Article in English: If you haven't seen your dog in awhile, check with your family members. It's possible the dog is hiding in one of their rooms or one of them took the dog for a walk. Plus, you can establish when someone last saw the dog. Dogs love food, so you may be able to draw him out by shaking the treat or food bag. Wander through the house with it so your dog can hear it. Once you've established your dog isn't in plain sight, begin searching your house methodically. Check each room carefully, looking under beds and in closets. Make sure to hit every room, bathroom, and closet in the house. Don't forget to look under and behind furniture. Scared dogs can find unique places to hide. Look behind and in appliances, as dogs can get behind refrigerators or crawl in dryers.Also, be sure to check behind access panels and even in areas such as the water heater closet. Small dogs can even be under reclining chairs (behind the footrest) or behind books on a bookshelf. As you're searching, be sure to keep calling out your dog's name. Your dog may be sleeping soundly in a corner, and she may not hear you at first.

Article in English: If you haven't shown much of an interest in girls or other boys before, but are suddenly interested in, or even fascinated by them, then you may be going through one major emotional change of puberty. If you're finding yourself feeling more attracted or even aroused by girls or other boys who were previously uninteresting to you, then this is a sign of your developing body.  Every boy is different. You might have been crushing on girls for years before you hit puberty, or you may be in the throes of puberty without feeling much interest in people of any gender. This will come to you. Of course, if you're gay or bisexual, then your feelings of attraction and arousal may be directed toward other boys or men. Were you previously pretty even-keeled, or would some people even have described you as "chilled"? Well, all of that can go out the window when you hit puberty. Your raging hormones may make it more difficult for you to control your emotions, and you can go from feeling completely happy, indifferent, or intensely angry to having a completely different emotion just a few minutes later.  If you find yourself suddenly feeling incredibly elated out of the blue, you may be experiencing a positive mood swing. If you were feeling fine and suddenly snap at someone or even feel like you're boiling with rage, then you may be experiencing a negative mood swing. Before, you might have thought that everything was "fine," "okay," or, at most, "pretty cool." But now, every great experience you have, whether it's hanging out with friends or eating an amazing slice of pizza, may feel like the greatest thing that ever happened to you. On the other hand, any sad experience, however minor, may make you feel intensely upset, or even "totally depressed." This new intensity of feeling is another sign that your body is adjusting to new levels of hormones. Anxiety is that jittery feeling that can bubble up in your chest, stomach, hands, and almost any part of your body when you're nervous or worried about something. You may find...

Summary in Russian:

Обратите внимание, стали ли вас больше привлекать люди противоположного пола. Следите за перепадами настроения. Обратите внимание, стали ли ваши чувства более интенсивными. Отметьте, не стали ли вы более тревожны. Отметьте, отдалились ли вы от родителей. Подумайте, испытываете ли вы непривычные эмоции. Отметьте, стали ли вы больше беспокоиться по поводу своего внешнего вида.


Article in English: If you haven't started crying yet but think you might, try distracting yourself from your sad thoughts. Play a game on your phone or try to joke around with a friend, or try engaging deeply in your math book or listening carefully and fully to what your teacher is saying. If you are feeling overwhelmed by your feelings and like you are about to cry, try creating some distance between yourself and your thoughts. To gain distance, try imagining yourself as an outsider viewing the situation that is making you sad. You can also try referring to yourself in the third person when you think about your situation. If you are sad about something that is not relevant to the present moment (e.g., something that happened in the past or will happen in the future), try focusing on only the present. To be mindful, pay full attention to your bodily sensations, all the information coming in through your senses, and your thoughts about those perceptions and sensations. You may be able to improve your mood by smiling, even if you don't feel like it. This is called the facial feedback hypothesis and it suggests that the relationship between emotions and the face is a two way street: though we typically smile when we feel happy, some evidence suggests that smiling may cause us to feel happier or otherwise help us to be less sad. If you have a pencil handy, try putting it in your mouth and biting it with your teeth. This will raise your cheeks and facilitate your smile. Try to change your mood by thinking about something really funny or something that makes you really happy. You can also try thinking about what is making you sad in a different way.   For example, you could try thinking about something hilarious you saw on the internet or something nice that your significant other did for you. To think differently about what is making you sad, consider this example. Say you are sad because you received a bad grade on an exam, and that you are upset because you think it means you are not smart. Try instead thinking about your bad...

Article in English: If you haven't updated Snapchat in a while, you'll want to grab the latest version so that you have access to the Chat 2.0 features, which includes free voice calling. This feature was introduced in version 9.27.0.0, released March 2016. You can update your Snapchat app from your device's app store. Voice calls are not available in all areas. You can make a voice call directly from the chat screen. You can only make calls to other Snapchat users.  Open your recent chats by swiping from left to right, or by tapping the box in the lower-right corner. Swipe a chat from left to right to open it, or tap the "New Chat" button in the upper-right corner and select the person you want to call. You may be warned that calls will use Wi-Fi or mobile data. The call will be placed and the recipient will receive a notification that they are being called. If they have notifications enabled for Snapchat, they'll be notified no matter what they're doing. If they don't have notifications enabled, they'll only see the incoming call if they're using Snapchat at the time. If you get a "Busy 😫" message, the recipient is unable to answer a call at this time. The recipient will have the option to either just listen, or join the conversation completely. If they choose to listen, they'll be able to hear you but you won't be able to hear them. If you're receiving a call, you can tap "Listen" to just listen to their audio, "Join" to make it a two-way conversation, or "Ignore" to ignore the call. Snapchat will automatically switch to speaker phone when you hold the phone away from your face. Bring it up to your face to return to regular call mode. The other person will have the option to just watch or join completely. This doesn't actually cut the connection. You'll still be able to hear the other person until they hang up or you exit the chat. Exiting the chat will happen if you switch to any other screen in Snapchat or switch to a different app. If the other person isn't available, or if you just want to send an audio note, you can...

Article in English: If you haven't worked up a major sweat, a disinfectant wipe may be sufficient to clean yourself. Some schools are even handing these out to students in gym class instead of showering. Just bring a pack in your gym bag and wipe down your armpits and other smelly areas. If you're self-conscious about this, you can wipe yourself down in a bathroom stall. Stop at your locker to pick up a towel. You can secure the towel around your waist and then slip out of your pants. Remove your shirt next and quickly slide the towel up under your armpits if you want to cover your chest. You can bring your towel into a bathroom stall and change out of your clothes in the stall. Then emerge already wearing the towel and no one will have seen you change. If you're going to a neighborhood gym, try not to go during peak hours. During lunch or right after work, there's bound to be tons of people at the gym, and so it's more likely the locker room (and showers) will be crowded. Ask a trainer or the person at the desk when the gym is least crowded, then try to fit your work out in during those hours.  If you're in gym class and trying to avoid showering with your classmates, talk to your teacher and ask if you may shower after everyone else has done so. You can also try to wait the other students out, taking your time so that most other people are finished showering by the time you are ready. If your school insists on students showering after gym class, talk to a school administrator and see if you can take gym during final period. It will be much easier to talk your teacher or coach into letting you skip the shower if you assure him or her that you're going to rinse off when you get home. Part of the reason your school wants you to shower is that if students don't clean off after exercising, they may spread serious diseases like MRSA. If you're going straight home after gym, however, the chances of that are slim. If you are experiencing bullying or terrible anxiety because you have to shower at school, ask your parents to write a...

