Article in English: A prong collar is not simply another piece of walking equipment like a harness or a gentle leader. It is a training device. A prong collar should not be used without consulting a professional dog trainer.  A certified dog trainer will likely have experience using  a prong collar or choke chain to discipline a dog. If used incorrectly, prong collars can be ineffective or even painful.  A prong collar is used as part of a longterm training process that teaches your dog why pulling is not appropriate. It should not be used for walks that occur outside of training time. Casually using the collar for walks does not teach your dog pulling is inappropriate. It only teaches him pulling while wearing the prong collar is inappropriate. Talk to a trainer about how and when to best use the collar. Many people are wary of prong collars due to the potential for pain. However, purchasing the right kind of prong collar lessens the likelihood your dog will experience pain while wearing it.  Quality prong collars are designed to gently pinch the loose skin around the dog's neck, providing negative reinforcement in the event of pulling and misbehaving. A good collar will never puncture your dog's skin. The right size is important. Collars are divided by weight distinction, so know how much your dog weighs before selecting a collar. If you buy a collar labeled "For 100-120 pounds" for a 75 pound dog, this is far more likely to cause your dog pain and discomfort than a properly sized collar. Buy a collar from a certified trainer or a certified trainer's website. Prong collars sold at chain stores like Petco are often not as well made and the prongs have sharp rather than rounded edges. This results in puncturing rather than pinching your dog's skin, which can lead to aggression during training sessions. Never buy a prong collar with rubber-tipped prongs. Many people think such an investment is more ethical but rubber can rub against your dog's hair, causing pain. Metal, on the other hand, moves smoothly over a dog's coat.

Article in English: A proper cleaning after usage removes stains that the moths seek. Wash all clothing, including your synthetics. Empty the pockets of lint. Remove sweat, perfume, and drink stains through your normal washing routine. Heat dry the clothing in a machine dryer to kill off any eggs or larvae present on the clothing. Don't starch your clothing before storage. It'll be food for the moths. Moths cannot get into plastic boxes or bags that are sealed, no matter how stained the clothing. Storing clean clothing in these containers is a great way to protect clothing without depending on toxic mothballs. You may see some people swear by cedar scents or chests. The scents don't work, and the chests only work because they function as sealed containers. Once or twice a month, take out clothing not sealed in containers. Set them in a dryer and put them through a drying cycle. Otherwise, allow them to be exposed to the sun for a few hours. The heat neutralizes moth eggs. After exposing the clothing to heat once or twice a month, jostle free any existing insects. Give the clothing a good, hard shake. Alternatively, pass a brush over all sides of the clothing to remove any hidden eggs and larvae.

Article in English: A proper diet for red-eared turtles (and similar aquatic turtle species) should have the following proportions: vegetables and water plants 50 percent, commercial foods 25 percent, and live protein 25 percent. Red eared turtles are happy to store-bought food turtle food, as well as food you've foraged for them.  Good vegetable choices include: dandelions (the ones in your yard are good if you don't use pesticides), carrot tops, mustard greens, romaine lettuce, carrots, bell pepper, and squash. The best greens are water plants like anacharis, water hyacinth, water lettuce, Frogbit, hornwort, and duckweed. While expensive in a pet store, these are easy to grow in a separate tank or pond, and they are cheap if you buy in bulk online. Red eared turtles don't usually eat fruit in the wild, so avoid it except for an absolute treat. If giving a treat, bananas are a good choice. For commercial food, look for something that has low protein and low fat. Dried shrimp are an absolute no-no! While turtles love the taste of dried shrimp, they offer no nutrients and turtles may refuse other foods for weeks. There are various conditions and diseases that can occur if the tank water is dirty, if the turtle's diet is poor or for other reasons. Some more common problems to watch for include:   Eye infections: The eyes will appear closed, swollen, puffed up or discharging. You may see pieces of tissue coming off. Eye infections are caused by bacteria. The turtle should be seen by a vet and probably needs a topical antibiotic plus upgrading the tank's filtration system.  Soft shell: If your turtle's shell is softer than it's supposed to be, your slider may not be getting enough light from your overhead light. If this happens, the turtle's dock may be too small, the water may be too deep, or the turtle is too weak to get on the dock. If this happens, contact your vet or a pet store. It can also mean that it has metabolic bone disease.  Furry mouth and refusal to eat: Your turtle has a bacterial infection and should be seen by...

Article in English: A proper personal flotation device should be a jacket or vest that covers the chest, stomach and back. The life vest must be properly fitted so that it does not slip up on the body when falling.  It should fit snugly but not be uncomfortable. Be sure to check the manufacturer’s label for weight limits and sizing information. You will want a pair of combination skis, which are suitable for beginners and have two skis with one ski having a half-foot binding behind the other foot. Skis for beginners will usually be wider and thus more stable on the water. They will be made for different weight ranges so it is important to pick a water ski that suits your size.  Check the manufacturer recommendations for the recommended weight ranges for the particular skis you are looking at. Kids skis are different in that they are smaller and easier for small children to control. They will usually come with a “trainer” option, or when you tie the skies together to prevent the skier from losing their balance and performing the splits. The bindings will usually be adjustable for a range of sizes to fit a variety of people. Trainer skis for kids can often be tied together, preventing the child from doing the “splits”. Kids usually have a hard time keeping control over their skis and keeping them together so this can be incredibly helpful when beginning. A water skiing rope will have a little stretch only and be 75 feet (22.86 meters) long from the handle to the opposite end. Do not use a wakeboarding rope, which will have no stretch, or a rope that is too stretchy. The rope should be labelled and marketed specifically for water skiing. There are seven different hand signals that a skier should learn. These are important for signalling the boat driver while water skiing.  A thumbs-up means go faster while a thumbs-down means slow down. It is important to remember this while skiing so that you do not accidentally ask for more speed. Bring thumb and forefinger together to signal OK. This tells the driver that the speed and path are...

Article in English: A proper seduction cannot take place if you're in a crowded area. To be intimate, you need an intimate space. This could be at the end of a night at a party together, or after one of you has invited the other over. A quiet, private setting is important because you don't want any external pressures affecting the way the seduction is received. Even if someone wants to be seduced, they may feel shy about it if they think their friends will be there to see it happen. Even if your friend finds you physically attractive, you will have a hard time of properly seducing them if you're bringing their mood down. Emphasize your positive side. This can be done as simply as making a conscious decision to be pleasant around the person you would like to seduce. Being cheerful leads to opportunities to flirt more openly, whether you consciously mean to or not. A proper seduction is very rarely a serious thing. Touch is an important part of flirting. It's the way that's going to break the two of you past the barrier between friends and something more. Light touching can include anything from a hug to a brief touch on the arm. These movements aren't risking a lot, and you can usually tell from the way they're reacting to it whether they'll accept bolder gestures. You can try to keep your flirtations subtle if you want to save the chance of pulling back if you decide your affections aren't being reciprocated. While it's normal to make eye contact with a friend while you're talking, prolonged eye contact usually hints at something more. Studies have shown that holding someone's gaze for an extended amount of time can provoke intense feelings. Even if you normally spend time with this friend, make a point of keeping eye contact while you seduce them. The reaction of eye contact can be positive or negative. A lot of it depends on whether the other person finds you physically attractive. If the friend you want to seduce is already close and comfortable enough with you, regular conversation should come naturally to the two of you....

