Article in English: To get many of the right measurements, you should move the refrigerator to allow access to the space. When doing so, be sure to remove everything in the refrigerator and have at least one strong person around to assist you.  Do not leave any shelves in the refrigerator that can be jostled during the moving process. Either take the shelves out and move them separately or use tape to secure them. Be sure that the doors don't open up while you move the refrigerator. Take a strap and tie it around the doors or wrap tape around them. Don't ever lay a refrigerator on its side. It might be tempting to measure the size of your current refrigerator. But it is possible that the refrigerator is not the optimal size for the space. Begin by measuring the open space where you will put the refrigerator. Place one end against the wall. Extend the tape to reach to the opposite end of the open space. Mark the measurement on the tape with a pencil. Write down the measurement on a separate sheet of paper. Not only is it possible that you misread the tape measure, it is also possible that your house has settled. In the process, some of the surfaces might become uneven. Repeat the measurement at a different point in the open space. If there is a discrepancy, use the smaller measurement. It is better to have too much space, not enough. You will want at least an inch of additional space on both ends of the refrigerator so that you have space to clean dust off the sides of it. However, you will also want at least two inches on any side that has a door hinge, so that have space to fully open and close the refrigerator.

Article in English: To get noticed, you’ll need to stand out from the masses. Therefore, you need to use your social media profiles to send a unique message about who you are. Ask yourself questions such as:  What kinds of posts align with the image I’m trying to portray?  What kinds of things would my role models post? What social media accounts do I need to have to portray myself well? Before tweeting, posting on Facebook, or putting a picture on Instagram, ask yourself if your message helps reinforce your personal image. For example, if you portray yourself as an easy-going indie music expert, you should avoid posting long anti-establishment rants on your social media accounts. If you need inspiration, look at the social media profiles of your favorite celebrities or role models. Draw attention to yourself online by popping up on your friend’s newsfeeds. This will help you stay relevant in their lives and keep people talking. However, don’t spam someone’s page just because you want attention. Only post when you have something interesting to say or to remind them of a recent shared experience. If someone else mentions you on their social media page, respond quickly and positively.

Article in English: To get out of a bad relationship, the first step is to recognize that you’re in one. It’s easy to ignore the signs and keep living your daily life in a failing relationship, but no one should suffer like that. Everyone deserves to be happy.  Write down the warning signs you feel are happening in your relationship. Review the list to get a clear picture of what is truly happening. Talk to a close friend or family member about your concerns to hear someone else’s view. Know that you have the power to make a change and to get out of the relationship. Ask a trusted friend or family member if you can spend some time with them after you cut ties in the relationship. Having someone close to you provide support will help you feel better about your decision. If your relationship has had a history of abuse, it is important to let someone know your plans to help provide you with safety following the break up. You should also develop a safety plan for when you leave the relationship. This should include getting support from loved ones and domestic violence professionals, anticipating a change of heart and resisting the urge to stay, and having your things ready to go. To be able to succeed at ending a bad relationship, you need to have a plan in place. Creating a plan of action can help you hold yourself accountable to follow through. The most successful plan is one with specific implementation intentions, or if/then statements.  ”If I start to miss my ex, then I will call a friend to go hang out.” ”If I begin to regret my decision, then I will write out a list of the reasons I left.” ”If I become depressed over the break-up, then I will seek out help.”

Article in English: To get rid of hormonal acne, you will need to wash your face twice per day, such as in the morning and the evening. You should also wash your face after any periods of heavy sweating. For example, if you go for a run or if you have been doing yard work, then you will want to wash your face again. ” Non-comedogenic means that the product will not promote the formation of acne.  To make sure that you are getting a non-comedogenic cleanser, you will need to read the label. Gentle cleansing is the best way to clear up acne, so your fingertips are the best tool to wash your face. Don’t use a washcloth or a sponge as this can irritate the skin and cause even more problems.  Work the cleanser into your skin using gentle circular motions. Then, use lukewarm water to rinse away the cleanser when you are done. Do not scrub your face! Scrubbing may cause irritation and, in some rare cases, scarring. Use a clean cotton towel to dry your skin, but do not rub your face with the towel. Just gently pat your face with the towel until it is dry. Rubbing your face with a towel may cause irritation and redness. Moisturizing helps prevent damage to your skin and helps keep it soft and flexible. You can check the labels of store-brand moisturizers to make sure that they are non-comedogenic.  The term “non-comedogenic” indicates that it will not clog your pores. You can use some natural oils as moisturizers as well if your skin is dry and not oily.  Some good choices include:  Hemp seed oil Shea butter Sunflower oil Castor oil Calendula oil Argan oil

Article in English: To get rid or reduce belly fat you'll need to reduce your weight. To help keep track of your weight loss, weigh yourself regularly.  It's best to weigh yourself about one to two times a week. In addition, try to weigh yourself on the same day of the week, at the same time and wearing the same clothes.  Keep track of your weight in a journal. Seeing your progress can be motivating to help you stay on track. It can also show you any trends where you're gaining weight as well. In addition to weight loss, one of the best ways to measure your progress of losing belly fat to is track your waist circumference. This is the measurement around the smallest part of your waist. As you decrease belly fat, your waist circumference will decrease.  Use a tape measurer to measure the circumference of your waist. Do this by finding the top of your hip bone and your lowest rib and wrapping the tape around your belly between these two points. Continue taking measurements as you diet to track your progress.  A high waist circumference or a measurement over 37 inches (94 cm) indicates you have a large quantity of belly fat and are at risk for chronic diseases.  Remember that muscle weighs more than fat, so if you are trying to lose weight while building muscle, the scale can be misleading. Your best bet is track your progress by measuring your waistline and weight together. Dieting can be hard, especially when you find yourself constantly thinking about food or eating out of boredom. The best way to curb your appetite is to stay busy and indulge in activities that you enjoy.  Making a list of other activities to engage in can help decrease excess snacking or boredom eating. Have this list handy when the desire to eat strikes. Ideas to try include: taking a walk, reading a book, cleaning out a junk drawer, talking to a friend or family member on the phone or doing household chores.

Article in English: To get some space for yourself, you may have to set up some clear boundaries first. By setting clear boundaries, you may upset your friend, but you will be respecting yourself in the process. To set boundaries, you will first need to identify your personal space needs.  Think about how much time you need to yourself to be happy. How often does your friend interfere with this alone time? Think about how you would like your friend’s behavior to change. What types of things would you like her to stop doing or to at least do less? Texting? Calling? Dropping by unannounced? Clearly setting boundaries might be necessary to let your friend know what you are comfortable with and what is not acceptable.  This can help both of you express your feelings about the relationship and learn if it can continue.  Be honest, kind, and understanding when setting your boundaries.  If your friend invites herself along to events that you had already planned, then you might try saying “I love doing things with you, but I already made my plans for this night.  Let's meet up another time.” If your friend calls or texts you late at night or at other inconvenient times, then you will need to explain to your friend what you would like her to do instead.  For example, you might say something like, “I love our conversations, but it is hard for me to give you my full attention when I am at work. Can you call me a little after I finish work instead, like at 5:30?” If your friend gets upset or bombards you with more texts if you don’t respond right away, then you might say, “I enjoy getting a text from you but I can’t always respond right away. Can you try not to send me more than one text when you are waiting for a response?” To get your friend to respect your privacy when you are at home or out doing something without her, you might say, “I look forward to seeing you, but it is not always convenient for you to drop by unannounced. Can you just send me a text or call me before you come over to see if I am free?” Having this conversation with...

