Article in English: Once you have decided on your resume you can begin actually writing it up. Start by providing your full contact information at the top of the first page of your resume. Your contact information should include your name, address, telephone number, and email address.  If your resume extends beyond one page, ensure that your name is in a header on every page. Your email address should appropriate for a job application. Use your own name or initials if possible. Don’t use something jokey such as "sly-dude," "foxymama," or "smokinhot." After your contact information, you might want to include a one line objective that states you career goal. Employers have mixed opinions on the inclusion of an objective statement, so consider carefully whether or not it adds anything to your resume. If you do decide to include one, make it short and closely focussed to the position you are applying for.  For example, you might write that your objective is “To contribute to the design of new word processing software.” Alternatively it may state the position you hope to attain, such as “A position as in healthcare policy and research.” Objectives have become less common, and you may prefer to provide this information in your covering letter. The order you use for the following sections may vary, but in many instances you will start with a statement of your education and qualifications. Here you simply need to detail your qualifications at school and college as appropriate. List the colleges or technical schools you've attended, in reverse chronological order. Be sure to give the date you achieved your results.  You can include a bullet point or two to provide a little further information on your specialism, if it is appropriate for the position you are applying for. This section normally comes after your work history unless you're a recent college graduate, in which case it will generally precede it. If you achieved any honours or awards as part of your studying or training include these here. List the positions you've held in...

Article in English: Once you have described the work, it’s time to analyze it, or discuss how it all comes together. Start by talking about how the work is composed, keeping a few basic ideas in mind. For example:  Balance: How do the colors, shapes, and textures in the piece work together? Do they create a balanced or harmonious effect, or is the piece imbalanced in some way? Contrast: Does the work make use of contrasting colors, textures, or lighting? Contrast can also be found in the use of different shapes or contours, like jagged versus curved lines, or geometric versus natural shapes. Movement: How does the work create a sense of movement? Is your eye drawn through the composition in a particular way? Proportion: Do the sizes of the different elements in the work appear the way you would expect, or are they surprising? For example, if the work shows a group of people, do any of the figures look larger or smaller than they would in real life? Most works of art have one or more points that are designed catch your attention and draw your eye. In a portrait, this may be the face or eyes of the subject. In a still-life, it could be a centrally-placed or well-lit object. Try to identify which parts of the work are emphasized.  Look at the work and make note of which feature(s) jump out at you right away, or keep drawing your eye back to them. Ask yourself why your eye is attracted to the feature(s) in question. For example, if you find yourself fixating on one figure in a group, is it because that figure is larger than the others? Are they closer to the viewer? More brightly lit? Identify a few key themes, and discuss how the artist used the elements of design (color, light, space, shape, and line) to express these themes. Themes might include things like:  The use of a color scheme to give the work a particular mood or meaning. See, for example, the paintings of Picasso’s Blue Period.  Symbolism and religious or mythological imagery. For example, look at the use of figures and symbols from classical mythology in Renaissance...

Article in English: Once you have determined what the problem is you can extend an offer to help. Make sure that your offer is genuine--do not offer to help if you are unable to or do not sincerely want to. Instead, extend an sincere and concrete offer of assistance. For example, your elderly mother might be having difficulty taking care of her home. Ask her if she would like you to hire a cleaning service or help her find an assisted care living situation. Being empathetic means that you try to put yourself in the other person's shoes. Once you know why this person is cranky, try to think about how you would feel in their situation. Then try to determine what would make you feel better. Elderly people are often lonely and this can account for their unfriendly disposition. Offer your company, and suggest an activity the two of you can do together, such as playing a card game. You might not be able to solve the other person's problem. Especially if you do not know the elderly person well, the situation might be out of your hands. What you can do instead is ask for assistance. Try reaching out to close friends or relatives of the elderly person to see what they suggest. Most cities have senior centers where older people can go for recreational activities. Other organizations, such as churches and libraries, also offer programs geared towards seniors. You could look up some local resources and provide that information to your neighbor or relative. This could be potentially very helpful and go a long way towards lifting their mood. It can be very draining to deal with a cranky senior citizen. The most important thing you can do is to remain positive. Remember that you are doing a good thing by being kind and helpful. Even if your help is not obviously appreciated, you are probably making an impact. Smile. When it is difficult to remain positive, try putting a smile on your face. Even if it feels false at first, the simple act of smiling will make you feel better and help you maintain a good attitude.

Article in English: Once you have determined your face shape, try to find a hairstyle that suits the shape.  This may require patience, as you may find that you need to grow your hair longer in order to style it appropriately.  Here are suggestions for styles based on your face shape: Is your hair wavy, straight, textured, or curly? Is it fine, medium, or thick? Certain hairstyles will work better with your hair's natural tendencies and can make styling easier. While some of these styles work with any hair texture, most work best with a specific hair type. Evaluate what your hair naturally tends to do and find a hairstyle that complements those tendencies.  If you have straight hair of any consistency, consider choosing the Prohibition High-and-Tight, let it grow out (as long as it isn't fine), flow and comb it, or crop it.  The Prohibition High-and-Tight features very short sides while fading hair shorter into your nape and sideburns. The top should be a little longer, about an inch and a half. To style, use a gel to keep the top combed into place. Don't choose this look if you have wavy or curly hair. To let your hair grow out for a messy look, simply let your hair grow past your shoulders. Styling is simple, just towel dry your hair and apply a little texture cream.  The flow and comb starts with a square cut, but is longer on the sides and the top. Apply a mousse to your wet hair, then comb the hair back. Avoid this if you have curly hair. Cropped hair is essentially cut short evenly across the sides and the top. You don't really need styling products with this low-maintenance cut.    If you have curly or wavy hair, consider choosing a pompadour, let it grow out, or crop it.  The pompadour is simply a classic haircut. The blended cut should be done to a ratio of 2 to 1, top to sides. This basically means that you should leave the sides shorter than the top, but not drastically shorter. Style with a pomade and comb the top into place. Avoid this look if you have very fine, straight, or thin hair. To let your hair grow out for...

Article in English: Once you have developed underarm pimples, they can become inflamed and irritated. Apply aloe vera gel to the area to help soothe the skin and treat the acne. A baking soda scrub exfoliates the skin and leaves it soft, clean, and smooth. It can also help treat body acne. Combine two tablespoons of baking soda with a bit of water. Continue to add water and stir until a thick paste is formed. Apply to your underarm and let rest for 10 minutes before washing off with warm water. Do not apply this scrub more than twice a week. The combination of natural honey and turmeric works great for treating pimples. The turmeric controls sebum production and the honey works to moisten the skin. Mix together one teaspoon of turmeric and two tablespoons of natural honey.  Apply directly to the pimples and let rest for 15 minutes. Then wash it off with warm water. Repeat this process once every two days for optimal results. If you develop underarm pimples, apply a hydrocortisone cream directly to the area. You should continue to apply this cream for a few days until the irritation subsides. This cream can help reduce the itching and redness associated with underarm pimples.

You’re likely to feel some ache in your muscles the day after your baseline, which is perfectly normal. You may be itching to get started on doing more push-ups, but this routine will offer the best results if you do it three-to-four times per week so basically, every other day.

