Article in English: For every negative thought you have, remind yourself of the good things in life. Friends, family, chocolate, sky diving, wine, your dog, Netflix -- whatever makes you feel good! Music has the power to transport people, take them away from their problems, lift their spirits and give them inner peace. It doesn't matter what music you choose - it could be Beethoven or Britney Spears - as long as you find it uplifting and empowering. Just like smiling and laughter is contagious, so too is bad humor and aggression. This is why you should make an effort to avoid people who gossip, cause problems for others, or constantly walk around with a scowl on their face and a cloud over their head. Surround yourself with happy, positive people instead and you'll find yourself smiling unconsciously. The more relaxed you feel, the better the world looks, and the easier it is to smile. A relaxing hobby will give you the opportunity to take some time for yourself and be at peace with the world, without the pressure of interacting with others. Consider taking up something like yoga or sailing. Or simply steal away for an hour or two to soak in a relaxing bath. Life is about adventure and making the most of the opportunities thrown your way. Add some excitement to your life by doing something spontaneous every once in a while, like walking in the rain, sketching an object or person that catches your eye, or randomly calling your friends up for a night on the town. You'll make wonderful memories -- each of them contributing to a happy life. Taking the time each day to do a good deed will make you feel better about yourself, while also helping to make the world a better place. It doesn't need to be anything huge -- you could make a small donation to charity, hold the elevator door for someone, buy the coffee of the person standing behind you -- anything that makes someone else's day a little easier or nicer. Their smile of appreciation will keep you buoyed up all day long. They say laughter is the best medicine, so get your daily...

Article in English: For example sales, publicity and marketing positions often require the same kinds of skills. Showing your parents you have sensibly considered an "escape route" if things don't work out should impress them with your mature sensible nature. For example:  Research and price acting schools. Each school will have its own style and, more importantly, its own placement rates in various acting careers. Find and choose the one that is right for you. Honestly evaluate your talent and find areas you are lacking. Perhaps you need to be a better dancer dancer, or singer or tell better jokes. If these skills are a part of your plan, figure out how you will learn the skills.

Summary in Russian:

Родители хотели бы видеть, что молодые люди приближаются к их жизненному выбору зрелым образом, и нет ничего лучше, чем делать свою домашнюю работу. Подумайте о другой карьере, которой вы можете заниматься вместе с актерским мастерством, если вы не сможете стать актером, каким бы вы хотели быть. Поймите, что вам нужно будет сделать, чтобы достичь своей цели.


Article in English: For example, a disco-themed party invitation could feature a large disco ball. People are likely to look at your invitation and make a quick first impression -- you want that first impression to be informative and fun.  If your party doesn't have a theme, have the invitation mirror the formality of the party. If you're throwing a black tie soiree, keep it simple with a plain border, a fancy font, and to-the-point text. If you're throwing a rave, make your invitation as wild as you'd like. You can also send a mail to your friends and relatives to give an invitation for a party. That's usually the time and date of the party, location, where to call for more information, and whether or not the guest needs to RSVP are all important. And do they need to bring anything (food, swimsuit, etc.)? Does the party have a specific time it ends? You may want to include a few selling points if applicable. Will you be having awards for best dressed? Provide beer and wine? Will there be 50 varieties of European cheeses? Give your guests a slight clue as to what you have planned for the evening to whet their appetite. A formal party should require a more formal invitation, such as a letter.  An informal party invitation is up to your discretion – a phone call, email, or social media event would all work fine. Formal events generally require a bit of advanced notice -- preferably around 2 weeks. There are several things to consider when thinking about a party's size and attendance:  How big is the space where your party will be? Can your apartment hold 10 people, 50 people, 200 people? Is it okay for the people you invite to bring friends? How many friends? Do you have a say over who those friends are? How many people can you feed and have drinks for at your party? Does this include friends of friends? If you're having your party at a club, bar, hotel, rented room, etc., does the owner have limits on the number of people that can be there?

Article in English: For example, cutting 500 calories for 4 days is 2,000 calories. For example, 600 calories from a class over 3 days is 1,800 calories. If it adds up to more than 3,500 calories, you should have lost 1 lb.  Losing 1 lb. in 4 days is very fast weight loss. If you continue this way, you can lose 2 lbs. by week’s end. Losing 2 lbs. per week adds up to 8 lbs. per month, a healthy a noticeable weight loss goal. Although actual weight can fluctuate throughout the day, if you are losing inches on arms, legs, stomach or chest measurements, you are making good progress toward healthy and substantial weight loss.  After you try on clothing or measure yourself with a fabric measuring tape, you can weigh yourself. Try to weigh yourself only once each week, at approximately the same time during the day. Keep in mind that while you burn fat, you may also be gaining muscle. Muscle building may keep the scale from dropping for a few days; however, muscle tissue burns more calories than fatty tissue, and you will see greater weight loss in the long-term.

Article in English: For example, if all of your data begins in column "A", you'd right-click the "A" at the top of the page. This will add a column to the left of your current left column. After doing this, any data that was in the "A" column will be relisted as being in the "B" column and so on.  Exclude the quotation marks. The "RAND" command applies a number between 0 and 1 to your selected cell. If Excel attempts to automatically format your "RAND" command, delete the formatting and re-type the command. You should see a decimal (e.g., 0.5647) appear in your selected cell.  Doing this will copy the "RAND" command.  For a Mac, you'll hold down ⌘ Command instead of Control. You can also right-click the "RAND" cell and then select Copy. This will likely be the "A2" cell. Clicking the "A1" cell and highlighting from there can cause a sorting error. To do this, you'll hold down ⇧ Shift while clicking the cell at the bottom of your data range. For example, if your data in columns "B" and "C" extends all the way down to cell 100, you would hold down ⇧ Shift and click "A100" to select all "A" cells from A2 to A100. Doing so will paste the random sample command into all selected cells (e.g., A2 through A100). Once this is done, you'll need to sort your data using the random numbers to reorder your results. Again, Mac users will need to hold down ⌘ Command instead of Control.

Article in English: For example, if the original price of a computer was $200, type “200” in cell A1. For example, if you ultimately paid $150 for the computer, type “150” in cell B1. When you do this, Excel automatically calculates the difference between the two prices and displays the numerical value in the cell. For this example, the numerical value in cell C1 should be 50 if you enter the formula correctly. When you do this, Excel divides the price difference by the original price. For this example, the numerical value in cell D1 should be 0.25 if you enter the formula correctly. When you do this, Excel converts the decimal into a percentage.  In this example, the value in cell D1 should be 25%. This means that you saved 25 percent on the purchase of the computer. Because you entered formulas into the other cells, Excel will automatically update the cost savings percentage when you change the original price or the final price, or both. For example, say you also purchased a lamp for $10 that originally cost $17. If you type “17” into cell A1 and “10” into B1 -- and leave all the other cells as they are – the corresponding savings of 41 percent will display in cell D1.

