Article in English: To brainstorm and organize ideas for your project, make a mind map to stimulate new thoughts. Use a plain piece of paper, poster board, or whiteboard for your mind map and write the goal of your project in the middle. Write down related topics, subtopics, and relevant concepts around the goal, and branch out from them to create and follow different tangents. For instance, if your goal is to “provide a comprehensive account of the history of the fur trade in North America”, subtopics and tangents could include “relations with Natives”, “history of European fashion”, and “the cultural significance of fur”. If you are doing a group project, brainstorming things together will allow each group member to feed off of the ideas of others and gain new insight. Schedule a brainstorming session in a quiet place with few distractions. If you are working on a project on your own, group discussion with friends or colleagues can help you gain a new perspective on the topic you’re covering.  Remember to include everybody in any decision-making. Plan out the process of your research by using the gap filling brainstorming technique. To do this, identify where you are starting from in terms of your knowledge and resources (i.e. Point A), and identify where you want to go with your project (Point B). Make a list of all of the things missing between Point A and Point B and make a plan for filling in this gap. For instance, if Point A is starting a project about electric cars with limited knowledge on the topic, and Point B is completing a PowerPoint presentation about them, you can fill the gap by conducting research (online and in a library), outlining the history, technology, and possible future of electric cars,  and procuring pictures and news articles about them.

Article in English: To breed your female dog with a male dog, you will need to find her a suitable mate. Look for a male dog of the same breed who is healthy and has no genetic faults or issues. You should meet with the male dog’s owner beforehand or with the breeder and discuss the dog’s health and medical history.  You should also confirm the male dog’s age. Most breeds should mate when they are between one year to seven years old. Make sure you talk with your vet before you mate your female dog with a male dog. Your vet should clear your dog of any health issues or problems before you start the breeding process. Often, male dogs do better when they mate with a female dog on their territory or home area. You may discuss bringing your female dog to the male dog at the ideal breeding time with the male dog’s owner. Set a mating date based on your female dog’s heat cycle so the mating occurs when she is most fertile.  Do not mate your dog on her first heat cycle. Wait until she has had one to two heat cycles to mate her. This will ensure she is healthy enough for mating.  You may also arrange for two matings between the dogs, twenty-four or forty-eight hours apart. This can help to increase the likelihood of your dog getting pregnant. Once the breeding date is set, you should bring the female dog to the male dog in a stress-free environment. The male dog’s owner should set up a space that is clean and open for the breeding. If the female dog is in the right stage of her heat cycle, she should warm up to the male dog pretty quickly. She will show signs of attraction, and if the male dog follows suit, the breeding should occur rather naturally. If the mating is not successful, you may ask the male dog’s owner about next steps. Professional breeders may offer a free service or mating session next time to make up for the failed breeding.

Article in English: To bring the other person down to your level, have them sit on a bar-style stool. This will bring them closer to your height without making you have to bend over. Sitting in a chair may make them too short, but depending on the height difference, this could work better for you. Having both of you sit on the couch may be one of the easiest ways to overcome the height difference. If you are still much shorter than them, fold your legs under you to give you a little boost. Move closer to your significant other and give them a kiss. If you both are comfortable with it, sit in the taller one’s lap. This will naturally elevate you and bring your face closer to their face. You can do this at home or wherever you feel comfortable with public displays of affection. Stand on the taller stair to give you a height boost. This is a great and convenient way to become closer to each other’s level. Lean in and wrap your arms around them to show your affection.

Article in English: To build a simple circuit, you will need a power source, 2 insulated wires, a light bulb, and a light bulb holder. A power source can be any type of battery or battery pack. The rest of the materials can be found at your local hardware store.  When choosing a light bulb, find one that is around 15-25 volts so a single battery can power them. To simplify the wire attachment process, use a battery snap with wires pre-attached and a 9-volt battery or battery pack. In order for your circuit to work properly, the wires need to be totally exposed so you must strip the ends. Using wire strippers, remove about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of the insulation from the ends of each wire.  If you don’t have wire strippers, you can carefully use scissors to cut off the insulation. Be careful not to cut all the way through the wire. Depending on the type of batteries you are using, you may be able to skip this step. If you are using multiple batteries, you will need a power pack to hold the batteries. Push each battery in by the side taking care to put the positive and negative ends in the correct orientation. The wires will be conducting your electric current from the batteries to the light bulb. The easiest way to attach the wires is to use electrical tape. Attach the end of one wire to one side of the battery, making sure that the wire maintains contact with the metal of the battery. Repeat with the other wire on the other side of the battery.  Alternatively, if you are using a battery snap, snap the end onto the end of a 9-volt battery or the battery pack. Use caution while building your circuit. Although unlikely, it is possible to get a very small shock if you touch the wire directly while attached to the battery. You can avoid this by only touching the insulated part of the wire or removing the batteries until you install the light bulb. Take the exposed metal end of each wire and bend it into a U-shape. Loosen each screw on the light bulb holder just enough to slip the U-shape of the wire around the screw. Each wire will be...

Article in English: To build a simple household fuel cell, you will need 12 inches (30 cm) of platinum or platinum-coated wire, a popsicle stick, a 9-volt battery and battery clip, clear tape, a glass of water, table salt (optional), a thin metal rod, and a volt meter. A 9-volt battery and battery clip can be purchased at an electronics or hardware store. You will need to purchase this wire from an electronics supply store, as platinum isn't used for common wiring purposes. The platinum serves as the catalyst for this reaction.   Platinum wires are recommended because other substances, such as copper, will react with the oxygen or the salt to pollute your solution with the products of this reaction.  High quality stainless steel can also be used as it will not react as readily. These two springs will serve as the fuel cell's electrodes. Take the end of the wire and wrap it tightly around your shaping rod to form a coil. Remove the first wire from the shaping rod and wrap the second wire.  The shaping rod can be a nail, pick, wire coat hanger or lead on a battery tester. Using a wire cutter, snip both of the wires attached to the clip in half and strip the insulation off the leads. This will leave bare wires that you can attach to your electrode coils.  Using the stripping portion of the wire cutters, strip the insulation off of one end of the cut wires. Only strip the ends of the leads you cut off the battery clip. Make sure that you have parental supervision while you're cutting the wires. Attaching the wire leads to the electrodes allows you to hook up your power source (the battery via the battery clip) and the voltmeter for reading how much electricity the fuel cell is producing.   Twist the red battery clip lead and the red clipped wire lead around the top end of one of the coils, leaving most of the coil free. Twist the black battery clip lead and black clipped wire lead around the top end of the remaining coil. The popsicle stick needs to be longer than the mouth of the container holding the water so it can rest on top....

Article in English: To build a solid foundation for long-lasting love look for someone that adds balance to your life.   Don't rely too much on the old adage "opposites attract." Relationships between opposites can sometimes devolve into dysfunctional relationships.  For example, if you're the quiet type don't assume you need a partner who is loud. You may never get the chance to speak-up. Rather, search for someone who is relatively like-minded. This way you can both grow together. Try to find someone that you can share your deeper beliefs with. If you are religious and your partner is an atheist, you are likely to face some problems down the road.  You are likely to be more compatible with someone who has the same basic moral values as you.  Think about what you want out of your relationship. Do you want to start a family? Where do you want to live? If you want to travel, and you find yourself attracted to someone who wants to settle down, take a step back. While the two of you may get along, you may not be able to build a life together.  Sharing priorities in life is a good indicator of being able to share a life together. " Odds are there isn't just one person in the world for each of us. Keep an open mind and don't hold out for the "perfect" mate.  It may actually be damaging to think of finding your "one" soulmate. There is no such thing as a perfect relationship. There is bound to be conflict. Don't take conflict as a sign that you haven't met "the one."  In searching for "the one" we often look for someone who "completes" us. Don't expect to find a partner that will satisfy all of your needs. Rather, look for a partner that will encourage you to grow and try new things. Attraction is a good thing in a relationship, but being friends is what will enable you to sustain it.  Find someone whose company you enjoy. You should look forward to spending time with that person.  You may find someone attractive, but if you don't like spending time with them, the relationship may not last long.  You and your partner should be able to...

