Подумайте, зачем вам нужна генограмма. Поймите, что вы хотите найти. Решите, сколько поколений будет на генограмме. Составьте список вопросов, которые вы будете задавать себе и своим родственникам.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

The purpose of your genogram will help you to focus on the type of family information you want to collect. It's also likely to help you decide with whom you will share the completed diagram––sometimes the information might be considered upsetting or too sensitive for some family members, so you'll need to judge that depending on the context.  Genograms can focus on a number of hereditary patterns and issues including substance abuse, mental illness, and physical violence, as well as many physical illnesses. Genograms can provide health care workers with a visual document that tracks the history of your current mental or medical proclivities through your family bloodline. Once you know why you're making a genogram, whether it’s for a healthcare provider, school project, or just to get to know you and your family more, knowing what it is you want to learn can help you to organize how you go about populating your genogram.  Genograms are like family trees. Only in addition to looking at the branches, you also look at the leaves on each branch. You'll not only learn who is in your family, but how everyone is connected through physical and emotional relationships. For example, a genogram can tell you who is married, divorced, widowed, etc. It will also tell you how many kids each union (typically between two individuals) has, what each child is like, and what the individual relationships are between members on more than just a physical level. Think about what kind of information you want to learn from making your genogram. Do you want to know who in your family has depression, addictions, or a history of cancer? Perhaps you want to know more about why your mother and her mother never get along, by looking for the right clues you’ll be able to make a genogram that serves your goals. This will give you a clear idea of who you will need to approach for information to complete your diagram and whether this will be possible given people's ages and geographical location.  Luckily, you can always use email, Skype, and...


Подумайте, как бы вы себя чувствовали, если бы были одинокими. Подумайте о том, насколько вы взрослы. Будьте счастливы сами по себе.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Does the thought of being along give you anxiety? If so, then you are more likely to feel that any relationship is ideal, rather than the right relationship. You should not be willing to lower your standards to make a relationship feel right. It can be hard to be honest with yourself about something like this, but if you are searching for the right person, it doesn’t make sense to waste time with just any person. Are you really mature enough for a long-term relationship? In a long-term relationship, you have to consider the needs and wants of someone besides yourself. If you want to be successful in that relationship, you will also sometimes have to admit that you are wrong. This can be very difficult if you are still working on your maturity. Have you managed to become proud of who you are, flaws and all? Many people enter into relationships hoping that the other person will “fix” them, and make them happy. Unfortunately, this is not the case, at least not in the long-term. It is not an easy task, but it is important that you learn to make yourself happy without anyone else’s help. Understand that learning how to be happy is a difficult task for nearly everyone, and it won’t happen overnight.


Подумайте, как видят вас другие. Подумайте, что из себя представляют другие, прежде чем начнете говорить. Не доминируйте в разговоре. Делайте комплименты другим людям. Позвольте другим воспользоваться  вашими умениями. Не согласны с мнением других, так не заставляйте оппонентов чувствовать себя некомфортно. Говорите спасибо людям за их помощь. Принимайте комплименты с благодарностью.

Studies show that to be modest, you have to be aware of how your accomplishments and qualities stack up in front of others. Only then can you realize that you have a lot to be thankful for and that you shouldn't go around making other people feel bad about it. If you know you look like a runway model, then don't complain about your stringy hair to other people; if you know you're the most talented actor in your studio, then don't talk about how insecure you feel.  Write down the things you're good at. Be realistic -- how do you really stack up against others? Sure, you may not be completely happy in your career, relationship, or friendships, but think about how much you already have going for you. A lot of people are immodest because they don't realize how good they have it. They don't realize that they are bragging or complaining about the wrong thing because they may not see that they are better off than others. This has to do with knowing your audience. Make sure that you are not accidentally annoying or hurting other people with your careless comments. If you're in a great relationship, don't give your best friend all of the details if she's upset about not being able to find the right guy; if you're only having a minor setback at work, don't tell your unemployed brother all about it unless you want him to feel terrible.  Before you talk about something that is going great, or relatively not-so-great, in your life, look at who you're talking to. How is this person doing professionally or personally, and how would your statements make him feel? When you're talking to people you barely know, you should be even more discreet. Don't brag to someone when you have no idea where he is even coming from. Immodest people are comfortable with talking the whole time, completely taking over a conversation, and often talking about themselves. Who wants to hear all about YOU 24/7? Most likely, nobody at all. It's okay to chime in or to take over when you have something interesting to say, but if you can't seem to not...


Подумайте, как вы себя ощущаете в окружении других людей. Обратите внимание на резкую смену настроения. Поставьте под сомнение любого человека со вспыльчивым характером, который часто проявляется. Подумайте, как человек реагирует на простые вопросы? Прислушайтесь к комплиментам. Остерегайтесь людей, которые не могут или не умеют принимать отказы. Что происходит, когда вы решаете быть собой и делить что захотите? Проанализируйте, как человек ведет себя в трудной ситуации, когда ему нужно взять на себя ответственности или когда вам нужно принять взаимное решение.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Do you have any relationships in which you feel suffocated, bossed around, confused or distressed, or just plain fed up with being told what to do a lot of the time (and feeling very guilty that you keep giving in)? Is there someone in your life around whom you feel you have to tiptoe and be super careful to mollify or not anger? Do you know someone who seems to have "buttons" for going off at you at the simplest of things you say or do, often without rhyme or reason? If you feel that any of these situations have a ring of familiarity to them, then you may be dealing with a controlling person.  Controlling people can be male, female, or outside of the gender binary. Controlling relationships can be romantic or platonic. Be just as wary of a jealous friend who hates your significant other as you are of your significant other, especially if your friend is unhappy with their romances. Just because someone has a forceful personality doesn't make them a controlling personality. The test is: Do they allow you to be yourself, or do they unduly influence your behavior?  Distinguish people with strong boundary issues from controlling people by testing their reactions to other topics. If someone always blows up if they're touched without warning but doesn't react in a controlling way if you wear your hair differently or lose weight or gain weight, etc., that is a boundary issue. Other people's personal choices such as changing religion, dieting, grooming or exercise are boundary issues. Even if you think you're right and they're wrong, someone who's sensitive on any of these subjects is holding a boundary when it's about what they do with their life and how they're treated. It's when they start telling you who you are, what to wear, think, feel and do that they're being controlling. Don't feel too bad if you discover that you are sometimes controlling with other people in your life, especially if you grew up with a controlling parent. On a deep level, whatever you grew up with feels "normal" and it takes work to stop...


Подумайте, как обычно разговаривает этот человек. Обратите внимание на попытку дистанцироваться. Обратите внимание на скучные и затяжные ответы. Наблюдайте за манерами человека в процессе разговора.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If a person usually speaks slowly and deliberately but they are talking very quickly and jumbling their words, or if a fast talker suddenly speaks slowly, it’s probably a sign that they are lying. Watch for changes in verbal behavior as a sign of lying.  If you are trying to determine if a person is lying and you don’t know them very well, try asking them some questions that you know the answer to (like their name or profession) to gauge how they speak normally. Then ask them about the thing you think they might be lying about. A person’s normal behavior in low-stress conditions is called their “baseline.” People who lie typically try to distance themselves from the lie. This means that they typically refrain from using personal pronouns about themselves like “I,” “me,” or “mine.” Sometimes they will have to use these words in normal speech, but watch for decreased usage compared to how they normally speak. Liars might also use “him” and “her” instead of people’s names more frequently. Sometimes people who lie give indirect, long-winded responses to straight-forward questions that could have received a simple answer. Rambling is a sign of nervousness that often occurs when someone is lying. Of course, you should consider the person’s normal manner of speaking. Some people just ramble when they speak normally. So keep this in mind. The liar will seem nervous, speak quite quickly, and want to change the subject or leave as soon as they can. They may get defensive if you repeatedly ask them probing questions such as "Are you sure?" and "Is there something else you haven't told me?" because they want to deflect attention away from the lie.


Подумайте, какие болезни помогут вам получить пропуск домой. Для большей убедительности выберите распространенную болезнь. Не симулируйте большей одной болезни. Пожалуйтесь на общие симптомы, если просто хотите отдохнуть.