Article in English: A prototype usually focuses on the main feature of the program. For example, if you're creating a personal organizer program, your prototype may be the calendar and event-adding function. Your prototype should be able to be used as its own program. It will be the foundation of everything else, so make sure its working properly. As you iterate on the feature, continue to refine it until it works smoothly and efficiently.  The prototype allows you to make rapid changes and then test them out. Have others test your prototype to ensure that it functions properly. Expect the prototype to change as you work on it. The whole point of the prototype is to experiment before committing. The prototype allows you to see if the features you want are possible before you dive into coding the program proper. If the prototype is doomed to fail, scrap it and return to the drawing board. It will save you a lot of headache down the line

Article in English: A proxy is a server that you connect to that allows you to get “outside” of your network. You connect to a proxy and route your traffic through it, so that your IP is masked and traffic appears to be coming from the proxy server. There are several types of proxies that you will run into as you research proxies. Each offers a certain degree of anonymity, and some are more secure than others. There are four main types of proxies:  Web-based proxies: The most common and easiest to use proxy. These are servers that you connect to through a browser do visit a visit a website anonymously. Open proxies: These are proxy servers that are either accidentally left open or are hacked. They are often not secure and can contain malicious software. It is recommended that you avoid open proxies. Anonymity networks: These are private networks that are run by users donating bandwidth. They are often incredibly slow and due to the fact that anyone can host bandwidth, they are fairly insecure. VPN (Virtual Private Network): These are private networks where you directly connect to a proxy server maintained by a proxy company or organization.

You should try them first, because why pay - but you may find they're not a great solution to access Facebook in China because:  China keeps finding and blocking them too. They often don't have good enough programming to handle the technology of social media Benefit of a proxy like this (as opposed to a VPN, which we talked about in the previous step) is that there's nothing to install on your computer - it's all web-based.

Article in English: A psychiatrist or family physician can perform an examination and speak with you about why you feel you might need antidepressants to treat your health condition. In most cases, meeting with a psychiatrist is considered ideal since psychiatrists specialize in mental health disorders, have more experience working with antidepressants, and can prescribe the antidepressants that will work best for you.  Research local psychiatrists who are covered under your insurance plan and set up an appointment by phone or online. You can get a referral from your primary care physician to go to a psychiatrist or you can find one by using a site like ZocDoc or Thero.org. Providing as many details as possible can give your doctor the insight needed to correctly diagnose your disorder and prescribe the right type of antidepressant.  For example, those diagnosed with bipolar disorder may need two different medications to manage manic and depressive phases, but someone with anxiety disorder may need one specific type. Mention physical symptoms of depression such as insomnia and lack of energy, as well as mental symptoms such as sadness or feelings of helplessness. Identifying the cause of your stress and depression can help your doctor properly diagnose and treat your condition and prescribe the right type of medication.  Be honest with your doctor when asked if there are any stressors in your life. For instance, perhaps you are in a toxic relationship currently that has caused you to become depressed.  Mention this to your doctor. It’s important to let your doctor know how long you’ve been experiencing symptoms of depression. In most cases, individuals who’ve been experiencing long-term stress are the best candidates for antidepressants. Those experiencing short-term stress or depression due to being separated from a partner or laid off from work may not be considered ideal candidates. Let them know of any medications that you’re currently on, including vitamins and birth control.  This can help your doctor better understand...

Article in English: A psychopath may end a conversation with a statement that opposes what they said at the beginning. Dishonesty and pathological lying is a sign of psychopathy. The person may talk about how disrespectful it is that your coworker always shows up late and does things they are not supposed to, and then moments later the person will break the rules without apology. The contradictions may not occur within the same conversation, so keep track of what is said over time. Log in a journal important information that you think might later be contradicted. Psychopaths talk excessively about the people in their lives because they view them as extensions of themselves. A psychopath will lie about the people in their life; they will even lie about their children.   Psychopaths are prone to giving out half-truths or disinformation. They have no problem keeping important information away from you. If the person has told you stories of betrayal or tragedy to explain their damaged family, friend, or romantic relationships, see if you can verify these stories independently. A psychopath refuses to take responsibility for their own actions and will blame others for things they have done.  If there is irrefutable evidence that they are at fault, they may then admit it, but will show no remorse.  A psychopath will also try very hard to control the narrative by professing an altered version of events, which may be very different from what you experienced. This can cause you to question yourself and is known as "gaslighting." On the other hand, because the psychopath displays a grandiose sense of self-worth, they may brag about or inflate their achievements, or even take credit for the work of others. Notice if they quickly and smoothly change topics when you broach a subject that might reveal their anti-sociality. They may rapidly dismiss discussions of their odd behavior by accusing you of causing too much drama, or by insisting that you are mentally ill and need professional help.

Article in English: A pulse oximetry test can give the saturation of oxygen in your blood by transmitting light through your tissues. It  You may need to have your blood oxygen level tested prior to surgery or other medical procedures, or if you have certain conditions, such as:  Sleep apnea A heart attack or congestive heart failure Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) Anemia Lung cancer Asthma Pneumonia Cystic fibrosis A current or possible need for mechanical ventilation to support your breathing The pulse oximetry method of measuring blood oxygen level is non-invasive, so there is usually little you need to do to prepare for the test. However, your doctor will still discuss the test with you and answer any questions you may have.  You may be asked to remove fingernail polish, if applicable. Your doctor may give you other specific instructions for preparation, based on your medical condition and history. There are very few risks associated with pulse oximetry. These are minimal, but include:  Skin irritation at the application site. This may occur with prolonged or repeated application of the probe sensor. Inaccurate readings in cases of smoke or carbon monoxide inhalation. Your doctor can let you know if there are any additional risks, based on your specific medical condition. The sensor used to measure the oxygen level of blood by pulse oximetry is a clip-like device called a probe. The probe sensor contains a light source, a light detector, and a microprocessor. The light emitted from the source on one side of the clip passes through your skin and reaches the detector on the other side of the clip. The microprocessor does calculations based on the information received from the detector in order to calculate the oxygen level of your blood with a very small margin of error. Usually, a finger, ear, or nose is chosen as the site to attach the sensor. The sensor will then use light to measure the oxygen level of your blood.  This method has the advantage of being painless and noninvasive, since no needles are involved. ...

Article in English: A quadratic equation is an equation that takes the form ax2+bx+c=0{\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c=0}. A quadratic equation has two solutions, which means a line written in this form is a parabola and will have two x-intercepts. For example, the equation x2+3x−10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0} is a quadratic equation, so this line will have two x-intercepts. The formula is x=−b±b2−4ac2a{\displaystyle x={\frac {-b\pm {\sqrt {b^{2}-4ac}}}{2a}}}, where a{\displaystyle a} equals the coefficient of the second-degree term (x2{\displaystyle x^{2}}), b{\displaystyle b} equals the coefficient of the first-degree term (x{\displaystyle x}), and c{\displaystyle c} equals the constant. Make sure you substitute the correct values for each variable from the equation of the line. For example, if the equation of your line is x2+3x−10=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+3x-10=0}, your quadratic formula will look like this: x=−3±32−4(1)(−10)2(1){\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(1)(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}. To do this, first complete all of the multiplication. Make sure you pay close attention to all positive and negative signs. For example:x=−3±32−4(−10)2(1){\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}-4(-10)}}}{2(1)}}}x=−3±32+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}} Square the b{\displaystyle b} term. Then, add this number to the other number under the square root sign. For example:x=−3±32+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {3^{2}+40}}}{2}}}x=−3±9+402{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {9+40}}}{2}}}x=−3±492{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3\pm {\sqrt {49}}}{2}}} Since the quadratic formula has a ±{\displaystyle \pm }, you will solve once by adding, and once by subtracting. Solving by adding will give you your first x{\displaystyle x} value. For example:x=−3+492{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3+{\sqrt {49}}}{2}}}x=−3+72{\displaystyle x={\frac {-3+7}{2}}}x=42{\displaystyle x={\frac {4}{2}}}x=2{\displaystyle x=2} This will give you the second value for x{\displaystyle x}.