Article in English: To build the balance beam you will need six 8 foot (2.44 m) pieces of 1-by-6 pine beams, four 12-inch (61 cm) pieces of 2-by-4 wood planks and four 24-inch (30.5 cm) pieces of 2-by-4 wood planks. You will also need to purchase everything listed below in "Things You'll Need". These items can all be found at your local hardware supplier or stores such as Home Depot and Lowes. Use soap, water and a washcloth, sponge or coarse brush to scrub the wood pieces thoroughly. This is very important as dirt and grime can prevent the wood glue from working as effectively. Let the wood sit for a while until it is completely dry before adding the glue. Place the pine beams vertically next to one another as that is how they will need to be administered. Glue the largest sides (the flat sides with the most surface area) of the wooden beams together with an industrial-strength wood glue (preferably waterproof). Use a very generous amount of glue in this process as that is what keeps the wood beams together. Make sure they dry before the next step!  When finished the fronts and backs of the beams should be completely flush, creating 1 large beam measuring 8-feet (2.44 m) long and around 4.5-inches (10.2 cm) wide. The 4.5-inch (10.2 cm) surface will be the top of your homemade beam. The best solution for securing the beams together is to use wood clamps. If you don't have clamps, lay the beams flat on their widest part and apply a heavy weight to help fuse the boards. Allow the beams to dry for at least 24 hours. When the glue has dried, remove the clamps or the weights, and sand the entire surface of the beam. Use a sanding plane or sand belt to ensure the surface is uniform and even. Screw the angle holders (the angle holders will come with screws) to the underside ends of your balance beam approximately 12 inches (30.5 cm) from the end of each side.

Article in English: To calculate mass from volume, you must know the density of the object. Different materials have different densities. Consider a sphere made of styrofoam, for example, and compare its weight to a sphere the same size made of iron. Iron has a much greater density and will therefore have a greater mass.  You can find densities of many solid materials by looking up density tables online, in textbooks or in other industry catalogs. For example, here are the recorded densities of some solid materials: Aluminum = 2700 kg/m3  Butter = 870 kg/m3  Lead = 11,350 kg/m3  Pressed wood = 190 kg/m3 The units you used in calculating volume must match the volume units in the density measurement. If they do not, then you must convert them.  All of the examples in the previous section resulted in volumes measured in cubic centimeters. However, the cited density table provides densities based on cubic meters. Because there are 100 centimeters in a meter, there are 106 cubic centimeters in a cubic meter. Divide the given densities by 106 to represent the density in units of kg/cm3. (You can do this most easily by just moving the decimal point 6 spaces to the left.) For the four sample materials, the converted densities are as follows:  Aluminum = 2700 kg/m3 = 0.0027 kg/cm3  Butter = 870 kg/m3 = 0.00087 kg/cm3  Lead = 11,350 kg/m3 = 0.01135 kg/cm3  Pressed wood = 190 kg/m3 = 0.00019 kg/cm3 Recall that the formula for density is Density=MassVolume{\displaystyle {\text{Density}}={\frac {\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}}}. Rearranging this to find the mass, the equation becomes Density∗Volume=Mass{\displaystyle {\text{Density}}*{\text{Volume}}={\text{Mass}}}. Using the four sample materials, aluminum, butter, lead and pressed wood, find the mass of a sphere that has a volume of 500 cm3.  Aluminum:500 cm3∗0.0027kgcm3=1.35 kg{\displaystyle {\text{Aluminum}}:500{\text{ cm}}^{3}*0.0027{\frac {\text{kg}}{{\text{cm}}^{3}}}=1.35{\text{ kg}}} Butter:500 cm3∗0.00087kgcm3=0.435 kg{\displaystyle {\text{Butter}}:500{\text{ cm}}^{3}*0.00087{\frac...

Article in English: To calculate percent decrease using this formula, subtract the smaller number (the new or final value) from the bigger number (the original or old value). Note that this is the opposite of finding percent change using the standard equation. For instance, say you’re trying to figure out how much a school’s enrollment changed between years. If the enrollment for this year is 12,125 and it was 13,500 last year, take 12,125 away from 13,500, which is 1,375. Remember that when determining percent decrease, the original value is the bigger number. In this case, divide 1,375 (the difference between the numbers) by 13,500 (the original value), which is equal to 0.1019 (when rounded). Converting your answer from a decimal to a percentage is easy—just multiply the value by 100. Multiply 0.1019 by 100, which is 10.19. So, enrollment decreased by 10.19%.

Article in English: To calculate the approximate yield to maturity, you need to know the coupon payment, the face value of the bond, the price paid for the bond and the number of years to maturity.  These figures are plugged into the formula ApproxYTM=(C+((F−P)/n))/(F+P)/2{\displaystyle ApproxYTM=(C+((F-P)/n))/(F+P)/2}.  C = the coupon payment, or the amount paid in interest to the bond holder each year. F = the face value, or the full value of the bond. P = the price the investor paid for the bond. n = the number of years to maturity. Suppose you purchased a $1,000 for $920.  The interest is 10 percent, and it will mature in 10 years.  The coupon payment is $100 ($1,000x.10=$100{\displaystyle \$1,000x.10=\$100}).  The face value is $1,000, and the price is $920.  The number of years to maturity is 10.  Use the formula: ($100+(($1,000−$920)/10))/($1,000+$920)/2{\displaystyle (\$100+((\$1,000-\$920)/10))/(\$1,000+\$920)/2}  Using this calculation, you arrive at an approximate yield to maturity of 11.25 percent. Plug the yield to maturity back into the formula to solve for P, the price.  Chances are, you will not arrive at the same value.  This is because this yield to maturity calculation is an estimate.  Decide whether you are satisfied with the estimate or if you need more precise information.  Use the formula P=C∗((1−(1/(1+i)n))/i)+M/((1+i)n){\displaystyle P=C*((1-(1/(1+i)^{n}))/i)+M/((1+i)^{n})}, where, P = the bond price, C = the coupon payment, i = the yield to maturity rate, M = the face value and n = the total number of coupon payments. If you plug the 11.25 percent YTM into the formula to solve for P, the price, you get a price of $927.15. A lower yield to maturity will result in a higher bond price.  The bond price you get when you plug the 11.25 percent interest figure back into the formula is too high, indicating that this YTM estimate may be somewhat low.

Article in English: To calculate the density of water you will need a graduated cylinder, a scale or balance, and water. Graduated cylinders are special containers that have lines or gradations that allow you to measure a specific volume of liquid. In order to find the density, you have to know the mass and volume of the liquid in question. You will use the graduated cylinder to obtain the mass of the water, but you have to subtract out the weight of the graduated cylinder so you know you’re only measuring the mass of the water itself.  Turn the balance on and make sure it is set to zero. Place the dry, empty graduated cylinder on the balance. Record the mass of the cylinder in grams (g). For example, let’s say the empty graduated cylinder weighs 11 grams. It doesn’t matter how much water you add, but be sure to note the exact amount. Read the volume by looking at the cylinder at eye level and recording the volume at the bottom of the meniscus. The meniscus is the curve of the liquid that you’ll see when you look at the water right at eye level.  The volume of water in the graduated cylinder is the volume you will use for the density calculation. Let’s say you filled the graduated cylinder with 7.3 milliliters (mL) of volume. Make sure the balance is set to zero and weigh the graduated cylinder full of water. Be careful not to spill any of the water out of the top when you weigh it.  If you do spill the water, take note of the new volume and re-weigh the water-filled graduated cylinder. For example, let’s say the full graduated cylinder weighs 18.3 grams. To get the mass of the water only, you must subtract out the weight of the graduated cylinder. The result is the mass of the water in the cylinder. In our example, the mass of the graduated cylinder is 11 g and the mass of the cylinder full of water is 18.3 g. 18.3 g – 11 g = 7.3 g, therefore the mass of the water is 7.3 grams. Using the equation density = mass/volume, you can determine the density of water. Plug in the values of mass and volume you determined and solve.  Mass...