Simply complaining that you generally don’t feel well won’t likely get you sent home. Most schools have a set of guidelines that nurses follow to know when a kid needs to go home. Ask your friends what was wrong with them last time they were in the nurse’s office. You can also pay attention to any newsletters that your school sends home about student illnesses. Typically, a school will send you home if you:  Have a fever Have diarrhea Have vomited Another good option is to pay attention to whether or not any of your classmates have been sick. If there is an illness that has been passed around your school, you will probably have a pretty easy time convincing the nurse that you’ve contracted it.  Ask your friends who have been sick recently what symptoms they had. Make a mental note to include those when you talk to the nurse. Add a personal connection, if you can. Try, “I have a terrible sore throat. I did spend the night at Joey’s over the weekend. I hope I didn’t catch whatever he has.” Don’t plan to lay it on too thick. If you complain of too many things, the nurse might get suspicious. For example, don’t complain of diarrhea, a sore throat, and earache, body aches, and coughing. The nurse probably won’t believe that you’re really dealing with all of that. Instead, focus on 1 illness. If you want to fake stomach problems, for example, you could complain of cramping in your stomach and diarrhea. If your goal is not to get sent home, you’ll probably have an easier time convincing the nurse that you’re sick. If you just want to take some time out from class (maybe because you forgot to do the homework), aim to just get the nurse to let you rest in their office for a bit. You could try saying, “I have a pounding headache. I think it would really help if I could just be in here for a while where it is quiet.”

If it's hot throughout the year, leave your winter clothes behind (or vice versa). What's more, find out about the culture to see what's acceptable and what's not – for example, in some Muslim countries you have to cover your knees and shoulders in public and leave behind any clothes or items that aren't accepted or you won't be able to take into the country. Check the prices in the country you're moving to. If furniture and clothes there are really expensive, it may be better to bring a few more things with you, depending on the distance you're traveling. If, of course, that language is different than your own.  Otherwise, you could feel lost in that country. It would be great if you already spoke some of the language by the time you moved so that you could communicate with the locals. Although it is possible in many countries to survive speaking only English, if you are truly eager to become a part of your new country, you should master its language. After the move, those goals should serve as milestones on your path to assimilation, reminding you of the reason why you moved. Did you move to make more money? See the world? Meet different people? Advance your career? Often moving abroad is what you make of it – you could love it or you could hate it, depending on what mindset you go in with. If you embrace adventure and the wildly different culture, it could be the best experience of your life. One of the toughest moments of the moving process is leaving everything behind and starting over.  If you do not want to suffer in your new environment, it is important to be realistic with yourself about what you're leaving behind. Only after that will you be able to make the next step and move on.  Otherwise, you might miss home so badly that you will be tempted to give everything up and move back. Consider the phrase, "Once you leave, you can never come back." And in a figurative sense, it's true. If you come back, the place will not be the same. What's more, if you come back, you will not be the same. It's...


Подумайте, какие чувства вызывает у вас этот человек. Подумайте о привычках своих новых друзей. Выясните, ценит ли другой человек вашу дружбу.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you are hoping to build close friendships, don’t worry yourself with external characteristics, such as how the person looks or how much money he has. Instead, dig deeper and pay attention to internal signs of a healthy connection. Ask yourself the following about a potential friend:  Do I feel safe around this person? Can I be myself around him or her, or do I have to tiptoe around eggshells when we’re together? Does this person treat me with respect? Is he or she supportive of my ideas and goals? Can I trust this person? Is this person overly critical of me? Does this person take my kindness for granted? Good friends may discourage your participation in unhealthy lifestyle habits, such as excessive drinking. However, the reverse is also true. Friends can impact our choices and even unconsciously sway us to pick up unhealthy habits.  In University of Liverpool study, when one friend ordered an alcoholic beverage, 80% of the time, the other friend followed suit. Friends even matched how heavy the other friend drank, without even knowing.  If a potential friend has unhealthy habits or negatively influences your life, you may need to assess the value of that friendship. While drinking may not be a make or break for a new friendship, drug addiction or criminal activity might be red flags for you to stay away from a fledgling relationship. Deepening and maintaining a relationship requires continuous nurturing and attention.Therefore, a successful friendship must exhibit both giving and receiving of time, attention, and effort.  The give and take in a friendship may not always be equal. For example, your friend might be really stressed over her parents’ divorce and require more support for a time. However, if the friendship is always one-sided, and you are constantly giving of yourself or acting against your own needs or values, this may not be a friendship you choose to continue.


Подумайте, каких друзей вы бы хотели видеть рядом. Знакомьтесь с людьми, разделяющими ваше хобби. Анализируйте их поведение Выбирайте людей с похожими интересами и целями. Поговорите с теми, чьим советам вы доверяете.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

What qualities are you looking for in a friend? Determining these things ahead of time will help you know what to look for when you are making new friends. Search out people who have these positive qualities you want in your life.  Some qualities you might consider are kindness, honesty, loyalty, intelligence, or creativity. Think of ways to tell if people possess these qualities. For example, someone who makes good grades in school is probably intelligent. Someone who volunteers at a nursing home is probably kind. Someone who is very active in art class is probably creative. Try to become friends with people who have good morals. A good place to meet people like this is at your church youth group or in an activity group organized through your school. People who get involved in activities and in the community are less likely to cause problems. . Do this before you start hanging out with someone new. If they mouth off in school, get into fights, or bully others, don't get too close to them. Hanging out with likeminded people is important. The saying “you are what you eat” can be applied to the friends you choose as well. If you hang out with motivated, driven people that will begin to rub off on you as well. If you spend time with people who don’t care about school or who are not nice to others, those behaviors could eventually rub off on you. There are probably a lot of people in your life (parents, teachers, counselors) who have more life experience than you and would love to advise you on how to find and keep good friends. Take advantage of their advice by talking to them and asking their opinion. It might help!


Подумайте, какое расписание лучше выбрать для вашей диеты. Рассчитайте, сколько калорий вам требуется сжигать ежедневно. Рассчитайте время диеты.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Often it is tempting to set a diet timeline first, then figure out your calorie goals. However, this often leads to unrealistic dieting expectations, crash dieting and yo-yo dieting. To avoid this, figure out a healthy calorie deficit first in the "Calculate your calorie goal" step, then use this section to calculate how long it will take you to lose 20 pounds. To calculate your timeline subtract your calorie goal (from the "Calculate your calorie goal" step) from how many calories you burn per day (from the "Calculate total calories burned per day" step). This will give you how many calories you should be burning per day.  Example #1: If you burn 2695 calories a day (as calculated from the "Calculate total calories burned per day" step) and decided on a 30% deficit for a caloric goal of 1886 (from step "Calculate your calorie goal") then you would have a deficit of 2695 - 1886 = 806 calories per day. Example #2: If you burn 2695 calories a day (as calculated from the "Calculate total calories burned per day" step) and decided on a 15% deficit for a caloric goal of 2291 (from step "Calculate your calorie goal") then you would have a deficit of 2695 - 2291 = 404 calories per day. There are approximately 3,500 calories per pound of fat . Therefore there are 70,000 calories per 20 pounds of fat. That means in order to lose 20 pounds you will need to burn 70,000 calories more than you consume. To calculate your timeline, divide 70,000 calories by your daily calorie deficit (from the "Calculate your daily caloric deficit" step) to determine how many days your diet will take.  Example #1: If you have a daily caloric deficit of 806 calories you would need to divide 70,000 by 806 to get ~87 days. In other words, it will take you about 87 days (or 12.5 weeks) to lose 20 pounds if you are a a 6', 180 pound, 30-year-old, active man at a 30% deficit. Example #2: If you have a daily caloric deficit of 404 calories you would need to divide 70,000 by 404 to get 173 days. In other words, it will take you about 173 days (or...


