Article in English: You'll find it in your app drawer.  If you're receiving notifications for "unread" messages you've already opened (or for messages that don't appear in your SMS or messaging app's inbox), try this method. This may also resolve the issue of the badge number on the app's icon reflecting unread messages when all messages have been read. Sometimes these issues will clear up automatically upon receipt of a new message. Ask someone to send you a message to see if that corrects the issue. The name of this menu will vary, but it will always contain the word App or Application. If your Android doesn't display all apps by default, tap the All option. It may appear as a tab but sometimes you'll have to open a menu and select something like Show all apps. Choose the app for which you keep receiving unclearable notifications. It's usually a button somewhere on the page. If you see an option that says Clear cache instead of Storage, you can skip this step. This clears the app's cache, which may clear up the issue. If you continue to get notifications for messages that aren't actually new, continue with this method. A confirmation message will appear, letting you know that you may lose data such as settings and preferences. Clearing the app's data will hopefully resolve the issue. If you continue to receive notifications about messages you've already dealt with, try another method.

Article in English: You'll find this gear icon on the home screen or in a folder.  Use this method to find out which apps are using the bulk of your iPhone's battery power. Once you know what apps consume the most power, you can make an effort to open those apps less (or uninstall them completely). You can also use this method to check the general health of your iPhone's battery (iPhone 6/SE and later). It's in the third group of settings. You'll see a graph that shows your battery activity over the past 24 hours. Tap Last 10 Days to see this information for a longer time period. Under the "BATTERY USAGE BY APP" header lies a list of app names with corresponding percentages. The percentages tell you how much of the battery power over the past 24 hours (or 10 days, if you switched the view in the last step) was consumed by this app. If you have an iPhone 6, SE, or later, you'll see this option above the graph (and below the battery modes).  Check "Maximum Capacity" to find out how much life is left in your iPhone's battery. This value should be at 100% when the iPhone is brand new, but it will decrease over time. As the maximum capacity decreases, you'll have to charge your iPhone more often. Once the battery's capacity is problematically low, you'll see a warning on the screen that tells you to replace the battery.   Check "Peak Performance Capability" to find out if your iPhone is functioning with reduced performance due to the maximum capacity being too low. Once the battery reaches the end of its life cycle, your iPhone will automatically stop performing as fast to preserve its life for as long as possible.

Article in English: You'll find this in the lower-left corner of the screen, and it will have the Windows logo. This will open the Device Manager window.  There are three main video card manufacturers that your adapter is almost guaranteed to be using: NVIDIA, AMD/ATI, and Intel. If you see Intel and NVIDIA, your computer is either switching between them as necessary or you've installed an NVIDIA card on a motherboard with Intel graphics. In either case, you'll be getting the NVIDIA drivers. You'll need to know the video card model and model number in order to download the correct drivers. You'll see all of this information after the manufacturer name. For example, "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 670" is made by "NVIDIA" and the model line is "GeForce." The model number is "GTX 670." Now that you know the video card information, you'll need to download the driver software from the manufacturer. Each manufacturer has a website dedicated to driver downloads for their cards:  NVIDIA AMD Intel Use the drop-down menus and the model number you noted earlier to find your specific video card. All three websites also have an auto-detect tool that you can run, which will determine your video card. You may need to accept some security warnings when running these tools. If your video card is older than four or five years, it may no longer be supported by the manufacturer and new drivers may not be available. Once you've found the drivers for your card, click the download link or button to begin downloading the installers. Video card driver installers can be fairly large, and may take a while to download. After the installer has finished downloading, click it to start installing the drivers. You'll find the installer at the bottom of your browser window, or in the Downloads folder. The process is different for each manufacturer, but you can generally leave all of the installation settings at their defaults. During the installation process, your monitor may flicker or shut off for a moment.

Article in English: You'll generally want to buy an external hard drive that both has enough space for you and comes from a reliable manufacturer such as Western Digital or Seagate.  When buying an external hard drive, it's often not much more expensive to buy a terabyte (TB) hard drive rather than a 500 gigabyte (GB) one. A one-terabyte hard drive will usually run under $100. Plug the hard drive's USB cable into one of your computer's USB ports. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. The Start menu will open. Click the folder-shaped icon in the bottom-left section of the menu. Doing so opens the File Explorer window. It's on the left side of the window. Click your external hard drive's name below the "Devices and drives" heading in the middle of the This PC window. The external hard drive's name will usually contain the name of the manufacturer or the model of hard drive. It's a tab in the upper-left corner of the window. A toolbar will appear below this tab. This option is on the left side of the Manage toolbar. Doing so prompts a pop-up window. Click the "File System" drop-down box, then click NTFS or exFAT in the resulting drop-down menu.  NTFS is useful for Windows-only systems, while exFAT can be used on any computer (Macs included). It's at the bottom of the window. Doing so confirms your decision and allows Windows to begin formatting the hard drive. Once the external hard drive has been formatted for your computer, you'll be prompted to click OK, at which point you can use the external hard drive as a second hard drive.

Article in English: You'll have at least two drives available: your computer's hard drive, and the Arch Linux installation media. To check your current drives:  Type in fdisk -l and press ↵ Enter. Find the name of the largest hard drive on the results screen. The name will be something like "/dev/sda" and can be found to the right of the "Disk" heading. Type in cfdisk [drive name], making sure to replace [drive name] with your hard drive's name, and press ↵ Enter, then select DOS and press ↵ Enter again. For example: if the drive is named "/dev/sda", you would type cfdisk /dev/sda into the terminal. Select a partition in the middle of the screen, select Delete at the bottom of the screen, press ↵ Enter, and repeat for any other partitions in the middle of the screen. You should ultimately be left with a line entitled Pri/Log    Free Space. This partition will function as your system's backup memory if and when you are consuming all of your RAM.   To do so:  Select New and press ↵ Enter. Select Primary and press ↵ Enter. Type in a number of megabytes (e.g., 1024 for one gigabyte) and press ↵ Enter. As a rule of thumb, you should make the swap partition 2 or 3 times your RAM (e.g., if you have 4 gigabytes of RAM, you should make the swap partition 8192 or 12288 megabytes). Select End and press ↵ Enter. This is the partition on which your Arch Linux operating system, files, and other information will be stored. To do this:  Make sure that the Pri/Log    Free Space partition is selected. Select New and press ↵ Enter. Select Primary and press ↵ Enter. Make sure that the number next to the "Size (in MB)" heading is correct. Press ↵ Enter. Select the primary partition again. Select Bootable and press ↵ Enter.

