Article in English: Mix 20-25 drops of tea tree oil with 1/4 cup water and 1/2 cup of distilled white vinegar in a spray bottle.  Shake the mixture well before using.  You can spray this mixture onto different surfaces, and then wipe the surface down with a clean cloth.  This cleaner can be used as an all-purpose, non-toxic cleaner in kitchens and bathrooms. Always shake well before using because the oil naturally separates from the vinegar and water. Trashcans can develop an unpleasant scent and are a breeding ground for bacteria.  Mix one cup of baking soda with 1/4-1/2 a teaspoon of tea tree oil. Use a fork to work out all of the lumps.  Shake the mixture into a fresh trash bag to reduce odor.  This a natural deodorizer. This deodorizer also works for diaper pails. Mildew grows on damp, warm surfaces.  It tends to be white or black in color with a fuzzy texture.  Mix 5-10 drops of tea tree oil and 1 cup of water in a spray bottle.  Shake the mixture and then spray onto the mildew.  Allow the mixture to sit for 3-5 minutes and then wipe with a damp cloth. The tea tree oil should prevent mildew from forming in the future, but reapply the mixture as needed. Washing machines can develop an odor and house bacteria. Run your empty machine on the hot cycle and add 10-15 drops of tea tree oil. This will get rid of any bacteria or odor. You an also add 2-3 drops of tea tree oil to a load of clothes to clean your clothes more effectively. Apply 5 drops of tea tree oil to wool dryer balls or 5 inch (12.7 cm) cotton squares (use an old T-shirt to create the homemade sheets).  Add the balls or homemade dryer sheets to a load of clothes.  These sheets and balls are reusable. Add a few more drops to the sheets or balls when you can no longer smell the tea tree oil. Many pests do not like the smell of tea tree oil.  Add about 20 drops to a spray bottle and then fill the bottle with water.  Shake well, and spray around doorways and cracks where insects and pests are likely to enter.

Article in English: Mix a ½ teaspoon of vitamin C powder with 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of distilled water in a small container. Make sure to mix the ingredients together until the powder is completely dissolved, to avoid a grainy mixture.  Only use distilled water, not just filtered tap water or plain tap water. This is because the high oxygen levels in tap water can break down the ingredients faster. Note that your water and vitamin C mixture will only be good for 2 weeks when refrigerated, and beyond that time period the serum should be discarded. The function of glycerin is to make the solution smoother and moisturize the skin. Add 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of vegetable glycerin to the mixture. If you already included glycerin in the original mixture, you should include less water.  In this case, the mixture will include 1 teaspoon of distilled water instead of 1 tablespoon (14.8 ml) of distilled water. Note that when glycerin is included, the mixture lasts for a month. Now, you are ready to store your vitamin C cream. Place it into the refrigerator to preserve its effectiveness and prevent breakdown. Darker bottles are better, because exposing vitamin C to light will decrease its potency and oxidize it quickly, making it less effective.

Article in English: Mix enough baking soda and water together to form a paste a little bit thicker than toothpaste. This will require slightly more baking soda than water. Once the paste is mixed, apply to rusted material and begin working in with an abrasive, such as steel wool or a toothbrush. Wipe off and inspect the site. You may need to use several applications of your baking soda paste in order to see results, but the process definitely works. Achieve the same consistency as the baking soda paste by using slightly more cream of tartar than hydrogen peroxide. Apply to rusted material, work in with an abrasive, and then wipe off. If you do not have hydrogen peroxide, you can also use water to similar effect. The active rust-busting ingredient here is cream of tartar.

Article in English: Mix for a minimum of 5 minutes, until you've achieved the consistency of mashed potatoes. Too wet and your mortar will lose strength. Too dry and your mortar will seize up too quickly. It's helpful to do a dry run and think about the layout of the stones as they will appear on the wall. Spending a little extra time configuring their placement now will save you the headache of excessive trimming later. If it's helpful, do the dry run on the ground instead of trying to hold the stones up against the wall. The basic arrangement of the stones should transfer. The stones themselves should be fairly easy to shape. You will be able to hide the trimmed edges later, using grout, so don't worry if the edges aren't perfectly rounded. The grout adheres much better to completely clean surfaces. If necessary, use a masonry brush to lightly moisten the stone, but do not saturate it. This will prevent the stones from drawing moisture away from the mortar, which will allow it to set up with a naturally stronger bond. Try to keep the backbuttered mortar about 1/2 inch (1.27 cm) thick. If you happen to get any mortar on the face of the stone, wipe it away with a damp towel before it dries. Turn any trimmed edges either directly up or down, away from the focal point. Press the stones into the mortar, twisting them slightly to squeeze out some of the excess and strengthen the bond. Use a trowel, joint tool, or brush to remove any excess mortar that has been forced beyond the finished joint, or onto the surface of the stone itself. Keep the joints consistent to achieve the most appealing result. You probably want your joints to be between 1 and 3 inches (2.5 and 7.5 cm) long. Take period breaks; step back and prospect your work every so often. If you are installing veneer across more than one face of a wall, consider getting cornerstone pieces. Most stone veneer manufacturers make them, and they add an easy naturalness to the project.

Article in English: Mix grease-cutting dish detergent into warm water until you get suds. Place the tools into the soapy water. While the tools are submerged, scrub them using a sponge or rag until the oil and dirt are gone, then remove the tools from the water.  The soap and water should mix more easily if you pour the detergent into the bowl before adding the water. Dry the items well enough for you to grip them while you sand the rust. Look for the thick patches of rust and start there. While you’ll clean away all of the rust, the process is easier if you work from thick rust to surface rust. For example, you’ll want to scrub off the flakes of rust before you attack the inset rust. Choose a coarse grit to begin scrubbing as it will make it easier for you to scrape off the rust. If the sandpaper gets dull, switch to a new sheet. Work over your piece with the fine-grit sandpaper to remove any fine speckles of rust and restore the shine to the metal. The softer quality of the paper should prevent damaging the metal of the tool. If your tool still has rust, then you may need to try a chemical remover. Once all of the rust has been sanded away, rinse your tools under clean running water to remove any debris. Dry them using a clean cloth or rag, making sure that no wetness remains.  If you do not get your tools completely dry, more rust can develop. Use WD-40 on your dry tools to remove any residual moisture.

Article in English: Mix one tablespoon of baking soda with one to two tablespoons of warm water. Liberally apply the paste to the area of the sting and allow it to sit for a couple of minutes. The baking soda paste should reduce itching and other discomfort.  Reapply the paste every couple of hours. If the baking soda fails to alleviate your symptoms, rinse the baking soda paste off and then apply a liberal amount of hydrocortisone cream. Allow the cream to sit. It may take up to an hour for it to sooth the sting site. Reapply the cream according to the instructions on the product. If hydrocortisone cream also fails, wash thoroughly, and then apply a liberal amount of antihistamine cream. Wait for up to half an hour to see if you notice a difference. In many cases, antihistamine creams have proven ineffective in soothing the symptoms of a caterpillar sting, however you may find that the cream works for you. After you have applied the baking soda paste or a cream, you can put a cold compress on the site of the sting. Place a bag of ice or frozen vegetables on the site of the sting for 10 to 20 minutes at a time. Reapply the cold compress every hour or two.

