Article in English: Apologize early and often; admit that you were wrong (if you were) and take responsibility.  Tell him that you were wrong and that you won’t do it (whatever it was) again. And then don’t do that thing again. Don’t use the sorry-not-really-sorry line of “I’m sorry you got so upset.” It shifts the responsibility onto him and makes it sound as if you’re not sorry for your actions, you just wish he wouldn’t get mad about it. If he responds with a--potentially justified--angry text, apologize again. Continue apologizing if he comes at you with more angry responses. Simply say something like, “I’m sorry--I was wrong.” Just apologizing or trying to explain that your intentions were good won’t work.  Saying you’re sorry isn’t enough--you need to show you recognize the negative consequences your actions had on him and that you sincerely regret it.  If he feels like you genuinely understand why your actions made him mad, he’s more likely to feel validated and begin forgiving you. Even if you don’t necessarily think his feelings or reaction is justified, apologize anyway. If you want him to like you again, you want him to see you understand how he’s feeling. Even if you say you’re sorry, it won’t be enough to make him like you again if you then start saying things that will escalate the situation.  Don’t, for example, say anything about thinking his reactions were irrational or unjustified. It will make him feel like you aren’t really sorry and don’t really understand the situation--and he’ll go back to being mad.  Don’t bring up things he’s done to upset you in the past. Turning the conversation into a tit-for-tat about who did what to who isn’t going to diffuse the situation. It will only make it drag on longer and make him less likely to forgive you. Asking for his input on what you can do shows that you’re listening to him and genuinely want to know what would make things better from his perspective. For example, you might say something like, “I know you had to wait 45 minutes for me and that it probably felt like I...

Summary in Russian:

Извинитесь. Покажите, что вы понимаете, как ваши действия сказались на нем. Не обостряйте ситуацию. Спросите, что вы можете сделать, чтобы загладить свою вину. Заставьте его улыбнуться. Дайте ему знать, что вы думаете о нем.


Article in English: Apologizing too much signals to ourselves and others that we are ashamed or regretful of something about our very presence. This is best seen in situations where you clearly did nothing wrong in the moment (e.g., bumping into a chair and apologizing to it). If there is nothing to take the blame for, why do you apologize?  Emotionally sensitive people who care about the feelings and experiences of others more than their own may over-apologize. This can result in a steady but hard to recognize disrespect or denial of one's own value.  Studies have shown that apologies more frequently reflect shame than a belief that a wrong has been committed. Men tend to apologize much less frequently than women, and research suggests that this is because women tend to have a wider sense of what constitutes offensive behavior. Men often have a very limited sense of what might be seen as offensive. Because more possible offenses exist in women's perceptions, they are likely to feel responsible more often than men do. Excessive apologizing in women is partly an issue of social conditioning for which you are not at fault. While changing this habit requires effort, it can be comforting to know that it is not necessarily something "wrong" with you. How are others in your life affected when you apologize too often? Not only are you likely to be discounted as inadequate or incompetent, but people close to you may begin to suffer, too. Apologizing may cause others to feel isolated for not understanding the offense or as if they are so threatening and harsh that their behavior is causing you to apologize frequently. For example, if you say "sorry, I arrived a few minutes early" the other person may wonder what is causing you to walk on eggshells with her. Perhaps she will also feel that her big smile when you walked in early was ignored or unappreciated.

Article in English: Appeal to the crowd and the judges by using body language that is engaging and fun to watch. This means making eye contact with the audience, smiling at the audience, and putting your body into your performance. Use expansive gestures and movements if you are doing a dance routine or performing with a band. Demonstrate energy and enthusiasm towards the audience, as this will make the audience feel more engaged during your act. Facial expressions are a key element of performance, especially if you are a singer or a dancer. Practice an open expression by keeping your eyes wide and open as you perform. Lift your eyebrows slightly when you are hitting a high note or holding a dance movement. Keep your mouth relaxed and open. Use your smile at the end of your performance to show the audience you are happy with your performance, and they should be as well. Remember that you are performing for an audience, who will be watching your every move. Be aware of how you appear when you perform by practicing your performance in front of a mirror. This could be a full length mirror in your bedroom or a mirror in a dance studio or practice space. Avoid the performance jitters by doing a dry run of your performance in front of a receptive, friendly audience of family and friends. Set up a mock stage and a few seats in your living room. Try to pretend you are in the auditorium where you will be perform at the talent show and give it your all. You should feel more comfortable and confident performing in front of friends and family. After you perform for family and friends, you should ask them for feedback and listen patiently to what they have to say. They may give you basic feedback, like project your singing voice more, hold a certain note, or make sure you acknowledge the crowd at the end of your act. Take this feedback and use it to improve your act so it is ready for the real talent show.

Article in English: Apple cider vinegar can be used on all types of warts. The acid in the vinegar attacks the wart area, causing it to peel away from the healthy surrounding skin, taking the virus with it. It is safe to use on the face and other parts of the body. Dilute it up to 50% with water.  In fact, the malic and lactic acids found in the vinegar can help to soften and exfoliate the skin. These ingredients are commonly used to treat acne on the face. To apply apple cider vinegar, soak a cotton ball in vinegar (about half-soaked) and place it on the facial wart. Then, cover the area with an adhesive bandage for 24 hours. Garlic’s caustic effect will cause the facial wart to blister and fall off in about one week. The substance allicin in garlic has an antiviral effect that kills a broad spectrum of viruses, including human papilloma virus.  Crush the garlic and apply it to the facial warts. Hold it in place with tape for 24 hours. Change the garlic and tape daily. Lemons are an everyday item with a variety of cleansing properties. The citric acid in lemons contains vitamin C, thought to kill the virus that causes warts. This may also help to soften the wart, making it easier to remove. Apply to the facial warts at least three times per day. Although this remedy is not medically verified, some people claim that it works fast. Duct tape supposedly works because of how the body reacts to substances that are contained in it. The use of the duct tape will irritate your skin, which can cause the formation of antibodies that will help get rid of the virus causing your facial warts. This must be done for periods of six days, up to a maximum of two months.  Cover your facial warts with duct tape when you sleep, and then remove it right away when you wake up in the morning. Repeat this procedure as necessary until the wart is removed. Banana mash contains a proteolytic enzyme (an enzyme that breaks down protein) that digests and dissolves the facial wart. This can be an easy and soothing way to remove facial warts. Use surgical tape...

Article in English: Apple cider vinegar contains its own healing, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal properties. It is also known to treat burns and skin inflammations. You can soak the affected body part in a mixture of equal parts apple cider vinegar and water.  You can also use cotton balls to apply ACV to the skin. Just pour small amounts of apple cider vinegar to the cotton balls and directly apply to affected areas. You can do this twice per day until patches and redness have improved. If your skin gets easily irritated refrain from using this method, as apple cider vinegar is quite acidic. If you have an aloe vera plant at home you can just slice one of its leaves horizontally and apply the gel-like sap directly onto the plaque. This will smooth and naturally moisturize dry scaly patches.  You can also purchase aloe gel in local pharmacies and grocery stores. Apply 3 times a day or more, depending on the dryness of the patches. Sunlight exposure is the simplest yet one of the most effective methods of treating plaque psoriasis. Try exposing affected body parts to sunlight for 10 minutes of noontime sun every day and gradually increase the exposure time by 30 seconds each day.  Take precautions as heat from sunlight causes sunburns. If you choose to expose yourself to sunlight don’t apply any cream as this can make you more sensitive to heat but you should apply sunscreens to unaffected areas. If you expose the affected skin to sunlight on a consistent daily basis, you will gradually notice your symptoms improving over time. Coal tar is an effective treatment for plaque psoriasis. It is made of coal and wood and helps to reduce inflammation, remove scales, and slow the growth of excess skin cells.  Coal tar penetrates layers of the skin and reduces excessive thickening and scaling of the skin – it does this by breaking down a protein named keratin, which is responsible for skin growth and formation. This is also an OTC drug/ointment/cream that can be bought in most pharmacies. The greater the concentration of this product,...

