Article in English: Double click on a line in the Layers panel to open a Layer Styles window for that layer. Try adding a frame with “stroke” or a shadow with “drop shadow,” or playing around with other options. Don't click the layer name itself, or you'll just be typing in a new name. Click the space next to it. Use the Image → Adjustments menu or the Adjustments panel tools. Play around with these, using Ctrl+Alt+Z to undo. You can use adjustments to make the image brighter, alter the color balance, and sharpen the image, among other options.

You can change this by right clicking on the adjustment in the Layers panel and selecting "Create Clipping Mask." This applies the adjustment to only the layer beneath it. Explore the Filter top menu and play around with the tools. Try the tools listed under Artistic, Brush-stroke, Distort, Sketch, Stylize, or Texture. To make the image stylistically blurry, use the Noise, Pixelate, Render, Sharpen or Blur filters. Press T on your keyboard, or click the T symbol on the Tools panel. Drag your cursor over the image to make a text box. Type in your text. Adjust the font size and appearance by highlighting your text and altering the values in the top tool bar. Move the text box by dragging the dots at the edge of the box.  There is no spell check. To check spelling, you'll need to copy-paste to a text editing program or online spell check. Once you're done, click the black cursor tool to return to the default move tool.

Article in English: Double-cleansing produces brilliant results: first you cleanse with an oil, then with your normal facial cleanser, maximizing the benefits of each to your skin.  Apply four drops of argan oil to your face and rub gently in circular motions with your finger tips. Massage for 60 seconds and wipe off with a disposable facial cleansing cloth. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry. Wash your face a second time with your preferred facial cleanser, rinse well, and pat dry. Add several drops of argan oil to your preferred facial toner, making sure to shake vigorously to emulsify the oil before each use. Spray as normal. Argan oil is a "dry oil," and it is easily absorbed by the skin, so it gives those who use it to moisturize a glowing complexion. Add a dab of argan oil to your normal portion of facial moisturizer, tinted sunscreen, or liquid foundation, mix with your fingertips, and apply to your face as normal. Rather than using an alcohol-based aftershave, use a drop of argan oil to moisturize and soothe recently shaved skin on your face and elsewhere.  Apply a moist, hot towel to your face, legs, or underarms to keep the pores open. Warm a drop, or a few, in your fingertips and gently massage into skin. Moisturizing at night with argan oil will have a pronounced restorative effect, giving your skin a healthy look, especially over time.  Apply argan to your face before bedtime. Cover the facial coat of argan oil with a normal night cream once your skin has absorbed the oil. Conventional face masks can be even more rejuvenating by adding a small amount of argan oil.  Add a few drops of argan oil to your conventional face mask. Apply the mask with the argan oil mixed in as directed. Use argan oil to treat lips—especially when cracked or chapped.  Rub two to three drops onto your lips and wipe away any excess. Apply regularly to keep lips conditioned and prevent chapped lips in the winter.

Summary in Russian:

Дважды умойте лицо: Тонизируйте лицо с помощью арганового масла. Увлажните лицо, добавив немного арганового масла в косметические средства. Используйте аргановое масло в качестве лосьона после бритья. Увлажняйте кожу аргановым маслом на ночь. Используйте аргановое масло в качестве маски. Нанесите аргановое масло на губы.

You can view your current coordinates in game by pressing F3, Fn+F3 (laptops and Macs), or Alt+Fn+F3 (newer Macs). Press the / key on your keyboard to do so. Type teleport name x y z into the console, replacing "name" with your username, "x" with the east/west coordinate to which you want to travel, "y" with the vertical coordinate, and "z" with the north/south coordinate.

Article in English: Downplaying your successes and maintaining an even perspective in the world will keep you happy, humble, and will earn respect from people. Let your actions speak for themselves and let people come to their own conclusions about your skills and talents. Don't trumpet your own horn, let other people trumpet it for you. Remind yourself that actions speak louder than words. You won't need to play up your abilities if you show them through your actions. For example, a person who fixes people's computers doesn't have to tell everyone that they have excellent computer skills. Everyone's got an opinion about everything, but that doesn't mean you've always got to share it. Sit back and let other people talk while you listen sometimes, especially if your tendency is to chatter. Take in the perspectives and offer yours if you have anything to add to the discussion. If you don't, keep quiet.  Sitting back and letting other people talk will also give you a leg up by allowing them to reveal themselves to you, giving you the opportunity to understand them and relate to them a little better. If you're a quiet person, learn to speak out when you've got something to add. Don't let humility and a desire to be a stony stoic get in the way of you sharing your perspective. People won't respect you for that. Just as you wouldn't say one thing and do another if you want to earn people's respect, you've got to be consistent in your actions. Finish what you start. We all screw up sometimes. If you do, own up to it and maintain the respect that you've cultivated for yourself.  If you can do something by yourself, don't ask for help. On the other hand, you should ask for help when you really need it. This shows people that you're humble and know your limits. It also shows that you're open to being vulnerable with others. This will gain people's respect. Nobody will respect a doormat. If you don't want to do something, say so. If you've got a dissenting opinion and know in your heart that you're right, say so. Being assertive in a...