Article in English: Mix rum with just 1 other beverage, such as a soda. This is an easy way to enjoy any quality of rum. It’s also a drink that can be made at virtually any bar.  Go for the classic Rum and Coke by starting with approximately 2  fl oz (59 mL) of light or dark rum and adding a dark cola to taste. Pour over ice, garnish with a lime wedge, and serve. Try a spicier mixed drink, called a Dark 'n’ Stormy, by filling a highball glass with ice, adding 2 shots of Gosling’s Black Seal Rum, and topping it off with ginger beer. Garnish with a lime wedge and serve. (Note that Gosling Brother's Ltd. trademarked the name of this drink, so legally, it must be made with Gosling's rum.) Try a classic rum cocktail, the mojito. Use light rum, mint leaves, lime, sugar, and club soda for this refreshing drink.  Put several wedges of lime and fresh mint leaves into a glass and muddle them to release their flavors if you wish. Add ice and 2  fl oz (59 mL) of light rum. Fill the rest of the glass with club soda, then stir in sugar to taste.  Try adding other fruit flavors to a mojito, like strawberry or pineapple, by adding either the fresh fruit or juice. Make a daiquiri by mixing light rum with fresh lime juice and simple syrup (sugar boiled into a syrup consistency). This drink typically uses nearly any combination of fruit juices with the basic ingredients.  Build on the basic recipe of 2  fl oz (59 mL) of light rum, 3⁄4  fl oz (22 mL) of fresh lime juice, and 1⁄4  fl oz (7.4 mL) of simple syrup with fruits like banana, strawberry, pineapple, etc. Line the rim of a glass with brown sugar and a fresh wedge of whatever fruit you use for a common daiquiri presentation. Serve the drink neat in a martini glass. Make a Mai Tai by using a few more specialty ingredients than other rum cocktails. Use orgeat—a high-quality almond sugar syrup—and orange curacao—a liqueur from a dried citrus peel—to make this refreshing drink.  Combine 2  fl oz (59 mL) of dark rum with 3⁄4  fl oz (22 mL) of lime juice, 1⁄4  fl oz (7.4 mL) of simple syrup,...

Article in English: Mix together room temperature water with a few drops of mild soap or dish detergent. Stir the solution until suds are formed. Use a clean washcloth or sponge and dip it into the soap solution. Squeeze the sponge so that it is damp, but not dripping wet. Gently blot the stain with the soapy sponge or cloth. Do not rub the stain because this can actually push the stain further into the leather or spread the stain to a larger surface area. Then, wet a new cloth with water and dab the stain to remove any excess soap that may be left on the leather. Use a dry washcloth or towel to blot the cleaned area until the surface is dry.

Article in English: Mix up just enough epoxy to cover the joints between the panels. This is done by using a mixing cup (8oz.) and a stick. Then use a foam paint brush to apply the epoxy to the joints.  Try to cover each edge about an inch on either side of the joint, making sure that it soaks into the joint to get a good bond. Make it look like you're painting a strip down the joint. Remember that the joints of the panels and stems only get epoxied on the inside for now. Repeat this process for each of the joints. Try not to let the epoxy run down the sides of the panels -- you only want it on the joint, no runs. If you have any runs, use another brush to wipe them up. This just makes life easier when it comes to sanding the inside of the boat. Remember to check the outside of the seams for runs as well. Put two coats of epoxy on the joints and stems (stems are the ends of the boat), letting the epoxy dry before re-coating. Be sure the stems are pulled tightly together (using the stitches) before applying the epoxy. Don't use clamps to pull the stems ends together, stitches only! Each coat of epoxy needs about 24 hours to dry, so try to have a little patience while dreaming of that smooth glassy lake! When the epoxy is dry, check to ensure that the joints are fully epoxied with no dry spots (areas without epoxy). If they are, you can start cutting and pulling out the wire stitches.  Do this with care, as the panels' joints are still fragile at this point. Try not to break the epoxy join, and don't leave any wire in the boat. If you pull out a wire and the joint opens, put a stitch  back in and epoxy that joint area again. Once all of the wire is out, mix up some epoxy and wood flour (very fine sawdust). You can find wood flour at any boat building supplier. This mixture is known as a fillet.  Mix the wood flour and epoxy to a smooth creamy mixture -- it shouldn't be runny. Apply this fillet to the joints that you put the epoxy on. Make a nice smooth bead about 1-1/2-2" wide over the center of each joint, then apply a smooth...

Article in English: Mix your patterns up just a little bit, based on your list of changeable routines.  Take a different route to work. Bring your lunch instead of visiting the cafeteria. Call a friend and meet for drinks downtown instead of going straight home after work. Study in the library instead of at a coffee shop. Does it make you feel any better? More anxious? Often a lack of spontaneity leads to feelings of loneliness. We think everyone else is out having fun and you're stuck at home. Yet, when you're thinking of making plans, you go solo. Invite people along for simple things. If a few beers on the porch is an average night for you, it can suddenly be a significant event if it includes an old friend from high school. Catch up, make plans to do more. Spontaneity involves "keeping people guessing" as much as it does keeping yourself entertained. Next time someone asks about your weekend, try saying something like, "It was thoroughly exhausting. And yours?" Cryptic responses to questions will make people curious about you and how you spend your time, drawing them in and giving you more options for spontaneous adventures. If you develop a craving to eat pizza late at night or to become a vegetarian over the weekend, what's stopping you? It's easy to come up with reasons not to do things. Instead of worrying about whether your whim will eventually fail or whether you'll regret eating after 10pm, just do it. If you find yourself regretting not acting on these whims, especially, learn to recognize them and act upon them. When talking with friends, it can be easy to make vague plans for the future: "We should go camping sometime" or "Let's meet for lunch soon." Instead of doing this, decide on a date and an activity and set it. Turn "I hope we do something for spring break" into "Let's book a flight right now." Alternatively, if you are a habitual and intricate planner, decide to actively NOT plan. Maybe say you'll meet up with someone later, but don't think of anything to do together. Meet in an unfamiliar part of town and...

Article in English: Mixing boric acid powder or borax with maple syrup is the most common bait; some popular commercial ant poisons essential monetize this mix. Boric acid affects ants both externally (when in powder form; similar to diatomaceous earth) and internally (when ingested). The ants bring the poison (borax or boric acid) with them to the colony and spread it around. If you get the quantity and timing just right, you can wipe out a large colony, but it might take anywhere from several weeks to a few months. A bait that's too strong will kill the ants before they make it home, and a bait that's too weak will only weaken the colony temporarily. Be intentional about your increments. The idea is for the poison to spread all throughout the colony before it begins to kill the unwitting ants. The boric acid kills the ants; the water dilutes the boric acid; and the sugar attracts the ants. Try the following recipes:  Mix 1 cup water, 2 cups sugar, and 2 tablespoons boric acid. Mix 3 cups of water, 1 cup of sugar, and 4 teaspoons of boric acid. Try letting the mixture sit in an upturned lid or a low dish for easy access. If you have pets or small children, leave the bait in a container that will allow ants to enter, but isn't wide enough for larger creatures to get at the poison. Carefully shake the poison into the bottom of a metal can. Crush one side of the can, but leave a gap that is just thin enough for ants to get inside. Remove any deterrents, if you used them; the idea of baiting is to attract the ants so that they'll defeat themselves. Don't lure new ants with the bait, or else you might attract new colonies. Once there's a line of busy ant scavengers, place the bait next to the trail. The mass of ants will shift to swirl around the bait. Keep moving it further from your kitchen and closer to where the ants are entering your home. Be careful not to place the bait directly on top of the ant trail. You'll confuse them and interrupt their march home, making your baiting strategy less effective.