Article in English: A quadratic equation means that you have at least one variable that is squared. It will typically be written in the formula y=ax(squared)+bx+c.  Graphing a quadratic equation will give you a parabola, which is a ‘U’ shaped curve. You will need to find at least three point to graph it, beginning with the vertex which is the centermost point. If we use the example y=x(squared)+2x+1, then a=1, b=2, and c=1. Each letter corresponds to the number directly before the variable it sits next to in the equation. If there is no number before ‘x’ in the equation, then the variable is equal to ‘1’ because it is assumed that there is 1x. To find the vertex, the point in the middle of the parabola, use the formula -b/2a. In our example, this equation would change to -2/2(1), which equals to -1. You now know the vertex, -1, which is a point on the x-axis. However, this is only one point of the vertex coordinate. To find the corresponding y-coordinate as well as two other points on your parabola, you will need to make a table. Place the x-coordinate for the vertex in the top center column. Choose two more x-coordinates an equal number in each direction (positive and negative) from the vertex point. For example, we could go up two and down two, making the two numbers we fill in the other blank table spaces ‘-3’ and ‘1’. You can choose any numbers you want to fill in the top row of the table, as long as they are whole numbers and the same distance from the vertex. If you want to have a clearer graph, you can find five coordinates instead of three. Doing this is the same process as above, but give your table five columns instead of three. One at a time, take the numbers you have selected to represent the x-coordinates from your table and insert them into the original equation. Solve for ‘y’.  Following our example, we could use our chosen coordinate of ‘-3’ to substitute into the original formula of y=x(squared)+2x+1. This would change to y= -3(squared)+2(3)+1, giving an answer of y=4. Place the new y-coordinate underneath the...

Article in English: A quadratic function has the form ax2 + bx + c: f(x) = 2x2 + 3x + 4. The shape of a quadratic function on a graph is parabola pointing up or down. There are different methods to calculating the range of a function depending on the type you are working with. The easiest way to identify the range of other functions, such as root and fraction functions, is to draw the graph of the function using a graphing calculator. The vertex of a quadratic function is the tip of the parabola. Remember, a quadratic equation is of the form ax2 + bx + c. To find the x-coordinate use the equation x = -b/2a. This equation is a derivative of the basic quadratic function which represents the equation with a zero slope (at the vertex of the graph, the slope of the function is zero).  For example, find the range of 3x2 + 6x -2. Calculate x-coordinate of vertex: x = -b/2a = -6/(2*3) = -1 Plug the x-coordinate into the function to calculate the corresponding y-value of the vertex. This y-value denotes the edge of your range for the function.  Calculate y-coordinate: y = 3x2 + 6x – 2 = 3(-1)2 + 6(-1) -2 = -5. The vertex of this function is (-1, -5). Choose any other x-value and plug it into the function to calculate the corresponding y-value. If the y-value is above the vertex, the parabola continues to +∞. If the y-value is below the vertex, the parabola continues to -∞.  Use the x-value -2: y = 3x2 + 6x – 2 = y = 3(-2)2 + 6(-2) – 2 = 12 -12 -2 = -2. This yields the coordinate (-2, -2). This coordinate tells you that the parabola continues above the vertex (-1, -5); therefore, the range encompasses all y-values above -5. The range of this function is [-5, ∞) Like the domain, the range is written with the same notation. Use a bracket when the number is included in the domain and use a parenthesis when the domain does not include the number. The letter U indicates a union that connects parts of a domain that may be separated by a gap.  For example, a range of [-2, 10) U (10, 2] includes -2 and 2, but does not include number 10. Always...

Article in English: A quadratic function is one that has an x2{\displaystyle x^{2}} term. It may or may not contain an x{\displaystyle x} term without an exponent. There will be no exponents larger than 2. The general form is f(x)=ax2+bx+c{\displaystyle f(x)=ax^{2}+bx+c}. If necessary, combine similar terms and rearrange to set the function in this general form. For example, suppose you start with f(x)=3x+2x−x2+3x2+4{\displaystyle f(x)=3x+2x-x^{2}+3x^{2}+4}. Combine the x2{\displaystyle x^{2}} terms and the x{\displaystyle x} terms to get the following in general form: f(x)=2x2+5x+4{\displaystyle f(x)=2x^{2}+5x+4} A quadratic function results in the graph of a parabola. The parabola either opens upward or downward. If a{\displaystyle a}, the coefficient of the x2{\displaystyle x^{2}} term, is positive, then the parabola opens upward. If a{\displaystyle a} is negative, then the parabola opens downward. Look at the following examples:  For f(x)=2x2+4x−6{\displaystyle f(x)=2x^{2}+4x-6}, a=2{\displaystyle a=2} so the parabola opens upward. For f(x)=−3x2+2x+8{\displaystyle f(x)=-3x^{2}+2x+8}, a=−3{\displaystyle a=-3} so the parabola opens downward. For f(x)=x2+6{\displaystyle f(x)=x^{2}+6}, a=1{\displaystyle a=1} so the parabola opens upward. If the parabola opens upward, you will be finding its minimum value. If the parabola opens downward, you will find its maximum value. The value of −b2a{\displaystyle -{\frac {b}{2a}}} tells you the x{\displaystyle x} value of the vertex of the parabola. When the quadratic function is written in its general form of ax2+bx+c{\displaystyle ax^{2}+bx+c}, use the coefficients of the x{\displaystyle x} and x2{\displaystyle x^{2}} terms as follows:  For a function f(x)=x2+10x−1{\displaystyle f(x)=x^{2}+10x-1}, a=1{\displaystyle a=1} and b=10{\displaystyle b=10}. Therefore, find the x-value of the vertex as:  x=−b2a{\displaystyle x=-{\frac {b}{2a}}} x=−10(2)(1){\displaystyle x=-{\frac {10}{(2)(1)}}} x=−102{\displaystyle x=-{\frac {10}{2}}} x=−5{\displaystyle x=-5}   As a second example, consider the...

Article in English: A quadratic inequality uses the same formula as the quadratic formula but will use an inequality symbol instead. For example, it will look like y<ax(squared)+bx+c. Using the complete steps from above in “Graphing a Quadratic Equation,” find three coordinates to graph your parabola. Although you have enough points to make your complete parabola, don’t draw the shape yet. Because you are graphing a quadratic inequality, the line you draw will be a bit different.  If your inequality symbol was “greater than” or “less than” (> or <), then you will draw a dashed line between the coordinates. If your inequality symbol was “greater than or equal to” or “less than or equal to” (> or <), then the line you draw will be solid. End your lines with arrow points to show that the solutions extend beyond the range of your graph. In order to show multiple solutions, shade the portion of the graph in which the solution could be found. To find out which part of the graph should be shaded, test a pair of coordinates in your formula. An easy set to use is (0,0). Note whether or not these coordinates lie within or outside of your parabola.  Solve the inequality with the coordinates you’ve chosen. If we use an example of y>x(squared)-4x-1 and substitute the coordinates (0,0), then it will change to 0>0(squared)-4(0)-1. If the solution to this is true and the coordinates are inside the parabola, shade inside the parabola. If the solution is false, shade outside of the parabola. If the solution to this is true and the coordinates are outside the parabola, shade the outside of the parabola. If the solution is false, shade inside the parabola.

It should have multiple temperature settings so that you can choose what’s right for your hair’s texture and thickness. These irons may be in the pricier range, but most very inexpensive flat irons only offer a single setting which is too high (usually 450 degrees) and will damage your hair with time.  Ideally, you want to use a flat iron that has a temperature gauge with numbers rather than simple On, Off, Low, and High settings. This way you can gauge exactly how much heat your hair is getting.  Find an iron that is an inch and a half wide or smaller. Irons larger than that won’t be able to get closer enough to your scalp.  Ceramic plates ensure that the heat is evenly distributed across your hair as you straighten, and ceramic is good for most hair types and textures. Stay away from “ceramic coated” flat irons, which can dry out your hair.  If your hair is curly, however, you may need gold or titanium plates. You will commonly find heat protector sprays made specifically for use with flat irons; there are also numerous creams and serums on the market, and some mousses contain heat protection. Some frequently recommended choices included Living Proof’s Straight Spray, Moroccan Oil (for thick or coarse hair), or products made with silicone. While these won’t make your hair straight, they can add moisture to your hair and therefore help to prepare it for the process of straightening. Alternately, you may want to try a strengthening shampoo if you find that frequent straightening makes your hair weak. Typical hairbrushes, which are made of nylon and plastic, cause static. But a brush made boar bristles and nylon will give your hair shape and polish and eliminate the fly-aways. These products will help keep your hair healthy by increasing moisture. Since they may make your hair oilier or heavier, try using just once a week. Some options include Luster’s Pink Original Oil Moisturizer and Aveda’s Dry Remedy.

