If the soil is too dry, it will soak up all of the water that is in the bottle. If the soil is dry, water it now. A wine bottle will be ideal, because it will be large enough to water 4 to 6 square feet (0.38 to 0.56 square meters) for up to 3 days. If you don't need to water such a large area, you can use a smaller bottle, such as a soda or beer bottle. Alternatively, you can also use a store-bought watering globe or aqua globe. Don't fill it all the way; just up to where the neck starts will be plenty. At this time, you can also add additional items, such as liquid fertilizers. Use your thumb to plug the hole in the mouth of the bottle when you flip it over. Position the bottle right next to the plant you need to be watered. As you’re pushing the neck into the soil, move your thumb out of the way. Make sure that the bottle's neck is several inches in the soil. It's okay if the bottle leans to the side, but it should be sturdy and secure. If the water is not draining at all, the soil might be clogging the bottle. If this happens, take the bottle out of the soil, clean it, and glue a piece of screening over the mouth. Refill the bottle, and insert it into the soil again. Draw a line on the bottle with a permanent marker, right at the water level. Check back after a few hours (or even a whole day). If the water level is below the line you drew, the water is draining properly. If the water level has not changed, something might be blocking it.

TL;DR in Russian:

Убедитесь, что почва насыщена водой. Возьмите стеклянную бутылку с узким горлышком. Наполните бутылку водой, зажмите горлышко большим пальцем и переверните ее. Опустите горлышко бутылки в землю. Убедитесь, что вода поступает в почву.


If the soundbar is battery-powered, insert the batteries, then press the power button. If the soundbar requires a power source, plug its power cable into a wall outlet or power strip, then press the power button. If your soundbar has a Toslink (also known as optical audio) port, you can use an optical audio cable to connect it to your PC. The port is usually labeled "TOSLINK" or "OPTICAL." Toslink is a standard optical audio cable typically used to connect home theater systems to digital electronics, such as DVD players. The port is usually labeled "TOSLINK," "OPTICAL," or "DIGITAL AUDIO OUT." If you're using a desktop PC, it should be on the back panel. If you have a laptop, it's likely on one of the sides. Once connected, your PC will send all audio through to the soundbar. Some slimmer laptop models may not have a TOSLINK port.

TL;DR in Russian:

Включите звуковую панель. Вставьте один конец кабеля Toslink в звуковую панель. Вставьте другой конец кабеля Toslink в компьютер.


If the soundbar is battery-powered, insert the batteries, then press the power button. If the soundbar requires a power source, plug its power cable into a wall outlet or power strip, then press the power button. Insert the 3.5mm jack into the port that displays a small icon of headphones. It's usually on the side of a laptop's keyboard, or on the front of a desktop unit. The location is varies by device, but the port will usually be labeled "AUX." Once the connection is made, Windows will automatically play audio through the soundbar.

TL;DR in Russian:

Включите звуковую панель. Подключите один конец кабеля AUX к звуковому порту компьютера. Подключите другой конец кабеля AUX к звуковой панели.


If the soundbar is battery-powered, insert the batteries, then press the power button. If the soundbar requires a power source, plug its power cable into a wall outlet or power strip, then press the power button. The steps to do this vary by model, but you'll usually have to press a button somewhere on the soundbar to make it discoverable by your PC.  Check your soundbar's instruction manual for steps unique to your model. Some soundbars enter pairing mode automatically. It's the square chat bubble to the right of the clock in the taskbar, which is usually at the bottom of the screen. There may be a small number over the icon. Locate the "Bluetooth" tile, which contains a small icon that looks like a sideways bowtie.  If the tile is a lighter color and says "Not Connected" (or shows the name of a connected device), Bluetooth is already on. If the tile says "Bluetooth" and is dark in color, click it to enable Bluetooth. It has an icon of a computer screen and speaker. Windows will now scan for devices. This connects the PC to the soundbar. Once connected, all audio will be routed to the soundbar. Once the speaker is paired, your PC will automatically connect to it whenever it's in range.

