The males have hemipenal bulges below the vent whereas females do not.  Males and females both have a V-shaped row of scales above the vent but only the male's scales here are hollow and produce wax.  This wax is for scent marking their territory.  It's best to check yourself to ensure you have a male and female, rather than trust people at a large pet store.  Smaller specialists or Reptile show people typically will know their stuff. Never house two males together or they will fight to the death. Geckos can be kept together without the need to separate them unless you see major aggression.  It is sometimes normal when first introducing a male and female for there to be a little squabbling but this usually stops within the first week.  For a pair you will need at least a 20 gallon (75.7 L) long tank. You may also choose to house one male with 4-5 females, add 10 gallons (37.9 L) of space for each additional gecko. You can use a plastic sandwich container with a lid for this purpose.  Cut an entry hole on one side and fill it with damp moss (This can be used as the moist hide too).

TL;DR in Russian:

Вам понадобятся самец и самка леопардового геккона. Подготовьте место для совместной жизни самца и самки. Подготовьте инкубатор и обустройте место для откладывания яиц. Убедитесь, что у Вас есть клиенты, которые в будущем купят детенышей.


The manicure will make you want to not bite your nails due to how nice they look. Not to mention, having nail polish on may push back the urge to bite your nails, since you don't want to bite into nail polish or ruin your manicure. Once your nails are in great shape, you should focus on keeping them that way, and the best way to show off your shiny new nails is to get a manicure. A simple manicure can help maintain your healthy nails, and so will keeping them relatively short and preventing yourself from biting them more. If you have any surplus growth, cut your nails back. Keep clippers with you at all times. You can't bite if there's nothing there. Many nail-biters do not have "moons" on the base of their fingernails because their cuticles have not been pushed back. To do this, gently push your cuticles towards your finger to reveal more of your nail. This is easier to do after a shower when your hands and nails are wet. This makes the nail appear longer, and it gives a more attractive shape, which might also be a motivation to stop biting. A healthy diet will help you feel better overall and will help your nails repair and grow well. Eat calcium and magnesium rich foods so that your nails will repair and grow well. Not only that, but most of the reason that the human body wants to bite nails is a lack of calcium and magnesium in the body. The body needs that material back. Don't be afraid to show off your new nails to your friends, or even to people you don't know very well. Show them your hands and say, "Can you believe I used to have a nail-biting problem?" Take photos of your hands and enjoy how good they look. You can even hang them up, or hang them next to a photo of your ragged "before" nails to show that you are capable of making big changes in your life.

TL;DR in Russian:

Старайтесь делать маникюр как можно чаще. Старайтесь ходить с относительно короткими ногтями. Время от времени отодвигайте кутикулу. Следите за своим питанием. Хвастайтесь своим успехом.


The meat in this section is generally more expensive than the packaged meats. However, the meat behind the deli counter is usually fresher and of higher quality than the packaged meats. When you buy bacon at the deli counter, you can ask the butcher to cut it as thick as you like it. This cut comes from the pork belly meat that’s closest to the bone. This bacon is lean and meaty with almost thirty percent less fat than regular bacon.  However, this cut of bacon is generally the most expensive. If you buy prepackaged bacon, look for the center-cut options. Many brands of prepackaged bacon also carry center-cut bacon. The staff behind your meat counter will be able to tell you about the best bacon they have. Always be polite and try to remember their names whenever you visit the grocery store. If you build a good relationship with them they may even set aside the best cuts of bacon for you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите бекон в мясном или гастрономическом отделе продуктового магазина. Берите вырезку. Познакомьтесь с мясником.


The microwave will heat the butter from the outside in, so chop the butter into several pieces to increase the surface area that can be heated. This will reduce uneven heating, although you still shouldn't expect perfectly even heating in a microwave. Place the butter into a microwave-safe dish, then cover with a paper towel. Butter may splatter during the rapid melting a microwave causes. The paper towel should protect the microwave's interior from these splashes. Microwave ovens are much faster at melting butter than the stovetop, but also much more likely to cause burning, separation, or other problems. Start out cautiously by setting the microwave to "low" or "defrost" if possible, then microwave your butter for ten seconds. The butter has most likely not melted by now, but because butter melts at a relatively low temperature, each ten second interval can have a dramatic effect. Stir to evenly distribute the heat and see if there are any chunks.  Note: remember to remove silverware from the bowl before returning it to the microwave. Replace the paper towel and zap the butter for another ten seconds, or five seconds if the butter is nearly done. Keep checking on progress until there are only tiny chunks remaining. Remove the dish carefully from the microwave, as it may be hot. The tiny pieces remaining can be melted with the residual heat. Stir the butter until the entire dish is golden and liquid. Butter with greasy droplets or white residue on the surface has been microwaved too long. It can still be used for sautéing  or adding flavor to savory dishes, but may negatively affect the texture of baked goods.

TL;DR in Russian:

The more distractions there are, the more difficult it will be for you to hold your dog's attention while training. At the age of 9 weeks, most expert trainers begin exposing to livestock in a safe, fenced in area. This way your puppy can become more comfortable with your chickens. This is especially important for male dogs. Without neutering, male dogs can suffer from aggression and distracted behavior. By limiting the aggressive hormones of your dog by getting it fixed, your pup's chicken guard training will go much more smoothly. If you are rushed, you may get more easily irritated than normal with your puppy's progress, which can have a negative impact on training. Interruptions, too, like your cell phone, can lead to confusion during a training session. Your dogs should know all basic commands, like sit, down, come, and stay before you allow your grown (or growing) dog to go toe-to-talon with your chickens. These can most effectively be trained through short training sessions that use positive rewards paired with clear, succinct commands. The most important command, however, in the vocabulary of a poultry protector is probably: leave it.  The leave it command can be trained with meat, cheese, or some other kind of treat. Collect a goodly amount of treats, and then place your dog into position. Place a treat in front of your dog and command him to leave it. When the dog makes his move for the meat, block it with your hand and give a firm, negative response, like "Ah" or "No." When your dog appears to have lost interest in the temptation, reward your him with a different piece of meat from your other hand. Move the temptation closer and repeat this process. It might take a while before your dog learns anything more than sit, but alternating between commands quickly can be fun for your dog while further entrenching the command. Alternate between sit and down or sit and come to train your puppy as you play.

TL;DR in Russian:

Дрессируйте собаку в управляемой среде. Кастрируйте или стерилизуйте собаку, когда придет время. Дрессируйте собаку при минимальном количестве отвлекающих факторов. Обучите собаку основным командам. Закрепите базовые команды.


The more in-control your child is over her nighttime environment, the less likely it is she will be afraid of monsters. Recognize and reward your child when she faces her fears, like when you investigate the closet together. Try doing this together every night and, as she becomes less anxious, have her search the closet on her own, but while you are still in the room. Practice building bravery slowly and gradually.  When your child successfully faces her fears, praise and encourage her bravery. For instance, you could say something like: "Whoa! You are so brave! You checked that closet all by yourself; I bet you could handle any scary situation!" or "I'm proud of you for spending the whole night in your own room!"  It may be helpful to come up with a plan for what to do if you aren't there, such as when your child wakes from a nightmare. This plan might include teaching your child calming techniques, such as breathing deeply (ask her to imagine filling her lungs like a balloon, then let the balloon deflate), or visualization (she can imagine she is somewhere else that is calming and soothing, such as floating on a cloud. Your child can use a stuffed animal as a tangible reminder that he is safe. Tell your child to squeeze or stroke the animal when he is scared and focus on how soft, warm, and safe the stuffed animal is. This helps teach your child to self-soothe.  Assign the animal a job: to remind your child that monsters aren't real. Tell your child that, whenever he is scared, he can touch the animal to remind her of what is real. He can say, "This stuffed animal is real. Monsters are not real." It may also be helpful to use visualization again. Your child could imagine that mom, dad, or an older sibling is right there in the room with her. Instead of focusing on the monsters, focus instead on what will make the child feel safe. A night light? Leaving the door open? Brainstorm with your child to find a solution that will not encourage her fear.

TL;DR in Russian:

Позвольте ребенку почувствовать контроль над ситуацией. Дайте ребенку компаньона. Обсудите с ребенком, что заставляет его чувствовать себя в безопасности.