Подумайте, какую проблему вам нужно решить. Не игнорируйте хорошее поведение мужа. Не стоит полностью игнорировать мужа, не произнося ни слова. Не игнорируйте мужа дольше нескольких дней. При необходимости обратитесь к психологу.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If you feel the need to ignore your husband, this is a sign of trouble in a relationship. While it's healthy to ignore or overlook certain flaws, there are some negative aspects of a relationship that need to be addressed.  If your husband has an anger problem, this warrants discussion. As stated, it can be healthy to ignore anger in the moment. However, if your husband habitually lashes out at you when he's mad you need to have a sit down talk.  Addiction is toxic to a relationship. If your husband has a problem with drugs or alcohol, you should talk to him about seeking treatment. Do not just ignore the problem.  Unless you have an open marriage, affairs should not be ignored. If you suspect infidelity, confront your husband. Taking your partner for granted can cause serious damage to a relationship. Even if you're frustrated with your husband, try to appreciate the good he does.  Even minor things, like going grocery shopping or taking out the garbage, deserve a "thank you" and a kiss. Most people get a buzz of happiness when someone expresses gratitude or affection. You often forget to appreciate someone if you've been together for a long time. Try to periodically remind yourself how  you would react if your husband was a stranger. You wouldn't hesitate to say "Thank you" if a stranger opened a door for you or offered your a seat on the bus. Do not forget to thank your husband. The silent treatment involves simply ignoring someone who upset you as a form of punishment. It's toxic to a healthy marriage. It's a passive-aggressive means of coping with a problem that only leads to miscommunication and confusion. You should never use the silent treatment on your husband as it's a form of manipulation. If you need some space for a few days, let your husband know why you are mad and why you may be more quiet than usual. Remember, ignoring someone is incredibly hurtful. Many people find being ignored worse than being yelled at or confronted. If you need your space for a set period of time, that's fine. It's also...

Unless you want to string your crush along forever, you need to be brave and tell them who you are. At some point they're going to want to know who is responsible for all of the sweet things you've done for them. Choose a convenient time for both you and your crush. For example, plan on meeting them after their last class of the day for the big reveal.  Listen to what they've been saying about their secret admirer. If it sounds like they're excited to find out who it is, then it's time to reveal yourself. If they don't seem interested, you may want to stop. You can't control another person's feelings and you should be respectful if they're feeling creeped out. Coffee shops, parks, and restaurants are all good starts because there will be people around but not so many that you won't have privacy. Remember, you don't want to scare your crush away so pick somewhere relaxing. A bench in a park can be a beautiful setting, but a dark movie theatre will make you seem like a stalker and not an admirer. You could write a note that says something like “I'll be wearing a red shirt and sunglasses.” Even though you're trying to convey an air of mystery, you need to be clear in your directions so that your crush can actually identify you. If you're already involved in this person's life, they may recognize you. However, this is your moment to show them that you're their mysterious and sweet admirer. After the big reveal, follow up by asking them on an official date so that you can continue to get to know each other.

Many schools and daycares are already closed. Additionally, it’s likely more schools and daycares will close or start early dismissals to help limit the spread of the virus. This can be really stressful if you’re a working parent, as you’ll need to find childcare. Find out about your childcare options, and try to make arrangements in advance so you’re prepared. For instance, you might ask a relative if they can care for your children if the schools and daycares close. Alternatively, you might talk to your boss about working from home or taking leave if this happens. While you don’t need to worry, you may not be able to go to work if there’s a coronavirus outbreak in your community. Businesses and other organizations will likely shut down so the virus stops spreading. To help you prepare for this, ask your boss if you could work remotely in the event of an outbreak. Discuss tasks you might perform, how you’ll be accountable, and hours you can work.  You might say, “I saw that the CDC might recommend workers stay home if there’s a coronavirus outbreak here. If that happens, I’m hoping I can work remotely. Can we discuss this?” Working from home won't be an option for everyone. However, it’s good to be prepared for this alternative if you can do some or all of your job tasks at home. You might be really worried about how you’ll support your family if you can’t work from home. Fortunately, there are organizations that can help. Local food banks may be able to help you stock your kitchen, while nonprofits like the Red Cross or Salvation Army might help with other financial needs. Make a list of places you can get help in your community.  Local faith organizations may also offer aid to people in need. Try not to worry. Everyone is going through this experience together, and the community will likely come together to help those in need.

Other pets, children, or a noisy environment can all cause your cat to feel stressed and avoid the litter box. Make sure that your cat’s litter box is kept in a place that is semi-dark, quiet, and secluded. If your cat’s box is in a high traffic area, she will be less likely to use it. Try using Feliway diffusers to help your cat feel more relaxed. This product releases a scent that some cats may find comforting. Your cat’s medical history may provide an explanation for why your cat has not been using the litter box. If you suspect that your cat is sick, take her to see a vet as soon as possible. Early treatment of an illness by help stop litter box problems as well as save your cat from pain and discomfort. Urinary tract infections and feline interstitial cystitis are common conditions that may cause your cat to urinate outside of the litter box.  Urinary tract infections may cause a cat to avoid the litter box, even after the infection has been treated. Your cat may still associate the litter box with pain and want to avoid it. Feline interstitial cystitis is another common cause of litter box aversion. Cats with feline interstitial cystitis may urinate in the litter box because they feel the need to urinate more often. Kidney stones or a blockage of your cat’s urinary tract may also result in a litter box aversion. Your cat may meow or howl while using the box and the fear of pain may continue even after treatment. Keep in mind that prompt treatment of these conditions is essential so that your cat does not develop a long lasting litter box aversion. Urine marking is when your cat sprays a bit of urine on a piece of furniture or other surface to mark her territory. The amount of urine is much less than a cat will eliminate when urinating. If your cat is displaying this type of behavior, many of the suggestions in this article will be helpful, but there are additional things that you will need to do to help stop your cat from urine marking.  Urine marking is most common in unneutered male cats but unspayed...

Did your hamster seem ill recently? Clues to this might be that it stopped eating or lost its appetite, it was drinking more than usual and you were having to clean out wet bedding more frequently, it smelled bad, it had lost a lot of weight, or its habits had changed radically, for example it had stopped playing on its wheel. These are all indicators of ill health and could indicate your hamster has died. On the other hand, if the hamster seemed perfectly healthy before hand and this stillness is unexpected, it doesn't rule out death but it makes hibernation more likely. How old is the hamster? An average lifespan is 18-24 months, with the odd hamster making it to 36 months. If your hamster is older than this, then it was very elderly, and the chances of it having passed away increase. Hibernation is temperature dependent. If the air temperature where the hamster was kept is above 20°C then hibernation is not very likely. On a hot day, consider if the hamster's cage is near an air conditioning unit. Air conditioners can kick out extremely cold air, which could cause your hamster to go into hibernation, so don't discount a low air temperature even in sweltering weather. Hibernation tends to happen at times when it would be difficult for the hamster to find enough resources to survive. These tend to be associated with harsh winters, when there are low temperatures, short day lengths, and a lack of food. Ask yourself if the hamster has more than 8 - 12 hours of daylight a day and has plenty of food. Scarcity of food teamed with low temperature and short day length could trigger hibernation.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

If your child is usually open and exuberant, but suddenly exhibits shy or secretive behaviour, this could be a sign that something is wrong. In many cases, children feel shame, embarrassment or confusion about what's going on, and since they don't know how to express their feelings, they keep it to themselves. Pay attention if your child seems quieter than usual. A child may become quiet for reasons other than the occurrence of molestation, such as being bullied, going through their parents' divorce, and other circumstances. However, it should be viewed as a red flag that could point to molestation, especially if you notice other warning signs as well. If your child suddenly begins acting younger than their age, be on high alert. If you can rule out other factors that could cause this change, such as bullying or another form of stress, it might be a sign of molestation. Here are a few examples of behaviours to watch for:  Bedwetting (after the age at which this normally occurs) Throwing tantrums and showing aggression for no apparent reason Clinging to you and crying when you have to depart after dropping the child off at school or daycare Most children experience nightmares or have insomnia every once in a while, so a few nights of poor sleep are probably nothing to worry about. However, if your child has regular nightmares, cries when you leave the room at night and is unable to fall asleep in their bedroom, this should be cause for alarm. Sometimes children who are being molested act out the abuse on toys or other children. You might see your child demonstrating a sexualized behaviour and have no idea where they could have learned it. Watch the way your child plays with toys and other kids, and don't dismiss it if you notice something unusual.  For example, a child who is being molested might touch a doll or toy inappropriately, or exhibit this behavior toward another child. A child might also use sexual words or phrases that they have never been taught. It is normal for young children to touch their...

