Article in English: Once you decide that you “like” someone, go for it. Observe her without staring or being too creepy. Take mental notes of things she says in the classroom. See who her group of friends are. Notice if she hangs out with a boy already. Do not begin to stalk this girl, or else you may get a bad reputation. Ask one of her friends what she enjoys doing. A good way to get her to take notice of you, is to begin asking questions about her. Her friend will definitely tell the girl that you are asking about her. Regardless of how she feels about you, this will flatter her. You could potentially ask something like:  ”What does Samantha like to do on the weekends?” ”Do you know if Jasmine has a favorite book?” ”Does Jamie have a boyfriend?” You need to put yourself out there and that involves being vulnerable to being made fun of. You can combat feeling embarrassed by having a positive outlook on your actions. If you are asking about a girl you like, then you’re acting normal. People who tease you for this are insecure that they don’t have the courage to talk to the ones they like. Never talk down about the girl you like when confronted about your feelings. Stand up for her and yourself. It is easy for some to try to back out of liking someone when they are in the spotlight. Say nice things about her and she’ll appreciate your respect. Remember the point is for the girl to like you and not for a group of kids to like you.

Article in English: Once you delete the files from your computer, getting them back will be nearly impossible. You can use a USB drive or an external hard drive to back up your files. You can also use a CD-RW to back up your files, but these typically have less space available than a standard USB drive or hard drive. If you no longer have your XP install disc, you'll have to buy a replacement. You can also download an XP installation file and burn it to a CD, though you'll need the accompanying purchase key. Click Start, click Turn Off Computer, and click the green Restart button when prompted. The key you're prompted to press might also be different; most computers will display a message on startup that says "Press [key] to enter setup" or something similar. You can look at your computer model's manual or online support page to confirm your computer's BIOS key. Use the arrow keys to move the selection box over to Boot. The Boot tab may instead say Boot Options, depending on your computer's manufacturer. Press ↓ until this option has a box around it. Press + until CD-ROM Drive is at the top of the list. You may have to press a different key here. Check the key legend on this screen to confirm. You should see a key prompt (e.g., F10) at the bottom of the screen that correlates to "Save and Exit"; pressing it will restart your computer, using the CD drive as a reboot point. You may have to press ↵ Enter to confirm the changes.

Article in English: Once you figure out what immigrant category you belong to, you'll need to have your family or employer file an immigrant petition for you. In rare cases, you'll file one yourself.  If you're obtaining a green card through your family, your relative must file Form I-130, the Petition for Alien Relative. If you're obtaining a green card through your employer, your employer must file Form I-140, Petition for an Alien Worker. If you're an entrepreneur investing money, you need to file Form I-526, Immigrant Petition by Alien Entrepreneur. If you're in a special category such as a widow or widower, file Form I-360.  If you're a refugee or asylee, you most likely don't need an underlying petition if you meet the requirements to adjust status. Once your relative, employer or you yourself file your initial petition, you need to check to see whether a visa is available before filing the remaining application forms. The number of visas available differs according to your immigrant category and the country from which you are emigrating.  There are an unlimited number of visas available for people applying for a green card through immediate relatives.  There is a limited number of visas available to those applying for green cards through family that is not immediate and for employment purposes. You will receive a priority date and be put on a waiting list until a visa becomes available.  You'll receive a "Visa Bulletin" that will allow you to check your place in the visa queue. You have to wait for a visa to become available before this form can be filed. Read the instructions on the form and make sure to submit all of the required documents and information. Be sure to send your forms to the correct address.  If you're applying for a green card through an immediate family member, you can file form I-485 at the same time your relatives files your petition, since there are unlimited visas available in your category. There is a filing fee of $1070.

Article in English: Once you find a stock you are interested in purchasing, research the company to determine whether or not it is likely to grow and prove a worthwhile investment. The difficulty in researching penny stock companies varies based on the company and the market the stock is sold on. You should prioritize purchases of penny stocks that you find information on, and avoid stocks that don’t present any real data on themselves.  If you are interested in a penny stock for sale on a secured exchange like NASDAQ or NYSE, you can read the company’s quarterly financial statements and SEC filings for free online. These resources provide you with details about the company's historical performance, and the attached management discussion will outline the company’s vision for the future. If you are looking at a penny stock for sale outside of the exchanges, such as through OTC markets like Pink Sheets, use tools like Google’s or Yahoo’s finance websites to search for the type of penny stock you would like to buy. Researching directly through a reputable third-party source will ensure you aren’t being scammed, such as through emails or other marketing articles paid for by businesses looking to sell stock. If you want to buy a specific penny stock and can’t find any data on the company, watch out! If you are certain you want to invest, use google maps to determine whether the company has a legitimate place of business and is operating as it represents. A balance sheet lists all the assets the company owns, including cash, liquid investments, outstanding amounts owed by customers (receivables), equipment, real estate, and other forms of property. It also lists the amounts the company owes in liability to other companies, and the amount of equity in the company retained by the owners. Use the balance sheet to assess whether the company has enough cash and liquid assets on hand to pay the liabilities it owes in the next year (“short-term liabilities"). The company income statement, or statement of earnings, shows how much money the...

Article in English: Once you find out where you're going to be stationed and what you're going to be looking for, collecting, or attempting to facilitate, it's critical that you learn everything you can about the political climate that you'll be wandering into. If you're going to the United Arab Emirates to spy on an oil tycoon, you'll need to treat that job very differently than if you're going to South Florida to work your way in with a militant group.  Study the contemporary landscape as well as the deep history. Learn about the people and the culture, trying to get a sense of the zeitgeist of the people who live there. What makes them tick? How are they different than you? Learn the geography as well. If you're in Iraq and you need to know how long it takes to get from Baghdad to Kuwait and back before nightfall, you don't want to be messing around on an iPhone trying to figure it out. It's likely that you'll be set up with a new fake identity when you're going into the field. Maybe you're going to be a fruit executive working for Dole in Southeast Asia, scouting possible locations for a new operation. The general sketch will be provided, but the specific details of your life will need to be teased out by you.  Treat it like an actor would. Your life may depend on it. Any details that you include about yourself that might be borrowed from your own life could lead potential enemies into digging a little deeper into your history and finding out the truth. For most jobs, you'll need to find someone to vouch for you and help you get familiar with the local customs, who may or may not know your status as a secret agent. If they do, it's also a good idea to do as much as possible to make your own contacts and work your way into the local landscape. Keep your enemy close. For the most part, you won't be spying on your targets from a distance, looking through binoculars at shadowy deals going down. You'll be meeting with them face-to-face, swiping their hard drive and making a clean get-away. For this reason, it's absolutely...

Article in English: Once you get the hang of using chopsticks, it's a wise idea to learn just a few simple "rules" for them. These aren't absolutely essential, but they're simple to learn and they don't make eating any more difficult. For example, chopsticks are not to be used to poke or spear pieces of food. This is considered crude. It's a little like going to a fancy restaurant and spearing food on your knife instead of using your fork. This resembles the incense used at Buddhist funerals, so it is considered taboo. " In other words, don't pick up a piece of food and hold it for another person to grab with their own chopsticks. Instead, put the food on his or her plate. This, too, has a negative connection to funeral rituals. In addition, when someone wants to give you food, offer your plate, rather than grabbing it with your own chopsticks.

