Sophisticated company will improve your level of sophistication. You shouldn’t drop all of your friends at a moment’s notice just because they aren’t as sophisticated as you’d like them to be; you should, however, make a goal of hanging out with more cultured, interesting, and open-minded people so that you can improve your own level of thinking.  You can meet sophisticated people at book clubs, book readings, gallery openings and events, poetry readings, concerts, or at any art-inspired events. Being sophisticated means that you should keep your act together in public. This does not necessarily mean you never show any emotion, just that you do not fall to pieces in public. A sophisticated person gets angry with a witty retort, not by shouting obscenities. A sophisticated person may cry at a funeral, but not make a scene about it. If you find yourself getting angry in public, close your eyes and take a few deep breaths until you feel yourself returning to normal. It’s sophisticated to sip a glass of Rosé or white wine on your patio and keep up witty conversation—it’s not sophisticated to be seen stumbling around a bar, falling into stools and not being able to keep your food down. If you want to be sophisticated and have embarrassing drinking habits, then it’s time to change your ways. The next time you go out, stick to having just one or two drinks, or to drinking until you feel slightly buzzed and then stopping. If you want people to think you’re sophisticated, although it goes deep down within yourself, then people will take you seriously, and nobody takes a person who can’t hold his liquor very seriously. Though being confident isn’t the same as being sophisticated, both are qualities of people who look like they know what they’re doing. If you’re sophisticated, then you’re not immature, unsure of yourself, or generally clueless. You can demonstrate your competence by operating with a quiet confidence whenever you can. This means staying positive, showing that you love who you are and what you do, and not...

TL;DR in Russian:

Проводите время с утонченными людьми. Не теряйте самообладания. Не напивайтесь на публике. Излучайте уверенность и спокойствие. Относитесь к другим людям с уважением.


Soporific means “sleep-inducing.” For example, some foods are high in the sleep-inducing amino acid tryptophan, like cheese, chicken, soy products, eggs, tofu, fish, milk, turkey, nuts, peanuts and peanut butter, pumpkin seeds, and sesame seeds. Choose foods that have these qualities, especially for dinner.  To activate tryptophan more efficiently, favor foods that are high in complex carbohydrates but medium to low in protein. Carbs make tryptophan more available in the brain, whereas protein has the opposite effect.. Plan “meals for sleep” that load up on complex carbs and tryptophan. Try pasta with Parmesan cheese, hummus with whole wheat pita bread, peanut butter on toast, sesame seeds sprinkled on salad with tuna chunks with whole wheat crackers on the side, or a baked potato with cottage cheese. Limit the amount of food that you eat in the late afternoon and early evening, as it can affect the quality of your sleep. Lighter meals are more likely to give you a restful night, for example, whereas high-fat meals and large servings prolong the work your digestive system needs to do, and all the gas production and rumblings may keep you awake. Some people find that highly-seasoned foods (e.g., hot peppers and garlic) interfere with sleep, especially heartburn-sufferers. Avoid them if you have heartburn troubles. Coffee and other caffeinated beverages can disrupt your sleep patterns. Coffee stays inside your system for up to 8 hours after you drink it, so that cup you had in the afternoon could be keeping you up later at night. Try to go without caffeine in the later afternoon and early evening. Alcohol will also wreak havoc on your sleep patterns. When you drink, you tend to sleep lighter and fall into fewer periods of deep sleep or restorative Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep. So even if you think a drink or 2 helps you fall asleep at night, you'll likely wake up tired and not feeling rested. Research indicates that magnesium supplements may help to improve your overall sleep quality. Try taking a small dose,...

Sort through the eggs you collected and inspect them for any damage to the shell. Look for cracks or breaks where bacteria could easily get inside the egg. Get rid of all the eggs that are damaged so you don't contaminate the ones that are good. Once you clean your eggs, set them in a reusable egg carton so the larger end is face-up. If the eggs are freshly laid, you can choose to store them on your countertop at room temperature for 2 weeks or in your fridge for up to 1 month.  You can buy reusable egg cartons online. You can also put your eggs in a large bowl if you don't have a reusable egg carton.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отсортируйте треснутые и разбитые яйца. Храните яйца при комнатной температуре или в холодильнике.


Soy milk will usually begin to curdle even if you do not heat it, but to create the maximum amount of curds, you should pour the milk into a saucepan and heat over medium heat until it starts to steam. Soy milk curdles more easily than standard whole dairy milk, but if you add an acid to the soy milk without heating it first, the resulting curds will be smaller and less firm. Moreover, they will also take longer to form. If you only need the soy milk to sour or become grainy and do not need actual curds, you can skip the heating portion of this method, though. Whisk in an acid, like lemon juice, to thoroughly incorporate it. You should notice some curds beginning to form already.  Lemon juice is the recommended acid of choice for curdling soy milk. On average, you will need about 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of lemon juice for every 1 cup (250 ml) of soy milk.  Note that adding more acid will cause more prominent curds to form while adding less acid will cause smaller curds or grains to form. Remove the saucepan from the heat, if applicable. Let the acid and soy milk combination stand at room temperature for 10 minutes. If you heated the soy milk before adding the vinegar, you should notice curds beginning to form. If the curds have not reached the desired size or consistency yet, you can let the milk sit longer or return it to the heat for a few minutes. If using the soy milk curds for vegan cheese or another similar recipe, you should strain the curds through cheesecloth to separate them from the liquid whey.  Note that you may need to let the whey drain for several hours to a day, depending on how runny your curdled milk is when done. If you do not need to separate the curds from the whey, you can use the curdled soy milk without straining it.

Space the seeds about 30cm apart, or thin out the seedlings later. Hyssop needs minimal care but does appreciate a little manure and mixed fertiliser in late winter to encourage new growth.

TL;DR in Russian:

Посадите семена иссопа во влажную почву в начале весны. Держите растения политыми и без сорняков, когда растения растут.


Speak clearly and slowly, teaching them only one word at a time. Your parakeet may not know to repeat the word right away, but just keep repeating it.  Note that parakeets are best with the consonants d,t,k,p, or b. A simple phrase like "Hi, how are you?" won't help because it is hard for your bird to say it. If you don't know what word to teach your bird first, consider teaching it it's name. This is a word they have probably heard before, so the sounds should be familiar to your parakeet already. This will reinforce the behavior and also help to further the bond between you and your bird. Parakeets love millet sprays; Celery and carrots are also great treats and they provide essential nutrients for your budgie's health. However, don't try to train it for too long in one session. It's a good idea to work with your parakeet for about a half an hour a day. If you try to work with it for too long, your bird may get bored and could become less willing to learn. Keep it focused by covering three sides of the bird's cage with a cloth. Stand right in front of their cage when talking to your bird, so it knows that it is you speaking to it. Don't move onto a second word until your parakeet can say the first phrase correctly at least three times in a row. Making sure that your parakeet really knows a word before moving on will make it more likely that it will repeat the same word or phrase at a later time. Do not try to force your parakeet to talk. Many parakeets never learn to talk, but it's fun to try! Once your parakeet has mastered a few words, you can move on to full phrases. Just as with teaching it words, repeat the phrase to your parakeet when it is calm and willing to focus on you. The parakeet will be focused if you are the only one in the room,but others can cause your parakeet to be frightened. As you say a word, hold up the object. With enough practice, you should be able to just hold up the object and the parakeet will repeat the word you taught it. It will simply be repeating the sounds you made but it...

Speaking to a doctor prior to a new diet or weight loss plan is a good idea.  They may be able to give you alternative diets or suggest vitamin or minerals to supplement your diet with since you'll be avoiding or minimizing your vegetable intake.  Review your current weight, weight goals, medications and health history with your doctor. Your doctor also may be able to refer you to a local dietitian for additional help. These nutrition experts will be able to guide you on your weight loss diet.  They'll also be able to help provide you with different alternatives for vegetables.  Ask your dietitian for help designing a meal or eating plan that doesn't focus heavily on vegetables but that could still produce weight loss. To find a dietitian in your area, visit the EatRight website and click on the orange "Find an Expert" button on the top right. Setting goals for yourself with a weight loss plan can help you keep you on track and help you stay motivated.  Be specific with your goals.  You want to set goals that are specific and realistic for you.  Also give yourself an end date. Remember, a large amount of weight loss in a short period of time is not realistic or healthy.  Focus on losing smaller amounts of weight over longer periods of time. Realize that with a lack of vegetable consumption (and subsequent fiber consumption), weight loss may be slower. Set smaller goals before your long-term goals.  For example, if you want to lose 20 pounds in five months, a smaller goal would be to lose four pounds within the first month. Meal plans can help making dieting and weight loss a bit easier.  You'll have your own plan to follow throughout the week.  Having all your meals and snacks planned can help keep you organized and focused.  Spend some free time writing up an entire week's meals and snacks.  It's much easier to stick to a diet when you have a plan in place. Although you may be avoiding or minimizing the amount of vegetables that you include in your meal plan, make sure you're including all the other food...