Article in English: For example, if they have a 30-minute set tell them to prepare a 25-minute set and also a 30-minute or longer set, to keep everything running smoothly even if that goes out of control. However, be gentle and do not cut their performance while it is live (such as cutting amplifier's power, turning off volume, etc). Secretly get your messages to the band behind the stage. Chances are, that one edgy band keeps on playing and you should stay calm, get a few security officers with you and finish their set after they finished the current song. constant communication is required, there is no point in 5 bands bringing 5 drum kits, and 5 sets of amps, only for four of them sit outside in vans ready to be stolen. generally it is the headlining acts job to supply a drum kit, and the other drummers will have to provide what are known as breakables, (snare, cymbals, bass drum pedal) However, some drummers are not comfortable with this and will want other bands to use another kit. If each band does use their own kit, the gap between bands will go from 15 minutes to 25 and sound checks will be at least 5 minutes longer. On a night with three bands, not a problem, 5 bands and an 11 O'clock cut off, you will have major night mares. Likewise with guitarists, it is generally acceptable to use other people cabs (the speakers under their amps) but not the amps themselves unless the bands know each other and/or are particularly laid back. This gets tricky when headlining acts have combo amps or not enough cabs to go around. Then you have the added complication of a bands that isn't just drums/bass/gtr/vocals. Keyboards, Acoustic Guitars, mandolins, banjo's, kazoos, brass sections, harps etc can bring on premature aging in a sound engineer if they are presented on the night with no prior warning. Start with the headlining act, What will they bring, what will they need, what will they share. Tell the next band down what is available to them, then ask them the same three questions. By the time you get to the bottom couple of bands,...

Поставьте самую популярную группу в конец, а самую непопулярную первыми. Дайте каждой начинающей группе одинаковое количество времени, последним двум дайте также немного дополнительного времени. Скажите группам количество времени, которое у них есть на выступление, при этом, приуменьшите его на 5 минут, чем в реальности. Выполнения требований по аппаратуре, совместное пользование техники группами, время на саунд-чек – все это щекотливые моменты. Разрешите группам продавать свои CD и заниматься мерчендайзингом, если это возможно, в перерывах и после шоу. Оставайтесь в жестких временных рамках мероприятия. В общем целом, выделяйте 15 минут между каждой группой на настройку. Проигрывайте музыку в паузах.


Article in English: For example, if they love to go shopping, you could incorporate shopping into the birthday plans by starting out the day at the mall. If they hate crowds, you could choose activities where you'll be more secluded. Keeping their interests in mind will help you choose activities you know they'll enjoy. Don't feel obligated to spend a lot of money for your significant other's birthday if you can't afford it. Look for cheap or free activities you can do together; your significant other will still appreciate the effort. For example, you could take your significant other to a free outdoor concert at the park if they like live music, or find a museum that's having a discounted or free admission day. If you're planning on doing something outside and the weather is calling for rain, look for a new activity you can do that's indoors. If it's going to be a nice day out and you hadn't planned anything for outside, consider squeezing an extra activity that's outside into the schedule.

Article in English: For example, if you are always distracted by the noise outside of your house, go to the nearest Masjid (mosque) instead of praying in your own home. This is not necessary for women, as they are not supposed to attend the mosque. It is recommended that they try to limit the distractions or cut them off as much as they can. Try to understand the exact meaning of the words that you are reciting. Think about the meaning as you recite the verses. This will definitely keep your mind focused on your prayer. What you are saying won't just be a bunch of Arabic words anymore; their deep and spiritual meaning will become apparent. In Islam, this is known as jama'ah. You will ultimately feel a sense of unity and belonging. Men might want to pray at the local Masjid with other brothers. Offer to shake their hands or even start a conversation with them. Try joining the after-prayer study group in which the Imam or knowledgeable people at the Masjid will teach you more about Islam. The Prophet guides all of mankind and his example is perfect. Don't just do the bare minimum and only the obligatory acts or worship; go above and beyond the expectations by following the sunnah and performing optional acts.  These include, for men, to cover their heads with a cap. Women should try increasing their Hijab length to be long enough to cover their hands. Take time out from your tasks and relax. Instill calmness in your mind. Prepare the mind by thinking about your upcoming salat. Remind yourself  that Allah is waiting for your salat and will listen attentively to every word you say. Concentrate on the translation of what you are reciting. This will help ensure concentration during prayer. yourself from your mental stresses. During your salah, you are communicating with Allah. After you pray you will be able get up as a more humble and peaceful person. This effect stimulates the mind to pay more attention to what you are doing. You should dress in the same manner as you would be you to see a respected leader. The Qur'an says "Take...

Article in English: For example, if you are having an argument with your parents about extending your curfew, you might want to discuss the following things:  Include all of the reasons why you’ve proven you’re responsible enough to handle it (not missing curfew in the past months, completing your homework on time, doing your chores, etc.) Give counter reasons to eliminate their existing concerns – like if you know they are worried you will get in trouble because you are out later, you might mention that they already know most of your friends and their parents, so they don’t have anything to worry about. Bring up why extending your curfew would actually be a good thing – like it will make you happy so you’ll be more enjoyable to be around, it will help you develop your friendships more fully, and it will help you learn to handle more adult responsibility. If you’re going to engage in an argument with your parents, you need to be fully prepared. Spend some time thinking about what you want to say and write them down. You can bring the notes with you to the discussion with your parents, or you can just study them before you start so that you won’t forget any of your major points. Having a planned, organized argument already in your mind will help you navigate the conversation with your parents and might also impress your parents by showing them that you take this matter seriously. Whatever you do, don’t get hysterical during an argument with your parents. This is immature and will not make them see your side of the argument any more clearly. Show your parents that you are capable of a mature discussion by remaining calm even if things don’t go your way. You know how if someone hits you and you hit them back, it counts as self-defense for the second guy? Well, the same idea applies to getting in arguments with parents. Never talk first. Just calmly stand by while they rant at you. In some cases it may feel like whatever you may do will cause your parents to become even more angry. That can be particularly difficult to deal with...

Article in English: For example, if you continue doing something that upsets your child (such as exposing them to painful sensory stimuli or pushing something they don't want), they may lash out. Children melt down more frequently if they believe that it's the only way to make parents acknowledge their feelings and desires. Coercing him, ignoring the fact that they are not comfortable with something, or physically restraining him is damaging. Respect your child's autonomy.   Obviously, you cannot always honor a "no." If you are not going to do what they want, tell them why: "It's important that you sit in the car seat because it keeps you safe. If we get in an accident, the car seat will protect you." If something bothers him, find out why, and try to fix the problem. "Is the car seat uncomfortable? Would it help if you sat on a little pillow?" Medications such as selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), antipsychotic medications, and mood stabilizers can be partially effective in helping children who are easily upset. However, like with any medication, there are side effects, so you must take the time to really decide if medication is the best option. There is enough research data to show that a medication by name Risperidone is quite effective for the short-term treatment of aggressive and self-injurious behaviors in autistic children. Speak with a doctor or therapist about the pros and cons of this medication. A therapist can help your child improve in their communication as well. Be sure to find one that works with autistic children. Your doctor or many of the good autism spectrum disorder support groups will be able to help find a recommended therapist. For example, if your child does not like to get dressed, break up the complex process into basic "one-at-a-time" steps. This will help you understand where some of the difficulties are with your child undertaking a particular activity. As such, without even speaking, your child is communicating with you about a concern they have. , picture books, and playtime to...