If the spider is non-venomous, there are a number of ways to get it out of your home. If the spider in your house is already close to a window or door, you can find ways to encourage the spider out. You will first want to open the door or window to show the spider the way out of the house.  Try to step around the spider and open the door or window slowly. If you scare the spider, it may run and hide somewhere, and you won’t be able to get it outside as easily. Find an object like a notebook, folder, or book that you can move around the spider if it tries to go in a direction that’s not the open door or window. Anything that is tall and flat will work. Take the notebook or folder and gently give the spider a nudge toward the door. The spider will be scared and start moving. If the spider veers away from the door, take the notebook and put it next to the spider to create a wall so that the spider won’t be able to run in that direction anymore. Keep doing this until the spider starts running in the right direction. The spider may hesitate on the threshold as it is running toward the door. If the spider lingers on the threshold, brush it out using your hand or the notebook or folder. You also could flick it with your finger. When you are using the folder to guide the spider out of the door, the spider may start crawling on the folder instead of running. If the spider crawls onto the folder, toss the folder out the door, so that both the spider and the folder are outside. The spider will eventually crawl off the folder, and you can go and retrieve the folder later. You may not feel comfortable throwing the folder out of the door or window, especially if you live in a communal space like an apartment complex. If the spider crawls on the folder, instead of throwing it you can go outside with the folder and either brush the spider off with your hand, or wipe the folder on a bush or the windowsill until the spider falls off. Now that the spider’s gone, you don’t want it to come back! Make sure that you close the door...

TL;DR in Russian:

Откройте поблизости от паука дверь или окно. Заблокируйте нежелательный маршрут паука. Направьте паука наружу. Направьте паука через порог. Если паук заберется на папку, выбросьте ее за порог. Закройте дверь или окно.


If the stain is not your own blood, exercise caution and use gloves for this and all subsequent steps. Some bloodborne pathogens can remain infectious for days outside the body. Dispose of all soiled cleaning supplies with care. If possible, chill the water in a bowl with ice cubes. Never use warm or hot water to clean blood! If you do, the heat may set the stain and make it permanent. Carefully dab the area until dry. Tamp gently up and down. Do not dab at a dry stain, as that may damage the paper. This will likely need to be done a few times. If the stain was fresh, this may be all that's necessary to remove the stain. If the stain persists, go on to the next step. Repeat steps 2-3 using hydrogen peroxide instead of water. Repeat as necessary. Do not be tempted to use bleach on a blood stain! Bleach can break down the proteins found in blood, leaving behind an unsightly yellow mark.

TL;DR in Russian:

Промокните пятна крови ватным тампоном или бумажной салфеткой. Смочите ватный шарик холодной водой и тщательно протрите пятно. Промокните влажное пятно сухим ватным шариком. Повторяйте процесс, описанный в шагах 2 и 3 до тех пор, пока вы не удалите кровяное пятно полностью. Приобретите 3% раствор перекиси водорода.


If the stain is still there when you put the garment into the dryer, you will risk setting the stain. Try to remove the stain again. If you can't, let the garment air dry, and take it to a professional dry cleaner.

TL;DR in Russian:

Перед использованием сушилки необходимо убедиться, что пятно полностью выведено.