Article in English: To get started on your first quilt, you'll need to have everything ready and easily accessible. Get all your tools, clear an area and let's get started. You'll need:  Rotary cutter Scissors Ruler Thread (multiple kinds) Cutting mat Seam ripper Pins Different kinds of fabric wear differently over time -- so it's best not to blend. Sticking to cottons will probably be your best bet. What's more, think about color and scale -- not thinking it out may result in a quilt that seems flat and off-kilter.  Stay in the same color family, but don't use the exact same shades -- your quilt will seem monochrome and dull. Think about lights and brights, bolds and darks, and avoid ones that are a bit matchy-matchy. Don't pick fabrics that are all small or large prints. A good variety of both will create a dynamic, vivid piece. You may want to pick one fabric and base the rest around that specific pattern. Consider having a "zinger" fabric. It's one that is significantly brighter than the rest and, as a result, makes the entire quilt pop.  You'll also need fabric for the back, the border, binding, and the batting. If you stick to high-quality 100% cotton quilting fabrics that come from the independent shops or the higher-end selection at JoAnn, Hancock, etc., you should not have a problem with colors bleeding, etc. If the fabric is older or lower-quality, prewash before you start cutting. A beginner must have a quilting kit to make learning easier. Quilting kits are packaged sets of materials to make a piece of work.  They ordinarily include a pattern, pre-cut fabrics and instruction.  However, they do not include thread, quilt backing and batting. Be sure the kit is for the appropriate skill level. Most kits are marked with level skills.  Some are designed to fit the needs of unskilled beginners, usually for a wall hanging to start with before undertaking a full-size quilt. An alternative to a quilt kit is to buy jelly roll only which is a rolled up collection of coordinating fabric strips.  One roll can make a small quilt...

Article in English: To get started, you should lay out all the aromatic ingredients you will be using to flavor the salad. This includes the dried shrimp, garlic, peanuts, yardlong beans (French green beans can be used instead) and chili peppers. Som tam is traditionally made by grinding or “bruising” the dry ingredients in a mortar and pestle before incorporating them into the fresh fruits and vegetables that make up the salad. Look for less common ingredients like dried shrimp and Thai fish sauce at your local Asian supermarket. Rather than chopping or pureeing the dry ingredients, they should be crushed to get the proper flavor and consistency. The best way to do this is with a mortar and pestle. If you don’t own or have access to one, you can simply place the items in a large mixing bowl and mash them with the bottom of a broad spoon.  Because they’re so hard, the peanuts are the one exception and may need to be chopped if you’re not using a mortar and pestle. Authentic som tam is often made entirely in the same mortar. Take the dry ingredients and grind them with the pestle or spoon until they are soft but intact. The purpose of this process is not to completely break down the ingredients but to unlock their pungent flavors while reducing them to an edible size and texture. For best results, crush the shrimp, garlic, beans, peanuts and chilies individually.  Try not to crush the dry components until they’re too fine. A coarse, pulpy texture is what you’re after. If you want to save time, or you’d prefer a more even consistency, you can pulse the dry ingredients a few times in a food processor until they’re the right size. Once they’ve been lightly ground, set the dry ingredients aside in a separate bowl. It’s best to keep them separated from the papaya and other vegetables until it’s time to toss them together. This will ensure that the finished salad is fresh and crisp and retain the distinct notes of each of its ingredients. The flavors of the aromatics will begin to mingle as they rest.

Article in English: To get started, you should master the three basic sounds of beatboxing: the classic kick drum {b}, the hi-hat {t}, and the classic snare drum {p} or {pf}. Practice combining the sounds into an 8-beat rhythm like this: { b t pf t / b t pf t } or { b t pf t / b b pf t }. Make sure to get the timing right. Start off slowly and build up speed later. The simplest way to make the classic kick drum is to say the letter "b." To make it sound louder and punchier, you need to do what is called a lip oscillation. This is where you let air vibrate through your lips - a bit like "blowing a raspberry." Once you can do this, you make a very short lip oscillation.  Make the b sound as if you are saying b from the word bogus. This time, with your lips closed, let the pressure build up. You need to control the release of you lips just enough to let them vibrate for a short amount of time. Make a simple "ts" sound but have your teeth closed or lightly closed. Move the tip of your tongue forward behind your front teeth for a thin hat sound and to the traditional t position for a heavy hat sound. Breathe out for longer to create the open hat sound. You can also do successive hi-hats by making a "tktktktk" sound, using the mid-back of your tongue to make the "k" sound. You can make an open hi-hat sound by drawing out the breath in the "ts" hi-hat, so it's more like "tssss" for a more realistic open door sound. Another way of producing a realistic high-hat sound is to make a "ts" sound with your teeth clenched. The simplest way of making a classic snare sound is to say the letter 'p.' However, making a 'p' sound is too quiet. To make it louder you can do several things: the first is to make a lip oscillation. This is where you push the air out of your lips making them vibrate. The second is where you breathe out at the same time making a [ ph ] sound.  To make the 'p' sound more interesting and more snare-like, most beatboxers add a second fricative (continuous) sound to the initial 'p' sound: pf ps psh bk. The variation {pf} is...

Article in English: To get tan quickly, you'll need to apply a lotion or oil with a low SPF, but you still want to make sure you have some protection from the sun's powerful rays. Choose between rub-on lotions, aerosol sprays, and oil rubs and mists that all contain some SPF.  Ideally, choose an SPF between four and 15 depending on the strength of your base tan. If you are already somewhat tan, you can go with a lower SPF. If this is your first exposure of the summer season, choose SPF 15 to avoid getting sunburned. For the most even tan possible, choose a spray or an oil. Because of their watery texture, these two options are the easiest to spread thoroughly over your skin. Make sure to rub in sprays with your hands after spraying. Popular sun tanning lotions and oils are available from Hawaiian Tropics, Australian Gold, Banana Boat, and Maui Babe. Most can be found at your local drugstore or beauty supply store. Wear a lip balm with at least SPF 15. You don't need your lips to be tan. Dry, chapped lips are not only unattractive but also painful. If you want to skip the store-bought stuff and you already have a good base tan, there are natural oils that will attract the sun and give you that olive glow. Apply these natural tan-enhancers before going out into the sun and wash off with soap and water when finished tanning. Some natural products include:  Olive oil Coconut oil Hazelnut oil Avocado oil Wheat-germ oil Sunflower oil Sesame oil Green Tea Extract Like a chicken roasting in a rotisserie, you need to turn your body over frequently to get an even tan. A good rule of thumb is to turn in 1/4 revolutions every half hour. Start on your back, then turn to your left side, then your stomach, and lastly your right side. Make sure to change the position of your arms and legs frequently to avoid awkward tan lines. As the sun moves across the sky, move your towel or lounge chair so that you can always be in direct sunlight. If you don't want to lay around all day, you can also do something active outside, just wear as little...

Article in English: To get that rich Kahlua flavor, you'll want a good-quality base. And it should be strong, too – a weak coffee won't transport the flavors into the final product. Once brewed, prepare to use the coffee immediately. If you're not so great at brewing a decent pot of coffee (it is definitely harder than it looks), you may wish to have a coffee aficionado do this for you. It can make a world of difference. Once the pot has seen its final drips, transport it over to a large bowl. Then, add in 4 cups of granulated sugar and mix in until the little granules are all dissolved. Again, you could use brown sugar or raw sugar if you like. Just know that each little change will affect the flavor and it may or may not be to your liking. Once the sugar has dissolved and the coffee isn't warm anymore, add the vodka, stirring to combine. Some bartenders believe in a combination of vodka and rum, or even different types of vodka or different types of rum within the same recipe to give it a fuller flavor. If you have the end of a few bottles laying around, try combining them – it may not hurt. Three 12 oz bottles will work well, but one large bottle works, too. Cut the vanilla bean into thirds and drop one piece into each bottle. After that, put the cap on. Your Kahlua is made. At this point, you could also add in a cinnamon stick, cocoa nibs (about a tablespoon), or orange peel, if you like. This will give it a more signature, dynamic flavor. The vanilla needs this much time to infuse and the flavors need to settle into the coffee to give it that rich, liqueur flavor. Once the time is up, strain it beforehand and then rebottle. The basement or cellar is good for this stuff, but a closed box in a dark room (or under the bed) will work just as well. Just make sure it has a label on it in case you forget what that mysterious dark bottle is in six months' time.

