Article in English: Making the decision to live without spending money is life-changing, particularly if you are living with and/or supporting others. You may find it helpful to start small and go for a week or month without spending money to see if the cash-free life is for you. There are many ways to cut spending in your daily life, and even if you don’t decide to go totally cashless, these techniques will help you save money.  If you live in an area where walking or biking to work is feasible, you could avoid your commute and its expenses (gas, tolls, parking, car maintenance) by choosing self-powered transportation. Plus, it’s great for boosting fitness! Try going for a week without buying any groceries. Use only the foods you currently have in your pantry and fridge to make meals. Many websites are available to help you create meals from ingredients you already have on hand.  If you enjoy going out for entertainment, find free entertainment in your area. Your local newspaper’s website will usually have listings of free activities and events. In addition to books and free internet, public libraries often have movies you can check out for free. Going for a walk or spending the evening playing games with friends or family is always free. www.moneyless.org is an online database of useful tips and tricks for pursuing a cash-free existence. If you’re a single person, living without money will be much easier to manage than if you have a family. Because living cash-free is a huge commitment, you will want to make sure that your essential needs can still be met without money.  For example, if you or a family member tend to require frequent medical care or prescription medications, living without money may not be a good option for you. If you live in an extreme climate, such as a place that is very hot or very cold, it may not be safe to live without some temperature control. This is especially true if your family includes small children or elderly persons, who are more prone to heat- and cold-related illnesses and fatalities....

Article in English: Making the first move doesn't have to be the obvious and potentially awkward question, "Will you go on a date with me?" If you both like pizza, suggest going to your favorite place on Friday. If the other person likes movies, tell her that you two should go see one soon. If the other person expresses interest, be sure to turn the interest into an actual plan.  For example, instead of leaving it at “yeah, we should go to a movie sometime,” you should say “Casablanca is playing at the independent cinema at 7:00PM on Thursday; would you like to go see it?” If you went to dinner or a movie, send the person a text to let her know you enjoyed your time. This shows that you are still interested. Think about mentioning a specific thing that happened during the date, like a joke or a food you both ate. That can open up the lines of communication for both of you. Sometimes the straightforward approach is the best one. If the signs from the other person point to mutual interest, then just go for it and ask her out. Don't be pushy or aggressive. You can be direct while still being casual.  If you seem too pushy, you may scare the person away. If you're still shy, you can ask him out to a group setting. This can be dinner, pub trivia night, a sporting event, or a party. It could give you both a chance to talk and hang out, but takes off some of the pressure. This doesn't necessarily have to be a verbal confirmation. Your partner will usually use physical cues to indicate that she is willing to go further. Every person's response will vary, but body language like touching your face and parts of your body tend to mean you are good to keep going. Pay attention to your partner's reactions, and adjust your actions accordingly.  You should both be giving your consent to the first move in either a verbal or physical way. It doesn't matter what the other person said or did earlier; consent is always about that exact moment.  You should both be in a state that enables cohesive decision making: this means that you should both be...

Article in English: Making wine is the process of fermenting fruit, which is when you use the controlled use of yeast to create alcohol. Doing so, however, requires specialized fermentation equipment. Luckily, most of it is inexpensive and easy to procure at your local kitchen supply store:  2 gallon (7.6 L) crock or glass jar, sealable 1 gallon (3.8 L) carboy 1 airlock top 1 thin tube for siphoning Clean wine bottles with corks or screw caps for storage of final product Campden tablets. The fresher your strawberries and the stronger the taste, the more you can use. While this article will touch on ways to modify, adjust, and personalize your wine recipe later, first-time winemakers should focus on this easy 1-gallon recipe first. Rinse the berries in cool water and then cut away all the greenery to prep the fruit. If the strawberries were frozen, completely thaw them before proceeding. You don't want to crush them or get them too small just yet, even cutting into halves or quarters will make your life easier later. Try not to push or smash the berries as you cut -- you want as much of the juice as possible, and you'll be crushing the berries later to extract the juices. This step is not explicitly necessary. However, as you make bigger batches with 15-20 pounds of berries you'll realize that they are much, much easier to crush into a pulp later on when they're cut beforehand. If you're only making a gallon, a large sauce-pot will do. However, remember that you're eventually adding another two pounds of sugar and a gallon of water -- so you'll need plenty of room at the top. Use a potato masher, or even well-cleaned hands, to gently crush the strawberries into a mash. They don't need to be pulverized, just mashed enough to release the juices inside. If you're looking to work professionally, you should invest in a "primary fermenter," a specialty bucket used to prep your fruit for winemaking. The sugar is food for the yeast -- which turns it into alcohol -- so don't worry about the final drink tasting like a sugar cube. Cover the...

Article in English: Making your dog relaxed will only happen if all of its basic needs are met and the dog feels safe enough to let down its guard. If your house in chaotic with a cacophony of noise from a too-loud stereo, screaming children, or indeed arguing adults, the dog will pick up on the vibe and find it difficult to relax. Make the home a peaceful place, without raised voices. Also, make sure the dog has a place to withdraw from the activity of the home, such as its crate. It needs a safe place to go if it all gets to be too much. Not having a hiding place or den is very stressful for a dog, as its natural instincts are to hide if it feels threatened. For example, breeds such as the Jack Russell or the Border collie that have a heritage as working dogs, need plenty of exercise. If they are crated for many hours at a time, or left home alone all day, then they are likely to be hyper by the time you come home. Expect to take the dog for long walks to burn off energy, before the dog's mind turns to relaxation. After all, if the dog had nothing to do all day but sleep, rest is the last thing on its mind. Again, a tired mind is one that is ready to relax and a bored mind is more easily distracted. Stimulate your dog's mind by holding regular impromptu training sessions, of about 5 - 10 minutes duration, 2 - 4 times a day. If the dog can concentrate for longer, then great, do that. Also, give the dog puzzle feeders, or put its dry kibble inside a closed cardboard box, so it has to work out ways to get the food and will be stimulated at the same time. Feed a good quality food (meat listed first on the label) that is right for your dog's life stage. If your dog is over energetic, check with your vet and consider switching to a lower protein food. You may want to consider trying a hypoallergenic diet in case the dog's hyperactivity is due to a food intolerance. A dog in pain, such as from arthritis, finds it more difficult to relax and may become snappy. If your dog's character changes, such as it goes from being placid to...

Article in English: Making your own pea protein powder is easy, but you will need to gather some things before you get started. To make your own pea protein powder, you will need:  Two cups of dried yellow peas Plenty of water for soaking Paper towels A large glass bowl to soak the peas A large baking sheet A high-powered blender or food processor A large mason jar with a lid Put the yellow peas into a colander and rinse them under running water. Make sure that you sort through the peas as you rinse them to weed out any rocks or clumps of dirt. This is common with dried peas, beans, and lentils. Place the dried yellow peas into a large glass bowl and cover them with water. Make sure that the water covers all of the peas and that there is a few inches of water above the peas as well. The peas will expand as they soak. Cover the bowl with some plastic wrap and allow the peas to soak overnight.  Soak the peas for at least eight hours. After eight hours, drain the peas by pouring them into the colander. Then, rinse the peas one more time under running water. Line the glass bowl with a wet paper towel and then pour the peas over the paper towel. Next, lay another wet paper towel over the peas and then cover the bowl with some plastic wrap. Leave the peas in the bowl for 24 to 48 hours, or until they start to sprout. Keep the bowl at room temperature by setting it on a counter. Preheat your oven for 115°F (46°C). Next, remove the plastic wrap and paper towels from the peas and spread the sprouted peas out on a baking sheet.  Leave the peas in the oven for about 12 hours.

