Article in English: There are some cultures that do not value the use of wedding rings. Read up on other alternatives offered through various cultures. A simple online search using a term such as "Which cultures do not use wedding rings" will give you quite a few returns.  In some cases in India, a bride and groom will put the emphasis on having a big wedding rather than on having rings––then the whole town, and more, know that you are married. In these conditions, why do you need a ring? (That said, wealthier Indians do tend to make the ring part of the wedding commitment, as part of adopting Western wedding traditions.) The Amish receive a clasped hand blessing as part of their ceremony but do not wear an outward symbol of their union, especially not jewelry. Some communities do use different dresses or colors, or long beards, to symbolize married couples though. Would you be more comfortable with a chain around the neck symbolizing your love? Chains, just like rings, are also a symbol of attachment/commitment. You and your partner don't even need to wear the same "type" of jewelry, as long as the two pieces have something in common (text, style, little sign). For those who undertake a lot of manual or mechanical labor, wearing the ring around a necklace is often considered a preferred (and safer) option. What about getting a tattoo? Maybe you'll think: "I don't have tattoos, I'm not a tattoo person" but this reason makes it different. In general, you do not want tattoos because you think that your tastes will change. But don't your wish your marriage to last  forever? The tattoo doesn't have to be fancy. It can be your lover's name on some discreet part of your body: around the ring finger, on your side, or why not hidden under your hair, like a secret? Be creative. Nobody has to see it. It's just for you and your lover.  The infinite symbol is a popular tattoo for married people to use. Instead of a tattoo, consider a second piercing, either in the ear or somewhere else prominent. When people ask about it, you can proudly...

Article in English: There are some factors beyond your control that put you at greater risk of developing fibroids as well as some factors that you can control. Consider these factors as you begin to make adjustments to your lifestyle. Factors that may increase your risk of developing or experiencing a worsening of uterine fibroids include:  eating a lot of red meat and few vegetables drinking excessive amounts of alcohol having a mother or sister who also has fibroids starting your period at a young age having African-American decent Warmth can help to improve blood flow and help your muscles to relax. Use a heating pad or warm compress on your lower abdomen to reduce pain from uterine fibroids. Remove the heating pad about every ten minutes to allow your skin to cool down. Taking a warm bath may also help with pain relief. Lying down and resting can relieve pressure that may be contributing to the pain. When resting on your back, place a pillow beneath your knees to help take pressure away from your lower back area. Other techniques include deep breathing and relaxing your muscles. Some relaxation techniques work best after learning the basics from an instructor. These include yoga, biofeedback, and visualization. The foods you eat can make a difference in slowing the growth of fibroids. Much of the research on diet is observational but may prove helpful in some people. Two commonly recommended dietary changes that may help include increasing daily servings of dairy products, and decreasing daily intake of foods high in sugar and carbohydrates. Maintaining a healthy weight can also help to control the pain experienced from uterine fibroids. Treat the pain if it is manageable, watch for worsening, and wait. Fibroids will naturally begin to shrink after you go through menopause and your levels of estrogen decrease. Most women experience no pain from fibroids after menopause. Much of the time, if one fibroid is present, others are also growing. Talk to your doctor about symptoms, specific to you, that need to be closely monitored.

Article in English: There are some foods that may upset your stomach that seem perfectly harmless for other people.  Pay attention to what your stomach is telling you after you eat, and if you don’t feel well, try omitting those foods that trigger you.  Unless you see an allergist or have a specific list of foods to avoid from your physician, this is largely a trial-and-error effort and will take some time to figure out. Gas is a natural byproduct of any food that you don’t digest.  Also, some foods naturally cause gas when they are being digested.  In either case, limiting gas-causing foods may relax and calm your stomach.  You might be lactose intolerant, which is much different than being allergic to milk.  Lactose intolerance is pretty common and is the culprit behind many upset stomachs.  It often develops as people get older, and it is more prominent in certain cultures than others. Some vegetables, such as cauliflower, onions, cucumbers, corn, and broccoli can cause a gassy stomach. Other people find that starchy foods, like potatoes or pasta, upset their stomachs. Eating smaller portions is not only great for managing your weight but is quite helpful in preventing stomach upset.  It’s quite simple: the larger your portions, the more your stomach expands, the more it has to work to digest food, and the more gas you’ll produce from undigested foods.  Eat smaller portions five or six times per day to help prevent an uncomfortable stomach. Your stomach makes up a significant portion of the core of your body and is responsible for your abilities to sit upright and turn at the waist.  Excess weight makes this more challenging for your abdominal muscle groups and can lead to stomach unrest.  Also, most of your internal organs are housed in your core, and excess weight can cause your organs to get pushed or moved, causing stomach discomfort. Yoga has a host of benefits, including flexibility, increased blood flow, and a sense of emotional and cognitive calm.  Additionally, yoga can help relax your stomach, whether it is upset...

Article in English: There are some life events that make a person more likely to attempt suicide. If you know what to look for, you will have a better chance at preventing it from happening. Pay attention to the stressors going on in the person’s life and consider whether they might be placing the person at risk for suicide.  Make a mental note of whether the person has attempted suicide in the past. You may have to just ask, “Have you ever considered suicide?” Be aware if anyone the person knows has recently died, especially from suicide. The death of someone close to them can cause some people to consider suicide. This is especially true for teenagers.  Find out if there is history of suicide in their family. You may have to ask them directly or ask one of their family members. Pay attention if the person is or has been a victim of violence, bullying, humiliation, or abuse.  These situations can lead a person to view suicide as an option. Notice if the person has suffered a loss such as being laid off from work, a divorce or break-up, or even if their reputation has been severely damaged. Be alert if the person has a serious illness such as chronic pain or exhaustion with no end in sight. Sometimes people view suicide as a way to end their pain. Often a person considering suicide will give verbal clues about what they are planning. Knowing what phrases to listen for can help you recognize when the person is suicidal and help them before they go through with it.  Be alert for phrases that suggest the person feels they are a burden on people like, "Everyone is better off without me" or "They won't have to deal with me". Listen for signs that they feel no one cares about them or understands such as: "No one cares what happens to me"; "Nobody gets me"; or "You just don't understand!" Pay attention if the person indicates that they don’t see any point in living by saying things like, "I have nothing to live for", "I'm just so tired of life". Notice if they say something hopeless such as: "It's too late now. I can't go on"; "There...

Article in English: There are some medical studies linking decreased levels of potassium, calcium, and magnesium to cramping. Eating enough of these nutrients and others such as protein can help relieve pain and may help with water retention and moodiness.  Fruits including oranges and bananas provide potassium.  Eating almonds, brown rice, and avocados can help you get magnesium.  Try yogurt and cheese, as well as dark green vegetables like spinach for calcium.  Eat Vitamin B foods like meat or eggs to help with food cravings and prevent moodiness or fatigue.  Eating complex carbs — like green veggies, whole grains, beans, lentils, peas, and starchy veggies — can help. You can also try supplements like calcium, vitamin E, and magnesium to help relieve PMS symptoms. Avoid too much sodium, which can cause water retention that may increase your discomfort. Examples of foods high in sodium are: processed foods, soy sauce, canned vegetables, and deli meats. Many women retain fluid during their periods. Making sure you drink enough water can help minimize water retention and may also help reduce cramping and tension. Drinking enough throughout the day may help you avoid back spasms and tension.  Water is the best choice to flush extra sodium that causes water retention. Try sports drinks or juices if you want something with flavor. Drink nine to 13 8-oz glasses of liquid daily, depending on how active you are.  Red raspberry leaf tea may help relieve cramps. Limit or stay away from tobacco and caffeine during your period. Not only can these substances can promote cramps, but they may also make any negative feelings you might have worse.  Give up or limit your alcoholic beverage intake while you’re menstruating. Alcohol can dehydrate you, constrict blood vessels and cause cramping, and generally make you feel worse.  Stay away from tobacco products, which can also make cramping worse and may also make you feel worse. If you are not able, chew nicotine gum or “smoke” an electronic cigarette. Getting enough rest, especially sleep, can...

