Article in English: Grab her attention with soft, kind eye contact. Hold here eyes for longer than a second or two, until there is a breathless, timeless space that surrounds you. The world disappears, and it's just the two of you. To get her attention, keep it minimal and subtle:  Touch her shoulder, upper arm, or cheek and say her name. A simple, quiet "hey" is still the most effective way to get her attention. "I need you for a moment" or "just one more thing" is a great, noncommittal way to hold her attention for an end of the date kiss. Move in for a big, full-body hug to see if she's feeling equally romantic. Polite, simple, and to the point, these lines get right to the point and put it in her court. Keep eye contact when talking, and keep your head close enough that you can both move in when she says yes.  "Can I kiss you?" "Can we kiss?" "Is it okay if I kiss you right now?" Honesty, in all things, is the best policy. So just tell her you want to kiss her -- it's not forceful or rude, just confidently romantic.  "I want to kiss you right now." Unless she says "no," move in slowly after you say it. "I'd love a kiss before I go." "Let's kiss." "Write her a note saying "kiss me?" or "I want to kiss you," if you think she'd like the cute, romantic gesture. Then move in wordlessly. Don't dive for lips, just move in slowly. Give her the chance to move in or gracefully bow back out. If she isn't feeling it and doesn't want to kiss, she'll say no and lean away.  Move in slowly. Half-close your eyes Let her come part way, meeting you for the kiss. Hold her close with a hug, keeping your faces close together. If she keeps eye contact, move in. There are a ton of reasons she might say no, but none of them need to be returned with rudeness. She just might not be ready yet. Be sure to politely apologize for misreading things, then move on -- she'll appreciate it.  "I'm sorry. I had a wonderful time tonight-- I'll see you around. "I misread things, I'm sorry. Have a great night." "I didn't mean to put you on the spot like that, I'm sorry."

Article in English: Grasp the wing in one hand, and the area on the body around the wing joint with the other. Bend the wing back and twist it a bit until the joint pops, then cut through it with the tip of the knife. Locate the gap between the bone and the socket, apply a little pressure, and it should pop free with a little help. Continue working your knife down until you get to the leg. Grasp the leg in one hand, and the area on the body around the leg joint with the other. Bend the leg back and twist it a bit until the joint pops. Cut through the leg joint with the tip of the knife, reach in and find the gap between the leg bone and the socket, much as you did with the wing. The keel is the cartilage on the breastbone, and is the closest to the skin on the front, so you want to take extra care not to puncture the skin at this point. If you haven't already started working your knife down the other side of the carcass, do that now. Otherwise, you should be very close to having removed the carcass entirely from the meat, and there's just a little left to go.  Carefully cut the meat away from the keel. Let your knife scrape alongside the bone, using it to do the work for you. You should be using smooth knife strokes and short motions, rather than stabbing and ripping at the bird. When you work around the keel, pull the ribcage free and discard it. Before tossing the carcass, consider using it to make stock or soup. It's an excellent starter. You should now have a very large flattish piece of meat, but with the leg bones and the wing bones still intact on the inside. To remove the wings, clip off the wing-tips with your knife and push the bone back toward what was the inside of the carcass. Use the edge of your knife to start scraping the meat away until you can pull the bone through entirely. It's usually easier to use the knife to scrape, rather than trying to get too intricate. You'll conserve more of the meat this way and it'll go much more quickly. Keep scraping away at the small bone until you've pulled it through. To...

Article in English: Grass clippings make great organic fertilizer as they provide moisture for the soil and prevent weeds from cropping up. Use freshly cut grass from lawns that have not been treated with herbicides. Sprinkle a ½ inch (1.27 cm) layer of grass clippings on the soil as fertilizer. Depending on how much grass you have, you may be able to cut grass clippings for your garden every one to two weeks. Green manure is a good, natural fertilizer for your garden. Combine wheat, oats, rye, clover, peas, vetch, buckwheat, and broad beans. Then, spread the manure over the soil in your garden. Do this once a season. You can buy the ingredients for green manure at your local gardening store or online. Wood ash and sawdust add calcium and potassium to the soil. They can also help to raise the pH of the soil if it is too acidic, making it more hospitable to neutral pH plants like vegetables. Sprinkle wood ash or sawdust to the soil. Use five pounds (2.5 kg) of wood ash or sawdust for every 100 square feet (9 square metres) of soil.  You can get wood ash from the bottom of your fireplace or your fire pit. You can get sawdust from your local woodshop.

Article in English: Grass does not grow well in areas of heavy shade, but regrettably, moss does. If you cannot control the amount of shade your lawn receives, try planting flowers and other plants that thrive in shaded areas to prevent moss from growing instead. Plants that love shade include astilbe, brunnera, heuchera, hostas, hellebore, ferns, hydrangea, pulmonaria, and tiarella. There are other shrubs and flowers that do well with shade, as well. Simply look for shade-loving plants the next time you visit a gardening store or plant nursery. Moss grows well in the shade, but most normal varieties of grass do not. If you want to make your lawn healthier, consider clearing away removable obstacles from your yard so that more natural sunlight can reach your grass.   Keep piles of firewood, bricks, or other debris inside storage areas like your garage or garden shed. When building a new shed, think about how the position of the structure may cast shade over the lawn. Trim large trees and heavy shrubs so that more light can peek through. Moss thrives in areas of heavy moisture. If your lawn is doing poorly for other reasons and is already vulnerable to moss, excessive watering will only hasten the arrival of moss.   You should especially avoid watering your lawn at night in the early fall or spring, during which moss growth is most persistent. If your lawn is naturally soggy, try improving its ability to drain by changing the grading of the lawn, aerating the lawn, dethatching the lawn, or installing subsurface drain lines. While too much moisture will create the ideal conditions for moss, too little moisture can weaken your grass and make your lawn more vulnerable to moss, too. When lawns are too dehydrated, the grass turns brown and weak. It may become too weak to respond to rain or other moisture when it does arrive. As a result, once it rains, the moss grows quickly while the grass continues to die.

Article in English: Grate fresh coconut with a metal cheese grater. Use the side with smaller holes for finely shredded coconut, and the side with larger holes for bigger coconut flakes. To make larger, chip-like pieces, use a vegetable peeler. If you grate coconut, store in in the fridge in an airtight plastic container.  Try to use it within 2 days, when it will begin to go bad. Be sure to throw out any leftover grated coconut after this time. Pre-heat the oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (approximately 167 degrees Celsius). Spread shredded coconut out on a non-stick baking sheet. Toast it for 5-10  minutes until it is browned.  Use fresh coconut that you've grated, or purchased shredded coconut from your local grocery store. If you purchase sweetened coconut, they will need less cooking time to brown. Toasted coconut can be added to yogurt, salads, cereal, ice cream, and other snacks. Place toasted, shredded coconut in an airtight plastic container. Store the container in a spot that won't get warm or damp, like a kitchen cupboard. The coconut will keep for up to two months if it is sealed properly. Shredded coconut will keep in the freezer for up to a year.