Article in English: Dozens of studies have named the sun the No. 1 cause of wrinkles. One study even found that sun exposure was more important than heredity in determining wrinkles.  Best stick to the shade!  If you must go out in the sun, ensure that you’re covered up: wear sunglasses, a hat, and at least SPF 30 sunscreen. Particularly avoid going out in the sun between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., when its rays are at their strongest. If you do smoke, here’s another reason to quit: many studies have confirmed that cigarette smoke ages skin; it does this primarily by releasing an enzyme that breaks down collagen and elastin, which are important to keeping your skin looking young. Excess alcohol consumption can damage blood vessels in the skin. It can also harm the liver, which can cause wrinkles. When you’re dehydrated, your wrinkles can appear deeper. Staying well-hydrated will keep your skin looking healthy. If you’re unsure of how much water you should be drinking, divide your body weight (in pounds) in half: that’s how many ounces of water you should drink each day.  A 150-pound woman should drink 75 ounces of water each day. If you exercise or live in a hot climate (i.e. if you sweat a lot), you’ll need to increase your water intake. A reliable way to tell if you're getting enough water is by paying attention to your urine: if it’s bright yellow or has a strong smell, you’re likely not getting enough water. Some doctors have linked inflammation to poor skin quality (including wrinkles) as well as diseases such as cancer and heart disease. Eat a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, raw nuts, whole grains, and lean proteins. Avoid foods that contain a lot of sugar — particularly processed foods. Antioxidants such as vitamin E, C, A, and B are essential for healthy skin. To ensure that you get enough of these vitamins, eat 5 to 7 servings of fresh fruits and vegetables each day.  Some recommendations in case you’re unsure of where to start: tomatoes, citrus, green leafy vegetables, and carrots.  In addition to eating foods rich in...

Article in English: Dr. Alwin Lewis, says that drinking plenty fluid is an important part of his diet: It will help you to keep feeling full and hydrated. Even if it’s diet soda, it’s okay – just keep those calories to a big fat zero. . He recommends a breakfast every morning of a big cup of black coffee and a "juicy" multi-vitamin. His school of thought points out that the body goes into a fasted mode at night, and the longer you can extend this state, the more weight you’ll lose. This is where it comes down to you, as this is a modified fasting technique. You could eat 5 bites of lettuce, 5 bites of lobster Thermidor, or you could eat 5 bites of a Snickers bar (Dr. Alwin explains that a Snickers is the easiest way to set your 'hungerstat'). To see the most healthy success, vary these five bites as a meal – three bites of a hamburger, plus two bites of an apple, for example. Bite sizes will vary per person- General rule of thumb, if your bite takes more than 1 swallow it is too big of a bite.  Taking a multivitamin daily will help your body receive the nutrients you might miss from eating less food. On average people do not get the recommended daily vitamins, so taking a vitamin is always best! Make sure that you have at least one bite of protein a day. Dinner has the exact same stipulations as lunch: 5 bites of any variety of foods. One of the goals of this diet is to make your choices fairly monotonous, eat your five bites and move on. Find other activities to fill your time.  Your stomach will adjust to the amount of food you are now eating, your hunger stat will be set!, . One of the reasons people tend to like this diet is that it allows anything. You could eat five bites of cheesecake, cookies and ice cream, if you so desired, as long as you stick to your 5 bites per meal! Dr. Lewis acknowledges that the low amount of food does not furnish your body enough of the vitamins and mineral micro-nutrients it needs to maintain and to function, especially over a long period of time. Because of this, he advocates that all dieters...