If the stain is very fresh, get a hold of some club soda instead of plain, cold water. Stir the mixture until the salt has somewhat dissolved in the water. Make sure a good part of the rag/cloth is saturated with the saltwater. Try blotting alone first. If you see no results just from that action, try wiping the stain. Alternate between blotting and wiping until the stain disappears.  You can also turn your garment inside out and flush the stain from the back with cold club soda and salt. If this didn't work for your blood stain, go ahead an try the next steps below. Add two tablespoons of table salt or the same quantity of ammonia. Mix the ingredients. If the blood stain is dry and no longer fresh, pour the water and salt/ammonia mixture into a plastic tub, and soak the stained part of your jeans in it anywhere from thirty minutes to overnight. You can occasionally check on the stain to observe its progress.  Do not use warm water as that'll actually set the stain instead of removing it. If these steps didn't get rid of your stain, try any of the ones below. This method should work quite well on old and set-in stains. After you've soaked your jeans in cold water, wring them out and place them in a plastic bag with two cups of lemon juice and half a cup of table salt. Let your garment soak for about ten minutes, then hang your jeans outside to dry. Once they're dry, put them in your regular laundry cycle. Note that lemon juice can lighten your garments color. It's best to use this method on light or white jeans. Due to its ability to break down proteins, meat tenderizer can be an effective blood stain remover. Use a quarter teaspoon of the meat tenderizer, add a little cold water, and mix it into a paste. Work the paste into the blood stain. Let it set in for about fifteen minutes, then rinse out your jeans.  You can get meat tenderizer in any convenience store. If none of the above steps worked on your blood stain, give the last one below a chance. Hairspray can be another effective product to get rid of...

TL;DR in Russian:

Растворите одну чайную ложку соли в стакане холодной воды. Опустите тряпочку в раствор соли. Потрите пятно до полного исчезновения. Налейте в миску литр холодной воды. Замочите пятно в холодной воде на одну минуту. Сделайте пасту из размягчителя мяса. Возьмите лак для волос.


If the staves you use have specific indentations for rhinestone gems, clean them thoroughly using a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol.  Wipe away any residue using the dry side of the cotton swab or a clean, dry rag. This process removes any debris that could interfere with the effectiveness of the glue you'll be using later on. If the staves do not have specific inlay holes, you should still clean the general areas you plan to place the stones. Note that rhinestone decorations are only optional. Skip this section if you choose not to use them. Use a toothpick to apply a dab of glue to the back of one rhinestone gem.  You may need to hold the stone with tweezers as you apply the glue to prevent the adhesive from sticking to your skin. Five-minute epoxy is a good choice, but any super glue should work. Place the stone, glue-side down, on one of the cleaned inlays. Gently press down on the stone so that the adhesive sticks securely to the stave.  Wait until the glue dries before continuing. If the staves you use do not have specific inlay holes, you will need to determine where to place each gemstone before applying it. The stone should be able to stick to any position on the stave, though. Apply glue to the back of each rhinestone gem, then place each gem on a separate inlay hole along the stave. Typically, each stave has six gemstone inlays. Repeat the process for each stave until all 12 staves are decorated with rhinestones.  Let everything dry before continuing. If the staves do not have separate rhinestone inlays, you will need to measure out the space in between each stone on your first stave and repeat these precise measurements on each stave that follows.

TL;DR in Russian:

Очистите декоративные отверстия для горного хрусталя. Нанесите клей на обратную сторону камня. Приклейте камень к спице. Повторите с остальными камнями. Повторите с каждым шестом.


If the stress comes from difficulties in your relationship, make a distinction between such problems and the relationship itself. You shouldn't let one single difficulty affect the entire relationship. Find out what doesn't work in the relationship and address this specific issue by using what does work as a point of strength. What makes a reaction different from a response is its intensity and emotional subtext. Think your answers through. If one implies anger, sarcasm, accusations, it's a reaction. This will only turn communication into a table-tennis match where the goal is to win rather than to find a solution. However, a team always plays on the same side.  Don't phrase your comments as judgments or blame your partner out of spite. This can only lead to further stress and misunderstanding. You can do this by focusing on future objectives rather than past actions. If you were disappointed at your partner's not doing the dishes, seize the next occasion to ask them to do the dishes, without mentioning the fact that they didn't in the past. Don't invalidate your partner's opinions just to win an argument. Proving yourself right might be good for your ego, but it never makes a team stronger.  Understand that, when we're angry, communication follows war patterns: aggression and defense. You should avoid both, and try to bring the conversation back to equal terms. Express ideas as positive statements, without using them as weapons or shields. If your partner's tone becomes aggressive or judgmental, point it out gently and ask what was behind the message. What we say is usually not as important as why we said it. This will help you address the original source of stress, instead of spending time arguing over a harsh reply. Be tolerant if your partner has a bad reaction. If this happens repeatedly, point out this is not a useful discussion. It will never lead to a solution but only further stress. This is the golden rule of any relationship. Showing each other respect through what you say or do will decrease the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Изолируйте проблему. Выражайте ответы, а не реакции. Открыто обсуждайте жесткие реакции. Уважайте партнера и рассчитывайте на встречное уважение. Доверяйте партнеру и принимайте его таким, какой он есть. Не бойтесь вести переговоры и сдаваться. Поговорите с консультантом по отношениям.