Article in English: Once you have a bad impression of a teacher, it’s easy to start hating everything about them. Which aspects of your teacher’s behavior are really impeding your learning? What things are just mildly annoying? Identifying the core problems is the first step to developing a plan to deal with them.  For example, you might have a teacher who makes corny jokes and also isn’t clear about what the homework assignment is. You might be able to ignore the jokes, but you could ask your teacher if he could post the homework assignment on the board before the end of class. A very strict teacher might be annoying, especially if you learn better in a more relaxed environment. But if your teacher deliberately frightens or humiliates students,  you may need to talk to a parent or other adult in the school about the situation. What are you doing to contribute to the bad relationship between you and this teacher? You need to hold yourself accountable for your own behavior. Even if a teacher is boring, for example, you don’t have any excuse to nap during class. If you realize that you are contributing to a bad situation, change your behavior – and apologize for it. For example, you might say: “I’m sorry that I didn’t pay attention in class yesterday. I know math is important, and I want to do better.” Don’t turn your apology into an opportunity to criticize: don’t say, for example, “I’m sorry I fell asleep – it’s just that you’re so boring.” Ask him/her, sincerely and respectfully, how you can do better in the class. Listen to his/her advice as well as any criticism they offer of you. Don’t respond defensively. Instead, try to reflect back what you hear in order to be sure you are understanding correctly. Teachers often appreciate students who take initiative. Rather than asking, “How can I get a good grade?” try approaching a difficult teacher with a specific plan and ask for feedback. For instance, you could say: “I’m planning to study for this exam by re-reading the assigned chapters and making flashcards with the vocabulary....

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: Once you have a decent reel, an agent may want to represent you. An agent can negotiate your contracts for you and help you to decide what is and what is not in your best interest. However, you should never pay money up front to acquire an agent. An agent should only charge you if you make money as a result of his or her efforts. A large part of an agent’s job will be to negotiate your "gross points." This is a fancy term for however much money the movie makes, you get X percent of it. When a movie makes $100, it's not that big of a deal. But imagine if your next movie rakes in $1 billion! Those gross points matter and they matter big time. Get ready to take none of the credit and all of the blame. When a movie does well, it's rare that the director gets seen as the reason why. But when a movie does poorly, it's always that the director gets blamed. If it's a flop, you'll be hard-pressed to get another parallel gig anytime soon. Even if a movie that you direct is successful, you may not get as much recognition as the actors in your film. Maybe not for you, but for the average Joe on the street, directors aren't seen as the amazing film visionaries they are. It's the actors that make the movie. So when it comes to the public, you'll go unappreciated. And when it comes to your crew, it's no different. If your movie is bad, your producers will blame you. If the actor is upset about how their hair looks, they'll blame you. It's a cycle you'll, best case scenario, grow to tolerate. After you have had a few directing jobs, you can become a part of the Director's Guild of America (DAG) (provided you're US based, of course). By becoming a member of DAG, you're guaranteed a $160,000 salary for 10 weeks. In most cases, you must be hired by a signatory company to be eligible. Or you make it big out of nowhere. The initial fee is a few thousand dollars and you pay minimal dues beyond that. It's completely worth it, especially if the projects are not constant. After you achieve your goal, make sure that you enjoy and...

Article in English: Once you have a decent set of makeup and eyeliner, stand in front of the bathroom mirror and decide how you'd like to use it to accentuate your eyes. This is different from  your initial brainstorming, as you'll be thinking of practical ways you can put your new tools to the best effect.  As a general rule, you want to balance out your features as much as possible, and exercise moderation in highlighting features that are already prominent.  Whether you have large or small eyes, wide or almond-shaped, there will be particular techniques that favour your shape, and others which probably won't yield as desirable a result. While some techniques are safer bets than others, part of the fun of makeup is trying new things, so if you think of something that goes against popular recommendation, feel free to try it out. If it doesn't turn out the way you imagined it, you can always wash it off! One crucial part of mastering makeup is knowing which looks work for certain situations. You wouldn't want to dress for the red carpet going to the mall or the grocery store, and the same works vice versa. Generally speaking, for more glamorous or exciting situations, you should draw on your liner thicker. Likewise, you should keep it subtle for stay-in occasions. If you're having any trouble deciding how much is enough for certain situations, keep your eye out for others' makeup at certain events; what is the common extent at a night club? How about a library? It's recommended to fall back on popular trends if you have any doubt. From there, you can eventually springboard into your own style. Winged liner is a very popular technique, as it adds length and distinction to the contour of your eyes. Most important, possibly, is the fact that the winged technique may apply to an extensive variety of eye shapes and sizes. While adding a subtle accent to the outer ends of your eyes is appropriate to virtually every kid of eye, how far you go with it depends on the shape and placement of the eyes. Although it's known for its...

Article in English: Once you have a draft of the novel, spend time listening to how it sounds out loud. Read passages of it aloud to yourself and to others. Listen for any awkward sentences or shifts in tone, where the language or vocabulary changes. Notice if the novel has a sense of rhythm and pacing. Reading the novel aloud can also help you catch spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors. Critiquing your own work can be difficult. Get feedback from others to help you revise the novel. Ask friends, peers, family members, and teachers to read the novel. Have them give you feedback on whether they found the novel engaging, well paced, well described, and enjoyable to read. Once you get feedback, spend time revising the novel so it is at its best. You may need to rewrite whole sections of the novel or move sections around to help with pacing and character. Be willing to pull the novel apart and rework it. It can take many drafts to get the novel to the state that you want it to be.

Article in English: Once you have accepted that the friendship is really over, you may feel very sad about the loss of your friend. Know that it’s okay to cry if you feel sad. Crying is a healthy way to express and release your sadness. If you do not feel like crying, you should not feel obligated to cry. Whether you cry or not, it’s important to acknowledge and accept any emotions that you’re feeling. Exercising your body releases endorphins that help you feel happier and more positive about life. Going for a walk outside has the added benefit of getting fresh air and sunlight, which can also help to improve your mood. Talking to someone you trust can help you process your emotions and give you an outside perspective on your situation. A friend or counselor may be able to help you see things in a different light and not feel so bad about losing a friendship.  If your former friend left town, try calling a mutual friend who might also be missing them. Talking about your former friend together can help you both get over your sadness. You can say, “Hi Mary, I’m feeling very sad since Joan left town. I really miss laughing at her jokes. Do you miss her, too?” If you’ve had a fight with your former friend, call someone you trust to talk about your feelings of anger or betrayal. Tell them what happened in your fight and ask for their objective opinion on what happened. For example, you could say, “I got into a horrible fight with Sue last week. I asked her for the $20 she owed me, and she yelled at me and told me I was petty. Do you think I was petty for asking for her to pay me back? Do you think she overreacted?” Having fun with other people who are still your friends can help lessen the hurt of losing a friend. If you are feeling sad thinking about the friend you lost, call a different friend and ask them to spend time with you. You can invite them to watch a movie, have some food or drinks together, listen to some music, or play a game. Whatever you invite them to do, make sure it’s something that you really enjoy doing. Finding...

Article in English: Once you have all of the basics assembled for your prototype, you can start testing the game to see how it plays. Before trying it out on a group, play it by yourself. Play through the game as each player and record any positives or negatives you notice as you play.  Solo test your game several times. Adjust the number of “players” as you do to determine whether or not your game actually supports the minimum and maximum number of players. Find flaws in your game by trying to break it while solo testing. See if it’s possible for players to always win with a specific strategy, or if there are loopholes in the rules that create an unfair advantage. After you’ve solo played your game enough to work out most of the kinks, it’s time to playtest. Gather some friends or family and explain that you’d like them to test your game. Let them know that it's a work in progress and that you’d appreciate any feedback.  During playtesting, avoid adding any additional explanations. You won’t always be able to clarify the rules. Take notes while the game is being played. Be alert for times people don’t seem to be having fun or the rules get confusing. You’ll likely need to improve these areas. Pay attention to players’ ending position. If one player is consistently ahead of the other players, there's probably an unfair advantage. Everyone approaches games differently, and some might see things missing that you wouldn’t have realized on your own. The more people you get to test your game, the more opportunities you’ll have to find flaws or weak points and fix them.  Local hobby and game shops often have community games nights. These events are the perfect place to try out your game and get the opinions of veteran board gamers. A player’s age will likely impact how they approach your game. Try out the game with your younger siblings and grandparents to test its age appropriateness. As you finish each playtest, make necessary changes or adjustments to your game board, rules, and/or other components. As you continue to test, keep...