Article in English: You'll need 1 or 3 adjustable-angle metal flag brackets (the stronger the better), a dowel rod to fit the flag bracket, and long fabric. You can have one at the center for a really regal look, or you can use three to get more of an expedition tent look. Mount the first at the center of the bed and the other two (if you want them) directly above the sides of the bed. These must be installed in your wall studs or they will not be strong enough. Put the dowel rods into the pole holder. You should be able to put it all the way in (it should not be too tight). If it is loose, you can make a better fit using wood shims or cardboard pieces. Center the fabric on the center pole and drape the ends over the sides of the bed or the hole poles, depending on the style you went with.

Article in English: You'll need a car stereo that supports Bluetooth devices and audio. Many newer stereos do this, but if you have an older car you may need to install a new stereo first or use one of the other methods in this article.  Your car stereo must support the A2DP Bluetooth profile in order to play back music from your iPad. If your stereo has an auxiliary jack but no Bluetooth support, you can use a Bluetooth dongle that connects to the auxiliary jack.   This process will vary significantly depending on the stereo brand and car manufacturer. Even though you are connecting your iPad, select the "Phone" option. This will make the stereo begin searching for your iPad's Bluetooth signal. It should appear in the list of available devices. This is usually 0000. This may take a few moments. You should see a message on your car stereo informing you that the connection has been made. Now that your iPad is connected, you can start playing music on your car stereo. You will need to switch to the AUX or Bluetooth input.

Article in English: You'll need a pain with a downspout, a water can, and a large metal tub. You'll also need a pump, 1/2" tubing, a wooden wedge, something to drill or puncture the metal with, and silicon or Sugru. Puncture a 1/2" hole in the side of the metal tub and insert the tubing through it. Attach the tubing to the pump and then seal off the hole with Sugru and/or silicon so that it is watertight. This punctured hole should be very close to the bottom of the tub. Puncture a similar 1/2" hole in the side of pail thread the end of the tubing through it so that the tube ends in the pail and seal the hole similarly to how you sealed the tub. Arrange the containers on steps, ledges, or boxes so that the downspout on the pail flows into the watering can and the watering can pours into the tub. The watering can will need the wedge underneath to make it pour. Ta-da! Your garden fountain is done! You can add as many pails and watering cans as you want to the chain.

Article in English: You'll need a sheet of 1/4" flat stock aluminum, a band saw or jigsaw, a metal file, a piece of plywood, a 1-1.5" diameter dowel rod, electrical tape or ribbon, and metal glue or epoxy. Draw a template onto paper or cardstock to get the outline of the sword blade you want. Leave a straight portion at the bottom for the handle, about 1-1.5" wide. Trace your template onto the sheet of aluminum using a Sharpie or other marker. Then, cut it out using a band or jigsaw. Be careful: you want to cut the metal, not your fingers. When making this cut, you want to get as close to your outline as possible without actually cutting along the line. Clamp your sword in place and then use a file to get the edge of the metal down to your outline. A metal grinder will make this job faster. Using the file, bevel the edge of the blade to get that "cutting" edge. You don't want it to be too sharp though: then you can't play with it. Cut a square, oval, or circular hand guard from the plywood, cutting an extra gap at the center that you can fit your blade through. Paint the guard black. Next, using the saw, cut the dowel rod in half so that you get to half circles. You want to use a dowel rod that is the same size as the handle you cut out. One half will go on each side of the handle, creating a round surface for you to hold. You can use the metal glue or epoxy to secure the pieces in place. Use a little clear caulk to secure the blade side of the handle guard once the dowels are in place. Using the electrical tape or wide ribbon, wrap the handle until the whole thing is covered. You can wrap it in a basic spiral, or you can try to do the decorative wrapping of real Japanese swords. Enjoy your new sword!

Article in English: You'll need a thread, needle, drill, sandpaper, superglue, painter's stir stick, rubber bands, waxed paper, cotton swabs, alcohol or  nail polish remover and a hobby knife. Use sandpaper to clean and rough up the broken area to be glued.  Swab the area with some rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover to prepare the surface. Cut a piece of a painter's wooden stir stick to fit between the temples (aka, the side pieces) of your glasses.  Cover your lenses with wax paper to prevent scratching and then wrap a rubber band over one end of the stick and secure it to your glasses.  Do the same on the other end. Line the two halves up carefully and be sure the rubber bands are holding things firmly in place.  If it wasn't a clean break and there are some gaps, line the pieces up as best you can taking pains to ensure there are some definite points of contact. Fill the joint at the break with glue; use enough to secure the bridge but not so much that the glue runs out. Squeeze out the glue slowly and neatly to avoid bubbles.  As you fill in the joint, be sure that there are no gaps or voids.  Use the side of a cotton swab to gently clean up any excess glue; swab it up before it has a chance to dry and get tacky.  Set the glasses aside for at least an hour so the glue can dry completely. Choose a small drill bit appropriate for the thickness of your eyeglass frames.  Take your hobby knife and dig out pilot holes on either side of the newly repaired joint.  Place your glasses down on a soft cloth that's been laid on a table top and carefully drill a hole on each side of the break.   The holes must be parallel so they can be used to wrap a band of thread around the core joint. Use a fine needle and four to six feet of thread that matches the color of your eyeglass frames to "sew" the two sides of the repair together for added strength.  Pass the needle and thread through the two holes as many times as you can taking care not to pull too hard and put stress on the newly repaired joint. Stop when there's no more room.  Fill...

Article in English: You'll need access to sunshine for 30 minutes each session, for four to five sessions. Squeeze one to two lemons (depending on how long your hair is). Apply the juice to your hair with a brush. Optionally, you can add two parts coconut oil to one part lemon juice, to condition as you lighten. Put your head back into a bowl of strongly brewed, dark coffee. Squeeze the liquid out and then pour coffee through your hair a cup at a time. For more dramatic results, prepare a paste of instant coffee and hot water in a thick consistency, and paint it onto your hair in sections. Clip up your hair and wrap it in a plastic bag for 30 minutes. Rinse it out under water and then dry your hair as normal. Make a chamomile rinse by putting 1/4 cup of chopped chamomile into a heat-safe bowl. Add two cups of boiling water. Let it cool. Pour it through a strainer and save the water to use as a final rinse on clean hair. You can darken gray hair with a rinse using one cup of potato skins. Mix in two cups of water. Bring the mixture to a boil in a lidded pot. Then simmer for five minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and let the mixture cool. Strain out the potatoes. Use the water as a final rinse. You may want to pour it into an empty shampoo bottle to make application easier. Towel dry your hair and leave the rinse in.