Article in English: For example, if you don't like to spend a lot of time styling your hair, don't get a cut that requires detailed curling or blow drying.  Do your research about what styles work for your hair type and face. While it's not impossible to have a good hair day with opposing hair types and styles, it does mean more work for you. Choose a style that you're willing to maintain and keep your hair at a manageable length. You might start having bad hair days when your preferred style grows out for too long. A great haircut that suits your face will grow out well and should make maintenance easier.  Make sure you trust your hair stylist, especially if you're dramatically changing your look. If you're frequently having bad hair days, you might be overdue for a haircut. This is especially true if you notice split ends or limp hair that tangles easily. Maintaining your haircut every six to eight weeks will keep your hair healthy and tamable. This can prevent split ends that can contribute to frizzy hair. Seeing your stylist frequently is an added bonus. Not only will your hair get the treatment it needs, but you'll also build a rapport with your stylist. This can help when it comes to getting a last-minute appointment or dramatically changing your hairstyle. Your stylist should be able to recommend products for your hair type and style. Avoid using too much product, as it can build up and make styling difficult. Nourish your hair by waiting a day or two in between shampoos, using conditioners effectively, and avoiding damaging practices, such as daily flat-ironing or prolonged blow drying.

Article in English: For example, if you live in an appropriate area, allow your older children or teens to build a campfire (with supervision). Teach them safety rules and then let them take charge. Older kids need to feel responsible and independent. Check with your local city council to determine any regulations. Older kids and teens can use the GPS on their cellphones for outdoor activities such as geocaching, which may appeal to their budding need for independence. Your child or teen could also keep a blog about his or her outdoor activities. Teens love selfies, so encourage them to take photos of themselves doing cool activities outside, or document their favorite outdoor adventures. Make sure to talk to your kids about responsible social media use. Older children and teens are particularly fond of "hanging out." Offer to drive your kids and their friends to a park, or encourage your child to go jogging with a friend instead of sitting on the couch. Both teenage boys and girls enjoy activities like basketball and bicycling. Basketball hoops are relatively inexpensive and can be set up almost anywhere. Having the equipment will encourage your teens to head outdoors.

Article in English: For example, if you own a SanDisk micro SD card, you should have a micro SD card adapter that came with it. The adapter looks like a regular SD card with a slot at the bottom where you insert your micro SD card.  Note that most Micro SD cards that are 32 GB or less come formatted as FAT32. Cards above 64 GB are formatted to exFAT file system. If you are formatting your SD for your Android phone or Nintendo DS or 3DS, you will have to format to FAT32. With Android, many of your apps or custom recoveries, if you are rooted, will not read exFAT. Also note that if you are using Mac OS 10.6.5 (Snow Leopard) or earlier, you won’t be able to use or format an exFAT card as these older versions of Mac OS don’t support this file system. You will have to upgrade your OS. Formatting to FAT32 is usually your best option, however, FAT32 formatted cards won’t let you transfer or store a file more than 4GB. You can also purchase a third-party micro SD card adapter if you don’t already have one. Just make sure that it is compatible with your micro SD card. Some third-party adapters also use a USB component on one end and operate like a flash drive. Depending on your computer and type of adapter you will either need to use your SD card slot or a USB port.  If you are using a micro SD card adapter, make sure that the lock toggle is up and in the unlocked position. If it is in the locked position your computer may not read the card or let you make any changes. It may be “Read only”. It’s a good idea to copy the files currently on the card over to your computer to save. This will allow you to keep your data and files for transferring back after you format.

While holding the VCR/DVD button, press 2 for a VCR or 3 for a DVD player. Release both buttons and wait for your remote control's LED light to stop flashing. Hold down the Power button along with the button for the item for which you want to program your remote. When your remote control's LED light turns on and stays on, you can release the item's button and the Power button. This will ensure that the remote enters the codes correctly. Doing so will cause the remote to enter a batch of 10 separate codes into the item for which you're programming it. Once the LED light stop's flashing, you can proceed. If your item turns off, skip the next step. Each time you press "Play", wait for the LED light to stop flashing and then check the item; if the item turns off, continue to the next step. It's the "Rewind" arrow on your remote. This will cause the item to check the last-sent code. If it did turn back on, you can skip the next step. Make sure you're waiting for at least two seconds between pressing the "Reverse" button and checking the item. Once the item turns back on, you can proceed. Hold down the "Stop" button until the remote control's light turns off. You have successfully programmed your RCA remote for your selected item.

Article in English: For example, if your maximum desired price is $50.00, enter a maximum bid of $50.11. Most sellers bid in whole dollar amounts. Many eBay auctions are won by a few cents. If another seller shares your maximum bid of $50.00, odds are, that seller will set his or her maximum bid at $50.00. By placing your maximum at $50.11, your bid will automatically be raised above your competitor's bid if the $50.00 mark is reached. The most effective bids are placed within the last 10 seconds of the auction. If you place your maximum bid well in advance, a bidding war may take place in which the bids of two or more buyers are continually rising in increments. Even if your maximum bid is higher than the other buyer's maximum, the other buyer has to opportunity to raise his maximum bid even higher once your maximum has been reached. Monitor the bidding process in one window and place your final maximum bid during the last 10 to 15 seconds of the auction using the second window.  Type your maximum bid into the second window and click on "Place Bid." Do not click on "Confirm Bid" yet, but make sure the button is visible. In the first window, refresh the page by hitting the f5 button or Ctrl+R. Reload the page every few seconds to monitor changes to the current price. Have the two windows open side-by-side, if possible. Switching back and forth can kill valuable time. Switch to your second window, with your input bid, during the last 10 to 15 seconds. Click on "Confirm Bid" to place your final offer. Doing so this close to the end of the auction will make it difficult for anyone else to place a higher bid before the auction closes.

Article in English: For example, in the problem, √25, "√" is the radical symbol. You will need to find the square root of this number. For example, in the problem √25, "25" is the radicand. This is the number that the square root is being multiplied by; this sits to the left of the √ symbol. For example, in the problem, 7√2, "7" is the coefficient. For example, 2 is a factor of 8 because 8 ÷ 4 = 2, but 3 is not a factor of 8 because 8÷3 doesn’t result in a whole number. As another example, 5 is a factor of 25 because 5 x 5 = 25. Simplifying a square root just means factoring out any perfect squares from the radicand, moving them to the left of the radical symbol, and leaving the other factor inside the radical symbol. If the number is a perfect square, then the radical sign will disappear once you write down its root. For example, √98 can be simplified to 7√2.

Article in English: For example, let's say your auto insurance premium just went up. Write down these values:  Your car insurance premium was $400 before the increase. This is the starting value. After the increase, it costs $450. This is the end value. Subtract the starting value from the end value to find the out how much it increased. We're still working with ordinary numbers at this point, not percentages. In our example, $450 - $400 = a $50 increase. A percentage is just a special kind of fraction. For example, "5% of doctors" is quick way to write "5 out of 100 doctors." By dividing the answer by the starting value, we turn it into a fraction that compares the two values. In our example, $50 / $400 = 0.125. This converts your last result into a percentage. The final answer to our example is 0.125 x 100 = 12.5% increase in auto insurance premiums.

