Article in English: Chances are that you’re losing a lot of fluids and valuable electrolytes if you have diarrhea. Making sure you stay hydrated not only can help you feel better but also flush out your system more quickly.  Try and get at least 8 ounces of clear liquids every hour. Clear liquids include water, broths, juices and even clear carbonated beverages. Broth and clear soups such as chicken soup and 100% fruit juices are good choices because they will also help replace electrolytes.  Consider carrying your liquid with you in a bottle or Thermos. Let your teacher or the school nurse know why you have it in case there is a problem. For example, say, “I know it’s against policy to have a drink, but I’ve been very sick and need to make sure I’m drinking enough water throughout the day.” You can also ask your parent or a school nurse to provide a note as an explanation for your teacher. Avoid drinking any caffeinated drinks like coffee or black tea. You should also not drink alcohol. If you have diarrhea, your stomach is probably very upset and needs a chance to rest. Eating according to the BRAT diet-- which stands for bananas, rice, applesauce, and toast-- can settle your stomach and intestinal tract as well as replace electrolytes.  Have boiled potatoes, crackers, and gelatin at lunch if you can. Consider carrying your lunch and snacks such as soda crackers can also help ease your stomach. Other good options are bananas, apricots, and sports drinks.  If you bring perishable foods to school, make sure that you can put your lunch in a refrigerator until it's time to eat it. You can also keep your food cold with ice packs in your lunch box. Try eating foods such as soft fruit, vegetables, and cereal if you are feeling better. It’s important to be gentle on your stomach if you are hungry when you have diarrhea. Stay away from spicy, fatty, or fried foods as well as dairy products. These could further upset your stomach and make your diarrhea worse  Avoid adding any spices to your food or eating spicy meals at lunch, such as...

Article in English: Chances are you already have a resume that lead you to an interview. However, be sure to read your resume over once again, and make any necessary changes. You may have an experience you would like to add, or contact information to update. It is also important to read over everything outlined in your resume because the interviewer will ask you questions in regards to that information. Before sitting down for an interview, make sure you have gained some knowledge about the company you are applying for. Research their mission statement and values, so you can gain a better understanding on some of the possible questions you may be asked during your interview. Develop a few questions from your research that you can ask at the end of your interview. This will show your interviewer that you took the time to learn about the company. Job interviews are not something you do everyday, so when you finally sit down for one, it can feel unnatural. Try practicing your interviewing skills until it begins to feel easy. Say your strengths and work experience out loud like you would at your formal interview, and have your friend listen to you. This will help you feel more confident when you sit down for your formal interview. Let your friend ask you interview questions and give you feedback to help you improve. Your outfit will be one of the first impressions your interviewer has about you, so make sure you put thought into it. Regardless of the type of job you are applying for, you should dress sharp, and never be casual. Your clothes should be ironed, there should be no stains or tears, and your shirt should always be tucked in.  For men, a suit, tie, and jacket is a strong look that shows you are professional. Women can wear a blouse with slacks, or a pencil skirt. A portfolio is a collection of works (art, writing, photos, etc.) you've accomplished in the past. Some careers require this, while others do not. For example, architects could include structures they have designed, or journalists could include writing samples....

Article in English: Chances are your bottle of unopened vodka is fine to drink after storing it for an extended period of time. If you've already opened the bottle and it's been a long time since you drank it, check the vodka before mixing up a drink. Throw out the vodka if:  You notice a strange smell It has an unusual or noticeably bad taste It looks different (cloudy or simply looks different than when you bought it) Pure vodka will last for years if stored properly. But if you have vodka that's flavored with natural ingredients, you should be checking it periodically to make sure it's not going bad. It's a good idea to clean through your entire liquor cabinet every 6 months or so. This will encourage you to use up alcohol that has a limited shelf life or throw out alcohol that's no longer good. Liquors with dairy or natural flavorings often have an expiration date listed on the bottle. Some of these may even benefit from being stored in the refrigerator instead of in the cabinet. If you have young children in your house, you should take extra care to make sure your vodka is out of their reach. Although your children might not go looking for your alcohol, young children are curious and may find it. To prevent accidents, keep alcohol in a high up place and lock the storage container or liquor cabinet. Even if you trust your older children, locking the liquor cabinet is a good idea. If your teen is being pressured by a friend to take your alcohol, a locked cabinet gives your child a good excuse for not giving in to the pressure. If you have teenagers in your house, you should be monitoring how much alcohol you have on hand. While you should be able to trust your children, studies suggest that monitoring alcohol in the household sends a message to your children that underage drinking is not acceptable. To monitor alcohol in your house, try:  Marking the sides of liquor bottles to track the levels Writing down how many bottles of each alcohol you have Making note of when you open a bottle of spirits or liquor

Article in English: Chances are your rabbit will want to rule the house. While you can’t expect the kind of submission you can get from a dog, you must have the respect of your rabbit in order to train it. The most common way rabbits try to assert dominance is inappropriate nipping or biting you to try to herd you or get you to leave your sitting place. If this occurs, let out a short, loud, high-pitched squeal and either put your rabbit down on the floor (if it has jumped up where you’re sitting) or pick it up and move it out of the way from you (if it is on the floor already). Do this firmly, but gently. You don’t want to hurt your rabbit or make it fear you, you simply want to assert that you are in charge. If your rabbit continues the behavior, put it in its crate for a “time-out.” First, approach your rabbit calmly so you do not elicit a fear response from the rabbit. Hang out on the floor with your rabbit. Have some treats on the floor. Reward the rabbit for coming closer to you. Leave your hand down. If the rabbit comes up to you and does not seem afraid or does not try to bite you, try to gently stroke the rabbit's head for just a few seconds.  If you do not back down and avoid the reflex to “run away” if the bunny charges you, the rabbit will learn that this behavior does not work to intimidate you.  Never hit the rabbit. You and your hands are the sources of food and pleasure, like petting on top of the rabbit’s head. If you are afraid of being injured, wear long pants, shoes, long sleeves and gloves if necessary to protect yourself from bites. A change in your rabbit’s behavior, including aggression, should be investigated to eliminate the chance that there is a medical issue causing the problem. Consult with a veterinarian familiar with rabbits to rule out pain, for instance, as a cause for misbehavior. Hormones can also influence bunny behavior and having your rabbit spayed or neutered may help decrease territorial aggression, for instance.

Article in English: Chances are, you know someone who was adopted. Talking with them can help you understand how they learned they were adopted and what they did afterward. Friends may also be able to offer you advice on how to bring your questions to your family. Thanks to social media, it is now very easy to get in touch with people from your past even if you can’t visit your childhood home in person. Understand, though, that people may not feel comfortable discussing their knowledge of your family with you. Explain to them why you want to know, but don’t press them for information if they seem reluctant. Many people go through the process of discovering that they’re adopted and dealing with that information every year. A support group of other adoptees may be able to offer you advice and resources for your own search, as well as help you handle the process emotionally. DNA sampling can track your genetic markers and compare them to those of other family members. You can visit a genetic specialist, or you can use a mail-order test like the “Family Finder” test. For this option, though, you will need to get another close relative (a parent, sibling, or first cousin) to agree to have a test done so that you have a point of comparison. If you buy a DNA test online, go with a reputable provider. The three biggest providers of online DNA testing are Ancestry.com, 23 and me, and FamilyTreeDNA. These companies also often maintain large databases of other individuals who have had these tests and can compare your DNA to theirs. A DNA test can offer you clues to your genetic identity, but it is often limited in its effectiveness without a large pool for comparison. If you are having a DNA test done without the participation of another family member, your information may be less useful.  There are 3 basic kinds of DNA tests: mitochondrial (inherited maternal DNA), Y-line (inherited paternal DNA, but only works for males), and autosomal (inherited relations to others such as cousins). Autosomal DNA tests may be the best option for...