Article in English: You'll need dinner, dessert, breakfast, snacks, and drinks. Try buying the food only a couple days before, so you won't eat it all! You can also go out to eat ice cream, dinner, or breakfast (but not all three!). Try picking food that isn't very different, something that everyone will probably like. Don't get, for example, fish or veggie burgers. You can, however, have a choice of regular or veggie burgers. So, always have something that everyone will want to eat. Below are some simple suggestions for all the food and drinks you'll need. But, you can also think of your own!  Dinner: The most common dinner at a sleepover is pizza. This is a pretty safe choice, that most people like. If you're getting pizza, always have at least one plain and one with a topping. (pepperoni always works). Other dinner choices are chicken, pasta, hot dogs and hamburgers. Know what your friends like, but if you don't know, just get pizza. If you invited a friend who you know doesn't like pizza, make sure to have an alternative for them. Sometimes it is fun to cook the dinner entirely yourself, and although this takes time it can be a very rewarding experience.     Dessert: For dessert, be creative! A great idea is to make dessert at the party, like ice cream sundaes, cupcakes, or a cake. You can just decorate them or make them from scratch. Or, you can have a premade cake or brownies. It will save time if you want to do more activities.     Drinks: Always have water and soda. Ginger ale is always good to get, but to cover your bases, consider getting a variety such as cola, orange, root beer as well. Fruit juice is good, too.     Snacks: Of course you'll need snacks. Stock up on chips, pretzels, veggies with ranch or yogurt dip, popcorn, candy, fruit, and anything else that you can think of. Always have something healthy as an alternative. You do not have to eat nothing but junk food!     Breakfast: For breakfast, make your own waffles or pancakes. You could also ask a parent to make them. You can also have french toast sticks....

Article in English: You'll need regular white glue, skin tone makeup, toilet paper, and a couple small makeup brushes.   Make sure that the glue you use is skin friendly. You will be applying it directly to your skin. Use foundation that matches your own skin tone. If you have regular everyday makeup you can use this as it’s probably already matched to your skin tone. You can also use a liquid foundation that’s a little off from your skin tone to enhance the effect of wounded flesh.

Article in English: You'll need some skills in order to make a game (skills we can't teach you here because they are too complex). You might need to go to school in order to learn these skills but it is technically possible to learn them on your own as well. You'll need a good understanding of math, since many games boil down to a series of equations. You'll also need to learn a programming language (usually C, C++, or C#). There are schools for game design, but your best bet is to go to the best school you can get into for programming. This will give you a more diverse skill set so that you can take a general job as a programmer if you don't immediately get hired with a company. If you want to break into the industry and start working with major publishers, it's a good idea to start by just making a small but engaging game that shows your skills but doesn't require 5 years to make. This can get someone interested enough to give you a job or give you money. You also just don't want to bite off more than you can chew. You don't need to get your game published by a major publisher. You don't have to be recognized by anyone but your players if you don't want to. The indie game market is alive and kicking and right now is the best time to be making this kind of game. Keep this in mind before strongly pursuing official backing. If you want to make a great game, of any type at all, you're going to have to get some money. It takes a LOT of money to make a game. Currently, the best way to get that money is to run Kickstarter, which is one of many crowd-funding platforms. Check out some Kickstarters that have been successful in the past to see what they did right, but the main pieces of advice are to have great incentives and communicate constantly. Steam is Valve's digital game store and one of the most popular distribution channels for PC games. They are also one of the most friendly distribution channels for indie games. If you're making this type of game, your best bet for success is to get it on Steam. Currently, Steam Greenlight is...

Article in English: You'll need some sort of container to provide a home for your starter. Use a small mixing bowl that will hold between 2 to 4 cups (500 to 1000 ml). You can use almost any type of container made for food; however, it is recommended to use a non-reactive container such as glass or plastic. Plan to cover your container with plastic wrap or a clean cloth. Mix 1/4 cup (50 ml) of water with 1/2 cup (50 g) of whole grain flour. If you're weighing your ingredients, use 50 grams each of flour and water. Mix the ingredients until thoroughly-combined and cover with plastic wrap. Once you've stirred the starter, scrape down the sides of the container. You want to make sure you don't leave "food" on the side of the container to feed mold growth. You want a place where the starter isn't likely to be disturbed (dogs, children, curious husbands) and where you can maintain the temperature within the 65° to 85°F (18° to 30°C) range. If you need a warmer area, turning on the light in an oven (but not turning the oven on) will often get you the temperature you need. Similarly, the top of many refrigerators is also a literal hot spot. Sourdough is all about patience. What are you waiting for exactly? You want the starter to become active and start bubbling. In time it'll rise and grow like it's alive. How long are you waiting? 12 hours is usually enough for the starter to become active, so definitely make other plans. Bubbling can begin a few hours into the wait, or it can take as long as 24 hours -- it all depends on the ingredients you used and the environment it's in. If the starter is not active in 12 hours, give it another 12 hours for good measure. If it still isn't active, give it another 12 hours. And if it's not active after 36 hours, check the steps above to make sure you did them right. If everything was right, throw it out and try again -- it's probably not going to happen. If you've tried twice with no results, try a different brand of flour or type of water. When the starter is active, you have to feed it. Add...

Article in English: You'll need the following items for this task:   SDHC card - A large SD card of up to 8 gigabytes is needed to install Homebrew and perform other file-based tasks.  USB flash drive - This is the drive on which you'll install the games.  Wii remote - If you have a newer (black) model of Wii, you'll need a generic Wii remote to help with the installation. for FAT32. To do so, select FAT32 (or MS-DOS (FAT) on a Mac) in the "File System" section of the format menu. Keep in mind that formatting a flash drive will erase its contents, so back up the contents to your computer or another flash drive if necessary. If there is currently a disc in the Wii, remove it before proceeding. . Your Wii will need a network connection in order to install the bulk of the USB tool's files. on your Wii. If you haven't yet installed the Homebrew channel for your Wii, you'll need to do so before proceeding. The Homebrew channel allows you to install custom modifications, one of which will let you play games off of a USB drive. . Once you've installed Homebrew with the SD card, you'll need to wipe it clean so that you can use it for the USB installation files. The easiest way to do this is by formatting the SD card. As with the flash drive, choose FAT32 (or MS-DOS (FAT) on a Mac) as the file system.