Article in English: Drag your finger across the front of the fish tank or bowl. If she moves towards it, reward her quickly with a treat. If she does not notice you, shake your finger until she notices. Move your finger in multiple directions. First, move your finger to opposite sides of the tank. Next, move your finger vertically up and down. Reward your fish each time she follows you.  Train her for three to five minutes at a time over several days. Proceed to other tricks once she consistently follows your finger.  Once your betta can follow your finger, teaching other tricks will be easier. When a male betta sees another male in nature, he flares. Flaring consists of a betta stretching her fins and opening her gills as much as she can. Bettas then look twice their size. You can teach your male or female fish to do this pretty trick. Flaring provides exercise, prevents boredom, and promotes bubble nest building. Bubble nest building consists of male bettas methodically blowing small bubbles in clusters on the water's surface. Only perform the flare trick three to five minutes a day or you can overexert your betta. Follow these steps:  Gather a small mirror and a red or black-capped pen. Use the same colored pen throughout training so your betta will recognize the pen. Place the mirror in front of the tank. Once your betta flares, place the pen next to the mirror. Repeat this process two to three more times. Sometimes your betta will get afraid, and may move away. Keep on trying. Once your betta instantly starts to flare, remove the mirror and leave only the pen. Give your betta food or a treat each time she flares. Continue until your betta flares each time you show the pen. Jumping is a natural habit for betta fish. To train your betta, use a feeding stick and place half a bloodworm on it. The food should be within reach of the fish. Starting with the stick underwater, have your betta come to you. With the next try, move the feeding stick closer to the water's surface. Have your betta swim to you. Then move the stick to the...

Article in English: Dragon fruits, unlike many other fruits, do not ripen as much after harvest and as a result should be harvested when they are almost fully ripe.  Once the color of the fruit has changed from green to yellow or red, then it is ready to harvest. The small leaves on the sides of the fruit (also known as the “wings”) will also start to fade or turn brown as the fruit ripens. You can also determine the ripeness by counting the days after the plant flowers. Typically the fruit is ripe a minimum of 27 to 33 days after the plant flowers. Proper time of harvesting is four days after the color of the fruit changes. For export purpose, however, it is important to harvest slightly sooner, a day after the color changes. You can remove the thorns by using pliers, brushing them off, or with gloves. When the fruit is ripe the needles should begin to shed anyways, and as a result they should not be too difficult to remove. However, you should always wear gloves and be cautious because the needles are very sharp. When a dragon fruit is ripe and ready to be harvested, it will detach from the plant easily by twisting a few times. If you have to pull too hard on the fruit then it is likely not ready to be harvested. Do not wait until the dragon fruit has fallen off the plant. This means that the fruit is overripe.

Summary in Russian:

Собирайте плоды незадолго до полного созревания. Удалите шипы с фруктов перед сбором. Сорвите плод с ветви, повернув его рукой.


Article in English: Dragons actually like to be held. Wait three to four days after the dragon’s arrival to start holding him. Wash your hands before and after handling the pet. Begin by holding him for short periods multiple times a day. This helps build trust slowly.  When holding your dragon, strive to have a quiet setting.  Babies, young children, women who are or might be pregnant, the elderly, or people with weakened immune systems should be careful about touching the dragon or being near its home. Salmonella infections can occur. Consult a doctor if you or your child belongs to one of these populations before allowing contact with the reptile. See Hold a Bearded Dragon for thorough tips. Gather your dragon from underneath his body in a slow, yet self-assured, scooping motion. Support his whole body plus his legs and tail. Do not hold or pull your dragon by his tail. It can come off! It is important to tame your dragon from the beginning. If your dragon appears aggressive (his “beard” will darken), hold him tightly (not too tightly) with both of your hands and pet him. If your pet appears particularly agitated, release him for a short moment and then try holding him again until he calms himself. Training your dragon to be held and calm can take a number of months but it is vital to creating a good relationship with your dragon.

Изучите правильный подход. Возьмите агаму в руки. Успокойте агаму.