Article in English: For example, let’s return to our example dealing with colored marbles. Say you want to figure out the probability of drawing a white marble (of which there are 11) out of the total pot of marbles (which contains 20). The odds of the event happening is the ratio of the probability that it will occur over the probability that it will not occur. Since there are 11 white and 9 non-white marbles, you’ll write the odds as the ratio 11:9.  The number 11 represents the likelihood of choosing a white marble and the number 9 represents the likelihood of choosing a marble of a different color. So, odds are that you will draw a white marble. Converting odds is pretty simple. First ,break the odds into 2 separate events: the odds of drawing a white marble (11) and the odds of drawing a marble of a different color (9). Add the numbers together to calculate the number of total outcomes. Write this as a probability, with the newly calculated total number of outcomes as the denominator The event that you’ll draw a white marble is 11; the event another color will be drawn is 9. The total number of outcomes is 11 + 9, or 20. You have calculated that there are a total of 20 possibilities and that, essentially, 11 of those outcomes are drawing a white marble. So, the probability of drawing a white marble can now be approached like any other single-event probability calculation. Divide 11 (number of positive outcomes) by 20 (number of total events) to get the probability. So, in our example, the probability of drawing a white marble is 11/20. Divide this out: 11 ÷ 20 = 0.55 or 55%.

Article in English: For example, let’s say we have the equation: 3(x-4)5(4-x)  Notice how (x-4) and (4-x) are ‘’almost’’ identical, but you can’t cross them out because they are reversed. However, (x - 4) can be written as -1 * (4 - x) in the same way that you rewrite (4 + 2x) as 2 * (2 + x). This is called “factoring out the negative.”  -1 * 3(4-x)5(4-x) Now we can easily remove the two identical (4-x): -1 * 3(4-x)5(4-x)  Leaving us with our final answer -3/5 The difference of two squares is simply one squared number subtracted by another, like the expression (a2 - b2). The difference of perfect squares always simplifies into two parts, adding and subtracting the square roots. In every case, you can simplify the difference of perfect square as follows: a2 - b2 = (a+b)(a-b)  This can be incredibly helpful when trying to find like terms in algebraic fractions. Example: x2 - 25 = (x+5)(x-5) Polynomials are complex algebraic expressions with more than two terms, like x2 + 4x + 3. Luckily, many polynomials can be simplified using polynomial factorization. The previous expression, for example, can be rewritten as (x+3)(x+1). This is especially helpful in expressions with exponents, like x4 + x2. You can remove the largest exponent as a factor. In this case, x4 + x2 = x2(x2 + 1).

Article in English: For example, one set of parents realized their son had a reading problem when he was unable to complete a short kindergarten homework assignment: to read a list of rhyming words to his parents. Following the instructions provided by the teacher, here is how that exercise went: Parent: All the words on this list rhyme with at. Say at. Child: At. Parent: The first word on the list is bat; bat rhymes with at. Say at, bat. Child: At, bat. Parent (moving finger to touch each word): What's next? at, bat… (touching cat). Child: Cot. Parent: No, it needs to rhyme … at, bat, c— Child: Cake. Parent (getting frustrated): You need to focus! At, bat, CAT. Sound it out: c-a-t. Child: C-a-t. Parent. Now what comes next? At, bat, cat, f— Child: Friend. Needless to say, they never made it to hat, mat, pat, rat, sat, or vat. While the classic association with dyslexia is one of a person who "sees" letters and numbers backward, what's really happening is more intense and has to do with how the brain works.  A child with dyslexia struggles with “phonological decoding”, which is the process of taking apart and putting together words by chopping them into their individual sounds while connecting those sounds to the letters that represent them. Because of the way their brains translate letters and sounds back and forth, children with dyslexia tend to read slower (less fluent) and make more mistakes (less accurate).  For example, a little boy reading a book sees the word dog but doesn't recognize it on sight. He tries to sound it out, which is taking it apart and translating the letters into their sounds (dog=d-o-g). Meanwhile, a little girl writing a story wants to spell the word dog. She says the word slowly then tries to translate the sounds into letters (d-o-g=dog). If these children have no reading disabilities, chances are good that both will be successful. But, if they have dyslexia, the translation process—from sounds to letters or from letters to sounds—doesn't go well and a dog may become a god. Sadly, many people think...

Article in English: For example, tell yourself that if you pay attention for the next 15 minutes, you can have a few peanut M&Ms from the bag you’ve stashed in your backpack. For every additional 15 minutes, you get a couple more. Or, instead of M&Ms, you can allow yourself to check your phone briefly. You could also tell yourself that if you take good notes through the entire class, you can play your new video game for an hour when you get home. This can be a good motivator if you have trouble making it through the whole class, or if the class is pretty long. After all, if it’s a 3-hour class, you will probably get tired of eating M&Ms or checking your phone for updates. For example, before walking into Physics today, tell yourself that if you pay attention the entire time, you can grab your favorite mocha latte or hit the arcade right after class. For example, maybe you find French class excruciatingly boring. Hey, you’re not the first person to feel that way! Tell yourself that if you pay attention today, you’ll treat yourself to that cool new French film (sub-titled, of course!) you’ve been wanting to see downtown. Or you can treat yourself to a delicious croissant or éclair after class.  After paying attention in class and scarfing down an éclair, you'll probably be feeling pretty good. See? Maybe French isn’t so bad after all. Doing this helps you associate positive things with your class. In turn, this may encourage you to pay attention more. If you walk into class already dreading how boring it's going to be and telling yourself that paying attention is going to be impossible, you won't feel very motivated to stay on track. Instead, walk in telling yourself that you will succeed at paying attention in today's class. Set your mind to achieving your goal! For example, instead of thinking "Ugh, I hate this class! It's so boring," you could think: "Maybe I'll learn something interesting today." If you have a friend in the class, ask them to discreetly let you know when your mind has clearly wandered. They can tap you on the...

Article in English: For example, watching movies, playing video games, or playing a board game will keep you occupied. Play on your phone or tablet, but try to rest your eyes every twenty minutes or so. Play games like Truth or Dare, Would You Rather, and Mafia. You have to pay attention in these games, that will keep you alert. You could also play Guitar Hero or Rock Band. This will keep your mind off of sleeping.  When watching TV, try not to watch re-runs of TV shows you've seen before. The fact that you know what eventually happens makes watching the show boring. Try to watch episodes of TV shows that you've never seen, or that you haven't seen in a while. Same goes for movies. Take frequent breaks when watching any kind of screen, to avoid fatiguing your eyes. Rock or heavy metal is usually louder, or just turn the volume up more. Don't let it get too loud though, or you might wake the host's parents. Take turns using headphones if you have to. This will make the night drag on, and it seems like it will never reach the end of that night. Pay attention to what your friends are doing or talking about instead. The more fun you have, the faster time will seem to pass. Make a rule where if anybody sees anybody else start to fade off, or look drowsy, they can give them a small pinch in the arm or shake them awake. If you see your friends looking drowsy, suggest a change in activities. It's easier to stay awake with help from your friends.

