First, read the English article below.

When teaching math, you will be teaching one new concept at a time. For example, you might be teaching students how to do multiplication. Therefore, begin by introducing the topic of multiplication. Give them examples of how they will use multiplication in their daily lives, even when they are out of school.  It may be useful, when you are trying to explain the importance of a math concept, to include a demonstration. For example, if you are teaching division, and you want to demonstrate how they will use it in their daily lives, you could bring a batch of cookies (make sure you have a number that is divisible by the number of students. If you have 12 students, bring at least 24 or 36 cookies, so that it will be easy for them to understand). Tell the students you have brought cookies, but you don’t know how many each student should get. Ask them to help you think of ways to figure it out, and then introduce the concept of division. Watch for opportunities in your everyday life to point out the usefulness of math. For example, you might share with your student how you use math at the grocery store to estimate the cost of weighed fruits or vegetables, or you might show them that you use math while adjusting a recipe. You can begin by explaining a broad mathematical principle to the student, but then break it down into the smallest steps possible. This will help the student understand why you are doing it the way you are doing it, and therefore, will help them learn and remember how to do it on their own. For example, you might begin by showing a student that 2x3=6 but then show them exactly how you came to that conclusion. You can explain that this problem is actually asking you to add up 2+2+2. Ask them to add those numbers up so that they can see that multiplication is just a shorter way of asking you to add one number a certain number of times. Often in math, teachers explain how to do something, but not why it is done that way. This may be fine for some students, but for most, it is difficult to grasp...

When the ball is secure, immediately transfer it to your throwing hand. If you used your throwing hand to trap the ball, you can simply grasp the ball using the right grip to quickly throw it. If you fielded the ball with your glove stretched to one side or if you caught it backhanded, bring your glove to your throwing hand and grab the ball.  Practice getting a good grip on the ball. Without looking, practice quickly gripping the ball by the seams. Developing this reflex means your throw will more likely be on-target and easy to catch. The ball transfer should be done deliberately and quickly. There's still room for fumbling after you've successfully fielded the ball, so the transfer needs to be practiced just as much. Work on your ball transfer. Practice transferring your ball from your glove to your throwing hand. In the dugout when there's nothing to do, or anytime you have a ball handy, practice. Now it's time to quickly get in position to throw the ball. Rise up and step forward with your throwing foot, then with your non-throwing foot, then again with your throwing foot as you throw the ball. Doing these steps quickly results in a quick sequence that looks like skipping. It allows you to get your body in the right position to make an effective throw. After the flurry of fielding the ball, make sure you stay focused enough to make a good throw. A wild throw will completely negate your good fielding efforts. Throw a solid line drive to the appropriate fielder to make a good play.  You can also practice throwing from a crouched position, for times when you don't have enough time to rise and do a proper through. In other cases you may need to toss or flick the ball to another fielder.

When the body is properly hydrated, blood pumps through the veins more readily, making those veins larger and easier to see. It’s harder to locate a vein on a person who is dehydrated. If you suspect that the person is dehydrated, ask them to drink 2 to 3 glasses of water before you deliver the injection.  Juice, tea, or decaf coffee can also help to rehydrate the person. If the person is severely dehydrated, they may require intravenous fluids. Continue to look for a vein if they’re unable to drink fluids. The veins in this area of the arm are the safest to inject into and they are usually easier to find here as well. Ask the person if they have a preference about which arm you inject into. Then, look at the person’s arm to see if you can spot a vein. If not, you may need to bring it to the surface.  When delivering frequent injections, alternate arms every other day to prevent the veins from collapsing. Use extreme caution if you're injecting into the hands or feet. The veins here are often easier to find, but they are also more fragile and can collapse easily. Injecting into these areas can also be quite painful. If the person is diabetic, don't inject into their feet because it's too risky. Wrap an elastic tourniquet 2 to 4 in (5.1 to 10.2 cm) above the injection site. Use a loose overhand knot or simply tuck the tourniquet ends into the band to secure it. For injections delivered to the inner elbow, make sure that the tourniquet is tied above the mound of the bicep and not over the bicep itself.  The tourniquet must be easy to remove. Never use a belt or other stiff piece of fabric as this will distort the shape of the veins.  If the vein is difficult to see, consider tying the tourniquet over the shoulder to help squeeze blood into the arm. You can also give the person a stress ball and ask them to squeeze it and release it several times. Watch to see if the vein becomes more visible after about 30 to 60 seconds of this. Once you find a vein, place one finger over it. Use this finger to gently press up...

When the chicks are at least two months old or have grown their wing feathers, they will be ready to move outside to their larger coop. Ready-made coops can be purchased from farm supply stores, or you can build your own. A coop should provide shelter from inclement weather, protection from predators, and a cozy place to sleep. Make sure it has the following features:  An elevated, enclosed roost. The coop should have a place for the hens to sleep comfortably several feet from the ground. Chickens naturally prefer to roost off of the ground when they sleep, since this protects them from predators. Nesting boxes. In the roosting area, make sure each chicken has a separate box about 10 inches wide in which to lay its eggs. Line the boxes with straw or wood shavings. Larger nesting boxes can fit more than one chicken. Space for the chickens to run. Chickens are happiest when they have space to run around and forage. The coop should have a door leading to an outside area that's at least four by eight feet for three to five chickens. The chickens will be safest if the area is fenced on both sides an overhead (to protect from hawks). The holes in the fencing should be no larger than 1 inch squared. Now that the chickens are over two months old, start buying "laying mash" (also called "poultry pellet") so they have the nutrients they need to lay eggs. It's available at the farm supply store. You can feed older chickens organic kitchen leftovers, fruits and vegetables, and garden weeds as well. Put the feed in a chicken feeder that you clean out once every week and a half.  Chickens like raw fruit and vegetables of all kinds, cooked pasta, cooked rice, cooked beans, and any other type of grain. Don't feed them food that's high in fat or salt. Put a bowl of sand or finely crushed eggshells in the coop. The chickens use it to digest their food, since they don't have teeth to grind it up. Eggshells also provide extra calcium. Provide water in a chicken waterer. In the winter, you may need to use a heated waterer to...

When the controlling person is around your friends and supporters, watch out. The controlling person will often try to cause trouble between you and your friends, spreading rumors, attempting to create divisions (divide and conquer) and will even tell lies (exaggerations to be kinder) about you to them or about them to you, to try to break your attachment to them.  The ultimate aim is to isolate you from others so that they can have you all to themselves, inside the reality they're trying to weave for you. Stay alert; any attempt to remove or downgrade your friends or supporters from your life is a red flag.  Controlling people are often unreasonably jealous. This is more than just not liking it if another person makes eyes at you. A controlling person will often act like they own you and have the right to determine who you spend time with, what you do, where you go, and when you come home. This is not cute or a sign of their affection for you: it’s controlling. Controlling people often do not have close friends, and rarely are friends with others who are more attractive, intelligent, or well-liked than themselves. They tend to be jealous of popular, successful people, and will criticize those held in high-regard by others. A lack of close friends may be one additional sign of their inability to tolerate others and their need to control relationships tightly. Relationships and friendships are not built on who is in control. They are mutual interactions based on shared give and take and always seeking balance. A controlling person tends to keep up social and legal connections through any means necessary, including threats of litigation, divorce, manipulating marriage, roommate tenancy contracts, shared cell phone plans, misuse of shared credit and similar contracts. Even in social networks, one may block and unblock a person rather than delete the connection, as another attempt to control a difficult or failed relationship. This is because controlling, abusive people are desperate for power. Suspect excessive...