Article in English: A quick and cost-effective way to try and remove a hand wart is to exfoliate it with a pumice stone. Pumice is naturally abrasive and works well to sand away the surface layer of the wart, especially if its covered by a thick callous Although pumice stone is effective at removing surface layers, it can't get to the deeper "roots" of the wart below the skin's surface. As such, a pumice stone should be used in conjunction with some sort of ointment to destroy the deeper parts of the hand wart.  Before exfoliating your wart with pumice, soak your hand in warm water for about 15 minutes to soften the skin up. Be cautious when using pumice on smaller warts not covered by a callous. It may cause an abrasion / cut and draw blood. For smaller, more fleshy hand warts, consider using a small emery board to exfoliate it. People with diabetes or peripheral neuropathy should not exfoliate warts on their hands or feet with pumice because their reduced nerve sensations may lead to tissue damage. Another way of removing successive layers of a wart is by applying salicylic acid to it. Salicylic acid dissolves the keratin (protein) of the surface of warts and any calloused skin covering them. However, it can also damage or irritate healthy skin surrounding warts, so be careful when you apply the liquid, gel, ointment or patch — up to twice daily. Before applying salicylic acid, soak the surrounding skin and file down the surface layers of the wart with pumice or an emery board (as mentioned above) so the medication can penetrate deeper. Cover with a bandage overnight for best results. It can take many weeks to get rid of a large hand wart using salicylic acid, so be patient,  Salicylic acid is an over-the-counter (OTC) wart medication widely available in most pharmacies. Some products also contain dichloroacetic or trichloroacetic acids, which help to burn the wart away. For most hand warts, a 17% salicylic acid solution or a patch at 15% strength will be effective.  Remember that some hand warts disappear due to your body's...

Article in English: A quick upgrade that can help you reload much faster is the creation of a dual magazine. If your Nerf gun uses a clip-style magazine, you can tape two of them together, with one upside down. When you run out of ammunition, you can just flip it over  and keep firing without having to locate a new clip or refill the old one. If your Nerf gun uses a spring or springs to fire darts, you can increase your range dramatically by putting in more powerful springs.  Take the gun apart and remove the springs. A 20 pound spring in a similar size to the one original to the gun will give you much more firepower, although you may need to reinforce the body of your gun with some PVC pipe, as the additional force can make the body fall apart.  For advanced Nerf modifiers, you can further increase your range by replacing the barrel with a brass tube, and by removing the air restrictors that limit how much air can pass through the barrel. Specific details for these tasks will vary depending on your gun, but you can find instructions online for most newer guns.

Article in English: A quick way to check the authenticity of a Samsung J7 is to check its IMEI in an IMEI-checking website. There are a few different ways you can find the number:  Dial *#06# from the J7. As soon as you enter the final #, the IMEI will appear on the screen (it will say “IMEI” just above the number). Look for the IMEI on the packaging, or under the battery. You’ll have to slide the back cover from the J7 to access the battery. If you’re buying a J7 online, ask the seller (if you’re buying online) to give you the number. You don’t need a user account or password to use this tool—just type the IMEI into the blank. Now you’ll see a bunch of information about your phone. You should see the word “Samsung” next to “Brand.” If you don’t, the phone is not a legitimate Samsung product.

Article in English: A quick way to improve your reputation is to do good deeds. Be careful: if you've recently developed a bad reputation, you might seem desperate or like you're overcompensating by doing a bunch of good deeds. This isn't a quick fix. You must do good deeds consistently for your reputation to improve, otherwise you risk seeming insincere.  It is hard and time consuming to build a reputation, but quick and easy to ruin it. Consistency is crucial to firmly establishing your reputation.  Get your co-workers coffee, or offer to pick up a shift if they need time off. Offer your friends help, like a ride or a hand before they need to ask. Go out of your way to make sure people are feeling okay if you sense there might be something wrong. There are a great number of ways to volunteer your time. Care for the elderly or disabled, community gardens and events, as well as church-centered opportunities all are great ways to volunteer.  Animal shelters are also great opportunities to help. By giving up your time in the service of others, you can do a great deal to improve your reputation.  If you're still in school, see what sort of opportunities they can help you find. Many public schools and colleges offer different volunteer opportunities for students. Some businesses offer volunteering programs that may come with perks. Talk to your supervisor or HR department to see what sort of opportunities they provide. Give talks or lectures at a local school, organization, library or civic group on a topic you know and that would be helpful for others. Become compassionate towards others with bad reputations. By being nice to those who are not thought well of, after having gained insight from your reputation experience, you can develop positive perceptions. Take the opportunity to see the people who have bad reputations around you that may be in need of a friend. Go above and beyond. Do something amazing. Learn to play a musical instrument.

Article in English: A quiet place with a suitable environment. Whether it is your room or a library, choose an atmosphere that is silent & free of distractions in order to concentrate. It should be away from the TV, pets, and anything else that spells for an easy distraction. What's more, you want a comfy chair and good lighting. There should be no strain on your back, neck, or eyes – pain is also a distraction.  For example, do not study right in front of a TV; you will only do your homework when the advertisements come up. Go to get a "snip" of TV or radio only as a quick break – exactly as if it's a few moments to go to get a drink of water or "fresh air" for a minute. Sit in a chair at a table or desk while you study. Don't study in bed, except maybe reading on top of your covers, propped upright with a bright reading light behind you. However, don't get under the covers – you'll just want to fall asleep. What's more, you'll start to associate your bedroom with studying and that's definitely an impulse you want to avoid. A standing desk does a remarkable job making you focus on your task (in addition to being a healthier option to sitting). Your pencils and pens, highlighters and books should be within your reach so that you are not distracted while studying. Organize the area, if need be, so the clutter doesn't clutter your mind. There should be no reason you have to get up, interrupting you from being "in the zone." Even if you're not sure you'll need it, it should be in your "study area." All the textbooks, notebooks, and papers you need (remember that syllabus) should be within arm's reach. This is quite literally a set-up for success. Use your laptop if it is necessary for your studies otherwise keep your laptop away from you. Try to keep it to something simple that you can repeat, like a few nuts, blueberries/strawberries, 1/4 an apple, or break off a piece of a dark chocolate bar. Keep water nearby, too – don't drink too much coffee, caffeinated teas, or any energy drinks  (you'll be up all night long). They...

Article in English: A quitclaim deed transfers whatever interest you have in a property, if any, to another person. These deeds are frequently used when adding another name to a deed, or changing a name on a deed, because they are simple, inexpensive, and don’t typically require the property owner to hire an attorney.  The form will include a blank for your name, the names of the people to whom you want to transfer the property, and the legal description of the property (which you can copy from your old deed).  You want to transfer the property from yourself to your spouse and yourself, making the two of you joint owners. This is also where you specify how the two of you will own the property. Without a notary seal, the deed isn’t a legal transfer. Some counties also require additional witnesses.  In some areas, your spouse also must sign the deed. You can ask at the county recorder’s office when you pick up the form, although usually you can tell by whether the deed includes blanks for both of you to sign. Depending on how you claim the property, you may also need a spousal affidavit.  The affidavit states that the two of you are a married couple, and must be signed by both of you under oath in the presence of a notary. For example, if you’re claiming the property as tenants by the entirety or as community property, the deed would have to be accompanied by a spousal affidavit because those methods of claiming property are only available to married couples. Once it’s completed and signed, your county recorder’s office, sometimes called a register of deeds, must record it so it becomes part of the official property record of the county. There will be a fee for this. You also may have to pay any property taxes that have been reassessed as a result of the change in ownership.