Article in English: There are some medicines used to lessen the symptoms of infection and remove facial warts. These treatments usually require several months for the infection to clear, and are often associated with intense inflammation and discomfort. These medications are:  Retinoid (Tretinoin) Cream. Daily topical application of this cream may trigger resolution. Retinoid cream disrupts the wart's skin cell growth. When applying Tretinoin cream to the facial warts, the following guidelines must be followed:  Apply once a day at bedtime. First, wash the wart with soap and water and wait at least 15 to minutes for it to dry. Then apply a pearl-sized portion to the facial wart. If applied on moist skin, it can cause peeling and irritation. Tretinoin cream can cause sensitivity to sunlight because it makes the skin soft and thin. Remember to wear sunscreen when going outside.   Cantharidin or other topical agents containing trichloroacetic acid. Cantharidin contains an extract from a blister beetle. When it is applied to the skin, a blister will form around the wart. The blister will then lift the wart off your skin and the dermatologist can remove the dead portion of the wart. Cover the affected area with a clean bandage afterwards. Follow all instructions given by your doctor when using this.   5-Fluorouracil. This cream will stop the replication of DNA and RNA, which should stop wart growth. Apply the cream twice a day for three to five weeks.  Protect the area from the sun, as this can worsen irritation. Keratolysis involves the abrasive removal of dead skin from the surface of the skin. This works through a combination of chemical treatment (usually, the use of salicylic acid), which softens and kills the cells of the virus, and manual exfoliation. When the wart becomes soft from the chemical treatment, and then a pumice stone or an emery board is used to remove it. Liquid nitrogen is used to freeze and destroy warts, which are then scraped off with a curette. Cryosurgery is a good way to treat stubborn warts that have...

Article in English: There are some natural soothing agents that you can apply directly to your skin. These will help combat the irritation and help heal the rash. These substances include:  Aloe vera gel, which has calming and cooling agents.  Grated or pureed cucumber, which have cooling capabilities and will help prevent drying of your skin.  Coconut oil, which contains omega-3 fatty acids that can promote healing, reduce inflammation, and help with infection. There are multiple kinds of anti-itch creams you can buy over the counter to help with your sun rash. These include hydrocortisone cream, calamine lotion, and other soothing agents.  If the itch is severe or won't stop, your doctor may prescribe you corticosteroids. Since calamine lotion is a mixture of zinc oxide and iron oxide, it may be extremely beneficial for itching. It does not have any healing agents like hydrocortisone, but it will reduce itching. Your sun rash may cause pain and discomfort. Good ones to take include ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol), and naproxen sodium (Aleve). Follow the manufacturer's instructions for dosage amounts and frequency. There is a small risk of these causing skin sensitivity, so if your rash gets worse, stop taking these medications and see your doctor.

Article in English: There are some pieces of debris that may be lodged in the skin that did not come out with rinsing, especially with scrapes. Once the bleeding has stopped, look at the wound for extra debris in the skin. If you see any debris, use tweezers to gently remove any excessive particles from the wound. If the debris will not come out, see your doctor to have it removed.  Do not dig the tweezers into the wound. You don't want to injure yourself further. If there is no debris, you can move on to the next step. Once the bleeding has stopped, you need to run warm water over your wound again to rinse away the blood. Next, pour an antiseptic wash over the wound such as alcohol, peroxide, or providone-Iodine solution. You can also soak gauze in the solution and rub it over the wound gently to clean it out. This may sting, so brace yourself for the possible pain. Pat dry the wound with sterile gauze or a clean towel. This process may disrupt the clot on your wound and it may ooze or begin bleeding again. This is normal and does not indicate a more serious wound since you were able to stop it at one point. Even if you think you have removed all of the dirt and debris, there is still a chance that your wound could become infected. Because of this, applying some antibiotic cream to the wound is always a good idea. This ointment will also keep your scrape moist so it won’t crack and get worse when you move around. A thin layer of ointment, or antibiotic powder, covering the area of the wound should be enough.  Neosporin, Polysporin and Bacitracin are the three of the most common products used. You can use hydrogen peroxide to initially clean the wound but it should not be used in the long run because it can do damage to the tissue in and around your wound. Once you have added ointment, you need to bandage your wound. Take gauze or large bandage and cover your wound. Take medical tape and cover each of the edges. This will help keep out debris, germs, and other particulates. If your scrape isn't too large, you may be able to use...

Article in English: There are some resorts in Mexico that serve tequila poppers (sometimes called Tijuana poppers), which are different in that they are poured and served directly in the participant’s mouth, and they often use beer instead of soda.  For Mexican tequila poppers, you will need a bottle of tequila (preferably with a measuring spout on it), as well as a bottle of beer, such as Corona, that’s been opened. In Mexico, the server will continually blow a whistle while serving this drink. This drink can get pretty messy, so it’s a good idea to take a few precautions. Have the participant tilt his or her head back, mouth open. To prevent excessive consumption, measure out either a quarter, half, or full ounce directly into the mouth of the participant. Tell the participant not to swallow. To get the same fizzy effect as the lemon-lime soda, cover the top of the beer bottle with your thumb or finger and shake the beer. Carefully direct the opening of the bottle into the participant’s mouth and slightly move your thumb to the side to allow a spray of beer into the mouth.  Don’t spray in too much or the participant could choke, and don’t spray it directly down the throat. Instead of pre-fizzing the beer, some resorts will pour the beer into the participant’s mouth, hold the mouth closed, and then shake the participant’s head to fizz up the beer. Cover it with the towel so the foam doesn’t get everywhere and tell the participant to swallow.

Article in English: There are some risks that are never worth it, like driving drunk or committing a crime. If there is substantial risk of injury or punishment and no true benefit, don't take the risk.  Risks that pose unnecessary harm to other people are usually not worth it either. It is not your place to risk the safety of other people. Risky sports like skydiving may be the exception to this rule. For some, this may be a reasonable risk because the adrenaline rush and genuine enjoyment are a huge reward. For others, this may seem like a reckless risk. If you want to make smart choices, it's very important to understand how much risk a given activity involves, how significant the risk is, and what the potential benefits are. Carefully compare the possible consequences with the possible benefits in order to determine if a risk is worth it for you.  Some risks may be worth it in certain situations, but not in others. For example, if you want to quit your job and move to a new city with no plan, the risks will be higher if the economy is bad and you have a lot of debt to pay off than they will if the economy is flourishing and you are debt-free. It helps to have as clear an understanding as possible of what could actually go wrong. If you can get some kind of objective data or talk to an expert about the potential outcome, do it. If not, take some time to think through the possible consequences carefully. Try assigning a number value to each risk and benefit. (The worse the risk or better the benefit, the higher the number.) This can help you compare the risks and benefits of a specific activity in a very logical way. For example, if you are contemplating a risky investment, assign a number to the possibility of losing your investment (maybe an 8) and one to the possibility of making a fortune (maybe a 10). Then compare these two to help you determine whether the risk is worth it. While taking risks is often a good thing, you should always make sure there is something in place to protect you from the worst case scenario. For...