Rare colors such as red, dark blue, and orange will likely generate a higher profit, up to around $30 for a piece compared to around $5 for more common colors like white, green, and brown. Shape is another factor and some shapes, like hearts and triangles, are popular for making jewelry. You can make up to $15/hour by searching for sea glass and then selling it on websites like eBay or Etsy. To help sell it, take quality pictures of it in good lighting. Try to eliminate any shadows or other distractions to the sea glass in the picture.

Article in English: Once you have collected thorough information about your diet and symptoms and have discussed it with a medical or nutritional professional, consider performing an elimination diet or challenge test to pinpoint particular food allergies. If you experience anaphylaxis from any foods at all, do not attempt to perform an elimination diet or oral challenge without the supervision of a physician. If your reactions are typically mild or nondescript, however, an elimination diet or oral challenge can help narrow the list of possibilities. After carefully reviewing your food journal for foods that appear to be related to symptoms, make a list of foods to eliminate entirely from your diet, albeit temporarily. Unless you suspect an allergy or an intolerance to a very pervasive ingredient, such as wheat or dairy, avoid dramatically restricting your daily diet by selecting no more than 5 individual foods to eliminate at a time. Continue recording your diet and symptoms during this time. If symptoms have subsided or disappeared, add one food each week back into your diet and continue to track reactions.  If the re-introduced food causes no reaction for the entire week, cross it off your list of potential intolerances and introduce the next food the following week. Continue this way until you have identified the particular food or foods that cause reactions, avoiding them and discontinuing the challenge for the week if your symptoms return. Be thorough when eliminating foods. For instance, if you suspect that honey is the ingredient that causes symptoms, check labels for cookies, sauces, cereals, flavored nuts, bottled teas. If you eat a lot of pre-packaged or prepared items, always check ingredient labels to see whether foods you might not suspect could possibly contain the potential ingredient. Make a list of the food that caused symptoms and keep the food out of your daily diet until you can discuss the reactions with a health professional or get tested for the specific food. If you experienced a reaction from a food...

Article in English: Once you have drawn up your shortlist and arranged the interviews, you should spend some time preparing together with your partner. You will need to draw up a list of specific questions that you want to ask, as well as thinking about the soft skills that you will want your photographer to possess.  Talk it through carefully with your partner to make sure you both understand each other’s concerns before the interview. Consider whether to meet the photographer at her studio, or ask her to visit you at home. Be sure to take plenty of notes during the interview so you can look back and discuss them with your partner. The first thing to discuss is the style and ideas of the photographer. You will have seen some pictures, but you will be able to get better and more complete understanding by talking it through in person. Ask the photographer to describe the style they shoot in, and be sure to ask any further questions if anything is unclear to you.  Having a good understanding of the different wedding photography styles will help you have a better conversation. Present your ideas, but try to keep an open mind and listen to what the photographer has to say. One of the key things to talk about in the interview is the level of experience each of the photographers have gained. You should ask how many weddings the photographer has shot, and how many similar to yours. Different weddings have can hugely different requirements and expectations, so it’s important that you understand how much experience they have that is especially relevant to you.  Find out if they are a specialist wedding photographer, or if they photograph various different events.

Article in English: Once you have established a good connection with your crush, you should start trying to get to know him or her better. Start with something that he or she has mentioned or that you have observed in your interactions. For example, “I see you have some books with you, what are you reading?” This is a low pressure question that lets your crush know you are interested in him or her. Then ask follow up questions.  For example, if he or she is excited to talk about the books, ask more questions/make connections related to the books. For example, “That is cool that you are reading that book. My favorite book by that author is ______.” Or, if he or she doesn't seem too excited about his or her books, you can move onto something else more open ended. Say something like, “So what else are you up to this week?”. Avoid bring up topics of conversation that show that you already know about your crushes’ interests because that might make you feel awkward. For example, if you know he plays soccer, avoid bringing that up directly. Don’t say “So tell me about your soccer season.” Instead, let the conversation get there naturally. Your crush will enjoy him/herself in a conversation with you much more if you are a good listener. Once you have started conversation, you should be face to face or in a listening position where you hear and see his or her face easily. Another key part of active listening is making consistent (but not constant) eye contact during your conversation.  Avoid distractions. Don’t send a text or look at your phone while you talk. This will make it seem like you are disinterested and might keep you from really hearing what your crush is saying. Repeat the main idea of what your crush is saying. This will let him or her know that you are listening and will give him or her the chance to clarify anything. Repeat the most meaningful parts of what he or she is saying. For example, you can say “So are you saying that you are new to painting but it feels like you have been doing it forever?”. This will help him or...

Article in English: Once you have finished writing, it is essential that you re-read your paragraph two or three times to check it for misspelled words and poor grammar. Spelling mistakes and bad grammar can significantly impact the perceived quality of your paragraph, even if the ideas and arguments it contains are of a high quality. It is very easy to overlook small mistakes when writing, so don't skip this step, even if you're in a rush.  Ensure that each sentence has a subject and that all proper nouns are capitalized. Also make sure that all of the subjects and verbs agree with each other and that you use the same tense across the entire paragraph. Use a dictionary to double-check the spelling of words that you are unsure about, don't just assume that they are correct. Check your paragraph for the proper use of punctuation, making sure that you use marks such as commas, colons, semicolons and ellipses in the correct context. Not only should the technical aspects of your writing be spot on, but you should also try to achieve clarity in your writing, as well as stylistic flow. You can do this by varying the length and format of your sentences and by using transitional words and a varied vocabulary. Don't: use long words or "thesaurus finds" for their own sake.Do: use well-known synonyms to vary your writing rather than repeat the same word many times.  The point of view of your writing should remain consistent throughout the paragraph, and indeed, the entire paper. For example, if you are writing in the first person (e.g., "I believe that...") you should not switch to a passive voice ("it is believed that") halfway through. However, you should also try to avoid beginning every sentence with "I think..." or "I contend that..." Try to vary the format of your sentences, as this will make the paragraph more interesting for the reader and help it to flow more naturally. For beginner writers, it is better to stick to short, to-the-point sentences which clearly express your point. Long, rambling sentences can very quickly become...

Проверьте орфографию и грамматику. Проверьте стилистику и логическую связность абзаца. Определите степень завершенности абзаца.


Article in English: Once you have found some clarity regarding the situation, and realized that your feelings for him are not reciprocated, it is time to match your expectations of what will happen in reality. The expectation that today will be the day that he asks you out, wants to get back together, or finally realizes that you are the girl of his dreams only serves to keep you in the painful cycle of getting your hopes up and then disappointing you over and over.  Center your expectations of the day on things that you have some control over such as having lunch with a friend, getting to class on time, and enjoying some time outside in nature. Begin each day with a positive outlook. Don’t allow yourself to pin your happiness on whether or not he reaches out to you. You have no control over how anyone else feels, acts, or behaves. By reining in your own expectations of what you believe should happen on any given day, you can give yourself some peace.  Be open to any possibility. For example, if he hasn’t called you in several days, you can stop stressing yourself out with the notion that it might happen today. By letting go of the expectation, you release yourself from the pain of it not being fulfilled. Magical thinking is the tendency that we learn as children to romanticize everything, and to find extra meaning and purpose in a relationship when it really doesn’t exist. When you think that you have met “the one”, that fate has brought you together, or that the two of you are meant to be, it can be difficult to let go of the hope that he will eventually see that you are the perfect girl for him.  Take off your rose-colored glasses. Allow yourself to see through your idealized version of him and notice his flaws. The truth is, there is no “perfect” person or relationship. Magical thinking is unhealthy because it creates fairy-tale standards that no real person could possibly live up to. Let go of unhealthy beliefs and rituals, such as getting up on a certain side of the bed every morning in the hope that doing so will make him...