Article in English: To get the best benefit from your steam treatment, start by washing your face. That will allow the steam to penetrate deeper into your pores, helping flush out dirt and oils that may have gotten trapped inside. If your skin is dry or you’re prone to rosacea, you may not want to use steam. It can potentially dry out your skin and worsen redness. Find a large pot, like the one you’d use for pasta or making a big batch of soup, and fill it about 2/3 of the way full of water. Place the pot on the stove on high heat, and bring the water just to a boil. Avoid filling the pot all the way to the top. It might boil over, and it will be hard to move the pot without spilling any water. Try to find a place where you can comfortably sit, stand, or kneel when you’re deciding where to place the pot. However, make sure to place a folded towel beneath it so the hot pot doesn’t scorch whatever surface you use. For instance, you might want to kneel in a chair at your dining table, or you might want to place the pot on your bathroom counter. Take a large, thick towel and drape it over the top of your head, but arrange it so it doesn’t cover your face. This will help trap the steam, allowing more of it to come into contact with your skin. A thick towel will hold in the steam better than a thin one, but you can use whatever you have on hand. Lower your face toward the pot so the towel is draped down on either side of it. Do not hold your face any closer than 18 in (46 cm) from the water or you may scald your skin. Aim for about 20 to 24 in (51 to 61 cm) away from the water. Stay there for about 5 minutes, or 10 if you’re comfortable enough.  If you’re too uncomfortable to hold your face 20 to 24 in (51 to 61 cm) from the water, it’s fine to back up a little.  Contrary to popular opinion, steam does not open your pores. It relaxes the muscles under your skin and makes it easier to clean, so it can help you get out dirt that’s trapped deep inside. Steaming your face can flush out dirt and oils onto the surface of your skin. In...

Article in English: To get the most out of Zumba, you gotta let loose. You gotta channel your inner child and dance like no one's watching – Dance like no one is watching. Who cares if you're shaking it to the left when everyone else is shaking it to the right? No one, that's who. If you let loose and enjoy yourself, you're doing it right. If you're tentative about your moves, you won't get the workout you're meant to get. If you keep your feet toeing the line (more literal talk here) and your arms at your sides, you won't have fun, you won't sweat, and you probably won't come back. So go for it! This is the easiest way to get more out of your Zumba workout. It's tempting to be a little reserved, to let your legs do the brunt of the work, but throw your arms in there, too! Those Latin dancers look so good because while their feet are moving, they make sure the movement is seen through their entire bodies -- even down the lengths of their arms. You wanna look like them, right?! When it doubt, just hold them strong. You don't have to flail them around like a madman or a six-year-old, but do hold them out from your sides, strong and sassy-like. Half the fun of Zumba is the attitude! There are squats, lunges, and some straight-up workout moves in Zumba. Then there are the natural levels of the dances, when your instructor has you working closer to the floor and working your way up. When this is part of your choreography, go all out. The more up and down you move, the better a workout you'll get. And the more you'll feel it in the morning! You know, the burn and the sense of accomplishment. If you've got it, flaunt it, right? So shake away. The entire room is pretending like they're Jenny from the Block, so join in! The only wrong way to do it is to not do it. The more you shake, the better you'll look, the more fun you'll have, and the more you'll be doing the moves like they're meant to be done. So shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake. Shake yo' booty. Shake yo' booty! If you think you're doing a move that can't incorporate a...

Article in English: To get the most surface area, try to slice the bread diagonally, instead of straight down. You do not need to coat both sides with olive oil. The oil will help create a "barrier" between the topping the bread, and prevent it from getting too soggy. Depending on how big your baking sheet is, and how many slices you have, you may need to make several batches. The rack should be about 4 to 5 inches (10.16 to 12.7 centimeters) from the heat source. When the edges turn golden brown, take them out.  You can also toast them under a broiler for 3 minutes, turning once.  For richer bruschetta, melt some butter in a large skillet. Heat the bread slices in the skillet on both sides until they are golden brown. After this point, you can start preparing the traditional tomato-basil topping, or you can use a different, more unique one.

Article in English: To get the ollie down, you have set up your feet correctly. Traditional set up for the ollie requires you to have your front foot near the middle of the board and your back foot down by the tail of the board. You don't want the back foot to be hanging off the tail, but to be in the middle of the tail so you have a grip on the board. Your front foot should be just behind the last two bolts on the front part of your skateboard, completely parallel to them. Remember that you have to get this down and learn to do a regular ollie before you can start going higher in the air. Now, you shouldn't move the front foot back too much, or your skateboard will just stand up vertically. However, if you've really gotten the regular ollie down solid, then you can move that front foot toward the center of your board, just two or more inches. Sliding that front foot is what gives you your lift, so the more sliding room you have, the higher you will go. You can start by just moving that foot back an extra inch or so, as you get more comfortable in this position. Now that you have a solid ollie, you can get it higher by sliding your front foot all the way to the nose of the board, up to the part where the board starts to curve upward. This way, your foot will get caught where it starts to rise, and since your foot is no longer sliding, if you keep moving it, it will bring the board higher in the air. Just remember that, even if you get it higher, you will still have to even out your board in the air by pushing gently with your front foot. Jumping higher is what will help you get your ollies higher. To get up higher, you'll need to pop the board harder, suck your feet up with the board, and jump higher than normal, trying to get your knees almost all the way up to your chest. You can raise your arms a bit more to help yourself get that extra lift too. Remember that you'll have to be really comfortable with your ollies to feel good about lifting your knees and body up that high when you jump. Along with jumping higher, one of your...

Article in English: To get the ultimate look from your at-home gel nails, start with the ultimate blank nail. Take the time to cut, file, and shape your nails. Before you cut them, decide what shape you want. Cut the basic shape and then file the tips. Finally, finish shaping by rounding the surface of your nails with a buffer.  You can create round, square, pointy, almond, or oval nails. Because gel nails are based off of your nails, this is when you shape your nails. It is not like applying acrylic nails that can be shaped during/after application.

Article in English: To give first aid to a child older than twelve months, sit or stand behind them and place an arm diagonally across their chest. Lean the child forward slightly, so they are resting against your arm. With the heel of your free hand, administer five firm and distinct blows to the child's back, directly between the shoulder blades. If this does not dislodge the object, move on to abdominal thrusts. An abdominal thrust - also known as the Heimlich maneuver - works by forcing the air out of a person's lungs, in attempt to clear any obstructions from the airways. It is safe to perform on a child older than a year. To administer an abdominal thrust:  Stand or sit behind the choking child and wrap your arms around their waist. Make a fist with one hand and place it firmly on the child's stomach, thumb side in, slightly above the belly button.  Wrap your other hand around the fist and deliver a quick upward and inward thrust to the child's abdomen. This motion should force air and any lodged objects out of the windpipe.  For smaller children, be careful not to thrust against the breastbone, as this could cause injury. Keep your hands just above the navel.  Repeat up to five times. If the child is still choking after five back blows and five abdominal thrusts, repeat the entire procedure again and continue to do so until the object becomes dislodged, the child starts coughing, crying or breathing, or emergency services arrives. If the child still cannot breath and loses consciousness, you will need to perform modified CPR as quickly as possible.