When the cravings kick in, it may be hard to remember why you wanted to quit vaping in the first place. Create a list of every reason why you want to quit. Look at this for inspiration if quitting gets tough. Some reasons you may want to quit include:  Vaping is not proven to be safe. Most e-cigarettes still contain nicotine, and the vapor contains chemical additives that may cause damage your lungs.  Vaping is an expensive habit. Quitting vaping would help you save money and allow you to pursue other interests in life. The addiction to nicotine and the routine of vaping can control your life by forcing you to vape as soon as cravings kick in. By quitting, you can take control back. If you are a parent, quitting can be beneficial to your child’s health and also help you model healthy behavior for them. Certain activities can cause you to crave e-cigarettes after you quit. Make a list of when and where you usually vape. These will likely become your triggers once you quit.  If you always vape after waking up, plan a new activity to do in the morning, such as yoga or taking a walk. You might also have an extra cup of coffee in the morning. If you vape in the car while driving, keep gum or hard candy in the car to use instead. You can also try carpooling to work to avoid the urge. If you vape socially at bars or parties, replace these activities with other social activities. For instance, go to the movies with your friend or plan a trip to the local rock climbing center. If boredom makes you vape, get a new hobby. You might learn how to cross-stitch or join a soccer team. Explain that you want to stop vaping and that you would appreciate their support throughout the process. Warn them that you may be irritable during the nicotine withdrawal phase.  You might say, “I’ve made a decision that I want to stop vaping. It is an expensive and unhealthy habit. I know that I might be grouchy for a few weeks, but it would mean so much to me if you would stick with me and help me quit.” If any of your friends smoke or vape,...

When the esophagus is inflamed or irritated, food moving through the esophagus to the stomach will increase this pain. Sometimes the esophagus is inflamed enough that swallowing becomes difficult, since the food has limited space to pass. When the acid reflux from the stomach goes up the esophagus to the vocal cords, it can cause hoarseness and a sore throat. Although these are common signs of Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) as well, when associated with esophagitis, they are usually accompanied with difficult or painful swallowing. Heartburn is a common symptom of esophagitis when it is related to reflux. When acid leaves the stomach and enters the esophagus, it will cause a burning sensation because the cells of the esophagus were not designed to withstand an acidic environment. If you have eosinophilic esophagitis, there is a buildup of white cells called (eosinophils) in the esophagus and stomach. The white cells produce a protein which causes inflammation in your throat and can lead to scarring narrowing and formation of excessive fibrous tissue in the lining of your esophagus.  An allergic response might also induce stomach pain and nausea and/or vomiting.  This can occur at almost any age, and happens more commonly in Caucasian men. As a result to the inflammation, you may have difficulty swallowing food. The esophagus can narrow to the point that food cannot pass through and becomes impacted. This is a medical emergency and requires the immediate care of a surgeon.

When the jasmine rice is finished cooking, turn off the rice cooker. However, you shouldn’t remove the rice from the appliance. Instead, let it rest in the cooker for 10 to 15 minutes. Make sure to leave the lid on the cooker while the rice is resting. Once the rice has rested for several minutes, use a wooden spatula to mix the rice up a bit. That will help remove any lingering moisture and give the rice a fluffier texture. After you’ve fluffed the jasmine rice, use the spatula to carefully put it in a bowl. Serve the rice while it’s still warm as a side to your favorite meat main course.

When the lights are low, it's easier to believe that a monster with a chainsaw could come up from behind and surprise you. With the lights on, you can take a break from looking at the screen and look at the lint on the carpet or watch your cat scratching his post. Tell your friends you'd like to watch the movie with a few lights turned on. This little trick can be done in a theater or at home, and it instantly takes away the movie's power. So, you're watching a disgustingly creepy scene where a clown monster chases a little girl up some stairs? Picture a group of people with cameras capturing it all on film. It's not so scary when you realize that behind every single scene is an entire crew of people: camera operators, lighting operators, other actors, and so on. Picture the director telling the actors what to do. "Run up two stairs, look behind you, scream, then keep running. More feeling this time." It'll help the scenes lose  their potency. Yell at the screen when things get too scary. If you've ever watched a horror movie in a theater, you've probably noticed people doing this. "She's opening the door. She's going in! No, don't go in there!" There seems to be a universal agreement that it's OK to talk during horror movies. If you're in a home setting with some die-hard fans, you may annoy them, but that's the price they should have to pay for making you watch a horror movie. Horror movies are often pretty hilarious. Aliens pop out of people's stomachs, hideous trolls end up fighting each other instead of killing their prey, and so on. Spot the comedic moments, which are sometimes the scariest, and laugh out loud. After all, the point of watching a movie is to be entertained.

When the meanie is bullying you, speak up and speak clearly. Look them in the eye and tell them “Stop!” Bullies are often looking for a weak target with little resistance. Sometimes all you’ll need is a simple “no” to get them away from you. If you’re afraid to do this on your own, ask a buddy to stand with you. They don’t need to say anything, but can help give you courage to tell the bully to leave you around. Try acting like the bully is being stupid. When they tease you, laugh and shake your head. Act as if they are being so immature, you can’t help but giggle at them. The laughter may catch them off guard and stop them from being mean. It will rarely take a big group of people to stop a bully. Often, if one or two friends tell the meanie to stop, they will. Suggest to your friends they tell the bully they are being “mean and immature”, or that the meanie is “acting dumb.” If the bully sees people calling them out on their bad behaviour, they are less likely to repeat it at all, especially towards you. You should always stand up for someone who is being bullied, no matter who it is. Even if you see someone who is mean to you get picked on, you should stand up for them. By being nice and respectful to everyone, people will be less likely to pick on you, and more likely to stand up for you if you are bullied.

When the moment is right, ask your parents if they are available to talk. You should take advantage of a quiet and private area. Try sitting down instead of standing, as the conversation may take a while. Approach your parents confidently and seriously. Don’t act silly or upset. Your parents will be more likely to react positively if you display the right behavior. Get straight to the point. Don’t build up the conversation by trying to pad the situation in your favour. For example, you can say something like "I got a bad grade," or "I'm very sorry, but I didn't do very well on a quiz/test/exam.” Don't make excuses. It might seem easier to be dishonest about your grade, or make excuses about it. Dishonesty and excuses will not benefit you because they do not change your grade. Your parents will appreciate and acknowledge the fact that you were straight and honest with them. There is a difference between excuses and legitimate reasons for a bad grade. Differentiate the two. An excuse is, “My teacher made the test too hard.” A reason is “I didn’t understand the material.” Be direct with a simple statement at first, but your parents will probably want an explanation. Stay honest when you explain to them what happened. If you didn’t study, tell them. If you tried your best, but still failed, tell them.  Something you could say is “I had a hard time understanding the material,” or “I didn’t study for the test, which led to me doing poorly on it.” Be honest with yourself about why you made a bad grade. Don’t convince that it wasn’t your fault if it was. If accurate, tell them about how you know you should have studied more. That will show them that you've learned from your mistake. Lay out the plan you've made, and tell them how you plan to improve in the future. Show them comments from your teacher, your study plan, or tell them how you will avoid distractions.  Tell your parents that you will make effort to do things like set up a meeting with your teacher, turn off your phone and television while studying, and...

