Article in English: Ivy can still survive even when pulled from the ground, but will have a much harder time doing so on dry, rough terrain. Leave your pulled ivy out on a rocky area or concrete slab that gets full sunlight. It may take a few days, but you’ll notice the plant begin to wilt and die as it absorbs the heat and loses nutrients being stuck on dry land. If you have enough supplies on hand, you can store the ivy in large plastic bags or garbage bags for several days or weeks. Instead of overdosing the ivy with too much sunlight, you’ll starve the plant of light and remove it from its growth source. Keep the ivy/bags in a cool, dry area away from plantable ground or trees. If you happen to have a wood chipper on hand, you can put the ivy through the chipper to destroy it. This will kill it, but to be safe you should dispose of the chips away from your home and garden to prevent a possible reinfestation. If you don't have a chipper, you can lay the ivy out in a sunny location and pass over it a few times with a lawn mower. Leave the chopped-up vines to dry out in the sun.

Article in English: James Bond isn't a great secret agent because he was the strongest, sneakiest, or the smartest. What he lacks in traditional action-hero skills, he makes up for in his ability to adapt to himself to the situation and the setting. He oozes charisma. A great secret agent has to be able to charm complete strangers, manipulating them to do what you want. If your target is playing high-stakes poker in Morocco, you've got to be able chat your way past the doorman, ante up, and charm your way into the game. How do you do it? Charisma. To practice, work on getting phone numbers from strangers in public. Chat up people you don't know and work your way into their graces. Practice your witty one-offs, pithy comebacks, and all-around good-natured charm. Go places you might not be welcome and try to fit in and learn everything you can from the locals. Can you pretend to be a southern mill worker, struggling to make ends meet? Can you pretend to be a French-Canadian diplomat? What about a singer-songwriter from Belize? A good secret agent says yes. Learn about both high and low culture. If you've got to embed with French dignitaries who are operating illegal smuggling operations, you've got to be able to talk French wine and opera with the best of them. You also might be expected to sneak into an oil derrick and be comfortable next to hard-drinking roughnecks, which means you better know at least one George Jones song off the top of your head. If a secret agent gets caught by security guards at midnight hiding in the records room with a flashlight, he must come up with an excuse or an escape in the blink of an eye and make that lie believable. Likewise, if you're the one finding the suspicious behavior, you've got to be able to find the lie quickly and efficiently. Learning to detect lies can help make you a better liar as well.  Watch body language. Liars tend to fold up, keeping their limbs in and their body away from others, symbolizing discomfort. People telling the truth will "spread out" more. Liars will avoid...

Article in English: Japanese language has four writing systems, each of which is composed of different characters. This may sound like a lot to learn, but every word in Japanese, regardless of which writing system it comes from, is pronounced with some combination of only 46 basic sounds. Sorting out the different writing systems and their uses is an important part of learning Japanese. Here's a brief overview:  Hiragana is a Japanese syllabary, phonetic characters that make up one Japanese writing system. Unlike the English alphabet, each character stands for one syllable, which may include a vowel and a consonant sound. Katakana is also a syllabary, most often used for foreign words or onomatopoeic sounds (like bang or squeak). Together, hiragana and katakana account for the entire range of sounds in the Japanese language. Kanji are Chinese characters that were adopted as a Japanese writing system. Whereas hiragana and katakana are simply phonetic letters, kanji are ideograms, characters which have meaning. There are thousands of kanji characters, with about 2000 in common use.  Hiragana and katakana were derived from these characters. The same 46 sounds that are used to pronounce hiragana and katakana are also used to pronounce kanji. The Latin alphabet is used in Japanese to write acronyms, company names, and other words for aesthetic reasons. Called Romaji ("Roman letters"), Japanese can also be written in Latin letters.  This is not done in Japan, but it is used by beginning Japanese speakers to "spell out" Japanese characters. However, there are many sounds in Japanese which are difficult to express in Latin letters, and many homonyms (many more than English) which become confusing.  Therefore, students of Japanese are encouraged to begin learning Japanese characters as soon as possible, and avoid using Latin letters as a crutch. The 46 sounds in the Japanese language are composed of one of five vowel sounds or a combination of a vowel and a consonant, with the exception of one sound composed of only a consonant. Vowel...

Article in English: Jasmine needs soil with plenty of drainage to grow. Fill the pot with a well-draining potting mix or add loam-based compost to the soil to improve its drainage.  Make sure the flower pot you choose has drainage holes to avoid overwatering the plant.  To test the soil's drainage, dig a hole about 12 inches (30 cm) deep and fill it with water. If the soil drains in 5-15 minutes, it is well-draining. Jasmine prefers warm temperatures (at least 60 °F (16 °C)) and several hours of shade to grow. Choose a spot for your jasmine pot that receives sunlight but with around 2-3 hours of shade a day. If placing the pot indoors, choose a plant near a south-facing window so it can receive direct sunlight. Cover the seed with a light layer of soil. If you're planting a seedling, make sure the crown of the plant is level with the soil. Cover the roots completely.  If you're planting a seedling, loosen the roots with your hands to help it adapt to its new environment faster.  You can buy jasmine seeds or seedlings from most garden centers or nurseries. Using a watering can or hose, water your plant until water runs out the drainage holes. When you're finished watering, the soil should be damp but not waterlogged.  Watering the flower immediately will moisten the soil and help your plant acclimate to the pot. For best results, use a spray bottle or watering can to moisten the freshly-planted jasmine.

Article in English: Jaundice typically develops on the second or third day of life and generally follows a predictable pattern.  In healthy bodies, bilirubin is a normal byproduct that occurs in the blood stream as red blood cells are broken down. The bilirubin travels to the liver, where it is excreted into the bile duct and eventually in your stool.  In cases of newborns with jaundice, the liver has not begun to work efficiently yet, so the bilirubin builds up in the liver and the blood instead of traveling to the bile duct.  Newborns in hospitals are routinely tested for jaundice. It's very common — about 60% of full term babies will develop jaundice, and even more of those who are born preterm. In a typical scenario, a newborn infant will be tested for bilirubin levels by pricking the baby's heel and squeezing out a small amount of blood. A baby with a bilirubin level of under 5 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) is considered normal, while anything over 5 mg/dL is considered an elevated level. Most babies with a low to moderate level of jaundice will not need treatment, and the jaundice will clear up after a week or two. Sometimes, if the level is too high, rises too quickly, or does not go down after two weeks, doctors may prescribe light therapy (a UV therapy which is harmless and enjoyed by most babies). In rare cases, your baby may need a blood transfusion to reduce severe jaundice. Most babies born in a hospital will be tested one or more times for their bilirubin levels, but certain symptoms can signal jaundice:  A yellow color to the skin and the whites of the eyes. This is the most common feature of jaundice. Sleepiness and difficulty feeding. Sometimes bilirubin levels cause an infant to be drowsy, which can make nursing or bottle feeding the baby difficult. Try undressing the baby to rouse it to eat. Jaundice is very common and most often clears up on its own. But in some rare cases, it can cause complications and require treatment.  Although jaundice is common among newborns, high levels of untreated bilirubin...

Article in English: Jealousy can cause people to think negative things that are untrue about themselves and the relationships they are in.  A person who is feeling jealous of you may take the things you say and do personally, even when your statements/actions are not directed toward him. For example, if you are out together and you are sleepy and need to go home early because you have had a long day, he may feel as though you are bored by him.Do not be defensive in response to his negativity. Instead, be open about what is going on with you. For example, say “The reason why I am yawning is not because of you. I enjoy hanging out with you. I am sleepy because I had to wake up at five in the morning to be at work early for a meeting.” Some people experience jealousy because they have difficulty understanding the complexity of the lives of others. This is because they are preoccupied with their own insecurities.  If you notice how often someone brings up how well things are going for you, and she seems resentful about it, remind her that there is a lot going on in your life that she may not necessarily be aware of.  You may be unable to change a jealous person’s perspective, but you can start sharing with her the struggles and challenges you face in life. For example, you can say, “When we were on the camping trip, I got so lost that I almost decided to turn around and go home after just one day.” Some people struggle with jealousy because they are afraid that you will leave them. This can cause them to see other people as a threat. For example, the person may talk about how great your relationships are with other people because he doesn't feel like he is as close with you, and this makes him jealous. Unfortunately, the good relationships you have make him feel threatened, even though you may not feel the same way or even compare the two relationships yourself. Social media like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and others can make everyone’s life look perfect. Typically, people post pictures and stories about their best moments,...