Article in English: There are some treatment and preventative methods that can help you when you have or think you might be getting a sinus infection. When you first suspect a sinus infection or cold is coming on, start taking zinc as quickly as possible. Studies show that zinc taken within 24 hours of the beginning of cold symptoms greatly decrease the duration of the symptoms.  Studies show that a dose between 75 mg-150 mg daily will shorten the duration of a cold by 42%.  You can get zinc in a lozenge form over the counter at most drugstores. Try common brands such as Cold-EEZE. To use, dissolve the zinc lozenge in one cup of water and drink every one to three hours for your total daily dose. Ingesting a large amount of vitamin C naturally enhances your immune function. This can help fight the symptoms of your sinus infection. Multiple studies show that 2000mg of vitamin C daily provided great benefits in reducing not only duration but severity of the symptoms.  You need to get at least 1000 mg daily to help fight the symptoms. You can also ingest even more than 2000 mg because no side effects have been reported when more than the recommended daily amount is consumed.   You can get more vitamin C every day through citrus fruit and leafy green vegetables. You can also buy over the counter supplements in powder, tablet, and chewable form. When you start to feel your nostrils inflame, you can use a neti pot to help with the symptoms. A neti pot is a miniature teapot shaped device that cleanses your sinus passages by flooding warm water through one nostril and out the other. To use, fill the pot with warm water that is around 120 degrees. Tilt your head to the side to allow the water to pour into your right nostril and drain out the left.  It can be dangerous to use a neti pot if used incorrectly. If you breathe during a nasal douche, it can introduce bacteria into your nasal cavities and possibly lead to pneumonia. There have been some case reports of rare amoebic infections in areas with unclean water inhabited by this...

Article in English: There are some universal signals that are used frequently. This is a classic flirt used by women: a girl smiles at you and then lifts her eyebrows quickly while locking into eye contact. Don’t rely on someone to initiate flirting. This will not always happen candidly. Be on the lookout for eye contact and a smile. Don’t be afraid to make the initial flirt with someone. Never limit yourself to where you should try to attract someone. You never know when the magic spark will light up. There is still a chance even if you’re working late and on the subway at night.  Never shy away from an opportunity to attract a woman.  Flirting in an unusual place like a subway or waiting room shows confidence. You never know until you try it. Don’t come off as too strong. It is important to seize the moment, but do it in a way where the girl doesn’t feel uncomfortable. Employ active listening when talking to someone. This will give you more of an opportunity and show her you care. Listen to obtain information, to understand her, for enjoyment, and to learn.

Article in English: There are some very typical, shared experience dream signs that indicate you're dreaming rather than sitting wide awake. These dreams often tap into our unconscious fears, and almost all of us have had a version of these dreams at some point in our lives. Scientists have realized, however, that we do have a lot of control over our dreams, and can use techniques to guide ourselves away from dreams we’d rather not have.  Think of whatever you want to dream about before bed. Let an image come into your mind that you associate with whatever it is you want to dream about. Hold that image in your mind as you are falling asleep. The physical sensation dreams are very common and can feel as if you’re actually flying, falling, or running. These dreams also commonly jolt you out of your dream as you startle yourself out of sleeping. Some of the most common of these kinds of dreams are:   Flying unaided. Falling, but never quite reaching an end (although, a sudden jolt in a fall can be enough to awaken you properly). Having a monster, dangerous person, or strange creature run after you or attack you. Paralysis - something terrible this way comes but you just sit or stand there because you cannot move. Alternatively, you can move but you're moving way too slowly. A fuzziness; not being able to see clearly, often accompanied by an inability to completely control your thoughts and actions. Missing body parts, with lost teeth being very common in dreams. Time doing weird things. For example a "day" that feels like it only takes a few "minutes", or when it's meant to be nine in the morning but it's dark. Sometimes, in dreams, where we are makes no sense.  Do you remember how you got there? If you don't, and you don't have any mental problems, you're probably dreaming. Even if you know how you got to that particular place, you might be dreaming if you don't remember getting ready to travel there or if you don't remember waking up in the morning. Even if you're lost, can you remember how you ended up lost? Is it a hybrid of...

Article in English: There are strong arguments on either side — both for and against clipping. Those who caution against it say that birds were meant to fly and we should not interfere with a parrot’s natural inclinations. Clipping the parrot's wings deprives them of this basic freedom. Consider other options first. If you are planning to show your bird, it should never be clipped. Parrots respond very well to clicker training, and you can train your parrot to return to you when called. You can also use clicker training to modify unwanted behaviors, which can help your parrot stay happy and safe. If you are not willing to do the work to train a parrot, then you may want to reconsider if getting a bird is right for you. There are some dangers to letting your bird fly free in your home. They can potentially damage their feathers, knock things over, and consume things that they should not. Many household items can be dangerous to parrots, including toilets and other standing water, lightbulbs and stoves that get hot, ceiling fans, cords to blinds, and windows and mirrors. Ask yourself why you want a bird if you don't want it to fly or don't feel that your home is a safe environment. Consider that a different pet may be more appropriate. Parrots are quick and can take advantage of any open door or window to get out. Once outside, it may be difficult to get bird back if you have not trained them. With clipped wings, the chance of escape is reduced. And if your bird does get out, it’s much easier to get them back. Bird wings should not be clipped until the bird can fly. Clipping too early can stunt the regular growth of the feathers. If you’ve never done it before, it’s advisable to have your vet do it the first time. That way you can see how it works and then decide if you want to continue to do it at home.

Article in English: There are subtle difference between “black tie optional,” “black tie preferred,” and “black tie.”  Knowing the time of day and the time of year for the event, as well as what kind of event it is, can help you determine how to dress best.  Evening events are more formal than daytime events. Winter events are often more formal, and dark colors are more appropriate, than summer events. ”  If the invitation says that black tie attire is preferred, it means that you should wear the nicest clothing you have easy access to.  If you don’t have a tuxedo or a floor-length gown, a nice cocktail dress or a suit may be acceptable. If you choose not to wear black tie to an event that is deemed black tie preferred, you should do it with confidence and accept the fact that most people will be wearing black tie attire. ” Like preferred, optional suggests that the event is formal, but you have a bit more flexibility about what you choose to wear. At a black tie optional event, the crowd will most likely be split in half between black tie and a very formal style of dress. If you still can’t decide what to wear and you know other people who are attending the event, ask them what they will be wearing. This may give you a leg up on what exactly to wear, especially if you can ask the host of the event. ” This suggests that the event is formal, but that you are allowed to be a little more flexible about your clothing choices.  Black tie creative means that men can switch out their white tux shirts for a black shirts or wear a red tie to add flair to their outfit. Ladies can be a bit flashier in their choice of gown colors, and maybe even go as far as to wear a tiara or long gloves. ”  This means that you will not be allowed to enter the event unless you are dressed in appropriate black tie attire.  The steps below will direct you towards dressing appropriately and ensure that you will be allowed to enter the event.

Article in English: There are thousands of banner ads and pop-ups on the internet that are designed to get your attention and make you click. Due to the way most modern browsers work, there are very few ways for you to get infected with something online unless you click on it yourself. This means you should avoid clicking on banners for offers that are too good to be true. Make sure your browser is configured to always ask before running files and downloading automatically. If you have to confirm everything, you are much less likely to get infected. Some of the most nefarious pop-ups on the internet are designed to mimic the look of legitimate anti-virus software. These pop-ups attempt to trick the user into thinking their antivirus software has found an infection. When you click the pop-up, however, the adware is actually installed.  Instead of clicking the warning, close the pop-up window and open the antivirus program on your computer. You most likely will not see any warnings. If you are still worried, run a scan using your installed software. Don't try clicking the "X" to close the pop-up window, as this will usually lead to more pop-ups. Instead, use the Task Manager to get rid of it. Alternatively, you can install and use an adblocker to prevent ads appearing in the first place.

