Article in English: After you wash the potatoes, use a paper towel to cover them in non-fat cooking spray and place them on a baking tray. It should take 45-60 minutes to bake the potatoes. You can test them by poking them with a fork. Wait at least 10 minutes for them to cool down. Use a knife to cut one long slice through each potato to separate it in two.  Leave just a quarter inch of potato flesh on the potato to make the skins a bit more sturdy. Place it in a microwave-safe covered bowl and melt it for 30-45 seconds until it has a liquid consistency. Make sure to cover the bowl or the cheese will splatter. This will make the potatoes more crispy and will keep them from burning. Add salt and pepper to the skins, to taste. Make sure they're evenly spaced and are not touching. Watch them closely so they don't burn. Halfway through the cooking process, you can flip them over so both sides of the skins are evenly crisped.  Scoop the salad into the potato skins with a spoon.  Keep them there until the tuna is warmed and the provolone cheese is melted and bubbling. Keep an eye on the skins to make sure that the cheese doesn't burn. Wait 2-3 minutes for the skins to cool off and enjoy them as a snack or even as a main course.

You can test them by poking them with a fork. Wait at least 10 minutes for them to cool down. Use a sturdy knife to do this. Use a big spoon to scrape out the insides of each potato wedge, leaving only a thin layer of potato over the skin. Place 1 tsp. chili powder, ½ tsp. salt, 1 tsp. olive oil, and ½ tsp Tabasco sauce in a small bowl. Stir the mixture until all of the ingredients are combined.  Put them on the sheet in a single layer, so that they aren't touching.  Bake the skins and the mixture until the potatoes and mixture are crisp and brown. Check in on the potatoes to make sure the cheese hasn't burned. It should take about 15 minutes for the skins to finish baking. Let the skins cool for at least five minutes. This will add a fresh and crunchy kick to the baked potato skins. Serve the skins with 1 tsp. of low-fat sour cream each.

Article in English: After you're done, rinse off your face. You can just use water, since you've already cleansed your face, but you need to remove any blood traces. You can also use a gentle cleanser if you prefer. It can help to use a hydration product after you're done. For instance, a sheet mask can help you hydrate and heal. Another option is applying an anti-aging or anti-wrinkle serum after you're done. These serums will penetrate more deeply because of the micro holes. Wash your roller off using dish soap and hot water. Dish soap is better than other soaps at removing the tiny particles of blood and skin on your roller. Put the soap and water in a clean container, and shake the roller around in the water. Shake off excess water. Put the roller in 70% isopropyl alcohol. Let it soak for 10 minutes before shaking off the alcohol. Give it a chance to air dry before putting it away.

Article in English: After you've cooled the celery, dump the bowl of cold water into a colander to drain the chopped celery. Shake the colander well to remove all of the excess moisture, and then blot the celery with a clean towel or paper towel to dry it thoroughly. Be sure to dry the celery carefully. If there is excess moisture on the pieces, it can ruin the celery when you freeze it. When the celery is properly drained and dried, divide it into ½ pound (227 g) portions. Transfer it to freezer-proof containers, such as plastic containers or plastic freezer bags, so it's ready to freeze.  If you're using a plastic container, make sure to leave room inside for the celery to expand. If you're using a freezer bag, make sure to press all of the air out before sealing it. Once you have the celery in the freezer containers, add a label with the contents and date so it's easy to find and use by the right time. Place the celery in your freezer for use at a later date. Use your frozen celery within 8 to 12 months.

Article in English: After you've told him your news, you should avoid being awkward about it. After your conversation, it's likely that you'll still see each other, so don't avoid him, blush, or try to run away if you see him. Just keep hanging out with your group of friends, and be nice when you see him. Don't make things more awkward by telling everyone what happened. If you're in the same group of friends, then everyone around you will be making things awkward too. Though you can eventually resume your friendship, you should take it easy for a little while. Remember that time you liked a guy who didn't like you back? Well, did you love hanging out with him after you found out the truth? Probably not. He may be hurting just by being around you, so try to cool it on the solo-friendship front.  You can still be nice if you see him in groups, but don't invite him out to movies, coffee dates, or whatever it is you used to do all the time every chance you get. Don't ignore him completely. You can invite him somewhere once in a while so he doesn't feel like you're avoiding him. But wait for him to initiate the friendship move. It may take time for you to go back to being friends with the guy after he revealed his feelings. But in many cases, this is completely doable, as long as there isn't too much water under the bridge. Give it a few weeks, or even a few months, and resume hanging out just like you used to. Who knows -- maybe you'll even be able to laugh about the situation one day, or find out that you're developing a crush on the guy two years down the road. Unfortunately, there are some cases where it's just not possible for you to return to your former friendship. The guy may feel too hurt or embarrassed, and being around you may only make him feel worse. If this is the case, then accept it and move on.

Article in English: After your doctor performs a patch test, you should know what triggers are causing or intensifying your eczema. Do the best that you can to prevent any exposure to these triggers to prevent eczema in the future. Switch to a different type of household cleaner, ask someone else to handle the food that is causing your eczema, or wear gloves to create a barrier between your hands and the substance. Eczema of the hands may also be caused by dyes and perfumes in soaps and moisturizers. Steer clear of any soaps and moisturizers that include artificial fragrances or colors. Look for products meant for sensitive skin or all natural products. If you know that a certain soap or moisturizer causes your eczema to flare up, do not use it.  Consider using plain petroleum jelly in lieu of a moisturizer; it is less likely to cause a reaction and may even be more effective at moisturizing.  Don’t wash your hands too frequently. While it is important to remove irritants from your hands if you are exposed, frequent hand washing may cause your eczema to get worse. Avoid washing your hands except when they are soiled. Hands that are often wet or damp are at increased risk for hand eczema. If you spend a lot of time washing dishes by hand or doing other things that keep your hands wet, try to cut back on these activities or reduce hand wetness any way that you can. For example, you could use a dishwasher to wash dishes instead of hand washing them or at least wear gloves to keep your hands dry while you are washing dishes.  Dry your hands immediately after washing them or getting them wet. Make sure that they are completely dry. Take shorter showers to reduce the amount of time that your hands are wet. A good moisturizer is essential to preventing eczema flare-ups. Make sure that you use a moisturizer that does not irritate your skin. Ointments are usually the best options for hand eczema, they moisturize better and cause less stinging and burning when applied to irritated skin. Keep a small bottle of moisturizer with you at all...

Article in English: After your firework show, comb the area for any pieces that may have scattered in the explosion. Watch the fireworks as they fall to the ground, and mark their locations so that you don't miss anything. If you leave a piece of burning material on the ground, you might start a fire! Furthermore, fireworks often contain metals and other materials that can pollute an ecosystem and contaminate the water table. Do your part to minimize your impact. Use trash bags, Ziploc, or plastic wrap so that the wet explosives don't dry out. Consider double-wrapping the bags. It's okay to put multiple fireworks in the same bag, as long as it is sealed. Fireworks cannot be recycled or composted. If possible, bring the fireworks to your local solid waste center. Make sure to tell the workers at the waste center that you are disposing of fireworks – and whether they are live, spent, or duds. If you don't feel comfortable placing fireworks in the garbage, contact your local fire department. Some police and fire authorities will take fireworks and ensure proper disposal. This applies especially to live fireworks.