The more like-minded people you meet, the greater your chances of those people being or introducing you to the woman of your dreams. Besides co-ed leagues, you might take a class at a community center in an area you've been interested, like:  Cooking Creative writing Dance Photography Painting Stand-up comedy Having a shared history can form a strong bond between you and your potential future wife. You might reconnect with an old friend or classmate at reunions or through Facebook. Glance through profiles and alumni announcements, see where your childhood acquaintances are, and consider reaching out to a few you think you might pair well with. Having a shared background, it should be relatively easy suggesting to her that you catch up over some coffee, or maybe grab a bite to eat. Weddings are joyful gatherings where many invitees thoughts turn toward their own marital status, making weddings a great event to find a marriage oriented partner. Invite single women you meet at weddings to dance, and then when the night is over, give her your card and suggest meeting up again. Volunteer work has many health benefits, like lessening chronic pain and decreasing your chances of heart disease, but will also put you in contact with like minded individuals. This usually translates to a strong base upon which you can build a relationship and, from there, a marriage. You might find your wife-to-be volunteering at:  A community garden. A local community event, like a festival. A community betterment project, like a community clean-up. The kind of events you're likely to go to will also attract women who hold similar interests. Most people go to these kind of gatherings for the purpose of socialization, which could make it easier for you to find your match. If you are shy and think you might have difficulty going it alone, you might:  Meet women at a community cookout Socialize with the fairer sex at local music/art shows Attend community festivals and celebrations

TL;DR in Russian:

The more mentors you can get a hold of, the better. You'll gain a clearer understanding of what it's like to be a nun and the different communities and lifestyles you could soon be a part of. If you don't have access to a group, go to your parish and seek out information from your priest or those active in your church community. There are three general types of religious communities to choose from: contemplative communities and traditional and non-traditional apostolic communities.  Contemplative communities focus on prayer. Their lifestyles are more serene, meditative, and insular than their apostolic counterparts. Traditional apostolic communities work in education and healthcare. Many nuns can be found teaching in area schools or helping at hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Non-traditional communities also do service for others, but can be found working with the homeless, incarcerated, or those with HIV/AIDS. The last place you thought would be on the edge of technology would be convents, but even they're stepping it up! Some even have songs to download and blogs to read!  Vision Vocation Network is a Chicago-based network that is leading the "virtual discernment" phenomenon. Their counterpart is Vision, the magazine.  Vision Vocation Match helps those in discernment find communities that are right for them. Think of it as online dating, but for to-be-sisters and brothers looking for the right "home."  Catholics on Call is also based out of Chicago and holds retreats and workshops to meet and network with other prospective candidates and seasoned experts on the sisterly scene.  Out of New York City is the Sisters of Life. The vocation director will respond directly to your email if you're curious about what you see on their site. Hundreds do it each year.  A Nun's Life is a blog that is aimed at women in the thinking stages of becoming a nun. It does a good job of spelling out the process, requirements, and details of, well, a nun's life. Once you've started networking in person and online, you'll...

The more often you brush your dog's teeth, the more it will get accustomed to your hands in and around its mouth. This will make brushing easier over time.  Brushing your dog's teeth every day is ideal. It will help to prevent periodontal disease that can lead to pain and dangerous infections.  If your dog has loose teeth, seems sensitive around its mouth, or is bleeding orally, consult a veterinarian before you continue brushing.  Start slowly and try to work up to daily brushing. If you are unable to brush every day, try to brush as often as possible.

TL;DR in Russian:

Приучите питомца к чистке зубов.


The more platforms you use, the more exposure you will get and the more connections you will make. Set up accounts on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and Snapchat.  You may have personal accounts set up already, but consider making separate accounts—like a Fan Page on Facebook—specifically for your artist profile. If you like to write, consider blogging. It’s a great way for your fans to get a more in-depth look of your journey. With over 1 billion site visits per month, having your own YouTube channel is an easy way to get yourself more exposure by reaching a global audience. Once you create your channel, share it with your family and friends and on your social media accounts. Ask everyone you know to support you by sharing your link as well. Visit a professional recording studio or make your own home studio to record a few of your best songs. You can put your demo on CDs, flash drives, or an online playlist. Give your demo to club DJs, local radio stations, and recording studios and labels. Sharing your music digitally will give people across the world access to stream, download, and purchase your music. You can even get paid royalties for it!  LANDR, CD Baby, Ditto Music, Record Union, Reverbnation, and iMusician are a few distributors you can look into. Each company has different terms of service and fees, so it’s important that you educate yourself about which service will be the best for you. Handing someone a business card has a different feel than just giving out your phone number. Plus, once someone puts your number in their phone, who’s to say they will remember who you are afterwards? A good business card will have your contact information as well as what you do, and will make you stand out as a prepared professional. You can design and make your own business cards at home or through a local or online print company.

TL;DR in Russian:

The more potential applicants you reach, the greater the odds of finding excellent and committed teachers for your school. Many schools make the mistake of running a limited search, but you are much better off casting a wide net. In addition to the standard school and district job postings, consider:  online job boards that are specific to education, like School Spring and Education America online job boards that serve all career fields, like Indeed and Monster classified sections in local newspapers classified sections in nearby metropolitan newspapers job boards at local and regional colleges and universities, at least those that grant teaching degrees Job fairs attract large numbers of potential teachers, so make the most of them! Hold your own, and be sure to participate in existing local and regional job fairs for teachers. In general, teaching salaries tend to be low, so it’s important to let potential applicants know what else your school offers. Make sure your advertisements feature information about health insurance, salary supplements, and retirement benefits. The best teachers are often looking for a positive work environment and a school that values its educators. Offer examples of ways that your school and district support teachers, including mentorship programs, development opportunities, and a collaborative approach to learning. Determine which campuses in your area offer teacher preparation programs, and strive to develop a positive working relationship with those schools. It can take some time and effort to build this kind of relationship, but doing so will help you attract new teachers who are looking for their first jobs.  Have your current faculty and administrators participate in workshops and lectures on these campuses. Pair education majors with mentors from your school. Make sure to participate in the colleges’ and universities’ student teaching programs. Consider taking a more long-term approach to recruitment by encouraging teenagers to explore careers in education. These programs...

The more prepared you are for a debate, the better you'll do. If you really want to guarantee a win as much as possible, do your research. When you know a topic backwards and forwards and from all angles, you'll be much better prepared to counter any argument your opponent might dream up. It's especially important to know the most common arguments for and against both sides of the issue. When you know what your opponent is likely to emphasize, you'll be able to explain why that's wrong. Avoid making websites like Wikipedia your main source of information. It's a good place to start but you should fill in your facts from sources that are experts in whatever topic you're trying to cover. For example, if you're going to debate about economics, don't quote a Wikipedia fact. Quote Alberto Alesina, one of the economics professors at Harvard and co-editor of a major academic journal on the topic. Logical fallacies are when the line of reasoning that someone uses is wrong. Even though the conclusion might be right, the way of getting there is wrong. This can be used to shed doubt on their conclusion, making your argument look better. There are lots of different kinds of logical fallacies and you'll want to study each one individually in order to learn to recognize and counter it. By pointing out logical fallacies in your opponent's argument, you force them to either accept them and reduce the credibility of their argument, or use their precious time to try and argue that their argument isn't illogical.  One of the most common examples of a logical fallacy is called "ad hominem", and is about attacking the person making the argument rather than the argument itself. This is often seen in politics. Think of it like "this guy is a jerk" vs. "there is no evidence that this plan will work". Another common logical fallacy is called "black or white". This is when an argument is presented as having only two options, with the outcome they want being presented as the best one. This ignores middle ground and other routes, which...

TL;DR in Russian:

Исследуйте тему. Ищите логические ошибки. Ищите слабые места в их аргументации. Придерживайтесь темы.


The more sensitive the plant is to changes in heat, the less likely you will be able to grow other plants in the same section.  A cool house is a greenhouse designed to keep plants from freezing. It is ideal for temporary greenhouses. A hot house is a greenhouse designed to keep plants in tropical temperatures. You will need to choose what the temperature will be and keep it steady. It is not possible to create different zones in an open greenhouse. Ideally it should be supplied by hose water and cisterns. Slatted tables can be used in the meantime, since they will allow water to drain through the table and into the gravel. If possible, construct the beds to the primary gardener’s height to limit ergonomic problems.

TL;DR in Russian:

Узнайте какие условия необходимы растениям, которые вы хотите выращивать. Проверьте, чтобы у вас был надежный источник воды. Внутри теплицы соорудите приподнятые грядки.