Article in English: If you haven't yet baked your cake, this trick will make removing the pan much easier. Cut out a circle of parchment paper slightly larger than the base of the springform pan you're using. Press it into the bottom of the assembled springform pan. You'll bake the cake on top of the parchment, rather than directly on the pan. This way you can just slide the bottom of the cake off the pan with the parchment, which looks a lot less noticeable than a metal base.  Some chefs also like to use a cardboard cutout to lend the cake a little more support. Cut out a piece of cardboard the same size as the base of the springform pan. Press a piece of parchment paper over the cardboard. If you want to line the sides of the pan with parchment as well, cut  a strip long enough to wrap around the inside of the pan and slightly thicker than the depth of the pan. Now you can make your cheesecake as normal, and when it is completely chilled the cake can be removed with ease from the pan. The presence of parchment won't change anything about the baking process. Go ahead and bake the cheesecake as usual. Even parchment won't save a cheesecake that's still warm when you try to remove it from the pan. Be sure it's thoroughly chilled before you try to lift away the sides or bottom. If you didn't line the sides with parchment, run a knife dipped in hot water around the edges of the cake to loosen it, then unclick the pan's sides and lift them away. If you did line the sides with parchment, you can skip the knife trick and simply take off the sides of the pan. Then very gently pull away the strip of parchment to reveal the cake underneath. Grasp the edge of the parchment paper and gently slide the cake onto a serving plate. The parchment will lift easily from the bottom of the springform pan.

Article in English: If you haven’t already done so, use a sharp cutting knife to cut a circle around the pumpkin’s stem. Make sure the lid is wide enough for your hand to fit through comfortably. Remove the lid once you’re done cutting it. As you’re scooping out the seeds, place the seeds and pulp in a bowl big enough to hold everything. Remove large pieces of pulp from the seeds as you’re placing them in the bowl, but don’t worry about separating every single string. If you’re removing the seeds from a smaller pumpkin, you may not need as large of a bowl.

Article in English: If you haven’t already done so, you’ll need to calculate your Handicap Index in order to determine your Course Handicap (see previous section). Your Course Handicap takes into account your ability and the course’s difficulty in order to show you your handicap for that particular course, or, in other words, how many strokes--based on your Handicap Index--you can deduct from your final score for this particular course. Most golf courses make this information available to players at the club house. Look for the course’s Slope Rating on the course website or ask an employee at the course’s clubhouse. Once you have your Handicap Index and the course’s Slope Rating, you can total up your Course Handicap using the formula: (Handicap Index) x (Slope Rating) / 113. Round to the nearest whole number.  You divide by 113 because it represents the Standard Slope Rating established by the UGSA. Many courses offer conversion charts that allow you to skip the formula altogether when looking up your Course Handicap. The UGSA also offers a comprehensive listing of Course Handicap conversion charts specific to the course you’ll be playing on. For example, if you have a handicap index of 10.0 and a slope rating of 117, you would use the following equation: (10.0 x 117) / 113, which results in a course handicap of 10.3.

Article in English: If you haven’t already, discuss your insomnia with a doctor to make sure there is no treatable medical reason for your poor sleep. There is a long list of conditions that can cause symptoms that mimic insomnia, from anxiety and depression, to hyperthyroidism, Lyme disease, and heart conditions.  Your insomnia could be caused by obstructive sleep apnea, a common condition in people who snore. This condition occurs when the muscles in the back of your throat are relaxing so much that your airway narrows for 10-20 seconds, preventing you briefly from getting air. Your brain will wake you so you can get more air, over and over again throughout the night causing disrupted sleep.  Go over your medications with your doctor, as some may interfere with your sleep. This includes mentioning anything herbal, alternative, or over the counter that you might be taking.  Be sure to tell your doctor if you have any pain that is preventing you from sleeping. Your doctor may recommend cognitive behavioural therapy, completing sleep journals, or relaxation training to sort out your sleep. Though you may be tempted to take a quick nap during the day, and many people can do so effectively, napping may be counterproductive for the insomnia sufferer.  If you must nap, maximize it at 30 minutes and don’t nap after 3 pm. Stick to as regular a sleep schedule as possible, waking and going to bed at the same time each day, even on weekends. Sleep experts agree that your bed should be used only for sleep and sexual intimacy so keep the computers and TV out of your bedroom.  Have black-out curtains to keep your room dark at night. Keep your bedroom cool. Being too warm prevents you from falling soundly asleep. Studies have shown that wearing a cooling cap at night reduces time to fall asleep and increases length of sleep.  Use a white noise machine or fan to drown out inconsistent environmental noises and create a comforting atmosphere. Both supplements are touted as facilitating sleep. Just be sure to not take them too early before bed...

Article in English: If you haven’t purchased a mattress in a while, it’s good to see what options are available before going to a store.  Check prices online to see what you feel is reasonable based on what is being offered. Mattress brands are often coming out with new styles of mattresses including ones that offer adjustable firmness levels and temperatures. Decide how high-tech you want your mattress to be, as some of these may only be available at specialty stores or online. Look up what special features may be offered by each mattress brand including a trial period or money-back guarantee. If desired, you can print this information to bring to the store with you. Although this is difficult to determine without first testing mattresses, a few physical factors can help direct your decision.  If you have back problems, consider a medium-firm to firm mattress choice. These are best for supporting your lower back and reducing back pain. Pillow-top mattresses are best for people who aren’t too light, as they won’t have enough weight to suppress the top and the springs to a point that it makes a difference in comfort. Larger people typically find pillow-top mattresses more comfortable for this reason. Ignore the spring count that is given as proof for a mattress’ supposed quality and firmness or softness. Studies have shown that the number of springs doesn’t actually affect how comfortable the mattress is. Nothing is worse than finding and purchasing your perfect mattress, just to realize you can’t fit it in your house. Check your space availability in your bedroom, and then decide on a size of mattress to fit.  Twin mattresses are the smallest size, and measure on average 39”/75”. The next largest size after a twin mattress is a full or double mattress, which measures at 54”/75”. The queen sized mattress is the most commonly purchased by couples for its size and relative price. It measures at 60”/80”. King size bed is the largest standard sized mattress available. It is 76”/80”. Some mattress brands and stores offer an extra...

Article in English: If you hear of a competitor who appears to be using your trade secret information, you should gather as much information about that use as you can. Going back to the donut icing example, if you hear of a rival donut shop making a new icing, you can buy one of their donuts and attempt to reverse engineer their icing to determine if they appear to be using your formula. If you determine that the rival donut shop is making an icing identical to your icing and you want to enforce your trade secret rights against that shop, the first thing you’ll need to prove is that your icing is, in fact, a trade secret. Factors considered by courts include the following:    The extent to which the information is known outside of your company. The extent to which the information is known by your employees and others in your business. Measures you took to guard secrecy. The value of the information to you and your competitors. The amount of effort or money you expended to develop the information. How easily the information could be acquired or duplicated by others. Once you’ve determined that your information qualifies as a trade secret, you also need to show the court that you took reasonable precautions to protect the information from disclosure, and that the information was misappropriated.   Under the law, misappropriation generally means someone acquired the information through improper means or an employee breached his/her confidentiality obligation. Using the donut shop example, the rival shop could be held liable for trade secret misappropriation if you could show that the rival owner broke into your shop after hours and stole the written formula from your locked filing cabinet. Misappropriation does not apply in certain situations  Where a trade secret is inadvertently disclosed (if your donut icing recipe fell out of your pocket and your competitor picked it up) If a competitor reverse engineers a trade secret (if your competitor bought one of your donuts and attempted to recreate your icing by tasting your product) If...