Speaking with your healthcare provider means letting them know more about the symptoms that you’re experiencing as well as the condition history.  Remember, your doctor can diagnose the condition better if you’re detailed and do not leave any symptoms out. Be aware that your doctor may refer you to a specialist in neurology, surgery, orthopedics, or rheumatology, if needed for diagnosis or treatment. Your physician will want to assess your wrist and hand. They will press on points to find out if there is any pain or numbness in the area. They will also check for swelling, sensation, and weakness. If the pain is intense, additional tests may be needed to rule out other health conditions.  A pre-assessment where they look over the area visually is required to give indication and direction for further tests. Your doctor may also perform Phalen's test or other carpal tunnel tests in the office. Blood samples may be requested to rule out additional medical issues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, a thyroid issue, or other underlying medical problems. By ruling out these problems, your physician can better diagnose the problem. Once blood tests rule out other medical problems, additional imaging tests may be needed. Imaging tests, such as an X-ray or ultrasound, may be requested by the physician or you can request them yourself. By having these imaging scans performed, you can be in a better position to diagnose the problem and treat the symptoms.  X-ray is usually used only to aid in the diagnosis or rule out other causes of pain (such as fractures and arthritis). Your doctor may use ultrasound to visualize the structure of the median nerve in your hand. An electromyogram is a test during which multiple fine needles are inserted into the muscles to measure electrical discharges. This test can determine if there is muscle damage and it can rule out other conditions. A mild painkiller can be administered prior to the test to reduce pain. This medical conductivity test is used to detect how the nervous system is...

Specializing can definitely help you land a gig -- if you're an expert martial artist, gymnast, or rock climber, that's great. But the more you know how to do, the more likely you'll be to wow stunt coordinators and to be perfect for roles that require multiple skills. If you want to be a stunt man, then chances are, you're already experienced in a field or two. Here are the most common skills that stunt men can possess:   Fighting: Expert level skills in boxing, combat, or a martial art.  Falling: The ability to fall from a variety of heights, some of which are over three stories high, and the ability to use trampolines.

Water skills: High level skills in scuba diving, underwater stunts, or advanced swimming.  Miscellaneous sport: A superior skill level in tumbling, fencing, or wirework. If you want to sound like you know what you're talking about when you start your career as a stunt man, then you have to know the terms associated with the career. If a stunt director starts talking about wirework and you have a blank look on your face, you won't get very far. Here's what you need to know:   Wirework: The ability to expertly use rigs, harnesses, and vests to perform aerial stunts, which include flying or falling action sequences.  Tumbling: Performing gymnastics feats safely without using specialized equipment. These include front and back handsprings, somersaults, shoulder rolls, break falls, dive rolls, round-off back and front handsprings, and cartwheels.

Specific exercises to prevent clots in veins during long travel or after a major surgery are a great idea to keep blood flowing. Do 10-15 of each of the following exercises on both sides of your body:  First, do ankle rotations, in clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Second, do ankle pumps by moving your ankles back and forth, similar to pushing a pedal. Next, place your heels on the floor and rock back and forth from your heels to your toes. Then, do a series of knee ups, pumping your leg up and down to work your hip. Finally, massage your calf muscles to increase your circulation. to improve your circulation. Ask your doctor what pressure your compression stocking should have in order to help your circulation. Then, wear your stockings as recommended by your doctor. This may help prevent blood clots, especially when you're flying or after surgery. Check with your doctor to find out which type of compression stockings are right for you. Lie or sit down, then hinge at your hips to lift your leg up. Try to get your foot at least 6 in (15 cm) above your heart. This will help increase the blood flow out of your legs so that it doesn't pool and cause a clot.You might also want to massage your calf as you do this, if you can. People who do not get enough dietary intake of omega-3-fatty acids should consider taking a supplement. They are available in form of fish oils, flaxseed oils and primrose oils. Taking about 500 mg of any of these per day is sufficient. However if you have already suffered from an event due to blood clot (like heart attack), taking a double dose (i.e. 500 mg twice a day) may be more beneficial. Ask your doctor for more information. Another cause which is a potential risk factor for formation of clots is a high homocysteine level. Homocysteine is an amino acid in blood. A high level can make a person prone towards endothelial injury which facilitates clot formation. Deficiency of vitamins like Vitamin B6, B12 and Folic acid can lead to a hyperhomocysteinemia. Hence, taking a combination...

Speech and language therapies can help identify alleviate the communication difficulties faced by an autistic child, especially in respect to striking a chord and starting a conversation with others.  Speech-language pathologists have the knack and expertise to help the child understand the nuances involved in starting a conversation and keeping it alive. They can help the child acquire social skills and the ability to start a conversation. Pragmatic communication is about using language in a way that satisfies the situation and abides by the conversation's unspoken rules. Because many autistic children do not know and understand the basics of starting a conversation, it can be hard for them to acquire nuanced conversational skills of their own.  Autistic children may not know how to maintain adequate distance from the other person, make eye contact, display facial expressions consistent with their feelings, vary their tone, modify their speech based on their conversation partner (e.g. using simpler words when talking to their little brother), and more. Speech language therapists can assist the child in pragmatic language instruction, bolstering their ability to make particular speech sounds and modify their speech and tone according to the situation and audience. This is a type of therapy in which social skills can be taught in a step-wise manner. CBT uses a step-by-step approach where autistic children are exposed to highly structured activities to encourage the assimilation of social and adaptive skills.  These skills are imparted through highly structured activities in a step-wise manner for the children to assimilate and pick up. CBT can also help children handle or overcome anxiety and depression, which are common issues for autistic children. This can make them less afraid to initiate conversation, as well as improving general quality of life. This prevents them from committing mistakes and exposing himself to as many people as possible out of fear of embarrassment. Teaching, training, and practice...

Spend as much time as you can with people in your life who lift you up. These might be relatives, trusted teachers, sports teammates, club members, or friends at school or in your neighborhood. Choose people you can count on to be there for you and support you. When you need a friend or a listening ear, reach out to these people. In addition to peers, you can also include adults or mentors as part of your support. If you've dealt with your parents' emotional abuse for years, it may take a toll on you and your own emotional health. Often, emotional abuse results in feeling bad about yourself or feeling worthless or unlovable. None of these things are true. Any time you catch yourself thinking a negative thought about yourself, try to come up with a positive thought about yourself instead.  For example, if you find yourself thinking, “I can't do anything right,” stop and remind yourself of something you've accomplished, like a school assignment you did well on or a personal project that you're proud of. Talk to yourself the same way that you would talk to a good friend when they are feeling down. Maybe you enjoy sports, reading, dancing, or listening to music. Try to find time to do these things as much as you can. Consider joining a club or sports team at your school where you can do the things you love with other people who share your interests. If you're a creative person, look for communities online where you can post your writing or art. Low-key activities like watching a movie or reading a book can also help you relax and feel less stressed by the negative things that are happening in your life. It's normal to feel confused or have mixed feelings when you are dealing with emotional abuse. Even if your parents treat you poorly, you may still love them and want to protect them. However, this shouldn't stop you from getting help or talking about it with someone you trust. It's possible to get help dealing with abuse and still care about your parents. There may be days when you love your parents and days when...