Не переживайте, если этот человек будет негативно вести себя рядом с вами.

Article in English: Jealousy is not love and feeling jealousy does not mean that you are in love. Some people mistake jealousy as an act of love, when it's really an act of insecurity and/or a lack of control. People who get jealous tend to be insecure and to have feelings of shame as well. If your partner is acting out due to jealousy, draw lines. Do not answer questions you are not comfortable answering. Do not cancel plans with your friends, or cut off contact with someone who matters to you.  Gently and firmly explain: "I will answer your questions, but only once. I will not give you the same answer over and over." "I will listen to how you feel, but I will not isolate myself from the people I love." "If you throw things or yell, I will leave the house and spend the night at my parents' house." "If you do not tell me how you feel, but you sulk or give me the silent treatment, I will tell you how that makes me feel and then I will leave the house until you call me." Do not assume responsibility for things you did not do. It may be easier to apologize and blame yourself when you are blamed for another's behavior. However, you know your own motivations. Don't let anyone convince you into believing that you were flirting when you weren't flirting, or that you "provoked" jealousy and subsequent bad behavior.  Listen calmly to your partner if he or she can use "I" statements, but do not subject yourself to a barrage of accusations. If your partner physically restrains you, hurts you, or breaks things, leave him or her. If you feel in any way threatened by a partner or other person who is jealous of you, get away from them if you can. Jealousy is the leading cause of spousal murders, and is a typical component of spousal battery. Get out of the house if your partner is physically aggressive, and call 911 or a domestic abuse hotline: 1-800-522-3304

Article in English: Jealousy is often abnormal when it comes in response to something abstract. For example, you may get jealous of your partner's aspirations, even before your partner achieves these goals. You may worry that your partner will abandon you or find someone better if they achieve their dreams. If you frequently get jealous over people's ambitions, or other abstract concepts, you may be experiencing abnormal jealousy. If you're abnormally jealous, you may seek out commitment soon to quell feelings of insecurity. You may feel the need to lock a friendship or relationship down to try and combat jealousy.  With romantic relationships, how soon do you push for commitment? Do you want to move fast right away? Do you find yourself pushing your romantic partners to move in or make future plans early on in the relationship? With friends, you may want to become best friends right away. You may want to hang out every day or text constantly, despite the fact you've just met this person. You may have difficulty accepting that it takes awhile to develop an intimate connection with someone. Jealousy is normal in some situations. For example, most people would feel jealous if they saw on Facebook that a friend threw a party without inviting them. However, abnormal jealousy occurs in many situations that are innocuous and may not warrant a jealous response.  You may have jealous thoughts when you're having a difficult day, as this may affect your self esteem. You may also get jealous if a friend or romantic partner is away for work or a vacation without you. You may also get jealous at social events if a friend or partner is making conversation with others. Due to this extreme jealousy, you may become hyper vigilant of others. This means you feel a need to monitor others behaviors to make sure you're not being forgotten or abandoned. For example, you may watch your partner talking to other people at a party. Instead of socializing yourself, you may trail your partner the entire time to make sure he or she is not flirting with...

Article in English: Joint pain is the most characteristic symptom of all types of arthritis. You might notice the pain after exercising or using the joints extensively, which is the case with "wear and tear" arthritis (OA), or upon waking and after periods of disuse, which is more characteristic of RA.  Arthritic pain is usually described as dull, achy and/or throbbing. The more destructive types of arthritis can also generate sharp and electric-type pain. Arthritic pain usually starts out mild, then progressively gets worse. The pain levels of OA gradually worsen, whereas some really inflammatory types (such as gout attacks) become extremely painful very suddenly. Although the term arthritis literally means joint inflammation, some types involve much more swelling than others. In general, the wear and tear of OA doesn't lead to much swelling or redness. In contrast, RA involves lots of swelling and redness because the body's immune system attacks the lining of the joint capsule (synovial membrane). Gout is also known for lots of inflammation due to the deposit of sharp uric acid crystals within joint capsules, particularly of the big toe.  PsA also involves the immune system attacking joints, which is why it's classified as an autoimmune disorder, so swelling and redness are more noticeable. RA not only causes severe inflammation in affected joints (usually of the hands and wrists), but also low-grade inflammation throughout the body. Not being able to remove your rings is a sign of swelling in the joints of the hands. Stiffness is another common early sign of virtually all types of arthritis. It's the inability to freely move joints due to pain, swelling and/or some degree of joint destruction. Along with stiffness, you may also feel or hear creaking or cracking sounds as you move joints after periods of inactivity, especially with OA.  Initially, stiffness doesn't usually involve reduced range of motion, but it's a sign that there's a problem in the joint that will likely get worse. Stiffness and other symptoms usually occur...

Article in English: Joke pregnancy tests are the best option because they give you a false positive every time. To use the test, bring it into the bathroom and urinate on it like a real test. Wait for the result, then show it to the person you’re pranking.  You can find fake pregnancy tests online or at a local joke shop. Make sure you read and follow the directions for the test you buy so that it works correctly. Some ingredients used to make sodas mimic pregnancy hormones, so they can give a false positive on a pregnancy test. Bring a soda with you into the bathroom when you go to take the test. Then, dip the test into the soda instead of urinating on it. Hide the soda before opening the bathroom door. Since you may be asked to take a second test to confirm your pregnancy, hide an extra soda in the bathroom in case you need it. Put it somewhere others are unlikely to look, like inside your makeup kit or a box of tampons. Most pregnancy tests have a separate piece of plastic for the front and back side. Use a thin piece of metal, like a pair of tweezers or a metal nail file, to pry the front off of the pregnancy test. Then, use a marker that’s close to the same color as the test results to draw in a line to create a positive result. Next, dab some water onto the test to make it look like you peed on it and put the test back together.  A light pink marker will be your best option. The results may look better if you draw on all of the lines. This also eliminates the need for you to actually pee on the test. In addition to making the test look used, wetting it also helps fade the marker so it looks more real. Most pregnancy tests only produce accurate results for a few minutes. After that point, the urine starts to evaporate from the pad, making the lines look darker. This often creates a false positive. Use this to your advantage by taking your test at least an hour in advance. Once the result looks like a positive, bring it into the bathroom and pretend to take it. This may not always work, but it’s a common cause of false...

Article in English: Juggling coursework for different classes can be tricky so it is important to stay as organized as possible. Keep track of all of your homework due dates and schedule specific time to work on assignments. You can use a day planner or a wall calendar to schedule your homework time, or both if you want extra reminders. Try color coding your calendar with colored pens to show the priority level or difficulty of your assignments. Follow your course outline or syllabus and do all of your assigned reading on the days it is assigned. This will prepare you to fully participate in class and impress your teacher. You will also be ready for any pop quizzes that might come up. If you have multiple homework assignments from different classes, shift between them when you start to lose focus. A fresh topic can reinvigorate your mind and ensure that you do not waste any valuable time. Shift between subjects as much as you need to but make sure that all of your assignments are completed by their due date. Try focusing on the more difficult subjects first so that you can devote more time to them if you need to. Late assignments are object subject to penalties that will lower your overall grade. Make sure to accurately track the due dates for all of your homework assignments on your calendar and  get your work in on time. If you are going to be absent on a day when a homework assignment is due, aim to hand it in early to avoid losing marks.