Article in English: If you hear or feel a crackling or popping sound/sensation when you extend your finger or thumb, it is a good bet that you have trigger finger.  However, it is vital that you have this diagnosis medically confirmed, especially if you have not had the condition previously.  You need to rule out other, possibly serious, conditions.  Your fingers extend and bend by way of tendons, which are essentially flexible bands that stretch and retract to move the attached bones.  They are protected and lubricated by tendons sheaths (basically tubes).  If a tendon sheath becomes inflamed (due to repeated use or another medical condition), it can narrow and cause the tendon to scrape or even get caught in place, causing the locking, popping, and crackling sensations of trigger finger. Being female and/or over age 40, and having diabetes or rheumatoid arthritis can make you more susceptible to trigger finger.  Most often, though, it is suffered by people who use repeated gripping motions with their hand(s), such as carpenters, farmers, factory workers, and musicians. It is important to go to the doctor to diagnose trigger finger, because sometimes people mistake a fracture or dislocation for the condition.  Your physician can determine the severity and proper treatment of your condition, and can also rule out potentially-dangerous infections that can occur at the site of inflammation. Treatment for trigger finger can range from rest to surgery, depending on severity.  Splinting is a common first-level treatment, especially for milder forms of the condition.  Studies indicate that splinting for a period of around six weeks is roughly as effective as a cortisone shot in the joint, another common treatment for trigger finger.  There are several types of splints and you can splint your finger continuously or only during times of rest.  Talk to your doctor about the best treatment option for you. Before trying to splint your finger, confirm with your doctor that you can and should splint your affected finger(s) yourself. ...

Article in English: If you hit your mouth, check for injuries. If your teeth are loose, see a dentist right away. If you have deep cuts, visit a doctor. He may sew the wound closed to prevent scarring, or give you a tetanus shot. Dissolve 1 tbsp (15mL) salt in 1 cup (240mL) warm water. Dip a cotton swab or towel into the water, then dab the cut lightly. This will sting at first, but it reduces the risk of infection. If saltwater is too painful, clean the area with tap water and dab a bacitracin ointment, like Neosporin, onto your lips with a cotton swab. As described above, an ice cube or ice pack wrapped in a towel will reduce swelling on the day of the injury. Once initial swelling is over, switch to warm, wet towels to stimulate blood flow and healing. Hold either type of compress to your lips for ten minutes, then leave it off for one hour before your next use.

Article in English: If you hope to cover up a lot of blemishes with the stucco finish, then you will need to buy a larger quantity of thick stucco paint. For a thick stucco coat, it will only cover approximately 25 square feet (2.3 square m) per gallon (3.8 l).  Ask the paint associate what they recommend for your particular job specifications. They may be able to recommend the best options for your stucco needs and help to supply you with the tools needed to complete the job, since stucco requires more tools than traditional painting. When purchasing stucco paint for outdoor surfaces, you can choose fine, medium or coarse sand stucco. Consult the paint specialists about which option would be best for your building. Stucco is usually made out of Portland cement, sand, hydrated lime, and water. Although some stucco recipes will differ, you can do pretty well by mixing up a simple ratio of 4:12:1 (cement to sand to lime), and then adding enough water, slowly, to get the stucco to the consistency of wet peanut butter. If you want to, add some mortar color to the mixed stucco to approximate the color of the surrounding stucco. This will make it easier to color the newly-patched stucco and blend it in to the existing stucco, although you want still need to color the whole wall later on if the colors don't match seamlessly. Pre-mix stucco patch can come in either textured or un-textured form, and comes ready to go, for ease of application. If you're only patching up a slight area and don't want to spend a lot of time mixing, this might be the right way to go.

Article in English: If you intend to dry sunflowers for decorative purposes, it is better to use small- to medium-sized sunflowers that have only just begun to open. The seeds have not fully developed, so they should not fall out after being dried. The stem should be about 6 inches (15 centimetres) in length, so cut your flower accordingly. Pick a pretty, symmetrical bloom, and pull off any dead leaves around the head of the sunflower. Tie yarn or kitchen twine to the bottom of the stem. You can bundle them in threes, but the heads shouldn't touch. Pick a dark, dry place to hang them, such as an unused cabinet, a closet, or an attic. You can also set the flowers in a vase to dry. The petals will arch more gracefully. Still place them in a dark, dry place. The sunflowers should be dry in about two weeks, but they may take as long as three weeks. When they're dry, cut down the twine and pull them out of the closet. Preserve the color and shape of the flower by spraying it with hairspray. Use them in vases or cut the stems short to place them in shadow boxes.

Article in English: If you jump right into dating your ex when the ink on your divorce is still wet, you or your partner might still feel hurt, betrayed, or angry about whatever occurred between you which culminated in your divorce.  Depending on your specific situation, the two of you might not feel at peace with your past for five years or more.  On the other hand, you might feel comfortable dating again after just one year.  Be honest with yourself and expect your partner to do the same when you renew your romantic relationship with them after a divorce. Asking your ex for a date is little different than asking any other woman for a date, with the useful exception that you already know her.  However, before asking her out, be sure that she is open to the idea.  Inquire through mutual friends or intermediaries what her feelings are about you.  If you’re still in regular contact with her, broach the subject gingerly.  Inquire, for instance, “Do you think there’s any chance we could rebuild our relationship?”  If she replies in the affirmative, move forward with the dating process.  One of the good things about dating your ex-wife is that you already know just what to say to make her interested in going out with you.  Think about her favorite restaurants, bands, and activities, and inform her that you have tickets or reservations at the venue in question. Use your knowledge of her sense of humor when asking her out.  For instance, if her favorite band is Great Band, you might jokingly say, “I’m pretty busy this weekend.  I have two tickets to the Great Band concert on Saturday.  Couldn’t find anyone to go with me.  Oh, well!  I’m going to make a ton of money scalping this extra ticket!” At that point, she will probably be very excited to go out with you again.  If she is not, however, don’t feel too badly.  She is probably just not at the stage where she feels comfortable dating you again.  Be patient when attempting to date your ex. Do not date your ex out of loneliness.  Similarly, do not date your ex simply because he or she...

Article in English: If you just arrived, you may need to take an escalator or elevator down a level from the Arrivals level.  Cross the first lane of traffic at the cross-walk. Find the shuttle dispatcher. If you have booked a shuttle in advance, tell him this information and he will point you to the right section for that company. If you have not, he will point you toward the next available shuttle van. He will add you to his route. Let the driver load your luggage in the back and board the van. Many shuttle companies will wait until they have a full van of about 8 riders. You may have a longer ride than a taxi because the driver is dropping many people off at their destinations. Shuttles cost between $13 and $25 (9 to 17 euros, 8 to 16 pounds) and there are usually some discounts for having more than 1 person in your party. If the driver has been helpful, it is customary to tip 10 percent on the fare.