If the strong smell of car fresheners makes you feel nauseated even when you are not sick, then you should definitely avoid them when you are. The things you see, smell and taste are also stimuli for vomiting, so knowing what makes you feel queasy really matters. For example, some people feel queasy when they see blood, even if it is just movie blood. Other people feel nauseous when they eat blue cheese, or gag when they smell garbage. Whatever your triggers are, stay away from them. All three of these liquids can stimulate the gag reflex and may even irritate the lining of your gastrointestinal tract. You will want to avoid them for at least a day after you have vomited.  Carbonated beverages include all sodas and beer. Acidic drinks include orange juice, grapefruit juice, and other drinks made with citrus. Caffeinated drinks include coffee, black tea, and energy drinks. These types of food are clinically known to promote vomiting. Since your stomach needs to work double time to digest it, you will most likely vomit as a result. Wait at least 48 hours after vomiting before eating any sort of oily or mildly spicy foods. If you have motion sickness, then vehicles are off limits. When you have the stomach flu, you already have a tendency to vomit. Riding in a vehicle will only increase your chance of vomiting. This is because rapidly changing direction (like sitting in the back of a car making a U-turn) stimulates receptors in the vestibular labyrinth of the inner ear. From the inner ear, impulses are transmitted via the brainstem into the cerebellum, which houses the vomiting center, causing you to become physically ill. If there is absolutely no way you can avoid riding in a car, ask the driver to take turns slowly and drive carefully so that no sharp movements are made. This can lessen your chance of getting sick. You probably already know that smoking is bad for your health. However, it is even worse for you if you are trying to stop vomiting. When you smoke a cigarette, you are inhaling nicotine. Nicotine...

TL;DR in Russian:

Избегайте неприятных запахов, вкусов или зрелищ. Не употребляйте напитков, содержащих углекислый газ, кислоту или кофеин. Избегайте острой и жирной пищи. Избегайте поездок в автомобиле. Не курите. Не принимайте определенные нестероидные противовоспалительные препараты.


If the swelling doesn’t go down within two to three days or the symptoms get worse, contact your doctor. There could be an infection or more serious condition causing the inflammation. If you feel any numbness or tingling on your face, experience any vision problems, or notice any pus or other signs of infection, go to the doctor. The facial swelling may be due to an allergic reaction. You can try taking an over-the-counter antihistamine to see if that helps. If that doesn’t help, go to the doctor. They can diagnose the underlying cause and prescribe stronger antihistamines. They may prescribe oral or topical antihistamines. Some facial swelling, especially that caused by edema, can be treated by medications that help rid your body of excess fluids. Your doctor may prescribe you a diuretic, which will help release fluid in your body through urine. Sometimes, medications such as prednisone that you take may lead to swelling, which can occur in the face. Talk to your doctor about the medications that you take. If your doctor suspects that is the cause, they will change your medication.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь к врачу, если отек не проходит или усиливается. Принимайте антигистаминные средства. Принимайте мочегонные средства. Замените лекарства, которые вы принимаете.