Article in English: Jumping straight into a low-calorie diet is a shock to your system. When you go cold turkey, your body has no idea what's going on — so as a protective measure it clings onto your fat stores. Instead, ease your body into the diet by cutting your calories gradually. Set a reasonable daily calorie goal that you can reduce to gradually. It might be 1,200 or 2,200 depending on your individual factors. Seek advice from your doctor, nutritionist, or dietician for guidance tailored to your needs. Your body may adjust to a lower but steady calorie intake, meaning it won't draw from your stored fat. To keep your body guessing and your metabolism up, try switching between higher and lower daily calorie intakes. This might help avoid that dreaded weight-loss plateau and improve your willpower.  In other words, if you do a low-calorie diet all the time, your body may adjust its metabolic rate so you don't lose too much fat. But if you keep it on its toes, it won't be able to regulate your fat stores as effectively. This plan should still be paired with lowering your average daily intake gradually. Ask a doctor or nutrition expert you trust for their take on this type of diet plan. In simple terms, eating spurs your metabolism — the process by which your body turns food into energy. Eating more often, then, may kick your metabolism into a higher gear more times per day (e.g., if you eat six times a day, you get six “spikes”). But, you must make sure that eating more often does not also mean eating more; it's essential that you reduce your overall average daily calories.  Look for hunger-busting snacks rich in protein, healthy fat and fiber. Try a tablespoon of peanut butter on celery, almonds and an apple, or a tablespoon of hummus with sliced veggies. Try setting a rough schedule, such as eating every two to four hours. Burning fat is all about keeping your metabolism churning. And when you've been snoozing all night, it's safe to guess that your metabolism has been snoozing too. So get up, brush your teeth, and eat...

Article in English: Just as cunning people need to be able to read others’ faces, they must be able to keep others from reading their own. Pulling a trick on someone can naturally make you feel excited or antsy. It’s important to make sure your face doesn’t betray this information. Obviously, try not to grin or giggle when you’re deceiving someone. Instead, relax. Take deep breaths. Picture yourself doing something calming that you love. Do anything you can to stay (externally) cool as a cucumber. Appropriately, the actual game of poker is a great place to practice your poker face. In poker, if you want to win, you’ll need to keep your external façade completely calm when you have winning hands. You’ll also need to appear confident when you have awful hands. Practicing both of these skills will help you hone your cunning.    and decisive. People are more likely to believe others who appear confident in their decision making. If you’re cunning, you should be ready to exploit this. Make your moves with firm confidence. Never second guess yourself. Try to view the trick you’re playing on someone as “no big deal” or as something you’ll be able to do perfectly without too much effort, even if this might not be 100% true. If you believe that you can do something, most other people will too, and you’ll be able to use this to deceive them. Basic confidence-building tips include:  Pay attention to your physical appearance - dress well and groom yourself Have friendly body language - stand up straight, smile, and look people in the eye Feed your interests - pick hobbies you’re good at and excel at them Be gracious - strive for politeness and friendliness, but never pretend to agree with someone just to appease him or her. . Lies are the cunning person’s best friend. Good lies are plausible, or at least hard to disprove.

Article in English: Just as in English and other languages, there are informal ways to say "How are you" in Spanish. These alternatives could be roughly translated as the equivalent to saying "what's happening" or "what's up" in English. They're appropriate in casual social situations or when talking to people around your own age who you know fairly well. Some alternatives are:  "¿Qué pasa?" (keh pah-sah) "¿Cómo va?" (koh-moh vah) "¿Qué tal?" (keh tahl) "¿Qué haces?" (keh ahs-ehs) Different Spanish-speaking countries also have different phrases that serve as alternatives to "¿Cómo estás?" Regional or local slang can make your Spanish seem more natural. Since they're slang, they're typically only appropriate in social settings when greeting people around your own age. Some examples are:  "¿Qué onda?" (keh ohn-dah): Mexico, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Uruguay, Argentina, Chile "¿Cómo andas?" (koh-moh ahn-dahs): Argentina, Spain "¿Qué hubo?" (keh ooh-boh): Mexico, Chile, Colombia "¿Pura vida?" (poo-rah vee-dah): Costa Rica With "¿Cómo te sientes?" you're literally asking someone how they are feeling. This question is typically more appropriate if you know someone hasn't been feeling well lately. Generally, it's not used as a direct alternative to "¿Cómo estás?" If you're not familiar with the person, you might instead ask "¿Cómo se siente?" (koh-moh say see-ehn-tay) It's the same question, but using a more formal pronoun.

Summary in Russian:

В неформальной обстановке попробуйте альтернативу вопросу ¿Cómo estás?. Поэкспериментируйте с региональным диалектом в повседневных ситуациях. Используйте ¿Cómo te sientes? (ко-мо тэ сьен-тэс), чтобы справиться о самочувствии человека.


Article in English: Just as when you say the date in Spanish, when you write the date you start with the numeral corresponding to the day, then the month, then the year. Start with "el" for "the," then separate the other parts of the date with the word "de." Just as in speech, there is an exception when you're talking about the first of the month. Use the numeral 1 with a superscripted o that looks similar to a degree symbol when writing the first: 1º. This symbolizes "the first" in Spanish. For example, you could write, "Hoy es 1º de febrero," or "Today is February 1st." With the exception of the first day of the month, the day typically is written as a numeral in Spanish, not an ordinal number word such as "second" or "third," like you would see in English. You can use numerals ("2") or spell out the number ("dos"). Follow the numeral that corresponds to the day with the word de. Then write the name of the month. Unlike in English, you don't capitalize the names of months in Spanish. For example, if you were writing about the second of April in Spanish, you would write "2 de abril." Just as in English, if you're writing the date in Spanish you don't spell out the numbers of the year, you just write it in numerals. Unlike in English, the year is not preceded by a comma. Just as in speech, include the word de between the month and the year. For example, you might write "2 de abril de 2018" for April 2, 2018. Just as in English, there is a shortened form of the date that only uses numerals. However, it's still written using the same formula as the long form, with the day first, followed by the month and the year.  For example, if you wanted to write the short form of "March 28, 2018" in Spanish, you would write "28-3-2018" or "28-03-2018." You can separate the numbers with dots, dashes, or slashes. Different regions may prefer one form over the others, but Spanish speakers will recognize the date whichever form you choose.

Article in English: Just as with someone who is circumcised, you should always wait until the penis is fully erect and ready for sexual activity before attempting to put on the condom. If you try to put a condom on a non-erect penis, it can result in the condom sliding up, down, or off the penis. Place a small drop of water-based lubricant on the inside of the condom in the reservoir tip before you unroll it. Water-based lubricant can make it easier for you or your partner to roll the condom onto the penis. It can also increase the sensations he feels during sex.  Make sure you put just a small amount of lube in the reservoir tip. Using more lube could take up too much space in the reservoir tip, and leave little to no room for semen. Use water-based lube only. An oil-based lube can damage the latex condom, and increase the risk for pregnancy and the transmission of STDs. Before you put the condom on, gently pull back the foreskin. Pull it back until the head of the penis is fully exposed. Remember this is a very sensitive area, so be extra gentle. Pulling back the foreskin will make it easier for you to get the condom on properly.  Generally the foreskin will remain securely retracted one you have rolled it down off the head of the penis. If it rolls back up again before you get the condom, just roll it down and try again.

Summary in Russian:

Дождитесь, пока пенис не станет полностью эрегированным. Нанесите капельку лубриканта. Оттяните назад крайнюю плоть.