Article in English: If you just broke up, it's not a good idea to get back together with someone, or tell him that you still have feelings for him. Break-ups take a while to sink in. If you just got dumped yesterday, you'll obviously still have feelings for him. But it's not time to let him know that right now. Wait a while, process what's happened, and then get back in touch in the future if you still feel the same way. There's always a chance.  There's no set time to wait until you get back in touch with an ex, but you need at least enough time to process the break-up. You have to feel like your relationship is actually over. Give it a few weeks at least, and a few months for longer relationships. Try seeing other people for a while. Explore different relationships to learn more about yourself. If it doesn't work out, at least you'll know. If, after you've waited, you still have feelings for your ex, you need to do some soul-searching. Why did you break up in the first place? What problems were there in the relationship? If you've only been focusing on what you miss about your ex, you may be forgetting about all the problems you had. Now is the time to focus on those problems.  Are the same problems likely to come back up? Were the problems your fault, or his? Have you changed in such a way as to accept his problems, or fixed the problems that you caused? If the same things will happen again, it's not a good idea to get back together. If your relationship faced big problems, like infidelity or other serious issues, it may be very difficult to get back together at all. Are you willing to forgive him for the major things that he did wrong? Will he be able to forgive you? How can you earn trust back? You want to give your ex the impression that you're a happy, healthy, sexy, attractive person that he should want to get back with. To do this, start fixing little things about yourself that you'd like to change, now, so you can win him back.  If you had jealousy issues, or partied too much, try to get those things under control....

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: If you just can't break physical contact or you keep staring in your partner's eyes, then you should keep the kissing train rolling. Lightly stroke your partner's hair or cheek and move in for another kiss. You should still take it slow as you feel the other person out, but you can be a bit more bold and adventurous as your kissing progresses. If it feels right, you can slowly move in for the French kiss. Just make sure your partner is also gently using his tongue so you don't catch him off guard. If the first kiss wasn't as good as you expected, don't worry. First kisses are often awkward because both people are still getting to know each other, and your kissing will improve with practice. You can take a break and try another time when it feels right. Even if it doesn't go well, you should still gently pull away from the person and move on. Don't dwell on what happened, and visualize success for your next kiss.

Summary in Russian:

Продолжайте целовать партнера. Не расстраивайтесь, если все прошло не идеально.


Article in English: If you just finished recording and watching your preview, saving the project will automatically open it in the Editor. This is where you will be making your changes, cutting out anything unnecessary and adding transitions. Before you can begin editing, you will be asked what dimensions you want the final product to be. You can choose presets from the dropdown menu. These presets will be labeled with what they are recommended for.  Try to use one of the automatic dimensions. These are based off the initial recording dimensions, and are resized to keep the original proportions. Choosing one of these will help prevent the image from being squished or stretched. You can change your editing dimensions at any time by clicking the Dimensions button at the top of the preview pane. Chances are, no matter how prepared you were, there are a few errors in your presentation. Luckily, you can quickly remove these errors with just a few clicks. Note: If your audio and video are on separate tracks on the timeline, deleting a section from one will not remove it from the other.  Use the timeline navigation tool to find exactly where you want top cut. Click the magnifying glass to zoom in on the timeline, allowing for more precise control. Click and drag the red tab at the top of the Timeline navigation tool. Drag the red tab to the end of the section that you want to cut. Press Space to play back just the part that you have selected. Click the Cut button (scissors icon) above the Timeline to remove the selection. If you scaled down your video dimensions, Camtasia will apply the SmartFocus effect to zoom and pan around your presentation to focus on the active element. It will attempt to put focus on the cursor and active window.  You can see where SmartFocus was added automatically by looking for the icons in the Timeline. Click and drag a SmartFocus icon to move when the transition occurs. Click a SmartFocus icon and then click the Visual Properties button to edit exactly how the transition occurs.

Article in English: If you just got a brand new bedroom suite, a new TV, or a new gaming system, you’re probably excited to show your friend.  Invite them over to hang out and tell them how happy you are about your new stuff.  It’s always fun to share your cool stuff with friends. Don’t brag about your possessions, though.  No one likes a braggart.  Simply say, “Hey, Kelly, I got a new Playstation.  Wanna play?” When you’re on vacation, take cool pictures and post them.  Or maybe your parents threw you the best birthday party ever. Have someone take a few pictures.  Having these pictures can also ensure that you remember all the cool people and experiences in your life.  For example, on Snapchat, you might put a video of the view from your hotel room on your Snap story and make the caption “Views from my vacay.” On Instagram, you might post a selfie of your new haircut or the car you got for your birthday. Do you have great eyes?  Accentuate them with mascara or eyeshadow.  Or perhaps you have nice arms?  Wear a muscle shirt to show off your physique. You’ll be getting compliments all day and you’ll feel great about yourself. Go out on dates and talk to each other regularly to maintain your relationship.  Post pics of you and your bae doing cute things together.  If they get you a gift or do something sweet, post that, too. Make sure you aren’t using them to make your friend jealous; no one likes to be used. In the midst of this jealousy plot, don’t forget about having fun.  Get ice cream with friends, go to the movies with your sister, or go shoot some hoops with your Pops.  The more fun you have, the happier you’ll be.  You might even forget about making your friend jealous altogether. Remember that life is about family and friends!  Don’t get so caught up in making your friend jealous that you lose your friendship with them.

Article in English: If you just got in a fight with your boyfriend, then you’re probably desperate to patch things up immediately. However, if he seems genuinely mad at you, then you may need to back off for a while. Though you don’t want to wait forever to try to get back in his good graces, you should give him at least a few days until he seems to soften toward you and is more eager to talk. Even though you’re in a rush, if you try to talk to him too soon, it may just lead to another fight or to more misunderstandings.  If he completely ignores you and gives you the cold shoulder when you approach him, then he’s not ready yet. Don’t force it. Once he’s open to at least making eye contact and talking to you, then he may be willing to talk. Once enough time has passed and your boyfriend seems to have softened towards you and is more willing to talk, then you should find a quiet place where you can be alone to have a meaningful conversation. Make sure you pick a good time when he isn’t stressed about something else and looks willing to talk. Having the right timing can help everything go by more smoothly.  Let him know that you want to have a talk with him instead of catching him off guard and surprising him with the conversation. Even if he’s not looking forward to it, he’d rather have a heads up than to be surprised. Wherever you are, make sure it’s not easy for you to be interrupted by your friends. If you feel like you really messed up, then you need to be open about it. Don’t just say, “I’m sorry that you’re mad because I…” and put the blame on him for overreacting. Instead, look him in the eyes, speak slowly, put away all distractions and say, “I’m truly sorry for what I did.” You can go into it and explain exactly how you feel and why you really messed up, and how much it hurts you to know that you hurt him. It depends on what you feel and what you’re willing to feel. Of course, if he’s the one who wronged you, you should avoid apologizing just to make things blow over, and should really think about whether you want him in...