Article in English: You'll need to apply a balanced 10-10-10 (10% nitrogen, 10% phosphorus, 10% potassium) fertilizer between March and early April each year, but the exact amount can vary depending on the maturity of the vine.  During the first and second years, apply 1/4 lb (115 g) of 10-10-10 fertilizer after planting, 2 oz (60 g) 34-0-0 fertilizer in late May, and 2 oz (60 g) 34-0-0 fertilizer in early July. During the third year, apply 2 lbs (900 g) 10-10-10 fertilizer per vine in March and 1 lb (450 g) of 10-10-10 fertilizer in May. Beyond the third year, apply 3 to 5 lb (1350 to 2250 g) of 10-10-10 fertilizer in March. You may also need to apply 1/2 lb (225 g) ammonium nitrate at the beginning of June. Scuppernongs also need considerably large amounts of magnesium. If older leaves begin yellowing between their veins, apply 2 to 4 oz (30 to 60 g) of Epsom salts to the soil of one or two year old vines, or 4 to 6 oz (60 to 80 g) Epsom salts for older vines. Mature vines planted in sandy soils with naturally high pH levels may need a dose of boron every two to three years. For every 20-by-20 foot (6.1-by-6.1-meter) area, apply 2 Tbsp (30 ml) of Borax by mixing it into your usual fertilizer. During the first two years of growth, remove any weeks that develop within 1 to 2 feet (30.5 to 61 cm) of the base of each vine. If left alone, weeds could deprive the young plants of much needed nutrients they would otherwise use to establish themselves. Scatter 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5 cm) of coarse, non-nitrogen-releasing bark mulch around the base of each vine in the early spring. This mulch should help reduce weed problems while retaining an appropriate amount of moisture within the soil. Even though scuppernongs are fairly drought-resistant, you should water the vines during dry periods during the first two years of growth. Mature vines are typically able to get the water they need from the soil even during dry spells. The only time you may need to water established vines would be between the bud-break and flowering periods. Only...

Article in English: You'll need to be able to see every stitch clearly to do the job properly. Don't attempt to remove your stitches in a place that's too dark, or you could accidentally cut yourself. Use the pair of tweezers to gently lift the knot of the first stitch slightly above the skin. Holding the knot above your skin, use your other hand to insert your scissors under the knot and snip the suture next to the knot. Use the tweezers to continue grasping the knot and gently pull the stitch through your skin and out. You might feel a bit of pressure, but it should not be painful.  Do not pull the knot through your skin. It will catch on your skin and cause bleeding to occur. It's a good idea to snip off the knot to avoid accidentally pulling it through. If the skin starts to bleed when you remove the stitch, your stitches are not ready to come out. Stop what you're doing and see a doctor to remove the remaining stitches. Use the tweezers to lift the knots, then snip with the scissors. Pull the thread through and discard. Continue until all the stitches have been removed. Make sure there's no residue left around the area of the wound. If you'd like, you can place a sterile bandage to cover the area and allow it to continue to heal.

Article in English: You'll need to be actively using your wifi network in order to make changes to its location settings. To log onto a wifi network, click the wifi symbol in the toolbar in the lower right-hand corner of your screen, then click your preferred network's name. You may have to enter a password before you can log on. This will open the network menu, from which you can select your current network. This will prompt a drop-down menu with network settings choices. Network sharing is optimal for private networks, since you don't have to worry about an unwanted member stealing your data via network share. When you first register a network, Windows asks if the network is "Home", "Work", or "Public"; your chosen category dictates the security settings for that network. Changing network sharing settings can alter your initial settings--for example, if you accidentally set your home network as a "Public" one, selecting "Turn on sharing..." will reformat the network to give it private attributes.   Click "No, don't turn on sharing or connect to devices" if you want your network to have public attributes. This will prevent your computer from being visible to other computers and devices (e.g., Bluetooth speakers or printers). If you do this while at home, you won't be able to use your other home-networked devices from your computer.  Click "Yes, turn on sharing and connect to devices" if you want your network to have private attributes. This will make your computer visible to other computers and devices, effectively bypassing the traditional "Private" network security. Be careful about doing this in a public location, since it can allow potentially harmful sources to access your computer. You have successfully altered your network location settings!

Article in English: You'll need to create a profile in order to save the levels you make, and to share them with others. In the top right corner of the web page, above the game window, click Register and fill out the form. Always check that you are logged in before you make a level, or it will not be saved. This option is available from the main menu. Once open, you can create a level from scratch, or click the editor menu button in the top left and load an existing level to use as a starting point. The pane on the left has several types of tools you can select. One easy way to get started is to select the star-shaped "special item" tool, and use the new pane that appears to place building blocks, cannons, a finish line, and many other objects. The cursor-shaped select tool lets you choose an object you've already placed and move it around. The selected object can also be resized, rotated, or have its parameters changed. For example, you can uncheck the "interactive" box on some objects to make them part of the background, instead of an obstacle you can collide with or drive over. If you're not sure what a menu option does, hover your cursor over it and wait for an explanation to appear. In the Happy Wheels level editor, you can make objects move, connect them into simple machines, or even create events that trigger when the player performs a certain action. The best way to learn is to try everything out for yourself, but here are some tips to get you started:  Use the joint tool to connect two objects, or one object to the background. Make sure to select the objects and uncheck the "fixed" button, or they will not swing or move. With an object selected, press C to copy it, then ShiftV to create a new copy. To test your level, press T. During the test run, press F to mark the position of the character in the level editor. This lets you see how far the character can jump or be thrown, so you can place the next platform precisely.

Article in English: You'll need to decide who's going to sleep where. You'll have to set up rules about when and where you two can date, if you decide that's an option while still living together. You may need to set rules about who can use the kitchen when, if you really can't stand to be around each other anymore. If space is limited, you may have to share certain commodities. For instance, one person gets the bed one night, then switches to the couch the next night. Now that you've broken up, you're going to need new emotional and social boundaries. You're both going to need to be able to say when you need privacy, and you'll both need to be able to respect that privacy.  You don't need to be mean about it, just firm. For instance, say your partner asks what you're doing this evening, and you have a date. You could just say, "I'm going to be out tonight," and leave it at that. When you were together, you had a right to know where your partner was most of the time. Now, though, you must respect that you don't have that right anymore. It can be tempting to fall into old habits when you still live together. However, it's important to set clear boundaries now that you've broken up. If you have sex together, you are raising false hopes that you may get back together. When you're a couple, you can work together to get the household responsibilities done. When you're separated, you need to be more clear about who does what. Have a conversation to divide up the chores, making sure they're even.  Of course, you want to keep more personal chores separate now. If you've always done her or his laundry, you shouldn't be doing that anymore. In other words, each person should be responsible for his or her own chores, as well as splitting up the household ones. That is, try to make spaces where you each can have your own privacy. If you live in a tiny apartment, that may not be as feasible. However, you should try to carve out areas where you can each be alone. For instance, if you have the bed one night, you stay in the bedroom while your...

Article in English: You'll need to draw a system of squares that will end up "inscribing" the spiral, acting as guide lines for your drawing. Gather your materials, making sure that you have everything––the list of what is needed is found in the Things You'll Need section below all the steps. This works by adding the two previous numbers: You get the next one starting from 0 and 1; so, it goes 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, etc. The length of one side of each square should equal a number in the sequence (the 0 is not needed for drawing any of the square), but the beginning point can be called (0,0), if we set it up that way. You will have a 1X1 square (use any unit of measurement you want, at any size, just be consistent) with a second 1X1 drawn next to it on the left side of the first, then down to put 2X2, and right for 3X3, then up for 5X5, and then left to fit 8X8. Below all that, put 13X13 and so on, to as large a square as your paper can fit. Draw each of these squares in a counter-clockwise pattern. It will finally form a spiral as you draw a curve through the squares (as instructed later). Put your compass, pivot point and pencil, as shown in the picture, with its length set at one unit (side of the first square) long. Turn it 90 degrees counter-clockwise. Adjust the compass so it is now two units long.  Again, turn it 90 degrees counter-clockwise. Then 3, then 5, next 8 and continue this process until the squares each have the curving spiral through them. Ink your drawing with pen when you are ready, carefully tracing along the penciled curve.  If you're shooting for exceptional accuracy, you can use a French curve to help you. With the spiral traced in pen, use your eraser to rub out the squares made in pencil. Congratulations, you've just made the golden spiral!