Article in English: Once you have gauged the interest of your coworker and you have developed a basic level of camaraderie, you can attempt to bring up the topic of the one-night stand.  Your opening line could go something like this: “Hey, I really like talking with you. Would you like to take this conversation back to my place?” You can be more straightforward and ask, “Would you be interested in sleeping/having sex with me?” Be clear about what you want out of the affair. If it is simply a one-night stand that you are interested in, or if you are willing to consider the possibility of something more, be upfront about it. Let the person know your feelings and how you see the relationship developing in the future.   An example of how you can approach this is by saying, “Before we go through with this, I would like to be clear about my feelings and expectations.” This is also the time where you should discuss with your coworker privacy issues such disclosing details with other coworkers and posting things on Facebook about the affair. Once you have gotten to know your coworker and you are sure they are interested, arrange to meet them somewhere after work or on the weekend. To ensure privacy and your chances of success, meet at a bar or restaurant that you know your other coworkers do not frequent.

Article in English: Once you have had a constructive conversation about the topic, it is time to start working towards finding a solution. Don't expect that you will be able to resolve the situation overnight. This is a sensitive subject that might take a while to figure out.  Allow yourselves time to reflect. Remember that your first conversation on the subject does not have to result in resolution. After talking to your husband, take a few days to think about how you feel. Were you able to effectively communicate? Do you feel at all better about the situation? Start thinking about possible solutions. Write down any ideas that you have. Writing things down can help you to gain mental clarity. Once you have addressed the topic for the first time, make sure that you keep the discussion going. You don't have to talk about it every day, but let your husband know that you still have things to talk about. Tell him that you would like to work together to find a solution.  It is possible that your discussion of porn led to an argument. That's normal. Many couples fight about what are called "hot button" issues. Take some time to cool down. Say to your husband, "This conversation isn't productive right now. Let's walk away and take a little time to breathe." Make it clear that the discussion is not over. You can say, "This topic is important to me, so let's revisit it tomorrow after we've both had time to gather our thoughts." It might be very important to you that your husband immediately stops looking at porn. However, that might prove difficult for him to promise. Ask yourself whether you are willing to compromise.  Compromises can often be very useful in resolving marital issues. They can make each party feel like the other is helping to contribute to a solution. Figure out if you could handle a phased reduction of the porn viewing. For example, maybe you could say, "Are you willing to start by reducing the amount of porn you look at?" If you are willing to compromise, your husband will likely be willing to work with you....

Article in English: Once you have practiced waking up without an alarm clock and after you have set an established sleep pattern, you can try waking up without an alarm on a more regular basis. Arranging your bedroom to work with your circadian rhythms is a key step in this process. You should keep your curtains slightly open so your body will adjust to the light of morning; avoid using black out curtains.  Remember that the sun rises in the east; in the northern hemisphere, a south-facing orientation will receive more sunlight, and in the southern hemisphere a north-facing orientation will get more, but unless you are trying to wake up when the sun is high in the sky, you will still want to face to the east to catch the sun when it rises. If you need to get up before the sun rises, putting the lights in your room on a timer can also help, as this may not seem as disruptive as an alarm clock. If you have been using a white noise machine to block out the sounds of trains or street traffic, then you should stop using this (or use one that has a timer, so it stops before morning). If the weather permits, keep your window slightly open so you will hear sounds in the morning that will help wake you up. Multiple studies have show that regular exercise can improve the quality of your sleep, especially for people struggling with insomnia or other sleep disorders. You should aim for 30-40 minutes of aerobic exercise, 3-4 times per week. Aerobic exercise includes activities such as going for a walk, a hike, running, swimming or playing a game of soccer or basketball. Avoid foods that are high in sugar, fat, and highly processed grains. Instead, consume a diet primarily made of lean proteins, vegetables, fruit, whole grains and minimal fat. Eating a heavy, rich meal close to bedtime might also disrupt your sleep because it will take more energy to digest. Consider consuming foods rich in tryptophan, like milk, eggs, bananas or nuts. Tryptophan has been shown to help induce sleep. You probably already know that drinking a large cup of...

Article in English: Once you have recorded your blood pressure, it is important to know what the numbers mean. Use the following guide for reference:   Normal blood pressure: Systolic number of less than 120 and diastolic number of less than  80.  Prehypertension: Systolic number between 120 and 139, diastolic number between 80 and 89.  Stage 1 Hypertension: Systolic number between 140 and 159, diastolic number between 90 and 99.  Stage 2 Hypertension: Systolic number higher than 160 and diastolic number higher than 100.  Hypertensive Crisis: Systolic number higher than 180 and diastolic number higher than 110. Even if your blood pressure readings are far below the 120/80 "normal" mark, there is usually no cause for concern. A low blood pressure reading of, say, 85/55 mmHg is still considered to be acceptable, as long as no symptoms of low blood pressure are present. However, if you are experiencing symptoms of dizziness, lightheadedness, fainting, trouble concentrating, cold and clammy skin, fast and shallow breathing, dehydration, nausea, blurred vision and/or fatigue, it is advisable that you see a doctor right away, as your low blood pressure may be the result of an underlying condition, which could be serious or cause serious complications.. It's important to understand that a single high reading does not necessarily mean that you have high blood pressure. It could be the result of many factors.  If you take your blood pressure after exercising, after eating salty foods, drinking coffee, smoking, or during a period of high stress, your blood pressure might be uncharacteristically high. If the blood pressure cuff was too loose or too tight on your arm or too large or too small for your size, the readings could be inaccurate. As a result, you shouldn't worry too much about one-off readings, especially if your blood pressure is back to normal the next time you check it. However, if your blood pressure is consistently at or higher than 140/90 mm Hg, you may want to consult with a doctor who can put you on a treatment plan,...

Article in English: Once you have removed the oxygen sensors from your vehicle, submerge them in the bucket or industrial container that you've filled with gasoline. Given time, gasoline will clean the oxygen sensors. Make sure that the sensors are fully immersed in the gasoline, and that none of the liquid splashes out of the container or gets on your hands. Never smoke, light a candle, or have any other type of open flame when working near gasoline. Due to the flammable nature of gasoline, it's important that you cover the bucket or industrial container of gasoline. This will prevent the gas from catching fire, and also keep any wandering animals from accessing the gas. If the industrial container came with a lid, you can use this to cover the gas. Make sure to seal the lid tightly. If you're soaking the sensors in a bucket or a container that does not have its own lid, you'll need to find something to cover the opening with. Look for an appropriately sized lid among your pots and pans in the kitchen, or simply place a piece of plywood or a large book over the bucket opening. The gas won't clean the oxygen sensors immediately; you'll need to let them soak for at least 8 hours. At some point while the sensors are soaking in the container of gas, pick the container up and swirl it around several times. This will ensure that all parts of the sensors are being cleaned by the gasoline. After the sensors have soaked overnight, you'll need to reach into the bucket or container of gasoline and remove the sensors. Note their appearance: they should be much cleaner than when you put them in. Then, using a clean cotton cloth, wipe the gasoline off of the oxygen sensors and dry them fully.  In order to avoid getting gasoline on your hands, you can wear a pair of thick rubber gloves while removing the oxygen sensors from the gasoline. You can use a pair of gloves similar to those that you would use to wash dishes. Once the oxygen sensors have been wiped dry, use your wrench to insert them back in the exhaust manifold(s) and the other...

