Article in English: As much as is possible, try to let the gift be a surprise for the other person. A gift that someone is not expecting or does not know about can make them feel incredibly special. If you are taking them for a nice dinner, for example, you could pretend to be going to a work function until you get there. Take what you’ve learned about her and get something special. It doesn’t have to be expensive or crazy, just something you know she likes to let her know you’re thinking about her. If she’s having a tough day and seems stressed, giving her something simple like her favorite candy will make her feel special and ease her mind. Examples of some good gifts include:  A favorite food or drink. This one is super easy but will still make the person feel loved. Something from your friend's favorite sports team. A team jersey, a t-shirt, or even tickets to a game are just a few good places to start. A collectible item. Lots of people collect things like coffee mugs, cards, and plenty of other objects. Adding something to your friend's collection is a perfect way to show you care. Another option is to make something for her. Have her over and cook her favorite meal for her, or draw her a picture of her. Use your talents to create something that shows you care about her. Giving a compliment can be more difficult than a physical gift, but be an even better gesture to show her she's special. The most important ideas for giving a good compliment are:  Be genuine. Think about things your friend is proud of and reinforce that idea. A genuine complement  is more meaningful and is way easier to deliver. Pay attention. If your friend is trying something new, like a new outfit or accessory, that is a great opportunity to say something nice. Complement the person's personality. If your friend does something nice for you, thank them and use an extra sentence or two to let them know you think they're a genuinely kind person. Make sure to smile while you deliver your compliment. Maybe there’s a place in the woods that she used to go...

Article in English: As much as you want to gain the approval of a girl, altering your personality to do so isn’t the way to go! Even if it works in the short-term, you’ll feel fake and happy, and chances are she’ll eventually find out who you really are. Know who you are. Own up to your thoughts and feelings in life. Being genuine and self-assured is appealing to girls and will make you feel good about yourself, too.  Avoid becoming overly generous or aggressive in an attempt to win her over. This can come across as fake or even offensive--not the way you want to portray yourself!  Put less attention into pleasing girls, too. Appreciate your flaws and don’t let them distract you. If you like yourself and become comfortable with who you are, then you will be more comfortable around other people. And even if things don't go well, it won't matter as much! Only you can make yourself happy. If you like yourself, that's the most important thing. Maintaining proper hygiene makes you look and feel better. Take a shower in the morning. Wash your hair. Put on deodorant and clean clothes before you go outside. When you’re around girls, the last thing you want to worry about is how you smell! Keep yourself clean to make sure it’s never a problem. You may choose to put a little perfume or cologne on your neck and shoulders. If you do, use it sparingly! You don’t want to overwhelm the people around you. If possible, go out and find some clothes that are right for you. They don’t have to be expensive, but they should fit well and feel comfortable on you. Besides making you look good, clothes that you like wearing make you feel more confident and able to focus on girls instead of your appearance.  Try observing those around you for ideas on what’s fashionable, but remember that a good outfit is one that reflects your own unique style. Ask store employees for feedback. Ask politely and they’ll be happy to guide you to a proper fit. You can have fun with girls doing what they want to do, but remember to take time out for yourself and continue to...

Article in English: As nausea can be responsible for the low appetite that leads to weight loss in patients, managing nausea can help. Talk to your doctor about the best means to cope.  There are a variety of anti-nausea medication your doctor can prescribe. Your doctor will select a medication for you based on your medical history and what stage of treatment you're undergoing.  Your doctor will probably also suggest a number of lifestyle changes. Drinking more fluids, avoiding unpleasant smells, using relaxation techniques, and getting comfortable can all help reduce nausea. Ask your doctor for a referral to a dietitian. A dietitian's job is to provide you with personal advice about your eating habits to help you gain weight. A sit down session with a dietitian can help you figure out ways to combat weight loss and gain weight while undergoing treatment. Cancer support groups are present in many hospitals, churches, and community centers. You can also find support groups online if one is not available in your area. You can talk to other cancer sufferers about their issues with weight gain and ask what worked for them in regards to putting weight back on.

Article in English: As noted above, Capricorns tend to be traditional, business-minded, somewhat conservative people. This can lead them to seem standoffish or even cold at first. Understand that, at the heart of every Capricorn, there's a person who's capable of deep emotion and compassion. While the average Capricorn may not be as open about her emotions as, for instance, the average Leo, she is still plenty capable of forming strong emotional bonds, given enough time. Capricorns pride themselves on not relying very heavily on others to achieve their goals. Since your Capricorn partner is likely to be an independent, driven soul, don't drag her down by constantly bombarding her with pleas for attention and affection. Instead, cherish the tender moments you do share, as these are sure to be genuine and unforced. In addition, be ready and willing to periodically entertain yourself — Capricorns won't die if they don't get to see you for a single day, so you shouldn't either.  Behaviors you'll want to avoid: Calling or texting many times per day, frequently asking for confirmations of her affection, acting jealously, attempting to alter her schedule. Few things are less attractive to a Capricorn than someone who refuses to at least try to solve their own problems. Don't let your Capricorn lover ever start to see you as a bum. Try to maintain ambitious professional goals, even if you can't achieve all of them. Similarly, don't take your relationship for granted — always show your partner that she's important to you. Make a sincere effort to put in hard work in your professional and personal life and she will value you for your efforts. Sometimes, life deals difficult hands that force us to become less active than we previously were. For instance, illnesses, family problems, and unexpected layoffs may temporarily force you to take a less active role in achieving your goals. In these cases, don't give in to feelings of inadequacy — a smart Capricorn woman will be able to tell the difference between someone who won't work hard for...

Article in English: As noted above, all of the tiny differences between Coke and Pepsi are easier (though not exactly easy) to notice when you can compare both drinks (rather than tasting one and trying to guess what it is). To stand a better chance of telling Coke and Pepsi apart, have both drinks available and ready to drink so you can try one and then immediately try the other. If you're doing this for entertainment purposes, have a friend blindfold you and scramble the drink containers so you're not sure which is which. If you're training to be able to tell the drinks apart in the future, feel free to leave the blindfold off. Your first action should be to take only a small sip of each soda. While everyone's sense of taste will differ, this test isn't quite as random as you may think. See below: Statistically, more people tend to prefer the taste of Pepsi after just one sip. Its sharper, sweeter taste makes it create a stronger impression. It can even caused increased stimulation in the part of the brain responsible for judging flavors. Now, continue to drink both sodas until you run out or you start to feel full. Take note of which soda you were more comfortable drinking a large amount of. If your preference switched (that is, you preferred one soda for the sip test but the other once you drank more of each), you're like most people. See below:  Statistically, more people tend to prefer Coke when drinking an entire can or more. Its smoother, less sweet flavor makes it easier to drink large quantities of it.  Thus, if you liked one soda better after just a sip but liked the other one better once you drank more, the first one was probably Pepsi and the second was probably Coke.

Article in English: As noted above, if the numerator and denominator of an expression share factors, these factors can be removed from the fraction entirely. Sometimes this will require factoring the numerator, denominator, or both (as was the case in the example problem above) while other times the shared factors are immediately apparent. Note that it is also possible to divide the numerator terms by the expression in the denominator individually to obtain a simplified expression. Let's tackle an example that doesn't necessarily require drawn-out factoring. For the fraction (5x2 + 10x + 20)/10, we may want to divide every term in the numerator by the 10 in the denominator to simplify, even though the "5" coefficient in 5x2 isn't bigger than 10 and thus can't have 10 as a factor. Doing so gets us ((5x2)/10) + x + 2. If we like, we may want to rewrite the first term as (1/2)x2 to get (1/2)x2 + x + 2. Expressions under a square root sign are called radical expressions. These can be simplified by identifying square factors (factors that are themselves squares of an integer) and performing the square root operation on these separately to remove them from under the square root sign. Let's tackle a simple example - √(90). If we think of the number 90 as the product of two of its factors, 9 and 10, we can take the square root of 9 to give the whole number 3 and remove this from the radical. In other words:  √(90) √(9 × 10) (√(9) × √(10)) 3 × √(10) 3√(10) Some algebraic expressions require multiplying or dividing exponential terms. Rather than computing each exponential term and multiplying or dividing manually, simply add exponents when multiplying and subtract when dividing to save time. This concept can also be used to simplify variable expressions.  For example, let's consider the expression 6x3 × 8x4 + (x17/x15). In each occasion where it's necessary to multiply or divide by exponents, we'll subtract or add the exponents, respectively, to quickly find a simplified term. See below:  6x3 × 8x4 + (x17/x15) (6 × 8)x3 + 4 + (x17 - 15)...

