a mug. Always pour away from your body. Use a potholder or towel to protect your hand as you pour. Don't hold your hand over the steam to see if your water is warm. Similarly, don't put your face directly over the pot to check for steam and bubbles. Gently pour the water, letting it slowly flow into the mug to prevent...

TL;DR in Spanish:

It's best to introduce the pets in your home. Bringing a dog to meet a cat at an animal shelter or vice versa may be extremely traumatic, particularly for the cat. For this reason, most animal experts recommend introducing your pets at home. If you're bringing home a cat to a home that's always been a dog's home (or vice versa), chances are the dog will be more likely to chase the cat, and the cat will be more likely to antagonize and even attack the dog. If you're adopting a new pet to live at home with an existing pet, ask the staff at the shelter or adoption office whether they have any cats that will get along with dogs or dogs that will get along with cats, as the case may be. This way you know that bringing home your new pet will be more of a minor adjustment period, rather than an agonizing project. Though it may be difficult to make the introductions a relatively stress-free occasion, it's important for the wellbeing of both animals. Some basic training and reward reinforcement can go a long way towards getting your two pets acquainted.  Use treats for both the cat and dog. Choose treats that you know each animal will enjoy, though cats may be more picky. Try tuna or chunks of chicken as a desirable treat for your cat.   Train your dog, or refresh his training, on key goals like learning to stay, come on command, and "leave it". This training should be done before your bring home a cat, or before you bring the dog home to a cat, as it will be crucial in getting your dog to disengage when he begins to chase or pester your cat.  Take your dog running or let him run around a fenced-in yard before introducing the cat and dog. This will help take some of the energy out of your dog, making him less likely to chase the cat during their introduction. This should be done under strict supervision. Keep your dog on a short leash, and if he seems like he wants to chase the cat, keep both cat and dog distracted by feeding them their respective treats. It may be helpful to have a second person in the room, so that...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Escoge un lugar apropiado. Escoge una mascota nueva que se lleve bien con tu antigua mascota. Mantén el encuentro libre de tensión. Haz que ambos animales se conozcan. Acaricia y recompensa a ambos animales.


It's best to measure your cable a few times. Make sure you're sure about how much length you need. Then mark where you want to cut the armor. Place your hands on either side of the mark you made. Then push down on either side of the mark, creating a bend in the armor at the mark. As you bend the cable, the armor should pop open. You should place the saw blade on the armor where it's beginning to pop up. Then gently pull the blade back and forth across the armor until it just cuts through. Be careful not to cut through the wires. Once you've sawed through the armor on 1 side, flip the cable over. Then saw through the armor on the other side, being careful not to cut through the wires. Once you've cut completely through the armor, you'll have excess armor to the right of your cut. Slide the excess armor off, exposing the wires. Using a metal file, gently sand down the edge of the armor where you made the cut.  This will help you prevent injury when you're installing the cable or making repairs.

TL;DR in Spanish:

It's best to start with clean hands when providing a massage to someone. Scrub your hands in soap and warm water. You should spend at least 20 seconds washing your hands. Wet heat can help the person relax. You can have them take a bath, for instance. Another option is dampening a towel and heating it up in the microwave until it's warm. Wrap the person's head in it for 10 to 15 minutes. It can help to run a brush through the person's hair first so that you aren't catching your fingers on tangles. However, you can also just use your fingers to work through any big tangles before you start the massage. If you hit a tangle later, don't try to pull it out, as you'll jolt the person out of their relaxed state. Most kitchen oils will work for this purpose, as will massage oils. You can use avocado, coconut, almond, or mustard oil, to name a few. Begin on the sides. Massage the oil into the scalp with your fingers and thumbs, moving up to the top of the head. Make sure you get both the front and back of the head, as well. Warm the oil up in your hands first, and start with a small amount. You can always add more.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Lávate las manos. Comienza aplicando calor húmedo. Desenreda el cabello. Usa aceites.