Article in English: Gratitude is a little different from a simple ‘thank you.’  Gratitude is about being thankful and polite, but it’s also about being courteous, generous, and appreciative.  It’s about being concerned for people other than yourself.  Expressing our gratitude towards others can help influence a situation positively and even change the behaviour of others. The first step to expressing gratitude towards others is being able to understand what you are truly grateful for.  Writing down the things you’re grateful for in a journal is a great way to help yourself understand how you feel about yourself and others.  Writing in the journal can take as little as a few minutes a day to list the 3 things you’re grateful about at that moment. You can use the idea of a gratitude journal to help kids develop a better understanding of gratitude and being grateful.  Help them write 3 things they’re grateful for every night before bed.  If they’re too young to write, have them draw a picture of the things they’re grateful for. Challenge yourself to express some form of gratitude 5 times every day.  Your gratitude should be expressed towards everyone, not just your family members and close friends.  If you think about it, there are a lot of people who help you out every day that probably almost never hear words of gratitude, like bus drivers, receptionists, telemarketers, people who hold the door open, people who give up their seat on the bus, cleaners, etc.  When expressing this gratitude, remember to use the person’s name (if you know it), what you’re grateful for and why you’re grateful for it.  For example, “Thanks for holding the elevator Sue, I was concerned I’d be late for my meeting, now I’m going to be right on time!" If there’s a practical reason why you can’t express your gratitude in person, express it in your head or write it down. Gratitude doesn’t only have to be shown the typical way (e.g. saying thank you), it can be much more.  Every now and again look for a new way to express your gratitude for someone by doing...

Article in English: Great writers read extensively. Reading nature poetry that's already been published by successful poets can give you ideas, inspiration, and can open your eyes to what's possible in a nature poem.  A good place to find nature poetry is the Academy of American Poets website. You can search for poets, or use the website's filter to find all works categorized as nature poems.  Search for poems by poets known for their nature-based works. Gary Snyder, for example, is an American poet who's been writing about nature for much of his life. Romantic poets such as Percy Bysshe Shelley, Lord Byron, and John Keats are also known to include nature in their poetry.  Check your library for published books of nature poetry, anthologies, and nature-themed literary journals. If you're interested in writing a poem about nature, the best way to start is by going out into nature. Whether you go for a short walk, a long camping trip, or anything in between, getting outdoors will help you find inspiration and imagery.  In contemporary times, nature takes many forms. You don't have to go out to the countryside or deep in a forest to find inspiration - try visiting an urban park if you can't get into the wilderness.  Consider seeking inspiration where the natural world meets the pavement. Even remote forests wouldn't be accessible without roads to lead you there - perhaps you can find something inspiring in that transitional zone. When you're out in nature (however you define it), you should begin to feel inspired or creative as you take in your surroundings. It's okay if it doesn't come to you right away - you can always analyze your thoughts/feelings later.  As you observe the natural world around you, begin by noticing what you see, hear, smell, and feel. Next, try to draw associations from the things you're observing. What do your observations remind you of in your own life? Why do you notice the things you do in nature? You can take another step back and consider where you first learned to interact with nature. Don't worry...

Article in English: Green cabbage is the most popular type of cabbage, but you can also boil red cabbage, savoy cabbage, Napa cabbage or the Chinese cabbage, bok choy.   Green cabbage: The classic green cabbage has wide fan-like leaves that have a waxy rubber feel when raw. It has a sweet taste when cooked but can taste quite peppery when eaten raw. White cabbage is a type of green cabbage which is a bit mushier when cooked, so extra care needs to be taken of this variety during cooking, to keep it firm and flavorful.  Red cabbage: It's known for its dark reddish-purple leaves and have a deeper flavour than green cabbage. It's often used for pickling and adding colour to dishes.  Savoy cabbage: This cabbage has a softer and crinkly feel to it with deep greens and white veins. It's high in vitamin K, vitamin C, and fiber and has a mild earthy taste to it.  Napa cabbage: This cabbage comes in an oblong shape and looks closely like romaine lettuce with its yellow greenish leaves and prominent white stems. It tastes much sweeter when raw than green cabbages.   Bok choy: A traditional Chinese cabbage, bok choy is light and peppery or bitter to taste. When cooked, the white stems remain crisp while its leaves become soft. It is also quite watery compared to most cabbages. You want leaves that are fresh and crisp, not wilted, brown or marked. The weight of the cabbage should also feel heavy for its size.  Wilted or damaged outer leaves usually indicate the cabbage is old or has been handled rather roughly. The best time to harvest the freshest cabbage is during the summer. Cabbage tastes sweeter and better after frost as cabbage is usually grown in wet and cool conditions. While this may seem convenient, cabbage begins to lose its vitamin C and other nutrients as soon as it is cut. Shredded or pre-cut cabbage may also be stored for long periods of time, depleting its taste.

Article in English: Green onions, or scallions, are the green shoots that come up before an onion bulb begins to form. They are essentially immature onions. Look for a hearty scallion seed, such as the species A. Welsh onions, or simply choose your favorite white, red or yellow onion to grow. If you'd prefer not to start the green onions from seed, choose red, white or onion "sets" to plant. These look like bare-root mini bulbs that come bound with twine or rubber bands. You can pick up a few sets to use as scallions, and let the others mature into onion bulbs. Choose a spot in your yard or garden that gets full sun and has soil that drains well. Till the dirt to a depth of 12 inches and work in compost, blood meal or another organic material to enrich the soil with nutrients. This will ensure that the green onions grow strong and healthy, and continue to produce shoots throughout the growing season.  Be sure rocks, sticks and weeds are cleared away before you till and work the soil. You can till the soil using a garden rake if you're working with a small patch. For a bigger area, buy or rent a soil tiller to make the job easier. If you just want a few green onions, you can prepare a pot with a compost-rich potting soil instead of planting them in the ground. As soon as the soil is workable, about four weeks before the last frost, it's time to plant the seeds or sets you have ready.  If you have seeds, sow them thickly about 1/2 inch deep in rows spaced 1 foot (0.3 m) apart. If you have sets, plant them root-side down 2 inches apart and 1 inch deep, in rows 1 foot (0.3 m) apart. Water the garden bed thoroughly.  The onion seeds will germinate when the soil is anywhere between 65 to 86 degrees Fahrenheit (18.33 to 30 degrees Celsius). It may take up to a month for onion seeds to germinate. If you live in a cold climate with a late spring, you can start the seeds indoors about eight weeks before the last frost. Plant the seeds in peat seed starter pots and keep them well-watered. Put them in a warm, sunny room to during the...

Article in English: Green tea is said to have anti-aging effects when applied to the skin. It reduces wrinkles and blemishes, and even repair scar tissue.  For best results, use loose green tea and a tea ball or strainer, rather than using a bag of green tea. If you're using bagged green tea, go with plain tea, rather than flavored. This will give you a more concentrated result. Allow the tea to cool. Keep adding sugar until the mixture has a consistency that's gritty enough to scrub your skin, but still wet enough to apply easily. Make sure it's thoroughly mixed in. Honey has great moisturizing and antibacterial properties. To store this scrub for later, put the mixture in a jar sealed with a lid. Keep it in a cool, dry place. It should last for several weeks. Rub the scrub all over your face, concentrating in spots that are dry. Use a wet washcloth to remove the scrub, and splash cold water over your face when you're finished.