When the person is giving you the criticism, make sure that you listen very well and show that you are listening. Maintain eye contact and nod your head now and then to show that you are listening. It may be hard to do this, but it is in your best interest. If you don’t listen you might not respond in the correct manner, which may lead to more criticism. Even if the advice or criticism is bad, it's still important to hear this person out. If they only send a note, you can "listen" at your own pace. After your critic has finished talking, it is a good idea to restate their criticism back to them so that you both understand what is needed. In other words, you want to eliminate the possibility of a more criticism due to a misunderstanding. You don’t need to repeat what your critic just said word-for-word, just summarize it.  For example, imagine you have just been criticized because you filed some documents incorrectly and it caused some problems for your coworkers. You might rephrase this to the critic as something like, “What I understood from what you just said is that I need to be more careful when I file documents so that my coworkers can effectively do their jobs. Is that right?” If you didn’t understand the criticism, ask them to explain or repeat something that was unclear to you. Say something like, “I want to make sure that I fully understand so that I can fix the problem. Can you please explain what you mean in a different way?” Some types of criticism might be too harsh or complicated to respond to right away. If possible, wait until you are calm, collected, and can have some time to think about the criticism before replying. Sometimes you need to respond to criticism right away, but it is better if you can give it time. Having time to come up with a mature response will lead to the best outcome. Say something like, "I appreciate your feedback. Let me take another look at the paper and I'll see what I can do. Can I send you a message tomorrow morning to get your advice on some changes?"

When the refrigerator and freezer have had sufficient time to air out, return the drawers, shelves, and racks to their original positions. Plug the appliance back in and let it cool down. Most refrigerators will need about six hours before they're at the correct operating temperature, and up to 24 hours before they're ready for food. An odor absorber will help remove any traces of fish smell that may still be lingering. Place the odor absorber in the fridge as soon as you turn it back on. Close the doors and leave the odor-absorber inside for 24 hours before replacing the food. Odor-absorbers you can use include:  Baking soda sprinkled on two large plates. Place one plate in the fridge and one in the freezer. Two bowls filled with fresh coffee grounds. Place a bowl in the fridge and in the freezer. Newspaper sheets crumpled up and stuffed into the open spaces of the fridge and freezer. Bowls filled with lighter-fluid free charcoal. Place one bowl in the fridge and one in the freezer. After 24 hours, pull the odor absorber out of the refrigerator and freezer. Return the food you’ve had stored to the fridge. Once the fridge is organized, you can put a bowl or plate of baking soda or coffee grounds back into the fridge. If you continue to use baking soda or coffee grounds as odor absorbers in the fridge, replace the odor absorber with a fresh batch every month. There are a few ways you can keep your fridge clean and odor-free, and one of the most important is to clean spills immediately. You should also use foods before they go bad, and throw out foods as soon as they start to go off. Another important element in fighting fridge odors is storing foods properly:  Store leftovers in airtight containers Transfer open foods like fish and meat to airtight containers or sealable bags Make sure all lids are secured properly Seal freezer bags and other bags properly before storing them

When the temperature climbs higher than that, bacteria start spreading on the turkey. You have about 2 hours to start cooking the turkey once it surpasses 40 °F (4 °C). To avoid any risk, throw away any turkeys kept unrefrigerated for longer periods of time. Bacteria will start growing on the turkey as soon as it reaches 40 °F (4 °C). Even if the turkey is in its original packaging and you put it back in the refrigerator, the bacteria will still be present. The “use by” or “sell by” date indicates how long a fresh, store-bought turkey lasts when refrigerated. Look for the date on the turkey’s plastic packaging. Turkeys last approximately 2 days after the printed date.  The date shows how long you can safely refrigerate the turkey. These turkeys are often preserved and kept extra cold by the manufacturer and grocery store, so they last longer. The use or sell by dates are valid as long as you keep the turkey sealed in its original packaging. Freeze the turkey if you don’t plan on cooking it before it expires. A turkey is safe in the refrigerator until it fully thaws. After that, it stays fresh for a few extra days as long as it is still in its original packaging. Use the turkey before it turns slimy or begins smelling like rotten eggs, signs that it has spoiled. The same rules apply to turkey portions and ground turkey. They spoil about 2 days after thawing. The coldest part of the refrigerator is typically the back end of the lowest shelf. Set the turkey on a baking tray to catch any juices escaping from the packaging. The pan keeps the refrigerator clean, preventing the spread of germs. Another good place to store a turkey is the meat drawer if your refrigerator has one.

When the temperature rises above 60℉, female chiggers lay their eggs in clusters. Newly hatched chiggers do not stray far from each other, but remain congregated in damp, dark areas, such as high grass, brush piles, and shady areas. As a result, large numbers of chigger larvae may be present in one area, but not another. Instead of treating your entire property for chiggers, you may wish to spot treat. There are two methods of identifying chigger hot spots on your property:  Place pieces of black cardboard vertically in your yard. If mites are present in the area, they will climb to the top of the cardboard. Examine the cardboard for chigger larvae with a magnifying glass. Retrieve a white sheet and a piece of dry ice. Spread out the sheet and set the dry ice in the center. The carbon dioxide from the dry ice will attract any nearby mites. Examine the dry ice for chigger larvae with a magnifying glass. When you closely examine the cardboard or dry ice, your risk of getting chigger bites will increase. Also, these methods will attract all nearby mites, not just chiggers. In order to eliminate chiggers from your outdoor environment, you must eliminate their prefered habitats: dark, damp locations that offer them protection from the elements.  Mow your yard frequently to keep your grass short and free of weeds—chigger larvae hide in tall grassy areas. Prune your trees and bushes to reduce shade cover in your yard—chigger larvae cannot survive in direct sunlight. Remove briars, wood piles, and brush piles from your property. To reduce or eliminate the chigger population on your property, treat your yard with insecticides. You may either use natural or chemical products:  Diatomaceous earth, the fossilized remains of diatoms, is a natural chigger repellant.

When the time comes to begin their essay, many writers forget that there's no rule that says that you have to write the beginning of the essay first. In fact, it's acceptable to start anywhere in the essay that suits your purpose, including in the middle and the end, so long as you eventually stitch the entire essay together. If you're unsure of how to start or don't even know exactly what your essay is about yet, try skipping the beginning for the time being. You'll eventually need to write it, but once you've written the rest of your essay, you may have a much firmer grasp of your topic. Start your essay with the part that feels easiest to write. You can write the rest of the essay later. Sometimes, even the best writers run out of ideas. If you're having a hard time even getting started with your introduction, try brainstorming. Get a fresh sheet of paper and write down ideas as they come to you in a rapid-fire fashion. These don't necessarily have to be good ideas — sometimes, seeing ideas that you definitely shouldn't use can inspire you to think up ideas that you definitely should use. You may also want to try a related exercise called free-form writing. When free-form writing, you begin writing anything — absolutely anything — and keep writing sentences in a stream-of-consciousness fashion to get your juices flowing. The end result doesn't have to make sense. If there's a tiny kernel of inspiration in your ramblings, you'll have benefited. First drafts that can't be improved in some way by editing and reviewing are rare to nonexistent. A good writer knows never to turn in a piece of writing without going over it at least once or twice. Reviewing and revising allows you to spot spelling and grammar errors, fix portions of your writing that are unclear, omit unnecessary information, and much more. This is especially important for the very beginning of your essay, where otherwise minor errors can reflect negatively upon your the entire work, so be sure to give your essay's beginning a thorough revision....