Article in English: Once you have removed your tampon, you should dispose of it properly. This means never letting the tampon simply fall into the toilet and then flushing the tampon down the drain. This will clog the drain of the toilet and could damage the plumbing. You should take a piece of toilet paper and wrap it around the tampon. This will prevent blood from dripping everywhere and protect your hands from touching the blood on the tampon. Wrapping the tampon in toilet paper will also make it appear more discreet and hidden. You may do this to try to cover up the tampon. Make sure you dispose of the tampon in the garbage. Throwing it away as soon as you take it out will contain the mess and allow you to get rid of the tampon discreetly. Sometimes tampons can start to smell if they are left out for a few days so you may start a separate garbage for your tampons next to the garbage or in the bathroom cupboard. Make sure you dispose of it after one to two days.

Article in English: Once you have selected the berries you are going to use--whether you picked them yourself or bought them at the store--place them into a colander and cool water over them, stirring the berries around and making sure they are thoroughly rinsed. You don’t want any bacteria that may have been on the berries lingering in your jam. You can also use frozen strawberries if you don’t have access to fresh strawberries. and crush your strawberries. Use a knife or spoon to cut or scoop the stems and leaves off of the top of the berries. Your goal is to remove any lingering bits of green. Once all of the berries have been hulled, pour the berries into a large mixing bowl. Use a large wooden spoon to crush the berries so that they turn into a clumpy mush. Crushing the berries releases the little bit of pectin that they contain naturally.  You should have about six cups of crushed berries after the mushing process. You can also chop the strawberries up into quarters rather than crushing them. Pectin is what helps the jam become thick--it occurs naturally in fruit and most store-bought pectin comes from apples. Mix the sugar and pectin together. Pour the crushed strawberries into a large cooking pot and add the pectin-sugar mixture. If you don’t want to use pectin, you will have to use about seven cups of sugar in your recipe. Your jam might be a little runnier than normal jams. Stir the berries and the pectin mixture. Continue to stir it every so often so that it doesn’t burn while it comes to a boil. When the mixture is boiling, add the rest of the sugar (about four cups) and stir. Once the mixture has been boiling on high for a minute, remove it from the heat. Skim off any foam that has formed on the top of the jam mixture. The foam is just jam that is stuffed full of air so you can leave it on the mixture if you want--it is harmless. Scoop the foam off and put it in a bowl if you want to use it later. You can actually recover the foam, making it back into jam that you can use right away. Let a spoon sit in ice cold...

Article in English: Once you have shaped your eyebrows, apply eyebrow wax to straighten out the rest of your curls. This will lock in the shape as well as straighten out the curl. If you are using waxing as a means to remove excess hairs rather than tweezers, it can be painful and irritate sensitive skin. If you are unsure how your skin will react and have the time, use professional waxing services. Apply brow gel on top of the wax to lock your curly eyebrows in the straight position. Having the wax base allows the gel to adhere to it as it keeps your eyebrows in place.  Use an eyebrow stick or brush to help apply the gel over your eyebrows but avoid placing the gel on the tip of your eyebrows. Cover the area with special absorbing eyebrow film and a towel for 15 minutes but check every couple of minutes to ensure the hairs are placed in the right direction.   Wipe off any excess product from the brush before applying. After 15 minutes remove the film and towel and use a dry cotton swab to remove unsightly gel. Brow pomade works just as well as gel. Just like hair products, eyebrow gel and pomade will hold your hair in place but provide different looks. Brow gel can make your eyebrows look and feel hard and crunchy while pomade won’t. Use massage oil, coconut oil, or even olive oil to further straighten your eyebrows. Massage in a single direction rather than circular in order to keep the straightness. Use your fingertips and repeat every night before bed. Remove the oil from your face each morning by washing your face with hot water and dabbing your eyebrows dry with a towel. Make sure not to rub but dab in order to keep the straightness. Employ the bristles and chemicals in clear mascara to help shape your eyebrows and keep them in place. Mascara that is the same shade as your eyebrows can fill in any sparseness if you’re attempting a fuller look. Use tiny hair like strokes when applying the colour. Eyebrow pencils that are the same colour as your hair or darker create an unnatural solid look. Give your eyebrows dimension by...

Article in English: Once you have trained your guinea pig in her cage, you may want to train your guinea pig outside of her cage during playtime. Start somewhere small. It needs to be an area that you can control easily and where you can keep an eye on her. You should make sure there aren't any small vents that she can run into without getting out. A bathroom or hallway is a great place to start. They are small, have few wires that are close to the ground, and have very few places for your guinea pig to hide. This will help keep her safe and help you keep track of her while still allowing her to exercise. You need to pick a dark, out of the way corner of the room to place her litter tray. This will encourage her to seek that corner out and use it to potty. Since this will be the only thing that has her smell on it, she will be able to find it, no matter which corner you put it in.  Try to leave some litter in it that has already been used. This way it will feel like her territory. If you want, you can let her loose for a little while first to see which corner she prefers to go to the potty and then place her litter tray there. Guinea pigs like to use the potty in dark corners away from other things, just like they do in their cages. To help persuade your guinea pig to use the corner where you placed her tray, you need to cover up the remaining corners so she cannot run there to potty.  If she has no other dark corner to pee or poop in, she will be more likely to use her litter tray in the other corner. If you want to, you can also place a newspaper around the room in case she has an accident. This will make it easier to clean up. Once your guinea pig gets used to the area, you can expand it a little at a time. Since she should already know where her litter tray is, she should use it even though her play area is bigger. Just make sure you keep wires off the floor and hard to reach hiding spaces covered so you don't injure or lose your guinea pig. Just like with training in the cage, do not scold her if she uses the bathroom...

Article in English: Once you have your parents' attention, tell them about your desire to use tampons. You want them to clearly understand your position. Even if you don't think they will understand, you need to express your desire anyway. Start by saying something like, “So I've been thinking about it, and I want start using tampons.” Explaining all the reasons why you want to do something is important for helping the other person become convinced. Use persuasion tactics like proper timing, being willing to do something in return, and being persistent. Your parents will probably be impressed by a logical argument made without whining.  Choose to ask your parents for a discussion about tampons when they are relaxed, not right after they get home from work. Be willing to do chores or another task they have been wanting you to accomplish in return for permission to use tampons. If they say no at first, meet any conditions they offer and ask them again. Keep asking until they relent. Try, “I am old enough for tampons and I need them because I play sports.” Be kind and polite when you ask for permission. Make eye contact with your mom or dad and say nice things about them. Don't flatter them to get them to agree with you; instead, be genuine with any compliments you give. Also avoid fidgeting, whining, or accusing them if you don't like their response.  Say, “Thank you for taking time to meet with me today.” Use words like can, could, may, might, would, and so on. These words are humble rather than demanding, and will likely help you get what you want. For example, say, "I would like to start wearing tampons," instead of, "I have to wear tampons now." If the answer is “no,” don't throw a fit. This will only assure your parents that you are not ready for the responsibility of using tampons. Instead of whining, complaining, or being out of sorts, accept their judgement calmly.   Don't tattle on a sibling in order to make yourself look better.   If your older sister uses tampons without your parents' permission, for example, telling on...

Article in English: Once you have your partner on the phone, take things at a speed you're both comfortable with. There's no "correct" way to have phone sex.  If it helps you relax, spend a few minutes chatting before you get started... just don't let yourselves get distracted from your sexy goal. A low, soft tone of voice or heavy breathing can help set the mood, but don't force it if doing so is unnatural for you: speaking and breathing comfortably in your normal tone of voice will be sexier than an awkwardly forced attempt at sounding sexy. Getting started is possibly the hardest part, especially if it's your first time! Pick a topic that's easy for you to bring up, but which has the potential to spiral into steamier territory. Examples:   How much you miss them, or wish they were with you What you would like to do if they were with you What you're wearing and how you look in it What you're doing How you're feeling Ask your partner to describe any of the above to you Once you have the ball rolling and you're feeling comfortable, try getting bolder with your descriptions, or bring up new, sexier topics. A good approach is to describe, or ask your partner to describe, the following three things:   What you're doing: Describe how you look and the way you're touching yourself. Be as coy or as raunchy as you like!  Ask for "advice" -- for example, "should I start playing with my underwear?" Tell them what you'd like them to do, if they're willing. Don't feel bad if you're not comfortable with touching yourself -- you can still let them know that you're enjoying simply listening to them.    What you're imagining: This could be, for example, what you'd like to be doing with your partner, a moment from great sex the two of you have had in the past, or a mental image of what they're describing to you.  You might want to start out slow: begin with tame descriptions like "first, I'd stroke your hair" or "I really like the way your chest looks in a T-shirt", before moving on to steamier things like "then I'd kiss your neck" or "remember...

