Article in English: Sanding is generally considered the best way to remove stains from suede. An emery board, a common type of nail file, is convenient and will also work well for this method. An emery board is essentially a small strip of fine-grit sandpaper glued to a piece of cardboard. You can buy inexpensive emery boards from most grocery stores, pharmacies, and beauty shops. While sandpaper is relatively safe for suede, it may not be right for all items. Some processing and dyeing methods may make suede more prone to damage from friction. To make sure sanding won't ruin the suede, do the following before tackling your stain:  Pick a small, inconspicuous spot on your item to test. This should be in an area that is hidden from view during normal use, such as the inside of a jacket. If you can find no such spot, pick one that is less visible, such as the inner side of a shoe rather than the outer side. Gently rub the sandpaper on the spot. Go back and forth a few times. Check for damage. It's normal to see some loose fibers after sanding suede. These can be shaved off with a razor. However, if there is any discoloration or major changes in texture, you should try a different cleaning method. Gently go over the stain with your sandpaper. Make small circular motions all over the stained area. Apply only the lightest amount of pressure possible. Be careful not to abrade the fabric. The stain should gradually wear away. It's possible that sanding alone will not remove the stain. If there is still a stain that won't get any lighter, stop buffing and try a solvent method:  Soak a soft bristle brush with either white vinegar or rubbing alcohol. Gently scrub the stain, being careful not to abrade the suede. If the brush dries out before you've completely lifted the stain, soak it again with your solvent of choice. Once the stain is lifted, finish up by brushing the area with a clean toothbrush.

Article in English: Sandpaper comes in different materials. Each material works best with particular types of sanding. Your options are:   Garnet. Garnet is a natural abrasive used for sanding any kind of bare wood. Garnet is versatile, but it dulls faster than other sandpapers.   Silicon carbide. Silicon carbide is best used for sanding down joint compound (the thick mix used to plaster over seams in drywall) and getting out specks of dust that get trapped under your wood finish.   Aluminum oxide. Aluminum oxide can be used to sand down wood, metal, and paint. It’s duller than silicon carbide, but it lasts longer.   Ceramic. Mostly used for power sanding, ceramic is one of the most durable and expensive abrasives.   Alumina zirconia. A hard and durable abrasive. Use alumina zirconia if you're using a machine with a disc or belt. Sandpaper comes in three grades: coarse, medium, and fine. Sandpaper grades are measured in “grit.” The higher the grit of a sandpaper, the smoother it will make the surface it’s used on. Check the packaging the sandpaper comes in to see what its grit is. Buy some sheets in each grade for your project.   Coarse-grade sandpaper has a grit of 40 to 80. An 80-grit sandpaper should be coarse enough unless you have significant defects in the surface you’ll be sanding.   Medium-grade sandpaper has a grit of 100 to 150.   Fine-grade sandpaper has a grit of 180 to 220. A 220-grit sandpaper should be fine enough for your project, but there are higher grits if you want a smoother finish. Closed-coat sandpaper is completely covered in grain, meaning it's a stronger abrasive. Open-coat sandpaper has less grain on it, so it's not as effective, but the extra space on the sheet prevents buildup, which makes it last longer. Use closed-coat sandpaper for harder surfaces and open-coat sandpaper for softer surfaces.

Article in English: Sandpaper is a somewhat more direct way of purifying blemishes off your eraser. Sandpaper should be available at your local hardware store, or you might be able to find some in the automotive section or home and garden section of your local general retailer. Craft stores might also be a good place to look.  You’ll want to choose a finer grit sandpaper for your eraser purifying purposes. Grit ratings range from extra coarse (36 grit) to extra fine (320 grit). Too coarse a grit should be avoided, as it will remove more eraser than is necessary and shorten the life of your eraser.  In a pinch, you might be able to use an emery board or nail file in place of sandpaper. However, gunk can get caught in the ridges of your board/file and may be difficult to remove. Look closely at your eraser and find the spots where gunk build-up, smear, and residue have accumulated.  These will look like dark spots or smudges. These are the areas you’ll want to focus rubbing your sandpaper against. You should rub the blemishes on your eraser with light to moderate-light strokes; you won’t need to use much force to cause the shavings to come free.  You may be able to more precisely apply your sandpaper by bending it around a finger (or several fingers) and using the rounded edge to rub off the blemishes. You also might have success with using a corner or edge of your sandpaper to rub the blemishes free. As you rub your eraser with sandpaper, shavings will come free, removing the blemishes along with them. Keep an eye on your sandpaper as you purify your eraser. If gunk begins to buildup on the surface of the paper, you should switch to a new section of the paper. You may want to apply your sandpaper to your eraser over a garbage can. The grittiness of the paper will cause shavings to come free easily. Be careful not to remove more than is necessary. As soon as the gunk appears gone, your eraser should be clean. Specially designed pencil cases will prevent your eraser from becoming hard and unusable. But even a run-of-the-mill eraser...

Article in English: Sarcoptic mange usually causes frantic itching. The dog may relentlessly scratch or chew at its skin to relieve the itch. The dog's skin, irritated from the constant scratching and biting, can easily become infected. The itching can even be so severe that it distracts the dog from necessary behavior like eating, drinking, and resting. Severe cases of sarcoptic mange that result in secondary infections from bacteria or yeast can cause a white, crusty surface to form on the dog's irritated skin, though this does not occur in all cases. In addition, dogs with severe secondary infections will also often suffer weight loss, run a fever, and/or have enlarged lymph nodes. Localized demodectic mange, the least serious variety, usually results in one or two "thin" or bald patches in the dog's hair. Usually, this small patch will not appear inflamed or irritated and will not cause serious itching. If a case of localized demodectic mange does not go away on its own, it may eventually spread to the rest of the dog's body, resulting in generalized mange. The dog will develop numerous thin or bald patches over its body. Existing patches may grow to about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. The skin in the patches may become red, scaly, and/or crusty. This skin irritation can cause the dog to scratch at its skin, which can sometimes lead to more serious infections. These secondary infections will lead to similar symptoms as those in sarcoptic mange cases — fever, weight loss, swollen lymph nodes, etc. Some select cases of demodectic mange cause a condition called demodectic pododermatitis. This occurs when the mites that cause mange become deeply embedded in the dog's feet, where they are very difficult to remove. This condition most often presents itself in the form of swollen, irritated feet. It is usually worst around the nailbeds and often accompanied by a secondary infection. One of the ways to detect a case of mange on your dog is to find mite bites on yourself. When the type of mites that cause sarcoptic mange come into...

Article in English: Satire writing is a particular genre of humor in which the writer uses his or her humor to criticize some part of human society. The presentation can be harsh or gentle, but the aim is always to draw attention to some flaw in need of correction. When writing satire, it is important to write from the perspective with a desire to correct broken parts of human nature and society rather than a desire to break these elements down further. Horatian satire is gentle, and the general idea is to persuade people to fix wrongs with sympathetic laughter. Good examples of Horatian satire include The Spectator by Joseph Addison and Richard Steele or Candide by Voltaire. In the latter, for instance, Voltaire creates caricatures of various ideologies to laughingly point out the folly of each one. Juvenalian satire has bitter and angry overtones. The general idea is to demonstrate a sense of moral outrage by using sarcasm, parody, and similar techniques to show how broken things are. One of the best examples of Juvenalian satire is Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal. Swift makes the very immodest suggestion of eating surplus children to ease the economic burden of his country, and uses logical language and arguments of the time to justify the proposal. In doing so, he shows the flaws of the same arguments he pretends to use.

