Article in English: It is important to take control of your thinking and reduce negative thinking about the situation. This limits the likelihood of you feeling excessively embarrassment; this is due the idea that our thoughts directly influence our feelings.  Think thoughts such as, “I can do this; it isn't that bad!” Look for the humor in the situation. Isn't is funny that in society we buy these items in front of other people? Remember that the cashiers at these stores ring up the same items all of the time. You're probably not the first person to buy this item at their register, and you most likely won't be the last. Think something like, “This person is probably not thinking negatively about me, they deal with this sort of thing all the time!” Unfortunately, embarrassment when buying sexual contraceptives such as condoms can lead to unsafe sex and possible pregnancy. Thus, reducing embarrassment or coping with it is crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle with regard to your sex life.  Think about the consequences of not buying the product; could it lead to pregnancy, an STD, or uncomfortable sex? Some people may steal in order to get personal items to reduce embarrassment. Know that this behavior could get you arrested.

Article in English: It is important to take immediate action to prevent a migraine from becoming worse. Once a migraine has started there a few things you can do to reduce the severity and help deal with the headache.  Find a calm environment and retreat from your daily challenges as much as possible. Dim the lights in the room Lie down or use a reclining chair if possible. Relax in a dark quiet room and try to sleep if you can. Over-the-counter acetaminophen or ibuprofen can help to relieve the pain of a migraine for some people. However, it is important to be aware that these medications can also damage your liver and kidneys when used often over a long period of time.  Ibuprofen and acetaminophen doses are listed on the bottle. Do not use more than the dose on the bottle. Talk to your physician to make sure that there are no interactions with other medications you are already taking or with an underlying medical condition. Overdoses of either of these over-the-counter pain medications can be life threatening, causing significant liver or kidney damage. If you have taken too much, seek emergency medical care immediately. Some migraine headaches respond to heat or cold. Test your migraines with either a cold compress or hot compress over the area of your head that hurts and see which feels better. To make a hot or cold compress, run very hot or very cold water over a washcloth, then ring out the excess water and place the cloth over your head. Leave the compress on for up to 15 minutes.

Article in English: It is important to take steps to prevent an infection, especially if there is any broken skin around the area of the dislocation.  Wait until professional medical personnel arrive before attempting to wash or in any way "clean" the wound (if there is a wound, or if there are any areas of broken skin). Attempting to do so without the proper sterilizing equipment or medical training actually increases the chance of infection rather than decreasing it. For now, covering the area is enough to decrease the chance of it becoming infected. Try to use nonstick gauze such as Telfa if there is an open wound. Note that it is very important not to try and re-position or re-align the joint in any way. This can cause further harm, and it is best to simply immobilize it in the position it is in and to wait for a trained medical professional to definitively treat the dislocation.  Be sure to immobilize both above and below the dislocated joint to ensure maximum stability while awaiting medical treatment.  If it is the shoulder that is dislocated, you can use a sling (or make a sling by tying a long piece of fabric into a circle) to immobilize it. Make sure the sling holds the limb against the body. Instead of just wrapping the sling around the neck, try wrapping it around the torso before tying it at the neck. If it is another joint such as a knee or elbow, a splint is your best bet. Splints can be constructed of sticks or another stabilizing device and tape or fabric strips to hold the splint in place. This is to ensure it does not lose sensation, or exhibit a change in temperature or reduction in pulse. These signs could indicate an obstruction of blood flow or damage to the nerves leading down to the limb. If any of these changes occur, seek medical assistance for treating the dislocation immediately. Check the pulse in the area of the limb farthest from the center of the body — in the wrist if the arm or shoulder is dislocated, on the top of the foot or behind the ankle bone if the injury is to a leg. Doctors usually...

Article in English: It is important to understand that they only way to reduce (or treat) protein in your urine is by diagnosing the underlying cause. This is because protein in the urine is not a diagnosis in itself; rather, it is a symptom indicating that something else is going on. It is only in the diagnosing and treating of that "something else" that the elevated protein level itself can be best addressed and dealt with. There are three types of proteinuria, and the good news is that two out of the three require no treatment and usually resolve all on their own, with time. The third type, however, requires a more comprehensive medical examination to determine the underlying cause. The three types are:   Transient proteinuria. This is when a urine test reveals elevated protein on one reading, but the level diminishes on its own and ultimately returns to normal with subsequent readings. Transient proteinuria is normally related to acute stresses such as an illness causing a fever, or more exercise than usual (such as training for a marathon). Once the stress passes, or your body adapts to it, your protein levels should also return to normal.  Orthostatic proteinuria. This is when the abnormal protein levels are related to postural changes (standing versus sitting versus lying down). It is uncommon, and more likely to be present in adolescents; if present, it does not require treatment, and it almost always resolves itself by adulthood.  Persistent proteinuria. This is when the protein levels in your urine remain elevated with repeat testing. It is indicative of an underlying problem such as kidney disease, diabetes, autoimmune disease, or another medical condition. It will require a series of tests for diagnostic purposes, as well as medical treatment. As previously mentioned, if you are currently ill with a fever, exercising more than usual, or suffering from other acute stressors in your life, the protein levels in your urine may be elevated transiently as a result of this stress. The key here is to see your doctor again a...

Article in English: It is important to understand that you are not alone in your struggle. For some people, a caring friend or family member can provide all the support you need to get you through the feeling that you deserve nothing. Recent studies have found that people whose friends gave them compliments before completing a task performed better than people who did not receive compliments. “Fishing” for compliments is okay! Your friends and family can help remind you that you deserve the best life has to offer. It’s possible that some element of your health is causing you to feel low self-worth. Your doctor can help you make decisions about taking supplements or developing an exercise regimen, or they can refer you to a specialist. You are not the only person who feels as if they deserve nothing.  Seek out a support group online or in your local community.  Try  http://online.supportgroups.com/ http://www.mentalhealthamerica.net/find-support-groups Some of the many signs that you may want to seek professional therapy include  having emotions that are frequently overwhelming, living through a severe trauma, having frequent stomach or headaches, or other unexplained illnesses, and strained relationships. If the feeling that you deserve nothing persists for a long time, you may be clinically depressed. Depression is different from sadness; it involves long term feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness. Some signs that you might be depressed and should seek counseling include  losing interest in things and people you used to enjoy, long term lethargy, a drastic change in appetite and sleep, inability to concentrate, a drastic change in mood (especially increased irritability), an inability to concentrate, long term negative thoughts that won’t stop, increased substance abuse, aches and pains that you can’t explain, self-loathing, or the feeling that you are completely worthless.

Article in English: It is important to understand the motivation behind wanting to get a cat in the first place in order to choose the best possible cat to bring home.  Some common reasons include:  Wanting unconditional love and constant companionship To fill a void created by the loss of another pet or companion Wanting a friend for your child while also teaching them about responsibility Wanting to take care of someone every day Owning a pet is a big responsibility, and the decision to get a cat can mean signing up for these responsibilities for about 15 to 18 years. It is important to be aware that over the next decade plus, this cat will be in your life as a constant companion, but also as a constant obligation.  Be sure you are willing to take care of a cat throughout your life and theirs before going any further in the process. In addition to the initial cost of the cat, which can be very high if you choose to go to a breeder, you also need to consider other ownership expenses.  Keep in mind you will also need to pay for food, visits to the veterinarian, identification tags, microchipping, and other incidentals, which can really add up quickly.  The ASPCA estimates that the first year alone will cost a cat owner about $1,035. You may really want to get a cat, and you may have the means to do so, but there are a few other requirements you should consider before deciding that a cat is the right choice at this point in your life:  Do you have any other pets and will they react well to a new cat? Are you allowed to have cats at your current residence? Will your work and social life allow time to care for, and interact with, a new cat? What would you do with your cat if you went on vacation? Do you, or anyone else that would commonly interact with the cat, have allergies to cats, cat hair, dirt, or dander? Do you have children who may need a cat with a particular type of temperament?