When the time signature reads 4/4, each measure has 4 beats and the quarter note is worth 1 beat. This means that the whole note is worth 4 beats, the half note is worth 2 beats, the eighth note is worth 1/2 beat, and the sixteenth note is worth 1/4 beat.  If the measure had 4 quarter notes, you would count the measure as “1, 2, 3, 4.” If the measure had 1 quarter note followed by 6 eighth notes, you would count the measure as “1, 2-&, 3-&, 4-&.” “&” represents a 1/2 beat. When the time signature reads 2/2, each measure receives 2 beats and the half note is worth 1 beat. This means that the whole note is worth 2 beats, the quarter note is worth 1/2 beat, the eighth note is worth 1/4 beat, and the sixteenth note is worth 1/8 beat.  If the measure had 2 half notes, you would count the measure as “1, 2.” If the measure had 4 quarter notes, you would count the measure as “1-&, 2-&.” “&” represents a 1/2 beat. If the measure had 4 sixteenth notes followed by 1 half note, you would count the measure as “1-e-&-a, 2.” “e-&-a” represents a 1/4 beat. When the time signature reads 6/8, each measure receives 6 beats and the eighth note is worth 1 beat. This means that the whole note is worth 4 beats, the half note is worth 4 beats, the quarter note is worth 2 beats, and the sixteenth note is worth 1/2 beat.  If the measure had 6 eighth notes, you would count the measure as “1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.” If the measure had 3 quarter notes, you would count the measure as “1-2, 3-4, 5-6.”. If the measure had 4 sixteenth notes followed by 1 half note, you would count the measure as “1-&, 2-&, 3-4-5-6.” “&” represents a 1/2 beat.

When the trip is over, the driver will tell you how much you owe. Calculate the tip as a percentage of this fare, or "eyeball" the amount by rounding up to the nearest $5 or $10 bill increment. Most cabs feature a fare ticker which allows you to watch the price of the ride rise as you approach your destination. If you're in a hurry, you can use this to predict, calculate, and prepare your tip before it's time to get out of the cab. 10-15% of the overall fare is usually fine. If the bill is less than $10, feel free to give a 10% tip, but do not tip less than $1. If the bill is more than $10, give at least a 15% tip. Any percentage-based tip will be a rough representation of the duration and quality of the ride, made slightly arbitrary for the sake of convenience. Try to choose the tip percentage that best fits the situation.  If the driver did an exceptional job, consider tipping them 20% or more. Perhaps you had a great conversation, or they gave you useful advice about sightseeing in the city, or they worked hard to get you to your destination on time despite an awful traffic backup.  The credit card machines inside some cabs suggest default tip percentages between which you can choose. In New York, for instance, cabs offer three default tip levels: 20%, 25%, and 30%. Feel free to choose any of these options or to choose your own amount. Add $1 per bag if you have five bags or fewer. Add $2 per bag if you have five bags or more, or if your bags are extremely heavy. Remember that these are not hard, fast rules – these are guidelines within which you will work on a case-by-case basis. If the amount is close to an even amount, just give the driver an even bill and tell him/her to "keep the change". For instance: $17.28 is close to $20, and $2.72 is slightly more than 15% of $17.28. You don't need to calculate the exact tip percentage as long as you give the cab driver a reasonable amount. This strategy is useful if you find yourself in a hurry. From the cab driver's perspective, a $20 bill may be easier to...

When the vacuum cleaner is not in use, place it where your pet can easily see it. Being around the vacuum while it is not making noise should help your pet view the cleaner as something other than a threat. Make sure the vacuum is as close to the ground as possible. Adjust the upright section of the vacuum so that it is lying on the ground or is as close to the ground as possible. Reducing the overall height of the vacuum may make it seem less imposing to a pet. Move the cleaner to where the pet is sitting while it is turned off and allow the animal to look at and smell it. Pets go by scent as well as sight. Once they get used to seeing and smelling the vacuum, they should naturally be less afraid.  Never place the vacuum cleaner where your animal likes to sleep or eat. This might only work to make them afraid of those areas, causing further problems. If you have a cat that you are trying to acclimate to a vacuum, never place the vacuum by its litter box. Try placing a towel or sheet the animal uses on the vacuum cleaner while it is turned off. Your pet may want to get closer to the vacuum because it smells familiar or because it has something the animal wants on top of it. When the vacuum is lying on the ground in the off position, try placing a treat on top of it and see whether or not your pet tries to retrieve the treat. Animals will become much more steadfast in their resolve when a treat is involved. Animals can be quite territorial when it comes to their favorite toys. Take a toy you know your pet loves and place on the vacuum cleaner while it is off. Over time, the animal may come to associate the vacuum cleaner with one of its play things. Now that your pet has had the chance to investigate the vacuum while off, try turning the vacuum on. Your pet will probably run away because of the noise, but it might keep looking at the vacuum from a distance, showing more curiosity than fear. While the vacuum is on and making noise, leave it in one place. If it is not moving, but still making noise, your pet may...

When the weather is cold and there is snow or ice on the ground, contact with the frozen ground can injure your dog's paws. Limit your dog's time outside if the temperature is below freezing, so that its paws don't get damaged and the dog doesn't get too cold.  If your dog's paws are in contact with the freezing ground too long they could get frostbite, or the pads of their paws could become brittle and crack. Don't stand in the same spot for too long — it's better to stay constantly moving, even if you're just walking around in circles. A good rule to follow is not to keep your dog outside longer than you would stay outside. If you have taken the dog outside and you are ready to come in from the cold, so should your dog. Don't leave your dog in a kennel that's resting on frozen ground or its paws could freeze. Some dogs are better adept at dealing with the cold. If you have a small dog that has little body fat or thin fur, such as a chihuahua, then it should not spend much time outside in freezing conditions at all. If you have a husky with a thick coat, then it can spend a lot of time outside without any problems to its paws.  A young, healthy dog is also more likely to thrive in cold weather than a very old dog. Take your dog's physical condition into consideration when taking it out in cold weather. The paws of dogs bred to live in cold temperatures are different from other dog paws. The blood in their paws is rewarmed faster and the pads themselves are made of more cold-resistant tissue. Once you have brought your dog in from the cold, be sure to remove any ice, snow, or water that has accumulated on its paws. This will help keep the paws healthy and will minimize the chance of frostbite or raw skin.  Be sure to check between the toes for ice and snow. Sometimes ice balls can form between a dog's toes. If you notice your dog limping during the walk, make sure there aren't ice balls stuck to its paws. Wiping down the paws can also remove some of the salt and chemicals that can accumulate on the surface of...

When the white opens to e4, move the pawn that’s in front of your king 1 space forward to e6. That way, your bishop is free to get out of the back row later on in the game and you’re defending the d5 center square so your opponent won’t put pieces on it. Your opponent will try to control more of the center by moving their queen’s pawn to d4. Move the pawn that’s in front of your queen 2 spaces forward so it’s in front of your opponent’s pawn. You now have control over a center square and have the opportunity to capture the pawn on e4 if you want.  Your opponent will want to protect their pawn, so they will move it forward to e5. The pawn on e6 will defend the pawn you just moved so other pieces are less likely to attack it. Take the pawn that’s on c7 and thrust it forward 2 spaces so it lands on c5. Now you have put your opponent’s pawn on d4 at risk and have a large defensive wall on the queen’s side of the board so it’s harder for the white pieces to attack. Your opponent will typically develop their king’s knight to f3 to defend the pawn you put at risk. Take the knight you have at b8 and move it to c6 so it’s behind your pawns. From this position, you can capture either of your opponent’s pawns at the center of the board. While you only have your pawn in the middle squares, your knight puts pressure on the other squares there. As an additional level of protection, your opponent will move their pawn at c2 to c3 to defend the center squares. There are many moves you can make after you move your knight, but one of the strongest you can make is moving your queen to b6. Your queen then puts pressure on the pawn at b2 and acts as another layer of protection for your pawn at c5. Don’t capture the pawn at b2 during your next turn since your opponent could easily remove your queen with their bishop.