The more stressed out you are, the harder it’ll be to get your work done. Don’t be angry with yourself. Move on and focus on what you’ve got to do instead. Guilt and regret are draining emotions. Wasting time yelling at yourself for not starting that 2,000-word essay two weeks ago will only make you extra tired and frustrated. It will also stress you out, likely making it impossible for you to finish your assignment at that time. Instead of thinking about the total number of hours you’re about to work for, just start. Tell yourself you’ve only got to do it for 15 minutes. This will deal with the intimidation factor, and you’ll likely spend much longer than 15 minutes on your task before you stop working again.  If 15 minutes still sounds too intimidating, do something for just 3 minutes.  Once you come up for air, take a two-minute break. Then start up on another set of 15 minutes of work. It can be overwhelming to think about finishing a whole essay or getting through an entire week’s worth of tasks. Instead of thinking about everything you have to do like one big obstacle, break it all down into tiny pieces. You’ll be able to get started on the smallest crumb and go forward from there.  For example, instead of thinking, “I need to finish this essay by 10 PM tonight,” tell yourself, “I’m going to make a short outline, fill that in, and then look for quotes.” Consider trying a specific technique like pomodoro, where breaks happen at planned intervals.  Avoid making a long, disorganized to-do list. This is just setting yourself up for failure. Instead, create subcategories like "Home," "Work," "Family," and "Fun" and just try to cross off a few entries from each list every day. Make yourself a plan in the morning and pick the hardest task first. You’ll be most energized in the morning once you’ve eaten breakfast and woken up fully. Tackle the hardest thing on your docket right then. You’ll feel better once it’s done, and then you can move on to a few easier tasks for the rest of the day. Figure out when you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Прекратите корить себя за то, что откладываете все в долгий ящик. Активно занимайтесь самыми важными делами по 15 минут. Разбивайте задания на небольшие части. Начинайте день с самых тяжелых заданий. Подбадривайте себя, чтобы зарядиться мотивацией. Не стремитесь к совершенству. Пообещайте себе награду по завершении.


The more time you have to practice your speech, the more prepared you'll feel, and as a result, the less nervous you'll feel.  One guideline for the amount of time to spend on preparing a speech is one to two hours for every minute you'll be speaking.  For example, you might want to devote 5 to 10 hours of prep time for a 5-minute speech.  Of course, that includes ALL of your preparation from start to finish; your rehearsal would be just a portion of that time. Leave yourself time to practice.   If you're given to procrastinating, you could find yourself with very little or no time to practice before you deliver your speech, which could leave you feeling unprepared and anxious. Whenever possible, give your speech in front of family members and friends.  If you want their feedback, give them specific guidelines for what you'd like them to comment on so that you don't feel overwhelmed by helpful notes.   Look at your audience.  Almost nothing does more to keep an audience engaged than eye contact from a speaker.  As you rehearse your speech, be sure to look at the family members or friends who've agreed to be your audience.  It takes a bit of practice to be able to look at your outline, script or note cards, capture a thought or two and then come up and deliver that information while looking at your audience.  It's yet another reason why rehearsal time is so important. If you don't have the opportunity to practice in front of people, be sure that when you do rehearse, that you say your speech aloud.  You don't want your speech day to be the first time you hear the words of your speech coming out of your mouth.  Plus, speaking out loud gives you a chance to double-check and correct any mispronunciations, practice articulating your words clearly and confirm the timing of your speech (We speak more quickly when we simply recite a speech in our heads). One thing rehearing your speech allows you to do is to make any necessary changes.  If it's running too long, you have to cut some material.  If it's too short or...

TL;DR in Russian:

У вас должно быть достаточно времени. Практикуйтесь на публике. Не бойтесь менять что-то в своем выступлении.


The more you find your interests and do them and are happy about it, the more likely people are to also find you interesting. Don't be scared to have a conversation about your hobbies, but don't hog the conversation either. If you're sweating meeting new people, if you're thinking about how awkward, lame, and embarrassing your last comment about ferrets was and how these people are never going to want to see you again, it will show. The solution? Stop. People are generally harmless and too wrapped up in what they're saying to notice much else. If you never see them again, it is not the end of the world. There are many other people on this planet looking for friends, too. e friendly. If you're not out there being friendly, people will assume that you're just not interested in being friends. Most humans are pretty easily intimidated and like a sure thing; if you're not receptive, warm, and give off those friendly approach-me vibes, they won't come knocking on your door. And since this is a concept you've been taught since before you could practically walk, you know exactly what we're talking about. Be willing to listen. Even if ancestry research isn't your thing, be willing to listen and ask questions. More likely than not, you might find a new interest. . Greet the people you meet by smiling. It's a friendly gesture that attracts people, shows them you're engaged in your surroundings, and looking to have a connection. Can you imagine trying to befriend a stranger you see grimacing in the corner? No thank you. Make it less nerve-wracking for potential buddies by opening up and exuding warmth. Maintain open, inviting body language. When you find yourself amongst people, try to keep your body aligned with theirs (and not toward the door, for example). Keep your arms open and stay off your phone. There are people out in the real world that deserve attention! . Too many of us blame the fact that they get tongue-tied and never really know what to say to account for the lousy social skills, when really it's listening...

TL;DR in Russian:

Держитесь уверено. Будьте дружелюбны. Улыбайтесь. Заставьте людей говорить о себе. Помните детали вашей беседы. Оставьте вашу застенчивость и неуверенность дома.


The more you know, the more motivated you’re likely to feel. There are plenty of websites about the importance of good dental hygiene. Find reasons that are personally compelling to you. Here are some examples:  Brushing your teeth daily helps prevent cavities. Cavities can make eating painful, and are costly to get filled. A cavity that grows too big due to negligence can require a root canal, which costs an average of $900.  If a tooth gets so bad that it’s unable to be saved, it may need to be pulled. When a tooth is pulled, the teeth and jaw around that spot become weaker over time and the bone suffers resorption. Forces on your teeth will change and an entire series of problems will occur. If your teeth are sensitive to hot or cold, a toothpaste for sensitive teeth can help change that. These toothpastes contain minerals that help protect the nerves in the teeth and make them less sensitive. Brushing your teeth doesn’t just affect your mouth. Good dental hygiene has been linked to other benefits as well:  Poor dental hygiene can be linked to respiratory diseases, like pneumonia and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). These diseases can be quite serious, and good dental hygiene can help prevent them. Poor dental hygiene leads to gum disease, or gingivitis. Gingivitis has been linked with an increased risk of preterm birth in pregnant women. Periodontitis, which follows gingivitis, can be linked to heart disease and this creates a constant level of bacteria in the circulatory system. Oral bacteria have also been linked to knee arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis in a 2012 study. Taking care of your teeth also leads to a better-looking smile. Compare images of people with healthy teeth to those who’ve neglected their teeth. The difference is likely to be a great motivator.  Find strong visuals that will leave an impact on you. Some people may be missing teeth or have yellowed, cracked, or blackened teeth. Without daily brushing, your teeth could eventually look like this as well. Dentists have seen...

The more you travel, learn, and experience, the more you find out about yourself, what you love, and what makes you happy. The discovery of new interests will help you figure out what you want to do with your life.  There are endless experiences you can try. You can plant a garden, take trips around the world, read books, eat new foods, or learn a new language. Do as many new things as you can. Eventually, you will stumble across something that you love. Record anything you have ever wanted to do in your life that you think will make you happy. Once you have your list, put them in order from most desired to least, and start doing them one by one. Don't be afraid to strive for something that may take years to achieve. Time is of little consequence when you are working towards something you truly love. A vision board is a poster with pictures you paste to it of the things you want in your life. The idea is to surround yourself with the places you want to travel, things you want to do, jobs you want to have, or dreams you want to achieve, so your life can begin changing to match those images. By having a visual representation of the things you want, it can help put you in the right mindset to achieve them.

The most basic and common way to eat muesli is just as you would eat a bowl of cereal, adding about a half cup of your favorite milk to an equal helping of muesli in a bowl.  Instead of milk, try your favorite brand of plain yoghurt (or flavoured if your prefer extra sweetness) for probiotic benefits and a different flavor and texture. Try heating the milk, then letting the muesli soak for a few minutes in the hot milk to soften it slightly, making it a bit more like oatmeal. You can also pour cold milk over the cereal in a microwave safe bowl, then heat the whole mixture in the microwave. Like cereal, it's also great to snack on all by itself. Just snack on it like granola. If you want to lively up your bowl of muesli, try chopping up a quarter-cup or so of your favorite fresh fruit, or adding some frozen fruit for a cold treat. Any of the following work great with muesli:  Sliced banana Blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries Kiwi Strawberries (the seeds work especially well as they add an extra sour crunch) Pork Scratchings (ideal if you want a more savoury muesli) Diced apple Chopped pear Sliced mango Lychees work especially well as they add a crisp sour flavour, which can't be topped Pomegranate seeds Dried fruits or berries are often a component of some muesli recipes already, but if you want to add some extra or add some to a more plain muesli that you've made, all of the following work well:  Cranberries Apricot Goji berries Raisins or sultanas Currants One excellent method of changing up the texture of your muesli is to soak it overnight in milk, yoghurt, or another softener of your choice. Add equal parts of muesli and milk to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, or a lid, and refrigerate overnight. This can turn the muesli into a cold porridge type mixture that many people really enjoy. Coconut milk makes for a great soaking mixture, adding gentle sweetness and subtle flavor to the muesli. If you're not crazy about the taste, you could also mix it in with a little milk to make it more palatable. If...

Попробуйте замочить мюсли в кофе или апельсиновом соке.