Article in English: If you just have some mild algae buildup on the inside of your glass, it's pretty easy to wipe it off with a sponge. Be sure to use a clean sponge that will not introduce any chemicals or detergents into your aquarium. It's perfectly fine to do this while your fish are in the tank as long as you don't remove much of the water.  You can use a sponge with an abrasive side if you need a little extra scrubbing power. If you don't want to put your arm in the tank, you can find a scrubber with a long handle at your local aquarium store. If you just need to remove some tougher algae from the inside of your aquarium glass, it's easy to do with a scraper. Aquarium stores sell a special tool with a a scraper on one end and a brush on the other that is designed specially for this task.  Let the algae fall to the bottom of the tank as you are scraping and scrubbing. You can clean it up with an aquarium vacuum when you are finished. If the scraper is not working well enough, you can use a razor blade to scrape off the algae. Hold it at a 45 degree angle against the glass and scrape very carefully so as not to cut yourself. Do not empty the tank to do this. Removing more than 25% of the water from your aquarium can destroy the beneficial bacteria colonies that live there, which can cause your fish to die. If you don't want to stick your arm in the tank to clean the glass, there is another option. You can buy an aquarium magnet at your local pet or aquarium store, which will make this task much easier. The part of the magnet with the scrubbing pad goes on the inside of the glass, and the part with the handle goes on the outside. As you move the outside part around, the inside part will glide along the inside of your tank, cleaning the glass.  Be very careful not to bring your magnet within two inches of the sand or gravel at the bottom of the tank. If you get any abrasive materials stuck under the pad, you run the risk of scratching your glass. Be sure to rinse the cleaning pad after each use, and never leave the magnet in...

Article in English: If you just met someone that you clicked with, don’t wait to send them a text. The old rule that you should wait 3 days before contacting your crush is a myth. Text them within a day so that the fun time that you spent together is still fresh in their mind.  Even if you’ve known your crush for a while, if you had a great conversation or fun time together, don’t wait to text them and let them know how much you enjoyed it. Your first text message can be as simple as “I just wanted to say, I really enjoyed our conversation today.” Avoid texting your crush early in the morning or late at night, since you don’t want to wake them up. Late afternoon and early evening are usually the best times to text since your crush will likely be awake and finished with work or school. When your crush responds to your text, don’t write back immediately since it might make you seem overly eager. However, you shouldn’t wait too long to reply either, as it could make you seem rude or uninterested. In general, you should only delay responding to the first text. If you always keep your crush waiting, they may get impatient or doubt your interest.

Article in English: If you just moved to town, you may not know the area well. Do some research to see if there were any recent tragedies or accidents. Some people believe areas that have dark histories are more prone to hauntings.  You can look up the history of your town online. Try stopping by a local library that archives old newspapers. You may find some unusual stories there. Some websites allow you to enter your address and, for a fee, they will provide you with information about deaths that occurred in your home. You can also try simply searching for your address online. There may have been a news story if someone died in your home, or if a tragic event occurred there. You can hire professionals to do an energy audit of your home. This involves using a thermodynamic camera to check your home for dips in heat. A home with inexplicable dips in heat and uneven temperatures may be haunted.  Energy audits can sometimes find logical causes of dips in energy. This can allow you to fix problems in your home that cause things like drafts, slamming windows, and flickering lights. Stick to people like professional mechanics, who offer non-paranormal services. Paranormal investigators are not legitimate and will not provide a real service. There's a good chance there's a rational reason for drafts and cold spots that may require repairs that paranormal investigators cannot provide. If you just moved to a neighborhood, your house may have a reputation for being haunted. Ask your neighbors if they know of any paranormal activities in your home. Ask them if previous neighbors ever said anything about your home being haunted.

Article in English: If you just painted your nails, wipe it off using a hard, pointed object, like a cuticle pusher or a toothpick. If the nail polish won't come off, wait until it dries before continuing. Choose a brush with stiffer bristles, such as a lipstick brush. Make sure that you won't be using this brush for anything else again. You can also use acetone instead. It is harsher and more drying than nail polish remover, but it works faster. Try not to get the metal crimp wet, or the glue holding the bristles will melt. This is especially important if you are using acetone. You can do this by sweeping the bristles across the rim of the bottle. If you have too much nail polish remover on your brush, it may drip onto your nails and ruin your manicure. Always tilt your finger towards the brush. This will help keep the nail polish remover from dripping onto your manicure. For example, if you got nail polish on the left side of your finger, tilt your finger slightly to the left. If you get too much nail polish remover on your finger, it will drip down the side of your finger instead of onto your manicure. Fold a tissue in half, and wipe it around the cuticle area of your nail. This will pick up any residual nail polish remover. There are a few things you can do to prevent nail polish from getting on your fingers the next time you paint your nails. The most common are to outline your nails with Vaseline or white school glue. These create a barrier between your skin and the nail polish, making clean up a lot easier.  Use a Q-tip to apply Vaseline to the skin around your nails before starting your manicure. Once you are done painting your nails, wipe the Vaseline off with another Q-tip. Draw a thin line around your nails using white school glue. Let the glue dry, then paint your nails. Peel the dried glue off when you are done with your manicure.

Article in English: If you just want to share your comic with some friends and family, uploading it to an image host will be the cheapest (free) and easiest way to do it. Create an account with a service like PhotoBucket, ImageShack, or imgur and upload your creation. Send the links to whoever you want, post them on your social network feeds, tweet the URL to anyone who will read it. Find comic enthusiast forums and post your links for people all over the world to see. DeviantArt is one of the most popular places online for posting art. They have an entire section devoted to cartoons and comics. When you post your images, fans can leave comments, giving you a chance to interact with your audience. Interacting with other artists on DeviantArt can give you new ideas and perspectives on your own creations. If you feel like you have enough content to share with the world, start your own web comic page. This is the best way to grow an audience for your work without having to go through traditional publishing channels. It will require more time and dedication than simply using an image hosting service, but the benefits are far greater.  Create a website that looks good. If the website does not function properly and does not match the aesthetic of your comic, you will drive users away. Take some time and look at how successful web comics have integrated the style of the comic into the website design. Have your website designed professionally. This can be cheaper than you think, especially if you enlist the aid of up-and-coming designers. Use resources such as DeviantArt to find a like-minded person who will help you design your web comic page. Update often. The point of a web comic is to keep people coming back. Set a regular update schedule for yourself. If readers know when to expect the next release, they will often come back even without you advertising it. Interact with your readers.

Article in English: If you keep a closer eye on your remote in the future, you may be less likely to lose it. Try to be engaged and aware each time that you set your remote down. Take a mental snapshot of the device so that you remember where it is. Don't ever put the remote anywhere other than this place. It might be the coffee table, or next to the television, or in a dedicated "remote control holder" that is attached to your couch or table.  If you regularly lose the remote, consider buying a remote control holder so that you have a set place to put it. Apply a Velcro strip to the back of the remote, then attach the matching "opposite" Velcro strip to the TV. Keep the remote firmly attached to the Velcro strip on the TV when not in use. Attach a strip of brightly-colored tape, or a reflector, or a long, fuzzy tail. Tie a ribbon to the device, or give it wings, or glue plastic legs onto it. Add anything that you think will make it easier for you to notice and remember your remote! Try not to add anything that will impair the function of the device. These devices work with most brands of television, and they will free you from the need to keep a small fleet of easy-to-confuse remotes. It's easy to find yourself using separate remotes for your television, your DVD player, your sound system, and other devices. You may find that it is easier to keep track of one remote than it is to keep track of, say, four. Several companies now sell small, relatively inexpensive tracking devices that link up to a smartphone app. Clip the tracker to your television remote in case you ever lose it again. You can set your smartphone to beep when the remote is close. Some apps will even try to find your remote when it is far from you.