When they do start to open up to you about deeper things going on in their lives, remember to listen lovingly and without judgement. At the same time, don’t expect them to tell you everything. Respect their space, privacy, and independence and trust that you can have a strong relationship without knowing every aspect of their lives. Express your willingness to listen by saying something like “David, I want you to know that I love you unconditionally and am always here to support and listen to any problems you might be having. Even if you know I won’t like what you’re saying, I want you to know I’m here to listen without judgement.” Whether it’s a conversation about school, relationships, politics, or the weather, talking with your children is an important part of being a cool mom. Talking to your children is not always easy, particularly at the difficult ages, such as during the teen years. However, making an effort to communicate and listen to your children’s thoughts, feelings, and opinions will have a last impact on your relationship with him or her and your status as a cool mom. Ask your children questions. For example “What was the best part about school today?” or “How did it make you feel when Jan didn’t invite your other friends to her birthday party?” or “Does it make you upset when your boyfriend is late to pick you up for a date?” are ways to get a conversation started. Once the conversation is started, you might get more insight into your children’s feelings and opinions than you thought possible. Particularly if your children approach you with an important or sensitive issue, they deserve all of your attention. For example, it is really important that in our technological age, you put your phone down when talking to your children Show them that they are your first priority.  Turn off the radio or the television. It is difficult to give someone your full attention if there are other distractions around you. Don’t interrupt.

When they first push up shoots, add a little well-balanced fertilizer. Lilies are fairly hardy, and don't require a lot of fertilizer. In fact, too much nitrogen can result in weak stems, and in hot, wet climates can also result in bulb rot.  For optimal results, choose a high-potassium liquid fertilizer. Apply this every two weeks from early spring until 6 weeks after the plant flowers.  Fertilize when first sprouting, and again about a month later. Lilies generally don't need a lot of water, so only water if required.  Asiatic lilies, Trumpets, and Orienpets flourish in hot, dry climates, as long as they have enough water up to flowering time. Orientals need watering during the summer, as they do not blossom until August. Adding mulch in the summer helps keep the bulbs cool, and so lowers the need for additional watering. During winter months, cover the lily bed with straw or evergreen boughs to protect the bulbs from freezing. During the flowering season, trim the spent blooms, keeping at least 2/3s of the stem intact to keep your strong and healthy for years to come.

When trying to have a serious conversation with your partner, it is a good idea to have time set aside where you won’t be interrupted by phone calls, TV shows, or other people. Thus, it is a good time to ask your partner when they have time for such a conversation. Some people feel nervous when their partner requests time for a conversation. Reassure your partner that you aren’t planning to break up with them (assuming that is the case), and that you hope the conversation will be a positive one. Tell your partner what your long-term goals are when it comes to relationships.This refers to what you have dreamt of in a relationship with the right person, not with your current partner specifically.  For example, whether or not you see yourself getting married, whether or not you want to have kids, what kind of home you see yourself living in (e.g. a large mansion or a small apartment in the city), whether you see yourself working or being a stay-at-home-mom (or dad). If you’re afraid that your partner might just agree with your goals in order to avoid conflict, try asking them to tell you about their long-term goals first. Be as honest as you possibly can, even if it means you disagree. If you don’t want the same things, one person shouldn’t be forced into a life they don’t want. If it turns out you don’t want the same things in the long-term, remember that this doesn’t mean you absolutely must end the relationship immediately. If your goals are still along way off (e.g. you are both in high school or college, and have a lot of other things you want to do before getting married and having kids) and you enjoy spending time with each other, then you might wish to consider remaining in the relationship for the time being. However, it should be clear between both partners that no one is expected to change in order to remain in the relationship. Relatedly, if you have differing goals, you should not remain in the relationship because you hope that the other person will change. Although it is possible that they will,...

Make a schedule for the week. Write down what sort of tasks you are willing to do what you think those tasks are worth. Then, you and your parents can negotiate your allowance.  Your parents need to agree to pay you for chores. If your parents expect you to help out anyway, try coming up with ideas that go beyond the standard list of chores. Offer to clean out the basement, do all the yard work, etc. Certain outdoor projects can take up a lot of time your parents may not have. Offering to complete these chores may be another way to earn money.  Offer to mow your lawn, rake leaves, shovel snow, and weed gardens, only if you are capable to do so. If you already provide this kind of service to the neighborhood, explain to your parents that you are trying to expand you client base. And that you will treat your house like any of your clients'.

When unpleasant thoughts and feelings come to you, name them. When you notice that you are distressed, ask "why am I feeling bad all of a sudden?" Then look for triggers, such as being bombarded by ads, being blown off by friends, or being hungry or tired. Finally, name the feeling. Recognize visits from the "I'm ugly!" feeling, or the "I should lose weight" feeling, or the "only beautiful people can ever be happy" feeling.  You don't have to fight these feelings. Just name them and let them go. If they won't leave, tell them to go. "Only-beautiful-people-can-ever-be-happy feeling, leave. I'm tired, and you always show up when I'm tired. However, I'm about to rest and I need you to not bother me with your nonsense." Love yourself before you try to change anything. Accept your looks and accept your feelings. If you try to change or "fix" yourself without first thinking about your human value, you may not make good progress.  Ask yourself "do I deserve happiness? Do I matter, just as I am?" If you can say yes to these things, you are on the right track. When other people insult you or try to fix you, shut them down or ignore them. When someone insults you, that means something is going on with them. Nobody who is happy, healthy, or secure bothers to insult other people. Instead of insulting back or getting upset, shut the interaction down succinctly. Say something like "grow up," or "deal with yourself."  Don't insult yourself by taking the insult seriously, but do let yourself feel as upset as you want. Just remind yourself that you are upset because someone was unkind, and was trying to trigger your insecurities. Name how you feel. Get rid of "friends" who try to make you feel bad about yourself. Keep friends who are supportive and kind. Try not to be offended if someone offers you beauty advice. Instead, you might consider making friends with someone who seems to know a lot about hair styling, makeup, and other beauty topics. You might enjoy learning about these things and possibly even gain more confidence...