Article in English: Chances are, you may run out of room on the marker to weave the paper. Find the end of the marker, and peel the ends of the paper away from the glue or tape. Slide the marker through the finger trap until it sticks out of the other end. You now have more marker to weave over!  You don't have to glue or tape the ends of the paper down after this. You may have to push the marker through the finger trap a few times in order to make room for weaving. How much you push the marker up by does not really matter. As long as you have enough room to keep weaving the paper, you're all set! As you weave the paper, you'll notice it becoming shorter and shorter. When you have about 2 centimetres (0.79 in) leftover, finish weaving the paper, then glue the ends of the strips together. Do the 2 strips on the front of the pen first, then do the 2 on the back. Once again, you can use hot glue, liquid school glue, or a glue stick. The trick to using a Chinese finger trap is to gently slide your finger (or marker in this case) out. Don't yank the marker or pull it too hard. Depending on how tightly you wove the paper, you may be able to just stand it on its end and let the marker slide out on its own. When you glued the strips together in the beginning, they made perfect right angles. When you glued them at the end, however, you may have ended up with some paper sticking out from under the top strip. Use scissors to trim this excess paper off so that it is even with the paper that's on top. For example, if you have an orange strip sticking out from under a yellow strip, trim it down until it is flush with the yellow strip. The harder you pull on your fingers, the tighter the trap will become. The trick is to push your fingers together so that the trap widens. Once the trap widens, brace it with your thumbs, then slide your index fingers out. Be careful not to flatten the finger trap. If the paper strips develop creases, they won't slide past each other, and the trap won't work as well.

Article in English: Chances are, you’ll feel uneasy bringing up this topic and talking it over with your husband. Don’t let the fear of discomfort dissuade you from expressing what you need to say. Remember that your current situation also makes you uncomfortable. Accept that discussing your husband’s alcoholism is going to feel uncomfortable, no matter what. Be brave and take the step. Don’t try to have this conversation when he is drinking or about to drink. Instead, choose a time when both of you are sober. Make time to have this discussion and not have things to rush off to afterward.  Don’t try to talk about the alcoholism when you are angry or upset. If you become frustrated when he opens a can of beer, now is not the time to have this discussion. Wait until both of you are in a calm and neutral state before opening the discussion. You may need to schedule time to talk. While it may be way easier to come from a place of judgment, anger, and disappointment, be compassionate. You are not chastising your husband, you are asking him to get help, for the betterment of himself and his family. Communicate your love, concern, and support to your husband. You may feel second best to alcohol when your husband turns to drinking before turning to you. You may even feel like you cannot compete with the relationship your husband has with alcohol. While your husband may support your family financially, tell him if you feel like you feel under-supported emotionally or with the family. If you feel difficulty in emotionally connected, tell him this, too.  Be honest with your feelings and disappointments. Say how the drinking not only affects you, but others as well, like kids, friends, or family. Instead of blaming onto your husband for his drinking, state your feelings. Keep statements focused on you and your feelings, not on him. Instead of saying, “Drinking makes you distant and detached” say, “It hurts me that you feel so far from me, and I miss the connection we shared.” Instead of saying, “You don’t spend any time with the kids” say,...

Article in English: Chances are, you’ve grown a lot since seventh grade and some of your everyday clothes don’t fit you anymore. Try on your old clothes in your wardrobe, and donate or give away any old pieces that don’t fit. Check your school dress code to see what clothing is okay, and what is prohibited.  Many schools don’t let students wear short shorts, tank tops, or clothes of particular colors. Check the rules before you buy new clothes to make sure that what you are getting will be appropriate. Talk to your friends about what they are planning to wear to school if you are struggling for ideas. This will help to give you a good picture about what your peers will be wearing. Over the summer, your school will have sent you a list of all of the things that you will need for the year ahead. This list usually includes things like notebooks, pens, pencils, and book covers, however things like a water bottle and gym shoes if you are taking gym are a good idea too.  If you won’t be eating cafeteria food, get a lunch box to hold your food throughout the day. The subjects that you are taking will determine what you need for the school year. You can write down when all of your homework and assignments are due so that you don't forget about any of them. You can also write daily to-do lists, to help break up your workload into manageable chunks.  A daily planner is also a great place to put your goals for eighth grade. You can include the grades you are aiming for, deadlines you want to meet, and any extra-curricular activities you want to participate in. Some highlighter pens and sticky notes can also help you to further organize your planner. Being prepared for your first day can help to settle any nerves if you have them. Make sure that you have all of your school supplies ready in your bag to transport to your locker, your lunch if you need a packed lunch, a water bottle, and gym shoes if you need them. There are also many other supplies that you can pack in your backpack to help you feel ready for eighth grade. A hairbrush, hand...

Article in English: Chances of cutting are higher when they are at home where she can have access to her tools. This can be from multiple different objects, such as razors, knives, scissors, or glass bottles. Encourage them to remove these objects from their environment so they aren't tempted to cut themself. Sit with them as they move the objects out of their immediate area. If they aren't ready to throw them away yet, have them put them on a high shelf or in a room across the house. This will give them more time to think about what they are doing before they do it, which may make them not want to cut themself. Getting your friend's mind off of their troubles is a great way to help them not want to self-harm. With their consent, try to change their surroundings and environment to help them feel better. Go on a trip, change the arrangement and decor in their room, change the wall colors, or put some interesting, funny posters, or inspirational posters. You can also help them choose the changes they want in their room and help them put those changes into effect. This can be a change in the way the room smells, looks, or feels. Be part of the process from start to finish. Take them shopping for the new items in the room and don't leave them until the project is done. Help them enjoy the process of welcoming changes into their life. Fighting the urge to cut herself can be especially hard when they are at home alone with nothing else on their mind or if they are preoccupied with themself and the painful feelings. Tell them to call you or visit when they have the urge to cut themself. Try to involve yourself in activities along with them that will keep their mind off of it. Think about their likes, interests, and hobbies and try to do something that involves those things.  If they love nature, go for a hike. If they love to paint, encourage them to paint. They can do anything creative to help, such as write a story, play an instrument, or draw a picture. They can also watch a movie or TV show, listen to music, play a game, or...

Article in English: Chanel believed in embracing new fashion and trying unusual combinations. She believed fashion was made to eventually become unfashionable, so take chances. This was her favorite color combination, as shown by her little black dress. Color blocking hats, scarves, sweaters, shirts, pants, shoes and coats creates definition and classic style. Once you have color blocking perfected with black and white, start adding brighter colors. Coco Chanel said, “Fashion is architecture. It is a matter of proportions.” She liked jackets, purses, skirts and hems with straight lines. A cropped coat or a blazer can instantly add a designer look to an outfit. It doesn’t have to be a Chanel fragrance, but it should be something that defines you as much as your clothing. Consider switching fragrances between summer and winter.

Article in English: Change all your clothes, including your shirt and shorts or pants, all your undergarments (like your underwear, bra, and socks), as well as any clothing items that touch your skin (such as a tank, camisole, or slip). Fresh clothes will keep you smelling great all day long. You may want to change your socks several times per day if you have especially stinky or sweaty feet. It’s a good idea to launder clothing items each time you wear them to remove odors. Your detergent doesn't have to be expensive, and it doesn't have to be loaded with strong fragrances. However, it does need to get rid of hidden odors within your clothes and leave you with fresh garments. You can add 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of white vinegar to your washing machine during the rinse cycle to help eliminate odors and remove sweat. Shoes can easily become smelly if they aren’t cleaned often due to the accumulation of sweat and bacteria. When they get especially dirty or stinky, wash them in your washing machine and allow them to dry in direct sunlight. In between washings, stuff your shoes with newspaper overnight to remove odors. You can also put dryer sheets in your shoes to improve their scent.  If your shoes cannot be washed, use a cotton ball dipped in alcohol to wipe out the interior and kill bacteria. Alternate between several pairs of shoes if possible. Wear one pair one day and another pair the next day to give your other shoes time to air out and dry out. Though these foods are good for you, the odors come out through your pores and stink up your breath. Alcohol and red meat also change your body odor, so try to cut down on consumption of those items as well. Opt for fresh fruits and vegetables, instead. Staying hydrated keeps your skin moisturized, which actually allows pleasant scents from lotions or fragrances to adhere to your skin better. Men should drink 15.5 cups (3.7 L) of water per day, while women should drink 11.5 cups (2.7 L) of water per day. After bathing, you can apply a scented lotion to your skin. If you plan to use perfume...