Article in English: It is important to use a gentle touch when you caress a girl. Try to just let your fingertips graze her skin as you caress her skin. Avoid sharp and quick movements. Softer and smoother touches are relaxing and a little sexy. Caress a girl gently and softly, like she is made of the softest silk. Hugging can be an effective way to start caressing a girl and hugging is a common practice in new relationships. You can give the girl a hug and begin caressing her as you do so to prolong the hug and make her feel good.  Try hugging her as you say goodbye for the night and then gently stroke her back with one hand as you hug her. If she seems to like this, then you might reach up to her face with your other hand and gently stroke the side of her cheek. If she keeps the hug quick and friendly, then perhaps she isn't interested. If she tries to make the hug last longer, then perhaps she's interested in having more physical connection with you. You can also place your arm around a girl’s shoulders or waist to start caressing her. You may only want to try this if you're pretty sure she will like it and have already done things like hold hands.   For example, you might gently place your arm around her shoulders or waist while standing next to her in line for a movie or while chatting with her between classes. After you place your arm around her shoulder or waist, you can gently caress her shoulder or hip with that hand. her as you caress her. Your girl might enjoy your caresses even more if you give her some compliments while you are touching her. This can make the caressing seem even more intimate and special.  Try telling her she has the most beautiful eyes or softest hair you have ever seen. Find something you genuinely like about her, and the compliments will flow. You can also just try telling her that she is beautiful, that her skin feels nice, that she smells great, or simply that you like her.

Article in English: It is important to wait so that the debris in your inner ear can settle before you inadvertently shake it up again. This helps to avoid any rebound symptoms of vertigo right after leaving the doctor's office (or right after performing the maneuver on yourself). After about 10 minutes, the debris should be settled and you are safe to proceed with your day as normal. After you get the maneuver performed on you by a doctor, you will be given a soft collar (also known as a soft neck brace) that you will be asked to wear for the rest of the day. The collar will help to control your head movements so that you don’t accidentally move your head in a way that makes your inner ear crystals get out of place again. The night after you have the maneuver done, you should plan on sleeping with your head kept up at a 45 degree angle. You can do this by propping yourself up with pillows or by sleeping in a reclining chair. This means keeping your neck as straight as possible, with your head facing forward. Avoid doing things like going to the dentist or hairdresser, where they tilt your head backwards. You should also avoid exercises where your head moves around a lot. You should not tilt your head back more than 30 degrees.  When you shower, position yourself so that you are directly under the shower head so that you don’t have to tilt your head back. If you are a man who needs to shave, bend your body forward rather than tilting your head to shave. Avoid any other positions that are known to trigger your BPPV for at least one week after the Epley maneuver has been performed. After you have waited for a full week avoiding symptoms that are known to provoke your BPPV, try an experiment and see if you can cause yourself to experience vertigo again (by assuming one of the positions that may previously have triggered it). If the maneuver was successful, you should not be able to trigger the vertigo in yourself at this time. It may return again down the road, but the Epley maneuver is highly successful and serves as a temporary...

Article in English: It is important to wait until your little girl has developed enough physically and emotionally to begin. Typically, this occurs for most children between the ages of 22 and 30 months, and girls are often ready a little earlier than boys. Every child is different, though.  Recognize the signs.  A little girl is physically ready when she can control her bowel and bladder muscles. If bowel movements are around the same time each day and do not happen at night, then that is a good indication. Moreover, if her diaper stays dry for 2 hours or more, then that is another indication. Take a hint.  Children are emotionally ready once they begin talking about wanting to use the toilet. If she talks about wanting to be a "big girl," she might be ready to start potty training. She might also tell you that she has to pee or poop, and this is another sign that she might be ready. Both tools can help you potty train your daughter.  Which one you choose will depend on your individual bathroom situation, but here's what you need to know:  A training potty is a portable toilet-shaped container that a young girl can climb onto without much difficulty. It is generally recommended that you start training with the child-size potty first, since a little girl can climb onto it by herself. She may also feel more secure being lower to the ground, which will make the process much easier. A training seat fits on top of a normal toilet and makes the opening narrower, preventing her from falling in or feeling as though she might slip in. You should also buy a small footstep for her to use as she climbs up. Toddlers learn by imitating adults and older children. As a result, it is important that she sees her mother or other female relatives using the toilet rather than her father or other male relatives.  Be wary of incorrect demonstrations. If she does see an older brother or father use the toilet standing up, she may try to do likewise. In instances like this, you should explain the difference between boys and girls and let her know that...

Article in English: It is important to warm up your muscles and stretch to ensure that you do not injure yourself. You must especially stretch and warm up your legs and back as they will be primarily involved in performing the straddle splits. Lay on your back with your legs in the air and your butt against a wall. Keep your back straight and flat as your press against the wall for support. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes for mobility and traction. Lay on a mat or pillow if the ground is uncomfortable for your back. You will need shoes with good traction in order to walk your legs out across the wall. Slowly drop your legs to each side of you along the wall in a “V” shape”. Spread your legs apart until they are tight but not far enough that you feel pain. Hold the V pose for 10-15 seconds. Once you have practiced the V position against a wall, stand comfortable with your feet shoulder width apart and bent over at the hip. This is best done on tile or hardwood but make sure that the floor isn’t too slippery. Practicing barefoot may help you slide along the floor whereas socks may be too slippery and cause injury. Using a slow and controlled movement, slide your feet outwards and lower your butt towards the ground. Take your time and use your arms to steady yourself. If you find your feet slipping, try wearing shoes or practicing on a rubber mat.  If you feel you can’t get as far as you like, use a chair in front of you or practice in front of a wall to stabilize your body. Point your toes out and upward towards the sky. You should not let the tops of your feet turn in if you can help it. Once you’ve reached the furthest angle of your splits, hold the pose and breathe as you hold 10-15 seconds. Work your way back up to the starting stance slowly to make sure you don’t injure yourself.  Roll your hip downwards to inch further down. This keeps your stomach towards the ground as your legs continue to spread. For a greater stretch, roll your hip backwards to turn out your legs. This is difficult but gives your hips a deeper...

Article in English: It is impossible for a tampon to get "lost" in your body if the string breaks or you can't find it. Wet your hands, then apply soap. Scrub your hands with the soap, then rinse your hands clean. Dry your hands with a clean towel.  Your hands can harbor germs that may transfer into your vagina. Make sure your nails aren't jagged or sharp, as you might scratch yourself. For example, you can sit over the toilet, squat, or stand with one leg up on the toilet seat. Choose the position that's most comfortable for you. Take a deep breath and try to relax. Make circular and back and forth movements until you feel the tampon. It may be turned to the side or pushed up to the top of the vaginal canal, near the cervix and behind your bladder. If you cannot feel the tampon or have trouble removing it, trying sitting on the toilet and pushing as though you are trying to push out a baby or go poop.