Article in English: As noted above, one common cause of infection following an ear piercing is the introduction of bacteria into the piercing via the wearer's hands. Though it's easy to absent-mindedly fool with your earrings while you're bored or daydreaming, try to avoid this type of behavior, especially if your hands haven't been recently washed. Doing so lessens the likelihood that you'll accidentally re-infect your piercing. If you're prone to piercing infections, you may want continue performing the cleaning routine above, albeit less frequently. When you're able to, clean the posts of your earrings and the area around each piercing with an antiseptic fluid before inserting your earrings to kill any bacteria that may be introduced into the piercing. Believe it or not, one of the causes of ear piercing infection is earrings worn too tightly! If the earring's clasp is applied too tightly, it can cut off the flow of air to the piercing, which, over time, can increase the risk of infection. To prevent this, simply wear your earrings loosely so that air can reach both sides of the piercing. For the same reason as above, you'll want to periodically give your piercings a chance to "rest" from wearing your earrings. Once the piercings have healed (for piercings in the lobe, this is usually about six weeks), take your earrings out every night before you sleep. Doing so ensures that air is able to reach your piercing, reducing the risk of infection. Certain types of metal used for earrings can irritate the skin or cause an allergic reaction in the skin. These problems can develop into full-blown infections if not addressed. For most people, irritation can be avoided by wearing earrings with posts made from neutral metals like 14-karat gold and stainless steel, which are unlikely to cause problems. Avoid earrings made from nickel, which are notorious for causing allergic reactions.

Article in English: As noted above, the best documentaries tell stories that are just as compelling as those you might find in an ordinary movie. This storytelling approach can be used to great effect regardless of the subject of your documentary. The way you write, shoot, and edit your film will affect the way your audience sees your "characters" and reacts to your "plot". Use your movie's narrative to prove your point to your audience. Try asking yourself the following questions as you write and plan your documentary to ensure your film tells the story you want to tell:  "How do I want my audience to feel about the people and events I'm portraying?" "What sort of message am I trying to convey with each scene?" "What's the best way to order my scenes to get my desired message across?" "How can I use the sounds and visuals of my movie to make my point?" Ideally, your documentary should inspire your audience to act or feel differently than they did before they watched it. Even relatively light-hearted documentaries can benefit from taking this sort of persuasive approach, so never lose sight of the sort of reaction you're trying to create in your audience. For some documentaries, like those that tackle controversial social issues, the sort of persuasion you're trying to go for is usually obvious. For others, it may be a little more subtle. For instance, if we're writing a documentary about a strange subculture of people who like to get together and pretend to be unicorns, we might set the goal for ourselves of convincing the audience that even though the hobby these people share is very strange, it still gives them a valuable sense of community that they may not find elsewhere. When you get the chance, go for the audience's heart! Proving your point with logic is, of course, highly desirable. However, not every member of the audience will be receptive to pure, unemotional logic. Even the members of your audience who do agree with your film's logic can be further persuaded if they get a serious emotional reaction from the film....

Article in English: As noted above, when you use frozen berries in baking recipes, you'll almost never want to thaw them before adding them to the recipe. Doing this creates extra moisture in the recipe and can lead to a final product that's mushy or watery. Some people find that thawing their berries about halfway in the microwave before baking produces great-tasting results without adding too much moisture. If you want to try this, note that the exact amount of time you'll need to keep your berries in the microwave for will vary based on the number of berries you have and the power of your microwave. Sometimes, when using frozen berries in baking recipes, the berries can "bleed", producing discolorations throughout the batter. Though this won't effect their taste, it can make the finished products a little less appealing to look at. To minimize the effects of bleeding, try gently rolling your frozen berries in flower before adding them to your baking recipe. This helps contain the berries' moisture, minimizing bleeding. There are some instances where you'll want to thaw your berries before using them in your recipe. Usually, these are cases where the extra moisture that comes from thawing is a benefit to the dish, like blackberry sauces and toppings for ice cream, shortcake, and so on. To quickly thaw blackberries, place them in an airtight plastic bag (or keep them in their original freezer bag) and submerge them in cold water for about 10-15 minutes.  To keep the bag of blackberries from floating and thawing unevenly, you may want to weigh it down with a heavy dish or bowl. Another situation in which you'll want to thaw your blackberries is if you intend to eat them raw. Though frozen berries make a great summertime treat, sometimes there's nothing like ordinary berries. For raw berries, you may want to use the quick thawing method above, or simply leave them on the kitchen counter overnight. Dumping your berries in a container of cool, clean water after thawing them to wash away any frost or debris leftover from freezing....

Article in English: As noted earlier, the taste of the cantaloupe will not change when you ripen it off the vine since its flesh does not contain starches capable of converting to sugars. The texture, color, and juiciness of the fruit can improve, though, so this process is still beneficial if you have a freshly harvested mature melon or one that is only slightly unripe. Use a brown paper bag that is large enough to fit the cantaloupe with a little extra room. The fruit should not be squeezed into the bag too tightly. Ideally, you should leave a little room for airflow inside the bag.  Make sure that you close the top of the bag when you are ready to let the melon begin ripening. The closed paper bag traps the ethylene gas produced by the cantaloupe as it ripens. The production of ethylene gas increases in the presence of additional ethylene gas, so keeping the gas concentrated within the space of the bag speeds up the ripening process. You need to use a paper bag instead of a plastic one. Paper bags are porous, so carbon dioxide can escape and oxygen can enter. Without at least this much airflow, the cantaloupe can begin to ferment. If you place a ripe banana or ripe apple in the bag, even more ethylene gas will be produced inside the space of the bag, and the ripening process will speed up even more. Bananas and apples produce notably high amounts of ethylene gas once they ripen, making them better options than most other fruits. Usually, the process will only take about two days, if not quicker.  Make sure that the place you store the melon is neither excessively cold or excessively hot. You should also avoid areas that are heavy in moisture or particularly drafty. Check on the progress of the cantaloupe throughout the process to make sure that it has not ripened early.

Article in English: As noted earlier, there can be any number of reasons why your boyfriend might be ignoring you. However, it's possible that he isn't answering because he doesn't think that the things you say are important; he sees your nattering as idle chatter, stuff that doesn't earn a reply or lead to a discussion. Learn to talk to him on his level, and he'll be interested in no time; or, leave the celebrity gossip and hair and nails stuff for the girls.  Talk to him about his passions. Maybe it's sports; maybe it's racing, maybe it's chemistry. It could be anything. Talk about what he likes to do and be excited about his passions. Every boy has a passion; you just have to find it. Ask him questions about the things he likes. Ask him why he likes what he likes. Ask him to explain his favorite hobby, and how he first got interested in it. If you're excited about something he's excited about, he won't be able to ignore you. Don't interrupt him when he's on a roll. When he's all excited about something, let him keep talking. Don't interrupt when he's got momentum. Tell him that you want to go on a date, and hopefully, he'll get the hint that you want him to set it up. If he doesn't get the hint, then you might have to figure it out yourself. It'll be a small price to pay if the date goes well.  Remember to do something that he enjoys. Shopping might be something you'd do all day long if you had the chance, but it's probably not his idea of a great date. See if you can go to an amusement park, the movies, a performance of a band he likes, etc. Dress your best, put a smile on your face, and wear your hair just the way he likes it. Sometimes, all a guy will need is a little wake-up call that his girl is the prettiest girl on the block. That should shake his funk up. Try to focus on good stuff during the date. Keep him engaged. Ask him questions. Be playful, warm-hearted, and optimistic. Give him a chance to make everything better, and remind him of why he's your boyfriend in the first place. If the date doesn't go well, tell him...