Article in English: To calculate the growth rate, you're going to need the starting value. The starting value is the population, revenue, or whatever metric you're considering at the beginning of the period. For example, if the revenue of a company is $10,000 at the beginning of the period, then the starting value is 10,000. To calculate the annual growth, you'll not only need the starting value, you'll also need the final value. That value is the population, revenue, or whatever metric you're considering at the end of the period. For example, if the revenue of a company is $65,000 at the period, then the final value is 65,000. Since you're measuring the growth rate for a series of years, you'll need to know the number of years during the period. For example, if you want to measure the annual revenue growth of a company between 2011 and 2015, then the number of years is 2015 - 2011 or 4. The formula for calculating the annual growth rate is Growth Percentage Over One Year =((fs)1y−1)∗100{\displaystyle =(({\frac {f}{s}})^{\frac {1}{y}}-1)*100} where f is the final value, s is the starting value, and y is the number of years.  Example Problem: A company earned $10,000 in 2011. That same company earned $65,000 four years later in 2015. What's the annual growth rate? Enter the values above into the growth rate formula to find the answer: Annual Growth Rate =((6500010000)14−1)∗100{\displaystyle =(({\frac {65000}{10000}})^{\frac {1}{4}}-1)*100}  =(6.514−1)∗100{\displaystyle =(6.5^{\frac {1}{4}}-1)*100} ≈ (1.5967−1)∗100{\displaystyle (1.5967-1)*100}  = 59.67% annual growth   Note — raising a value a to the 1b{\displaystyle {\frac {1}{b}}} exponent is equivalent to taking the bth root of a. You will likely need a calculator with an "nx{\displaystyle n{\sqrt {x}}}" button, or a good online calculator.

Article in English: To calculate the normal force of an object at an angle, you need to use the formula: N = m * g * cos(x)  For this equation, N refers to the normal force, m refers to the object's mass, g refers to the acceleration of gravity, and x refers to the angle of incline.  Example: Find the normal force of a block with a mass of 4.2 kg, sitting on a ramp with an incline of 45 degrees. The cosign of an angle equals the sine of the complementary angle, or the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse of the triangle formed by the incline.  This value is often determined by a calculator, since the cosine of any angle is constant to that angle, but you can compute it manually, as well.  Example: cos (45) = 0.71 The weight of an object equals the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of gravity.  Note that the gravitational acceleration at the Earth's surface is a constant: g = 9.8 m/s2   Example: weight = m * g = 4.2 * 9.8 = 41.16 In order to find the normal force, you need to multiply the weight of the object by the cosine of the angle of incline.  Example: N = m * g * cos(x) = 41.16 * 0.71 = 29.1 The previous step should complete the problem and give you your answer.  Note that for an object sitting on an incline, the normal force should be less than the weight of the object.  Example: The normal force is 29.1 N.

Article in English: To calculate the population density, you will divide the population by the size of the area. Thus, Population Density = Number of People/Land Area.  The unit of land area should be square miles or square kilometers. You can use square feet or meters if you are finding the density of a smallish space. For most professional and academic demographic purposes, though, you'll need to use the standard square miles or kilometers. The unit of population density is people per unit of area. For instance, 2000 people per square mile. You should know the population and the surface area of the region. For example: if there are 145,000 people in the city of Auburn, and the urban area covers 9 square miles, write 145,000/9 square miles. Use long division, or just use a calculator. In our example, 145,000 divided by 9 would show that the population density is 16,111 people/square mile.

Article in English: To calculate your Handicap Index, you’ll first need a minimum of five golf scores (and no more than 20).  Gather at least five scores 18-hole scores or ten 9-hole scores and use them to calculate your Adjusted Gross Score. To determine your Adjusted Gross Score (AGS), total up the number of strokes taken during a round, then adjust for the maximum per-hole scores (determined by the USGA’s Equitable Stroke Control guidelines). Most golf courses make the information on maximum per-hole scores available to the general public. Check the course’s website or inquire at the clubhouse. For example, if you took 8 strokes on a hole whose maximum-per hole score is 5, you would count 5 strokes (not 8) for that hole when adding up your total number of strokes for the game. Once you have your AGS, use it to determine your handicap differential.  The equation for a Handicap Differential is the AGS minus Course rating, multiplied by 113, and divided by the Slope Rating, or (AGS - Course Rating) x 113 / Slope Rating. The Course Rating is the numerical value given by the UGSA to each set of tees on a course. It approximates the number of strokes it should take a scratch golfer to complete the course. Most courses make this information available via the course website or at the clubhouse. The Slope Rating shows the difficulty of a course for an average golfer and is calculated by comparing the Course Rating to the scores of bogey golfers. Most golf courses make the Slope Rating available to their guests; again, check their website or at the clubhouse. For example, say your AGS is 85, the Course Rating is 69.3, and the Slope Rating is 117. You would have the equation (AGS - Course Rating) x 113 / Slope Rating, or (85 - 69.3) x 113 / 117, which results in a Handicap Differential of 15.2. The formula for your Handicap Index is the sum of your differentials divided by the number of differentials, multiplied by 0.96, or (Sum of Differentials / Number of Differentials) x 0.96.  The figure of 0.96 in the equation represents the “bonus...

Neither piece can have been moved from its original position, even if the pieces have returned to that space, although if you want to castle with one rook, the other can have moved freely.  All the spaces between the rook and the king need to be free spaces. To castle with the rook to the right of your king, the bishop and the knight on that side need to have moved elsewhere. To castle with the rook to the left of your king, the bishop, knight, and queen must have moved elsewhere. Likewise, these spaces cannot be occupied by your opponent's pieces, meaning you can't castle to capture a piece. The king must not currently be in check, move through any squares under attack by enemy pieces, and must not end up in check after castling. If you have been checked previously in the game but are not currently in check, you are allowed to castle. If the rook is threatened, you're still permitted to castle.

It will be much easier to catch the fly once it has landed on a stable surface, such as a table top, kitchen counter or window pane. Move slowly towards the fly. Any sudden movements can set the fly off and you will have to wait for it to land again. Once the fly lands, quickly and stealthily place the cup over it, trapping it inside. If you miss, follow it around until it lands again. Once the fly is in the cup, you are faced with the dilemma of how to lift the cup from the flat surface without letting the fly escape. Your sheet of paper or large index card can solve this problem. Be sure to keep the cup close to the table when you're sliding your paper beneath the cup. If you leave too big a gap, the fly could escape.

Article in English: To cause irritation to the vocal cords and promote voice loss, make a mixture of white vinegar and lemon juice. Add 1/4 cup vinegar (2 oz.) and 1/4 cup lemon juice (2 oz.) to a glass, then stir. Gargle with the mixture for about 30 seconds, then spit it out and repeat if desired. If the mixture is too potent for you, add 1/4 cup water (2 oz.) to dilute it. Caffeine and alcohol can have a dehydrating effect on the body, leaving your throat dry and raspy. Healthy vocal folds need moisture to vibrate and close properly, otherwise your voice will get breathy and hoarse. Spend a fun night out with friends at a cafe or bar and consume plenty of caffeinated or alcoholic drinks to lose your voice fast. Consuming food or drink that has a high acidic content can cause acid reflux, which in turn can irritate the vocal chords and trigger laryngitis. Fatty or spicy foods can have the same effect. To lose your voice fast, try consuming:  Citrus fruits Tomatoes Fried foods Red meat Cheese Keep your throat dry and breathe through your mouth often.