It's best to weigh the puppy immediately before giving it the medication, since puppies are still growing. Once you have an accurate weight, consult the dosage chart on the medication. It's very important that the dog receive enough medicine to treat the worms, but it should never receive too much medication. If you must fill your own syringe, dip the top into the liquid medication and pull the plunger back to fill the vial with liquid. Fill it to the amount prescribed by your vet or suggested on the packaging.  If you’re giving the puppy a pill, or if the syringes come pre-filled in the packaging, you can skip this step. Check to see if the medication should be given on a full or an empty stomach. For the medication to be effective, you need to follow these guidelines. Snap your fingers, wave a toy in front of the pup’s face, or hold a treat in front of its nose to get the puppy focused on one of your hands. Puppies are highly distractible, so once you have its attention, move quickly to give the pup its deworming medication. You may find it easiest to give the dog medication while it’s sitting on your lap. You’ll be able to hold it in one place using one arm, and use the free hand to get the dog’s attention and put the medication in its mouth. Use the fingers on 1 hand to gently open the puppy’s mouth. Slip your fingers in between the puppy’s lips at the front of its mouth, and exert steady pressure to open its jaws. This should be relatively easy with the puppy distracted. Once the puppy’s mouth is open, you can place the medication inside. If you’re giving the pup liquid medication via syringe, stick the tip of the syringe at least 2 inches (5.1 cm) inside of the puppy’s mouth, and dispense the liquid. The puppy should swallow it down quickly. If you’re giving the puppy a medicated pill, set it back about 3 inches (7.6 cm)  in the dog’s mouth, so that it will swallow the pill and not spit it back up. Deworming medications are most effective if given to a pup several times. The number and frequency of...

It's called Superior because it is larger than all of the other Great Lakes combined. This gigantic lake contains 10 percent of all the world's fresh surface water. Lake Superior touches Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and Ontario, CA, and is the western-most lake of the five. A few more interesting facts:  It's home to 88 species of fish. It can produce waves as high as 40 feet tall. Some of the world's oldest rocks can be found on its shore. Lake Michigan is the only lake to be located entirely within US borders. It's the third largest lake of the group. Chicago and Milwaukee are two major cities located along the lake. In addition,  The lake is home to a metallic eel species called sea lamprey.  The Petoskey stone, a pebble-shaped coral, is located on its shores, and it's Michigan's state stone. Since in summer the water is warm enough to swim in, Lake Michigan is sometimes referred to as the United States' third coast. This lake has the longest shoreline of all the great lakes. By surface area, it is the second largest great lake and the fifth-largest lake in the world. It is home to 30,000 islands. Also of note:  More than 1,000 shipwrecks have taken place there. It is named for the Wyandot Indians, or Huron, who used to live there. The surrounding areas are remote and sparsely populated. Lake Erie has the greatest temperature fluctuations of all the great lakes; it's the warmest in the summer, but it freezes over the most often in winter. Many major cities sit along the shore, including Buffalo, NY; Toledo, Ohio; Cleveland, Ohio; and Erie, PA. The lake's main outlet is Niagara Falls. In addition,  The lake played a significant role in the war of 1812. It has it's own legendary lake monster, named Bessie. It's home to the Erie Canal, one of the gateways to the west. Lake Ontario is the smallest and easternmost lake of the bunch. It lies right at the base of Niagara Falls.

It's common to feel a scratchiness or discomfort in your eye after you have removed the offending object. If you continue to feel discomfort for more than a day after removing the object, consult a physician. There are many precautionary measures to protect eye during the recovery process. These include:  Alerting and informing an eye care professional if new symptoms arise or if pain becomes unbearable Following the advice of your eye care professional, if you consulted one Protecting eyes from ultraviolet  light or bright light  by wearing sunglasses when outdoors Avoiding the use of contact lenses until your eye has healed Avoiding hand exposure to eye area and washing hands before touching eye area Taking all prescribed  medication as advised by your physician (he may prescribe an NSAID for the pain or antibiotics if you wear contacts, as this can make you susceptible to infection) If the situation gets better, no further action is necessary. If the situation gets worse, see an eye-care professional. Here are the signs to be on the lookout for after removing an item from your eye::  Blurred or double vision Pain that continues or increases Blood that covers part of the iris (or colored part of the eye) Sensitivity to light Other signs of infection such as discharge, redness, sores around the eye, or a fever

It's crucial to talk to your doctor (possibly an allergist) if you suspect you have a food allergy.  They will be able to guide you on what's appropriate as far as diet, diagnostic tests and treatment.  Tell your doctor about your symptoms. While a food allergy can cause some of the same symptoms an intolerance or sensitivity, other symptoms include: rash, hives, itchy skin, shortness of breath, chest pain, or even a sudden drop in blood pressure. A food allergy usually comes on suddenly after exposure and can be life-threatening.  Never start a restrictive or elimination diet prior to talking to your doctor or a allergy certified registered dietitian. Do not eat any foods that you think could cause life threatening allergic responses unless under the care of a physician. If symptoms do not resolve after eliminating the suspected offending food, go back to the doctor for further evaluation. Logging all your meals, snacks and beverages along with any symptoms you may experience can help you figure out what type of sensitivity you have and to what food. It will be difficult to determine what food is causing you symptoms without a journal.  It might be wise to do your journal by hand.  Start with a notebook and jot down everything you consume (including any supplements or medications) and symptoms you experience.  Many food journaling apps are not detailed enough for what you should be tracking. Make sure to note the time you ate and the time you experience symptoms (if at all).  Typical food sensitivities symptoms may include:  nausea, vomiting, upset stomach, diarrhea, stomach cramping and gas. Also include the serving size of the foods you consume.  For example, some individuals have an extreme lactose intolerance (meaning they cannot tolerate any lactose), but others may have a mild lactose intolerance (and can tolerate small doses of lactose). By logging how much you eat, you can gauge the amount of your body will tolerate without adverse symptoms. To help you decide what food is giving you trouble, you...