Article in English: It is impossible to build consistent, high-volume traffic on your webpage without getting people to come back day after day. While you should always be on the hunt for new markets and viewers to tap into, you need to provide longtime readers a reason to keep coming back or your site will fall apart. Keep people updated on new information, and keep them engaged constantly. Soon they'll be sharing your site with others and you'll get more views, likes, shares, etc. You want your site to be a dependable source of information—the first place people turn when they open up their computers—no matter what your subject or topic. Everyone loves a contest, poll, or giveaway. Get people involved by asking for their opinions in the comments section or raffling off a website-themed prize. If you can get your community to interact with you, it will draw viewers to the page. Let your fans and followers know that you see them. When they leave a reply for you to see, they probably also expect an answer back. So by replying, they'll see that you do care about their comments and that you do see them. They'll admire you for being so kind to them and be a loyal member/fan/follower. That said, you cannot reply to everyone — be prudent and respond to viewers who seem interested in conversations. These will draw other people in and give your page more content.

Article in English: It is inevitable that your lip color will fade slightly over the course of the day. However, the change will be most noticeable when your lips come in direct contact with cups or utensils.  Bring your lipstick and apply another thin layer to top up the color after meals. Carry a compact mirror to check for smudging or movement.  Remember to check the lipstick hasn't transferred to your teeth. You may find your lips require hydration as the day goes on, especially with drier formulas such as mattes.  However, the oil in lip balm actually breaks up the color, causing it to wear off and fade.  If you find your lips get dry through the day, opt for a more moisturizing lipstick formula and make sure you don’t skip the crucial step of hydrating before application. Avoid licking your lips.  Not only will this make your lip color fade, it actually makes your lips drier over time. If you do apply lip balm, allow it to absorb for a minute or two, blot any excess off with a tissue and then follow up with another layer of lipstick.  This gives your lips some much-needed moisture without the lip color fading.  Apply lip balm sparingly. Excessive use of lip balm can hinder your lips' natural ability to produce their own moisture. Once you have a solid grasp of the application technique you can begin to try different combinations to figure out which lipsticks offer the best longevity.

Article in English: It is likely a person with an addiction to pornography has kept it hidden from others. The process of talking allows someone to free himself from the lie of keeping secrets. Talking is extremely therapeutic and is used in many types of psychotherapy.  If the person tells you he has an addiction, then allow him to tell you his story. It is important for him to know that he is being heard. If you notice changes in the person’s behavior, then you can bring it up by saying something like, “I’ve noticed you are spending a lot more time online, and you look like something is bothering you. Do you want to talk about it?” Don’t be afraid to ask the tough, honest questions. Confronting difficult subject matter that might jeopardize a relationship is challenging. Deceit is at the root of addiction so you must tell the truth. You will need to ask direct, honest questions like, “Do you think you are addicted to pornography?” People tend to rise to a challenge when they know someone is interested in the outcome. There is a tendency to believe in yourself and your abilities when you can tell someone about your accomplishments. Accountability increases results and effectiveness. You can be the person who asks to be updated, shows an interest in the person’s success, and will call a person out if he is not living up to expectations. It will help the person attach to a process that will help end unhealthy behaviors.  You can help the person be accountable by saying something like, “I want to help you with this so I’m going to check in with you and ask you how things are going.” Offer to monitor the person’s computer activity by checking search histories on a daily or weekly basis. You must secure the person’s commitment to not delete his own search histories. An addiction to pornography carries its own sense of shame in most cultures. If a person is trying to change his behavior, additional shame and guilt is not helpful to the process. Help the person find other things that motivate positive change, rather than ridiculing...

Article in English: It is much easier to have a collaborative approach to the divorce. It's also less expensive if you and your husband are able to settle your issues without legal involvement.   If it is not possible to keep a lawyer out of it, make sure you hire an attorney that is willing to litigate your case before a judge. The attorney should know the value of settling the divorce quickly, but he should also be willing to fight for you in court should the need arise. Interview at least three attorneys before you decide on one. Look for a divorce attorney who has at least 5-10 years experience practicing family and divorce law. You need a clear picture of where you and your spouse stand financially. One of the main goals of a divorce is to have an equitable distribution of marital assets and debts. To get your fair share, you need to know what is owned by you and your husband and what is owed by you and your husband. To do this:   Make a list of all possible assets that you own or partly own. Some shared marital assets are obvious. The marital home and any financial accounts and vehicles are assets that should be split equitably. Other assets might include artwork, pension plans, inheritances, or belongings brought into the marriage. Gather all documentation for each asset, including present value, when and where the asset was purchased, and whether it was purchased with joint or separate funds. Turn over all documentation to your attorney and keep a copy for yourself. Determine the debt in your marriage. When determining what you owe, it doesn't matter whose name any debts are in. Marital debt will be split based on who is more financially able to pay the debt, not by whose name the debt is in. The easiest way to determine marital debt is to get a copy of your credit report. Turn this information over to your attorney as well. Determine your income. If you and your husband are salaried employees, give your attorney a copy of your most recent pay stubs and your most recent Income Tax Return. It's important that you figure...

Article in English: It is much easier to straighten your hair with a curling iron that has a larger barrel, at least 1 to 2 inches in diameter. A larger barrel will allow you to run the curling iron through sections of your hair more easily and much more quickly than a curling iron with a smaller barrel. If you only have access to a curling iron with a smaller barrel, .75 to 1 inch in diameter, you can still use it to straighten your hair. But it may take more time due to the smaller barrel size. Look for a curling iron that is made of ceramic and/or tourmaline. Ceramic irons are ideal because they help to disperse heat through your hair more evenly. Tourmaline irons are also good for controlling frizz and for locking moisture in your hair when you style it with heat. Many professional grade curling irons are made with ceramic or tourmaline. You may be able to get a more affordable curling iron that is only partly ceramic or tourmaline if you are on a budget. You should also check that the curling iron comes with several heat settings so you can control how much heat you are applying to your hair. This will ensure you do not burn or damage your hair when you use the curling iron.  If you have fine hair or hair that is color treated, you should use a low heat setting of below 200 degrees. If you have curly, thick hair, you can use a higher heat setting of 200-300 degrees. Never go above 400 degrees as this can damage your hair, no matter what hair type you have. Make sure you pay attention to how your hair responds to the heat of the curling iron. If you notice a burning smell coming from your hair, the temperature may be too high. However, a burning smell can also indicate that your hair is dirty, wet, or even has too much product on it.

Article in English: It is natural to feel defensive when you are being criticized, but allowing yourself to get upset and show your emotions will not help the situation. Keep in mind that we all make mistakes when we are learning a new skill, so criticism is inevitable and if you deal with it in a constructive way you may learn something valuable as a result. So try to stay calm even if the person who is criticizing you seems agitated. Do not match their emotions because it may make you seem incapable of handling criticism and it will interfere with your ability to learn something from the criticism.  Take deep breaths. When you are being criticized, focusing on your breathing can help to keep you calm. Try counting to five (in your head) as you breathe in, then hold your breath to the count of five, and then exhale slowly. Try to smile. Even a small smile can help you to feel better and it may cause the person who is criticizing you to relax a bit too. Before responding and even before thinking about the criticism that you received, give yourself time to cool down. Do something you enjoy for about 20 minutes such as listening to your favorite type of music, reading a book, or taking a walk. Giving yourself some time to cool down after receiving harsh criticism will help you to deal with it in a constructive way, rather than just reacting based on your emotional response. When accepting criticism in a way that’s healthy for you, you need to remember to compartmentalize. Try not to think about criticism as being personal or speaking against other things that you do. Take it as it is and do not add things to it or make assumptions about other aspects of yourself based on what was said. For example, if someone gives you criticism about a painting you did, it does not mean that you're a bad artist. You can have a few flaws in a piece or a painting that no one likes, and you can still be a great artist. Sometimes criticism is not meant to help, it is meant to hurt. Before you decide what to do about the criticism you received, take...