Article in English: To change 1 of the mixed fractions, multiply the denominator by the whole number. Then add the numerator. Place the result over the line and leave the denominator as-is. Repeat this for the other mixed fraction. For example, if you start with 1 1/2 x 4 4/7, change them to improper fractions. 1 1/2 will become 3/2 and 4 4/7 will become 32/7. Your equation will now by 3/2 x 32/7. Now that you have 2 improper fractions and no whole numbers in the equation, multiply the numerators together. Write the result and place a line below it.  The numerator is always the top number in a fraction. For example, with 3/2 x 32/7, multiply 3 by 32 to get 96. Multiply the numbers below the line and write the result under your numerator. For example, with 3/2 x 32/7, multiply the 2 by 7 to get 14. If the numerator of your result is larger than the denominator, see how many times the denominator will go into the numerator. Then leave put the remainder over the denominator to give you a mixed fraction.  For example, if you got 96/14, see how many times 14 will go into 96. You'll get 6 with 12 left over. Place 12 over the denominator (14). Most instructors will want you to put the answer in the same form as the question. So if you started with mixed fractions, convert your answer to a mixed fraction. further if possible. You'll probably end up with a whole number and a fraction. Look at the fraction and see if you can simplify it. For example, if you have 6 12/14, reduce 12/14 by 2 to get 6/7. In this example, your final answer will be 6 6/7.

Article in English: To change the filter, remove the metal grate which covers the filter. Then pull out the air filter, and set in a replacement unit. The air filter is located indoors, and will typically be close to the evaporator unit. It’s about two feet (0.6 meters) wide and 1 foot (0.3 meters) high. Over time, the air filter will become clogged and dirty with all of the dust and dirt particles that it has filtered out of the air. A dirty filter will obstruct airflow within the AC system, and will cause the system to function with much less efficiency. If your AC unit’s air filter can be washed and reused, you can simply clean it and place it back in the unit rather than disposing it and purchasing a new one. To clean your reusable filter, follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Most reusable filters are cleaned by running them under lukewarm tap water, and a gentle application of dish soap. To quickly tell a disposable from a reusable air filter, inspect the material it’s made from. Disposable filters will be made of thick, papery material, while reusable filters are made of a rubbery frame and metal mesh. As the evaporator unit cools and de-humidifies air from outside, it produces runoff liquid. In most air conditioner units, this air runs down from the top of the evaporator in a thin, plastic pipe, and runs through a drain in the floor. To make sure that the drain hasn’t gotten clogged, you can run a stiff wire through the drain.  If the plastic pipe is flexible, poke the wire into the bottom of the pipe as well, to make sure that it’s not clogged. In some more modern units, the pipe which drains water runs directly into the floor, and does not have a drain. In this case, you do not need to clean the setup. Call a AC professional cleaner—or your landlord—if you notice water pooling around the base of the evaporator unit, or see water-damaged flooring nearby.

Article in English: To change the internal data of your Pokémon Sapphire game, you'll need to buy a device to act as an interface. One of the most widespread devices that players use for these purposes is GameShark, which you can plug into your Gameboy Advance, insert your Sapphire cartridge into, and input cheat codes to alter your game data. Before you do anything else, you'll need to enter the Master Code separate from the Pokémon code you will use to make Ditto available to you. The Master Code is: 9E6AC862 823AB7A8 46B7D9E4 A709E9E1 Now that you've entered the Master Code, you can enter a cheat code that will make Ditto appear in your game, even though wild Dittos are not normally found in Sapphire. The cheat code for Ditto is: 920A0644 C5A04841 With your Master Code and Ditto cheat code enabled, you should be able to find Ditto on Route 101, to the north of Littleroot Town. Walk around Route 101 until you randomly encounter a Ditto. GameShark cheat codes sometimes require several attempts before they have the desired result. If you have no luck finding Ditto on Route 101, turn off the game and enter the appropriate codes again. Some players report having to do this up to 12 times before catching their sought after Pokemon. In the same fashion you would catch any randomly encountered Pokemon, catch your now available Ditto. You may need to weaken it before throwing a Pokeball to catch it, just be careful not to do too much damage or it will faint and you'll have to continue your hunt for a Ditto to call your own.

Article in English: To check that the turkey is cooked, pull away a leg. If the juices run clear, then it's cooked. It'll be easiest if the legs are placed away from you. The juices will spread within the turkey, making the meat evenly moist. This also gives you time to prepare last-minute dishes. Tenting with foil will help keep the bird warm and is also recommended to help keep the meat firmer and juicier. The key to a good carving knife is its sharpness; also, it should have a blade long enough to carve the breast into neat slices, meaning that it should extend about 5 cm (2") beyond the meat on both sides to allow for the sawing action.  Do not use serrated knives or a chopper. It can also help to have a large carving fork to hold the turkey in place. If using a carving fork, it should be short, with curved prongs. This type of fork will hold the turkey firmly without damaging the meat, giving you total control over the carving and slicing.  Some people like to use two knives. They will use the carving knife for slicing the turkey into thin strips and a cook's knife to divide the bird into joints. This is important because it will help the carved meat to retain its heat for longer. You'll be eating this thing for the next six hours, so it's best to be prepared (do you have your sweatpants ready, too?). Remove any trussing string and foil before carving at this stage.

Article in English: To clean mildew from a canvas awning, you'll need a cleaning solution made from water, bleach,or a mild liquid soap. Don't mix bleach with household cleaners, which may cause toxic fumes. To get the job done, you'll need some supplies and cleaning equipment, including:  Ladder Broom Tarps or plastic covers Hose Large bucket Clean cloth or rag Soft-bristled brush Fabric protecting treatment spray Smaller awnings can be removed from their frames so that you can clean them on the ground level. Carefully remove the awing from the arms and frame. When you’ve got the awning down, lay it on a flat, clean surface to clean it. Awnings that are too large, too heavy, or too awkward are best left in place. You can clean them where they are, but you will need a ladder to access the top to clean the mildew.  Look for a ladder with a platform at the top that will hold your cleaning supplies. If you have access to a cherry picker or other lift device, you can use those as well. This is especially important if you're going to be cleaning the awning in place, because you don’t want to splash cleaning solution onto nearby items.  Cover the area under and around the awning with tarps or plastic sheets. Be particularly careful about covering things like plants, furniture, grass, decorations, carpets, and fabrics. Before you start cleaning off the mildew, use a broom to clean off any dirt, leaves, sticks, twigs, cobwebs, or other organic materials that have accumulated on the awning. Leaving organic matter on your awning for an extended period can lead to damage, because the matter will cause deterioration to the fabric as it rots.

Article in English: To clean the outside of your kettle, use basic dish detergent. Wash the outside with the dish soap and then wipe it down with a damp cloth. Try not to get any dish soap inside the kettle.  Clean the outside every week or so. Because of the heating element, you cannot place your electric kettle in water. If you have a stainless steel electric kettle, you may want to polish it to keep it shiny. To make it shiny, use olive oil. Place some oil on a soft cloth and rub over the outside of the kettle. Rub gently to make sure you don't scratch the outside surface. The interior of your kettle can get build up with frequent use, especially if you live in an area with hard water. This can lead to flakes in your tea or coffee, and cause the kettle to work slower. To keep your kettle working properly, clean it every few months.

Article in English: To clean the tank, you first need to place your crab in a holding container so you can give the tank and the accessories a good clean. The container can be a clean plastic tub or bin. Your crab will likely run around the holding container while you clean his tank. You can leave a small bowl of dechlorinated water out and place it next to the holding container so it comes to room temperature. You can then use this bowl later to clean any mites on your pet so he is mite free when he goes back into his clean, mite free tank. If you’d really like to make sure there are no mites left in the tank at all, you can use a small vacuum to suck out any mites in the tank. Do this before you wet the tank, as the vacuum will work better on a dry surface. Focus on the corners of the tank as this is where the mites tend to like to hang out. Once you have removed the accessories, you can wipe down the tank with a wet paper towel. Press down on the sides and bottom the tank to swish any mites and remove them. Make sure you do this in the corners of the tank, as this is often where the mites like to hide. You can also rinse the tank out with tap water to drown and wash away any mites still in the tank. Try to eliminate any black flecks in the tank so the tank is spotless and clean. Mites do not like direct sunlight, so once you rinse and wipe down the tank with plain water, you should let it dry completely in the sun. You can also let the tank dry indoors overnight. Once the tank is dry, you can place the sterilized tank accessories back into the tank.