Article in English: Change can be good. Perhaps the relationship was emotionally taxing and causing you more stress than reward. Recognize the freedom you now have, which brings about new opportunities.  Feel the relief of not having to worry about the other person or be concerned with the drama they brought into your life. Spend time outside of work developing healthy relationships with friends, and others who could become romantic interests. Keep things “light and airy”, which means: stay away from deep thoughts, discussions, troubles or complaints. Portray a sense of calm and optimism that can't be pulled down by the negativity or awkwardness of the situation.  Focusing on the positive will guard against being pulled into negative discussions.  No one can take your power away from you if you remain positive. Reacting to an agitating remark will give your power to the other person. You are in control and responsible for your feelings. It is an important job. Be accepting of yourself. If you are feeling guilty or remorseful about having a relationship with someone in the work place, at school or with your roommate, you will need to forgive yourself. It doesn't mean that you forgive and “forget” what you did, and then do it again. Forgive with the intent of learning from your mistakes and stopping any attempts to self-sabotage yourself in the future. Actors get paid to pretend. You may not be an actor, but there might be a time when you need to pretend that you are doing fine when you really aren't. It is a way of protecting yourself from further hurt. Get yourself through an awkward interaction in any way that you can.  Discuss it later with a trusted friend or family member, which will allow you to process the feelings that were stirred up. Venting your feelings is a legitimate way of processing feelings and will probably make you feel better. Many people are not comfortable with silence. They feel compelled to put words into the air as if they will ease the tension in the situation. Develop a level of comfort with silence....

Article in English: Change doesn’t have to be a bad thing and many positive things can result from change. There’s no need to assume the worst when change comes along. Instead, think of what positive things may result from change. For example, it can be hard to move, but think about the exciting parts of starting a new adventure together, exploring new places, and meeting new people. If you feel like your partner has all of a sudden changed (especially for the worst), consider that your partner always had these traits, but you’re seeing him or her differently now. Once the honeymoon phase is over, you may see your partner in a different light, and it may not always be pleasant. You may not want to immediate blame your partner for the changes and instead, recognize that your perception may have changed. if you’re really bothered by something your partner does, recognize that it’s your own annoyance that is bothering you, not your partner. Find ways to cope with your feelings of annoyance or upset, such as learning to tune out behaviors or taking deep breaths. Sometimes one partner may change a viewpoint that changes the relationship, like about marriage or having kids. Don’t take differences in views or beliefs personally. Just because you and your partner have different views doesn’t mean that one is attacking the other. It doesn’t mean that your approach is lesser than and there doesn’t have to be a “best” and “worse.” It just means that you disagree, and it’s okay to accept those differences. It’s okay to call some topics “off limits” if you know that they bring conflict with no resolution. Things like politics or religion can cause major disagreements with no obvious resolution. Agree not to discuss certain topics together. If the change causes confusion or strong emotions, take some time away from each other and away from arguing. Make sure that you agree on the amount of time and that you use the time to think about the problem. Simply taking time away from each other will not solve the problem.   For example, you might...

Summary in Russian:

Article in English: Change is very healthy and is often unavoidable in life. But it’s important to take stock of why you’re trying to change your life. Many factors can motivate a person to seek change, and everyone’s reasons will vary somewhat depending on their circumstances. But before you decide to change, it’s important to make sure you’re changing for the right reasons. Think about what your motivations are for turning a new leaf. Do you want to change for yourself, or for others? Why does change matter to you? Goals and intentions are meaningless without commitment. No matter what your goals are, make a promise to yourself that you will not give up on your goals, and that you will work tirelessly to achieve success. If you can't commit to doing it for yourself, commit to succeeding for someone else's sake: a proud parent, a supportive partner, or a caring friend. No matter what you have to do, make yourself a promise that you will not give up. . If you’ve suffered any kind of misfortune or unhappiness, it can easily feel like the circumstances of your past will forever determine your future. But the reality is that the past does not have to govern your future. You can make a conscious effort to let go of the past and create your own future success.  If you are trying to overcome a trauma from your past but feel stuck in moving forward and progressing, counseling can be extremely helpful and is often necessary. Learning to deal with negative thoughts, stop ruminating, and overcome failure can be extremely helpful in letting go of a difficult past. Life changes rarely happen overnight. More likely it will be a long journey, filled with rewarding moments and frustrating ones. Cultivate a positive outlook and a promising future by finding little ways to change every day.  Change one behavior at a time. Work on really improving one aspect of your life before moving on to the next aspect of your life. If you try to change everything at once, it may feel like nothing is improving.

Summary in Russian:

Проанализируйте, почему вы меняетесь. Дайте обещание самому себе. Отпустите прошлое Реалистичные ожидания.


Article in English: Change the prefix of that word to every letter in the alphabet. For example, if you needed to find a word that rhymes with, "fog," start at A and go "aog, bog, cog, dog, eog, ... zog," until you reach Z.  Write down every word that is real, such as "bog," "cog," and "dog" and only select the most interesting choices. If one doesn't work, alter the first line to serve the poem or song. When going through the alphabet, inserting an R or an L into short words will often make another word. So if you were looking for a rhyme with cat, you could find bat as well as brat; fat, as well as flat and frat. It's a trick of the trade. Use other multi-letter prefixes you know to build more complicated words with which to rhyme. First letters won't always cut it. For example, "frog" and "clog" are real words that rhyme with bog. Try multisyllabic words like "bullfrog" or "epilogue." If no word works, consider changing the keyword to a synonym of that word, or abandoning your rhyme scheme for a line or two. For example, you could substitute "mist" for "fog," but only use rhymes to improve the poem or song, never to rhyme for the sake of rhyming. Hard rhymes, sometimes called true rhymes, "sound" right to our ear because of identical vowel and consonant combinations. "Moon" and "spoon" are hard rhymes because of the long "o" sound and the "n." Slant rhymes are rhymes in which either the vowel or the consonant in similar, creating a kind of echo of the rhyme, and giving you all kinds of possibilities. "Moon" could be slant rhymed with "on" or "schooner" or "groom" or even "gong". Slant rhymes offer complexity and surprise to a regular series of hard rhymes. It's worth it to invest in a good rhyming dictionary to consult. It's not cheating to use a dictionary for rhyming just as it isn't cheating to use a thesaurus while writing. Studying up on good rhymes will also build your vocabulary, giving you a larger collection of words to use in future songs, poems, or freestyles. Rhyming is a technique that writers and musicians can...

Article in English: Change your sleeping habits so that each day is the same -- even on weekends. The best way to do this is to figure out what time you need to be up for work or school, then calculate backwards to ensure that you'll get enough hours of sleep. This will give you your bedtime and wake-up time.  For example, you may need to get up at 6:00 a.m. to be at work by 8:00 a.m. To get 7-9 hours of sleep, you'd need to set your bedtime sometime between 9:00 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. If you need to get used to going to bed earlier, it's best to do so in 15-30 minute intervals. Let your body get used to the earlier bedtime before you set it another 15-30 minutes earlier.  This trains your brain to know when to go to sleep so that you don't lie in bed tossing and turning. This wrecks your sleep schedule, making it harder to get the good sleep you need. Do your best to stick to the same sleep schedule during the weekend as you need during your work week. Over time, this will have you feeling well-rested.  At first, you may want to schedule early morning activities on your weekend days so that you have an incentive to rise early. For example, make a plan with a friend or partner to go on an early morning hike. Don't plan any late-night events on Friday or Saturday while you're trying to establish your sleep schedule. After you establish your sleep schedule, you can occasionally sleep in for 1-2 hours without disturbing your sleep schedule.  It can take weeks to establish your sleep schedule, depending on your current sleep and wake cycle. Plan to adjust your bedtime by just 15-30 minutes at a time. Sleep hours can vary depending on your age. Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep each night, while teenagers require 8-11 hours each night. Children should get 10-13 hours of sleep each night. Young children also require naps. For example, a 2-year-old should nap for 1-2 hours, while a 1-year-old should nap for up to 4 hours, spread throughout the day.