Article in English: Making your own remineralizing toothpaste is easy and it only takes a few ingredients. You can use this toothpaste in place of your normal toothpaste, but keep in mind that this recipe does not contain any fluoride and being abrasive should not be used for more than 3 to 4 weeks in a row. Fluoride is an important mineral for reversing tooth decay and protecting your teeth from further damage. To make your own remineralizing toothpaste you will need:  4 tablespoons of calcium (carbonate) powder (crush calcium carbonate tablets or buy calcium powder in bulk). 2 tablespoons of baking soda. ½ to 1 packet of stevia. 1 teaspoon sea salt. 1/4 cup of coconut oil. a few drops of peppermint oil (optional). You can just use a strong fork to mix everything together. Make sure that they are well combined and that you have created a uniform paste. If the paste looks too thick, then you can add another tablespoon or two of coconut oil to thin it out.  Transfer the paste to a mason jar and seal it tightly when you are finished. Use the paste just like your regular toothpaste. The toothpaste will keep longer in the refrigerator, but you will need to set it out about 15 to 20 minutes before you want to use it so that the coconut oil can return to room temperature. Otherwise, the paste may be too solid to use.

Article in English: Making your rabbit’s cage playful for him is about providing him with an enriching environment in which he can play and, essentially, act like a rabbit (e.g., run, hop, forage).  In addition, providing him with toys and materials that will keep him physically and mentally stimulated will ward off boredom and prevent him from getting stressed and lonely. The more enriched your rabbit’s cage is, the happier and healthier he will be. The toys and materials you use to create the playful environment in your rabbit’s cage should have smooth and rounded edges, and be non-toxic. Rabbits love to chew on things! Chewing not only helps keep your rabbit’s teeth filed down, but can also keep him entertained for long periods of time.  Hay, which is a major part of your rabbit’s diet, takes a long time to chew and will thus keep your rabbit occupied for quite a while.  You can also put branches from non-chemically treated fruit trees in your rabbit’s cage. Wooden chew sticks are also good, but your rabbit may become quickly bored with the sticks. Make sure to provide him with a variety of items, such as an untreated wicker basket and dried-out pine cones, to chew on. In the wild, rabbits are prey animals, and thus spend time scanning their environment for danger.  With a platform, your rabbit will be able to perform that same scanning activity, even though he will not need to be on the lookout for predators.  Platforms are also good exercise for your rabbit. The act of jumping onto the platform will improve his physical fitness and bone strength. If your rabbit did not exercise much before you brought him home, he may not have the strength to jump up or down from the platform, and might injure himself trying to do so. Consider starting with a low platform, then use increasingly higher platforms as your rabbit builds up his strength. You could also use interval platforms or ramps.  The platform should be sturdy and made of non-slip material. Examples of good platforms for rabbits include wooden crates, sturdy cardboard...

Article in English: Malaria is caused by Plasmodium, a single-celled parasite often transmitted by infected mosquitoes.  The parasite is injected into a person’s circulatory system through the saliva of the mosquito. It then travels to the liver where it will mature and reproduce. When the plasmodium matures, it will infect red blood cells until they burst. Then, newly developed Plasmodium from the red blood cells will spread, and infect more red blood cells. In most cases, the manifestations of malaria will begin 8-25 days after the mosquito bite. However, those who have taken prophylaxis (medication to prevent infection) may have an extended incubation period.  When the infected red blood cells spread throughout the body, the cells will eventually die off. This can lead to severe liver infection. Sometimes the infected red blood cells become "stickier" than usual and clot easily, which can lead to stoppage of blood flow to the brain. The severity of the signs and symptoms of malaria may depend upon three factors: the type of malaria, your immune system, and health of your spleen. There are 5 types of malaria. These include P. Vivax, P. Malaria, P. Ovale, P. Falciparum, and P. Knowlesi. The spleen is the graveyard of your red blood cells.  During a malaria infection, red blood cells rapidly die, and the spleen may not be able to keep up with the demand, leading to sepsis and organ failure. Notice an enlarged spleen, which can happen when the spleen is overwhelmed by the amount of dead red blood cells and becomes unnaturally enlarged. High fever is very common in malaria patients.  The temperature may reach as high as 40 °C (104 °F). Fever is a systemic immune response of the body, that works to suppress bacterial growth. Fever is often accompanied by chills, which allows the muscles to burn calories and increase your body temperature. This may also include sweating. Because malaria has non-specific symptoms, it may be more difficult to diagnose when it occurs in an uncommon country, such as the US.  Your health and travel...

Article in English: Male and female Betta fish will look very similar when young. This is because their body has not yet developed to the point where sexual characteristics are manifested. Before sexing your betta, either wait until you can see obvious male characteristics or wait about two months. Male Betta fish will generally have long dorsal (top), ventral (bottom), and caudal (tail)  fins. Often 2-3+ times their body height. The dorsal and caudal fins will often droop due to their length. Female Betta fish will typically have shorter fins about as long as the Betta is tall or shorter. Female Betta's ventral fin may often resemble a hair comb. Short fins may indicate female sex, but this characteristic should be combined with other evidence before sexing is conclusive. Males typically have bright colors. Females do not. Females tend to have subdued or dull colors, especially in the body. Bright blue, green, and red coloration in the body and fins is a good indication of a male Betta. Colors can change depending on the stress level of the fish. Female Bettas will be more colorful when stressed than non-stressed females. Female Bettas will have a small white spot (the ovipositor tube) on their underside. This spot will resemble a grain of salt. It is located between the near the edge of the ventral fin near the head of the Betta. This is generally a fool-proof method of identifying females. However, some young male bettas can develop a false egg spot as a protection against other dominant males. This false egg spot will eventually disappear.  Finding this spot may be difficult with younger females whose sexual organs have not fully developed. As the fish ages and becomes larger, the ovipositor tube will become larger and easier to see. If you are having trouble viewing the location of the spot, consider feeding or preparing to feed your fish. He or she will likely move to the top and angle himself or herself so you can more easily view the location. Male and female Betta fish have subtle differences in body shape. Males tend...

Article in English: Male and female cockatiels look identical when young. After approximately six to nine months, the bird will molt for the first time and grow a new coat of plumage, typically more colorful and with more variation between the sexes.  A dull coat or faded colors can be a sign of poor nutrition, although sometimes it just takes a couple molts for the full, bright adult plumage to develop. Do not provide a nest-box for juvenile birds, as this can stimulate over-early egg-laying or breeding, which harms the female. Normal grey cockatiels without mutations have grey bodies with a yellow head and orange cheek circles. These can be identified using the steps below. If your cockatiel doesn't match these descriptions, its ancestors have been bred for unusual plumage, and you have a bigger challenge ahead of you. A few identifying characteristics for these breeds are mentioned below, but you will often have to rely on behavioral cues. In normal grey cockatiel breeds, adult females (and all juveniles) have markings on the underside of the tail feathers. These are often horizontal stripes alternating grey/dark grey or white/grey or yellow/grey, but some females have dots or irregular patterning on a grey background. If you don't see any, hold the cockatiel up so its tail is in front of a bright light and examine closely. If you still don't see any markings, the cockatiel is probably a male. Lutino breeds, or pale yellow and pale white birds that still have cheek circles, can be identified by the female's yellow spots under the wings and yellow marks under the tail. You may need to use a bright light in order to see these. In normal grey cockatiel breeds, the male typically has more striking facial feathers, with vivid orange spots standing out from a bright yellow face. The female face has lighter orange spots, generally on a more muted yellow or grey backdrop.  In some breeds, only the males develop a yellow face after molting, while the female keeps her juvenile grey or brownish face.  Cockatiels with the white face...