Article in English: Once you have done everything listed above, you are ready to send your fax. With the paper properly inserted and the number dialed, you are ready to press send. This button will usually be large and well-labeled. That’s it! You’ve sent your fax! You will notice that, after pressing send, the machine will make a series of beeps and whirring sounds. This is normal. These sounds are how the fax machines communicate with each other. When a fax has successfully gone through, you will usually hear a long, clear beep after a few minutes. When a fax encounters a problem and does not go through, you will usually hear it make a horrible sort of death-keen. If you hear this horrible sound, you should check on the fax machine to assess the problem. It is also possible to use the internet to send materials to a fax machine. There are a number of services which can be used, most of which cost money. This can be a wise investment, however, if you do not send faxes very often and do not wish to buy a fax machine or deal with services like FedEx.  PamFax is an excellent faxing service for Skype. This program charges a small fee, however. HelloFax is a service which integrates well Google Drive, allowing you to easily fax Google documents. It includes a certain number of free faxes and then charges a fee. Depending on the number you are sending the fax to, it may be possible to simply email the file to the fax machine at no charge. However, you should keep in mind that this method only covers a limited number of fax numbers and can only send limited information.  You can check if the fax number is covered by looking online.  Use this formula to create the address to which you will send the email: “remote-printer.First_Last@12345678910.iddd.tpc.int” Remove the quotations, exchange the numbers for the fax number (including country and area code), and first and last for the name of the person you are sending it to. Note that only the text in the text box will appear on the fax. You cannot attach PDFs or any other material with...

Article in English: Once you have established some stock holdings, and you have a handle on how the buying and selling works, you should diversify your stock portfolio. This means that you should put your money in a variety of different stocks.  Start-up companies might be a good choice after you have a base of older-company stock established. If a startup is bought by a bigger company, you could potentially make a lot of money very quickly. However, be aware that 90% of startup companies last fewer than 5 years, which makes them risky investments.  Consider looking into different industries as well. If your original holdings are mostly in technology companies, try looking into manufacturing or retail. This will diversify your portfolio against negative industry trends. When you sell your stock (hopefully for a lot more than you bought it for), you should roll your money and profits into buying new stocks. If you can make a little money every day or every week, you’re on your way to stock market success. Consider putting a portion of your profits into a savings or retirement account. An IPO is the first time a company issues stock. This can be a great time to buy stock in a company you believe will be successful, as the IPO offering price often (but not always) turns out to be the lowest price ever for a company’s stock. The only way to make a lot of money in the stock market is to take risks and get a little bit lucky. This does not mean you should stake everything on risky investments and hope for the best, though. Investing should not be played the same way as gambling. You should research every investment thoroughly and be sure that you can recover financially if your trade goes poorly.  On one hand, playing it safe with only established stocks will not normally allow you to "beat the market" and gain very high returns. However, those stocks tend to be stable, which means you have a lower chance of losing money. And with steady dividend payments and accounting for risk, these companies can end up being a much better...

Article in English: Once you have established the premise and purpose of your TED talk, you should craft an outline to present your idea in a way that your audience will care about and understand the facts behind them and how it will affect them if they choose to embrace it.  Your outline, however, should be something your audience can discern without being obvious. In other words, you don't tell them what you're going to say before you say it (no “Here's what I'm going to share with you today”) and what you've said after you say it (no “And in conclusion …”).  If you've been scheduled to speak at a TED event, your outline, or a full script, needs to be sent to the event organizer about two months in advance of your appearance. This lets the event organizers provide preliminary feedback. Your introduction should grab your audience by presenting your idea as quickly as possible without drawing excessive attention to yourself as the speaker.  If your idea is one your audience knows is relevant to them, state it clearly early on. If it's not one your audience realizes is relevant to them, show them how it relates to something they do know is relevant to them, If your idea is an emotionally heavy one, start with an understated but forthright approach. Let your audience come to feel about the topic instead of dictating their emotions. Avoid using a string of statistics. A single relevant fact carries more weight, particularly if it comes as a surprise to your audience. List out what the audience already knows and what they need to know, then organize this information into a series of points, where each point presents information that will help your audience grasp the next point. As you do this, weed out information that your audience doesn't need to know, even if you may think it's important.  Keep and devote more time in your talk to information that's new to your audience and eliminate and devote less time to things they've already heard. Use more evidence that's supported by your own and your audience's observations and experience...

Article in English: Once you have finished removing all the ticks, make sure that they are all thoroughly sealed in the jar of alcohol. Put the lid on the jar and leave them in there for a day or so. When you are sure they are all dead, you can throw them in an outdoor trash can. Ticks can carry many diseases, particularly Lyme Disease. After removing ticks, make an appointment with the vet to ensure that nothing has been transmitted to your pet. It can be helpful to your vet if you save a few of the dead ticks when you go to dispose of them. Place them in a plastic bag and bring them to the vet. By identifying the type of tick(s), your vet will have an easier time assessing the potential for disease transmission. Anytime you take your dog for a hike or let him play in some tall grass where you know ticks are prevalent, you should check your pup for ticks. Depending on the area, certain ticks are more likely during different seasons. This information can be found through your local cooperative extension office, online, or from your veterinarian. Avoiding ticks is the most effective way to keep ticks off your dog. Apply an effective and safe tick and flea control product to your dog. There are spot-on products, oral products, and collars to help manage ticks on your dog. Consult with your vet before administering a new medication. Other ways to keep your dog and home tick free include:  Keeping your grass and weeds trimmed to below ankle height. Securing your trash cans with strong lids and take out any rock piles and brushy cover. This helps keep away rodents that may carry ticks. Staying on the trails when hiking with your pet and making sure that your pet remains with you. Avoid wooded areas and long grasses where ticks are common. If your dog runs off the trail (as they often do), make sure to check him for ticks when you get home.

Article in English: Once you have finished the planning phase, you should be able to create your model. Use your diagram, data, and other information to make your mathematical model. Make sure to check your notes often to ensure accuracy.  Make sure that your model represents the actual relationship among your data that you are trying to accomplish. For more advanced models, you may need to use a computer program. It is important to verify the validity of your model’s results before you try to do anything else with your model. Apply your data and see if the model is valid. Are your results what you expected? Do they make sense? Are the results repeatable?  Solve the equation V = h x w x l to determine if your results make sense. Repeat the solution to determine if your results are repeatable. In order to make your model useful for further applications, you need to consider how it could be improved. Are there any variables that you should have considered? Are there any restrictions that could be lifted? Try to find the best way to improve upon your model before you use it again.  For example, if you want to have 3 feet (0.91 m) of space to walk through your storage unit, you could adjust your equation to account for that space. Just deduct the space you will lose from the appropriate number in your equation. In this case, you could adjust your equation to read V = h x (w-3) x l  After you have identified ways to improve your model, make the changes and test it again.