When waxing the skin on your face, it's very important to use a wax kit that's specifically designed for removing facial hair.  This is because the skin on your face is extra sensitive and can easily become irritated if the wrong type of wax is used. Men should use a facial wax designed for coarser hair, as their facial hair is thicker and more difficult to remove than women's. . Waxing your upper lip is a relatively easy process, similar to other types of waxing. It is one of the most common areas for women (and men) to wax at home.  If you like, you can use wax strips that will remove upper lip hair without the need for hot wax -- these are relatively cheap, but not as effective as they don't grab onto the hair as well. Just follow the directions on the packaging to use. If you're opting to use regular wax, use a cream rather than a honey wax, as these are less sticky and easier to control than honey waxes. Wash your upper lip area (and remove any traces of make-up) and dry thoroughly. Apply the warm wax onto one half of your upper lip, tracing carefully along the lip line. Pressing your tongue against your upper lip can help to extend the skin and make the job easier. Make sure to apply the wax in the direction of the hair growth. Place the cloth strip over the wax, stroking it on in the direction of the hair growth. Wait ten seconds for the wax to cool slightly, then stick your upper lip between your teeth to pull the skin taut (this is important). Grasp the edge of the strip and quickly pull off the wax strip. Remember to pull your hand across rather than straight up. Press your hand against the waxed area for a few seconds to help with the pain. Repeat the process on the other side of your lip, then use a tweezers to clean up any stray hairs. . Waxing your own eyebrows at home is a little trick and usually not recommended for beginners -- this is due to the fact that you are working with hot in the sensitive eye area. In addition, the results are potentially disastrous if you take off half an eyebrow!...

When we are rejected, we may try to ignore our feelings to avoid feeling the pain. Instead of trying to ignore how you are feeling, allow yourself to feel bad for a little while. If you have been hurt badly and you feel like you need to cry, go ahead. Acknowledging your feelings will help you to move on and cope with the rejection.  Take time to identify the reason why you feel left out, how it makes you feel, why it makes you feel that way. For example, “I feel left because my friends went to a party without me over the weekend. I feel betrayed and sad because it makes me think that they don’t really like me.”  Try writing about how you feel in a journal. If you don’t like to write, drawing or playing music to reflect how you feel may also help you to acknowledge your feelings and deal with them. Telling a supportive friend or family member may help you feel better and help you express your emotions. It may also help to reassure you that even though your friends made you feel left out and unwanted, people do care about you. If you decide to talk to someone, make sure to choose someone who is supportive and who will listen to you. Choosing someone who will brush off your feelings or who will not offer good support may make you feel worse. Another very important means for dealing with situations in which you feel left out by your friends is to tell them how you feel and ask them about their reasons for leaving you out. Let them know that you felt left out by explaining what the occasion was and why you wished they had asked you along or stayed with you at an event. And it's also important to ask your friends politely why the situation occurred as it did. Don't assume they are to blame for leaving you out. Just ask considerate questions that can lead to a fruitful dialog. You might say something like:  "I felt really sad when you guys went rollerblading last Saturday and didn't ask me along too. I know I was tired Friday night but I was up for doing things on Saturday and it wasn't until X told me you guys were...

When we breathe moment to moment, we don't think about it. But when we start singing, we start realizing that we have to ration it to get through the measures and sometimes we end up inadvertently holding it at certain pitches. Don't do this. Breathe fully and deeply into the bottom of your lungs and keep the air flowing. If you stop it, you either won't make a noise or you won't be in falsetto. Always, always, always let go. Of everything. Loosen up, shake it out, and relax. Being tense and listening to your voice as it comes out of your mouth will only result in you holding your breath and not producing the best sound you're capable of. A lot of singing is actually in the mind – you are your only obstacle. Plenty of people avoid their falsetto (or even head voice at times) because it sounds weak. It doesn't have that oomph that the chest voice does. This is normal. This can be a very good sound – you just have to get used to hearing it. Take a look at Broadway in the recent decades as compared to in the earlier parts of the 20th century and you'll see a huge movement toward belting, using chest voice. No voice is better than the other – but they do go in and out of style. Every singer has a break (the passaggio), if not more than one. In futzing around with your different types of "voices," you'll likely crack. Until you get super comfortable with the way your vocal folds are stretching and vibrating together, this is going to happen. Relax. Singing over your break is something that takes practice and diligence for many. With time and usage you can strengthen weaker areas of your vocal folds and correct old habits that have you jumping from one voice to the other and never bridging the two. You know that little bit of your throat that moves up and down when you swallow? You can actually control that. Try it right now – take a look in the mirror and get your Adam's apple area to move downward. Can you keep it there while you sing?

When we live in a place for months or years, we stop seeing it as extraordinary or exciting. Reinvigorate your passion for your local area by playing tourist for the day. Visit museums, parks, and art galleries in your area. Take pictures and try to experience these locations as a tourist would. Try a restaurant you've never gone to, or order a new choice from the menu at your favorite place. Experience your life from an outsider's perspective - you just might rediscover what you love about it. When you think of meditation, you might envision work rather than play. Although it requires quiet and concentration, meditation can be a fun activity for you. In fact, it allows you to connect with your inner self and your outer environment, meaning you can become more conscious of all the outlets for fun around you. To make meditation fun, seek out a partner who can do the activity with you. Change up your environment, which can prove challenging and exciting. You can also find guided meditations with interesting sounds and prompts. If the voice inside your head is constantly complaining or criticizing, it can be hard to enjoy life. Overcome negative self-talk to invite more positive vibes into your days. To stop negative self-talk, follow this four-step process.  Pay more attention to your thoughts. Decide if your thoughts are helpful or unhelpful (i.e. do they improve or worsen your situation)? Stop negative thinking in its tracks. Choose not to engage or entertain negative thoughts. Transform negative self-talk into positive thoughts. For example, "I will never have time to spend with my friends because of all these assignments" can be positively reframed to "If I work really hard on these assignments and avoid putting them off, I can take a break halfway through and hang out with my friends". Being thankful can help you see more activities as enjoyable rather than unsatisfying. There are many ways you can demonstrate gratitude, such as expressing thanks and starting a gratitude journal. However, one of the most...

When you already know what needs to be said, start planning out the best way to say it before the patient enters your office. You don't need to write out an entire script, but getting a basic idea of what needs to be said before you put yourself in the situation can make it easier to remember all the necessary details. Doing this can also give you the opportunity to think about the best way to phrase things. Ask the patient plenty of open-ended questions about his or her concerns. Pay close attention to the patient's responses, and parrot those responses back to the patient.  Watch for both verbal and nonverbal responses. Repeating your patient's replies can clarify the situation for you while assuring the patient that his or her concerns are being addressed. The patient is more than a medical specimen. You need to view the patient as a whole being with unique fears, beliefs, and circumstances.  Respect all of the beliefs your patient holds, even if you disagree with them. Encourage the patient to ask questions and address those questions fully. Abandon as much formal medical terminology as possible and speak to the patient in layman's terms. Speak slowly and clearly to avoid unnecessary confusion.  When describing important information about a condition or treatment, separate that information into small chunks. Let each chunk sink in before continuing. Only provide technical details when asked. Too much complicated detail can overwhelm many patients. Some say that in the United States, the average person's reading comprehension is stuck at a sixth grade level. Try translating the words you would use to describe the situation to another doctor into words a sixth grader might use. When you need to explain the significance of certain actions, try framing your explanation in past experiences the patient will understand.  If the patient has recently been to the hospital, explain how neglecting a certain treatment plan may make hospitalization necessary again. When the patient's family or friends have experienced...