Article in English: Apple cider vinegar has long been used as a home remedy for liver cleansing and blood purification.  However, it also has an array of other benefits, such as aiding digestion, promoting weight loss and clearing acne. Keep in mind that apple cider vinegar will only work as a liver detoxifier if combined with a healthy balanced diet. Be certain to buy organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar, as this contains a higher nutritional content. Shake the bottle before pouring to distribute the thicker, hazier-looking layer at the bottom — this is known as "the mother" and is the most nutritious part of the vinegar. Apple cider vinegar can be used to detox your liver on an ongoing basis and doesn't require any fasting.  All you need to do is add 2 to 3 teaspoons of the vinegar to an 8oz glass of water and drink it before every meal. Alternatively, you can add 1 or 2 tablespoons of the apple cider vinegar to a large glass of water and drink it first thing in the morning, on an empty stomach. Alternative ways to add more apple cider vinegar to your diet include:  Making a tea by adding a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to hot water and adding honey to sweeten. Making a salad dressing by mixing apple cider vinegar with flaxseed oil and honey.

Article in English: Apple cider vinegar may help in treating blistered sunburns by absorbing the heat from the skin and relieving the burning sensation and the pain. The acetic acid and malic acid in vinegar can neutralize sunburns and re-establish pH levels in the affected area. This prevents infection by making the skin environment inhospitable to microorganisms.  To apply apple cider vinegar, mix the vinegar with cold water and soak a soft cloth into the solution and apply or drape it on the affected skin. Vinegar can also be directly sprayed onto the sunburn skin. The use of vinegar is only recommended for skin without abrasions, open cuts or ruptures because it can burn and irritate the skin. Turmeric contains antiseptic and antibacterial properties that may help ease the pain and inflammation caused by the sunburn and blistering. Here are some tips to apply turmeric powder:  Combine turmeric powder with water or milk to make a paste. Then, apply it on your blisters for 10 minutes before rinsing it off gently. Mix turmeric powder, barley, and yogurt to produce a thick paste and cover the affected skin. Let it sit for about half an hour, and then wash it off with cold water. Tomato juice can lessen the burning sensation, reduce the redness of the affected area, and improve the healing of the sunburn.  To apply, combine 1/4 cup of tomato paste or juice to 1/2 cup of buttermilk. Apply the mixture on your burned skin for about half an hour and wash it gently with cold water. Alternatively, add two cups of tomato juice to your bathwater and bathe your body in it for 10 to 15 minutes. For instant pain relief, apply mashed raw tomato mixed with crushed ice to the affected area. You could even try eating more tomatoes. One study has shown that people who ate five tablespoons of lycopene-rich tomato paste for three months had 25% more protection against sunburn. Raw potatoes may help heat escape from the burned skin, leaving behind cooled skin that hurts less and heals faster.  Blend rinsed, cleaned, and sliced raw potato to produce...

Article in English: Apple juice and yeast are the only essential ingredients, but there are a few other ingredients that can be added in order to alter the final product.  You can either use apple juice or apple cider. Many prefer the taste of pasteurized, sweet apple cider, but you could use fresh apple juice just as easily. Note, however, that unpasteurized juice will need to be sanitized before you can ferment it. Dry wine yeasts are affordable and effective. Beer yeasts are also affordable, and many beginning cider makers find them easier to work with. Specialized yeast packages specifically labeled for use with hard apple cider are also available but tend to be more expensive. Pectic enzyme helps clear cloudiness and is often used with heat-brewed cider. Adding sugar to the cider will product a higher alcohol content. The extra apple juice is only needed if you plan to use a starter. All of your supplies need to be washed with hot water and mild dish detergent before use.  Rinse well to remove any soapy residue. Let the supplies dry completely before use. Wild bacteria can cause the cider to taste bad and can even turn your batch of hard cider into vinegar. This step is only optional, but creating a starter allows you to verify that your yeast is alive and active and begins the fermentation process quicker.  Pour your apple juice into a resealable container with a tight lid. Pour half of your yeast into the apple juice, seal the container, and shake well for a few seconds. When bubbling occurs, release the pressure inside the container by opening the lid. Note that it may take five to six hours before bubbling starts. Reseal the lid and place the container in the refrigerator overnight. Remove the starter a few hours before you brew your cider.

Article in English: Apple trees must be planted in pairs in order to bear fruit—apple trees are not self-pollinating, so they need a different kind of apple tree to pollinate with. You can either extract the seeds from an apple you are eating, or buy apple seeds at the store. Keep in mind that growing an apple tree from the seeds you have collected does not necessarily guarantee that the tree produced from these seeds will bear fruit or be the same kind of apple. Try to pick or buy seeds of apple trees that do well in your climate zone or else your tree may die once planted outside.  If you want to grow apples for their fruit, it is recommended that you buy a sapling tree from a nursery rather than growing an apple tree from seed. To learn how to transplant a young tree, click  here.  When attempting to grow an apple tree from seed, you should also keep in mind that the tree produced will not have any dwarfing characteristics (meaning that it will grow to its full height of about 30 feet/9 meters). If you think you have enough room in your yard for this tree, great! You should also keep in mind that trees planted from seeds could take 8 to 10 years to produce fruit, while a transplanted sapling will produce fruit in a much faster time frame.

Article in English: Apples are ready for picking earlier in warmer areas than the fruits in colder climates because the heat helps them ripen. Likewise, south-facing fruits will get more sunlight and be ready for picking earlier than apples on the north side of the tree.  In cooler climates, harvest time is generally September through October. In warmer climates, harvest time could be anywhere from late summer through early spring. The most obvious sign to watch for is color. Golden delicious apples will change from green to yellow when they are ready to be harvested and red delicious will turn entirely red. If the tree produces apples with stripes or red blush, the green part of the apple will turn yellow when it is ready to pick.  Unfortunately, some of the newer apple tree cultivars are not so obvious. The skin on these apples may turn entirely red before they are ready for harvest or the green part of the skin may not turn yellow until the apples are stored for a few months. To overcome this obstacle, heck the flesh of the apple before harvesting all of them to determine if they are ready. When these apples are ready to harvest the flesh will have changed from pale green to white. The color of the indentation near the stem is another way to tell on certain varieties. The shade of this area generally lightens as the apples ripen. Apple trees naturally drop their apples when they are ripe to self-seed and reproduce. Watch for an apple or two to drop from the tree to determine if they are ready to pick.  When your apples are ripe, they should be fairly easy to pick from the tree with a simple upward twist of the apple. Try to avoid picking an apple by pulling the fruit straight down and tugging. If otherwise healthy fruits begin to fall off the tree, they are probably beginning to get a little too ripe and should probably be harvested as soon as possible. Apples that are nearing maturity will generally have dark brown seeds rather than white ones. However, keep in mind that this may not be the case for varieties that ripen...