Article in English: To come to a solution, you both will probably need to compromise. That is, you parents might need to give a little, and you might need to give a little. If you both give in a little bit, you might find a solution you're both happy with.  When you're trying to compromise, you have to figure out what both of you want or need. For instance, your parents are probably most concerned with your safety and well-being. You're probably most concerned with getting what you want, such as a little more independence. Say you want to spend the night at your friend's house. Your parents may not want you to because they don't know the parents and so, they don't know if you'll be safe. You can come to a compromise where you start out by everyone going out together, so your parents can meet her parents. Then, when you do go over, you can agree to check in with your parents every so often so they know you're okay. That way, you both can feel a little better about what you want. However, your parents might be unwilling to compromise if they think you won't be safe, so think about that when trying to make a compromise. You may not get what you want. Your parents may not be persuaded by your arguments. If that's the case, it's best to accept what they have to say for now. In the future, you may be able to try again. If you whine and complain now, it will make your parents think you're less trustworthy, not more. One way to help your parents understand how you're feeling on the topic is to discuss your feelings and thoughts openly with them. That doesn't mean that you nag them constantly about changing their minds. Rather, you need to have an open dialogue about why you feel the way you do. For instance, if you're trying to get your parents to let you go out more, don't say, "You're awful. You need to change this decision." Instead, say things such as, "I know you want to protect me, but I feel really left out when my friends go out without me. I don't want to go to parties or get drunk. My friends like to go out to coffee or to the...

Article in English: To complete the process of importing your spreadsheet, you need to complete the steps in the wizard.  Choose the worksheet within the Excel spreadsheet that you want to import. Sometimes, this is simple because the Excel spreadsheet is just one sheet. However, sometimes people create multiple pages within a single Excel spreadsheet, which you can see by clicking on the tabs at the bottom of the spreadsheet. If this is the case, you need to tell the Access wizard which spreadsheet you are choosing. Click next. The next page has a box asking if the first row in the Excel sheet has column headings. This means the row in a spreadsheet that identifies the data in each column (such as last name, address, salary, etc.). It's a good idea if you cleaned up your Excel sheet first to make sure that the first row has clearly defined column headings. Then, just check yes that the first row contains column headings. This is the simplest approach. Click next. If your first row does not contain column headings, the next page asks you if you want to rename what are called "fields" in Access (these are column headings). If you did not already name each field something clear and easy to recognize before importing (recommended), then you can do it here. There are only a few steps left in the importing process. The next page in the wizard will ask if you want to identify a primary key.  You don't have to do this, but you can. A primary key means the computer program will assign each row of information a unique number. This can be helpful later on when sorting the data. Click next.  The final screen in the wizard has a space providing a default name. You can change the name of the Excel sheet you are importing (it will become a "table" in Access on the left side of the page when you finish importing it). Click "import." Click "close." You will see your table on the left side of the screen. It is now imported within Access. If you want to link more than one data set, repeat this process with another or multiple Excel spreadsheets....

Article in English: To complete the project, you will need a crew-necked shirt, a ruler or measuring tape (if using a tape measure, you'll also need a separate straight edge), stick pins, a fabric marker, fabric scissors, a seam ripper, thread the same color as your shirt, a sewing machine or sewing needle. An easy way to do this is to use a V-necked shirt that you like as a guide. Fold the shirt vertically in half, making sure that the shoulders line up. Lay it flat on a table.Then use a ruler to measure the distance from the point where the collar meets the shoulder seam to the point of the V. Write down this measurement.  If you don't have another v-necked shirt, you'll have to estimate how deep the V should be. In this instance, it's better to start conservatively as you can always make it deeper.  You may want to try on the shirt to gauge how deep you want the V. While wearing the shirt, look in the mirror and mark the spot you'd like the point of the V with a pin. The front of the collar should be on the outside of the fold. Make sure that the neckline, the shoulders and the arms match up exactly. Lay it out on a table, smoothing it down until it is free of wrinkles. Place a ruler in a diagonal line from the the point where the shoulder seam meets the collar down to the middle of the chest. Using the measurements you took in the previous step, mark off the point of the "V" with a fabric marker. Then draw a line between the mark and the point where shoulder seam meets the collar. Flip the shirt over and repeat this step on the other side.

Article in English: To complete your first draft, you'll need to find a time and place that is conducive to your writing goals. You can write at the same time every morning or evening, write in short bursts throughout the day, or write in long bouts three days a week. Don’t wait to write only when you feel spurts of inspiration. Instead, treat writing like the real work it is and stick to a regular routine.  Try scheduling a specific writing time into your daily calendar. Even if you don’t really feel like writing then, or just can’t get the words to come out, sit down during your scheduled time and work at it. Create a writing space to help you get into a routine. Find a cozy place where you can focus. Invest in a chair that won't cause back pain after a couple of hours of sitting and writing. You’ll be spending a lot of time in this place, so make it comfy and functional! Though it's great to start with a genre, plot, characters, and setting in mind, don’t let yourself get too bogged down with all the details. Some writers thrive when they just start writing, without much of a plan to guide them. Follow the path that suits your style and your creativity.  For many writers, planning ahead makes the writing process go more quickly and smoothly. For others, though, planning can become a barrier that gets in the way of actually writing. Trust your own instincts on what works best for you. Even if you are a planner, don’t get obsessed over every last detail as you set up your novel. If you're too preoccupied with details before even writing your first draft, you may be stifling your own creativity. if you want to map out your novel. Creating an outline can be a good way to map out your ideas and give you small goals to accomplish as you work toward the larger goal of writing an entire book. But, if you write better “from the hip”  and without all the details in place, just let yourself get inspired and write whatever feels right.  Your outline does not have to be linear.

Article in English: To completely start over, kill the grass that is currently there. Applying black poly film over the entirety of your lawn will kill the grass underneath. Alternatively, you could lay wet newspaper or cardboard over the grass. Put 6 inches (15 cm) of compost on top of this layer. This method can take up to 2-3 weeks for the grass and weeds to fully die. Once the weeds and grass have died, remove the film or paper from your yard. Put a collection bag on the back of your lawnmower so that it collects all of the clippings and cut weeds. Set the mower to cut 1.5 inches (3.8 cm) and go over your entire lawn and cut it to the same length. Not using a collection bag can spread weed seeds back onto your lawn. Go over the lawn with a stiff rake and pile up loose grass and weeds. Put the excess weeds and old grass into garbage bags. Remove any excess weeds or grass that are on the surface of the lawn before moving onto the next step. Wear a pair of gloves and start to spread the compost over the surface your lawn. Then, use a rake to level out the compost so that it’s even 1⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) layer on your lawn. If you got your lawn tested, you can use a compost with the specific nutrients that your lawn needs to be healthy. Fill the hopper in your broadcast spreader with a 9-3-4 balanced fertilizer. Lay down 1 pound (450 g) of fertilizer for every 1,000 square feet (93 m2).  You can rent or purchase a broadcast spreader from a hardware or gardening store. This fertilizer will encourage the growth of your newly planted grass seed. 9-3-4 stands for 9 parts nitrogen, 3 parts phosphorus, and 4 parts potassium. Use a broadcast spreader to lay 7 pounds (3,200 g) of seed per 1,000 square feet (93 m2) of lawn. Fill the hopper of the spreader up with the appropriate amount of grass seed. Then, run the spreader across the surface of your lawn. For example, if you had a 1,500 square feet (140 m2) lawn, you'd need to distribute 10 pounds (4,500 g) of seed over the lawn.

