Article in English: This pressure point is considered one of the most popular ones to induce labor. It is located on the hand between the thumb and the index finger.  Pinch the webbing between your index finger and thumb. You will be focusing on the area towards the middle of your hand, between the first and second metacarpal bones. Apply steady, firm pressure to this point. Then, start rubbing a circle with your fingers. When your hand gets tired, just shake it out and start again. When a contraction starts, stop rubbing the pressure point. Resume when the contraction passes. This pressure point is believed to aid in helping the uterus contract and the baby descend into the pelvic cavity. You can also use this during labor to help ease the sensation of contractions. Gallbladder 21 is located between the neck and the shoulder. Before locating GB21, drop your head forward. Have someone find the round knob at the top of the spine, and then the ball of your shoulder. GB21 is located midway between these two points.  Using your thumb or index finger, apply steady downward pressure to this point to massage and stimulate the area. You can also pinch the point between the thumb and index finger on your opposite hand, massage in a downward motion with the index finger for 4-5 seconds while releasing the pinch hold. This pressure point is also used for neck stiffness, headaches, shoulder aches, and pain. This pressure point lies on the lower back, between the back dimples and the lumbar spine. It is used for inducing labor, easing pain during labor, and helping the baby descend.  To locate this point, have the pregnant woman kneel on the floor or a bed. Drag your fingers down alongside the spine until you feel two small bony hollows (one on either side of the spine). These hollows will be between the dimples and spine - but not the dimples themselves.  Press your knuckles or thumbs into the BL32 pressure point for constant, steady pressure or rub in a circular motion. If you cannot find the hollow, measure the length of the pregnant...

Article in English: This process is similar to the one for creating an in-text citation. Look for the website title at the top of the website. It is also usually included in the url for the site. For example, you may cite “Parks Ontario” or “The Canadian Cancer Society” as the title. If you’ve made an in-text citation, you’ll already have this information. If not, search the bottom of the website for a creation date, usually found next to a trademark or with the note, “Created on.” You can also search for a revised date at the bottom of the page. It is usually listed as “Revised on” or “Reviewed on.”  For example, you may see a note at the bottom of the website that says “Created on: March 2001” or “Revised: 2017.” You may then write in the citation, “Parks Ontario 2001” or “The Canadian Cancer Society 2017” Use “n.d.” in the citation if you can’t find the creation or revision date. “N.d.” will indicate that no date can be found on the website. For example, you may write, “Parks Ontario n.d.” or “The Canadian Cancer Society n.d.” Write “corporate website” or “official website” in italics. Do not include any punctuation between the title of the site and the words “official website” or “corporate website.” For example, you would use the citation, “The Canadian Cancer Society official website” or “Parks Ontario corporate website.” Write “viewed” and then list the date you viewed the site. Always list the day first.  For example, you may write, “viewed 21 June 2016” or “viewed 1 March 2011.” Here’s an example reference: The Canadian Cancer Society n.d. The Canadian Cancer Society official website, viewed 1 March 2011 Use a lesser than symbol (<) followed by the full url of the website. End with a greater than symbol (>) and a period.  For example, you may write, “<http://www.cancer.ca/en/get-involved/take-action/what-we-are-doing/>.” An example of the complete citation is: The Canadian Cancer Society n.d.

Article in English: This rate can be higher than your normal APR, but has an important distinction from a purchase rate. Interest on purchase APRs is calculated only at the end of each billing cycle. However, with a cash advance, interest is charged every single day until you pay off the balance of the cash advance. The cash advance rate goes into effect the second you do one of the following:  Withdraw cash from an ATM or bank branch using your credit card. Transfer funds from your credit card to your overdraft account. Write a check off your credit card. Use your credit card to buy foreign money. You may have to squint to read the fine print, but you’ll find it in there somewhere. This is the interest rate you pay per day. To find it, divide your cash advance APR by 365 days. For example, if your cash advance APR is 20 percent, complete the following equation: 20 ÷ 365 = 0.055 Multiply the amount from the previous step by that number of days. So, if you waited 30 days to pay off your cash advance at an APR of 20 percent, complete the following equation: 0.055 x 30 (days) = 1.65. Your interest rate on the cash advance is 1.65 percent. Multiply the interest rate from the previous step by the amount of money you withdrew. If you withdrew $1,000 in our example, you would complete the following equation: 1,000 x 0.0165 = 16.50. You will pay $16.50 in interest on your cash advance.

Article in English: This recipe calls for cubed chicken. To cube chicken, place a breast on a chopping board with the smooth side facing up. Using a very sharp knife, cut straight strips about 1 inch (25 mm) apart down the length of the breast. Turn the cutting board and cut straight strips about 1 inch (25 mm) apart across the width of the breast. Lightly salt and pepper the cubed chicken. These three ingredients will take some time to prepare as they require mincing, dicing and de-seeding, but the kick they’ll give your chili will be well worth the effort.  Dice the onion as you did for the crockpot chicken chili recipe. To mince garlic, you must first pick off a clove from the bulb and peel it. Start by laying the flat side of the clove on a cutting board. Take a wide-blade knife, hold the handle with one hand and lay either of the flat sides of the knife on top of the clove. Push down hard with the heel of your hand to smash the clove, which will allow you to easily take off the peeling. Now lay the clove on one of its flat sides on a chopping board, cut off both ends and cut the clove in thin strips lengthwise, or from root to tip. Turn it 90 degrees and cut strips in the opposite direction, which will form a pile of garlic. Put the tip of the knife on the cutting board and, using a rocking motion, move the heel of the knife in different directions as you cut into the pile. And Voilà! Minced garlic.  To de-seed and mince jalapeno peppers, first consider wearing a pair of gloves! Next, cut the stem off the pepper, slice it in half lengthwise, take a spoon and scoop out the seeds. Now, cut very thin, or roughly 1⁄16 inch (1.6 mm) lengthwise slices. Take the slices, turn them crossways and make very small cuts across. Heat a saucepan deep enough for soup over medium or medium-high heat for a few minutes, or until the pan is quite hot. Next add 2 tablespoons (30 ml) extra-virgin olive oil to the pan and swirl it around so that it coats the bottom. Continue heating for 10-30 seconds, or until the oil begins to shimmer, looking...