This allows others to take the code you've made and improve on it. Open-source is a community-driven model of releasing, and you will likely see little profit. The benefits are that other programmers could take interest in your project and help expand the scope significantly. If you want to sell your software, you can create a storefront on your website to allow customers to buy and download your software. Keep in mind that if you have paying customers, they will expect a working and error-free product. Depending on your product, there are a variety of services that you can sell it through as well. After releasing your software, you will likely start receiving bug reports from new users. Categorize these bugs by their critical levels, and then start tackling them. As you update the program, you can release new versions or patches that update specific parts of the code. Strong post-release support can increase your customer retention and spread good word of mouth. . People will need to know your software exists before they start using it. Give out review copies to relevant review sites, consider creating a free trial version, write a press release, and do everything you can to spread the word about your software.

Depending on the application conventions in the industry you’re applying in, it may be inappropriate to include your hobbies on your resume at all. The potential employer may find it irrelevant and you don’t want that feeling to be attached to your application.  Research the corporate culture of the company you’re applying to. Some companies encourage employees to bring their interests into the creative workplace, for example, Google explicitly cultivates an “open culture” workplace where hobbies are welcomed. A hobbies section would be very appropriate for an application in the tech industry with a company like Google. However, if you’re applying for a position at an accounting firm, the corporate culture may not be as welcoming of your hobbies. Leave them off that resume. Whereas a college admissions officer is looking to get a sense of how you might develop over the course of your undergraduate career, a potential employer wants to know, as concisely as possible, whether you would fit into the workplace or not. Stick to 7 words or less per hobby or interest. Don’t dwell on how you feel at one with nature when you go biking every morning if you're applying for a job with a consulting firm. Simply say that you bike regularly and participate in races. Don’t list an interest if you’re not actually passionate about it — if it comes up in an interview, your lack of passion and knowledge will give you away as a resume passer.  Choose interests that not only mean a lot to you, but also demonstrate the kind of person you are. For example, “reading” is a fairly generic activity that doesn’t reveal that much about you. However, running marathons suggests that you possess a high level of dedication and that you can overcome obstacles. "Listening to music" doesn't tell your employee anything about you, but "I have practiced classical piano for 17 years," tells them a lot. "Volunteering," tells the employer something about you, but it's not as detailed as it could be. Say, instead, that you've volunteered weekly at the...

Will you need to hire help to work on your clothing line? Consider what sort of assistance you'll need, how many hours per week you'll require, and what you'll be able to pay.  If your production is at boutique level, you may be able to do all the cutting, stitching, and hemming yourself. If you plan to start a bit bigger, you'll definitely need to hire production help. Do you want your clothing to be produced locally? Organically? Are you willing to have it manufactured abroad for less money (and lower quality)? These questions will all affect who you decide to hire. Will you want a retail location? If so, you may want to hire help. Now it's time to make some fun aesthetic decisions! How you set up your brand will define what people associate with your clothing line, so choose wisely.   Choose a name. What name will represent your clothing line? You could use your own name (as did Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein and Marc Jacobs), a word you coin yourself (such as Rodarte or Marchesa), a word from another language (for instance, Escada means staircase or ladder in Portuguese), or words whose aesthetics you like (such as Iceberg, Mulberry or Imitation of Christ). Whatever you pick, make sure it's unique and recognizable. Your brand name and company name can and should be different. Your company name, for example, can be your initials or a variation of your own name, while the name of the collection (the clothing line) should be something more creative and representative of the style you're going for. Brainstorm a lot of different logos, but narrow it down to one and make sure you are completely sure about the one you choose. People are going to recognize you by your logo and it will confuse them if you keep changing it. Check to make sure the name you pick has an available domain name, and look into registering for a trademark (most jurisdictions allow for and encourage this).

Before you begin, think about what you will pray about. What are the things in your life that trouble you? What are you thankful for? How do you want to bring God into your life? What questions do you have? These are things which you may want to pray on. Knowing what to say ahead of time will make you feel more clear and comfortable when you go to pray. After you've thought about some of the things you'd like to talk to God about, consult with your priest, imam, rabbi, or a friend or family member whom you trust. Ask them what they think God might be able to help you with and what they think about your concerns and questions. They may open your eyes to questions and answers which you had never thought of. Once you are ready to pray, you will need to find an appropriate place and time to pray to God. This should be a quiet place where you can devote a good amount of time and concentration to your conversation with God, to show him your devotion. However, if you feel the need to pray quickly and in a less than ideal situation, go right ahead. You do not need to be anywhere special for God to hear you. He will understand your distress and cares only that you love him in your heart and try to follow him. You may want to have certain items when you pray, such as candles, a bible, the remains of a loved one, or other items which are significant to you. Have these available and respectfully placed. You will want to decide if you feel it is better to pray on your own or with others. Different faiths stress different methods but you should not feel constrained by the normal conventions of your denomination. Do what you feel is right in your heart, whether that means singing your prayers in a church full of people or facing Qibla alone in a corner.

Toilet training is not for everyone. If you and your cat do not have the right mentality, you might be better off sticking to the litter box.  If your cat is very young, less than six months old, or already has issues using a litter box, toilet training might not be the best option. Cats who are older and are already comfortable with their litter box are easiest to toilet train.  If your cat is skittish, he might struggle with litter box training. Shyer cats generally prefer to cover their feces and urine to protect themselves from potential predators.  Toilet training takes time, organization, and dedication. If you're not generally a well organized person or if you're very busy, you might be better off sticking with litter. Many vets advise against toilet training cats. Familiarize yourself with the criticisms of toilet training so you can make a well informed decision about whether it's right for you and your pet.  First off, toilet training goes against a cat's natural instincts. Cats have a natural tendency to dig and bury when eliminating. Using the toilet, even after proper training, can cause stress for a cat. You do not want using the bathroom to be a stressful event as it can lead to behavioral and health issues for your cat.  The toilet lid must always be left open. If you or a house guest accidentally closes the toilet lid, your cat will eliminate elsewhere.  Older cats or cats with joint problems will have trouble reaching the toilet and maintaining balance on the rim. There is a risk for injury with toilet training, especially for senior cats. Toilet training, even when done properly, frequently causes setbacks. If your cat is resistant to a step in the process, he might begin eliminating elsewhere. If this occurs, take a step back in toilet training and see if this helps. It's a good idea to have a lot of cleaning supplies on hand when toilet training. In all likelihood, there will be at least one accident along the way.

Before going forward with the process -- which can be difficult under some circumstances -- you should know the consequences of a “yes” or “no” answer from you girlfriend’s parents.  There are two conditions under which you’d ask for your girlfriend’s parents to marry:  You might be asking for permission to marry.  In other words, if your girlfriend’s parents say no to the marriage, she will obey their wishes and reject any marriage offer from you. You might be asking for your girlfriend’s parents approval.  This is distinct from the request for permission.  Asking for approval of the marriage means that they support the marriage of you and your girlfriend.  If denied, your girlfriend may or may not accept a marriage proposal.  Even if she remains open to the possibility of marriage, you might not want to go forward with the process.  If you do end up getting married, prepare for some awkward family get-togethers at the very least. You should be comfortable around your girlfriend’s parents before asking them for permission to marry.  They, likewise, will feel more comfortable granting approval to the marriage if you are not meeting them for the first time when asking their permission to marry their daughter. If you have not had the opportunity to meet your girlfriend’s parents before deciding to ask them for her hand in marriage, wait until after you have to ask for their permission to marry. When presenting them with news that their daughter might get married, it is important to meet them face-to-face.  This demonstrates that you take seriously the notion of marriage and the proposal process.  Ask them to meet you for a brief afternoon outing.  If they ask why you want to get together, then you could say something like, "I have something important that I want to talk to you about." Do not call your girlfriend’s parents on the phone to express your intentions for marriage or ask them for permission over the phone, unless you have no other option. Asking in person is the best option. Do not send an email or a...