Article in English: Apples turn brown due to an enzyme in the fruit that reacts with oxygen in the air. This process is known as "oxidation." Lemon juice works to prevent oxidation as it contains citric acid, which is an effective anti-oxidant. You can use either freshly squeezed or reconstituted lemon juice, though it may be best to only use this method on sweeter types of apple, as the lemon juice will add tartness. To use lemon juice to stop your cut apples from turning brown, you can use one of two methods:  You can also use lemon to prevent browning by soaking the apple pieces in a bowl of cold water and lemon juice. You should use a ratio of one tablespoon of lemon juice to one cup of water. You only need to soak the apple for 3-5 minutes, before draining and rinsing. Lime juice can be used in place of the lemon juice in these methods, as limes also contain the citric acid necessary to prevent oxidation. Pineapple juice is another good option.

Leave about 2 millimeters of empty space at the top. Poke small holes throughout the foil that are evenly spaced. Light the coals and smoke the hookah. Because of the coolness of the fruit, you may have to use a few more coals than usual to get your smoke going.

Article in English: Apply 1 coat and allow it to dry for 24 hours. If the hardware store professional told you that your oak surface has not been filled, you will need to use an extra thick primer. For best results, rent a paint sprayer from a hardware store to apply primer and paint to the doors and drawers. Otherwise, use small foam rollers for the cabinet surfaces that remain in the house. If you don't have a paint sprayer, use a foam roller on the doors and an angled brush to get into the smaller spaces. It is not recommended that you use a brush to do all the surfaces.    Wipe it with a tack cloth. Apply a second coat of primer, and wait 24 hours before painting again. Apply the paint with a small foam roller to cabinet ends inside the house. Allow the coat to dry for 24 hours, unless otherwise directed by the paint's label. This amount will depend upon how well the paint covers your current finish. Some people wait up to 2 weeks to ensure the paint is well-cured and will not stick. If you plan to paint the inside of your doors, wait 5 days before turning them and repeating the primer and paint procedure.     Dispose of drop cloths. Clean your paint rollers and brushes thoroughly.

Article in English: Apply a chemical stripper in a well-ventilated area. Spread the stripper onto the surface with a brush, and then scrape it off with a putty knife. Always wear protective clothing, such as rubber gloves, a ventilation mask and long-sleeved clothing when you are working with chemical stripper. Start with a medium-grit paper to get rid of dings and scratches. Then, finish with a fine-grit paper to smooth the surface. Then, wipe the surface with a tack cloth. Clean up excess dust from your area with a shop vacuum before you start painting or leafing. If you are painting the surface with brown paint, you may want to start with a layer of primer before you paint the surface with interior paint. Read the paint or primer instructions indicating how long it takes to cure.

Article in English: Apply a clear base coat of nail polish to all of your nails before you apply your colored polish. The thin layer of base coat acts as a barrier to the dyes in the colored polish that can stain your nails and turn them yellow. Allow the base coat to dry for about 5 minutes before proceeding to paint them with your colored polish. A base coat also serves as an anchor for the colored polish to hold onto. Dark nail polishes (black, purple, blue, red) have pigments that can discolor your nails if the polish has direct contact with your nails. Applying base coat can help prevent this color staining, but in general, try opting for lighter polish colors every once in a while. Using lighter or sheer nail polish colors can give your nails a break from the harsh dyes found in darker polishes. Try giving your nails a break from nail polish altogether. Allow your nails to be naked and breathe about 3-4 days every few weeks. Going without nail polish for a few days will allow your nails to naturally be exposed to air for a bit before being painted over again.

Article in English: Apply a cold compress, washcloth filled with ice, or a bag of frozen vegetables to the swollen area in 10-minute intervals. Apply the ice pack for approximately 20 minutes every hour during the first couple days of healing.  Begin this treatment immediately and continue it for 24 to 48 hours.  Press on the skin around the eye, not on the eye itself. Make sure you wrap the ice pack in a towel or cloth. Applying ice directly to your skin can cause skin damage and frostbite. If the pain or discomfort is hard to bear, take an over-the-counter pain reliever. Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is generally considered to be the best option. Ibuprofen (Advil) works too, depending upon which you have available. Both are available for purchase over-the-counter at your local pharmacy or drugstore.  Aspirin should be avoided since it decreases the blood's clotting ability.  Follow the instructions on the label when taking the medication. For acetaminophen, don't take more than 4 g in 24 hours. For ibuprofen, the max dose is 2 g in 24 hours. If you have kidney or liver problems, talk with a doctor before taking pain medications like these. Oftentimes, a black eye can be accompanied by significant swelling around the eye. If this is the case for you, and if it is challenging to open your eye, there is no need to force it open unnecessarily. As long as you have ruled out that it is nothing more serious than a black eye (that there are no other medical concerns), there is no problem with keeping your injured eye shut if it is painful to open. As your black eye heals (which normally takes one to two weeks in total), you will want to ensure that you wear glasses or other protective gear if you find yourself in any situation that could potentially cause further damage to your eye. Or, if you injured your eye during sports, refrain from participating in this sport until your eye has fully healed. A black eye is bad enough, but not necessarily serious on its own. If accompanied by other eye injuries, however, you will need to seek...

Article in English: Apply a deck cleaner, degreaser, or stain remover to the stain. Rub the stain with a soft nylon brush. Add more pressure if the stain isn’t being removed. Rinse the cleaner with water. Oxygenated bleach contains sodium carbonate and mixes with water to create oxygen. Mix the four scoops of oxygenated bleach with warm or hot water until it is fully dissolved in a five gallon bucket. Pour the solvent over dry stone in sections. Let the solution sit for 10 to 12 minutes.  Scrub the first section with a brush while letting the second section sit on the stone. Rinse the first section before scrubbing the second section. Bleach can be used to clean dirt, stains, and algae from your stone patio. Mix equal parts bleach with water in a bucket or watering can. Cover the stone with it. Let it sit for around 10 minutes, then brush the stains with a broom. Rinse it well with clean water. You should probably rinse multiple times.  Use thin, plain bleach for this. Don't use bleach that has added detergents and other chemicals. These thicker formulas with added ingredients don't clean as well and may clump on the stone. Just buy basic bleach. Bleach can kill plants if the solution touches it. Baking soda has an abrasive structure that can help remove stains. You can mix baking soda with vinegar, or two parts bleach with three parts baking soda to make a stain-removing paste. Cover the stain with the paste and then use the brush to scrub the stain. Rinse the paste with clean water.