Article in English: For example, you should choose physics, journalism, sports or online marketing if you feel motivated to learn about it in your personal, as well as professional, time. Talent is simply an aptitude for the subject and an ability to improve over time. It is difficult to believe that anyone can be an expert in anything. Although practice is a huge portion of the equation, a person who doesn’t have an aptitude for music is unlikely to become an expert pianist. ” Deliberate practice requires you to challenge yourself with difficult tasks in your field, rather than simply practicing at your current level.  If you want to be an expert, expect to put in 10,000 hours of deliberate practice before you can call yourself a master in the subject. Few people accomplish those 10,000 in less than 10 years. Work hard in your industry or at your hobby for 10 years and you will have the experience on your resume to back you up when you start to refer to yourself as an expert. Understand that it will vary greatly depending upon the subject. For example, it takes approximately 700 hours to become an expert at yoga and over 42,000 hours to become an expert neurosurgeon. Trade publications may tell you how much time you can expect to devote to the task. Back up your experience with study and research. Stay on top of the newest trends in your industry. Enroll in classes, conferences and certifications that prove you have learned from the best. Go for a master’s or doctorate degree, if you plan to work in the business or science world. Education, both self-taught and degree-related, is an important part of marketing yourself as an expert. If you are learning a sport or certain kinds of music, it may not be necessary.

Article in English: For example: "After doing 30 minutes of math's study, I am allowed to have a small square of chocolate." It is also good to include physical movement breaks as a reward; for example, after 1-hour study, allow yourself a five-minute walk or stretch before coming back to the books.  While this may be hard a lot of the time, try to inject enjoyment into some of the studying. If something really interests you, learn more about it in your own way and become more knowledgeable in it so that you can wow the teacher. Hermione doesn't do this, but it can help you to study if you're so inclined. You could listen to all sorts of genres, like Blues, Jazz, R&B, Pop Rock, etc... Whatever floats your boat. However usually music with no lyrics works the best so that you are not getting distracted by what is being sung in the song. Hermione often studied in the Gryffindor common room with the other Gryffindors. The library is another place where you are communally linked in silence; it's quite a nice thing to not be alone when studying; you can share the agony around.  To make studying more interesting, maybe try doing it with a friend but a friend with whom you won't get distracted. Study groups may help also.

Article in English: For experienced riders, neck reining can seem almost second-nature. However, for a beginner, it can be deceptively difficult. Since making errors while training your horse can cause the horse to start to expect these errors while neck reining, you'll want to nip them in the bud early. In the rest of this section, we'll discuss a few common errors (and how to avoid them. If you're neck reining and you can't get your horse to turn, don't pull extra hard to turn the horse's head in the correct direction. Because of your one-handed grip, this actually forces the horse's head to turn in the wrong direction. Instead, switch to direct (two-handed) rein and pull the inside rein to turn the horse's head. It's easy to forget that, from the horse's perspective, any minor movements of the reins can be interpreted as a cue to turn. Try to keep your hands reasonably steady while riding, especially while neck reining. Your horse can feel even minor shifts in your body weight. Be sure to look into each turn — this should make you subconsciously shift your weight. If you're having a hard time getting a response from your horse, you may guide it by more deliberately shifting your weight and applying leg pressure as noted in the section above.

Article in English: For farm hands or employees younger than 16, familiarize yourself with OSHA labor standards regarding child labor. Some jobs involving heavy machinery are too dangerous to be performed by less experienced workers.  "HO/A #1 The FLSA prohibits youth under 16 years of age from operating a tractor of over 20 PTO (power-take-off) horsepower, and from connecting or disconnecting implements or parts to such a tractor."  In some places, it's necessary to obtain a registration to drive your tractor on the road (the UK and Australia, for example) while many other regions forego registration as long as your tractor displays reflective caution tape and is clearly visible. For heavy-duty weed control and maintenance of rough areas of your property, it's useful to get a mowing attachment to eliminate invasive weeds and brush. Most Kubotas and other common smaller tractors have a wide variety of attachments, including buckets that will make your tractor into a kind of small-scale backhoe. You can haul brush and other junk around your property. Follow proper driving safety when adding a bucket. Never drive with the bucket in full "up" position, but always remember to raise it into the drive position so it's not dragging in the mud. If you've got a row to hoe, the job is much easier with a cultivator to break up the dirt and help plant your crop. If you're using tractor attachments, you'll need to be especially careful to drive extremely carefully and use the guidelines outlined in the owner's manual for each implement, attachment, or device. Make sure that heavier attachments are outfitted with independent brakes in good working condition, and learn to use them. Make sure to follow proper safety precautions while hitching your tractor to wagons or other farming implements:  Make sure that the area in front and behind, making sure especially that no one is behind the tractor Back the tractor up slowly Practice a safe stop, applying the emergency brake Put the transmission in neutral Dismount the tractor and hitch up

Article in English: For female patients of child-bearing age, the prescription must be filled and picked up within 7 days of the office visit when the tests were done to confirm that you are not pregnant. For everybody else, each prescription must be filled and picked up within 30 days of the office visit. Doses are to be taken orally, with food, and at approximately the same time each day. Food in your stomach helps the drug to be absorbed. An Accutane regimen will usually last several months.  Remember to take your pill every day.  It may be helpful to set a daily alarm on your cell phone or your alarm clock to remind yourself not to miss a dose. If you do miss a pill, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose. In that case, just skip the dose you missed completely. Do not double up doses in an effort to catch up. In addition to birth control, monthly blood tests are required to monitor for changes, including the balance of different forms of cholesterol in your blood (specifically, your triglyceride levels).  Routine lab work is necessary to ensure that Accutane is not causing any internal damage to your liver or kidneys. Triglycerides refer to the fatty acids that are normally found in your blood. These may peak when eating particularly fatty foods, such as fast food or other deep fried meals.  Maintaining a healthy diet helps the drug to be better absorbed, and helps to avoid abnormally high levels of fatty acids sometimes caused by eating meals high in fats. Taking Accutane during pregnancy has been shown to significantly increase the risk of birth defects. Women who get pregnant while taking Accutane have a 30% chance of birth defects, as opposed to the normal 3-5% chance. Remember that Accutane works by targeting your sebaceous glands. Using over-the-counter and prescription acne products will only aggravate your skin and increase dryness. Talk with your dermatologist about using any skin products while taking Accutane.

Article in English: For first-time growers, growing mushrooms from a ready-made kit can be a fun, easy option for producing your own mushrooms. These kits usually consist of plastic bags filled with sterilized, inoculated straw or soil. All you need to do keep the bag in the correct conditions and in seven to 10 days you'll have homegrown mushrooms.  Kits will usually cost between $20 and $30 and can be used to grow most of the common mushroom varieties such as white button, crimini, portobello, lion's mane, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms. To begin the growing process, simply open the bag and place it in a bright location, out of direct sunlight — such as a shady windowsill. The kit can be kept at room temperature, but it will need to be misted with water daily to keep humidity high. Some kits will provide plastic tents to cover the bag and maintain humidity levels. The mushrooms will start to sprout after seven to ten days, but you can expect to see two or three flushes of growth over a three month period. The great thing about these kits is that after they have finished producing mushrooms, you can bury them outdoors under bark mulch or in your compost pile. Then, depending on weather conditions, mushrooms may start to pop up in that spot.