Article in English: It is natural to feel sad and out-of-sorts for a while when love fails. Don't expect yourself to be over your ex in a day or two. Be patient with yourself, and work through everything you are feeling about the breakup. The only way you will eventually be happy is if you give yourself time to completely move on.  Don’t immediately rush into another relationship or try find someone new to love. Make time to get over this first. Allow yourself time to process everything that you are feeling. It's okay to think about the love and why it failed. People may tell you to just get over it. Don’t let anyone else try to rush you into getting over your failed love. However, if it has been several months since your love failed, you may want to put more effort into moving on. At first you may not want to believe that this love has failed. Don’t get stuck pretending that nothing has changed and that your love is the same as it was. In order to move on and be happy you have to stop denying (to yourself and to others) that this love failed.  Don’t contact your ex and act as if things are still the same.  This will probably make your ex annoyed or angry and it will make it harder for you to move on and be happy. Put away reminders of your ex. For example, if the background on your phone is a picture of the two of you, then change it. Don’t lie to people if they ask you about the relationship. You don’t have to go into detail, but you should be honest with them. You might try saying, “We didn’t work out, but I’d rather not talk about it any further than that.” Then change the subject. Even though you may admit that your love has failed, you might think that if you change certain things about yourself or can convince your ex the love can work, you’ll get back together. This usually doesn’t work. Instead, accept that it’s over so that you can move on with the rest of your life and be happy.   Stop trying to think of ways to make your love work. Don’t try to make your ex jealous or do something dramatic to make them realize how...

Article in English: It is normal and healthy to experience bad moods every now and again. But if your bad mood lasts for more than two weeks or if it is seriously infringing on your ability to function, you should talk to your doctor about it. There is a possibility that you have a physical disorder, such as an abnormal thyroid, which will require medical treatment. Some people experience clinical depression, which is more serious than a typical bad mood. Depression can cause physical as well as mental distress and hurt someone's ability to work, sleep, or function normally. If you cannot shake your feelings of distress, or if you are considering hurting yourself or someone else, you should seek mental health care as soon as possible. Remember that depression is an illness that requires treatment, just like a physical disorder. It is perfectly normal to need the help of antidepressant medication or talk therapy to recover. Some women experience difficult, serious bad moods during the days leading up to their periods. This is known as Premenstrual Syndrome or PMS. If you feel like your PMS is hurting your ability to function in a healthy and happy way, talk with your doctor about whether you might benefit from hormonal birth control. Many women report an improvement in PMS symptoms and in their moods while on hormonal birth control. Note that hormonal birth control can have side effects that are potentially serious. Talk carefully with your doctor about your options. If your bad moods take place during the dark winter months, coupled with increased irritability and anxiety and lower energy, it is possible that you are experiencing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). SAD is caused by the lack of sunlight and can be effectively treated with light therapy, talk therapy, and antidepressants. Be sure to talk about these options with your doctor.

Article in English: It is normal to feel emotional after a breakup. Don’t try to suppress your sadness. You will be able to approach getting back together with a clear mind once you release your emotions.  Feeling sad as a result of your breakup is normal. You should seek help if the sadness reflects in all aspects of your life and does not improve over time.  Seek help if your sleeping, eating, and concentration is affected for more than two weeks. Definitely seek help if you are having thoughts of self-harm or suicide. Don’t get too weighed down by self-pity. Allow yourself time to feel sad, but don’t forget the positive aspects of yourself. .

Article in English: It is not always easy, but if you want to build a healthy relationship with your child you need to be accepting of them and deal with any conflicts in a calm, balanced way. Try to listen to your teen and be open to their worries and concerns - the last thing you want is for them to shut you out completely.  For instance, if you find out that your teen has been skipping school, shouting at them and punishing them will do nothing but decrease the quality of your relationship, as the natural human reaction to being yelled at is to yell back or simply pull away. So, instead of reacting in such a negative way, you could ask your teen to go for a walk and then, when it is just the two of you in a calm and serene setting, you can talk things over. Avoid asking questions that can be answered with a simple "yes" or "no" and try to ask questions that require a deeper level of communication. On the other hand, when your teens do something positive, do your best to encourage them and let them know how proud you are. For instance, if your teen decides to do volunteer work or gets a good grade at school, remember to praise them for it.  You may think that your child knows how you feel, but they still need to actually hear it from you – this significantly reduces anxiety levels by helping your teen understand that you really love and care for them. Remember that teenagers need praise and appreciation – even though at this age they are striving to achieve independence, you are still a huge part of their lives and if you don’t accept them for who they are, neither will they. Even though teens will seldom admit it, parents are still role-models and people whom they look up to, so it is up to you to fulfill that role. Isolation can make mood disorders in teenagers worse, as feelings of loneliness are amplified. Therefore, you should encourage your teen to hang out with friends, meet new people and engage in social activities and groups.  Offer to bring your teen and their friends somewhere fun, like the cinema, the bowling...

Article in English: It is not desirable to remove all plants from the area, but small underbrush will compete with the ginseng. Ferns in particular create a chemical that can kill nearby plants, so remove them or avoid areas adjacent to those plants. If you want your ginseng to grow in the most wild conditions possible, or if you have a large quantity of seed, you may wish to simply scatter the seed on the selected planting site. Remove the leaf litter from the ground first. Aim to scatter about 6 to 12 seeds per square foot (65 to 120 seeds per square meter). Even most wild-simulated ginseng is planted with a little preparation and a couple standard gardening implements. First, rake leaves off the forest floor to expose the topsoil. Use a hoe to create furrows running up and down the slope. Plant according to needs:  Plant the seeds 6 to 9 inches (15 to 23 cm) apart if you plan to harvest large, 7+ year old ginseng. This is a typical planting method for wild-simulated ginseng, as the wide spacing reduces the risk of disease spreading. Plant as little as 1 inch apart if you have a large number of seeds and want to harvest sooner. This method is more commonly used for field-cultivated ginseng, since the densely planted ginseng must be carefully watched and treated for disease and pest control. It is not recommended for first time growers. Replace the leaf litter that you raked off, or add a layer of mulch. This keeps the ground moist, which is vital for ginseng. Use 1 to 2 inches (2.5 to 5cm) of ground cover but no more, since the ginseng sprouts will not be able to push through a thicker layer. You should use 4 inches (10cm) of mulch if you live in an area with cold winters and frequent frosts, but remember to reduce this to lower levels in the spring. Do not use whole oak leaves. These are too tough and large for sprouts to grow through. Shred them first if you have already bought oak leaf mulch. You’re not going to need to visit the site much, and the look of the forest can change a great deal over the 7+ years it takes for...

Article in English: It is not far from the truth to say that healthy guinea pigs eat constantly, so any changes in eating patterns or frequency should always be cause for concern.  Sometimes, not eating or eating less than usual may be the only observable sign of a serious condition.  Guinea pigs cannot go more than a few hours without eating before causing potential damage.  If your pet has not eaten at all (or very little) in the past 16-20 hours, seek immediate veterinary attention. Make sure your guinea pig is also drinking water as normal. However, remember that many guinea pigs don't drink much and others drink a lot, so look for changes in how much they're drinking. If your guinea pig is normally active and friendly but has begun acting agitated, anxious, or afraid, assume that there is a medical problem involved.  You know your pet's personality and normal activities better than anyone, so use your judgment in determining things out of the ordinary, then involve the vet as warranted. While the list could be endless, and will be particular to your guinea pig, common signs of trouble can include:  avoiding favorite foods; hiding all the time; lethargy; a change in posture or walking style; or any other change from established behavior patterns. With some pets, a wait-and-see approach is sensible when it comes to deciding whether to seek medical assistance.  Because guinea pigs can go from seemingly healthy to critically ill in a matter of hours, however, it is essential to quickly identify and act upon any possible signs of sickness or injury.  The potential embarrassment of taking a healthy guinea pig to the vet's office is nothing compared to the pain you will feel if you wait too long to seek treatment for an illness that could have easily been addressed. Guinea pigs, for instance, are more susceptible to having adverse reactions to certain antibiotics than many other pets.  This means that you need to seek out an exotic pets veterinarian with ample experience with guinea pigs and that you need to keep a close eye on...