Article in English: Apply a few drops of mineral spirits to a clean, soft rag until the cloth feels damp. Wipe the surface of the wood door with the moistened rag, always going with the grain of the wood. This should work to help remove any dirt or grime buildup. Mineral spirits are also called paint thinner. You can purchase this product at any home improvement store. Apply some liquid furniture polish on the surface of the wooden door and use a clean dish cloth to rub it into the grain of the wood. This will help remove any existing stains and restore the wood’s natural sheen. This is especially important for use after applying mineral spirits to the wood. Get a steam cleaning machine with a hose attachment and add a tiny bit of soap to the bristles at the end. Spray the steam at the stains on the dirty wood and move it back and forth across the stained portions. The dirt should just disappear as you do this.  Make sure you rinse off any soapy residue with a clean rag when you are done. You can rent steam cleaners from most grocery stores or carpet repair stores. or varnish. If your wood door has an old paint finish or other kind of varnish that you want to remove, there are a couple of options. You can sand the old varnish off – a very time consuming task. Or you can use chemical strippers to remove the layers of paint.   Either option will work well, but remember that chemical stripping must be done in a ventilated area with proper precautions (like wearing a dust mask). There are several types of chemical strippers – liquid, brushable pastes, and wash away strippers. In any case, you apply the chemical stripper to the wooden door and let it sit until dry. Then you brush off the remnants (or rinse it off, depending on the kind of stripper you are using).  This method is particularly effective for exterior wood doors.

Article in English: Apply a generous layer, enough to cover the stain to about 1/4 inch (1/2 cm) thick. The baking soda will absorb the smell and also help lift the stain from the fibers. The baking soda will begin to fizz. Rub the stain with your fingers or a toothbrush. Try to rub out as much of the stain as possible. Rinse the baking soda/lemon juice mixture from the clothing with warm water. Before soaking, agitate the detergent by rubbing it with your fingers, scrubbing it with a toothbrush, or rubbing the fabric against itself.  Allow the garment to soak for at least an hour, maybe more if the stain is very stubborn. Rinse the clothing with warm water after soaking. Treat the stain with dishwashing liquid once more, then wash as normal.

Article in English: Apply a glass-etching product to your scratched lenses.  It works by removing the anti-glare and anti-scratch coatings on your plastic lenses but leaves the original plastic lens intact.  Use a glass-etching chemical on plastic lenses only, never glass. Other specialty products temporarily fill the scratches on your lenses making them less visible but leaving behind a glossy film. Be careful not clean and polish your lenses to the point that you change the thickness of the surface.  Any product or procedure that changes the surface of an eyeglass lens can also change the refraction and effectiveness of that lens. Abrasive cleansers, baking soda and toothpaste call all be used to polish scratched surfaces. Waxy products like Lemon Pledge and Carnauba cleaner wax actually fill light scratches with wax.  However, the wax will reduce your visibility and require reapplication every few days. You can also try rubbing alcohol or diluted ammonia.  After treating your glasses with one of these products, polish them with a soft cloth, ideally one made especially for cleaning glasses. Lenses are delicate and should be treated with care to prevent them from getting scratched.  Use an eyeglass case.  A sturdy, cushioned case will protect your eyeglasses; place them in a case rather than in your pocket or throwing them directly into your purse. Wash your lenses.  Clean your glasses every day with soapy water and dry them with a clean, soft cloth made for this purpose. Stay away from unfriendly products.  Some products can harm your lenses and should be avoided.  Don't use facial tissues or paper towels to clean your lenses and stay away from anti-bacterial soaps when you wash them. Be careful when using hairspray, perfume or nail polish remover--they can remove the coatings on lenses.

Article in English: Apply a hair mask at least once a month to provide deep conditioning and to encourage softness and shine. Use a hair mask that's specially designed for your hair type, whether your hair is dry, oily or colored. Good hair masks can be found in pharmacies and hair salons. Alternatively, you can make your own hair mask, using ingredients from your kitchen.   For all hair types: avocado and honey: Cut and scoop out the flesh from a ripened avocado and mix in a tablespoon of organic honey. Apply to hair and allow it to sit for 20 minutes before rinsing it off in the shower.   For dry hair: olive oil and egg: Combine three tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with two eggs and apply the mixture to your hair and let the mixture sit for 20 minutes before rinsing in the shower with cool water (so the egg doesn't cook!). If you do not like the smell of raw eggs, you can use a ready egg oil (eyova) instead.    For oily hair: apple cider vinegar and lemon: Combine 1/4 cup of apple cider vinegar with the grated peel of an entire lemon and allow it to set for 15 minutes to absorb the excess oil from your scalp, and then rinse in the shower.    For flaky scalp: banana, honey and almond: Mash together 1/2 a ripe banana and add two tablespoons of honey and a few drops of almond oil and allow it to set with a shower cap on for 20 minutes before rinsing. Apply to serum to wet hair before drying, or to freshly blow-dried hair. It will help keep your hair soft and shiny, while minimizing frizz.  Usually only a very small amount of serum is required (dime-sized amount). Apply serum to ends and mid lengths of hair, but avoid the roots, otherwise your hair will look greasy. It is crucial to apply some sort of heat protection product before subjecting your hair to high temperatures from irons and dryers. Heat is your hair's worst enemy, so use a heat-protection spray to lock in moisture and minimize burning and breakage.  Heat protection products come in many forms, including sprays, serums, mousses and creams. Always apply heat...

Article in English: Apply a leather cleaner to the scuffed area, using the cleaner according to its label’s instructions. Cleaning the area will remove dirt or oils, which will prevent discoloration and ensure the glue will set properly. It will also open the leather’s pores, making it more receptive to the products you’ll use to repair and recolor it. Gently run a spatula or the back of a knife against the grain of the scuff. Your goal is to carefully lift the scuffed fibers away from the surface. That way, you’ll be able to access the area underneath the fibers with leather glue. Apply a few drops of leather glue onto the edge of your spatula or the back of your knife. Pull the tool against the grain of the scuff to apply the glue to the underside of the scuffed fibers. Use short, even strokes to thoroughly and carefully apply the glue. After applying glue against the grain, rub the tool with the grain of the scuff to flatten the area and remove air bubbles. Rubbing with the grain will lower the scuffed fibers back into place, so they’re even with the leather surface. Use your finger to gently massage the area and remove excess glue. If you can match a recoloring marker to your leather, apply it in thin coats. Feather the outer edges of the recolored area to blend it with the surrounding leather. Light scuffs might not need any recoloring at all, so use your judgment after applying the leather glue.

Article in English: Apply a light oil that will not stain or dry the metal components. You can use commercial products such as WD-40, 3-In-One, Clean Streak, and Metal Brite.  Use a clean rag to apply a thin layer of oil directly to the blade. Use as little oil as possible because a thick layer of oil may attract dust and debris. Leave the knife open and allow the oil to soak into the blade for two to three days. This should loosen up the rust spots and make them easier to remove. After two to three days, use the tip of a sharp knife to carefully scrape off the rust spots. You can also use a piece of steel wool. If you work slowly and carefully, you can remove the rust while leaving much of the original finish of the blade intact. You can purchase non-toxic rust removal products in hardware and auto parts stores, such as Evapo-Rust. These products are gentler than some of the other acid-based chemical solvents that you can use to remove rust.  To use a product like Evapo-Rust, pour some of the product into a bucket and then immerse the knife blade in the solution. Leave the knife to soak in the solution for 30 minutes or overnight if it is really rusty. Rinse off the excess product and dry the knife with a clean, dry cloth. CLR is a commercial cleaner that removes calcium, lime, and rust from any metal surface. It is often used on old plumbing and appliances, but it can also be used to remove rust from a knife blade.  Dip the blade of your knife directly into a solution of half CLR and half warm water. Avoid getting CLR on the knife handle, if it is made of anything other than metal (e.g. plastic, bone, wood, stone). Rinse the blade right away with cold water. Do not soak the blade in CLR for any longer than two minutes, as this may damage the metal. If stains persist, use CLR at full strength (not diluted with water), and rinse right away with cold water. CLR is a caustic substance. Clean your knife in a well-ventilated area, and use gloves when handling CLR. Do not mix CLR with other household cleaners, as this may cause a...