Article in English: Saturated and trans fats are particularly bad for your heart.  Keep your fat intake down to 3 servings per day. A serving is actually a very small amount, like a tablespoon of butter. You can reduce your fat intake by:  Checking the labels on food to see what types of fat they contain. Limit yourself to 14 grams of saturated fat and 2 grams of trans fat each day. This will help prevent your arteries from clogging. Some packages may not say they have trans fats. If it says “partially hydrogenated,” those fats are likely to be trans fats.  Healthier fat sources include: Olive, canola, vegetable, and nut oils, avocados, nuts, seeds, trans fat free margarine, cholesterol lowering margarines like Benecol, Promise Activ, and Smart Balance. Fat sources to avoid include: Butter, lard, bacon fat, gravy, cream sauces, nondairy creamers, hydrogenated margarine, hydrogenated shortening, cocoa butter, chocolate, coconut, palm, cottonseed, and palm kernel oils. Eating too much salt contributes to hypertension, or high blood pressure. You lower your salt intake by:  Not adding table salt to your food. At first, you may miss the salt, but after a while, your body will readjust and you won't crave the salt. Avoid pre-packaged or canned foods that have salt added. This includes many snacks like chips, pretzels, and salted nuts. You can replace these snacks with an apple or carrot. Fruits and vegetables are low in fat and high in fiber and vitamins. A heart healthy diet should include 2 to 3 cups of fruit and 2 to 3 cups of vegetables each day.  Fresh or frozen vegetables are generally healthier than canned items. In particular avoid canned vegetables that have salt added or fruits that have sugary syrups. Don't eat vegetables that are fried, breaded, or have fatty cream sauces. Many fruits and vegetables make simple, quick snacks. Try eating an apple, banana, cucumber, carrot or pepper when you get hungry between meals. Red meats like steaks and pork chops are often very fatty. Healthier alternatives are poultry and fish. You...

Article in English: Saturated fats are used to synthesize prostaglandin in your body.. Foods that contain saturated fats include:  processed meats (like sausage, hotdogs or bacon), fried foods, fast foods and whole-milk dairy products (like cheese or butter). Stop or limit your intake of alcohol. High levels of alcohol have been shown to increase prostaglandin production. Women should limit alcohol to 1 glass or less per day and men should limit alcohol to 2 glasses or less daily. Some studies have shown that added sugars trigger the release of certain chemicals that have inflammation-promoting properties. Limiting these foods, especially if you eat them on a regular basis, can decrease inflammation. Foods to limit include:  Limit foods like sweets, pastries, sweetened beverages and desserts that typically contain added sugars. These types of fats are key in the production of prostaglandins.  Minimizing these types of fats may help decrease prostaglandin production. Omega-6 fats are found in foods like:  corn oil, safflower oil, mayonnaise, dressings, soy oil, peanut oil and vegetable oil.

When hot, whisk in 1 tsp of butter to enrich the sauce and season to taste. You can add a sprinkling of cayenne pepper to add flavour. This is frequently used in larger formal kitchens. Make a brown beef stock first and simmer until it has reduced and thickened slightly. Make and then add the Espagnole to a 1 to 1 ratio of sauce to stock, continue to simmer to reduce the sauce to a desired consistency. This sauce is best made in a large amount as it stores very well in the fridge or freezer for future use. Heat the espagnole and add 100ml of white wine, or a light red wine. Add the zest and juice of 1 orange and a tablespoon of redcurrant jelly or jam. Finely chop 50g of gherkins and stir into the Espagnole sauce.

Article in English: Save the command tp @p x y z into a command block. Instead of x, y, and z, enter the x-, y-, and z-coordinates of the location you'd like to teleport (for example, /tp @p 0 64 0). When anyone activates this box, the player nearest to the box will vanish and reappear at those coordinates.  Press F3 to display coordinates. Just like any command, you can replace the "@p" with another term. If you type your username, you'll always be the one teleported, even if someone else activates the block. If you use @r, a random player on the server will be teleported. Assuming you're using Minecraft 1.7 or later, you can make command blocks to summon any entity or block. Here are some examples:  A command block with summon Boat stored will add a new boat next to the block every time the block becomes activated. The people of your server will never need to wait for a ferry again. To spawn a block instead of an entity, use the setblock command instead of the summon command. setblock minecraft:water 50 70 100 turns the block at the coordinates 50-70-100 into water. If there was already a block there, it disappears. The kill command will permanently destroy an entity. This one is dangerous to use, since a typo could end up destroying the wrong thing (or even your entire world if you use @e). kill @r[type=Painting,r=50] destroys a random painting within a 50 block radius of the command block. time set day or time set 0 will set the level of sunlight to the specified amount. Try different values instead of 0 to make it any time you like. Once you're tired of ruling over perpetual sunshine, make a block with toggle downfall or weather rain to start the rain. There are hundreds of commands, which you can find by using /help or searching Minecraft websites. Here are a few more to explore:   say (message)  give (player) (item) (number of that item)  effect (player) (potion effect) gamerule testforblock

Article in English: Save the rest of your milk for the very end. If the recipe you are using calls for dry ingredients, such as flax seed and oatmeal, pour them in now. If you cooked your oatmeal the night before, you can add it in at this point as well. If you wish to add a little protein to your smoothie, you can add in one tablespoon of peanut butter. If you do not like peanut butter or are allergic to it, but still want a sweet-tasting smoothie, opt for 1 tablespoon of honey instead. Do not worry if the fruit is not evenly-sliced. It will get all blended together. The frozen fruit will not only help thicken your smoothie, but keep it cool as well. Take the remaining milk, and pour it over the fruit. Put the lid onto the blender, and turn the blender on. Start at a low speed, then progress to a higher speed. If the ingredients are clumping up on the sides of the blender, they probably aren't blending properly. Simply stop the blender and open the lid. Stir the ingredients inside with a spatula, making sure to knock any clumps of fruit off the sides of the mixing container. Replace the lid and turn the blender back on. Once everything has blended, stop the blender, take off the lid, and pour everything into a tall glass. You can use a spatula to help guide everything into the cup. Be sure to scrape any smoothie off the sides of the mixing container so that nothing goes to waste.

Article in English: Saving money on transportation is easy and can actually make your life more convenient. Though many people are reluctant to give up sitting cozily behind the wheel of their car, cutting costs on transportation can help you save a lot of extra money each week. Here's what you can do:  When you can, walk instead of drive. Instead of driving to the grocery store that is five minutes away, take a nice leisurely walk. This will not only save you gas money, but it will give you great exercise and will keep you from buying more than you need. Take public transportation instead of driving. If this is an option, take it. Not only will you save money, but you will be able to avoid traffic and read a good book while you travel. Carpool. Carpooling will save you money and it will help you get places faster if you're driving on a highway with a carpool lane. You will be amazed by how much extra cash you have left over if you pay attention to how you spend money when you're shopping. Whether you're looking for a new outfit or buying your weekly groceries, there are always a few things you can do to save money:  Instead of shopping at a fancy name-brand store, check out the funky clothes at your local thrift store. Buy things used instead of new. If you don't really care if the item is new, get the old version on Amazon or at a used book or thrift store. Buying your textbooks or books for reading pleasure used will save you a lot of money.  Save money on groceries. Make a point of shopping at reasonably-priced store in your area, to stock up on items you use that are on sale, and of buying only what you need.