Article in English: It is not necessary to find a boy that exactly matches your requirements, but he should have some quality that you really like from the start. What does he value? What does he like? What does he do in his free time? If you know such a guy, great! If you do not know any such guy, you'll have to go looking. Once you determine the kind of guy you're looking for, think about where he'd be. Would he be the type you would meet at a party? That you would run into at sports practice after school? At a music event? Some people might tell you that you should join a club your kind of boy might be in, but that won't last. You need to join a club you enjoy so A) you're happy in it and B) so that you can meet boys that have something in common with you. What'll it be? A drama club? An environmental club? A sport? How about volunteering at the homeless animal shelter? Even if you don't end up meeting that perfect boy, you'll meet some great friends, stay busy, and likely develop a skill. Needless to say, the only place you aren't going to meet boys is if you sit at home all day and watch TV with your cats. Put yourself out there and you'll have to meet one eventually. There's 3.5 billion of them out there after all. This could be your favorite book store if you are an avid reader or a coffee shop if you like coffee. It could even be some place you normally go with your friends. Popular places work too, like skating rinks or ice cream shops – places where people your own age tend to frequent. You can go in a group or alone, but it's important to spend some time on your own in these places so that the boys that do not feel comfortable in crowds (most boys in this context, really) will be more comfortable approaching you or being approached by you. If you work on expanding your horizons, putting yourself out there, going to social events, meetings, gatherings, joining a gym or art class, and pursue your dreams, you will meet that boy. It'll happen. Trust. What's more, you'll likely be happy and be the best version of yourself...

Article in English: It is not safe, nor advisable to let a dog roam around a car unrestrained. Consider putting your dog in a pet cage if you are driving a long distance or if your dog is a nervous passenger. It is the most effective way of keeping a dog still and under control whilst driving. Having a dog caged will help you to focus on driving instead of on the dog, which is important because distracted drivers can easily have accidents. It will also keep your dog safe if you have to stop quickly or if you get in an accident.  If you don't want to cage your dog, at least find a way to make sure your dog is secure. For instance if you have an estate car, consider confining your dog to the rear of the car. If you do have a large window boot, put up a wire grid to stop your dog jumping over the back of the seats. Line the dog's area with dog blankets or place it's bed in the corner so it can nap comfortably on the journey. Make sure you don't have any heavy loose items, such as bowls or bottles, as those can become dangerous projectiles in an accident. Most dogs find sleeping an easy way to cope with motion sickness. You could also purchase a dog safety seat. While it is not as secure as a cage, it will be safer and more comfortable than a car seat for your dog if you turn or stop the car suddenly. The most popular among these are bucket seats. They attach at the back of the front seats, and the top of the back seats, creating a soft well in which your dog, and any liquids (or solids!) they may create, are contained. These can be made with a blanket or purchased cheaply. Car seatbelts for dogs are a great tool if you don't want your dogs confined, or if you only have a two-seater car. Make sure to attach them to a harness, and not a collar. They clip into the female buckle of a car seatbelt on one end, and have a standard lead clip on the other. By attaching them to a harness, you ensure the dog is secured by the body, and their neck won't be damaged in an emergency. If you use a cage, make sure it is secured. Make sure it is...

Article in English: It is not that one is better than the other in general, but there are some that are better for certain people.  More popular styles benefit from more people to learn from, more funding and the occasional visit from a master from Japan.  Here are the most popular styles:  Goju Ryu.  Its founder, Gogen Yamaguchi, was famously taken prisoner by the Russians in World War 2.  The Russians attempted to feed him to a hungry tiger, but he killed the tiger with his bare hands.  Goju has many more circular and close in/grappling techniques. Shotokhan.  Shotokan is the most traditional Japanese style.  It takes its name from a pen name that Master Funakoshi used in his poetry.  The name means the "house where you hear the wind blowing through the pine trees.  It is very direct, with strong movements in a linear fashion towards the target. Shito ryu.  Shito is an attempt to unify the linear Shotokan and the circular Goju into one combined discipline. Wado ryu.  Wado contains various Judo like throws. Kyokushin Kai.  Kyokushin has a reputation for being very intense and is good if you aspire to full contact fighting.  It's founder, Mas Oyama, was known for fighting bulls in demonstrations, and repeatedly cut off bull's horns with an open hand (knife) strike. As in anything, the actual teacher may be more important that the school.  Make sure the School follows your philosophy.  Some schools are full of 18 year olds with lots of contact, excitement, and broken bones.  Some are spiritual and have no contact.  This is probably the most important thing to consider in choosing. Ensure lessons are are at a convenient time and place for you. Watch a lesson before you actually join, to see if you like the style. Decide if you want to practice with children or not.  It is very hard to make a living teaching karate, and many schools make their cash by teaching a lot of children.  That may be fine with you, or may not be.

Article in English: It is not well appreciated by most, but fevers are one of the body’s main defenses against infections.  Let a fever run as long as possible without too much discomfort.   Fever is most often a symptom of an infection but can also be caused by inflammatory conditions, thyroid disease, cancer, vaccines and some drugs.  Temperature is regulated by a small gland located in the center of the brain, the hypothalamus.  The thyroid gland also plays a role in body temperature.  Body temperature can vary throughout the day, but a normal temperature is considered 98.6 degrees F or 37 degrees C. During an infection, the infecting agent (bacteria, virus) produce temperature-increasing substances called pyrogens.  Some pyrogens are also induced by the immune system.  These pyrogens tell the hypothalamus to increase body temperature. This in turn, stimulates the immune system to be more effective at fighting off an infection. Higher body temperature is believed to kill off infectious agents as well.,   For adults, most fevers are not dangerous and you can let the fever “run its course”.  If the fever is sustained at over 103 degrees F (39.4 degrees C) or higher for more than 12 to 24 hours, consider calling a physician. While you can allow a fever to run its course, there are limits to how high you should let a fever go:  For infants younger than four months old with a rectal temperature of 100.4 degrees F (38 degrees C) or higher, immediately call your physician for advice. For children of any age, if their rectal temperature is 104 degrees F (40 degrees C) or higher, immediately call your physician for advice. Any child six months or older with a fever of 103 degrees F (39.4 degrees C) by measuring on the forehead, ear or armpit, should also be seen. It is recommended that if your child has any fever along with any of the following symptoms, call your doctor (or emergency services) as soon as possible:  Looks sick or has no appetite Is very fussy Is drowsy Has obvious signs of infection (pus, discharge, streaky rashes)...