Article in English: Once you have found a good beginner’s pointe class, go to the store and buy your pointe shoes. Talk to a salesperson at the store and ask for assistance.  Make sure that your pointe shoes fit your feet snugly. They should make your feet look long and thin. If you have soft arches, make sure that the shoe you get has a soft shank. Some good shoes for people with soft arches are Capezio, Mirella, and Bloch Sonata. If you have strong arches, you should try Grishko and Russian Pointe. Don’t buy the shoes online. Pointe shoes are extremely hard to fit, and you should take at least a half hour with the salesperson to find the right fit. Don’t try to purchase shoes in a larger size, expecting that you will grow into them. The shoes should fit perfectly and be slightly difficult to put on. Once you have found a good pair of pointe shoes, go and check with your instructor. Do whatever your instructor says. If you need to go get different ones, go get different ones. Your instructor’s discretion is the most important information you can get for your safety and comfort. If possible, have your teacher come with you to buy your first pair. Break in the shoes correctly. A good way to break in your pointe shoes is to use your hands and roll through the arch. Try to break them in with your hands first, at home, before you wear them into the studio. Normally your teacher will show you how to sew them, but if he/she does not, then look up videos on YouTube. Note: some brands, such as Gaynor Mindens, do not require breaking in. Do research before attempting any type of method on your shoes.  As important as it is to break in the shoes, don't overdo it until you are experienced with pointe shoes. Never break in your shoes sickled or it is just a wasted pair of pointe shoes. Don’t use gel pads for beginning with. You need to feel the floor. Instead, use a thin foam, wool, or fabric padding.

Article in English: Once you have gotten your hamster out of their cage, take them a quiet place. Go someplace small, where they can’t get lost, and where this isn’t anything that could hurt them. Usually a good place for this is the bathroom. Set your hamster on your lap and allow them to crawl on you. Interact with your hamster using slow, gentle movements. It is important to avoid making the hamster anxious and therefore aggressive. Anytime you play with your hamster, keep your motions even and smooth. Anytime the hamster comes close to biting you, you can discipline them by blowing in their face. One, brisk exhale into your hamsters face should deter them from biting, and act as a form a discipline to help show him that biting is wrong. Each night at your designated “hamster time,” take your hamster out of their cage and interact with them 10-20 minutes. When you are finished, gently transfer them back into their cage. Do this each night for two weeks. If you stick to program and spend quality time with your hamster each night, they will most certainly become tame and refrain from biting. It will take some patience, however, because this will not happen overnight. If you become frustrated with your hamster, they are likely to become frustrated as well. Stay calm, and they will stay calm too.

Article in English: Once you have identified your animal, learn everything you can about it. What does it eat, and where does it live? Read about its history, behaviors, and the way it is portrayed in literature and the media. What does this animal represent?  An animal's particular wisdom is called its "medicine," or power. This medicine can be used to help during a time of need. For example, a hawk's medicine might be its ability to see clearly when others cannot. If possible, spend time near your animal's habitat. Do not be disruptive, but try to learn as much as you can about how the animal exists in the wild. Take what you have learned and use it to help you deal with making big decisions, confronting difficult situations, and reaching your goals. You can draw on your animal's wisdom in everyday life, too, in your treatment of others and the earth. Pay close attention each time your animal appears to you in any form. Do your best to interpret the messages the animal seems to be sending. Remember, the messages will not be straightforward, since animals do not communicate the same way humans do, so you will have to do some deep thinking to understand. Here are some questions to ask yourself:   What emotions do you feel when the animal comes? Does the animal seem to be a sign of foreboding or comfort? Does the animal seem to be leading you in a certain direction? It is believed in shamanism that you gain a deeper connection with your spiritual animal by honoring it. In doing this, you are letting it know that its assistance in helping you with your life is appreciated. You can do this by standing up for the environment and animal rights and, in particular, the well being of your spirit animal. Remember that each time an animal species goes extinct, we lose the wisdom of that animal.

Article in English: Once you have listened to the other person, consider how you can address the situation.  If you believe the other person has a valid grievance with you, accept it. Admit your own wrongdoing and ask what you can do to make amends.  Don’t make excuses or be defensive. This will often make the other person even angrier, because s/he will feel as though you are dismissing his or her needs. Be reasonable, and communicate calmly and clearly. Try to keep your solution focused on what the other person communicated to you. For example, if the other person is angry because your child threw a ball through the window, state what you are willing to do. For example: “My daughter threw a ball through your window and broke it. I can have a repairman come out and replace it in two days. Or, you can have your handyman replace it and send me the bill.” If the other person is not happy with the solution you suggest, ask him or her to suggest a resolution s/he would be happy with. For example, you could ask something like "What would you like to see happen in this situation?"  Try to present this as a “we”-focused solution to encourage collaboration. For example, “Okay, if my suggestion isn’t acceptable, I’d still like to see if we can find a way to address this problem. What can we do to address this situation?”  If the other person suggests something you find unreasonable, don’t start calling names. Instead, present a counter offer. For example: "I heard you say that you want me to fix the broken window and pay for carpet cleaning for your entire house. I think it would be fair for me to replace the broken window and pay to have the living room carpet cleaned. How does that sound?" Trying to find common ground between you and the angry person can help redirect the interaction towards a solution. For example, you could say something such as "I understand that fairness is important to you. It is to me as well…" This can help communicate that you are working toward the same goal. ” “But” is known as a “verbal eraser,” because it...

Article in English: Once you have observed situations involving sharing, you should be able to determine which issues seem to cause trouble for particular toddlers. Is one child especially protective of a particular toy? Consider letting him or her put that toy away somewhere, off limits, during a play date. Plan to let toddlers play together when they are rested and when they have been fed. Hungry, tired, cranky toddlers are guaranteed to fight over toys. Limit play time to one to two hours for toddlers; anything longer is expecting too much from a young child. Whenever toddlers are playing together, it is best to have clear, simple rules in place. Any toys that are not meant to be shared should be put away elsewhere. All remaining toys should then be shared, with no exceptions. Consider setting a timer for popular toys, and enforce consistent limits. When a child has to give up his or her favorite toy temporarily, offer interesting replacements. If you give a toddler something fun to do, he or she may be too distracted to argue about the original toy. Generally, it's best to have lots of choices available. Have enough options around to have multiple alternatives for each toddler. Instead of grabbing toys from other children, toddlers should be taught to ask for them. Model appropriate language for toddlers: “may I have a turn, please?” If toddlers play a game that requires more than one person, whether it's a ball game or a board game, they will be less likely to fight.

Article in English: Once you have opened the gift, immediately thank the giver. If you open and then pause, you will seem disappointed. Look your gift giver in the eye while you thank them! If you don't like the present, you probably won't make properly admiring faces while you look at it—but you can always look into the face of your gift giver and appreciate their kindness. If you are a good actor, grin or beam at the person who got you the gift. It might help to remind yourself that they were trying to make you happy! That alone is a gift. Only smile if you can do it while feeling relatively natural. Don't force a smile! It will look fake. If you are a bad actor, one way to hide your face and your disappointment while also displaying gratitude is to give the gift giver a hug. If you are on hugging terms with the person, immediately hug them after you open the present. A hug is truthful—it's a loving way for you to tell them you appreciate the love behind the gift. You don't need to feign excitement. Instead, summon up warmth for the sweetness of the gift-giver, who is trying to please you by giving you a gift. Think to yourself,"they were trying to please me by giving me this." If you can, smile. If you're a bad actor, just thank them.