Article in English: Changes in a household can cause stress that triggers a cat's insecurity, leading him to spray to claim his space. If your cat has been spraying, establishing a routine can reduce his stress and eliminate spraying.  Feed your cat at the same time each day, and keep his litter box, bed, and toys in the same areas.  If you have company, put your cat in a separate room. This is especially important if your visitors have cats of their own whose scents may be transmitted via their clothing. This can trigger stress, and in turn spraying.  Certain pheromone sprays, available at most pet stores, are designed to calm cats. If you know a big change is coming, such as a new household member or pet, investing in one of these sprays can help cats transition. If you live in a multiple cat household, spraying is often a result of a cat's territorial nature. Making sure all your cats have adequate space can reduce spraying.  Provide multiple perches. Cats love to be up high to observe. You can either clear a window sill or space on a bookshelf or purchase cat condos/cat trees from local pet stores.  Have multiple sources of food, water, scratching posts, and toys available.  Provide more than one litter box. Although spraying is different from urinating, limited litter box space can trigger territorial responses like spraying. Invest in more than one litter box, and scoop both daily. Repeated spraying often comes in response to the scent of a cat's urine, especially in multiple cat households. Pet odors needs to be neutralized in order to stop recurrence.  Anything that can be washed in a washing machine should be, using standard detergent.  A concoction made from 50% water and 50% white vinegar can be placed in a spray bottle and squirted onto surfaces where a cat has sprayed. This neutralizes the odor and discourages future spraying.  Local pet stores, branches of Petco, and even some supermarkets and department stores sell cleaners laced with synthetic pheromones and certain enzymes that remove odors that encourage...

Article in English: Changes in the condition or appearance of a guinea pig's eyes are often an indication of infection.  Conjunctivitis (pink eye), for instance, which is a bacterial eye infection, tends to cause redness and inflammation on the eyelid and surrounding the eye, and can cause oozing or dripping of fluid from the eye. While ear infections are less common than eye infections in guinea pigs, check the ears for pus or other discharge.  Also, if your guinea pig appears to be going deaf, is constantly scratching its ears, is walking with a tilt or imbalance, or is walking in circles or rolling, you may be dealing with an ear infection. Guinea pig teeth grow constantly and are meant to be kept worn down to the proper length by the roughage they eat.  Due to heredity, improper diet, or another cause, some guinea pigs will end up with teeth that are too long and/or misaligned, which is known as malocclusion.  Malocclusion, in turn, can make eating difficult or even impossible, leading to a host of problems, or cause bleeding and possibly infections. If your guinea pig starts eating less than normal, start drooling far more than usual (sometimes called “the slobbers”), or is bleeding from the mouth, have it checked for malocclusion.  Most cases can be treated by filing or cutting down the teeth. Pneumonia is the most common cause of death in pet guinea pigs and is usually caused by a bacterial infection.  Treatment can be a challenge due to guinea pigs' intolerance for certain antibiotics, but early detection is the best way to increase the likelihood of recovery. Watch for unusual oozing or discharge from the nose; sneezing; difficulty breathing or wheezing; fever; weight loss; loss of appetite; change in attitude (depression); inflamed, crusty, or dull and sunken eyes; or lethargy.  Generally speaking, pneumonia should be ruled out any time your guinea pig displays common signs of illness. Your guinea pig's waste can tell you a good deal about its overall health.  A lack of frequent urine or stool production is an...

Article in English: Changes in your living situation or even your sleep environment could lead to sleep problems. Did you just move into a new home? Are you sleeping in a new room, or with a new partner? Are you sleeping on a new mattress or pillow? These types of shifts, even if they are small, can affect your level of anxiety or stress. This will then impact your ability to get a good night's sleep. If you think environmental problem are keeping you awake, think about adjusting your mattress with a mattress pad to make it more comfortable. Or keep an item from your old room in your new room. Create a sense of calm and security in your sleep environment to help you go to sleep. Working a different work shift or a rotating shift can wreak havoc on your sleep schedule, especially if you rotate shifts on a regular basis.  Counteract shift work by adding 30 minute naps to your sleep schedule and lengthening the amount of time you allot for sleep. You should also use caffeine only during the first part of your shift to promote alertness at night and restfulness during the day. Try to minimize the number of shift changes you do to give your body's internal clock more time to adjust to a new work schedule. You may want to also talk to your doctor about a prescription for short-acting sleeping pills to help you sleep during the day. Adjusting to a new time zone can take several days or even a week. Eastward travel generally causes more severe jet lag than westward travel, as traveling east requires you to shorten the day and your internal clock can better adjust to a longer day than a shorter day.  Decrease your exposure to light at bedtime and increase your exposure to light at wake time once you arrive. Spend a lot of time outdoors so your body gets used to the light cues in the new time zone. Adjust your internal clock by getting a good amount of sleep 2-3 days prior to the trip. If you are traveling west, make minor changes to your sleep schedule by delaying your normal bedtime and wake time progressively by 20-30 minute intervals....

Article in English: Changes to your hamster’s skin can be indicative of health problems. In particular, look for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, and abscesses.  Red, flakey skin can be a sign of an infection or of other skin diseases. Check for dehydration by lifting the loose skin (the scruff) over the hamster's shoulders. Let go and it should snap straight back into place — this is normal. If the hamster is dehydrated the skin "tents" or stays in a peak. This is a serious sign and you should get the hamster checked by a vet. Your hamster may scratch more when she has a skin problem. This can help tip you off to the fact that one exists. However, it can also cause infection if the hamster is picking at her skin. Normally, a hamster’s fur should be be full and shiny. As hamsters age, their fur will thin. This is normal. However, if your hamster starts to lose fur all at once, he might be sick. Wet, matted fur around the hamster’s belly and tail can be signs of an infection. In particular, look for a runny nose, red or inflamed eyes, and puffy cheeks.  Hamsters often get a runny nose when sick, and are particularly vulnerable to catching colds. These are often not the most deadly of sicknesses, but if they persist, see a veterinarian. Your hamster has pouches in his cheeks to carry food around. If you notice that these pouches look full for a long time, it may be that they are infected.

Article in English: Changing a behavior you have cultivated overtime takes a lot of time and repetition. Remember that change is a process that is not always linear. Don't be afraid to go back to the beginning and re-assess your behavior. At the same time, don't be hard on yourself if you find yourself unsuccessful on your first attempt. The more you practice and work through your passive aggressive tendencies, the more likely you are to successfully change your behavior. If you find yourself getting off track in your attempts to change passive-aggressive behavior, take a moment to pause and reflect on what is happening.  Ask yourself:  Can you identify the reasons why you are taking steps backward? Do you need to pause and take a different approach at changing that specific behavior? Is there an underlying feeling or emotional response you have not recognized or worked through yet? Once you understand what is bothering you, then you can start to speak up for yourself and say what you mean. Practice what you would say to find the right words without being in the heat of the moment. Hear how you're coming across. You can be forceful and direct without having to hurt the other person. Take the blame out of your words and communicate your feelings in a positive manner. Opening yourself up in this way may make you feel more vulnerable in the beginning but you'll gain confidence as you progress.  For example, you may be annoyed if someone at work because he always takes the last cup of coffee without starting a new pot for others.  Instead of being angry but keeping quiet until it builds into an incident, speak your mind.  Say, "I see that you're getting the last cup of coffee.  Would you mind starting a fresh pot if you get the last cup so that the rest of us can drink coffee on our break as well? Thank you!" At home, you can be clear with your expectations for your significant other.  If your partner is supposed to do the dishes after dinner and doesn't, try saying "I know that you are tired after working all day, but we agreed...

Article in English: Changing doctors is a serious decision. Sometimes, the decision to switch is out of necessity. For example, if you or your doctor is moving out of the area, then it may be necessary to find a new doctor. Unfortunately, sometimes negligence or poor performance on behalf of your current doctor may prompt the desire to switch. You should consider finding a new doctor if any of the following occur:  The doctor dismisses your complaints, especially if you're older. Elderly patients frequently have doctors who overlook or ignore ailments by simply blaming age.  The doctor orders tests or lab work without explaining their reasons.  Your doctor interrupts you frequently and does not interact with you for very long during office visits.  Your doctor prescribes medication or orders surgeries and procedures without knowing your medical history or with little prior discussion  If your doctor has been involved in any medical malpractice allegations, it might be a good idea to switch. If you have a specific condition, and your doctor is not a specialist in that area, you need to find a new doctor. When switching doctors, you need to decide whether your reasons for leaving are worth explaining.   If you're leaving your doctor because you were unhappy with his or her services, it's okay to express this. Doctors do like to keep patients happy and their reputation intact, so feedback may help their performance in the future. However, many people are not comfortable with face-to-face confrontation. You could consider writing a letter and mailing it to your doctor's office.  If you feel uncomfortable with your current doctor for any reason, it is acceptable to leave without explanation. Doctors are generally busy and may not notice a missing patient, especially if your visits are infrequent. Sometimes, switching doctors is not a result of a bad relationship between doctor and patient. If you and your doctor are on good terms, there's no better source to ask for a referral to a new physician than your former doctor.   Chances are...