Article in English: Just as you would for any kind of fishing, if you hope to go out fishing for sharks, you need to register with the Department of Wildlife or the Hunting and Fishing Service in your area to make it legal. In most places, there is no "shark season," but other fishing guidelines and restrictions may apply in your area. To catch sharks in the United States, you need to apply for a National Marine Fisheries Service license with the Department of Hunting and Wildlife. The regulations for hunting sharks vary widely depending on the region you’re in. In some areas, including the Bay off California, there is no “shark season,” while in Massachusetts, minimum weight requirements and seasons for blues, makos, and threshers are strictly enforced. It's critical that you get informed about the local regulations by getting information from the Department of Marine Wildlife in your area to make sure any fishing expedition you've got planned is legal.  In the US, blue sharks are the most frequently caught variety of shark, typically taken on deep-sea fishing expeditions off chartered boats. If you want to go shark fishing, this is typically the best way to do it. You'll be sure you're fishing for the right sharks and can quickly identify the legal species, with pros there to help you. Look for shark fishing tournaments in your area. In some regions, marine biologists and fishermen have teamed up to experience the thrill of the hunt and the knowledge that can come from interacting with sharks up close and then releasing them safely back into the wild. These types of fishing tournaments are a healthy and legal coming-together of science and sport. Depending on where you’re fishing, certain shark species may be more present than others, while certain species are universally outlawed for harvesting. It is universally illegal to kill any of the following species of shark:  Tiger shark Whale sharks Great whites Atlantic angel Basking Bigeye sand tiger, six- or seven gills, and threshers Bignose Caribbean reef Dusky Galapagos Great,...

Article in English: Just as you're going through changes as a teenager, boys in your grade are also experiencing changes. Ask your health teacher where to find reading information. You can also ask your parents or an older male relative you trust, such as a brother or male cousin.  You may notice some physical changes in the boys in your class. Their voices may get deeper and they may begin to grow hair on their faces and underarms. Boys also undergo sexual changes. They will start to release testosterone and begin to experience erections. Understand that they may be embarrassed by this, just like you may be initially embarrassed by your period. While puberty is a normal part of growing up, it is normal to have some insecurity about puberty. Teenage boys in your grade may be embarrassed by physical and other changes they're undergoing, so be understanding of this.  Teenage boys may experience erections without cause, or their voices may squeak when they talk. They may get embarrassed by this. Don't tease the boys in your grade about puberty, no matter how tempting it may be. After all, you wouldn't want to be teased by the changes you're going through. While you may feel your experiences couldn't be more different than the experiences of teenage boys, there is actually a lot of common ground. You can better understand teenage boys if you identify areas where you're going through similar changes.  Like you, boys are beginning to grow hair on the underarms and pubic region. Boys also experience mood swings and feelings of anger and frustration due to changing hormones. Hormones can also cause quick changes in energy levels. You may notice people respond to you differently as you grow. People see you more as an adult and may treat you differently. This happens to boys during puberty as well. Boys sometimes treat you differently around their friends. Teenage boys are often embarrassed to be interested in girls for the first time. He may act standoffish towards you because he feels insecure. He may also want to make it clear to his...

Article in English: Just because you can drink now doesn't mean you have to. Celebrate with your family or some close friends, have a good meal, and a quiet night at home with your pets. That's what Taylor Swift did for her 21st. Sometimes the pressure of having a big "blowout" can be a little much. It's not for everyone. It can be a whole lot more enjoyable and relaxing to stay in, rent a movie, and be with the people you love. Treat it like any other old birthday. If you're not going to drink, splurge in some other way. Make 21 cupcakes from an amazing recipe you found on Pinterest and eat more of them than you're willing to admit online. Make your most favorite rich meal and enjoy it with your family.  Splurge for your birthday. Instead of wasting money on drinks, buy a new dress or a new suit and get a table at a fancy restaurant you've always wanted to try. Have a romantic dinner with your partner. Have an extra piece of cake. Do 21 shots of something else. Do a mock version of the unfortunately common drink challenge. Pour yourself 21 shots of root beer, OJ, or protein shake, and play a drinking game. It'll be tougher than you think. Turning 21 is about more than turning the legal drinking age. It's about becoming an adult. Being an adult for you might mean taking on new challenges, projects, or crossing something off your bucket list. Maybe accomplishing a semi-complicaged cooking project might be a fun way to spend your 21st. Eat a cake that you baked from scratch, or try the perfectly cooked steak. Here are some helpful links to common cooking projects, that'll be easier than you think they are:  Make Pie Crust Make cupcakes Make lasagna Make gnocchi Make sushi A great way to spend your birthday is scoring tickets to a big show you've always wanted to see. Get front row seats to your favorite band, or go check out a play or a musical, if you're more interested in the stage. Pick something that you'll enjoy and head out with a few close friends for a night you'll be sure to enjoy. Milk bars, oxygen bars, oyster bars,...

Article in English: Just because you told him that you don’t like him doesn’t mean you have to ignore him or be rude. Don’t think of him as weak or broken because of your choice. He’ll move past it, so treat him like a human being. Don't just ignore him forever. Don’t go out of your way to see if he’s doing alright. If you run into him, be cordial, but don’t reach out to him outside of that. Rejection hurts, and if you’re constantly reminding him about it, he’ll constantly be hurting. This could eventually lead to self-esteem issues, anger, or even aggression—you don’t want to be at fault for that. If he decides that he can stay friends with you after having the conversation, make sure to set a clear line of appropriateness. This can be in a separate discussion if either of you need time to think about it. Having this discussion will help both of you put some closure on the previous one.  Discuss if it’s ok to comment on how one another looks. Talk about if physical contact (hugs, holding hands, etc.) is still appropriate.

Article in English: Just because you're trying to gain fat doesn't mean you should binge on junk food all day. You need to focus on high-calorie, high-fat foods that provide vitamins and nutrients. Processed sugar contains no nutritional value and can lead to diabetes, heart disease, rotten teeth, hormone issues, and other health problems.  Cut out as much sugary food as you can. Candy, cake, cookies, and any other dessert foods are packed with sugar. Cut down on or avoid soft drinks altogether. A can of soda contains more sugar than your average dessert. When you sleep, your body requires less calories. Food you eat before sleeping is more likely to be stored as fat. Take advantage of this by eating a heavy snack before bed, if combined with strength training exercises or take an afternoon nap after lunch. Fluids fill the stomach and can make you feel full prematurely. To avoid this outcome, avoid drinking anything for a half  hour before your meals. This will ensure that your stomach is empty and you'll be able to eat the entire meal. Just because you're trying to gain weight doesn't mean you can't still exercise. In fact, it's very unhealthy to stop moving altogether and become sedentary.  Lifting weights can hurt your fat gain if done improperly. Resistance training boosts your metabolism, which will burn more calories. Flood your body with calories after a workout to cancel out the burn and keep your weight gain up.  Also stretch regularly. Lack of activity will make your muscles tense up and you risk losing mobility. Make sure to stretch your legs, arms, hips, and back daily to keep your body in good working order. In addition to eating more, you can also increase your body mass with protein shakes and powder. A variety of products will provide a protein boost that will help increase your weight and muscle mass if combined with strength training exercises. Remember to use all products as directed.  Whey protein powder is a popular supplement that you can add to several types of drinks. You can blend up a smoothie using...

Article in English: Just because your students should have learned basic grammar or spelling when they were younger does not mean that those skills should be neglected now. Continue to build on and maintain skills like grammar, spelling, parts of speech, voice, tense and writing style. This will keep their skills sharp, as well as helping any students who may have fallen through the cracks. By this older stage, many people will have a reduced capacity for creativity. Creative thinking skills, however, lead people to be better problem solvers and innovators, so such skills should be fostered in any way possible. Writing is one of the best opportunities for students to bring creativity into their academics. Encourage them to take new approaches to assignments and methods of reading. During this time in their lives, children should be developing the skills necessary to prepare them for higher learning. This will ensure that they have the most opportunities possible. An absolutely necessary skill for higher education, as well as a vital life skill, is critical thinking. Encourage your students to really think about the things they are reading and writing. This will prepare them to do everything from analyze news stories to participating  fully in the political process.  Have your students ask questions about what they are reading. Who wrote this book? Why did they write it? Who did they write it for? What impact did the environment around them have on the text? There are many questions like these which can serve to illuminate information hidden within the things they read. Have your students ask questions about their own writing. Why did I choose this voice? Why do I have the opinion I've expressed? Why is this something I care about? What would I rather be writing? These kinds of questions can lead your students to learn a lot about themselves but it will also help them make more conscious decisions about the things they write. If you want your students to have a real opportunity at getting a higher education, they will need to be...