Article in English: Apply a moisturizing lotion every morning and evening, focusing on your knees. Look for lotions that contain petrolatum as an ingredient, which forms a protective barrier on the skin to trap moisture.  Dryness is one of the most common causes of dark skin throughout the body. If you stop applying moisturizer regularly, the dark spots on your knees may return. If you have a darker skin tone, you may be more susceptible to skin damage and scarring on your knees. Each morning, apply a sunscreen to your knees, especially if you’re wearing shorts, a skirt, or a dress. Many experts recommend that   While it’s not easy to reverse hyperpigmentation or scarring, you can prevent it from getting worse by wearing sunscreen. In some cases, using sunscreen can even remove dark spots entirely! If you do have permanent dark spots, look for a whitening cream that contains 2% hydroquinone as an ingredient. Rub the cream on your knees everyday for 4-6 weeks for the best results.  For people with sensitive skin, hydroquinone can cause inflammation. If you feel a burning or tingling sensation when you apply the cream, rinse your knees with cold water immediately. Avoid using lightening creams for longer than 6 weeks. They can cause skin irritation and damage to the outer layer of skin, and long-term use of whitening cream has been linked to certain types of cancer.

Article in English: Apply a small amount of the grapeseed oil to a small area on your cheek or neck. Observe the area for 24 hours to see if your skin becomes irritated or if you have an allergic reaction. Look out for redness, swelling, itching, or an outbreak of hives or other signs of irritation. If you experience an allergic reaction, do not use the oil. It is important to test any new product first to prevent a serious or painful allergic reaction to a widespread area. Before applying the grapeseed oil, splash your face with warm water and blot dry with a washcloth. Apply about ½ teaspoon of grapeseed oil into the palm of your hand. Gently rub and distribute the oil between both hands, particularly on your fingertips. After you have coated your fingertips with the grapeseed oil, gently rub the oil onto your skin. Make circular motions with your fingertips, and apply to your cheeks, forehead, chin, and nose. Be sure to rub the oil onto your skin for about 2 minutes. The oil and the circular motions will help break up dirt, oil, and residue. Simply washing your face with water may not remove the oil completely. To wipe away all the oil, rinse your washcloth with warm water and wring out the excess water. Gently sweep the damp washcloth over your entire face to lift away the grapeseed oil. To lock in moisture, use a drop or two of the grapeseed oil on freshly cleansed skin. After you have completely removed the oil that helped lift the dirt and residue from your skin, apply a few fresh drops onto your fingertips. Sweep the oil over your face and allow it to soak into your skin. Do not remove. Cleanse your skin with grapeseed oil a few times each week. As you begin to establish your cleansing routine, you may wish to cleanse with oil each evening. You may notice more oil production during the first few days, but this will balance as your skin adjusts to the new routine.

Article in English: Apply a small, quarter-sized amount of shampoo to your palms and work it into a lather. Then, apply the shampoo to your scalp and massage vigorously with your fingertips. Then, work the lather through your hair and rinse. Rinse hair thoroughly so no shampoo is left behind. Washing your hair should take about five minutes. Even though greasy hair looks and feels dirty, washing your hair every day will make your hair more greasy because shampoo strips hair of its nutrients and natural oils, causing your scalp to produce even more oil. Wash your hair every 2-3 days at the very most. This gives your hair enough time to replace the natural oils, so you're not producing an excess. If you usually shampoo your hair every day, it may take a few months for your scalp to stop overproducing oil after you change your shampoo habits. Use dry shampoo on the days you don't wash your scalp to help absorb excess oil as you transition. In addition to not shampooing every day, use a high-quality, gentle cleansing shampoo. Shampoos that are aggressive tend to irritate hair follicles, causing the scalp to produce more oil.  Common irritants include sulfates like sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium laureth sulfate, as well as silicones like dimethicone and cyclomethicone. You can find silicone and sulfate-free hair products in most drug stores, as well as specialty beauty and hair-care stores. Shampoos with salicylic acid, selenium sulfide, or ketoconazole are good for greasy hair. Salicylic acid helps reduce oil on the scalp. Oily hair does not need to be conditioned often. Condition every other time you wash or just once a week. Only use conditioner on the tips of your hair instead of the roots, where grease gathers more easily. Apply it by squeezing your conditioner into your palms and scrunching it into the ends of your hair. The best dry shampoos for greasy hair come in a powder form. Try not to use liquid dry shampoos. Massage the dry shampoo powder in your hair and on your scalp between washes to soak up grease and leave hair...

Article in English: Apply a strong antiperspirant to your armpits before leaving the house in the morning. This suggestion may seem obvious, but the fact is that most body odor problems originate in the underarm region. Try to get in the habit of using antiperspirant every day to safeguard yourself from surprise bursts of B.O.  Antiperspirant and deodorant are not the same thing. Deodorants help combat underarm odor but don’t protect as well against sweat, which is the leading cause of body odor. Clinical strength deodorants are also an option that can help keep persistent odor under control. Reapply antiperspirant throughout the day as needed to stay one step ahead of frightful fragrances. Bad breath is a prime contributor to overall body odor. For this reason, it’s important to brush your teeth at least once a day (twice is preferred), and also get on a consistent regimen of flossing and using antiseptic mouthwash. The cleaner your mouth is, the less you’ll have to worry about scaring others away when you get up close and personal.  Brush for around two minutes, hitting all of the teeth’s major surfaces and the top of the tongue. In addition to regular brushing, you should schedule an appointment twice a year to have your teeth cleaned by a dentist. Do a load of laundry a minimum of once a week, or more if you’re physically active or have a downsized wardrobe. In most cases, it’s best not to wear the same item of clothing more than one day in a row. Because your clothing soaks up all the odor-causing substances that your body puts off, they can quickly grow rank.  Undergarments like bras, socks and underwear need more frequent attention because they’re worn directly against pungent problem areas. Add a scoop of baking soda to the washing machine for extra stench and stain-fighting power. As the old saying goes, you are what you eat. Choose foods that are rich in fiber and essential vitamins and minerals. Avoid excess sweets and oily or aromatic foods—such as garlic, onions and curry—as these contain chemical compounds that are...