It's difficult to calm your imagination and your mind if you are going until you try to fall asleep. Keeping your body and mind active before bed makes it nearly impossible to shut it off so you can sleep. To help this, establish a pre-sleep routine. This helps wind your body down so that it and your mind is relaxed when you finally crawl into bed. Plus, routine helps your body know what's coming when you do those activities or when it's that time of day. Start your routine at least 30 minutes you plan on falling asleep. Try reading, doing light stretches or yoga, listening to relaxing music, or watching some light, calming television.

It's difficult to get to know antisocial people. The more you make it clear to the people in your life that you're a nut that can't be cracked, the easier it will be to spend time alone, because people will eventually stop trying to get to know you. Maintain an emotional distance from the people around you.  Used closed body-language when you're in public to communicate that you don't want to be approached or engaged. Cross your arms, avoid eye-contact, and keep like you're focused on something else. Don't volunteer information about yourself, if it isn't necessary. Be vague about who you are, what you do, and where you come from. If people ask you questions about your personal life, change the subject. When you are around people, in public, one of the best ways to communicate your desire to be alone is to be silent. Don't say anything at all, unless it's absolutely necessary, and even then try to limit your speech to the bare minimum of communication. Be like a Clint Eastwood character. Let your stare do the talking, then answer in monosyllables. It's unlikely that you'll be able to ever be truly solitary, but that doesn't mean you have to be a social butterfly. To keep your contacts as limited and controlled as possible, try to keep things one-on-one, as much as possible.  Don't have birthday parties for yourself, spend time with a close friend, hanging out at home, or having dinner. If you're invited to a party, make contact with the host and tell them you can't come, but invite them for a one-on-one hang-out, if necessary. If you choose to date, make sure to be honest with people. If you're dating someone who likes to hang out with people on a regular basis, that might be a deal-breaker for both of you. try to make sure there's as little web record of you as possible. Cancel or suspend your social networking accounts for the time being, and delete them if you're serious about this antisocial thing.  Make your other online accounts as various and randomized as possible, to keep yourself anonymous. Don't...

It's difficult to tell how long food has been out unless you ask, but there are ways to avoid eating food that has potentially gone bad. Often, it's a good idea to avoid foods that are sitting out in large vats. Foods that are in large vats are more likely to have been there for longer than other foods. Also, if the food appears to be discolored, a different texture than usual, or has an unusual smell, it is best to move on to another dish.  Tell a staff member if you think any food has gone bad. You can ask how long a food has been out if you are unsure. It's tempting to take a huge portion of the lasagna that looks delicious, but avoid this. Take a small portion of every food. It's even okay to get unhealthy foods you wouldn't normally eat as long as you take a small amount. If you decide you want more, you can always go back. Buffets often offer foods like toast and scrambled eggs. While these are tasty, look for healthy options you wouldn't normally cook for yourself so that the meal feels like a treat. For example, choose the smoked salmon or grilled trout if you don't normally make it at home. It's okay to have some starchy foods, but these foods are usually unhealthy and will fill you up quickly. Starchy foods are foods like potatoes, rice, and pasta. Take a small portion of these foods. It's tempting to continue going back for food at a buffet simply because it's there. Avoid this temptation. Stop eating as soon as you feel full.  Sit facing away from the buffet. This is thought to help you take fewer trips to the serving station. Skipping the tray will help you avoid overeating because you can not take as much food during one trip. If it's your splurge meal, it's okay to go for a piece of cake or ice cream. But, if you want to stay healthy, choose a dessert that isn't so loaded in calories. Frozen yogurt or a bowl of fresh fruit would be a good idea.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Ten cuidado con el tiempo que los alimentos han estado fuera. Sírvete porciones pequeñas. Elige alimentos que tú no cocinas. Evita comer demasiados alimentos almidonados. No comas en exceso. Elige yogur o fruta helados como postre.