To achieve a multicolored look without switching yarns, try a variegated yarn that incorporates several different colors.  Have 200 yards (182.9 m) of yarn at your disposal. Bigger needles create a looser stitch; smaller needles, a tighter one. Choose the size according to your desired look. For worsted weight yarn, size 8 to 10 needles are normally used. You may wind up knitting for hours, so make sure you're in a comfortable chair and sitting position. Make sure you're in a well-lit area and can move your arms and needles freely.

Article in English: For fitness, you may need a rough sense of how many of your daily calories come from protein. This can help you calculate things like your macronutrient requirements. It's fairly simple to determine how many of your daily calories come from protein.  Figure out how many total grams of protein you consumed in a given day. You can use an online calorie calculator to measure the grams of protein in any given food you consumed. You can also use nutritional labels. A gram of protein contains roughly 4 calories. Multiply the total grams of protein by 4 to determine how many total calories in protein you consumed in a day.  To convert ounces to grams, it can be helpful to use an online conversion system. The number of grams in an ounce is inexact, but it's somewhere around 28.3. It can be difficult to convert by hand and may be easier to do the conversion with an online system. You may also have to round numbers when converting ounces to grams. It can also be helpful to know what percentage of calories from protein a given food contains. Start by multiplying the number of protein grams by 4 to figure out how many calories of protein the item has. Then, divide the number of protein calories by the total calories in the food and multiply the sum by 100. For example, say a food contains 200 calories and 8 grams of protein. Multiply 8 by 4, which is 32 protein calories. Divide 32 by 200, giving you 0.16. When multiplied by 100, this comes out to 16, so 16% of the calories in that food come from protein. If you want to apply your knowledge to your diet, spend some time figuring out your rough protein requirements for a healthy diet. You can do this by talking to a doctor or fitness specialist about your diet, lifestyle, and any goals you have regarding fat loss or weight loss. A fitness specialist or doctor can help you figure out roughly how many calories from protein you should eat and if what is a high or low percentage protein in a given food based on your specific needs. It is generally accepted that your diet...

Article in English: For glossy and previously painted pieces of ceramic, opt for a ceramic or plastic-safe spray paint, which contain compounds that fuse to smooth surfaces. Use glossy spray paint for projects with more surface area where you want easy, even coverage with a minimal amount of work. If the ceramic isn’t already white, choose a ceramic-safe primer. Shake the can for 15-30 seconds before spraying the surface of the ceramic with a light coat. Then, let the coat dry for 2-3 hours, and then apply an additional coating of primer for more coverage. Apply the paint in zigzag lines all over the item, including the top, front, and sides. After you finish applying a coat, let the paint dry until it’s slightly tacky, which should take about 15-30 minutes. Then, apply an additional 1-3 coats of paint until it is completely coated. Place the painted item in a well-ventilated area to dry for 30 minutes to 1 hour. When you think the paint is dry, lightly touch an inconspicuous spot, like the back or bottom of the item, to ensure that the paint is completely cured.

Article in English: For grinding, attach grinding stones which can be fixed to the mandrel/shaft. Slide the grinding stone into the front of the tool where it is fully inserted and tighten. Turn your Dremel on and grind on a low setting so you don't overheat the material. Gently hold the grinding stone against the material until it wears down.  You can use grinding stones, grinding wheels, chain saw sharpening stones, abrasive wheels and abrasive points to grind a material. Carbide bits tend to work best on metal, porcelain, or ceramic. Use cylindrical or triangular tips for round grinds. To grind a notch into something or grind an inside corner, use a flat disc shape. Or, use cylindrical or triangular tips for round grinds. Select a sandpaper bit and secure it in your Dremel. Sandpaper bits are available in fine through course grits, and all grades should fit on the same mandrel. Tighten the screw at the end of the sandpaper bit. Turn on your Dremel and set it between 2 and 10. Choose lower settings if you're sanding or polishing plastics or woods. Select a higher setting if you're sanding metal. While holding the material secure, run the bit across the material so that the sandpaper bit completely comes into contact with your material and sharpens or sands it.  Make sure that the sanding bits are in good shape so they don't scuff or mark your material. They should fit in the drill snugly and shouldn't be worn. Have several sanding bits on hand so you can quickly replace them. To sand, you can use sanding bands, sanding discs, flap wheels, shaping wheels and finishing and detail abrasive brushes. If you've got a big job, begin with coarser bits before moving to softer bits. This can help you sand out larger scratches quickly and then you can have more control over working through the material. If you skip the coarse bit and begin with a softer bit, it will take you longer and you'll wear out the softer bit. Check the bit every minute or two to see if the bit is worn or torn. Remember to turn off and unplug the Dremel while you...

Article in English: For hair that has looser or medium curls, you may have success with wrapping your hair around your head when it’s wet. Comb your wet hair and part it down the middle. Comb the left portion all the way around your head, from back to front, and pin it in place throughout. Do the same with the right side of your hair. Allow your hair to air-dry, and sleep with a scarf over it for extra protection. Put wet, combed hair into 1 or 2 low, loose ponytails. Fasten more elastic hair bands loosely, so you don’t create dents in your hair, every inch down each ponytail. Sleep with the bands in your hair, and remove them in the morning. There are several homemade hair mask recipes that some people experience success with. All of them use basic kitchen ingredients and require leaving them on your hair for 30-60 minutes before rinsing them out.  Try 8 fluid ounces (240 mL) of whole or coconut milk mixed with 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of honey. Let it to soak into your hair for 1 hour before washing it out. Try mixing 16 fluid ounces (470 mL) of milk with 1 egg and soaking your hair in it for 10 minutes. Squeeze the excess out, and put on a plastic cap for another 30 minutes. Then wash it out and brush your hair dry. Combine 8 fluid ounces (240 mL) of coconut milk, 5 tablespoons (74 mL) of lemon juice, 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of olive oil, and 3 tablespoons (44 mL) of cornstarch. Heat the mixture at a low temperature until it’s smooth, and apply it to your hair for 30 minutes. Do this twice a week for 2 months as a natural relaxant.

Article in English: For heavier stains, you might need to apply chemicals that could be seriously abrasive to the leather. Consult care instructions and consider contacting the manufacturer to ask what the effect of a chemical will be on the leather. Before applying a more abrasive chemical to the leather, try putting some in an inconspicuous location, like near the bottom of the seat. If the chemical does not seem to damage the leather, you can use the chemical to treat a more noticeable part of the leather. Place the nail polish remove on a cotton swab or towel and dab it on another surface to remove excess liquid. Dab the paint, being careful to avoid spreading the nail polish remover across the leather more than is necessary. Rub until all paint is removed. If polish remover does not work, place rubbing alcohol on a cotton swab or towel. Remove excess liquid. Then rub the stain until all of the paint is removed. It is imperative that you get as little rubbing alcohol as possible on the leather, because it will dry it out. Use a damp towel with a mild soap to remove the chemicals. Afterward, use a dry towel to remove the water. Buy a professional leather conditioner from an auto supply store and apply it to the area. This will help to minimize the discoloration that may occur during the paint removal process and help keep the leather supple. Consider using leather conditioner after any of these treatments. It is most imperative, however, when using abrasive chemicals like nail polish remover and rubbing alcohol.