Article in English: A rabbit's cage or hutch should be cleaned out every week. Have a friend supervise your bunny or put it in a pen or carrier while you give the cage a thorough cleaning. Throw out the old hay and newspaper, wash the cage with hot, soapy water, dry it, and fill it with clean hay and newspaper.  Clean out the pellet dish and water bottle every few days. Change the litter box every day. Bunnies don't like to be bathed since they take care of that themselves. However, they do well with a light brushing. Use a soft-bristled brush to take care of your bunny's fur every once in a while. Mini lops molt when they're adults, and when you see this happening, you can help remove the fur using a wire brush.  If your rabbit gets dirty outside, you can wash him using rabbit shampoo. Never use human shampoo on a rabbit. If you notice your rabbit's nails getting too long, you may need to trim them. It may be difficult to find a vet who will look at your rabbit since some animal vets only treat cats and dogs. Look for an "exotic animal" vet if your local vet won't see your rabbit. Take him in for an annual checkup and any time you notice symptoms of illness, which could include the following:  Runny nose or eye Refusal to eat Red urine High temperature Diarrhea Permanently tilted head Lumps or abscesses under the fur

Article in English: A rabbit's personality determines what toys they'll like and dislike. Before you start gathering toys for your rabbit, try to get to know him and figure out his preferences. Knowing what stimuli he responds to can help you plan playtime.  At first, allow your rabbit to leave his cage/pen on his own and come to you. Let him explore a rabbit safe area. Pay attention to what he interacts with, and how. Some rabbits are shredders, meaning they like to tear apart paper and tissues in play. Some like to toss toys with their teeth and chase after them. Some enjoy knocking things over. Pay attention to your rabbit's behavior and see what kind of games he likes to indulge in.  Rabbits are easily scared, so try to avoid making any sudden movements. Never yell at a rabbit, as this will encourage your rabbit to stay away from you. Choose a variety of toys you can use to play with your rabbit at home. Base your selection off your rabbit's specific personality.  For a rabbit who enjoys throwing, you can buy rabbit safe toys at a local pet store or department store. Bird toys also work well for this kind of play, as they're made to be easy to grip. If you're on a budget, you can use cardboard tubes from paper towel or toilet paper to save money.  Rabbits who like to chew and dig can funnel this behavior into play. Straw mats and boxes full of shredded or scrap paper can provide hours of entertainment. Plastic baby toys and plastic balls are also great, as they're sturdy and will withstand a lot of play before they need replacing.  Logic toys are great for curious rabbits, and can be found at pet stores. These toys generally involve a plastic or cardboard box that contains an enticing item, like a rubber ball or a treat. The rabbit must figure out how to open the box in order to get his reward.  As some rabbits love pushing things over, consider investing in children's bowling pins. Rabbits will love knocking them over and then having you reposition them. While playing with your rabbit is great fun, you need to make sure...

Article in English: A radiator that needs bleeding has cool air trapped in its upper portions. Thus, when you turn on the heat, either the entire radiator will feel cold or the top of the radiator will feel cold while the bottom feels warm. Unfortunately, a cold radiator can also signify other problems. Before proceeding, check for these other common radiator issues listed below. If none seem to fit, your radiator probably needs a simple bleeding. Be careful - radiators can get quite hot. Protect your hands when you're feeling a radiator for warmth.  If you have multiple radiators in your house and all of them are cold or lukewarm, you probably have a larger issue with your heating system - your water heater may be malfunctioning or you may have a buildup of sludge or sediment somewhere in your heating system (see: How to Flush a Water Heater.) If your radiator problem is accompanied by an accumulation of water beneath the radiator, your radiator has a leak. Try turning your heat off, then tightening the nut(s) on your radiator's inlet valve. If this doesn't fix the problem, the nut may be corroded - replace them or call a professional. If the radiators on the upper floors of your house aren't heating up but the radiators on the lower floors are, your heating system may not be operating at a high enough pressure to get hot water to the top floors of your house. If you've decided to bleed your radiator your first step should be to find something to open the radiator's "bleed valve." Look for a small valve at the top of one end of your radiator. On this valve, there will usually be small square bit which can be turned to adjust the valve. Radiator keys, cheap metal implements designed for opening and closing radiator valves, are available at most hardware stores. Find a radiator key that's the correct size for your valve or, alternatively, search your tool chest for a small wrench or other tool that's the right size to turn the valve.  Some modern radiators are equipped with valves that are designed to be turned with a simple...

Article in English: A random orbit spinner is an electric sanding tool that spins a sheet of sandpaper in random directions on a flat surface. Just attach the sandpaper, hold the tool by the handle, and move it across the surface you want to sand. They also suck up accumulating dust as you sand. Buy a random orbital spinner online or at your local hardware store. Random orbital spinners use circular sandpaper sheets that come with holes used to attach them to the device. Get these sheets wherever you get your device. Get a package of sheets in each grade: coarse, medium, and fine. Belt sanders use a fast moving belt made of sandpaper to sand down surfaces. Belt sanders are useful if you have a lot of excess material to remove from a piece and you want to do it quickly. Attach a sandpaper belt made of your selected grade to the tool and, while holding it by the handle, run it across a surface. Buy a belt sander online or at your local hardware store.  You’ll need to buy sandpaper sheets designed specifically for a belt sander. Belt sanders are powerful and they sand down surfaces fast. Avoid using a belt sander for smaller projects or you could ruin your piece. Benchtop sanders are large electric tools with a spinning sandpaper blade that sits perpendicular to the workbench it’s on. Next to the blade is a small shelf where you hold the piece you want to sand and guide it into the sandpaper. You can easily sand detailed or curved edges using a benchtop sander. Buy one online or at your local hardware store.

Article in English: A rash that is caused by allergies will generally look like swollen red bumps or circles. When your body releases histamine in response to an allergy, small blood vessels in your skin can expand and can cause the surrounding skin to swell up and become red. These hives are one of the most visible ways to tell if you have allergies. Your top layer of skin (which is referred to in the medical world as your epidermis) contains special nerve fibers called C-fiber that create the sensation of feeling itchy. When your body reacts to an allergen, your skin cells can become inflamed, in turn affecting or damaging this C-fiber. When this damage occurs, you feel itchy. When you get allergies, the most common places you will feel itchy include your eyes, nose, ears, throat, lips, or around your mouth. When inflammation reaches the breathing tubes where air passes through, the tubes becomes narrow. This narrowing of your airways can lead to feeling like you can’t catch your breath or breathe in fully. This is called shortness of breath and can be very dangerous if the inflammation becomes too much. If you are having trouble breathing, take an antihistamine (allergy medication), let someone know what you’re going through and, if necessary, get yourself to a hospital. The chemical histamine is released into nearby cells if your body’s immune system detects a harmful foreign body (in this case, allergens). Histamine causes small blood vessels in your body to expand and become inflamed. When this inflammation reaches your throat and airways, your breathing tubes become narrow, making it harder for you to breath. What results is a high-pitched whistling sound each time you breathe.

Article in English: A ratio is an expression used to compare two quantities. A simplified ratio can be taken as is, but if a ratio has not yet been simplified, you should do so to make the quantities easier to compare and understand. In order to simplify a ratio, you divide both terms (both sides of the ratio) by the same number. This process is equivalent to reducing a fraction.   Example: 15:21{\displaystyle 15:21} Note that neither number in this example is a prime number. Since that is the case, you'll need to factor both numbers to determine whether or not the two terms have any identical factors that can cancel each other in the simplification process. A factor is a whole number (or expression) that can evenly divide into the term, leaving another whole number (or expression) as the quotient. Both terms in the ratio must share at least one factor (other than the number 1) or the ratio cannot be simplified. Before you can determine if the terms do share a factor, you must discover what the factors of each term are.  Example: The number 15 has four factors: 1,3,5,15{\displaystyle 1,3,5,15}  151=15{\displaystyle {\frac {15}{1}}=15} 153=5{\displaystyle {\frac {15}{3}}=5} In a separate space, list all the factors of the ratio's second term. At this point do not consider the factors of the first term; focus only on factoring this second term.  Example: The number 21 has four factors: 1, 3, 7, 21  211=21{\displaystyle {\frac {21}{1}}=21} 213=7{\displaystyle {\frac {21}{3}}=7} Look at the factors for both terms of the ratio. Circle, list, or otherwise identify any factors that appear in both lists. If the only shared factor is 1, then the ratio is already in its simplest form, and no further work needs to be done. If the two terms of the ratio have other shared factors, however, sort through them and identify the highest factor common to both lists. This number is the greatest common factor (GCF).  Example: Both 15 and 21 share two common factors: 1 and 3 The GCF for the two terms of the original ratio is 3. Since both terms of...