It's easy to get locked into a serious tool collection. If you're the kind of person with three of the exact same screwdriver, just in case you lose one or someone needs an extra, it can make organization a challenge. Separating extras from your primary use tools, though, is a good way of clearing up the mess and making your workspace a lot more manageable. Hang some pegboard in your workshop and hang either hooks, for easy-to-hang tools, or hang little baskets for things like screws and other smaller items. Keep them visible, but out of the way on the board. In general, it's a good idea to invest in a few little storage trays at the hardware store to keep things like screws, nails, and other tiny fasteners you might not want to part with. It's great to have that stuff on hand if and when you need it, but finding a place for it is a challenge. Alternatively, save old milk jugs, coffee cans, and other little containers for keeping screws and other fasteners in. Make sure you mark them clearly. If you keep them small enough, you can even pop them into your portable box when you need them for a job. Imagine your grandfather's coming to visit tomorrow and will want to look through your toolbox. Avoid the lecture and always remember to put your tools away clean. If they work for you, work to take care of them. Use a rag to wipe oil and grime off of tools, then place them in their assigned places. You don't have to scrub them, but cleaning them up a bit will keep your tools from rusting and losing life. When you're done using a wrench, don't just toss it on the ground to worry about later. Put it away if you're done using it. It's easier to clean up as you go along rather than trying to clean up a big mess at the end of the day. That's when it gets tempting to just throw a wrench wherever, toss a file in with the screwdrivers, and start making a mess. Don't let yourself recreate the mess you got rid of. Head it off at the pass.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Cuelga las herramientas que tengas repetidas en un tablero de clavijas. Compra bandejas de organización para colocar piezas o herramientas sueltas. Limpia las herramientas después de utilizarlas. Coloca las herramientas en su sitio inmediatamente después de utilizarlas.


It's easy to get really frustrated and take it out of your kids, making punishments much harsher than is perhaps appropriate. Avoid this by setting priorities, deciding ahead of time which behaviors get punished most harshly and which only result in a time-out. Hitting and biting, as well as anything which could cause them serious injury are usually worthy of the more serious punishments, but you will have to decide what is best for you. Do not threaten your child with a punishment and then not deliver. This teaches your child not to take you or the possibility of consequences seriously. It is better not to react at all than to threaten and then not do anything. Don't feel bad for you child partway into a punishment and then relent. It can be hard, because you love them and you want them to be happy, but it is important for them to fully experience the punishment and not come to expect that they can manipulate your emotions into getting them out of trouble. Negotiating is the quick route to a habitually misbehaving and disobedient child. Just don't. They get what you give them or they get nothing. They'll learn eventually. Be strong. Small children will not be able to understand subtleties so try to create a consistent environment by keeping rules the same across basic situations. It is also a good idea to show them that there is a place and time for certain behaviors, so that they don't feel flat-out banned. For example, establish that it is okay to yell but only outside. Try not to add modifiers to rules such as these, since it only confuses them. Wait until they reach around age 4 before adding conditions.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Establece prioridades. Evita las amenazas en vano. Prepárate para los castigos. No negocies. Establece tiempos específicos para diferentes comportamientos.


It's easy to get swept up in the painful experience of being underestimated, but the best way to prove your critics wrong is to focus on what you want to achieve. Instead of obsessing over what someone says, use the anger or sadness as motivation to work that much harder on pursuing your interests and responsibilities. Avoid taking it so personally that it negatively affects your performance. Focus on your own life instead, putting her critique on the back-burner. Putting your attention toward positive goals and dreams can help you be more creative and open to new ideas, which will help you prove wrong anyone who underestimates you. One of the biggest challenges to being successful is figuring out how to set goals that are actually achievable. Often, we set goals that are, instead, unachievable. Many New Year's resolutions fall under this category, such as going to the gym every day or never making another mistake at your job. Aiming high like this can actually cause you to fall flat, because when you do fail to reach the bar, you'll likely get frustrated and give up. Setting smaller, more concrete goals can help you make progress without focusing so much on perfection.  Set concrete goals such as "walk 1 mile (1.6 km)" or "try to make fewer than 3 mistakes on the job per day." Goals like these will help you feel the satisfaction of achievement while also working toward bigger things. Reward yourself when you meet a goal. This is especially important for activities that don't involve their own immediate reward, such as writing and publishing an essay or work of fiction. Many goals have delayed rewards, which means that you might not associate them with the positive feelings you receive later on. Reward yourself immediately by having some chocolate, seeing a movie, or hanging out with friends. Sometimes it's best to focus on improving your weaknesses rather than on making gains in areas where you’re already competent. If someone has identified something you could legitimately improve on, take this seriously...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Céntrate en tus objetivos. Procura que tus objetivos sean razonables. Trabaja duro en áreas difíciles. Reconoce y rechaza los pensamientos negativos. Mantén tu compromiso.