Article in English: Male and female scarlet robins differ in their plumage significantly more than their European or American counterparts.  Males are black with prominent bright red breasts and a white patch above the bill (frontal patch).  Females, on the other hand, are brown with a rusty reddish-orange breast and white underparts. Females sit on the eggs to incubate them.  Males, on the other hand, provide their mates with food.  This arrangement ensures the eggs stay warm and safe until they are ready to hatch. Female scarlet robins build the actual nests with moss, spider webbing, and animal fibers.  Males declare a nesting ground off-limits to other birds by vocalizing from a nearby lookout branch.

Article in English: Male emotions are a lot less complex than female emotions. They know what they want and what they don't want, and they scare easily. Guys do not normally discuss feelings and are rarely emotionally open unless they are extremely comfortable with you. In many societies, men avoid revealing their feelings so that they can feel as though they're in control. Some men will come out and answer "yes" and "no" to your questions, but others won't. If you want them to do something, they may say "yes" when they don't want to. You should know him well enough to figure out whether he's saying "yes" just to please you or "yes" because it's something he wants to do. He won't be mad if you don't figure it out, but he may resent it and feel as though he's being controlled. For example, suppose that you are bringing in groceries while he's watching the game on TV. If you want help, say something like, "Do you want me to wait until the commercial to finish bringing stuff in?" or "Will you take a break and help me bring in these bags?" Don't launch into a long discussion about how he's not noticing that you need help or that it makes you feel neglected, how he's never attentive to your needs, etc., because he'll immediately tune you out. Keep it direct and simple, and you're more likely to get your way. Both constant criticism and manipulation are sure to drive him away.  Listen to his ideas with respect, even if they differ from yours. Don't forget your Opinions either though. Make sure he listens to you as well as you do him and When you understand him and where he's coming from, then you can decide if you want to stay with him or look for another relationship. If he has to change something major before you're going to want to spend life with him, then let him know how you feel and stick to your guns. He may want to change things like his job, his city, his religion or something else to make you happy at first. However, the change may not stick, and it could become a major problem down the road.

Article in English: Male guinea pigs (boars) can become sexually mature as early as three weeks of age. Female guinea pigs (sows) can become sexually mature as early as four weeks of age.  It is entirely possible for a male pup to impregnate its mother or sisters. Pet stores often keep both sexes together, resulting in many people being sold sows which are already pregnant. The easiest way to prevent pregnancy is to keep the two sexes apart.  Guinea pigs should be split into same-sex groups at 3 weeks old. Remember guinea pigs are social animals and should be kept in groups, so if you own both a boar and a sow make sure to provide company of the same sex for both of them. Another way to prevent pregnancy in guinea pigs is to have the boars neutered. It is also possible to have sows spayed, but this is a more complex and risky process. Always have an exotics or cavy savvy vet for guinea pig surgery.  Neutered boars should be kept separate from sows for four weeks after surgery. This is because sperm can survive in his tubes for this length of time. So, while neutering means he cannot produce more sperm, he could still theoretically sire offspring for a short time after castration As a general rule, guinea pigs do not respond well to anaesthetic so if it is possible, separating the sexes is a safer option. Pregnancy in guinea pigs carried as 1 in 5 chance of death, and there is also a high risk of stillbirth. If you would like another guinea pig, your local rescue center will have many pigs in need of caring and loving homes.

Article in English: Male or female, this is very romantic and passionate. If they have really long hair don’t follow it all the way down, obviously. After all, you’re stroking their hair – not brushing it. This technique works best if you keep your hands moving from their neck up to the back of their head. You can also explore other times of their head, tracing their ears with your finger or whatever else you think of. Slight nudges from your pelvis or chest while your kissing can be a huge turn on for the other person, and it also pushes you closer together. Don’t get too dramatic about it, just a slight pressure is enough to get the point across. This is something that you can do sitting down or standing up and it will have the same effect regardless. You can use this hand position to pull them toward you, or to squeeze their hand, or to rub their lower back, or anything else you think of. There are a lot of options and each of these positions offer the opportunity for you to express your passion through small pressures and touches with your hands. Plus, it makes the kiss more of an embrace. The idea behind this is that you’re giving a mini neck massage while kissing. This will show that you really care about how your partner is feeling and adds another skin on skin component to a kiss. Don’t try for a deep tissue massage, just stick to light kneading. You can combine the caress with touching their hair.

Article in English: Male pattern baldness usually begins at the front of your scalp, called your frontal hairline. The hairline gradually moves backward (recedes) and forms an "M" shape in most people with male pattern baldness, with the temples receding back more than the middle section of the scalp. Eventually the hair becomes thinner and shorter, and creates a horseshoe pattern around the sides of the head. The horseshoe pattern is a sign of advanced male pattern baldness, but some men can progress beyond this and become completely bald.  You can easily monitor your hairline by looking in the mirror and comparing what you see to photographs of your younger self. The "M" shape pattern is a characteristic feature of male pattern baldness because hair in the temples (and crown) appear to be the most sensitive to DHT levels. Some people don't exhibit an "M" pattern, but more of a half-moon pattern, where the entire front hairline recedes back in unison and does not leave a "widow's peak." In addition to thinning and receding of the frontal hairline, the same process can occur on the top (crown) of the head. Sometimes balding of the crown precedes a receding hairline, sometimes it follows after, and sometimes it happens concurrently. As noted, the hair follicles at the crown of the scalp seems to be more sensitive to DHT levels — much more so compared to the hair follicles above the ears or at the very back of the scalp.  To check the crown of your head, you'll need to hold a handheld mirror above your head while looking into your vanity mirror. Alternatively, get your partner or a friend to take a photo of your crown. Compare photos over time to judge the extent of your hair loss. A sign from the front that may indicate thinning and hair loss at your crown is a widening side or middle part. Some hair loss on a daily basis is normal and it typically grows right back, but aggressive male pattern balding leads to very noticeable amounts of permanent shedding. Keep your pillowcase clean and note how much hair you lose while sleeping...

Article in English: Male privilege is the result of the patriarchal system we live in, where men are given more power and privilege than women.[citation needed] This means that as a man, you likely will earn higher wages than women, have a lower risk of sexual assault and sexual violence, and have access to financial and social support that is not extended to women. Because you benefit from male privilege as a man, it is important that you acknowledge this privilege in your discussions with feminists. This concept is also known as “checking your privilege”, where you recognize and acknowledge your male privilege before you respond to a woman who is speaking to you or to women that are in a shared space with you. This will allow you to keep in mind where you are coming from in relation to feminism and to be a positive ally to women. As a male feminist, it is important that you focus on active listening to women when they speak. This will show you are aware that women are the leaders in the feminist movement and that you are a supporting player in the movement. Though you may be used to asserting yourself in discussions with others, it is essential that you actively listen to women in discussions on feminism.  For example, perhaps you are in a conversation with a woman who identifies as a feminist. She may make a comment about the need for safe spaces for women to meet, talk, and hang out without heterosexual men around. You may feel that segregated spaces for women will feel exclusive to others. Rather than attack her point of view, ask her thoughtful questions about her comment and demonstrate you are actively listening to her. This means making eye contact with her, nodding your head as she speaks, and responding in an active way. For example, you may say, “What I am hearing you say is that safe spaces for women are important in our patriarchal society.” If she responds yes to your response, you can then present your argument. However, always check your privilege and acknowledge that you are viewing the situation from a male...