Article in English: There are thousands of free games out there, and this category goes way beyond app stores. Both major developers and independent studios have been exploring the free-to-play model. Keep searching, and you may find a favorite game that matches your interests without trying to nickel and dime you to death. Some of the most famous free games include the battle arena League of Legends, the collectible card game Hearthstone, the first-person shooter Team Fortress 2, and the Diablo-like Path of Exile. These technically fall into the free-to-play category, but there are so many of these they deserve a separate mention. If you are at all interested in online role-playing games, there's probably something out there you can spend hundreds of hours on for free. From Lord of the Rings Online to Star Wars: The Old Republic to the first twenty levels of World of Warcraft, you have many options available. Unlike free-to-play games, these don't even have an obnoxious message trying to convince you to purchase in-game perks. It's almost the default now for games to become free eventually, although you may have to wait a few years after the release date. Browse huge collections of these games at the following sites:   The GOG free games section occasionally includes more high-profile games than other sites.   Reddit free games and Reddit efreebies. EA's Origin game store client might be a little desperate for users. Visit their ongoing promotions and download the free Origin software. Check back regularly to see which games are up for grabs, as these rotate frequently:  The "On the House" promotion offers a full, free game with no strings attached. The game is typically a few years old, but that doesn't mean it's not fun. There are often several "Game Time" promotions running at once. These are also full games, but each one gives you a limited amount of time to play. This is great for trying out a game you're interested in, but not so much if you want to play through the whole thing. The most famous and generous promotions in...

Article in English: There are thousands of species of ants worldwide, but typically only a few are likely to be encountered in a given region of the world. Save yourself time by knowing which ants are possibilities in your county or province, instead of reading every description. Some tropical countries and islands have interactive guides here, but not all of these are in a usable state. Worldwide guides to ant species may require sifting through dozens or hundreds of species. If you can't find a local list, or if none of the ant species described below match your specimen's description, here are a couple good options:  Visit AntWeb.org. Select Regions in small text near the top of the page, then select your region from the drop-down menu. Select "Nearctic" for Canada, the U.S., and Baja California. Select "Neotropical" for the rest of Mexico and Latin America. Alternatively, enter your specimen's information into Discover Life's database. The species descriptions below provide additional information whenever it may be useful. Head color, antenna shape (thin or "clubbed"), and other information may come in handy. Start by navigating to the section for one-node or two-node ants, depending on your specimen. In each section, the most widespread invasive ant species are listed in detail first. Other relatively common pest ant species with more restricted territories are given briefer descriptions beneath them.

Article in English: There are thousands of styles of meditation and mixing it up and finding new methods can stimulate your imagination. Try different forms of meditation, like mindfulness, to find the style that fits best with your lifestyle and motivates you to meditate.  Focus on the here and now when you try mindfulness meditation. Meditate on your breath and how you feel emotionally and physically.  For example, think about each part of your body and how it feels. Does anything feel tense? Do any parts of your body feel relaxed? Don’t try to push away or suppress anything you are feeling. Simply acknowledge it and notice the details of the feeling. For example, you might think, “I feel impatient. It’s making my body a bit tense.” This form of meditation is usually used before or after performing yoga poses.  Some yogis meditate while holding a yoga pose. The physical movement involved before or after meditating just might give you the motivation you need.  After or before your yoga session, try meditating for a few minutes. Find a comfortable yoga pose and meditate while you hold the pose. For example, you may want to meditate while you are in child pose. Also called Zazen, Zen meditation has its base in Buddhism and focuses on concentration. In this practice you concentrate on your breathing and meditate on a specific question or idea. You may find that having something specific to meditate about will motivate you to meditate.  Start by sitting and concentrating on your breathing. Once you have learned to focus on your breathing, you can begin to concentrate on counting. Simply thinking about the numbers. Eventually, you can move to meditating on a particular koan, or question. Being around other people may motivate you to meditate. You may enjoy meditating with others more than practicing it alone. It can also be a source of motivation knowing that friends or classmates are going to be present.  Even if you prefer solitary meditation, you may be motivated by discussing meditation with a supportive friend. You can use this...

Article in English: There are three Xbox 360 models, the original, slim and E models. Certain models including older versions of the Xbox 360 do not allow HDMI output, whereas the newer ones, including Slim and E models provide HDMI output. All models accept composite (Red, White and Yellow) cables. This method does not work for Xbox One. You can output to two displays by either using a slim composite video cable with an HDMI cable or by using a cable that features both composite and component video that come with older models.  Use a slim composite video connector with an HDMI cable to output from your console.  Use a combined composite and component video cable if you have an older model that comes with these cables, the connector has a toggle switch located on the end that connects to the Xbox 360 console, set the switch to “TV.” Only one television will be able to output sound using this method. You cannot use separate composite and component video cables. Use a television or other device that accepts composite cables.If you want to output sound to this device, plug in the red and white sound cables to this display. If you are using an HDMI cable, plug the HDMI cable to a device that accepts HDMI input. If you are using the composite and component video cable set, plug the red, blue and green cables to a device that accepts component video.  The red and white sound cables are not needed for sound if you are using HDMI. If you want to output sound using the component cable method, use the red and white sound cables for either video input device. Set each display to the video input based on the type of cable used. Set your display to AV if using composite, set to component if component cables are used, and set to HDMI if the HDMI cable is used. You should immediately see video output on both televisions. If a display does not show a picture, ensure all cables are connected. If you still do not see a picture, this is due to the television not supporting the video signal from that cable. Try using a different television that...

Article in English: There are three basic skill levels of snowboarding: beginner, intermediate and expert. A pro might also be considered a fourth level in terms of experience. Many snowboards are made for specific experience levels and the description will usually tell you which level the board is made for.  Beginner snowboarders are those who have never snowboarded previously or are still moving slowly down a run. An intermediate snowboarder is one who is more solid on their feet, can ride toe and heel edges, might be starting to ride switch and might be beginning to ride a little in the park or advance their riding in other ways. An expert snowboarder will have strong confidence while boarding, can adapt to elements and conditions and can ride the steepest terrain while maintaining control. A pro is someone who has been snowboarding so much that they are more comfortable on a snowboard than they are walking on their two feet. Factor in your progress when purchasing a snowboard so that you do not progress past that experience level too quickly. Types of snowboarding styles include freestyle, freeride, all mountain, powder riding and backcountry. The style of riding has a major effect on the type of snowboard that should be purchased.  Freestyle riding includes tricks in the terrain park or on the mountain such as jumps, riding rails and boxes and the halfpipe. Freestyle boards will be a bit shorter with a soft flex. Freeride means snowboarding around the runs with long, deep carving, higher speeds and natural terrain. Freeriders will typically choose a positive camber board for more edge control and a board with a directional shape. All mountain riding is freestyle and freeride combined. Boards for all mountain riding should have a twin directional shape, a 5 flex and length according to which style of riding you do more often. Powder riding is for those snowboarders who hike in the backcountry to find big mountain lines. This type of riding is done only by experts or with the supervision of an expert. Boards for powder riding...