Article in English: Saving tends to be easier when you know what you’re saving for. Try to set a goal, such as building an emergency fund, saving for a down payment, saving for a major household purchase, or building a retirement fund. If your bank will let you, you can even give your account a nickname such as “Vacation Fund” to help remind you of what you’re working toward. A savings account is generally the easiest place to put your savings if you are just starting out. If you already have a solid emergency fund and have a reasonable amount to invest, such as $1,000, you may consider something like a certificate of deposit (CD). CDs make your money much harder to get to for a fixed period of time but tend to pay you a higher interest rate.   Keeping your savings separate from your checking account will make it less likely that you'll spend your savings. Savings accounts also tend to pay a slightly higher interest rate than checking accounts. Many banks will allow you to set up an automatic transfer between your checking and savings accounts. Set up a monthly transfer from your checking to your savings, even if it’s just for a small amount. That's a relatively painless way to build your savings. If you get a raise, a bonus, a tax refund, or an unexpected windfall, put it in your savings or, if you have one, your retirement account. This is an easy way to help boost your account without compromising your current budget.  If you get a raise, invest the difference between your budgeted salary and your new salary directly into your savings. Since you already have a plan to live off your old salary, you can use the new influx of cash to build your savings. If you work a side gig, build a budget based on your primary source of income, and dedicate your other earnings  to your savings or retirement account. This will help grow your savings faster while making your budget more comfortable.

Article in English: Saving up for a car doesn’t just have to come from only spending less money.  Hold a yard or garage sale to sell old clothes, items, and furniture you don’t need or use anymore. You can also sell old electronics on eBay for some quick cash. Tell your manager that you're saving up for a car and would like to get more hours. Or, offer to cover any shifts that your coworkers have conflicts with. If you have a job that pays you a salary, or you don’t get enough hours at your current job, consider getting a second job. This won’t be the most fun way to spend your time, but it will make saving for a car easier and faster, and you’ll thank yourself for all of your hard work when you’re behind the wheel of your new car. If you’re a teen trying to save for a car, ask your parents or your neighbors if there's any extra work for you. Do some babysitting, dog walking, or even yard work.

Saw 4 rails to separate the posts. Measure the mattress width and cut the rails to be 1 inch (2 to 3 cm) longer. When you cut the tenons to fit the rails into the posts, they will be the width of the mattress.     Cut spindles to place between the rails of the headboard and footboard. You need 36-inch (90 cm) spindles for the headboard and 24-inch (61 cm) spindles for the footboard. After cutting the tenons, they will measure 1 inch (2.5 cm) shorter. The number of spindles you need depends on the size of the bed.     Prepare 4 bed rails to connect the headpost to the foot post on each side. Measure the mattress length and cut the bed rails so they're 1 inch (2 to 3 cm) longer.    These are blades with 2 handles that you set against the wood and pull toward you. A curved drawknife removes bark and a straight drawknife shapes the log. Frostner bits drill flat-bottomed holes large enough to hold tenons. Mortises for the headboard should be cut at 9 inches (23 cm) and 44 inches (1.1 m) from the floor. For the footboard, the mortises are cut at 9 inches (23 cm) and 32 inches (80 cm).     Spindle mortises are cut so the spindles will be evenly spaced.     Mortises for the bottom bed rail are drilled at 5 inches (13 cm) above the floor in all 4 posts. The mortises for the top bed rail are drilled at 13 inches (33 cm) from the floor.

Article in English: Sawdust is used to cover the white glue and blend the crack, so it needs to match the wood you’re treating as much as possible. For the best blend, get some sawdust from the wood by sawing or sanding it. When this isn’t possible, purchase a bag of sawdust from a home improvement store. Get a bottle of wood glue from the store. Press the nozzle against the crack and squeeze the container until the glue fills the entire space you need to repair. For small cracks, you may also use a syringe to ensure the glue gets all the way down inside the crack. Layer a lot of sawdust over the glue to completely cover it. Rub your finger over the crack to ensure the glue holds the sawdust in place. When you’re finished, the sawdust should hide the glue from view, blending in with the rest of the wood. Leave the glue to rest until the next day. When the glue is completely dried, the crack should be hard to see. If it’s still visible, reapply the glue and sawdust combination or a different filler. Go over the crack with a piece of fine grit sandpaper that's between 120 and 220 grit. Carefully rub down the treated area until the filler is flat and unnoticeable.

Replay the lunch date in your head, resisting the urge to defend yourself. This will help you to see clearly whether or not you talk a lot in comparison to other people. Ask yourself some pointed questions, like:  "Who did most of the talking?" "Did we talk more about me or about my friend?" "How often did I interrupt my friend?" Think about the way you talk to everyone, including—but not limited to—your boss, co-workers, mother, and the restaurant staff. Do you open the conversation by jumping in with a funny story of your life and your observations without being asked? Or are you likely to ask someone a question and let them tell you a story, tell you about their life and their observations? Conversation is a balance between both participants, and although you should take Sheryl Sandberg's advice and lean in, you hog the limelight when you focus too much on yourself.

Tell your partner “I’m here for you,” to reassure them that you care. You want your partner to understand that you are there for them through the good and the bad, and that you are always ready to listen and offer encouragement. This way, your partner can trust you and you can grow more in love.  If your partner is having a rough day, ask them to talk about it. Listen to their words carefully, and offer supportive words such as "Babe, you're wonderful. Don't worry about what your boss thinks." You can also tell your partner a joke to cheer them up. Showing kindness to your partner is a great way to display your feelings for them. You can do things like buy them flowers, leave them a cute note, or buy them a small gift just because.  In addition, you can make your partner their favorite meal for dinner or bring them breakfast in bed. Another way to do a kind gesture is always opening the door for your partner. Small, gentle touches are a great way to show your care and love. When chatting, gently touch your partner’s arm, hand, or knee. Hold hands when you are walking around, and touch their back affectionately. These are all small reminders of your love. Be sure to hug and kiss your partner goodbye, as well.

Article in English: Say you are on Google+ login page, and it has auto-filled the username and password (as you previously clicked "remember me" in your browser to stay signed in). All browsers for security purpose mask the password field with asterisks; this makes text secret. There is an easy way to covert those asterisks to normal text. Select "Inspect Element". After you inspect elements, a developer tool window will appear below, where you will see the code which is highlighted and code looks like <input id="password" class=" " type="password"......>. Double-click on "password" and change it to "text" like this: <input id=password class=" " type="text".......>.  Hit Enter now. After you hit enter, you will reveal a text which is replaced by masked symbols (asterisks). To replace the asterisks/dots, undo the same action. Replace "text" with "password," and it'll be back to normal.

Article in English: Say you borrowed money from a friend who is going to charge you daily interest. The amount borrowed was initially $15 and the interest rate is 3% per day. These are the only two numbers you need for the calculation. Working backward from before, divide the percentage by 100%, or you can multiply by 0.01 (they’re the exact same).  3%/100% = 3/100 = 0.03. It helps to reword your problem with the new value(s) now in the form of “X of Y is Z.” X is the decimal form of your percent, “of” means to multiply, Y is the whole amount, and Z is the answer. So, 0.03 x $15 is $0.45.  In this example, $0.45 is the amount of interest accrued each day that you do not pay your friend back. If you need to further calculate the total due after 1 day, you would add the amount you borrowed to the amount of the interest times the number of days. So $15 + ($0.45 x 1 day) = $15.45.

Article in English: Say you made $45,000 per year at your old job and that you accepted a new position making $50,000 per year. This means you would take $50,000 and subtract $45,000. $50,000 - $45,000 = $5,000. If you receive hourly pay and don’t know your total yearly earnings, you can simply use the old and new hourly rate in place of the salary. For instance, if the raise was from $14/hour to $16/hour, then you would use $16 - $14 = $2. In order to turn the increase amount into a percentage, you must first calculate it as a decimal. To get the decimal you want, take the difference calculated in Step 1, and divide it by the amount of your old salary.  Based on the example from Step 1, this would mean taking $5,000 and dividing it by $45,000. $5,000 / $45,000 = 0.111. If you’re calculating the hourly percentage increase, this would still work the same way. From the previous hourly example, take $2 / $14 = 0.143 To turn a number expressed in a decimal format into a percentage, simply multiple it by 100. Using the previous example, you would multiply 0.111 by 100. 0.111 x 100 = 11.1% This means that the new salary of $50,000 is roughly 111.1% of the previous $45,000 salary or that you received an 11.1% increase.  For the hourly rate example, you would still multiply the decimal number by 100. This would make the previous hourly example 0.143 x 100 = 14.3%. To check your work, multiply your original salary or hourly rate by the increase percentage. For example, if you multiply $45,000 x 1.111, the answer is is $49,995, which rounds up to $50,000. Likewise, $14 x 1.143 = $16.002. If you’re comparing a new job at a new company rather than just a salary increase or promotion at your current company, then the salary might be just one part of the overall benefits package to consider. You’ll have a wide range of other items to factor into your increased bottom line. Some of these items include:  Insurance benefits/premiums - If both jobs offer employer-based insurance coverage, then you’ll have to compare the coverage of the insurance...