Article in English: Modelling should include the exact words and phrases which the child can understand, pick up and reproduce. This helps them learn how to phrase the things they want to say.  For example: you already know that the child dislikes playing with a certain toy, but in order to teach them to express it verbally, you can offer the toy and then keep using phrases or words such as "no thank you," or "I don't want to." When the child uses the desired phrase, give the desired outcome. For example, if the child successfully says "I want more please," then give them more. If you repeat the phrase several times and the child does not respond, do the desired action. The child will start associating the phrase with the action. Then try again later. In time, the child will start using the phrase. If you intend to give your child a snack or if it is time for the child to drink the milk, then you could model by saying “I want to drink ____ (point to the milk and say “milk”). Or say, “I would like a ____” (point to the snack and say “snack”). In time, the child will fill in the blank by themselves. It is best to avoid questions such as “Do you want this?” or “Do you want help?” because they will repeat the questions. Instead, say what they should say. For example: if you see them trying to reach something, instead of asking “Do you want me to help you?” try saying, “Help me reach my toy, please,” or “Please lift me up so I can reach my book.” Encourage them to repeat the phrase. Then, whether the child repeats it or not, help them. The child will start repeating it after you and it won’t make sense. When saying “Hi!” or “Goodnight!” simply say the word and don’t say their name after it. Or, you can say their name first and then pause and say what you intend to say last. When the child needs to be commended for a job well done, then instead of using the name of the child, use the congratulatory word alone. Instead of “Great job Alex!” just say “Great job!” or show it through actions in the form of kisses, a pat on the back, or a...

Article in English: Moisture will help your nails recover after a gel manicure, which strips them of a lot of their natural moisture. You can buy nail moisturizer at a local beauty supply store or department store. You should apply a nail moisturizer each day. Apply it to your nails and the skin around them.  Look for a fortifying nail and cuticle cream that contains peptide, which hydrates and strengthens nails. As washing your hands dries out your nails, apply moisturizer each time you wash your hands. Be sure to dry them thoroughly after washing, too as this minimizes how dry your nail can get. Once a week, soak your nails in warm milk. Milk will whiten your nails, removing color residue. It will also strengthen your nails as they absorb the milk's nutrients.  Warm your milk in a bowl, using enough milk to submerge your nails. You can microwave your milk or warm it over the stove. Your milk should be warm to the touch, but not so hot that you can't comfortably rest your fingers in it. Soak your nails for five minutes. Then rinse them and dry them thoroughly. Moisturize your nails when you're done. After nails have a gel manicure, they may have ridges and other uneven edges. It's important to use a nail buffer to smooth out nails, focusing particularly on ridges. Do so every other day until your nails have healed. Buffing also promotes blood circulation, which can strengthen nails. You can buy keratin gloves at a beauty supply store or online. They are an excellent means to strengthen nails after a gel manicure. Use the gloves for the time recommended on the package. The gloves can be worn during leisurely activities, like reading and watching television.

Article in English: Monad is a great place to level up, but it's only available once you've reached the top floor of the Adamah Block, floors 215–254 of Tartarus. It's recommended that you be at least level 60 before you enter Monad.  Winning one battle in Monad at level 65 can boost your level up to 72 in an instant. In Persona 3 FES, you will need to defeat the Reaper at the top of Tartarus in order to unlock access to Monad. It is immediately available if you start New Game+ mode in Persona 3 FES. The most essential party member for this method is Alice, as she has the "Die for me!" skill. It is much like Mamudoon (instant death to all enemies), except that it gives a higher chance of success. This skill will be essential for ensuring that the enemies don't get a hit on you. Chances are you are going to die often, so you'll want a save file that you can quickly restore to. It is located at the first floor of Tartarus, that huge double door at the right side of the stairs. You can't miss it. Find a shadow and make sure you get a preemptive strike by striking it from behind. The shadows at Monad range from levels 88–98, making it a great place to level-grind with instant kill spells. However, failure to get preemptive strikes will also cause your party to die instantly. If a Grand Magus, Vehement Idol, Chaos Cyclops, or a Void Giant appears at the higher floors, immediately abort the battle. These four shadows will either block or reflect your "Die for me!" skill. If you encounter enemies that cannot block or reflect Dark Spell, start spamming "Die for me!" until you win the battle. "Die for me!" gives an 80% chance to instantly kill shadows via Darkness magic.

Article in English: Money trees grow the most during the spring and summer, and seasonal fertilizing will help keep your money tree healthy as it grows. Use a liquid fertilizer and cut the recommended dose on the label in half. Stop fertilizing at the end of the summer. Your money tree doesn't need fertilizer outside of the growing season because its growth slows down, so it needs less nutrients. Make sure you're cutting the dose of liquid fertilizer in half. The recommended dosage on the packaging is the maximum amount intended for plants growing in perfect conditions. Using the full dosage may be too much for your plant and it could have negative effects. A pot that's a lot larger than your money tree will hold too much soil and moisture, which can lead to root rot. When you repot your money tree, choose a pot that's slightly bigger than the pot it was previously in. Drainage holes allow excess water to drain out of the pot and into a tray beneath it. Money trees are prone to root rot, which is caused by too much water, so it's important your money tree has plenty of drainage. When you're shopping for pots, look down inside of them at the bottom of the pot. If there aren't any drainage holes, look for another pot that has some. Use a premade bonsai soil mix, or make your own potting mix using a peat-moss based potting soil. Just add sand or other organic material to the peat-moss based potting soil. The peat moss will help the soil retain moisture, and the sand or perlite will help with drainage. To repot your money tree, carefully dig out the roots and soil from the pot it's in, taking care to stay near the edges of the pot so you don't damage the roots. Then, transfer your money tree to a new pot and add new soil to fill in the extra space. If you notice your money tree's roots growing out of the bottom of the pot, it's time to repot it.

Article in English: Most "warm-season" grasses go dormant and brown in cool temperatures, while "cool-season" grasses will not stay green during summer heat. Decide which type is best for your climate, or consult a local experienced in planting lawns, or based on the current time of year and temperature.  Cool-season grasses, such as Kentucky bluegrass, ryegrass, and fescues, should be sown in autumn, when upper soil temperatures are between 68 and 86ºF (20–30ºC).  Warm-season grasses, such as bahiagrass, centipede grass, carpet grass, and buffalo grass are best sown in spring or summer, when upper soil temperature is between 68 and 95ºF (20–35ºC). If you have one particular look in mind, you may want to pick a single grass species. More commonly, grass seeds are sold in blends (varieties of a single species) or mixtures (combinations of multiple species) to provide better resilience to disease and environmental factors. Browse blends and mixtures to find one suited to your lawn's sunlight levels, your preferred grass texture, drought resistance, and durability to foot traffic. Avoid purchasing low-quality seed blends using the following tips:  Look for advertised germination percentages above 75%, and an expiration date no more than ten months in the past, for best sprouting results.  Look for grass seed containing less than 0.5% weed seeds. Avoid annual ryegrass, which dies permanently in winter. Avoid rough "agricultural" perennial ryegrass, or mixtures that include more than 20% of any type of ryegrass, or it can take over your lawn with its rough texture and appearance.  Avoid grass seeds sold without an identifying variety. Divide large lawns into sections measuring approximately 20 ft x 20 ft (6m x 6m). Work on each section separately, following the steps below for that section before moving on to the next one. This lets you divide your work into multiple work sessions if necessary, while ensuring that every section receives all the care it needs. Spread grass seed using a seed distributor or lawn spreader if possible, to...