Article in English: Changing the partitions on your USB drive will erase all of the data on it, so make sure everything important is saved to another location. This guide will use Ubuntu, which comes with GParted Partition Editor already installed. If your Linux distribution doesn't have GParted installed, you can install it from gparted.org/ or your distribution's package manager. In Ubuntu, open the Dash and type "gparted," or click "System" → "Administration" → "GParted Partition Editor." You can identify your USB drive by the size. Make sure you don't proceed with your hard drive selected, or you could lose all of your data. Right-click the visual display of the USB drive and select "Unmount" to deactivate it and prepare it for partitioning. This will delete the current partition on the USB drive. This will open the "Create new Partition" window. Use the slider or the text fields to set the size of your first partition. Make sure to leave enough space for additional partitions. The partition labels will be the easiest way to differentiate between your partitions. If you intend to use the drive with just Linux, select "ext2." If you want to boot Windows from the first partition select "ntfs" (this will only work on the first partition on the drive). To use the partition for general storage between different computers, select "fat32" or "exfat." This will create the new partition from the unallocated space. You can continue to create new partitions from the unallocated space that remains after creating the other partitions. Click "Apply" to confirm. All of your changes will be applied to the USB drive. This may take a little while to complete. You'll be able to access all of the partitions as if they were individual USB drives.

Article in English: Changing the type of covering you have on your windows can improve the feel of your room. Many of the newer types of window treatments are designed to conserve energy and keep the cold or heat out without sacrificing on style. These look similar to pleated blinds but contain cells that conserve heat in your home. They come in a variety of colors and styles, and look softer and better made than vinyl blinds. These are made with a heavy-duty material that keeps the temperature in your room steady. Although the backing (the part facing outside) tends to be a rather dull color, the front of the curtains come in a huge range of color and textures. Look at drapes and window valances made out of soft, natural fibers like cotton, silk or wool. You can use energy efficient shades to block the light out, and then frame them with soft valances and drapes to add a bit more style to your room. Bamboo or linen weaves can give it an earthy look. These options may be a little more expensive than some of the choices above but are long lasting and beautiful – as well as green! You can get colored curtains, as long as they aren't hot pink or any bright color. Getting a light color for curtains will make your room feel more open because you can see through the window with a sheer one. If they are opened or closed they will not make a difference.

Article in English: Changing your appearance can give you a boost in confidence and help you out of an appearance rut. It can also be fun!  Change your hairstyle. Cut it, part it differently, give it highlights or dye it pink. Give yourself dark smokey eyes or wear bright red lipstick. Go for a free makeover. Make your way to the makeup counter of your local department store and ask for some assistance trying new colors. If you always wear shades of plum, tell the sales associate to break out the peach tones for a completely new look. You'll go home with a fab new take on your face.  Picking out a new item of clothing can change your entire wardrobe: a new shirt, skirt, or even a scarf. Clothes that you feel comfortable in are better than clothes that may be the height of "fashion" but which you don't enjoy wearing. Your uncomfortableness with yourself will show. Check that your clothes fit correctly. It's hard to be comfortable when your jeans dig in too tightly at your waist, or your bra leaves marks on your skin. Giving yourself some time alone to do something relaxing can give you a boost in self-esteem and also help you relax, which in turn helps keep up your positivity.  Feel pretty all the way down to your feet with an at-home pedicure. Go as wild as you want! Wear a toe ring or two. Paint each nail a different color, use glitter or sample a shade that you're not quite ready to wear on your hands. Give your skin some extra special care. When you pamper yourself, it shows. So give yourself at-home facial for skin-smoothing results. Healthiness is not only considered attractive, but it also means that your mind is healthy, too! It can help with depression and with keeping you from getting sick. It's hard to feel pretty when you've got a cold.  Sleep is a huge factor in healthiness. Too little sleep strains the nervous system and can make you more susceptible to depression and illness.

Article in English: Changing your body temperature can alter your perception of time. Raising your temperature can make time seem to go faster, while lowering your temperature can make time go slower. Crank up the temperature in a room so that you get hot and you may find time slipping by more quickly., Certain smells may help you perceive time differently. Smells like baby powder change your perception by making time seem to go more quickly. The smell of coffee can often make time seem like it’s going more slowly. Sprinkle baby powder on your skin or onto a cloth and take a big sniff. Looking at the time will only make you more aware of how slowly time is passing. Cover up every clock in your house so that you can’t constantly check the time. Depriving someone of some of their senses, such as being placed in an isolation chamber that eliminates light and sound, may compress how they sense the passage of time. Time will seem to speed up, despite the conditions being unpleasant. Many cities have isolation tank and float tank centers. Search online for one near you.

Article in English: Changing your normal routines and settings or taking yourself out of your norm completely can help you get to know yourself better.  Take a solo trip to a foreign country or place. Solo travel is a great way to place yourself in a situation where you are navigating a new, different environment and experiencing being alone for an extended period. You will also have to develop strong independence and self-reliance, as well as an openness to the different attitudes and customs of others.  If you aren't ready for drastic alone time in a foreign country, going for a short walk around your neighbourhood alone or minimizing the distractions you have access to in your home and daily life can give help you embrace change. Even small shifts in your normal routine can allow you to challenge yourself and get to know yourself better. Cultivating a hobby you can enjoy alone or an activity that involves just you is a good way to get used to your own company and appreciate it. Solo activities like fishing, knitting, surfing, writing, reading, or even meditation will deepen your understanding of yourself and create meaningful alone time. It will also help you cultivate self-love, an important factor to being your own best friend. We have been conditioned to enjoy ourselves in the company of others, but not in the company of ourselves. So it's important to learn how to have fun alone, whether it's movie and dinner or live music and a beer.  A solo date night out will help you positively enjoy your own company. Without the distraction of someone else sitting across from you, you may find you pay more attention to the movie or the band, or that you are more aware of your own opinions and perspectives on the environment around you. If you don’t want to go out on your own at night, try doing something during the day, such as window shopping, antiquing, or sightseeing.

Article in English: Changing your personality is hard work. But the brain is plastic and it is doable. Start by observing the extroverts around you. Notice how there are different kinds and how they thrive in different settings. Some might be on top of their game in small groups while others are on top of their game in large crowds. Some might even get inhibited in certain situations! Also take the time to note what it is that you think makes them extroverted. Remember this: some extroverts are naturally shy. Just because a person is shy doesn't mean they don't get their energy from others. Are you looking to be more confident? Outgoing? What other traits aside from extroversion are these people showcasing that you'd like to emulate? This is a nice way of saying "fake it." But you're not faking it -- you're just performing. Now that you've spent some time observing other extroverts, mimic them. When you're in a social situation, put on your extroverted hat. Robert de Niro, Barbara Walters, David Letterman -- they're all introverts. They get up there and do it. And then they go home. Start small in both task and time. Take 15 minutes out of your day to be around people. Get out of your comfort zone; do something small that makes you a bit uncomfortable. Knock on your neighbor's door and introduce yourself. After the first one, the second one will seem a lot easier. The third one will be cake. As you get comfortable with being extroverted for that chunk of time, make it bigger. Next week, spend an hour going around to everyone in your building. When you are at the bus stop, ask the person you are standing next to for the time and follow it up with some other comment on the situation. Get the cashier at the grocery store to smile. The tiny things will add up. The fact of the matter is that you cannot be extroverted when you are by yourself. Kinda part of the definition. So get around people. Whether it is joining the circle around the watercooler or accepting the invitation to Julie's baby shower, go. You'll never grow and get...

Article in English: Changing your study room can actually improve your retention of the material. Studies have shown that the brain can make patterns between the things you already know and new data. The more you are asked to recall the information before the test, the more likely you are to recall it during the test. Search for the topic and then “quiz” or “test” and time a test exam. If you can’t find any, use your textbook or team up with a friend and come up with 10 questions for each other to answer. Try to look forward to a challenge, like a test, rather than shying away from it. Give yourself a treat, like a favorite snack or YouTube video before you take the test. You will get satisfaction from narrowing your choices down. Your grades will be compared to others’ grades, so you must always be well above average on your test. Plan to study harder in any class with a curve, since earning a near-perfect score is the only way to guarantee an A on a test. If your course is advanced, getting an A will be more challenging, since the majority of the students are interested in the material.