What are you trying to avoid or establish? If you have no clear goal, then becoming a hermit will merely be a passing phase. Is this a temporary means of rebellion? Is this to avoid a certain someone or people in general? Is this a type of prolonged "time out" for yourself? Do you feel a spiritual calling to hermitism? What are your personal reasons? Is it the appeal of not being with people or is it the simplicity of the lifestyle that draws you? Does it seem like a passing phase or is it something that's been in the back of your mind for years? It is the symptom of a larger issue? Or is it the only possible solution? Being a hermit doesn't mean you're locked inside your house. Plenty have communication with the outside world or even live with another person. Over half live in urban areas. Knowing that there's a spectrum to being hermitic, where do you fall? In today's world, it's difficult to be entirely self-sustaining. Do you want to build your own house, grow your own food, and rig up your own well system? Or would you rather stay put in your apartment and order Chinese takeout? Both are their own versions of the hermit life. In the spirit of hermitdom, it is probably best to choose somewhere hidden, small, and modest. Better still if it's environmentally friendly. The more bucolic and out-of-the-way, the better. But if you happen to have a place in the middle of Manhattan, that'll work too (just get sound-proof windows). As for the interior, generally hermits desire simple lives. Some have cable, computers, and are connected, while others spend their hours praying, gardening, and being entirely removed from the outside world. If you are planning on becoming a hermit to rid yourself of the evils and woes of society, you may want to weed through your possessions, removing the clutter from the world around you. Do you want to go cold turkey? Just one day wake up in your bed, take a look at the door, and know you'll never leave the woven entrails of your Berber carpet ever again? Or will you slowly limit...

If you insult someone without taking a moment to gather your wits, you'll probably just be plain defensive or come across as confused. When you insult them, take a small amount of time to think about it. Not too much or they'll catch on, but a long pause is just fine. If you're short on ideas use a previous insult and modify it. Chances are, they won't catch it. Take a few deep breaths (draw your breath in noisily if it helps) concentrate on what needs to be said and draw on your pre-rehearsed comebacks (see step 2). Think up appropriate ways to insult the different people who might insult you. If you have a starting point, the rest will come easier. If you don't take their insults seriously, they won't be able to insult you seriously.

It’s understandable to want to push others away when you’re afraid of being hurt or let down. But, doing so can prevent you from having someone really special in your life. Try to get to the root of what’s driving your feelings. Journal or talk it out with a friend. For example, maybe you fear being cheated on because that happened in the past. Or, maybe you are afraid that falling in love with someone will make you give up on your dreams. If you consistently get burned when it comes to your love life, it's not surprising that you would want to stop falling in love. However, reflecting on your typical experiences with dating and relationships may help you change your luck with love.  Ask yourself questions like: What do I usually do in these situations? Can I identify any common patterns that might influence the outcome? For instance, during your reflection, you might realize that you regularly enter into relationships before you have healed from a breakup. In these rebound dates, you're just looking for someone so you're not alone, but the people you choose aren't good matches. Change something about your habits to change your luck with dates. For instance, maybe you always pick up dates at clubs or bars. Perhaps joining a club or visiting a park might help you find a different date that leads to different results. Another example is pushing people away because you  fear abandonment. Then, when they leave, it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy. Try letting someone in for a change--the relationship just might turn out differently. Another reason you may want to stop falling in love is because you always pick the same type of partner. Maybe you choose someone who is unavailable, who is a bad influence, or who can't commit. Changing your type could lead to a different outcome.  Think about the type of partner you typically fall for. Now, when you're ready to date again, go for someone who is the complete opposite. For example, if you typically go for the "bad guy" demeanor, choose someone who is more...

No one is perfect, and you've never noticed their little quirks before, so why would they pay so much attention to yours? If you wouldn't think or say such things about a best friend, why do you think or say them about yourself? Try to be a good friend to yourself, too. Some ways to be your own best friend include the following:  Even if you don't feel it at first, at least act like there's no need to worry. In time, it'll also feel that way too. Your greatest strength lies in between stimuli and your response to it, so try to take control.   Always picture yourself like you know you look and feel good in front of others, but don't think about it too much because it will already be embedded. Catch yourself putting yourself down or comparing yourself to others. Don't scold yourself; simply notice it and tell yourself it's time to stop and find more constructive ways of thinking about yourself instead. It is an effective way to push yourself. When you feel that doing something will make you feel confident and excited, but can't do it because of anxiety or self-consciousness, then at the same time, challenge yourself. For example, say to yourself "I dare you to put yourself in an awkward situation." Another example would be, "Go to that girl/guy and talk to him/her, even if it doesn't make any sense." Remember, don't curse or beat yourself even if you fail the challenge, in fact give yourself a reward for even trying. Yep, that's right––not in a self-deprecating sort of way, but in a humble and witty way to acknowledge that you're not perfect and you don't care. After you drop a jar of peanut butter in front of someone you fancy and watch in horror as it shatters into pieces and splatters peanut butter chunks on the floor, burst out laughing at your inherent clumsiness, cracking a joke that you should be required to wear double-sided tape on your hands––and then apologize and help clean it up. Don't care about the triggers for self-consciousness too much. If you feel self-consciousness arising within you, tell...

Many plants do well when you start them from seeds. Check your local garden center for seed packets and look at the label to see how long they take to grow, when is the best time to plant them, and how much water they need.  Growing from seed can take anywhere from one to four months depending on what you are growing, so it is important to plan ahead. Growing from seeds is the cheapest option, as a pack of seeds costs only a few dollars or cents. Full grown plants purchased from a gardening store can cost anywhere from $1 to $50 each. Growing from seed has the advantage of allowing you to start the seed in a container and keep it indoors or put it right into the ground. However, planting a seed in a container and starting it indoors may result in a healthier plant than starting outdoors in the ground. It may also provide your plant with an earlier start since you will not have to wait for the last frost. The benefit of transplanting a mature plant into your soil or container is that it is already partially grown and will bear fruit sooner. The plant will also be more likely to survive and thrive. Transplanting mature plants takes only a few minutes of work once the rest of your garden has been prepped. Check your local garden store for mature plants and make sure to check the tags on the plants to determine if they will work for the type of garden you are planning. If you choose to grow flowers, you also have the option of planting bulbs. Bulbs are easy to plant, and some of them (the perennials) will come back every year. Some bulbs are annuals and will need to be replanted every year.  Keep in mind that bulbs only bloom for a few weeks at a time. Check your local garden store for bulbs that you can plant in your garden and enjoy year after year, such as tulips, daffodils and alliums.

If the person is a long-time or best friend, this is usually not the best tactic for ending the friendship completely. If you just want to step back a little (maybe going from besties to just friends, or friends to acquaintances), the gradual withdrawal can work. But if you want your oldest friend out of your life, you owe it to the friendship to have a conversation with her. Still, you may want to start the process by putting a little distance between you and her.   If the person is in your life 24/7 (you have every class together, hang out in the same group, and involved in the same activities), you probably want to try the gradual approach. Telling her point-blank that you don’t want to be friends when she’s this entangled in your life will probably make a huge mess.  If the friendship seems to be on its way out anyway (like if neither one of you seems to be able to find time for each other), just let it fade out on its own. It’s not necessary to tell her you no longer want to be friends. Don’t cut her off completely with no explanation. Gradually withdrawing from a friendship is different from “ghosting,” which means you ignore her attempts to reach out to you and basically pretend you don’t know her. This is hurtful, confusing, and will probably lead to some drama. Be aware that this method can still cause hurt feelings. Even if you don’t tell the person “I don’t want to be your friend anymore,” he or she will probably figure it out and feel confused and upset. When your friend wants to make plans, tell her you’re really busy. Homework, family, religious obligations—these are all reasons you can give for being unable to hang out. Be slow in responding to her texts and try not to talk on the phone as often. When you do talk, keep the conversations relatively short.  Remember, don’t be mean or abrupt with her. You’re not trying to hurt her feelings here, so just keep it light and say things like “I’m sorry, I’ve really got to run!” If you’re uncomfortable pretending to be busy when your friend calls, then...

False friends may frequently lie, break promises, or pull disappearing acts when you need them most. Reflect on the friendship over the past several weeks or months. Has this friend regularly let you down in some way? If so, you may be dealing with a fake friend. If your friend is constantly disappointing you, you’ll have to decide which is the best option—to  lower your expectations of the friendship or  let them go completely. Reflect on how you feel during or after being with this friend. Do you regularly feel overlooked or ignored because they need to be at the forefront of every conversation or decision? If so, your friend may not have your best interests at heart.  You should feel better after spending time with your friends, not severely drained or annoyed. If your friend can’t seem to focus on anyone else but themselves, they may want an audience, not a friend. However, keep in mind that your friend might just need some time to mature. They might even respond to some gentle constructive criticism. For example, try saying, “I sometimes feel frustrated when we hang out because we spend so much time talking about what’s going on in your life. I feel like you don’t make much time to listen to me.” Friendliness and compassion are at the core of good friendships. If your friend has a host of inconsiderate behaviors, you may need to reconsider the relationship.  For instance, your friend may fight with you and always expect you to be the one who apologizes. This isn't a healthy, balanced friendship. Your friend may also bail on you when you seem to need them most, like the time you went through a breakup and they flaked on you to go to a party. Does your friend care about who you are as a person? If so, they should come to your orchestra performances and ask you how cheerleading tryouts went. They should also remember your birthday and other important events. If your friend belittles or laughs at your interests—or never shows up to anything important—they may not support you. Everyone makes mistakes. A good...