Article in English: There are three common sizes: half-inch pipe thread, which is a coarser thread used on single-handle sinks, ½ or 5/8ths compression, and 3/8ths compression, which is a different type of thread commonly used on end valves, and intended to provide leak-free seal over hard copper. If your sink comes with lines and they don't match to valves, you can get additional lines that will match. If you put two pipe threads together, splice them with teflon tape. Water supply lines should screw into place with the corresponding joints on the new faucet. The specific size of the connectors should be included in the instructions for the specific faucet that you're installing.  You want to get lines that will have the appropriate ends for valve end and faucet end. Lines also need to be long enough so you won't put stress on the joints. Better to have extra long lines and have them loop. No hard bends or kinks. Make them hand tight, and somewhere around a quarter to half turn with a wrench. Usually the "female" connection piece on both ends will always have rubber gaskets, so you don't need teflon tape. The pop-up is the device that allows you to open and close the sink drain, usually made of a simple metal rod with ball attached to it. Drop stopped into sink from top, slide short end of rod into the opening on the tailpiece, making sure that the opening for the ball is facing toward the lever for the pop-up. Install as per the instructions. Sometimes you need washers and sometimes you don't. Slide nut to trap the ball in the tailpiece. Tighten so there's no wiggle, but not so tight that it's difficult to raise and lower. Attach thumbscrew to pop-up lever rod while sliding the rod from the ball so they can attach and allow you to screw together. Finish with silicon around the top of the sink, anywhere that the basin of the sink meets the wall, filling any gaps with a thin bead of caulk. Let the caulk dry for about 24 hours before turning on the water and going back over your work to check for leaks. There's no way to know if...

Article in English: There are three extremely important nutrients for gardening: nitrogen (N) for leaf and stem growth, phosphorus (P) for roots, fruit, and seed, and potassium (K) for disease resistance and overall health. Young plants may need more phosphorus to focus on leaf growth, and plants typically need much less of these nutrients outside of the growing season. For best results, look up the specific plants you are growing to find out their needs. This is usually given as three "NPK" numbers, telling you the ratio or total amounts of these nutrients in that order. If you want a detailed report on the nutrients already in your soil, send soil samples to your local extension office or soil-testing laboratory. This is not necessary for most home gardens, unless your plants are suffering from slow growth or color changes. Plant and animal matter such as fish emulsion or fish hydrolysate provides the best type of fertilizer for long-term microbial growth, which keeps soil nutrient-rich and porous. Fertilizers synthesized in laboratories typically feed the plant without improving the soil, and in some cases may even have negative effects. Always protect the hands and face when working with soil additives, as these can contain some bacteria and other health threats. Instead of a manufactured fertilizer, you may be able to find cheaper, unrefined options from a garden supply store or farm. Manure can add nutrients as well as organic matter that will break down and improve the condition of the soil. Here are a few common options:  Manure should be left to decompose for at least a month before use, to avoid damaging plants. Ask if the farmer is using herbicides on their pasture land.  You want to avoid manure from that source, as the herbicide will be present in the manure. Chicken or turkey manure is cheap, but can cause runoff issues in large fields. Cow, sheep, goat, and rabbit manure are higher quality and have a less pungent smell. Add bone meal for phosphorus, or blood meal for nitrogen. . New compost typically takes four to...

Article in English: There are three main roadways on the game map. These are called lanes. During the game, you and your enemies will largely be positioned in these lanes, in varying numbers, where you will fight for control in order to reach and destroy each other’s towers. You and your teammates will need to figure out how you want to handle your lanes.  Center Lane - The Center Lane, which go diagonally across the screen from base to base, is usually played with one hero versus one hero. This is why it is often called the solo lane. Players in these lanes will commonly move to the outer lanes to create uneven numbers and gank (or gang kill) the enemy heroes.     Top Lane - The top lane is usually played 2v2.     Bottom Lane - The bottom lane is usually played 2v2.    Work together with your teammates to slowly chip away at the enemy. Remember, the goal is not to kill them but to instead destroy their towers. Be strategic and play your hero well. There is no “i” in team but there is an “i” in dick: support your teammates and together you can all succeed.  Creeps, the funny looking fellows that you can’t control, are also part of your team. Use them. Worship them. They are the key to your success. They will spawn every so often and come in waves down the lanes. There they will clash with enemy creeps and towers, protecting you from much damage. Stay behind the creep line of defense. Destroy the other team’s creeps to gain money, though. Those guys are jerks. The game is won when the enemy’s main structure, called their Ancient, is destroyed. This main tower is located on the opposite corner of the map from where you begin. Progress your way there by destroying the intervening towers that block your progress. The other side of this, of course, is that the enemy team will be trying to destroy your towers. Protect your towers. Mostly you’ll be dealing with enemy creeps, sometimes enemy heroes, and hopefully the enemy towers. Attack the enemy but never forget your focus of getting to their towers (and eventually their Ancient)....

Article in English: There are three main terms with which you should be familiar before you create your filing system:   File — An individual item, such as a picture or a document.  Folder — A storage container used to hold files or other folders.  Subfolder — A folder inside of a folder. Your computer already has a built-in file manager (File Explorer on Windows, Finder on Mac) that organizes your files into various folders, so your filing system should be for things like commonly-used files, items you want to keep separate from the rest of your computer's files, and temporary project resources. Attempting to move all of your computer's default folder contents into your filing system may cause your computer (or specific programs) to stop working correctly. The easiest place in which to create a filing system is the Desktop, as placing your filing system there will make accessing your files easier than if you place it inside of a different folder on your computer. If you'd rather place your filing system inside of a pre-installed folder (e.g., the Documents folder), keep in mind that you'll have to navigate to that folder to open the filing system every time you want to use it. On Windows, many programs give you an option of where you'd like to install them. Unless you're installing a portable program (e.g., a program that can run from anywhere on your computer or a flash drive), always use the program's default installation path during setup.  Failing to use the proper installation path can result in program errors down the line. Mac computers don't give you an option to determine a different installation path.

Article in English: There are three major kinds of wigs: the full lace, the partial or front lace, and the non-lace. There are also three main materials they can be made out of, which are human hair, animal hair, and synthetic hair. Each wig type has its pros and cons, so make sure you buy the wig that is best for you.  The full lace wig is made with a lace mesh cap and the hair sewn into it throughout. It gives you a natural looking hairline, is more frequently made with human or animal hair, and is easier to style because they can be parted anywhere. It also allows more comfort when you are wearing it because it breathes more. The downside is that these wigs can often much more expensive than other types of wigs. These can also get damaged easier because they are not made of more durable fabric. The front or partial lace wig is made with lace mesh at the front instead of all the way around. It gives you a natural looking hairline on your forehead, but it is made of more durable materials around the main part of your head. These wigs can be made of any of the materials and are cheaper than full lace wigs. The downside is that these wigs are not as natural looking as full lace and can be harder to style because of the way the wig is made. Non-lace wigs are made on materials such as nylon mesh. These wigs can be made with any type of hair material, are more durable, and are much less expensive than other wigs. The downside is that these wigs don't look as realistic as other wigs and don't blend into the hairline as easily as lace wigs. You need to fix your hair so it will not make bumps or uneven places once you have your wig on. Whether you have long or short hair, you need to ensure that all of your natural hair is pulled back from your hairline so it won't be visible under the wig.  If your hair is long, you can separate the hair into two pieces and twist them, crossing the two pieces behind your head. Attach them across the top and bottom with bobby pins. If you have long and thick hair, you can do small 1 inch twists curls...