The most basic and straightforward of all the closing tactics, a direct close is simply asking for your customer’s final answer. Although it doesn’t have to be blunt, you are looking for the response to your single sale only. To do  this, you close your sale with an offer for a discount or additional product at a reduced price. This will not only help to solidify your current sale, but possibly gain you additional sales as well. If your client seems interested in your product, remove their hesitation by offering a test period for your product. This could be a number of days or a sample of whatever it is you’re selling. If they get a chance to use it and find it has value for them, you’ve secured your sale and opened the possibility of more in the future. In this, you show that purchasing your product is the only good outcome. You show how not buying from you may be detrimental in the long run, or how similar product or services don’t have nearly as high of standing as yours does. Close by demonstrating how much your product or service costs on a daily basis. This number will likely be low and seem very reasonable to your client, inciting their interest in purchasing it from you. Show that by purchasing your product or service, your audience is particularly intelligent, logical, helpful, et cetera. This will give them a self-esteem boost, leaving you both on a high note.

TL;DR in Russian:

Завершение напрямую. Завершение продажи с уступкой. Предложение пробного периода. Завершение с ультиматумом. Указание дневной цены. Завершение с комплиментом.


The most basic foundation of biology is that all organisms are composed of some number of cells that are independent of each other, but function as a multicellular organism. The number of cells varies from single celled organisms to organisms with trillions of cells. Keep in mind that not all cells in an organism have to be identical to one another (e.g. brain cells and heart cells). Cells function by moving molecules and energy back and forth. There are a number a molecules that are key to life as we know it. You should have an understanding of these biologically significant molecules and what they do. This will make understanding biology much easier. For example, ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the energy storage molecule. It allows cells to store energy and use it later. No organism lives forever. Instead, organisms reproduce one generation after another. Their genetic information is passed down through DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) to guide the development of their offspring. Traits that help an organism survive in its environment are favored and get reproduced more frequently, while other traits die off. This forms the basis for concepts such as inheritance and evolution, and is central to the biology field.

TL;DR in Russian:

Помните, что все живые организмы состоят из клеток. Запомните важные молекулы. Узнайте о наследственных признаках.


The most basic thing you can do to stay warm both inside and outside is to layer your clothing. Ask anyone who has lived in some of the colder parts of the world, like Alaska and Norway, and they’ll all tell you: wear layers. This lets you have one outfit for the day that adjusts easily for snowy weather outside, as well as switching over naturally to your toasty warm office. An example of an outfit would include stockings, jeans, a long sleeve shirt, a button-up shirt, a sweater and a coat. With all or a combination of these things on, you can easily adjust to a roaring hot classroom, an icy office, a neutral grocery store, and the freezing temperatures outside without any problem. Make sure your home is as insulated as it can be. You might want to switch out the insulation in your walls or ceiling. You can also do more basic things, like putting up thick curtains and blankets over windows.  Cellular shades are actually pretty effective at keeping cold air from escaping from a window and they're often cheaper than other curtain options. You can also further insulate windows and any glass doors with an insulating film, a plastic material that is clear and adheres to all kinds of glass. It is often easier and cheaper to focus on keeping one room warm than on keeping an entire apartment or house warm. Figure out a single room that your family can stick to during waking hours and seal it off from the rest of the house. Close the doors and keep them covered in blankets. Centralize your heaters and other applications to warm the room. This saves you from having to put a lot of effort in keeping rooms warm that you won't use very often. You'll want to keep an eye out for holes and gaps that will let cold air into your home or between rooms that have different levels of insulation. The most common example is the gap under doors, but you may also find that some windows let in a draft or that rooms above a basement have cold air coming up through the floor. Rolled up blankets and carpets can easily be used to plug...

The most basic thing you should do to impress people? Do something. Anything. Getting up off the couch is the most basic step. This is something that is really hard for people, and when they see you going to the gym, taking your girlfriend on exciting weekend dates, and traveling every summer, they'll be impressed. What's even better is if you pick up new skills, either for fun or for work. Whatever you do to get yourself up and actively living your life, get really good at that thing. Practice. Become a pro. This is incredibly impressive to people, even if your skill or passion is a bit niche. Of course, most people think they're working hard. If you're one of those, work harder. If you're of the opinion that you should get everything you want without really working hard at all, then we need to talk because that is a terrible way to go through life and it will not make people very impressed with you. People like someone with a strong work ethic. It makes you look more capable, even when you're not. Someone who is generous is also impressive to most people. Find ways to help others, especially by doing things like volunteering. You should also clearly be offering your help for the sake of helping, not for personal gain. This means helping even when you think no one is paying attention. Believe us, it'll come back around. If you want to impress someone with a trait you are proud of, you need to do it in a productive way. You don't want to seem like that mid-life crisis guy that thinks he's impressing people but really just gets pitied.  Show off your wealth. If you want to show off how much money you have, don't do it by buying a bunch of stuff you don't need. Instead, give money to charity or bunch lunch for the homeless guy outside your building every day. Show off your strength. If you want to show off how strong or manly you are, do it by protecting those that can't protect themselves. Show off your intelligence. If you want to show off how smart you are, do it by offering to help people with assignments,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Занимайтесь делами. Станьте лучшим в том, что вы делаете. Усердно трудитесь. Помогайте другим часто и искренне. Правильно показывайте свои достоинства. Отстаивайте свои убеждения.


The most basic way of saying no without ruining anyone else's day is to clearly and plainly say “no,” followed by a brief, succinct reason why you said no. Contrary to popular belief, there's no need to lie or make up an excuse if you don't feel yours is good enough – remember, everyone has felt the same way you do right now. If you just don't feel like granting a request, that's all the excuse you need. No specific, concrete, or logical reason is required.  For example, if someone asks you on a date and you aren't interested, the right thing to do is to simply say “No; I'm sorry but I'm not interested in you in that way.” That's all the other person needs to know to understand he or she has no further chance. There's no need to make up excuses that will only string the other person along; there's no need to be insulting and rude to drive him or her away. Chances are, if your honest reason seems silly or practically nonexistent – for example, “I was really hoping to go home and take a nap;” “I just don't feel like it” – the other person will, in fact, understand completely. If he or she doesn't, just remember: managing his or her reaction isn't your responsibility. As long as you've been civil, that's all you can do. This is the technique you should try to use most often. Your honesty and forthrightness will actually improve your reputation over time, rather than damage it. If you've had trouble saying no to things like peer pressure in the past, you'll be amazed at how little it actually bothers most people when you simply tell them you won't go along with something because you aren't comfortable with it. Sometimes, you've got to say no for your own good, but that doesn't mean you aren't interested. For instance, let's say you work all weekend, but a friend has asked you to help her move into a new apartment on Saturday. If you'd like to participate but you can't, make another offer, with terms you can manage. Suggest spending less time helping out, or offer to do something else in a similar vein when you...

The most common abrasives including baking soda and cream of tartar. Alternatively, you could also use half of a lemon and a little salt.  Combine 1 to 2 Tbsp (15 to 30 ml) of lemon juice with 1 to 2 tsp (5 to 10 ml) of baking soda. The mixture should fizz at first, but gradually calm down once you stir it together.  Mix 1 Tbsp (15 ml) lemon juice with 2 Tbsp (30 ml) cream of tartar, combining the two together to form an evenly thick paste. If using lemon and salt, cut a lemon in half and remove the seeds from one half. Coat the cut surface with table salt until well-coated. Use a soft cloth or your fingers to wipe the lemon paste onto the surface of the brass, coating it completely. Rub the paste on in a single direction for best results.  Use a soft cotton or terrycloth rag for best results. A lemon-and-baking-soda paste only needs to sit for a few minutes, but a lemon-and-cream-of-tartar paste should sit on the brass for about 30 minutes. If going the lemon-and-salt route, rub the salt-covered lemon half over the entire surface of the brass. Apply more salt to the lemon as needed until the entire brass surface has been polished. Place the brass under lukewarm running water and gently wipe the residue away with your fingers. If parts of the brass still seem dull, you can reapply the lemon solution of choice to that area for additional shine. Wipe the brass dry with a soft, clean towel. Apply even pressure in small, circular passes to give the brass an extra buffing.

TL;DR in Russian:

The most common fungal skin infection is athlete's foot, the most common bacterial skin infection is staph, and the most common viral skin infections include herpes simplex (cold sores) and rashes accompanied by viral infections. Knowing the differences between the various types of infections can help you to know the causes of each and how to avoid them.  Fungal infections come from airborne organisms and typically start off in the lungs or skin. Athlete's foot, yeast infections, and ringworms are examples of common fungal infections. Athlete's foot is contagious and can be spread through contaminated floors, towels, and clothing. Bacteria is not always bad; in fact, bacteria is naturally found in the human body and less than 1% has the ability to make people sick. It is the "bad" strains of bacteria (such as Streptococcus or Staphylococcus) which causes skin infections like Cellulitis, Erysipelas and Impetigo. However, skin infections can also spread to your joints, bones, or blood. Additionally, you should be careful if anyone you know has MRSA, which is a resistant bacterial infection. Viral infections are caused by organisms that are small containers with genetic material within. They invade healthy cells, reproduce, and eventually kill the cell to make you sick. Common skin infections caused by viruses include chickenpox, cold sores, measles, and rubella. There are currently no vaccinations for cold sores, so be aware if you come across this infection. Those who are constantly around warm and moist conditions (such as athletes) are more susceptible to infections. Also, people with weakened immune systems (such as those with diabetes, cancer, or HIV) are more likely to have a skin infection.  Many athletes report infection because bacteria tends to thrive in warm and moist areas. Avoid infection by washing frequently, sanitizing shared spaces and equipment, and laundering uniforms after each use. For example, athlete's foot typically occurs as a result of your sweaty feet being confined in tight-fitting...