Article in English: To conjugate a reflexive verb, the first thing you'll have to do is to learn how to conjugate it depending on the subject pronoun. Each subject pronoun has a distinct form of se. These conjugated forms of se will work in any tense. Here they are:   Yo: me   Tú: te   Él, Ella, Usted: se   Nosotros/as: nos   Vosotros/as: os   Ellos/as, Ustedes: se Before you proceed, you can place the appropriate form of "se" before the verb. You can think of this as removing the "se" at the end of the verb before you conjugate it. Remove the "se" ending from the end -- you've already conjugated it. Now just conjugate the verb according to the rules of conjugating a verb in the present tense -- provided that it's a regular verb. Place the verb after the correct form of se and you'll be done conjugating. You can eliminate the subject pronoun before the reflexive pronoun when you make a statement using a reflexive verb; for example, you can say "Yo me lavo" to say "I wash myself," but the statement "Me lavo" is more common. Here are the forms of the conjugated reflexive verb levanto (to get up) in the present tense:   Yo: me levanto   Tú: te levantas   Él, Ella, Usted: se levanta   Nosotros/as: nos levantamos   Vosotros/as: os levantáis   Ellos/as, Ustedes: se levantan

Article in English: To control how small the test area is, apply the spray to a Q-tip, and transfer it to a very small part of the fabric that will be hidden by your hair or other clothing when you wear the garment. If the color doesn’t bleed off when you rub it, you can safely apply the spray to your stain. Use enough product to completely saturate the stained area of fabric — be generous! Either buy a cheap toothbrush or use an old one that needs to be replaced anyway to gently scrub at the stain to loosen it from the garment. You don’t want to spread the stain around, but dab it to pick the nail polish up onto the cotton ball. When one cotton ball becomes covered with nail polish, replace it with a fresh one to prevent transferring the nail polish back onto your garment. Hold the stained part of your garment under running water in the sink or bathtub to rinse the fabric of both polish and bug or hair spray.  Repeat the process of spraying with bug/hair spray, scrubbing with toothbrush, and rinsing in warm water until the stain has been completely removed from your garment. Run the garment through the laundry when you’ve finished.

Article in English: To cope with feeling alone or lonely at night, find a way to entertain or distract yourself. If you truly enjoy your selected hobby, your time alone will be transformed from something you dread to something to look forward to. Consider the following activities to keep you busy:  Reading Watching television Listening to music Writing You may have a difficult time sleeping alone at night because of feeling lonely, missing the partner you used to sleep with, or hearing strange noises. To cope with sleeping alone, turn off your television, tablet, or computer about an hour before bedtime to prepare yourself for sleep. You can also make falling asleep easier by: Avoiding alcohol, caffeine, and food too late in the day Avoiding stressful activities, like exercise, right before bed Keeping the room lights on low Playing soft music Using a sound machine or ear plugs to drown out other noises Keeping the room cool Using comfortable, soft bedding, like a body pillow Wearing a sleep mask or using curtains to block out light Getting up to read, take a bath, or drink hot tea if you find yourself tossing and turning Having a structured evening for yourself at home will help keep your thoughts from straying into loneliness when you’re alone at night. Having a routine can also help keep you motivated and feel fulfilled while being alone. For example, if you come home from work at 5 p.m., you can schedule time for relaxation, exercise, dinner, socialization, and perhaps a hobby before bedtime. It can be helpful to keep a regular bedtime, although a perk of being alone is that you can go to sleep whenever you want! When you live alone or are alone at night, it may feel like a waste of time to make yourself a meal and sit down at the table to eat. However, making your meals special and keeping your mealtimes consistent is a good way to ward off loneliness at night. For example, if you’re alone at night on a holiday, fix yourself the meal you typically would have had with your family or others. As you eat, you can relive special...

Article in English: To create a Nether Portal, you'll need at least ten obsidian blocks. Make a hollow standing rectangle, 5 blocks high and 4 blocks long (corners are not necessary; you can use any block as a stand-in). Then strike the inside of the rectangle with flint and steel. The empty inner space should turn purple and start to make interesting sounds. Stand in the portal and wait 4 seconds to be transported into the Nether. Make sure you have your flint and steel for relighting the portal in case it breaks from a ghast and plenty of food to keep yourself well-fed. A Nether Fortress is a structure in the Nether that contains Nether Wart and a Blaze spawner.  They can be somewhat hard to find, so it could take a while. Blazes drop Blaze rods, which are needed for making potions and getting to the endgame. You will need a lot of Blaze rods. Nether Wart is a key ingredient in potions, and it only grows on Soul Sand, so collect some Soul Sand (it's brown with a face-like pattern) and try farming it in your base. Nether Wart can be found naturally occurring in nether fortresses in two small patches alongside stairs going upwards. This will let you brew potions, which will help during the final boss fight.

Article in English: To create a caloric deficit, you’ll need to keep track of everything that crosses your lips. Using an app or food diary is the best way to do this. Record everything you eat in your app or food diary. Aim for a goal of 1,200 calories per day if you’re a woman or 1,500 calories per day if you’re a man.  Try to track what you eat or drink right after you eat it so that you won’t forget about it. Or, if you know what you’re going to be eating in advance, put it in your tracker ahead of time. This can also help you to budget your calories and spread them evenly among your meals and snacks. Keep in mind that it doesn’t matter if you follow a low-fat diet or a low-carb diet. Both approaches to weight loss are equally effective, so choose the option that works best for you. Fruits and vegetables are lower in calories than most other foods, and they’re filling because they’re high in fiber. By eating more fruits and vegetables with every meal, you’ll be cutting calories and satisfying your hunger in a healthy way. Aim to fill half of your plate with fruits or vegetables at each meal. For example, you could have 2 cups of melon with your morning toast and eggs, a green salad with a bowl of minestrone soup at lunch, and 2 cups of mixed steamed vegetables with skinless chicken breast and brown rice for dinner. Eating low-fat dairy products as part of a reduced calorie diet has been shown to promote weight loss. Include 2 to 3 servings of low-fat milk, yogurt, or cheese in your daily diet. For example, you could have 8  fl oz (240 mL) of 1% milk with your morning bowl of cereal, have a slice of low-fat cheese on a turkey sandwich at lunch, or enjoy ½ cup (120 g) of low-fat cottage cheese with your pasta and marinara sauce for dinner. The capsaicin in spicy foods helps to rev up your metabolism, which might help you to lose weight and keep it off. Include hot peppers, salsa, and spices made from chilies to incorporate more capsaicin in your diet. For example, you could sauté a couple of jalapenos with onions as a starter...

Article in English: To create a cleanser to remove the paint from your skin, add a small scoop of coconut oil and 2 to 3 drops of lemon essential oil to a bowl. Mix the ingredients well to ensure that they’re thoroughly combined.  You can use any type of oil, such as olive oil, jojoba oil, or canola oil, to help break down the oil-based paint. Coconut oil usually work best because it is solid at room temperature so it won’t make as big a mess as you rub it into your skin. The amount of coconut oil that you’ll need depends on how much paint is on your skin. Start with a small amount and add more if the paint isn’t coming off. Adding the lemon essential oil is optional. However, it is believed to be an extremely effective cleanser so it may help the paint come off more easily. After you’ve mixed the coconut oil and lemon essential oil, use your fingers to apply the mixture to the areas where the paint has stained your skin. Massage the coconut oil into your skin until the paint breaks down and comes off. If all of the paint isn’t coming off, add a little more coconut oil to your skin to help break down the remaining paint. After you’ve removed the paint with the coconut oil, use your usual hand or body soap and water to clean the residue from your skin. Pat your skin dry, and follow up with a moisturizing lotion to keep your skin from drying out. If you have a lot of paint on your skin, you may need to repeat the cleaning process two or more times to remove all of it.