Article in English: This recipe is a little more complex than the one above, but the result is a fuller, more impressive dish. The recipe starts basically the same way: chop your lettuce, bell pepper, and tomatoes into small pieces so they'll cook quickly. For this recipe, you'll also want to chop about two medium onions and slice a handful of olives. If you are including the optional green onions and cilantro, chop these up at this point as well. In this recipe, you will make your own chunky salsa rather than using storebought salsa. Add chopped onions, tomatoes, bell peppers, and olives to a large mixing bowl. If you are using the optional cilantro and green onions, add these as well. Mix well to combine. Don't worry if the tomatoes make the mixture a little watery. Set aside when combined. If you have a lime handy, squeezing half of it over the mixture can lend it a bit of a tangy flavor. You can also try using a squirt of bottled lime juice. This isn't required, however. Set a frying pan over medium-high heat for about three minutes. Add a little cooking spray or oil and crumble the beef into the pan. Cook until well-browned and no pinkness remains (about five to ten minutes), stirring and breaking up the meat with your spoon or spatula. As noted above, when the meat is finished cooking, some grease will remain in the pan. Drain this carefully and dispose in the garbage. Pour the water into the pan with the beef, followed by the seasoning. Stir well so that the beef is evenly coated (the water will make this easier). Simmer until the water evaporates. If you don't have taco seasoning, it's not hard to make your own. Most commercial seasonings are just chili powder, cumin, paprika, and coriander, with a little salt, onion powder, and/or cayenne added for flavor. See our article on taco seasoning mix for step-by-step recipes. Put a generous pinch of lettuce in the center of each serving plate. On top of this, arrange your beef, beans, vegetables, and cheese in layers to give each serving a multi-tiered presentation. Now is...

Article in English: This recipe is very simple and can be made quickly, so it’s perfect for a busy weeknight. Instead of making the white and red sauces from scratch, this baked pasta calls for 2 jars of your favorite store-bought sauces. Along with being a fast meal to prepare, it’s also fairly inexpensive and kids love it. Serves 6-8.  4 cups penne noodles; 1 jar Alfredo sauce (15 oz.); 1 jar marinara sauce (24 oz.); 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese; 1 cup shredded parmesan cheese. Cook and drain the pasta according to the directions on the package (different brands vary). While you’re working on this, go ahead and preheat your oven to 350 degrees to prepare for the baking portion of the recipe.  Carefully pour the boiling water and cooked pasta into a strainer to drain. If you don’t have penne noodles on hand, feel free to substitute with 4 cups of your favorite pasta shape. Pour both the marinara and Alfredo sauces straight from their jars into a large mixing bowl. Using a big mixing spoon, stir them together until well blended. The red and white sauces will combine to create a creamy orange-red hued sauce. Mix 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese into the sauce mixture in your large bowl. Stir the cheese into the sauce well. Then add the cooked and drained pasta to the mixture. Stir well to combine all of the ingredients. Carefully pour all of your mixture into a 9x13 baking dish. Confirm that your oven is now heated to 350 degrees. Slide the baking dish into the oven and bake the pasta uncovered for 20-25 minutes. By that time, it will be hot and bubbly. Carefully pull the pasta dish from the oven and sprinkle 1 cup of parmesan cheese evenly over the top. Pop it back into the oven, still uncovered, for another 5 minutes. Confirm that the parmesan has fully melted, then remove it from the oven.  Allow pasta to cool for at least 5-10 minutes before serving.  Feel free to chop and sprinkle fresh parsley and/or fresh basil on the top of the dish before cutting and serving. Prepare the recipe all the way up to baking step....

Article in English: This should be done immediately after the race is over. All waste should be bagged up and either thrown away or recycled appropriately. Make sure you have a plan for disposing of the trash once it’s gathered.  You may need to rent a dumpster or bring the garbage to the dump yourselves. Try to have a team of volunteers dedicated only to cleanup. It’s likely that those who participated in setting up and running the race will be tired by the time it’s over. It’s great to have a crew with fresh energy to take care of things once the race is over. Always try to leave a space better than you found it. Even if some of the litter wasn’t caused by the race, pick it up. That will keep you in the good graces of the local government, should you want to plan another race next year. You may need someone to stay with the equipment and wait for it to be picked up. Or, you may need to have a crew of volunteers load it into vehicles and return it. Make sure it’s been cleaned up and is in working order before you return it.  For things like audio equipment, make sure all of the cords and extra parts are returned along with the larger pieces. You’ll be charged a hefty sum if any pieces are missing. Make sure to return all equipment on time. You may be charged an extra day or more for returning something even a few hours late. If anyone used their own money to purchase items for the race, make sure they are reimbursed in full. If there were any paid staff members, make sure they receive the payment promised to them.  Make sure to collect receipts from anyone you are reimbursing. You should keep these for tax purposes and also so that you can incorporate them into your documentation of the budget. This step should be completed by the treasurer or the treasury committee if there is one. Now you finally get to write the check.

Article in English: This should be indicated on the documentation pamphlets that came with the amplifier, or the amplifier itself. If the amplifier is used, or lacks documentation, go online and check for the specifications on the manufacturer's website.  Bridging an amplifier cuts the resistance load (measured in ohms) in half, which can cause it to overheat. Be sure to check your manual (or the manufacturer’s website) to see if once connected to a speaker, whether or not your amplifier can function at half the ohms it currently uses. Most amplifiers have a small diagram near the channels indicating the terminals you would use to bridge it. If your amplifier does not claim to be able to bridge, don't try to bridge it. It may already be bridged internally, and you could cause damage to your amplifier. Be aware of the fact that if your amplifier is a stereo amplifier (amplifying both left and right), bridging it would cause it to become a mono amplifier (amplifying from one; either the left or right). On your two-channel amp, you should see 4 terminals: a positive (+) and a negative (-) for channel 1, and a positive (+) and a negative (-) for channel 2. Each terminal will be labeled as follows:  Channel 1  "A" (positive) "B" (negative)   Channel 2  "C" (positive) "D" (negative) From the wires coming out of the speaker, connect the positive speaker lead to terminal A (the positive for channel 1) and connect the negative speaker lead to terminal D (the negative for channel 2). Connect these wires by unscrewing the screw in that terminal, placing the wire in between the top and bottom portions of the terminal, and then screw the screw down tightly to secure the wire.  The wires coming from the speaker are going to be insulated with a plastic coating. You will need to strip off a small portion of the wire insulation (less than 1 inch) using a pair of wire strippers in order to secure it to the terminals.  What this connection does is it combines the power from the two separate channels, doubling your power output.

Article in English: This should be one of your biggest priorities when planning a move. When finding a new home, there are a lot of factors to consider. First, choose a location. Do you want to live near work? Near where you socialize? Figure out what is important to you. Next, choose what sort of home works for you. Are you an apartment person? Or do you need a house?  At this point, you will want to decide whether or not you want a roommate. This option can be really great for those people on a budget. If you have a friend who also needs a place to live, this could be ideal. If you find a roommate another way, make sure to use common sense and be safe. One way to find a roommate is to ask around and use your connections. Post a notice on your social media sites, and send an e-mail to your co-workers, asking if they know anyone who might be interested. You can also use the internet to find a roommate. Make sure to use a reputable website, and be very thorough and specific when posting what you are looking for. Make certain to meet any potential candidates in person, in a public space. Take a trusted friend with you so that you can get their feedback. Your parents have likely supplied everything you need. When you prepare for your move, make sure to think about the everyday essentials you will need. Sure, you'll need furniture. But don't forget things like soap, drinking glasses, and cleaning supplies. Make a thorough list and hit the store!  Walk around your parents' house and make a list of essential items. Don't forget to pack/purchase things like light bulbs, a plunger, and a can opener.  Make a list of items you will need for each room in your new place. This will help you to stay organized. You can save a lot of money when outfitting your new place if you are resourceful. Ask friends and family if they have any furniture, dishes, etc. that they are not using. Hand-me-downs are great when you're starting off! Go thrifting. Thrift shops and consignment stores are great places to stock up on essentials for your new place....