Article in English: There are three shapes common to her design: her head, torso, and waist. She has a fairly oval face, with prominent cheeks, a rounded forehead, and a dainty, yet pointed, chin. The three shapes need to be in proportion to each other and all line up at the correct angles. When you're drawing Ariel, what is she doing? If she has fins, she's probably swimming! Include lines on her face to line up her eyes and nose, placement for her seashell bra, her elbow and shoulder joints, and fins. The most important being her unique hairstyle, of course! Remember: She's in water, so her hair doesn't need to be along her back and her fins are floating, too.  Ariel has wide, Disney princess eyes (they're all relatively similar). They're usually open and curious-looking. Her nose is dainty and small; her lips are generally in a bit of a smile. Her hair miraculously has no part and is incredibly voluminous. Her hands and arms are generally held strong but femininely, like a ballerina. She has definite poise (especially for such a youngster!). You want fine, definite lines that are determined and confident. If worst comes to worst, just resharpen your pencil. If you have anything to add or change, do it now! The outline is your last round of actual drawing. Did you remember the lines in her fins, top, and waist-frills? That's it for drawing! Are you feeling ambitious and going to tackle Flounder and Sebastian, too, or just keep it to Ariel? To keep it traditional, her seashell top should be purple, her tail should be medium green, and her fins light green. But this is your drawing -- maybe she should be sporting zebra stripes?

Article in English: There are three types of fountain pens on the market today: cartridge, converter, and piston. The different types refer to the different ink delivery methods, and the method will determine how you refill your pen when the ink runs out.  Cartridge pens are the most common today, and they are the easiest to refill. To write with this type of pen, you simply purchase pre-filled ink cartridges, so when one runs out, all you do is replace the cartridge. Converter cartridges are reusable cartridges that get inserted into a cartridge pen. These are great for people who don’t mind refilling the ink and don’t want to throw away a cartridge every time the ink runs out. Piston pens are similar to converter cartridges, but the pen comes with its own built-in refilling system, so you don’t have to replace the reusable cartridge with a separately purchased converter. Remove the cap from the nib, and, if necessary, the cap off the back of the pen that covers the end knob. Twist the knob (most likely in a counter-clockwise direction) to extend the piston toward the front of the pen. When that’s done:  Dip the entire nib into an ink jar, making sure to cover the hole on the back of the nib. Turn the piston knob in a clockwise direction to draw ink into the chamber. When the chamber is full, pull the pen out of the ink. Turn the piston in a counter-clockwise direction again and let a few drops of ink back into the bottle. This will help remove air bubbles. Clean the nib with a cloth to remove any excess ink. Converters work in one of two ways, either with a piston mechanism or an air-bladder mechanism (also called squeeze converters). To refill an air-bladder pen, dip the nib into the ink bottle and:   Slowly press the converter at the back of the pen, and wait for air bubbles to appear in the ink. Slowly release the converter and wait for the ink to be drawn into the chamber. Repeat until the chamber is full.

Article in English: There are times for hugging, and times for keeping your hands to yourself. First, understand why you are hugging this person: perhaps you are greeting a dear friend; perhaps you are comforting someone who's crying; perhaps you are trying to share your feelings for a crush or a partner. No matter the context, a good hug should feel natural. Wait for a break in the conversation, or a transition, or a poignant moment. Consider these scenarios:  A break in the conversation could be any moment when time seems to pause. You can take advantage of these moments, if you've been meaning to hug someone. You don't need a reason to hug someone, but your hug should be in context. It should feel natural to initiate a hug at this time. A transition could be anything that begins or ends an interaction. You might hug your friend when you meet her, or hug her when she leaves. Hug to mark that something is beginning or ending. A poignant moment could be any experience in which you and another person (or people) have shared powerful emotions. Hug a friend after he shares a deep and emotional story; hug your sister when her boyfriend or girlfriend breaks up with her. Use hugs to acknowledge that a moment was significant and bring it to a beautiful end. Create a safe and gentle space. Open your arms wide, and try to keep a warm smile on your face. Use your body language, your facial expression, and your general demeanor to invite the person into your arms. Make this person feel like he or she is the only person who matters right now. Your body language should funnel the person into your embrace. Step toward him or her to make the invitation more clear. Look your hugging partner in the eyes, and watch her face to make sure that she is open to being hugged. If the person steps forward to meet your embrace, then he or she has accepted the hug. It's time to enter hug mode.  Wait for a cue. If you aren't sure, wait until the person you want to hug extends his or her arms. This is a safe strategy – but you may also consider how much you...

Article in English: There are times when the otaku girl might want to enjoy her hobbies on her own or with friends who pursue them just as vigorously as she does. Let her do this. Wanting to be with her as she does what she enjoys is a good thing, but forcing yourself will only make both you and her more miserable.  When she's out enjoying the things she loves, take time to enjoy your own interests. Visit friends, have some alone time, or go to an event you know your otaku girlfriend would never enjoy. If you feel the need to be constantly connected to her, ask yourself why. You might be feeling neglected or jealous. Figure out what the issue is and talk it over with her before it gnaws away at the foundation of your relationship. When you're trying to impress the otaku girl, you might focus on activities that appeal strictly to her interests. Once the two of you enter into a more serious relationship, though, you'll need to find balance between the two of you. One of the best ways to do this is to make trades. In return for doing something she loves this time, the two of you will do something you love next time.  When you do spend time doing what she loves, try to be genuinely interested in it. If she wants you to watch a favorite movie, pay attention to it instead of staring at your phone. If she drags you along to a convention, try to find something about the convention that you can be interested in, as well. You can also let her instruct you on her hobbies. For instance, if she happens to love a certain game, let her teach you the best way to play it Some of the friends who share your otaku girlfriend's interests might be guys, but typically, you won't need to worry about her turning her romantic attentions toward them once the two of you are already in a relationship. Remember that the otaku girl is fiercely passionate about the things she loves. If she loves you, she's not likely to drop you so easily. When you show that you trust her, it may also make it easier for her to trust you. By demonstrating that you are dedicated...

Article in English: There are times when you should always care. When someone else is being hurt is probably the most important. It’s very reasonable to want to not care about people bullying you, but if you see people bullying someone else you should always care. If we stand up for each other then no one will ever have to get intentionally hurt like that, yourself included. You can’t kill people you don’t like, you can’t bully others, and you should always about how your words and actions hurt other people. If we want to live happily and peacefully in this world, we have to love and care for each other rather than driving hate with hate. If you don’t care that you’re hurting someone else, you need to think about how your actions are going to impact your life. Oftentimes, people will rely on you. You may not even known that  they rely on you. There will be, throughout your life, people that need you for different reasons. You should care about them and you should care about yourself enough to do what you need to do to help them. These can be friends that need your emotional support through hard times or family members who need your love to keep their lives bright. It might be a shelter where you volunteer or it might be your children who need you to survive. . It is also extremely important for you to care about your own life and your own well-being. At times it can be hard, especially if you have had bad things happen to you, to understand why you should care about yourself. But when you feel down, remember that there are so many people who love you (even if you don’t know it) and your future has so many wonderful things in store for you (even if you don’t think good things will ever happen to you again). Be strong, because you are so strong, and just wait.

Article in English: There are times when your cat will behave in a way that needs disciplining. Just as it's crucial to let your cat know he's doing something right, it's equally important to show him what not to do. It's important to be consistent, so your cat recognizes his actions as bad behavior every time. Use a special tone of voice when your cat acts badly. There's no need to shout or yell because this may scare your cat too much. Instead, establish a harsh tone that lets your cat know he has done you wrong. He'll recognize it every time he acts badly. For effect, add his name to your complaint, such as saying "Bad Spike!" in a particularly harsh, even tone. This will help your cat recognize that he has erred, the downside of this method however, is that your cat may associate his name with bad behaviour. There are two ways that you can remove your cat from a situation where he is misbehaving. You can isolate your kitty. If your cat is prone to eating your dinner, for example, you can exile him to your bedroom during dinner time. Though his meowing by the door may break your heart, it'll teach him not to repeat his mistakes.  You can also remove him from the room after grabbing scruff of his neck. If your cat is being feisty with you and biting or scratching, you can grab him by the scruff of the neck and say “no.” If he keeps being bad, pick him up and take him to a different room, still saying no. Never pick a cat up by the scruff. It may hurt your cat and he may be able to hurt you by scratching you. Be aware that cat bites can quickly turn into a dangerous infection. To get your cat to stop doing a particular action, use a well-timed squirt of water from a water bottle to deter unwanted behaviors. This can include behaviors like jumping on counters or biting plant leaves. This should be done stealthily so the cat does not know that the squirt came from you. Try squirting the cat when he isn't looking at you or his back is turned from you. Otherwise, the cat will associate you with the water and be wary or fearful of...