Article in English: Greyhounds have difficulty sitting on their back legs and it may be easier to begin with teaching your Greyhound a simple command like "wait".  Start by putting a treat on the floor and holding your Greyhound's collar. Say the cue "wait" and place your other hand in front of his face, palm up.  Hold him lightly by the collar for five seconds and then say "ok" or "go get it" while pointing at the treat. Release your hand from his collar and let your dog eat the treat. Repeat this two three times several times a day. After a few times, he should learn to wait and not move forward for at least 5 to 10 seconds until you point and say the release command. Over time, you will not need to hold his collar and can use just the command and the signal. It can take several days or weeks to teach your dog this command, but it will be worth the effort. The "wait" command can be used to teach your Greyhound to stay put for 5 seconds at the curb before crossing the street or to be calm and patient before getting a treat. Keep in mind Greyhounds do not like to sit, as their long backs and well developed leg muscles can make the sitting position uncomfortable for them. If your Greyhound can get close to the ground in a sitting position, this could be an acceptable “sit” position. You should praise your Greyhound every time he follows a command and goes to the bathroom during a walk. The praise should be verbal, in a high pitched voice, followed by a physical patting of his head and a treat. When you reprimand your Greyhound, never raise your hand or yell. Instead, say the command “No!” in a low, clear voice. Do not send your Greyhound to his crate as punishment, as he will start to see the crate as a negative space. Many Greyhound do well in a structured training environment, such as an obedience course. If you adopt an ex-racing Greyhound, an obedience course can be very beneficial for both you and your new pet. Enroll your Greyhound after 1 to 2 months of living in the new home to give yourself time to learn your Greyhound’s...

Article in English: Grief is an intense process and often happens gradually. Everyone processes grief differently and there no “normal” timeframe from grieving so you may feel better after several weeks, months, or even after a year. Be patient and allow yourself to experience grief for your pet, as this is an important way to process the death of your pet. Though you may try to ignore the pain, this will likely only make it worse. Rather than bottle up your feelings and emotions, it can be more useful to allow yourself to go through the stages of grief and heal over time. You may experience several of the stages of grief or only a few of them, but whatever your grieving process is, it’s important that you let it occur and do not keep your emotions hidden or suppress your feelings of sadness and loneliness. One of the initial stages of grief is feeling guilt and responsibility for the death of your pet. Try to avoid asking “what ifs” and thinking about “if only”. This will only make you feel worse and make it more difficult to move past your grief. Take the time to remind yourself that you are not responsible for the death of your pet and that the death of your pet was out of your control. If you believe in a higher power, you may pray on your pet’s death and talk to the higher power as a way to work through your feelings of guilt. Another initial stage of grief is denial, where you may feel like your pet is still alive. You may have difficulty coming home to not find your pet waiting for you or not having to put out dinner every night, like you usually do, for your pet. Rather than tell yourself your pet might still be alive somewhere, it’s important that you are upfront and honest about the reality of the situation. Denial of your pet’s death will make it more difficult for you to move past your pet’s death and cope. A key emotion in the grieving process is anger, which can be directed at the driver of the car that killed your pet, the illness that killed her, or the vet who “failed” to save your pet’s life. Though your anger...

Article in English: Grilling hot dogs results in a pleasant smoky taste, and many consider this to be the best way to prepare them. Any sort of grill will work, so go ahead and light your charcoal, gas, or wood-fired grill.  While the grill is heating up, prepare the hot dog buns and condiments. Hot dogs are best enjoyed hot from the grill. Make sure that one side of the grill is hot and one side of the grill is a little cooler. You can do this by stacking up the charcoal a little higher on one side. If you have a gas grill, you should be able to control the heat using the knobs on your appliance to make hot dogs good. Place them at an angle to create a diagonal sear-mark on the dog. Place them in a bun and serve with any combination of mustard, ketchup, relish, onion, tomato, cheese, or sauerkraut.

Article in English: Grooming removes excess and loose fur and redistributes your dog's skin oils into its fur, helping it stay in place. Depending on your dog's fur type, you can use a bristle or slicker brush, or a rake.  Bristle brushes are best for short-haired, smooth-coated dog breeds such as many terriers, Pugs, and Greyhounds. These brushes look similar to bristle brushes for human hair. Slicker brushes are good for many dog breeds with medium or curly hair, including retrievers, Cocker Spaniels, and St. Bernards. These brushes have tiny, tightly-packed short wire pins. Rakes are best for dog breeds with long hair and thick undercoats, such as Collies, German Shepherds, and Chow Chows. When buying a rake, make sure its pins are roughly as long as your dog's fur to ensure that it adequately thins dead undercoats. Use de-shedding tools just prior to spring when dogs' winter coats begin to fall off, and again in the fall when winter coats begin growing in. Dogs who live indoors most or all of the time may shed year-round. For dogs with short coats, you can likely use a rubber curry comb to de-shed. Dogs with long or thick coats will probably require tools like an undercoat de-matting rake or shedding blade. Regular baths encourage loose hair to fall out in the tub (or outside) instead of on your furniture. However, over-bathing can cause dry skin, which causes fur to fall out. Research your dog's breed to learn about the suggested bathing schedule, or ask your veterinarian. Blow-drying after a bath can be helpful if your dog has a long coat. Use only the lowest heat setting (or a cool setting, if there is one). Towel-dry your dog first, then use the blow dryer to help remove loose fur. . Dogs with flea problems scratch incessantly, which causes hair to fall out. Keeping your dog free of fleas will prevent irritated skin, dandruff and excessive fur shedding.

Article in English: Grout, especially between floor tiles, gets especially dingy and dirty over time. Depending on the severity of your grout discoloration, you will need to use a different cleaning solution. For mild discoloration, use a combination of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide to form a paste. For more severe discoloration, use an oxygen bleach to whiten your grout. In order to avoid extra work when you really start scrubbing, do a mild clean down of your grout prior to deep-cleaning it. Use a mixture of bleach and water to kill mold and mildew, and wipe off any grime or dirt that might be present on the surface. Working in small sections of tile/grout (try 1sq. ft. at a time), apply your cleaner to the grout. Leave it to set for 3-5 minutes, as this will make the scrubbing much easier. Use a brand new toothbrush (electric is preferable) to scrub away the dirt and discoloration on the grout. This can be relatively time consuming, so don’t give up if at first you don’t succeed. Use fresh water and a rag to wipe off the cleaning residue, and apply another coat of your cleaner if necessary. Work your way outwards from your starting point, using the aforementioned process. Add cleaner to small sections, let it set, and scrub away until bright, clean, and shiny grout can be seen underneath. When you’re happy with your newly cleaned (and colored!) grout, you can do a final wipe down to remove any leftover cleaner. It is good to apply a sealant to your grout once a year, so when applicable apply an oil-based sealant to protect your grout.