Article in English: To give the right impression, men should have a clean, simple, well-ironed top. Having a top that fits well over the shoulders, is long enough in the sleeves and torso, and is free of stains or wrinkles is the key to success.  For a professional environment, wear a solid color suit top, long-sleeved shirt, and matching tie. Avoid a tie that is too goofy or loud and pick a subtle, simple color, or a quiet pattern. For a business casual environment, try a khaki top, a sweater, or a well-ironed, short sleeved button-down shirt. Your tie should still be professional, but you can pick a more fun color or pattern. For a casual environment, a well-fitting cotton shirt will do, but don't wear your favorite t-shirt. Avoid necklaces or jewelry for any environment. This will make you look too flashy. The right pair of pants can go a long way in showing that you will be competent in the work force. Here are some tips:  For a professional or business casual environment, your pants should match your suit top or sweater. Make sure your pants are well-ironed and are the right length and size. Your ankles should not peek out under your pants. Avoid wearing jeans, even if you're dressing for a casual work environment. You can wear jeans when you're actually hired. Avoid shorts at all costs. You'll look like you're on vacation instead of a job interview. Your interviewers will notice your feet and the right pair of shoes can make or break your outfit. Here are some tips:  Wear shoes that are shiny, clean, and preferably new. Make sure your shoes match the rest of your outfit. For a professional environment, wear shoes that are a solid color, preferably black or brown. Leather business shoes or classic loafers are the safest bet. Have shoes appropriate to the culture. You can wear more casual wingtips to a casual interview, but avoid wearing flip flops at all costs. Wear subtle socks. Your socks should be a solid color and preferably dark or otherwise just coordinated, matching either your pants, shoes or dress shirt. They...

Article in English: To give your creativity a jump-start, socialize as much as you can, particularly with people who are different from you. Spending time with people whose life experience and world view is unlike yours can expand your mind and offer fresh perspective on everyday things. To meet new people, attend events or do activities that are outside of your normal routine and engage in conversation whenever possible.  For instance, if the art world is new to you, visit a gallery or museum and strike up a conversation with an artist or patron. Break the ice by saying something like, "I'm new to the art world. Is this a passion of yours?" Try varying your established routes to increase the chances you’ll meet new people. Walking can provide you time to think over ideas by allowing you to zone out and engage with creative thoughts. Walking will also allow you to engage with new surrounding or nature, both of which may inspire your creativity. Make a point of walking several times a week for at least fifteen minutes, or everyday if possible. Exercising regularly can boost creativity by reducing stress and improving cognitive function. Create an exercise regimen for yourself to follow, aiming for about 30 minutes of exercise a day. Choose light cardio exercise like walking, jogging, or bicycling. Sleep can help your mind stay rested and refreshed, leaving you creatively recharged. The brain is also very active during sleep, so "sleeping on a problem" may allow your mind to re-evaluate connections and formulate new ideas about an issue.Strive to get a solid 8 to 9 hours sleep each night, and stay on a sleep schedule.

Article in English: To give yourself a gorgeous manicure, make sure you have all the right supplies. You might have to spend a bit up front, but next time you want to paint your nails, you'll already be covered. Get the following products:  Nail polish remover Cotton balls or cotton swabs Cuticle trimmer Nail buffer Nail trimmers Nail file Cuticle or hand cream Nail polish Base coat Top coat Nail polish and remover can damage many surfaces such as cloth, wood finish and plastic.  Wear an expendable t-shirt and no valuable accessories, sit at a desk or table, and protect it with scrap paper (not newsprint, which smudges). Make sure the table itself and anything near it is not particularly valuable or important to keep perfect because there might be a spatter or spill soaking through.  You might not want to work near a computer, for instance. Get a bowl or stopper the sink and fill it with warm (not hot!) water and a few drops of soap. Soak your hands only for a few minutes. The water and soap will help to loosen dirt, dead skin, and any dust left over from filing and buffing, and soften cuticles.  Use a nail brush to gently clean your nails and the skin around them.  Gently scrape under your nails if necessary to remove dirt.  If you want your nails and cuticles really manageable, you can soak them  in Dawn dishwasher soap.  If you have dry skin or fragile nails you should not soak them; just rinse them. Don't go overboard with scraping, since you can damage your nails if you remove the white powdery substance that is actually part of your nails.

Article in English: To graph a linear equation, all you have to do it substitute in the variables in this formula.  In the formula, you will be solving for (x,y). The variable m= slope. The slope is also noted as rise over run, or the number of points you travel up and over. In the formula, b= y-intercept. This is the place on your graph where the line will cross over the y-axis. Graphing a linear equation is the most simple, as you don’t have to calculate any numbers prior to graphing. Simply draw your Cartesian coordinate plane. If we use the example of y=2x-1, we can see that ‘-1’ is in the point on the equation where you would find ‘b.’ This makes ‘-1’ the y-intercept.  The y-intercept is always graphed with x=0. Therefore, the y-intercept coordinates are (0,-1). Place a point on your graph where the y-intercept should be. In the example of y=2x-1, the slope is the number where ‘m’ would be found. That means that according to our example, the slope is ‘2.’ Slope, however, is the rise over run, so we need the slope to be a fraction. Because ‘2’ is a whole number and a fraction, it is simply ‘2/1.’  To graph the slope, begin at the y-intercept. The rise (number of spaces up) is the numerator of the fraction, while the run (number of spaces to the side) is the denominator of the fraction. In our example, we would graph the slope by beginning at -1, and then moving up 2 and to the right 1. A positive rise means that you will move up the y-axis, while a negative rise means you will move down. A positive run means you will move to the right of the x-axis, while a negative run means you will move to the left of the x-axis. You can mark as many coordinates using the slope as you would like, but you must mark at least one. Once you have marked at least one other coordinate using the slope, you can connect it with your y-intercept coordinate to form a line. Extend the line to the edges of the graph, and add arrow points to the ends to show that it continues infinitely.

Article in English: To grow healthy and strong, your moringa tree will need around 6 hours of direct sunlight. Moringa trees are from a tropical climate, so they need the maximum amount of sunlight you can provide. Keep them in an area that receives full sun throughout the day. If you live in a temperate climate, you will want to store your tree inside your home or in a greenhouse during the winter. Moringas are susceptible to the frost and will not survive through the winter.  Moringas can grow up to 6 feet (1.8 m) tall in a year, so plan accordingly with how much space you have available. Moringa can be restarted each year with cuttings taken from the previous season. Cuttings from moringa trees are the same age as the tree it was cut from.

Article in English: To grow mold on bread you will need to collect the following materials: a slice of bread (any kind), a sealable plastic bag, a spray bottle, and water. You can use any type of bread, but know that store-bought sandwich bread contains preservatives and will take longer to grow mold. Fresh bread will grow mold faster.  A spray bottle is not entirely necessary, but it is an easy way to evenly coat the bread in a fine mist of water. Fill the spray bottle with water before beginning the experiment. If you don’t have a plastic bag, you can replace it with some other sealable clear container. You want it to be clear so you can observe the mold growth and sealable to contain the mold. An old plastic or glass jar would also work, but you’ll need to throw it away at the end of the experiment. Using the spray bottle, lightly spray the piece of bread with a coat of mist. You don’t want the bread to be soaked, you just want there to be some moisture to stimulate the growth of the mold. One spray is sufficient. Alternative methods for keeping the environment moist include:  Placing a wet paper towel in the plastic bag with the bread. Sprinkling some water over the top of the piece of bread. Spraying the inside of the bag instead of directly on the bread. Place your moistened piece of bread into the plastic bag and seal it closed. For the remainder of the experiment you’ll want to keep this bag sealed to avoid exposing yourself to the mold spores that will grow on the bread. If you have allergies, you might not want to do this experiment as it may cause you difficulty. Mold thrives in warm environments with moisture in the air. Find a warm place in your home and store the sealed bread here. You’ve already supplied sufficient moisture to the bread for growth. Mold is a heterotroph, so it does not need sunlight to create food. It gets food from the bread itself in the form of starch which is broken down into smaller sugars. This is why mold often grows in dark, damp areas such as basements. Make daily observations of your...