Either of these ointments, which you can get at your local drugstore, may ease the itching of your flea bite. Hydrocortisone is a mild steroid cream, while calamine lotion uses ferric oxide to treat mild itchiness. Both are available over-the-counter (OTC) and are safe to use in quantities directed by the manufacturer. Sometimes, flea bites itch so severely that you need to take an oral antihistamine. Your doctor or pharmacist can provide suggestions for OTC or prescription solutions. Some antihistamines that you might consider include:  Diphenhydramine and other oral antihistamines. Diphenhydramine is OTC and provides quick relief for most itching, but often makes users drowsy. Look for the non-drowsy version.  Tripelennamin hydrochloride is another OTC drug, and similar to Diphenhydramine. Tripelennamin hydrochloride is taken orally. Hydroxyzine is prescription only. If your itching becomes severe and you need relief that OTC antihistamines can't give you, ask your doctor about Hydroxyzine, which works by reducing the natural histamines in the body. Topical antihistamines. Keep the area clean and apply either hydrocortisone or calamine lotion to ease itching and decrease irritation of the fleabite. It can damage the skin and allow infection to occur. Use an over the counter itch relief product like Calamine lotion or one containing hydrocortisone to relieve the itching instead.

Article in English: Apply deodorant every morning to eliminate underarm odors. You can either buy a stick of deodorant or a can of aerosol deodorant. Additionally, choose an antiperspirant deodorant to help control excessive sweating. Some people believe that deodorant can cause cancer. However, researchers haven’t found any evidence supporting this claim. Wear socks with your shoes whenever possible to reduce the buildup of sweat and bacteria. If you can’t wear socks with your shoes, clean your feet before wearing them. If your shoes still stink, dust the inside of the shoes with baking soda and let them sit overnight. This will help kill the bacteria that causes bad smells. If your feet smell bad even if you haven’t been wearing shoes, you may have a foot fungus. Talk to your doctor for a diagnosis and to learn about treatment methods. If you wear dirty clothes, you won’t smell clean.  In fact, sometimes an item of clothing will smell clean to you but dirty to other people. Play it safe and only wear clean clothing. When washing your clothes, follow the washing instructions on the tag.  Wash underwear, shirts, socks, and swimsuits after wearing them once. Wash bras and outer clothing such as sweaters or dress shirts every 2-3 wears. Wash jeans and pants every 3-4 wears. If you sweat a lot in your clothing, wash it after wearing it.

Article in English: Apply dry cleaning solvent to a clean cloth or paper towel, and press it against a small, hidden area of your carpeting. After several minutes, take a damp cloth and blot out the solvent. Allow test area to dry, and make sure the solvent did not leave a stain or remove dye from the carpeting. Using a cloth or paper towels, press the solvent into the stained carpeting, moving from the outer edges to the middle of the stain. Press hard enough for the solvent to penetrate deep into the carpet fibers. Then allow the stain area to dry. Try using a fan or dehumidifier in the room to speed the drying process. If traces are found, repeat the process described above. You may need to clean the area multiple times before the stain disappears completely. This is normal with oil stains because the oil may seep up through the carpet fibers after the initial cleaning.

Проверьте растворитель для химчистки на малозаметном участке ковра перед тем, как наносить его на область пятна. Нанесите растворитель для химчистки на масляное пятно. Подождите 5 минут, после чего возьмите влажную тканевую или бумажную салфетку и удалите растворитель для химчистки с ковра. Оцените результат.


Article in English: Apply layers of paper towels as soon as you discover the urine stain. Stand or walk on the paper towels to increase absorbency. Try to soak up as much as possible before moving on. Mix a solution of one part white vinegar to one part water. Transfer the mixed ingredients into a spray container or cleaning bucket. Spray or pour the solution onto the area. If the area is carpeted, apply a generous amount of cleaning mixture. You want to use enough solution to soak into all areas of the urine stain. You must be careful not to let the solution sink into the subflooring. Wait 10 minutes. Return and blot the area again with paper towels. You can also blot with washcloths, but use only old ones, as the ammonia might be difficult to remove. Let the area dry until it is slightly damp. Sprinkle the area with baking soda. Let the baking soda sit for 15 minutes. Baking soda is a mild alkali that dissolves dirt and grease with water effectively. Put a laundry bucket over the area while the baking soda is cleaning the area. This will prevent your pet or any small children from messing with the area. You should have removed the majority of the urine, which causes the release of ammonia. If the odor still smells, then you will need to treat the area again or use a commercial product. The key to a commercial product is to make sure it removes the smell. Cats, especially, will urinate in the same location if they smell their urine. Buy a product that caters to your pet specifically, instead of buying an "all pets" stain remover. Try to use natural products that won't be damaging to your pet or yourself. Apply the cleaner according to package's directions. Repeat as necessary. Read the safety measures to ensure the product doesn’t contain hazardous materials.

Article in English: Apply silicone caulk to any cracks around your windows and doors or along the foundation of your home.  Most spiders will sneak into a building through these various cracks and unintended openings. Sealing the cracks will prevent the spiders from coming in. You can purchase caulk from a hardware store. Follow the instructions provided on the label to prepare and apply the caulk correctly. When you apply the caulk, make sure that the cracks are completely filled and covered. These are the other types of passageways spiders use to invade your home.  Weather stripping and door sweeps will seal the gaps left at the bottom and sides of your doors and windows. Door sweeps are especially important because you cannot use caulk to cover the crack at the bottom of the doorway, making a properly fit door sweep your only means of cutting that path off from spiders.  A tight-fitting screen is also an essential tool. Spiders can slip in through the gaps left by loose screens, and so can many insects spiders like to feed on. Install screens over your windows and vents. Repair any holes in your screens as soon as you spot them. If you spot a hole in your screen, repair it or replace the screen. Otherwise, spiders and insects may find their way into your home through that hole. Spiders gravitated toward clutter inside a building as readily as they do outside a building.  Do not let piles of clothing, papers, towels, linens, or shoes sit on the floor. If you do leave a pile of clutter on the floor, shake out each piece of material as you clean the clutter up to shake off any unwelcome spiders. Spare clothing, holiday decorations, extra linens, and other objects that belong in long-term storage should be stored in sealed containers to prevent spiders from sneaking in.  Do not use cardboard boxes. If you must rely on cardboard boxes, however, cover all exposed openings with packing tape. Good storage methods are especially important for items stored in a dark basement or attic. Consider storing outdoor tools and sports equipment...

Article in English: Apply the cream to a small area of skin and wait for a few minutes. If your skin has an adverse reaction, such as itching and redness, try a different brand of depilatory cream. If no such reaction occurs, continue. Depilatory creams can be found at most drug stores and beauty product stores. Your stomach needs to free of oils and lotion before you start. Dry your stomach off after washing. Make sure your stomach is free of cuts before continuing. Apply generously and evenly across the whole affected area of your stomach. Use the spatula provided with the cream to dab the cream into the skin. Wait the recommended amount of time before continuing. Typically it takes about 15 minutes for the cream to do its job, but it varies depending on the type of cream you use. Use the spatula provided with the cream to remove the cream. Scrape it off in downwards motions. Rinse your stomach with warm water to remove the rest of the cream, then dry off with a towel.