Try to aim for everything being ready to be put on the table about five minutes before you plan to eat.  For example, if the rice needs to cook for an hour but the chicken only bakes for fifteen minutes, you'll need to start them at different times. To help plan out your cooking schedule:  Write down how long everything takes to cook and then begin cooking them in the order from longest time to shortest time. If you need to boil something, don’t forget to factor in the time it will take for the water to heat up to a boil (generally around 10 minutes). The same goes for heating up the oven (this will depend on your oven and the temperature you are heating it to). If your timing is slightly off and one dish is done before the rest,  try to keep it warm by placing the food in a covered container. You can also keep things warm by sticking them in the oven on a low temperature, but do not keep dishes in the oven for too long or they could dry out. You can also keep items you cooked on the stovetop warm by turning the heat to low. Try to avoid relying on the microwave to warm things up if you can help it. Everyone has a different opinion about how much salt is too much salt. Try to err on the side of too little salt, as this can always be remedied by adding more. Place a salt shaker on the table so that your partner can choose to add salt if he or she feels like it. If you the food you are cooking is hot, consider putting it in serving dishes that will keep it warm until you are ready to eat. On the other hand, if your appetizers, or even your main dish,...

Article in English: Once you have practiced visualization, remembering dreams, and checking reality, you can start focusing on a particular kind of flight. If you have flown before in your dreams, you might try to replicate that way of flying. Have you soared like an eagle? Floated like a bubble? Swum through the air? Imagine how you are going to fly, and where. Don't set a timeline for your goal. It can take anywhere from a few days of to a few months to have your first lucid dream. Once you start trying, proceed calmly, and try one method at a time. If your goal is to float, to fly, or to soar in your sleep, repeat that to yourself after you have gotten in bed. Say "I am going to fly in my dream" or "when I dream I will notice, when I notice I'll fly." Recite your goal in your head, calmly and firmly. Alternate with visualization. Imagine yourself falling asleep and having a dream. Visualize yourself realizing that you are dreaming, perhaps by doing a reality check or noticing something strange in the landscape. Picture yourself flying, then, and imagine every detail you would see.  Try going back and forth between picturing your lucid flying dreams and reciting your goal. If you fall asleep doing this, you may increase your chances of having a lucid dream.

Article in English: Once you have selected your hotel room, you can reserve it online through the hotel website. You will need to provide basic information about yourself for the booking, such as your full name and your travel dates.  You can also reserve the room by calling the hotel directly. Try to call late evening as mornings and mid afternoons can be busy for the front desk. If you are looking for a group rate for a conference or a wedding, call the hotel directly and speak to the front desk. Many hotels do not advertise group rates online and can often offer you better rates over the phone. Many online bookings will require payment via a credit card. If you are traveling on a business trip, you may use the company credit card to pay for the hotel.   Always check if your credit card or AAA provider offers any discounts on hotels so that you can use them when you pay for the room. If you are staying at the hotel for an extended period of time, you may be able to pay for the first 2 to 3 nights upfront and then cover the rest of your stay once you get to the hotel. You will then be required to leave your credit card number on file and settle your bill at the front desk on your check out day. This includes your travel dates and agreed-upon room rates. The hotel should specify all regulatory fees and charges before you pay for the room or reserve the room. Extra fees, such as a cleaning fee or a parking fee, should be explained to you by the hotel so you are not surprised by any hidden fees when you check out.

Article in English: Once you have spent some time thinking about your personal values, it's time to figure out how to integrate them with the rest of your family. In order to do that, you all need to effectively communicate with each other. Begin the process by asking questions.  Ask your family to join you for a discussion about values. Begin by asking open ended questions such as, "What is most important to our family?" You can also try, "What brings you happiness? How does that affect our family?" Other good questions to ask include, "What makes you most proud about our family?" or "What do you look forward to when you come home?" You could also try "What embarrasses you about our family?" and "What does our family provide for you that you don't get from friends?" Consider having each family member answer these questions individually. Then you can openly and honestly compare answers. Encourage your family members to ask questions, too. During your family discussion, it is important that you all practice good listening skills. To indicate that you are listening, ask follow up questions. For example, if your partner says he values honesty, ask him how that can become more of a focus for the family.  You can also use non-verbal cues to indicate that you are listening. Nod your head when someone is speaking, and smile to indicate you appreciate what is being said. Try to limit interruptions. Ask everyone to put away their cell phones and turn off the tv while you are having this important conversation. Once you have spent some time discussing your family values and enjoying quality time together, you can begin the process of more clearly defining your family values. Take some time to sit down together and make a list of the values that are most important. You can think of these values as firm guidelines that your family is agreeing to live by.  Writing things down can help your family gain mental clarity about shared values. Try writing down items such as "help society" or "religion/spirituality" or "honest communication with...

Article in English: Once you have succeeded in cleaning up your language in one situation (say in front of your nephew), add new situations week by week.  For example, if you successfully did not cuss in front of your nephew all week. Next week do that, and do not swear when near playgrounds. If you are not successful at your first goal, then that means your challenge was too big. Make it more manageable. Instead of never cussing in front of your nephew, make your goal smaller. Such as, "I will not cuss before 8 am", or "I will not cuss at the drive through window". Pick a  time frame and situation that you know you can do, then expand the challenge from there, week by week. . The key to success is to pick manageable situations and time frames to improve in. It will take time but slowly you will ease out of the cussing habit. It may take years before not cussing becomes your new habit. Self-improvement is always difficult but undeniably worth the effort.

Article in English: Once you have taken time to consider your feelings and evaluate your influences, you may still be considering having sex. If you decide that you are ready and do not feel that your partner or friends are pressuring you, talk to your partner about how you feel.  Try saying something like, “I think I might be ready to start having sex. How do you feel about that?” Keep in mind that even if you feel ready, your partner might not feel the same way. If your partner says he/she is not ready, be respectful of his/her choice. If your partner is ready to start having sex too, you should find out about your partner’s sexual history. To protect yourself, it is important to know how many sexual partners your partner has had as well as whether or not your partner has ever had a sexually transmitted infection or STI. Try saying something like, “I understand if you are a bit uncomfortable discussing this with me, but I would like to know more about your sexual history. Have you ever had sex before? If so, how many people? Have you ever had an STI?” Before you enter into a sexual relationship with someone, it is important to think about how you would handle serious consequences such as pregnancy or infection. Do you both have health care providers or a clinic that you could go to for treatment? Are you both willing to accept the risk of pregnancy or infection as part of a sexual relationship? Carefully consider the potential consequences of sex and how you would deal with them. After you have considered the potential negative outcomes of sex, take time to discuss your desires and expectations for sex as well. Talk about what you want the experience to be like, the first time and beyond. Ask your partner to share his/her expectations as well. For example, do you have certain positions or other things that you want to try while having sex? Do you want to snuggle in bed for a while after sex? Do you want a monogamous relationship with your partner? Before you have sex, you should also figure what you are going to do to protect...

Article in English: Once you have the date, guest list and venue confirmed, it’s time to send out invitations. Invitations can be sent out in a number of different ways: you can make or buy physical invitations, invite people online using e-mail or Facebook or call the people you’re inviting directly.  Send out invitations roughly four weeks before the date of the party. Make sure to ask people to RSVP by a certain date so you can get an accurate headcount. Remind people that this is a surprise. You don’t want someone accidentally ruining the party. Make a note on the invite for people to park away from the venue. You don’t want a bunch of cars ruining the surprise. The menu for the party will depend on the size of the guest list and the party’s venue. Some venues insist that you use their food and beverages, whereas others will allow you to cater or hire someone else to cater your event.  If you are planning a party at home or at a venue that allows outside food, make a list of what you want to cook or order. Consider having a potluck. This will take some of the pressure off you to cater the entire party. Plus, people like being able to contribute something to the event. Plan the menu and order any catering you might need four weeks before the party. Decide if you are going to order a cake or make one on your own. A homemade cake can be more sentimental, but it may take more time. If you're already busy planning a party, ordering a cake may make more sense. Party decorations are a chance for you to really get creative and have fun. Try to make the decorations personal to your mom and her interests – if she loves gardening, plan to incorporate a lot of flowers into your décor.  If you want to keep the decorations simple, plan for balloons, streamers and possibly a banner of some kind. If you’re holding the party outside, make sure to decorate with things that won’t get blown around. As the party is for your mother, see if you can think of sentimental decorations. Your mother may appreciate decorations that show her how much you...