Article in English: As noted in the intro, there are hundreds of ways to make a BLT. This variation adds a little west coast flair to the standard BLT by adding some of the key ingredients in a California club sandwich. To start, you'll want to build a BLT as directed above until the point just before you'd normally be finished. In other words, cook some bacon, then spread a little mustard and mayonnaise on your bread, and finally add tomato, lettuce, and your cooked bacon to your sandwich. From here, we'll be adding a few extra touches to make our sandwich unique. For a true west coast classic, you may want to consider using sourdough, San Francisco's signature bread. Peel and cut a ripe Hass avocado into several thick french-fry sized slices. Lay these slices down above your final layer of bacon. The avocado gives the sandwich a creamy, satisfying quality not present in an ordinary BLT. The smooth texture of the avocado contrasts especially well with crunchy toast. Avocados are best when they're ripe. Ripe Hass avocados (the most common variety on the west coast) have dark green-to-black skin and a firm, yet yielding texture. The fruit should feel somewhat weighty and should have no obviously flattened or "smooshed" patches. If you're unsure whether an avocado is ripe, check under the brown stem remnant at the bottom of the avocado. If the skin underneath is bright yellow-green, you've picked a ripe avocado. If it's brown, your avocado may be bruised or overripe. After adding your avocado, you may want to squeeze a thin slice of lemon over your sandwich to produce a few drops of lemon juice. If you do so, be conservative — you want just a hint of lemony zest, not a BLT that makes you pucker. If done correctly, the BLT will have a slight tangy flavor which, for some, is absolutely mouthwatering when paired with the meatiness of the bacon and the smoothness of the avocado. Congratulations! Your California BLT is ready to eat. If you desire, you can add another layer of ingredients and an additional piece of bread to create a...

Article in English: As noted in the introduction, most stubbed toes are not serious injuries. Thus, a good indication that your stubbed toe is something more serious is if it does not seem to get better right away. Pain that doesn't get better in the same amount of time as an ordinary bruise is often a sign of an underlying problem that requires special treatment. Specifically, be on the lookout for the following signs:  Pain that doesn't lessen within an hour or two Pain that fully returns whenever pressure is put on the toe Swelling and/or inflammation that makes it difficult to walk or wear shoes for a few days Bruise-like discoloration that doesn't go away within a few days Especially-bad stubbed toes often result in a fracture (a break in the toe's bone). In this case, it's usually necessary to receive an X-ray, cast, or foot brace. Signs of a fracture include:  An audible "crack" or "pop" at the time of injury A toe that visually appears "bent," "kinked," or "crooked" Being unable to move the injured toe Prolonged pain, inflammation and bruising. Note that many broken toes don't prevent the injured person from walking. Being able to walk isn't a sign that a toe isn't broken. Another injury that's common from a stubbed toe is for blood to gather under the toenail. The pressure between the built-up blood and the nail can lead to prolonged inflammation and swelling, making recovery a long, uncomfortable process. In this case, a doctor can make a small hole in the nail, allowing the blood to drain and relieving the pressure. This procedure is called a trephination. A toe injury that causes part or all of the nail to detach from the nail bed can be extremely painful. While treatment at home may be possible in some cases, seeing a doctor will give you access to treatments for reducing pain, protecting the wound, and fighting infection that may not be available to you otherwise. In addition, if an injury is serious enough to break your nail, it is possible that it has also caused a fracture or another problem that requires a...

Article in English: As nubuck is created by sanding cowhide, it can withstand sanding for cleaning purposes. For the toughest stains, rub them vigorously with sandpaper or a block until the stain is removed. If you only need to clean a specific stain, only sand that particular spot. Make sure the block is clean before starting to sand the nubuck. If stains have settled in your nubuck surface, or it’s soiled all over, you’ll want to sand it completely. Run a block or sandpaper over its entire surface until the stains are removed. The nubuck will look practically brand new. As you sand the nubuck, you’ll be creating a fine dust composed of the leather and whatever grime it contained. Brush it away to keep your nubuck clear and clean.

Article in English: As of December 2012, Facebook made it impossible to keep your name from being searched on Facebook.This means that anyone who knows your first and last name could try to find you through Facebook's search engine. This will be harder for people to do if you change your name on Facebook. You can change it to something completely different, change it to your first and middle name instead of your first and last name, or even change it to a nickname that is known to only a few close friends. Here's how to do it:  Click the gear in the upper-right corner of any Facebook page. Select "Account Settings." Select the "General" option in the left-hand column. Click "Edit" on the far right next to the name setting. Type in your new name and save your changes. Someone may be able to search you on Facebook if he only knows your email address even if you've changed your name. To avoid this, you can change the email address associated with your account. You may have to open a new email address that you only use to get messages associated with your Facebook account for this purpose; you can also select an older email that you still use sometimes, such as an old school email. Here's how you do it:  Click the gear in the upper-right corner of any Facebook page. Select "Account Settings." Select the "General" option in the left-hand column. Click "Edit" on the far right next to the email setting. Change your email address and save your changes. Tell your friends that you're serious about limiting your Facebook exposure. Even if you've set your privacy settings to high, talking to your friends can prevent them from trying to tag you in photos or posts, even if they don't succeed.

Article in English: As part of an Ayurvedic diet, sometimes sage tea is used as a night time drink that aids sleep and relaxation. By helping you relax, the tea may help reduce the likelihood that you’ll have a wet dream. However, there’s no evidence that this treatment works, and it won’t affect everyone the same way. To make the tea, heat a pot of water until you see bubbles forming on the bottom of the pot. Then, pour the water over a bag of sage tea and steep for 2-3 minutes. Garlic contains allicin, which may help reduce how much blood flows to your genital area. This might help prevent erections so that you don’t have wet dreams. However, there’s no guarantee that this will work. To try it, eat 2-3 raw garlic cloves right before bed. Garlic has a strong taste, especially if you eat it raw. This might not be a great option if you don’t like the taste of garlic. Measure out about .5 cups (120 mL) of fenugreek juice and combine it with about .5 cups (120 mL) of celery juice. Then, add a spoonful of honey to taste. Drink the mixture in the evening before bed. It may help cool your body, but there’s no guarantee that it will help prevent wet dreams. This drink is thought to support a healthy reproductive system. Run a warm bath, then add a few drops of a relaxing essential oil. Great options include peppermint, lavender, sandalwood, or rose oil. Soak in the bath for at least 20-30 minutes to help you relax. Relaxing may help reduce your chances of having a wet dream. However, there’s no guarantee that this will work.

Article in English: As part of the YouTube partner program, you can enable advertising revenue on older videos you have already uploaded to your account. Locate the video you want to monetize and click the “$” next to the video. Then, click the “Monetize my video” box and choose the type of ads you’d like to appear on the video. You may monetize older videos that continue to get a lot of views or that you plan to repost or recap in a new video. With your partner verified account, you get access to features like live streaming, custom thumbnails, and in-video programming. Use these features to improve your YouTube channel and gain more subscribers. Play around with using at least one new feature a week in your videos. You can also try adding a new segment for your subscribers where you use a feature like live streaming to offer new content to viewers. Try not to select the same types of advertising for all your videos, as this can make your videos seem dull or unappealing to viewers. Instead, choose a variety of different advertising types for your videos. You may find you prefer certain types or that your subscribers respond best to a variety of ads. You may need to experiment with picking different advertising types for different videos. For example, a video that is full of bold visuals and words on screen may do best with an advertisement that appears before the video plays, rather than a banner ad that will distract the viewer. YouTube has recently announced it will offer a paid subscription service to partner channels that have 10,000 or more subscribers. This means you can earn $0.99-$4.99 a month from subscribers who sign up for the service. You can then offer paid subscribers special content or extra perks to encourage them to pay to subscribe every month. Keep in mind YouTube will still take a 55% cut your total earnings through this service, meaning you will earn about 45% of the profits.