Article in English: Growing a bonsai tree from a single seed is an extremely long and slow process. Depending on the type of tree you grow, it can take up to 4-5 years for the tree's trunk to become just 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Some seeds also require precisely controlled conditions for germination. However, this method is also perhaps the ultimate bonsai tree experience insofar as it allows you to have total control over the plant's growth from the moment it breaks through the soil. To start, buy seeds of your desired species of tree from a gardening store or gather them in nature.  Many deciduous trees, like oaks, beeches, and maples, have instantly-recognizable seed pods (acorns, etc.) that release from the  tree on a yearly basis. Because of the ease of obtaining their seeds, these types of trees make great choices if you're aiming to grow a bonsai tree from the seed. Try to get fresh seeds. The time window in which tree seeds can germinate is often smaller than that of flower or vegetable seeds. For instance, oak seeds (acorns) are "freshest" when they're harvested in early autumn and they retain some of their green color. Once you have gathered suitable seeds for your bonsai tree, you must care for them to ensure they germinate (sprout). In non-tropical areas with defined seasons, seeds usually fall from trees in autumn, then lie dormant through the winter before sprouting in spring. Seeds from trees that are native to these areas are usually biologically coded to germinate only after they experience the cold temperatures of winter and the gradually increasing warmth of spring. In these cases, it's necessary to either expose your seed to these conditions or to simulate them in your refrigerator. If you live in a temperate environment with defined seasons, you can simply bury your tree's seed in a small pot full of soil and keep it outside throughout the winter and into the spring. If you don't, you can keep your seeds in a refrigerator for the winter. Put your seeds in a plastic zip-lock bag with a loose, dampened...

Article in English: Growing attention is being placed on the societal bias against heavy people by physicians, corporations, insurance agencies, the media, clothing stores, employers, potential and by current romantic partners.  Achieving a healthy weight will make your mate more likely to receive less judgmental healthcare from a primary care provider, may reduce health insurance costs, may make him or her more appealing to hire or promotable, will make shopping for clothes more enjoyable, and will reduce your mate’s experience of social stigma attached to weight. Individuals at a healthier weight are more likely to have a satisfying love life. Those at a healthy weight are less likely to experience sexual dysfunction, and people of average weight are also more likely to rate their sexual health and satisfaction positively. Individuals at an average weight experience less depression, fewer eating disorders, and lower rates of other mental disorders. Showing your mate that healthier weight may equate to a happier life – less likely to include negative self-image and other stresses and worries associated with extra weight – may be the stimulus he or she needs to work toward serious weight loss goals. Carrying a significant amount of excess weight contributes to multiple diseases.  Even just a few extra pounds increases your mate’s risk of heart disease, certain types of cancer, diabetes, hypertension, sleep apnea, and high cholesterol, among other conditions. Excess weight may also inhibit recovery from certain illnesses and surgeries, prevent the provision of certain life-saving treatment or rescue services, and complicate the administration of effective medications and medical treatments.  Women who are significantly overweight are also at increased risk of gestational diabetes, pregnancy complications and cesarean sections, birth defects in babies, and other maternal health complications.

Article in English: Guinea pigs are pack animals, meaning they're social by nature. If your guinea pig doesn't have a cage mate, it's extra important you establish a bond with him. However, guinea pigs can be skittish and it takes time for them to feel comfortable around people.  Take things slow. Talk to the guinea pig from outside his cage and let him come to you willingly. Never pull a guinea pig out of the cage against his will. This can make him feel threatened and increase his sense of isolation.  Allow your guinea pig to sniff your hand. Simply place your hand inside his cage and allow him to come and inspect you. You should allow him to familiarize himself with your scent before attempting to handle him or pick him up. Your guinea pig should associate your voice, which he'll hear a lot from his cage, with comfort and security.  Keep your guinea pig's cage in the area of your home where you're the most present. This way, he'll get used to seeing and hearing you. When you interact with him, use his name frequently so he learns to respond to it. Use positive feedback when you talk to your guinea pig. While speaking to him, offer him something to eat. Carrots, lettuce, grapes, and berries are good, healthy options for guinea pig treats. Sometimes, it's helpful to engage in one-sided conversations with your guinea pig. Tell him about your day, your plans, your social life, and anything else that's on your mind. Hearing your voice frequently will soothe your guinea pig. Guinea pigs are social animals and crave interaction of any kind. If your guinea pig does not have a cage mate, he will need extra attention from his human companion. Part of the reason people find it so difficult to have only one guinea pig is that they simply don't have the time.  You should aim to spend 2 hours a day interacting with your guinea pig if he doesn't have a cage mate.  You can plan time each day to dedicate to your guinea pig. Divide into hour or half hour play periods that work with your scheduling, totaling two hours a day. If you live with...

Article in English: Guinea pigs enjoy burrowing into their own personal cave or running through tunnels. You can use simple items such as cardboard tubes and small paper bags to keep your guinea pig happy. You can also use rodent igloos, which are made of plastic. When you bring your cage home, consider placing it in the most active room in your house, such as the living room. Your guinea pig is a social animal, and they'll want to be near people. By placing their cage in an active area, you'll keep them from getting bored. However, make sure not to stick your guinea pig near a noise source, such as a stereo or television. The noise can hurt their sensitive ears. Your guinea pig needs to chew on things to keep her teeth short. You can use cardboard boxes or untreated wood, or you can simply buy chew toys specifically designed for guinea pigs or other rodents.

Article in English: Guns are effective at extended ranges, so it is essential to reduce distance if attacked with a firearm. Each of these techniques can be adapted for pistols and also long rifles.  If the attacker is pointing the gun at your face, it is essential to redirect the line of fire upwards to reduce the chance of collateral damage. Do so by placing the balls of your hands together and making a V with your hands. Your fingers should remain spread, however, to ensure that you can grasp the gun. Remember that your opponent is expecting some sort of reaction, so try to fuse this with a feigned raising of your arms. Grasp the barrel of the gun from underneath with the aforementioned V hand positioning. Do not grab the handle or your opponent's hands. Push up and then quickly pull down. As you pull down, step in and push your hands forward to crank the opponent's wrist back and point the gun vertically. Kick the knees or groin to disconnect your opponent. You are also in a position to twist the gun sideways. Doing so, and then quickly pulling back should force your opponent to release the gun by hyper extending the thumb.     For a gun pointed to the chest, the defense is the same as for a knife thrust to the chest. The choke hold is particularly useful here as an arm bar may be hazardous.     If the gun is aimed to the back of the head, rapidly turning into the attacker will result in his arm being next to your head. Clamp it down and finish with knee strikes to the groin, bladder, and liver, and palm strikes to the head.     If the gun is behind you, glance over your shoulder. Your opponent will be expecting this reaction. Turn and use your hips to push the arm towards the assailant's line of symmetry. Finish as in the first example.    Create distance. Tap the magazine well to ensure that it is properly seated, pull back on the feeding slide to insert a fresh round and clear any jam that may have resulted from the struggle. Check the safety and aim the gun with both hands. If the gun is a revolver, pull the hammer back...