Article in English: This simple car can be built using LEGO pieces that almost everyone has. You will need several different types of pieces for this car, and you can vary the pieces used based on what you have. Measurements for LEGO pieces are given in "stud" count (the "dots" on many LEGO pieces). A brick that is 2 studs wide by 4 studs long is a 2x4.  For the chassis you will need 4 tires of the same size, 2 rectangular axles of the same size, and a thin 4x12 plate (the long, thin LEGO pieces). For the body, you will need 2 2x2 bricks, 6 2x4 bricks, 4 1x2 bricks, 1 1x4 brick, 2 2x2 clear angular bricks, 1 LEGO windshield, and 1 LEGO steering wheel piece. The axle pieces are small square or rectangular pieces that have prongs on either side. Snap one tire to each prong. When finished, you should have two sets of wheels connected by the axles.  Make sure the axle pieces and tires fit together snugly. The tires should be secure, but still able to spin freely. Make sure your tires and base piece are proportionate. Tiny tires will not adequately support a larger LEGO car, and will impede speed and movement. You’ll need 2 2x2 square bricks and two 2x2 clear angular bricks. Alternately, you could use one 2x4 brick and two 2x2 clear angular bricks.  Snap the clear bricks to the top of the square bricks. Attach the pieces you just completed to the front end of your car. Make sure the end of the plate is flush with the edge of the pieces you attached. This piece will sit directly behind the hood you just built. You will need 2 2x4 bricks and a 2x4 LEGO windshield piece. Stack two 2x4 bricks together. Snap on the windshield piece. Attach this section to the plate just behind the piece you attached in Step 3. You will need 1 2x4 rectangular brick, 2 1x2 rectangular bricks, and a 1x2 LEGO steering wheel piece.  Snap the 1x2 bricks to either end of the 2x4 brick. It should look a little like a short “u” when you’re finished. Position the steering wheel in the space between the 1x2 bricks. The piece should be on the back row of studs with...

Article in English: This simple equation is what you'll use to convert weight into mass (or mass into weight, if you want to). Don't be worried about what the letters mean — we'll tell you:  Force is the same thing as weight. Use Newtons (N) as weight. Mass is what you're solving for, so it may not be defined to begin with. After solving the equation, your mass will be calculated as kilograms (kg). Acceleration is the same thing as gravity. Gravity is on earth is a constant equaling 9.78 m/s2. If you're measuring gravity on other planets, this constant will be different. Let's illustrate how to convert weight into mass by using an example. Say you're on earth and you're trying to figure out how much mass your 50 kg soapbox racer has.  List your equation. F = m * a. Fill in your variables and constants. We know that force is the same thing as weight, which is 50 N. We also know that the effect of gravity on earth is always 9.78 m/s2. Plug in both numbers and our equation looks like this: 50 N = m * 9.78 m/s2  Rearrange in order to solve. We can't solve the equation like this. We need to divide 50 kg by 9.78 m/s2 in order to isolate m. 50 N / 9.78 m/s2 = 5.11 kg. A soapbox racer that weighs 50 Newtons on Earth has a mass of about 5 kg, wherever you race it in the universe! Learn how to convert mass back into weight using this example. Let's say that you pick up a moon rock on the surface of the Moon (where else?). It has a mass of 1.25 kg. You want to know how much it will weigh when you bring it back to earth.  List your equation. F = m * a. Fill in your variables and constants. We have mass and we have the gravitational constant. We know that F = 1.25 kg * 9.78 m/s2. Solve the equation. Because the variable we're looking for is already isolated on one side of the equation, we don't have to do any moving around in order to solve the equation. We simply multiply 1.25 kg by 9.78 m/s2, giving us 12.23 Newtons.

Article in English: This simply a common set of colors, locations, or a mood that guides all of your shots Professional rap videos tend to rely on creative visuals while the rapper spits his lines into the camera. These themes can range from a lavish hip-hop lifestyle (2 Chainz's "Birthday Song") to a simple but striking visual theme. Craig Mack's "Flava in Ya Ear," for example, uses stark black and white shots on a white background that makes each rapper a unique, screen-filling phenomenon.  The song's mood -- do the visuals fit alongside it or seem contradictory? The budget -- more locations means more time and more money. Not all rap songs need to tell a story, and most don't. But some videos will even split the difference, interspersing a short story throughout more traditional shots, like in T.I.'s "Whatever You Like" video. T.I. starts with a short skit, showing our feature dancer working at a fast-food joint, before using the video to show her "rise" to stardom and riches. It is simple, but effective, especially with the ending skit that reveals it was all a daydream.  When writing a music video story, keep it simple. Remember that all film stories come down to three questions -- who is the protagonist, what do they want, and how do they try to get it? Keep stories bound to one or two locations and actors. The more complex the story, the more difficult your shoot will be. This is the main event of most professional rap videos, and higher-budget videos might have 4-5 locations each. Watch a few of your favorite videos and note where they place the rappers. Some of the most common locations include:  Hometown streets or neighborhood joints (if in public, call the Chamber of Commerce for film permits). Party locations, like houses, pools, or the beach. Rooftops Graffiti tagged walls or deep city environments (be sure to check with the original artist, when possible). Green screens, allowing you free rein of backgrounds. A great rap video looks a lot like a party, and will be played in the background of parties and clubs. So...

Article in English: This skin condition often flares up because of a specific irritant. Knowing what triggers your spongiotic dermatitis can help you prevent and relieve it.  The trigger could be an allergen, food allergy, cosmetic, environmental factor, insect bite, or harsh soap or detergent. If you suspect a specific trigger, try to limit your exposure to it and see if it relieves your symptoms. Certain external factors can worsen spongiotic dermatitis including dry skin from taking baths or showers that are too hot, stress, sweat, wearing wool, exposure to tobacco smoke and pollution. Certain foods can also worsen spongiotic dermatitis including eggs, milk, peanuts, soybeans, fish, and wheat. Use mild or “hypoallergenic” soaps and laundry detergents. These contain fewer harmful chemicals that can irritate your skin. Rinse clothes twice after washing to ensure that the detergent is well removed. Any product marked “hypoallergenic” has been tested for sensitive skin and will likely not irritate your skin. No matter what treatment you seek for spongiotic dermatitis, do not scratch the patches on your skin. Scratching the rash can open any sores you may have and cause further problems, including infection. If you cannot avoid scratching the irritated areas, occasionally apply bandages to any areas seriously affected by spongiotic dermatitis. This will limit exposure to irritants and keep you from scratching. Do not cover the areas frequently, as this may actually cause more irritation. Maintaining your skin’s natural hydration will prevent dryness and help prevent further irritation. You can help keep your skin hydrated by different means including moisturizing, avoiding temperature extremes, and using a humidifier.  Use a gentle cleanser made for sensitive skin when you bathe or shower. Recommended choices include Dove, Aveeno, and Cetaphil. Don't use overly hot water, as this can dry out and irritate skin. Apply moisturizer to your skin at least twice a day. The best time to apply is after a shower or bath while your skin is...