Article in English: As part of your ADHD, there may be situations where you are impulsive and say or do the wrong thing. You don't give yourself enough time to think before you speak or act. For example, you tell your boss that an idea he has about sales projections is way off or you may buy yourself a new outfit when you really can't afford it, just because you had to have it.  Instead of saying the first thing that comes into your head, take a deep breath and think to yourself, "Let me think about this." before you answer someone. Also try putting your finger over your mouth in a thoughtful pose before you speak to give yourself time to think about your answer. You can also talk more slowly, which will give your brain time to process the information before you speak. Also, before you make a decision that involved money or other important things, think about what you are doing and if it is possible or wise to do it.  To help stop yourself from buying something when you're not sure you should, ask yourself a few questions. Before you reach for your wallet, ask yourself if you have the money to buy it, need to items you are about to buy, and if you would feel bad telling someone else that you are buying the items. This will help you think through all of your purchases before you make them. Adults with ADHD have trouble using nonverbal working memory, which means it is hard for them to draw on past experiences to guide their current actions. This means it is often hard for adults with ADHD to change the outcome of a situations they've experienced in the past because they always respond the same way. To help with this problem, take time to think about the decision you are about to make and think about all the times you've faced a similar problem in the past. To help do this, mentally visualize your past experiences by bringing up a video screen in your mind and play back the memory of the last time you had the same or a similar decision to make. Learn from your past mistakes and try to get to a different outcome. Many adults with...

Article in English: As part of your regular skin care routine, you should wash your face with a gentle cleanser twice each day: in the morning and before you go to bed. Remember that a gentle cleanser will be alcohol-free: alcohol can cause dryness and flaking. You should also wash your face after exercise to make sure that your sweat doesn't clog your pores or irritate your skin.  Always use lukewarm--not hot--water when you wash your face. Hot water can dry you out and cause flaking as well as irritation. Resist the urge to scrub. Use your fingertips and a gentle touch to wash your face. This will minimize irritation, dryness, and unevenness in your skin tone. Skin moisturizers help to keep you skin from appearing dry, uneven, tight, and flaky. They can also help skin appear more youthful and glowing. Moisturizing properly can also reduce pimple outbreaks. Moisturize right after you wash your face or shower to help keep your skin's natural moisture in. If you are prone to oily skin or clogged pores, look for moisturizers that are "noncomedogenic" to help keep your skin clear. Getting rid of dry, flaky skin cells will allow your skin to look more youthful and glowing.Exfoliating scrubs often use microbeads or ground fruit pits to scrub out your pores and remove dead skin. If you have skin issues such as rosacea, extremely sensitive skin, or acne, you might not want to exfoliate, however. Exfoliating scrubs can be irritating to these skin types. Hot showers can strip skin and dry it out, making it appear older and less healthy. Taking shorter, lukewarm showers will help your face stay healthy as well as the rest of the skin on your body. Using an SPF 30 sunscreen daily will help prevent skin damage such as fine lines, wrinkles, and discoloration. The sun can also aggravate acne, so you want to protect your skin. Reapply every few hours if necessary, especially if you are sweating or swimming. If your pores clog easily, try to find a sunscreen that has "noncomedogenic" on the label. That means that it is not oil-based and is less...

Article in English: As previously noted, Jesus saved the soul from the consequences of sin by sacrificing Himself on the cross. You must make a conscious decision to accept the offer of salvation before your soul can truly be free, however.  If you haven't done so already, ask Christ to come into your life, forgive your sins, and set you free. This is a crucial first step. Without relying on Christ to free you from original sin, you'll still be captive to sin in all its forms. Doing the right thing out of a sense of duty is legalism, and it isn't what God wants. God wants your love. If you come to love God more than you love your sins and the temporary pleasures those sins bring, you will naturally begin to shift away from your sinful nature.  Focus on doing good works—the works of the Spirit—before worrying about avoiding wicked works of the flesh. When you fix your eyes on that which is good, you are less likely to be drawn toward that which is evil. When addressing a specific sin or temptation, overcome that evil with something good. For instance, do something nice for someone you love instead of simply telling yourself to stop stewing in anger toward someone else. Acting on the impulse to do something good can distract you from an otherwise bad impulse to do bad more effectively than doing nothing would. Habitual sins embed themselves into a person's life in a way that makes them difficult to acknowledge. You may tell yourself that a particular sin is nothing more than a “bad habit” and, as such, isn't that serious. Breaking free from that sin and a lifestyle of sin can only happen once you acknowledge just how serious your own sins are.  All sin is evil and falls short of God's holiness. This includes both the littlest lie and the most gruesome murder. Addiction support groups usually ask their members to begin by admitting to the addiction. A person cannot fix a problem until he or she admits to having it. In the same way, you can only break away from sin by admitting to the sins you've committed. Promise God that you will...

Article in English: As said above, if a guy likes you (really likes you) he's going to want to know about you. That means that he's going to listen and remember when you talk. If he isn't listening, it's a pretty good bet that he's not interested. You can do better! He's also unlikely to ask you any questions about yourself. This is a guy you definitely want to stay away from. Either he's not interested, or he is interested, but he's too much of a narcissist to really see you as a fully fledged person who's interesting in their own right. While some guys can be nervous about making eye contact with a person they're interested in, at some point they usually do so. If he's looking at the room instead of you, especially if he doesn't seem to be listening to you, then he's definitely not interested. A big warning sign for someone like this is if he's too busy checking his phone to listen to you. It means that he's more interested in other people than he is in you. His body language can tell you a bit about how he's feeling, whether he's interested or not interested. If he isn't interested his body language should make that pretty clear.  He never tries to get closer to you, or touch you, even subtly. If he doesn't do particularly nice things for you, or anything for you, this could be a sign that he's not interested. Again, even if a guy is shy or dealing with his interest by ignoring you, he's still going to want to be around you. If the guy is never around, well, that's a sign he's not interested. With a very, very few exceptions, a guy will get in touch with a girl he's interested in. He will. A text message takes five seconds to write and send, even if it's just an "I'm busy at work. I'll text you later." A guy who is interested in you won't leave you hanging, especially if he wants you so bad. If the guy always manages to wriggle out of meeting your friends he's probably not that interested in you. Yeah, you don't want to introduce him to all the friends right off the bat, but if it's been a while and he's still the mystery man...

Article in English: As satisfying as you think it might be to call your husband the names he might call you, don’t do it. It won’t help your relationship to descend to his level. If he is willing to seek help and therapy, then there’s hope. If he is unwilling to work on changing his abusive attitude, it’s best to work on leaving the relationship, if only for a brief time until you can agree on some kind of therapy program. As satisfying as it might be to make a hard and fast deadline — if you call me names again, I’m leaving forever — think about what’s realistic. Will you stay when he is working on changing his behavior? At what point will you give up and leave? Share your plan with your support network so they can help you if it becomes necessary to follow through with your exit plan. It’s usually impossible to fix an abusive relationship. Don’t keep threatening to leave then stay — go when he steps out of bounds you have discussed. Reach out to family and friends with information about how to contact you and that you are leaving.  Change your cell phone number and give it out only to trusted friends and family, asking them not to give it out. Delete any search history with research about your leaving on shared computers. If you are worried about retaliation and anger, leave a fake trail. Do internet searches for towns hours from where you plan to be. Write down phone numbers of motels in that town (where you won’t be). Go to a safe place that you have set up beforehand — shelter, the house of someone your husband doesn’t know, a hotel. Communicate with your husband through a note you leave at home and let him know you have left and the steps you will be taking (restraining order, divorce, etc.) Let him know a family member or friend he can contact to reach you, but warn him that he will not be able to talk to you directly.