Spend the first 2-3 paragraphs immersing your reader in the setting. First, place your character in the setting. Then, give a basic description of the place, and incorporate details to show the era. Give just enough information for your reader to paint a picture in their mind. You might start your story like this: “Esther pulled her medical text from the mud, carefully wiping the cover clean on the hem of her dress. The laughing boys sped away on bicycles, leaving her to walk the last mile to the hospital alone. The sun beat down on the rain-soaked landscape, turning the morning’s puddles into a dank afternoon haze. The heat made her want to rest, but she knew her instructor would use tardiness as an excuse to kick her out of the program.” Your problem will act as an inciting incident that triggers your plot and keeps your character reading. Think about what your character wants, and why they can’t have it. Then, create a scene that shows them encountering this problem. For example, let’s say that Esther’s class is going to get the opportunity to work with real patients, and she wants to be chosen as 1 of the students who gets to do it. However, when she gets to the hospital, she’s told she can only go in as a nurse. This sets up a plot where Esther tries to earn her spot as a doctor-in-training. Show your character working on their problem. To make your story more interesting, incorporate 2-3 challenges they face as they move toward the climax of your story. This builds the reader’s suspense before you reveal what happens. For example, Esther might go into the hospital as a nurse, look for her peers, switch her clothes, almost get caught, and then meet a patient who needs her help. The climax is the peak of your story. Create an event that forces your character to fight for what they want. Then, show your character either winning or losing. In Esther's story, the climax might occur when she’s caught trying to treat a patient who’s collapsed. As the hospital tries to remove her, she shouts out a correct...

Spending a day doing the things you've always loved to do together is a fun way to say goodbye. You could do something special like going to a baseball game or concert. Go out to dinner at your friend's favorite restaurant, or cook dinner at your place for a more intimate setting. If you and your friend go to the same school, have a lunchtime celebration with your other friends. Have everyone decorate your friend's locker with well wishes, and bring in treats to share at lunchtime in her honor. If you and your friend have other friends in common, give your friend a great send-off with a party. It can be a surprise or not - you know your friend best, so you decide. You could choose to have a party with a theme or just keep it simple by gathering at a restaurant for a goodbye dinner.  Tell everyone who is invited to write down a fun memory that involves your best friend. At the party, take turns reading the memories.   Bake or buy a goodbye cake to share at the party. Write WE'LL MISS YOU! with your friend's name across the top of the cake.

Spending about half an hour every other day over a 4-5 month period is reasonable. Organize your study time between maths, vocab, and grammar. Study for each section thoroughly using SAT testing aids. There are many different testing aids available; books and practice tests can be found at the SAT Preparation Center. The Economist magazine is an excellent source of articles that are just the right length. There are several online sources as well. Try to read a few every day. After taking a practice test, you should spend about the same amount of time you spent taking the test on going through your answers. Try to remember why you picked a certain answer.  See if you notice a pattern. There almost always is one. The SAT is a multi-subject text, which means that excelling in certain areas but doing poorly in others can give you a mediocre overall score. Make the most of your study time by devoting as much time as you can to the things you're not good at, rather than the things you are good at. If you're not sure how to begin addressing your weak spots, try talking to your teachers in these subjects for advice. Do you have trouble with the difficult algebraic questions? Are you in the dark about some of the more obscure grammatical rules? Study more for these areas than you would others. It is recommended that you study at least twice as long in difficult areas as you would easier ones. Understand the concepts first, then practice those concepts with problems and questions.  While memorizing can be helpful, particularly with vocabulary, it isn't the whole thing.  Understanding goes a lot further than memorization. You can't afford to spend a few minutes getting to know the calculator on the day of your test. As important as it is to prepare mentally, learning the material from front to back, it's almost as important to ensure you're emotionally prepared. A positive, focused, high-energy attitude can make the difference between whether you do good or great on the SAT. For the best chance of excelling, do...

Spending time together is a normal and expected part of friendship. Begin here as it is the best clue as to whether or not your friend is willing to make an effort in the friendship. Here are things to consider about how your friend reacts to you wanting to spend time together:  If your friend makes the time, that's a good sign. Friends make time for each other and don't act squeamish or as if they'd rather be somewhere else. Sometimes your friend may be genuinely busy and that's fine, just as long as your friend makes time to be together, when it's appropriate, such as during breaks or lunch, perhaps on a weekend, during vacation time, etc.  If your friend doesn't want to make the time or comes up with a lot of excuses every time you try, then you have a warning sign that he or she is not keen to be around you much. If you have arranged going somewhere together and your friend keeps pulling out on such arrangements, that's a telling sign too. Realize that nobody is "always busy" -- that is just an excuse showing they don't wish to prioritize you. If your friend ditches you almost all the time, and it doesn't seem like a joke, that means he/she isn't really a good friend. Tag along with them. This may seem hard but you can say, "Hey, how are things going today?" And walk with your friend. Notice his or her reaction and comfort levels. If she or he is your friend, they'll be thrilled to have you around. If she or he is not, your friend may grunt, fail to talk to you, shrug a lot and try to walk faster to get away from you. Invite your friend over and see whether or not he or she accepts the invitation. If your friend does come, is she or he being friendly with you or is she or he ignoring you and just stuffing down the cake and soda and grabbing the goodie bag while leaving early? Since you are the host or the main center of attention when it's at your place, a good friend should be spending time talking to you and being friendly. A bad friend will use the occasion to get what he or she wants out of it, then...

Spiders hide in any dark, secluded space they can find, so do your best to eliminate hiding spots in your vehicle. Throw away any garbage in your car and place all items you don't need in a plastic or reusable bag. Place the bag in the trunk and, when you have time, take it out of the car and drop it off at your home. and vacuum your car thoroughly. Spiders like to hide in dark, dirty areas. Taking the time to clean out your car can prevent spiders from finding places to live within it. Vacuum your car's floors, paying special attention to corners or any crumbs, and wipe down the interior. Try to clean out your car at least once a week to prevent infestations. Run your fingers along the rubber seals along each door and check for damage. If you notice any cracks or broken areas, hire a mechanic to repair or replace your rubber seals.  Because spiders can enter your car through small holes, rubber seals are essential for keeping spiders out. If you notice dirt or debris clogging the rubber seals, clean them with a wet washcloth to improve their efficiency. The vibrations that idling cars make disturb spiders and, while trying to escape the vibrations, may cause them to hide in your car. If possible, avoid turning your car on before you need it, particularly if your car is prone to spider infestations.  Spiders move towards, not away from, idling cars because they expect to find a "ground zero" in the car where the vibrations can't hurt them. It's comparable to seeking shelter in the eye of a hurricane. The larger your car is, the more likely that it will attract spiders while idling.

Spinach is chock full of antioxidants and other vitamins and minerals. Add spinach after the egg is hot but not yet solidified to help ensure that you don't cook the nutrients out of the spinach. Peppers are full of antioxidants and make excellent omelet ingredients, particularly when sautéed briefly beforehand. Broccoli is an antioxidant powerhouse. Sautee it, microwave it in advance, or use leftover broccoli from dinner to add a quick boost of antioxidants to your breakfast omelet. With the skin left on, red potatoes and sweet potatoes can be an excellent source of antioxidants. Mix the cooked potatoes into the omelet or serve them on the side for an added antioxidant supply in the morning.

Spinach is extremely cold-hardy and fares well in these mild to cold climate zones. This cold-weather crop prefers temperatures between 35 and 75℉ (1 and 23°C). Savoyed varieties are characterized by their dark green crinkly leaves. They are best for planting in the fall because they become especially crisp in cold weather. Smooth-leafed spinach grows upright and produces leaves lighter in color than those produced by savoy spinach. It grows quickly and easily and is the perfect addition to any summer salad.

Выращивайте шпинат в нежарком климате. Выбирайте савойскую и полусавойскую разновидности для посадки осенью. Выбирайте гладколиственный шпинат, если хотите собрать быстрый урожай.


Spirea will benefit from a good mulch in the springtime. To do this, spread a layer of compost or well-rotted manure about two inches thick across the area of ground covered by the bush’s branches. This will help retain moisture in the soil over the hotter months, keep the weeds down and, later, protect the roots from the cold as the cooler weather draws in. Over the summer your Spirea will be grateful for some water when the weather is particularly hot or dry. Keep in mind that established plants won’t need much watering most of the time apart from these hot months. Spirea tend not to have a lot of problems but can occasionally be troubled by aphid infestation. Look out for curled leaves as a sign that aphids are taking over. A blast of water from the garden hose usually works to dislodge aphids. You can also use a commercial aphid spray. Look for blackened stem tips that curl away from the plant; this is a sign of fire blight. Try to aggressively prune away the affected areas and then burn the trimmings.

TL;DR in Russian:

Насыпьте мульчу вокруг спиреи. Поливайте спирею чаще во время жарких месяцев. Оберегайте растение от тли. Остерегайтесь ожогов.