Article in English: Guys love it when their partner is confident and bold. Take good care of yourself, and make an effort to look as good as you feel. Focus on the things that make you special, and emphasize those qualities. Don’t take him for granted. Let him know you really love how he stays calm in stressful situations, or that you especially appreciated that he cleaned the kitchen after he made dinner. Even if he doesn’t say anything, this will make him feel good about himself. You don’t want to lose yourself in a relationship, and you don’t want him to lose himself either. If you both stay independent by continuing to participate in your hobbies and spending time with your friends, you’ll have more to talk about and you’ll both respect each other more in the long run. As the two of you are getting to know each other better, make sure to ask him questions about what he likes. When he talks about that one thing that really makes his eyes light up, take note and try to find out more. Then, surprise him with a gift that shows you were listening, like a tee time at that ultra-exclusive golf course he mentioned. Making your guy feel like a big, strong man doesn’t mean you have to pretend to be weak. Build him up by giving him compliments that make him feel good about himself, or let him be chivalrous by holding the door open for you. When you boost his ego, he’ll want to spend more time around you. Flirting doesn’t have to stop just because you start dating. In fact, it’s more important than ever to keep doing the cute, flirty things that got him interested. Playfully touch him on the arm, brush up against him while you’re doing dishes together, or give him that look that lets him know you’re thinking of more than just what movie to watch. If he’s just coming around to the idea of being exclusive, you probably shouldn’t be shopping for monogrammed towels. This can make him feel overwhelmed and he’ll likely back away. If he’s sending mixed signals, back off and let him come to you.

Article in English: HFMD is not serious in most cases, so letting it run its course (about a week) is the best way of gaining natural immunity and preventing future infections. As such, be patient and keep well hydrated, which is good advice for any viral infection, but particularly important for HFMD because of the pain associated with swallowing. Fevers and nights sweats cause your body to lose more water than normal, so start with drinking eight 8-ounce glasses per day to rehydrate yourself and keep your mucous membranes of your mouth/throat moist.  Consider buying some mouthwash, oral spray or lozenges from the pharmacy that contain compounds that numb or dull a sore throat. They can be effective to reduce pain and make it easier to consume liquids and soups. You may also want to encourage hydration by offering something cold that might soothe the throat, like a sugar-free popsicle. Common signs of dehydration include: dry skin and mucous membranes, sunken-looking eyes, reduced urination, dark-colored urine, irritability, confusion and weight loss. There's no specific treatment for HFMD in terms of medication, in part because the infection is not serious and usually clears up on its own within a week to 10 days; however, over-the-counter medications such as acetaminophen (Tylenol) can help reduce a fever, and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) can reduce inflammation and pain associated with blisters and ulcers. Remember that aspirin is never a good idea for young children and ibuprofen may not be either, so ask your doctor.  A mild-to-moderate fever is beneficial to fight viral infections as noted above, but temperatures of 103°F (39.4 °C)or greater in children should likely be managed with medication. Drugs called antivirals are recommended for infections within people who have a high risk of complications due to weak immune systems. Antivirals kill viruses or prevent them from reproducing in the body. In rare cases, antivirals may be prescribed for HFMD, such as acyclovir (Zovirax), valacyclovir (Valtrex) or famciclovir. Note that...

Article in English: HFMD usually affects children younger than 5 years old and the infection typically begins with a mild-to-moderate fever and loss of appetite. The fevers in children with HFMD usually reach 101°F (38.3°C) or 102°F (38.9°C), which is the body's way of trying to stop the virus from multiplying and spreading. In addition to fever, look for loss of appetite at meal times, which is typical of most viral infections.  The time between viral contact and the start of symptoms (known as the incubation period) is typically between three to seven days.  Young, pre-school kids are most often affected, although teens and adults do come down with HFMD occasionally. The most common time of year for HFMD outbreaks is in the summer and early autumn. Although a fever is often the first sign of HFMD, after about one to two days of higher temperatures painful sores usually develop in the throat (causing a moderate-to-severe sore throat) and elsewhere in the mouth. The red sores are fairly small (2 or 3 mm in diameter) and quickly develop into blisters (vesicles), then they pop and become ulcers (the most painful stage). In addition to the throat, the most common areas for HFMD sores to appear are the tongue, gums and inner cheeks.  Blisters/ulcers from HFMD can be difficult to distinguish from canker and herpes sores. The main differences are canker sores rarely affect the throat and gums, whereas herpes sores almost always appear on the outer lips. The discomfort created by the throat and mouth sores make it painful to eat, which may further reduce appetite. If the throat and mouth sores are indicative of HFMD (and not cankers, herpes or some other viral infection), then a rash will invariably develop on the hands and feet within an additional one to two days. The small red blisters characteristically appear on the palms of both hands and the soles of both feet. Less commonly, the blisters can also appear on the knees, buttocks, genitals and elbows.  In addition to the small blisters, HFMD causes the skin on the hands and feet to...

Article in English: HTTrack is a free, open-source website copier that allows you to save every page and piece of media from an entire website while preserving links and building directories for all fo the content. Opening the page when offline will allow you to follow all of the links on the site, as long as they originally led to content on the same server. You can download HTTrack for free from httrack.com. It is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. HTTrack stores each site you archive as a "project". This allows you to easily select sites you've already archived to update. HTTrack recommends that you create a base directory for all of your saved websites, and then name each site. HTTrack will build discrete directories for each of your projects in the base directory. If you want to archive an entire website, make sure you start with the website's base address. You will see progress bars as HTTrack begins to download all of the content from the website. This can take a significant amount of time, especially for larger sites and slower connections. By default, HTTrack will follow every link on the website and download the content that it finds, but it will only stay on the website that you set. This keeps HTTrack from downloading the entire internet to your computer. Once the archival process is complete, you can open the directory that you set for the project and load the .html file for the website. You'll be able to navigate through all of the pages, even if you're offline. If the site had streaming video, you won't be able to view it unless you have an internet connection.

Article in English: Habitual hair dyeing can take a toll on your hair, especially when bleach is involved. If you regularly dye your hair and continue to have issues with dry roots, consider taking a break from the color regimen. Any heat processes or chemical treatments can have an adverse effect on your hair's health over time. Limit blowdryer and flat iron use if you're having issues with dry roots. Styling products containing alcohol should be avoided if you have dry roots, as it can be harsher on hair. Alcohol has often been added so that the product dries faster after normal use, but it causes the product to function like an astringent on your already too-dry roots.  Care should be taken to work your pomades, gels, mousses, and waxes into only the tips of your hair, if you choose to continue using them. Too much at the base of your follicles near the scalp can exacerbate oiliness. Hereditary factors are not alone in deciding the state of your scalp. Deficiencies of riboflavin and vitamin B12 specifically have been shown to have a hand in an oily scalp. Seek out supplements if you're unable to incorporate foods that are richer in these into your diet.  Dairy, dark green leafy vegetables, and whole grains provide riboflavin. Meat, poultry, eggs, fish, milk, and cheese are excellent sources of vitamin B12. Humidity can cause scalps to be oilier than usual, in which case you may need to abstain from products, or perhaps even rinse your hair more often. Summer months can over-moisturize hair, whereas winter months will require diligent conditioning to keep your dry roots from getting even drier. When you know you'll be out under the hot, midday sun for any considerable period of time, consider hats or scarves to protect your hair from its moisture-thieving rays.

Summary in Russian:

Не используйте осветлитель. Изучите состав вашего лака для волос и муссов на содержание спирта. Питайтесь правильно. Обращайте внимание на влияние окружающей среды.