Article in English: As skin ages, it becomes more sensitive and loses elasticity. Because of this, extra care must be taken with your daily skincare regimen. Wash your face with lukewarm water once in the morning and once in the evening before bed. Use a mild, gentle cleanser with a creamy consistency, which won’t strip your skin of its natural moisture.  Before cleansing, always wash your hands thoroughly to avoid transferring bacteria to your face. After cleansing, dry your face gently by patting it with soft washcloth. Never use scrubbing motions to dry your skin. If you have oily or acne-prone skin, try cleansers with salicylic acid or sulfur. Unless you have visible acne lesions, avoid products that contain benzoyl peroxide. This chemical is too harsh for mature skin. Washing your face alters the skin’s natural pH levels. Toner restores that pH balance. When pH balance is restored, you will experience less inflammation and your skin will be more resilient to bacteria. Wait a few minutes after cleansing, then gently swipe a toner-soaked cotton pad all over your face. Do not rinse the toner off.  Avoid applying toner to the sensitive skin around your eyes. Use a toner that is alcohol-free for best results. Moisturizing regularly is crucial for aging skin. After cleansing and toning, apply a thin layer of deeply hydrating moisturizer to your skin. This will plump it and minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles. Make sure the one you choose has a minimum of SPF 30 sunscreen in it if you’re planning to go outside. Wearing sunscreen is one of the easiest and most effective ways to prevent premature aging, sun damage and wrinkles.  If you struggle with oily skin, select a moisturizer that is oil-free. Gel formulas tend to be the lightest moisturizers. If you have dry or sensitive skin, use a cream formula. These tend to be thicker and heavier. It’s tempting to apply more makeup to correct the skin imperfections that come with aging, but doing this unfortunately tends to add years to your face. Makeup sinks into the fine lines...

Article in English: As some horse experts might tell you, "you can't teach the canter from the canter." Horses need good foundational knowledge of the trot and walk (plus the muscle strength that comes from learning these commands) to learn the canter properly. Without this, your horse may have difficulty maintaining safe canter form, which can be bad for you and (especially) the horse. This is extra true with young, inexperienced (or "green") horses. Since the canter is what's called a "three-beat gait," it puts the horse's entire body weight on the outside hind leg when it steps off. Young horses typically don't develop the strength necessary to do this safely without good foundational training. The canter should be taught in a flat, open space that's at least about 60 feet (about 20 meters) wide. Begin by trotting at a steady, comfortable pace (in whichever direction is easiest for you to control.)  Horses need lots of space to balance properly as they're learning the canter, so don't skimp and use a space that's too small. In some cases, a lack of space can even lead some horses to become panicky or agitated.  Note that, at this point, the horse should be tacked up with bridle, saddle, side reins, and boots. Before you teach the canter the first time, you want your horse attentive and responsive to you. To do this, give the horse a few commands that it already knows. For instance, try transitioning between a walk and a trot and back again a few times until the horse is sharp to your commands and is responding instantly. Now, you're ready to perform the canter command. Get the horse moving in a wide circle at a trot once again. When you're ready, say "can-TER" in a sharp (but not angry) voice. The goal here is to associate your verbal command with the act that you're about to ease your horse into doing — eventually, your voice alone should be enough to get a good canter from your horse. When you make this command, you'll execute a few commands with your body (described in the next step) simultaneously. For more detail on...

Article in English: As soon as Apple or Android tells you an update is ready, download and install it. Many hackers take advantage of vulnerabilities in out-of-date operating systems. Updates patch these holes and make your phone more secure. Don't download just any app. Read recommendations from trustworthy sources like Consumer Reports, CNET, and AV-TEST. Make sure that you choose an antivirus from a reputable antivirus company that you recognize, such as Norton, McAfee, Avast, or Bitdefender. Antivirus apps from reputable companies are better at detecting viruses than apps from unknown companies.  For the most part, the iOS software is difficult to hack. However, some versions might have vulnerabilities. The best you can do is update your software as soon as new versions are released and be careful which apps you can install.  Don't rely on Google Play Protect as your antivirus. Play Protect has preformed poorly in tests.  Password-protect your security software, if possible. Pick something that's complex, yet easy to remember. Avoid birthdays, pets' names, bank PINs, or part of your phone number. Follow the instructions at Apple or Android support to set yours up.  To set a passcode for your iPhone, choose a code that consists of six digits, four digits, or an alphanumeric code you set yourself.   Avoid easy unlocking methods. Don't be tricked by fingerprint- or facial recognition. Hackers can copy your fingerprints from drinking glasses or use photographs of you. Don't set your phone to automatically unlock when you're at home or when it's near other smart devices. If someone breaks into your home or gets a hold of your smart watch, your phone will be vulnerable.  For an Android phone, start at the menu button from the home screen. Tap “Settings,” then “Security,” and then “Screen Lock.” The actual words might be different depending on your phone's brand name. Choose between Pattern Unlock, a personal PIN, or an alphanumeric password. After that, choose how long you want your phone to wait before locking. Download apps only...

Article in English: As soon as a spill happens, grab some clean paper towels to wipe away the bulk of it. Once that is done, take a clean, dry washcloth and blot the stained area by pressing down on it repeatedly. Blotting the spill should help draw up any liquid or matter that has already started to set into the leather. If your leather is stained with butter, body lotion, oil, or any other kind of grease or fat, use a dry washcloth to wipe off as much of it as you can. Once the grease has mostly been removed, sprinkle enough baking soda over the stain so it’s completely covered. Leave the baking soda on the stain for 2 to 3 hours, then wipe it away with a clean cloth.  Don’t use water to wipe away grease stains. Water could actually cause the grease to set into the leather, rather than clearing it away. The baking soda helps draw the grease out of the leather, making it easier to wipe away. Dip a cotton ball into rubbing alcohol and gently squeeze it out so it’s not dripping wet. Then dab the cotton ball against the ink stain to remove it from the leather. Dab in an up-and-down motion, rather than rubbing the area. Stop once the stain has been lifted. Depending on how big the stain is, you may need to use more than 1 cotton ball. The stain should transfer from the leather to the cotton ball, so when you notice the cotton looks stained, trade it out for a fresh one. Dampen a clean cloth in distilled water, and blot any areas on your leather furniture that have been stained by water-based liquids. After the stain has been blotted, leave the spot to air-dry. The water and cloth will clean away any stickiness left from the liquid. Mix together 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of lemon juice and 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of cream of tartar in a small bowl. Spread the mixture over the stained area. Let it sit for 10 minutes, and then wipe it clean with a damp washcloth. Don’t use this method on darker pieces, as the lemon juice could lighten the leather.

Article in English: As soon as the application is downloaded, begin filling it out. Make sure you read the instructions that come with the application so you are sure you fill it out correctly the first time. Included in the application packet is a document checklist. Be sure you have everything you need and in the right format. Fair warning: it's an extensive checklist. If you do not fill out everything correctly and include everything you need, it will get sent back to you. You will get very frustrated if this happens and it's very easy to avoid -- so read everything thoroughly. In general, the citizenship office is not looking for originals. If you send originals, you will not have them when you need them for the actual interview. Grab that document checklist and make sure you have everything. And in case something goes wrong, make photocopies of your photocopies. You'll need photocopies of transcripts, school records, travel records, your Maple Leaf Card, your ID card, and proof of language evidence, in case you were curious. These fees will be listed in the instruction manual. The application fees are non-refundable and the fees have to be paid each time you apply for Canadian citizenship at the same time you send in your application. As of 2013, the total fees for one adult were $200 CAD -- and it must be paid in Canadian currency. It is preferred that you complete this online (with your application). However, you can also pay the fees at a financial institution in Canada. If you choose the in-person method, you will need to fill out a payment receipt form (IMM 5401). The cashier will handle the brunt of this. The half you receive back should be filled out and attached to your application. Make sure you have two photographs taken that meet these requirements. Sign your name at the bottom of each photograph and attach these with a paperclip to your citizenship application. Do one more once-over; do you have everything you need? If so, you can mail it to the address given in the application instruction manual.  The address...