Splash your raw skin with cool water and lightly apply a gentle, scent- and alcohol-free cleanser twice each day. Cleanse more often if you notice dirt or debris on the raw areas. Pat the area dry with a clean towel to prevent further irritation. This can clear away debris or bacteria and minimize your risk of infection. Avoid scrubbing or rubbing the area too harshly, which can cause irritation. Dab on a thin layer of a protective cream, lotion or ointment that is gentle as well as scent- and alcohol-free. Use products including zinc oxide, petroleum jelly, or aloe on the raw skin and surrounding area. This may help protect your raw skin and soothe any irritation. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for the best type of protective layer for your raw skin.  Apply the ointment twice per day, or more as needed. Petroleum jelly can worsen seborrheic dermatitis, so avoid using it if you have this condition. Select a non-stick or fabric bandage manufactured for sensitive skin. Apply your choice over any raw areas, securing adhesive edges to healthy skin. This can protect the area from contact with your hands or fingers, and extreme temperatures as well as irritants and bacteria, which minimize the risk of infection. If your raw skin is a result of chafing (friction), apply a powder such as alum or cornstarch to the raw areas. Reapply the powder after showers or anytime your skin is moist. This can whisk away moisture from your skin and prevent further irritation. It may also promote healing by preventing friction. Talcum powder has been tentatively linked to cancer when used on genital areas, so avoid these products until further studies have been conducted. To allow your skin to heal and protect it from further damage, keep raw skin out of the sun. Avoid the sun during peak hours, like from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Wear clothing with long sleeves and pants as well a sun hat. Apply a water-resistant, broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or higher (only on intact, non-irritated skin) if you do need to be outdoors....

Следите за тем, чтобы кожа была чистой и сухой. Наносите на воспаленные участки успокаивающий крем. Накрывайте ранки повязкой. Обрабатывайте кожу специальной лечебной пудрой без талька. Не подставляйте кожу под солнечные лучи. Не чешите воспаленную кожу.


Split in half to make 2 loaves or make 1 large loaf. From this stage, cut each portion into 3 pieces. It's best to use a scale and calculator for best accuracy to ensure each portion is equal. You may also divide it into 4 for an even more attractive plait, but it's better with the big 1kg loaf to be made into a 4-plait. Gather the three together and pinch at one end, if desired you may tuck this seam underneath the finished plait. This is just like plaiting hair, otherwise you may look at the three portions as a simple pattern, folding one strand over another: ABC, BAC, BCA, CBA, CAB and so on until you run out of dough. You may mist with water and dip in seeds if you wish, or use an egg wash for an attractive finish. Ideally on a floured cloth or the baking tray. Bake 30-35 minutes for the smaller 500g loaves. You may also plait small rolls for an attractive finish, or even more attractive is to fold the plait in on itself to make a loop. Flatten the roll slightly and allow to proof.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте тесто. Скрутите все три части в багеты. Сплетите косу из хлеба. Подождите, пока увеличится в объеме в два раза.


Sponge painting can get messy, so some place that is easy to clean would be the best. Painting outside on a warm, sunny day is a great idea because the paint will dry faster. Your child may also find inspiration in the world around them.  Make sure that you have a table that you can work on, and that nothing that can get dirty or ruined is nearby. If you are painting outside, try a patio table. You can also have your child sit on the sidewalk. Use 2 to 3 layers of newspaper in case your child spills some paint or water. Another option is to cut up a plastic or paper bag, and use that instead. You can also use a cheap, plastic tablecloth or butcher paper. You can find cheap, plastic tablecloths in the baking or party supply section of a craft store. Even though most children's paints are washable, there is still a chance that they might stain. If your child likes to get messy, it would be a good idea to have them wear an apron or an art smock as well.  If you are using acrylic paint, then you should definitely have your child wear clothing that can get dirty. If your child is wearing a shirt with long sleeves, be sure to roll them up. If your child has long hair, pull it back into a braid or ponytail. Tempera paint, poster paint, or acrylic craft paint all work great for this. Make a blob big enough to dip the sponge into. Use 1 color of paint per palette.  Paper plates and plastic lids make perfect palette. If the paint is thick like toothpaste, stir some water into it. This will make it more spreadable and easier to soak into the sponge. Look for paints that say things like "washable" or "kids' paint." If you want to, tape down the corners of the paper, or weigh them down with smooth stones. Poster paper, printer paper, or construction paper all work just fine for this. You can even use one of those giant sketch pads instead.  If you are using a sketch pad, tear the paper out first. Otherwise, the paint may accidentally bleed through the paper and stain the next page. Another option is to use fabric. Heavier...

Spoon half of the batter into 1 of the greased cake pans and spread the rest of the batter in the other cake pan. Use the back of the spoon to evenly spread the tops. Put both pans in the oven and bake them until they become golden brown and begin to pull away from the side of the pan. To test if the cakes are done, insert a cake tester or skewer into the center. The tester should come out clean. If it doesn't, bake the cake for 3 to 5 more minutes and check again. Take the cakes out of the oven and set them on a wire rack to cool. Once they're completely cooled down, turn them out and put them onto the wire rack. Spread vanilla buttercream on 1 of the cakes and place the other cake on top. Spread more frosting on the top and sides. You can also spread rolled fondant on the top for an extra special look. If you don't want to frost the cakes, you can sprinkle both cakes with sifted powdered sugar. Cut slices of cake and serve it along with soy milk, sugar cane juice, or kunnu aya. Cover and store leftover cake in an airtight container at room temperature for 1 to 2 days or in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

TL;DR in Russian:

Spray or wipe down cords with something distasteful to the cat. There are commercial product solutions and homemade solutions. If making your own, consider using such things as hot sauce; lavender oil; a homemade citrus or vinegar paste; garlic, cayenne pepper, Vicks, dish soap, lime juice,or chili oil or paste. Some people use a light coating of sports ointments (the really strong menthol sort) or deodorant . Be sure to let the applied substance dry completely before re-plugging the cord into the wall and you'll need to reapply homemade fixes periodically. Avoid using anything salty because cats love licking salt. Commercial products include "Chewsafe™" and "CritterCord™", which are clear, flexible protective cord covers infused with a citrus-scent to keep the cat away from the cord. These are easy to add and don't require topical re-applications. Both foil and double-sided tape can work. These can be purchased from the hardware store and are easy to wrap around the cords. With the foil tape, cats dislike the alkaline taste in their mouth and will refrain from chewing anything coated in the tape. With double-sided tape, cats hate anything sticky and won't touch it. The problem with this method is that it is sticky, and therefore tricky, and will also collect a lot of fluff for you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Придайте проводам неприятный вкус. Заключите провода в защитное покрытие, которое сделает их неприятными для кота. Сделайте провода неприятными для питомца с помощью скотча.


Spray the rimmed sheet with nonstick cooking spray or line it with a piece of aluminum foil. If you don't have a baking sheet, use a large roasting pan. Arrange the florets so they're in a single layer and put the sheet in the oven. Roast the cauliflower until it's tender when you poke a piece with a fork. As the cauliflower cooks, the tops brown slightly. Return the sheet of cauliflower to the oven and roast the cauliflower until the parmesan melts. Remove the florets and serve them while they're hot. Store leftover cauliflower in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Spray the soup can with mold release or silicone spray. Put to one side. Cut the wick. Cut it at least 2 inches/5cm longer than the height of the can mold. Attach the weight to the bottom of the wick. Attach the other end of the wick to the wick holder. The wick should feel taut and when it is rested at the top of the mold, there should be no slack. Place in a double boiler and heat the water.  Heat until it reaches between 185ºF-190ºF. Then add:  The purple crayon pieces; The lavender essential oil; Then stir. Use a ladle to transfer the wax from the double boiler. Set aside to cool and harden. This will take about 3 hours. To even the base, place the candle base on a hot skillet or frying pan for a few seconds. Melt the high melting point paraffin wax in the double boiler. Melt until it reaches 200ºF to 210ºF. Paint the exterior of the candle with this melted wax. Immediately roll the candle over the baking sheet of lavender flowers. Many will instantly adhere to the sides of the candle. Let set. The candle is ready for use or it can be stored long-term.