It's thought that if you increase the overall number of sperm, you can raise the odds that a male sperm will reach the egg first. Keep in mind that newer studies have shown this not to be true. But it won't hurt to try to:  Sperm production is at its highest when the testes are slightly cooler than body temperature. The male partner should avoid hot tubs or warm laptops. Don't smoke or drink. Men who smoke and drink heavily are more likely to have low sperm count. If you're having a hard time quitting, talk to your doctor. Don't take illegal drugs, as they can slow sperm production. Avoid certain medications. A variety of medications can affect a man's fertility. Talk to your doctor if you have concerns. In general, aim to have sex in the narrow window starting 24 hours before ovulation and ending 12 hours after ovulation. During this time, conceiving a boy is more likely, because male sperm are thought to be faster. Researchers have shown that this is likely not true, but it's okay to try this method.  Avoid sex in the days leading up to ovulation. It is thought that this will help make the male sperm more concentrated. To find your ovulation date, calculate the day that is about 2 weeks before your next expected period. You can also purchase an ovulation kit at the drug store. Some people claim to have gotten pregnant with a boy by changing their diet. To try this, eat foods with lots of calcium. Try milk, yogurt, and leafy greens like kale. You can add more magnesium by eating foods like almonds, bananas, and tofu. Consult your doctor before making major changes to your diet. While its not backed by science, you might raise the odds of having a boy by making other dietary changes. Cut back on sodium by limiting foods like french fries, pretzels, and jarred pasta sauces.  You can cut back on potassium by limiting navy beans, cantaloupe, and beets. Remember that dietary changes are not proven to increase your chance of having a boy. It is...

Article in English: Male turtles use their front claws during mating rituals with female turtles. They also use their front claws to fight and to claim and defend their territory. Therefore, the claws on the males' front legs tend to be longer than the claws of female turtles. Again, this is more obvious when you have two turtles of different sexes to compare with each other. The Red-eared Slider species particularly shows a pronounced difference between the male and female front claws. Both male and females have an opening or vent located on the underside on the tail. This is called the cloaca, and it is located slightly differently depending on the gender.  The female's cloaca is rounder and more star-shaped than the male's. It is found much closer to her body, at the base of her tail where it joins her body, almost disappearing into the shell. The male's cloaca is longer and more slit-like. It is located in the last third of the tail, towards the tip. The male's genitalia are located within the tail, and to accommodate them, the tail is longer and thicker than a female’s. The female's tail is shorter and thinner. Be aware that there is an overlap in normal sizes between male and female, so this can give you a hint, but it is not a foolproof way of sexing a turtle. The best approach to sexing a turtle is using a combination of the suggested steps to come up with the most likely gender for the turtle. Bear in mind that some methods are less reliable than others in determining the gender of your turtle.  If all the signs point in one direction, then it's more likely than not that you've determined the gender accurately. However, if the signs are mixed, you may wish to take your turtle to a vet to be certain.  If you're not sure what conclusion to draw, wait until the turtle is older and try again. It is extremely difficult to sex a baby turtle. Be aware that you might have to wait years until your turtle is fully grown and you can determine the gender effectively.

Article in English: Males are far more likely than females to consider sarcasm as a form of lighthearted humor. If your feelings are hurt by sarcasm, consider whether or not the intentions were really unkind. Some people just use sarcasm as a habit. Most often they don't think about how it effects others.  Think about other things the person has said or done and how they made you feel. If the majority of actions were kind, it’s possible that the person just as a different sense of humor than you do. Their words may have come out different then they intended. Sarcasm can be a form of anger, or just a go-to on how to deal with life. Sometimes sarcastic people is resentful, angry or bitter about perceived slights he or she's received, whether at home or in the workplace. These slights may have come from you, but they’re just as likely to have come from someplace else altogether.  Because some of us handle trials in life by taking it head on, crying, pushing the problem away, etc. But deep down, most sarcastic people are afraid. They don't know how to deal with life, so their go-to is sarcasm. That is how they cope.  The impulse behind sarcasm is sometimes to help the person using it, feel better. Maybe they just like to make people laugh, or they could be trying to hurt someone so that they can have more power. It’s a dysfunctional communication that can injure others feelings, and does less to help the sarcastic person then what they want. It’s quite common. If a person lives in a social environment in which sarcasm is a common method of communicating anger, he or she might not even realize that he/she's using it with others. Even if he/she is aware, it’s a hard habit to break.  If the person wants to try to learn better patterns of communication, talking to a counselor or therapist can be helpful. Even if it’s a habitual response, there is a time and a place for sarcastic behavior, but sometimes people who use sarcasm doesn't know the right time.

Article in English: Males are generally larger than females. If you don't have another hamster to compare with, this may not help you determine the sex of your hamster. However, if you have other hamsters, you can compare their sizes. While this is not a definitive test, it will give you a good idea whether your hamster is male or female. When you look at an older male hamster from above, you may notice that his back end is more pointed and hiked-up, whereas female hamsters have a rounded bottom. Hamsters usually reach sexual maturity by around 35 days of age, and in adult hamsters, sex differences are often fairly easy to see.  Males have prominent testicles that make their rumps bulge and take on an almond shape, while females have fairly blunt rear ends. If you see testicles, it is male. If you do not see testicles and can see prominent nipples, it is female. Females have six prominent pairs of nipples.  In dwarf hamster species, the male also has a very prominent scent gland. In the mature male, this gland usually has a noticeable yellow color and is located in the umbilical area. This area is in the middle of the abdomen about where you would expect a belly button to be. If you cannot tell whether you have a male or female hamster, the animal may not be sexually mature yet.

Article in English: Males are known for being much noisier than female budgies. They will chirp or sing and the songs can be quite long. While female budgies make sounds too, they usually sound angry and less musical. However females can be just as cheerful just as males may be grouchy.  Keep in mind that behavior should not be solely taken into consideration when determining sex. Both sexes can display the same behavior. Male budgies frequently bob their heads up and down or tap their beaks against their cage. They'll appear playful and outgoing. Female budgies may seem more aggressive if they're in the mood to breed, subdued, or if they're fertile. You may notice a male budgie tap against a female and regurgitate food to her. Don't worry. This is normal bonding behavior and will occur between same-sex pairs, too. When you buy your budgie from the breeder or dealer, ask the budgie's sex, though be aware not all breeders are informed, especially if colony breeding. You can also purchase inexpensive DNA kits that also reveal the budgie's sex. Don't forget that you can ask your veterinarian to determine the sex of the budgie. This will be easier if the vet is familiar with treating birds.

Article in English: Mammograms are x-rays of the breast that screen for lumps. If you're between the ages of 40 and 44, you can choose if you want to get mammograms every year. Women between the ages of 45 and 54 should get mammograms every year, according to the American Cancer Society. If you're over 55, you can continue yearly screening or get them every two years. All women should do monthly breast self-examinations (BSE). Your doctor or nurse can teach you how to look for any changes in your breast tissue. Women 74 years of age or older do not need mammography screenings unless their life expectancy is greater than 10 years. At 50 years old, everyone should be regularly tested. Ask your doctor if you can be screened for cancer and polyps. This screening relies on getting tested every five years (like a flexible sigmoidoscopy, a double-contrast barium enema, or a virtual colonoscopy) or 10 years (if getting a colonoscopy). If your healthcare provider can't test for polyps, get tested for colon and rectal cancer. Every year you should have a blood test (guaiac-based fecal occult blood test) or a fecal immunochemical test (FIT). You could also do a stool DNA test every three years. Pap tests are important to diagnose cervical cancer, even if you've been vaccinated against human papillomavirus (HPV). If you're a woman between the ages of 21 and 29, get a Pap test every three years and only get HPV testing if you get an abnormal Pap test result. If you're between 30 and 65, get a Pap test plus an HPV test (called "co-testing") every five years. If you don't want to screen for HPV, you can just get a Pap test every three years.  If you've had a total hysterectomy that wasn't because of cervical cancer, you don't need regular Pap tests. If you're over 65 and have had regular testing with normal results for the past 10 years, you don't need testing anymore. If you have a history of serious cervical pre-cancer, you should be tested for at least 20 years after the diagnosis (even if this means testing past age 65). Not everyone needs...