Article in English: This starting position is similar to the one used in the thumb flick method where your middle finger serves as the fulcrum while the index finger holds it in place. Keep the pressure between your fingers strong enough to hold the cigarette in place, but avoid squeezing too hard so you don’t split it in half. Make sure the cigarette is only an inch or so above the edge of the ashtray, with the tip of the cigarette hovering over the inside of it. This way the ash falls in the ashtray, instead of falling outside of it. This common pitfall could damage the table the ashtray is on and make you look like a novice. Use the top  of thumbnail to strike the bottom of the filter, causing the front of the cigarette to hit downward on the ashtray. Make sure the cigarette hits the side of the ashtray because it provides a solid surface to loosen the ash. The impact with the ashtray should cause your cigarette to ash.

Article in English: This step is important for people who are trying to collect something that is, or will become, valuable.  Start by searching for someone in your neighborhood: a vendor you're familiar with, a flea market, an antique shop. Associations like the American Society of Appraisers or International Society of Appraisers can connect you with the right person. Be prepared to pay for the service, although some auction houses may offer a free appraisal.   Don't trust eBay. There is no easy way to verify someone's credentials. After all the time and energy you've put into creating your collection there are ways to make it so it can be seen and admired by others. Different collections have different needs when it comes to exhibition.  Occasionally museum and libraries carry works or collections of students or communities members. Talk to your local museum or library to see if they might be interested. Most kinds of collections should be displayed out of the sun which can fade the objects in the collection.  Artwork, should be well lit, but out of direct light, especially natural light. Coins are typically stored in albums and folders, in coin tubes and capsules. Capsules are best for individual coins, particularly for valuable ones. Albums and folders made exhibition easier. For larger items, like dolls or fossils, use a glass fronted cabinet. Storing them in the open could damage them. This is, again, especially important if you are collecting with the hope of your collection being worth something. The better preserved the collection the more worth it will have. Knowledge is the most important component. Know how best to care for your collection.  Putting a doll in a plastic container can cause it to mold if moisture seeps in. If you are collecting dolls you should make sure that you have the original clothes, particularly when it comes to antique dolls.  Cleaning coins might make them less valuable. Proceed with caution and handle them only by their edges with your thumb and forefinger.   Artwork, especially, is affected...

Article in English: This stone's main colors are golds, yellows, and browns. You'll see these colors in striations throughout the rock. Striations are just linear bands of rock that form colors. Some of the browns are fairly dark, almost black.  It can also have reddish-brown bands, though that's sometimes referred to as ox's eye.  In some tiger's eye, you may notice a few stripes of blue. Hawk's eye is a purely blue form of this rock. Tiger's eye is formed from quartz, and quartz has this type of shine. Therefore, when you're looking at tiger's eye, it should look somewhat like glass when you hold up to the light. You might also see a silver-toned hue in the luster when you hold it under a light. Since tiger's eye is formed from quartz, it rates a 7 on the Mohs hardness scale. That means that it should be able to scratch glass, which is a softer material on the Mohs scale. Scrape the edge of the rock against a scrap piece of glass. If it scratches the glass, then it registers higher on the Mohs scale than glass. All the scale measures is how well the material resists scratching. A "harder" material will scratch a "softer" material.

Article in English: This technique involves using a door, mirror, or anything else as a gateway to a different location, planet, or universe.  Concentrate on the place you want to reach. Your dream is technically a land in your imagination, so imagine it as well as you can. Then simply open the door or walk through the mirror. If you don't find yourself in the right place, try again or just explore where you are. The place you wanted might be right around the corner. Imagine in as much detail as possible, the place you want to go. Then, will your surroundings to blur and fade, and your new location to fill in the blanks. You can also try spinning in place, knowing that when you stop, you will be in your desired location. Close your eyes and decide that when you open them you will be in the right place (be wary of closing your eyes all the way because sometimes the dream will fade away and you will wake up). If you can't teleport without a gateway, don't worry. It takes more time and practice without a gateway but you'll get it in time.

Article in English: This temperature will help your sausages cook thoroughly without breaking the casing. If you’re using a baking pan, cover the bottom thoroughly with nonstick cooking spray. If you’re using a roasting pan, coat the rack inside the pan with spray instead. For extra flavor, try adding bell peppers and onions to the dish. Chop the ingredients into large pieces, then arrange them at the bottom of the pan. If you’re using a roasting pan, cover the bottom of the pan with cooking oil before adding the peppers and onions. Place a small chunk of butter in a microwave safe bowl, cover it with a paper towel, then microwave it until fully melted. Using a basting brush, coat the sausages with butter to taste. This will help trap in flavor while the sausages are roasting. Set your sausage links inside your baking pan or on the racks of your roasting pan. To help the sausages cook correctly, make sure they do not touch each other. Set your pan in the middle of the oven and let the links roast for about 15 minutes. After about 15 minutes, turn your sausages over with tongs to keep one side from overcooking. Then, roast them for another 15 minutes. When your sausages appear deep brown and are mostly firm, press a food thermometer into the fattest link. If it reads at least 160 °F (71 °C), your sausages are done. Remove them from the oven and let them cool before serving. Keep your leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate them for up to 5 days.

Article in English: This test, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, looks for the antibodies that your body produces to fight the disease. It doesn't test for the disease itself.  Another similar test which may be used is the immunofluorescence assay.  These tests are not definitive because your body may not have developed enough of the antibodies yet, particularly if you've had the disease fewer than 30 days. If the ELISA returns a negative result and it's been fewer than 30 days, it's time to start looking at other diagnoses, just in case. You should look for other possible sources of the symptoms. In some cases, the doctor may treat the patient for Lyme disease even if the ELISA doesn't return a positive result. This blood tests look specifically at your proteins. It pulls them out into bands using electricity. The bands are printed out on a sheet and compared to a sheet of bands that are positive for Lyme disease. Typically, you must match 5 out of 10 bands for a positive diagnosis.  There are two types of tests for the Western blot, the IgM and the IgG. The IgM should only be given if you've had symptoms 30 days or fewer. However, because some bands are more indicative of Lyme disease, you may have fewer than 5 bands and your doctor will still determine you have the disease. This test also detects antibodies in the blood. The ELISA test is not very sensitive, so it misses some patients with Lyme disease. The Western blot test is very sensitive, so it can give false positives. The combination of the two tests provides better results.