Article in English: Just like fundraising, you could organize a food drive! Sometimes people are more inclined to give away canned goods over money -- we notice it less in our pocketbooks. Start one at school or work! Make a goal and get to it. Now how long will it run for? Go big or go home, right? Contact your local newspaper or news station for coverage. Get the word out! You have such a good cause; who'd say no? Get the word out on social media and tell all your friends -- you'll need back up! Since the homeless don't vote much, they don't get a lot of attention when it comes to our representatives. Let yours know that you want initiative taken!  Right now the "Bring America Home Act" is trying to be pushed through legislation. For more information, visit the National Coalition for the Homeless' website. In addition to pre-existing efforts, write letters! The more letters your rep gets, the more he or she will have to sit up and take note. . Your current representatives not doing anything? Get involved yourself! Even being on the school board is a step in the right direction! Sometimes people won't speak for you, so you gotta speak up yourself! Start attending committee meetings, for starters. Get to know the people you need to get to know. It'll be hard to start momentum all by yourself. Other people probably feel the same as you do -- you just need to team up! Feeding the homeless is one thing, but why stop there? Once they have a roof over their heads, they have so much less to worry about -- and more money to spend on food. Don't just think about shelters -- volunteer your time elsewhere, too! You can also feed the habitat workers! Contact your local division to ask if you can sponsor lunch or, heck set up a lemonade stand. Every bit helps! Obviously this is going to take the most work -- community approval, start-up costs, possible licensing, etc. But it is possible -- it's how the programs you know got started: one person. Are there any gaps in your community that could be filled?

Article in English: Just like humans, there are times when it's best to give your cat some space. Avoid moving, petting, or playing with your cat when he is washing himself, eating, drinking, or sleeping. Doing so may scare, stress, or annoy him, which could result in an unpleasant reaction. Allowing your cat to clean or sleep in peace can help him trust and like you and forge a strong bond. Always be gentle and loving with your cat. This demonstrates to him that he can trust you and may make him more likely to approach and seek out quality time with you.  Always pet and pick him up softly, keeping in mind that he is a lot smaller than you are. Never squeeze your cat or pull his tail. Although you might be tempted to show your kitty love by following him and picking her up, this often goes against cat behavior. Allow your cat your approach you whenever he wants to help him relax and feel comfortable getting your attention.  You can teach your cat to come when you call him—for food or otherwise—with simple training methods.  Never chase your cat or use a loud voice with him. This can scare him not only in the moment, but also in the future. If your cat doesn't seem to want to come to you, try enticing him with a treat or some catnip. If you squat, lie, or kneel down to the same level as your cat, you may appear less threatening. This may make him feel more relaxed in your presence and more likely to form a strong relationship with you.  You may find that lying down on the floor helps draw him to you. Sitting on the sofa or in a chair may also be another way to get your cat to comfortably approach you.  Since cats like to watch other small animals, consider lying or sitting near a window, which can provide him entertainment and give you the option of petting him while he perches. Cats are very alert and observant, which requires them to frequently hold up their heads. Pet and stroke your cat as he likes to relax her and help him to like you more.  You can massage your cat's neck or any other area that he might like such as his...

Article in English: Just like in elementary school, there are rules and guidelines that you have to follow. Some of these may be the same, such as raising your hand in class. Some may be different, such as dealing with hall passes. Ask questions. Teachers and staff want to be sure you know what to do and if you understand their instructions or not. Don't be afraid to ask questions! Teachers are there to help you! If you're not sure, just ask. If your school has a student handbook, look it over. While it may not cover everything, it will make clear rules, policies, and expectations. Act mature. While staff will not demand perfection, your behavior will likely be held to a higher standard than in elementary school. Naturally, people talk about other people's problems, behavior, and lives. While being informed of the social goings-on at school is healthy, unfortunately sometimes there's going to be lots of gossip and some really malicious rumors floating around.   Try to ignore rumors, even when they’re about you, and if anyone talks or asks you about a rumor, tell them to ignore it and not spread it around. Never start rumors; they only break friendships, create enemies, hurt feelings, and make things worse for everyone. If you have an issue with someone, talk to them directly. Be kind. If someone is talking nastily about someone, feel free to react with kindness. For instance, if there is gossip about a breakup between two people, you can react by saying, "That would be too bad if they broke up. But I don't see how that's any of my business." For rumors of a person's sexual orientation, know that a lot of people are LGBT+ and there is nothing wrong with it. If people are, they are.  Help stop rumors by standing up for people and not participating by spreading the rumor. Protect other people's privacy and mistakes. You wouldn't want someone spreading your personal secrets around, would you? Drama is unnecessary. Some people think that a life has to be filled with melodrama to be important and appreciated by others. It does not....

Article in English: Just like method 1, you must figure out if your four-channel amplifier can be bridged. Taking all the same precautions, be sure to consult the amplifier manual or research your amp model online to be sure it can be bridged. On your four-channel amp, you should see 8 terminals: channels 1 through 4 each have a positive (+) and negative (-) terminal.  Each terminal will be labeled as follows:  Channel 1  "A" (positive) "B" (negative)   Channel 2  "C" (positive) "D" (negative)   Channel 3  "E" (positive) "F" (negative)   Channel 4  "G" (positive) "H" (negative) From the wires coming out of the speaker, connect the positive speaker lead to terminal A (the positive for channel 1) and connect the negative speaker lead to terminal D (the negative for channel 2). Again, just like bridging a two-channel amplifier, connect these speaker wires to the amplifier by unscrewing the screw in that whichever terminal you are connecting the wire to, place the wire in between the top and bottom portions of the terminal, and then screw the screw down tightly to secure the wire. Once the wires are secured, the first speaker is connected to the amplifier. Following the previous method, again take the wires coming from the second speaker, but this time, connect the positive speaker lead to terminal E (the positive for channel 3) and connect the negative speaker lead to terminal H (the negative for channel 4).

Article in English: Just like most other laboratory tests, the normal ranges might be different depending on which lab your doctor uses. Sit down with your doctor when your results become available so you can talk through them together. In general, expect normal ranges to be:  Less than 15 mm/hr (millimeters per hour) for men under 50. Less than 20 mm/hr for men over 50. Less than 20 mm/hr for women under 50. Less than 30 mm/hr for women over 50. 0-2 mm/hr for newborns. 3-13 mm/hr for newborns to puberty. There are a number of conditions that could cause your ESR rate to be above normal, including pregnancy, anemia, thyroid or kidney disease, or cancers such as lymphoma or multiple myeloma. A very high ESR level might indicate lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, or a severe infection located somewhere in your body.  A very high level might also be a sign of rare autoimmune disorders like allergic vasculitis, giant cell arteritis, hyperfibrinogenemia, macroglobulinemia, necrotizing vasculitis, or polymyalgia rheumatica. An infection associated with a very high ESR level might be located in your bones, heart, on your skin, or throughout your body. It could also be tuberculosis or rheumatic fever. Since an elevated or even high ESR rate could mean so many different things, your doctor will almost certainly perform other tests to understand what’s going on in your body. While you wait for your doctor to determine which tests you need, breathe and try not to panic. Discuss your fears with your doctor, family, and friends so you can feel supported through this process. An ESR test can’t provide a diagnosis on its own. Unfortunately, rheumatoid arthritis can’t be completely cured. However, it is possible to manage the symptoms and put them into remission. Your doctor will likely prescribe a combination of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) like ibuprofen, and steroids. Physical or occupational therapy can help you learn exercises to keep your joints moving and flexible. They can also...