Spray your cleaner on the bristles until they’re wet. Lather the cleaner into the stain by working the brush in small circles to loosen the stain. Wipe away the cleaner with a microfiber cloth and clean as much of the stain as you can.  Detailing brushes can be purchased from your local auto care store. Avoid skin irritation from the cleaner by wearing a pair of thin nitrile gloves. Steam cleaners use pressurized vapors to loosen dirt and penetrate the stains. Look at your local big box or home improvement stores to see if they offer rentals on steamers. Otherwise, purchase a small steam spot cleaner. Low-end steam cleaners cost around $40 USD to purchase. Use the narrow nozzle or brush attachment on your steamer. Hold it away from the stain and pull the trigger to shoot a burst of steam. Spray the entire stain so the heat and water lift it off from your headliner. Don’t oversaturate the stain with water or else you may damage the adhesive underneath the fabric. While the stain is still wet from the steam, pat it dry with your microfiber cloth. If you notice that the stain is still there, spray it with another burst of steam and work your cloth in small circles. This method works best for removing food stains or other resilient spots.

TL;DR in Russian:

Максимально удалите пятно с помощью очистителя для обивки и щетки с жесткой щетиной. Купите или возьмите на прокат пароочиститель. Распылите пар, держа носик в 5 см от пятна. Промокните пятно сухой тканью из микрофибры.


Spread your knees farther apart than you usually might, so that you have maximum access and visibility while you figure this out, or you can squat and sit like a frog on the toilet seat. Alternatively, you can stand to insert a tampon, placing one foot on a higher surface such as a toilet seat. If this works better for you, give it a shot. However, most women prefer sitting on the toilet so that any stray bleeding is contained. This is the most common hurdle first-time tampon users run into, and it can seem really daunting. Once you figure it out, though, you're set for life! Here's how to make it a little easier:  Understand your anatomy. There are three openings: the urethra (where urine exits) at the front, the vagina in the middle, and the anus at the back. If you already know where your urethra is, feel an inch or two behind it to find the opening of the vagina. Use the blood to guide you. This might sound weird, but it'll help if you're struggling. Wet a piece of toilet paper, and completely clean up all the menstrual blood in the area, from front to back (or hop in the shower and scrub down). Once everything is clear, dab yourself with a clean square of toilet paper until you find where the blood is coming from.  Ask for help. If you are really and truly lost, don't worry, as many girls before you have been here! Ask a trusted female relative––such as your mom, sister, grandma, aunt, or older cousin––to help you figure this out for the first time. Try not to feel embarrassed, and remember that every woman has been where you are now. You can also ask your doctor or nurse to help. At the midpoint of the tampon, where the smaller tube of the applicator meets the larger tube, hold it between your thumb and middle finger. Place your index finger on the end of the applicator where the string comes out. Aim toward the small of your back, and push it up a few inches until your fingers are touching your flesh. Don't worry about getting your hands dirty––menstrual blood is actually pretty clean, as far as...

Spreading out study time is crucial to success in a biology course. This technique keeps your studying disciplined and predictable.The general rule for biology courses is that you should set aside roughly two hours of study time for each hour of class. Understand what types of information you retain best. You aren't likely to have control over how the instructor lectures, but you will have control over how you study. Use this to your advantage and study the materials in the way you learn best. The recognized learning types are:  Visual - You prefer to include pictures, images, videos, etc. Auditory - You like hearing information and/or integrating music and sounds. Linguistic - You learn information when it is in the form of language (written or spoken). Kinesthetic - You are a “hands on” learner. Movement and physical touch help you retain information. Mathematical - You rely on systems of logic to learn. Interpersonal - Most of your learning occurs in a group setting. Intrapersonal - Learning alone suits you best. Research shows that cramming is ineffective. Using the same amount of study time spread over days or weeks will allow your brain to retain more information than a single cram session. Focus on one biological concept at a time, and spread out complicated processes over multiple sessions. Remember to take a study break every forty-five minutes to rest your brain.  Even just 15 minutes of studying every day can help you retain the information. Review old material each session. Use note cards for quick, on the go studying. Studying as a social activity can be very beneficial. It allows you to see different points of view on biological concepts, and different study techniques. Offer your take on things as well, you might find that you know things that others in the group have missed. In your study group, try explaining a biological process out loud to everyone while they verify what you're saying with your notes. Then, they can let you know if there are any gaps in your understanding.

TL;DR in Russian:

Составьте учебный график. Определите свой стиль обучения. Не откладывайте все на последний день. Занимайтесь в группе.


Spring and summer provide ideal fishing conditions as bass will feed closer to shore early in the morning and move out into open water around creek channels and structures later in the day.  Divide spring into 4 segments to optimize the spawning behavior. Pre-spawn, spawn, post-spawn, and late spring require different approaches.  Pre-spawn has you fishing at around 8–15 feet (2.4–4.6 m) in depth, spawn moves you up to a shallower depth towards their spawning beds, post-spawn moves you back down to 8–15 feet (2.4–4.6 m), and late spring is the optimum time to fish around structures and the shore. During winter and lower temperatures, bass will not expend much effort and will only bite when your lure is immediately within their strike zone. Bass are erratic during fall but will feed closer to shore as the temperature drops. Bass like to stay close to certain areas or hide within debris depending on the weather, time of day and which phase of their spawning cycle they are in. Vegetation, rocky bottoms, shallow flats, fallen trees, structures, bushes and grass are all great places to set your cast. Bigger bass often hang out underneath docks. Bass like to feed closer to shore in the morning and move out into open water later in the day. Fish off structures in late afternoon as bass will look for shade and deeper water.

Spring is the best time to take cuttings from last year’s Chrysanthemums. You should have cut these back after flowering the previous fall so they will still be quite short. Ahead of taking cuttings, move the outdoor plants into a cool indoor space such as an unheated (but frost-free) conservatory.  A temperature of about 45 °F (7 °C) is ideal. Do this in mid-winter, say around January. Water the plants once you bring them inside – in about a month they will have enough growth to take cuttings from, provided you keep the soil moist and the temperature around 45–50 °F (7–10 °C). Chrysanthemum cuttings can just be snapped off the parent plant with your fingers, or using a sharp clean knife.  Take fresh healthy stems of about 3 inches (7.6 cm) in length from as far down the plant as possible. Try to keep the cuttings uniform in length. Usually, only about a third of the cuttings will take, so it’s best to take three times as many cuttings as you want new plants. Remove the lower leaves from each stem, leaving only the ones at the very top. Take a plug tray or individual pots filled with a cutting compost or a compost and perlite mix. If using a mix, take 4 parts regular compost to 1 of perlite. You might like to sprinkle some more perlite on top of the compost trays. Before planting, dip the end of each cutting in hormone rooting powder to a depth of about half an inch on the cut end. Shake very gently to remove excess.  Use a slim stick, pencil or barbecue stick to make a hole in the compost. Put the cutting in the hole to a depth of about an inch and firm very gently with your fingers. Add a label with the name and date to the tray containing the cuttings and then water them. If you do this, insert some sticks into the soil to stop the bag from touching the cuttings.  Alternately, cut the spout off a clear plastic drinks bottle and invert it over the cutting to make a mini greenhouse. You can also put them into a heated propagator unit – this heats the cuttings from below, which may help them to root. Keep the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите отростки хризантемы в весеннее время. Перенесите растения в помещении за пару месяцев до того, как брать отростки. Отрежьте несколько стеблей длиной в 3 дюйма (7-8 см) с нужной хризантемы. Подготовьте смесь компоста. Посадите ростки. Оградите подносы с ростками чистым пластиковым пакетом. Держите ростки в прохладном, хорошо освещенном месте, пока они не укоренятся.


Sprinkle 1 cup (250 ml) flour into a small dish with shallow sides. Roll the freshly peeled quail eggs in the flour until each one is well-coated all the way around. Note that you could also use corn flour when dredging the eggs instead of wheat flour. Corn flour has a lower gluten content, but otherwise, it will act the same way as the wheat flour acts and will adhere just as effectively. Dilute the annatto powder by mixing it into 3/4 cup (185 ml) warm water. Stir with a whisk until dissolved.  Annatto powder is mostly used as a coloring agent, and when combined correctly, it should produce a deep orange color. It does give the batter a hint of flavor, though. If you do not have annatto powder, you can use orange food color instead. Place a few drops of orange food coloring, or a few drops of red and yellow food colorings, into the warm water and mix until you get a deep orange color. The food coloring will not give the batter the same exact taste as the annatto powder gives it, but the color should be about the same. Mix another 1 cup (250 ml) flour, baking powder, and diluted annatto together in a large bowl, using a whisk. Combine thoroughly until there are no lumps.  To improve the quality of the batter, set it off to the side for about 30 minutes before coating the eggs. Letting the batter sit allows the flour to become more thoroughly hydrated, creating a thicker, richer batter as a result. The resting time also gives the baking powder more time to activate. Be careful, though, since allowing the batter to rest for more than 30 minutes can cause some of the bubbles produced by the baking powder to escape, creating a denser, less airy batter as a result. Also note that the baking soda is not an absolutely essential ingredient. Some recipes leave it out completely. You could leave it out, as well, and the result will simply be a slightly denser batter. Toss the eggs into the batter mixture. Roll them around gently until all sides are covered in batter. If you do not want to get your fingers sticky, use...