Article in English: You'll need to enable Dictation in order to use it. Like Siri, Dictation recognizes your speech, allowing you to type by talking. Dictation will send your spoken text to Apple's servers to be recognized and processed.  Open your iPhone's Settings. Tap General. Tap Keyboard. Slide Enable Dictation right to "On". You can use Dictation anywhere that you use your keyboard. Open an app to write some text so that the keyboard appears. The button looks like a microphone. This will start the Dictation process. Speak clearly and don't rush through your words. You don't need to pause after each word, but try to avoid slurring words together. Dictation will run everything you say together as one sentence unless you include punctuation marks. To insert a punctuation mark, you'll need to say it. For example, to write "Hi there!" you would say "Hi there exclamation". Below are a few of the most common punctuation marks:   . - "period" or "full stop"  , - "comma"  "[...]" - "quote" and "end quote"  ' - "apostrophe"  ? - "question mark"  ! - "exclamation" or "exclamation point"  ( and ) - "left paren" and "right paren" Dictation will automatically space and capitalize the start of a new sentence after using punctuation, but you'll need to specify when you want to start a new line or create a new paragraph. Say "new line" to start a new line in your document, or say "new paragraph" to start a new paragraph. You can use dictation commands to change the capitalization of your typing:  Say "cap" to capitalize the first letter of the next word. For example, "I love cap mom" would type "I love Mom." Say "caps on" and the "caps off" to capitalize the first letter of each word in a section. Articles will not be capitalized. For example, "caps on can I get the recipe caps off" would type "Can I Get the Recipe." Say "all caps" to make every letter upper-case in the next word. For example, "I all caps hate bugs" would type "I HATE bugs."

Article in English: You'll need to experiment more with combinations because mid-tone skin contains more color variations. Have the following colors handy:  Red Yellow Blue White Burnt Umber Raw Sienna Use a mixing palette or whatever surface you have available. A good alternative to a mixing palette is a sturdy piece of cardboard. Create a blob of each color onto your palette. Create an orange color by mixing equal portions of red and yellow. Clean your brush after gathering each color in a cup of water. Slowly mix in blue paint, in small increments. Depending on how dark you are aiming for, consider using a very small amount of black paint. Have the prospective skin tone that you are trying to emulate nearby. Compare the base you've created with the tone you are shooting for. If you're using a photograph, be aware of the lighting from the photo. Add small amounts of red if needed at all. It's always easier to add in small amounts than to start from scratch. Mix equal parts of burnt umber to raw sienna.  This combination will create a darker concentrate. Slowly add this mixture to your base as you see fit. Use this combinations as an alternative to blue. For a greater olive effect add the smallest amount of yellow mixed with green. Keep creating different colors until you have about five different skin tones that you like. It might be easier for you to have a few colors to choose from then limiting yourself to one. Use the color or colors you've created as a skin tone for your painting.

Article in English: You'll need to find onion seeds or sets to plant. Most garden and hardware stores will have them for sale. If you live out in the country, you may even find them at your local grocery store when the season comes around. You can also get them in the mail by ordering from an online mail-order catalog.  Purchasing an onion set allows you to skip straight to the planting phase rather than having to sprout seeds first. The sets come ready to be put in the ground. Pick the right onion for your climate. Long-day onions, which means they need lots of sunlight, do better in northern climates. If you buy them from a local store, they should be stocking onions appropriate to where you live. Short-day onions do better in southern climates, where they can grow through the winter, if it's mild enough. You should start out seeds indoors to give them more time to grow. You can even start as early as 8 to 10 weeks ahead.  In other words, you can start seeds as early as late January. Starting the indoors gives them more time to leaf, which leads to bigger bulbs. If you don't want to start indoors, buy plants to use outdoors. If you have a seed starter with individual cells, you can start out by adding 4 to 5 seeds to a cell. They should be about 1/2 inch deep. A cell is just the individual cup of soil that you plant seeds in.  If you have a flat planter inside, plant them 1/4 inch apart. You still want to plant them 1/2 an inch deep, though. While they are growing, your plants may get too tall. When they do, they'll start drooping. If that's the case, it's fine to trim them back to 3 inches.

Article in English: You'll need to get your hands on an R4i Gold card for the Nintendo 3DS.  There are several cards out there that claim to work on the new Nintendo 3DS system, but only a couple actually do work.  You'll want to make sure you are getting an original R4i Gold, and not a clone card with a sticker that claims it's an R4i Gold card. In their downloads section you'll see a list of all of the different versions of the firmware.  Download the newest or latest version.  They are listed from newest to oldest, therefore, the first link in the downloads section will be the newest version of the firmware. If you're using Firefox, your firmware file would be saved in your downloads folder by default - unless you have it set to allow you select your download location.  In any event, make sure you jot down where the file is, you'll see why in the following steps. Once you have it downloaded, install it on your PC.  The compression software will be associated with all .zip and .rar files after the installation is complete.  You won't have to reboot your PC after the installation, so you can immediately go right to the folder where you saved your downloaded firmware file. You want to select the extract option to extract the contents of the archive to your PC.  The compression software should, by default, extract the files into a folder that is named exactly the same as the archive you're extracting it from.  The firmware is important because without it, your R4i Gold card won't be recognized when you power up your Nintendo 3DS.  The firmware is what tells the Nintendo 3DS that you have a card inserted, and it also runs the menu system or file manager for the r4i card itself.  Think of it like the OS for a cell phone.  Without the OS on the phone, the phone itself won't power up, will not have any menus or any applications.  The firmware does the same thing on your R4i. It's a freeware / homebrew program that works much like emulators on the PC work.  You can find it by doing a google search for "download NesDS".  There are...