When you and your partner are ready to start trying to get pregnant, stop using condoms, and talk to her about stopping her hormonal birth control if she's on any. If she has an implanted contraceptive device, like an IUD or an implant in her arm, your partner will need to visit her doctor to have it removed. If your partner is on hormonal birth control, it could take up to 6 months for her hormone levels to regulate. your partner's ovulation each month. The best way to get a woman pregnant is to have sex with her around the time that she ovulates, or when she releases an egg. This typically occurs in between her menstrual cycles. You can use a calendar to keep up with the days, or you can use a fertility tracking app to help you both remember. You can also track fertility by measuring your partner's basal temperature once a day, or she can monitor her cervical mucus. Once you establish when your partner ovulates, try to have sex at least once a day during that week. Since your sperm can live for up to 5 days after ejaculation, having sex frequently during this time will help ensure there's viable sperm available when the egg arrives. Even when she's not ovulating, try to have sex about 2-3 times a week. Not only will each individual session increase the odds that you'll conceive, having a lot of sex can actually boost your sperm count. Lubricants may affect your sperm's movement, so try not to use them if you don't have to. If you do need lubricants to help with comfortable sex, ask your doctor about an option that won't affect your sperm.  Popular lubricants like Astroglide and K-Y jelly may have an affect on how sperm function. Baby oil and canola oil are lubricating options that may work without affecting your sperm. Your general physician may order a semen analysis, which will check both your sperm count and the health of your sperm. If there are any problems, your doctor may refer you to a male fertility specialist. Your partner should arrange an appointment with her doctor at the same time to rule out...

When you apply lotion before applying foundation to your body, the foundation may not stay put as well. Therefore, it is best to skip the lotion or to at least avoid applying lotion to the area that is bruised. If your skin is very dry, then apply a light layer of a lightweight lotion before using the foundation.

When you are anxious, you might hyperventilate, which will only add to the severity of the situation. Breathing slowly and calmly will reduce negative physical sensations associated with your fear. Try the following before and during your elevator rides:  Stand straight with one hand on your chest and one hand on your stomach. Breathe in through your nose for 4 seconds. The hand on your stomach should rise and the hand on your chest should stay relatively still. Hold your breath for 7 seconds. Release the breath for a count of 8 seconds. As you push the air out, the hand on your stomach should slowly move in towards you. Repeat this process until you feel calm. . Meditation allows your body to find a natural breathing rhythm, focus on the sensations of breathing in and out, and settle into an inner calm. Practice for 5 minutes every day in a non-stressful situation. After becoming familiar with meditation techniques, you can put them to use when you are feeling anxious inside an elevator. These are helpful when you are in a situation that makes you feel anxious, like being stuck in an elevator. Tell yourself something like “I’ve been in this situation before and have come out of it okay” or “Statistically, riding in an elevator is very safe. And if I do have a panic attack, I can wait for it to pass. Next time I practice, I will feel less anxious.” Your coping statement is already a distraction mechanism. You can also try getting your mind off of the fact that you’re riding an elevator by playing your favorite game on your phone, calling a friend (if there is service available), or counting backwards from 100 to 0.

When you are attracted to a person, you may find yourself thinking about them more often than you think about anyone else and doing so beyond your control.   When you are not attracted to someone, you will likely be indifferent. Ask yourself the following questions:  Do I frequently find myself wanting to be where they are? Am I disappointed when they do not return my text messages or phone calls? If you care a lot about your physical appearance, especially if it is more than usual, you are likely attracted to the person. You are demonstrating that you care how they feel about your appearance, and you probably care how they feel about you. Here are a few questions to ask yourself:  Do I care more about how my hair looks? Do I spend more time deciding what clothing to wear? Am I wearing more perfume or cologne? Sometimes figuring out if you are attracted to someone is very easy because you have an immediate physical response that seems to grow within you and is sometimes felt in your mind, body, and heart. This may include nervousness or a feeling of having butterflies in your stomach (fluttering).  Note your heart rate and check your palms when you think about the person or when they are around you. Without even being aware of it, when are attracted to someone you will act differently when they are around. The primary reason is because you feel self-conscious and you want to make a good impression. This may sound strange, but believe it or not, as human beings we are drawn to others based upon their natural odor. Just like you may be attracted to a person’s physical characteristics, odor can foster attraction. Additionally, odor can cause you to remember events and think fondly about a person and the time that you spent together.

When you are away from your loved one, take note of any negative thoughts, assumptions, and beliefs that come into your head. Write them down or express them to someone like a therapist or close friend. Knowing what kind of negative thoughts you might expect can help you manage them. Keeping a daily journal can help you get in the habit of recording your thoughts and feelings. When you have identified these negative thoughts, replace them with positive ones or disprove the beliefs that you feel. Controlling your negative thoughts and replacing them with positive ones may help to calm you down.  For example, if your loved one leaves and you think “I may never see her again,” replace that negative thought with a positive one, such as, “I will see her when she gets home from work. We will eat dinner together and watch a movie." Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a treatment plan for depression and/or anxiety that may help you replace negative thoughts with positive ones. Ask your doctor or therapist about beginning treatment. When you begin to feel anxious and start thinking negative thoughts, you will only feel more anxious.  To keep yourself from dwelling on negative thoughts, distract yourself by:  Engaging in an activity like a hobby you enjoy Focusing on completing work or household chores Taking a walk or exercise Visiting a place you enjoy, such as a museum or the movies

When you are creating a basic game, there are several different code structures that you will be using. There are three main parts of any AS3 code:  		 Variables -  This is how your data is stored. Data can be numbers, words (strings), objects, and more. Variables are defined by the code var and must be one word.   var playerHealth:Number = 100;  // "var" designates that you are defining a variable. // "playerHealth" is the variable name. // "Number" is the type of data. // "100" is the value assigned to the variable. // All actionscript lines end with ";"    Event Handlers - Event handlers look for specific things to occur, and then tells the rest of the program. This is essential for player input and repeating code. Event handlers typically call upon functions.   addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, swingSword);  // "addEventListener()" defines the event handler. // "MouseEvent" is the category of input that is being listened for. // ".CLICK" is the specific event in the MouseEvent category. // "swingSword" is the function that is called when the event occurs.    Function - Sections of code assigned to a keyword that can be called upon later. Functions handle the bulk of your game's programming, and complex games can have hundreds of functions while simpler games may only have a few. They can be in any order since they only work when they are called upon.   function swingSword (e:MouseEvent):void; { 	//Your code goes here }  // "function" is the keyword that appears at the start of every function. // "swingSword" is the name of the function. // "e:MouseEvent" is an added parameter, showing that the function  // is called from the event listener. // ":void" is the value that is returned by the function. If no value // is returned, use :void. ActionScript is used to affect objects in Flash. In order to make a game, you will need to create objects that the player will interact with. Depending on the guides you are reading, objects may be referred to as sprites, actors, or movie clips. For this simple game, you...

When you are diagnosed with a condition that causes an enlarged heart, your doctor may prescribe you ACE inhibitors. If a weak muscle in your heart contributed to your condition, ACE inhibitors are used to help restore your heart's normal pumping functions. The medication can lower blood pressure as well. Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB) are prescribed as an alternative medication for patients who have trouble tolerating ACE inhibitors. If you have an enlarged heart, especially if it due to cardiomyopathy, your doctor may prescribe diuretics. These medications help lower the levels of water and sodium in the body and help decrease the thickness of your heart muscles. This medication may lower blood pressure. If a major symptom of your enlarged heart is high blood pressure, your doctor may prescribe beta-blockers. This will depend on your overall condition. This medication helps to improve blood pressure and lessens abnormal heart rhythms in addition to lowering your heart rate. Other medications such as digoxin also help to improve the heart's pumping mechanism. This can help you avoid hospitalization due to heart failure. Depending on the cause of your enlarged heart, your doctor may also prescribe other medications to help with your condition. If he is worried that you may be at risk for blood clots, your doctor may prescribe you anticoagulants. These medications reduce the risk of blood clots that can lead to strokes or heart attacks. He may also prescribe anti-arrhythmics, which are medications designed to help keep your heart at a normal rhythm.