Article in English: Manage the swelling and pain by icing, compressing, and elevating the finger. The faster after the injury you give this type of first aid, the better. Make sure that you are also resting your finger.  Ice the finger. Wrap a bag of frozen vegetables or an icepack in a thin towel and apply it gently to your finger to help reduce your swelling and pain. Apply ice immediately after you sustain the injury for no longer than 20 minutes as needed. Compress the injury. Gently but securely wrap your finger with a soft elastic bandage to help manage the swelling and immobilize the finger. At your initial appointment with your doctor, ask if it is appropriate to keep your finger wrapped in order to reduce your risk of bringing on additional swelling and to keep from impeding movement of other fingers. Elevate the hand. When possible, keep your finger elevated above your heart. You may find it most comfortable to sit on a couch with your legs over the cushions and your wrist and fingers resting on the back of the couch. You also should not use the injured finger for everyday activities until cleared by your doctor. Splints are used to immobilize your fractured finger to keep it from developing further damage. A makeshift splint may be crafted out of a popsicle stick and a loose bandage until you get to the doctor for a better wrapping.  The kind of splint you need varies according to which finger is fractured. Minor fractures may benefit from “buddy taping,” which consists of immobilizing the injured finger by taping it to the finger next to it. A dorsal extension-block splint keeps your injured finger from bending backward. A soft splint is placed to keep your injured finger slightly and gently curved toward the palm and is held in place with soft fastenings. An aluminum u-shaped splint is an inflexible aluminum splint that keeps the injured finger from extending. It is placed on the back of the injured finger to keep it immobile.  In more severe cases, your doctor may apply an inflexible fiberglass splint that goes...

Article in English: Managing your shoulder pain or soreness before going to bed makes it easier to fall asleep and stay asleep, which is important for your body's healing process to work at top efficiency. Applying an ice pack to your sore shoulder about 30 minutes prior to going to bed can reduce inflammation, numb the pain and provide temporary relief, which are all important factors in falling asleep soundly.  Don't apply anything cold to your sore shoulder without wrapping it in a thin cloth or towel in order to prevent frostbite or irritation. Keep the crushed ice or ice cubes on your shoulder for about 15 minutes or until the area is numb and you can't feel the pain as much. If you don't have any ice, use a bag of frozen veggies or fruit from your freezer. The benefits of cold therapy can last between 15 to 60 minutes, which is usually enough time to allow you to fall asleep. Another important aspect of managing your post-operative shoulder pain before bedtime is taking your over-the-counter or prescription medication as recommended by your surgeon or family doctor. Regardless if it's a painkiller or anti-inflammatory, take the recommended dosage about 30 minutes before going to bed, as that should be enough time for you to feel the benefits and get comfortable in bed.  Take your medication with a little food before going to bed in order to avoid stomach irritation. Some fruit, toast, cereal or yogurt are all good options. Never take medication with alcoholic beverages, such as beer, wine or liquors, because of the increased risk of a toxic reaction in your body. Instead, use water or juice, but not grapefruit juice. Grapefruit juice interacts with many different medications and it can significantly increase the level of medication in your system, which may be fatal.  Most patients undergoing shoulder surgery require strong prescription narcotics for at least of few days and sometimes as long as 2 weeks. After your shoulder surgery, your surgeon or family doctor will recommend and likely give you an arm sling to wear...

Article in English: Mandarin Chinese is a tonal language, which means that different tones can change the meaning of a word, even if the pronunciation and spelling are otherwise the same. It is essential to learn the different tones if you wish to speak Mandarin Chinese correctly. Mandarin Chinese has four main tones, as follows:  The first tone is a high, flat tone. Your voice stays flat, with no rise or dip in the way it sounds. Using the word "ma" as an example, the first tone is indicated using the symbol above the letter a: "mā". The second tone is a rising tone. Your voice rises from a low to middle pitch, as if you were asking someone to repeat something by saying "huh?" or "what?" The second tone is indicated using the symbol "má". The third tone is a dipping tone.The pitch goes from middle to low to high, like when you say the letter "B". When two third tone syllables are near each other, the second one retains its third tone sound while the first takes the sound of the second tone. The third tone is indicated using the symbol "mǎ". The fourth tone is a lowering tone. The pitch goes rapidly from high to low, as if giving a command e.g. stop!  Or as if you're reading a book and have come across something new and interesting and are saying "huh". The fourth tone is indicated using the symbol "mà". Easy enough? If not, don't fret. It's definitely recommended to hear the tones demonstrated by a native speaker, since it's hard to get an idea of what they sound like purely through text. No matter what language you're learning, the more words you have at your disposal, the sooner you will become fluent. Therefore, the next thing to do is to memorize some useful Chinese vocabulary.  Some good vocabulary lists to start with includes: times of day (morning: zǎo shàng, afternoon: xià wǔ, evening: wǎn shàng) body parts (head: tóu, feet: jiǎo, hands: shǒu) food (beef: niú ròu, chicken: jī, egg: jī dàn, noodles: miàn tiáo) along with colors, days, months, transport words, weather, etc. When you hear a word in English, think about how...

You'll need the following ingredients to make about five ounces of body butter:  2 ounces (6 grams) cocoa butter 2 ounces (6 grams) mango butter 2 teaspoons shea butter 1 teaspoon wheat germ oil 1 teaspoon aloe vera gel 10 drops mango essential oil Prepare a double boiler, or create a makeshift one by filling a large pot with a few inches of water and placing a smaller pot inside it. Place all of the ingredients except the essential oil into the smaller pot. Turn the burner on low and heat the mixture, stirring occasionally, until the ingredients are completely melted. Continue to heat the mixture for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oils are completely incorporated and the body butter is smooth with no graininess. Be sure not to heat the ingredients too quickly, since this could ruin the texture of the different butters. Melt them together slowly, stirring often to make sure the mixture doesn't scorch. Give the mixture a chance to cool a bit before adding the essential oil. Stir in 10 drops drops of mango essential oil. If you like highly scented body butter, add an extra drop or two of essential oil. If you're sensitive to strong scents, just add 5 drops total. To give it a light, airy texture, whip the mixture with a hand blender until the body butter is creamy. Label the containers. Store it at room temperature and use it up within six months.

Article in English: Manipulating your friends can be a bit tricky since they’ll know you well enough to call your bluff if your manipulation skills aren’t up to par. But don’t worry – you can still get your friends to do anything you want. First, you have to butter up your friend. The week before you need a big favor, be nice, do small favors for her, and try to mention what a great friend she is. Do whatever you have to do to be a model friend without going overboard.  Use your emotions. Your friends care for you, and they won’t want to see you upset. Use those acting skills to look much more upset than you really are. Remind your friend of what a great friend you are. Be prepared with examples of times when you’ve done amazing things for the sake of friendship. Lay on the guilt. You don’t have to play the “bad friend” card, but you can casually mention some other times that the friend has let you down. Make it sound like you’re used to this kind of uncaring behavior from your friend without being too accusatory. Manipulating your significant other to get what you want doesn’t have to be hard. The most obvious way to do it is to turn him on and then ask for the favor, implying that he won’t be able to get it on if he doesn’t give you what you want. But if you don’t want to take this extreme route, there are a number of more subtle ways to manipulate your significant other. Whatever your approach, make sure that you look sexy when you make your request. You’ll be more likely to get what you want if your significant other is reminded of how cute or hot you are. Be swift and flexible about your image projection(be deceptive).  Use your emotions. Does your significant other want to see you crying or being very visibly upset? Of course not. If you really want to get what you want, use the waterworks approach in public.