Article in English: Apply the spray to your socks, ankles and the cuffs of your pants every single day to prevent flea bites.  If you've treated your pet, the fleas will be killed on contact with its blood. However, you haven't been treated with flea preventative, so your blood will still make a tasty snack. Fleas only need a single blood meal to lay more eggs, so you want to deny them their food. After 30 days, you can probably stop worrying about applying the DEET mosquito repellent to your ankles. If you no longer see fleas jumping around, then you are definitely safe. However, if you still see visible fleas or have bites on your ankles, then continue spraying with mosquito spray. This cleaning should include carpeted surfaces as well as smooth surfaces.  Vacuum all carpets, rugs, and upholstery. Place one entire complete flea collar (chopped up) in the vacuum bag. Vacuuming not only sucks up fleas, eggs and larvae, but the vibrations from the vacuum cleaner also cause fleas to hatch from their cocoons. Since insecticides can't kill fleas in the pupa stage, getting as many of them to emerge as possible gives you a great chance of killing more fleas. Throw the vacuum bag away in an exterior garbage container after you're done. Follow this up with turning the vacuum over and spraying the roller head with a spray lysing agent Mop smooth floors. Use a cleaning agent like Pine-Sol or undiluted apple cider vinegar to cause the fleas to emerge from holes and cracks so that they are more exposed when you spray or fog your house. Read the instructions and make sure you have enough to completely bomb your entire square footage of every room. You need to make sure that the product kills flea eggs, so look for one of these active ingredients: methoprene, fenoxycarb or pyriproxyfen.  Spray your carpets, rugs, furniture, baseboards, along walls and on your pet's bedding. Make sure to follow the directions on the can. Don't miss door edges, corners, floors with cracks and underneath furniture and furniture cushions. Flea larvae love to hide...

Article in English: Apply the tea tree oil directly onto either a bacterial or a fungal infection. The tea tree is naturally anti-bacterial and can help to kill an infection. For example, tea tree oil has been shown to reduce athlete's foot infections in clinical studies. You should do this for 15 minutes every day. The apple cider vinegar can be warm or cold. Use whatever temperature is most comfortable for you. Apple cider vinegar has documented antimicrobial properties, likely at least in part due to its acidic nature. Vinegar in general has been used for hundreds of years for its anti-infection properties. Crush two to three cloves of peeled garlic and mix with either olive oil, castor oil, or manuka honey, which also has anti-microbial properties. Put onto the infection and cover with a bandage.  Change the garlic daily. Garlic has natural antibiotic properties that make it helpful for fighting skin infections, such as staph. the toe in Epsom salts daily. Add about ½ cup of Epsom salts to three cups of warm water. Let your toe soak in the solution for 15 minutes, or until the water gets too cold. The high salt content can kill bacteria and fungal infections. Take equal parts Listerine and warm water and soak the toe daily. Listerine can help a simple infection because it contains menthol, thymol, and eucalyptol, which are all derived from various natural antibiotic sources. If you have a toenail fungus infection, a soak of 50/50 Listerine and white vinegar can help eliminate the infection. If your infection does not improve within a few days of using home remedies or if it seems to be getting worse, then you will need to see a doctor for treatment. Do not continue using these treatments if they are not working.

Article in English: Apply the thinned paint to a piece of scrap wood or cardboard with either a paint sprayer or a paintbrush. Allow it to dry before adding a second coat. After adding the second coat and allowing it to dry, observe the results. Paint that is too thin tends to drip when applied. Paint that is too thick can achieve a texture like that of an orange peel. Paint that is the right consistency will dry smooth and not drip.  When using a sprayer, pour the paint through a strainer and into the reservoir. This will remove any debris that could clog the nozzle. Cap off the reservoir and grab the sprayer. Place the nozzle 8 inches away from the scrap wood or cardboard and spray.The paint should flow smoothly.  When using a brush, dip the tip into the paint. Spread the paint smoothly and evenly over the scrap piece of wood. Allow the first coat to dry before adding a second coat. Test your paint thoroughly before applying it to a large surface. If the latex paint is still too thick, measure out an additional half cup of water per gallon of paint. Incorporate the room temperature water in increments while mixing until you achieve the desired consistency. Repeat the funnel test to measure the paint’s viscosity. If you are not successfully thinning the paint with water, try adding a commercial thinning additive. These products are very expensive, so always try water first! Once you have thinned your latex paint, you can begin your project! If using a sprayer, pour the paint into the reservoir through a strainer. If using a brush, pour the paint into a paint tray. Apply the thinned latex paint smoothly and evenly. Remember, it is less expensive and time-consuming to properly thin latex paint than it is to remove improperly thinned latex paint and purchase more materials!

Article in English: Apply the warm pack 3 to 4 times per day or whenever you experience bloating. Test it with the back of your hand before placing it on your stomach to avoid burning yourself. Don’t place a warm pack directly onto your incision, as the skin around the surgical site is sensitive and prone to getting burned.  A warm pack can relieve pain and help your bowels return to normal. Purchase a microwavable warm pack at a pharmacy, and microwave it for 30 seconds or as directed. You could also use a clean washcloth. Moisten it, then microwave it for 30 seconds. Go for foods that are easy to digest until your bloating and gas pains improve. Protein sources can promote healing, but you should stick to poultry, whitefish, and other lean options. Additionally, follow any special dietary instructions you doctor gave you. Gas-producing foods include legumes (such as lentils and beans), broccoli, corn, and potatoes. Carbonated beverages can also worsen gas pain and bloating. If any other items upset your stomach, such as dairy or spicy food, avoid them as well. Drink 8 to 10 glasses of water, juice, or other non-caffeinated, non-alcoholic fluids throughout the day. Staying hydrated will help soften your stools and make it easier to pass gas and go to the bathroom. It’ll also help your surgical site heal. Medications that contain simethicone can help ease gas pain, especially if you’ve had a hysterectomy or C-section. Check with your doctor before taking any medicine after surgery. Take medication according to their instructions or follow the directions on the label.

Article in English: Apply this to your roots only; work it in and let it sit for a minute. Start by making a circle on the top of your head in the area you'd wear a crown. Focus on the back of this circle to begin with. Next, fill in the circle. This is where your part will be; grease here affects the way your hair looks. Trace while still scrubbing with your fingertips around the bottom edge of the circle. Keep making scrubbing circles underneath each one, drawing lines in circles around your head. Lastly, scrub the back of your skull and your temples/sideburns. This will result in less grease and more growth. After doing this, your scalp will feel alive. Many women swear their hair grows faster after a visit to the salon — it does, and this massage method is why. (I keep two plastic 12-ounce cups in my shower and just mix when I get in.) After you rinse the baking soda out, pour the apple cider vinegar over the ends of your hair, let it sit for a minute and then rinse it out. That's all there is to it!

Article in English: Apply tile mastic or quick-set mortar to the area around the outlet, being careful not to get any into the electrical box. Push the cut tiles firmly into place. Use appropriately sized tile spacers to keep consistent space between the tiles as they set. You have to finish grouting the space between the tiles before you can tighten down the electrical outlet in the box. You may have to hold the outlet in place as you tighten to stop it from twisting and misaligning with the faceplate. Once the tiles are installed and grouted, replace the outlet cover. The outlet cover should hide all the cut edges of your tiles.