Article in English: A reality check is when you ask yourself: "Am I awake, or am I dreaming?" This will ultimately help you tell the difference between the dream world and reality when you are asleep.  Reality checks call attention to a fundamental difference between dreams and reality: in dreams, states are fluid; in reality, states stay the same. In dreams, text will change into different words; trees change color and shape; clocks tell time backwards instead of forwards. In reality, text stays the same, trees stay rooted in the ground, and clocks move clockwise.  A good reality check to perform, both in reality and dreams, is looking at text. Suppose a poster in your room says "Justin Bieber." Turn away for a minute, and look at the poster again. If it still says "Justin Bieber," the reality check says that you're awake. If you turn away, then look at the poster and it says "Selena Gomez," the reality check will tell you that you're dreaming. When you're having a dream and realize that you are having a dream, then you start to be able to control most of what happens in your dream.  When you make the leap and realize you're dreaming, try to calm yourself down. If you get too excited about finally being able to control your dreams, you might accidentally wake up from excitement. Try small activities at first. Again, this is about staying in control of your excitement and not accidentally waking up. Even mundane things like cooking food, climbing a ladder, or skateboarding can be fun when you realize you're in full control. A lot of people enjoy flying, swimming deep into the ocean, and time travel. Try moving huge objects, passing through walls, or even telekinesis. The dreams that you can have are limited only by your imagination!

Article in English: A recirculating or front-venting microwave can be installed beneath a counter without any further effort. Other types may require more advanced ventilation installation. Be aware of the requirements of your model before you begin installation. Other types of microwave may be more suited for an over the range installation, require a new ventilation hood, or even necessitate a full new ventilation system. Follow these methods for finding and marking these vertical wall supports. Your microwave will need to be fastened to at least one of them.  If you have one, use an electronic or magnetic stud finder to search for nails. Alternately, tap lightly on the wall with a hammer. When you hear a solid "thunk" instead of a hollow sound, you've likely found a wall stud. If you're not certain whether you've found a stud, drill a test hole and use a bent wire or coat hanger to search for solid objects in your wall.  Once you've located the center of one wall stud, its closest neighbors are usually located either 16 inches or 24 inches to each side.  Use a small nail to probe the wall stud(s) and determine the width.  Draw a vertical line down the center of the wall studs once you've found them. This flat metal plate should be level and the top tabs should butt against the base of the cabinet or cabinet frame.  If your microwave came with a wall template, tape that instead as a drilling guide before you attach the plate. Use a level to ensure your microwave isn't installed at a slant. Remove any decorative trimming from the cabinet preventing you from placing the mounting plate correctly. If the front of the cabinet has an overhang, place the mounting plate below the back of the cabinet by an equal amount. Otherwise the overhang will block access to the microwave. For a microwave that requires base-of-cabinet attachments, you may need to saw off the overhang instead. Follow these steps to determine which size holes to drill and where.  The bottom edge of the plate should have an area covered in holes. Use a marker to draw...

Article in English: A red flag is anything that could be a potential problem in the future. It’s easy to get caught up in the romance, but it might be best to take a step back and evaluate the person you are seeing for who they really are. Try thinking about all of the things that you know about them, and make note of anything that is questionable.  If he says he’s not ready for commitment, and that is something you are looking for, you should believe him and not try to change his mind. Red flags can also be things like a short temper, tumultuous relationships in his past, or indications of a substance abuse problem. Since you’re looking for a strong relationship, you should take your time getting to know them. The longer you spend with them, the better an idea you will have of who they really are. Don’t feel like you need to rush into something just because it feels good. One of the most exciting and fun parts of dating is getting to experience new things together. Pay attention to how your partner reacts to different situations and ask yourself if you’re comfortable with the way they handle different stressors or uncomfortable environments. For example, holidays are sometimes very high-stress situations and environments for people. How your partner acts in this environment might be a sign of how they’ll react in other high-stress situations. If you begin to feel uncomfortable, uneasy, or afraid in your relationship, don’t be afraid to leave immediately. Your partner should never threaten, hurt, or ignore you. Confide in someone you trust and cut all ties with anyone who is unhealthy for your mental and physical health.

You're likely to remove small particles that have been thoroughly soaked with or cloaked by smoke, if not remove some of the smell itself.    It goes without saying, but it needs to be said. After cleaning the ashtray out, spray some ordinary air freshener into it out rub around with an absorbent kitchen paper.  This will leave a thin layer of the air freshener in the ashtray. The layer is not enough for the ashtray to be flammable but it is enough to have retain a pleasant scent. Of course, if you're trying to hide the fact that you've been cleaning the car, or that the car needed cleaning in the first place, then hanging a loud car freshener is likely to attract some suspicion. But if you're just concerned with removing noxious odors from your vehicle, then hanging an air freshener or vent can make a big difference. Unlock the doors, turn the engine on, and put your car's heat and air into recirculate while you clean the rest of the car. As you continue to clean the car and remove some of the smoky odors, the new, fresh air will recirculate throughout the entire cabin and improve the quality of air in your car. If you really think your car needs it, consider replacing the cabin's air filter. Consider changing your car's air filters every 12,000–15,000 miles (19,000–24,000 km), or at least once a year. If you can't remember the last time you changed them or had them replaced, do yourself a favor and go for it. It should make a difference.

Article in English: A regular poker game at your local casino is all well and good, but to make some serous dough, you need large cash games and tournaments. Visit a few of the biggest regional casinos in your area and hit up local poker organizations for money-making opportunities. Big tournaments (like World Poker Tour) have $10,000 buy-ins. This kind of step is reserved for those with a chunk of change to spare. Make sure you're financially stable before you take a leap like this. Poker has a long history of greats and experts whose combined knowledge is just waiting to be tapped into. Read books, watch videos, take classes. Find inspiration in those who have done it to show you that you can do it, too.  Start out with Phil Gordon's 'Little Green Book' or 'Super System II' by Doyle Brunson. You find that there's aspects of the game you haven't even thought about. Some poker websites are scams, trying to take your money to give you material that you won't find helpful, especially if you're already quite good. Do your research before purchasing anything to know if you're getting something legitimate. If you know a few poker players who could teach you something, tap into your resources. Having a poker coach (even when you're quite good) can drastically change your game for the better. You'll get the benefit of learning something and they'll get the benefit of teaching someone something they care so much about. It's a win-win. As you start schooling at your local casinos and card rooms, seek out bigger and bigger tournaments to be a part of. Always take baby steps, though, and be realistic about your money situation and your skill. In this realm, slow and steady wins the race. By now you likely have hundreds of connections that can keep you filled in on the poker world. Do research online, sign up for newsletters, and keep in contact with people who are often part of tournaments and games you're interested in. Once you make enough to live on and know that you can keep it up, it's time to quit that 9-5. But remember: now you have...

Article in English: A rejection can be a blessing in disguise if it helps you find happiness in other people's company. To get out of your rejection funk, spend quality time with friends and go to social events you normally wouldn't. If you’re feeling up to it, ask a different crush out or go on a blind date. While pursuing new relationships, you may find someone you like even more than your previous crush. To start off, try picking up a brand new hobby or an old pastime that you haven’t touched in a while. If that isn’t enough to take your mind off things, try setting a personal goal you want to achieve. The busier you are, the easier time you’ll have getting over the rejection. Some major goals you can occupy yourself with include:  Training to participate in a 5K or other athletic event. Creating a work of art like a short story, a painting, or even a short film or skit. Learning an entirely new skill like cooking or woodworking. Even if a girl rejects you once, you may still be able to date her in the future. After the initial rejection, give your crush as much personal space as she needs and try to be a good friend. If you and her grow closer, or if she starts flirting with you, consider asking her out again. Though it may work in the movies, relentlessly pursuing a girl even after she says “no” comes off as creepy and incredibly disrespectful.