If the symptoms do not subside within a few hours, consider seeking urgent medical advice. Though it's not a life or death situation, make the call, even if only for advice. The ER doctor most likely will give the patient Valium or Xanax and possibly a Beta-Blocker like Atenolol to calm the heart and the adrenaline in the body. If this is the first time they have had a panic attack, they may want to seek medical attention because they are frightened of what is happening to them. If they've had panic attacks in the past, however, they may know that getting emergency care will worsen their state. Ask them. This decision will ultimately depend on the individual's experience and your interactions with him or her. Panic attacks are a form of anxiety that should be treated by a medical professional. A good therapist should be able to pinpoint the panic attack triggers or, at the very least, help the individual get a better grasp on the physiological side of the situation. If they do begin it, allow them to proceed at their own pace. Let them know that therapy is not for kooks. It is a legitimate form of help that millions of people are a part of. What's more, a therapist may prescribe a medication that halts the problem in its tracks. The medication may not stop the attacks completely, but will surely lower the amount and frequency of them. You may feel incredibly guilty that you are the one freaking out during a friend's panic attack, but this is normal. Know that being alarmed and a bit scared is a healthy response to witnessing one of these episodes. If it'd help, ask the person if you can talk about it later, so you can handle it better in the future.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь за медицинской помощью. Помогите человеку подобрать способ лечения. Позаботьтесь о себе.


If the synopsis is longer than one page in length, double space the document. It will be easier for the literary agent to read. When you are rushing to finish your synopsis, it can be easy to forget including the title of your book and your name. Make sure these details are on each page of the document in the upper left-hand corner. If a literary agent likes your synopsis, you want to make sure they know who to contact. While you might feel like you should use a more interesting font, it's best to stick with a standard one such as Times New Roman that is easy to read and will open on a variety of devices. If you typed your book in a certain font, stick with the same font for the synopsis so they match. You might also be submitting sample chapters, and the documents will look like they are part of the same package or go together. Although the synopsis is a shorter document, you do not want it to appear like you wrote it in a stream of consciousness. To prevent this from happening, indent paragraphs so your synopsis looks neat and well-organized. Length requirements of synopses vary depending on the literary agent or publishing company. Make sure you follow the guidelines you are given or ask the agent or publisher you are working with what they would prefer.  Some writers recommend starting with a 5 page synopsis, and then condensing this document and trimming it down as needed. Be prepared for different length requirements ahead of time by having a 1 page and 3 page synopsis on hand. Even if the length requirements are slightly different, you should be able to easily adapt a 1 page or 3 page version.

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте двойной интервал. Не забудьте указать название книги и свое имя. Используйте стандартный шрифт. Начинайте абзацы с отступа. Придерживайтесь рекомендаций относительно объема.


If the system is not working:  Check the power sources including the wall and power surge connectors. Troubleshoot for loose cable connections. Confirm the USB cable is connected to the correct port. Make sure you have the right type of cable. Review the owner's manual instructions on installing the printer or scanner. Send a help desk ticket or access the online help feature. In Windows, click on the start button to bring up active programs. If you're using a Mac, click on the scanner icon. If the program is not installed or you cannot find the installation disks, you can use basic built in utilities or download reputable ones from websites like CNET. For Windows computers, the basic built in utility is called Windows Fax and Scan and can be found by using the search bar in the start menu. Find the scanner program. Activate and open the scanning program by double clicking on the program's name or by hitting the scan button on your printer or scanner. Click the next button to continue to next step. You should be prompted to place the image for scanning.

If the terminal is not already open, open it. Many distributions allow you to open it by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T. su - and press ↵ Enter. This will attempt to log you in as "super user." You can actually use this command to log in as any user on the machine, but when left blank it will attempt to log in as root. After typing su - and pressing ↵ Enter, you'll be prompted for the root password. If you get an "authentication error" message, your root account is likely locked. See the next section for instructions on unlocking it. When you are logged in as root, the command prompt should end with # instead of $. Once you've used su - to log in as root, you can run any commands that require root access. The su command is preserved until the end of the session, so you don't need to keep re-entering the root password every time you need to run a command. sudo instead of su -. sudo ("super user do") is a command that lets you run other commands as root temporarily. This is the best way for most users to run root commands, as the root environment is not maintained, and the user doesn't need to know the root password. Instead, the user will enter their own user password for temporary root access.  Type sudo command and press ↵ Enter (e.g. sudo ifconfig). When prompted for the password, enter your user password, not the root password.  sudo is the preferred method for distributions like Ubuntu, where it will work even when the root account is locked. This command is limited to users with administrator privileges. Users can be added or removed from /etc/sudoers.