Article in English: There are tons of different areas or niches for mediation work. There is no one single way to become a generalized mediator. What you learn, where you look, who you network with are all going to be dependent on what type of mediating you decide to do.  For example, if you wanted to go into family mediation (dealing with children, with divorce, domestic violence, and so on) you would need to be certified in behavioral or social sciences as well as in child development. Mediating workplace disputes would require knowledge specific to the workplace and to the laws and practices therein. It's even better if you have experience dealing with matters particular to that specific workplace, or type of workplace (for example, dealing specifically with factory issues, or mining litigation). Other types of mediation niches include: environmental, art, education, malpractice, criminal justice, landlord/tenant, gay/lesbian, and so on. The best way to get a feel for what is required of a mediator is to talk to someone who is or has done it. It's especially good to find someone in your specific area. While talking to someone who mediates art disputes could be informative, it won't have the same information needed if you're looking to go into workplace disputes.  Go to conferences. There are tons of conferences devoted to mediation all around the world. Check and see if there are any in your area (for the U.S., for example, Chicago, New York, and various parts of California hold large mediation conferences yearly).  Get a feel for how the system works. When you do meet with someone who is a mediator, you'll want to find out how the system works so you can be as effective as you possibly can. This includes finding out what the work environment is like, what their advice is for getting established, and who decides which mediators are established. Get a feel for what you need to know. Ask them about the types of laws, and rules you'll need to know, and education background that you'll need to have. Depending on the niche you...

Article in English: There are tons of different websites that allow you to pick out decorations to print for your husband’s get-together. You can print banners, party favor bags, or birthday cards — if it’s made of paper, there’s sure to be a template for it. If you already have cake mix in your pantry or cabinet, great! But a birthday doesn’t have to be celebrated with a typical cake. Check your refrigerator or pantry for ingredients to make other sweets, such as cookies, brownies, or chocolates. You can ice these desserts just like you would a cake, making them equally as festive. If you don’t have any sweets in the house, create a celebratory dish using fruit or veggies cut up and displayed festively. Invite your husband’s friends to a park if the weather is nice, or to an indoor location if it’s chilly. Tell them each to bring a dish to share with everyone, and you can create a dish from ingredients you already have at home. This way, there’s plenty of food to go around. Plan a party where you play games your husband played as a kid. You can set out your husband’s favorite games and have your guests bring their favorite games as well. If the weather is nice, tell your guests to bring outdoor games as well as indoor games. Create a movie theater experience by inviting your husband’s friends over for a movie, or just make it a family event. Dim the lights and pop some popcorn if you have any. If there’s a movie your husband wants to watch that you don’t already own, try checking with your local library.

Article in English: There are tons of makeup brands, and each brand has tons of different concealers. If you're looking for long-lasting concealer, look for that wording on the packaging. If you need help, look online for long-lasting concealers or ask a professional in a beauty store. Stick concealers come in swivel-up tubes – similar to lipstick. Stick concealers are best used to provide coverage for dark circles under your eyes. They are usually extremely thick concealers, so you'll only need a little bit. Although they are usually inexpensive and easy to apply, stick concealers are typically too thick and heavy to cover up breakouts. Stick concealers may clog your pores. They usually aren't a good choice if you have oily skin. This type of concealer usually comes in a squeeze tube, or a tube with a wand applicator. Many concealers on the market will come in a liquid formula, even if they dry matte. If you have acne, look for a liquid concealer that's formulated to fight acne. Cream concealers usually come in small jars or squeeze tubes and provide medium to full coverage for dark under-eye circles. Cream concealers can clog pores, so you shouldn't use them if you're prone to acne. These concealers usually come in compact cases. They are applied like a cream, but dry with a matte-powder finish. This type of concealer is good for those with oily skin, but not for those with acne or dry skin. To cover dark circles under your eyes or dark spots on your face, choose a concealer that is 1 shade lighter than your natural skin tone. If you want to cover acne, you should use a concealer that matches your natural skin tone or is slightly lighter. If you are covering your dark under-eye circles and breakouts, you should consider using 2 different types of concealer. Keep in mind that oily skin can oxidize the concealer, which can make it appear darker. If your skin is very oily, you may want to try a lighter shade of concealer.

Article in English: There are two changes to look for here. The more obvious one is that if your man is seeing someone else, he may not be excited about sex anymore. If your sex life has been dwindling for a while, then not having much sex doesn’t mean your man is cheating, but if he used to be excited about getting into bed with you and isn’t anymore, it may be a sign that he’s getting it elsewhere.  Another change you may notice is that suddenly your man has an insatiable sexual appetite. This may mean that his sex drive has become more intense because he’s sleeping with another lady. See what he’s like in bed. Is he suddenly much more adventurous than before? Has he always stuck to the same routine and is he now trying to spice things up every time you get into bed? He may be getting his moves from another woman. You should also see if he’s suddenly shy with his body around you and doesn’t want you to see him with his shirt off. If he only wants to have sex in the dark, then it may be because he does not feel right about sharing his body with two women. He may be much nicer to you because he feels guilty for being unfaithful. If he’s been distant or uncommunicative, or if he just isn’t a very demonstrative person, but he’s suddenly being very kind and sweet, and always telling you nice things, then it may be because he’s trying to compensate for seeing someone on the side.  But then again, he could just be being nicer because you are going through a rough patch and he is trying to make it up to you. If he suddenly brings you flowers, chocolate, and sweet cards, he could just be trying to be bringing back that loving feeling. Alternatively, he may be compensating for cheating. If your husband is not normally too handy around the house, but now he’s doing the dishes, doing the grocery shopping, or even doing the cooking, then something may be up. He’s certainly trying to compensate for something, and it may be cheating. But again, maybe he’s just trying to be nice suddenly, or wants something else from you as a result. Still,...

Article in English: There are two common styles of shower doors: sliding doors and pivoting doors. Although they work differently, the installation process is nearly identical for both, so your decision should be based on personal preference.  It is highly recommended that you choose a shower door with a frame. Some shower doors are frameless for a more elegant look, but are much more complicated to install. Some people prefer to use a sliding door for wide openings and a swinging door for small openings, since swinging doors tend to be a little narrower and can accommodate smaller spaces. Using your tape measure, measure horizontally and vertically between the surfaces where the door hardware will be mounted, across the tub or the opening for the shower, and up the wall. Record these numbers to take to the store and shop around for a kit that's big enough to fill the space you need to fill. For the most part, the metal tracks of shower doors will be slightly longer than the space you need to fill. They're made this way, to allow the same kit to be used for multiple projects. By cutting the tracks to size, you should be able to make most commercial kits work fine for the job. Take the measurements with you to your home center and ask for assistance in selecting the correct door kit. These should come with the glass door itself, the track pieces, rollers, and wall screws necessary for mounting the door on the wall. The other necessary tools and equipment are discussed in the next step. Shower door kits will come with a set of metal tracks that seat the shower door, so most of the assembly process involves installing the metal frame. This will be secured by a metal threshold that fits onto the front lip of the tub, two side columns that will be secured into the tile walls, and a single cross-member to connect the columns on top. Most shower kits should be universal, but hold the pieces up to the shower before you start installing them to make sure they fit. If the pieces are too long, you might need to trim them to size with a...