Article in English: Say you need to tell them something important and tell them what you hope to get from them from the conversation.  There are a number of things that you might want:  If you just want them to listen and offer emotional support, let them know that. If you want their advice, let them know. If you need their financial support, e.g., to see a mental health professional, mention that. You need to let them know that you want to have a serious conversation in private. This means starting the conversation in a general kind of way that conveys that you have a problem you want to discuss without getting into the specifics just yet. Here are some examples of broad conversation starters:  "I have a problem that I need to tell you about. Can we go somewhere private to talk?" "I could really use your advice on an issue I'm having. Can we go for a walk?" "I really need your help with something private; I want to talk to you alone about it." Try to remember that they may not know certain things about you, or that they may see the world a bit differently than you do. As you have the conversation, try to keep their perspectives in mind to ensure that you are all on the same page. As you are explaining things, keep track of their faces. If either parent looks confused, ask them if anything you said is unclear. Make sure you tell your parents all the information that you have about your eating disorder. Do you suspect that you have an eating disorder but have never been diagnosed by a mental health professional?

Article in English: Say you're in a school hallway and you see that really attractive football jock. He's looking at a poster about sending in a picture for the school yearbook. You walk up to him and ask him if he's going to send one in. Introduce yourself, be open-minded about everything, and just be friendly. And you've done it – the ice is officially broken. It might happen slowly from here, but the hardest part is now over. You could also ask about whatever he is doing or what he appears to be looking at. If it's something you like, mention that. If it's something you don't know anything about, ask questions and try to learn more about it from the boy. If he's looking at a tour schedule for a band you've never heard of before, say something like, "Hey, what do they sing? They sound familiar." Anything to just get the conversation going. Then you can start talking about other bands and hit it off from there. You've broken the ice, but now what? Have a deep conversation about each others' philosophy on life? Hmm. Not so fast. To get started, you might want some background information on his interests, like seeing if he's involved in a sport, just so you have something to talk about. Then when you're in the hallway together, you can slip in, "Hey, you're on the football team, right? Gonna win this week's game?" This also shows that you're paying attention to him, which will make him feel good. Hopefully, he will begin asking about you and your interests, too. If he does, this may indicate you can comfortably spend more time talking or hanging out. The absolute hardest part of talking to anyone is saying that very first thing. And that's over! ...But now you have to keep the conversation going. Here are a few tips for making that initial conversation last:  Gather ideas from your surroundings. If you're at a sports game, make a comment about what just happened ("Aww, did you see that fumble?!") Then, tell him about a funny or engaging personal story occurring at a past game you went to. He may have a funny story, too. If you're...

Article in English: Say you've got to add 1234 and 5678. Enter 1234 on the abacus by pushing up four beads in the ones place, three in the tens place, two in the hundreds place, and one in the thousands place. The first numbers you'll add are the 1 and the 5 from the thousands place, in this case moving the single bead from the top row of that column down to add the 5, and leaving the lower bead up for a total of 6. Likewise, to add 6 in the hundreds place, move the top bead in the hundreds place down and one bead from the bottom row up to get a total of 8. Since adding the two numbers in the tens place will result in 10, you'll carry over a 1 to the hundred place, making it a 9 in that column. Next, put all the beads down in the tens place, leaving it zero. In the ones column, you'll do essentially the same thing. Eight plus 4 equals 12, so you'll carry the one over to the tens place, making it 1. This leaves you with 2 in the ones place. You're left with a 6 in the thousands column, a 9 in the hundreds, a 1 in the tens, and a 2 in the ones: 1,234 + 5,678 = 6,912. Borrow digits from the previous column instead of carrying them over. Say you're subtracting 867 from 932. After entering 932 into the abacus, start subtracting column-by-column starting on your left.  Eight from nine is one, so you'll leave a single bead up in the hundreds place. In the tens place, you can't subtract 6 from 3, so you'll borrow the 1 in the hundreds place (leaving it zero) and subtract 6 from 13, making it 7 in the tens place (the upper bead up and two lower beads). Do the same thing in the ones place, "borrowing" a bead from the tens place (making it 6) to subtract 7 from 12 instead of 2. There should be a 5 in the ones column: 932 - 867 = 65.

Article in English: Saying "I love you" is a big step, and before you say those magic words, you need to make sure you mean it. If you don’t mean it, don’t do it.You may be feeling infatuated, obsessed, or smitten with your boyfriend, but how do you know that what you're feeling is truly love? Here are some signs that you are truly in love:  If nothing feels as good as it does when you're with your significant other. If he has a way of putting you at ease and making you feel amazing for who you are. If you can't imagine your future without him. If you can be yourself completely around him. If you are realistic about who your boyfriend is. If you are able to accept his flaws instead of thinking he's absolutely perfect, this is a sign that you may be in love. Though you're not a mind reader, you may have a sense that he also loves you, or you wouldn't consider telling him such big news. You won't be able to know if he loves you for sure until you tell him, but there are a few things you can consider to get a better sense of how he feels. Here are some signs that he may share your feelings:  If he's always complimenting you, telling you how amazing you are, and saying that he's never met a person like you, then he may be falling for you. If he can't keep his hands off of you and always wants to be around you. Make sure he is feeling love, not lust -- it's easy to confuse the two. If he's addicted to your mind and your personality and not just your body, then he may be falling for you. If you often catch him staring at you with a dopey, sweet expression. Bonus points if he blushes and turns away when you catch him.

Article in English: Saying "I love you" makes you vulnerable, as the other person may not reciprocate those feelings. He may feel afraid that you'll reject his love, even if you've shown him, you love him already. If he's been in a bad relationship in the past, he may not be as willing to jump in emotionally to this relationship. Therefore, don't automatically assume something's wrong if he hasn't said it yet; he may just be waiting until he feels ready to make a commitment to you. It may be that he just doesn't like to talk about his emotions. Instead, maybe he prefers just to show how he feels about you, making you a priority in his life.

Article in English: Saying goodbye is actually a unique opportunity to think back on your friendship and tell your friend how much it has meant to you. It's not often friends get the chance to do that, so take advantage. Writing it all down in a letter is cathartic, and your friend will be able to treasure it forever.  Write down your recollection of how you met. Do you remember the first time you and your friend hit it off? Sometimes you just know when someone you meet is going to end up being a great friend. Write down some of your favorite memories. Recall movies you saw together, concerts you attended, fun sleepovers you had. If you want, open your heart even more. You can talk about the bad times, too, and how much the two of you have grown as friends as a result of overcoming them. Saying goodbye is sad, but it's something you'll both get through. Your friend will have a lot of adjustments to make, and as her BFF it's your job to cheer her up. Throw in some lighthearted stories or jokes that will make her laugh when she unfolds your letter.