Article in English: Hair care experts generally recommend getting a trim every six to eight weeks, to remove dead ends and to keep hair in top shape.  Usually cutting off an inch or two is enough to remove split ends, but always ask your stylist's advice.  If you want to keep your hair long, try getting layers cut into your hair to remove the most damaged parts, but keep the length. A hat can help to protect your hair from harmful UV rays and the drying effects of the sun. A hat can also help to cover up greasy roots between washes, Try wearing a bandana or wrap a scarf around your head if hats aren't your thing. Tying hair too tightly can cause hair to break or snap off, particularly if it's already dry. Pulling your hair back when it's wet is even more damaging. Aim for loose buns and ponytails, and let your hair down before going to sleep at night.  Alternate the way you tie up your hair – tie it low one day, high another and to the side the next. That way, you're not always stressing the same strands.  Avoid hair ties with metal bands, these cause even more damage to hair. Stress causes a chemical reaction in your body that negatively impacts your health. These changes are reflected in your outward appearance, including your hair, which can become thinner or fall out as a result of stress. Do your health and your hair a favor by minimizing stress. Look for ways to wind-down at the end of your day. Light exercise, massages and aroma therapy are all great ways to reduce your stress and improve the health of your hair. Avoid sleeping on a cotton pillow which can dry your hair out, instead sleep on a satin or silk pillowcase or wrap your hair in a silk headscarf at night. Don't sleep with your hair in a tight ponytail, because it can cause breakage. Eliminate smoking, caffeine and fizzy drinks from your life – it will make your hair grow stronger and longer.

Article in English: Hair comes in a variety of textures and thicknesses. Hair can be thick, thin, straight, wavy, kinky, curly, dry, oily or any combination of these qualities. Mousse should be suitable for almost all hair types,  however,  because of its relatively light "hold," coarser, heavier hairs can be difficult to style with it. Here are some tips to guide your mousse usage if you have the following types of hair:  Thin hair: Apply liberally to roots for added lift and volume. Oily hair: Shower before applying. Allow shampoo to sit in your hair for several minutes before rinsing. Thick, coarse, or curl hair: Consider applying a lightweight, relaxing balm to soften your hair and control any unruly frizz. Fine and/or dry hair: Use a conditioning mousse with extra hold. Not all mousses are created equal. Though an average, well-rounded mouse ought to suit nearly all hairdos, certain specially-formulated mousses offer advantages for a variety of hairstyles. Here are just a few types of mousse you'll encounter if you go shopping at your local hair salon or beauty supply store:  Mousse with extra hold - for windy days or especially unruly hair. Conditioning mousse - for repairing and styling dry or damaged hair. Scented mousse - many mousses have delicious perfume scents added - choose the one that smells best to you. Mousse gel - a hybrid styling product that offers greater hold for your hair without the heaviness of traditional hair gels. Thermal care mousse - specially designed to work in conjunction with blow dryers or curling irons. If you're adventurous, it's very easy to make a good mousse in your own kitchen! Break two eggs, separating the whites into a bowl. Beat the whites with a whisk. At you beat the egg, air is forced into it, giving it a light, fluffy texture. Beat the whites until they're fluffy and form stiff peaks. Now, it's just a matter of styling your hair with the egg like you'd use normal mousse. Rub the mixture in your hair and let it dry briefly, then style to your heart's content! Don't worry - if you...

Article in English: Hair gels are usually categorized by the thickness of the compound and the power of the hold. The color and the scent of hair gels generally doesn't make any difference in terms of how they work. Most gels are applied with the fingertips, but there are a few which are spray-on. Decide which is best for your style, or try out each one and see which you prefer.  A light, foamy gel is effective in creating a playful, messy look. You'll still be able to have some bounce and some life in your hair. A medium-hold gel is great for shiny spikes, getting your hair to stay in almost gravity-defying ways. A thick gel will give you a slicked-back look, holding it in place firmly all day. You might not be able to run your fingers through it, but it'll hold fast in a windstorm.

Article in English: Hair grows when you’re receiving enough essential vitamins. You don’t need to eat anything special if you aren’t in a rush to grow your beard, just make sure it is a balanced, healthy diet. Fish is great for your hair. If you want to take a supplement some recommend Biotin, a b complex vitamin. Try to pick a style that matches the hair you grow on your face. Some people find that their moustache doesn't connect to their beard. Others grow hair more heavily on the side of the face than on their neck. Address what type of facial hair you can grow and choose your beard style accordingly. Studies show that a lack of sleep can actually slow down your beard growth.  If you want a good beard make sure you’re getting the appropriate amount of rest. When you’re first growing a beard, it will itch pretty heavily at times. Your skin has to get used to having all this hair on there, but it will get better after a few weeks. Don’t give up and shave just because it starts to get itchy. It can feel relieving to do so, but you won't be any closer to achieving your goal of growing a beard. Wait a few months until it has developed a shape before you try to make it look different. You need to have at least an inch and a half of hair before you start shaping it.

Article in English: Hair is mostly composed of protein, making it the most important component of a hair-healthy diet. Examine your diet and make sure you're getting plenty of protein every day. When your diet is protein deficient, your body doesn't produce as much hair.  Eat lean meats, fish, eggs and dairy products high in protein. Beans, leafy greens and tofu are good sources of protein for vegetarians. . This is a B vitamin essential for hair growth. Since it is mostly found in animal products, vegetarians and vegans often find that they have a b vitamin deficiency. To make sure you get plenty of b vitamins in your diet, eat the following foods:  Eggs, nuts, salmon, avocados, meat products and wheat bran. If you feel you aren't able to meet your b vitamin needs with food alone, consider taking a biotin supplement. These vitamins help hair stay glossy and healthy. When you aren't getting enough vitamin A or C, your hair can become weak and dull. Make sure you're eating plenty of the following:  Sweet potatoes, carrots, kale, butternut squash and pumpkin, which are all rich in Vitamin A. Broccoli, leafy greens, peppers, and citrus fruits, which contain high amounts of Vitamin C. These "good" fats support your scalp's health and promote healthy growth of hair and skin cells. Omega 3 fatty acid is found in salmon, sardines, mackerel, flax seeds and walnuts. You can take fish or flax seed oil supplements if you don't enjoy eating foods that are rich in omega 3s. When your body is dehydrated, it shows in your hair. Your hair can become dry, brittle and more prone to breakage. When your hair breaks and frays, it's more difficult to grow it into the longer style you're after. Make sure you stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water every day.  Try replacing coffee, soda and alcoholic drinks with water whenever possible. Carry a water bottle with you throughout the day so you'll never have to go thirsty. Sometimes hair loss or extremely slow growth has an underlying cause that can't be fixed using at-home methods. If you believe that...

Article in English: Hair pulling often results from a refusal to sit and be present with uncomfortable feelings or negative emotions.  Use mindfulness techniques to help yourself become more accepting of these negative or uncomfortable emotions as a natural part of the human experience. They don’t necessarily need to be avoided. When the insistent urge to avoid discomfort abates, hair pulling will also decrease. To do a mindfulness exercise, sit in a quiet, comfortable spot. Take deep breaths. Breathe in for a count of four, hold for a count of four, and exhale for a count of four. As you continue to breathe, your mind will likely wander. Acknowledge these thoughts without judgment and let them go. Return your attention to your breath. . Many individuals who are affected by this disorder also have low self-confidence or are low in self-esteem. In order to build self-esteem and self-acceptance, use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a therapeutic approach. This approach can help an individual clarify her values and focus on her life goals. Building self-esteem is an important part of recovery. Remember, you are a wonderful and unique person. You are loved, and your life is precious. No matter what anyone else tells you, you should love yourself. Negative thoughts about yourself can deflate your self-esteem quickly and can make you feel like pulling your hair. Put-downs, fear of failure, and other negative thinking will keep you feeling as though you are not enough. Start changing these mental habits to begin to build yourself up and increase your confidence. Here are some example of how you can begin to change how you think about yourself:  Say you have a thought such as, “I don’t have anything interesting to say, so I can see why people think I’m pathetic.” Catch unkind thoughts like this and make a conscious effort to change these thoughts by correcting yourself. Tell yourself: “Sometimes I don’t have much to say, and that is okay. I don’t have to keep others entertained or take on the entire responsibility for this...