Article in English: After your first date, continue with your other activities, and make it clear that you have a life beyond dating (because you do!). The idea is to overcome any feeling that you "need" to call them, or you "need" to see them again, or you "need" this to work out.  Don't plan another date too quickly. Your partner (and you) need time to assess your feelings about the date, and whether you want to get together again. Within a week of your first date  – but not right away – call or text them to ask them how they’d feel about going on another date. Never call, e-mail or text message multiple times a day. If you do reach out, wait for them reply. Saying something like "I really like you; you're a great person" can mean a lot to your date. Saying the other "L"-word — "I love you" — is probably not recommended during the early stages of dating, even if that's the way you feel. It could come across as impulsive and intimidating, and your feelings might change, no matter how strongly you feel about the person. If, after the first date, you don’t feel like you can commit to the person, let them know right away so you don’t give them false hope. Only say that you want to be friends if you mean it, and if you actually want to spend time with this person on a regular basis. If you want to continue to be in each other’s lives, honesty will remain a critical ingredient to a healthy relationship! If you try dating, rejection is inevitable, but it’s not a reflection on whether or not you’re interesting or fun. If your date tells you they’re not interested in being involved with you – or simply stops responding to your texts – it shouldn’t stop you from continuing to meet new people.  If you suspect that rejection might be difficult for you, avoid apps like Tinder that involve evaluating people based on superficial criteria. Being turned down based on a quick glance and a reflexive reaction can be detrimental to one’s self-esteem.  If your date “ghosts” you, it’s more of a reflection of their lack of consideration than anything...

Article in English: After your puppy has mastered initial training, train in different locations. Throw in a distraction like a bouncing ball, then call its name. Practice while your puppy is playing, chewing, grooming, sleeping, etc. Aim to have your puppy respond to you no matter where you are. Once your puppy consistently responds to his name, slowly stop giving him treats (for name response). Give him a treat every other time he responds. Lengthen the time between treats until he no longer needs treats for name response. Once you are done training, continue using the puppy's name frequently. Say it when you walk, feed, bathe, or groom him. Say his name during positive moments. If it takes a while for your puppy to learn his name, that is okay. Each dog learns at his own pace. The key is to be consistent in saying his name. Over time, he will learn to understand that when he hears his name, you want his attention.  Remember that no dog will respond to his name 100% of the time. Dogs are not machines and thus make errors. They might not hear you or they might have a bad day and not want to listen.  Some dog breeds like hounds are more difficult to train than other breeds. Be extra patient.

Article in English: After you’ve been hurt by those close to you it is important to recognize that other people out there do have positive, good traits. Take a moment and think about times that people have been there for you. Maybe write these down and revisit them to start to restore trust in people. Then, look for friends who share your common interests and who will support you in achieving your life goals.  It is okay to tell your friends, after you get to know them a bit, that you are wary about trusting people. And, if your friends or significant other ask to meet your relatives you might just say, “I’m not sure if that is a good idea and when we have more time I will tell you why.” If you live at home with family, make plans to meet your friends elsewhere. This will keep some distance between the two groups as well. Or, you can always just chat with your friends online and blow off some steam that way too. Go have fun doing new activities as a group. These experiences will bond you all together and will give you more things to talk about in your down time. If your friends are busy, feel free to go out to dinner or a movie yourself. Enjoying one’s own company is important as well.  If you came from a large family and are used to being surrounded by people it may be a good idea to force yourself to do some activities solo. This will build your confidence and demonstrate that you can handle almost anything on your own. Plan some one-on-one or small-group activities as well, such as meeting a friend for coffee or going for a walk together. These activities are quieter and more focused on conversation. This can help build and strengthen relationships by promoting sharing and helping you assess if this is someone you can trust. If a friend asks you to do an activity or take a class with them, just say yes. Showing that you are available for the good times will make them more likely to confide in you when situations are difficult as well. Also, saying yes will help you stay on their radar as someone to call when they want to hang...

Article in English: Again, it’s always best to consult instructions for a particular instrument rather than general instructions. Study the chart to see which holes you have to cover to produce a specific note. Just like with a four-hole ocarina, the only way you’ll find any success playing this instrument is by memorizing how to produce a specific note. You need a labeling system — but this time, for six holes.  Put the ocarina’s mouthpiece in your mouth as though you were going to play it and look at the positioning of the holes on the top of the instrument from this perspective. In your mind, label the top left hole “1,” the top right “2,” the bottom left “3,” and the bottom right “4.” Then imagine the holes on the bottom of the instrument, which can be covered with your thumbs. Label the one on the left “5” and the one on the right “6.” Drill those hole positions into your head so that you can easily read these instructions for how to play scales. An “x” will be used to symbolize an open hole, meaning you should not cover that hole with your finger. Even though the six-hole ocarina has two extra holes on the back, it uses the same basic system as the four-hole ocarina. The significant difference is that to produce the notes from the four-hole instrument, you must cover the two holes on the bottom while following the same pattern in the top four holes. Memorize this scale progression, beginning slowly again and focusing on familiarizing yourself with the notes. Use the following finger patterns to work through the scales:  Middle C: 1 2 3 4 5 6 D: 1 X 3 4 5 6 E: 1 2 3 X 5 6 F: 1 X 3 X 5 6 F# (Gb): X 2 3 4 5 6 G: X X 3 4 5 6 G# (Ab): X 2 3 X 5 6 A: X X 3 X 5 6 A# (Bb): X X X 4 5 6 B: X 2 X X 5 6 C: XXXX 5 6 These holes raise the basic notes from the previous step by one step (a semitone) or by two steps (a tone).  To raise a note by one step, begin with the fingering for the lower note as on a four-hole instrument, but cover hole 5 covered and leave 6 open. To raise a note by two steps, start again with the fingering for the...