Sprint training builds upon short, powerful bursts of speed punctuated by periods of rest. It is an excellent way to build muscle, burn calories, and raise your metabolic rate. If you are short on time and you like to run fast, you may want to try sprinting.  Sprinting is a useful skill for sports that require players to move quickly and powerfully with rests in between--football, for example, or baseball. Sprinting is a leg-heavy workout. If you begin to sprint regularly, you may significantly bulk up your thighs and calves. If you're running around a track, take one lap at a walk and another at a jog. Limber up your muscles with dynamic stretches, preparing your mind and body for the oncoming sprints. Again, don't stretch now--stretch later. Warm up your core muscles and your legs with dynamic core-building exercises like lunges and deadlifts. The length of your sprint is up to you: some prefer to sprint a specific distance, and some prefer to sprint for an allotted time. As a loose rule of thumb, try to keep your sprint to 30 seconds or less.  Sprinting is interval training--meaning intervals of speed and rest. After each sprint, rest (stand in place or walk slowly) for about a minute: roughly double the time for which you were sprinting. When you rest, stay on your feet. Continue this cycle of run-and-rest for 15-20 minutes, or until you are ready to quit. Don't go too hard at first. Sprinting is intense, and you will wear out quickly until you've been at it persistently for a few weeks. Shifting your core too far forward can lead to injury, but in increments it may make you run slightly faster. Swinging your arms in loose, controlled bursts may amplify the movement of your legs.  Use your arms for momentum. Keep them in a straight line, mirroring the movement of your legs. Keep them loose and not hunched up to your shoulders.  You may find that when you lean your core slightly forward, your body runs a bit faster to balance out your weight. This can be helpful when running uphill, but it can also lead to...

Stainless steel is a very common material found in most households. While it can look great, it can also become easily smudged and dull.  Rub on hair conditioner with a clean cloth to get your appliances smooth and shiny. When you are done, buff it off with a clean cloth. Before using any product on your appliances, always test an inconspicuous spot first to make sure there is no negative reaction. Remove smudges and fingerprints from stainless steel appliances in the kitchen. Apply to dull faucets and golf clubs to restore shine. Hair conditioner was developed to act as a protection for your hair, but it also works as a protector on metals too. Any metal area exposed to moisture in the air is vulnerable to rust. By applying small amounts of hair conditioner from time to time, you can prevent rust from forming. Use a clean cloth to rub against surfaces that easily rust, such as drains, faucets, tools, and door hinges. When you are done, wash them clean with water. Snow and salt can eat away at leather boots, but hair conditioner can help protect them and restore moisture that may have been lost. By rubbing hair conditioner on shoe leather, it can create a protective coat that keeps salt from absorbing into your shoe which causes discoloration. Use a clean rag to work tiny amounts of conditioner into the leather, and be sure to get the entire surface. Wipe away any excess hair conditioner that doesn't absorb into the leather.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отполируйте нержавеющую сталь. Предотвратите появление ржавчины. Не дайте соли погубить вашу обувь.


Stalking is about control.  If your partner has been trying to control you, he is more likely to continue doing so after you have broken up. Some of these signs include:  Regularly belittling you, putting you down, or discouraging your dreams and personal growth. Trying to cut you off from your friends and family. Instead, he always tries to keep you near him. Getting jealous when you do something without him, especially with others. Constantly checking up on you, wondering where you are and what you are up to. This certainly isn’t a guarantee that you will be stalked, but it can be a warning sign that your ex might try after the break-up. There should be no doubt in your mind that you have ended the relationship with this person. The important thing is that there can be no confusion that you do not want to see this person anymore.  While you may be tempted to let your ex down easily, you need to be firm and clear that you want to end the relationship. A potential stalker will use any potential opening as an excuse to continue following you, so don’t give one.  If you are fearful of the other person’s reaction, make sure to break up in a public place. While this generally isn’t a nice idea, you shouldn’t be alone if you are concerned for your safety. Your security comes first. This means phone calls, emails, texts, and any other forms of communication. Aside from cutting your ex off and not giving her a way to track you, it will also help you get past the relationship. This includes social media. Delete pictures or other items of the two of you together and block your ex. This will help prevent her from stalking you, and make it easier to move on by removing the means to stalk her in response. You and your significant other probably shared keys and other items as a way to stay close. Now that you have broken up, get your keys back. You don’t want to give her any access to you or your things. If you aren’t going to be able to get your keys back, it is a good idea to change your locks. You shouldn’t allow such...

Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart. Either use a squat rack with a barbell or hold dumbbells in your hands over each shoulder. Lean forward slightly, keeping your head back, and bend your knees until your thighs are parallel with the floor. Do not let your knees go past your toes. Slowly rise to the starting position. Do six to eight reps and three to four sets. Rest for about 45 seconds in between sets. For this exercise, you may either use a Smith Machine, a barbell, or two dumbbells. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and, using an overhand grip, slowly lower the weight down and return it to the starting position, focusing the work on your hamstrings and lower back.  Do six to eight reps and three to four sets. Rest for about 45 seconds in between sets. To increase the difficulty of this exercise, bend at the waist, grasp the weights, rise to a standing position, then pull the weights up to your chest and press them over your head. Lower them back to your chest, then lower them to your sides, bend at the waist and rest them back on the floor. Place your hands on a fixed bar. For pull-ups, have your palms facing away from you; for chin-ups, have your palms facing you. Lift your body with your legs crossed behind you until your chin is higher than the bar, then slowly lower your body back to the starting position.  Do six to eight reps and three to four sets. Rest for about 45 seconds in between sets. To increase the difficulty of this exercise, wear a weighted belt around your waist. Increase the weight as you gain strength. Lay on an exercise bench with your feet flat on the floor. Hold a barbell or two dumbbells in resting position at your chest. Press the weights over your head, extending your arms and straightening your elbows. Lower the weights back to your chest. Do six to eight reps and three to four sets. Rest for about 45 seconds in between sets.

Standing up for yourself or simply speaking up when you have something to add to a conversation shows that you are confident. If you lack confidence, you might find it hard to be assertive. By building up your assertiveness, you will also feel more confident and others will be more likely to perceive you as a confident person. Part of being assertive is believing that you have a voice that deserves to be heard. Think about the reasons why people should hear, believe, and respect what you have to say. Try keeping a diary to record your thoughts and feelings about failing to assert yourself. Consider the ways that not asserting yourself might be holding you back in your social, academic, and professional life. If you have a hard time asserting yourself, there may be situations that make asserting yourself even harder. Think about what those situations are and why they make it so hard to speak up or stand up for yourself. Write about the situation and what you would like to change in the future.  Describe the situation and people involved. Where and with whom do you have trouble asserting yourself? Describe how it makes you feel. How does it make you feel when you cannot or do not assert yourself? Describe what you would like to change. What would you like to change about the way that you react in these situations? Before you begin asserting yourself in situations that are challenging for you, take some time to practice asserting yourself. You can practice by yourself or with a supportive friend. Start by role-playing some simple situations where you must assert yourself and then move on to more difficult situations. One way that you can assert yourself is to repeat a statement over and over again in a calm, even tone.  For example, imagine you have a friend who keep demanding that you to go to a party with her on a weeknight and you do not want to go because you are tired and not feeling well. You could simply say to her, “I do not want to go to the party. I want to stay home and rest.” Remember to speak in a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Staphylococci, more commonly referred to as “staph,” are gram-positive cocci in clusters. The “gram” in gram-positive refers to the gram stain pattern of the bacteria when viewed under the microscope. The “cocci” indicates the shape when viewed under a microscope.  This types of bacteria usually invades the body through a cut or wound.   Staph aureus is the most common type of staph infection. Staph aureus may cause pneumonia, food poisoning, skin infections, blood poisoning, or toxic shock syndrome. MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) is a staph infection that is hard to treat. MRSA does not respond to some antibiotics and it is thought that the strain developed in response to antibiotics. Therefore, many doctors will not prescribe antibiotics unless it is absolutely necessary. Streptococci, more commonly referred to as "strep," are gram-positive cocci in chains and a common type of bacteria. Streptococci cause strep throat, pneumonia, cellulitis, impetigo, scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, acute glomerulonephritis, meningitis, otitis media, sinusitis, and many more infections. Escherichia coli, or E. coli, is a gram-negative rod, that is found in the waste material of animals and humans. There is a large, diverse group of E.Coli bacteria. Some strains are harmful, but most strains are not. E.Coli can cause diarrhea, gastrointestinal infections, urinary tract infections, respiratory infections, and other infections. Salmonella is a gram-negative rod that can disrupt the digestive tract. Salmonella can cause severe illness and it usually requires a lengthy antibiotic treatment. Raw or undercooked poultry, meat and eggs can contain salmonella. Haemophilus influenzae are gram-negative rods. Haemophilus influenzae is transmitted by air so it is highly contagious. It can cause epiglottis, meningitis, otitis media, and pneumonia. This bacteria can cause a severe infection that may lead to a lifelong disability. It can even be fatal.  Haemophilus influenzae is not covered by the common “flu shot,”...