Article in English: As soon as the blister pops, tears, or opens, wash it well. Use warm water and soap. Any dirt in the blister should wash away with the soap. If something is lodged in your skin, visit your doctor to have it thoroughly cleaned and treated. If the skin over the blister tears off partially or completely, that’s okay. However, don’t try to pull off the overlying skin. Leave as much skin intact as possible. Don’t pick at the edges of the exposed skin. You can use a plain ointment like petroleum jelly to keep the blister hydrated and comfortable, but using an antibiotic ointment can also help prevent infection. Apply a large enough dab of ointment to cover the whole raw area of the open blister. If you prefer a natural alternative, use calendula cream. Apply an adhesive bandage over the blister or, if the blister covers a large area, a sterile gauze pad held in place with medical tape. Change the bandage every day, or if it gets dirty. Apply more ointment every time you change the bandage. You can also use a hydrocolloid dressing, which may provide more relief than a sterile bandage. You can get these from most pharmacies. Continue to change your dressing daily until the blister stops being tender. Then trim the dried, dead skin. Use small nail scissors or nail clippers that have been sterilized by rubbing them with alcohol, boiling them for several minutes, or holding them over an open flame for about one minute.  Do not pull the dead skin, as this can cause further injury to the tender area. Clip the skin carefully.

Article in English: As soon as the contract is signed and the final details are in order, remove the statue from its place in your yard. Unwrap the protective cloth and wash away any dirt that managed to get on the statue itself.  According to legend, if you leave the statue in the yard, the new owners of the house will not be able to stay there for a long time. New owners will come and go until the statue is finally removed. While there may not be any proof to back this legend, removing the statue should at least be done as a sign of respect. Offer a prayer of thanks—first to God, and then to St. Joseph for his intercession. You can offer a prayer from your heart and in your own words, or you could say a generic pre-written prayer of thanks. Either way, the important thing is to pray with sincerity. An example prayer of thanks would be: "Heavenly Father, I thank you for my life and everything you have bestowed upon me and upon all people, this day and every day. I thank you for the good and bad, the understanding of forgiveness, and your holy power, without which we would have nothing. I thank you this day for all your blessings, your gifts, your never ending love for us. Although we all are sinners, I ask you to forgive me every day for what I might have done wrong, that I might not have noticed. Even though we all come short of the glory of God, I thank you for the sacrifice of your only son Jesus Christ for all our sins. You and only you know us Father and you know if our hearts are true. So once again, I thank you with all my heart and soul. In the name of Christ I pray. Amen." Since intercession to St. Joseph helped you sell your home, it is customary to display the statue you buried in your new home. Doing so demonstrates gratitude and reverence. The display does not need to be anything fancy. Simply sitting the statue on your mantel or desk will suffice.

Article in English: As soon as the food reaches your table, make some notes on the appearance. Is it clean and beautiful or messy and tired? Remember, a food review is about the experience, not just the taste, so you need to capture all of these details. If you are at a restaurant that allows it, try and snap a quick picture with your phone. This will make it much easier to write about the appearance later. Savor the first few bites, sampling everything on the plate before writing anything else down. Eat slowly and enjoy the meal before trying to get too critical. Make sure you eat the dish the way it was intended first-- don't pick out any ingredients or try things separately until later. Use adjectives and clear language when making your notes. "I liked the use of rosemary" is not as helpful as "the rosemary crust was light and herbal and perfect complemented the soft, fluffy potatoes." That said, this is just the time to take notes, so don't worry about getting the language perfect. Writing down specific details now about why you liked/disliked a dish will make your writing much, much easier later. This is where you start to get into the specifics of a good food review. Try each part of the meal separately, checking for the following criteria:   Texture. How does the food feel in your mouth? Again, be specific, as there is a variety of textures, all of which can be good or bad.  Spices: Are the spices consistent throughout the meal? Can you tell what some of the spices are?  Complexity: A hard one to describe, complexity is a measure of the variety of flavors in a food. A good cook doesn't just go for "lemon-flavored" or "garlic & pepper," they go for a nuanced, unique taste to their food. Do the individual parts of the dish come together to make something new or better than the sum of their parts? If you're with other people, make sure you taste their dishes as well and make a couple of quick notes. This is the best way to get a full idea of the menu and the restaurants strengths and weaknesses. Be sure to write down the...

Before treating the stain, read the care tag on the item. If the item is dry clean only, take it to the cleaners as soon as possible. Otherwise, find out if the garment can be laundered normally or if it needs to be hand washed and laid flat or hung up to dry. Take note of the temperature requirements as well as adjust your stain-removing strategy as needed. For instance, if your item says to wash in cold water only, use cold water rather than hot in the following steps. You can use baby powder, baking soda, talcum powder, cornstarch, or waterless mechanic's soap  to further remove the oil from the fabric. Sprinkle the powder over the oil and let it sit for 30 minutes to absorb as much oil as possible. Then, use a spoon to scrape the oil and powder off the garment. Alternatively, you could rub plain white chalk over the spot to absorb the oil. Rinse the item with hot water, then apply a few drops of regular dish soap to the stain. Scrub the soap into the fabric with a toothbrush, then rinse it with hot water.  The dish soap can be clear or colored, just make sure it doesn't have added moisturizers. As an alternative to dish soap, you could use shampoo, laundry soap, or aloe vera gel instead. As long as your garment is machine washable, you can pop it in the washing machine and launder it as usual. Follow the instructions on the care tag to determine the hottest water temperature the fabric can take. If the item is delicate, hand wash it. If your fabric is delicate, use a gentle detergent. Before putting the garment in the dryer, check to see if the stain is gone. You may need to let the item air dry so you can inspect the fabric when it's dry. If you put the item in the dryer and the stain isn't gone, the heat will set it into the fabric. Be sure to air dry any delicate fabrics rather than putting them in the dryer. If you let the item air dry and still...

Article in English: As soon as you arrive at your destination, hang the garments in the closet, so any wrinkles have time to relax. Many hotels offer ironing boards and irons free of charge.  If any items will need ironing, take the opportunity to do all of them at once so you will not have to try to remember later when you may be in a hurry.  Read the labels of your clothing carefully and set the iron temperature accordingly. Begin ironing in an inconspicuous area, such as a shirt-tail in case you accidentally damage your clothes. Avoid ironing irreplaceable items, such as an evening gown.  These items are often difficult to iron or made of fragile fabrics. One way to remove wrinkles is to use warm steam.  Hanging clothing in the bathroom and then taking a hot shower will relax the wrinkles in your clothes. Alternatively, you could dampen the item with a washcloth then use an electric hairdryer to generate steam.  Natural fibers absorb moisture, so this process will work with silk, wool, cotton or other natural materials. Synthetic fabrics such as rayon or polyester do not absorb moisture, so steaming will not remove wrinkles. You can wash and dry polyester or use an iron to remove wrinkles. Use a small lint brush or roller to remove any dust or fuzz from your clothes.