Article in English: Again, you can use either 000 steel wool or 600 to 1200-grit sandpaper to polish the metal. While the cleaning solution you use may not require it, the chemicals used in the hot bluing process proper, normally potassium nitrate and sodium hydroxide, are highly caustic. You’ll find it easier to dip the gun barrel if you thread soft wire through it and easier to dip the smaller parts if you put them in a wire basket. Rigging the parts now before the cleaning step will make it easier to transfer from the cleaning to the bluing tank, and will also clean the support wire and basket to prevent either from contaminating the gun parts in the bluing tank. Parts should be immersed in the bath for 10 to 15 minutes and scrubbed while being immersed to remove any oil, dirt, or grease that could get in the way of the bluing process. You can use any of the chemical cleaners listed in the cleaning step for cold bluing, provided you read and follow all directions for the cleaner’s use, handling, and disposal. Rinsing should take no more than 2 to 3 minutes. If you’ve used dishwashing detergent to remove the cleaning chemical, you may instead need to use hot water to rinse. The hot bluing solution, known as “Traditional Caustic Black.”, must be heated to a temperature of from 275 to 311 degrees F (135 to 155 degrees C).  Before heating the bluing solution, stir it thoroughly to break up any salt clumps that may occur on the surface or at the bottom of the tank holding the solution. When dipping gun barrels in bluing solution, dip them at an angle to allow any air bubbles that may form to escape. Be sure to immerse the barrel completely. Swirl the metal basket containing smaller gun parts around in the solution to ensure the parts are completely coated with the bluing solution. Leave the gun parts in the bluing solution from 15 to 30 minutes. Check to see when the metal has reached the desired shade of bluing and remove it from the solution at that time. If your gun has stainless steel parts, those parts are immersed in a...

Article in English: Agar is the jelly-like substance used to culture bacteria. It is made from a type of red algae, which provides an ideal growing surface for many different types of bacteria. Some types of agar contain added nutrients (such as sheep's blood) which help to promote more vigorous bacterial growth.  The easiest type of agar to use in this experiment is a nutrient agar which comes in powder form. You will need as much agar as you need, but don't use less than 1.2 grams (½ teaspoon) of agar powder for every 10 centimetres (3.9 in) Petri dish you wish to use. In a heatproof dish or bowl, stir 1.2 grams (½ teaspoon)  of the nutrient agar powder into 60 millilitres (0.25  c) of hot water. Multiply these quantities by however many Petri dishes you plan on using. Place the bowl or dish in the microwave, and let it begin to boil for 1 or more minutes, watching to make sure that the agar solution doesn't boil over. When the solution is ready, the agar powder should be completely dissolved and the liquid should be clear in color. Allow the agar solution to cool for several minutes before proceeding.You don't want to get burnt! Petri dishes are small flat-bottomed containers made of clear glass or plastic. They have two halves - a top and a bottom - which slot into one another. This protects the contents from any unwanted contaminated air, but also allows any gasses produced by the bacteria to escape.  Petri dishes must be completely sterilized before they are used for growing bacteria, otherwise, the results of the experiment could be affected. Newly purchased Petri dishes should come pre-sterilized and sealed in plastic packaging. Remove the Petri dish from its packaging and separate the two halves. Very carefully, pour the warm agar solution into the bottom half of the Petri dish - just enough to form a layer over the bottom of the dish. Work in the presence of a candle with a tall flame or a Bunsen burner to keep contamination low. Quickly replace the top half of the Petri dish to prevent any airborne bacteria from...

Article in English: Age can play a huge role in the appearance of your chest. Boys going through puberty and older men can both develop temporary enlarged chests as a result of hormone imbalances. Consult with a doctor but realize that the problem will likely resolve itself. The best first step in reducing the appearance of a fat chest is to consult with your doctor. An enlarged chest can be a sign of serious health problems in men or it can simply be a sign of minor health issues. Only your doctor can know for sure, as various tests may be necessary.

Article in English: Ahi tuna is sold in form of large steaks or fillets that can be cooked in a similar fashion to beef steaks. Look for deep red tuna steaks with firm flesh. Avoid steaks that have a rainbow sheen or look dry, also avoid buying fish that looks mottled or pale in color.  Buy a six-ounce steak per serving you need. If you're using frozen tuna steak, thaw it completely and put in the refrigerator before using. Fresh tuna is in season from late spring to early fall. If you're choosing fresh tuna, it's best to get it while it's in season. Frozen tuna is available all year round. Ahi or yellowfin tuna from the United States or Canada is the best choice, since it has relatively low levels of mercury and is not in danger of being overfished. Bluefin tuna should be avoided, as the mercury levels are higher and it is being over-fished across the world. Seared tuna is frequently coated with spices that complement the tuna's meaty flavour. You can use a steak rub or any other type of spice mix that includes ingredients like garlic powder, pepper and dried herbs. Try making your own spice mix by combining the following ingredients in a bowl (makes enough to coat one six-ounce steak):  1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1/4 teaspoon dried basil 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano Tuna steaks and fillets are easy to sear on either a grill or stove top. The key is to fully heat the cooking implement you're using before adding the tuna. This will ensure that the tuna cooks evenly and attains a good crunchy sear.  If you're using the stove top, heat a cast iron skillet or other heavy skillet over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of peanut oil or canola oil and heat it until the oil just begins to smoke.  If you're using a grill, light the charcoal at least half an hour before you plan to cook the tuna. that way it will have plenty of time to get nice and hot before you add the tuna. Each six-ounce steak or fillet will need approximately one to two tablespoons of...

Article in English: Aim to leave at a time when your abuser will be out of the house, such as at work or out with friends.  Give yourself plenty of time to gather essential supplies such as necessary paperwork (e.g., passports, birth certificate), essentials such as wallet, house and car keys, a change of clothes, and contact information for family and friends, or for a shelter for the abused.  It is not necessary to leave a note saying you have left, but if you do, make sure you do not mention anything about where you will be going.

Also, abuse doesn't have to mean consistent physical violence; it can also include cases where:  You have never been physically hit.  Abuse can be primarily emotional or verbal.  The abuse doesn’t seem as bad as other instances of abuse you’ve heard about.   You have been hit once or a couple of times. If your abuser has struck you once, there's a good chance he will do it again.   The abuse stopped after you gave into your abuser's demands. In some cases, abuse is followed by a "honeymoon phase," a period in which the abuser treats his victim nicely. This may last for a few minutes or a few weeks. Do not fall for this, as it is just a ploy. You will very likely be abused again in the future if you stick around. In particular, in the honeymoon phase your abuser may:  Be apologetic Be extra attentive to you Help out more around the house Make promises to change his abusive behavior Give you gifts Compliment you Spend more time with you One common reason individuals stay in abusive relationships is because they have hope that their abuser will change. This hope may be fueled in part by the abuser's honeymooning behaviors. Do not let his behavior in the...

Article in English: Air dusters are not just for cleaning keyboards! Applying air dusters, or canned air, will use compressed cold air to dry your wet nails quickly. Be careful when using canned air and hold the can about 12 inches (30 cm) away from your hand. The chemicals and extreme cold can damage your skin, otherwise. Moving air currents are very effective when drying nails. Use your handy blow dryer to get a faster dry time on your manicure. Do not put your blow dryer on high or high heat. This may smudge your nails. The high heat may also damage your skin. Use a olive-oil based cooking spray and spritz it on your still-wet manicure. It will help seal your nail polish and dry it faster. Hold the can about 12 inc (30 cm) away from your hand as to not smudge the wet paint with the force of the aerosol.