It's easy to ignore or deny your fears, even to yourself. But courage can't come into play unless you have a fear to face down. By owning your feelings you've taken the first step toward gaining control over the situation.  Name your fear. Sometimes fear makes itself known immediately, clearly, and other times it’s more difficult to name those anxious feelings lurking in the back of your mind. Let your fear rise to the surface and give it a name. It may be concrete (like a fear of cats) or situational (like a fear of being called on in class). Don’t judge your fears. Acknowledge what comes up with no attachment to “good” or “bad.” Is it something obvious, like the sight of a snake on a trail? Maybe passing your career counselor's office door sends your mind into a downward spiral when you walk down the corridor in your high school. Figure out everything that triggers your fear. The more you can understand your fear, the better. Does your fear cause you to stay in bed instead of getting up and going to a class you're afraid of failing? Do you avoid visiting your family in another state because you don't want to get on a plane? Figure out exactly what power your fear has over your mind and behavior. Now that you better understand your fear, think about what exactly you want to change. Think about yourself experiencing life without your fear. How do you feel?  For example:  If your fear is commitment, imagine yourself happily with a partner. If your fear is heights, imagine yourself conquering a tough hike. Connect with the feeling of accomplishment. If your fear is spiders, imagine yourself seeing a spider and feeling neutral.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Reconoce tus miedos específicos. Comprende tus detonantes. Cuestiona el poder que el miedo tiene sobre ti. Imagina el resultado que deseas.


It's easy to keep the fantasy of some kind of relationship alive with the idea of staying friends. You may be able to be friends in the long run, but it's best to focus on yourself for a while and allow your feelings to die down before trying to have any kind of friendship with your ex. Trying to stay in contact can make the breakup worse if you aren't really over him or if he still has residual feelings for you.  It may also be really hard to see him with the new girl. Protect yourself from that emotional pain by keeping your distance, at least for a little while. Avoid interacting or seeing him on social media and avoid texting or calling. You may also want to get rid of anything that reminds you of him such as photos or gifts. Breakups are painful but sometimes necessary. Trying to get back together will only extend the grieving process, and if he's with someone new, it'll likely just be you trying to repair the relationship, which puts you in a bad position where it's easy to continue getting hurt. If he tries to keep something going while talking to the new girl, avoid this messy situation. Show him and everyone around you that you have the maturity to maintain a clean break, even if he doesn't. Try to take the higher road and avoid gossiping about what he did. You may feel like you need to vent, but this can create problems if you have mutual friends. Framing situations positively is better for your own mental health than venting in a negative way.  Try to understand his position. He may be doing what he thinks is best for his life. If he wasn't interested in trying to salvage your relationship, then either way, it's the best case scenario long-term for you to have broken up. If someone asks about the breakup, you can say "It's been a difficult experience for me, but I wish him the best regardless." You may not like it, and you don't have to, but try to understand that the decision has been made and the best thing for you to do is move on, as painful as that can be. Even if you invested a lot of time...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Mantente lejos de él. Resiste la necesidad de volver con él. Habla positivamente de él. Respeta su decisión. Déjala fuera del problema.


It's easy to sink a ton of time during your day into checking your email. This is a common problem especially in office settings. Because of this, it's a good idea to try to change your habits to reduce the amount of time you spend dealing with your email. Set limits, giving yourself only two or three short periods during the day, when you are "allowed" to check your email.  For example, check your email at 9 am, 1:30 pm, and 5:00 pm, and spend no more than 10 minutes going through your messages at those times. If you are a business owner or manager, you can set these rules for your staff in order to help productivity, too. One bad habit that many people have is replying to an email just to be polite. They treat it like a conversation but what it really does is create more email for everyone. Don't feel compelled to reply to an email using responses like "have a good day" or "thanks". Generally, you should only reply to acknowledge that you got a message if it's important that the other person knows you got it. For example, if someone sends you some paperwork, it's better to respond by returning the filled paperwork or with a message saying when they can expect the papers back. Emails are designed for quick, one off messages. The sort of thing where you need to exchange no more than two or three messages to complete your conversation. If you need to send many messages, or have more of a conversation, then meeting in person or talking over the phone will save both of you time and significantly reduce the number of emails you need to check. If you want to help reduce how much time you spend with your email and also reduce the amount of email that other people have to read, try setting a limit for the number of messages you can send in a day. This will make you think a bit more about how important the message is and if it really needs to be sent.  For example, if you know that you need to send a message to your boss later, you might be less inclined to email everyone about your daughter's canned food drive. If...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Establécete momentos específicos para revisar el correo electrónico. Evita enviar correos electrónicos de “cortesía”. Trata de comunicarte por otros medios cuando puedas. Limita el número de mensajes que se te permita enviar en un día.