Article in English: Saying more by saying less can make some people shut down or quit listening. Add content to discussions that is as condensed as possible without being vague. Talking until you get to your point will ensure half of your audience has already tuned out. State your point up front and people will know what you are trying to elaborate about. If you have to give a speech and there's a time limit, don't squeeze in the thirty thoughts that come to your head. Pick the three most important ideas, and elaborate on those. Words such as um, a, like, etc... degrade and detract from what you say. They disturb the flow of a sentence and make it detached. A nonverbal pause is much better. When floundering for words, a nonverbal pause, placed correctly, gives the listener the effect of a dramatic or studied thought. It confirms your control over what is being said. Speaking more slowly, eliminating distractions, and making eye contact will also help you stick to your message. Another way to speak more clearly is to speak more slowly. You may feel that if you rush and say everything you wanted to say, that you'll be able to get it over with and make people see your point more clearly. However, if you take the time to slow down, think about what you have to say, and pronounce your words in a way that won't make you mumble or confuse your audiences, then you will actually be more well-spoken.  You don't have to speak…so…slowly…that you feel like you're pausing between every word, but pausing in between sentences to give yourself time to prepare your next sentence will do the trick. If you speak too quickly, there's also a chance that you will say something that you regret or that makes absolutely no sense, and you'll have to do some backtracking to make your audience understand what you really mean; you can avoid all that by speaking slowly to begin with. If you keep your hands in your pockets, you are more likely to stutter, forget what you have to say, or to confuse your audience. That's because using your hands to gesture can...

Article in English: Saying thank you and finding other ways to let your boyfriend know that you appreciate him will help to make your boyfriend feel loved and appreciated. Try to thank him or let him know that you appreciated something he did on a daily basis.  For example, you might say something like, “Thank you for doing the dishes! I was really overwhelmed by work and I appreciate that so much.” Or, if he opens a door for you, then you can simply say, “Thank you!” Give him a hug and a peck on the cheek when you see him. Do the same when you part, and whenever you feel the urge to feel close to him. Try a long hug for extra closeness. Embrace him and count to seven. It may feel like a long time, but it feels good to get a loving hug from someone you care about. The quickest way to communicate that you love him is to tell him! Even if you’ve already said it once, it doesn’t hurt repeat yourself when you feel the urge to do so. Look him in the eye and tell him how you feel. Spending time with your boyfriend can be exciting, to say the least. Still, it is important to have time apart. You don’t need to spend every moment with him to show that you love him. Keep doing the activities you love to do, and let him do the same.  Remember that you both had separate lives before you met. He probably fell in love with you because of who you are as an individual. Keep developing into the person you want to be. Let him go out with his friends while you do your own thing. This shows that you trust him and support his other relationships. Group dates are fun, but quality time with friends (without your significant other) is healthy too. Send him a text or an email update when you are apart. Let him know that you are thinking about him by maintaining communication. Even if you see each other often, send him a text to check in and see how he’s doing. Maintain contact if you are apart for a long time. Maybe he’s going on a trip, or you have to visit family for a few weeks. Stay in contact. Send pictures, give him updates on your life, and let...

Article in English: Saying “I love you” for the first time is really scary. If you’re nervous, planning what you are going to say can boost your confidence. Think about what you want her to know, then rehearse your declaration of love. Instead of just saying "I love you," consider going deeper. For example:  Give her reasons why you love her. Tell her when you fell in love with her. Let her know how special she is to you. Decide if you will keep it simple or make it a grand, romantic gesture. Telling someone you love them is a personal, special affair. You want the moment to be perfect. Pick a location that is private, perhaps even meaningful to your relationship, and a time that is appropriate.  Don't express your love for her in the middle of class. If you are with a group of people, pull her aside. You can plan a special date for the occasion. Take her on a walk or a picnic. Tell her during a dinner you prepared for her. In addition to preparing what you will say, you should also prepare for her response to those three little words. Ideally, she will say, “I love you too!” However, she may not feel the same way about you.  She might ignore your comment or divert the conversation to a new topic. If this happens, do not ask her, “well, do you love me too?” Be prepared to give her some time and space to digest what you said. Try to go on with the date as normal. Remain calm and mature if she rejects you. Have a positive, kind response prepared—your maturity just might impress her.

Article in English: Saying “no” is empowering and allows you to be in control of your life without trying to please other people. So why is it so hard to say no? Saying no takes some practice, so start noticing when you’re fearful to say no and practice saying “no” in the mirror to get more comfortable with those words. When saying no, make it clear that you are saying no to the request, not to the individual.  Don’t feel obligated to commit to something on the spot. Say, “Can I have a moment to think this decision over and get back to you?” If someone is being pushy, be just as resolute at saying no. Say, “I know you won’t give up easily, but I am not going to change my mind.” Know that people ask you for favors or to do projects because they believe in you. Always say “thank you for thinking of me”, even when you politely decline. You may continue to have this person in your life because there’s some benefit in it for you. This person may be a romantic partner whom you live with or share finances, or you may need that person to boost you up when you feel down. You may feel fearful of this person leaving you and have a fear of abandonment, even if you’re unhappy in the relationship.  Ask yourself what benefits you receive from the relationship, whether they be physical (companionship, monetary needs, sex), emotional (someone to talk to, a sense of belonging), and related to feeling dependent. Ask yourself, “Is this relationship fair to this person?  Is it fair to me?” If you have fears of abandonment, do some inner work and resolve the trauma of abandonment.  You can also Find a Therapist. You may need to discuss appropriate boundaries with this person. Decide what boundaries you want to enforce, and ask yourself how each boundary will benefit you and the relationship. Thinking of the benefits will help you commit to keeping the boundary and not feel guilty about enforcing it.  Affirm each boundary with positive statements. “Even though this person may be unhappy with this boundary, I have the right to decide how to spend my...

Article in English: Saying, “I love you,” is a common expression of appreciation and caring. There are plenty of other ways to express appreciation that are more direct and specific. This is important because everyone expresses and accepts love and compassion in different ways. The more ways you communicate your appreciation, the better chance that the person will see it as genuine. Some examples include:  ”I enjoy spending time with you.” ”I really appreciate all that you do for me.” ”You are one of my best friends.” Showing someone your appreciation for them sometimes comes in the form of trusting them. Be open with the other person and tell them things that you wouldn’t tell just anyone. Allow them to be close to you, and they will know that you appreciate them. For example, you might tell someone that you really appreciate a story from your childhood that you typically keep private. The people you appreciate should also be able to confide in you. Make an effort to show that you care about their life and strive to make a genuine emotional connection. Never ridicule or make fun of someone that opens up to you emotionally, as this can cause them to feel embarrassed and close back up. Showing someone that you are there for them time and time again will prove that you appreciate them, and will make them appreciate you in return. For example, if someone close to you is going through a breakup or divorce, they may need to lean on you for support. Never belittle their situation or make jokes about it by saying things like, “Don’t come crying to me. Get out there and find someone else.” Instead, be supporting by saying things like, “I know you are going through a rough time. What can I do to cheer you up?” Sometimes we’re so busy and wrapped up in life that we forget to express gratitude to our friends and loved ones. We take things in life – and people – for granted, though it’s usually not on purpose.  Think about things you can do to express your gratitude.  Try thanking loved ones for what they do, for example, even the little...

Article in English: Scabies is a contagious infection that manifests as intense itching. It caused by a small mite called Sarcoptes scabiei, or the itch mite. It burrows into the skin and causes itching. Here are the symptoms:  Intense persistent itching that has lasted for weeks and is worse at night Tiny red bumps which may be connected with each other with pink or grey lines Burrows (visible as lines) between raised bumps Scabies is spread via human-to human contact. It can also spread by sharing clothing, bedding and towels. Because of this, take care of who you come into contact with and who comes into contact with you.  Immediately adopt preventive measures like washing yourself with a good anti-bacterial soap and warm water with vigorous scrubbing if you're exposed to scabies. You may want to wash your clothes as well. Avoid contact with people if you have scabies and/or if they have scabies as much as possible. Even shaking hands for a short duration of 5 seconds is often enough to pass on this highly infectious mite. If left untreated or treated poorly scabies can manifest as severe itching that may be worse than the previous episode. Scabies can also recur easily and care should be taken to avoid recurrence.  Scratching of scabies infected skin can lead to development of open sores which can lead to introduction of pathogens into the body leading to serious secondary infections.  Scarring is one of the common complications of scabies infection, which results from excessive itching of the skin. To prevent scarring scabies treatment should be started immediately and should be followed to the T.