Article in English: Air is the enemy of gel liner. To keep your liner fresh and creamy, seal your lid tightly. Never leave your liner out without a lid. Storing your liner upside down helps keep the moisture and oils in the liner at the top. The bottom may dry out a little, but this helps keep the usable part of your liner fresh. Place a small piece of plastic cling wrap in between your liner pot and lid. Then, screw the lid on tight. This helps keep the oils in the eyeliner fresh in between uses.

Article in English: Air purifiers are devices that remove pollutants from the air. They typically use a replaceable filter to catch contaminants in the air and trap them. There are four basic types of air purifier commonly available for purchase:    Charcoal filter air purifiers use a thick layer of carbon to force-filter pollutants from the air. Charcoal carbon filters are commonly used to purify water for public water systems as well, because they're cheap, long-lasting, and reasonably effective.   Electrostatic filter purifiers use static electricity to pull particles from the air in much the same way that a plastic pocket comb carrying a static charge attracts flakes of black pepper. Because these filters use an electric field to charge and attract pollutants, there's no need to pull the air through a thick filter, which makes them quieter and economical.   HEPA filter purifiers are a very popular type of filter with a reputation for being the most effective of all home filtration methods. HEPA stands for “high efficiency particulate air.” HEPA filters can only be certified as such if they're proven to filter out 99.7% or more of all airborne particulates larger than 0.3 micrometers across.   Ionization filter purifiers use a high-powered electric charge to ionize pollutants and compel them to stick to a surface rather than continue to float in the air. Ionization filters are at least somewhat effective, but their effectiveness compared to other types of filter has been called into question by reputable entities (such as Consumer Reports), and as such this guide doesn't recommend using one. Expect to pay between $60 and $300 U.S. for a home purifier. Filters on these devices will need to be replaced occasionally, but the devices themselves should last for many years. Be sure to read the instructions for your purifier and replace the filter according to the suggested timetable. A purifier with a used up filter won't be effective. Much of the pollution in your home is likely the result of less-than-optimal ventilation...

Article in English: Air that is forced through your home will still contain smoky smells, so replacing any and all filters will begin to purify the air and move clean, fresh air into the home. You can clean filters in TSP solutions. While wearing gloves, simply soak the filter in a TSP solution and agitate it for no more than an hour. Use a brush to further rid of any dirt or remaining odors. Rinse thoroughly after cleaning. You can choose to install an air purifier in your home's forced air system or you can buy purifiers that can be placed in a single room. Make sure to take into consideration the size of the room or home, and purchase equipment that is the right size and strength for the area. Note that most air purifiers won't remove gaseous pollutants created by smoke. While those equipped with HEPA filters may reduce certain airborne particles created in relation to the smoke, this won't be 100 percent effective. If you do decide to try this option anyway, do some additional research into the options presently available to find out which, if any, are proven to be effective at removing the odor of smoke. Activated charcoal works to absorb odors over time. Place bowls of charcoal around places within your home that cannot be aired out, such as a windowless room or cupboard space. Over time, the charcoal should soak up the odors.

Article in English: AirDrop does not transfer over your standard wireless network, so you'll need to ensure that the two devices are physically close to each other. For optimal performance, both devices should be within 30 feet (10 meters) of each other. AirDrop allows for file transfers between iOS devices and OS X computers, but you'll need to meet some basic requirements in order to use it. AirDrop requires:  iOS Devices - iPhone 5 or later, iPad mini, iPad 4th Generation or later, or iPod Touch 5th Generation or later. Must be running iOS 7 or later, iOS 8 if you intend to use AirDrop between your iPhone and Mac. Mac Computers - OS X Yosemite (10.10) or later for transferring between iOS and OS X. MacBooks from mid-2012 or newer and iMacs from late 2012 should work. If your AirDrop visibility is turned off, other devices won't be able to find you.  iOS - Open the Control Center and tap the AirDrop button. Select "Everyone" for maximum compatibility. You'll still need to confirm transfers, so this isn't really a security issue. OS X - Open a Finder window and select the AirDrop option in the left menu. Set "Allow me to be discovered by" to "Everyone." You'll have to manually confirm transfers, so this isn't a security risk. Leave the AirDrop window open while attempting to connect. A common fix for connection problems is toggling your device's Bluetooth adapter off and on again.  iOS - You can quickly do this by swiping up from the bottom of your screen to open the Control Center and then tapping the Bluetooth button. OS X - Click the Bluetooth menu button and turn Bluetooth off and then back on. AirDrop uses a combination of these two connections to setup an AirDrop connection. Check the Control Center on your iOS device and the menu bar on your OS X computer to ensure that both of these services are turned on. AirDrop has always been a bit buggy, and sometimes software updates will fix the issue you're having. Updates for iOS and OS X are free, but they may take a little while to complete.  iOS - Open the Settings app and...

Article in English: Alcohol is a big no-no for pregnant women, as its consumption is responsible for an array of birth defects and complications. Drinking alcohol significantly increases the risk of miscarriage or stillbirth, makes it more likely that your child will have developmental disabilities later in life, and puts your baby at risk of fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS). Cut alcohol out of your diet completely while pregnant, to avoid risking these complications. If necessary, seek help from a therapist specialized in drug and alcohol use.  If you happened to consume alcohol prior to knowledge of your pregnancy, don’t worry - so long as you cease your drinking habits, it is unlikely you’ll experience alcohol-related complications. Some doctors and women believe that an occasional small glass of wine during pregnancy is okay. Talk to your doctor about this. Although coffee, tea, and soda may be favorite drinks, if they contain caffeine they can be harmful to your little one. Caffeine consumption while pregnant is linked to higher rates of miscarriage and birth complications.  It is best to cut out caffeine from your lifestyle altogether, but some doctors believe up to 200 milligrams (equal to one 10oz cup of coffee) per day is safe. When possible, use caffeine-free or decaffeinated versions of coffee, tea, and soda. Foods that contain caffeine (like chocolate) are fine in moderation, because the levels are so low. Certain food-borne illnesses, including toxoplasmosis and listeriosis, are often present in undercooked and raw meat. These illnesses can be quite dangerous to a developing child, making it best to avoid the foods that carry them. Avoid eating any shellfish, raw fish (like sushi/sashimi), rare or seared meat, and raw eggs. Heavy metals, like mercury and lead, are incredibly damaging to a growing baby and can even cause death in high enough amounts. Some fish have particularly high levels of mercury, making them dangerous for pregnant women to consume. These fish include swordfish, shark, king mackerel, tuna steak, and...