Article in English: As soon as you become aware that your friend is mad at you, you need to figure out what you said or did that caused him to get upset.  You may already know, but if you do not, take time to reflect on your recent actions around and words to him. What did you say or do that might have upset him? If you cannot determine what made him angry with you, you will have to ask him. You cannot sincerely apologize for something that you did not know was wrong or upsetting. You could have done any number of things to upset your guy friend. An important step in giving a sincere apology is admitting to yourself that you made a mistake. It can be a challenge to do this because many people do not like admitting that they are wrong or that they did something wrong. However, this is a key component to giving a genuine apology and repairing your friendship. Presumably, you know your guy friend pretty well. Another key aspect of apologizing to him involves knowing why this particular issue upset him.  Did you offend his values or beliefs? Did you hurt his feelings? Did you lie to him? Did you offend his family or another close friend? Did you physically hurt him? Generally speaking, in-person apologies are much preferred. However, if an in-person apology is not possible, the next best options are writing a personal letter or giving him a phone call. Most people strongly recommend against sending an apology in a text message, because it seems insincere. You are sending the message to your friend that you do not have or do not want to take the time to apologize in person and that you do not value his friendship. If you chose to apologize in-person, ask your guy friend if he will meet up with you to talk the next day. Otherwise, plan to write him a letter or wait a day before calling him.  It is best to give both of you time to calm down and take a step back from the situation. In some cases, apologizing immediately comes off as insincere and selfish. However, you want to avoid waiting too long, because that will cause resentment to...

Article in English: As soon as you bury the statue, you should say a prayer to St. Joseph, asking for his intercession. The exact prayer can vary, and you can go with a pre-written prayer or a prayer from your own heart.  Some prayers “threaten” St. Joseph, essentially stating that he should sell your home for you if he wants to get out of the ground. These prayers somewhat undermine the value of asking for intercession, however, so they are generally not preferred. Consider using a simple, humble prayer, like the following: "O Blessed St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I pray you to join with me in praising God the Father through his divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the holy name of Jesus, pray that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask for: our home sale. We have been unfaithful to the unfailing love of God the Father; beg of Jesus mercy for us his brothers and sisters. Amid the splendors of God's loving presence, do not forget the sorrows of whose who weep. By your prayers and those of your most holy spouse, our blessed Lady, may the love of Jesus answer our call of confident hope. Amen." While saying a single prayer at the time of burial is good, repeating a prayer for intercession each day from that point on demonstrates a greater degree of faith and earnestness. You can say the same prayer each day or offer a different one. Instead of saying a standard prayer each day, you could try saying a novena. A novena is a set of prayers recited over the course of nine days. There are different variations, but essentially, you say a different prayer each day and follow each prayer with an “Our Father.” Consider using the following novena:  Day One: O God, guide of those who listen and helper of those who hear your voice, speak to me, as you did to St. Joseph, and help me accomplish the things you give me to do. Day Two: O God, you love your people and bless the ordinary lives we quietly live. As you...

Article in English: As soon as you can, run cool water over the burn. This will prevent further damage to your skin. Stick the burned area under cool running water for 10-15 minutes or until the pain subsides. Avoid using cold water, since this can damage the skin around the burn. The sudden shock of extreme heat to extreme cold will only slow the healing process. As soon as you can, or while rinsing the burn, remove anything that might constrict your skin as the wound swells. When in doubt, take it off. This lets blood to flow to the wound and starts healing it. Removing tight clothing or jewelry can also prevent further damage. If cold water isn’t an option, use a cold compress or ice pack wrapped in a towel. Place it over your burn. Apply the compress for 10-15 minutes, wait for 30 minutes, and then reapply for 10-15 minutes.  Never apply ice or your compress directly to the burn, since this will damage the skin. Keep the towel between you and the ice instead. An over-the-counter pain reliever such as ibuprofen, acetaminophen, aspirin, or naproxen can be helpful if the symptoms are bothering you. If the pain does not lessen after several hours, take another dose of the medication. Avoid giving aspirin to young children or if you are recently recovering from the flu or chickenpox. Follow the specific package instructions. They'll be different depending on what medication you choose. After washing your hands, use soap and water to clean the burn and prevent infection. Apply an antibiotic like Neosporin when you are done to keep the burn clean. Aloe vera can also soothe your skin. Look for aloe vera with few additives. Antibiotics or aloe vera can also keep the bandages from sticking.  Do not pop blisters while you clean since they actually protect your skin from infection. Take care not to pop the blister or drain the contents, since the body is able to take care of minor blisters on its own. Antibiotic ointment isn't needed if your blisters haven't popped. But, if they have or if your wound is exposed, use an antibiotic to...

Article in English: As soon as you expose your precious whisky to O2, the spirit starts losing some of its character. Oxygen starts converting the alcohol into vinegar. So drink responsibly, but don't sip so slowly that your cargo turns into undrinkable acid. Bottoms up! Of course, if you like your whisky cold and super-diluted, go for it. But most whisky drinkers consider ice to be passé. Cool temperatures tend to mask certain flavors, and over-diluted whiskey is more water than whisky, anyway, right? If you really want your whisky cold, try using whisky rocks instead. They can be put in the refrigerator or freezer and, if manufactured properly, don't leave an aftertaste. Of course, if you're just a beginner, this may seem a bit odd. But many people consider whisky collecting a fun and enlightening hobby. Here are a couple things for you to consider when starting your own collection:  Buy what you enjoy drinking, not what you think will be worth big bucks later on. The whisky auction market is quite volatile. Prices fluctuate often. The best bet for collecting is to stick what you like; that way, if the price of whisky plummets in 10 years, or doesn't outstrip inflation, you'll still be happy drinking your whisky. Keep your receipts. Keep your receipts in the whisky bottle itself. It's a nice little reminder of what you paid, and helps you enjoy the whisky more once you finally decide to pop the cork. Keep your stash in different places. If a snooping child or a devastating fire were to hit your stash, it pays to diversify. Don't keep your eggs all in one basket.

Article in English: As soon as you flatulate, be sure to walk away fast because you don't want the fumes to get stuck to your clothes. But also make sure that the smell doesn't follow you. Not like a wood chair but like your couch. Being in seats like that will reduce a lot the risk of a sounding fart. If you can't get a seat like that, sit on your sweater or jacket. put your weight on your right buttock and lean to the right). This separates your buttocks and makes your fart silent. You could also drop your pencil on the floor and reach for it so you don't look weird leaning to the left or right in your chair. CAUTION: The smell will go to the opposite direction you are leaning in, so aim your gasses to an empty area. The teacher may say yes, and then you can do it in the bathroom! Release your fart precisely as the object makes contact with the floor, as this will effectively cancel out the noise. (Warning: Be sure to time your release exactly right. If you fart too soon, the noise will still be heard. If you fart after the book is dropped, the book will draw attention to you and your fart will be noticed by more people. Make sure that it has a noise sensor, that is activated by the occurrence of a sound. It should be able to effectively cover up any noise released from your fart. (Note: does not necessarily account for the odor, so be cautious. In addition, practice several times at home before using it at school, in case something goes wrong).

Article in English: As soon as you get home from school, gather everything you will need to do your homework in front of you. Lay out the materials for each assignment you are going to do. Clear anything else off your work surface.  If you have many textbooks and worksheets, stack them and put them to the side. Lay out the materials one at a time. Having a big pile of visible homework may stress you out. Before you sit down, ask yourself: what am I about to do? What do I need to get it done? Get things like pencils, erasers, calculators, rulers, and paper. Generally, you should start with your hardest homework. However, if you are having a really hard time getting started, ease yourself into homework mode by doing your easiest assignment first. Zipping through a topic you are good at may motivate you to zip through the rest of your homework.  Do your hardest assignment second, and save your second-easiest assignment for last. Don't save the hardest assignment for last—you may be tired by the time you reach the end of your homework pile.  Keep a list of your assignments, and check them off as you finish them. This can give you a sense of accomplishment that can motivate you to keep going. Once you have your station set up and your starter assignment laid out, take a quick break. Get a snack, use the bathroom, walk the dog, text, or chat with your family for 15-30 minutes. Take more time if you need it, but make sure that there is plenty of time leftover for your homework. Once you return to your desk, it will be easy to start.  Setting up your first assignment and then walking away gets you subconsciously thinking about your homework. Catch up with a family member about both of your days. When you come home from school, your brain is usually full of school thoughts. Take a moment to process and to hear how a parent or sibling's day went. Do your first assignment. Estimate how long it will take you. Decide on a reward for finishing the assignment.