TL;DR in Russian:

Откройте терминал. Введите . Введите пароль суперпользователя (при появлении соответствующего запроса). Обратите внимание на приглашение на ввод команды (в окне терминала). Введите команды, на исполнение которых нужны права суперпользователя. Вместо команды su - можно использовать команду .


If the thorn is just beneath a soft, thin layer of skin that has begun to heal over it, this method works well. However, it's important to follow the right technique so that you don't introduce bacteria to your skin and end up with an infection. Here's how to do it:  Make sure the area where the thorn went in is clean and dry. Sterilize a sewing needle by wiping it with rubbing alcohol. Press the tip of the needle over the tip of the thorn and gently loosen the new layer of skin that grew there by digging the needle under the skin. Loosen the skin around the thorn. When enough of the thorn is exposed, remove it with tweezers Clean the area with warm, soapy water. Put a bandaid on if necessary. Thorns deeply embedded in thick, calloused skin can be removed with a razor. Only use this method for thick skin on your heels or another calloused area. Do not use this method on thinner skin, since you could easily cut yourself too deeply. If you wish to use this method, exercise extreme caution while handling the razor.  Make sure the area where the thorn went in is clean and dry. Sterilize the nail clipper or razor by wiping it with rubbing alcohol. Very carefully make a cut over the thorn to expose it. In calloused skin, this should not draw any blood. Use the tweezers to remove the exposed thorn. Clean the area and bandage it if necessary. If the thorn is just too deep to remove on your own, or if it's close to a sensitive area like your eye, see a doctor for quick and clean removal. The doctor will have the right equipment to remove it easily with low risk of infection.

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте иглу. Используйте лезвие. Обратитесь к врачу, если необходимо.


If the thought of picking up poop with your hand makes you squeamish, or if you have trouble bending over or stooping, a pooper scooper is a good alternative for picking up your dog’s poop. There are many types of pooper scoopers available at your local pet store or home gardening store. Scoopers often come with spades (for use on a solid surface), rakes (for use on grass), or grabbers (grasping poop).  Try to find a pooper scooper that is sturdy enough to use with one hand. If you are walking with your dog, having a scooper that you can use with one hand would be useful. You can also purchase a pooper scooper that is designed to have a plastic bag attached to the scooper end.  By nature of their design, pooper scoopers are not effective for picking up poop that is mushy or diarrhea-like. If your dog has defecated on the concrete, use your pooper scooper with a spade to scoop up under the poop. After scooping up the poop, carefully dump it into a doggie bag. Alternatively, you could your “grabber” pooper scooper to grab the poop and drop it into the doggie bag.  If you are cleaning up poop in the grass, use your pooper scooper with a rake to gather the poop into a neat pile (if necessary) before you scoop it up to drop it into a doggie bag. The mechanism for using the scooper will depend on what types of attachments it has. The staff at your local pet store or home gardening store can assist you with how to use the specific scooper that you want to purchase. It is necessary to clean your pooper scooper so that the remnants of your dog’s poop do not begin to accumulate on the scooper. These remnants could attract flies and make it more difficult to pick up your dog’s poop. To keep it clean, you can either hose it down with water or let it soak in a bucket of disinfectant.  If you choose to use a bucket with disinfectant, make sure to use this bucket only for cleaning your pooper scooper and not for any other household purposes. Talk with your local waste department for advice on throwing away the water that...