When you are done, transfer it to a plate lined with paper towels so that it can drain. The bacon slices should be long enough to fit across your English muffin with hanging over the edge. If they are too long, cut the bacon into halves or thirds so that it fits. You can also use a small croissant; you do not have to toast the croissant, however. If you'd like a larger breakfast, try a toasted bagel instead. Heat the skillet for about 3 minutes over medium heat. Add ½ tablespoon of unsalted butter to the skillet, and let it melt. Gently move the skillet around to swirl the butter in it. You can use a fork or a mini whisk to beat the egg. If you'd like, you can season the egg with some salt and pepper. To save time, do this step while the skillet is heating and the butter is melting. Pour the egg onto the skillet and let it cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Flip it over, and let it cook for another 30 to 45 seconds. When you are done, use a spatula to transfer the scrambled egg to a plate. To get a perfect, round shape, use a pancake or egg ring; they are meant for frying pancakes and eggs into perfect circles. You may have to fold the scrambled egg a little until it fits onto the muffin. Make sure that nothing is hanging over the muffin's edge. Place the cheese down first so that the heat from the egg helps melt it. Line the bacon slices on top of the cheese. If you'd like, you can also add extras, such as a tomato slice or chopped chives. Press down on the sandwich lightly to help "seal" it. If you used a bagel to make the sandwich, cut it in half first; this will make it easier to handle. You don't have to cut sandwiches made from English muffins or croissants because they are so small.

When you are first configuring your router, connect it to a computer via Ethernet cable. This will ensure that you are not disconnected if changes are made to the wireless network. Open any web browser and enter in the router’s address into the address bar.  Virtually all Linksys routers can be access by entering the address 192.168.1.1 If you cannot access the router from your browser, the “web management” option may be disabled. If this is the case, press and hold the Reset button on the back of your router to reset it to factory defaults. When you try to access the router from the web, you will be asked for the username and password for your router. These vary from router to router, but the defaults should be listed in your documentation. If you can’t find it, you can reset the router to factory settings and then look up the router model online.  Most default usernames are “admin”. Most default passwords are “admin” or blank. Many newer Linksys routers come with an installation CD that can install a configuration program. This will allow you to change settings without having to connect through a web browser. You typically will not need to enter a username and password to use it. Once you open the configuration software, the menus will generally be the same as the browser menus.

When you are having any kind of conflict with another person, it’s best to to avoid dealing with the problem while you are feeling angry, frustrated, or upset. You will probably not communicate well, and may just make the situation worse.  If possible, remove yourself physically from your little sister. Talk about what happened when you both feel calmer. If you can’t get away, try to keep your head. Blowing up at her will only make things worse. Take a breath and count to ten before responding. Instead of saying, “You are such a brat!” or “Why won’t you leave me alone?” try telling her, “When you do that, I feel sad/hurt/disrespected/upset. It hurts my feelings. Do you like it when people hurt your feelings?” This helps your sister understand the impact of her behavior and teaches her that her actions have consequences. Using "I" language rather than blaming, criticizing, or accusing your sister will also show her that you respect her. She will be much more likely to treat you with respect in return. How is she experiencing your conflict? Even if you continue to disagree, understanding where she's coming from will help you both move toward a solution. Were you always totally rational, or did you sometimes do ridiculous or embarrassing things? Do you think you ever annoyed people? Do you remember how it felt when people you loved or looked up to were mean to you? Your sister’s brain is still developing, and she needs patience as she figures out how to interact with others. The more empathy you show her, the more she will learn, and the less annoying she will become. If you want to change her behavior, you have to understand why she acts the way she does. Although it may not always seem like it, your sister looks up to you. She wants to spend time with you, and to know that you love and respect her. If you show her that you do, your relationship with her will become much easier.  Consider the consequences of your own actions. For example, if you give your sister the silent treatment she will become desperate...

When you are in love with a girl, you are willing to do anything that makes her like you and notice you. You may try to impress her by taking risks or going above and beyond to help others. You may also try to impress her with your ability to play an instrument or play a sport. If your actions are now driven by the ulterior motive of catching her attention, you may truly love her. When you love a girl, it is very common to think about her constantly. Do you find that your mind unexpectedly wanders to thoughts of her throughout the day? Have you stopped to wonder if she is thinking about you too? If she is constantly on your mind, you may love her. When you fall in love with a girl, you may have a strong desire to become the man you feel she deserves. You may feel the need to improve your grades or behavior at school. You may start working out or attending a religious service. If you are willing to make an effort to improve yourself on her behalf, you may be in love with an incredible girl. As you fall in love with a girl, you may make it your priority to make her happy. In order to ease her stress during exam week, you may volunteer to help her study, revise her paper, or complete her chores. When she becomes sick, you may insist on taking care of her and getting whatever she needs. When she is having a rough day, you may go out of your way to make her laugh and smile so she forgets about her troubles. If you are devoting time and energy to making her happy, you may love her. The three little words, “I love you,” pack a huge meaning. Once you express your love, the nature of your relationship with this girl will change for better or for worse. Prior to making this declaration, ask yourself the following questions:  Are you truly in love with her? Does she share your understanding of the word “love?” Are you telling her “I love you” in the hopes that you will get something in return.

Think of friends or family who are not familiar to your partner. Find a local safehouse. Safehouses are usually maintained by nonprofit organizations. They have a secret location and are usually accessible 24 hours a day, so if you have to sneak away while your partner is sleeping, you can. They can help you coordinate with government social services to get benefits to get you started, they can help you with a court order of protection and with prosecution, and many offer counseling services. Delete your partner's phone number from your phone and unfriend them on social media. You may need to unfriend some mutual friends in order to eliminate unintentional contact. You might want to change your phone number as well, so that they can’t call you. Your abuser is familiar with your typical routines and the locations that you frequent.

When you are not living within your means, the first thing to examine are things that you do not really need. Unlike fixed expenses (essentials like rent, utilities, and other payments) which remain the same each month, discretionary expenses are nonessential and are easier to cut back on.   Ask yourself: Am I spending too much money on these discretionary expenses? Are you finding it difficult to pay bills because of going on vacation, for instance? Or do you really need the designer shoes or the latest gaming system? Check for things you do not use. This may mean a gaming site subscription you have not used in months, or a gym you do not go to, or cancelling cable because you watch everything online. There are admittedly a few grey areas, such as a gym membership or a nice wardrobe that may be necessary for your professional career. These may not need cutting, but worth scrutinizing. Look at your credit card and bank statements as well as cash expenditures to see where your money goes. Take note of even little things like a coffee, a postage stamp, or a meal on the go.  You may be surprised by how much you end up spending in just one week or in one month. If possible, look at data compiled over the course of a year. Most financial planners would review entire year of expenditures before making recommendations. Discretionary expenses can end up taking up a large percentage of your pay cheque or allowance. Recording them will give you a sense of where you can cut back on your spending. Take note of how much you spend on wants versus needs (for example, drinks at a bar versus groceries for the week). Figure out what percentage of your expenses are fixed versus discretionary. Fixed expenses remain the same each month, while discretionary expenses are malleable. This is a good way to track how much you spend on certain things every day. Rather than toss your receipts, keep them so you can record exactly how much you spent on an item or a meal. This way, if you end up overspending for the month, you can pinpoint...