The most common places for fungal infections to occur on the body are in warm, moist places where there is little light. Armpits, the groin area, and under the breasts are common areas for fungal growth.  The inframammary fold is the area under the breast. This area is well-suited for fungus to grow. The most common type of fungus that causes an infection under the breast is a yeast called candida. This is the same yeast, or candida, that causes vaginal infections and yeast infections in the mouth called thrush. There are no serious long-term consequences of a candida infection under the breast, other than a darkening of the skin which can be permanent, and the possibility that the condition will spread. The rash associated with a fungal infection under the breast can vary in appearance. The rash occurs in areas where the breast tissue folds against the skin of the upper stomach or chest area.  Most often the rash will be pink to red in color, itchy, have areas that are growing outward, and contain small bumps, especially along areas where there are hair follicles, such as under the arm. The rash is sometimes referred to as an intertrigo rash.  Intertrigo is an area of the skin that is inflamed, and occurs in places that are warm, moist, and where two skin areas press against each other. The rash associated with intertrigo can be caused by a fungus, bacteria, or prolonged exposure to moisture. There is usually an odor present. The odor is caused by persistent moisture and the breakdown of healthy skin tissue. Treating a fungal infection with associated intertrigo under the breasts can be accomplished by altering the environment that is promoting the growth of the fungus, and by using an antifungal medication prescribed by your doctor.  To alter the environment, take steps to avoid the skin folds pressing against one another and prevent the accumulation of moisture. Be sure you have a bra that fits well and prevents your breast tissue from resting against the skin of your upper stomach or chest area. If...

The most common symptom in both men and women with gonorrhea is painful/burning urination. This sensation may disappear on its own, but is often painful enough to send men to the doctor. In both men and women, gonorrhea produces a yellowish-greenish, thick discharge from the genitals. It is a secretion produced by the bacteria itself. In women this secretion can also be accompanied by bleeding between periods. It is the body’s way of expelling the foreign agent. Any unusual vaginal discharge should be examined by a doctor. This could be a sign of Pelvic Inflammatory Disease (PID) — a common symptom of gonorrhea in women. If you have PID, you might also experience fevers greater than or equal to 101 Fahrenheit. 750,000 cases of PID are diagnosed annually. 10% of those with PID face infertility. In both men and women, gonorrhea can cause general inflammation of one’s genitals.  Women may experience swelling, redness, or soreness of the vulva (the opening of the vagina).  In men, gonorrhea can lead to swollen testicles and an inflamed prostate gland. In both women and men who practice anal sex, gonorrhea can produce anal discharge and painful bowel movements. Frequent and persistent diarrhea can accompany anal gonorrhea. See your doctor immediately, if you experience these symptoms. Gonococcal pharyngitis or gonorrhea of the mouth produces sore throat, discomfort while swallowing, general redness, and whitish/yellowish discharge. The symptoms are the same for men and women. People with oral gonorrhea usually do not transmit the disease to others, but it is possible through direct contact with the back of the mouth. Kissing does not normally transmit the disease. Contact between the pharynx and body parts/objects can lead to transmission. Most people with oral gonorrhea often mistake their condition for strep throat or the common cold. Only after visiting the doctor do they discover that they have oral gonorrhea.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратите внимание на чувство жжения при мочеиспускании. Обратите внимание на необычные выделения. Обратите внимание на боли в области таза и живота.

The most common symptom of UC is blood in the stool (poop). It may be in the form of fresh red blood, a mixture with mucus or a streak on the surface of a hard stool. A bloody stool indicates bleeding in the digestive system somewhere. If it's bright red in color then it signifies bleeding from the colon or rectum.  The blood may also be accompanied by pus (dead white blood cells). Blood in the stool is also a common symptom of colon and stomach cancers. Blood that looks like coffee grinds comes from the upper digestive system, such as the stomach or small intestine. Many types of problems in the digestive system cause diarrhea, so it's not specific to UC, but the timing of it is important. Watery diarrhea after taking a meal or at nighttime is indicative of UC. This happens because the intestines rapidly push the digested fecal material past the ulcerated area to avoid aggravating the inflammation.  Although acute (short term) diarrhea usually passes quickly, chronic diarrhea for more than a few weeks is a sign of a significant digestive tract problem. If the rectum becomes really swollen from UC, the intestines will slow down the digestive process to spare the rectum from holding feces for a prolonged period. Consequently, constipation can occur after long bouts of diarrhea. Diarrhea can quickly lead to dehydration, so keep yourself well hydrated by drinking eight 8-ounce glasses of purified water daily. Along with cramping from chronic diarrhea, another sign of UC is vague lower or central abdominal pain. The pain is from the ulceration through the mucosal layers of the large intestine/bowel. There's not as many nerve endings there as other places on your skin, the pain is more vague and often described as a mild-to-moderate burning sensation.  This type of pain is very different from that caused by Crohn’s disease (another type of IBD) or appendicitis, which are usually felt in the lower right side of the abdomen. The burning abdominal pain of UC is usually not relieved by defecation (taking a poop). With...

The most common symptoms of OM include ear pain or ear tugging (if the child can't yet verbalize pain), fussiness, fever, and even vomiting. In addition, a child may eat or have trouble sleeping normally because lying down, chewing, and sucking can alter the pressure in the ear and cause pain. Adults will also experience pain, a sensation of pressure, and increase discomfort while lying down.  Given that the age group most commonly affected from ear infections and fluid ranges from three months to two years old, parents or primary caregivers will be required to give as much information and history as possible to the doctor on their children's behalf. Thus, it's important to keep track and careful record of any noted symptoms. If you notice any discharge of fluid, pus or bloody discharge, see a doctor immediately. " Ear infections are considered secondary infections that follow the "common cold", or the primary infection. You should expect to see a few days of nasal discharge or congestion, cough, sore throat, and a low fever, all typical symptoms that accompany colds. Most colds are due to viral infections and, given that there is no treatment for viral infections, there is usually no reason to seek medical attention. Only seek medical attention if the fever cannot reaches temperatures higher than 102°F (38.9°C). Keep track of all symptoms of the cold, as your doctor will want to know about the primary infection. The cold should last for a week. If you don't see improvement after a week, visit your doctor. The middle ear is normally filled with air which transmits sound waves. When the middle ear is filled with fluid during an infection sounds will be different or reduced. Some people complain that it sounds like listening to sounds under water. Signs that proper hearing may be impacted include:  Failure to respond to soft sounds or other noises The need to turn up the TV or radio to a louder volume Talking in an usually loud voice General inattentiveness Most ear infections don't cause long-term...

The most common test for the diagnosis of lactase deficiency is called a hydrogen breath test. This test is done at your doctor's office or an outpatient clinic, but typically after you've experimented with an elimination diet. The hydrogen breath test involves drinking a sweet liquid containing lots of lactose (25 grams). Your doctor then measures the amount of hydrogen gas in your breath at regular intervals (every 30 minutes). With people who can digest lactose, very little or no hydrogen is detected; however, for lactose intolerant people, the hydrogen reading is much higher because the sugar ferments in their colons via bacteria and produces the gas.  The hydrogen breath test is great way to identify lactose intolerance because it's highly reliable and very convenient. The test typically requires you to fast the night before and avoid smoking. Using too much lactose on some people can give false positives, as can bacterial overgrowth in their colons. The lactose tolerance test is a blood test used to gauge your body's reaction to consuming high levels of lactose (usually 50 grams). A fasting serum glucose is taken by your doctor as a baseline measurement and then compared to readings taken one to two hours after drinking the lactose beverage. If your blood glucose level doesn't increase by 20 g/dL above the baseline within that time frame, it means your body isn't properly digesting and/or absorbing lactose.  The blood glucose/lactose tolerance test is an older method of diagnosing lactose intolerance and not performed nearly as frequently as the hydrogen breath test, but it can also be helpful. The blood glucose/lactose tolerance test has a sensitivity of 75% and a specificity of 96%.  False-negative results occur with diabetes and bacterial overgrowth in the intestines. Undigested lactose creates lactic acid and other fatty acids in your colon, which end up in your feces. A stool acidity test, which is typically used on infants and young children, can detect these acids from a stool sample. The child...