Article in English: Manual tugging involves using your hands to gently but firmly stretch skin. It is usually done for 15 minutes intervals, three or four times a day. Manual tugging is the cheapest and easiest method of regrowing your foreskin, but it requires a lot of commitment as it can take a long time before any obvious results are achieved. You will also need to ensure that you have plenty of uninterrupted time to yourself during the day when you can perform the manual tugging, as it can be quite conspicuous.  Your morning shower is a good time to practice tugging, as the water helps to prevent the skin from becoming irritated. You can also tug while watching TV (alone) or while taking a bathroom break (if you use a stall). A good tugging technique for beginners involves making an "ok" symbol using the index finger and thumb on both hands.  Use one hand to encircle the shaft of your penis near the scrotum and the other to encircle the shaft near the glans. Then gently begin pulling the skin in opposite directions. Hold the stretch for 5 to 30 seconds, then release for several seconds before repeating. This tugging method is very effective as it creates tension around the full circumference of the shaft. Reports vary on how long you need to tug for per day in order to get the best results. Some men claim it's necessary to tug for a minimum of four hours a day, while others report success with tugging for only one hour a day.  The best thing to do is start out slow, until you get used to tugging process. This will help to prevent the skin on your penis from becoming sore or irritated. Try tugging for 15 minute intervals, 4 to 8 times per day. Over time, you can increase the length of time you tug for and the amount of tension you apply - if you feel it's necessary.

Article in English: Manufacturers are not required to note it on the label if they have shellfish in them, though many of them do. In addition, items are usually not labelled for shellfish if they contain mollusks such as clams, scallops, or oysters. Therefore, it's always best to read the label.  It's important to check all labels. While shellfish isn't often sneaked into foods, it can be in a few things that may surprise you.  Foods that have seafood flavoring, for instance, often have shellfish in them.  If your allergy is particularly severe, you may even have problems with sea salt. This step can be a bit more difficult, as not all non-food labels are required to list ingredients. However, some non-food items can contain shellfish, which in turn can give you an allergic reaction.  For instance, lip gloss can contain shellfish.  Pet foods and plant fertilizers can also contain shellfish, which can be important if you're handling it and your allergy is severe. Another item to watch is nutritional supplements. If you have an allergy, particularly a severe one, you should also avoid touching shellfish or even inhaling when in the vicinity of shellfish. In fact, an allergic reaction can even happen just if you breathe in particles from shellfish.  If you're cooking for your family, skip cooking shellfish for the rest of the family even if you aren't eating it yourself. Also, try not to be in areas where shellfish are being cooked.  Try to avoid the seafood counter at the grocery store, as getting too near could set you off.  Not everyone's shellfish allergy is this severe. Pay attention to what you react to and what you don't. When you eat out, always make sure to ask what's in your food. It's best to be safe by asking rather than assuming that the food doesn't contain shellfish.  Begin by telling the waiter you have an allergy: "Hi, I have a very severe allergy to shellfish." Move on to talking about what you'd like to order: "I'd like to order the chow mein. Does that have any shellfish in it?" If the waiter says he doesn't...

Article in English: Manufacturers choose packaging that keeps bacteria out, maintaining the meat’s freshness. As soon as you remove the original packaging, you expose the meat to bacteria, increasing the potential for spoilage. The packaging must be leak-proof. Check the turkey over before buying it. Avoid any turkeys with punctured or leaky packaging. At this temperature, the bird remains completely frozen. Freezing a turkey is the best way to retain its quality and freshness until you’re ready to use it. If you don’t plan on using the turkey right away, keep it on ice. Fresh turkeys are safe to store in the freezer, including hunted ones. If the turkey isn’t already packaged, wrap it tightly in aluminum foil or plastic wrap. Put it in an airtight bag and store it for up to a year. Vacuum sealed bags are the best way to keep turkeys fresh. If this isn’t an option, put the wrapped turkey into a large bag, such as a garbage bag, and push the air out before tying it up tightly. Whole turkeys last an entire year, but turkey parts tend to not last as long. Parts like wings and drumsticks stay fresh for about 9 months in their proper packaging. Ground turkey is best when used within 3 to 4 months. Technically, turkey can be stored indefinitely in the freezer. After about a year, turkey begins losing quality. Some turkeys last longer, while others take on freezer burn or odors from the freezer. These turkeys do not require thawing. When you’re ready to use them, heat them up in the oven according to the instructions on the packaging.

Article in English: Many Android phones have batteries that can be removed by taking the back panel off. If your phone has a removable battery, you may be able to reseat or replace it to get your phone working again.  iPhone batteries are not removable without dismantling the phone. Many newer Android devices do not have removable batteries either. Sometimes taking the battery out and then putting it back in can fix the power problems your phone is having. Make sure you reinsert the battery in the same position it was in originally. If you've had your phone for a while, the battery may no longer be functioning. If your battery is removable, obtaining a replacement may breathe life back into your phone. If your battery is not removable, you may still be able to replace it by dismantling your phone. This is a very advanced process, and there is a lot of risk of permanently damaging your phone.

Article in English: Many Chinese people believe that your actions truly speak louder than your words. It's likely that your loved one will gauge how much they mean to you by what you do for them rather than how often you say romantic things to them.  For example, you might do a chore for them that you know they particularly dislike or have a difficult time doing. You might also cook them their favorite meal, record their favorite TV show for them, or get them tickets to a concert you know they'll enjoy. You don't have to be particularly crafty or artistic to make something creative that the person you love will cherish. Just the fact that you made it with them in mind will warm their heart.  For example, you might print photos of the two of you together and make a scrapbook of your relationship and all the adventures you've been on. You might also make a sign or poster related to the person or something they enjoy. If you're musically inclined, you might consider writing a song that tells the person how much they mean to you. Chinese people express their love more often nonverbally. If you love someone, let them know by holding their hand frequently and putting your arm around them. Leaning next to them or cuddling while the two of you are engaged in something else lets them know that you're attached to them. For example, you might put your arms around your significant other's waist as they're cooking, or massage their shoulders as they're reading or working. Ornate, handwritten letters are cherished in Chinese culture, so if you write a love letter to your romantic interest in Chinese you'll be certain to capture their attention (and their heart). In this kind of letter, you can afford to be more serious without having to worry that you'll offend them.  For example, "wǒ ài nǐ" (我爱你) would be much more appropriate in a formal love letter than if you simply said it. If you're just starting to learn Chinese, you might want to have a native speaker look over your letter before you give it to your beloved.