Article in English: Just like the boiling water method, this uses heat to expand the air inside the ping pong ball. The fast-moving air also has a lower pressure. This makes it easier for the air inside the ping pong ball to push outward. Hold the ping pong ball in your bare hand. Ping pong balls are flammable, but the risk of burning is low as long as it's not too hot to hold. Blow dryer temperatures vary, but this will probably work fine at a distance of 6–8 inches (15–20cm).  Alternatively, just point the hairdryer straight up and levitate the ball in the stream of air. The ball is very unlikely to burn if it is held in air. It might burn if you leave it on a surface, and hold the dryer too close. It may help to hold the ball so the dent is opposite the hair dryer. It may be wise to turn the dryer off and let the ball cool periodically, to help prevent deformities. The repaired ball will be a little "off" in size and shape compared to a new ball. To avoid sagging as the ball cools, wrap it in a tissue and hang it from a nail for a few minutes. Since the hot air was not as hot as boiling water, this may not be necessary.

Article in English: Just like with young children, older children have particular interests and needs as readers of poetry. Think about what age range you want to write for. Find poems and collections for that age group and read extensively. Lewis Carroll's poems are excellent for older child readers. Poems like "Jabberwocky" play with language, use made-up words, and employ puns and other wordplay. For example, the poem begins "'Twas brillig, and the slithy Toves / Did gyre and gimble in the wabe." Even though they're made-up words, their grammatical position helps readers imagine what they might mean (and fosters literacy skills in children). Read some of Carroll's poetry for inspiration on the many ways to use language in your poem. The brainstorming techniques in Method 1 will also work for poems geared toward a slightly older audience. The experiences or things you write about may be different depending on the age of the children you're writing for -- for example, older children won't respond to a poem about the first day of school the same way as young children -- but the brainstorming methods will still help you discover things to write about. The basic process for writing poems for older children is the same as writing for young children. However, you can get more elaborate and complicated with poetry for older children, as they are better equipped to handle complex and abstract ideas.  Older children may enjoy short but vivid poems such as haiku, a three-line poem of Japanese origin. The first and final lines have five syllables each, while the second line has seven. Often they describe a concrete object or image, such as this one about a cat: "Tired cat sleeps all night. / He needs lots of rest for a / Long day of napping." The very short format requires you to consider your word choices very carefully but can create a lot of impact.  Concrete poems may also be enjoyable for older readers. These poems form a shape on the page that has something to do with the subject of the poem; for example, a poem about nighttime...

Article in English: Just like your hair, wet skin absorbs less chlorine than dry. When you wet your hair in the shower before you swim, make sure that the water hits your skin—and swimsuit—as well. This can offer some measure of protection against chlorine on your skin. It can also keep the color of your swimsuit fresher for a longer period of time. Unlike your hair, a protective layer won’t keep chlorine off of your skin. This includes even the heartiest barriers such as petroleum jelly. Protective skin barriers can also react with the water’s chemistry by producing more molecules that can irritate skin and hair. Although you can’t protect your skin against chlorine as well as your hair, you can minimize any potential dryness and irritation. Taking a shower as soon as you get out of the pool can get the chlorine off of your skin. Consider getting a shower gel or wash with vitamin C. This can help further neutralize the chlorine on your skin and get it to wash away. Since chlorine strips your skin of its natural oils, preventing further dryness is the best way to protect your skin. Applying a moisturizer after every swim can add oil back to your skin and help keep it moisturized. Moisturizer can also minimize your risk for irritated skin or rashes.  Use a moisturizer that is high in antioxidants such as vitamins C and E. These are not only very high in moisture, but can further neutralize any lingering chlorine on your skin. Select a moisturizer that is a heavy cream instead of a lotion. Thicker products are generally more moisturizing than thinner ones.

Article in English: Just pop the filter out or unclip it (depending on the make and model of your air conditioner) and use the tube extension on your vacuum cleaner to suck all the grit and dust out of the filter.  Replace the filter when you’ve finished cleaning it.  If you’ve taken good care of your air conditioner’s filter, you might not see a visible change in the filter when cleaning it.  Rest assured, it is getting clean. On the other hand, you might not be able to get all the dust and grit out of the filter.  Just use the vacuum to suck up as much as you can.  This method is best for giving your filter its regular cleaning. If, after you’ve vacuumed your filter, it still has a good deal of particulate attached, try washing it.  To get started, remove your air conditioner filter.  Mix one part vinegar and one part water.  For instance, you might mix five cups of water and five cups of vinegar.  Pour the mixture in a tub or a wide sink that can accommodate your filter.  Submerge your filter in the mixture for at least one hour.  If it is exceptionally grimy, leave it in for two hours or more. Drain the water and vinegar solution and dry the filter on a rack.  Replace it when dry. Instead of water and vinegar, you could mix a small amount of detergent or liquid dish soap into a volume of water that will cover your filter when it is submerged. If the weather is nice and your filter is too large to fit in your sink, take your filter outside and lean it against a wall.  Spray your hose on the filter.  Do not use a pressurized hose nozzle or you might risk tearing or damaging the flimsy filter.  You could also hose your filter down in your shower.  Just prop the filter up in your shower and, using your shower’s detachable showerhead, spray the filter’s entire surface, front and back, in a zig-zag motion. After hosing your filter down, allow it to dry, then replace it. For added effect, you could sprinkle a few spoonfuls of baking soda over your filter before spraying it down.

Article in English: Just pour 2 cups of powdered milk and 1 can (14 oz.) of condensed milk into a bowl. This recipe should make about 80 candies. The mixture may be a little thick and hard to mix together, so have patience and a thick and sturdy spoon. Add 1 tablespoon of margarine to the mixture; alternately, you can use real butter. This will help add an extra creamy flavor to the treat. Mix it in with the other ingredients. Choose the shape you'd like for your pastillas; they can be circular, or they can be more cylindrical, like Tootsie Rolls. Just use your hands to give them their desired shape; you can wear gloves if you want to. Place the shaped candies on a plate. Pour half a cup of sugar on a plate. Make sure that all part are covered. You can cut the cellophane in advance to get the desired shape. Then place the pastillas in the cellophane and wrap the ends of it. Put the candies on a party plate and enjoy. You can have them for dessert or serve them as a snack whenever you like.

Article in English: Just remember that as a human, she actually has to be using surfaces! The angle of her body needs to be believable. If she's sitting, what is she sitting on? What is she looking at? Try to always maintain a curve in her torso, through to her waist. Don't forget her facial lines and joints. Her large eyes should match up with her small nose and smile. And her hands and fingers need to be delicately proportioned, too. You may need a template, as Ariel in her human form is much less iconic than when she's in her fins. The dress is fairly basic -- full, straight angles, and complemented by an absolutely huge bow. Have you mastered her hair flap yet? The great thing about it is that it doesn't have to look believable at all (she's too perfect to be human). It just has to look adequately Ariel-esque. This is the chance you get to put the delicate lines exactly where you want them. The finer the tool, the more precise you can get. It'll be a lot easier to do this if you've refined the sketch. Sometimes too many lines gets a bit confusing. Outline whatever lines need to be present in your final draft. Have you got the wrinkles in her fabric outlined? The lines in her hair? Eyelashes? Don't forget those eyelashes! Be diligent; depending on your medium of color, pencil marks (or even eraser marks) will sometimes be visible. The bodice of her dress should be dark blue, her skirt and bow medium blue, and her sleeves light blue. Her eyes are also blue and her hair is that classic fire engine red.

Article in English: Just say, "You're beautiful." You don't need anything more complicated. Look directly into the person's eyes, and earnestly tell them what you think. Say it with a smile. Try qualifying your words with a superlative. Say, "You are absolutely beautiful," or "You are so beautiful." There's nothing wrong with a simple, "You're beautiful," but you can also make your statement more poetic or romantic by choosing your words more carefully. Be aware that some people might prefer a simple and straightforward compliment, whereas others with a more lyrical bent might swoon over grand words.   Use a synonym for beautiful: gorgeous, stunning, breathtaking, lovely, radiant, or exquisite. Make sure that you understand the subtle connotations of the word that you use. Instead of simply stating that this person is beautiful, try telling them how their beauty makes you feel. Say, "You are so beautiful that I can't take my eyes off of you," or "My heart beats faster when you look my way." Some people are attuned to vocal patterns and body language to the point that they can tell when someone is saying something "just to say it." The compliment need not turn into an over-dramatic production – but try to keep it authentic. One way to tailor your statement to this particular person is to point out something unique that makes them beautiful. This could be anything: eyes, hair, smile, skin. Go deeper than the skin, and try to compliment his/her personality. Beauty means much more than looks.  Say, "You have the most beautiful smile. It always brightens my day." Try saying, "Your eyes are absolutely stunning. I get lost in them." Tell him/her, "You have such beautiful hair!" or "Your skin is flawless." If this person gets a lot of compliments for his or her beauty, try pointing out the features that don't get complimented as often. The person may spend a lot of time on their hair or makeup. However, they might be be especially flattered if you find something to say about their ears, their hands, their nose – or their personality. "...