If the tool is part of a larger machine, such as a table saw, disassemble your unit. Wash all of the tools or parts to be treated for rust in a mixture of grease-cutting dish detergent and warm water to remove the oils and dirt. You can use a plastic container, pot, or tub, as long as it’s large enough to submerge the tools. Choose a container that you can set aside for one to three days. White vinegar is acidic, so it will cut through the rust, making it easier to remove. While the amount of white vinegar will vary depending on how many tools you are cleaning and how big they are, track how much you add to the container so that you can properly measure your salt. You should add roughly ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of salt for each quart (1 liter) of vinegar. The salt will increase the acidity of the vinegar so that the solution dissolves the rust quicker. Spread the salt evenly over the vinegar soak. The vinegar and salt need time to break down the rust so that it can be scrubbed from the tools. The longer you allow your tools to remain in the vinegar, the easier it will be to remove the rust.  Place the container in a secure location so that children and animals won’t get into it. For example, you could lock it in your garage or shed. Pull out any tools with hinges or moving parts occasionally to move them around. This helps work out the rust from the crevices. After you remove the tools from the vinegar solution, vigorously rub your tools to buff away the rust. Continue to scrub the tools until they are completely free of rust.  If the rust is thick, use a metal bristle brush.  Use a small, firm toothbrush in circular motions for hard to reach areas. Pour out the vinegar solution and wash out the tub. Fill the tub with enough clean water to match the amount of vinegar solution that you’d used. The baking soda will neutralize the acid from the vinegar so that it doesn’t remain on your tools. Use about ¼ cup (60 milliliters) of baking soda for each quart (1 liter) of water. Mix the baking soda into the water to...

If the total length of the dress falls within these measurements, it is a very short dress that will sit on the upper to mid thigh, known as a micro or mini dress. This means the dress will sit just above the knee or just at the knee, known as a cocktail length dress. If you are very tall or very short, the dress may hit you differently in the knee area depending on your height. This means the dress will fall just below the knee or at the calves, known as a midi dress. This means the dress will be fairly long, falling at your ankles or to the floor, known as a maxi dress.

TL;DR in Russian:

Длина платья 76–89 см. Длина платья 91–102 см. Длина платья 100–110 см. Длина платья 140–160 см.


If the toy has a bobblehead, for example, maybe you could name it Bobby, or Shaky. Or, think about the gender. You probably don't want a boy named Princess! Think about what animal the toy is and name it for what it is matched with. For example, a parrot. They are known to live with pirates, so why not a "pirate"-ish name, such as "Patchy"? Or maybe if a toy is "jet black", you could name your toy Jet. Look carefully at the toy's face or expression, and sometimes a name just pops inside your head! See if it reminds you of someone you know, but don't give them your best friend's name if it's a stuffed pig.    Then the name will have a meaning. For example: If you got the toy in April you could name the toy April, or if someone gave it to you, you could name it after them.

If the two of you are having an intimate moment, your eyes will communicate a lot about how you are feeling. Smile at him, and move your body closer. If you are holding hands, you can pull him that way. You might also place a hand on his hip, or gently tug his shirt. Let the anticipation build for a moment, your body lightly touching his. Look at his face to gauge how he is feeling. Maybe take his hand, or put a hand on his waist. Breathe, and relax into his body. You might lean your head against his chest or shoulder, or move one of your hands down to hold one of his. Stay in this position for a while, enjoying the closeness. Feel his breathing. Listen for his heartbeat. Relax into the moment. Don’t feel any pressure to speak—your body will speak for you. It’s up to you whether or not to rub his back with your hands. A gentle back rub can feel nice, but if you want to comfort someone or make him feel safe, sometimes it’s best just to hold him. Squeeze him gently, and lean back. Grab his hand as you break apart, and give that a light squeeze as well before letting go. Look into his eyes, and give him your most affectionate, trusting smile.

TL;DR in Russian:

Сначала установите зрительный контакт. Притяните его к себе. Ждите этого момента. Крепко обхватите его руками. Когда будете готовы разжать объятия, сделайте глубокий вдох и выдох.