Article in English: Algae will grow unchecked if you don't remove it promptly. Spot treat algae when  you see it to prevent an infestation.  If you see green algae at the bottom of a bird bath, immediately empty the water. From there, wipe off the algae. Then, add fresh water. If you have a large pond or bird bath, you can purchase a biodegradable ball online or at a local hardware or gardening store. These balls are designed to keep algae out of your pond. You simply need to place the ball in your large bird bath or pond after purchase. Then, you can throw the ball into your pond. It should keep algae in check for about 30 days. Enzymes can work better as a treatment for a smaller bird baths. If you notice algae in your pool, you can purchase a disposable container of enzymes which you can place in your bird bath. This should keep your bird bath algae free for about 30 days. Specialized bird bath cleaners can come in the form of cleansers or powders. Cleaners can be a great way to clean out your bird bath and keep it algae free. When cleaning your bird bath, consider a specialty cleaner if algae is a major problem. Keep in mind, you can clean your bird bath with a mild detergent if algae is not a major problem.

Article in English: Algebra is a system of manipulating numbers and operations to try to solve problems. When you learn algebra, you will learn the rules to follow for solving problems. But to help make that easier, you need to have a strong understanding of basic math facts. You should know basic addition, subtraction, multiplication and division facts and be able to work with them easily. In particular, you should be able to do the following:  Add and subtract single digit numbers in your head quickly. Being able to work with two-digit numbers is even more helpful. Know your multiplication tables from 1 through 12. Know division and factors for numbers up through 144 (12x12). Algebra uses the rules of fractions as much as any other numbering system. You need to be comfortable with finding common denominators, adding and subtracting fractions, multiplying and dividing fractions. When you learn algebra, you will expand this knowledge into working with unknown variables, but you need a strong understanding of the basics first. Know the importance of reciprocals. You need to know the concept of reciprocal numbers. The short definition of a reciprocal is that it is a fraction turned upside down. Thus, the reciprocal of 23{\displaystyle {\frac {2}{3}}} is 32{\displaystyle {\frac {3}{2}}}, and the reciprocal of 45{\displaystyle {\frac {4}{5}}} is 54{\displaystyle {\frac {5}{4}}}. You use reciprocals as an alternative to division, when the problem is complicated. Instead of dividing by one fraction, you can multiply by its reciprocal. You will often be using negative numbers or variables. You should review how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide negatives before starting to learn algebra. Here are some basic rules for working with negatives. You can also see our articles on adding and subtracting negative numbers and dividing and multiplying negative numbers.  On a number line, a negative number is the same distance from zero as the positive, but in the opposite direction. A negative plus a negative will also be negative. Adding...

Article in English: Align your heels at shoulder width apart, press your buttocks against the wall, and be sure your shoulder blades are touching the wall (this is more important than the tops of your shoulders touching the wall).  You may need to squeeze your shoulder blades together slightly to get them in a more natural position and align with the wall. This is sometimes called "opening your chest." As you get into position, pay attention to your head position. Notice whether or not the back of your head touches the wall. If it does not touch the wall, you have forward head posture, and it is likely that you suffer from weak neck muscles. Pretend that there is a string going from the base of your neck to the top of your head. Pull that string up from the top creating a longer neck. As the back of your neck gets longer, you chin should tuck in and down somewhat toward the back of your neck. This is correct neck and head posture. Make sure you are not simply moving your head backwards and increasing the curve of the neck. This is also improper posture. Focus on creating length in the back of the neck. This is your correct head posture, and you want your body to remember it. Return to this position frequently to review how your posture is changing.

Article in English: All CCTV security cameras need both power and video (2 in one cable), so you can run just one cable from the DVR to each camera. You can run each camera's cable up to 700 feet (213.4 m) without any video loss. Simply connect the video cable to the DVR (it says BNC), and plug the power into the power supply RG59 Siamese Cable. It is the type of cable used to run most CCTV installs. This cable consists of one video cable and one power cable (positive and negative), thus the name siamese. Designate the location for your DVR and Monitor to be stationed. If you purchased a bulk roll of RG59, ask if the company will automatically supply the BNC connections free of charge. You may use twist-ons (most commonly used), or crimp on connections.

Article in English: All Catholics aged fourteen and older are asked to abstain from meat on Lenten Fridays, though fish is allowed to be eaten.  Additionally, Catholics aged 18-59 are obliged to fast on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday, and all Lenten Fridays, meaning that only one full meal may be eaten in the day. Of course, do this however you feel is safe and effective.  Some people should definitely not fast (the pregnant or the elderly, for example). If fasting isn't a reasonable option for you, fast from something other than food. Make sure it's something that's a challenge -- like your phone or email -- so you can feel the sacrifice you're making.     Fasting is by and large becoming more voluntary than anything. Way back in 1966, Pope Paul VI made fasting only mandatory on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday -- everything else is at your discretion.    While many people choose to give harmful things up for Lent, you could use the season to help you build good habits. You could promise to be more patient and kind toward your neighbor, or you could vow to help the needy.  Whether you choose to sacrifice or to adopt new, strengthening habits, you should allow your Lenten promises to help you grow in faith and virtue. In addition to bettering your own life, take this time to build habits that better the lives of others. Volunteer at a hospital or shelter, or simply get more active in your church by offering to greet, read, or take care of the offerings.    Though some see it as largely a Jewish tradition, that is not the case! On Holy (or Maundy) Thursday, many Catholics have a seder meal, commemorating the Last Supper of Jesus -- the very last day of Lent. You eat the "meal" in silence, reflecting on your Lenten experiences with unleavened bread and wine (or grape juice). How has this Lent changed you? If you'd like to get a little historical with it, try including matzah (unleavened bread), maror (horseradish root), egg, or haroset (apple, spice, and red wine mixture) as part of your meal.     Many communities choose to partake in...

Article in English: All buildings must be classified into one of six construction classes (see number 3). Classification of a building class is based on two factors: building elements and fire-resistance rating.  These factors may not be included in the submission/documentation, in which case additional information will need to be requested.    Building elements: The building materials used in the construction of the following elements are the foundation for classification, be they wood, steel, or masonry.  Structural frame Exterior bearing walls Interior bearing walls Exterior nonbearing  walls and partitions Interior non-bearing walls and partitions Floor construction, including supporting beams and joists Roof construction, including supporting beams and joists, are comprised of    Fire-resistance rating: This is the other factor in determining construction class.  The building materials used in the construction of the building elements above will have a fire-resistance rating.  Fire-resistance rating typically means the duration for which a passive fire protection system can withstand a standard fire resistance test. This can be quantified simply as a measure of time (ex. 0 hours, 1 hour, or 2 hours), or it may entail a host of other criteria involving other evidence of functionality or fitness for purpose.  “Minimum” rule: It is important to remember when selecting the construction class that the building is only as strong as its weakest element.  For example, a masonry building may have an unprotected wood roof.  The wood roof is the weakest member such that it has no fire-resistance.  Thus, the construction class would be Joisted Masonry (see below).  Now imagine this same building with a metal deck roof.  So long as the supporting members of the building do not contain wood then this building would be Masonry Noncombustible (see below). To determine the ISO class of the building, we must therefore know the following composition of the building elements:  Structural frame Bearing walls (interior and exterior) Floor...