It's estimated that these ships destroy hundreds of yards of delicate coral every year, which provide habitat and shelter for dolphins and other marine life.Even if you're a big fan of dolphins and would like to see them up close, sea-themed parks and aquatic swim-with-dolphins programs serve to keep dolphins in captivity, where they experience significantly shorter life spans. Improper physical contact with dolphins can transfer diseases, making dolphins susceptible to fungal infections and a host of other problems. It's much safer to leave them alone where they can live peacefully and happily. One of the most dangerous threats to dolphin populations is commercial fishing, and the nets the fishermen use. If you eat seafood, it's important to make careful and intelligent seafood purchases. There are only so many fish in the sea, and many commercial fishing operations do more harm than good, while others harvest fish responsibly and sustainably. So how can you be sure you know where your salmon, tuna, or shrimp are coming from? Seafood Watch publishes a free annual watch list, tracking the practices and the fishing statistics in the given you, allowing you to make up-to-date decisions and buy the safest seafood. The tuna fishing industry is the culprit most often blamed for dolphin deaths, and "dolphin-safe" tuna is a label you can often find at grocery stores. That's an easy way to make a simple change, but the problem is much larger than just tuna. Make sure you stay informed and learn everything you can about the operation. . Human waste is the number one contributing factor to the degradation of life in the oceans, with 80% of marine pollution originating on land. The impact is enormous, and even something as simple as releasing a helium balloon into the sky can end up contributing the garbage that chokes the dolphin population out. Take steps now to reduce your non-biodegradable garbage.  It doesn't need to be complicated. Take little steps by avoiding plastic coffee cups when you go to the coffee shop,...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Deja en paz a los delfines. Infórmate antes de comprar comida marítima. Boicotea los productos hechos de espuma de poliestireno y aquellos que no sean biodegradables. Reduce tu huella de carbono Lucha contra el cambio climático global.


It's funny because, often, the smallest things find a way to nourish a relationship. Ask yourself, what can I do to make my partner even happier? It doesn't have to be earth-shattering to be effective. It's the thought behind it, and the emotion in it, that's the real gift:  Work on having a better relationship with your in-laws. Few things are more important for your partner than you having a relationship with their parents. You probably don't see your in-laws every day, but that undersells the importance of the goal: ultimately, they want you to love them like you love your parents. Does your spouse really care about charity? Invest in a microloan in their name, and give it to them as a present. They are now the proud beneficiary of someone else's opportunity. Do things around the house that they normally don't enjoy. If your spouse hates doing the dishes, for example, make them a little "get out dishes free" card, good for a week without dish-duty. It might seem weird, but being open with your spouse is indeed a sign of affection: it shows them that you trust them and, more importantly, that you enjoy being intimate with them emotionally. Being open will reassure them that you're taking that step for them. Why did you marry them in the first place? Express to them why you love and how they make you feel everyday. Do this often. It will lead to good habits, promote more love and affection in your marriage, and reduce amounts of stress.  Write a short handwritten letter. Put it underneath their pillow; as you kiss them goodbye in the morning, tell them to check underneath the pillow. The note could say something like: "Every day I'm with you, I learn even more about how impossibly lucky I am. I love you."  Come up behind them when they know that you're in the same room and give them a heartfelt kiss on the neck while wrapping your arms around them. It'll make their heart melt. Make your own romantic fortune cookie. Find a way to slip a personalized fortune into a fortune cookie your spouse breaks open. Have...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Encuentra maneras de hacerla sentir bien. Mantente abierto. Muéstrale que la amas. Apóyala. Pon al hombre de nuevo en el romance.