Article in English: It is not your job, as an actor, to rewrite the script so that you are "more likeable," nor is it your job to judge the writing or character and play a version of yourself instead. It is your job to portray a character that could believably inhabit the world of the movie, play, or TV show. Just like the writer, director, camera person, etc, you need to work as part of a larger, consistent group to make a great show.  Don't be embarrassed by something your character is doing, because it is ultimately just acting. If you hold back on a gross, violent, sexual, or emotionally difficult scene you only end up alienating the audience and coming across as "unrealistic." All the best actors commit fully to their roles. Ever wonder why Tom Cruise is still an action star? It's because he never winks, jokes, or sleepwalks his way through the script. He always has high-energy and full commitment, even in bizarre or comical situations. Committing to a role means doing whatever it takes to portray your character realistically, not doing what makes you, the actor, look the best. While not everyone agrees that acting is reacting, it is still an important thing to consider when you're learning about acting. This means that you have to work on your responsiveness to any given acting situation. Really focus in on the other actor's lines, listening to them intently like you would any other person's conversation in "real life." You want to respond honestly, in the voice of your character, even if you are not the main attraction of the scene.  Keep yourself in the moment. Don't try to start thinking ahead to the next scene, or agonizing about whether you said your lines appropriately in the previous scene. For a humorous example, watch Charlie Day in the show It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Even when he is not speaking, his eyebrows, eyes, and fingers are darting around. He  fully commits to his character's wild, unpredictable energy. It's important to remember that something as small as posture can make a big difference. Not...

Article in English: It is not, as the name might imply, an infestation by worms or bug larvae. Two species of fungus are responsible for ringworm infection, microsporum and trichophyton species. This bit of knowledge will help you understand both how the disease can spread and how to identify it. As the name implies, ringworm often leaves circular marks or patches on the surface of the skin. In the early stages of infection, there is little to see other than a patch of hair loss. This is because the fungus grows down the hair shaft, the body then rejects that hair as damaged and it falls out. The skin irritation can result in itching, but even without evident rubbing the condition can contribute to hair loss in the affected region. One of the primary factors that contributes to infection is immune health of the animal. Ringworm in dogs is most common in puppies and older animals, though it can also affect animals with suppressed immune systems. Dogs under stress or taking certain medications can thus be especially vulnerable. This is because the immune system keeps the flora and fauna that are normal inhabitants of the skin in check. However, if the immune system is not fighting fit, the fungus can grow unchecked and a full on infection develops.  While the fungi that cause ringworm are common, contact with an especially heavy concentration of spores can increase the likelihood of infection. Heavy concentrations are really only found on other infected animals. If your dog is healthy but gets ringworm, it is probably because it was around another animal that had the disease. Ringworm is highly infectious and the infected hairs that are shed are a major source of infection for people or other pets. In order to prevent the spread of the disease, sequester infected pets and clean up all fur from the infected pet before allowing other animals in the area.

Article in English: It is of the utmost importance that you take time to care for yourself, since taking care of someone with DID can be very stressful. You should take steps to maintain a healthy diet; it is also important to allow yourself some rest and relaxation time.  Sometimes, you will need to put your needs first in order to keep up the mental and physical strength required to support your loved one. Schedule alone time where you do not need to worry about anyone else’s time management. Stay connected with your friends and make sure that you go out and have fun every week. Taking a break can help you to regain your strength so that you can continue to be patient and empathetic to your loved one’s situation. Join a yoga class to help you center yourself and restore inner peace. Yoga and meditation can be two great ways to help yourself relax and let go of any tensions and worries that you have. There are family therapy sessions specifically for the family members of people with DID. It is very important that you attend sessions so that you can learn about other ways to help your loved one to overcome this disorder and ways to help keep yourself strong. There are also support groups you can join where you can meet other people who are also living with someone who has DID. You can talk to your therapist about support group options or run an internet search to find one near you. While some days may seem bleak, you must always keep the hope alive. With your support and the help of a therapist, your loved one can overcome this disorder and eventually integrate all of their personalities. To maintain hopefulness you can: Remind yourself that you will become a stronger person in dealing with the situation you are in. Think about something that you are grateful for to remember that although some aspects of your life are tough, there are good things to look forward to, also.

Article in English: It is often difficult to determine the species of a baby bird. Baby birds typically do not resemble their adult counterparts, particularly in terms of feather color and length. In addition, a baby bird's feather color and lengths can change in a matter of days, making identification even more difficult.  Despite the challenges, do your best to identify the species. When you contact a wildlife rehabilitation center, you can provide them with this information so the staff will have a good idea of what type of baby bird you will be bringing them. If you need to care for the baby bird before transferring care over to a wildlife rehabilitation center, you can provide the bird with general support regardless of its species. For example, you can keep it warm by placing it in a tissue-filled shoebox (make sure to cut holes in the lid) and setting a heating pad set on 'low' underneath the box. You could also feed it. Often, a baby's bird bill will be large and out of proportion to the size of its head. This is because the baby bird's head has not yet fully formed. Essentially, the head will have to catch up to the size of the bill. A baby bird's feathers are typically stubby, fluffy, and not very well organized. Sometimes, the feather coloring will resemble that of an adult of the same species, especially for the wing and tail feathers. Most times, though, the coloring will be very drab to conceal the baby bird from predators. With so many species of birds, there are many variations on physical characteristics. Some other physical features to look for include eye size, the presence of a hooked beak, and spiked feathers on the head. Be mindful that telltale physical features of a particular species may not be easily noticeable on a baby bird. The orientation of the toes (how many face forward and how many face backward) can also help you identify the species. Take a few pictures of the baby bird and spend some time researching online databases to see if you can identify the species. There are many helpful online...

You should try to be as quiet and gentle as possible. Avoid making too much noise or sudden movements.   Point the light towards the ground. If you are in the coop and shine the light directly at the birds on the roosting rod, you risk waking or startling them. Approach the chicken slowly. You can do this slowly and gently without disturbing the whole coop.  Cup your hands and grab the chicken over the wings. This will prevent the chicken from flapping its wings and disturbing the other birds. Hold it close to your body tightly, like you would a pet.

Article in English: It is often hard to see past the pleasure and excitement of an affair. People who cheat are often plagued with guilt. This guilt can have a severe impact on your life and how you treat your family members. Often, the guilt can even lead to other issues like depression, anxiety, and paranoia that your wife is cheating. Your new partner might also deal with guilt. An extramarital affair is usually a very surface level love. Eventually, you or your lover will want more out of the relationship. This will either take your affair to an even greater level of complexity or it will end the affair. There is also a chance that the guilt will drive the other person to confess the affair to your wife or someone else. Consider what you would do if your new partner said they wanted more and were telling your wife whether you wanted them to or not. Keep in mind that, depending upon the circumstances of your affair, there may be a risk of getting your lover pregnant. Consider this risk carefully. If you already have a family, this could mean that you would be juggling two families.  If you are not interested in having a child with your lover (and pregnancy is a possibility), use proper protection. Realize that you could contract an STD and pass that along to your wife. Many people cheat on their wives as an escape from rough patches in the marriage. This might feel good at the time, but it will not fix the problems in the long run. When the affair ends, you will still be faced with the same marital problems as before, except now they will be compounded with the problems created by the affair.

Summary in Russian:

Представьте, как вы будете себя чувствовать после интрижки. Помните — как минимум еще один человек вовлечен в ситуацию. Подумайте о рисках, связанных с изменой. Поймите, что интрижка не решит проблемы в браке.


Article in English: It is often more difficult to reject someone after a date than it is to reject someone you've never gone out with. Sometimes, however, it takes a date to figure out that you really aren't interested.  Say something like, “I'm sorry. I just didn't really feel a connection on our date. Hope you find someone great!” If you aren't attracted to him but want to be friends say, “I had a lot of fun with you, but I didn't really feel a romantic connection. Would you like to be friends with me?” Asking him if he wants to be friends is straightforward and lets him know that even though you don't want to date, you still appreciate interactions with him. Once you know that you're not into a guy, you should let him know. The longer you wait to tell him you don't want to go out again, the more difficult it will become.  If you've only been out on a date or two, it's fine to tell him you're not interested in a text message. That way, you can craft a tactful message, and he doesn't have to feel embarrassed in person. However, if you know you're not interested at the end of your first date, go ahead and let him know. Before you part ways, say something like, “Hey. Just so you know I don't think there's really anything here for me, but I'm glad we got the chance to go out.” This will save you from agonizing over when to tell him. Once you've told him that you're no longer interested, don't keep talking to him. Even if you both want to be friends, it can be good to have a little distance at first.  If he continually texts you after you've rejected him, it's okay to ignore the messages. If you do talk to him, be careful to avoid flirting or confusing him.