Article in English: For higher production, you don't want to leave your cucumbers on the vine too long or allow them to get too big. The best size at which to harvest your cucumbers depends on the variety you've planted.  Generally, Middle Eastern or Mediterranean cucumbers are shorter and thicker than American varieties. In contrast, Asian varieties typically are long and slender. American slicers generally should be 6 to 8 inches (15 to 20 cm) long. Middle Eastern varieties are best at 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm), while picklers should be harvested at 3 to 5 inches (7.6 to 12.7 cm). Generally speaking, the more frequently you pick cucumbers, the more cucumbers the plant will grow. Check your plants every day and pick the cucumbers that are around optimal size for their variety. While picking your cucumbers, check for weeds and inspect your plants for signs of any insects or disease. You should also check the soil and water as necessary. Cucumbers need plenty of water throughout their growth cycle. Take hold of the cucumber, then cut the stem about 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) above the end. Many people think they can simply pull or twist a cucumber off a vine. However, when you do this you risk damaging the vine. Try to use your cucumbers as soon as possible after you harvest them for the best flavor and texture. If necessary, you can keep them in the refrigerator for 7 to 10 days. Wrap them in plastic or put them in a zippered plastic bag before refrigerating them to keep them from drying out.

Article in English: For instance, a yew log can yield experience points for buyers who want to stretch bows, or it can be used to make fires. Items with more flexible uses will always be in demand. You want to trade items that people cannot access as easily, but you also want to avoid low supplies of rare items. Also, you want items that everyone needs, not just items for a niche of highly-skilled players. Because buy limits will only allow you to purchase a certain number of items per day, buy something that is more expensive as opposed to a cheaper item. A 5 percent return on 1,000GP is not as high as a 5% return on 10,000 GP. Just be sure not to spend all of your assets on 1 item. If you want to buy and hold, pick items that rise gradually in price. If you want to take a risk, buy an item that fluctuates rapidly in price. Just remember that more volatility means both more chance for wealth and more risk for loss.

Article in English: For instance, cats crave what veterinarians call "vertical challenges"; they will find counters less appealing if they have other objects to jump onto or climb. Cat trees, cat condos, or climbing posts give cats a place to climb, perch, and survey their surroundings. Being near the windows allows them to look at natural prey, which satisfies their curiosity  and stimulates them to the point that they will be less likely to jump onto countertops and other surfaces. Cat shelves are padded surfaces attached to the insides of window sills. Like cat trees and other cat furniture, cat shelves satisfy curiosity while stimulating your pet at the same time. Choose windows with good sun exposure, as cats do like to lay in the sun, and the cat shelf is a great place to do so in a window that gets a lot of sunlight. The cat shelf gives your cat(s) an alternative place to sleep and/or watch what's happening outside, which can help keep them distracted from countertops. These toys may help use up their energy so they will be less inclined to jump on counters. If you can keep your cat interested enough in toys that stay on the floor in particular, you may also be able to keep them from becoming interested in jumping onto countertops. Change the available toys occasionally so they don't get bored and start jumping on counters for new stimulation.  Many cats like simple toys, like small, fake mice that you can throw across the room for them to chase—they may even bring them back to you! Some cats will inevitably avoid expensive toys and play instead with empty plastic bags, boxes, laundry baskets, etc. Experiment with different types of toys to see what you cat likes before you buy an expensive toy. Many cat toys are now electronic, with toy mice that run around a track or even ones with wheels so they can roll across carpeting or other floors on their own. Still other toys incorporate LED lights and other technology. These toys can be very stimulating for cats, thereby keeping them off off-limits surfaces like countertops....

Article in English: For instance, if you loved to color, maybe you have a latent passion for design. If you were into building toys, such as building bricks or building logs, maybe your passion is more along the lines of architecture or construction. Don't just think about what you loved. You should also consider why you loved it. For instance, you may figure out that you loved building blocks because you loved the neat rows and colors, meaning you actually loved the organization of it. That is, if you suddenly inherited enough money that you didn't need to worry about rent or food, how would you spend your time? Think beyond sitting on the couch and watching television. Would you dive into a hobby? Volunteer? Visit the library or museum? What you would do points to what you're most passionate about. You know those moments when you lose all track of time because you are so absorbed in what you're doing? Those moments are the ones you need to pay attention to because you are obviously loving what you are doing. Learning what you don't like is just as important as learning what you do love. For one thing, it can show what you need to avoid when you're seeking out your passions and when you're seeking out a job. Start with the activities you dread. What do you dread about them? Why do you dread them? Once you answer these questions, you'll start to notice themes across the activities, such as maybe you don't like organizing or maybe you're not really a people person. Whether you use a journal, a poster, or board, make a space to put up the things that inspire you. Try putting up quotes, pictures, and ideas. Once you've started filling in your board, you'll start to notice themes, identifying some of your passions. Use anything you can get your hands on for your board, from the internet and junk mail to old magazines. When you find you are curious about something, take the time to do some research. You may find you are passionate about a subject just by following through on an idea. Use the internet or the library to start following...

Article in English: For instance, if you typically access social media on your phone, delete the apps from your phone.  If you tend to use social media on your computer, keep your computer turned off for the duration of your break from social media.  A less extreme alternative is to simply turn off social media notifications on your device of choice so that you are not tempted to look. If you turn off notifications, be sure to turn off email notifications, too. If you find that you’re fitter, happier, and more productive during your social media break, you might want to extend the break to a full-time social media deletion.  In this case, you’ll say goodbye to social media for good.  The process for deleting your account varies with social media platform.  Typically, it’s quick and easy, and requires simply navigating the user menu options to the section dealing with your account (which is usually called “Your Account”).  From there, just click “Delete My Account” (or some similar prompt) and confirm your decision. Remember, if you ever want to hop on a particular social media platform again later, you can, though you’d be starting from scratch. It’s easy to think of taking a break from social media as the exclusion of something.  But instead, consider your time without social media as a liberation from the demands you may have unconsciously placed on yourself to constantly post new content and engage in social media interactions.  Instead of posting on social media, you can now simply focus on enjoying whatever it is you’re doing wherever it is you are. Try keeping a mini journal with you and write in it whenever you notice that your day has been better than it usually is when you are always checking social media. There will probably be a few days where you really miss being on social media.  But after a time – three days, five days, or even a week depending on how connected you are to social media use – you’ll begin to feel the urge to use social media decline.  Stay strong through this rough period and know that it will pass....