Article in English: Just to the right of the Y-axis, find the line with the dew point measurement in degrees Fahrenheit or Celsius. If you’re having trouble seeing the lines on the chart, use a ruler to align the hash marks with the lines on chart. Since the lines for dew point remain constant and flat throughout the chart, the dew point does not change according to the dry bulb temperature. Next to or along the same vertical line as the dew point measurements, there will be markings denoting the various vapor pressures in inches of mercury or millibars. Again, if you’re having trouble following the lines on the chart, use a ruler horizontally to align the hash marks of the vapor pressures with the lines on the chart. Like dew point, vapor pressure remains constant even if the dry bulb temperature changes. The specific volume of the air tells you the amount of air that this chart was meant to measure, normally within a range of a 2-3 m3/kg or ft3/lb. As the relative humidity increases at a certain temperature, the specific volume of the air also increases. This measurement is helpful when using the chart to calculate the rate of cooling for a fan or coil. Around the extremes of the chart and just outside of the saturation curve, locate the diagonal scales which represent enthalpy in BTU per pound of dry air. Use a ruler to extend these measurements into the chart. As temperature and absolute humidity increase, the enthalpy also increases.

Article in English: K-Stew doesn't wear a ton of makeup, but she does give her eyes a bold look. You'll need to wear some black and gray eye shadow to create a smoky-eyed effect. Her eyes are very bold.  Use a thick black eyeliner and draw a thin line around your upper eyelid, and a small thin line around the lower. Curl your eyelashes mostly at the very edge of the eye and less on the beginning. However, note that sometimes, Kristen Stewart gets sick of wearing makeup and just goes for a bit of eye shadow and mascara. You don't have to overdo it. Other times, Kristen Stewart wears white eyeliner and silver eyeshadow or peach eyeshadow and silver eyeliner. Also make sure to do your eyebrows a little thinner and darker Kristen has very thin and dark eyebrows. Go for a matte light brown color on the eyes and a nude color in the crease that's mostly what she wears on her eyes and Nude lips. Kristen Stewart almost always wears subtle lipstick and does not wear eye liner or draw too much attention to her naturally cute lips. Her lipstick is most often slightly pink or shimmery with an orange tint.  Use a naturally dark pinkish color on your lips, but don't use very dark colors. Apply lipstick lighter on the sides and darker on the middle. Sometimes, though, she does like to bring out the brighter pink lipstick for special occasions. Her hair is a dark brown with a bit of a chestnut tint. If you're committed to looking like her, you can even dye your hair to match hers. Her hair is long, thick, and layered, and she cultivates the perfect "messy but flawless" look. That means that not every strand has to be in place, but you have to look like you put an effort into your hair.  Kristen has layered hair, and her bangs reach below her ears and she wears them to the side. This gives her hair a more unique look. She tends to wear her hair a bit wavy though sometimes she wears it straight. On occasion, though, she does curl her hair. Her hair is only about to her ribcage not too long. Her long hair is one of her best features. She loves...

Article in English: Karma, or kamma, means action, and a large part of Buddhist philosophy is the importance placed on the consequences of your actions. The idea is that good actions are motivated by generosity and compassion. These actions bring about well-being in yourself and others, and they create happy results as a consequence.  To incorporate more good actions into your life, you can help people who need a hand, volunteer your time and skills to people who need you, teach others things you have learned, and be kind to people and animals. Buddhists believe that life is a cycle of life, death, reincarnation, and rebirth. Your actions have consequences in this life, but they can also impact other lives as well. Unlike good actions, unwholesome actions are motivated by greed and hatred, and they bring about painful results. Particularly, bad deeds will prevent you from breaking the cycle of life, death, and rebirth, meaning your suffering will continue if you inflict suffering on others. Unwholesome actions include things like being selfish, greedy, and refusing to help other people. Dharma is another very important notion in Buddhist teachings, because it describes the true reality of your life and the world. However, dharma is not static and unchanging, and you can change reality by changing your perception, by making different choices, and by choosing right actions.  The term dharma also describes the path and teachings of Buddhism in general, so it can be thought of as the way you live your life.  To practice dharma in your everyday life, try being thankful for the things you have, grateful for your life, and by enjoying life. You can show thanks through prayer, by making offerings, and by working toward enlightenment.

Важность кармы и добрых дел. Помните о кармических последствиях плохих поступков. Узнайте о дхарме.


Article in English: Keep a journal handy and jot down every time you crack your knuckles, clear your throat, or light up a cigarette, for example. Note the day, the hour, and the situation in which you indulged.  Pay attention to any triggers you may have noticed. For example, perhaps you notice that you tend to smoke cigarettes when you're with a certain friend and after you've had several drinks. You've just identified your trigger. If you're serious about conquering your triggers, talk with your friend. Tell him something like: "Hey, I'm really trying to kick this habit. Next time I try to bum a cigarette from you, will you remind me of this conversation?" Who knows — the friend might even refrain from smoking in front of you entirely! Some people have the habit of eating when they're bored. They like food, and they don't like boredom, so they use food as a way of relieving boredom. The trigger in this habit, easily enough, is boredom. Keep your mind racing and your hands busy, and you won't eat until you feel hungry. Many longtime smokers, for example, kick their habit by substituting baby carrots for cigarettes whenever the urge hits. And for good reason: Scientists have discovered that people who eat more produce have fewer cigarettes over the course of a day and end up having an easier time quitting.  If you bite your nails, try biting on some chewing gum instead.  If you crack your knuckles, try keeping your hands occupied with a squishy ball or practice doodling instead. Get creative with your substitutions! You never know what will or won't work until you try it. The following technique is little like Pavlov's dog experiment in that it involves associating a habit with a negative emotion or physical stimulus. Try wearing a rubber band over your wrist. Whenever you catch yourself engaging in your bad habit, snap the rubber band on your wrist enough to create mild discomfort. You should begin to associate the bad habit with minor discomfort and have a new physiological reason to stop! Bad habits give us a reward. We may...

Article in English: Keep a log of how long it takes to get ready in the morning, eat, do laundry, go grocery shopping, respond to emails, do homework, and complete other routine tasks. Track these times for about a week in a notebook, spreadsheet, or notepad app.  Tracking your routine over the course of a week will help you accurately estimate how much time you should budget for specific tasks. Additionally, you might find ways that you can become more productive. For example, you might have spent 10 hours playing a video game and should have spent more time studying. Play around with different written and digital methods when you begin making your first schedule. If you want to start with a blank slate, try using a notebook or a notepad app. If you want a ready-made grid with dates and time slots, go with a planner or calendar app.  Choose a method that suits your personal preferences. If you hate dealing with paper, use an app. If writing by hand helps you stay on track, go with a pencil and pad. You’ll get a sense of your likes and dislikes as you use your schedule. When you find the right method, stick with it. Keep all of your tasks organized in 1 place, be it a notebook, planner, or app. If the dates and days of the week aren’t automatically included, fill them in at the top of your schedule's pages. Dedicate an entire page for 1 day so you can focus on current tasks and jot down notes when necessary.  Including the day of the week helps you keep track of activities that happen on specific days, such as music classes on Mondays and Wednesdays. If you’re using a blank notebook, you could use the page on the left for a chronological schedule, and write daily priorities and other notes on the right page. Classes, regular meetings, and other fixed tasks are your schedule’s framework. Begin by filling in fixed blocks of time, such as “8:30 a.m. - Intro to Psychology” or “4:00 p.m. - Yoga class.”  If you’re using a blank notebook or spreadsheet, it’s helpful to fill in time slots in half hour intervals on the left side of the...