Secure each corner with an L bracket at the center. Another piece of 28" 2x10 is then centered and attached in the same way to create two sections in each box. Secure the center brace with an L bracket on each side at both the top and bottom. If you want to have shelves, you can add these in easily with some 1x10 lumber cut to 16 & 3/4". Adjust the shelf to the desired height and then secure the bottom with L brackets, two to a side. Trace the shelves onto plywood and cut out the backing with a jigsaw. Nail it into place by hand or using a pneumatic nail gun. You will probably want to add felt feet to the bottom of these shelves to keep them from scratching floors or moving around. These are easily bought from many different types of stores. With the shelves done, you will want to paint them and the Expedit shelves to be the same color. Use spray paint which is graded to go on laminate. Cut a piece of plywood to be 38"x75". With both shelves facing outward and the Expedit shelves dry fit between them, nail the plywood into place by driving two nails through the plywood and into the top of the sides of the end shelves. You can glue on a non-slip mat, like the ones which go under carpets, if you want to. Adjust the Expedit shelves so that they are flush with the sides of the end shelves. Ikea makes several useful inserts for Expedit shelves. You can add baskets, pull out drawers, or just basic doors, and all come in a variety of colors. Enjoy your...

Article in English: You'll never know the regular look of your hair until you give it a good soak in the shower. Once you get out and dry off, you should have a better indicator what you'll look like. With each new hairstyle, you should try applying different products (like conditioner and mousse) and drying it different ways. Gel is helpful if you're trying to make it spike, and the way you blow-dry your hair can even help determine how it will set throughout the day. Adding volume is usually associated with longer hairstyles, but even short hair can benefit from added lustre. Treating your hair with a dime-sized dollop of mousse is a quick and simple way to give your hair volume. If your current hair routine doesn't include something for volume, consider looking into it for your new hairstyle. Headbands are easy to wear, and can give your head an instant look of class. Headbands with short hair are arguably most closely associated with the gamine style from the 1920s and 30s. Adding a headband to your wardrobe is a good move if you're going for a more vintage look. Makeup is and always should be considered optional, but many find it to be especially effective in the case of a short hairstyle. Short hair will bring added emphasis to your face, and giving your eyes more vibrance with the help of mascaras or eyeshadows. Think of your hair as a frame or your face; look at yourself in the mirror, pick out what features stand out the most, and emphasize them further. A hairstyle is but one aspect of your overall look, and dressing to be consistent with your hairstyle will leave a stronger impression on people. Casual short hair on women is sometimes seen as tomboyish; playing into that conception can be seen as cute, but you can choose to dress very feminine if you're looking to work against it. Aim for tighter-fitting clothes, as bagginess doesn't work near as much with short hair. Trimming your hair regularly is a must if you're interested in having a short hairstyle. Depending on the length and the style you're keeping it at, a...

Article in English: You'll want a very hot oven to cook the perfect steak. Steaks that are an inch to an inch and a half thick work best for this method. That's because thicker steaks get more time to develop a wonderful outer crust before the inside cooks. Generally speaking, the thinner the steak, the quicker it becomes as dry and hard as it cooks. Excess moisture left on steaks will cause them to steam, not sear.Take a paper towel and wick away any moisture that's present on your steak. There are several opinions about how and when to salt your steak.  If you don't have a lot of time on your hands, salt your steak immediately before you place it in the pan. Salt draws moisture from the inside of the steak to the outside.  If you have more than 45 minutes to spare, try salting the steak three quarters of an hour in advance. The salt will draw salt out to the surface of the steak, but after 30 to 40 minutes, the steak will draw back the salted moisture in a process called osmosis. This gives the steak a wonderful taste and, some say, actually tenderizes it. The steak will start off over the burner, but the bulk of the cooking will be done in the oven. This method is used by chefs, cooks and restaurateurs the world over.  Use a neutral oil such as pine nut or canola oil instead of a pungent oil like olive oil. This helps respect the natural intensity of the steak's flavor.  You'll know the pan is ready to cook with when the oil starts smoking.

Article in English: You'll want to avoid hurting your hamster while cleaning out the eye. Being too rough while handling him for this procedure can cause injury that will require veterinary attention. Pick him up gently and don't start cleaning until he's settled down. Be sure the hamster is comfortable and has stopped struggling before you start cleaning out his eye. Either of these objects will work, as long as you use lukewarm water. Make sure the water isn't hot, or you could burn your hamster and cause damage to the eye. You shouldn't abruptly pull the eye open. The crust associated with the sticky eye will be holding the eye shut, and pulling it apart can cause damage. Instead, you have to break down and soften the crust that is keeping the eye shut. You can do this by holding the wet cloth over your hamster's eye for a few minutes. This will help loosen up the eyelid. He may even be able to open his eye on his own after this without any further help. Try two minutes of this before taking any further action. After you've held the cloth over your hamster's eye for a few minutes, the crust should be soft and loose. Now you can gently brush it away from his eyelid without hurting him. If the crust doesn't come away easily, don't force it or you could hurt the hamster. Instead, go back to holding the cloth on the crust and let it loosen further. If a few minutes go by and your hamster is still unable to open his eye by himself, you'll have to open it manually. After wiping away the crust, it should be easy to open the eye. Gently pull the lids apart until your hamster is able to open his eye on his own. Remember to stop right away if you have any difficulty doing this. Go back to holding the cloth over the eye and wiping away crust, then try again. If you can't get the eye open or suspect that anything else may be wrong, don't hesitate to go to the vet. If there is a problem, catching it early is key for your hamster's health. If your hamster is prone to sticky eyes, you can prevent the problem with regular washing. Take a wet...

Article in English: You'll want to feel comfortable while you're pregnant, and this means being comfortable with what you're wearing. Add maternity pieces to your wardrobe that show off your personal style, not ones that change it. Don’t feel like you have to dress in dreary black to look smaller. Let your wardrobe mirror this happy time in your life with colors that accentuate the glow of your skin. Gone are the days when maternity clothes had wild polka dots and other patterns meant to camouflage a woman’s growing figure. If you normally wear solids, then you should stick to your personal style. However, if you are someone who loves floral patterns, pair some bold-print tunics with leggings. These types of shirts and dresses accentuate your figure, whether you're pregnant or not. It's the perfect piece to keep you looking feminine and stylish throughout your pregnancy. Show off your fun side, and try wearing a wrap top in bold colors or prints. This is a flattering option that doesn’t leave you looking shapeless. The empire waist wraps around your upper midriff emphasizing your cleavage. Furthermore, you might even be able to keep wearing these dresses after the baby is born. Show off your new figure with a dress that hugs your curves. It's best to wear dark colors in these types of dresses. Try a black cotton dress that accentuates your curves, topped with a few simple accessories. Now's the time to show off your bust by wearing low-cut shirts and V-neck sweaters. V-neck shirts show off a pregnant woman's figure, and look especially flattering on them. This is optional, of course, if you prefer to dress more modestly. Chunky necklaces and bracelets or a big bag (that might double as a trendy diaper bag) can really make a fashion statement, and they are things you can continue to wear post-pregnancy. Don't forget cool scarves to keep you looking on point.