Article in English: To have a generally healthy body, you should try to maintain a healthy weight. If you're overweight, you are not maintaining a generally healthy body.  Calories are a unit of measurement. You eat calories from food and that energy is used to fuel your bodily functions and activities throughout the day.  If you consume too many calories, you may run the risk of gaining weight. If you do not eat enough calories, you may lose weight. The American diet is based on a 2,000 calorie-per-day diet. You may need to change how many calories you eat daily to match your body's needs and to maintain a healthy weight. To lose weight, it is considered safe to cut 500 calories from your diet and aim to lose about one to two pounds per week. Use an online calculator or smartphone app to find out how many calories your body needs. A good rule of thumb is that a moderately active adult needs about 15 calories per pound to maintain her weight. Track calories to see if your current diet meets your needs. Having a well-balanced diet is one of the most important parts of maintaining a generally healthy body. Without a balanced diet, it'll be very difficult to maintain proper health.  A balanced diet means that you consume foods from each food group most, if not every day. In addition, you should consume a variety of foods within each food group. Having a wide variety of foods from food groups will allow you to consume a variety of different nutrients.  Lastly, a balanced diet means eating the right proportions or servings of each food. If you eat mostly protein foods but very few fruits or vegetables, your diet isn't balanced. Following the appropriate portion sizes of each food group: 3-4 oz (card deck sized) of protein, 1 cup vegetables or 2 cups leafy greens, 1/2 cup chopped or one small piece of fruit, and 1 oz or 1/2 cup of grains.  Balance your meals and snacks during the day. Aim for three to four servings of protein daily, five to nine servings of fruits and vegetables, and three to four servings of grains (1/2 being whole)....

Article in English: To have a healthy coat, a cat must eat a healthy diet. Whether your cat eats canned food, dry food, raw food, or a combination of these, its diet should be high in proteins and fats. Your cat should also always have plenty of clean, fresh water to drink. Talk to your veterinarian for specific advice about selecting the right foods for your particular cat. Commercial cat foods can vary in quality. To ensure that your cat’s coat stays healthy-looking, check the food’s nutritional content (listed on the label) and make sure it matches your cat’s current needs.  To ensure quality, you can look for a cat food with a label showing that it has been certified by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO).  Raw meat diets are recommended by some experts as a way of making it easy for a cat to get the nutrients it needs. Your cat’s dietary needs will vary throughout its lifetime; foods that are designed for kittens are not suitable for older cats, and vice versa. The nutrition your cat needs also depends on its individual factors, like health and activity level. If your cat is not receiving the right kind of food for its age and activity level, its coat may look coarse and dull. If you are feeding and grooming your cat according to its needs, and its coat still seems dull, brittle, or coarse, talk to your veterinarian about the problem. Health problems, such as digestive issues, parasites, cancer, obesity, or stress can affect the appearance of your cat’s fur.  Your veterinarian can determine if there is an underlying health problem causing the poor coat quality.

Article in English: To heat a cup of water quickly and easily, microwave it for 1 minute. You could also heat it on the stovetop using a pot or kettle. Heat it over medium-high heat, then take the water off of the stove just before it starts to boil.  For 1 serving, heat 1 cup (240 mL) of water. Use more water if you want to make additional servings. Using a kettle will make it easier to pour the hot water into your mug. Check your instant coffee container’s label to see how much you should use to get the best taste. Most companies recommend using 1 to 2 teaspoons for 1 cup (240 mL) of water. For a richer coffee flavor, add sugar or spices after mixing the coffee with hot water. If you’d like, add a teaspoon of sugar, cocoa powder, cinnamon, or allspice. Give the coffee a good stir before enjoying it or serving it to someone else. Mix it until it’s uniform in color to evenly blend the milk and sugar (if you’re using them).

Article in English: To help decrease your hunger, studies have shown that filling up on low or no calorie fluids can help you tame your hunger and eat less.  If you are very hungry before a meal, drink a glass of water or have a bowl of broth or vegetable soup. Your stomach will feel physically full and the flavor can trick your brain into thinking it had more to eat.  Other beverages to try include: unsweetened coffee or tea, flavored water or a glass of skim milk. Also be sure to drink enough clear fluids throughout the day. If you don't replace all the fluids that you lose, you could get seriously ill. Eating the right types of foods can also help you manage your hunger throughout the day.  Include lean protein at each meal. Lean protein is great for managing hunger. It takes your body a longer time to digest it and sends signals to your brain that you are satisfied. Be sure to include 1 – 2 servings of lean protein at each meal and snack. Focus on fiber-rich fruits, vegetables and whole grains. In addition to protein, fiber helps keep your body feeling fuller. It provides bulk and "roughage" to your meals and makes you feel satisfied with less and helps you stay satisfied longer.  Examples of meals that are high protein and high fiber include: a grilled salmon salad, chicken or tofu stir-fry with brown rice, or a greek yogurt with fruit and nuts. Many studies have shown that having a minty flavor in your mouth can help decrease hunger throughout the day.  Brush your teeth after meals! When your mouth feels clean, you will not want to eat and ruin that minty clean feeling. Try bringing a toothbrush with you at work to help prevent snacking during the afternoon.  Chew a stick of gum! A lot of people just want to have something to chew on. Chewing gum can help keep your mind off of eating and help trick your brain that you're eating. Also try sipping on peppermint tea or sucking on sugar-free peppermint candies. Again, the minty flavor may help decrease your overall hunger.

Article in English: To help improve the health of your sinuses, place a humidifier in your bedroom while you sleep. A humidifier produces steam and moist air, which will help clear out the nasal passages.  When your nasal passages are blocked, you need to focus on keeping your nasal passages and sinuses moist. Although many people think that if you have have a runny nose, that dry air is the trick, dry air only further irritates the membranes in your nasal passage. Humidifiers are especially good during the wintertime because the air in most homes is very dry due to central heating.  Even placing a hot water bottle near the ear may have a similar effect and help to draw out ear fluid. Taking a long, hot shower works very similarly to the steam treatments described above. The hot water from the shower creates warm, moist air that is useful in clearing out blocked nasal passages and relieving sinus pressure. You also achieve a similar beneficial effect by placing a warm compress on your face to help open up your nasal passages and relieve any pressure you might be feeling in your sinuses. Make sure that you drink lots of water (at least 8 full glasses a day) because this will thin out your mucus and can help prevent sinuses blockages, and thereby ease pressure. Thinned out mucus is much more likely to drain. Whenever you feel the beginnings of sinus pressure, make a concerted effort to stay hydrated. When you go to sleep at night, place a couple of pillows beneath your head so that it is elevated. This will make breathing easier and keep the sinus pressure from building up.

Article in English: To help improve your digestion, you should increase the amount of fiber and fluids in your diet slowly. Doing this over a period of time will prevent you from feeling gassy or bloated. You should also eat smaller meals throughout the day to avoid overloading your digestive system. Drinking more water throughout the day will also encourage your digestive system to function properly.  Your doctor may suggest taking a fiber supplement like Metamucil or Citrucel to increase the amount of fiber in your body. Avoid foods that contain lactose and gluten to prevent aggravating your digestive system. Patients with autonomic dysfunction of the stomach or diabetic gastroparesis should consume small meals four to five times a day. Meals should be low in fat and contain only soluble fiber. Your doctor may prescribe medication called metoclopramide (Reglan) to help your stomach empty faster by encouraging your digestive tract to contract; however, this medication can cause drowsiness and may be less effective over time. Your doctor may also recommend medication to help with constipation, such as over-the-counter laxatives. Talk to your doctor about how often you should take these medications.  Other medications, like antibiotics, can help relieve diarrhea or other bowel issues. Antibiotics can prevent excessive bacterial growth in your intestines, leading to a better functioning digestive system. Erythromycin causes increased functioning of the stomach, and is a prokinetic agent that improves gastric emptying. Your doctor may also prescribe antidepressants to treat nerve-related abdominal pain. You may experience side effects like dry mouth and urine retention when on these medications. Set up a schedule so you drink fluids and urinate at the same time every day — try to use the bathroom every hour and work up to every three to four hours. This can help to increase your bladder’s capacity and retrain your bladder so it empties at the appropriate times.  Your doctor may prescribe medication to help empty your bladder, such...