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Sometimes, people demonstrate their worst traits around us because we unwittingly provoke them. Are you always turning in assignments late or asking for additional time? Your own “I’ve got all the time in the world”, laid-back attitude could be contributing to this person’s edginess. Do you need to change?  While your laid-back approach to life may be a part of your charm, it can be frustrating for co-workers or friends who are depending on you. It might be time to think about how you can work on being more mindful of their needs as well. This can be as simple as opening up better lines of communication so they know you are open to change. We all have tendencies that may seem annoying to others. Just as you hope those around you accept you for you, the same is true for accepting the best and worst of those around you.  You may have to get used to people getting impatient if communication isn’t your strong point. A big part of becoming impatient is often the unknown, so if you find those around you becoming a little short it might be useful to figure out why this is happening to you specifically.  If you find in the work place or at home there are certain people who are almost always impatient with you, try asking them for feedback about what makes this happen. If they see you as being disorganized for example, ask them for feedback to take small steps to change that. This can go a long way to not only change your behavior but also tells them you are open to doing better. Empathy really means stepping into the other person’s shoes to see how they might view the situation. Instead of having an emotional response about their impatience, stop to think about where it could be coming from and consider the other person’s role in the task or situation. A big part of empathy can be tied to clearly understanding how your part of the assignment or task at hand affects others. For example, if your coworkers have to wait for your part of a report to start theirs, it might make sense that they are impatient if they do not...

One of the easiest ways to make money on the side is to sell things you no longer need. Look around your house or yard for things you have but are willing to part with for some money. You will have the easiest time earning some extra cash this way if the items are in good condition and are desired by others (it will be hard to sell a broken video game console, or your personal collection of gum wrappers, for instance). Things that can have good resale value include:  Books Video games CDs or records DVDs Gently-used name brand clothing Jewelry Smartphones Computers Tablets Musical instruments and equipment Bicycles Cans and bottles (in some states, you can get a refund for these; otherwise, you might be able to sell them to a recycling center) You might already know some friends that would like to buy your stuff. If not, you'll need to find some ways to advertise the things you have and connect to buyers. Some options include:   Online auction sites such as eBay  “For Sale” postings (these can be posted to a bulletin board, in a newspaper, or on an online classifieds board like Craigslist)  Online retailers like Amazon or AbeBooks.com (these sites usually charge a small fee or percentage of your profit) Yard sales Flea markets  Pawn shops  Trade-in at stores (this works for certain items; some stores will buy used clothing, CDs and Records, or books, for instance) Deciding how much to sell you stuff for can be difficult. If you are selling via an auction, you can let the price be determined by the highest bidder. Otherwise, you can either set a price or ask potential buyers to make you an offer. You are more likely to make a sale, however, if you set a price for your buyers.  Your price might be determined by market demand. For instance, if you are selling a used smartphone that you know people can purchase for $100, you are most likely to make a sale if you sell it for $100 or less. You can get a good sense of the price to sell an item by looking for how much comparable items sell for online. For instance,...

Make a list of your most pleasurable moments. Include as many details as possible, such as who you were with, what you were doing, where you were, etc. Reflect on what these have in common. Was it the type of people you were with? The amount of excitement produced? Or simply the setting, like being in nature or in a big city? As you realize the conditions under which your body has received the most pleasure in the past, try maximizing the amount of time you spend in similar situations in the future. Every person has a unique body, which means you'll need to experiment and find out what gives you pleasure. Research suggests that less than half of Americans describe themselves as particularly happy with their present conditions, partly because they're not entirely certain about what actually makes them happy. Start off simply by thinking back on all of the times you would describe as happy. Part of having a unique bodily structure and chemistry is coming to terms with the fact that some bodies will naturally be better at some activities than others. If you max out your height growth at 5 foot 2 inches, for example, odds are you won’t become a world class center in the NBA. But, you might become a particularly good horse jockey. Learning to accept your body means learning to accept that your body is better at performing certain actions as opposed to others. It might take you some time to figure out what activities those are. If you aren’t sure what activities your body is naturally suited for, spend some time experimenting with ones you’d never imagine yourself to be interested in. Take a class in yoga or pottery. Attend an improvisational performance meeting. Just like Spinoza said, there’s no way to know what your body can do until you do it. Even people with terrible body image can find something about their bodies to appreciate. It's important that you learn to love and appreciate all of your good qualities, including physical ones. Don't allow yourself to get hung up on qualities that bother you, only focus...

It could be that they're not actually giving you the cold shoulder. Maybe they, or someone they care about, is ill or having personal problems. You won't know for sure until you ask them, but if you notice they seem more withdrawn with other people, too, it might not be the cold shoulder at all.  If you notice a really severe personality change and other mutual friends do, too, talk to the person immediately. They could be in a position where they really need help. Keep in mind that they might not even be aware they're giving you the silent treatment. People can withdraw from others for a variety of reasons without realizing it. If this isn't the first time they have given you the cold shoulder, ask yourself a few questions. Have they treated you this way before? Was it in response to something you said or did that they didn't like? If so, you might be in a  manipulative or controlling relationship. If you are in a manipulative, controlling, or abusive relationship, you might want to see a therapist to discuss the relationship and your place in it. It can also help to share your concerns about your relationship with a trusted friend or family member, who can support you during a difficult time. You want to feel like you said what you needed to say, so plan it ahead of time. It's easy to get nervous or defensive, or to come off the wrong way if you aren't prepared. Close your eyes and imagine you're alone with this person and say out loud what you want to say.


Подумайте, что произойдет, если вас вдруг выведут на чистую воду. Подумайте о последствиях того, если вы просто скажете правду. Сравните последствия.

Given the above summary, write a detailed text in English for it.

Before making up an excuse, try to consider the consequences of getting caught. Review your school's policy regarding lying to teachers.  Refer to the syllabus for that class. There may be a section about honesty that goes over the consequences of lying to a teacher. You should also look at your school's handbook if you have a copy. See if there are any sections about what happens if you breach academic honesty policies. Consequences can vary from teacher-to-teacher. In some cases, you may only get a strict talking to. However, some teachers may be required to report these kinds of behaviors to the principal and your parents. This could land you in more serious trouble both at home and at school. What would happen if you simply told your teacher you forgot to do the assignment? What are the consequences of late and missing work in that class?  It may depend on the assignment. Late work may not be accepted, but if the assignment is only worth 10 points, is this really a big deal? However, if the assignment is worth 15% of your grade, it may be worth it to ask for an extension. Talk to other students who've had this teacher in the past. How has this teacher reacted to late or missing work? Some teachers may accept late work for lower points. Some teachers may allow you to turn in work late if it's your first time. If this is the case, it may be a good idea to simply admit you didn't do the assignment. Once you've looked into the consequences for getting caught lying and admitting you didn't do the assignment, compare and contrast. This can help you decide if lying to your teacher is really worth the risk.  You can make a pro and con list for each scenario. Write down the possible benefits and possible drawbacks of each option. For example, you can write on the top of a piece of paper "Lying To My Teacher" and then have two columns, one for "pro" and one for "con." Under "pro," you may write something like, "Assignment is worth a lot of points - an extension could help my overall grade." Under "con," you could...