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: It is often used in negative statements in which you use a negative term like “have not” or “has not.”  For example, you may say, “I haven’t completed my homework yet,” or, “I haven’t eaten breakfast yet.” You can also say, “She hasn’t watched the episode yet,” or, “He hasn’t phoned me back yet.” This approach is often used in more formal discussions or conversations. “Yet” is often placed after “have,” “are,” or “has.”  For example you may say, “We have yet to determine if she is on board,” or, “Our guests are yet to arrive.” You may also say, “The price has yet to be announced.” “Yet” is used in a sentence if you want to let others know that you are still in a situation and it is going to continue in the near future. You can use “yet” in positive statements in the present to let others know that a situation or event in the present is not finished yet.  For example, you may say, “I have a lot more work yet,” to let others know your work is not finished. You may say, “There is a lot more time yet,” to tell others that there is still time in the present to complete a task or activity.

Article in English: It is okay if the Autocad drawing is not to scale, as long as you know at least one length. Type in "UN" followed by the space bar to change the units. Make sure the units are architectural and the precision is 1/6". This can be a wall length or the length of a building. Larger lengths make more accurate scaling in Autocad. You do not want to scale the whole drawing by the width of a door or the length of a piece of furniture, for example. Click on the line, type "properties" followed by the space bar in the command prompt. Scroll down the pop up window until you see the length of the line. Write this number down. You can also draw a new line in the drawing to scale from, if the line doesn't exist in the drawing, like the length of a building, for example. (length full scale) / (length measured in drawing). You should get a decimal number. Write this number down. Then select the entire AutoCad drawing and press the space bar. Then click any part of the drawing. You will see as you move your mouse, AutoCad is attempting to manually scale the drawing. Do not click a second time. Instead type in the command prompt the decimal number you got from Step 5. Then press the space bar. The drawing should be scaled accurately. If it is close, but slightly off, you may have not included enough decimal places in your scale calculation. Simply repeat steps 3-6 for the new scaled drawing to get the scale even more precise. After a second run of the scale, the AutoCad drawing should be accurately scaled.

Article in English: It is okay to use the water in which you soaked the meat. Inspect the meat to make certain there is no visible blood. Keep the meat damp enough so salt sticks to it but not so wet the salt dissolves easily. Do not put so much salt on the meat that blood cannot drain out. Allow the blood to drain into a tub or basin. Do not allow the meat to be salted for more than 12 hours as this may make the meat unkosher. If you leave salt on the meat for more than 12 hours, consult a rabbi as to whether the meat is still kosher.

Article in English: It is perfectly OK to have a "gut feeling" that the marriage would not be successful and simply go on that. However, it is even better to be clear to yourself what your concerns are. If you're simply nervous about making such a big commitment (which is not uncommon) try reading the advice in How to overcome the fear of marriage. If you're concerned that you and your mate are not compatible in some way, it's important to address your worries as soon as possible, long before your partner gets down on their knee. Think about these aspects of the relationship in advance so you're prepared to have a serious conversation:  Does the relationship feel serious and permanent to you, or more lighthearted or temporary? If the other person takes it much more seriously than you do, it could be difficult to find a path together. Is this a time in life where marriage would derail the path that you've set in mind for yourself? Could you see yourself marrying your partner at a later date? Do you have strong opinions about marriage in general? Would you rather live together unmarried, or live separately even in a committed, loving relationship? Do you have concerns about your partner's approach to having children, running a household, financial habits, career goals, or other "big picture" items that would make marriage or cohabitation difficult? Do you have other concerns about your partner or your relationship that are relevant whether or not your get married? These should be discussed as soon as possible, even if marriage is off the table. In an ideal world, the topic of marriage would come up without mind games. However, since this is an emotional issue many people will test the waters before they propose. This may come in jokes, veiled comments, or other subtle "hints". If your significant other raises the issue of marriage, even casually, make your position clear but polite. Or call him or her out to clarify.   For example, if your partner comments while house-hunting: "This house would be perfect for a married couple,"...

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: It is perfectly reasonable to leave your loose pages as is, so long as they're numbered and collected in one place. Making a bona fide book requires at least some regard to the physical package however. While the possibilities for bookbinding are endless, most picture books favour a hardcover. This can be done at home by taking a thin piece of cardboard and folding it into two halves, with a small creased strip in the middle to make the spine. Cut out the cardboard to match your picture book's size and glue your front and back page to the respective sides of the cardboard. If you're making the book with the specific intent of getting it physically distributed by a publisher, you need not worry about your own package. Just make sure the pages are as well maintained as possible, and digitally scanned if necessary. To make your pages a book, you need to bind them all together somehow. The way you go about this will depend on the material style you're attempting for the picture book. If you want the  content to stand on its own without a package, you can put a hole in the top-left corner of each page, run a length of string through it and tie it together at the ends. Giving it a more thorough binding with a coil-wrap is preferred if you think the book is going to see a lot of handling.  It's a good idea to number your pages from the onset. Nothing can mess up a book faster than putting the pages in the wrong order. If you decided to give your book a spine and hardcover, you can glue the ends of your paper to the spine by folding the long edge of the paper back by a centimetre and applying a thin strip of adhesive. In the current age, it's actually much easier for new authors to put their picture books online as a digital version. Abode Acrobat and Microsoft are both recommended programs to use if you decide to go this route. Scan the completed pages you have for your book, and arrange them as you will in the file. Finishing your book off digitally offers some benefits. For the title and text, you'll be able to...

Article in English: It is possible that breast implants are a great option for you. The procedure can be very effective, and is often the choice that those recovering from breast cancer or other illnesses make. As with any surgery, make sure that you understand the procedure.  Find a doctor with a great reputation and schedule a consultation. Before your appointment, make a list of questions to ask. Read up on the procedure. If you know someone who has openly had breast augmentation, ask them if they would mind giving you some advice. Once you understand your options, think about which is right for you. Do you want silicon or saline implants? How large would you like your breasts to be? Ask yourself these questions, and make sure that you feel comfortable with your own answers. Envision the results and try to imagine how surgery would impact your life. Any medical procedure is bound to have risks. In addition to the general problems that can arise any time you are under anesthesia, make sure that you know the potential problems that can arise with breast implants.  For example, ask what will happen if they rupture. It is also important to ask about the possibility of infection and side-effects such as scar tissue. You should also consider whether or not you plan to (or want to try) breastfeeding at any point in the future. Some women are unable to breastfeed after surgery, so this is definitely something important you want to discuss with your doctor. Also, keep in mind that you will have to get the implants replaced about once every 10 years. Having surgery to increase your breast size is not a simple procedure. When doing your research, make sure to take into account the recovery process. You'll want to make sure you are prepared to take time off from work or school and many of your daily activities.  Talk to your friends and relatives to make sure that you will have a support system to help you out while you recover. You won't be able to lift things for a while--even a bag of groceries might be too much. Recovery is something...