Article in English: Most babies are pretty easy and willing to be put into a baby walker, but some may be a little resistant. The resistant babies might just be having a bad day and not be interested in exploring something new, or they could possibly be afraid of it.  If they are really adamant about not going in the baby walker, the parent can sit on the floor near the baby walker and hold the baby on their lap so that they can see and touch it. If there are toys on the baby walker, the parent can use an excited voice while playing with the toys in order to get the baby interested. When the baby is comfortable with the baby walker, whether at the initial try or after acclimating, the parent should gently lift the baby and lower them into the seat part of the baby walker.  It is important that each of the baby’s legs goes into a separate leg hole and that their toes do not get caught anywhere. Once the baby’s bottom is resting in the seat of the walker, the parent needs to fasten the restraining belt because it will help to prevent the baby from sliding out of position. If the baby just sits in the walker, it is probably because they haven't yet realized their new ability to stand up without falling.  One way to encourage the baby to stand is for the parent to hold the baby by the waist and stand them up and then move their hands away from the baby.  Another way a parent can encourage standing is to allow the baby to use the parent’s hands to pull themselves up. After several attempts, the baby will usually get the idea that it is safe to stand while in the baby walker. Babies that are not attempting to stand on their own may just need a little more patience and encouragement from the parents. Learning to stand while in the walker is only half of the equation. In order for it to be purposeful, the baby still needs to learn how to get the walker to move.  For most, the initial movement is rather accidental. The excitement causes them to kick their feet and that motion thrusts the baby walker into action. However, other babies...

Article in English: Most beaches around the world have a type of beach crab that you can find along the shore. They vary in color, from the typically dark green common shore crab in England to the invasive Asian shore crab that has spread from its natural (and non-invasive) habitat in Asia to the east coast of the United States.  While you can find these crabs on most beaches, the rockier ones tend to be better for finding them, as the crabs like to hide under the rocks. Make sure you bring along a pail and small trowel or gloves. You don't really want to pick up the crabs with your bare hands, because they can pinch you, even the little crabs. The really small shore crabs can hide under little rocks, or burrow into the sand, but the best places to find them are under larger rocks. They like to hide under these rocks and when you turn the rock over, they tend to go scurrying into the protection of the sand.  For example, the shore crabs of the Pacific Northwest, in the United States, (called Hemigrapsus nudus and H. oregonensis) can be easily found beneath rocks. They range from smaller than a fingertip to the size of a half-dollar. You can also often find Hermit crabs on rocky shorelines. Look in tide pools and beneath rocks. This is where the crabs tend to collect to feed and move around. Tide pools are great places to find all kinds of marine life, including shore crabs. If you find a tide pool and you don't see anything at first, keep watching. There's always something going on a tide pool. Put a little bit of wet sand in your bucket so that the crab doesn't dry out. You can watch it burrowing around in the sand and scuttling side to side, in the manner that crabs move. This is an especially fun activity to do with children at the beach. Handle the crabs gently, especially the small crabs. They do have hard shells, but they are still delicate to human handling. Don't take crabs home as pets. Most places have laws and rules against removing the wildlife, which are so important to maintaining a thriving ecosystem. The little...

Article in English: Most blood blisters will heal on their own over time, but keeping the area clean and dry will allow the healing process to proceed as quickly as possible. Keeping it exposed to the air helps the healing process, but also limits the chances of infection. If your blood blister is in an area that would normally be rubbing up against something, such as your heel or toe, take precautions to limit the friction against the blister. It is more likely to tear or burst if it is subject to a lot of friction, which is caused when it rubs up against another surface, such as your shoe. Using a donut-shaped moleskin or felt pad is the most straight-forward way to do this. You can get donut-shaped pads made of thick adhesive felt or moleskin to reduce the friction while still leaving the blister exposed so it heals more quickly. Make sure that you position the blister in the center of the pad to relieve the pressure and friction. Blisters that rub against something regularly, such as those on the feet or fingers, can be covered with a loose bandage for additional protection. Bandages lower the pressure on the blister and reduce the friction, the two key things in helping a blood blister heal and lowering the chances of infection. Be sure to use a sterile dressing, and change it regularly. Before applying a dressing clean the blister and surrounding area. If the blister is extraordinarily large, make an appointment with your doctor. These blisters do sometimes need to be drained, and it is best to do so under professional supervision to prevent infection.

Article in English: Most capacitors are protected from damage by a metal cover on the exterior of the motor.  The cover must be removed to access the capacitor for inspection and testing.  A visual inspection might indicate oil leaking from the container, bulges in the container, or any holes in the container, burnt smell or smoke residue — all potential problems. Electrically checking a capacitor can be done with the ohm meter.  Placing the test probes on the capacitor terminals, the resistance should start low, and gradually increase as the small voltage supplied by the meter's battery gradually charges the capacitor.  If it stays shorted or does not rise, there is probably an issue with the capacitor and may need to be replaced.  The capacitor will have to be allowed 10 or more minutes to discharge before attempting this test again. Some motors have centrifugal switches used to switch the start / run capacitor (or other windings) "in" and "out" of the circuit at a specific RPM.   Check the switch contacts are not welded closed or are contaminated with dirt and grease that could prevent a good connection.  Use a screwdriver to see if the switch mechanism and any spring can be operated freely. A "TEFC" type motor is a "Totally Enclosed, Fan Cooled" type.  The fan blades are behind metal guard on the back of the motor.  Make sure it is securely fastened to the frame and is not clogged with dirt and other debris.  The openings in the rear metal guard need to have full and free air movement; otherwise, the motor will overheat and eventually fail. Check that drip-proof motors are exposed to directed water spray or moisture, and that open motors aren't exposed to any water or moisture at all.  Drip-proof motors can be installed in damp or wet locations, so long as they are installed in such a way that water (and other liquids) can not enter due to gravity and must not be subjected to a stream of water (or other liquids) directed at or in it. Open motors are, as the name implies, completely open.  The ends of the motor have rather...

Article in English: Most cases are related to chronic inflammatory diseases such as Crohn's disease and tuberculosis. Others may result from diverticulitis, tumors, or chronic trauma. A surgery or an injury can lead to the production of a fistula, too, as in the case of biliary or arteriovenous fistulas.  Recto-vaginal fistulas may be secondary to Crohn's disease, obstetric injuries due to birth, radiation therapy or cancer. Fistulas in children or infants are mostly congenital affecting boys more than girls. Any fistula generally comes accompanied by these symptoms:  Constant discharge (pus) Pain (related to infection) Bleeding Pain in the abdomen Diarrhea Loss of appetite Weight loss Nausea and vomiting A fistula, by definition, is a tube-like tunnel with 2 openings: 1 primary opening leading to another exterior opening called the secondary opening. Many types of fistulas are known, but 90% of all fistulas are anorectal fistulas. Physically, they can take on the following forms:   Blind Fistula: A link between two surfaces; one end is closed and the other is opened. This can turn into a complete fistula if untreated.  Incomplete Fistula: A link has only one external opening.  Complete Fistula: A link between an internal opening and external opening.  Horseshoe Fistula: A link in a U shape, between two external openings around the anus. Unfortunately, a fistula's symptoms isn't where the problem stops — it can also lead to its own complications. They are the following:  Secretions that produce inflammation around the anal area Tumors of the anal canal Radial fungus disease (very rare) Exposure to severe trauma Cracks around the anal area Infections of the digestive tract Because of this, it is highly advised that you clean the anus well after using the toilet, observe the rules of public safety and personal hygiene, and use wipes after using the toilet and throw away after each use.