Article in English: You're 21! You should be excited, and probably anxious to get your first legal taste of alcohol in public. But try to remember that you'll be of legal drinking age for the rest of your life. You don't have to drink all the drinks at once. Starting the rest of that life with a two day hangover isn't probably the best idea. Prepare for a long night of fun and don't rush into things, especially when it comes to alcohol.  A good rule of thumb is that you should have no more than one drink per hour to keep a handle on your sobriety, although alcohol affects everyone differently. Different strengths of alcohol can sneak up on you more quickly, while some take a while to show effects. Keeping it to around one and no more than two drinks per hour will help keep most people in control of their faculties. One drink in an evening can be enough to register above limit on a breathalyzer test, and one drink is often enough to get one person tipsy. Always use extreme caution any time you're drinking alcohol, and never drive under any circumstances after consuming. Different drinks work in different ways, so it's important to get informed about the differences in the types of alcohol you'll find at a bar or a liquor store, if you're not familiar already.  A shot is usually about 1.5 ounces of hard liquor, and the average liquor is about 40% alcohol by volume, or 80 proof. A beer is usually about 12 ounces, although beer is often served in pint glasses, which are slightly larger. Regular beers and light beers like Budweiser, Coors, or other beers are usually between 2 and 5% alcohol by volume, while certain microbrews can be much higher, 6-8% in some cases. Drinking a single heavy Indiana Pale Ale, for example, will have about as much alcohol as two Bud Lites. A glass of wine is about 4 ounces, usually, and is usually between 12 and 18% alcohol by volume, depending on the variety. Cocktails are mixtures of different hard liquors, flavored liqueurs, sodas, fruit juices, and other liquids, depending on the cocktail itself. Most...

Не спешите. Знайте, что вы пьете. Съешьте что-нибудь сначала и выпейте много воды. Празднуйте с друзьями, которым можете доверять. Не оставляйте свой напиток без присмотра. Не смешивайте различные виды алкоголя. Подготовьтесь встать на ноги.


Article in English: You're essentially crocheting a tube around the elastic hair band, so you can play with the size. Note that you'll need more yarn for larger scrunchies.  For a bunchier scrunchie, plan to make your tube longer. For a puffier scrunchie, you can extend the length of the chain stitch recommended here. Different types of yarn produce very different textures.  Fun fur yarn and chenille are playful choices for children and the young at heart. Mercerized cotton has a sleek effect for a more classic hair accessory. Choose ribbon yarn for a sporty style. Note that textured yarns are generally more difficult to work with than plain or smooth yarns. Scrunchies can be obvious or subtle depending on the color and texture. Tones that contrast with the hair color stand out, while those that blend are less likely to draw attention to themselves. Bright colors like pink, purple, or yellow are a cheerful choice, while darker colors like navy and black work better with more neutral or classic styles. You can by a crochet needle, yarn, and knitting needle at a craft store or online. Hair bands without the metal joiner tend to last longer than those that have them. You can purchase these at a drugstore or beauty supply store. Some craft stores may also carry them.

Article in English: You're getting paid to like someone and act like their partner. There is nothing wrong with this, but you need to be honest with yourself about what you're getting into. You need to be comfortable being upfront with your man. If you're too passive, or just take the money without questions, you're at risk of being taken advantage of. That money doesn't come no strings attached. You're going to be expected, in some way, to do things for him as well, or else the money will run dry quickly.  You will, in some way, become dependent on your sugar daddy to keep your lifestyle going. If you have your own source of income, and just use him for amenities and luxuries, you can stay more independent. You should, of course, be honest with your sugar daddy from the get go. But even if you're honest, you're going to be leading him on. You need to act sexy and mysterious to earn your keep. No matter what the "rules" are, chances are good he's going to want more. You're going to have to be fine cultivating this while knowing that he isn't getting more. Many sugar daddies know fully well what they're getting you into. They start with gifts and money, but the ultimate goals are not always on the table. When you give someone that much power over you, you have to have trust in them. But sugar daddies, in general, aren't the most immediately trust-worthy people. You have to keep your head, and heart, on a swivel. At the same time, you're just there for the money, so don't feel like you don't have any power in the relationship either.  This is, in many ways, a business transaction. Keep it that way. If you're looking for deep or meaningful connections, don't get a sugar daddy. Any relationship built on payment is unlikely to lead to a true and deep connection. Silly as it sounds, sugar daddy relationships are very rarely like the plot of Pretty Woman. Don't let the dream of "free" money blind you from the realities of cash for sex relationships.

Article in English: You're going to fail — that much is a given. Never hesitate to be a failure, since life gives many chances. What will define you is how you pick yourself up after you've fallen. Don't give up. If your first attempt didn't work, don't quit..  Don't make excuses. Don't rationalize your failure by placing the blame on someone or something else. Accept when something is your fault. This will help you identify what you need to change to get better. Learn from your failures. Each failure is an opportunity to learn. If you make a mistake and refuse to learn, odds are you'll make that same mistake sometime down the line. If you make a mistake and learn from it, you won't waste your time making the same mistake again. Accept that life is unfair. It's a fact. Instead of dwelling on this injustice, consider how you can go out into the world and make it better. Think how to use the situation for your benefit.  For example, if you're working in a toxic work environment, take the initiative to reach out and support your coworkers. Remind them of their successes and motivate them where needed. Sometimes unexpected events happen that can get in the way of your goals. For example, an injury may prevent you from running a marathon. Create new goals or look for alternate ways of achieving your dreams. For example, you might become involved in a sport that is easier on your joints, such as swimming, or make a goal to recuperate through physical therapy. Remember that success does not guarantee happiness. Success is equated with achieving a goal, but don't assume it will always bring happiness. Instead of focusing only on your goal, make sure that you achieve a balance in your life. Aim for happiness in other parts of your life  Don't burn bridges along the way. A lot of life is about personal relationships, so don't forsake them. If you've invented a cheap, efficient way to make nuclear fission, but you don't have a supportive social network, will it be worth it? Value experiences over objects. Experiences, not money or...

Article in English: You're going to need a clear picture of the assets you share with your spouse. You may want to do this discreetly, without your spouse knowing, so that he or she doesn't make arrangements to block you from assets to which you're entitled. Speak with your lawyer and a financial planner to find out exactly what documents you'll need, and take the time to collect the following.  Bank statements from all of your savings and checking accounts Credit card statements Records of mortgage payments Vehicle titles and insurance information Records related to big purchases you or your partner have made since getting married Records of debts you owe, individually or jointly Income tax returns Lawyer fees and court fees are going to add up over the course of your divorce proceedings. You'll probably need more money than you expect to get through it all. Start a bank account under your own name and begin saving money you can use for these expenses. If you have a raise or influx of cash on the horizon, try to put it off until after the divorce is complete. Otherwise, it will be considered as part of your mutual funds, and your spouse will be entitled to some of it. Have all of your new bank statements and other important papers sent to the post office box, rather than the home you still share with your spouse, so that your financial matters are secure. Correspondence with your lawyer should also be sent to your PO box. Discreetly collect evidence like police reports, emails, photographs, journals, and anything else that you can use against your spouse in court to help you get a greater share of the assets or more custody of your children. This is especially important if you're divorcing for reasons involving abuse.