Article in English: For instance, milkweed is a common place to find monarch caterpillars. Look up the type of butterfly you want to find first, so you have an idea of what they eat, where they lay eggs, what the caterpillar looks like, and what the eggs look like.  Look for feeding damage in the shade. On milkweed, for instance, milkweed bugs may damage the plant in the sun, but in the shade, it's more likely monarch caterpillar damage. Get in close. Some caterpillars will be pretty tiny, not bigger than 5 or 6 millimeters, though they can also get an inch or so long. The eggs are also fairly tiny. In the case of monarchs, they are tiny white balls. Don't take too many caterpillars from one spot. Leave some to grow up in the wild. A five-gallon bucket is sufficient for keeping 5 to 10 caterpillars. The bucket should have plenty of what the caterpillars eat, such as milkweed leaves, and you should provide a variety if your caterpillar eats more than one kind of leaf. In addition, it should have a screen roof for ventilation, so that the feces from the caterpillars can dry out and not harm them.  You can use a smaller enclosure, as long as you provide proper ventilation at the top. You can also place tissue paper or blank newspaper at the bottom to collect droppings. If you're putting leaves in the bottom of the bucket, you'll need to replenish them regularly. You can also put small branches in a glass of fresh water, which don't need to be replenished as often, as they'll stay good for longer.  If you do put branches in water, try to block most of the top of the glass or jar, so the caterpillars don't fall in and drown.  Consider rinsing leaves in water and leaving them wet. Doing so can provide the caterpillars with the moisture they need. You will need to clean out the cage regularly. You can clean out the cage once a day. Remove the paper you used and replace it. Also, take out any dead or dry leaves, as caterpillars won't eat anything but fresh leaves. Most caterpillars prefer branches or leaves, so make sure to provide...

Article in English: For instance, preeclampsia can lead to preterm labor. Preeclampsia is extremely high blood pressure during your pregnancy.  Other pregnancy complications include gestational diabetes and too much amniotic fluid.  Problems with the placenta can also cause preterm labor, such as placental abruption.  Another issue could be if your uterus is not shaped normally. Your doctor should be checking you for all these issues so that she will know if you are at risk. If you have high blood pressure or diabetes before you get pregnant, you can also be at risk for a preterm labor. Other chronic diseases can also cause issues, such as kidney or heart disease.  Even something as small as gum disease can put you at risk for preterm labor. In fact, when you get pregnant, you have a higher chance of developing gum disease because of the hormones in your body.  Pay extra attention to dental health while pregnant, by flossing, brushing, and using mouthwash twice a day at least. If you've had a preterm pregnancy in the past, you are more likely to have one in the future. Let your doctor know if about your pregnancy history so she can assess your risk. Also, if your mother gave birth to you early, you may also give birth early. If you have a history of a preterm delivery, your doctor can talk to you about the medications available to help prevent this from happening again. If you have severe injury or trauma, that can put you at risk for preterm labor. Obviously, you don't have control over events that cause trauma, such as car accidents, but try to not put yourself in dangerous situations while pregnant. For instance, if you are having twins or triplets, you are more likely to give birth early. In addition, your age can affect your pregnancy. If you are an older mother, you may give birth earlier.

Article in English: For instance, the command "stay" can be broken into a number of steps. The first step is to teach your dog to sit and not get up until you tell her to. Then, you can move on to staying for a short time. Next, move on to staying for a longer period. One trick you might want to teach your border collie is "down," since border collies like to herd anything they animal or person they can find. By teaching them this trick, you'll be able to control their behavior better when they start to herd, especially if you pair it with other commands such as "drop." That is, always use the same word for the same behavior. Switching between "sit" and "sit down" can confuse your dog. Pick one, and stick to it. Border collies are also smart enough to learn whistle commands. Border collies will pick up on the command quickly, so just say it once and teach the behavior. If you say it multiple times, she may expect you to say it multiple times every time you give the command. For instance, if you want to teach a dog to sit, hold the treat an inch in front of her nose. Slowly move the treat above her head. This movement encourages her to sit. Don't forget to use the command in conjunction with the action. Once the dog sits, praise her and give her the retreat. Once the dog starts learning the trick, you can still guide the dog but take away the treat. Reward him with praise and petting. Instead of fading out the treats completely, you can use intermittent reinforcement. That is, only reward the dog with a treat at random times. That way, she will still do what you want with the hope of getting a treat, but she won't expect one every time. Border collies are smart enough to understand this process. Over time, keep repeating the command so that your dog will slowly learn what you want her to do. Most dogs get bored easily, and it can be especially true with border collies, given their high intelligence. Don't let a training session go beyond 15 minutes. That is, don't try to teach the same trick for the whole 15 minutes. You can do...

Article in English: For instances where the radius of the curve is three inches or greater, you can cautiously bend the laminate without heating it, so start by measuring the radius of the curve. You can measure this by locating the spot on each side of the counter’s rounded edge where the curve begins and drawing straight lines perpendicular to those edges to the point where they intersect. Then measure the length of that intersection back to the edge.  You can think of the point of intersection as the point where you’d put the pin of a compass in order to trace the edge of the curve.  The larger the radius of the curve, the gentler the bend. If the radius is three inches or more, then you can attempt to cold bend your laminate. In order to stop any gaps, bubbles, or distorting of the laminate, you need to make sure that the vertical edge around which the laminate will bend is perfectly square with the top surface of the counter. Check this by ensuring that the horizontal surface edge and vertical edge come together perfectly with a T-square. If the edge is not perfectly square, then you can smooth down the vertical surface with a belt sander to finish preparing it for the laminate. You want to use a strip of laminate that is roughly 1/2” wider than the width of the edge to which you’re attaching it. This is just in case the laminate shifts a tiny bit as you bend it into place. It’s easier to use a router to trim the excess after the piece is in place than it is to place it perfectly. After applying your laminate glue to the strip, do NOT attach the laminate by starting at the curve and folding the sides back. You want to start with the end of the strip on one of the straight sides of the edge before the curve. Use a J-roller to roll this section down tight before bending over the curve. A J-roller is a roller with a rubber head that allows you to roll any bubbles out of the laminate without damaging the surface. You should have one handy for all laminate projects. Now that one end of the strip is firmly in place, begin slowly...

Article in English: For jewelry decorated with porous gems, watches, antiques that have pieces held with glue, or other delicate silver pieces that can’t be immersed in water or cleaned with the electrolysis method, there are still several options for cleaning.  Mix one tablespoon (15 ml) dishwashing soap (something that’s phosphate-free and ammonia-free) with one cup (240 ml) warm water and stir well. If you want, use a hand blender to mix up some suds. Dip a soft cloth into the soapy water and wring out the excess. Use the damp cloth to clean the silver. Rinse out the cloth with plain water, and wipe off any leftover soap residue. Use a fresh cloth to buff and dry the silver. Take a tablespoon (15 g) of baking soda and mix it with just enough water to make a paste. With a soft-bristled toothbrush or cloth, clean the silver with the paste, making sure to get into the nooks and crannies with the bristles. When the silver is clean, rinse it under warm water or remove the excess paste with a damp cloth. Buff it dry with a clean cloth. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 teaspoon (6 ml) lemon juice and 1.5 cups (327 ml) olive oil. Dip a cloth into the mixture, wring out the excess, and use this to polish your silver.  For small pieces that can be immersed, soak them in the oil and lemon solution and place the bowl into a small saucepan. Fill the saucepan with enough water to bring the bowl off the bottom and turn the heat to medium. Bring up the water temperature and keep it hot, but not boiling, for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat and take the silver out of the oil and lemon juice solution. Gently scrub the silver with a soft toothbrush. For either the hot bath or the polishing method, rinse the silver with hot water to remove excess solution, and dry it with a soft cloth. Glass cleaners like Windex can also be used to clean silver. Spray some glass cleaner directly onto a soft cloth or soft-bristled toothbrush. Use the cloth to clean the silver, and then either rinse the piece under warm water or wipe off the excess...