Article in English: Most cases of gastroenteritis are linked with the invasion of infectious agents like bacteria and viruses. Bacterial or viral infection causes diarrhea and other symptoms by triggering the inflammation of gastrointestinal tissue.  These agents tend to elevate the amount of fluid in the intestine and colon by altering the normal function of the gastrointestinal tract in absorbing water and by speeding up the motility of ingested food items which leads to diarrhea. It can also damage the intestinal cells either directly or indirectly through its secreted toxins. Many kinds of viruses can trigger gastroenteritis but the most frequent types are the following:  Norovirus (Norwalk-like virus). This is the most common type of virus that affects school age children. It may trigger epidemics in hospitals and cruise ships. Rotavirus. This is the usual cause of severe gastroenteritis among children but can also affect adults who made contact with those children carrying the virus. It may also infect those individuals living in nursing homes. Astrovirus. This causes gastroenteritis, predominantly diarrhea in children under 5 years old and has been reported in adults. Enteric adenovirus. This also causes gastroenteritis aside from respiratory infections. Signs and symptoms associated with gastroenteritis commonly appear within 4 to 48 hours following exposure to infectious agents or contact with contaminated food or water supply. Symptoms may include:  Abdominal pain. Chills, sweating and clammy skin. Diarrhea. Fever. Joint stiffness or muscle pain. Nausea and vomiting. Poor feeding or loss of appetite. Weight loss. The prevalence of gastroenteritis is globally-high as it is almost impossible to avoid exposure with any of the identified causes of the disease throughout your entire life. However, some individuals are more vulnerable to gastroenteritis, for example:   Individuals who are immunosuppressed. It may involve infants, children, adults and elderly as they may have underdeveloped or weakened immune system which...

Article in English: Most cases of hoarseness are caused by talking too much, particularly if you have to constantly raise (strain) your voice to be heard — noisy restaurants/bars, concerts and industrial environments can easily trigger a short-term bout of laryngitis; however, laryngitis from overuse heals pretty quickly, so resting your voice for a day or two is often the most important first step in getting your voice back.  If you find yourself at a noisy venue, either talk less or get closer to the ear of  the person you're trying to converse with. Avoid shouting and having to repeat yourself. In addition to hoarseness or voice loss, other symptoms of laryngitis include: a dry throat, sore throat, a tickling sensation in the throat that triggers a dry cough, and mucous build-up in the throat. Keeping yourself well-hydrated will keep the mucus membranes of your throat moist, which helps to reduce inflammation and discomfort. With less irritation, you'll find yourself coughing and clearing your throat less often — which are factors that can prolong bouts of laryngitis/hoarseness. Avoid carbonated water because it can further tickle your throat and trigger a coughing spell.  Start with drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of purified water per day to rehydrate yourself and keep the mucus membranes of your throat/larynx moist. Dairy-based beverages can thicken mucus. Sugary drinks may increase mucus production and should be avoided. Consider warming some water (not too hot) to loosen nasal and throat congestion, adding a little honey and lemon. Honey can soothe a sore or irritated throat, while lemon juice is a mild antiseptic that can combat infections, as well as clear mucus from your throat. Infections of the throat can also lead to laryngitis. Viral infections are the most common, although bacterial and fungal (Candida) infections can trigger hoarseness also. If you suspect your laryngitis is caused by an infection, then gargle with antiseptic solutions that are able to kill a variety of microorganisms. A 1/2 teaspoon of salt in a...

Article in English: Most cases of sunburn are classified as first degree burns, which can be treated at home with the above advice and staying out of the sun for awhile. However, extreme sun exposure can also cause second and third degree burns, which need medical attention and treatment. Second degree sunburn is characterized by blistered and wet looking skin, redness and damage to the entire epidermis and upper layers of the dermis. Third degree sunburn is characterized by flayed and dry looking skin, dark red or ashen color and destruction of the entire epidermis and most of the dermis. Skin sensation is usually diminished with third degree burns.  Second degree sunburns heal within 10–21 days, typically without any scarring. Third degree sunburns often need skin grafts to heal and always leave scarring.  Other reasons to see a doctor after a sunburn include symptoms of dehydration (see above) or heat exhaustion (heavy sweating, faintness, fatigue, weak but rapid pulse, low blood pressure and headache).  For children, as a general guideline, seek medical attention if a blistering sunburn covers 20% or more of their body (a child's whole back, for example). . Moderate-to-severe sunburn typically involves skin blistering, which is a natural protective reaction of your body. If you notice blisters form on your sunburned skin, don't pick at them or break any. Blisters contain your natural body fluid (serum) and form a protective layer over the burned skin. Breaking blisters also increases the risk of infection. If you have minimal blistering on accessible body parts (like your forearms, for example) then cover them with dry, absorbent bandages. However, if you have lots of blistering and its on your back or other inaccessible areas, then get your doctor to care for them. Your doctor will likely apply some antibiotic cream and dress the blisters properly with sterile bandages to limit the risk of infection, minimize scarring, and promote healing.  Change the bandages one to two times daily (if accessible), but remove them...

Article in English: Most cemeteries these days have websites with the grave site decorating rules listed; if the one you're visiting does not, you'll need to call the office or city in charge of the cemetery. Every cemetery has different rules for decorating grave sites, and you need to know what rules apply before you decorate. What you place on the grave site will often be limited to just the grave site, meaning you can't encroach on any graves next to the one you're decorating. Even if you have space around the site, most cemeteries will limit what you place to your site. Some cemeteries will not allow you to place flags on grave sites at any time. In turn, they may put out flags on certain holidays, such as Memorial Day. Most cemeteries will allow fresh-cut flowers at any time. However, some limit the times that you can use silk flowers, such as not allowing them in the summer. Others will allow potted plants, but only if you maintain them. Anytime flowers become faded or die out, the cemetery will likely remove them.  You may also be allowed to plant a small bush or flowers in the ground over the grave, but this practice varies from cemetery to cemetery. In general, you must maintain them yourself and make sure they stay within the grave site. If the plants die, they'll likely be removed.  Similarly, other cemeteries will allow wreaths at certain times of year, such as winter wreaths only during winter months. Often, to place a wreath, you'll be required to use a tripod. Some cemeteries allow you to place holiday-related decorations. However, you'll usually have to place them and remove them within a certain time frame. Some cemeteries do not allow any other type of decoration. Items such as food, statues, rocks, lights, stuffed animals, and so on may or may not be allowed, so check before you bring them. Some cemeteries have more restrictive rules on mausoleums than grave sites. In other cemeteries, the reverse is true. Make sure you check the rules for the correct type of grave. For instance, some sites do not allow you...

Article in English: Most cheeses actually go well with sweet items, such as fruit. The next time you are eating or serving cheese, consider choosing two to three types of fruit to go with it.  Try dried fruit with hard cheeses, such as apricots, cherries, and figs. Try fresh fruit with fresh cheeses, such as apples, dates, figs, apricots, and plums. Cheese does not have to be paired with just fruit, nuts, or wine. You can also pair different types of cheese together. The next time you are eating or serving cheese, consider pairing three to five different types of cheese, all with different textures and flavors. Just remember to start eating the mildest cheeses first, and work your way towards the sharper ones. For example, you could try:  A soft, creamy cheese, such as Brie. A nutty, textured cheese, such as Comté. A dry, hard, aged goat cheese. Preheat your oven to 350°F (176.7°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place a wedge or wheel of Brie on top of the parchment paper. Drizzle the cheese with some honey. If you want, you can top the cheese with other goodies, such as dried cranberries, figs, rosemary, thyme, or walnuts/pecans. Bake the cheese until it is soft, then serve immediately with crackers.  Bake wedges for 5 to 7 minutes.  Bake wheels for 8 to 10 minutes. Be aware that some ovens are more powerful then others, and can over or under bake your cheese Adding a handful of grated or shredded cheese to your meals can give them extra texture and a hint of flavor. Here are some ideas to get you started:  Scrambled eggs and omelets Baked potatoes and mashed potatoes French fries (with Cheddar and bacon bits) Tortilla chips (Mexican cheese blend with sour cream and salsa) Salads (Caesar salad pairs well with Parmesan)

Article in English: Most coffee makers will have a water reservoir which you'll need to fill before brewing. Only pour in as much water as you'd like to brew, since the machine will continue to brew until the reservoir is empty. Always use clean filtered water for the best taste. Filtered water can also prevent mineral deposits from building up on the machine's tubing. Use the filter that comes with the machine. Your machine may have a flat-bottomed plastic reservoir for you to put a paper filter in or your machine may have a reusable metal mesh filter that is shaped like a cone.  If you use a paper filter, be sure to use one that's large enough to fit your pot. If you use a reusable filter, take care to clean it in between brewing. Use medium to medium-fine ground coffee that you've preferably ground yourself. Grinding the beans immediately before brewing will give your coffee more flavor. Use 1 heaping tablespoon of grounds for every 5 ounces of water. Place the grounds in the filter. You can always adjust this ratio, using more or less coffee or water to get your desired coffee strength. Store unused ground coffee in an airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture. Try to use it within a week. Your coffee maker should be clean and ready to go. Make sure the machine is plugged in and the empty carafe is on the burner plate. Some coffee makers have an automatic start feature which you can set at this point. If you do, you can program the machine to start brewing coffee at a certain point during the day, so long as it's prepared. At this point, water and coffee grounds should already be in the machine.