Summary in Portuguese:

Primero, faça o ELISA. Verifique outro diagnóstico com um resultado negativo. Receba um tratamento se tiver mais de 30 dias. Use o teste Western blot para confirmar um caso positivo. Faça ambos os exames para obter resultados positivos mais precisos.


Article in English: This ties in with the need for proper desk organization, but also means that you need to keep tabs on the mess of papers, pens, open books, and so on that may build up on your workspace as you study. Too much clutter can leave you feeling overwhelmed and stressed out, which will put a damper on your study session.  It is a good idea to take short study breaks along the way anyway, so when you do, take a moment to tidy up your workspace before resuming. Excess clutter can lead to unnecessary distractions. Keep only what you need at that time in front of you.  A cluttered workspace can lead to a cluttered mind. It is hard to ignore the lure of your phone when studying. The modern smartphone is perhaps the ultimate tool and the ultimate distractor. Put it away when you study, or you may find yourself browsing Facebook or texting a friend without even realizing you’d picked up the phone.  Turn your phone off or put it in do-not-disturb so the lure of notification chimes doesn’t drag you away from your studies. Also try placing it well out of reach so you can’t reflexively grab for it.     If you are using your phone as a calculator or other tool, consider putting it  on airplane mode which shuts off wireless and cellular connections. You can turn them back on for your (brief) study breaks. Some people do well with “white noise,” background noises such as those in a coffee shop that aren’t really distinct enough to be distracting. Others need total silence to work. Figure out what works well for you, and plan your space accordingly.  ”Multitasking” is a myth. You simply can’t watch TV or surf Facebook and study at the same time, no matter how much you think you’re “really” a multitasker. Focus your study time on studying, and save things like TV and music for leisure time. If your study space shares a room or a thin wall with a TV in use by someone, or people engaged in conversation or some other potential distraction, try to block out the distraction with your own background noise. Try choosing something like...

Article in English: This type of training places the emphasis on endurance over speed. You will run more slowly over much longer distances--perhaps even a marathon. Consider the muscles that you want to build. Long-distance runners tend to become lean and sleek, where sprinters are more powerful and compact. Make sure your running shoes fit your feet as close as they can without being too tight. If your shoes are too tight, you may develop blisters midway through a long run. The longer you run, the better your shoes need to be.  If you run every day, your shoes may only last as much as 4-6 months. If your feet begin to hurt whenever you put on your running shoes, it may be to get a new pair. Some shoe stores can design shoes specifically for your feet. If you can afford it, consider getting shoes that match your arch and foot shape, as this will make your stride more natural. Run at 50-75% of your top speed to conserve energy. If you need a break, slow down to a slow jog. Do not stop.  If you live near a school, consider running around the track. Standard-size tracks are a quarter-mile long per lap. If you are completely new to running, start by running a mile. If you have been running for a while, you can build up to three, four, or even more miles. If you live near a park or an open-space preserve, consider trail running. Be aware that hills and rough terrain will make it more difficult to run, especially at first. If you have a gym membership, consider using the treadmill. A treadmill makes it easy to track your speed and the distance that you have run, and you may prefer to start out in a controlled environment. Carbohydrates are full of the energy that your body wi If you're planning to run a 10k (a 10-kilometer race; 6.2 miles) or something even longer, it's wise to eat high-carbohydrate foods a day or two before. You don't want too much fiber, protein, or fat, and your food should be easily digestible to avoid nausea during a race.  Tortillas, oatmeal, bread, pancakes, waffles, bagels, yogurt, and juice are all high-carb,...

Article in English: This variety of salvia plant blooms most often in spring and fall, although you may notice flowers in other seasons as well. Wait for the bright, colorful flowers to begin dulling, turning green or brown. Then, use shears to cut underneath the bud or pinch the flower off by hand. Throw the flower away so it doesn’t rot in nearby soil. Look for the highest leaf cluster on each stem. Avoid cutting below this point. Reduce each stem by 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) to prevent the salvia from overgrowing during the warmer months. Work from side to side to ensure you get each stem.  This type of salvia is a shrub which can grow hard stems. Trimming the stems helps prevent woody growth. Autumn Sage is a very common woody sage. A few others are Hot Lips Sage and Orange Mountain Sage. Work slowly, taking out an equal amount of branches from the sides and middle of the salvia. Using pruning shears, make your cuts where the branches divert from nearby branches.  Leave the remaining stems about 3 to 6 in (7.6 to 15.2 cm) long. You can do this to sculpt the salvia as well as let light into its center. Finish pruning the salvia around the time of the final frost. Use your shears to cut all of the stems close to the soil. Your salvia bush should then have plenty of space to grow back again. If you don’t cut the stems during this time, they will harden and appear ragged. Cut the bush even if it is still green.

Article in English: This villain is a Goldilocks, so if you're going to copy her style, you'll need to go blonde. Depending on which version of Harley you want to recreate, you may also want to add some other colors. In some iterations, such as in the film Suicide Squad, she has blonde hair with pink and blue pigtails.  When her hair is showing, it's usually in pigtails. In other instances, Harley has joker-style hair. When her outfit is a black and red joker costume, then her hair is often black and red, too. Her hair will be split down the middle with one side being red and the other black, usually opposite the colors on her outfit. In other words, if her right shoulder is in black, then the hair above it will be red, while the left shoulder is red and the hair above is black. Once again, you'll need to choose which Harley Quinn you're going to go with, as her makeup varies depending on what iteration you're looking at. You can choose between classic Harley Quinn, or one of the more updated versions, such as the Suicide Squad Harley, though almost all of them start with making your face look paler.  Classic Harley has a pale face, dark red lips, and a black mask. If you want to go for a simpler version, skip the black mask, and go for dark eyeliner and eye shadow instead. For Suicide Squad, you'll start with a pale face, then you can add eye shadow to match your hair. For example, if your left pigtail is blue, add blue eye shadow on that side. Add pink eye shadow on the other side. You can add a little black heart on one cheek, if you'd like. Add a pink-red lipstick, and you're done. You have a few options when choosing to dress like Harley Quinn. You can go all out with a red and black jester's outfit. On the other hand, you could take a line out of the 2016 movie's book and go for a red and white baseball tee, short half red and half blue shorts, fishnet stockings, boots, and a fancy black belt. Don't forget to add some black gloves either way you go. She also sometimes wears a red jester's hat. Harley has a penchant for...