Article in English: Once you know how much spare cash you have, you need to commit to spending no more than what you have. If your problem is shopping for clothes -you have a passion for fashion- you need to learn to ask yourself "Do I really need this?" in the store. Don't waste money on designer brands and shop at used clothes stores. Shop during sales, but only if you actually need things from the store.  What are you priorities in life -- good food, vacations, or just time with the family? Knowing what you personally care about buying can help avoid costly impulse buys. What things in your life can you cut and hardly notice -- such as a scone to go with your morning coffee, the 200 cable channels you hardly watch, bottled water, etc? Credit cards are not free money. Interest rates on credit cards are huge, even if they don't make you pay them immediately. Managing your money wisely means using your credit cards wisely-- as extensions of your budget, not separate budgets. That said, responsible card use helps to build credit, which is required for home and car loans. Some crucial things to remember include:  Read all of the agreement form before signing up for your card. What is the monthly interest rate? How is minimum payment calculated? Are there annual or overdraw fees? Always try and pay more than the monthly minimum. If you pay the entire balance each month, for example, you won't pay any interest down the road. One credit card is enough -- juggling multiple bills and statements is a surefire way into credit card debt. Curb spending on credit so that you stay within 30-40% of your limit. You should never get close to your limit, as this is often difficult to repay without exorbitant interest rates. Impulse buys are the bane of smart shoppers and money managers. You need to ask yourself, before buying anything, do you need this to live? Will you enjoy it for a long time, or is it a fleeting pleasure? Avoid shopping as a recreational activity, instead saving it for the essentials.  Making grocery lists will keep you on...

Article in English: Once you know what you want to try, stop shaving and let the facial hair below your chin, around your mouth, and below your nose grow out. It should be nice and bushy before you start shaving and shaping. After about one week, you should have some good growth.  Itchy skin for a few days is a normal part of growing a beard. Don’t let yourself feel self-conscious about scratching your face often. If you find it’s particularly irritating, you can use moisturizing lotion to sooth the skin a bit. You can grow out the rest of your facial hair as well, though you don’t have to. Having the extra hair can give you a little more flexibility when determining the size of your goatee. Start from your neck by making small cuts with a trimmer blade. Work your way around your chin and up your cheeks until you have the basic outline of what you want your goatee to look like. You’ll probably want the outline to start about an inch above your Adam’s apple on your throat. This may feel a bit long, but you will always be able to shorten it slightly if you don’t like the way it looks. If you shave too close too soon, you will have to wait to grow that back. . Now that you have an outline, you can shape the edges of your goatee to get it to the size and shape you want. Make sure you have a clean, sharp razor to get the shaping accurate. If you use a manual razor, a new razor will give a cleaner shave. If you use an electric shaver, you will find the trimming tool handier to use.  Before trimming, run a comb through your beard to straighten out curled hair. This will make your hair easier to trim, and will give you a better sense of how long your goatee will be.  Make sharp, clean corners at the jawline. Get the right width. A typical goatee will be about the same width as your mouth. You can help to define this width by smiling. Use the creases from your dimples to better judge where the edges of your goatee should be. No matter what kind of goatee you're shaping, make sure that both sides match symmetrically. Every few minutes,...

Article in English: Once you know you've been cheated on, you want to flee. If your spouse is truly sorry, and if you want, in any way, to repair the relationship, you need to try to work it through together. It won't be useful to simply blame your spouse and hate the person s/he cheated with. If there were problems or signals before the infidelity, they will probably come sharply into focus now. If your marriage is to truly mend, you will need to examine whether or not your behaviors contributed to the loneliness in your marriage. This is not to say that you are responsible for your partner's decision. It is only to say that what is most useful now will be an honest and unsparing evaluation of your entire marriage - including your own behavior.  There are a lot of things to consider in the wake of this awful revelation: Did you behave in ways that could be considered "unlovable"? Not occasional grumpiness. We all do that. But real, unkind, uncaring, unlovable behavior could cause, even someone who loves us, to go look elsewhere for kindness, compassion, and a tender touch. If you're cold and withhold yourself from your mate, realize that your spouse got into this relationship for your companionship. If you withhold kindness, tenderness, or sex from your mate, s/he may seek it elsewhere, or end the relationship. It's not reasonable to believe your spouse would take a vow of celibacy indefinitely. Being kind, tender, and/or sexy with your mate can make a real difference in your relationship. Trust your judgment. This is very hard to do after you've discovered your spouse has been involved with someone else. When you find your spouse has been unfaithful, it makes you feel embarrassed, foolish, ashamed, and afraid. It undermines your confidence. It rattles your ability to make even the smallest decisions - where to eat, what to wear.  You second-guess every little thing. It's a terrible time for most people in your situation. You wonder if your whole relationship has been a lie. The good news is, it probably hasn't been. Think...

Summary in Russian:

Подавите желание уйти. Трезво посмотрите на вещи. Переживите гнев, грусть, страх, недоверие и стыд. Выберите возможность любить снова.

Article in English: Once you start gaining comments on your videos, you can interact with a few people per video by replying to their comments, engaging in a conversation, and/or liking their comments. Many viewers will appreciate your interaction and view it as an incentive to visit the next video. While you don't have to take every suggestion which comes your way, making popular tweaks to your content will both show viewers that you read their comments and demonstrate that you value their opinions. If you don't want to take suggestions from your viewers, you can also try doing a contest with a reward or shouting out different subscribers at the end of your video. on other people's videos. YouTube is a social platform, and much of the support you'll find comes from other users just like you. Commenting on these users' videos will help the users while making your channel more visible. Keep your comments polite, sincere, and non-spammy. Social media pages such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram all allow your viewers to see a different, non-YouTube side of you. While subscribers often enjoy this intimate peek into your private life, having social media pages for your YouTube channel also means that you can reach more people outside of your YouTube channel. It's also good to have social media accounts in case you have to update subscribers outside of YouTube. Many YouTubers rely on subscriber support from Patreon, which is a service that allows subscribers to pay a small monthly donation to you. Patreon is less invasive than asking for donations via PayPal or similar, and it allows you to reward your subscribers based on how much they donate per month. This is also a great way to begin making money when you haven't yet hit the 10,000 lifetime channel views mark. Don’t expect anything from anyone on YouTube. The less cocky you appear, the more likely you are able to achieve success. Remember to be respectful with people's time as well. Don't upload filler or meaningless content just for the sake of uploading.

Article in English: Once you start talking to the girl, you can flirt with her a bit by asking questions to show that you want to get to know the girl while teasing her at the same time. You don’t need to ask anything too serious and should keep things lighthearted so you have a fun, easy conversation going. You can ask her questions about her hobbies, about what she likes to do for fun, or about her pet cat; just keep things fun and easy and don’t make her feel like she’s being interrogated. Here are some examples of questions you can ask:  “So is blue your favorite color or do you just wear it because it matches your eyes?” “Do you spend your evenings hanging out with your cat or are there other things you like to do for fun?” “Are you really a Giants fan or do you just like wearing orange?” Another way to flirt with the girl is to give her a nice compliment to show that you really do like her. You shouldn’t compliment any parts of her body or say anything too sexual, but you should point out something great about her appearance or her personality to show that you want to get to know her more. Here are some things you can say:  “Has anyone ever told you that you have the most incredible laugh? I’ve never heard anything like it.” “You’re the only girl I know who looks great in neon.” “You’re really good at talking to new people, aren’t you? How do you do that?” You may be too nervous to really pay attention to what the girl is telling you when you first come up to her because you’re so worried about keeping the conversation going. However, if you really want her to like you and to show that you’re interested, then you have to make an effort to really listen to whatever it is she says to you so she sees that you want to do more than just pick her up. Here’s what you should do:  Make eye contact Put away your phone Don’t interrupt her or give her advice when she’s talking Don’t try to compare her experiences to yours when she’s trying to say something serious Bring up something she mentioned earlier in the conversation later on...