Article in English: To help keep your gerbil happy, you will need to keep his cage nice and clean. Once per week you should also perform a deep cleaning on your gerbil’s cage. Remove everything from your gerbil’s cage (including your gerbil) and scrub the sides and bottom with warm, soapy water. Then rinse and dry the cage before putting in new bedding, your gerbil’s accessories, and your gerbil. In addition to a weekly deep clean, you should also do the following every day:  Remove and replace any soiled or damp bedding. Remove and dispose of droppings. Remove old food. It will take some time and patience before your gerbil is ready to let you hold him. Build up his trust in you by allowing him to sniff your hand and even give you a little nibble. You can also offer your gerbil some treats from your hand to build up his trust in you. Once your gerbil is more comfortable with you, you can try to pick him up. To pick up your gerbil, gently cup both hands around him and lift him slowly out of his cage. Do not swoop in and grab him or you will startle him and cause him to hide from you. Gerbils also need time outside of their cages to be happy. Once you have established trust with your gerbil, take him out of his cage once per day for a little supervised play time outside of his cage. Make sure to keep him in a room where you can monitor his movement. Otherwise he might burrow somewhere and make it difficult for you to find him. A healthy gerbil will be much happier than an unhealthy gerbil. If a gerbil is well cared for, it may live to be 3 or even 4 years old. Take your gerbil for regular check-ups with the veterinarian to make sure that he stays healthy and happy. An unhealthy gerbil may have a variety of symptoms, such as sneezing, difficulty breathing, diarrhea and lethargy. If your gerbil is sick, take him to see a veterinarian right away.

Article in English: To help make the coating of the seed easier for the new growth to penetrate, you can use a damp paper towel and plastic bag to soften them up. Place a folded damp paper towel in a plastic bag and then place the seeds inside of the towel. Put the bag in a dry, warm place, such as a cupboard in your kitchen and leave them there for two to five days. The seeds should start to sprout within this time frame and then you can plant them. You can purchase seed trays for your seedlings, or you can simply use individual planting pots for each seed. Fill each small tray or container with your soil (already amended with fertilizer and compost). Then, place a single seed about ½ an inch below the surface of the soil in each container. Seeds will need to be watered on a daily basis, so that the soil is kept moist at all times. Give seeds the biggest amount of water after first planting, and then continue adding about a teaspoon of water daily after that. If you’ve planted seeds before, you may have a heat lamp on hand; heat lamps are perfect for aiding your seeds in growing quickly. If not, place your seeds in a location that gets plenty of sunlight, like a south facing window, and lots of heat, like near a radiator. Just be careful the seeds are neither too hot nor too cold, as both will result in little to no growth. It will take anywhere from a few days to a few weeks for the seeds to first sprout. The seeds will sprout a pair of leaves to start, known as ‘seed leaves’. After a bit, a second pair of leaves will sprout; these are known as the ‘true leaves’ and signals that the chilies are ready for transplanting. You can continue waiting for them to grow and for the heat outdoors to rise, or you can plant them as is when their true leaves come in. Seeds that are grown indoors are used to a constant temperature with little fluctuation; when they are introduced into the ‘wild’, they can experience a bit of shock from the varying temperatures, moisture levels, and changing sunlight. Harden them off by placing their pots or...

Article in English: To help prevent acne on your forehead and anywhere else on your face, wash your face at least twice a day and after any activity that results in a sweat. Excessive sweat can increase the severity of acne.  Do not use an abrasive that is harsh on the skin. Make sure to wash your face gently. Wash with your fingertips in light circular motions. Avoid washing your face too often. More than twice a day is not recommended. Once or twice a week, use an exfoliating face scrub. This can help by removing the outer layer of your skin and opening pores. It also helps remove dead skin and other pore clogging debris. Be very gentle when exfoliating your face to prevent irritation. Some products can irritate your skin and cause acne. If you have a lot of acne on your forehead, use makeup as sparingly as you can. Hair gels, hair mousse, hair spray, and sunscreens can cause forehead acne.  The chemicals, oils, and grease in makeup, even “hypoallergenic” makeup, can be irritating and damaging. Make sure to remove all makeup before going to sleep. Cleanse your face with mild cleansers, like Cetaphil, Olay, Neutrogena, or Aveeno.  Look for a cleanser labeled as non-comedogenic. This means that the product doesn’t promote the formation of comedones, blackheads, whiteheads, or pimples.  Examples include products from Neutrogena, Cetaphil, and Olay. You can also use bars with benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or alpha hydroxy acids. There are many store-brand products that are non-comedogenic. Read the label to be certain.  Avoid scrubbing your skin. This can cause damage to your skin like scarring, or turn the bumps into sores. It can also cause more acne because scrubbing can cause the infection to spread. Some moisturizers can clog your pores and make it greasy or oily. Try using non-comedogenic oils to moisturize your skin. They are less likely to clog pores. Try oils such as:  Almond Oil Apricot Kernel Oil Avocado Oil Camphor Castor Oil Evening Primrose Oil Grape Seed Oil Hazelnut Oil Hemp Seed Oil Mineral Oil Olive Oil...

Article in English: To help prevent tangles in curly hair, condition your hair every day with the help of a wide-toothed comb. Overall, the ultimate key to fewer tangles is keeping your hair nourished, moisturized, and protected from environmental factors such as the sun and pollutants. This will also help control frizz. Avoid washing your hair every day, no matter your hair type, as this can dry out your scalp and your hair. Shampoo your hair a few times a week, at most. Try to shower in the morning. Hair is more malleable when it is wet, so it might get rubbed the wrong way while you toss and turn in the night. It may be very hard to tame your tangled hair in the morning if you showered the night before. If you must shower at night, give yourself a few hours before bed so that your hair has time to dry out. Keep your hair in healthy shape by getting regular trims. Cut a small amount from the tips of your hairs to remove any split ends from your hair. Your hair will have fewer tangles if you don’t have split ends. Consider braiding your hair or tying it up loosely before bed. Securing your hair on top of your head will reduce friction and tangling overnight. Your hair won’t be able to move about so freely, and you will be less likely to roll over it and tangle it. Satin is a slippery fabric, so your hair will slide more easily over the surface and tangle less than with a cotton pillowcase. This will help keep your hair from tangling up in friction when you sleep. Consider simply trying a new, shorter hairstyle, especially when it is warm. You might even look younger. Maintain your hairdo by keeping it simple and easy, washing it only according to what your hair type needs. For instance, if you have dry and thin hair, only wash your hair twice a week, and make sure that you use a quality shampoo and conditioner. In the winter, when the weather is cooler, you can grow out longer hair to cover the nape of your neck.

Ежедневно наносите на волосы кондиционер. Реже мойте волосы шампунем. Не ложитесь спать с мокрыми волосами. Избавляйтесь от секущихся кончиков волос. Завязывайте волосы перед сном. Надевайте на ночь атласный платок или наволочку. Попробуйте коротко постричься. Готово.


Article in English: To help reduce leg acne, shower often. Aim for once every day. Bathing removes bacteria, dirt, and sweat from your skin.  If you sweat a lot, for example after a workout, you should take an extra shower afterwards. Legs can be prone to sweating during physical activities. Use a gentle product. Use products labeled as noncomedogenic. This means it won't promote the formation of acne. If your leg acne has larger pimples and bumps, you may want to try using an antibacterial cleanser. Consider an exfoliating product or using a loofah once or twice a week. Try products from brands like Neutrogena, Cetaphil, and Olay. Herbal oils may be effective to spot treat acne on your legs. These essential oils have antibacterial and antiseptic properties. Herbal oils may help new pimples from forming and help pimples heal. They can also help dissolve the oil that clogs up the pores.  Try spearmint, peppermint,, calendula, lavender, or tea tree oil.  Always combine the essential oil with a carrier oil. Try camphor, mineral oil, castor oil, almond oil, avocado oil, olive oil, peanut oil, hazelnut oil, apricot kernel oil, safflower oil, grape seed oil, hemp seed oil, and evening primrose oil. Mix 10 drops of the essential oil for every ounce of carrier oil. Dab the mixture on any problem areas. Always test the essential oil for sensitivity on your skin. Add a drop of the essential oil diluted in water to your skin. Wait for about an hour. If you have no reaction, use the oil. Sea salt is great to treat acne. It cleans the area and helps eliminate the acne-causing bacteria. Sea salt works as an exfoliant, which means it helps get rid of impurities and dead skin.  Sea salt baths can be especially effective for your legs since you can soak your legs in the bath water. Begin filling your tub with hot water. Add a cup of sea salt to the running water. This will help it dissolve more easily. Soak your legs for at least 10 to 15 minutes. You can also add about three to five drops of an acne-fighting essential oil, such as lavender,...