Article in English: If you keep a lot of music on your iPad, its likely taking up a sizable chunk of your storage space. iTunes Match is a paid service from Apple that allows you to stream your entire iTunes library to your iPad (or any other Apple device or computer). This can free up tons of space, as you'll no longer need to keep any music files stored on your iPad. Click here for instructions on setting it up.  There are some drawbacks to the service. Besides costing $25 per year, you'll only be able to stream when you have a network location. You can always download any of your songs to your iPad ahead of time if you're anticipating being without a network connection. iTunes Match allows you to upload songs that you didn't purchase through the iTunes Store. You can also use services like Google Play Music to upload and stream your music.

Remove any food products from the counter, and keep the cat's food bowl on the floor (while he's using it) or in the sink to deter him from climbing up on the counter. One of the best ways to keep your cat from climbing on the counter is to make the counter an unpleasant place for him.  Apply double-sided tape to one side of a plastic laminated placemat.  Lay the placemats across the counter.  Over time, your cat will come to associate the counter with the unpleasant experience of walking on tape. Cats love to climb, mostly because they enjoy being elevated off the ground. It's possible that the kitchen counters are the highest "perch" your cat can reach. Give him other climbing options, like a cat "condo," which you can set up anywhere in the house and offer your cat a satisfying climbing and perching experience. If your cat insists on climbing up on the counters whenever you are preparing food in the kitchen, keep your cat confined in a bedroom or bathroom, if at all possible. This will keep him from climbing and interfering with your kitchen plans. Let your cat out of confinement once you're finished cooking/preparing food.

Article in English: If you keep getting into trouble because your phone bill is too high or you get bad grades, strive to change your behavior to demonstrate that you can be trusted. Make a pledge to yourself to keep your phone bill under control, for example, and track your usage for the month. Point out in a humble way that you have changed your behavior. Show them your phone bill when it is well under your limit. Sometimes it’s not worth using energy to fight over something small. When you constantly fight over things, from what to eat to when you have to be home, you and your parents get “battle fatigue.” Choose the most important things to put up a fight over, and let the smaller things go. If your parents don’t understand things you like to do, give them an introduction to these things. Take them to the new skate park, for example, or have them listen to your new music. Tell them what you really like about an activity or hobby. Getting them involved in your life will help them understand you better. You might want to spend more time with your friends, but spending quality time with your parents is a good way to connect. Schedule a few times a week to have short conversations when you can catch up and tell your parents about your day. Plan a special time at least once a month when you do an activity together, such as going for a hike or working on a hobby or project. As with anyone whose relationship you value, be thoughtful and treat your parents kindly. Do special favors for them or leave a nice note for them.

Article in English: If you keep your Venus flytrap outside, it will catch spiders and insects on its own (unless your outdoor environment is unnaturally sterile). When you see the leaves in a clasped position, the Venus flytrap has probably caught something. If you want to feed the Venus flytrap - either because you're keeping it indoors or you just want to experience the excitement of watching it eat - you can use mealworms, insects or spiders that are small enough to fit in the leaf traps. Place the food inside one of the traps or release it inside the terrarium. The trap will close when the tiny hairs inside are triggered by the insect's movements.  It's best to feed a Venus flytrap live bugs. The plant won’t close unless it senses movement, so feeding the plant dead bugs is not a good idea.  You can purchase live or dead insects from a pet store, but you could also try catching your own. For smaller Venus flytraps, black flies are a good size. For larger traps, you could try small  crickets. Venus flytraps can go months without eating, but if you're keeping yours indoors you should plan to feed it about once a month for best results. Once the Venus flytrap closes over its food, it takes at least 12 hours to digest its meal. Digestive enzymes break down the soft inner fluids of the insect or spider, leaving the exoskeleton intact. After about 12 hours, the trap will open and the empty exoskeleton will blow or wash away. If a small stone or another indigestible object ends up in the trap, it will release the object after 12 hours. You might be tempted to give the Venus flytrap a piece of ham or chicken, however, the plant does not have the right enzymes to digest animal meat. Feeding it anything besides spiders or insects could cause it to rot and die.

Article in English: If you keep your eggs in the refrigerator, it's important that you don't try to cook them cold. Eggs crack because gases heat and expand within the shell. When the pressure becomes too great, the gases escape by cracking weak points in the porous shell. Bringing eggs to room temperature before cooking slows down that process. If you don't want to wait for the eggs to warm up naturally, try soaking them in hot tap water for a few minutes before cooking. When an egg is fresh, the the outer membrane sticks to the egg shell while the inner membrane sticks to the albumen (the "white"). As an egg ages, these membranes adhere more closely to the shell itself. Before you submerge an egg, prick the large end of the shell with a clean thumbtack or safety pin. This will allow the trapped air bubbles—which are normally responsible for cracking—to escape during the boiling process. Stack the eggs very gently to avoid cracking. Don't overcrowd the pot—you should only boil one layer of eggs at a time, and they should not be pressing against each other. If you try to boil too many eggs at once, some of them may crack from the weight.  Test whether your eggs are fresh by placing them into a bowl of saltwater. If the egg sinks to the bottom, it's fresh. If it floats to the top, there's a good chance that it has gone bad. Lay a folded cheesecloth inside the bottom of the pot. This helps cushion the eggs so that they are less likely to crack. Fill the pot gently with at least one inch (3 cm) of water. Pour the water against the side of the pan so that it does not disturb the eggs. If you cannot avoid pouring the water onto the eggs, steady them with your hand so that they do not slide around and crack.  Add half a teaspoon of salt to the water. This makes the eggs easier to peel, and it may help prevent them from cracking. Salted water helps to make the egg white firm up more quickly. It also helps plug small leaks if the shell cracks during the cooking process. Never drop eggs directly into a pot of hot water, or the shells...

Article in English: If you keep your feet clean, unpleasant odors are less likely to rub off on your shoes. Bacteria in feet can multiple fast, so always remember to wash your feet thoroughly in the shower.  Lather your feet up with soap. Scrub them thoroughly, targeting dirty areas in particular, and then rinse with water. When you get out of the shower, make sure to completely dry your feet. Your shoes need a chance to dry off completely. Moist shoes are more susceptible to odor-causing bacteria. Rotate which shoes you wear each day. Foot powder can help reduce foot sweat. This can lead to less odor being built up in your shoes. Try sprinkling some foot powder on your feet prior to wearing your shoes each day. Socks can help provide a barrier between your feet and shoes. Make sure to wear a fresh pair of socks each day. Wearing socks regularly can help eliminate unpleasant smells in shoes.