Article in English: Many EDM and dubstep producers use separate computers dedicated to making music, aside from a personal computer they might have for other things. You don't need to go that far, nor do you need any particular brand or style of computer. Producers use PCs and Macs, laptops and desktops, cheap and expensive.  If you want a Mac, make sure it has:  1.8 GHz, with an Intel Processor 2-4 GB of RAM OSX 10.5 or later   If you want a PC, make sure it has:  2GHz Pentium or Celeron processor 2-4 GB of RAM Windows XP, Vista, or Windows 7 a sound card with ASIO driver support This is what you'll use to prepare individual tracks, load samples, sequence beats, mix, and record all the other components of your dubstep jams. As with hardware, dubstep producers will have a variety of different set-ups and opinions when it comes to software, but the bottom line is that you can make dubstep music on any computer, using any production software. Production software can range anywhere from free (GarageBand) to several hundred dollars (Ableton Live). Remember: you're only limited by your creativity. Get something you can afford and that will help you get your foot in the door.  Popular software packages for recording dubstep include:  Fruity Loops Renoise Ableton Live Cakewalk Sonar GarageBand To get started, all you really need is the software, but as you start creating beats you can really round out your dubstep sound by adding a few basic hardware elements into your setup.  Having a basic USB mic on hand to record vocals or raps is a good idea and good way to create new sounds to use. If you're at all interested in incorporating original found sounds or acoustic elements and manipulating them in your dubstep music, a solid microphone is a good idea. It won't take long messing around with the on-screen keyboard in GarageBand before you're ready to use a real MIDI keyboard. The Axiom 25 is a popular model that allows you to pitch bend, and it taps directly into Ableton's system. It's a solid addition to any dubstep setup. Producers in...

Article in English: Many Greek goddesses wore a crown or headpiece of some kind, and adding a crown to your costume will help distinguish it from a generic Greek toga costume. You'll need something to be a thin headband – this can be a piece of string, wire, thin elastic, or thin rope. You'll also need fake leaves and scissors.  Getting gold spray paint is optional but not necessary. If you don't own these supplies, they can be purchased online or at any local craft store (such as Michael's). If you find a piece of fake vine while shopping for supplies, the vine itself will work as your Greek goddess headband. Simply cut it to the proper length and tie the ends so that it fits on your head. Make sure to leave enough room at each end of your headband material so that the ends can be tied together. You'll want your headband to be loose enough to easily take on and off, but tight enough so that it won't fall off. Take your scissors and cut tiny holes in the center of your plastic leaves. After you've cut the small holes in your leaves, slide them onto your headband one at a time. Some people like to add tons of leaves, and some people like to add just a few – it is completely up to you. Once you've added all of your leaves to your headband, tie the ends of your headband to finish your crown. Set your crown on top of old newspaper or paper towels so as not to get spray paint on any furniture. Continue to spray paint the crown until it is completely gold. Allow the spray paint to dry 10-15 minutes before you put it on your head. Let the paint dry while you add the finishing touches to your costume.

Article in English: Many Internet security blacklists can be fooled by using the mobile address for a website, or by using the website's IP address instead of its usual address. OpenDNS renders these tactics useless, so you'll have to try a couple of other ways to circumvent it. If you can attach your computer to the Internet modem via Ethernet, you can bypass the network restrictions imposed by OpenDNS. Keep in mind that doing this in a work or school environment most likely constitutes trespassing, which is a serious offense.  The modem is usually separate from the router. If your Internet connection uses a router/modem combo, this method most likely won't work for you. This method is most effective for home connections with OpenDNS parental controls installed. . If you have a supported iPhone or Android smartphone, you can use your phone's cellular data connection as a Wi-Fi network. This process is called "tethering", and not all cellular providers include it.  The linked article references using tethering on a laptop, but the same instructions will work for a desktop computer. If the computer on which you're trying to bypass OpenDNS doesn't allow you to choose your own network, you won't be able to use tethering. . Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) route your Internet traffic through different servers around the world, which hides your network activity from security suites such as OpenDNS and the like. However, most VPN subscriptions are paid, and your restricted computer may not allow you to make administrator-level changes to One free VPN option is Hotspot Shield. If you're able to install Hotspot Shield on the restricted computer, it will allow you to access most blocked sites. You can always put the Hotspot Shield setup file on a flash drive and then install it onto the computer from there.

Article in English: Many Internet service providers (ISPs) expressly forbid personal hosting unless you have a business plan, which often costs significantly more than a standard use plan. This shouldn't be an issue if your site only generates a few hits per month, but any kind of significant traffic will draw attention to your hosting.  If your ISP prohibits home-hosting, either upgrade your plan to one that allows hosting or switch to a different ISP before you continue. Failing to heed your ISP's policy for home-hosting can result in anything from getting your Internet turned off to having to pay fines. In order to host a website, you must have a computer on and connected to the Internet 24 hours per day, seven days per week. This is easier to accomplish with a secondary, older computer than it is with your primary computer. Restarting your computer to update will occasionally be necessary. During these updates, your website will be inaccessible. Make sure that your computer is up-to-date with the latest operating system, security features, and drivers. Make sure you update your Windows computer or update your Mac computer before continuing. If your website's source code isn't already in a file on your computer, copy it from your web service's settings into a text document on your computer and save it as a PHP file.  If the website's source code is stored on your computer, make sure you know where to find it. If you haven't yet programmed your website, you'll need to do so before continuing.

Article in English: Many Irish people wear Claddagh rings as a symbol of their Irish heritage, rather than as a way to display their romantic status. Claddagh rings may be worn on any finger and may be turned in either direction, whichever is most comfortable for the person wearing the ring. They don't have to be worn to indicate a romantic status, and can be worn on the left ring finger without a relationship or engagement or a marriage.  Some people wear Claddagh rings on necklace chains, rather than on their fingers. Claddagh rings may also be worn on bracelets, or kept in the pocket as a charm. Claddagh rings make meaningful gifts for friends and relatives, whether or not romance is involved in the equation. If you received a Claddagh ring as a gift and would prefer not to wear it to show your romantic status, it's just fine to wear it however you choose.

Article in English: Many Japanese rice brands suggest rinsing the rice out, but it is completely optional. Depending how many cups of rice you are making, add a half cup more of water. Make sure that they stand upright, so the bottom of them is down. This will balance out the yolks and be the ideal finish if you are making deviled eggs. It's important not to lift the lid on during the cooking process, or else all of the steam will escape. Push down the rice cooker button and allow the rice to completely cook.

Article in English: Many RPGs make use of a villain, also called an antagonist, to give players a clear enemy. However, the conflict of your RPG might be something else entirely, like a natural disaster or a disease outbreak. In either case, conflict will help to motivate your characters to action in your game. Conflict can either be active or passive. An example of active conflict could be something like a chancellor trying to overthrow a king, while a passive conflict might be something like a dam weakening over time and threatening a city. It can be difficult to imagine a setting without a point of reference. You don't have to be a brilliant artist, but a brief sketch of the dimensions of a setting will help players orient themselves. Many RPG creators will divide maps into two types: overworld and instance.  An overworld map is generally a map that depicts the world at large. This might only include a city and the outlying area, but could also include an entire world or continent. An instance map usually establishes the boundaries of a specific player event, like a battle or a room in which a puzzle must be solved. If you're not very artistic, try using simple shapes like squares, circles, and triangles to indicate objects and boundaries of a setting. In RPGs, lore usually refers to the background information of your game. This might include things like mythology, history, religion, and culture. These things can give your RPG a sense of depth and help you to know how non-player characters, like townspeople, will interact with player characters.  Lore can also be useful for developing the conflict in your RPG. For example, there might be an uprising creating chaos in a city in your game. You may want to write out notes for the lore in your RPG to help you keep the details straight while role-playing. For common knowledge lore that player characters should know, you might write up a separate sheet containing this information for players. The temptation to cheat can be great, especially if you're only 10 gold away from buying...