Article in English: Once you have the item on, make an assessment as to whether it truly fits you. You should be able to move around comfortably in the item and it should flatter your figure. You should not hang on to clothing that is too small, too big, or unflattering. If the item doesn’t fit, get rid of it! If you decide to get an item tailored, make sure you do it within two weeks. If you don’t get around to it, get rid of the item. Generally speaking, you should not hang on to clothing that is no longer in style. These items are taking up valuable real estate in your closet. For example, if your closet is filled with mom jeans from the late 1990s, you should probably donate them. You can then use the space for jeans that flatter your figure and are in style. If an item fits, you will next need to think about the last time you wore it. If you can’t remember when you wore it last, get rid of it! If you wore the item within the last year, and you still have a use for it, keep it. Try putting all your hangers in the same position when you hang the clothes up after the closet clean-up. After you wear an item, flip the hanger in the opposite direction. At the end of the year, get rid of all clothes that have hangers that haven't been flipped. Look over the item carefully for any signs of damage. Keep your eyes peeled for stains, rips, and holes. Depending on the degree of damage, you will want to donate, recycle, or throw the item out. If you can repair the item, make a plan to do so within the next week. You can sell clothing that is in good shape, of high quality, and in style. Try selling higher end clothing online through a website like eBay, ThredUp, or Poshmark. You can also take clothes to local consignment stores, or have a yard sale. Find a local charity that is accepting clothing donations. You can take all the clothes you no longer want and cannot sell to the charity. For example, you can try calling the local women’s shelter to find out if they are currently accepting clothing donations. Do not donate significantly...

Article in English: Once you have the sickening realization that you're falling through the ice and into the cold water, you need to brace yourself and consciously stop your reflex to gasp and breathe in if your head gets submerged. The shock of being in freezing water should not be underestimated, as it causes immediate changes to your breathing and heart rate.  Once in the cold water, your body's cold shock response, called the "torso reflex," will make you want to gasp for air and hyperventilate because your heart rate accelerates rapidly, but you must avoid doing so, especially if you're underwater. This initial shock typically wears off in one to three minutes as your body slightly acclimatizes to the cold. Although the initial cold shock passes, you're still in grave danger of quickly developing hypothermia, which means your body loses heat faster than it produces it. Just a 4-degree drop in body temperature can trigger hypothermia. The physical pain of being submerged in freezing water combined with all the physiological changes in response to "cold shock" (increased heart and breathing rates, high blood pressure, adrenaline release) can easily lead to panic. However, remaining calm and controlling your breathing allows you to think better and develop a plan to get out of the water. You don't have a lot of time, but likely more time than a panicky mind perceives.  Hypothermia occurs as your body temperature passes below 95°F (35°C), but it takes some time to get there and depends on many factors. Keeping your head above water and as much of your body as possible out of the water will buy you more time. Depending on multiple factors such as physical conditioning, the amount of body fat, type and layering of clothing, ambient temperature,  and wind chill, it can take between 10 to 45 minutes to develop hypothermia and lose consciousness in cold water. Remove any heavy objects or clothing that are weighing you down, such as a backpack, fanny pack or skis. This will reduce your risk of drowning. Once you have calmed down and...

Article in English: Once you have the solution of of your riddle, you will work backward to creating the riddle. Try to choose something easy to personify, as personification (the ascription of human-like qualities to non-human things) is a very common technique in riddle-making. For example, you could choose "a pencil" as your solution, because most people will be familiar with it. Compile these ideas in a list. Try to think of verbs and adjectives, in particular. Think of synonyms with multiple meanings and write them down.  For "pencil," some items for your list could include: "No. 2" (the most common type of writing pencil)), "wood," "rubber," "yellow," "pink hat" (the eraser), "looks like the letter 'l' or the number '1'" (physical aspects of the pencil's shape). You could also include other aspects of your pencil: for example, it needs to be sharpened as it writes which means it will get shorter over time the more it's used (a possible paradox). Another common trick is to think of things your item can do: for example, a pencil is small but contains all things (because you can write "all things" with a pencil). Riddles use metaphors to describe familiar things in unfamiliar ways. Think about the list of ideas you created in the last step. If your solution is “pencil,” think of words you could use to create a metaphorical description: “hand-stick” or “yellow sword” are fanciful, but still offer clues to the solution.  Here is a riddle that uses metaphor to describe a pencil: "A golden sword that wears a rosy hat, it is two trees, both Number 1 and Number 2." The pencil is a "sword" because it is pointed sharply at one end. This description also plays with the common saying, "The pen is mightier than the sword," and may help provide a clue. The "rosy hat" refers to the eraser. The "two trees" are cedar (the most common type of wood used for pencils), and rubber (the type of tree that produces rubber for erasers). The pencil looks like the numeral "1" but is actually a "#2" pencil. This description is a double pun, because the...

Article in English: Once you have the story idea, think about what is at the heart of your story. Ask yourself, “What are the themes in the story?” “What larger issues does the story address?” Identifying the emotional core of the story will help you focus your writing and create content that addresses the emotional aspect of the musical. For example, the musical Sweeney Todd is, at the surface, about a Victorian barber out to kill the men who stole his wife and sent him to prison on false charges. But at the heart, the musical is about the high cost of revenge and how anger and resentment can ruin your present day life. . One way to help you write the musical is to create storyboards or visual representations of each scene. You can draw on regular sheets of paper or get larger paper to write on. Storyboarding each scene can help you get a better sense of your character’s actions and motivations. It can also make it easier to write the music and the songs for the musical. You may try writing down a rough list of scenes for the musical and then creating storyboards for each scene. Try to get the essential visual elements for each scene on the storyboard. Don’t be afraid to use many storyboards for each scene, as the more detailed you are, the more depth the musical will have. The most important element of a musical is the musical score. There are four types of musicals: all-sung, operas, integrated, and unintegrated. Musicals that are all-sung means there is no dialogue at all and the entire script is sung. Operas are also all sung. The most popular form is integrated, where the music and the dialogue are integrated together in one show.  If you have written music before, you may try writing music for each scene that you have storyboarded. Or you may start by writing one to two pieces that you feel are key to the musical, such as the musical theme for the show. You may also try using music writing software on your computer that helps you translate humming, singing, or whistling into written music. This may be ideal if you have...