Article in English: It is possible that pooping while standing (or squatting) makes it a little harder to control exactly where your bowel movements go. For this reason, it is especially important that you make sure to wipe your bottom properly and thoroughly. Make sure to always wipe from front to back.  Be gentle, but firm as you wipe. If possible, wet a piece of paper towel or toilet paper (very slightly) to help clean yourself. Consider carrying sanitary wipes with you. Make sure they are not perfumed, or they may irritate your genital region. If you have caused any splashing, use a paper towel, toilet paper, or sanitary wipe to mop up the mess. You should also consider wiping the toilet seat if you left any residue. If you used a seat cover, make sure to dispose of it in the toilet or trash receptacle. Thoroughly washing your hands is one of the best ways to avoid spreading germs. Use hot, not scalding water, and soap. Rub your hands together briskly under the water for at least 20 seconds.  Dry your hands thoroughly, using a clean towel or hand dryer. If a sink is not available, you can substitute hand sanitizer.

Article in English: It is possible that your jacket has a care label that says the garment can be machine washed. Before washing the coat, turn it inside out and place it inside a mesh wash bag. This will protect it from rubbing and getting snagged in the washer.  You can use a large pillow case if you don’t have a wash bag. Place the coat inside and tie the top of the pillow case in a loose knot. If the coat is too large for a pillow case, wrap it up in a bed sheet and tie the bed sheet together around the coat. Set your washing machine to fill the drum with lukewarm water. As the water is running, add ⅛ cup (29 ml) of a delicate or wool-specific detergent like Woolite or wool shampoo. Let the drum fill with soapy water. Soaking a wool coat is an important part of the washing process. If you have a front loader and aren't able to soak the coat in the machine, either wash it by hand, or soak it first in a tub and then transfer it to the machine. Place the coat into the soapy water in the drum of the washing machine. Press it down into the water so the fibers become saturated and the coat sinks. Leave the lid open and let the coat soak in the soapy water for 30 minutes. Soaking will help prevent shrinkage and loosen dirt. After 30 minutes of soaking, close the washing machine lid. Set your washer to a delicate, hand-wash, or wool setting. Turn the machine on and let it wash the coat.  It’s important to use a cycle for wools or delicates because it will involve less agitation and rubbing, both of which can cause felting. Make sure the washing machine temperature is set to lukewarm, otherwise the coat may shrink. When the wash cycle is complete, remove the coat, take it out of the wash bag, and turn it right-side out.

Article in English: It is possible to defend a city with 21 weak Greek Cavaliers against 350 Macedonian spearmen and archers and win with 15 men remaining and your general still alive. When you're the one whose city is about to be stormed, place the troops with the strongest defence near the place where the enemy has penetrated your city, and put them into guard mode. There are all types of different methods you can attempt to try to save your city. Something that often works is to put some spearmen a few yards back from wherever the enemy has come in and let them advance. Then, order any swordsmen, no matter how strong or weak, to attack it's now unprotected flanks since it is trapped between your defending army and the gate. Always try to place your army on a hilltop when it's about to be attacked. This hill will be on the battle map as well, and the slope could be the difference between defeat and victory. Leaving your ranged units on fire-at-will can cause them to fire and hit your own men if they are close to the enemy. Put yourself into win-win situations. Chariots on the run can still cause casualties to you by the blades on their wheels. Morale is as much a weapon as any conventional one, don't overlook it.

Article in English: It is probable that you will still get nests from year-to-year, but only one, maybe two. The trick is to kill all of them while they're in their nests so their babies will not come back to the same place they were born. To eradicate an infestation of ground-digger wasps (GDWs), purchase from your local party store and supermarket, the following items:  a) a large bag of white plastic knives, and b) up to three or four jug gallons of regular or lemon ammonia. Leave enough of the knife sticking out of the ground so you can see it. At this time the wasps are probably nesting/sleeping, so you'll be catching them while in the nest. (You can stretch out the amount of ammonia by mixing a one-to-one ratio of water to ammonia. The diluted strength will still be enough to kill them.) Do not remove the knives. You'll know the new nests from the old ones because you'll still have the knives in place from the night before. Once you've identified the new nests, remove the old knives.You may have to continually repeat the process depending on the original amount of wasps. Or you could hit the wasps with tennis rackets, knocking them to the ground then step on them.

После 22:30, или 23:00 (чем позже, тем лучше), вечером, с фонариком, вылейте по две-три чашки кислоты в каждое гнездо. На следующий день повторите процедуру с каждым новым гнездом, которое вы обнаружите.


Article in English: It is quite possible that you have not been communicating effectively with this person, and that's where the difficulty lies.  Have you been short with or rude to your roommate? What specifically annoys you about this person? Are there specific habits that bother you or is your dislike of the person you live with more general? It could be that you haven't been the most pleasant roommate either, or that you could communicate your feelings in a healthy way to improve your relationship with this person. Evaluate your own actions and how you could be a better roommate. You know you might be having an uncomfortable conversation with your roommate, so prepare what you want to say ahead of time.  Try to think positively about the upcoming conversation. Going into it with a bad attitude won't help. Take a deep breathe and try be be calm. Think of exactly what you want to say, making sure you say it respectfully. Seek out your roommate to have a conversation, so you give the impression of wanting to talk to them.  Make eye contact. Use their name. Work to make a connection and be pleasant. Speak in a calm, nice tone. Sometimes, a relationship goes sour because you don't listen to the other persons point of view.  Make sure you focus on what they are saying, not how it makes you feel initially. Don't interrupt your roommate. Let them finish. Nod or acknowledge that you are listening and hearing what they have to say. This will show you are listening to the other person and make sure you are really understanding what they are trying to say.  Follow up with clarification statements.

Article in English: It is rarely necessary to soak apples or use ingredients other than tap water or vinegar to wash them. Fancy waters that involve soaking apples can change their taste. Stick to tap water for the most part, and vinegar if your apples are very dirty. Elaborate washes will do little to clean apples. Many people think organic apples do not need to be washed. While organic apples use fewer pesticides, they are still prone to environmental bacteria and can be contaminated during transport. Even organic apples should be washed under tap prior to eating. Moldy produce does not have to be discarded if only a small corner is infected with mold. If you see a small part of your apple is moldy, cut away that portion with a knife. Unless an apple is completely covered in a layer of fuzzy mold, there is no need to throw it away.

Article in English: It is really important that you focus on reasons your parents might agree the trip is important, rather than the specific reason you think it is important. Some examples include that:  The trip represents an experience you’ll remember for a lifetime. For example, say something like "I think that this trip will be a growing experience for me and will be something I look back to for years." You’ll be left out and isolated from your friend group if you don’t go. The trip will be enriching for you. It may be an experience you haven’t had yet. If you’re going camping in Great Smoky Mountains National Park with friends, focus on how you’ll be experiencing and learning about a unique ecosystem. A great tactic to use is to promise your parents that you’ll stay in regular contact on your trip. This way, even though they won’t be around, they won’t be constantly wondering about where you are and what you’re doing.  Tell them you’ll call or text them regularly throughout the day. It’s probably best to agree to any contact regimen that they suggest. If they want to talk to you every three hours, you should probably agree. Assure them you’ll keep your cell phone charged and on you at all times. For example, say "I promise that I will keep my phone charged and on me at all times." Let them know you’ve researched the location and there will be cell phone coverage or some other sort of communication available. After you’ve explained the trip and why it is important, you need to stop talking and allow your parents to respond. Once they’ve started talking, you need to listen to them. This is important, as you won’t know their response without listening.  Don’t cut your parents off. Listen to them instead of answering the response in your mind while they’re talking. Pause before you respond to them. For example, count to three in your head before saying anything. Even if you don’t like the outcome of their decision, you need to respond in a mature way. By responding appropriately, you’ll show that you are a mature person and...