Article in English: A relationship can often feel like a 24/7 job. However, it's perfectly natural to feel like spending some time on your own every once in a while, especially if you're under pressure. Find activities you can do by yourself without fearing that this would hurt the relationship.  If you're stressed because you feel you've lost your own self in a relationship, try to reaffirm your individuality and what makes you a unique person. In fact, enjoying some independence will make you go back to your partner as a stronger individual. Missing each other is good: it helps you realize why your partner is so important and cherish the time you spend together. Especially if stress comes from outside the relationship, you should find external outlets so that you can unload the burden before being with your partner. This depends on what way is best for you to decompress: sport works for many people. However, you might prefer reading, going out more often, walking or meditation. There is no better way to take the burden off your chest than shake it away with physical activity. Even if you're not exactly the sporty kind, you can be sure that sweating out stress will lessen its impact on your relationship. The kind of activity depends on what you find most effective as a stress relief. Cardio activities like jogging, swimming or cycling can give you a chance to clear your mind. Or, you might prefer kickboxing or martial arts if you need to take out nervous tension. Yoga can work best if you wish to combine sport and meditation. Your partner shouldn't be the only person you unload your stress with. Talk to close friends or family members about your concerns and ask for their advice and sympathy.  If you talk to someone in your family, make sure they would be supportive. You don't want family issues to add more stress to what you're already going through! Friends who care about you but are personally uninvolved in what's causing you stress could be the best people to talk to. For example, if stress comes from your job, look for...

Article in English: A relationship is like a shark—if it doesn’t move forward, it dies. You should find ways of keeping your relationship fresh so your love doesn’t become just a part of your routine. One way of doing this is to find new interests that you can pursue together, so you have something to be excited about as well as a shared passion.  Take a weekly dance class together. This will give you some great exercise and will increase your passion for each other. Find a new hobby together. Try taking a painting or ceramics class, or find a new love for sailing. Take a class together. Try learning a new language or taking a history class together. Train for a race together. This is a great way to get closer, whether you’re training for a 5K or a marathon. Do anything out of your comfort zones. Try hiking, mountain biking, or even ice skating. Doing something completely unfamiliar will bring you closer together. If you want to maintain a healthy relationship, then you have to maintain a healthy sex life. Though your lovemaking may not be what it was in the beginning after five years together, you should still try new things in the bedroom so you’re still excited about making love with your partner and that everything you do still feels like an adventure.  Make love in new positions. Don’t do the same old thing you’ve been doing, even if it works. You can even look up new positions together, which will be great for foreplay. Make love in new places. Don’t always go for the bedroom—try the couch, the kitchen table, or even check in to a hotel in the middle of the day. Try going to a sex store to pick up some kinky items to bring into bed. Though a vacation isn’t a good long-term solution to any relationship problems, taking a trip together can help take you out of your same old perspective and appreciate your love in a new way. Plus, planning a trip together will give you something new to look forward to.  Plan the trip you’ve always wanted to take.

Article in English: A relative clause is a word, clause, or phrase that modifies some element of the main clause. Relative clauses are introduced by relative pronouns. Common relative pronouns include who/whom, whoever/whomever, whose, that, and which. In general, they come in two types: non-restrictive and restrictive. Non-restrictive modifiers are relative clauses or phrases that add information to a sentence but aren’t essential to the meaning of the sentence. If you removed a non-restrictive modifier from the sentence, it would still make sense (and the main subject of the sentence would still be in place). They are also sometimes called “interrupters.”   Here is an example of a non-restrictive modifier in a sentence: “George Washington, our first president, served two terms.” While the information in the non-restrictive modifier is helpful, the main clause makes sense if it’s removed: “George Washington served two terms.” Here is another example of a non-restrictive modifier: “Fatima, who has been studying hard, will probably do well on today’s exam.” The presence of who (a relative pronoun) in a clause is often a sign that it’s non-restrictive and should be set off by commas. In almost all cases, non-restrictive clauses or phrases will be set off on both sides by commas. This indicates to the reader that they’re additional information, but not necessarily essential. If you can remove the clause without damaging the sense of your sentence, it is almost certainly a non-restrictive modifier.  Make sure to set off the entire modifier with commas, using one at each end. A common comma error is to set off the beginning of the modifier with a comma, but not the end. In almost all cases, relative clauses or phrases beginning with which will be non-restrictive modifiers and should be set off with commas: “The car accident, which occurred at 3 PM, didn’t damage my car too badly.” Sometimes, prepositional phrases and other phrases interrupt the main sentence, serving as non-restrictive modifiers. If these interruptions are separate...

Article in English: A relaxed grip will allow the club head to turn over when you swing, giving you better accuracy and usually better distance. This is referred to as closing through impact. As with most things in golf, the harder you try, the worse things get, as trying harder may cause your muscles to tense, hindering your swing. Try to keep it comfortable and natural. This is a very basic grip similar to how baseball players hold a baseball bat, hence the name. Note: For all three of the following grips, the left hand (on a right-handed golfer) will be in the same position.  Place your left hand underneath the golf club, curving your fingers over the club so that they grip it securely. The golf club should be resting right where your palm meets your fingers; your left thumb should be pointed straight down the club to the club head. Bring your right hand underneath the golf club so that your right pinky finger is comfortably touching your left index finger. Your right hand should be just below your left on the club. Tighten your grip on the top of the club so that the lifeline portion of your palm rests on top of the left thumb. Your right thumb should be pointing slightly left-of-center, while your left thumb should be pointing slightly right-of-center. While there's nothing wrong with the baseball grip, the fingers are essentially disconnected from one another, which inhibits your hands from working together. The overlap grip connects the fingers by overlapping them. This grip offers somewhat more stability. Start off with your hands in the baseball grip. Instead of keeping your right pinky and your left index finger side-by-side, lift your right pinky up. Move your right hand up the grip, and rest your right pinky either on the joint between the left index and the left middle, or on top of the index finger itself. This grip offers probably the most stability of the three by interlocking the left and right hands on the underside of the club. This grip is used by golf greats Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods. To achieve the...

Article in English: A requisite for a well groomed appearance is cleanliness. Start everyday with a shower and the soap of your choice. Do this unless specified otherwise by a medical professional. Certain soaps are healthy for your skin and contain less harmful chemicals. After cleaning your body, ensure that your smell stay fresh. Apply deodorant after your shower. Choose a sensitive or aluminum free variety if you suffer from allergies.  Spend time to find the smell that is right for you. Brushing twice a day should be a minimum for your routine. Brush once in the morning and once at night, but don’t feel like you can’t brush whenever you have the urge. You should also floss once a day. Even if you could floss twice a week will help. Flossing decreases your bad breath by removing bacteria build up from your mouth. Not everyone subscribes to shaving their face, legs or other parts of the body everyday. Only shave your face, legs and armpits if you believe this is necessary. Men can look well groomed with facial hair, but it needs to be controlled and cared for.  For ladies it is typically viewed as necessary to shave your legs and armpits to look well groomed. There are many groups challenging this notion because men don’t shave these parts and still look well groomed. Do what is right for you. Half of looking well groomed is the confidence around you. If you have sensitive skin, consider shaving less frequently and find a shaving cream made for sensitive skin. Have a “survival kit” with you at all times to combat a blemish once out of the house. You can use a strong zip lock bag and include items for dry skin, broken nails, or messy hair.

Article in English: A rice cooker will always make a superior cooked rice. Invest in one if you plan on eating rice often. It will make your life much easier. Different rices work better in different dishes. Depending on what you want to use the rice for, you might want to change which rice you buy. Different rices will be drier or stickier, have different flavors, or have more or fewer nutrients. For example, basmati makes a dry final product, but jasmine will be a lot stickier. This is because of starch content. Wash rice before you cook it, if you don't want it to be too sticky. This will remove some of the starch and improve the final texture. Soaking your rice in warm water before you cook it will greatly improve the texture of the final product. Cover the rice in warm water and allow it to soak. Long grain rices need about 1 1/2 cups of water to every cup of rice. Brown rice will need at least 2 cups of water and likely more, but short grained white rice will need less than the standard to get it perfect the first time. You should always adjust the water once you see how a new rice cooks up. Before you close up the lid for your rice to steam, add in some spices to give it a little flavor, and then give it a stir. Good spice options include a slight sprinkling of celery salt, garlic powder, curry powder, or furikake.