Article in English: Scalding, or heating to a temperature just below boiling, changes the milk's behavior in bread recipes. Some people like to scald pasteurized milk as an extra precaution against microbes, but this is not necessary if it's been stored in a refrigerator. If the milk is unpasteurized or if it's been stored at room temperature, boil it instead. If you have milk left over after drinking or cooking, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. If this is not possible, store the container in a cool room. At warm temperatures, where bacteria thrive, milk will only stay good for four hours at most.

Article in English: Scales are an incredible way to warm up, and they are essential to becoming a good guitarist. You need to make scales a priority in your practice time, so put aside a set amount of time to practice them each day. Turn on a timer and work through every scale you know, playing them each on multiple sections of the guitar. Baseball players hit batting practice every day on a variety of pitches, artists doodle in a sketchbook, and writers free-write. Scales are the basic skill behind guitar theory and playing, and you need to devote time to practicing them. Do not rush through your scales, hitting 1-2 bum notes or missing a string here and there, just because you want to get faster. Speed means nothing if you're not hitting notes cleanly, so always practice with an ear for perfection. Once you've got the scales and exercises down at a certain tempo, then you can gradually increase your speed. It may be frustrating now, but it will make you a better guitarist in the long run. It is highly recommended that you play with a metronome for the best practice sessions. Once you have the scales memorized up and down, it's time to kick your practice into the next level. Very rarely do you play a scale straight up and down, so you shouldn't always practice like that. Try the following string skipping exercises to master any scale.  Play all the normal notes on your scale. Start with the 6th string (your thickest string), then skip to the 4th. Play the notes on the 4th string, then come back up to the 5th. Skip to the 3rd string, then come back to the 4th, moving up and down like this until you can hit them all in rhythm Skip from top to bottom, playing the 6th string, then the 1st. Then play the 5th string, followed by the 2nd, etc. After each string, return to the 6th string again so that you repeat the root note after every string. Once you've gone up and down like this, start repeating the 5th string, then the 4th, etc. This is a fantastic way to increase your speed both up and down the neck, and to add a bit of spice to...

Article in English: Scales are most prevalent outdoors where they infest all species of trees, shrubs, perennial plants and annual plants. When the plants are small enough and infestation is not too severe, get rid of the scales in the same way as you would houseplants.  Scrub the scales off with your nail or an old toothbrush. Spray the plant with an insecticidal spray every four days or so. When the scale infestation is severe, use sharp hand pruners or loppers to trim off branches and leaves which hold high concentrations of these insects.  Make the pruning cut about 1/4-inch above a leaf or at the base of the branch. Use a garden hose to spray off the pruners or loppers before using them on another plant to remove any scale insects that may be left on them. This is also commonly called summer oil or dormant oil, to kill any remaining scale insects. Spray the oil on the tops and bottoms of the leaves as well as the stems. There are various horticultural oil formulas on the market that are all equally good. They are commonly mixed at a rate of 2 to 4 teaspoons per gallon of water, but this varies. Read and follow the manufacturer’s recommendations carefully. Shake the spray bottle vigorously to mix it initially and every few minutes while spraying to keep the oil mixed with the water. Spray the plants in early spring to kill any scale insects that have survived the winter before new growth starts. During the summer, spray the plants for scales in June, July and August but only if they return after the early spring treatment. Horticultural oils work by smothering the scale insects that are on the plant when it is sprayed. The treatment may have to be repeated after a week or two.

Article in English: Scales are usually off-white, tan or brown but can also be other colors. Most of them have a smooth, flat covering but some may look cottony or fluffy.  The adults do not move. The young scales, called crawlers, have legs and will move very slowly, or are blown by the wind, to a spot on a plant that they like. Crawlers are often not the same color as the adults of the species. Cottony cushion scales, for example, are off-white but the crawlers are orange. After the crawlers get to their spot, they will attach to the leaf or stem and eventually lose their legs. When they attach to the plant, they pierce it with their mouths and suck the plant juices out. Scales can become a problem for gardeners all over the world. They survive the winters on plant leaves and stems only to reproduce again when the weather warms and make a meal out of any nearby garden plant. The first symptoms are yellow, falling leaves. Eventually twigs and entire limbs die and the tree bark cracks and oozes sap. Soft scales will do some damage but they rarely do enough damage to kill a plant. The most serious problem they cause is honeydew which is a clear, sticky secretion they leave behind as they feed.  Aphids, small, soft-bodied insects excrete honeydew as well. They are usually green or red, although they can be nearly any color, and are more mobile than scale insects. Sooty mold, a fungus, will often grow on the honeydew causing unsightly dark spots on the leaves and interfering with the plant’s ability to absorb sunlight.

Article in English: Scallions, or green onions, are immature onions that are harvested before the bulbs form. You can start harvesting these within a few weeks of planting, whenever they reach the size you're looking for. Hold the onion gently near the base of the stalk and pull it from the ground. Onions that are left in the ground to mature will eventually start to form larger bulbs. Once the bulbs reach maturity, the scapes and leaves will start to turn yellow and fall over. This means the onions are ready for harvest. Depending on the variety, the onions might be ready anywhere from 90 to 110 days after planting. Place your hand around the scapes and leaves of the onion near the base, and gently pull it from the ground. Shake the onion a bit to remove excess dirt from the roots. Make sure you harvest the onions by late summer, because the cooler temperatures of fall will cause them to spoil. After you’ve harvest all the onions, spread them out on the soil to expose them to the air and sun. Leave the onions to dry in the sun for about three days, until the crown and skin are dry. The skin should also have a uniform texture and color.  During wet weather, cure the onions inside in a well-ventilated area. Curing is the process of allowing the skins to dry, and this will help make for longer storage. Because sweet onions don’t keep as long as pungent onions, you don’t have to cure them for as long. Once the onions have cured, use a pair of scissors to trim the roots and tops to an inch (2.5 cm) in length. Transfer the onions to mesh or paper bags and store them somewhere cool, dry, and well-ventilated.  Sweet onions don’t tend to last as long as regular onions, and you should use them within six weeks. To extend the shelf life of the onions up to 8 weeks, wrap them individually in paper towels and store them in the refrigerator.

Article in English: Scalp eczema can cause problems for your scalp or any affected areas of your skin. Common symptoms include flaky skin (dandruff), itching, red skin, scaliness or crusting of the skin, greasy patches, and hair loss.  Inflammation leads to red patches and high fatty acid content, which can make the skin greasy and yellow in some people.  In infants, it is common in the scalp and can present as red, dry scaly plaques, or in more severe cases as thick white or greasy yellow scales. Other skin diseases such as fungal infection, psoriasis, dermatitis, and lupus may resemble scalp eczema. However, these differ based on the location and layers of the skin involved.  If you aren’t sure whether your symptoms match those of scalp eczema, see your doctor. S/he can help you determine the cause of your symptoms and whether they are severe enough to require treatment. In addition to decreased oils and moisture present, doctors believe that a certain kind of yeast, Malassezia furfur, has a role in causing seborrheic eczema. Malassezia yeast is usually present on the outer surface of the skin. In those with scalp eczema, this yeast invades the superficial layers of skin and secretes substances that increase fatty acid production. This leads to inflammation and enhances production and dryness of skin, which causes the skin to flake. If your eczema is atopic, meaning that your family has a tendency to develop eczema, yeast may not be the culprit. Doctors believe that many people with atopic eczema have a faulty skin barrier due to a changed gene within the skin’s structural proteins. While doctors are not certain why some people develop seborrheic eczema, and others don’t, there do appear to be some factors that increase your risk, including:  Being overweight or obese Fatigue Environmental factors (such as dry weather) Stress Other skin issues (such as acne) Certain medical conditions, including stroke, HIV, Parkinson’s disease, or head injury Alcohol removes protective oils from the skin surface, causing the scalp to dry out....