Article in English: This way you can sort through your underwear more easily. You can also empty your underwear drawer out onto your floor or desk to sort. Set aside stained, ripped, and tattered underwear and bras in a separate pile. Also place underwear that doesn't fit you, that you do not use, or that is uncomfortable into this pile. Throw these away. You should be left with a pile of underwear and bras that you want to keep. If you are male, separate your briefs, boxer briefs, trunks, and jockstraps in different sections. If you are female, place thong-style, bikini-style, and brief-style underwear in different sections. Place your nude, white, black, and patterned underwear in different sections in your drawer. Alternatively, place solid-colored underwear in one section and patterned underwear in a different section. Place your everyday underwear in one section. Then place more formal or designer underwear, like lace or silk, in a different section. You could also have a separate section for underwear that you use while exercising like jock straps.

Article in English: This way, you know what kind of answer you should provide. The terms and conditions usually include the criteria that will be used by the judges to judge the entries. The criteria is usually something like “the most creative and original” or “the most inspiring.”  For instance, if the competition’s criteria is creativity, then you might decide to write a poem or a short story. Also, remember to read the prompt carefully. Are the judges the promoters, the owner of the company hosting the competition, the suppliers of the prize, or an independent panel? Find out who the judges are and tailor your response to them.  For example, if the CEO of Macy’s is the judge, then tailor your answer to be something about Macy’s or shopping at Macy’s. Avoid providing ready-made answers that you have used many times before. To think outside of the box is to view things from a different perspective. This means stepping outside of your comfort zone when faced with a challenge. Instead of relying on tried and tested methods, choose a different method.  By stepping into another role, you can view something from a different perspective. For example, pretend you are a person from a different time period, like the 1940s, and answer the prompt from this perspective. Try reframing things in order to view something from a different perspective. For example, instead of looking at the glass half empty, look at the glass half full. Try to make the most of the word limit, but do not go over it. You will be disqualified if you exceed the word limit, even if it is only exceeded by a single word. Keep track of your words by counting them as you go along.  Make sure to count your words before you submit, as well. Before submitting, check that your personal information is correct as well, for example, your e-mail address, phone number, and other identifying information. Spelling and grammar are also important. Even if you have great content, too many spelling and grammar errors can prevent you from winning. Therefore, remember to double-check...

Article in English: This will allow to search through the databases that are directly linked to your EndNote program. This is the easiest way to find and retrieve citations.  In the Desktop version, online search is the button represented by a small globe. For EndNote Basic, look for a tab labeled “Collect.” Under this tab, the leftmost option is “Online Search.” Use the drop-down menu to pick your desired database. Then, fill in your search terms. You can look for a specific citation using the title of the piece and its author. You might also want to find a series of references by doing a general keyword search.

Article in English: This will also reduce swelling that can add to the discomfort of the injury. Take care not to apply ice or cold packs directly to the skin while treating dislocations or damage to the skin could result; make sure you wrap the pack in a towel first. Apply ice for no longer than 10 – 20 minutes at a time. Follow the recommended dosages on the bottle. Both of these medications are available over-the-counter at your local drugstore or pharmacy. Once the injured person gets to the hospital, medical staff will re-align the bones around the joint. This procedure is called "reduction." Often it requires the patient to be under partial sedation as it can be quite painful (however, in the long run, it diminishes pain by speeding recovery).  The doctor will then immobilize the joint for several weeks. He will be sure to immobilize it in the correct position, after everything has been re-aligned, and your body will naturally heal things from here. Sometimes surgery is needed if your doctor cannot re-align the bones around the joint manually. In this case, the joint will be immobilized after surgery. Physical therapy usually takes a number of weeks and helps the patient regain range of motion in the joint. It also helps strengthen the muscles surrounding the joint so a subsequent injury is less likely. Only begin using the limb according to your doctor’s instructions.

Article in English: This will be the first page. Write the business name at the top of the paper, then write a business description a few spaces down. All you need for this is a short paragraph that describes your business idea, objectives and goals. If you’ve created a business logo, put it on the cover sheet, as well. Aim for 5-6 sentences.  Write the business name in large letters, or use a large font, and make it bold. It’s the most important thing on the page. The description paragraph can be in a normal size or standard 12 point font. Write 1-2 sentences that describe who the business owner is (you) and the management team (your employees, if you have any). Then write 2-3 sentences about your company’s history. Since your company is brand new, your history will cover how you came up with your business idea and why it’s important.  Owner/Management example: “Kelly’s Doggy Daycare is owned by Kelly Klein. She has several years of experience pet-sitting and truly loves working with and caring for dogs of all kinds.” Business History example: "Kelly noticed that most of her neighbors were dog owners who worked long hours every day. Occasionally, they took vacations and/or experienced family emergencies, which could take them away from their pets for days at a time." "With her love for dogs, Kelly knew she could provide a pet care service that her neighbors would benefit from, and that’s how Kelly’s Doggy Daycare was born." After you write the history and management information, the main part of your business plan will begin. The plan will cover four topics: your product/service, your business objectives, market/competitor information and funding requirements/profit. Try to write 3-4 sentences for each topic.  You don’t need to get incredibly detailed – summarize and highlight the most important information for each. Example for product/service: "Kelly’s Doggy Daycare will provide hands-on pet care for today’s busy pet owner. The business will offer day rates along with in-house extended stay pet sitting.

Article in English: This will be the router that is connected either to a dedicated modem or to the wall outlet. Generally, you'll want your newest and most fully-featured router as your base router. If you have two of the same router, it doesn't matter which one you pick. This will be the router that is extending your original network. You'll usually want to use your older router. This router will control the secondary network if you are creating a LAN-to-WAN network (see below). During the initial setup process, you should keep the routers near your computer so that you can easily access them. You can set them up in their permanent locations later. While you can use an Ethernet cable for both of these connections, they have slightly different uses:   LAN-to-LAN - Extends your Wi-Fi range to include the second router. You can also use a LAN-to-LAN connection to share files between network-connected computers, smartphones, and so on.  LAN-to-WAN - Creates a second network inside of the main network, allowing you to place restrictions on any computers, smartphones, or other items that are connected to it. LAN-to-WAN networks cannot be used to share files. Connect your main router to your modem via an Ethernet cable, then connect your computer to the router via a different Ethernet cable.  If you're using a Mac, you most likely don't have an Ethernet port on your computer. You can buy an Ethernet to USB-C (also known as "Thunderbolt 3") adapter to fix this problem. On Windows computers which don't have Ethernet ports, you can buy an Ethernet to USB adapter. . Since this router will be handling the connection to the internet, set it up as if you were only using a single router.  You can access most routers by entering the router's IP address in a web browser. Each router's settings will vary substantially from other models. If you can't find a certain setting or section on your router's page for the rest of this method, consult the router's manual or online documentation.

Article in English: This will be your stroller’s body. Make sure that you are using a pencil for the draft sketch so you can erase it afterwards to make it neat. This will be the stroller’s shade. Draw a big letter ‘X’ just below the base of the obtuse angle. The tips of the ‘X’ should touch the angle. at the bottom end of the ‘X’, add two circles for the wheels. Remember the obtuse angle earlier? Draw another angle to overlap the obtuse angle. This time, draw an acute angle. This will be the frame for the shade.