Article in English: Hair that feels severely dry and brittle should be handled by a professional, since treating it at home can often cause even more damage. Bleach strips the hair of natural pigment, and when too much pigment is lost, professional treatments are required to restore it back to health.  If you do get a professional treatment, you'll need to follow up at home by applying hydrating conditioners during each wash and deep conditioning masks at least once a week. You should also avoid dyeing your hair again for several weeks or months, depending on the severity of the damage.  If you're satisfied with the color of your bleached blonde hair but just need to add a little moisture back in, you might consider home treatment. Going to a salon will still minimize the risk of further damage, but as long as your hair isn't breaking apart every time you handle it, you can probably restore it to health without altering the color at home. If you choose to fix brittle bleached hair at home, you need to stay away from shampoo for at least one week. You can still shower every two or three days during that week, but only apply conditioner during this initial period.  Bleach strips away pigment and oil, leaving your hair raw and weakened. Shampoos also strip away oil, but does so to a lesser degree. While the amount of oil stripped away by shampoo is usually healthy for your hair, hair weakened by bleach needs time to recover and restore a healthy balance of natural oils, and constantly removing those oils with shampoo will prevent that from happening.  If your scalp feels too oily during this first week, switch to a cleansing conditioner but still skip the shampoo. A cleansing conditioner will be a much gentler way to clean the skin of your scalp without removing healthy oils from your hair. After the first week passes, you can probably return to shampooing your hair. Select a gentle moisturizing or color-preserving formula, though, and stay away from harsher clarifying shampoos. You should also skip one or two days in between...

Summary in Russian:

Если волосы серьезно пострадали от окрашивания, запишитесь в салон. Не мойте голову шампунем в течение недели. Через неделю начните пользоваться щадящим шампунем. Пользуйтесь несмываемым кондиционером. Делайте маску из оливкового или кокосового масла раз в неделю. Не подвергайте волосы воздействию высоких температур.


Article in English: Hair that’s especially curly or coarse may be more prone to breakage during and after the bleaching process. Choose a deep conditioner that’s free from sulfates and uses oils such as Argan oil or coconut oil. Use the conditioner every night for 1 week prior to bleaching. Apply the conditioner generously to your hair while it’s dry, gently comb it through with a wide tooth comb, and allow it to remain on your hair for 30 minutes before rinsing it with lukewarm water. A bleach kit will typically have a packet of bleach powder and a bottle of liquid developer. The strength of the bleach is determined by the developer, but you’ll have a choice between blue, purple, or white bleach powders as well. The main difference between them is that white powder can leave more of a gold tint in your hair, while blue and purple powders are more neutral. Many white powders are considered “extra strength” and would be appropriate to use if your hair is very dark brown or has been colored frequently in the past. The developer in your bleach kit will come in strength 10, 20, 30, or 40 volume, with 10 being the weakest. Your hair will lighten faster at higher volumes, and more slowly at lower volumes. If your hair is light brown, use a 20 volume developer. If your hair is medium to dark brown, you may need to use a 30 volume developer. If you don’t have a lot of experience bleaching your hair, stick to 10 or 20 volume developers for home use. If you feel that you need a 30 or 40 volume developer to get the job done, it would be best to have your hair bleached by a professional colorist. If your hair is very thick or long, you will need more bleach to cover all of it. Buy 2 kits of the same powder and developer once you’ve chosen the type you want. Some beauty supply stores offer bleach powder and developer sold separately. You can cut costs by purchasing a larger bottle of developer and 2 packets of powder instead of 2 separate kits. Bleach actually works best on hair that’s slightly dirty or greasy. Try not to wash your hair for...

Article in English: Hair type is based on many factors including curl pattern, texture, hair porosity, hair density, hair width, and hair length. These factors all create your unique hair type and dictate what products and hair care procedures would work best for you.  If you know your hair type (straight, curly, dry, thin, color treated, etc.), finding specific hair products at the store should be easy. Use the products that correlate with the type of hair you have. Nearly every hair care brand has multiple versions of their product to fit customers' different hair needs. It is best to determine your hair type when your hair is in it's most natural state. If you don't know your hair type, or your hair spans over a few different types, you can always ask your hairdresser for some advice the next time you get your hair cut or treated. If you have dyed hair, look for products specifically made for color treated hair. These specialized products usually have moisturizing benefits since hair dyes contain harsh chemicals that dry out hair. These products will also help maintain color and luster of treated hair. You want to use products made for the kind of hair that you have, so you can easily control and style your hair in a way that works best with your hair type. For example, if you have oily hair, you're going to want to avoid shampoos that add moisture, and instead look for products that help with balancing or clarifying.   Curly or coarse hair should look for products that reduce frizz, and depending on how your want to style your hair, look for products that are curl defining or curl softening.  Flat or thin hair should look for products that add volume but are also gentle for washing. Since oil shows more easily on people with thin hair, they might have to wash their hair more frequently.  Colored or treated hair should try to use products specifically made for color treated hair for two reasons: first, these products have amino acids and conditioners that help fortify the already damaged hair. Second, these specific products...

Article in English: Hamsters need to be fed a good variety food, as well as the occasional treat. Commercial brand hamster foods, such as Hazel Hamster (Harry Hamster in the UK), are ideal. Because hamsters are hoarders, give a small quantity that you can be reasonably confident the hamster will eat quickly and not try to stash away.  Make sure the nutritional values are: 17-22% protein, 4-6% fat, and 8-10% fiber. Some experts believe most hamster mixes are a little too low in protein to be perfectly balanced for the average Syrian hamster.[citation needed] It is a good idea to give your hamster the odd treat of hard boiled egg or cheese, cat food, or mealworms. Small bits of cooked chicken or scrambled egg are good sources of protein and may be given daily. If the hamster does not take any excess treats away to eat later within 24 hours time, remove any uneaten goodies. For instance, never give your hamster seeds with husks. The sharp pointed seed husks may hurt the delicate lining of the cheek pouch. Also avoid giving foods with a high moisture content (cucumber or lettuce), since these are liable to have a laxative effect on the hamster's digestive system. Make this available at all times. A sipper bottle is ideal since this doesn't get contaminated with bedding or food in the same way a bowl does. Make sure to check the water level every day, so that your hamster never gets dehydrated.  Wash the inside with a bottle brush. It may look clean, but the inside of the bottle will become coated with harmful bacteria. Use a hamster approved water bottle. Filtered water is best, but tap is fine - as long as you dechlorinate the water, either by using dechlorination liquid/tablets or by leaving the water out in the open over night. This prevents your hamster from having to chew on its cage bars and potentially damaging his or her teeth, and it prevents the teeth from becoming overgrown. To reduce the risk of teeth overgrowing, give your hamster dog biscuits, dry whole wheat macaroni, or wood from orchard trees, such as apple, pear,...