Article in English: All children need discipline and they need to learn that bad behavior comes with consequences.Taking Charge of ADHD: The Complete, Authoritative Guide For Parents by Russell A. Barkley (2005).</ref> For discipline to change behavior in ADHD teens, it must be, above all, consistent.  Teens should know the rules and know the consequences for breaking the rules. The consequence should  happens the same every time the rule is broken.  Both parents must be on board, providing consequences in the same way. Because teens with ADHD have a harder time focusing, it is important to make consequences as immediate as possible.  The consequence should have an immediate impact. It should not be delayed. Persons with ADHD often struggle with time concepts, so postponed consequences may have no meaning. If the child experiences forgotten consequences for a previous infraction, this invites conflict. Consequences for misbehavior should be substantial. If your teen can easily dismiss them, they will not be taken seriously.  If the consequence for speeding was paying a fine of a dollar, we’d all speed constantly. That isn’t a powerful enough consequence to change our behavior. We will monitor our speed to avoid a $200 ticket plus higher insurance premiums. The same applies to children with ADHD. The consequence needs to be powerful enough to act as a deterrent.  Don’t backtrack on consequences. If you threaten a dire consequence and you don’t follow through on the promised punishment, your teen won’t listen next time. Say what you mean and mean what you say if you want respect and obedience. Administer discipline in a way that suggests you are rational and in control of the situation. Your anger or raised voice may cause anxiety or send a message that your child can control you by getting you angry. Remaining calm and loving will convey the message you want. People with ADHD tend to feel that they’re “always” messing up or in trouble. Regardless of your parenting style or personality, it’s extremely important that you stay...

Article in English: All genuine Ray-Ban products are crafted from high-quality materials using the finest manufacturing processes. Notably, the plastic body of Ray-Ban sunglasses are cut from a single piece of acetate and are hand-polished. Because of this, you shouldn't be able to detect any nicks, rough spots, or especially seams on your glasses. These are after-products from cheap manufacturing processes and are dead giveaways that a pair of "Ray-Bans" aren't what they are being billed as. Seams can be anywhere on a fake pair of Ray-Bans, but they're especially likely to be on the places where the mold used to create the plastic closed — namely, the upper edges of the glasses above the lenses and the tops of the "arms" that rest on your ears. Take your Ray-Bans in your hands. Turn them over a few times. Gently toss them an inch or two up and catch them.They should have some weight to them and feel solid and substantial. They shouldn't feel unusually light, thin, or fragile. If your glasses seem like they may not be heavy enough to keep a few pieces of loose paper from blowing away, there's a good chance they're not real. Real Ray-Bans have metal support struts inside the “arms” that sit on your ears that are responsible for much of their weight. If you have a model with transparent arms (like, for instance, the Clubmaster Squares), you should be able to see this metal. If you can’t, you’ll know you’ve been wearing fakes. Take your glasses off and look at them from the front. Give the lenses a few gentle flicks with your fingernail. If they have the look, feel, and "clinking" sound of genuine glass, this is a good sign — many Ray-Bans use real glass for their lenses. Non-glass lenses don't necessarily mean that your glasses are fake, however, unless they're obviously cheap-looking, cloudy, or poor-quality. If your lenses don’t feel like glass, don’t panic — some models of Ray-Bans have non-glass lenses but are still made from the highest quality materials. To be clear, perfectly clear, glass lenses are a sign that your glasses...

Article in English: All pantyhose are constructed so that the top part fits like a panty, which serves the dual purpose of keeping the pantyhose from falling down and hugging your shape to create a slimmer silhouette. The amount of "control" in the top part of the pantyhose varies from high control to none. Choose the type of top that caters to your personal preferences, giving you both the look and comfort level you want.  Control-top pantyhose have built-in underwear that fits tightly around the midsection. If you're interested in smoothing out your curves, this might be the right option for you. However, many people find that control-top pantyhose feel uncomfortably tight, and sometimes dig in at the waist to create a cinched appearance. Regular, standard panty-hose have a simpler construction and aren't meant to provide extra support around your midsection. If you don't want to change the look of your shape, opt for these instead of the control top pantyhose. Pantyhose range from very (or "ultra) sheer to opaque, and the different levels of sheerness result in quite different final looks. If you pick very sheer pantyhose that match your skin tone, it might not look like you're wearing pantyhose at all. Opaque pantyhose have a much more noticeable appearance.  Sheer pantyhose are a bit flimsier than thicker opaque pantyhose - something to keep in mind if you're concerned about durability. Opaque pantyhose are a little warmer than sheer pantyhose, so they're better suited to winter wear. Pantyhose are usually sized according to weight and height, since they need to stretch from a person's toes to the waist. Check the packaging that comes with the pantyhose and determine what size matches your weight and height range. If you hate the feeling of wearing too-tight pantyhose, size up! The pantyhose will likely still be tight enough to stay around your waist instead of falling down. Some pantyhose come with extra that are intended to make them feel more comfortable. If you've had trouble finding a pair that feels comfortable in the...

Article in English: All plants have certain climates they prefer. Although magnolia trees tend to prefer temperate environments, they're quite adaptable. However, the potential for harsh weather conditions can make it trickier to make the tree thrive. "Plant hardiness" charts are available to refer to in this instance. They can offer a general indication of how appropriate your climate is for growing.  Some of the bigger magnolia trees will grow between 40-70 feet tall.  Certain magnolia trees are better suited to certain climates. Although magnolia trees are usually perfect for temperate weather, certain species like the Southern magnolia will suffer if the temperature drops below -5°C (23°F). This temperature issue can be lessened by planting the tree in an area where it won't get as much wind. You should keep the time of year in mind as well. Magnolia trees are best planted in the early spring. This will allow the trees to make the most of the seasonal changes in its first year of life.  The damages of harsh weather can be minimized by growing your tree somewhere where there is wind protection. Growing your tree in an enclosed area (like fenced housing) will help protect your tree during the most vulnerable years. Magnolia trees favour getting full sun, but they can suffice with light shade as well. However, if you live in a particularly dry climate, it may actually benefit the tree to have a bit of moisture-saving shade. Generally speaking, you'll want to find a place that gets at least some sun every day. The spot should also have enough room for a tree to grow to its full height naturally. This means keeping it away from potential obstructions, such as housing or low-hanging power lines.  If you know your magnolia tree grows big (such as the Southern magnolia), do not grow it within six feet of a sidewalk or concrete foundation. These larger magnolias will break through the concrete with their roots several years from now. Because growing a magnolia tree is a long-term effort, it's important to choose a spot where you'll...