Article in English: You're not invincible, and everyone still needs to care for themselves. Make sure you eat healthy meals, shower, and do your best to get adequate sleep, as well as set aside time for yourself to do things you enjoy.  Not everyone is going to be able to balance their schedules perfectly, but you should at least try to sleep, eat regularly, and spend time doing something for yourself. Sleep is critical, so make sure that you sleep enough - if you can't get a full night's sleep because of classes or other occupations, try to find times to nap during the day. It's good to keep your plans written down somewhere, especially if you have trouble remembering them. Find out the dates of important things you'll need to attend (such as tests, extracurricular activities, homework due dates, and so forth) and put them on a calendar, or set reminders on your phone. This will make it easier to plan around your activities. It's easy to get wrapped up in hanging out with friends, partying, or going to school events, but those don't help you graduate! Keep your social time limited to after you've done your schoolwork, rather than before it.  On the flip side, try not to completely abandon socializing for fear of not getting into college. Spending time with friends is necessary and healthy, and can give you a much-needed break from the stressors of school. Try working with friends on things like study groups or even college visits. Some colleges and employers will potentially look at your social media profiles to see if you'd be a good fit for the school or the workplace, and things you posted years ago and forgot about can end up hurting your college admissions or job applications in the future. Find your social media accounts and hide or delete anything that could backfire, such as dubious groups or accounts, or anything depicting illegal behavior. Junior year itself might not be all you imagined it to be, but find the bright spots where you can and power through it. You'll be a high school senior before you know it, and...

Article in English: You're probably already eating healthy, balanced meals to make sure your baby is getting enough vitamins and nutrients. Incorporating foods that are especially beneficial for the health of your skin can improve your skin's elasticity, which helps prevent stretch marks from forming. Add the following foods to your daily diet:  Foods rich in antioxidants, which help nourish and protect skin. Eat plenty of spinach, blueberries, strawberries, and other fresh fruits and vegetables. Foods containing vitamin E, which protects skin cell membranes. Eat nuts, seeds, avocados, broccoli, and collard greens. Foods containing vitamin A, which repairs skin tissues. Eat carrots, sweet potatoes, mango, squash, and red bell peppers. Foods containing omega 3s, which keep cell membranes healthy and make your skin glow. Eat fish, fish oil, walnuts, eggs and oysters. Make sure to thoroughly cook eggs and oysters. Don't eat fish high in mercury. Mercury consumed during pregnancy has been linked to developmental delays and brain damage. Water helps detoxify your body and keeps your skin cells plump, which makes your skin healthier and more likely to bounce back from the stress caused by stretching. Get plenty of water by practicing these habits:  Drink 8 glasses of water a day. If you find it difficult to ingest this much water, carry a large water bottle that holds the equivalent of 2 glasses (16 ounces) of water. Refill it 4 times throughout the day, rather than having to refill a single glass 8 times. It will make drinking enough water less of a hassle. Drink herbal tea. Choosing teas without caffeine helps your body stay hydrated, and can alleviate the boredom of drinking only water every day. Eat watery fruits and vegetables. Eating vegetables that contain a lot of water is another great way to hydrate yourself. Eat big salads filled with cucumbers, fresh bell peppers, and celery. Choose watermelon, strawberries, honeydew, and other watery fruits instead of eating baked desserts. Exercising helps the skin retain its elasticity...

Article in English: You're probably nervous about screwing up, so take some of the pressure off yourself by making sure you don't have an audience. Opt out of movie theaters or group dates, and instead shoot for secluded situations like a quiet movie night at home, an outdoor picnic, or an otherwise deserted space.   Resist the urge to cut the lights completely.  You might think that total darkness will ease your nerves and hide any slip-ups.  For a first-timer, though, it'll actually make things a lot more difficult — you can't see where you're going, and you'll want to be able to gauge your partner's reaction.  Save the full darkness for later sessions when you know each other better. If you're alone in a bedroom or a basement, you can dim the lights a bit without being too obvious about it. Set the mood, if you like. If you know that someone you like will be coming over solo later and that there's a good chance you'll be making out later, then you can make sure your room is neat and tidy, that there's no chance a parent or roommate will interrupt, and that everything smells nice and is conducive to making out. If you sense a make-out coming on, put some effort into looking and smelling your best.  It'll boost your confidence, and make you irresistible.   You don't have to be too thorough about this or it'll make you more nervous, but if you feel and look your best, you'll have a better chance of having a great make-out session. Here's a quick checklist to go over:  Do a quick clean-up.  Even if you don't have time for a full-on shower, you can still do small things like wiping your nose, brushing your teeth, and splashing water on any areas that are starting to smell a little ripe.  Reapply deodorant while you're at it. Add a subtle scent.  For guys, apply one or two sprays of cologne around your throat and chest.  (Don't go overboard, since strong scents are almost unbearable at close quarters.)  For girls, use a few sprays of perfume or apply a scented body lotion to your neck, chest, arms, and legs. Freshen up your mouth. ...

Article in English: You've been craving his love, and as a result, your focus has been entirely on an outside source of love. Locate the loving spirit inside of you and apply it to yourself. In simpler terms: learn to love yourself again. Loving yourself is for your benefit more than anything else, but also keep in mind that loving yourself will make it easier for a future romantic interest to fall in love with you, too. You may have done wrong with regards to him, but more often than not, many of the reasons things came to an end were completely out of your control. This includes both his feelings and external influences.  You cannot control how another person feels or how he treats you. You can only control your own reactions to that person and the things he does. Similarly, if outside factors, like financial troubles, put stress on your relationship, most of those will be out of your control, as well. Regrets are only natural when you face a situation like this. Instead of ignoring them, acknowledge your regrets and release them out into the world by sharing them in some way, like telling them to a close friend.  Another option is to write out your regrets and complaints. Keep a journal specifically for that purpose, or type it all out on your computer. When you fill the journal or otherwise feel satisfied with what you've written out, you can destroy it. The act of doing so is often therapeutic. Avoid sharing your regrets with the guy in question, even if the two of you are still friends and even if he says that he's okay with it. Sharing your regrets with him will only strengthen the emotional bond you feel toward him, which will make it harder to let him go. Even if you've acknowledged the parts that were out of your control and released the regrets you have, part of you might still feel guilt over the way things ended. If that is the case, then you must take the time to forgive yourself for any role you had in letting things go sour. Acknowledge your mistakes, but don't beat yourself up over them. You're only human, and...