It's going to hurt him more if you break up with your boyfriend remotely. Never text dump a boyfriend unless you want to cause him more pain. That's the worst possible way to go about it.   Dumping your boyfriend by telephone, Skype, FaceTime, over social media, or by email are also cold approaches you shouldn't use. You wouldn't like it if someone did that to you, so don't do it to them. When you dump your boyfriend to his face, you can show compassion and care. Dumping your boyfriend electronically is too remote and shows disrespect. Also, it's easy to misread the tone of an email or text, so he might read things into your words that aren't there. If you really can't handle telling him to his face, or it's just not possible, choose to write him a heartfelt and detailed letter. Don't type it, either. You are trying to show compassion. He will feel less pain if you make him feel like he did matter to you, but it just didn't work. Ghosting is a term that's become popular recently with some celebrity breakups. When people ghost someone else, they dump them without explanation. They just vanish.  Ghosting is cruel. It makes people feel disrespected and confused. It's the breakup method most guaranteed to cause him pain so, even if it's hard, face your fears and just level with him. He won't be able to find closure as quickly if you ghost him, which means he's going to stick around a lot longer, trying to contact you and reaching out to figure out what's going on. So if you really want to break up with him, ghosting won't get him out of your life as quickly. Sometimes people try to let people down so easily that they end up leading them on. This isn't very nice. It will confuse him and give him false hope.  Don't contact him after you dump him, and don't let him draw you into endless discussions about it. Be final. Be short and firm. Don't say things like "I just need some space" because it will give him false hope. If there is truly none, you need to stand firm and not confuse him.   Don't tell him you love him...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Déjalo en persona. No recurras al método “fantasma”. No le des falsas esperanzas. Sé reservada.


It's great to go into the situation with a reflexology chart. If you forget any of the pressure points on the ears, you can quickly consult your chart. If possible, bring a reflexology chart into the room where you'll be doing ear reflexology. If you don't have an ear reflexology chart, you can print one from the internet. You should do reflexology in a quiet room where you will not be disturbed. Find a comfortable chair or couch. Sit upright in a comfortable position to do ear reflexology. Start with the lobes. Gently press your lobes between your index finger and thumb. Pull them down gently as you press them. Do only a gentle tug. Stop pulling if you feel pain. You do not want to perform reflexology on any sore areas of your ears. Trace your fingers along your ears. Notice any sore or sensitive areas, or any scratches or abrasions. Leave these areas alone while doing reflexology. Reflexology should reduce, not increase, pain and discomfort.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Ten un gráfico de reflexología a la mano, de ser posible. Ponte en la posición correcta. Prepárate para palpar tus orejas. Revisa las áreas sensibles.


It's great to tell people you care about them and be a good listener, but as the saying goes, actions speak louder than words. If you want to show someone you care, do something nice for him or her. Some examples of things you can do to show caring include:  Cooking someone a meal, or buying one at a restaurant.  Giving a gift (even a very small one). Making or buying them a card, even if there's no special occasion to buy a card for. Doing a chore like taking out the trash or washing their car, especially if it's a chore you know she or he particularly dislikes. Giving a hug.  Think creatively! There are lots of ways to show you care. Remember that for many people, surprises are especially nice. There are many ways you can act like you care for someone who is important in your life. Caring acts will be most effective when you are being sincere, not just acting. Doing something nice for someone may not communicate caring if you do it just to appease or placate him or her. When you interact with others, be aware of your emotions and make sure the things you say and do come from a genuinely caring place. Keep in mind that the actions or words that might make you feel cared for may not communicate caring to someone else. Learning what makes your friends and loved ones feel good will help you express your caring.  For example, you might enjoy being gently teased by someone you care about. Maybe your girlfriend or boyfriend has a pet name for you like "goon" or "doofus" that makes you both laugh. Keep in mind that some people find any kind of teasing hurtful. Maybe there's a movie that really cheers you up that you watch with a close friend when you feel sad. That may work well for you, but showing up to your brother's house with a copy of the film after he's lost his job may seem weird or insensitive to him, rather than an act of caring. When you tell someone you are going to do something, do it. Be reliable and trustworthy.  This is especially important when it comes to promises. For example, imagine you've told...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Toma medidas. Sé sincero. Considera lo que le gusta a la otra persona. Cumple tus promesas. Apoya a los demás.


It's green with a white X on it. If you haven't already downloaded it, you'll need to do so from the App Store (iPhone) or the Google Play Store (Android). It's at the bottom of the screen. You'll do this in the field below the "Sign In" text. This button is below the email address entry field.  It's below the password entry field. You'll see this option in the top-left corner of the screen. It's in the middle of the drop-down menu. You should see this option near the top of the page, just below the "Search" section.  It's in the bottom-right corner of the screen. Doing so will add your code to your Xbox LIVE account; the next time you sign into your Xbox One, you should see the repercussions of your code there. For example, if you added months to your LIVE subscription or you purchased DLC for a game, you'll be able to make immediate use of the code-related material (in the case of DLC, this may entail downloading it first).