Article in English: Many adults lie to other adults for the same basic reasons your teen may be lying to you: to avoid getting into trouble, or to be able to keep doing things you know you're not supposed to. Lying to others while you punish your teen for lying sets a bad example and makes you look like a hypocrite. Instead of lying to cover your tracks, be open and honest about your actions and your motivations. Then show your teen that it worked out much better for you to be honest about the situation.  Avoid telling so-called "white lies." Don't lie to your boss if you're late to work. Apologize for being late and start leaving for work a little earlier so it doesn't happen again. Resist the urge to withhold information from your partner. Be honest and open, and show your teen how much better your relationship is because of that honesty. Be honest if your teen asks you hard questions. Rather than lying about your past bad behavior, tell the truth and admit it was a mistake. Many teens who habitually lie to their parents have a hard time seeing their own inherent value. A good way to prevent future lies is by spending as much time as possible with your teen and conveying that you see tremendous potential in him/her. Spending time together lets you know what's going on in your teen's life, and it lets your teen feel that you're approachable if he/she needs to talk. It also shows that you take an interest in your teen and want what's best for him or her.  You should ideally aim to spend some time with your teen every day. Open up an honest dialogue by talking about your day and asking your teen about his or her day. You can try spending time together by doing something your teen enjoys. You might play video games together, go for a walk in the woods, or some other activity that will make your teen happy. As you spend time with your teen, convey the importance of honesty and communication. You don't have to say this explicitly, but you should let your teen feel that trust between the two of you helps you to know that your teen is...

Article in English: Many air purifiers use non-washable HEPA filters. Turn off and unplug your appliance before accessing the filter. Check your product manual for specific instructions on how to access your appliance’s filter. At least one foam or activated charcoal filter usually accompanies a non-washable HEPA filter. These accompanying filters typically need to be rinsed for two to three minutes, or until water runs clear. Towel dry your foam or activated charcoal filters, then let them air dry completely for at least 24 hours. Use your vacuum cleaner’s hose with a nozzle or brush attachment to clean your non-washable HEPA filter. Run the attachment over the filter until you’ve removed all debris. Take care not to puncture the filter with the vacuum attachment. Reassemble your appliance after the washable filters have dried. You can wrap the HEPA filter tightly in plastic while you’re waiting for the other filters to dry or during any other extended period of non-use. Some air purifiers have an electronic filter clean reminder. If yours has one, reset it after cleaning your filter.

Article in English: Many airports have fitness centers and even yoga areas. If your airport has one, use it! You can get in some cardio, give your limbs a good stretch and get your blood flowing before boarding another cramped flight. If there’s no gym in your airport, you can always bring some workout clothes in your carry-on bag and go for a quick jog around the terminals.  If you plan on doing an intense workout, find out if the airport offers shower facilities. Airport Gyms is a useful website where you can search for fitness centers in or around airports in the U.S. and Canada. Visit the site at http://www.airportgyms.com/. Bring your laptop and take advantage of the free wireless internet access, if your airport offers it (most do). You can finally knock out all those emails you’ve been meaning to send, or put the finishing touches on an important presentation that’s coming up. If you’re a student, get started on that paper that’s due next week, or try to get through a few chapters of your assigned reading. Whether you’re traveling for business, pleasure or otherwise, there will be probably be tons of stuff you need to do once you finally arrive. Make a to-list while you’re waiting so you don’t miss a beat! Include errands and other necessary stuff on your list, but don’t forget to block out some time to see the sights and even just to rest. Check with one of your airline’s ticket agents at the layover airport to see if you can switch your flight. You might be able to get an earlier or later flight if there are seats available, at no extra cost. If your schedule is flexible and you really want to explore the area or city you’re in, consider giving up your seat and taking a later flight out. This won’t always be a realistic option, but if you have the opportunity, take it!

Article in English: Many animals who sleep with their eyes open experience a state in between wake and sleep. This method does not work for humans. However, there are other ways to achieve a sense of awareness and consciousness while sleeping: this is known as lucid dreaming. A lucid dream is when a dreamer becomes suddenly aware that he or she is dreaming. The dreamer can then gain control of the dream world and be fully conscious during sleep. " Scientists don't know why, but simply reading about the phenomenon of lucid dreaming can cause people to experience a lucid dream. Enhancing your awareness of the phenomenon, for some people, is sufficient to experience the phenomenon. Visit your local library to research the topic, or read about it online. Expose yourself to as many articles and stories as you can in order to "plant the seed" of lucid dreaming in your mind. Perhaps you will get lucky and experience a lucid dream on your own. The most important step to gaining control over your dreams is to get enough sleep each night. This will maximize the amount of time that you experience REM sleep, which is when most dreaming takes place. Maintain a dream journal and update it religiously. This will train your brain to recognize common themes and emotions of your own dreams. This will help your brain realize when you are dreaming in the middle of a dream state. Be sure to keep a journal close to your bed so that you can write your dreams down immediately upon waking. If you get distracted after a dream, you are more likely to forget what happened during your dream. Immediately before bed, tell yourself that you want to experience a lucid dream. Prepare your brain to be aware during the dream state. Focus on this desire intently each night. There are phone applications that are designed to help cue your brain to realize when you are dreaming. Download one of these apps and use it while you sleep. It will help monitor when you are dreaming and will play an audio cue to try to make you recognize your own dream state without fully waking up.

Article in English: Many animals, bugs, and birds share the ecosystem with elms.  For instance, the American elm attracts birds and mammals (mice, squirrels, and opossums) that feed on its buds.  Deer and rabbits will chew the bark and small branches of younger trees. If you see a host of animals and bugs hanging around a tree, it could be an elm.  Caterpillars might be found munching on the leaves. Woodpeckers, raccoons, squirrels, and chickadees are commonly found living in elms. Slippery elms also attract birds, who like to snack on the tree’s fruit and buds. The base of an elm is reinforced with a visible, shallow root system with a broad reach. The bark of the roots will have the same general texture and color as the bark on the rest of the tree.  While it might not be present in young elms, look for roots that are visible along the ground. Elm trees are commonly afflicted with Dutch elm disease.  As its name implies, the disease only affects elm trees, so if you see a tree with the symptoms of Dutch elm disease, you can safely conclude it is an elm.  Look for:   Dead leaves that have not fallen off the tree Yellowing or other discoloration in fall or spring Wilting leaves and young shoots present at the same time

Article in English: Many aquarium fish are egg bearers, including discus fish, bettas, and most gourami species. The females of these species lay hundreds of eggs, usually in prepared nests on the floor, wall, or water surface. If there is a male in the same tank, he may fertilize the eggs after they are laid or by mating with the female beforehand, depending on the species. The eggs will eventually hatch into live fish.  Look for your species name online to find out whether it lays eggs (oviparous species), or gives live birth (viviparous). The females of some fish species are able to store sperm for months before using it to fertilize eggs, so a new tank with females only can sometimes still reproduce. Some egg-laying fish create nesting areas to keep their eggs safe. These may look like small pits or gravel mounds, but they are not always visible. Some gouramis can create elaborate nests made from a mass of bubbles, usually created by the male along the water surface. Some females of this species bulge as eggs grow inside of them, but this is typically not a major change and doesn't last long. Once laid, the eggs often look like tiny balls of jelly. These are often scattered to the water, but in some species they end up in a mound on the nesting area, or stuck to the floor or side of the aquarium. Many egg-laying species also have mating rituals, including most gouramis. These are often energetic displays that can last up to a few hours, ending with the eggs being deposited. Caring for young fish, or fry, can be difficult, but even if caught unaware you'll have some time before the eggs hatch. Consult an aquarium store if you are interested in raising the fry yourself, since the process can vary by species. If you are caught unaware, refer to the section on raising young fish for basic advice, but do not assume the method will work perfectly for every fish species.