Article in English: To create a good scary story, you need to have characters who are relatable to your readers. The readers must empathize with your character(s) based on the character’s desire or internal struggle. The more your readers empathize with your characters, the closer their connection to the story will be. You’ll need at least one main character and, depending on your story, the following additional characters:  Villain Other supporting characters (family member, best friend, love interest, etc.) Minor characters (postal worker, gas station attendant, etc.) When you are beginning to develop your characters, you need to work out who they are, what they do, as well as their motivations. Make your character distinct with a certain character trait or tick. This will also help you be consistent with the details.  Make lists for every major character that include the following information, and refer to this list while you’re writing:  Name, age, physical description (include height, weight, eye color, hair color, etc.) Personality traits Likes and dislikes Family history Best friend and worst enemy Five things the character would never leave home without The “stakes” of a character in a story is what your character has to lose if they make a certain decision or choice in the story. If your reader doesn’t know what is at stake for the character in the conflict, they cannot fear loss. A good horror story is all about creating extreme emotions like fear or anxiety in the reader. Be clear about what will happen if the character does not get what they want. The stakes of the story, or the consequences if the character does not achieve their desires, is what drives the story forward. The stakes also build tension and suspense for your reader. Go for the strange when developing your villain’s appearance, personality, and gestures. Instead of making a person or creature “normal,” make this character a little off. For example, think about Dracula. He doesn’t have a mouthful of “normal” teeth; instead, the reader is told that he...

Article in English: To create a leather cuff, you will need strips of tooled leather, leather glue, a leather needle, waxed linen thread, and a button snap or clasp for the ends of the bracelet. Use a ruler to measure a strip of leather 2 inches (5.08 cm) wide, by the length of your wrist plus one inch. Cut the leather to size with a pair of sharp scissors or utility knife. Attach your cut and sized leather to a larger, tooled piece of leather with leather glue. Use your fingers to smooth out any wrinkles, and allow it to dry overnight. Adding a second layer of leather to your bracelet will give a more finished look. Trim the edge off the tooled leather to make it the same size as your original strip. You should now be left with a nearly completed double-sided leather strip. Use a leather needle and waxed linen thread to stitch the cuff together. Any stitch is appropriate; the stitching is simply securing the edges of the leather and giving a more sophisticated look. Use your needle and thread or the leather glue to secure your clasps to either end. With the completion of this step, you're finished!

Article in English: To create a simple electromagnetic pulse, you will need a disposable camera, copper wire, rubber gloves, solder and soldering tools, and an iron rod. These components can be found at your local hardware store.  The thicker gauge copper wire you use in this experiment, the more powerful your electromagnetic pulse will be. In the event an iron rod is not available to you, you can use a non-metal rod as a substitute. However, a non-metal rod will have a negative impact on the strength of your EMP. When working with electrical components that could be holding a charge, or when running an electrical current through an object, it is recommended you wear rubber gloves to prevent any errant shocks to yourself. An electromagnetic coil is a device that is made up of two distinct yet integral parts: a conductor and a core. In this case, your iron rod will be your core and your copper wire the conductor. A capacitor is generally a double-pronged, cylindrical shaped component found on most circuit boards. Your disposable camera should have a capacitor for its flash. Be sure that the battery of your disposable camera is removed before attempting to solder the ends of your coil to the capacitor, or else you could get a nasty shock.  Wearing rubber gloves can save you from getting an electric jolt while handling your camera circuit and flash capacitor. Expend the charge in your capacitor by engaging the flash after removing the batteries from your camera. Any stored charge in your camera can result in an electrical shock. Depending on the materials you have used, the effective range of your EMP shouldn't be more than a few feet in any direction. Be that as it may, any electronics caught in your EMP may be permanently destroyed.  Keep in mind that EMP's indiscriminately influence electronics. This includes life-supporting devices, like pacemakers, and valuables like cellular phones. Any damage you cause to these devices through your EMP could result in legal repercussions. A grounded platform, like a tree stump or plastic...

Article in English: To create pin curls, you must start with evenly damp hair. Although you can just spray your hair to wet it, washing it will give you a clean slate and your curls will last for longer.  Towel dry hair after your wash to remove excess water. If you have very thick hair, give a little time for your hair to air-dry before creating the curls. You may need to mist the ends lightly to get even dampness in this case. The goal is to have your hair completely dry before removing the pins, so if you feel it is too wet let it dry a bit first. This goes even if you hair is not incredibly thick. You can also apply a setting lotion or thin styling gel to help the curls hold. This will prevent your hair from becoming frizzy and any of the pins from coming loose.  Try using a cotton scarf or bandana, so that it will absorb some of the moisture from your hair. This will also reduce the static cling created from the friction of the scarf on your hair. If you put your pin curls in at night, sleep with the scarf in. Make sure that it is secure enough that it won’t slip from your head while you snooze. It is easiest to create your pin curls at night before you go to bed and then sleep on them. You can also just sit around and wait for them to dry. Regardless of when you set your curls, be sure that your hair is completely dry before you remove the pins.  Avoid using a hair-dryer on your pin-curls, as it will make your hair frizzier and lose its curl. If you’re in a hurry,  use a diffuser on your dryer to minimize frizz. Make sure the dryer is on the lowest setting.  If your hair is still damp, give it more time to air dry. Test one of your curls to see if it is dry enough. Remove the pins from the single curl, and unravel your hair. Check to verify that the entire strand is dry. If it is, your pin curls are ready.

Article in English: To crochet you simply need a crochet hook and yarn. You can find both of these items at your local craft store or online. The best type of yarn to use when you are first starting out is 100 percent acrylic yarn in worsted weight. The best hook to use when you are first starting out is an aluminum crochet hook in size H (five millimeters). If you are an expert at crocheting, then use the supplies you already own. Insert the hook through the loop, and then take the loose end of your yarn and pull on it, until the loop is pulled tightly around the crochet hook. You will do 20 single crochets for each row and then 20 rows. Repeat these steps -- placing the hook through your chain, pulling the yarn through the two loops, continuing down the chain, turning your work and starting again on the next set of chains -- until you have completed 20 rows.  If you mess up, that's okay! Simply, take your hook out of your yarn and begin to pull your yarn to unravel it, until you've reached your mistake. Then, stick your hook back through your yarn and continue to crochet. If this is your first time crocheting and your work looks like a mess, don't stress. Crocheting is an art that takes practice, so continue to practice until you get the hang of it.

Article in English: To cut back on waste, don't throw something useful away after a single use. Instead, use it again or find a new way to use it. For example, instead of throwing away a brown lunch bag, save it and use it a few more times. Or cut the bag and lay it flat so you can use the brown paper to wrap something. Once it's outlived its usefulness, recycle it. For example, instead of throwing away wrapping paper and ribbons, use them as materials for a scrapbook. Ask your friends and family if they're interested in items you don't want to keep. It's a good idea to keep a bag set aside that you can add unwanted items to. When the bag gets full, have friends and family take what they want or take the bag to a charity. Many thrift or second hand stores will give you a discount for your next purchase if you donate items. Use plastic food containers to store leftovers or keep old bread bags to store baked goods. Keep the waxed bags inside boxes of crackers or cereal and use them to prevent foods from sticking together. For example, lay a waxed bag between layers of prepared hamburgers.  Keep empty diaper wipe boxes and store tissues, toys, or crayons in them. Plant small plants in old cans and bottles. Make a garden! If you do need to purchase things such as clothing, housewares, books, or appliances, buy them second-hand instead of ordering them new. This will save resources and packaging. To buy things used, check out:  Thrift or antique stores Garage sales Local newspaper listings Neighborhood exchanges Check with your sanitation company about what recyclables they accept. Some companies will let you mix recyclables in one bin while other companies want you to sort it. For example, you can mix paper, cardboard, and metal recyclables, but keep glass separate. You can usually recycle cans, paper, cardboard, plastic containers, metals, and glass. food waste instead of sending it to a landfill or incinerator.