Was it a shared interest or passion? A hobby you both enjoy? Try participating in this interest together and looking for new activities you both enjoy to help grow your relationship.  For example, maybe you met your boyfriend at a comic book convention and found that you have a shared love of anime. Look for ways to build on this interest, such as watching new anime shows together and talking about them. Or perhaps you met your boyfriend at a concert and learned you have very similar tastes in music. Get tickets to go to another concert together or listen to a favorite band’s new album together. If you discovered that you felt uncomfortable because of your boyfriend's behavior, then give him time to change it.  Some people are not interested in changing who they are or their behavior. If you find that this is the case with your boyfriend, then you will have to consider whether you can continue to endure the behavior that makes you feel uncomfortable. Perhaps he was doing something that he thought you liked or wanted him to do, like showing off in front of others. When he learns that you would rather he not do that, he will want to change that to make you happy. Building trust takes time. However, when you consider the “innocent until proven guilty” philosophy, it is helpful to trust your boyfriend until he gives you a reason not to do so.  This will be hard when you are someone who has been badly hurt (emotionally) in previous relationships, especially ones in which your trust was betrayed. However, your new boyfriend did not do those things to you, and he deserves to have your trust, at least until he does something to lose it. You will find yourself relaxing around him more and feeling more comfortable when you allow yourself to trust him. Additionally, he will feel more comfortable knowing that he has your trust, which helps the relationship. While it is true that some couples have very few issues, no relationship is perfect. It will take some time for the 2 of you to work out the kinks and learn how to...

Not listening to what you say is a red flag—but how much of a red flag it is depends on the circumstances. At best, he is seriously misguided, and at worst, he is potentially violent and very unsafe. You always have a right to say no; this is important in considering whether and how to protect your safety. Learn how to  read emotions. A tense or harsh tone of voice may indicate someone is angry or upset. Facial cues might indicate the same, such as drawn in eyebrows, dilated nostrils, and a hard, piercing stare. If you notice these signs, try to end the interaction as soon as possible, or get in sight of others. If you feel that this guy is likely to hurt you or make you extremely uncomfortable, you're probably right. If you think that he isn't horrible but just misguided, then you're probably right. Err on the side of playing it safe. You don't want to get hurt. Learn to trust your gut. How do you feel in your body when you are around this person? Does your heart beat fast in alarm? Do your fists clench? Do you find yourself holding your breath? All of these could be bodily signs that this person is making you uncomfortable, even if he has a smile on his face. Direct confrontation may lead to escalation, so avoid telling him off; he might start threatening you or turn violent. Trust your instincts and find ways to either end the interaction or get around others. For example, you might look at your watch and suddenly exclaim that you are late for a meeting or appointment. This can be a good way to get away from the person. It also demonstrates that someone somewhere is waiting on your arrival, and will be wary if you are late. Some men become loud, threatening, or violent if a woman keeps saying no. He is less likely to do this if you are somewhere with more witnesses, and you are more likely to run into a kind bystander who can help you out.  Crowded areas are far safer than isolated places. Look for other women. Many women can recognize the signs that a woman is being harassed by a guy, and can swoop in to...

One cause of petechiae is straining too much for too long. For instance, a long coughing fit or an overemotional bout of crying can lead to petechiae. You can also get petechiae from vomiting or straining while lifting weights. It's also a common symptom to have after you've given birth. Certain medications can be the cause of petechiae. For instance, anticoagulants such as warfarin and heparin can cause petechiae. Similarly, drugs in the naproxen family, such as Aleve, Anaprox, and Naprosyn can also cause petechiae.  A few other drugs that can cause petechiae include quinine, penicillin, nitrofurantoin, carbamazepine, desipramine, indomethacin, and atropine.  If you think one of your medications is causing petechiae, talk to your doctor. She can evaluate whether you need to be on that particular medicine or whether you can switch to something else. Specific infectious diseases can also lead to this problem. Anything from a bacterial infection to a fungal infection can cause petechiae, such as mononucleosis, scarlet fever, strep throat, meningococcemia, as well as a number of less common infectious organisms. Petechiae can also be a symptom of other diseases that disrupt appropriate blood clotting, such as leukemia and other bone marrow cancers. It can also be the result of a vitamin c deficiency (also known as scurvy) or a vitamin k deficiency, as both are required for proper blood clotting. It's worth noting that some treatments, such as chemotherapy, can also result in petechiae. This disease causes you to have clotting problems. It does so by taking away some of your platelets, which are found in your blood. Doctors do not know the exact mechanism by which this occurs, hence the term "idiopathic" (a word that indicates the cause is unknown). This disease can lead to petechiae and purpura because platelets usually work to plug up any small tears in your blood vessels. When you don't have enough platelets, your blood can't repair vessels properly, leading to bleeding underneath the skin. That can cause...

To start, place your arms around the girl you want to carry. You can place one arm around her back and the other arm around the bend in her knees. Have her place her own arms arounds your shoulders to make the process of picking her up easier. When lifting an object heavier than a few pounds, you want to lift with your legs instead of your back. This prevents back strain. Squat down and position your arms around the girl. Then, move upward, lifting your own body with your legs instead of your back.  You can keep your balance by spreading your feet apart slightly before lifting, providing you with a wider base. If you feel you're losing your balance, you may want to set the girl down and start over just to be safe. When carrying a heavy object, you should keep that object close to your body. A human body is no different. If you carry a girl closer to you, the process will feel more intimate and romantic.  Pull the girl in close to you. Have her pull herself in close by nestling in your arms. You can gently squeeze her legs and back, bringing her body closer to your body. When carrying a heavy object, keep your back, shoulders, and neck straight. Try to consciously bring your shoulders back when carrying a girl, straightening out your back. You may stumble a bit as you carry a person, but try to do your best to keep your body straight. Imagine a vertical line is drawn between your ankles and the tip of your head. You do not want to drop a person you are carrying. This can cause injury. For added safety, ask that the girl hold onto you. She can gently wrap her arms around your shoulders for support. As most people weigh over 100 pounds, carrying a person can be strenuous work. Only carry a girl as long as you feel comfortable. When you begin to feel strain in your muscles, gently put the girl down.  Squat slightly, lowering your body with your legs and not your back. Lower the arm that's holding her legs, allowing her to safely place her feet onto solid ground. Help her stand back upright if she stumbles at all...

Suede isn't an ideal material for winter boots if you live in a very wet climate. While the boots can be protected by commercial products, chemicals in these can weaken the fabric over time. Moreover, dampness and salt stains gradually destroy the suede.  One solution can be to only wear suede boots when it's not going to rain and when the sidewalks are obviously cleared of snow.  Or, accept that suede boots won't look as good at the end of the season as they did at the beginning! Synthetic boots may be more durable for some purposes. This will depend on your wearing preferences and the comfort of the boot. Ask a retailer for specific advice when purchasing your winter boots. There are some commercial products available that you can apply to your boots before you wear them out in the weather. Some products include:  Waterproofing to stop material from becoming spotted in water or salt. These usually come in aerosol sprays and are sold at shoe stores or by the manufacturer.  Oils, waxes, or rubs that create a protective layer on the boot material. You can find these at leather-repair stores, shoe stores, or hardware stores.  Protective agents that keep the boots from fading or falling apart.  These are often recommended by the boot manufacturer. Always read the instructions accompanying any waterproofing or cleaning product. Some are flammable, some require good ventilation and some require careful application. For your own safety, be aware of all the requirements for using the product before using it. When you do use a product, always test it on a small, inconspicuous part of the boot. That way, it will not ruin the whole boot.

Annotating is a way to keep your mind active as you read. Highlighting or underlining important words and phrases can help you to retain more of what you read and it will also make it easier to go back to find important passages later on. Make sure that you always read with a highlighter and pencil on hand. Underline or highlight things that are confusing, interesting, important, or that you want to ask questions about in class. Writing in the margins can help you to draw connections between concepts and register your reactions to the text. Keep a pen handy at all times and jot down your ideas and questions in the spaces next to the text.  You can write whatever you want in the margins. For example, you can sum up your reactions to passages by using words like, “interesting” or “confusing.” You can also use sticky notes to expand on your annotations. This is a good option if you have a lot to say about what you have just read or if you cannot write in the text, such as because it is a library book or rental. After you finish annotating a text, go back over your annotations and read through them. As you do so, write any questions that you have about your annotations or anything that you’d like to bring up in class. For example, if you underlined something because it does not make sense, then you might turn it into a question, such as “How does annotating help you to retain more of what you read?” For simple questions, you can search for an answer to this question on your own. For more complex questions, you can ask your instructor to clarify for you.