Article in English: Most commonly, glasses get stuck together when they are stacked immediately after they are washed. Glass expands when heated, and contracts as it cools, and this is sufficient to stick glasses together in some cases. Never fear: you can use this to separate the glasses. You will need to cool the inner glass and heat the outer glass in order to free them from each other. To avoid this problem in the future, be more careful about stacking glasses. Let glasses cool before you stack them. If you wash with cold water, this should not be a problem. If you cannot free the glasses by simply heating the outer glass, try to cool the inner glass. The outer glass will expand, and the inner glass will contract.

Article in English: Most confrontations are strictly verbal, but depending on the people involved, there may be a potential for violence. This is where confrontations can get really scary, and the nature of such a situation needs to be carefully evaluated. Your safety, and the safety of everyone involved, should be the first concern whenever any conflict arises.  Always trust your gut. If you don't feel comfortable in a given situation, excuse yourself and leave (if possible). Don't be afraid to ask for outside help/support, whether it's someone to moderate the discussion or simply someone to be there for comfort. Determine whether or not you can safely deal with the person/people initiating the confrontation. If you can handle it, then proceed with caution and consider bringing in a third party to watch or help. If you cannot handle it, then leave. If you feel that your safety or the safety of those around you is threatened, call the police. If you feel safe proceeding with the situation, try your best to remain calm and to calm the other person. You can do this by being aware of how you carry yourself, in terms of both spoken words and unspoken body language.  Use neutral, non-confrontational body language. Avoid crossing your arms, rolling your eyes, avoiding eye contact, or turning away from the person. This can convey frustration, resentment, or disrespect, which could make the situation worse. Speak in a calm voice. Be warm, respectful, and courteous, both in your words and your tone. Apologize, even if you haven't done anything wrong. Try to sympathize with the other person. For example, say something like, "I'm sorry that happened. I understand that you must be very frustrated." Resist the urge to give commands. Don't try to order a person to calm down.

Article in English: Most counterfeit perfume purchases can be avoided by going to a reputable seller. There are a variety of outlets for perfume, and it’s important to understand the benefits and dangers of each.  Department stores are always the safest way to buy perfume, as you have the advantage of being able to closely examine the bottle in its packaging and talking to the retail staff. This allows you to approach the staff if it’s possibly a fake, and you are able to return the perfume if it’s not authentic. Be very cautious at flea markets or swap meets where sellers can easily rip you off without recourse. Always carefully inspect the perfume before you purchase it, and if at all possible get the vendor’s contact information in case it turns out to be unsatisfactory. Feel free to ask the buyer very direct questions based on the information explained here. For example, "Can you please tell me the batch number?" and "Can you put up a photo of the text on the back of the box?", etc. When buying online through eBay or Amazon it’s important to check for product and online seller reviews. Make sure the seller is PayPal verified as this means they had to disclose their contact information. Check to see if they have a return policy, and demand one if they don’t. Pay attention to whether the listing is written with proper grammar and spelling. Although this isn't always indicative of the quality of the perfume, if it's really cheap for the "brand" it claims to be, then it's likely to be too good to be true and it isn't the real perfume. There may be exceptions, such as a stock clearance where a store is closing down, but on the whole, the price provides a good indication of authenticity. Check the manufacturer’s website to see if they have provided sufficient information on the packaging, bottle and the placement of the bar code. You might want to visit mall stalls to see how the bottle and cellophane wraps look on the authentic perfumes to get a good idea of what to expect.

Article in English: Most courses will have a syllabus or a program to give participants an idea of assignments or requirements. Go over the syllabus or program before each lecture so you know what to expect and can prepare any material or assignments so you don't get lost.  Break down the assignments lecture by lecture. This will help you prioritize what you need to get through the next lecture.  Ask friends or the professor if you have any questions about the upcoming lecture or reading. Most lectures are accompanied by required readings or assignments. Make sure to finish any readings or assignments so that you can grasp the concepts of the lecture and not get bored. This will also let you participate in discussions, which can also help you get through lectures.  Take notes on the reading as you read, which can help you in the discussions and may help you focus more effectively. You only need to write down the most important information. Remember that arriving prepared for your lecture can make it less painful and more manageable. Making sure that your body and brain are fueled properly can help you stay alert during a long lecture. Having a light meal or snack and drinking enough before your lecture may help you get through it more easily.  Avoid heavy meals before the lecture because these can divert blood from your brain for digestion and make you sluggish. Soup or a salad with some protein, cereal and milk, or peanut butter on toast are all good, light choices that will give you energy to get through the lecture without making your drowsy.  Hydrate yourself properly before the lecture. One of the symptoms of dehydration is fatigue and drinking enough water in the hours before your lecture can make it easier to get through it.  Be aware that consuming alcohol the evening before a lecture can dehydrate you.  Have a cup of coffee or tea before lecture if you like, but be aware that there is no evidence that it will increase mental alertness.  Chew mints or mint gum. Studies have shown that mints or mint gum can increase...

Article in English: Most dipping tobacco comes in small, hockey puck-shaped tins that are designed to keep the tobacco nice and moist, and the flavor strong. Chewers and dippers will "pack" the tobacco to one side of the can for a variety of different reasons, but mostly to push all the tobacco to the same place in the tin, making it easier to get a pinch, and because it looks cool. Packing smokeless tobacco does nothing to keep the tobacco "fresher," and it's perfectly fine if you don't want to pack it. Packing the tin is mostly a ritual, though it does help to consolidate the tobacco in the tin and makes it easier to tell how much you've got left. After closing the tin, put the tip of your thumb in the center of the bottom of the tin, and the tip of your middle finger in the center of the top of the tin. Rotate the tin so it's perpendicular to the ground. Hold the tin loosely, but firm enough that you won't drop it. Wrap your pointer finger around the edge of the tin, as if you were going to skip it on the water, like a stone. While relaxing your pointer finger over the can, move the can up and down quickly.  Start at about shoulder height and move the can downward with a quick jerk. With each jerking movement, your pointer finger will make a pleasing snap noise on the side of the can.  Repeat several times to get a good pack. Some dippers will do a slightly different version, snapping it backward, toward the side of the head, as opposed to downward. Others will flick the tin away from them, like throwing a frisbee. Experiment some to see what feels most comfortable for you. The loose tobacco should be packed densely to one side of the tin, making it easy to remove a pinch, no matter how little is left inside. Then, you're ready to dip and enjoy.