Article in English: Once you start to get over the initial pain of rejection, it's time to start moving on. However, you can't do this if you don't believe you're worth it! Start to reaffirm yourself mentally. You can use whatever positive thoughts you want, but the following three work well: You are beautiful/handsome (whichever you prefer). You are intelligent. Your crush is foolish for not accepting you. Never feel like you're weak or helpless without this person. Admire your independence. Putting your former crush on a pedestal diminishes yourself. Asking someone out and getting a "no" is bad enough, but when your crush is actually rude back to you, the embarrassment can be almost unbearable. The shame you may feel will gradually start to fade — this will go faster for some people than for others. Don't continue to focus on your negative feelings from the past, replaying them over and over again in your head. Instead, let them go and pursue new, positive emotions instead. Remember that you can never change the past. This means that it's illogical to worry about it. Why worry about what you can't change? Healthy, mature people don't make fun of the people who have crushes on them after they confess the way they feel. They don't tease them afterward. If your crush did this to you, there is one silver lining: you now know that your crush is an immature, insecure person. It should feel good to know that the person you've been worrying about is definitely at fault. Over time, you should start to feel better. You should gradually start letting go of the shame and embarrassment from your experience and start focusing more on your own value. However, if your old crush works his or her way back into your life, this person can throw you off the path to recovery. If you can help it, you don't want to talk to him or her before you're 100% better. If s/he tries to get back into your good graces, don't be afraid to ask for some space. If your former crush won't get the message, be direct. It's OK to say, "I don't want to talk to you for a...

Сосредоточьтесь на собственной ценности. Избавьтесь от чувства стыда. Поймите, что «игры» вашего возлюбленного инфантильны. Не позволяй этому человеку вернуться в вашу жизнь. Начните смотреть на этого человека так, как будто он вам совсем не важен.


Article in English: Once you suspect that you have an ulcer, you should consider writing down when you feel the pain intensify. Make a daily log as to what you are eating. Also keep notes about your daily activities. Try to identify common patterns, as this will help you and your medical professional come to a proper diagnosis. It will also give you an idea of what foods and activities to avoid. Overeating will make your stomach work harder, and increase your stomach acid. Instead, prepare smaller portions, drink water, and stop eating when you begin to feel full. But remember, although eating less might reduce pain, it will not cure your ulcer by itself. Greasy and acidic foods can increase the level of acid in your stomach. This will aggravate your ulcer, and cause you discomfort. Instead of fried foods, try to bake or grill your food. As for spicy food, you don't have to give it up, just tone it down until you get your ulcer under control. Some drinks might contribute to higher acid levels in your stomach.  These drinks will aggravate your condition, cause pain, and increase the length of your healing process. Instead, consider green tea, milk, or water. Avoid the following:  Caffeinated drinks like coffee and black tea. Sugary drinks. Carbonated drinks. Citrus-based drinks. Alcohol can potentially make your condition even worse. It is associated with H. pylori infections. There is a good chance it could contribute to stomach ulcers. Limit alcohol consumption to as little as possible. Smoking is associated with peptic ulcer disease in people who are infected with H.pylori. Smoking also increases the production of stomach acid. Stopping smoking will not only decrease acid, strengthen your body against H. pylori, but it will make you generally healthier over time.

Article in English: Once you're comfortable with the keyboard and can play scales without mistakes, you're ready to graduate to real music. You can play songs that are already relatively simple to play, or look for beginner arrangements of more complex songs.  Try to find beginner sheet music that includes the name of the note inside the note symbol. This will help you start to read the music more easily. You can find sheet music like this in beginner's books and on some websites and smartphone apps. You can buy collections of sheet music arranged for different levels, either online or at your favorite music or book store. You can also download and print sheet music off the internet. Websites such as Musicnotes allow you to download sheet music and make it available on all of your devices. If you have a tablet, you can display your music on your tablet instead of printing it out (just make sure you turn off sleep mode). Keep in mind that because composition and arrangement copyrights are strictly controlled, you will seldom be able to download sheet music for free legally – particularly if you're looking for newer or more popular music. To get the most out of your training and progress more quickly, daily practice is essential. Young children may only be able to practice for 10 or 15 minutes a day. However, if you're an older student or an adult, try to practice at least 30 minutes a day. Professional musicians practice many hours everyday.  If you can practice at the same time every day, eventually practicing piano will just become another thing you do every day, similar to brushing your teeth or taking a shower. At that point, you won't think about it in terms of whether you want to do it or feel like doing it – you'll just do it. Music theory books can help you advance your understanding of music as well as improve your ability to sight-read music notation. You can find these books online or at music stores.  You may also be able to find websites with music theory exercises that can help improve your skills at reading music....

Article in English: Once you're finished, flip the whole canvas over and tap it with your finger. It should sound like a drum and feel quite taut. If there is any creasing or strange pulling, you'll be able to see it from here. If you mis-stapled or don't have the canvas particularly taut, pull the staples and fix it by repeating the steps in the previous section. The canvas will sag far worse once it is painted, if the canvas is loose. With some canvases, it's appropriate to insert shims into the corner joints to further stretch the canvas. This won't always be necessary, but if you want the canvas to be especially tight, or you think it could be tighter but don't want to take the time to remove all the staples and start over, this can be an excellent way of tightening it a bit more. Wooden shims are very thin shards of wood that you can buy in packs at the hardware store for a few dollars. They usually come in a variety of sizes, which means you'll be able to customize the stretch and fill in the gap if necessary. After stretching your canvas, it's important to let the canvas rest and tighten up on the frame before you attempt to prime it or paint on it. In a room-temperature area free of excess moisture and humidity, a canvas should tighten up and be firm in about a day or two. . After you've stretched your canvas, you're ready to prime it, using gesso or the primer of your choice. Sometimes "tightener" will be added to the canvas and allowed to dry before the primer, and sometimes not. Then, canvas needs to be primed by painting even, thin coats using the brush in one direction. Most canvases should be primed with three coats.  Apply one coat and let it dry thoroughly to the touch, then go back over the canvas with another coat. Use extremely fine-grained sandpaper to go over the paint before priming the canvas one more time. Painting the primer on in the same direction allows the canvas to look fairly clean and simple, a great backdrop for your painting. Use sandpaper to flatten any texture or bumps of primer on the canvas.

Article in English: Once you're happy with the way your wheels look, don't wait to dry them off. If you do, small water droplets may dry on them, giving them an unappealing, spotty appearance. You've just worked hard to get your wheels looking great, so don't forget this crucial step! The best towels for this job are older, worn-out terry cloth towels or all-purpose cleaning wipes. You want a soft towel so that you don't leave swirl marks, but high-quality towels (like those made from microfiber) can be ruined by using them on wheels, even after they're clean. A high-quality paste wax can help keep your wheels in tip-top shape by preventing brake dust from building up and causing pitting in the future. Before you replace your hubcaps, consider waxing your wheels — it doesn't take long and it's a good long-term investment. For maximum protection, re-wax your wheels every six months as part of their regular maintenance. After you have finished washing, rinsing and drying the wheels, you're more or less done. Replace your vehicle's hub caps (which you may want to soak and clean separately) to finish this job.