Article in English: Scammers often use the phrase "Remember the distance or color does not matter, but love matters a lot in life". That phrase is used in a lot of love scam emails. Although they could simply enjoy IM chatting more, what they say in IM may not be reportable to the website, allowing their profile to stay up so they can draw in other people. While plenty of people have bad grammar or spelling, see if it's inconsistent with the way people speak from where they claim to be. Also, if it is audio chat, see if his/her accent is what he/she claimed it to be (if the scammer happened to mention that before, of course).

Article in English: Scan the arts and entertainment sections of your local newspapers, both daily and weekly, for ads announcing "sneak previews" or other movie deals. Sneak previews are like advanced screenings, but typically still charge for access. They are sometimes part of extra deals, however, such as 2-for-1 tickets. Most major stations receive promotional tickets to give away, especially for long-awaited blockbusters. It will take some luck, but as they say, if you don't play, you can't win! For a better shot at a ticket, make an account on the radio station's website and sign up for the newsletter. Most of these sites are filled with promotions for discount popcorn and other less exciting news, but you can get lucky and find a free ticket sometimes, or sign up for a free movie ticket lottery:  Fandango Book My Show GoFoBo Sweepstakes These are usually temporary arrangements between a theater or movie studio, and a company in a different line of business. Because of this, these arrangements could disappear at any time, and are hard to predict in advance. There are two promotions that have been going on for years, though the details may have changed since they were described here:  Donate blood through United Blood Services to get Hero Reward points. 1,000 points gets you two free movie tickets. If you make online appointments and donate three times a year, you can get 200 points per donation. This means two free tickets every year and a half — not impressive, but you'll be helping a lot of people while you earn them. Purchase Coca-Cola products with bottle caps or multi-item packaging to get mycoke reward points. Search the online catalog for movie deals. One example is 2 tickets and 2 drinks at AMC for 1100 points, which typically represents about 44 to 110 six-packs. Hopefully, you have a use for all that soda!

Article in English: Scanning the leaves works better than examining every leaf. As there are hundreds of clovers in a single patch, you won't have time to look at them all. If you scan the leaves instead, a difference in the general pattern may jump out at you. Don't expect a four-leaf clover to have completely even leaves. Keep in mind, when scanning for a four-leaf clover, the clover's fourth leaf may be significantly smaller than the others. Four-leaf clovers are incredibly rare. The more often you search, the more likely you are to find one. If you don't find a four-leaf clover on your first search, keep an eye out each time you pass a clover patch. The more often you look, the more likely you are to eventually find a four-leaf clover.

Article in English: Scar revision surgery is a complicated procedure that comes with risks and costs. As a result, you need to spend some time learning about scar revision surgery so you can make an educated decision about whether it is a worthwhile option for you.  Understand the limitations of surgery and have realistic expectations. Know that surgery may not be able to completely remove all evidence of a scar. In fact, in the worst case scenario, it might make it worse. Think about the cost. The cost of scar revision surgery can be thousands of dollars, depending on what doctor and where you live. Consider the risks. While surgery can – in some cases – be the most effective treatment for reducing scars, it may also carry the greatest risk of complications including death. After you’ve learned about surgery and considered the risks, you need to spend a little time searching for the proper specialist. Your choice in specialist is important, as some surgeons are much more skilled than others.  Consider reviews online. Pick a surgeon you’re comfortable with. Think about recommendations from other medical professionals. Surgery is perhaps the most drastic way of reducing the appearance of old scars. Ultimately, while surgery can be successful, it may not be. In addition, it may offer dangers greater than homeopathic or prescription solutions. Different types of surgery include:  Grafts. A graft includes taking a piece of skin from another location on your body and grafting it to an area of damaged skin. Excision. Excision involves removing a scarred or damaged area of skin. Dermabrasion. Dermabrasion involves removing the top layer of skin to improve the appearance of a scarred area. Laser surgery. Laser surgery involves using a concentrated laser beam to remove a scarred area of skin.

Article in English: Scarification, also referred to as dethatching, is the process of vigorously raking or agitating the lawn in order to remove loose moss and other compact organic material.   If you have a small lawn, you can do this by hand. Simply rake the yard thoroughly and with ample force to lift the moss away. Use a spring-tine rake. If you have a larger lawn, you can get a dethatching blade for your lawn mower. Set the height adjustment so that the tines can touch the surface of the soil, but if you set it too low, you will also remove your grass. Dethatch your entire lawn using this method and dispose of the moss you remove. Alternatively, if you have a larger lawn you can also rent a power rake. These have a rotating spindle with flat blades attached that loosen thatch for clean up. You can rent on from most home improvement stores. It is especially important to dethatch your lawn if you apply a chemical herbicide to kill or weaken moss beforehand. Wait the recommended amount of time as indicated on the packaging before dethatching. Glyphosate-based herbicides are among the most popular currently on the market, but they tend to have mixed results when used to kill moss.  This chemical works by being absorbed through leaves and transferred into the root zone. The exact conditions needed to make glyphosate effective against moss are presently unknown, but for best results, apply the herbicide only if there are no competing plants that the herbicide might go after instead. As with any herbicide, follow the label instructions carefully. While these herbicides are less common, they tend to have a higher rate of success when used to kill moss. Iron or ferrous sulfate is recommended most often, but ammonium sulfate and copper sulfate herbicides are also effective.  Iron weakens the moss, often killing it in the process or making it easier to kill and remove manually. Spray a 5 gallon (20 L) mixture over a 1000 square feet (304.8 square meters) area. The mixture should be about 3 oz (90 ml) of iron sulfate to 5 gallons (20...

Article in English: Scarlet fever is caused by the bacteria Group A Strep, which is the same bacteria that causes strep throat. The most common early symptoms are a fever and a sore throat, as well as sore and swollen glands (lymph nodes) in your neck. This may or may not be followed by abdominal pain, vomiting, and/or chills.  With a Group A Strep infection, your tonsils are often coated with white chunks (called "exudate") that can be seen if you open your mouth very wide and look in a mirror. A sore throat caused by Group A Strep usually does not have a cough, which is one way that you can differentiate it from other infections. In addition to a sore throat, the hallmark of how scarlet fever presents is as a skin infection. The scarlet fever rash caused by Group A Strep is usually red with a rough feel, similar to sandpaper. The rash may be the first symptom to appear, or it may appear up to seven days following the onset of other signs and symptoms.  The rash typically begins by affecting your neck, your underarms, and your groin area. The rash can then spread to affect other areas of the body. The rash is often accompanied by a very red tongue (called a "strawberry tongue"), a flushed face, and red lines in various skin folds including the groin, armpits, knees, and elbows. Scarlet fever is most common in children and adolescents between the ages of five and 15. Therefore, if your child develops these symptoms, it is important to bring him or her to a doctor immediately. Keep in mind, however, that Group A Strep infections and scarlet fever can develop in people of any age.