Article in English: Once you have thoroughly cleaned the pan, you can begin the process of seasoning it and reviving its non-stick surface. Place the clean, dry pan on the stovetop over low heat and let it warm. While the pan is warming, preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit (148.88 C). You will bake the oil into the pan to thoroughly coat the bottom. Pour a non-salted vegetable oil into the pan. Use enough so that the oil coats the entire bottom of the pan and is about a ½ inch (1.27 cm) high. After pouring the oil into the pan, place the pan in the oven and let it heat for 2 hours. The heat of the oven will let the vegetable oil bake into and coat the bottom of the pan.  Only use this method if you have a pan that is oven-safe. The oven doesn't have to be completely preheated before you put in the pan. After two hours, turn the oven off. Instead of taking out the non-stick pan, leave the pan in overnight to keep it heating and drying. After leaving the pan inside the oven overnight, take the pan out. Your non-stick pan should be revived and ready to use!

Article in English: Once you have visualized the type of person you want to be, it is time to figure out how to become that person. You will be greatly aided in achieving this giant task by breaking down into more digestible, manageable, and concrete parts. The trick to setting personal goals is to make sure they’re meaningful to you and to break them down into things you can actually accomplish.  For example, if realizing your full potential means mastering the violin, that’s an overall goal. You will need to further break this down into objectives (actions you can take) and tasks (specific, small things to do) to accomplish it. So, if your goal is to master the violin, objectives could be learning vibrato, studying the works of various composers and taking lessons. Breaking those down, you could set tasks for yourself. Breaking down “taking lessons” into tasks could include tasks such as locating a violin teacher in your area, determining how to afford lessons, buying a violin, etc. Figure out which of your goals are most important to you. Which goals would you be most excited to accomplish first? Which are attainable based on your current time, financial, and/or other resources? Do certain goals need to be accomplished before others? Focusing on improving one or two areas will keep you from feeling overwhelmed. When you feel overwhelmed, you may be tempted to abandon pursuing your goals because you think they can’t be achieved.  For example, if for you mastering the violin meant accomplishing the goals of learning vibrato, learning all the Vivaldi songs, and learning how to tune the violin, you might place tuning the violin as the most important goal, followed by learning vibrato, then learning all the Vivaldi songs. In some cases, some goals are necessary to learn before you can tackle the others. Since Vivaldi songs make use of the vibrato skill, you need to know vibrato before you can fully play Vivaldi. As you get started, be sure to rank highly a goal that is somewhat easily attainable so you can have an early success...

Article in English: Once you have washed, peeled, and pitted the apricots, use your paring knife to slice it into small pieces. The cuts don’t have to be perfectly even, since you’ll be pureeing the fruit after you cook it, but aim for pieces that are roughly 1 inch (2.5 cm) square. Place the mixture in a saucepan, cover it, and turn it to medium-low heat. Allow the apricots to simmer until they are soft. Depending on the ripeness, this may take anywhere from 5-15 minutes. Apricots are tart, so you may want to add a little sugar to balance out the flavor of your puree. Use a long-handled spoon to stir the sugar into the mixture, and allow the apricots to continue simmering until the sugar is dissolved. You can also use honey, brown sugar, or corn syrup if you prefer. Blend the mixture until it’s smooth, although you can leave it a little chunky if that’s the consistency you prefer. You can also mash with a potato masher if you prefer a chunky puree or if you don’t have a food processor. When the puree freezes, the moisture in the apricots will expand. Try to leave at least 1⁄4 inch (0.64 cm) of space at the top of the container to account for this. Apricot puree will keep in the freezer for 6-8 months.

Article in English: Once you have your basket assembled, you're ready to start wrapping. Items can jut out a bit, but not too much. And don't worry about your basket's shape; any shape and size basket will work. Here's what you'll need:  Arranged basket Printed cellophane, shrink wrap, or wrapping paper (triple the amount of the size of the basket) Clear tape Scissors Twist tie, pipe cleaner, anything to cinch wrap together Bow Packing tape (optional). Spread it out on an even surface and place the basket in the middle on all sides. If the basket is absolutely huge, you may need another piece of cellophane, under the basket horizontally. Again, on all sides. That means it needs to be centered on the right and left and top and bottom. You'll probably only have a few inches on the sides, and that's fine. But as for the front and back of the basket, center it on your sheet so there's 10-12" (30 cm, or a bit under) on either side. This will cover the front and back of your basket and leave plenty of room at the top for some pretty frills.  When you've found these measurements, cut your cellophane (or shrink wrap, etc.) to size. Again, if your basket is of titanic proportions, cut another sheet of similar size to cover the sides. Make sure all four sides are even. Line up the edges to be sure, and readjust as necessary.

Article in English: Once you have your story set, read through your manuscript to check specifically for spelling and grammar errors. In addition to misspelled words and common grammar errors, check for overused words, commonly confused words (like there/their/they're), and awkward or long sentences.  Spell check is a useful tool, but it won't catch everything. Re-read your manuscript a few times to make sure you've caught all the basic errors. Give yourself a few days in between each read so that you can come at your manuscript with fresh eyes each time. Remember, long or complicated sentence may confuse young readers. One of the challenges in writing for children is communicating complicated stories clearly and concisely. Start by giving your manuscript to family and friends. It isn’t always easy to get a straightforward reaction from loved ones who might want to save your feelings, so consider joining a writing workshop or forming a writer’s group so you’ll be able to get honest feedback on your manuscript.  Remember to show your book to your primary audience: children. Read  your manuscript to kids and pay attention to whether they seem to “get it,” which parts make them bored, and so on. Consider whether your book appeals to parents, teachers and librarians. They are the ones who will be purchasing your book, so it should be interesting to them, too. Once you’ve got feedback from a variety of sources, edit your manuscript again.

Article in English: Once you identify a process to fix, discuss the process with the people responsible for implementation. Take the time to interview key participants, and ask them to identify any potential improvements.  Ask your staff what they do and why they do it. Determine the inputs needed to perform each task and where you obtain each input. If you manufacture denim jeans, for example, you need to know who supplies your denim and how often the vendor ships the denim material to you. Identify the outputs of each task, and who receives the output. If you manage a car repair shop, your repair staff should document the work they perform. The repair staff should forward that information to your billing department. The billing area produces a bill for the customer Ask for suggestions on how to resolve process inefficiencies that your staff uncovers. A process flowchart can help you visualize a business process. You can use the documentation from your process discussions to create the flowchart. The flowchart should contain all of the steps required to complete a particular business process.  It is important to note that a business process flowchart should only contain the defined procedures that employees must follow. Flowcharts may be prepared manually or with the use of software. Word processors and spreadsheet programs with charting functionality can be used. You can also find software that is designed to draw flowcharts. The flowchart is an excellent tool to clearly see the business process in front of you. This visual tool can make it is much easier to identify and fix inefficiencies. Once you make changes to a process, review the outcomes and see if the process made the improvements you expected. If not, analyze the process again and try to identify areas of improvement.