Article in English: Once you've adopted your own fit and healthy lifestyle, you can start slowly convincing your family to join you. One great way to do this is to get the whole family involved in the cooking process.  Get kids to help you with baking by doing simple tasks such as sifting the flour during home baking, or beating the eggs for a healthy omelette. Ask family members what their specific likes and likes and dislikes are — if Dad doesn't like onions, maybe you could leave them out of the next salad you make. Host a family pizza night — everyone can roll out their own wholewheat pizza dough and load it with their favorite healthy toppings. This is also a fun way for the family to spend time together. When healthy food looks good, it makes it a lot more tempting to eat, so try to jazz up your healthy dishes by adding colorful fresh ingredients and interesting textures.  If you're trying to get kids to eat fruit, a colorful fruit salad will look a lot more appealing than a few brown pieces of apple. Mixing in some fresh fruit juice or yogurt will also add flavor to the dish and make it more interesting. If you're trying to convince adult members of the family to eat salad, you may not have much luck with a boring combination of lettuce, tomato and cucumber (although these make a good base). Try adding things like strawberries or olives for color, nuts and seeds for texture and eggs and avocados for flavor. A tasty dressing made from olive oil, balsamic vinegar and crushed garlic can also help to make a salad more attractive to picky eaters. Another, sneakier way of introducing your family to healthy eating is to hide healthy foods in tasty dishes. In this way, your family can enjoy their mealtimes, but still benefit from the vitamins and nutrients that healthy food provides.  On it's own, spinach isn't a very attractive ingredient, but if you try hiding it inside puff pastry with some garlic and low-fat cheese, your family will soon be fighting over it! You could also try introducing items like lettuce, carrots and bean...

Article in English: Once you've assembled your information, you can get started on outlining your presentation. A presentation must start with a solid introduction that grabs the audience's attention.  Include the basics of introducing yourself. You can say something like, "I'm Clara Thompson from Clean Water Action, and I would like to address your company today." Get your audience's attention with a question or a fact. For example, you could ask: "Have you ever passed a body of water covered in green sludge and wondered how this happened? The answer may surprise you." You don’t have to write your presentation in chronological order. If you want to work on your main points first and save the introduction for last, you can. Your body should make up about 60 to 70% of your presentation, so put all your best points here. Think of your body as the path to your point. Therefore, you want to find a way to present the information in a logical fashion. Start with the problem, talk about the consequences, and offer a solution.  For example, you're trying to get the corporation to alter their recycling program. Start by overviewing the vast amount of corporate pollution in the world. Explain the consequences of this. Show how pollution contributes to climate change, then show what the corporation can do through changes in their policies. Linking statements are transitional statements that help bridge the gap between ideas. This signals to your audience you're going to switch topics, so your presentation doesn't get confusing.  Common linking statements include things like, "Another important issue...," "Based on this data, you can now see..." and, "This brings me to my main point..." For example, "Now that I've shown you the effects of corporate pollution, this brings me to my main point. What can you do to stop it?" Your audience may get bored with data and lecturing. It's a good idea to add graphics to your slides to shake things up. A short video may also help.  If you have any graphs or diagrams that will help illustrate your point,...

Article in English: Once you've determined that you can't access the account of the person whom you suspect blocked you, contact a friend of yours who was also a friend of the other person and ask them if the person's account is still live. If they confirm that the account is still active, you know you've been blocked. This is the only way to ensure that you've been blocked (or haven't been blocked) without contacting the person directly, but some will consider it to be an invasion of privacy. If you follow the person on Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, or some other social media site, check to see if you suddenly can't find their account. This might indicate that they've blocked you here as well. Alternatively, look for an indication that they deleted their Facebook page. Many people will announce that they have closed their Facebook account on alternate social media. Ultimately, the only way to be sure that someone has blocked you is by asking them directly. If you choose to do this, make sure it isn't in a threatening or abrasive manner. You must also be prepared to hear that they have indeed blocked you, however hard that may be to hear. Only do this as a last resort—if a long-term friend has blocked you, for example, it might be worth talking to them to try to salvage the relationship. Otherwise, it might be best to take the hit and move on.

Article in English: Once you've done a reality check and realize that you really are dreaming, try to stay calm and not get too excited about the fact that you're dreaming. If you do this, then it's likely that you'll wake up. Instead, stay calm and immersed in the world of your dreams, and start to control small things before you build up toward something more elaborate.  You can start carefully trying to change the scenery or just to move through the space of your dream. You can start to touch things, and attempt to make small objects appear or disappear. Once you're comfortably lucid dreaming and feel like you have a fair amount of control over your dreams, you can start to aim a bit higher when you try to control your dreams. You can make yourself fly, summon people, change the scenery completely, trying to return to a place from your childhood or even to travel through time. As you get more and more used to lucid dreaming, you'll be able to have the dreams you want more regularly. When you wake up, remember to record the dream. Mark the point at which you realized you were lucid dreaming, and write down all of the things you were and were not able to do. If there's something you are never able to do when you're lucid dreaming, such as flying, then ask yourself what's holding you back. Once you're dreaming and have recognized that you're in a dream, you should tell yourself that you're dreaming every so often. If you don't do this, then you may forget that you are actually dreaming, and you won't feel as in control of everything that is happening. If you keep reminding yourself that you are dreaming, then you will feel more capable of changing and controlling your dream situation. One thing you can try to do when you're lucid dreaming is to fly. You may not be able to fly at first, but you can build yourself up to get there. You can tell yourself, "Okay, now I'm going to fly," to make yourself get into the mindset of being ready to fly. You can start hopping around, jumping up and down, and moving your body in an upwards...

Article in English: Once you've found the Big Dipper, you should be able to easily spot the little Dipper.  Remember that the two farthest most stars in the Big Dipper's handle point to the North Star. The North Star is the first star in the handle of the Little Dipper. The Little Dipper is not as bright as the Big Dipper. It looks similar to the Big Dipper, though. It has a handle made up of three stars that connects to a four-star bowl. It is harder to find the Little Dipper because the stars are not as bright in it, especially if you are in a city. The Big Dipper is what is called an asterism. That means it is a pattern of stars that is not a constellation. It is part of the constellation Ursa Major, the Big Bear.  The Big Dipper stars are the bear's tail and hindquarters. The Ursa Major constellation can be best seen in April at around 9 p.m. Using a drawing for reference (there are many online) should help you sketch out the rest of the stars that form the Big Bear once you find the Big Dipper.  Ursa Major is the third largest constellation and one of 88 official constellations.

Article in English: Once you've got your degrees, you'll want to find a teaching or research position in which to work. Teaching at universities is where most professional scholars end up. Your college should have resources to help you find a job after you graduate. Try to find positions with good benefits and pay, as you will likely have to pay back a large number of loans. Try to get a position with a college or university, since you will have many resources available to you at institutions like this that you would not have elsewhere. Most colleges and universities allow professors to work full time and earn tenure.  Tenure provides those in the academic profession with some benefits, including protection from termination without due process or without cause. Typically tenure at a top-ranked research institution requires some degree of demonstrable funding (especially in sciences and engineering disciplines) and a strong record of publications. There is also a 7-year trial period to determine whether you are eligible for tenure. Being a good teacher with an undistinguished research record will typically not get you tenure. In sciences and engineering, starting assistant professors are typically given funds to build a lab, buy specialized equipment and supplies, and get their projects off the ground. This would usually be thought of by the junior faculty members as an investment that their university has made in them. They should try very hard to make good on this investment through securing their own funding, typically 2-3x their startup, before coming up for tenure. As a professor, you'll be required to teach classes in your subject. Some will be closely related to the subject you study but some might be a bit of a stretch, especially when you're just starting out. This means that you will have to talk in front of other people. Sometimes it will be a very large number of people, if you're teaching large freshman lecture classes. Don't be intimidated though. You'll get practice in teaching classes while you are in graduate...