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: If you keep your marks relatively light, then they won’t be noticeable even under the lightest of paint. Some people prefer to go over their pencil outline with a fine brush or fine tip marker as well. Before you finalize your drawing with marker, make sure that the design is symmetrical, if that is what you are going for. Check that the toes, heels, and sides are mirror images. Before you start painting, find a flat, steady table and cover it entirely with craft paper or newspaper. This will keep you from ruining your work surface in the event that you have a few paint drips or spills.  You can also cut open brown paper grocery bags and secure them around the top and edges of the table. Be careful using newspaper if you are working with white or light fabric shoes. The newsprint can leave black smudges on the fabric. This isn’t always an option, but if you have a cheap pair of shoes lying around then practice your technique on them. This gives you a chance to see if the paint is the right texture and color for what you want. You can even buy a pair of thrift store shoes to use as your practice pair. For natural leather shoes, soak a cotton ball in rubbing alcohol and gently rub this over the surface of the shoes. For manmade leather shoes, soak a cotton ball in acetone and wipe the shoes down. If you are painting cloth shoes that are a bit dirty, wipe them down with a rag soaked in warm water and soap. This should remove any debris from the surface of the shoe and help the paint to adhere.  Let your shoes thoroughly dry after cleaning before attempting to paint. Make sure that you use 100% acetone for cleaning, not a mixed nail polish remover. Patent leather shoes are known for their shiny appearance, but it’s difficult for paint to stick to this surface. Get a fine grade sandpaper and rub over the surface of the shoe, moving in small circles. Continue until the shoe takes on a dull appearance. Look over your shoes and make sure that your sanding is even from all angles. Otherwise, you may get an uneven...

Article in English: If you keep your rabbit inside, you can choose one room to let your bunny run around in. This room should have a litter box, a hay feeder, food dishes, and water bowl in one area. Place a mat under it to protect it from messes. Inside the room, you can set up cardboard castles, bunny condos, puppy pens, or rabbit cages. Rabbits chew constantly. If you are going to let your bunny run around a room, you need to protect your bunny by covering up wires or removing them. Hide and protect electrical cords with hard plastic tubing split lengthwise with the cords tucked inside inside. You can also tuck cords behind wood work or trim, wrap them in spiral wrap, or use concealers to keep them out of sight. Rabbits will chew on trim, door edges, and furniture legs. They may also chew wallpaper, sheetrock, and carpet. Place a board over any places that your bunny may want to chew. Place cardboard or 2x4s under furniture so the rabbit doesn’t burrow up into the soft underside of it. You can also place clear plastic panels over the wall to keep the rabbit from chewing on it. Watch your bunny carefully when she is running around the room and give her an acceptable chewing object if she tries to go after furniture or part of the house. To help deter your rabbit from chewing things she shouldn’t, you should provide plenty of things for the rabbit to chew on. These include alfalfa cubes, grass hay stuffed in cardboard tubes, fresh branches (apple, willow or aspen only), or rolled up cotton towels.

Article in English: If you kept any souvenirs from your summer vacation — like pictures, plane tickets, or a diary — use these to help you with your essay. Looking back on your mementos will help you remember details from your summer, making writing the essay much easier. These can also make nice visual aids if you are asked to present your essay. When trying to write an essay on your summer vacation, it’s helpful to first write a list of the things you did. Once you create a list, it’ll be easier to remember specific details about each event or moment. Start from the beginning of the summer and brainstorm all of the things you did. A list might be full of things like babysitting, attending a camp, working at a local store, taking a road trip, etc. This type of brainstorming can help you pick major events and other important moments from your summer. It’s going to be difficult to talk about everything you did over summer vacation, so try to narrow in on one moment. The moment doesn’t have to be super exciting or full of action, it just needs to be important to you. For example, maybe you spent your summer traveling around Japan. Think of a memorable moment you had while traveling — maybe you walked up a mountain in the pouring rain — and write about this moment, adding lots of details. for your essay. Once you've picked the specific moment you want to talk about, write down the details of this moment. Organize your ideas by putting them in order of how you're going to write about them.  For example, if you're writing about spending time at the beach, your outline could remind you to talk about the sandcastle building contest you entered, the dolphins you saw, and the ice cream you ate every day. Details might be what the other sandcastles looked like, how far away the dolphins were, and what kind of toppings were on your ice cream. Your outline is just to help you organize your thoughts — it can be written by hand or typed.

Article in English: If you know a few things about the girl before you talk to her—without being too much of a spy—then it can actually help you start that first conversation. Without making it too obvious, you can ask some people who know her what she’s like, or even briefly look through her Facebook profile to get some more ideas about who she is. This can give you more topics to casually mention or can give you an idea of where to steer your first conversation. That said, you probably shouldn’t mention that you’ve been asking other people about her or scrolling through her Facebook profile. You don’t want her to think that you’ve been watching her a little too closely. The first move you have to make in order to get your friendship going is to introduce yourself to the girl. You don’t have to be too aggressive about it or act like you’re dying to be BFF with the girl. Just say hi, tell her what your name is, and ask her how she’s doing. Make sure you find her at a good time, when she doesn’t seem busy or worried over anything, and that you act casual about it.  Just say something like, “Hi, I’m Sarah. It’s great to meet you. What’s your name?” And take it from there. Don’t ask her too many questions or tell her too much about yourself right away or she will get overwhelmed. Take it easy and give your friendship time to blossom. Try to find a time when the girl is by herself so you have her attention. If you try to talk to her while she’s with too many other people, you may not make as much of an impression. Once you start talking to the girl, you can begin to ask her things about herself so you get to know her a bit. The truth is that, when it comes to making friends, it’s more important to be interested than to be interesting. Instead of worrying about impressing her with all of your funny jokes or cool stories, focus on showing a real interest in who she is. Just make sure she asks some questions back so she doesn’t feel like she’s being interrogated. Here are some things you can ask her about:  Her hobbies Her family Her...

Постарайтесь собрать информацию заранее. Представьтесь. Задавайте вопросы. Расскажите о себе. Сделайте комплимент. Стремитесь понять личность девушки. Предложите встретиться.


Article in English: If you know for a fact that the guy you like likes you back, that should give you all the confidence in the world. Most people aren't sure at all, or maybe have a hunch. So act confident, because confidence is attractive. It will make a difference. Before you ask him, tell yourself that you already have the hardest part under control: You've gotten him to like you. Now you just have to act on that attraction. This gets easier as time goes on. The hardest part is the first time you tell him; everything after that is a downhill ride. Giving him hints might even cause him to be more confident and act on his attraction and ask you out!   Compliment him about something he does well, but teasingly. This will come off flirty and won't bother him because he won't be insecure about something he's really good at: "If I would have known that you'd single-handedly destroy the other football team, I wouldn't have come. I like a little excitement, okay?!"  Tell him how much you appreciate him. Being a little sarcastic is good, but being sincere is even better: "Hey, thanks for helping me out with that birthday celebration. You make a pretty great friend. Always stay that way."  Pick him up when he's down. He might not show it the same way that other people show it, but try to recognize when he's not feeling his best: "Don't worry about Felix, okay? He's a jerk and he knows it. Don't let it hurt your confidence. You're way better than him anyway." Chances are you're gotten close enough to him that you're experimented a little with touching him in safe places. If you've already done that, great. If you haven't, try some of these little tricks to communicate your affection before you actually come out and say it.  Learn to touch his hand, arm, and shoulder. When you're making a point, reach over and casually touch his hand. When you're reminding him of something or trying to be really serious, touch his arm or the back of his shoulder. It should send shivers down his spine. Hang or rest on his shoulder. Pretend to be bored...