Article in English: To help thin the oil paint on your brushes, you’ll need a paint solvent. Odorless mineral spirits work well, so fill a small glass or ceramic bowl with a small amount of the liquid and place it in the sink where you plan to clean the brushes. You can also use turpentine to remove oil-based paint from brushes. However, it has an extremely strong odor so it’s important to ensure that you’re working in a well-ventilated area. When you’re ready to clean the brush, submerge it in the bowl of mineral spirits to ensure that all of the dirty bristles are coated. Next, rub the brush back and forth against your hand to work the mineral spirits into the bristles. Make sure that you rub both sides of the brush over your hand to ensure that you work the minerals spirits into all of the oil-based paint stains. After you’ve worked the minerals spirits into the brush, squeeze a small amount of dishwashing liquid soap onto the bristles. Use your fingers to vigorously rub it into the brush.  Any dishwashing liquid soap that is marketed as being able to cut through grease will work for cleaning your brushes. The precise amount of dishwashing soap that you’ll need will depend on how large the brush is and how dirty they are. Aim for a 1- to 2-inch (25- to 50-mm) dollop of the liquid. Once you’ve worked the dishwashing liquid into the brush, use your fingers to carefully squeeze all of the excess liquid from the bristles. Try to remove as much of the paint, mineral spirits, and dishwashing soap residue from the brush as possible as you wring it out. After you’ve removed as much of the liquid from the brush as you can, turn the water on in the sink and let it run for 30 seconds or so until it’s hot. Run the brush under the water to rinse it clean, and squeeze it again to ensure that you remove all of the lingering residue. If the brush is extremely dirty or the paint stains are old, you may need to repeat all of these steps two or more times to remove all of the paint. When you’ve removed all of the paint that you can from the...

Article in English: To help you decide, you should write a list of the tasks you plan to perform. Surfing the web, word processing, and spreadsheets (basic usage) will require a less complex computer than digital audio or video production will. If you plan to multitask, make a note of that, as well. Desktop computers are available in these forms:  Full-size computers are inexpensive, easy to repair and upgrade, and come with the widest options of features. Their main disadvantage is the large amount of space they take up. All-in-one computers combine the central processing unit (CPU) and the monitor, taking up the least amount of space. On the other hand, they’re very expensive and difficult to repair and upgrade. Gaming computers are large, very expensive, and designed with the serious gamer in mind. They have a large amount of memory, high-quality sound and graphics cards, and fast processors. Chromebooks are inexpensive, small and, lightweight. If you work primarily with word processing or spreadsheet software, this is a good choice. Its main disadvantages are limited storage space and limited memory. If you choose this option, you’ll need regular access to the online cloud storage. They have fast processors and lots of storage space. Smaller models are lightweight but still have most of the perks. However, larger options have displays that are easier on your eyes. They also give you a wider range of features. Tablets are very lightweight and can be used almost like laptops. Their batteries can hold a charge for anywhere from four to 13 hours. On the other hand, if you use a computer for productivity tasks, you’ll have to buy keyboard. If a computer looks appealing to you based on its stats and your personal needs, get the public's opinion. Ask friends, family members, and trusted staff at electronics stores. Read reviews of the computer and do your research. After all, you don’t want to end up with a dud that just looked cool.

Article in English: To help you figure out what your strengths and weaknesses are, you can do a Reflective Best Self (RBS) exercise. This helps you figure out what others think about you in order to help you find your strengths. To start, think of people in every aspect of your life. Include people from work, old jobs, and former professors or teachers as well as friends and family. Thinking of people to ask in all different areas will help you assess your personality on many levels and within many situations. Once you've chosen your candidate, send them an e-mail asking them about your strengths. Ask them to give you particular instances where they saw you use these strengths. Make sure to mention that these strengths can be skill-based or personality -based. Both kinds of responses are important. E-mail is typically the best way to do it because it takes the pressure off of doing it on the spot, gives them time to think of a response, and allows them to be more honest. Plus, it helps to have it all in writing for your later analysis. Once you receive all the results, you need to look for things that are similar in them. Read through each response and think about what it means. Try to pull out what traits each person is pinpointing, and read the specific instance to see if any other traits arise. After you interpret them all, compare them to one another and find similar traits that many people mention.  It might help to make a table with a column for the name of the trait, a column for each response, and a column for your interpretation.  For example, multiple people in your life told you that you handle things well under pressure, are good in a crisis, and can help manage other people in stressful situations. This means that you can stay calm under pressure, and you're likely a strong and natural leader. You can also read it as you are compassionate to others and are a people person. Once you have all the results, write a self-portrait analysis of your strengths. Make sure to incorporate all the different aspects that people...

Article in English: To help you get a good idea, think what things you like to do. If you love to play sports or you are on a baseball team, make a movie about that. Or perhaps you like dogs, so you could make a movie about a dog. Think about what type of stories you like and what message you want to give the audience. There are many types of stories: love stories, action, and superheroes, accidents, friendship, competition, comedy,... Do some research on the topic of your story too. If you are making a movie about the gold fever in California, go to a museum, search online... .. details are important in the script. When you hand them out if it doesn't have many details a person could imagine it way different from you. To avoid that problem you should make a storyboard (next step). A storyboard is a comic of the script. It shows what happens in every scene, but it's not very detailed. It needs to show what place they are at, the character's positions, what they are doing. If drawing is not your thing, don't worry. You can still make your movie look good without this. They can be friends or family, but make sure that they are going to take it seriously and that they are not quitting on you. It might ruin all your job. If an actor isn't comfortable or is embarrassed by his part, don't make him do it. Otherwise, the acting won't be as good, and there might be more possibilities that he quits on you. Set a deadline for when you need to have costumes. That way, you can prevent that the filming day comes and you don't have the costumes.

Article in English: To help you get started on your personal narrative, structure out your essay so you have a plan when you begin writing. Always begin your essay with a hook, or an opening that draws the reader in. The hook should be short, clear, and easy to read. It should give the reader a sense of what to expect from your essay. The hook is usually not longer than 1 to 2 sentences. It starts your introductory paragraph and can take the form of a scene, question, interesting fact or statement, or even an anecdote. One way you can open the personal narrative is to start right in scene, with the “I” in action. Describe the setting and have the “I” do things in the setting to create an engaging opening scene. For example, you may with, “I huddled under my Disney Princess bed cover as my father banged on my bedroom door. As I listened to his muffled screams, I wondered if it was possible to simply disappear, away from my lonely home life and my failing high school grades.” Choose a question that focuses on the theme of your personal narrative. Address the reader directly in the question. Keep the question short and clear so the reader can follow along. For example, you may start with a question like, “Have you ever wondered how it might feel to leave your home forever?” or “Have you ever felt like a stranger in your own country?” You can use an interesting fact or a funny statement that relates to the theme of your essay. Starting with an interesting fact or statement can draw your reader in and get them thinking right away. For example, you may start with an interesting fact about lawnmowers if your personal narrative is about how mowing lawns as a kid taught you the value of hard work. Or you may choose a funny statement about winning and losing if your personal essay is about learning how to accept failure. An anecdote is often 1 to 3 sentences long and explores a lesson or moral. It should raise questions in your reader’s mind and introduce key ideas in the essay.  For example, if you are writing about learning how to...