Article in English: Most dishes will require you to cut up the tomatoes anyway. You can choose how large or small you want the chunks to be depending on what you are making. Note that smaller pieces will heat through more quickly. If you are going to add the tomatoes into another hot dish, you may not need to cook them for as long. If you cut bigger chunks, you may need to cook them a little longer. Be sure to watch the tomatoes carefully so that you can remove them from heat if they start to burn or become too crispy. This amount works well for six medium tomatoes, so for more or less tomatoes you can adjust the amount of baking soda. Stir the baking soda so that all the pieces of tomato get a slight coating. The baking soda will fizz as it reacts with the acid of the tomatoes. Once the fizzing has stopped, which may take a minute or so, finish cooking the dish. The baking soda will reduce the overall acid content of the dish and does not usually alter the taste of the dish.

Article in English: Most dizi makers will carve their initials into the body of the dizi, and others will also include a Chinese poem or other saying along the body. The key of the dizi is typically carved into the flute next to the third finger hole. Some dizis are lacquered or painted, while others are natural and bare. One option is to use linseed oil to coat and finish the dizi. Pour a little bit of linseed oil on an old rag and gently rub it into the body of the flute. Allow it to dry before adding accessories, attaching the dimo membrane, or playing the flute. These can be purchased at Asian markets or online. Attach a silk tassel to the bottom hole of the dizi. Red is typically a color associated with good fortune in China and can be an appropriate color choice for a tassel.

Article in English: Most dorm rooms are equipped with extra-long twin beds, so when you buy comforters and sheets, you should make sure that the size of the bedding you buy will match the size of the bed you will have.  You will need pillows and pillowcases, bed sheets, a blanket, and a quilt or comforter. Also consider buying a mattress pad to make your bed more comfortable. Many dorm rooms are equipped with some form of lighting and mirrors, but it usually will not hurt to buy a few of these yourself.  If your dorm does not come with one, buy a full-length mirror. Consider buying a desk lamp and floor lamp to supplement the overhead lighting installed in the room. An alarm clock is an absolute must, unless you have an alarm on your cell phone that you rely on. Even if you do use your cell phone alarm, having a backup alarm clock can still be a good idea. You should also buy supplies that can help you fall asleep faster so that you can wake up well-rested. These may include earplugs and an eye mask. Odds are, you can just bring the same clothes you wore throughout your high school years. There might be a few instances in which you will want or need to buy new clothes.  Prepare for bad weather. Have a raincoat, rain boots, umbrella, and snow boots, as needed. If the climate you are moving to differs from the climate back home, buy clothes that are more suited toward the climate you'll be heading to. Some items you need to bring with you will not stay out once you get to campus, so you should buy a few storage bins to help you store any excess materials until you need them. Also consider buying temporary racks and shelving to store shoes, books, and other belongings that you need to access easily. While this is not a necessity, you should consider buying things to decorate your walls and door. This is the room you will be living in for the majority of the year, after all, so you'll want it to be comfortable for you. Options worth considering include:  Bulletin board Posters Dry-erase message board and pens for your door If you...

Article in English: Most electronics have the same anti-glare technology as polarized glasses. You’ll be able to test the polarization by looking at the screen. Open a white screen, because the brightness will make the effect of the test more prominent. Once you’re in front of the computer, just put the sunglasses on like you’d normally wear them. Make sure you’re sitting directly in front of the screen. It might be helpful to elevate your computer screen to eye level if it isn’t already positioned there. While you’re in front of the screen, tilt the top of your head to the left or right side of your body. If the sunglasses are polarized, the screen will appear to turn black due to the anti-glare properties cancelling each other out. If one side doesn’t work, try tilting your head to the other side. If that doesn’t work, the sunglasses are not polarized.

Article in English: Most extra-short haircuts are achieved with an electric razor and a pair of scissors.  Make sure you have the guard you want for the razor (which will determine how much of your hair it cuts off) and sharp scissors. You can wash it, or simply dampen it with a spray bottle before you start.  Wet hair is easier to cut, and makes cleanup a breeze. For a traditional men's cut, the hair on the top of your head should be slightly longer than it is on the sides and back.  Start an inch or two (2.5-5 cm) above your ear, and follow that line around the back of your head the other ear, moving the razor in a straight-up motion as you cut. Then, starting at your forehead, trim the top of your hair by moving the razor back over the natural curve of your head. Catch any spots you missed between these two areas. Put the shorter guard on your razor. Start with your sideburns, moving the razor in an upwards motion. Cut just as far as the point where you started using the longer guard.  On the back of your head, start the razor at your neck and move upward, again stopping where you cut with the longer guard. Don't worry about the difference in length for now - that's where the scissors come in. Using the index and middle fingers of your non-dominant hand, grab a section of longer hair that's just above where you switched guards.  With the scissors, carefully trim the hair until the two different lengths blend into each other. Do this all the way around your head until the two sections look well-blended and the there is no obvious difference between the two lengths. Have a friend double-check the back of your head, or use a hand mirror in front of a larger mirror to check it yourself. If the "long" part of your hair on top is shorter than finger-width, then skip using your index and middle fingers to pull out sections.

Article in English: Most flowers air-dry best when they are just beginning to open. They will continue to open slightly as they dry, and a fully open flower may lose its petals. This method works best for small, sturdy blossoms, such as lavender or larkspur. Wilting and pest damage becomes more obvious after drying. Choose only the best flowers, and pick extra in case of problems. The flower is ready when the petals are crisp to the touch. Occasionally a bunch will take longer than four weeks, usually because the room isn't ideal or the flower petals are unusually thick. The stems usually dry completely straight. If you want a more natural, curved look, submerge the stems in warm water until soft. Bend them however you like, and hold them in position with weights until they dry again.

Article in English: Most games that you download will be compressed using advanced archive processes that aren't built-in to Windows. In order to extract the files for these games after downloading them, you'll need a special extraction program. Two of the most popular include 7-Zip (7-zip.org) and WinRAR (rarlab.com).  7-Zip is a free program that can open most compressed files, including RAR and 7z formats. It is the most recommended program for this process. The trial version of WinRAR will allow you to open most formats forever, but you'll be bugged about registering after the trial period is up. Most games are distributed using BitTorrent, which is a popular method of sharing large files between computers. In order to use BitTorrent, you'll need a client that can load torrent files and connect you to other users. One of the most popular free clients is qBittorrent (qbittorrent.org. If you choose qBittorrent, you won't need to worry about any additional adware. If you choose a different client such as uTorrent, read each installation screen carefully so that you don't install any unwanted software. Downloading games using torrents is one of the easiest ways to get infected by a virus. To help prevent against this, make sure that your have an antivirus program installed, and that it is up to date. You can use Windows Defender, which comes installed with Windows, or a third-party solution such as BitDefender or Kaspersky.  See How to Turn on Windows Defender for instructions on enabling it. For instructions on installing a different antivirus program, see How to Install an Antivirus. You should only have one antivirus program installed at a time. Right-click on your antivirus's icon in the system tray and select "Update" to check for and download any available updates. Many games come in ISO format, which is a copy of a disc. To use the ISO file, you'll need to either burn it to a disk, or mount it in a virtual drive. If you plan on installing a lot of different games, using a virtual drive can save you a lot of money on blank...