Article in English: Hamsters reach sexual maturity as young as 6 weeks old, though it is not advisable to let them mate at this age. A female should be at least 8 - 10 weeks old before mating, and males 10 -12 weeks old. Once a hamster reaches 12 months of age, it should no longer be bred, as health risks skyrocket. The average hamster lifespan is 18 - 24 months. Hamster pregnancies are very short, lasting just 15 - 18 days. When you know your female is expecting, look for the following signs that she's preparing to give birth:  Restlessness without getting time for exercise Nest-building behavior Very angry behavior and irritable Conscientious grooming Squeaking and scratching Eating and drinking more than usual When you see the signs that the mother is close to giving birth, make sure the babies have an adequate cage to be born into. The cage should be cleaned and prepared before birth, but not too close to the mother's due date. It is important not to disturb the mother in the last few days of pregnancy, as it raises the odds of her cannibalizing the babies.  A few days before her due date, put her in a clean cage by herself and leave her undisturbed. If you don't know exactly how far along she is, isolate her when you notice her belly swelling.  Remove toys from the cage. The mum might hurt or kill the babies if toys get in the way. Don't use cotton wool or other materials that could form strands on the cage floor, as they could tangle around the babies. Also avoid straw, as the sharp ends could hurt them.  Safer alternatives include aspen, paper flakes, Carefresh, or wood fiber pulp. Provide the mother with nesting material - something warm she mother can burrow into. Recommended materials include un-dyed tissue paper, toilet paper, or kitchen paper. From 2 days before the due-date to 10 days after birth, do not change anything in the cage or handle the mother. When the mother is almost ready to give birth, she will build a breeding nest. Thus, there is no need for you to add any extra housing or move the babies to a...

Article in English: Handling for crab is a lot easier than the other methods in this article and there are fewer things you need. Basically, all you need is a dip net, a line or string long enough to reach the bottom of the water, and bait.  You can handline from a boat or off a dock, so you'll need to consider that when you get your line. Sometimes you have to weight the end of your line so that it sinks to the bottom. For bait, chicken necks, eel, or fish work well. Just attach a piece to your line before you sink it. You'll want to tie the line down and wait a bit so that the crabs have a chance to find the bait and get attached. You'll feel when the crab has crabbed onto the bait. You don't want to spook the crab so that it lets go. The bigger the crab the more likely it will be to spook and drop off, so go carefully. When it gets near the surface, scoop it up in your net. Pay attention to whether there is a current or tide, make sure that you place the net so that if the crab lets go it'll end up in your net and not swept away. Make sure that you have ice in there so that the crab gets sluggish and easier to manage. Avoid picking them up with your bare hands. Kitchen tongs or specialized crab tongs work find here.

Article in English: Hang out with your ex on small social outings. At first, keep hang outs short and modest - a trip to a cafe or an art museum, for instance. Keep a full schedule (or at least pretend to.) If things get awkward, you can always use the excuse that you're running late for something else to get out of there!   Definitely  don't do anything together that can be construed as a date. Don't stay out late, drink alcohol, or go dancing. You could find yourself falling for each other again, and if you haven't fixed the things that led to your breakup, you'll be setting yourself up for future heartbreak. Worse, you could ruin any new romances either of you has started with other people. Your ex might be confused about your intentions if you're not perfectly clear with him about what you want. Simply say, "I hope we can still be friends" or ask the question "We're still friends, right?"  Don't  leave this issue unaddressed - if you're vague about what you want from your new relationship, he might think you're trying to get back together with him. Spare yourself some terrible drama by being open and honest with him from the get-go. One of the biggest mistakes you can make is to act like nothing's happened after a breakup. Doing so gives off the impression that you never cared. It can really hurt his feelings - at this point, that  shouldn't  be something you're trying to do. After you make contact, acknowledge your breakup without dwelling on it. You might try using phrases like these:  "I'm so glad I got to see you again." "I really hope you're doing better. I am." "I want to move on and start over as friends." If his friends knew about your old relationship, they'll be curious to know what's going on. If you have any reason to suspect he won't be honest with his friends, don't let him spin them a lie. Tell them you're looking to be friends with him and nothing more. If they hear from him that you're desperate to get back together but they hear from you that you're not, they'll probably (correctly) assume that he's the...

Article in English: Has he started working out more, dressing better, grooming himself with more care, or using a new musky cologne? While self improvement through physical fitness and grooming are healthy life choices, consider if he is trying to improve his physical appearance for someone else. If your boyfriend is usually in bed by 9 and is suddenly out all night or sneaking around the house late at night, this may be a sign of cheating. Similarly, if he usually sticks to a set routine of going to the gym in the morning or heading home from the office by 5, but he is now sleeping in or staying at the office late, these adjustments in his daily schedule could hint at time spent elsewhere, possibly in the company of someone else. If he is usually a very attentive, supportive partner who asks you how your day is and enjoys having long conversations with you over dinner, and then suddenly appears uninterested in your day or bored by long conversations with you, this may be a sign his interest or engagement is focused elsewhere and not on you.   Your partner may also lose interest in domestic activities like spending time with the kids, fixing up the house, mowing the lawn, etc. He may also spend more time on his phone texting or on the computer in private chat rooms or social media pages. If his phone or computer use goes up dramatically or if he becomes secretive about his phone or computer use, this may be a red flag. Perhaps there has been a decline in the amount of sex you are having or a strange, sudden increase in sexual activity, with new sexual preferences or tastes that you did not experience with him previously.  You may start wondering where he learned a certain sexual move or what caused him to develop a certain preference in bed. One possible reason is he may be trying out new moves with someone else. He may also have a lower sex drive or spurn off your attempts at being intimate with excuses like “I'm tired,” or “Maybe another night.” If he seems to be picking a lot of fights, get angry at you for something small he...

Article in English: Has it said what you ventured out to say? Is anything left out? Are questions raised and not answered? Is your wording clear? Does it move you?  A good memoir is entertaining. It doesn't necessarily have to be funny, but it should be deliberately something. What is the reader getting from it? Why would they drop their own worries and start caring about yours? In addition to checking for content errors, check for grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes. Your computer will not catch everything. If you have a close friend or family member that is particularly good at this, ask them for assistance. Not everything you write will be gold. After you've taken a break, start back at the beginning, dissecting and removing. Weed out what's unnecessary and repetitive. Not every instance of your existence is worth noting. If an event isn't part of a flowing transition into another, it doesn't have to make it to the page. Include only what gets you to your end point without meandering from your path. After you have revised as much as you can, give your memoir to some trusted friends for feedback. You may see a pattern in their comments, and that's a good indication of what needs further revision. Don't be shy and seek a professional editor if needed.  If they're in it (or not in it), be careful. Don't hurt anyone's feelings by putting them in a negative light (or not putting them in one at all) and then forcing them to read it. You'll only get a negative reaction. Constructive criticism is vital to your work. Sometimes you may not see things that others will point out, and it may help you improve your work.