The most common type of skin bacterial infections are staphylococcal.  Staphylococcal, or staph infections, are more common and live in your skin and mucous membranes. Sometimes, this bacteria is harmless; in fact, a significant proportion of the population is considered to be "colonized" with staph on their skin. However, certain strains of staph or inoculation with high amounts of staph can cause serious infection. Common staph infections include:  Ecthyma — Also known as “crusted ulcers.” This may be a deep form of impetigo, and is characterized by deep and crusted sores.   Hair follicle infections — This may include boils, abscesses, sycosis, folliculitis, or carbuncles. Skin infection wounds — These wounds include dermatitis and diabetic ulcers. Anyone can get a bacterial skin infection. Staph infections may occur if you have a cut or open wound that is not cleaned properly. You may pick up a staph infection if you come into contact with someone who already has one. A staph infection can occur anywhere on the body.  If you were recently in the hospital, you may have developed an infection in an injection or surgery site.  You may get an infection near a tube or catheter opening. Also check cracks on the feet and any sites where you may have been scratched. You will want to seek medical attention from your doctor or emergency room or urgent care if you think you have any of these illness. Staph infections usually need to be treated by a doctor, either with antibiotics, by draining an abscess, or both. Failure to do so may cause spread of the infection or even death.

The most common, and easiest, way to start growing a Venus flytrap is to purchase a bulb (or several bulbs) from a company that specializes in growing the plants. Search online to find a vendor from which you can mail order bulbs. You'll be able to choose from among several varieties that have differences in shape and color. You may also be able to find a nursery in your area that sells Venus flytrap bulbs. While it's less common, you can certainly grow a Venus flytrap from seed as well - bearing in mind that it could take up to 5 years for the seed to become a mature plant. Order seeds online and germinate them in deep pots filled with a seed substrate composed of sphagnum moss. Place the pots in plastic bags to keep the environment warm and moist. Once the seedlings have sprouted, you can transplant them to a more permanent growing medium. Since Venus flytraps require high humidity, a glass growing container is an excellent choice. This is especially true if you live in growing zone 7 or lower, where the winter temperature gets too cold for the Venus flytrap.  If you live in growing zone 7 or lower, consider planting the Venus flytrap in a terrarium. The high sides of the terrarium will keep heat and moisture trapped in, helping the Venus flytrap thrive. Airflow is important, though, so don't plant it in a container with a lid. A fishbowl or another glass container with an opening works well. A glass pot or a regular clay pot with drainage holes both work fine if you live in a warm climate with mild winters - growing zone 8 or higher. This plant naturally grows in very poor soil, and gets most of its nutrients by eating insects and spiders. In order to replicate the plant's natural growing medium, make a mixture of 2/3 sphagnum moss and 1/3 sand.   If you plant a Venus flytrap in regular potting soil, it won't thrive. Regular potting soil contains too many nutrients. Never add lime or fertilizer to a Venus flytrap's growing medium. If you're using a terrarium, line it with gravel and place the soil mixture...

The most distinctive thing about Kevin Durant's shooting technique is that he doesn't square up to the basket to take a shot, he instead aligns himself by pointing his hip to the hole. Some analysts believe that squaring up this way can help to take tension away from the neck and shoulders, resulting in a more natural action, though it traditionally isn't the way shooting is taught. Likewise, Durant's feet aren't aimed at the hoop when he shoots, but turned to approximately 10 on the clock, if the basket is 12. Some other shooters, like Dirk Nowitzki, orient themselves to the basket similarly, lessening the torque on the neck and shoulders and throwing off defenders. Durant doesn't jump straight up in the air when he takes a shot. Instead, he sweeps his feet forward and sways his shoulders back, resulting in a high-arcing shot that he's learned to make incredibly accurate. It's not the most technically-perfect form for a shot from long-range, but it has yielded great shooting percentages for KD. . Unlike Reggie Miller and Kobe, who have strange off-kilter follow-throughs, Durant's shot itself is fairly straightforward and his technique is pure, other than his foot placement. He keeps his elbows in tight, puts his hand in the cookie jar during the follow through, and almost always makes his shot. Unlike flashier players like LeBron and Kobe, Kevin Durant's game is basically built around his jump shot, which he earns by making his way to space and passing the ball, not by using step-jukes and other methods of shaking the player. Unlike other tall ballers, Durant also hops on almost every shot, however close he is to the ball, using his good arcing from any distance.

The most exciting free movie is a free movie that hasn't even been released yet, which are often shown in advance to generate hype and get feedback. Look for these opportunities as frequently as you can, since tickets usually disappear fast. More opportunities are available in population centers.  To find screenings for a specific movie, go to AdvanceScreenings.com. (US only) Visit Gofobo and enter your zip code. Many of the other websites will lead you here, so you can save some time by creating a free account in advance. (US only) Like the WildAboutMovies Facebook page If one of the sites above asks you for an RSVP code, search online for the name of the movie, the location it's being screened in, and "RSVP code" or "access code." Searching on twitter is also a good idea, since companies will sometimes give away these codes to followers.  These tend to include a lot of promotions and advertising that don't include the magic words "free movie." If you're willing to sift through these for advance screening deals, sign up for the theater chains with a location in your area:  RegMovies AMC Theaters There are usually more tickets given out than there are seats in the theater. Show up at least 45 minutes early to minimize the chance that you're turned away. Some screenings even have receptions before the movie, so you'll definitely want to show up early for those. Some people in San Francisco report the theater filling up as early as 1.5 hours before the movie begins. Some advance screenings do not allow mobile phones or cameras into the theater, to prevent competing studios from recording the film for the purposes of plagiarism. This practice is less common for screenings closer to the release date.

The most important celebration of the Passover week is the seder, a festive meal, which is usually held on the first night of Passover. The seder plate plays a central role in the Passover celebration. It consists of six symbolic foods, plus three pieces of matzah which will be placed on a separate plate. The six symbolic foods are:  The Bitter Herbs. Traditionally this would be horseradish, but parsley, green onion, or celery can also be used. The Paste or Charoset. This is a sweet mixture which represents the mortar used by the slaves to build the pyramids of Egypt. It is usually a ground mixture of apples, nuts and wine. A variety of recipes can be found online. The Vegetable. This is a non-bitter, root vegetable such as a boiled potato. This represents the hard labor of the slaves. The Shankbone. This is a shankbone, usually lamb or goat, which symbolizes the sacrificial lamb of Passover. The Egg. A hard-boiled egg used to symbolize the offering made in the days of the Temple. The Lettuce. This is usually romaine, which like the bitter herbs symbolizes the bitterness of slavery. This is a book which will contain the necessary prayers, as well as the procedures and story of Passover for the seder. It is a useful guide for how to perform the seder properly.  You can find a copy of the Haggadah in English online. You can also listen to a recitation of “The Order of the Seder” online. This is a blessing said over wine in honor of Passover. Say the Kiddush blessing and then drink the first of four cups of wine. You can then pour the second cup of wine but do not drink it yet. Wash your hands without a blessing. This is to prepare for the eating of the Karpas. This is a vegetable, usually parsley. Dip the vegetable in the saltwater and eat it. The vegetable is a symbol of the humble origins of the Jewish people. The salt water is a symbol of the tears shed due to slavery. Break the middle of the three matzah on the table, known as "yachatz". Return the smaller part to the pile. The larger part will be returned...

The most important ingredient in a flickering redstone torch (and the one that gives it its name) is Redstone. Redstone can be obtained in a variety of ways, though perhaps the most straightforward is to simply mine it from redstone ore. Redstone ore occurs naturally underground and requires an iron pickaxe or better to mine. Each block of redstone ore yields 4-5 redstone. Redstone can also be obtained several other ways, including:  By trading with a villager priest By killing a witch, who drop 0-6 redstone when they die By collecting redstone dust in jungle temples, where it naturally occurs By crafting from a block of  redstone. (Uses 8 redstone) As is the case with ordinary torches, redstone torches require a wooden stick for crafting. Luckily, this ingredient is fairly common, as it is used in many craftable items. Sticks can be crafted from two wood planks (one above the other), which, combined, will yield 4 sticks. Other ways to obtain sticks include:  Killing a witch, who drop 0-6 sticks when they die Finding them in a bonus chest (Not in Minecraft Pocket Edition) When you have your redstone and stick, open your inventory and use the crafting menu to combine them. A single redstone torch is created from one stick and one redstone. A word of caution when using redstone torches - since the light they provide is significantly less than that of a normal torch, mobs are able to spawn nearby. Don't be caught unprepared! You've now created a fully functional redstone torch. However, to create a pulsing/flickering effect, you'll need additional supplies of redstone for the purpose of laying redstone circuitry. Thus, you may need to mine more redstone ore as needed or be ready to obtain it through one of the other methods.