Article in English: This will consist of motions and exercises that improve the mobility of your wrist and hand. The rehabilitation program will also focus on strengthening the muscles needed for you to regain function of your wrist and hand moving forwards. Physiotherapists are specifically trained to help you maximize muscular strength and joint mobility in your carpal tunnel region, so adhering to the program they design for you will play an important role in determining how well you recover from surgery. When you are in the midst of recovering, you want to avoid stressing or straining your wrist and hand by doing the same activities that triggered carpal tunnel syndrome in the first place. For instance, if you normally work a desk job that involves a lot of typing, it is important to know that typing with your injured hand and wrist will likely worsen healing and not help it (until you are far enough along in the recovery stages).  Ask your boss if you can switch to something that does not involve excessive wrist and/or hand movement while you recover. Alternatively, if you cannot switch jobs, you may need to opt for typing slowly with one hand in order not to exacerbate your injury, and to help with recovery. Consider using a trackball or trackpad instead of a mouse while recovering as these put less pressure on the wrist when used. If you have coverage, you may opt for a short-term leave from work while you recover so that your job does not negatively interfere with the healing process. Patients are often advised to take at least one week off prior to resuming desk duties, and more for forms of work where the type of labor puts more strain on their wrist or hand. Return-to-work expectations vary significantly depending upon your type of employment. It normally takes several weeks to several months to recover fully from a carpal tunnel release surgery. In most cases, the results are good if the surgery went well (if there were issues during surgery, that is another consideration altogether and your surgeon will discuss this...

Article in English: This will cook your salmon thoroughly and evenly.  If you’re using a charcoal grill, spread the coals out, light the fire, and wait about 5 minutes before you start cooking. While your grill is heating up, run a cloth dipped in olive oil over your grates. This will help prevent your salmon from sticking to the surface. Keep the cloth between your hand and the grates to avoid burning yourself. Use a brush to coat your fish with a thin layer of olive oil. This will pack in moisture while your salmon is grilling. If your filet is large, cut it into smaller pieces before using any olive oil. To add additional flavor, sprinkle your fish with a small amount of salt, pepper, dill, garlic, parsley, and tarragon. For additional zest, squeeze half of your lemon or lime over the filet. Before grilling, make sure you cover both sides. To give your salmon more flavor, place it in a wet marinade an hour before cooking. Popular ingredients include lemon juice, sesame oil, honey, and hot sauce. Place the filet on a part of the grill where heat is evenly distributed, avoiding spots directly above large flames or burners. Depending on the size of your filet and the heat of the grill, each side could take between 4 and 8 minutes to cook. To give your salmon grill-marks, place it at a 45° angle to the grate. Avoid tongs, which can force moisture out of the fish, and skewers, which can cause the fish to break apart. To see if your salmon is close to done, press your spatula into the center of the fish. If it flakes and causes clear juice to run out, it is ready to be moved. Fish can dry out quickly, so taking your salmon off the grill will ensure that residual heat does not overcook or burn it.

Article in English: This will ensure that you can have fun on your own terms, and don't fall victim to the whimsy of your friends. They may have different ideas about how the night will go. In order to plan for a good time sober, you must have the option of leaving in case the party becomes too challenging.  Prepare a good excuse to leave beforehand so that you don’t find yourself tongue-tied in case others insist that you stay. Maybe you have an early morning the next day. You can also ask a friend to text you at a specific time and say they need to talk. Be proactive—plan how you will get home from the party in advance so that you don't get stuck there. Having something to sip on will keep your mind off of not having an drink. This will keep others from feeling self-conscious that they are too drunk while you are sober, and may allow them to open up to you. Also, you don’t want to be vulnerable to people who might want to offer you a drink. Whether it’s alcohol-free beer or just a soda, having your own drink to fall back on may reduce the likelihood that you resort to picking up an alcoholic beverage if you're overcoming an addiction. If your sobriety is what’s most important to you, there is no shame in simply not attending the party if you anticipate that it can become too wild. Find an alternative that you enjoy which will be fulfilling, and will not lead you to regret backing out of the party.

Article in English: This will give the plant plenty of room to grow and spread its roots. Jalapenos need to be replanted several times, so be prepared to transfer the plant a few times. Make sure the pot you use has proper drainage holes. You can find organic potting soil at your local garden or home improvement store. Fill the pot at least halfway full of potting soil to start with, and then you can rearrange the soil once you add in the plant. You can add a little bit of compost to the soil for nutrients, if desired. Gently pull the root ball out of the nursery container, making sure not to pull on the stem. Give the root ball a couple of squeezes with your hand to loosen up the soil and roots. Place the root ball down in the pot, making sure the top of the root ball is almost level with the top of the pot. Add in more potting soil around the root ball using your hands or a shovel until the pot is mostly full. Be careful not to damage the roots when you’re arranging the soil in the pot, especially if you’re using a shovel.

Article in English: This will give the tree time to adapt in its new climate before the hottest summer months or frosts in winter. If possible, plant the Arborvitae tree in late fall or early spring, depending on your preferences. Because of their height, Arborvitae plants do not make good indoor plants and must be grown outside. Although Arborvitae trees can grow in shaded areas, they grow best in sunny spots. Find a spot in your garden that receives at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight to help your tree adapt faster.  Though adaptable, arborvitae trees prefer sunny, humid climates. If you live in a climate that does not receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight, your tree may grow but will have stunted growth. If your area has hot summers, your tree will need light shade in the afternoon in order to thrive. Arborvitae trees prefer moist soil with plenty of organic nutrients. Add compost or an organic soil mix to the ground to give your tree a boost as it acclimates to its new spot.  To test your soil's draining levels, dig a  12 in (30 cm) deep hole and fill it with water. If the water takes 5-15 minutes to drain, you've found well-draining soil.  Arborvitae trees also grow best in alkaline, or non-acidic, soils. You can check your soil's acidity by ordering a soil pH balance test online or from a plant nursery. For the first several years after planting Arborvitae, it will need protection from wind. Choose a low-lying spot next to an obstruction like a wall, building, or large tree to prevent wind damage. You can also stake your tree to the ground after planting it if you can't find a low-lying spot.