Article in English: Keep an eye out for a metal box, usually flush with the wall. The box will have a metal door to keep the breakers or fuses protected. Check your garage for the circuit breaker or fuse box. It might also be in a storage room, the basement, or a hallway.  If you can't find your box in one of these areas, look again or see if you can spot where the power connects to your house from outside. Check for your box in the surrounding areas. If you live in an apartment, check in a cupboard or hallway. Depending on how old your house is, your circuit breaker or fuse box could be outside. Check next to the meter box for your house.  If you have trouble finding your circuit breaker or fuse box, ask a neighbor where theirs is. If you live in a neighborhood with houses built in the same era, the boxes may be in similar locations. Call an electrician if you can't find your circuit breaker or fuse box. Some boxes can be hard to find depending on additions or remodeling done to the house. Once you've found your box, open the door. If you see rows of switches, you have a circuit breaker box. Fuses are round and screw into sockets in the fuse box, much like a light bulb. Older homes tend to have fuse boxes. If you have a particularly large house, you may even have multiple fuse or breaker boxes.

Article in English: Keep gum handy to pop a piece in your mouth after you've smoked a cigarette to give yourself minty breath. Along with other methods, chewing gum is the easiest and best way to mask the smell of cigarettes. You might even consider chewing some gum while you smoke and then pop in another piece when you're finished. If you get a chance, brush your teeth before anyone gets the chance to smell you. The smell of breath spray usually wears out quickly, but it's another efficient method, as well as mouthwash. The hand in which you hold your cigarette will have the most lingering smell. Washing them thoroughly is the most practical way of getting the smoke off your hands. Use a strongly-scented liquid soap to get the most effective cleaning. Washing your face with soap and water is also important. Scrub your face quickly as you wash your hands, particularly around your chin and mouth. If you have facial hair, pay particular attention to getting deep in your beard and scrubbing. An alcohol swab, or a big spray of deodorant will do the job, effectively but might also be a conspicuous masking smell. If you're trying to keep people unsuspecting, coming in reeking of cologne might do more harm than good. Instead, just dab a bit of deodorant near your neck. This way people will just think you put on a little bit too much of it, and not that you're trying to cover something. If you have long hair, put it back in a ponytail before smoking and let it down when you're finished. Walk around a bit before you have to be around people, or drive with the windows down to get the smell out naturally. If you have a combing cream, you might consider using it, or other hair products that you usually use. To make your clothes smell like clothes, use fabric sheets, which are made to absorb smells like smoke. Febreeze has a light natural smell that serves a similar function, working to remove the smell rather than merely mask it like a cologne, aftershave, or perfume.  Never keep half-smoked cigarettes or cigarette butts in your pocket....

Article in English: Keep in mind that being able to read facial expressions does not automatically reveal what caused the emotion, only that the emotion may be occurring.  Don’t assume and ask questions based on your assumption. You could ask, “Would you like to talk more about that?” if you suspect that someone is concealing their emotions. Asking “Are you angry?” or “Are you sad?” to someone you don’t know very well or someone you have a professional relationship with may be too intrusive, and could upset or aggravate the person. You should be sure that someone feels very comfortable with you before asking direct questions about their emotions. If you do know someone well, it may be fun and helpful to ask directly about their feelings if you suspect a certain emotion. It could be a kind of game. You should communicate with them first that you’re learning about reading facial expressions and it would be helpful for you to practice with them sometimes. Being able to read facial expressions doesn’t give you authority over someone’s feelings, and you should not assume you know exactly how they are feeling without some more communication.  For instance, you would not want to give someone bad news, like that they did not get a promotion that they were hoping for, and then ask directly, “Are you angry?” because you saw an angry microexpression. Saying, “I’m open to talking more about this anytime you’d like to” would be a much better response if you suspect that they are angry. Give people time to express their feelings when they are ready to. People have many different ways of communicating. Just because you believe someone is feeling a certain way, does not mean they are necessarily ready to discuss it with you. If someones’s microexpression contradicts what they are saying, it is possible that they are lying. People do tend to get emotional when lying for a variety of reasons: fear of getting caught, shame, or even enjoyment in lying about something they want to get away with.  Unless you are a professional trained in being able...

Article in English: Keep in mind that peer pressure isn’t always a bad thing. The desire to make friends and fit in with your peers is completely normal. However, when your friends try to convince you to do something that you know isn’t right, then it's time to stick to your morals and simply tell your friends no. It can be hard sometimes, but the consequences could far outweigh your friends being a little upset with you.  Always consider the possible consequences before you do anything. For instance, you might ask yourself, “what if the police arrived at the house party and catch me drinking?” or “what would happen if I have sex and get an STD or become pregnant?” If the cons outweigh the pros, then you should let your friends know that you’re not interested. Your friends may say things to try to convince you to participate even after you’ve said no. They may say “You’re a chicken” or call you names. At that point, it’s probably best to leave and go home. Many teenagers fall prey to peer pressure because of struggles with self-esteem. Many teens temporarily succumb to peer pressure in an effort to feel accepted by friends. After all, who wants to feel left out? However, it’s important for you to be the leader rather than the follower. When you find yourself questioning who you are and what you stand for, remind yourself of all of your great attributes. These attributes are both internal and external. So yes, be sure to include your amazing talents and accomplishments but also consider your other assets as well. This could include your unique personality traits, the way that you always demonstrate kindness, your creativity, your ability to listen well, or anything else that demonstrates how amazing you are. If you find yourself in a situation where your friends are pressuring you to do something that you don’t want to do, it’s okay to tell them that you can’t participate because of your parents. Avoid lashing out or sounding mad at your parents, though. Always talk calmly and reasonably, and have a mature attitude.  You...

Article in English: Keep in mind that sugar can scratch plastic or weak glass. A high-powered blender is the fastest and most effective option, but any blender or spice grinder can do the job.  Spice grinder or coffee grinders — which are essentially the same tool — pick up flavors from the ingredients they grind. Clean it thoroughly before using it for sugar. Many food processors will not work, possibly due to their large size. You can try it with your machine, but you may end up with superfine sugar, or an uneven mix of superfine and powder.

Article in English: Keep in mind that your puppy wasn't born automatically knowing the rules of living in a human world. When your boxer puppy gets overexcited or misbehaves, it isn't because he is a fundamentally bad dog, but because he doesn't know any better. It's your job to teach him new behaviors that appropriate for coexisting and living with other animals and humans as well. Doing so will help you understand your new Boxer puppy while training him. Boxer dogs are a delight but they're also exuberant clowns that have a lot of energy and need plenty of stimulation, including lots of playtime and walks. This can make an unruly Boxer a bit of a pain to be around as he may pounce on you, almost cat-like, to get your attention, which for a 60 to 70-pound dog can be quite painful. Also, the poorly trained Boxer may insist you play when he wants to, which again can be a nuisance if you want to quietly sit and watch TV.  Boxers by nature are loyal to humans, they generally get along with other pets in the household, and they tend to like children, usually playing gently when appropriate. Build on and reward these positive traits when training your puppy. Also bear in mind that Boxers have a reputation for taking up to three years to mature mentally, and can remain in a puppyish state until then, which for a big dog can be problematic if he wants to jump, pounce, paw, and dig at you. Luckily, good training can help settle your dog down.  It's important to note as well that although Boxer dogs as a breed may share some general characteristics, just as people have different personalities, so too do Boxer dogs. Though the breed tends to be energetic and hyper, it's also possible that your puppy may be shy or more relaxed. You need to understand what they want and need in order to train them. Boxers are extremely intelligent but sometimes hide it well behind their boisterous facade. They like people and are eager to please them, making Boxers an ideal breed for reward-based training, which relies on rewarding good behavior, while...