Article in English: Most girls who date bad boys are convinced that they can change them. Though there are some exceptions to this rule, most of these girls end up disappointed when their favorite bad boy won't change his ways. If you want to really enjoy your relationship with your bad boy, then you shouldn't try to domesticate him and make him do things he doesn't want to do; instead, you should appreciate him for who he is instead of making him take yoga or spend an afternoon with your Aunt Mildred if that's not what he's into. If you're dating a bad boy, then chances are that you're not looking for marriage with him. Though some bad boys can change, if you want to enjoy your relationship with him, then you should work on being present in the moment and enjoying every moment you spend together in the now instead of worrying about what lies ahead. Have a great time hanging out with him, dining with him, drinking with him, riding his motorcycle, and letting your hair blow in the wind. If you want the relationship to last, then the best thing you can do is to focus on fun.  When you find yourself constantly worrying about where the relationship is going, you can have a talk with the bad boy about it, but you should know that this could discourage him. Think of your relationship growing from week to week, instead of thinking about what you'll be doing in a year. If you want a guy with a clear future plan, then you should try going for some of those nice guys who are always asking you out at work. There's a difference between being a bad boy and being abusive. If the guy you're with is either abusive to you verbally or physically, then it's time to remove yourself from the situation ASAP. No guy is worth the pain and suffering you'll have to face from abuse, even if he keeps promising that every time is the last and that he'll change his ways. Bad boys can be fun to date as long as they don't pose any harm to your well-being. If you're being abused, talk to a close friend or family member and create a plan for leaving the...

Article in English: Most hair products contain chemicals that are effective at cleaning your hair but may cause much damage. Some people aren't affected by these chemicals, but if you're worried about thinning hair, it's best to avoid them.  Sodium laurel and laureth sulfates are cleaning agents found in most shampoos. They strip the hair of natural oils, which can cause further damage to hair that has already been dyed or chemically treated. That said, there's not enough research to prove that sulfate-free shampoos are gentler or safer.  While results may vary by hair type and quality, as a general rule, choose organic products or products made with natural oils and soap agents for the lowest risk to your hair. Our scalps produce natural oils that coat the hair and protect it from outside damage. When these oils are washed away every day, the hair becomes weaker over time.   Everyone's body is different, but most people should be able to comfortably wash their hair two to three times a week without it getting too oily. If your hair is naturally quite oily, you might want to wash it three to four times a week instead.  Washing too infrequently can also be harmful. People with thinning hair often find themselves more susceptible to dandruff and scalp conditions which can be avoided by regular (though not daily) washing. Use a "dry shampoo" to treat your hair in between washes. It keeps it looking fresh and has the added benefit of making hair look thicker. Dry shampoo is a powder you can comb through your hair, especially around the roots, between washings. Chamomile, lavender, rosemary, thyme, geranium, cedarwood, almond oil, coconut oil, Indian gooseberry oil and many more, help thicken hair follicles.  Apply 10 to 20 drops of your chosen oil to your scalp, and massage the oil in with your fingers. Use you fingers to rub the oil down to the tips of your hair. You could also mix 3 to 5 drops of essential oil into your shampoo or conditioner when washing your hair. Deep condition your hair by adding five to 10 drops of essential...

Article in English: Most hotels have safes so that travelers can store important belongings while the room is being cleaned or they’re out on the town. Before you go out, place your passport, house keys, excess cash, and expensive jewelry in the safe and lock it. If you are pickpocketed, you’ll only lose some of your money and belongings. Always leave some extra cash in your hotel safe. In the event that you are pickpocketed, you’ll still be able to get a ride and feed yourself before you can rectify the situation. Keep your phone in an interior pocket that isn’t easily accessible to pickpockets. Try your best to avoid pulling it out frequently, especially when you’re focused on finding directions. If you do have to take your phone out, hold it firmly with both hands and don’t stare at it for more than 5-10 seconds at a time.  When you take your phone out to take photos, always put it back in your pocket when you’re done. Turn down offers from strangers to take your photo with your phone. Print the maps that you need at the hotel to avoid needing to use your phone to figure out where you are. Even if you don’t want to use it, it’s still a good idea to keep your phone on you. You never know when you’re going to need to make an emergency call. If you wear jewelry, tuck your necklaces into your shirt so that they can’t be ripped off of your neck. Don’t bring your watch with you if it’s worth more than a few dollars. Avoid bringing jewelry with a lot of gemstones on them, regardless of whether they’re real or not.  Unless they’re incredibly loose, your rings are probably fine. They’re pretty hard to lift without you noticing. Be wary of wearing rings with gemstones in them, though. If you’re wearing a lot of jewels, pickpockets are more likely to assume that you’re carrying a lot of cash. If you can, don’t bring any jewelry on your trip. Unless you’re going out to a fancy dinner or show, there’s no need to bring it along.

Article in English: Most internet-connected devices have a symbol that resembles a dot with arching lines on the display to indicate your Wi-Fi connection and strength.  The more arching lines displayed, the stronger your Wi-Fi connection.  If one device is not getting no or a poor Wi-Fi signal, the problem is most likely with the device.  If it is happening on all devices, it is most likely a problem with your internet service.  You can find the Wi-Fi symbol in the following locations on the following devices.

Article in English: Most kids want to avoid chores at all costs. Mature kids know that chores are things that have to be done, even if they're not fun. Help out your parents whenever you can by volunteering for chores, to make life a little easier for them. This will make you seem very grown up.  Help with yard work in the spring and summer time, or help rake leaves in the fall when they're on the ground.  You can also shovel the driveway if there is snow during the winter months. Keep your room as clean as possible. Tidy up after yourself when you make a mess. Keep your toys and school supplies clean, and in their proper place. Extra bonus: Help clean up other people's messes as well. If you help pick up after your sibling instead of whining about it to your parents, that will seem very mature. Mature kids respect their parents, which means they will be treated with respect. Immature kids whine and complain, making their parents' job much more difficult. If you want to act more mature, listen to what your parents say. Listen even when you don't like it, and then do what you're told.  Be honest with your parents as much as possible. If you don't think it's right that you should have to clean your room on a Saturday, tell them so. But don't whine and cry about it like a little kid. Write out your reasons. Tell them clearly. Never make your parents ask you to do something more than once. If you're acting up and they tell you to be quiet, be quiet. Immature kids are unable to control themselves, but mature kids are. No whining, shouting, or baby-talking. If you're going to act like a grown up, speak like one. Use a clear, firm voice when you have something to say. If you don't have anything to say, just be quiet.  Slow down when you're speaking, and think about what you say. Kids tend to talk very quickly and stumble over their words. Make sure to pronounce the words correctly, and learn how to say words that you're not sure about. If someone is in another room, stand up and walk into that room to speak to them.

Article in English: Most kits  contain the script, the rules of the game, ideas for costumes, and recipe ideas. Therefore, you should try to include these elements in your own design.  If you decide to create your own game, make sure the story is somewhat believable, scary, and interesting. Divide your story up into scenes which can be acted out as the evening progresses. Give each character his or her own backstory that's not only unique, but that also fits in with the clues. Make sure that it is possible to discover the villain by taking note of the clues, asking questions of the other protagonists, and piecing it all together. Although there will be several suspects, of course, only the guilty person should fit the bill. Don’t be afraid to experiment with offbeat ideas, such as a mystery within a high fantasy theme or apocalyptic wasteland. Obviously, if you go with a ready-made kit, you’ll be limited by what themes are available, but even so, you can still find one that is adaptable to your needs. For smaller gatherings of no more than eight to 10 people, your home should suffice. However, for larger groups, a dining hall or other public location would be better. Another consideration for the location is the time of year. Unless you live in a temperate climate such as California, you’re not going to want to hold your party outdoors during the winter. Your theme will determine what kinds of objects you’ll need to create the setting for your mystery. You can often make use of items you have around the house, like old shoes for making footprints or knives for the murder weapon. Otherwise, thrift shops and garage sales are good places to find props, and are relatively inexpensive, too. Some people decide to give out one prize to the person who solves the murder, while others decide to give out prizes for other accomplishments, as well. Giving one prize works best to bring out the guests’ competitive instincts, while multiple prizes encourage more wheeling and dealing. Multiple prize ideas include things like best costume, best...