Article in English: To deal with the pain caused by a sore throat, you may also want to take something for pain. Your physician may prescribe local painkillers to soothe the pain caused by the pus pockets or you can take an over the counter painkiller such as acetaminophen, ibuprofen or aspirin.  If your doctor says it's okay for you to take them, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a good option because they relieve both pain and inflammation. Follow the dosage instructions provided with your prescription or over the counter medicine. Do not exceed the recommended dosage. Do not take anything except for acetaminophen if you are pregnant. Throat lozenges containing an anesthetic can also be helpful for discomfort Prepare a mixture of one cup of warm water and one teaspoon of salt. Mix the solution until the salt is fully dissolved. Gargle with the mixture at least once per hour. The combination of salt and warm water should help to reduce pain and discomfort in your throat. Warm beverages will increase blood flow in your throat, making it easier for your body to fight the pus pockets. Drinking a cup of tea before bed (make sure it’s decaffeinated) will also help you get rid of some of the pain during your night’s sleep. Breathing dry air will not help at all with your condition; your throat may even become more irritated and painful. Using a vaporizer to moisten the air will ease throat irritation and pain. If you do not have a vaporizer, you can simply put a shallow dish of warm water in your room. The water will add moisture to the air as it evaporates. You may also want to try a humidifier, which is available in a cool or warm mist variety.

Article in English: To decrease the chance of the cat injuring himself during the seizure, look around for objects that he might thrash against. Try to move objects out of the cat's way rather than pick your cat up and remove him from danger. Touching your cat stimulates him, and in his neurologically sensitized state this could worsen the fit or extend its duration. For example, if your cat experiences a seizure near a sharp table leg, put a cushion between him and the table to act as padding, rather than picking your cat up. A seizuring cat is not conscious of what goes on around him. He lies on his side, his legs paddle and thrash, his jaw chomps, and he may lose control of his bladder and bowels.  In this state the cat has no conscious control of his actions and could easily bite or scratch anyone who touches him. The only is exception is if the cat is in danger of falling, which is covered in Step 4 of this section. Do not put your fingers near or in his mouth because the cat will bite down and not be able to let go until he recovers consciousness. Get everyone else to leave the room. It is normal to cry out when witnessing a beloved cat in the grip of a seizure, but this does not help the pet. To reduce the stimulation around your cat:  Turn off the television or radio. Switch off electric lights. Close the curtains. Avoid the temptation to talk to and soothe the pet. Sadly, this is another form of stimulation and you are likely to do more harm than good, unless he is in danger of falling (which is described in the next step). While you should try to avoid moving or touching your cat during a seizure, the exception is if he is in danger of injuring himself.  For instance, if your cat has a seizure whilst on a high window ledge use either a duvet cover, or a large, thick towel to cover and then pick up the cat. Doing this will hopefully protect you from accidental bites and scratches. With the cat still inside the towel carry him to a safe place, such as a flat, open space, and gently put him down. Make sure his head is...

Article in English: To determine if the feeling is mutual, pay attention to any signs your partner gives off. As you get to know your partner, you’ll also get to know their feelings towards you. If your partner does things to make you smile, looks at you longingly, and makes you a priority in their life, they likely feel strongly towards you. For example, if your partner cooks your favorite meal for dinner or talks about their feelings a lot with you, it may be a sign that they love you. The perfect time to confess your feelings will come to you intuitively. You’ll know when the time is right, based on your partner’s body language and your personal feelings. Signs that you truly love your partner include making them a priority, not looking for new people, and feeling a strong connection and attraction. Typically, you should tell your partner your feelings after you've spent enough time with them to know them well. The amount of time will depend on your particular relationship. Overall, you should wait to tell them you love them until you know your feelings are true and genuine. While it is wonderful to feel strongly about your partner after a few dates, avoid telling them you love them until you are certain. That way, your affection will not seem desperate or clingy. If you wait too long, you and your partner may grow apart, resulting in them moving on. They may get the wrong idea and think you're not into them if you don't express your feelings eventually. Find confidence in your feelings, rather than being scared to express your love. You may regret not opening up down the line.

Article in English: To determine if what you are looking at is a spider egg sac, consider the shape and texture. Spiders create egg sacs out of silk webbing, so the shape and texture may vary depending on the type of spider that created it. Some common spider egg sacs shapes include:  round ball a disc with a rounded part in the middle squishy pillow fluffy mass of silk a ball with tiny spikes all over it Spider egg sacs are small. They are often smaller than a quarter. Observe the size of the sac (or sacs) to determine if it might have been made by a spider.  For example, if you find something that is the size of a soccer ball, then this is not likely to be a spider egg sac. However, if you find something the size of a dime, then there is a good chance that it is a spider egg sac. A spider egg sac will be about as big as the spider that made it. For example, if you have spiders in your area that are about the size of golf balls, then the spider egg sacs may be about the same size. Keep in mind that some spiders make just one egg sac, while others make a several small ones. Most spiders create egg sacs that are white or off-white. However, this is not true of all egg sacs. Some eggs sacs are brown, yellow, or even yellowish green. Observe the color to determine if what you are looking at might be a spider egg sac. For example, if the color of the sac is pink or black, then it is probably not a spider egg sac. While some spiders carry their egg sacs around with them, most spiders leave their egg sacs suspended in a web. If you have spotted something that you think might be a spider egg sac, check to see if it is suspended in a web or attached to a wall or other surface with some silk webbing.  Some species of spider lay their eggs in sacs that are on the ground, so there might not always be visible webbing. The presence of baby spiders can also indicate that you have found an egg sac. Female spiders can lay hundreds of eggs in an egg sac, and when the eggs hatch, lots of tiny spiders may start crawling out of the sac. If you see...

Article in English: To determine sex, you are going to have to look at your hamster's hind end and underside. Your best bet is to wait until the hamster is alert and relaxed to examine it.  Grabbing a sleeping or stressed hamster is a good way to get bitten. Try giving your hamster a treat and some attention. Hamsters don’t like being turned upside down (which is exactly what you’re going to do) so petting your hamster and making him or her feel at ease will help this process go smoothly. This will give the hamster a soft place to land if it squirms away from you. It will also keep your hamster contained at the same time, making sure that it doesn't fall and then run away. To safely restrain the pet, approach the hamster calmly, and do not startle it.  Place the palm of one hand over the hamster with your thumb and forefinger resting right above the shoulder blades. Gently grasp the loose skin just above the shoulders between your thumb and forefinger to control the head and keep the hamster from biting you.  Do not pull on the skin or attempt to lift the animal by the scruff alone.  Do not grip the scruff too tightly, either, as this can pull back the eyelids and causes the eyeballs to pop out of the sockets. Use the rest of the hand to support the animal's body. Using your free hand to support the weight of the hamster, lift the hamster and turn it over so that its body is resting in the palm of the hand you are using to scuff it. Its entire body should be supported at this point.

Article in English: To determine the exact length of irrigation tubing you need to construct your hula hoop, stand up straight and measure the distance from your feet to your chest (or anywhere between your belly button and your chest). This measurement is the diameter of your ideal beginner hoop if you have a normal BMI. If you are overweight or obese you can calculate your ideal hoop size by multiplying your waist in inches by (1.2). (39"x1.2=45" hoop). You then need to calculate its circumference to know how much tubing you need. (circumference = pi (π=3.14) times the diameter: c=πd).  The average diameter of an adult hula hoop is 40”, so the circumference is 40 x 3.14 = 126”. The average diameter of a child’s hula hoop is 28” making the circumference about 28 x 3.14 = 88”. You'll need three things, all of which can be found in the plumbing section:  ¾" (19mm) 160 psi for a weighted hoop, 100 psi for a medium weight hoop (or any other pressure rating) irrigation tubing A PVC pipe cutter One ¾" (19mm) barbed coupling plastic pipe fitting If you don't want to buy a PVC pipe cutter, you can use regular scissors. However, scissors require more effort to cut the PVC pipe. If you have one already and you are handy with it, a hacksaw is another option – you just may need to debar any sharp ridges using sandpaper or a utility knife. In which case, you'll need sandpaper or a power sander. If you use a power sander, you'll need goggles to protect your eyes. As you can see, a pipe cutter is the easier way to go.

Article in English: To determine the volume of a rectangular tank, multiply the length (l) times the width (w) times the height (h). The width is the horizontal distance from side to side. The length is the longest dimension, and the height is the vertical length from top to bottom. For rectangular tanks, the filled volume is simply the same length and width with a shorter height. The new height is the fill height, d. Therefore, filled volume is equal to the length times the width times the fill height.