That said, if you want to be sensitive about it, then you have to put some thought into finding the right time and place to tell her. You don’t want to catch her off guard if she’s in the middle of talking to her friends and you try to pull her away, or if she’s prepping for her math test next period. Instead, pick a place that will give you some privacy and a time when she’s not distracted, busy, or stressed out. That being said, you can’t wait forever to tell her the news. You don’t have to wait for the situation to be perfect in order to tell her how you feel. Just make sure that you have some privacy and that she doesn’t seem too upset. Though you don’t want to lead her on by telling her she’s the most beautiful girl you’ve ever seen, you may want to soften her up a bit before you tell her you don’t like her. Just say something like, “You know I think you’re an amazing girl” or “I always love talking to you” to let her know that you do care for her without saying anything that sounds too romantic. Choose your words carefully in advance so you don’t give her the wrong idea.  As you say it, make sure to keep your distance, so she doesn’t think you’re coming on to her. You should have closed body language and turn away from her a bit to let her know that you’re not looking to get intimate. You should keep eye contact to be respectful, but don’t stare into her eyes so intensely that she gets the wrong message. This is the hard part, and the best thing you can do is to tell her as soon as possible. Don’t dilly dally with too much small talk or she may be confused or she may even get her hopes up, thinking that you might ask her out. Just be as honest as you can without hurting her feelings. Make it clear that you’re telling her the news because you want to be honest and want to minimize the pain she’s feeling. Take a deep breath and come out with it. You can say something like, “I know you have feelings for me, and...

Article in English: Once you know the basic method of making a functional dog collar, you can let your imagination run wild! You can create a new collar wardrobe for your dog by creating collars in a variety of different collars and prints. If you enjoy sewing, you can also make these as gifts for your friends and family who have dogs. Dog collars are a fairly simple sewing project. If you have kids, this would be a fun crafts project for you to do together. This would make a great project to teach someone about the basics of sewing. We all know that it's fun to dress up for different holidays. Let your dog have a seasonal wardrobe, too. You can create different collars for different seasons. Think firework printed fabric for the Fourth of July and hearts for Valentine's day. Look for materials during holiday off seasons. For example, you'll be able to find lower prices on Christmas prints during the early spring and summer. Some dog collars are intended to be more decorative than functional. If this is the case, you should feel free to experiment with a variety of materials. For example, consider ribbons. There are many specialty stores that sell beautiful colored and printed ribbons. This would work especially well for small dogs. Leather is also a great option for dog collars. While it is more expensive, it will also last longer. While it can be fun to make your dog look stylish, make sure that you are considering his comfort. For example, if you have a puppy, make sure that the collar you make is adjustable and allows him room to grow. You never want a collar to be to tight. Avoid using twine or any material that will chafe or irritate your dog's coat.

Article in English: Once you know the inventory turnover ratio, you can use it to calculate the days in inventory.  Days in inventory is the total number of days a company takes to sell its average inventory.  It also determines the number of days for which the current average inventory will be sufficient.  Companies use this metric to evaluate their efficiency in using their inventory. You calculate the days in inventory by dividing the number of days in the period by the inventory turnover ratio.  In the example used above, the inventory turnover ratio is 4.33.  Since the accounting period was a 12 month period, the number of days in the period is 365.  Calculate the days in inventory with the formula 365/4.33=84.2{\displaystyle 365/4.33=84.2}. It takes this company 84.2 days to sell its average inventory. If you have not calculated the inventory turnover ratio, you could simply use the cost of goods sold and the average inventory figures.  You would divide the average inventory by the COGS.  Then you would multiply that number by the number of days in the accounting period.  In the example used above, the average inventory is $6,000, the COGS is $26,000 and the number of days in the period is 365. Calculate the days in inventory with the formula ($6,000/$26,000)∗365=84.2{\displaystyle (\$6,000/\$26,000)*365=84.2}  You still get the same answer.  It takes this company 84.2 days to sell its average inventory.

Article in English: Once you know the look you are going for, you can figure out the best way to try and achieve it. You will want to figure out if your desired style will require you to grow or trim your hair. If so, it is better to trim your hair beforehand so you have less hair to transition into your afro look. To create an afro with straight hair, it is best to start with at least 4-6" of length. Your hair needs to be long enough to braid or put in curlers. If your hair is longer than 12" in length, you may want to trim the hair if your goal is to achieve an afro that stands up. Rinse your hair thoroughly. It is important to start with clean hair that is free of natural oils. Clean hair will also make it easier to work with your hair when putting it in braids or rollers.

Article in English: Once you know what makes you passionate and happy, look for jobs or volunteer opportunities. For example, if you realize you’ve always enjoyed talking to your grandparents, you might try to find work with an organization that assists the elderly in some capacity. Or, if you're interested in video games, you could look into becoming a computer programmer or video game designer. Look for opportunities that will make you happy in the long term. Ask yourself where you see yourself in five or ten years. Then, consider whether job or volunteer offers fit into that picture. Discovering yourself is an important part of growing up and creating your own life, but you need to include others too. Research has shown that when you network with others about your passions, your passions are supported or enhanced. Regardless of what your passions are, you can find a local or digital community that share similar interests. You may even find that networking creates job opportunities that allow you to focus entirely on your interests. For example, if you're motivated to woodwork, you might look for a local group that meets to share a workshop. They may be able to offer you advice on honing your skill and could even tell you about opportunities to sell your work. Part of growing up is developing strategies for self-care. This means being able to respect yourself and handle your emotional and physical needs. This way, you won't be overly dependent on others. For example, you should be eating a healthy diet, maintaining good physical health, getting enough rest, and creating respectful relationships. You'll also need to learn how to manage your desires and be happy without interfering with people who want to be left alone. For example, if you feel compelled to repair a relationship with a family member, but are refused, you'll need to learn how to move on without fulfilling that need. Create a daily routine, even if it's just a few simple acts, like showering when you wake up or making your own breakfast. Sometimes life can feel...

Article in English: Once you know what to talk about, pray for insight on what you should be saying about it. You should be in communication with God throughout the entire process of preaching, including each preparatory step. The message of your sermon should be centered around the Bible. Start from the passage or passages you've been led to and build the rest of your sermon up from there. The message you preach should build upon biblical truth, not the other way around. In other words, you shouldn't plan out the message you want to deliver and twist scripture around in a way that fits your ideas. Your ideas need to work around the scriptural truth that already exists. Study the passage thoroughly to improve your own understanding. Consider its meaning within scriptural, historical, and cultural contexts.  Look at the verses around the passage. Make sure you know and understand its immediate context so that you don't misinterpret the meaning. Do a little external research, too, especially if the passage describes a custom or idea that is foreign to contemporary ways of thinking. All of God's Word is significant, but you should be asking yourself why this particular passage is so important and why God wants you to preach on it.  Figure out the theme of the passage. Ask yourself what it says about God and why people need to listen. Note that some of this might be answered as you go through the process of selecting the passage, especially if you found the passage by searching the Bible for a specific topic. Don't assume that you already know everything there is to know about the passage you're working with. Let yourself be surprised by truths and perspectives hidden beneath the surface.  When dealing with a passage you're already familiar with, it can be easy to fixate on the safe, common meaning you already know. Don't settle for seeing only what you expect to see, though. On the other hand, you also shouldn't look for a hidden meaning that may not be there. Don't twist the text around for the sake of finding something shocking...