Start Word and open the document by clicking "File" → "Open." Any document can be converted into a PowerPoint. Know that you will need to copy and paste in pictures by hand. In order for PowerPoint to know where to divide up slides, you need to divide up the information. In the line above each list, paragraph, or sentence you want as a separate slide, write a title for the slide, such as "First Quarter Numbers" or "Works Cited." This will become the large, bolded text at the top of each PowerPoint slide. Click on the "Home" tab in the upper left corner of Word. Along with your toolbar at the top of the screen, you should see a large box labeled "Styles." In it are several formatting examples labeled "Normal," "No Spacing," "Heading 1," etc. " You will have to format each title individually. The text will become large, bolded, and colored blue -- and PowerPoint will use this format to determine the slide titles. " Hit the "enter" key to put a space between every block of text that you want separated. Now, highlight the text and select "Heading 2" on the "Styles" menu. Your text will turn blue. Every individual line or paragraph will be a different bullet on your final slide. Bulleted sections will remain in the same slide if they are formatted as "Heading 2." " If you assign something to "Heading 3," it will appear indented to the right and on a separate line. The PowerPoint slide would appear like the following: Text formatted with "Heading 2" Text formatted with "Heading 3" Hit "Enter" before each new title. This creates the outline for PowerPoint. Each large, bolded line indicates a title and the small blue text underneath is the content of your slide. If there is a space, then another title, PowerPoint will separate this into a new slide. Once you've set up the outline you can change the size, color, and font of your text, which will convert to PowerPoint. The text no longer needs to be blue or bolded -- it has already been coded for conversion to PowerPoint  If you delete the spaces between lines or try...

Start by applying a base color to your paper using firm pressure. Now, layer the second color over the base using the broad side of your pastel. For example, if you're drawing a sun, draw a layer of yellow as your base. Afterward, apply a layer of red over half or all of the yellow to create a unique orange-red mix. Experiment with various pressures as you add your layers. For example, make the first layer of your sun a mild yellow by applying it with light pressure. Now, add some light layers of orange and red to create different hues. After creating 2 thick overlays of different colors, scratch line designs on the top layer with a painting knife, comb, or needle to reveal the bottom. This technique works best when the final layer is a dark color, such as gray or black.  Use this technique to add line colors to your final design. For example, if you created a pear design with a final layer of dark green, scratch lines to reveal the lighter green beneath it. Experiment with various kinds of tools, such as a paperclip or toothpick, to create different kinds of revealing effects. Layer 3 to 4 colors to reveal more by scratching. Once you're comfortable with basic blending, start drawing some images to work with. Start simple and draw outlines first. Try simple objects like a sun, tree, or apple. Try your first sketches in pencil. Once you get more comfortable, start drawing outlines in oil pastel. When outlining in pastel, remember to apply a light amount of pressure and draw with the tip—not the broad side.  Break complex objects into shapes like circles, squares, and triangles. Don't use black for your outline, as it will ruin the purity of colors applied over it. Draw an image on a piece of paper, such as a flower. Cut out the image and place the stencil on your pastel paper. Now, color along the edges of the stencil to create a thick image outline just outside of its outer edge. Alternatively, place the shape you cut from the stencil onto your pastel paper and color over the edges to create a drop-out...

Start by cleansing your face with the gentle cleanser (normal to dry skin) or foaming gel (normal to oily skin).  This cleanser is designed to remove everyday dirt, grime, and makeup from your skin.  The cleanser will leave you with a clean and fresh complexion. Use the cleanser twice a day, once during your morning routine and again during your nighttime routine.

Start by clipping off both feet as close as possible to the body as possible, using wire cutters or a sharp knife. It usually works best to use something with a scissor-action, so you can lop them off quickly and cleanly. Some people choose to toss the feet, but you can hang on to them and use them for making stocks and broths if you want to be especially resourceful. With your clippers, clip the joint where the wing meets the body, as close as possible. Then, use a sharp knife to run along and separate the rest of the skin connecting the wing to the body. Then, do the same thing to the other wing.  Alternatively, you can also clip the wings at the middle joint, just after the long feathers end, if you want to retain the top-most connective tissue where the wing meets the body. There's not much meat there, but there is some. If you do this, clip the joint, then run your knife back down along the wing toward the bird's "armpit." If you want to skin your bird in the field, but need to leave the wings on for ID purposes, read the section called "Breasting Out Ducks Quickly." You can skin the duck, but leave the wings on very easily. On a sturdy, flat surface, lay the duck down on its back and feel for the breastbone. The easiest way to start peeling the skin away is to start with your fingers, just where the bone pokes up. You don't have to pluck the feathers before you do this, but some hunters prefer removing some of the chest feathers to get out of the way before you start skinning. That's fine, but you'll only need to remove a few before you can get a finger on the skin, making it easier to do all at once. It's likely you'll have to dig in there, and you'll probably pull some feathers free before you get the hang of it. That's fine, just try to get a finger on the skin itself and start to open it up. Pull the skin in opposite directions, like you were removing it's jacket. Alternatively, some like to hold the duck so the back is facing your chest, and use the tips of the fingers to tear into the skin and...

TL;DR in Russian:

Start by eliminating any pressure and exposing the blister to the air. You want to make sure nothing rubs against it, or presses down on it. Exposing it to the air allows it to start healing naturally. If it is not under any pressure, it will stay intact and the chances of it tearing or bursting and becoming infected are lessened. Ice packs can be applied to the area for 10 to 30 minutes at a time. You can do this to reduce the pain and to cool it if it is warm and throbbing. Icing the blister can be done regularly too, not just immediately after the injury.  Don't place ice directly on the skin, since this can cause a cold burn. Instead, place a towel between the ice and the skin to protect the injured area. It may be enticing, but popping the blister can lead to infection and delay the body's natural healing process. If the blood blister is in a place that normally gets pressure, try not to put extended pressure on it.

TL;DR in Russian:

Уменьшите давление на мозоль. Приложите к мозоли лед (сразу после травмы), если она болит. Ни в коем случае не протыкайте кровавую мозоль.


Start by making a list of the belief that you have about yourself, and consider how each one of these beliefs was formed. Then, work on identifying behaviors that come from those beliefs and work on refuting them. For example, if your dad has told you repeatedly that you’re not smart, then you may have accepted this. This belief may have affected your grades. You can refute this belief by asking for additional help with subjects that have been challenging for you and by improving in these areas, you can show yourself that you are smart. Unloading your thoughts and feelings onto a sheet of paper can be cathartic, giving you an outlet for pent-up emotions. Deal with any unresolved feelings about your father by writing a letter.  Write out everything that you have ever wanted to say to him in as much detail as possible. After you’ve finished writing, read the letter aloud to yourself as if you were sharing it with him. Then, destroy the letter by burning it or tearing it to shreds. This exercise is designed to help you heal, so delivering the letter is not required. However, if you’d like to send it, go for it. There are many negative effects of having a father who is physically or psychologically absent, such as poor future relationships and mental health problems. Counter these effects by nurturing yourself with regular self-care. Self-care can be anything that helps you feel nurtured. Try watching your favorite movies or TV shows, going for a quiet walk in nature, or massaging away the tension in your shoulders. Feeling unloved or alienated by your father can result in self-hatred and  low self-esteem. To counter these emotional problems, make an effort to highlight your personal strengths. Doing so can help you feel more self-confident despite lacking needed support from your dad.  Sit down and make a list of all the things you’re good at. If you have trouble coming up with strengths, ask a close friend to help you. Post your list on your mirror so that it’s always visible. Add to it when you discover more...