Article in English: Changing your thoughts in order to change your feelings and behaviors is a key component of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is a common type of therapy for treating stealing and kleptomania. Monitor your automatic thoughts, and you can change your stealing behaviors.  Think about the thoughts that arise when you are considering stealing something. For example you may think, “I really want that,” or, “I will get away with it.”   Think about who it benefits. Does it only benefit you when you steal? Or your family, friends, or someone else? And in what way does it benefit you or others? If you feel that some of your compulsion to steal is about validating your position or feeling secure within your group of friends or family by "buying" their affection or rewarding their attention with items, then you'll need to start seeing these drives for the insecurity within you that they represent. Once you’ve identified your thinking patterns you can begin thinking of alternative thoughts. This includes paying attention to your negative thoughts that reinforce your stealing behaviors, and actively changing your thought process in the moment. For example, if you find yourself thinking, “I really want that ring, so I’ll steal it,” instead think, “I want that ring, but it is wrong to steal so I will focus on saving my money instead.” on the bigger picture. When you feel stronger about what is compelling you to steal and what you intend to do about it, spend some time reflecting over what you have been doing and where this is headed in all likelihood. Time for reflection is important because it's likely that you feel as if your life lacks purpose, or perhaps you feel as if you have no control over aspects of your life. For some people, stealing is a form of passive rebellion against situations that make them feel powerless. Reflecting on these bigger picture concerns will help you to start developing your own goals for your life and will help you to set boundaries on poor behaviors that don't help you reach your...

Article in English: Channel your inner Abe Lincoln by trimming off the mustache completely and leaving the rest.  This is easiest with a beard trimmer. Follow all the above steps for trimming and then remove the mustache with the trimmer. Maintain by shaving your upper lip regularly with a razor. If you can't, at least keep it significantly shorter with the trimmer. Trim your sideburns, leaving only a tough-looking patch around your mouth.  Imagine a line that runs from the sides of your nose down the corner of your lips and shave everything between that line and your ear, leaving the hair around the chin and the mustache. Experiment with leaving different lengths of sideburn, or, for a style called the fu-manchu, removing the hair under the bottom lip and the chin. This is essentially the opposite of the goatee, leave the sideburns long and remove the mustache, chin, and neck beard. Also try leaving the mustache for a variation on the chinstrap. Take off the trim guard or very carefully use scissors to cut (almost) everything off. You want to create an all-over, very short beard. This is a rugged, masculine look. This effect is more noticeable if you have dark hair (especially if you have pale skin). A soul patch is a tiny, short beard under your lower lip. This look is favored by jazz musicians and best accompanied by a cool pair of shades. Remain clean-shaven, leaving only a small downward-facing triangle of hair that extends from your lower lip to a spot above your chin. Try different lengths with this look. A short soul patch can be barely-noticeable, while a longer one can create an air of mystery. This moustache is famously associated with director John Waters. Shave your beard down to just a mustache. Trim your mustache using a pair of clippers and a very short guard. Then, with a safety razor, shave your mustache except for the portion just above your upper lip. You'll be chasing girls down the street in no time! Try out different lengths and styles. It'll always grow back. If you plan on shaving your beard off...

Article in English: Channel your inner Spock and try to have conversations that express absolutely nothing about how you are feeling. For example, if you're out to dinner and someone asks how your burger is, tell them it is medium rare and a little greasy. Do not say it is delicious or gross, even if it is. Just state the facts. If you are asked a question about how you're feeling or something that can't be answered with facts, your best bet is to avoid the question by asking a question back. You can also try giving a vague or ambiguous response. Watch the pace and pitch of your words. Raising your pitch can be an indication of excitement or agitation. Dropping your pitch and speaking more slowly can seem like you're uncertain or upset. Try to speak as though you are reading an instruction manual out loud. Dull, informative and without originality will go a long way to keeping your conversations low-key. Many words express emotions. Some are very obvious, while others express more subtle emotions. While it's obvious you don't want to say you're sad or happy, you also should not say you're determined, calm or indecisive. These words express just as much of your emotional state. Avoid using adjectives to describe words that will reveal your feelings. Don't say a movie was exciting or romantic. Instead, describe the film as action-packed or dramatic.

Article in English: Char cloth won't burn hot enough to light a log all by itself. Just like any fire, you'll need tinder (dry grass, bark shavings, newspaper), kindling (twigs and small branches), and of course the logs themselves. Char cloth makes it easy to start this chain and light the tinder. Char cloth is most useful during damp weather, when tinder is more difficult to light. . Find a fire pit or a large dirt area cleared of all vegetation. Avoid areas with overhanging branches. Stack your kindling, then the wood on top of it, allowing plenty of room for oxygen. Here are a couple straightforward methods:  For cooking: Arrange a "teepee" of vertical kindling, then a larger teepee of firewood around it. For a long-lasting fire: Lay the kindling criss-cross, then criss-cross the firewood over the kindling. Place one square of char cloth on top of a bundle of tinder. Be ready to pick up the tinder and shove it underneath the kindling once it's alight. You can light char cloth with a flint and steel or other portable sparking device (including a lighter that's run out of fluid). As soon as a spark lands on it and forms a glowing red patch, you're good to go. There are two common ways to aim the spark:  Hold the flint directly over the cloth, angled downward. Run the steel downward across the flint so sparks land on the cloth.  Or hold the cloth against a sharp edge of the flint. Run the steel along this edge. Blow on the glowing char cloth to get the heat to spread across it. Pick up the tinder bundle and gently push the sides up and over the cloth, until they start burning. As soon as the tinder starts burning, place it and the char cloth underneath the kindling. The fire should now spread to the kindling, then the wood.

Article in English: Characteristics of being shy can be manifested in different ways under different circumstances for each individual. Knowing what situations cause your feelings of shyness can help you address the symptoms of shyness when they occur:  Being hesitant to speak up in social situations Mumbling or talking softly Avoiding social gatherings Being overly talkative due to nervousness. Understanding that almost everyone feels shy at some point can help you overcome your own feelings of shyness. It is natural to be nervous under uncertain circumstances. When you can mentally prepare for a situation it is less likely to make you nervous and shy because you know what to expect. Plan ahead and you’ll be ready to take on challenges as they are no longer unknowns. If you are constantly saying negative things about yourself in your head, then you will have an extremely hard time ever feeling confident. Even though it isn’t true, telling yourself phrases like “I’m just socially awkward” or “Nobody will ever like me, I’m too weird” will make you believe you are not worthy of attention from a girl. Instead create a mantra that builds you up:  “I’m awesome!” “I like talking to everyone!” “I am going to meet new people today.” Many times shyness is a result of perceived perceptions. People think that others see them a certain way and make that their reality, when in fact, no one is having the thoughts you believe they are. Take people for their word and don’t worry about what someone might be thinking. Instead of centering the conversation around you, talk to and about other people. Avoid starting sentences with “I” and talk about the other person’s interests instead. If you’re not thinking about yourself, it is less likely you will find yourself feeling shy! When you are happy and enjoying yourself it is much less likely that you will feel shy. Let yourself have fun and don’t be afraid to relax.

Article in English: Characteristics should include weights, grades and measurements of components. The color grade of the gemstone should be determined by using comparison gemstones. If any atypical treatments were conducted on your gemstone or if your gemstone is untreated, this should be noted on the appraisal.   The value depends on whether you want to insure your jewelry for its actual cash value, its replacement value or its agreed value.  Cash value is the value of your jewelry at today’s market rate, not at the purchase price. Replacement value means the insurer will pay you a specific amount according to its current market value at the time of the loss. Agreed value means that you and your insurer settle on a specific value that you will receive in the event of a loss.  If your appraisal is for an insurer, then your appraiser should use one of the following forms from the Jewelry Insurance Standards Organization:  JISO 805—Jewelry Sales Receipt for Insurance Purposes. This form is used when you are purchasing jewelry and can be completed by the retailer who sold the jewelry to you. JISO 806—Jewelry Document for Insurance Purposes. This form is used when you’re obtaining a second appraisal. JISO 78—Jewelry Insurance Appraisal—Single Item. This form must be completed by a Certified Insurance Appraiser and is a highly detailed description of the item. JISO 79—Jewelry Insurance Appraisal—Multiple Items. This form is also completed by a Certified Insurance Appraiser and is used for the valuation of multiple items of jewelry.