Article in English: Once you know what you want your design to be, decide on a material for the decorative top layer of your mousepad.  Remember that you want your mousepad to stay smooth and flat, so your mouse can move across it easily. For photographs, you can use simply a printed sheet of paper with your chosen image. When you're using a photo, you want to make sure you use a photo that is the size of your mouse pad, rather than gluing a smaller photo in the center. If you'd rather have a pattern, you can use wallpaper or wrapping paper. Thrift stores are a great place to find cheap remnants of wallpaper perfect for crafting. Fabric is also a good material for solid or patterned mousepads. You can find fabric at any local hobby store or repurpose an old cotton shirt.     Whatever material you choose, you'll need to cut it to the size of your mousepad base.  You want it to be the exact size of the top of your base with clean-cut edges.     After you cut it to size, you will want to attach your fabric or paper top to the base.  White glue or mod podge works well for paper tops. Just use a paintbrush to spread a thin, even layer of glue onto the surface of your base, and then smooth on your top layer of paper. If you are using fabric, use fabric glue or a spray adhesive for the best results. Avoid hot glue, as this will leave lumps in your mouse pad.     The clear contact paper will protect your design and allow your mouse to move smoothly.  First, cut your contact paper to size. Then, peel off its backing, and apply it to your mousepad. Be sure to smooth out any air bubbles. You can use the side of a ruler as a tool for smoothing. If you'd rather skip the decorative paper or fabric, you can simply use an opaque contact paper with a preprinted design.

Article in English: Once you made it all the way to the end of your days awake, your first priority will be to sleep. On your first day back to sleeping, you might not be able to control when you fall asleep. After that, though, try to get back on your regular sleep schedule as soon as you can, sleeping only at night with a 15-20 minute nap or two during the day if you start to feel groggy.  Let yourself sleep for as long as you need to as you recover, which might be up to 10-11 hours per night.  While there will definitely be some side effects to your having been awake for so long, several days of regular sleep will get you back to normal. Binging on caffeine to stay awake through the day will only set you up for a crash, and ruin your regular schedule. Start to cut back on your caffeine consumption slowly, lowering it by 1 cup of coffee or tea every day or every few days. If you start to experience caffeine withdrawal symptoms, like headaches, drowsiness, or muscle aches, try drinking water or herbal tea, taking pain relief medicines, or getting up for a bit of exercise. You tend to crave junk food when you’re sleep-deprived, but eating lots of refined carbs and sugars will only lead to a crash and make it harder to recover from your time awake. Instead, continue to eat lean proteins and foods with natural sugars to keep you energized without making you jittery or sleepy. Go for foods like:  Lean proteins, like fish and chicken Fresh fruit Nuts Dehydration can make you feel even more tired, and after multiple days consuming lots of caffeine, you’ll need a good amount of water to bring your energy back up. Try to drink about 15.5 cups (3.7 L) of water if you’re a man, or 11.5 cups (2.7 L) if you’re a woman. You can also go for soothing drinks like herbal tea, which isn’t caffeinated and can help perk you up. While you may not be able to avoid doing other work, it's best to take it as easy as you can in the days after your time awake. You'll be groggy and not at your full capacity, so try to avoid doing important activities if...

Article in English: Once you notice signs of heat stroke, immediately but gently pick the rabbit up and carry it to a cool place. This could be a room with a fan or air conditioning, whatever space you have readily available. At the very least, move the rabbit out of the sun and into the shade. As an emergency measure, start to cool the rabbit. This can be done by spritzing the rabbit's coat with cool, but not freezing, water, or standing the rabbit in a few inches of tepid water. However, make sure the water is just one or two inches deep, as rabbits will readily panic in deep water. Some people suggest applying rubbing alcohol to the rabbit's paws, as this evaporates quickly and has a cooling action. It is important to start hydrating the rabbit as soon as possible. Getting cool water into the rabbit's system will help to cool it down on the inside of its body. This is just as important as getting the rabbit's body cool on the outside. Don't use of ice water, as this can cause shock. A gradual reduction in body temperature is preferable.

Article in English: Once you pass the 37 week mark, it is unlikely that your breech baby will change position on its own.  Therefore, you should consider scheduling an appointment with your doctor so that he or she may attempt to turn the baby using external cephalic version (“ECV”). This is a non-surgical procedure, used by a doctor, in a hospital. During the procedure, the doctor uses medication to relax the uterus so that he or she can push the baby, externally, into the vertex position. This is done by applying downward pressure to the lower abdomen (which some women find very uncomfortable). Some hospitals may offer hypnotherapy to ease any potential discomfort.  Throughout the procedure, the doctor will use an ultrasound to monitor the position of the baby and placenta, along with the amount of amniotic fluid. The baby's heart rate will also be monitored throughout the procedure -- if it drops too low, an immediate emergency delivery may be necessary.  The ECV procedure is successful in approximately 58% of breech pregnancies. It has a higher rate of success in subsequent (rather than first-time) pregnancies. However, in some cases, ECV is not possible due to complications -- such as bleeding or lower-than-normal levels of amniotic fluid. It is also impossible to perform when the mother is carrying twins. In some cases, a c-section will be necessary whether your baby is breech or not -- like if you have a placenta previa, are carrying triplets, or have previously had a c-section.  However, if your baby is breech but all other factors are normal, you will need to decide if you want to deliver your baby vaginally or undergo a c-section. A large majority of breech babies are delivered by c-section, as it is believed that this option may be somewhat less risky. Planned c-sections are normally scheduled no earlier than the 39th week of pregnancy. An ultrasound will be performed just before the surgery to ensure that the baby hasn't changed position before the last check-up. However, if you go into labor before the scheduled...

Article in English: Once you place the vegetables in the steamer, allow them to cook for a few minutes without disturbing them. Wait until they’ve been steaming for close to the minimum recommended time before you check on them. If you’re worried about losing track of the time, set a timer. For most fast-cooking vegetables, you can start checking in at around 3 minutes. If you’re cooking vegetables of multiple types or sizes, remove the ones that are done and let the others continue to steam. Use tongs or a slotted spoon to take the vegetables out of the steamer without burning yourself. Whenever your vegetables are done, move them to a covered dish to keep them warm.  If all your vegetables are done at once, you may be able to simply lift the entire steamer basket out of the pan and dump them directly into a bowl or serving dish. Use oven mitts or a kitchen towel to protect your hands. Many vegetables will appear more vibrant or colorful once they’re cooked.  Of course, the best test is a taste test. Your vegetables should be firm but tender rather than mushy.

Article in English: Once you realize that comparing yourself to others doesn’t work in your favor, you’ll look for additional measures of your success.  If you start to feel and express gratitude for the gifts that you do have, you will shift your focus from others to yourself. Spend more of your time focusing on the positive and good in your life. You may find that you start noticing more of it when you're not busy comparing yourself to others. A gratitude journal is a way to remind yourself of what you have. This will help you look at things that you may have taken for granted. Then, you can give appreciation to them. Think about several of your best memories. They can be things you did, places you went, friends, you spent time with, whatever makes you most happy. Focus on being grateful for those things.

You need to force yourself to look at things you may have taken for granted and give appreciation to them.  Make the decision to acknowledge the depth of your gratitude and enhance your life. Write in depth. Instead of just making a laundry list of things, give a thorough explanation of a few things that make you feel grateful. Write about surprises or unexpected events. This will give you a chance to savor the good feelings that you experienced. You don’t need to write every day. In fact, writing a couple of times a week might be more beneficial than writing every day. By being kinder and less harsh with yourself, you will encourage yourself to go the extra mile and to try harder. It is tough to resist comparing yourself to others. But you are ultimately in control of your life. You make choices to lead your life in a particular way. You make decisions that are best for you, not for anybody else. It doesn’t matter what other people do or have. You are the one that matters in the course of your life.