TL;DR in Russian:

Start by making bullet points to cover the main things you want to say. Include the phrases you plan to use to introduce yourself, some information about your experience, and the type of position you’re seeking. If you need to write a script, use words and expressions that reflect the way you really speak so you’ll sound natural.  Introduce yourself. Use your full name. For example: “Good morning, Ms. Smith. My name is John Doe.” Discuss your accomplishments if they’re pertinent to your inquiry. For example: “I am an experienced web designer and IT specialist with ten years experience, looking for new challenges.” Say why you’re calling. For example: “I would appreciate a minute of your time to ask about vacancies in your IT department.” In preparation for the call, list the questions you have about the company. For example, you might ask about the types of positions that are available in your field and the best ways to follow up with an application. Inquire about other information that the company might need from you.  Also think of questions you think you might be asked and prepare your answers for those questions. For example, you may be asked why you’re applying with them, where you heard about the company, when you’d be available to interview or start work, and what salary range you’re looking for. Sit down in a quiet place with your script and list of questions and practice making the call. Try different ways to phrase things so that what you’re saying sounds natural. Time yourself to see how long it takes and try to keep your main points under a minute.  Practice speaking clearly. Also practice smiling when you speak. This will help you sound more confident. Record yourself and listen to how you sound. Fix anything you don’t like about how you sound, like saying “um” a lot or speaking too quickly or in a monotone.

Start by opening the Spotify app, which can be found either on your home screen or in your app drawer. The “Your Library” tab is on the right side of the navigation bar and has an icon that looks like albums on a shelf. Tap on this icon. The “Your Library” section has a number of options at the top, but scroll down to find the “Recently Played” section. This section displays artists, albums, and playlists you've recently listened to. Find something you want to keep private and select the three vertical dots located to the right of it. A menu will pop up with a variety of options. Scroll down to find the “Hide” option and select it. After doing this, the music in question will now be hid from your “Recently Played” section.

Start by painting it a deep gray-blue. Here’s a color chip you can use as a reference.  The BBC approved Tardis blue is actually Pantone 2955C. Be sure to mask off the windows, unless you want them blue too! When the paint has dried, add a door handle.  You can also add a magnetic latch to secure the door, or a stop on base and roof so that it can’t be pulled outward. Finish the inside. Gold paint would be a good choice. Add a panel across the top that says Police Public Call Box on the outside edges of the ceiling. It is white lettering on a black background. The panel on the front of the TARDIS reads as follows: Safe travels!

Start by reading the poem to yourself. Keep a pencil or pen nearby so you can underline, star, or mark any lines that you like or that stand out to you. You may also underline or circle any words or phrases that you find confusing or unclear. You can then return to these notes later to help you analyze the poem. Your first reading should be treated as an introduction to the poem. Instead of trying to understand the full meaning and form of the poem, you only need to briefly familiarize yourself with it. On your second reading of the poem, read it aloud. Read slowly in your normal voice and take your time to read each word. You may read a line over again that you find unclear or confusing. Listen to how the language sounds when read out loud. Consider if it sounds different when read out loud versus when read in your head.  If there are any commas or periods in the poem, you should view them as pauses. Pause after each comma or period when you read the poem out loud. Punctuation is important and put in the poem intentionally by the poet for a reason. If there are any line breaks in the poem, where there are spaces or gaps between lines or words, take the breaks as a pause. Slow down when you read the line breaks and leave pauses when required. Depending on the popularity of the poem, you might be able to find an audio recording of the poet or another individual reading the poem aloud. You can listen to such recordings, but read along silently as you do instead of listening passively. Most poems will have a certain rhythm and meter, where they are written in a specific pattern. Reading the poem aloud will help you listen for the rhythm and meter of the poem. The only type of poetry that does not have a clear rhythm and meter is free verse poetry. All other types will have some kind of pattern you can follow.  Consider if the poet uses rhyme in the poem. Does the poem rhyme at the end of each line? Every other line? You may try noting the rhyme scheme of the poem to help you determine the form. The rhyme scheme...

Start by running some water lightly over your dreadlocks in the shower. There's no need to completely saturate them, as the more water your locks absorb, the harder it will be for the shampoo to infiltrate them. For best results, use warm (not too hot) water. Squeeze a modest amount of shampoo into your palm. It's better to use a little shampoo at a time so you can control how much soap actually goes into your locks—you can always use more later if it's not enough. If you're using a solid bar shampoo, rub it between your hands until it forms a rich lather.  Always use a shampoo that doesn't leave a residue of any kind. Dreadlocks should not be maintained using gels, waxes and other additives, and a residue-forming shampoo will likewise only add to buildup rather than washing it away. Look for natural, organic types of shampoo that are free of chemicals which help soften and style. Press both hands into your scalp and distribute the shampoo into the spaces between the roots of the dreadlocks. Use the tips of your fingers to give your scalp a good scrub to free dead skin and remove excess sebum. Don't neglect to clean and care for the roots. Since this is where your dreadlocks attach, they need to be strong and healthy. Let the shampoo sit for 1-2 minutes. Then, tilt your head downward so that the lather runs through your locks as you rinse. Gently squeeze the shampoo lather into the dreadlocks. Make sure that there's no shampoo residue remaining in your hair when you're finished washing. If you want, you can use a little extra shampoo to touch up each lock individually. Just don't overdo it, or it will be more time-consuming to rinse and cause loose hairs to frizz. After you get out of the shower, you'll want to make sure that you let your dreadlocks dry completely. Squeeze each lock with a towel to press out the water absorbed into them. Allow your locks to air dry, or use a hair dryer on a low heat setting to speed the process along and ensure that they're not left damp. If too much moisture remains in the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Start by setting small, achievable goals, deciding on 1-2 things you want to accomplish each day or week. Pair this with a few long-term goals that give you something to strive for. Then, put your nose to the grindstone and work as hard as you can to achieve them.  Working to achieve your goals can be difficult, but the more you practice and feel the accomplishment that comes with it, the easier it’ll be. Try short-term goals like completing projects at work or school a few days before they’re due, making a new dish for dinner every week, or going for a short walk every day to get fit. Tough people are able to use their mistakes as opportunities for growth, and become a more resilient, successful person because of it. Instead of punishing yourself for a mistake, take a step back and look at what happened, what you did wrong, and what you can do to avoid doing the same thing next time. Don’t waste energy feeling sorry for yourself or making excuses. Own up to your mistakes and have the confidence that you’ll be able to make things right. If you want people to think you're tough, do your best to stay positive and face difficult situations without complaining. Complaining is a waste of time and makes you sound whiny and ineffective. Act like the strong, purposeful, confident person you are. You'll inspire others to want to be more like you.  If you need to let off steam (we all do sometimes), do it privately. Write your thoughts down or channel your pent-up energy in a positive way, like through working out. Sharing negative feelings isn't the same as complaining. Instead of whining, try saying something like, “I don’t think this is the best way to do this project. Why don’t we try it this way?” Offer different solutions and be receptive to others’ thoughts, too. Resist the urge to worry. Sharing your worries often will convey a lack of confidence in yourself to others. Think about what you're running away from or avoiding, and make the effort to face it head-on instead. Leave behind any escapist habits you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Start by soaking the item in lukewarm water mixed with dishwashing detergent and vinegar. In a quart of water, add a tablespoon of water and a 1/2 teaspoon of dishwashing detergent. Mix together, and add the piece of clothing.  Let the clothing soak in the solution for about 15 minutes. Rinse the clothing out at the end. If the stain remains, repeat the steps again before you dry the fabric. Drying the fabric with the stain could set the stain permanently, so you want to make sure the stain is gone before you dry it. Once the stain is gone, dry the clothing normally.  One way to check the stain is to smell it. If it still smells like beer, wash it again. Also, look for discoloration. If the fabric is still discolored, you need to wash it again.