Article in English: All pre-hung storm doors come in a range of standard sizes, which vary slightly from manufacturer to manufacturer. Therefore, all you need to do is match your personal door measurements to the closest standard size.   Choose a storm door manufacturer (such as Larson, Andersen, or EMCO) and consult their doorway opening size guide to match your measurements. For example, following the Larson size guide, a door opening measuring 35-7/8" x 80" would require a 36" x 81" standard-size storm door. Sometimes the width of your door measures more than the standard sized storm doors.  In this situation, it is possible to purchase a z-bar extender kit to fill in the excess space between the door trim and the storm door. This is a convenient option that saves you the trouble of ordering a custom-sized door. However, it is only possible if the door opening is less than an inch wider than the largest standard door size. If your door has unusual measurements that don't fit within the standard sizes, you may need to order a custom-sized storm door. Once you do this, you're ready to install the storm door yourself. Happy installation!   This may be more expensive than the cost of standard sized doors, but it will be worth it for a properly fitting storm door. Most of the main storm door manufacturers off a service for ordering custom sized door.

Summary in Russian:

Купите наружную дверь стандартного размера. Используйте z-bar. Закажите наружную дверь.


Article in English: All service dogs are neutered. This is because females can't work while in heat (you will be followed by a pack of dogs wanting to mate her) and males are more easily distracted by territorial issues. Also neutered dogs tend to be less aggressive, which is important for a service dog.  Spay or neuter your dog when they are between four and six months of age to prevent females coming into heat and distracted males. This works well as a general guide and is much less effort. If you are experienced and will not have the dog near unfixed dogs at any time (not to be taken lightly), the ideal is between one and two years depending on when your dog's bone's growth plates close (usually earlier for small dogs and later for larger dogs). This enables the dog to have stronger bones, which is especially important for some kinds of service dogs that perform rigorous physical tasks for the handler (such as mobility assistance dogs). Depending on the weight of your dog, a neutering costs between USD$200 and USD$300 at most vets. A service dog has to be able to sit, stay, lie down, and come on cue. The dog also needs to walk next to the handler in a controlled manner all the time. This is so that you have control over your dog at all times.  You can use either verbal cues or hand signals as commands. This is done by using a treat and holding it just in front of the dog's nose. Then raise the treat in an arc, backwards over his head. As he looks up to follow the treat, his bottom drops to the deck. Click, give the command word 'Sit' and then reward.  Recall can be tricky if the dog is distracted, so start the lessons indoors away from other animals, or in an enclosed back yard. Call the dog to you, when he comes, click, repeat the cue word, eg 'Come', and reward. If the dog fails to come, or is tardy about it, never ever reprimand the dog. This only makes him more reluctant next time. The foundation of training a service dog is the same as teaching good manners and discipline to a regular dog, except you take things a step...

Article in English: All snakes, venomous or otherwise, will not pursue a human being unless provoked. Know that you are a larger predator and that the snake will keep to itself if you don't bother it.  If you see that the snake has coiled itself up and opened its mouth wide, then you know that it sees you as a threat. Step away slowly to avoid any further risk. Remember that snakes are positive forces in our ecosystem, controlling rodent and insect populations. While it's not comforting to see one in your home, you really don't want to kill it, as it does control pest populations within your area. Prevent cruelty against snakes by not acting out in fear. There are methods to discover if a snake is venomous.Some major qualities of venomous snakes are fat bodies, large fangs, and slit-like eyes. You'll also want to keep your eyes out for the iconic rattling tail.  If you think that you may live in an area where one of these species lives, make sure that you can identify them.Four major species include: The Copperhead. A pit viper with a tan and copper coloration. Their bites are very painful, but rarely fatal. The Coral Snake. The most dangerous of the four. They can be recognized by their red, yellow and black stripes. Know that they can be easily mistaken for the Milk snake, a harmless beast, because of their very similar colorations. While the colors are the same, the patterns on the two species differ. The rhymes "Red on Black, friend of Jack" and "Red on Yellow, kill a fellow" will help you differentiate between the Milksnake and the Coral Snake, respectively. The Cottonmouth. A quick, cranky snake with a brown and olive body. When threatened, they will stand their ground and flash the light "cotton" lining within their mouths. The Rattlesnake. The most infamous and recognizable snake on this list, the Rattlesnake has a brown coloration with lighter stripes, as well as its iconic rattling tail. There are also a wide variety of different vipers, cobras, and other venomous snake breeds. Check your local wildlife brochure to see...

Article in English: All that you need to make a posting on an online auction site like eBay are the technical specification of your computer and a few pictures for good measure. You may be surprised to discover that people out there are actually willing to pay money for relatively old machines. For instance, certain types of hardware from the 80's and early 90's may be considered "vintage" and thus fetch a reasonable price from collectors.  If your computer is so old as to be rare or remarkable, you may actually be able to sell (or donate) it to a computer museum where it will be preserved for its role in history. Also be open to the possibility of selling your computer's parts, rather than the entire machine. If some of your computer's components are higher-quality than others (i.e: after-market video cards, memory, etc.), it may be well worth the effort to remove and sell them separately. Before you throw your computer out, ask around to see if any of your friends are looking for an older computer. Tech-savvy people sometimes reconfigure old computers for use as file servers or e-mail stations. They may also be able to scrap your computer for parts, taking what they need and properly disposing of the rest. Your old computer may be insufficient for your purposes, but, to someone who's not used to modern computers, it may seem borderline-miraculous. Consider giving your computer to an elderly user like a parent or grandparent. Old, slow computers are perfect for the types of basic tasks that elderly relatives are likely to be interested in.  When you have time, try teaching him or her how to use e-mail and surf the web - you'll be doing him or her a favor and ensuring that your old computer isn't going to waste. Many organizations that exist primarily for the public good have programs to make use of older computers. Contact a local school, church, youth organization, non-profit, or charity and ask if they're willing to find a use for your old computer. There are a wide variety of charitable uses for computers. For instance, some...

Article in English: All you need to calculate a basic growth rate are two numbers - one that represents a certain quantity's starting value and another that represents is ending value. For instance, if your business was worth $1,000 at the beginning of the month and it's worth $1,200 today, you'll calculate growth rate with 1,000 as your starting (or "past") value and 1,200 as your ending (or "present") value.  Let's do a simple example problem.  In this case, we will use the two numbers 205 (as our past value) and 310 (as our present value). If both values are the same, there is no growth - the growth rate is 0. Simply insert your past and present values into  the following formula:  (Present) - (Past) / (Past) . You'll get a fraction as an answer - divide this fraction to get a decimal value. In our example, we'll insert 310 as our present value and 205 as our past value. Our formula will look like this:  (310 - 205)/205 = 105/205 = 0.51 Most growth rates are written as percents. To convert your decimal answer to a percentage, simply multiply it by 100, then add a percentage sign ("%"). Percentages are an easy-to-digest, universally-understood way to express change between two numbers.  So, for our example, we would multiply 0.51 by 100, then add a percent sign.  0.51 x 100 = 51%.   Our answer means our growth rate is 51%. In other words, our present value is 51% bigger than our past value. If our present value was smaller than our past value, our growth rate would be  negative.