Article in English: Drain the remaining water out of the tank through a sieve into the sink. This will prevent any gravel from falling down the drain. Remove any decor that is in the tank as well. You can simply set it on top of the gravel in the sieve. Fold the gravel with your hand and shake it side to side to get the dirt, poo, and left over food out. Use your hands to do it really thoroughly. Use a soft scrubber to scrub the glass. Dry the decor well with a paper towel and put it to the side. Never use soap on anything in a fish tank, including the tank itself. The residue is likely to remain and hurt your betta. Place the gravel and plants back into the tank before you refill it. Then pour new water into the tank and condition it. Follow the directions on the package of conditioner to determine how much conditioner to put in your fish's tank.  Use a plastic spoon to stir the water, making sure that the conditioner is mixed into the new water thoroughly. Remember to reserve enough room for the original water that you took out of the tank. Pour the old water you reserved back into the tank once the new water has been conditioned. Stir it all together well. The tank water must be the same temperature as the water was before, and should be between 72 to 80 °F (22 to 27 °C). Your fish WILL die from stress if you change the temperature too quickly. Water coming to room temperature could take a while. Check the water after 24 hours using a thermometer to make sure the water temperature matches the ambient temperature in the room. If it is not room temperature, wait a few more hours and then check it again. Slowly put the cup (where you kept your betta) into the tank and tilt the cup a bit. Your betta will slowly come out of the cup by itself. Be gentle while you're doing this, as you might hurt it's fins. Keep an eye on the betta. Once you let it go, it'll soon start exploring the tank. Set your tank back to where it was and enjoy as it swims around observing everything!

Article in English: Drain the rice in a colander or cook uncovered at low heat for a few minutes to evaporate the water. Add a little more water (just to produce more steam) and cook covered for a few more minutes. Run cold water on the outside of the pot (be ready for steam clouds) to stop the rice cooking. Remove the good rice from the center. Use less water (a 1.5:1 or 1.75:1 ratio of water:rice) and/or reduce the cooking time. Boil the rice uncovered for half the necessary cooking time, then remove it from the heat entirely and cover with a tightly fitting lid. The steam should finish cooking the rice in 10–15 minutes with no risk of burning.

Article in English: Drain the shucked oysters and reserve the liquid. Use a sharp kitchen knife to rough chop the oysters into smaller pieces.  Use a container of pre-shucked oysters for this recipe instead of fresh oysters. The actual oysters will be filtered out of the sauce later, so you do not need to worry about cutting them into precise sizes. Making them smaller can help release the flavor faster, though, which is why chopping the oysters beforehand is generally a good idea. Place the chopped oysters in a small saucepan with the reserved oyster juice and 1 Tbsp (15 ml) of water. Place the saucepan on the stove and heat it on high until the liquid reaches a steady, rolling boil. Stir the contents of the saucepan occasionally to prevent the oysters from sticking to the bottom of the pan. Reduce the heat to medium-low, allowing the liquid to drop to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the saucepan during this time. You do not need to stir the mixture inside, but you should make sure that the liquid remains at a steady simmer. Adjust the heat settings as necessary. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Sprinkle in 1/4 tsp (1.25 ml) of salt and stir well to combine. Pour the contents of the saucepan through a sieve or strainer. Save the liquid and discard the solid ingredients.  If you want to save the cooked oysters, you can do so by transferring them to a plastic or glass container with an airtight lid. Place the container in the refrigerator and store the oysters for up to four days. Pour the liquid portion of the mixture back into your saucepan after filtering out the solids. Add 2 to 4 Tbsp (30 to 60 ml) light soy sauce to the mixture and stir well. Pour 1/2 to 1 Tbsp (7.5 to 15 ml) dark soy sauce into the mixture and stir it in, as well.  Using both light and dark soy sauces will give the taste of the oyster sauce more depth, but if you only have one type of soy sauce on hand, simply use a full 2-1/2 to 5 Tbsp (37.5 to 75 ml) of that soy sauce, instead. If you aren't sure about how much soy sauce...

If needed, repeat the shaving process over areas that need more work, and then rinse off again. Always rinse off before shaving again. Minimize clogging your razor with hairs that have already been shaved, or being fooled into thinking that they are hairs you missed the first time. Prevent any nicks or other infections from becoming infected. If possible, use body wash with tea tree oil and/or witch hazel as ingredients, which will help soothe and heal your skin. Exfoliate again with a loofa, rubbing your legs gently in soft circles. Use a clean towel to prevent bacteria from infecting cuts and other irritations. Pat your legs dry with the towel. Avoid rubbing them, which can further irritate sensitive areas. Rub an antiseptic post-shave conditioner into your skin. Destroy any possible bacteria that may still linger in sensitive areas. Moisture your skin to help it recuperate.  Use a moisturizer designed specifically for men. Since men’s skin typically produces more natural oils than women’s, using women’s products may lead to clogged pores. Continue to moisturize your skin daily to avoid irritation as your hairs grow back. Now that your legs are shaved, check how they look in natural light. If your leg hair was quite dark and your skin is pale or fair, consider using a self-tanner in the short term, since the contrast may now be striking. If you’re going to keep your legs shaved for the long term, consider sunning them regularly.