Article in English: Charles Darwin (1872) was the first to suggest that the facial expressions of certain emotions were universal. Studies in his time were inconclusive; however, research continued on the subject, and in the 1960s Silvan Tomkins conducted the first study demonstrating that facial expressions are in fact reliably associated certain emotional states. Studies have shown that when emotions are spontaneously aroused, congenitally blind individuals produce the same facial expressions as sighted individuals do. In addition, facial expressions considered to be universal in humans have also been observed in non-human primates, particularly chimpanzees. A face expressing happiness or joy will feature a smile (corners of the mouth drawn up and back) with some teeth exposed, and a wrinkle runs from the outer nose to the outer corners of the lip. The cheeks are raised, and the lower eyelids are tense or wrinkled. The narrowing of the eyelids causes “crow’s feet” wrinkles at the outer corners of the eyes. A face that is smiling but does not involve the muscles in the eyes indicates a fake smile or polite smile that is not actual happiness or joy. A face showing sadness has the eyebrows drawn in and up, the skin below the eyebrows is triangulated with the inner corner up, and the corners of the lips are turned down. The jaw comes up and the bottom lip pouts out. Studies show that this emotion is the hardest expression to fake. A face showing contempt, or hate, has one corner of the mouth rising, like a sort of half-smile which is actually a sneer. A disgusted face has the eyebrows downcast, but the lower eyelid raised (causing the eyes to narrow), the cheeks are raised and the nose is scrunched. The upper lip is also raised or curled upward. A surprised face features the eyebrows raised up and curved. The skin below the brow is stretched and there are horizontal wrinkles across the forehead. The eyelids are so wide open that the whites are showing above and/or below the pupils. The jaw is dropped and teeth are slightly parted,...

Article in English: Chasing after or forcing an animal to approach you if it barks, whinnies, or hisses at you can cause you harm and traumatize the animal. The same goes for attempts to claw, kick, or bite you. Remove yourself from the situation to let the animal calm down.  Consider putting yourself at the level of the animal to help calm it. Kneel down to smaller animals such as dogs, cats, rabbits, or turtles. Avoid putting your face directly in front of an animal’s face, which may stress it and cause you harm.  Keep in mind that animals respond to you the way you treat them. Animals are much more sensitive to behaviors and smells than humans. No matter what type of animal—horses, cats, dogs, turtles, or birds—approach them slowly and quietly to avoid scaring them or causing them undue stress.  Avoid approaching an animal from its blind spots, which can startle it. This may traumatize the animal or could wind up in an injury for you. Let dogs, cats, and other animals sniff you before you handle it. Extend your hand and let the animal smell you. It will decide if you can approach it more closely from here. Consider washing your hands if you are touching multiple animals as some pets may not like the smell of another species. Give the animal a few seconds or minutes to approach you. Some animals may be naturally timid and need a little while to get used to your presence. Approaching them before an animal shows it wants your attention can cause it stress. If your pet approaches you for attention or you want give her some love by picking her up, move calmly and slowly towards her. If her body seems relaxed, pick her up using correct methods to support her body and prevent harm.  Place your hands under the animal’s legs or on the legs and belly. This provides a stable base so she feels safe. You can also gently move your arms underneath your animal if she is larger. Remember to stay calm and be patient so that you don’t startle your animal. If the animal shows any signs of not wanting to be picked up, allow it to go free and try...

Article in English: Chat about your hobbies or ask what she has gotten up to over the weekend. She may immediately volunteer some information about whether she is single or not. She will most likely tell you if she has plans with her significant other. This is more casual than a formal date but still may be viewed as one. If she hesitates, it may be because she is not single. Better yet, she may say yes because she is single and views it as a date. Make sure you know whether she thinks that it is a date or just something between friends. You can casually ask her, “is this cool with your boyfriend?” She may laugh if she’s single or appreciate how respectful and considerate you are but either way, it can put you in her good graces. While she may recoil, breaking the touch barrier establishes a connection and certain dynamic. She may naturally be flirty or very self-conscious, in any scenario apologize if she recoils. She may tell you exactly why she is not comfortable, which may include that she is not single. Touching lets her know that you want to get close to her.  Touch her casually after a joke or after complimenting her hair or outfit.  You may touch her lower back if escorting her through a door or elevator. You may also read over her shoulder if she is classmate or coworker. While this may seem innocent, subconsciously she will know that you’re trying to get closer to her. If you are in a social setting and she has her arms crossed and does not maintain eye contact, she may not be interested in having a conversation with you. In contrast, if she is touching your arm or leg during the conversation, it is a good sign that she is engaged in the conversation. ” If she seems overly talkative, you may be able to surmise that she is open, friendly, and that she has a busy schedule because she is single. For example, if she never mentions a boyfriend but tells you that she goes to yoga every day, takes French lessons, and she is still looking for more activities, there is a good chance that she is single. If you are obviously...

Article in English: Chatroulette is a video-based chat service, so you won't be able to get much use out of it without the right gear and accessories. Make sure that your computer has a working webcam, that the latest version of Flash is installed on your computer, and that your speakers are working. If you'd like to talk, make sure your microphone is working, as well. This isn't essential, as text chat is also possible. At first, Chatroulette allowed absolutely anyone at all to use the site anonymously. However, to curtail malicious misuse, Chatroulette now requires users to sign up with a free account before using the site's features. Making an account requires choosing a username and specifying an email address and password for the account to be associated with. To make an account, visit www.chatroulette.com (don't worry, you won't be exposed to anything graphic yet). Click the "Start" button in the top left of the window and you'll receive a pop-up prompting you to create an account. On the main Chatroulette screen, you should see two black squares on the left side of the screen. When you use Chatroulette, the bottom square will display your webcam feed, while the top square will display your partner's. Click the "Preview your webcam" button on the bottom square to activate your computer's webcam. If it is functioning correctly, you should see whatever is in front of its lens. Usually, this is your own gorgeous face! When you preview your webcam you may receive a pop-up prompt asking for your permission to activate the webcam. In this case, simply click "Ok" or "Accept" or the equivalent option to turn your webcam on.

Article in English: Cheap locks can easily be cut open, especially ones from 99p or dollar stores and some underground sports shops. (And thieves know the difference.) You can find better locks at a bike shop or a general sporting goods store. Using at least two good quality locks of different types (listed below) will deter thieves that only have the tools to deal with one type, or who don't want to deal with the extra hassle. Also called D-locks, these inflexible loops affix the frame and/or wheels to a solid object. The smaller the U-lock, the harder it will be for a thief to lever it open with a jack or other tool.  For best security, pick a U-lock that is just barely large enough to fit over your rear wheel, frame, and the object you're locking the bike to.  While the space inside the U lock should be as small as possible, the U lock material itself should be thick and strong. Sufficiently thick chains (ideally 15mm links or more) are an excellent thief deterrent. On the other hand, they are much heavier than other options.  Chains are usually secured by a padlock, which can be the weakest link. Use as thick a padlock as possible to resist bolt cutter attacks. A short chain for locking one wheel of your bike to an object will be much lighter to carry around than a chain long enough for both wheels. In this case, you will need an additional lock (which is a good practice to adopt anyway). You can purchase a thick (20mm) cable lock that is somewhat harder to cut, but the best course of action is to use cable locks as additional thief deterrent, not stand alone security. Cable locks can also be used to secure less valuable bike attachments to the frame, such as a basket.

Article in English: Cheat Engine can access pieces of data stored in your computer's RAM, some of which pertains to in-game values. For example, if your game character's health status has a number attached to it (e.g., 100), the number "100" is considered a value. You can change values by using Cheat Engine to find them in your computer's RAM and then altering the listed value. Changing a value will allow you to do things like give yourself more items, increase your health, and so on. Any game which has some form of cheat protection or online multiplayer functionality won't work with Cheat Engine, and attempting to use Cheat Engine will typically result in your account or profile being banned from online play.  If you are somehow able to use Cheat Engine to obtain resources which are usually purchased with real money, you may be prosecuted for theft. Cheat Engine is a high-profile piece of software, so most games have some form of protection against it. Older singleplayer games and some Steam singleplayer games should work with Cheat Engine, though the games in question must have some on-screen value that you can view and change. Many online flash games which don't have a community link (e.g., no multiplayer and no high score) are also compatible with Cheat Engine.