Summary in Russian:

Напомните себе о том, какой уверенной в себе вы должны быть. Продолжайте флиртовать с ним. Сломайте барьер прикосновений, если вы еще не сделали этого.


Article in English: If you know it is going to be hot and sunny, make sure you have sunscreen and water. If there is a chance of thunderstorms later on you can still go swimming. However, make sure you have a plan for inclement weather, such as shelter to get under, and that everyone you're with knows where to meet if you hear thunder. The dreaded swimmer's cramp is caused when your body is both trying to digest food and exert itself to stay afloat. Avoid this by avoiding large meals, particularly greasy, fatty foods like hamburgers, cheese, etc. that take a long time to digest.  This doesn't mean you need to swim hungry. Rather, try to graze and eat lightly over time instead of loading up on one big meal. For example, eat a banana. It gives you extra potassium and energy! UV radiation still penetrates cloud cover, so don't assume you're fine just because the sun isn't shining. Make sure you are using a waterproof "sport" sunscreen that won't wash off as soon as you get in the water. Remember to NOT put any kind of moisturizer before swimming. Your swim cap and goggles can easily fall off.  While swimming, reapply sunscreen every 30 minutes to prevent burning. If you're going to change at the pool or beach, you should consider an extra shirt or pair of underwear as well, in case your dry clothes accidentally get wet. If you want goggles, be sure to pack them as well. It doesn't matter where you're swimming, it is always a good idea to have drinkable water on hand. Dehydration causes exhaustion, grumpiness, and, when left untreated, serious health issues. It seems obvious, but make sure you have drinkable water before you go into the water.  At the very least, aim to drink 16oz or more of water in the hour leading up to your swim. 1 water bottle per person should be good for 1-2 hours of activity. To be safest as you pack, just assume that everything you bring is going to get wet. If you are taking things like your mobile phone that can't get wet, take them in a separate small bag, pockets of your clothes or a waterproof bag...

Article in English: If you know she is willing, you can slowly run your hand along the top of her leg then down along her thigh. This can be more of a sexual move that leads to more, or you can just touch her thighs for the sake of it. You should be pretty familiar with each other for you to try this move, though. Don't think she'll be okay with it just because you've reached the kissing phase. When you're caressing her thigh, use a light touch instead of a squeezing motion, or she may feel a little overwhelmed. Stand behind the woman, move her hair to the side, and kiss the back of her neck while you move an arm to the bend of her waist and move your fingers up and down there gently, like you're kneading her. This is a place where women —as long as you're on intimate terms — really love to be touched. Women love to be hugged and to feel the gentle affection of a man's love. You can embrace your woman for a long time, but you should keep things interesting. Without getting too handsy and moving your hands too much, you can place one hand on the small of her back and gently move it up and down. This will make your woman feel loved, and if she's upset, this will help reassure her. You can also place your hand on the small of her back when you're walking somewhere to lead her forward. Women love to be touched like this too. If you're sitting down and holding hands, you can gently stroke the inside of her wrist. This is a very sensitive area and she will definitely feel a tinge of pleasure when you touch her here. You can even trace a circle around her palm and then make your way down to her wrist. Then, you can even stroke her forearms and up to the crooks of her elbows. Just make sure she doesn't feel ticklish — if she does, then she won't be feeling much pleasure. You want to keep your touch light but meaningful. Tracing the area of her spine above her lower back, up to her neck, and back down again can definitely make a woman feel more than a bit of pleasure. This is a very intimate gesture and it'll really send the message if...

Ласкайте ее бедра. Ласкайте изгиб ее талии. Ласкайте ее поясницу во время объятий. Поглаживайте внутреннюю часть ее запястья. Нежно проведите рукой по ее спине. Ласкайте ее пупок.


Article in English: If you know that Grandpa Joe always likes to get on your case about "kids these days" make sure that you attend the family reunion with a pocketful of facts about the good your generation is doing, the hardships your generation faces compared to his, and so on.  You can't always count on being fully prepared for an argument ahead of time, but there are some things you can do to make it more likely that you come out on top in an on-the-spot argument. If there are certain subjects that are important to you make sure you know as much about them as possible. This way, even if you're not prepared for a specific argument, should one arise, you'll have the facts to back up your side of things. Make sure that you understand how to set up a compelling argument (see the section about making your case). You want to avoid falling into certain argument fallacies. Your argument is going to be different based on the people who are participating in the argument and the people who are listening to it. The fewer people to deal with, the easier you'll have it, because you won't have to try to figure in so many different argument types. For example: to go back to your Grandpa Joe, you wouldn't want to engage in a loud and angry argument with him in front of all your relatives. This will make him less likely to back down no matter how asinine his side of the argument is. Instead, you might talk to him in a more private setting without all the family members around watching you. The person who loses their temper or their hold on their emotions first is the person who loses the argument. It doesn't matter how good your facts are, because you're out of control and more likely to make a mistake.  Take deep breaths when you feel your temper or emotions rising. This is also why it's important to listen carefully when the other person is talking. If you can focus on what they're saying and take a moment to consider your rebuttal, you're less likely to respond with an immediate knee-jerk emotional reaction. This was a favorite tactic of...

Summary in Russian:

Подготовьтесь заранее. Знайте свою аудиторию. Сохраняйте спокойствие. Задавайте вопросы. Подражайте другому человеку. Не предполагайте, что вы знаете, каковы аргументы оппонента. Отвлекайте оппонента от его позиции.


Article in English: If you know that the weather will be rainy, choose an area that you can enjoy in the rain, such as a trek through the forest. Consider visibility and safety, since waterways can flood and rocks can become slippery. When in doubt, plan to keep your hiking short and bed down early. Each time you open your pack water drips in. Even if it’s only a small amount of water, it can quickly compromise your pack. The water will remain in your waterproofed pack for the entire trek, so don’t risk lugging around the unnecessary weight. Store frequently needed items and your snacks in pockets or in dry bags attached to the outside of your pack. If you don’t have a waterproof map, then make sure that your map never gets wet. Ideally, it should be secured in a plastic see-through bag. Try not to remove it when it’s exposed to rain. Regularly munching on snacks will help you keep your body warmer, which is important when you’re getting wet. Rain can cause hypothermia if you get too cool, so plan to eat more often than on a dry hike. The wetness from your socks can rub away your natural skin oils, which is what causes blisters. Applying a light salve to your feet can help prevent this from happening. Carry a salve and smooth it onto your feet when you settle in for the night. When it’s raining, some hikers forget to drink their water. Even if you don’t feel thirsty, make sure that you’re sipping on your water to keep yourself hydrated. Dehydration can quickly become an issue. Rainy weather makes breaks less desirable because it allows your body to cool down, causing you to be cold and uncomfortable. You also have the incentive to keep going until you reach your destination and can get out of the rain. However, not taking breaks can easily tire you out. Stay energized by taking shorter breaks than you normally would but more often. For example, if you would normally take a 15-minute break after hiking for an hour and a half, take a five-minute break every 30 minutes. When you do stop to camp, keep your wet items separate from...