Article in English: Scarlet fever is most likely to affect children between the ages of 5 and 15. When someone within that age range develops symptoms of scarlet fever, you should be particularly cautious and take him or her to the doctor as soon as possible. If your child already suffers from an infection or any other disease that will weaken his or her immune system, he or she will be prone to bacterial infections like scarlet fever. The bacteria that causes scarlet fever lives in the nose and throat and is communicated by contact with liquids spread through coughing and sneezing. If you or your child touch something that someone has coughed or sneezed on, you are susceptible to contracting the disease that causes scarlet fever. This will is most likely to occur in crowded areas. Because young children are most susceptible to the disease, schools are a particularly common place to contract the disease. Your child should wash his or her hands frequently and refrain from sharing utensils, linens, towels, or other personal items with people. Individuals can be contagious even after they have ceased to be symptomatic. Anyone diagnosed with scarlet fever should stay home for at least 24 hours after beginning treatment with antibiotics.

Article in English: Scarring is more common in cystic acne because of the collagen-damaging infection of deep tissue. The best treatment for scars depends on the type of scar. These types include:  Hypertrophic scars are raised up from the skin. These can be treated with creams. Atrophic scars are sunken but mostly shallow. These can be treated with peels, dermabrasion, or laser treatments. Boxcar-shaped scars are shallow and broad with jagged edges. These can be treated with lasers, dermabrasion, or excision (surgery). Ice pick-shaped scars are narrow and deep. Lasers, dermabrasion, and excision are effective treatments. Once a day, pat the cream onto any scar that is red and swollen. The cream may reduce the appearance of the scar. It works best on red, swollen, and raised scars. There are many creams that can help reduce the appearance of scars after acne. These usually contain ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, arbutin, or licorice extract.  These creams can be bought at pharmacies, beauty stores, and grocery stores. Apply these creams once or twice a day to your acne scars. This is most effective with raised or red scars. Chemical peels use potent acid formulas to lift off the top layer or layers of skin, minimizing the appearance of scars. These offer dramatic effects in a short time. The doctor will apply an acidic solution to your face.  Types of peels include glycolic acid, salicylic acid, and Trichloroacetic acid (TCA). Always wear sunscreen after getting a peel, as your skin will be more sensitive to the sun. You may feel burning or irritation during the peel. If it is too much to handle, tell your dermatologist. Stronger peels may cause peeling, redness, or swelling after the procedure. Your dermatologist will give you lotion to help reduce the discomfort.  Weaker peels can be done at home, but be careful. Ask your dermatologist for advice before trying a home peel. Dermabrasion sloughs off top layers of skin with a wire brush. Blemishes on the surface of the skin are usually removed, and deeper scars are...

Article in English: Scary movies are by nature designed to make people fearful. If you are bothered by frightening stimuli in a scary movie, this may encourage a fight or flight response. This can cause your body to release epinephrine. If you want to get an adrenaline rush, watch a scary movie online or rent a DVD.  Choose a theme that genuinely bothers you. If zombies have never really scared you, marathoning The Walking Dead is unlikely to encourage an adrenaline rush. However, if you have a longstanding fear of the paranormal you may be frightened by a movie like The Ring.  Pay attention to outside opinions. Certain movies are generally considered scary by critics and audiences. Psycho, Night of the Living Dead, Alien, and The Exorcist are considered amongst the scariest films of all time.  If you want an adrenaline rush, a movie with a lot of jump scares and surprise moments might be better than something's that frightening on a psychological level. Remember, you're trying to stimulate a fight or flight response so something that's direct and action-based will work best. Go for a scary movie with a lot of action. For example, a film from the Halloween franchise might be a better option than Rosemary Baby. If you're really into a computer or video game, you may get an adrenaline rush. Violent games tend to result in the release of adrenaline. Consider renting or purchasing an action-packed game with a high level of gore and violence. Military games and first person shooter games often encourage the release of adrenaline in the body. Risk-taking on occasion can release adrenaline in the body. In addition to causing an adrenaline rush, periodically taking small risks is healthy as it encourages you to step outside your comfort zone.  The idea here is not to do something that could potentially hurt you. Closing your eyes while driving will certainly give you an adrenaline rush, but it's absolutely not worth the risk. Instead, stick to behaviors that would normally make you uncomfortable. Ask someone out on a date. Sing karaoke...

Article in English: Schedule an appointment if you avoid social activities or feel that sweating has impacted your emotional well-being. You should also consult your doctor if excessive sweating develops suddenly or inexplicably, is accompanied by weight loss, or mainly happens at night.  You might have a condition called hyperhidrosis, or overactive sweat glands. Your sweating could also be related to another underlying medical condition. Your primary doctor might refer you to a dermatologist, or a skin specialist. Sweating along with difficulty breathing, chest pain, or pain in your arms, neck, or jaws could be a medical emergency. Get immediate help if you experience these symptoms. There are countless prescription medications that can cause sweating as a side effect. Ask your doctor if any medications you regularly take might be causing you to sweat. If necessary, ask if they can suggest an alternative medication with fewer side effects. Your doctor might recommend a prescription-strength antiperspirant, a drying cream, or an anticholinergic medication. Take any medication according to your doctor's instructions, and don't stop taking your medication without your doctor's approval.  Prescription antiperspirants and drying creams are typically the first step in medical treatment. Your doctor might prescribe an oral medication if these aren't effective. Oral anticholinergic medications are systemic, which means they cause a drying effect throughout your body. They can suppress your sweat glands, but they can also cause dry mouth and dry eyes. Your doctor can prescribe an at-home electric iontophoresis machine, or perform the treatment at their office. In this procedure, a mild electric current is run through water and is used to shut down your sweat glands.  A typical regimen consists of several 30-minute sessions per week. You’ll feel a tingling sensation during the procedure; tingling could persist for a few hours after treatment. Side effects are rare, but may include skin irritation, dryness, and blistering.

Provide a nesting area at least a week before you think she is due to give birth. You want to give her the space she needs by putting her in her bed or in a box with towels or blankets for comfort. Choose an area that is secluded, such as in a separate room, so that she can have privacy and quiet. Make food and water available near your dog so she has easy access. This will also make it possible for her to not leave her puppies to eat and drink. The pregnant dog should eat a high quality puppy food that is high in protein and calcium in the last 1/3 of her pregnancy. This will prepare her body to produce substantial amounts of milk. Your dog should eat puppy food in the final 1/3 of her pregnancy, and then until the puppies are weaned. Nursing mother dogs require more calories to make enough milk to feed their puppies.

Article in English: Schedule an appointment with your doctor if you suspect you have a hiatal hernia. Only medical tests can definitively diagnose a hiatal hernia. Talk to your doctor about any of the symptoms you've been having.  Keep track of your symptoms before your appointment so that you can be as specific as possible. While investigating for a hiatal hernia, your doctor may have you start taking medication for heartburn control. Your doctor might use 1 or several tests to determine whether or not you have a hiatal hernia. One of the simplest tests is an X-ray. Your doctor will have you drink a chalky liquid so that they will be able to view your esophagus, stomach, and upper intestine clearly in the X-ray. Your doctor may choose to rely on an upper endoscopy in addition to, or instead of, an X-ray. During this procedure, your doctor will insert a thin, flexible tube into your throat. There is a camera on the end that captures pictures of your esophagus, which your doctor will use to make a diagnosis.   You will likely have to schedule a separate appointment with a specialist, as your GP is unlikely to do this in their office. Ask to be sedated if you are nervous about this procedure. It's not painful, but it can be unnerving to many people. Your doctor might order this test in addition to others. A manometry measures how effectively you can swallow food and liquids. This helps determine the severity of the hiatal hernia. During this test, the technician will place a thin tube through your nose, down your throat, and into your stomach. You'll drink small amounts of water with the tube in place to measure your ability to swallow.  This test is not painful, but it might be uncomfortable or unpleasant.