Article in English: This will give you the numerator of the product. The numerators are the numbers above the fraction bar.  The product is the answer to a multiplication problem. Unlike when adding fractions, multiplying fractions does not require having a least common denominator. This is because when taking a part of a fraction, you are changing the number of pieces in the whole. For example, if you are multiplying 52{\displaystyle {\frac {5}{2}}} and 312{\displaystyle {\frac {3}{12}}}, the numerator of your answer (product) will be 15, since 5×3=15{\displaystyle 5\times 3=15}. This will give you the denominator of the product. The denominators are the numbers below the fraction bar. For example, if you are multiplying 52{\displaystyle {\frac {5}{2}}} and 312{\displaystyle {\frac {3}{12}}}, the denominator of your product will be 24, since 2×12=24{\displaystyle 2\times 12=24}. To get the product of the two fractions, simply put together the numerator and denominator you found by multiplying. For example, if you found the numerator by multiplying 5×3{\displaystyle 5\times 3} and the denominator by multiplying 2×12{\displaystyle 2\times 12}, your answer (product) is 1524{\displaystyle {\frac {15}{24}}}. Usually you will be asked to reduce, or simplify a final answer if it is a fraction. To simplify, find the highest number that will divide evenly into the numerator and denominator, then divide the numerator and denominators by that number. For example, if your answer is 1524{\displaystyle {\frac {15}{24}}}, you can divide the numerator and denominator evenly by 3. 15/3=5{\displaystyle 15/3=5} and 24/3=8{\displaystyle 24/3=8}, so the simplified fraction is 58{\displaystyle {\frac {5}{8}}}. Since 5 cannot be divided evenly by any other number, you cannot simplify 58{\displaystyle {\frac {5}{8}}} any further.

Article in English: This will give your duck breast ample flavor and doesn’t require any special ingredients. Sprinkle some salt and pepper on both sides of the duck breast and it’s ready to go. How much salt and pepper you use will depend on your personal preferences. If you have a marinade that you like to use, place your duck breast in a plastic sealable bag and pour in enough marinade to cover the duck breast. Let it marinade for 2 hours before starting to grill. There are tons of different seasonings and spices that you can try out on your duck breast. Rub the seasoning into the duck breast thoroughly, coating both sides before grilling. Choose a store-bought spice blend that you like, or create your own seasoning at home. Use your favorite store-bought barbecue sauce, or you can make your own! Use a pastry brush or spoon to cover the duck breast in as much barbecue sauce as you’d like. You can coat the duck breast before grilling as well as during grilling. Mix together 0.5 cups (120 ml) unsweetened pineapple juice and 0.25 cups (59 ml) of honey. Cook them in a pan over medium heat until they turn into a syrup. Add 0.5 teaspoons (2.5 ml) of fresh ginger and 1.5 teaspoons (7.4 ml) of minced jalapeno chiles and let it simmer for 2 minutes. Brush this on the duck breast while it’s still cooking.

Article in English: This will help keep the French toast sticks from sticking. Keep the cooking spray on hand; you will be using it later. Put the butter into a small, microwave-safe dish. Microwave the butter for about 1 minute, or until it melts. Take it out of the microwave, and set it aside so that it can cool down. If you don't have a microwave, melt the butter in a small saucepan over the stove. Try to use thicker toast slices, as they will give you sturdier French toast sticks. Many people also find that stale, day-old toast works better for this recipe than fresh toast. Use a shallow dish, such as a casserole dish. This way, you won't have to worry about dropping and losing any bread sticks in the mixture.  If you are allergic to dairy, try coconut milk or almond milk instead. If you are vegan, use ½ cup (120 milliliters) of unsweetened almond milk and ½ tablespoon of flax meal (ground flax seeds). Rotate it until it is evenly coated. Flick off any excess egg mixture. If you don't like to get dirty, you can spear the bread stick onto a fork instead. Continue dipping the egg sticks into the egg mixture, and placing them on the baking sheet, until you have none left. Make sure that you leave some space between each stick. Place the baking sheet into the oven, and let them bake partway. After 8 to 9 minutes, pull the baking sheet out of the oven. Spray the tops of the sticks with some cooking spray. Use a fork or spatula to flip the sticks over. This will allow the other side to bake and turn crispy as well. If you plan on dipping them into maple syrup, you can place them inside a cup or bowl instead. Serve them as they are now, or sprinkle some icing/confectioner's sugar on top. You can also pour some maple syrup into a small cup for dipping the sticks into.

Article in English: This will help the spices stick to the tuna. Alternatively, if you are grilling the tuna steaks, then you may want to lightly brush them with oil before rubbing with spices. This will prevent the tuna from sticking to the grill. In a small bowl combine together 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. For a spicier flavor substitute the back pepper with cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. You could also try garlic salt or sea salt to expand the flavor. In order to make a blackened tuna rub, combine paprika, oregano, thyme, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and salt in a bowl. Taste the seasoning and adjust the quantities when you reach a flavor you enjoy. You can search online to find a recipe for a delicious tuna rub or experiment with the spices and herbs that you have on hand. You can do this by sprinkling the spice mix onto a cutting board and then pressing all sides of the tuna into the spices. Alternatively, you can sprinkle the spice mix directly onto each side of the tuna and then massage it into the meat using your hands. The tuna is now seasoned and ready to be cooked.

Article in English: This will help to flavour the tuna steak and keep it moist while cooking. For example, combine 1 cup (236 ml) of soy sauce, ½ cup (118 ml) of lemon juice, and 2 cloves of minced garlic in a medium bowl. Then add salt and pepper to taste. Alternatively, you could place the ingredients in a resealable plastic bag. Once you have completed the marinade, add the tuna to the bowl or plastic bag. Dip the tuna entirely into the liquid marinade, so that all sides of the steak are coated. Place the tuna and marinade in the refrigerator for anywhere from 15 minutes to 4 hours. You can flip the tuna once in order to make sure that all sides are coated and flavoured. The tuna is now ready to be cooked. Tuna can be marinated in a variety of different flavours. For example, you could replace the lemon juice with orange juice, or use teriyaki sauce as well as soy sauce. Search online for a variety of tuna marinade recipes and experiment until you find one that you like.

Article in English: This will help with aligning the velcro on your floor, since they won’t be easy to move once placed. Use a pencil to trace the outlines of the rug’s corners. It’s best to use a light pencil that can easily be erased. For the sake of simplicity, you can flip the rug right over your markings. You can buy velcro in strips at any home improvement store, usually on a roll. Make sure you have both the hook and loop sides (one is rougher to the touch than the other). Cut four strips of the soft side and four strips of the rougher side. This plastic backing preserves the velcro strip’s adhesive properties. After peeling this off, lay the velcro strips on the ground, adhesive side facing upwards. Place each strip a few inches away from the corner, adhesive side facing towards the rug. Apply pressure to the velcro strips so they’ll stick. Repeat this for each corner of the rug. Be careful in placing the velcro strips, as they’ll be hard to remove once glued on. Use the placement of the velcro on the rug and the pencil markings you’ve made on the floor to help you align the velcro. Take your time applying the velcro to the floor; the adhesive is strong enough that you won’t be able to adjust the strips without completely ripping them from the floor. They’ll likely lose their adhesive property and leave glue on your floors. Align the velcro strips together, and apply pressure to each corner of the rug. The rug will now be securely held to the ground.