Article in English: Apply your favorite deep treatment hair mask to wet hair. For example, you might rub mashed avocados or bananas, honey, or mayonnaise into your hair to add moisture. Once your hair is covered in the hair mask, put on a shower cap and let the treatment sit for 30 minutes. Rinse out the hair mask with warm water. If you're short on time, you can skip the deep treatment, but your hair won't get as much moisture. Fill a plastic squeeze bottle with liquid coconut oil. Squirt the coconut oil directly onto your scalp. Use your fingertips to massage the oil into your scalp and the hair closest to your scalp. This will immediately add moisture to the hair. If you're worried about squirting too much oil onto your scalp, you can squirt the oil onto your fingertips instead. Run your fingers through your hair to moisturize the hair and scalp. Fill a spray bottle with fresh water and spray all over your hair until it's wet. Apply your favorite leave-in conditioner. To do so, squirt the conditioner on your hands. Rub the leave-in conditioner closer to your scalp and work in through your hair. Ensure that you rub the leave-in conditioner to the very tips of your hair. Spraying your hair with water adds instant moisture to your hair and makes it easier to detangle. Portion your hair into 4 or 5 parts using hair clips. You should have one section of hair near the front of your head and 3 or 4 sections of hair near the back of your head. Moisturize each section of hair by rubbing olive oil through the hair and scalp. If you don't want to use olive oil, you could use another preferred oil or conditioner. For example, consider using castor oil, almond oil, jojoba oil, or shea butter.

Article in English: Apply your prepared paste to a small section at the back of the shoe using a sponge brush or other small paintbrush.  Only apply enough paste to cover enough shoe for one or two small patches of paper. The paste needs to be fresh and very wet when you adhere the paper, and if you apply too much at once, it may start drying out before you can work with it. You can technically start working anywhere on the shoe, but typically, it is easiest if you start toward the back (heel) of the shoe along the inside edge. Place one patch of your desired paper over the paste on the shoe.  Use your fingers to apply gentle pressure to the paper so that it adheres securely. If the paper does not adhere well, you may need to coat the back of the patch with additional paste before trying again. While the paste is still wet, use your fingers to smooth away any wrinkles or creases you see in the applied patch. If the paste has already begun drying or if you are otherwise unable to smooth away the wrinkles with your fingers, brush over the patch with a damp sponge to help smooth it out more thoroughly. Before proceeding, with the next patch of paper, apply another smooth coat of paste over the patch you just put on.  Don't be afraid of applying too much. The paper should be thoroughly soaked with paste if you really want it to remain in place. This coat of paste can also extend over onto the next section of the shoe you plan to cover. Work your way around the rest of the shoe in the same manner, applying the paper one patch at a time until the entire surface is covered.  Each patch of paper should slightly overlap the one before it. Overlapping the patches reduces the amount of blank space and gives the final piece more strength.  If you make a mistake, you'll only have a few seconds to remove the patch before the paste starts setting. After this period of time passes, it is better to cover the patch with a new one instead of trying to rip it off. You can decoupage the heel of your shoe, if desired, but do not bother covering the...

Article in English: Applying a heating pad to your pelvis or taking a hot bath can help relax your pelvic muscles and dilate your blood vessels, which can stimulate blood flow and thus speed up your period. Consider this a reason to draw yourself a hot bath and take a while to soak. Your cramps will feel better and your period may run its course faster – and you get some much needed me-time, too. Exercising during your period can help alleviate PMS symptoms like bloating, fatigue, and moodiness. Many people find that getting regular physical exercise can also help manage the heaviness and duration of their periods in the long run. In fact, overexercising, or exercising more than your body is used to, can completely change your normal period schedule. Gymnasts and the like often don't get their periods at all because they work out so much. While you shouldn't work out so much your body gets stunted, exercising regularly does have many benefits. Acupuncture is among the oldest healing practices in the world, and is used to treat a wide array of physical ailments using pressure points rather than medicine. Getting acupuncture regularly can help regulate the menstrual cycle and alleviate mood swings, menstrual cramps, and other PMS symptoms. It’s great for stress, too. However, some believe that it can stop your cycle entirely, so be sure to talk to your doctor before you begin taking this route. New science says that orgasms can limit the duration of your period. How? Orgasms cause muscle spasms that in turn cause the blood from your uterus to flow out faster. If you can get over how it might be a little icky, it's worth a shot.  Most people have a higher sex drive during their periods, anyway. Wait till the 3rd day or so (or whenever your period is a bit lighter), lay down some towels, and stick to the missionary position. You may be surprised how much you like it. Though it's less likely, you can get pregnant during your period. Play it safe and use protection.

Article in English: Applying a protective finish to your fence will help to keep it looking good for longer.  A paint finish will allow you to match your fence to the color of your home or other outdoor furniture. The wood should be completely dry before you paint it and coated in primer. Make sure to use an exterior latex paint.     Stains add a bit of life and color to the fence, while also preserving the natural look of the wood and allowing the grain to show through.     A waterproof finish or repellent is necessary for woods that don't withstand moisture very well and are prone to decay. Such woods include spruce, poplar, birch and red oak.

Article in English: Applying a tourniquet increases the amount of blood in the vein to make them stand out more. The tourniquet should not be so tight that it cuts off the circulation.  The tourniquet should be put on the arm about four inches above the vein. A blood pressure cuff that is inflated to 40–60 mm Hg also works well. Warmth will make the patient's veins dilate and expand, making them easier to see. Contrary to popular culture, you should palpate the arm, rather than slapping it. Slapping the skin is poor technique that may result in a hematoma. Use your index finger to look for a vein, which feels soft and spongy. Don't use your thumb, as it contains its own pulse.  The warm pack or water bottle should be put on the area before it is disinfected. Nothing more should touch the area after it is disinfected. Do not apply the warm pack or water bottle directly to the skin. Wrap it in a thin towel to prevent burns. If it hurts, it is too hot. Many people have needle phobias and nervousness and apprehension is a normal response. Stress not only makes the veins hard to hit, but it could also negatively affect the test results (particularly for biochemistry panels). Reassure your patient and explain that the pain is very brief and minor.  Tell your patient to try visualization and deep breathing. Observe your patient and have them lie down on their back if you think they might faint. This will improve the blood flow to their head. It also reduces their chances of falling and injuring themselves if they do pass out.

Article in English: Applying castor oil to hair seems like it might be simple, but there are a few things you can do to make it more effective and easier to apply. Here is a list of what you will need:  Castor oil Other oil (argan, avocado, coconut, jojoba, sweet almond, etc.) Hot water Bowl Jar Shower cap Towel Old shirt (recommended) Castor oil is fairly thick. Mixing it with another oil can make it a little easier to apply. Try using one part castor oil and one part of another oil, such as argan, avocado, coconut, jojoba, or sweet almond. All of these oils are great for hair. You can also try the following combination:  3 tablespoons (44 ml) castor oil 1 tablespoon (15 ml) jojoba oil 1 tablespoon (15 ml) coconut oil Castor oil can smell bad. If this bothers you, try adding in two to three drops of a fresh-smelling essential oil, such as rosemary, peppermint, or tea tree. Close the lid tightly, and shake the jar for a few minutes. When you are done, take the lid off. You can do a “hot oil treatment” with castor oil by warming it in hot water before use. Warming the oil will make it more effective and easier to work with. Make sure that the bowl you choose is large enough for the jar of castor oil to fit inside. Do not attempt to warm the oil in the microwave. Make sure that the water level is at the same level as the oil. Also, make sure that the no water gets inside the jar, or the oil will get wet. This will make it easier for you to dip your fingers into when you go to apply it.  Consider pouring the oil into a small bottle with an eye dropper. This way, you can use the eye dropper to just drip the oil to your scalp. If you don’t have an eye dropper, you can use a bottle with a nozzle. You can get empty applicator bottles from most beauty supply stores.