Article in English: Cheating may only be an isolated event that can be overcome. Long term relationships, such as marriages or partnerships involving children, might be able to be salvaged.   Air your feelings to your partner. Tell him/her how the cheating made you feel. Don't be a "cheap forgiver". Don't allow your feelings of fear about losing your partner overshadow your pain and anger. Don't forgive before you've had the time to process through anger and other emotions. Both partners need to share responsibility in the scenario. The cheater must 100% acknowledge he/she was in the wrong. The hurt party must also acknowledged that he/she may have fostered feelings of loneliness that led to cheating. Establish new rules and respect for each other. Ignore the saying "Once a cheater, always a cheater". Cheating may be an isolated event that the cheater feels extremely guilty about. It is important to accept this and try not to hold onto something you know won't work. By doing so, you will no longer be emotionally invested in the past.   Accepting the end of the relationship involves letting go of the fear of being alone. To let go of the fear of being alone, tell yourself all of the reasons why the relationship was not good for you. Surround yourself with your support network: friends, family, and religious leaders. By acknowledging the end of a relationship, you are no longer letting feelings of pain and anger destroy your present and future. It is the first step in moving on. You have to go through the process of separating your life from that of the cheater. If you are married, take off your wedding ring and pack away your (former) spouse’s things. Having the separation period last too long can prolong the pain of getting over infidelity. Once you are free from the anguish of a bad relationship, you can re-discover your happiness and move towards the future.   Ask yourself why you are prolonging the process if you find you are stalling a divorce, separation or breakup. Allow yourself to emotionally distance yourself from the...

Article in English: Check ahead with your airline to see if you can snag a comfortable seat on the flight. Even within the same class and fare, some seats are far superior to others. Consider an aisle or exit row seat for added legroom, or a window if you want to lean against the wall and sleep. Try to avoid seats near the toilets/lavatories, as other passengers will be accessing these regularly.  Bulkhead seats are also a good option if you need extra legroom. These are seats positioned behind dividing walls, screens, or curtains, with no other seats directly in front of them. Remember to never choose an exit row seat if you will have an infant or small child with you, since this could make it more difficult for you to open the exit door in case of an emergency. Some airlines allow you to pay a little extra to get a better seat, even if you aren’t going first class or business class. These options may have names like “Economy Plus” or “Even More Space.” If you’re overwhelmed with luggage, getting comfortable on the plane may be difficult. Check with your airline ahead of time to find out about their check-through and carry-on policies, and bring only the absolute essentials onto the plane with you. One backpack is fine for the plane, and it is easier to find a place in the overhead bins or under the seat for a small backpack than for a larger roller bag.  Many airlines will allow you to bring one carry-on bag per passenger, plus a “personal item” such as a purse or diaper bag. Check with your airline to make sure your carry-on luggage meets their size and weight requirements. Wearing tight or uncomfortable clothing can make a long flight miserable. Dress in loose, cozy clothes and comfortable shoes, and make sure to bring at least one layer (like a sweater or zip-up hoodie) in case it gets cold on the plane. Compression socks or stockings can help improve circulation in your legs and prevent inflammation and blood clots when you have to sit in one position for hours at a time.

Article in English: Check daily during a severe whitefly infestation, and pluck off badly infested leaves. These have many white eggs and/or wingless nymphs ("crawlers") on the underside of the leaf. If severely infested, the leaf may be coated with a sticky or waxy substance produced by the feeding nymphs, or it may turn yellow and spotted. This method works best for small gardens where you can check each plant regularly. You can dislodge young whiteflies from the underside of leaves by spraying them with a hose. To catch the winged adults as well, use a hand-held vacuum cleaner to catch whiteflies when they are most sluggish, in the early morning or during cool weather. Put the vacuum cleaner bag inside an airtight plastic bag after capturing, and freeze it for 24 hours to kill the whiteflies before emptying in the trash.  This method is most helpful when the whiteflies are first noticed. If they have had a chance to lay eggs, these may remain on the leaf and start a new generation of many hundreds or thousands of whiteflies after hatching. If the infestation is minor, this method can help reduce the population of whiteflies to the point where natural predators will be able to keep the population in check. Add a layer of aluminum foil or reflective plastic mulch covering the ground. This can make it more difficult for adult whiteflies to locate host plants, reducing the amount of eggs successfully laid.  This step will require special water considerations. Plants surrounded by plastic mulch will need to have a drip irrigation system. Do not use mulch in hot weather, as it may overheat the plants. If a plant is severely infested, transfer it to a separate room or an outdoor area distant from other plants. Isolate all newly acquired plants for several days before introducing them to a location with other plants, and inspect the undersides of the leaves for whiteflies. As explained in the section on natural enemies, insecticide rarely works on whitefly populations, and may even kill the animals that feed on them. However, if the...

Article in English: Check eBay or retail outlets that carry the phone. Your iPhone must be unlocked to use the GoPhone SIM card. They're available at the AT&T store, eBay, Target, Best Buy, and many other retail electronics stores. The phone itself is not important—only the SIM card—so get the cheapest phone you can find. Make sure your GoPhone is powered down as well. With a SIM eject tool, or a simple paper clip, push it into the slot on the right side of the phone. The nano-SIM tray will pop out. Following the instructions listed here, trim the microSIM in your GoPhone so that it's nanoSIM-sized. Put the GoPhone SIM into the iPhone SIM slot, and close it back up. Test it to see if you can make a call (assuming you purchased a GoPhone with some minutes on the plan)  Find a Wi-Fi hotspot, and launch Safari on your Go-iPhone. Navigate to unlockit.co.nz, and tap Continue, then tap Custom APN. From the list of carriers, choose "AT&T (PAYG)" or your local carrier, whichever is appropriate. Tap Create Profile to create and download the APN file. At the prompt, choose "Install," and then "Replace." When you see the "Profile Installed" screen, restart your iPhone. When it's restarted, go to Settings, and disable Wi-Fi. Check the on the upper left of the iPhone screen, and it should say 4G/LTE. Re-enable your Wi-Fi settings.

Article in English: Check each square to see if it has a single square open. If it does, it's easy to fill in. Just figure out what number is missing from 1 to 9. For example, if a larger square has numbers 1-3 and 5-9, you know it's missing the number "4," which you can fill in. Run your finger down each row and column to see if any of them only have 1 square open. If a row does, figure out which number from 1 to 9 is missing in that row or column and fill it in. If a column has numbers 1-7 and 9, you know it's missing the number "8," which you can fill in. Look at a row of 3 large squares. Check for a number that's repeated 2 times in different squares. Run your fingers along the rows that contain that number. The third large square must contain the same number, but it can't be in 1 of the 2 rows you're tracing. It must be in the third row. Sometimes, 2 other numbers will be in that row, so you can easily fill in the number you're scanning. If "8" is repeated in 2 squares, look for that number in the third square. Run your finger down the rows with each "8," as you know the "8" can't be in those rows in the third large square. Once you've got the hang of scanning across just rows or columns, add the other direction as well. Take the previous example with a slight difference. When you get to the third square, it only has 1 number filled in in the open row. In that case, trace down the columns. See if the number you're trying to fill in is in 1 of the columns. In that case, you know it can't go in that column and must go in the other one. That is, if you see that you have a lot of one number on the board, it can help to start trying to fill in the rest of that number. Say you have a large number of 5s on the board. Use your scanning techniques to fill in as many 5s as you can.

Article in English: Check everywhere, even in places that are hidden from you view like under the floor mats and seats. Look for any traces of moisture or mildew. Use your hand to feel around in places you can't see. Make sure they are mold free and are not moist when you touch them.  Let the automobile sit in the sun with the windows rolled down to dry out. Brush away any loose mold from the upholstery. When the A/C is running, water condenses and attracts dust, spores, pollen, and other germs. This later forms fungi and causes a mildew smell that can be treated.  Use an odor remover spray to treat your car's A/C every year. Spray the odor remover into the A/C vents to eliminate odors caused by stagnant water, bacteria, and mildew.