Article in English: There are two different types of aspirin poisoning. The first is acute aspirin poisoning, sometimes called rapid aspirin poisoning, that occurs when you get too much of the acetylsalicylic acid at one time. This requires a very large dose of aspirin at one time, which means that this type of aspirin overdose is rarely accidental.  For example, a 150 pound person would have to take more than 30 tablets of 325 mg aspirin to even develop a mild case of acute aspirin poisoning.  This type most commonly happens through intentional overdose (suicide attempt) or accidental overdose (either children or adult). The other type of aspirin poisoning is chronic aspirin poisoning. This happens gradually when you unintentionally take a larger than recommended dose aspirin over a period of days. This can happen accidentally for people of all ages if they are given too much.  Adults may also easily develop this type of poisoning over the course of several weeks because they take too much aspirin each day.  This commonly happens by either taking too much aspirin as a preventative measure against heart attack or a result of medication interactions causing the aspirin to metabolize differently. One way that you may develop aspirin poisoning is to not know that a product contains aspirin. Wintergreen oil, which contains aspirin, is used in skin treatments and is highly toxic if even a small amount is swallowed. There are also many over the counter medications that have aspirins in them. These include:  Alka Seltzer Bayer Excedrin Percodan Anacin Bufferin Ecotrin Fiorinal St. Joseph's  Pepto-Bismol  Kaopectate Treatment will depend on how long ago you consumed the aspirin, how much you consumed, and if your poisoning is acute or chronic. Treatment may include activated charcoal (this works best if it is taken within four hours of the ingestion of aspirin), stomach pumping, whole bowel irrigation, sodium bicarbonate, hemodialysis, and/or urinary alkalinization. It may also be necessary to treat secondary symptoms of aspirin...

Article in English: There are two general methods of propagating zucchini - either by planting seeds, or by purchasing a small pre-existing zucchini plant and transplanting it to your garden. If you choose to grow your zucchini from seeds, you’ll have to start your seeds 4-6 weeks prior to the planting time outdoors for your environment/location. Grabbing a pre-potted plant is always easier and less time-consuming, but may not be as fulfilling as starting your zucchini from seeds.  There are a few kinds of zucchini, but the squash are all generally the same. You might see zucchini as classified as ‘open habit’ or ‘dense habit’, which refers to the way the leaves grow on the bush (sprawling/vine-y or bush-like). Most bush varieties of zucchini are considered summer squash, while vine varieties are considered winter squash. Zucchini will vary naturally between a yellow-ish hue and a green so dark it is nearly black. Some have very mild stripes/spots, this is normal and should not be concerning. Zucchini is typically considered a  summer squash, because it thrives and produces the best fruit in summer. Some varieties are considered winter squashes, but this has to do with the time of fruiting, rather than the time of planting. Zucchini are sun loving and won’t do well in cold soil. Therefore, plant your zucchini when the temperature of the soil outdoors is at least 55 °F (13 °C). This is normally after the first or second week of spring, after all chance of frost have passed. If you’re not sure when to plant, call your local agricultural extension for detailed information on planting times for zucchini in your area. Zucchini will thrive in an area that gets full sunlight with plenty of room to spread out. Find a location in your garden that will supply the zucchini with at least 6-10 hours of sunlight per day, and that lacks too much shade. Be sure to select a plot that has well draining soil; zucchini like moist soil, but not soggy soil.  If necessary, improve drainage by planting the zucchini on soil mounds, or through larger...

Article in English: There are two general types of begonias: those grown from seeds, and those grown from tubers/bulbs. The seed-started begonias tend to be a bit smaller and difficult to grow, while bulb begonias are sturdier and larger plants. Both varieties come in many color options including shades of pink, white, purple, yellow, and red. Bulb and seed begonias are annuals, although the bulbs can be saved and replanted in later years. Growing begonias from seeds or bulbs is quite difficult, so it is recommended that you head to your local nursery to pick up a small potted begonia to transplant.  In rare opportunities, you may find a type of perennial begonia, but these aren’t common. You can choose to start begonias from cuttings as well. Begonias are one of many common flowers that can be grown successfully both indoors and outdoors. They like light or dappled (rather than full) shade, making them the perfect addition to your houseplant collection. If you plant your begonias in a pot, choose a location in your house on an eastern, western, or southern facing window. They can also be placed on a shaded porch, which gets plenty of ambient sunlight. If you’re planting them in garden, place them in a shady patch under other larger plants or on the northern side of your garden.  Begonias can handle partial sun, but avoid placing them in direct sunlight. Also, red-leaved begonias handle heat better than green-leaved begonias. If the shade is too dense, your begonias won’t grow properly. Choose an area with indirect sunlight and partial shade. If you don’t have any indoor window space for potted begonias, you’ll need to use a fluorescent lamp in order to provide them with a bit of light. Rather, don’t prepare soil at all, as begonias grow better in soil-free garden mix than then do in typical ‘dirt’. Prepare a mixture of ⅔ peat moss and ⅓ soil-free potting mixture (available at gardening supply stores and nurseries). Begonias like acidic, well-draining environments which the peat moss mixture easily provide. If you must use soil...

Article in English: There are two kinds of PVC pipe cutters: scissor style and ratcheting style. Scissor style pipe cutters are ideal for 1/2” to 1” PVC pipe, but are sometimes too difficult to use even for pipe that big. It's recommended instead that you use a ratcheting plastic pipe cutter, ideal for larger sized pipes and also effective for smaller. It's much safer and more reliable. The arm strength necessary to use scissor-style cutters is sometimes a little extreme, and it would be easier to just use a saw of some kind. Investing in a ratchet style cutter will make your job a whole lot easier.

Article in English: There are two kinds of extensions:  human hair and synthetic hair.  Human hair is the most popular type for extensions; it's easy to look after (treat it the way you would your own hair) and essentially undetectable when properly put in place. Human hair extensions can be washed and styled like your natural hair. You can use straightening irons and curling irons or tongs on human hair and even dye it if you'd like.  Human hair extensions need to be treated delicately. Human hair is more expensive than synthetic hair and cost can run in the hundreds of dollars.  Cost does not always indicate quality; however, so be sure to look and feel carefully. Virgin hair extensions contain hair that has not been treated with chemicals or dye. They have the cuticle intact. They appear very natural. They are very expensive, however. The ethnicity of the donor can affect the texture, volume, curl, and ability the style. For example, European hair tends to be thinner, but you can find virgin hair in natural red or blonde tones.  Indian hair is much thicker, and it is great if you want a silky straight style. If you're looking to add thickness, synthetic is a great way to go because it creates more volume. Synthetic hair may come already styled.  Synthetic hair is also cheaper than natural human hair. That said, most synthetic hair cannot be washed, colored, or permed. You cannot straighten or curl synthetic hair with most hot tools without ruining the hair. Unless you intentionally want extensions in a fun color such as pink, blue or purple, choose a color that most closely matches your own hair color.  If you can't decide between two shades, go with the lighter one. It can be difficult to find an exact match to your color, so if you're buying human hair, think about bringing it to your stylist to have it dyed to match your own hair color. The amount of hair you'll need depends on the thickness of your own hair and how much length and/or fullness you want to add.  If adding fullness only and your own hair is similar to the...