The most important item to buy is either canvas or burlap measuring 2 1/2 feet by 4 1/2 feet.  This can be found at most craft stores.  You can choose any color of canvas or burlap you like, but remember that you will be painting designs on top of the material.  Therefore, you should go for lighter colors, such as white or off-white. You will also need to pick up the following items: painter's tape, fabric paint, a paper plate, a small paintbrush, a template with your design of choice, sandpaper, an iron, fabric glue, two 7/8-inch dowels, two eye hooks, and twine to hang your tapestry. Measure, with a ruler, 3 inches from the bottom of the canvas and draw a straight horizontal line.  Take a piece of masking tape that is 2 1/2 feet long and place it along this line (top edge of masking tape goes on the line).  Measure 1 inch above the masking tape, and draw another straight, horizontal line. Place a 2 1/2 foot long piece of masking tape along this line (bottom edge of masking tape goes along line). Place a small amount of fabric paint on a paper plate.  Dip the paintbrush into the paint, and paint between the two pieces of tape.  While you can slightly paint over the tape, make sure not to get loose paint on the rest of the canvas.  It is best to dab rather than to brush in long strokes.  Wipe your paintbrush off with a paper towel, and then run it under some hot water.  This will get the excess paint off.  Wait for the paint to dry before you safely remove the tape strips. You can add more paint stripes above the one you made.  Simply repeat the previous instructions, adjusting the height of each of your stripes (instead of a 1 inch stripe, you may want to paint a 1/2 inch stripe above the one you already painted). Leave some space in between each stripe so that you can clearly see each one.  Make sure not to make too many stripes, as you need some space to paint on your design. You will want to stick to something basic that can be identified simply by the outline of the object or thing.  Many simple designs...

The most important part of being a captain is leading by example. Because you are the captain, your teammates will look up to you and follow your lead whether you want them to or not. No matter the situation, your teammates need to see you working as hard as you can to win the game; you are also the primary person who will either be rewarded for credit or criticised for the team's performance.  Some ways to show your effort include not jogging when you should be running, and never giving up on a play. If you slack off, or give less effort, that is a sign that they do not need to try as hard either. This is especially important if you are losing during a game. Don’t let the situation dictate your effort.  Let your teammates know that you will always give your best effort, even if you don’t win the game. It can be hard to keep that energy up while losing, and your teammates will need your example to help. On the field, you should treat your opponents with respect. After the game is over, be sure to shake their hands as well. No matter how contentious the game, congratulate them on a good contest. Let your teammates know it is okay and important to be respectful of the everyone playing.  Be respectful to fans. You can always lead your teammates in saluting or applauding the cheers of your own fans after the game. Ignore booing, taunts, or insults to show your teammates that those things shouldn’t affect their performance. Never shout back or make obscene gestures in response to negative fan comments. Talk to your teammates about sportsmanship as well. Ask them to describe what they think sportsmanship means, and how they are going to practice it during games. That way they will know and understand what you are doing, rather than you hoping they pick it up. It never hurts to remind them of the proper way to treat each other and their opponents. In many sports, captains are the only players allowed to talk to the referees. Don’t shout at the officials over calls you think they missed or got wrong. Remember that...

TL;DR in Russian:

Полностью отдавайтесь игре. Оставайтесь порядочным спортсменом. Уважительно относитесь к арбитрам. Принимайте ответственность за свои ошибки.


The most important part of repairing stainless steel is rubbing in the same direction as the grain. Look very closely at the steel and determine which direction the surface seems to be running in. This is the grain.  Working against the grain can actually make the scratches worse. That’s why it’s so important to know the direction of the grain before you begin. The grain will generally run either from side to side (horizontally), or up and down (vertically). There are a few compounds and cleaners that can be used to fill and smooth very light and minor scratches on the surface of stainless steel. Products you can try include:  Bar Keeper's Friend Perfect-It Rubbing Compound Revere Stainless Steel and Copper Cleaner Whitening toothpaste Some compounds and cleaners come in a powdered form, and these must be made into a paste before you can apply them to the steel. Mix a tablespoon (14 g) of powder with a few drops of water. Stir to combine, and add a few more drops of water until you have a smooth paste. The consistency you're looking for is that of toothpaste. Pour a few drops of cleaner onto a clean microfiber cloth. For the paste, spoon about a quarter of the paste onto a cloth. Working in the same direction as the metal’s grain, rub the compound gently into the scratch. Because the compound isn't abrasive, you can rub back and forth over the scratch. Continue rubbing, adding more compound as needed, until the scratch has been buffed away. Soak a clean microfiber cloth with water. Wring out all the excess so the cloth is barely damp. Wipe the surface of the steel with the cloth to remove excess compound and shine the surface. Wipe the surface with a dry microfiber cloth to remove any leftover dampness. Examine the surface of the stainless steel to assess whether the treatment was effective.  Repeat the buffing process again if the scratch improved but is still slightly visible. If the scratch is still quite visible, you may have to take more drastic steps, such as sanding the entire surface.

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите направление полировки. Выберите неабразивное вещество или средство. Разведите водой порошковые средства. Разотрите средство по царапине. Удалите оставшееся средство. Высушите поверхность и осмотрите ее.


The most important thing that you can do to ensure that you enjoy a field trip is to obey the rules. You don’t want to be yelled at or pulled out of the field trip for behaving badly because you may miss out on fun, interesting activities. Your teacher will likely go over the rules before you leave for the trip, but make sure to listen to the guidelines that staff at your destination, such as a museum tour guide, share as well.  Remember that you’re representing your entire school when you’re on a field trip, so it’s important to behave and establish a good reputation for the school. If you and other students break rules and are generally unruly, not only may your school not be invited back to the venue, but your class may not be able to go on any field trips in the future. Don’t be afraid to ask questions if you’re unsure of the rules. You don’t want to accidentally break a rule because you don’t understand what is and is not permitted. Before you arrive at the field trip destination, your teacher has probably given you a background lesson on the subject matter. The venue usually helps bring the lesson to life in a fun, interesting way that it couldn’t in a classroom, though, so it’s important to pay attention to the activities and presentations that occur during the field trip so you really absorb the information.  It’s always exciting to be out of school, but you shouldn’t just use the opportunity to chat with your friends. You’re still supposed to learn something even though you’re out of the classroom. If you have friends who have a habit of distracting you, it’s a good idea to tell them that you really want to pay attention on the trip. You might say, “I really like talking/hanging out with you, but let’s save that for lunch. I really want to pay attention today.” When you hear where you’re going on your field trip, you might write the experience off as boring because it’s tied to a lesson that you’ve learned in school. However, you should go into the trip with an open mind because getting to experience...

The most important thing to be convincingly naughty with your significant other is to be confident and comfortable with yourself. The first step to being more confident and comfortable is to stop apologizing to everyone. Stop apologizing for not being sexier, stop apologizing for gaining weight, stop apologizing for wanting to have sex. You have desires and needs and feelings, and they are valid. You don't need to look like a movie star or a porn star to be worthy of your partner or for them to think you're sexy. They chose you. They're with you. They think you're sexy. Besides, sexy is mostly about how you act, not how you look. You are a sexual creature. That is normal and, really, a great thing. If you're spending a bunch of time being too embarrassed about sex to really enjoy it, then you're not going to be very good at this naughty thing. Be sexual. Be okay with being sexual. This is very important. Comfortable with that sexual side now? Good. Now experiment, either solo or with a partner, and explore your body. Figure out what really brings you pleasure. Find your "on" button. You'd think that being naughty is all about pleasuring your partner, but it's also about telling your partner (in a very naughty manner) exactly how to pleasure you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Прекратите извиняться. Прекратите пытаться выглядеть как звезда кино. Цените свою сексуальную сторону. Определите, что доставляет вам удовольствие.


The most important thing to remember about having a conversation is that it goes both ways. Listen and show compassion to others. If people think they can talk to you about anything, they’ll invite you to hang out more often. Don’t monopolize the conversation. If you ignore people or always talk about yourself, they won’t invite you anymore.  Ask questions. This is a good way to keep a conversation going. It also shows the other person, that you are trying to understand their story or problem. Offer advice if needed or wanted. Some people just want someone to listen to them. They need to get a load off of their chest. Be the person that listens. Give advice based on personal experience. Focus on the positive aspects of your life, what you are looking forward to, or what you want to do. We all know that misery loves company, but if you are miserable all the time, others won’t want to hang out with you.  If you catch yourself saying something negative, try to counter your comment with two positive comments. Try to cheer up the people around you. It will show them that you are compassionate and will generally leave them with the impression that you are a good, fun person. Being positive is a goal as much as it’s an instruction here. Trying to be positive can have an effect on your own mood and quality of life. If you’ve had a terrible day, you can talk about it with people around you, but don’t dwell. Be positive that things will improve. Being positive helps to reduce stress, depression, and even blood pressure. Your body needs to match your persona. You can pretend to be cool, say interesting things, and be confident, but if you body screams the opposite, people won’t want to hang out with you.  Open your stance up. Don’t close yourself off by crossing your arms or hunching over. You want your body to tell people that you welcome their approach. Lean forward. Psychologists explain that leaning forward during a conversation indicates interest. People will think you are more fun to hang out with if you show...