Article in English: All you really need is something to hold the litter, though there are more expensive versions that offer a self-cleaning function or grass on top (with waste collecting in a lower pan).  The box should be big enough for your dog to turn around in. The sides should be low enough that your dog can enter by himself, but high enough to stop your dog from peeing out of the box if he lifts his leg. If you buy a box with a hood, consider cutting the top off to make the box easier for your dog to use and for you to clean. Dog litter works best because it has larger pellets that are more absorbent. Dog litter ranges from simple clay to those with activated charcoal to control odor. For your own odor control, simply sprinkle baking soda on the bottom of the box each time before you fill it. You need to remove your dog’s waste every time he eliminates in the box, if possible. Having a scoop and trashcan nearby will make this much easier. You want the box near the places your dog spends most of his time, but also out of the way enough that you’re not watching him.  Don’t place the box near your dog’s food and water, as dogs will not eliminate where they eat. Be aware that dogs have a tendency to dig in their box, especially at first. Place it so that any litter thrown out during digging will not cause too much of a mess. Your cat needs to feel ownership of his box, or he will start peeing outside the box to mark his territory. And if you have two dogs, it’s best to get each of them their own box to avoid similar issues with territoriality.

Article in English: Allergens such as dust, pollen, pet dander and mold can irritate the nasal cavity and lead to postnasal drip.  Bathe pets to remove dander that may cause an irritation leading to postnasal drip. It may be necessary to remove pets from the home if the allergic reaction and postnasal drip is severe. Remove (flowering and non-flowering) plants from the home. Enclose unused pillows and mattresses in plastic to minimize allergens while sleeping. Clean your living areas, such as by sweeping, mopping, and dusting. An air purifier cleanses the air. Make sure to keep it on while you sleep as well. In addition, using a humidifier can add moisture to the air, which relieves the irritation in the nasal cavity. When the nasal cavity is irritated, it produces excess mucus as a response. If you don’t have a humidifier, take a hot shower and inhale the steam. Chronic postnasal drip could be caused by an underlying food allergy that you don't yet know about or have recently developed. Check with an allergist to see if you could be allergic to something and not yet know it.  The two main allergies are to gluten/wheat and dairy. Dairy is often linked to sinus, upper respiratory, and throat problems, while wheat is often associated gastrointestinal tract problems.  Since dairy is a likely culprit, phase dairy out of your diet for one month. If you experience no change in your symptoms, you've ruled out dairy as a possible allergen. If you experience an improvement in symptoms, you know that your body reacts to dairy by producing more mucus, although studies indicate a no clear link between dairy and mucus production.

Article in English: Allium bulbs need minimal moisture, but they should get about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of water per week. You may not need to water them during regular periods of rainfall, but you should consider watering them lightly during dry periods. You only need to water the bulbs during their active growth periods—spring, summer, and early fall. Once the plant enters dormancy, you can stop watering it. You shouldn't need to worry about pests, rodents, or diseases when you plant alliums. They are not susceptible to any serious plant diseases, and they actually tend to drive off deer, rodents, and most insects. As such, pesticides and fungicides are not necessary. Since alliums are so good at discouraging garden pests, they are often used as a border plant. Consider positioning alliums around the perimeter of your garden to protect more tempting flowers lying further in. If you decide to pick the flowers for decorative purposes, leave behind as many leaves as possible. The bulb will produce flowers each year but it needs to gather as many nutrients through photosynthesis as possible each season. Its leaves are crucial in this process. Allium flowers can be used in bouquets and similar decorations, just like any other garden flower. Some stalks can have a slight onion scent, but in most cases, the scent isn't noticeable to the human nose. The leaves tend to turn yellow by mid-summer. Once you see them die back on their own, you can bet that the plant is slipping into dormancy. You can cut away leaves and foliage at this point. Do not cut off the foliage after the blooms drop. The leaves still need to gather sunlight to produce energy so that the bulb can be strengthened for next season. While not strictly necessary, it can be a good idea to give the bulbs a light feeding of potash during the early spring, before you see any stems peek through the soil.  For average to good soils, this really isn't necessary. Consider doing it if your soil condition is poor, though. Potash feed will encourage root and bulb formation. It refers to...

Article in English: Allow your plants between one and one and a half inches of water per week. Broccoli likes moist soil.  You can use a rain gauge to see how much water the plants are getting naturally, and make up the difference with irrigation. Make sure not to get the budding broccoli crowns wet when watering. Doing so causes them to mold. In particularly hot or dry conditions, increase the amount of water you feed your plants. Use an organic, nitrogen-rich fertilizer when your broccoli plants begin to form new leaves. Fish emulsion works well for fertilizing broccoli plants. You can continue to fertilize the plants about once a week until they are ready for harvest. Broccoli plants have very shallow roots. If you disturb the soil you may accidentally break roots and damage your broccoli plants.  If weeds develop around the plants, suffocate them with mulch instead of plucking them from the ground to avoid disturbing the roots.  If you choose not to grow organically, you can also use a chemical pesticide to remove unwanted weeds from your garden without disturbing the broccoli roots. . You want to harvest your broccoli crowns when the buds are tightly closed and dark green. Avoid waiting until the buds begin to flower into light green or yellow flowers. Cut the crown where it meets the stem using garden shears.  See "Choosing a Variety" above for exact growing times for specific varieties. Avoid breaking the crown off. A clean cut will better encourage new growth. With a healthy cut, the broccoli plant should grow small shoots from the side of the stem. You can continue to harvest the small shoots, and the plant should produce more.

Article in English: Allowing someone else to manage your money can lead to unwanted debt, little freedom to use the money as you see fit, or a loss of financial acumen about how to handle finances. These outcomes could make you more dependent on the person managing your money, which not only makes it difficult to leave an unhealthy relationship, if needed, but also has the potential to create difficult position should that other person no longer handle the finances (e.g., due to severe illness or death). Experts say your total monthly long-term debt payments should not exceed 36% of your gross monthly income (i.e., your income before taxes, health insurance premiums, etc. are taken out). Long-term debt includes your mortgage, auto payments, student loans, and of course, credit cards.  If you exceed 36% of your gross monthly income, create a plan on how you will pay down the debt, starting with the credit lines with the highest interest rates. Possibilities include transferring balances to a lower interest rate credit line, re-designing your monthly budget to allocate more funds to debt servicing, or consolidating debt into one payment with a low interest rate. For example, if you own your own home and can re-finance, it may be possible to use the equity in your home to pay down your debt without opening another line of credit. While you pay down your credit cards, resist the urge to add more to your running total. The only way you will get out of debt is to squash the debt you’ve generated in the past. While you are paying down debt, if you don’t have the cash to cover the costs, skip the purchase.You could also use a debit card, which is equivalent to paying cash. Try not to borrow a friend or family member's money either. Make it easier to pay with cash by keeping a stash on hand at all times. However, make sure you keep your cash in a safe place. Also, make sure to build up plenty of savings so that if unexpected expenses arise (as they most likely will), you can pay out of savings rather than taking on more debt. Think about...