It's hard enough to blow ordinary smoke rings in an area with a breeze or a fan blowing, let alone more complicated shapes. Practice in a room with all the doors and windows closed, without any people or pets walking through it. Some people find it easier to blow smoke rings (or other shapes) with their head tilted downward, at roughly a 45º angle. This might be because this motion tightens the throat, making it easier to release a small, quick ball of air through. You only need to release a tiny amount of air to form a smoke ring with the "cough" method, and you don't need to breathe at all if you're using your tongue or flicking your cheek. If you're making smoke clouds instead of rings or hearts, you are probably exhaling without realizing it. Concentrate on your breathing first, until you can release a tiny puff of smoke, then focus on your mouth shape. Before you try blowing hearts, practice blowing smoke rings until you succeed on about half of your attempts or more. You'll probably need quite a bit of practice to go from there to blowing hearts, so having a good grasp of the basics will save time in the long run.

TL;DR in Spanish:

Practica en un área sin viento. Inclina la cabeza hacia abajo. No soples más de lo necesario. Primero practica hacer aros simples.


It's hard to enjoy reading a book when your mind is busy with other thoughts and worries. Before you begin reading, take a minute to clear your mind.  Sit in a comfortable position for about a minute. Try to clear your mind of troublesome thoughts. Take a few deep breaths and, if necessary, close your eyes.  It may help to imagine a relaxing scenario. Picture yourself on a beach with friends, for example. Time yourself. Give yourself 60 seconds to zone out before you begin reading. If you frequently read when you're distracted, this can prevent you from enjoying the book. Your mind will be focused on your cellphone or computer. You may get irritated that your reading is taking your attention away from these things. Before reading, turn off your phone and computer. Go to a quiet place in your home, like your bedroom, and simply spend some time alone with your book. Part of the reason many people dislike reading books for school is the pressure to read by a deadline. While deadlines are unavoidable in school, there are ways to work around them. Instead of plowing through 50 pages in the course of 3 hours, read in short intervals. Take breaks in between.  You'll have to do some planning to make this work. If you put off required reading until the last minute, this might be tricky. Be aware of deadlines ahead of time by reviewing the syllabus. Then, see how much you need to read each day to make the deadline. Read in 50 minute intervals. Take 10 minute breaks in between. Do not try to read for more than a couple of hours each day. This could lead to boredom or frustration with the text.  You may enjoy the book if you're able to engage with it in a less stressful manner. You may pay more attention to the plot of a book as well as its characters if you read in short intervals. This can help you develop an interest in the text, allowing you to read it without boredom. If reading feels like a burden or an obligation, it will be less enjoyable. Instead of setting aside time to read each day, try to read during dull...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Despeja tu mente por un momento antes de leer. Elimina las distracciones. Lee en intervalos cortos. Dedica un tiempo para leer durante los momentos de aburrimiento. Considera usar un lector electrónico.


It's hard to get over someone or forget them if you're still talking to them or even if you're still just friends on social media. Unfriend the person on all your social media accounts. Let the person know you need a long break from them, even if you want to be friends in the future.  You could say, "Even though I would like to be on friendly terms in the future, I'm having a hard time right now. I need to step away from our friendship." If you must see the person, try to be friendly without moving into friendship. For instance, say hello if you pass them in the hall or make polite chitchat about logistics if you're sharing kids. However, leave it at that and don't try to go deeper. Don't dwell on the thought that you might get back together. That only makes you hope and fantasize about the person. Instead, focus on letting go of the relationship, reminding yourself that it's over when you need to. Tell yourself, "We broke up for a reason, and I deserve to move on with someone new." Get all your feelings out on paper. Tell your ex how they hurt you. Write down the good memories and the bad, and just use the time to get out some of your emotions. The letter is for you; there's no need to send it. When you have text or messages from your ex, you're likely to go back and read them, dwelling in the past. Go through all of your accounts, and delete all messages, so you won't be tempted. If you're afraid you might want the memories later, try saving them on an external hard drive and give it to a friend. Then you can't take it out at will to remember. Remove the photos from the walls and your picture albums. Delete any photos you have on your phone or computer, as well as any on your social media accounts. You don't need those reminders around. Once again, if you can't quite let go, put them on an external hard drive along with any hard copies you have and ask a friend to hold them for a while. Sometimes, you just need to cleanse your mind of the other person. One way to do that is to gather up items you have...

TL;DR in Spanish:

Elimina todo tipo de contacto. Descarta la posibilidad de que puedas recuperarla. Escríbele una carta, pero no se la envíes. Elimina sus correos electrónicos y mensajes de texto y de voz. Descuelga o elimina todas las fotos que tengas con la persona en cuestión. Haz un ritual para quemar los recordatorios.