Article in English: A right triangle is a triangle that has one right (90 degree) angle.  The side of the triangle opposite the right angle is always the longest side, and it is called the hypotenuse.   Right triangles show up frequently on math tests, and fortunately there is a very handy formula for finding the length of unknown sides! The Pythagorean Theorem tells us that for any right triangle with sides of length a and b, and hypotenuse of length c, a2 + b2 = c2. Remember that the longest side of the triangle is called the hypotenuse.  It will be opposite the right angle and must be labeled c.  Label the two shorter sides a and b.  It doesn't really matter which is which, the math will turn out the same! Remember that a2 + b2 = c2.  Substitute the side lengths in for the corresponding letters in the equation.  If, for example, you know that side a = 3 and side b = 4, then plug those values into the formula as follows: 32 + 42 = c2. If you know the length of side a = 6, and the hypotenuse c = 10, then you should set the equation up like so: 62 + b2 = 102. You will first need to square the known side lengths which means multiplying each value by itself (for example 32 = 3 * 3 = 9).  If you are looking for the hypotenuse, simply add the two values together and find the square root of this number to find the length.  If it is a side length you are missing, you must do a bit of easy subtraction, and then take the square root to get your side length.  In the first example, square the values in 32 + 42 = c2 and find that 25= c2. Then calculate the square root of 25 to find that c = 5. In the second example, square the values in 62 + b2 = 102 to find that 36 + b2 = 100.  Subtract 36 from each side to find that b2 = 64, then take the square root of 64 to find that b = 8. Recall that the perimeter P = a + b + c.  Now that you know the lengths of sides a, b and c, you simply need to add the lengths together to find the perimeter.  In our first example,P = 3 + 4 + 5, or 12. In our second example, P = 6 + 8 + 10, or 24.

Article in English: A rolling launch should begin six to eight weeks before the final product unveiling. Make sure there are plenty of strategic “leaks” regarding your product as the unveiling date draws closer. You can’t control when journalists or bloggers will cover your product, so give them plenty of time.  "Leaked” photos or mysterious tweets regarding your product create an atmosphere of intrigue that builds interest. Planting “news” stories about consumers are enthusiastically responding to free samples or trials can create momentum. Invite reporters, bloggers, consumers, celebrities, and members of industries related to your product. Give out free samples and try to make the event memorable with respect to catering, lighting, and even musical performances. Doing these things will give people more reasons to attend the event and may also generate more interest in your new product. Given the number of products on the market these days it can be hard to generate a buzz, and you may have to move beyond trade shows and convention halls to get attention. Instead of a convention center or showroom environment (and depending on the nature of your product), consider a less traditional location such as:  a bar or restaurant at the top of a skyscraper an avant-garde art gallery an infamous historical site a local street festival or fair online during a "cyber launch" during a flash mob

Article in English: A room in semi-darkness provides much less stimulation for your pup, possibly bettering and shortening the seizure. Take a look around and see what you can do to make the room as peaceful and dim as possible. At night, leave a dim light to watch the dog by. In simple terms, a seizure is an electrical storm in the brain. Anything that stimulates the brain, such as light, noise, smell, or touch has the potential to worsen, or even lengthen, the fit. This electrical storm in your dog's brain will only be heightened by outside noises. To help him get through this, turn off the TV and radio. Likewise, get everybody else to leave the room. The last thing your dog needs is an audience of shocked people gasping and talking, so get them out of the room to give the dog space and peace. You will need to watch your dog for your own peace of mind and to time the seizure and make sure he's okay. Stay as silent and unmoving as possible during this time to make this episode easier on him. A dog's olfactory stimulation (his sniffer) can be quite potent, so if you have scented candles burning or a roast in the oven, takes steps to get rid of the smells. Blow out and remove the candles and open a door to improve ventilation. A large dog during a seizure will not be easily moved. A small dog during a seizure, while easier to handle, may still not be a good idea since touch is also stimulating and can agitate his delicate condition. It will be much easier to get rid of the odors than to move your dog. This is a controversial topic for some owners because they feel compelled to stroke their pet to soothe his anxiety. The risk is that touch is a form of stimulation, therefore it is probably best to leave him alone. His fit will pass quicker if you do not try to get involved. During a fit, at best he won't be aware you are there, and at worst, you could prolong the attack. While touching him may be soothing to you, it will unlikely be soothing to him.

Article in English: A rosary is composed of a crucifix, 53 beads of one color to represent Hail Mary prayers, and 6 beads of another color to represent Our Father prayers. The crucifix and beads are strung in a pattern on sturdy string or thread.  Religious supply stores sell small crucifixes that are suitable for making rosaries. They also commonly sell beads you can use to represent the Hail Mary and Our Father prayers. Waxed nylon cord is commonly used for making rosaries. Be sure to pick out cord that fits through the centers of the beads you have chosen. The beads should fit the cord easily, but they should not be loose. You'll need about 3 feet (1 meter).

Article in English: A rosemary plant will produce flowers in spring or summer. When the flowers die back, seed pods will grow in their place. After the seed pods form, wait for them to develop and eventually dry out and turn brown. That’s when they're ready to be harvested. You can also buy rosemary seeds from nurseries and garden stores if you don’t have a plant to harvest them from. The seed pods are very small, and you can remove them from the plant by pinching them off with your fingers. As you collect the pods, place them in a cup or small bowl to keep them all together. Bring the pods inside and transfer them to a paper bag. Leave the bag open to allow air flow. Place the bag in a warm, dry place away from direct sunlight for 1 to 2 weeks. This will give the pods and seeds time to finish drying out. The pods are dry when they're completely brown and all the moisture is gone. Place the seed pods onto a clean tea towel. Fold the towel over the pods and rub the towel between your hands to separate the seeds from the pods, and to remove any husks or flower matter. Open the towel and pick out the seeds, which are small, brown, and egg-shaped. Discard the pods and other plant matter. Transfer the seeds to a paper bag and seal the bag to keep the seeds inside. You can store the seeds for up to a year, as long as they stay cool and dry. A root cellar or basement is an ideal location for seed storage.

Article in English: A rough washcloth will do a better job of cleaning, but a paper towel will do if a washcloth is not available.  Wrap the washcloth or paper towel around your index finger, dampen it, and add toothpaste if you have some. Brush your teeth as if using a toothbrush: begin at the gums and work down, cleaning each individual tooth with a circular motion.  Don’t forget to brush your tongue. Rinse your mouth thoroughly when done, swishing back and forth. Before there were toothbrushes, most people brushed their teeth with twigs. In many parts of the world, they still do, using twigs from oak, arak, or neem trees. Research shows that twigs from the arak tree contain natural fluoride and antimicrobial agents, and brushing with them is as or more effective as brushing with a toothbrush and toothpaste.  Pick a young, flexible branch about 6 to 8 inches long (15 to 20 cm). You want one without real bark, only a thin skin.  Peel the skin off and chew on one end of the stick until the fibers separate, turning the end into a little brush. Use it to brush your teeth.  You can also use a toothpick to clean between teeth, but use caution so as not to hurt your gums and make them bleed. If no paper towels, washcloths, or twigs are at hand, you can always use your finger. Be sure to wash your hands very well first, then use your index finger as you would a toothbrush: begin at the gums and work down for the upper arch and work up for the lower arch, cleaning each individual tooth with a circular motion.  Be sure to rinse your finger before moving from your top to bottom teeth, and from the front to the back of your teeth.  Rinse your mouth thoroughly when done, swishing back and forth and from one cheek to another for at least 30 seconds.