Some people think that self-love is selfish, and that feeling good about yourself is arrogant. If the person you’re helping is guilty about self-love, emphasize that there's nothing wrong with having a positive self-image.  Explain that healthy self-love involves recognizing their strengths, accepting their weaknesses, being proud of their achievements. Distinguish healthy self-love from boasting about accomplishments to make others feel bad, which is probably a sign of low self-esteem. Mention that taking care of themselves is part of self-love. For example, taking time off from work to avoid burnout isn’t selfish. It’s a necessary part of maintaining physical and mental health. Remind them that self-love is not the same as selfishness. Instead, describe it as being “self-full.” This means loving and caring for themselves, which ultimately will make it easier for them be there for others. Have them write down their talents, their positive personality traits, and the hobbies they enjoy. Examples might include gardening, having a great sense of humor, or being good at a sport.  If they have trouble coming up with positive traits, let them know what you admire about them. Say, “You have so many great qualities! You’re a hard worker, you’re great at tennis, and you’re always eager to help your family and friends.” Encourage them to focus on their positive qualities, but try not to be bossy or give your loved one unsolicited advice. Tell the person you’re helping that there are external and internal sources of self-esteem. External sources are based on the opinions of other people, and they’re more superficial than internal sources.  Tell them, “Your self-worth should come from within, not from other people. Instead of wanting to get good grades so other people think you’re smart, study hard to reach your personal goals or because you value knowledge.” Say, “It’s fine to feel good when someone compliments you, but don’t let other people’s opinions define you. Suppose someone makes fun of you for taking piano...

People digging into your personal life with questions about getting married can bring up all sorts of feelings, making you think you’re incomplete or inadequate in some way. It doesn’t have to be so serious though. A good way to respond to nosy people is with a little bit of self-deprecation, like:  ”Oh, I’ve actually been asked three times, but I’ve always said no. Silly me!” ”I want to get pregnant first.” ”My doctor says I’m certified unmarriable.” When people constantly bug you with questions about getting married, it can feel like a burden on you. Remind yourself that it’s not anyone’s business and take some of that burden away. Try shocking or poking fun at them as a way to deal with things by responding with things like:  ”Oh wow! Are you asking me to marry you! Yes! I will!” ”Marriage? Well, I’d like to keep having sex, so….” ”I did get married. I just didn’t send you an invitation.” If you’re in a relationship, people may pester just you with questions about getting married, which isn’t very fair. To be funny and brush these questions aside, try coming back with something like “Oh, when are we getting married? Your guess is as good as mine. Why don’t you ask Joachim?”

The heat and moisture of steam help to break up and dissolve mucus deep in your lungs and throat. Take a hot shower or fill a bowl with very hot water and inhale as much steam as you can without coughing. Breathe in steam for at least 15-20 minutes 1-2 times every day until your symptoms let up.  If you’re inhaling steam from a bowl of hot water, place your face over the bowl and set a towel over your head to trap in the steam. Hold your face there for at least 15 minutes and breathe deeply. You can choose to add in a few drops of peppermint or eucalyptus essential oil, which may aid in breaking up the mucus. Humidifiers fill the air with moisture which, when drawn into your lungs, can loosen congestion and open up your airways. The humidity can also help to open your nasal passages so you can breathe much easier. Situate the device so that it sprays its moisture towards the top of your bed, and make sure it’s within 6–10 feet (1.8–3.0 m) of your head.  Using a humidifier will have the greatest positive effect if the air in your house tends to be dry. If you use the humidifier nightly, you’ll need to refill it every 3–4 days, or whenever it runs dry. with a saline solution for 1–2 minutes to loosen congestion. Gargling is an effective way to break apart mucus in your airways. Mix 1⁄2 cup (120 mL) of warm water with 1–2 tablespoons (12.5–25 g) of salt. Stir the mixture to dissolve the salt a bit, and then take a mouthful. Gargle it as far down your throat as you are able for 1–2 minutes, then spit the salt water out. Gargle like this 3–4 times a day until your congestion starts to break up. Lie down with your head elevated, and place the hot pack or cloth over your sternum. Slip a piece of cloth beneath the hot pack to act as a barrier and prevent scalds. Allow the heat to soak in through your skin for 10–15 minutes. Repeat this 2-3 times a day in order to get as much mucus as possible out of your lungs.  Applying a hot pack or steaming hot cloth on your throat and chest will help soothe congestion and warm...

This article covers the basics, but it only scratches the surface of C programming and all the associated knowledge. A good reference book will help you solve problems and save you from a lot of headaches down the road. There are lots of communities, both online and in the real world, dedicated to programming and all of the languages that entails. Find some like-minded C programmers to swap code and ideas with, and you will soon find yourself learning a lot.  Attend some hack-a-thons if possible. These are events where teams and individuals have time limits to come up with programs and solutions, and often foster a lot of creativity. You can meet a lot of good programmers this way, and hack-a-thons happen regularly across the globe. You don't have to go back to school for a Computer Science degree, but taking a few classes can do wonders for your learning. Nothing beats hands-on help from people who are well-versed in the language. You can often find classes at local community centers and junior colleges, and some universities will allow you to audit their computer science programs without having to enroll. Once you have a grasp of C, it wouldn't hurt to start taking a look at C++. This is the more modern version of C, and allows for a lot more flexibility. C++ is designed with object handling in mind, and knowing C++ can enable you to create powerful programs for virtually any operating system.

A bat house does not need to be large, but when considering a potential location there are a few points you should keep in mind.  The house should be placed at a point roughly 15 feet (4.6 m) off of the ground and inaccessible to climbing predators. The house should be placed in a location that receives sunlight for most of the day. In nearly all ways that it can, a bat house will differ from the bird houses with which most people are so familiar. Here is a list of the basic characteristics:  Unlike birdhouses, the opening for entrance and exit will not be at the front. Instead, there should be a long open strip along the bottom. The entrance and the back wall of the bat house should have horizontal grooves carved into them that the bats can climb with their claws. It should not be cube shaped (as is common for many bird houses) but instead be a very wide, fairly tall, flat box. Keep in mind that you are not making this house for a single bat or even a pair of bats. Many bats rarely settle down for the day in groups of less than a dozen. According to those who have customized bat houses based upon studies of behavior, the smallest bat house should have exterior dimensions of roughly 13.5 inches (34 cm) wide, 3.75 inches (9.5 cm) deep, and 20 inches (51 cm) tall (with an additional 4–5 inches (10–13 cm) of the back wall extending below the floor to the entrance, providing something for the bats to latch on to). There should be several narrow open strips along the lower portions of the sides to vent air from the box. Because bats often rest in densely packed groups, the heat they generate and CO2 they release can make a bat house unlivable very quickly. These are the primary tools you will need:   A pole (optional) on which you will mount the house when completed. Lumber, including 3⁄4 in (1.9 cm) plywood and that has been treated to make it water resistant. Screws (several sizes). Screwdriver. Saw. Staple gun.

Mahogany trees do best when planted in areas that receive partial to full sun.  Avoid heavily shaded areas. Also note that these trees are considered tropical varieties and thrive best in warm climates. Harsh winters can easily damage or destroy mahogany trees. Think twice about planting a mahogany tree if your winters reach below temperatures of 40 degrees Fahrenheit (4.4 degrees Celsius). Mahogany trees can grow in a range of soil types, but they do thrive best in well-drained sandy loam soils.  Avoid heavy clay soils and duplex soils. Additionally, mahogany trees do best in neutral soils. They can survive in strongly acidic soils, too, but avoid planting them in alkaline soils. If you need to use naturally alkaline soil, amend it with sphagnum peat, ammonium nitrate fertilizer, sulfur-coated urea, or agricultural sulfur. Most mahogany trees are resistant to salt spray, so soils frequently drenched by salt water mist should not present a problem. Since mahogany trees have deep root systems, you should make sure that the soil you plant it in runs deep, too. Plant the tree at least 15 feet (4.57 m) away from any house or large structure. It should also be 8 feet (2.43 m) or more away from sidewalks, streets, and driveways.  Mahogany trees tend to have large canopies and long roots, which is why appropriate spacing is so crucial. Similarly, it is best to plant multiple mahogany trees at least 15 feet (4.57 m) apart. You should be able to plant grasses, flowers, and small shrubs near the base of the tree without much problem, however.