TL;DR in Russian:

Проявляйте интерес. Будьте позитивны. Следите за языком тела. Больше шутите. Улыбайтесь и смейтесь.


The most obvious way to soothe a burnt tongue is to counteract the heat with something cold. Try sucking on an ice cube or licking an ice pop—even drinking a cold drink will help. Yogurt is one of the best remedies for a burnt tongue, as it is extremely cooling and soothing.  Eat a spoonful immediately after burning your tongue and let it sit on your mouth for a few seconds before swallowing. Natural Greek yogurt is recommended, but any kind of yogurt will do. You could also try drinking a glass of cold milk. One unique home remedy for a burnt tongue is to sprinkle a pinch of white sugar onto the burnt area and let it dissolve. Let it sit in the mouth for at least a minute for the pain to go away. Any pain should quickly subside. Saltwater can relieve the burn while preventing an infection at the same time. Mix one teaspoon of salt with a cup of water. Take a big sip of the water, and swish it around in your mouth. Hold the saltwater in your mouth for between one and two minutes before spitting it out in a sink. Vitamin E oil will help to soothe a burnt tongue and will also speed up the healing process by helping the tongue tissue to regenerate. Simply open a 1,000 IU vitamin E capsule and spread the oil on the burnt part of your tongue. It may sound pretty basic, but simply breathing through your mouth (instead of your nose) can help to soothe a burnt tongue, due to the cold air that rushes over your tongue when you inhale. Until healing occurs, stay away from acidic foods like tomatoes, citrus fruits and juices and vinegar.  If you really want to, water down orange juice so it is very weak but cold and that will soothe the area for the time you drink it. You should also avoid salty foods like potato chips, or spicy foods, like hot sauce, since these items will irritate the area. The aloe vera plant is a popular natural remedy for soothing and healing burns. Apply a little aloe vera gel (straight from the plant, not from creams or store-bought gels) directly onto the burnt area of the tongue. Be...

The most simple version of this problem will be in the form of ma ÷ mb. In this case, you're working with the problem m8 ÷ m2. Write it down. The second exponent is 2 and the first is 8. So, you can rewrite the problem as m8-2. Since 8 - 2 = 6, your final answer is m6. It's that simple. If you're not working with a variable and have an actual number in the base, such as 2, then you would have to do the math (26 = 64) to finish solving the problem.

The most traditional of all cuddling positions, spooning is popular for a reason: it’s great! Spooning consists of a “big” and “little” spoon, where both partners lay on their sides tucked into each other. The big spoon is the one in the back, and often drapes their arm over the torso of the little spoon.  Be aware of your heads. Because your heads are nearly even with each other, it is best to stagger them a bit. The big spoon can rest their head on the shoulder of the little spoon, or prop it up on an arm. Keep heat in mind. Spooning is one of the greatest heat-generating cuddling positions, because there is so much physical contact. The big spoon may have to hold off wrapping their arm around the little spoon or move their legs back a bit to avoid creating a sweat pool. Nearly as classic as a complete spoon, the half-spoon is accomplished with one person laying on their back and the other facing them, laying on their side. The person on their side will likely rest their head on the other’s chest. Intertwine your legs for an even more intimate cuddling session. Best for cuddling in tight spaces, layer your cuddling by having the larger person lay face up. The second person can then rest face-down directly over the bottom half. To avoid suffocation of the lower stack, the top person should stagger their body slightly downwards, so that they can turn their head to the side and rest it on the bottom half’s chest. One of the most romantic cuddling positions is when you lie towards each other face-to-face. You may lie on your stomachs and turn your heads to the side, or lay on your sides - whatever works best. Increase the romantic feelings swirling around the room by holding hands in the space between your bodies. You know, you and your partner are out camping or watching a meteor shower, and therefore want to cuddle but both need to see the sky. Lay on your backs next to each other and wrap your legs together. If you don’t mind a dead arm, one of you can slip their arm under the neck of the other person in a...

The most valuable thing you can offer your parents is your time, and they will really appreciate your doing so. Sitting down with your parents and asking them about their lives shows you care and take an interest in them. You may even learn something about them you never knew before.  Begin the conversation by saying, “What was it like for you growing up?” Or you could say, “I think it’s really cool you went backpacking across Europe. What was that like?” It’s sometimes difficult for a child to remember that their parents have lives, too. What’s more, it can be hard to believe that their lives didn’t always revolve around you and your siblings. A great way to bond with your parents and demonstrate affection is by doing something they are interested in. If your parents have interests or hobbies, participate with them. Activities are much more enjoyable when you have someone doing them with you, especially when it is your child. They will appreciate you showing interest in what they like and the time you’ve taken to engage with them.  For instance, if they enjoy sports, strike up a game with them. If they attend a book club, ask if you can join. Spending time with them while they are doing something they love will create happy memories for all involved. There’s a good chance your parents have been cooking for you your entire life. Now is the chance to turn the tables. Give them the night off and cook a meal from the heart—even if it’s macaroni and cheese! Don’t worry if your meal isn’t perfect. Your parents won’t mind if your cuisine isn’t five-star. They will only appreciate the time and effort you put into meal. If your parents attend religious services, one of the most thoughtful ways to show you love them is to attend services together. There’s something special about sharing your faith and worshipping with others, especially parents and your children. This heartfelt gesture will surely be something they remember for a long time.  Make it a weekly thing, if possible, to attend devotional or other spiritual...

TL;DR in Russian:

Cut through the bottoms of all the cereal boxes in your house and leave them upright in the cupboard for a hungry, unsuspecting victim to grab. When a friend or family member has their hands full, tell them you want to try an experiment. Get them to put their hand through a door and hold onto an egg. Then walk away, leaving them still standing, unable to leave without dropping the egg. Remove the deodorant stick from the container and replace it with a stick of cream cheese.

The natural green copper patina can be mimicked with an ammonia solution, while the slightly darker color of an American penny can be created with baking soda and water. Because the application of these solutions are so similar, they are both described in this section. Wipe the item clean with a dry cloth. Grimy copper items should be washed in warm, soapy water instead, then dried thoroughly. If you are trying to create a green patina, you'll need to use ammonia. Work outside or in an area with a powerful ventilation system or fan. Ammonia fumes can be toxic, so ammonia should never be handled in an enclosed space. Rubber gloves and safety glasses are recommended. If creating a brown patina with baking soda and water, no safety precautions are required. Stir together 2 cups (or 500 mL) white vinegar, 0.5 cups (or 125 mL) non-iodized salt, and 1.5 cups (or 375 mL) clear ammonia. Ammonia can be found at some grocery stores and drug stores, but take care not to purchase the weaker "detergent" variety. The more salt you add, the greener the patina will be. This solution will turn your copper a darker brown, roughly the color of an American penny. Simply shake baking soda in a bottle of hot water one spoonful at a time, until additional baking soda does not dissolve. Use a spray bottle to apply the patina onto the surface of the copper. Spray more heavily if you want a more even result rather than streaks or patterns. This patina may take a few hours to develop, but keeping it in moist air will speed this process up. If the copper is kept in a dry environment, use a plastic bag or plastic sheeting to cover the copper without touching its surface. This will help retain moisture. Depending on the environment the copper is kept in, and how often it is handled, the patina may wear off or fade before it sets permanently. If this occurs, reapply as before, either to the entire surface or to the area wear the patina has rubbed off. The green patina tends to be more powdery and easier to rub off than the brown one.

TL;DR in Russian:

Приготовьте собственные растворы для окраски металла. Почистите медь. При обращении с аммиаком соблюдайте меры безопасности. Для зеленой патины используйте раствор аммиака. Раствор для получения коричневой патины. Побрызгайте раствором на металл. Положите предмет во влажное место на 1-8 часов. Если вы не достигли нужного цвета, нанесите раствор еще раз.


The needle valve on the bottom of the Bunsen burner adjusts the gas flow rate, which determines the height of the flame. More gas will create a larger flame, and less gas gives you a smaller flame. Open or close the needle valve until you’ve adjusted your flame to the appropriate size for your task. The collar controls the amount of air entering the barrel, which determines the temperature of the flame. Close the collar so that no air enters the barrel for the coolest flame, or a safety flame. When you want to heat something, open the air ports until the flame is the right color. The flame gets hotter as it turns blue, and is hottest when it’s almost invisible. Adjust the air flow slowly to avoid blowing out your flame. Typically, you’ll want to create a medium-sized, hot blue flame, but the proper temperature and color depends on your task. If you’re not sure, check with your lab supervisor or experiment’s protocols. Remember to close the air ports to create a cooler flame when you’re not heating something, and never leave the lit burner unattended.