Article in English: To help you keep things straight, it can be beneficial to make a page for every main character in the story. You can write down things like the character's physical description, their backstory (what happened before the novel), their education level and job, and their personalities.  You can also include things like their quirks and idiosyncrasies. Having these pages to refer back to will help you keep the details straight while you're writing. "Likeable" characters tend to be goody-goodies without much depth. To create whole, interesting characters, they need flaws and weaknesses, while still allowing the reader to connect with them.  For flaws, maybe a character is always late, hates their mother, or doesn't get along with their colleagues. If you need examples, think about people you know or you've met in the past. You can make the characters empathetic in a number of ways. They can be having financial problems or be the victim in the story. You can display them being selfless, even when they act with self-interest at other times, such as having a killer who fawns over their cat. For instance, Sherlock Holmes isn't necessarily likeable. However, he's interesting, and readers find him empathetic because he is very intelligent and good at what he does. Typically, you don't want to point to just a single person in your story as the suspect. Where's the mystery in that? Instead, you should include a variety of people who could be suspects, as many as 5 or 6. Variety will keep things more interesting, as well as keep your readers guessing. Each potential suspect should have a different motive for killing the victim, and each one should be as plausible as the next. Otherwise, the writing can seem a bit flat. For instance, you don't want every suspect's motive to be killing the person for money. Instead, you could have one person's motive be they want to keep a secret quiet, another person's be they want the victim's money, while a third suspect's motive could be they were jealous of an affair the victim was...

Article in English: To help your body burn more calories naturally, make sure you're getting enough sleep.  When you're sleep deprived it can affect your metabolism and how many calories your body burns.  Studies have shown that those adults who get an adequate amount of sleep each night burn about 5% more calories during the day compared to those who didn't sleep enough.  Health professionals recommend that adults get about 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night. That might mean you need to go to bed earlier or set your alarm clock for later in the morning. In addition to getting a good night's rest, it's also important to make sure you're drinking enough water during the day.  This can affect your weight long-term.  Drinking more water doesn't necessarily help you burn more calories.  However, it can help keep your appetite at bay and prevent excess snacking or overeating.  Aim for at least 64 oz of clear hydrating fluids each day.  In addition, stick to the most hydrating fluids like water, flavored water, sparkling water, decaf coffee and tea.  To minimize calorie intake, stay away from liquid calories.  Drinking beverages like alcohol, sodas, fruit juice, sweet tea or coffee can work against those 300 calories you burned during your workout. If you're working hard to burn 300 calories, try to support that effort by eating well.  Keep portions in control to help minimize your total calorie intake during the day.  It's important to measure out your portion sizes.  Guesstimating how much you're supposed to eat generally results in overeating.  Take the time to use a food scale or measuring cups to track your portions. For protein based foods, measure out a 3 to 4 oz serving or about a 1/2 cup per serving.  For fruits, measure out a 1/2 cup of chopped fruit, 1/4 cup of dried fruit or about 1 small piece per serving.  Vegetables have a bigger serving size.  Measure out 1 cup or 2 cups of leafy salad greens per serving.  Grains should be measured to a 1/2 cup or about 2 oz total per serving.  Also, make sure to measure grains after...

Article in English: To help your incubator maintain a constant temperature, place it where it will receive as little temperature fluctuation as possible. Do not place it near a window where it will be exposed to direct sunlight. The sun's heat can raise the temperature high enough to kill the developing embryos.  Connect the unit to a dependable electrical source, and make sure the plug cannot be accidentally detached from the outlet. Keep the incubator out of the reach of small children, cats and dogs. In general, it's best to keep your incubator on a sturdy surface that won't be knocked or stepped on, and in a place that has relatively stable temperatures, out of the way of drafts and direct sunlight. Before you begin to hatch your chicken eggs, make sure to read all of the instructions in the incubator's instruction manual. Make sure you know how to operate the fan, the light and any other functions. Use the thermometer provided to check the temperature of the incubator. You should do this frequently during the 24 hours before you incubate, to be sure it will stay at the correct temperature. In order to successfully hatch chicken eggs, the conditions inside the incubator must be spot on. To prepare the incubator to receive the chicken eggs, you should adjust the conditions inside the incubator to the optimum level.   Temperature: Chicken eggs should be incubated at a temperature between 99 and 102 degrees Fahrenheit (99.5 is often considered to be ideal). Avoid temperatures outside the 97–103 °F (36–39 °C). range. If the temperature remains beyond either extreme for several days, hatchability may be severely reduced.  Humidity: The moisture level in the incubator should be about 50 to 65 percent relative humidity (60 percent is often considered the ideal). Moisture is provided by a pan of water under the egg tray. You can use a wet bulb thermometer or a hygrometer to measure humidity. Once the conditions inside the incubator have been properly set and monitored for at least 24 hours to confirm stability, it is time to set...

Article in English: To hide cuts, scrapes, or scratches, purchase concealer makeup and an angled eyeliner brush (available at pharmacies or beauty supply stores). Apply the concealer with the brush just along the cut, making the line as fine as possible. Apply a light dusting of translucent powder over the area  to set the makeup and prevent it from rubbing off. Always use a clean brush and only apply makeup to a closed wound. Clothing is one of the simplest and most effective ways to cover up cuts on your body. Long sleeves and pants (or long skirts) will hide cuts or scrapes while they heal. In warm weather, balance your outfit by wearing less-covering items of clothing on areas of your body that do not have blemishes.  For instance, if you wear longs sleeves to hide cuts or scrapes on your arms, wear shorts to balance out your look. Be sure that your clothing is loose enough to give your cuts space to heal. Temporary tattoos can be a fun way to cover your cuts once they have closed over. Purchase temporary tattoos at a beauty supply store or make your own temporary tattoos using eyeliner. After a few days, be sure to remove temporary tattoos as gently as possible with a gentle soap and water. To hide your cuts in plain sight, make your own colorful bandages with  decorative tape (available at craft stores or online). Attach a strip of colorful tape to the non-adhesive side of the bandage and trim away the excess tape around the edges. Apply it to your cut as you would a regular band-aid.

Article in English: To illustrate how each of the central tendency functions works, we’ll use a series of ten small numbers. (You won’t likely use actual numbers this small when you use the functions outside these examples.)  Most of the time, you’ll enter numbers in columns, so for these examples, enter the numbers in cells A1 through A10 of the worksheet. The numbers to enter are 2, 3, 5, 5, 7, 7, 7, 9, 16, and 19. Although it isn’t necessary to do this, you can find the sum of the numbers by entering the formula “=SUM(A1:A10)” in cell A11. (Don’t include the quotation marks; they’re there to set off the formula from the rest of the text.) You do this by using the AVERAGE function. You can place the function in one of three ways:  Click on an empty cell, such as A12, then type “=AVERAGE(A1:10)” (again, without the quotation marks) directly in the cell. Click on an empty cell, then click on the “fx” symbol in the function bar above the worksheet. Select “AVERAGE” from the “Select a function:” list in the Insert Function dialog and click OK. Enter the range “A1:A10” in the Number 1 field of the Function Arguments dialog and click OK. Enter an equals sign (=) in the function bar to the right of the function symbol. Select the AVERAGE function from the Name box dropdown list to the left of the function symbol. Enter the range “A1:A10” in the Number 1 field of the Function Arguments dialog and click OK. The average, or arithmetic mean, is determined by finding the sum of the numbers in the cell range (80) and then dividing the sum by how many numbers make up the range (10), or 80 / 10 = 8.  If you calculated the sum as suggested, you can verify this by entering “=A11/10” in any empty cell. The mean value is considered a good indicator of central tendency when the individual values in the sample range are fairly close together. It is not considered as good of an indicator in samples where there are a few values that differ widely from most of the other values.