Article in English: As soon as you get out of the shower or bath, apply at least a light layer of moisturizer. This will help replace the natural oils that may have been removed by bathing and will also help lock in the moisture absorbed while you were in the water. If you do not have time to shower but you want to moisturize your legs, wrap them in a warm, wet cloth for 10 to 20 minutes. This will moisten your skin and open up your pores, so that the moisturizer can be properly absorbed. Lanolin is one of the few products which is known to produce lasting effects on the skin. It is a natural product made from a wax naturally produced by wool-producing animals like sheep, which is specifically designed to protect skin.  Liberally coat your legs in lanolin cream, such as Bag Balm, every day for a week. Once this week has passed, you can move to coating with only a normal layer once every 3-4 days. You can also coat your legs at night and then wear some old pajamas over the top, letting the product sink in while you sleep. Baby oil, coconut oil, sesame seed oil, and almond oil all make great moisturizers. Any one of these can be really helpful for getting your skin back to normality. It's not always the best long-term solution, however.  If you shave your legs, the oil can cause irritation and block the hair follicle, causing ingrown hairs. For this reason, you might not want to rely on oil all of the time, though applying the oil in the direction of your hair growth can help. However, for just helping your skin heal while you work on changes to your routine or for protecting your skin during the coldest days of winter, oil is great. Many other moisturizers do very, very little for your skin. Many are just a layer of goo that basically just sits on top of your skin. Look for the known ingredients which help skin, humectants and emollients, and pass on all those other creams because they're just a waste of money.  You want products that contain ingredients like lactic acid, Propylene glycol, and urea. One ingredient you'll really...

Article in English: As soon as you get out of the shower or bathtub, rub a thick lotion all over your legs. Try to do this while your legs are still a little bit wet (but not soaked), as the water will help lock in the moisture from the lotion.   Only moisturize after you shave, never before. Moisturizing before you shave will clog the pores and keep you from reaching all of the hair with your razor.  Avoid lotions that contain alpha-hydroxy or alcohol, as these products can irritate skin that has just been shaven. If your skin is particularly dry or prone to eczema, you may want to try a thicker cream as opposed to a lotion. Good options include CeraVe Moisturizing Cream and Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream, both of which are easy to find in stores and online. Although post-shave is the most important time to apply lotion, you will want to moisturize daily, especially if you go several days in between shaves. Try to get into a habit of doing it at the same time every day (at night or while getting dressed in the morning, for example) so that you don’t forget.  Although you want to moisturize frequently, don’t overdo it; too much lotion can lead to clogged pores. Once or twice a day is sufficient. Before going to bed at night, massage olive oil into your legs, wait for the skin to absorb it, then rinse in the shower. This will leave your legs feeling silky soft!

Article in English: As soon as you get out of the sun, take an over-the-counter (OTC) anti-inflammatory medication, such as Aspirin. Go ahead and ingest the highest recommended dose for at least the first 24 hours to kick-start the healing process. Keep taking the medication until the immediate discomfort from the burn has subsided.  No matter how much pain you feel, it is critical that you follow the dosage instructions for OTC or prescription pain medications. Taking more than the proper dosage can cause serious medical injuries, such as liver damage. Read the label carefully to determine how many pills to take and at what intervals. Make sure that you are also aware of any possible pain medication side effects or drug interactions. These are often also listed on the bottle’s label or you can contact your doctor with any questions. For example, people with bleeding issues are often advised to avoid consuming Aspirin. You can also get a small bowl, drop one or two aspirin tablets into it, and crush them into a paste (adding a little water, if needed). Then, apply this paste to the most burned areas. Wipe off after a few minutes. However, for health safety reasons, do not crush and use more pills than the recommended dosage on the bottle or apply this paste while also taking a pain medication orally. Pull out a soft cotton washcloth and dip it into cool, not cold, water. Wring it out slightly and then place it on your skin. Re-soak the cloth and repeat as necessary. You can also dip the cloth in whole cold milk. This will let you get the cooling benefits and the restorative effects of vitamin D. Run a bath for yourself using cool, not cold, water. Soak for a bit. For even more benefit, fill up a clean sock with 2 cups of uncooked oatmeal and tie it off at the end. Place the filled sock in the tub with you and squeeze it to release the juices. The oatmeal’s polysaccharides will coat and calm your skin.  You can also, of course, dump the raw oats directly into the tub with you, but expect more of a clean-up this way. Resist the...

Article in English: As soon as you get stung, get the stinger out of your skin. This is the most important thing you can do! Some people suggest that scraping the stinger out with a credit card is better than pinching it out, but this is more likely to slow down the removal. Some scientists don’t think this is even true, and that removing the stinger as quickly as possible is the best thing you can do.  You should be able to see the stinger where you’ve been stung. It will be about the size of the tip of a pen and consists of the stinger itself with some torn flesh from the bee. Sometimes, the bee will remain connected to the stinger by a string of flesh. Get it out with your fingernails, if possible. Otherwise grab a credit card to sweep it out don't pinch it or it will release more venom into the body.

Article in English: As soon as you get your French bulldog, make your dog part of your family and household. Don't feel like you need to shield it from noisy activities or energetic family members. Just make sure the activity or noise is non-threatening. For example, don't tease your new dog by chasing it with a broom or vacuum. This will cause it to fear the noise or you. Your French bulldog should be comfortable with riding in vehicles. This way, if you ever need to take it to the vet, your dog won't be traumatized. Riding in a car will also introduce your dog to street sights and sounds from the car window. To keep you and your dog safe, your dog should be secured in a harness or carrier while you're driving. Just remember not to take your dog along in the car if it's a very hot or humid day. Dogs can die if left in a hot car, even if left alone for only a few minutes. Choose a dog park so your dog can practice playing with other dogs and interacting with humans. Playing at the park is also a good chance for your dog to burn off some energy. Just be sure that your dog has had its first two distemper vaccines before taking it to a dog park. To prevent dog fighting and keep control over your dog, keep it on a leash. You should try to expose your dog to as many different dogs, people, and sights and sounds as you can. If you feel like your dog needs more interaction, consider signing it up for a socialization or obedience class. Your French bulldog will get personal time with other humans and dogs while getting important training. You can find dog classes at local community centers, through 4-H clubs, or pet shops. You can also ask your vet to recommend socialization classes.

Article in English: As soon as you get your results, your doctor will want to schedule a follow-up appointment. Do not postpone this appointment. Make the appointment for sometime within the next one to two weeks.  Some women feel so anxious or upset about their test results that they avoid making follow-up appointments or skip their scheduled follow-up appointments. Abnormal Pap test results can be scary, but don’t give in to the urge to avoid thinking about them. Remember: you probably do not have cancer, and even if you do, starting treatment as early as possible will be crucial. If you had your Pap smear done by a general practitioner, you may be referred to a gynecologist for your follow-up appointment. When you go to your follow-up appointment, ask your doctor to clarify your results and explain them in detail. Ask what further testing he or she recommends and what comes next. Consider bringing a spouse, partner, or trusted friend to this appointment. When you are worried or upset, it can be difficult to listen carefully and remember everything your doctor tells you. Having someone else with you can serve two purposes: first, the emotional support will calm you down so that you can be a more attentive listener, and second, the other person can also listen carefully to the doctor and remind you later about details you may have missed. If you haven't already had this test, it may help your doctor better understand the cause of your abnormal Pap smear results and help him or her decide how to proceed with your treatment. For some abnormal test results, especially ASCUS and CIN 1, your doctor may suggest simply waiting and retesting in a few months. Abnormal cells often go away on their own, which is why you may need no treatment at all. If your abnormal Pap smear was caused by an HPV infection, your body may be able to clear the virus naturally. If your doctor suspects that your abnormal Pap smear results may have hormonal causes, he or she may write you a prescription to correct your hormone balance. Your doctor may also...