If the two of you have interacted in the past, you will probably have to do so in the present. You will need to stop letting your thoughts linger on these moments of interaction.  Anything from a brush against your hand, a smile in your direction, or a kind greeting can linger in your thoughts for hours if you let it.     The moment you catch yourself obsessing over something of this nature, you need to turn your attention to other things. As the saying goes, “out of sight and out of mind.” You do not need to permanently sever any and all ties with this person, but for the duration of your non-break-up, you need to put as much space between the two of you as possible.  This is harder if the person you have feelings for is a classmate, coworker, or someone you see on a regular basis. It can also be difficult if this person is a close friend. If you cannot cut ties completely, at least distance yourself in whatever ways you can. If you purposefully walk down one hallway just so you can pass that person by, for instance, choose another hallway to walk down, instead.    Stop trying to align yourself to that person's interests and routine. Let your life return to the way it was before this person ever came along.  If you convinced yourself that you like something just because the object of your affection likes it, be honest with yourself and go back to not caring for it. Stop rearranging your schedule or uprooting your routine on the off-chance that you can see that person or do something to please him or her. Regrettably, most people tend to put those they have feelings for on a pedestal. Take the object of your affection off that pedestal and be honest with yourself about his or her faults. This does not mean you have to hate the person in question, especially if this person is a genuinely decent human being. It does, however, mean that you should point out the person's faults and flaws to yourself and admit that he or she is not the very definition of perfection.    The person in question might honestly be a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Прекратите постоянно думать о мелочах. Увеличьте расстояние между вами. Ваш мир не должен вращаться вокруг него или нее. Объективно смотрите на него или нее. Скажите себе, почему эти отношения были бы ошибкой. Обсудите это с друзьями. Поговорите с объектом вашей любви, если ситуация подходящая.


If the values in a given set all occur the same number of times, the data set has no mode because no number is any more common than any other. For instance, data sets in which every value occurs once have no mode. The same is true for data sets in which every value occurs twice, three times, and so on. If we change our example data set to {11, 15, 17, 18, 19, 21} so that each value occurs only once, the data set now has no mode. The same is true if we change the data set so that each value occurs twice: {11, 11, 15, 15, 17, 17, 18, 18, 19, 19, 21, 21}. Generally, most data sets are quantitative - they deal with data in the form of numbers. However, some data sets deal with data that is not expressed in the form of numbers. In these cases, the "mode" can be said to be the single value that occurs the most in the data set, much as it is for numerical data sets. In these cases, it may be possible to find the mode while being impossible to find a meaningful median or mean for the data set.  For example, let's say that a biological survey determines the species of each tree in a small local part. The data set for the types of trees in the park is {Cedar, Alder, Cedar, Pine, Cedar, Cedar, Alder, Alder, Pine, Cedar}. This type of data set is called a nominal data set because the data points are distinguished only by their names. In this case, the mode of the data set is Cedar because it occurs the most often (five times as opposed to three for Alder and two for Pine). Note that, for the example data set above, it's impossible to calculate a mean or median because the data points have no numerical value. As noted above, it's possible for the mode, median, and/or mean to overlap in certain cases. In special, select cases where the density function of the data set forms a perfectly symmetrical curve with one mode (for example, the Gaussian or "Bell-Shaped" Curve), the mode, mean, and median will all be the same value. Because a distribution function graphs the relative occurrence of data points, the mode will naturally...

TL;DR in Russian:

Множество не имеет моды, если каждое значение встречается в нем одинаковое число раз. Помните, что моду нечислового набора данных можно определить точно так же, как для числовых множеств. При одномодальном симметричном распределении мода, среднее значение и медиана совпадают.


If the victim cannot get out on their own and help has not arrived, you should throw a long object that the victim can hold on to, such as a pole, a rope, a tree limp, or even a long scarf. Connecting yourself with the drowning person with a long object will keep you out of harm's way. Once the object reaches the victim, they should wrap it around themselves as much as they can.  To increase the chances of a safe ice rescue, you should be prepared with rope and other long items if you plan on going onto the ice. Get a rope, extension cord, hockey stick, or any other sort of strong line that you can find. Since the victim's cold hands may not be able to grip the line, tie a loop (not a slip knot—preferably a bowline knot) at the end of the rope and tell them to put their arms through the loop and then bend their arms to touch their shoulders so that the rope is inside the bend of their elbows. Alternatively, they can put the loop over their head and slide it down under their arms. A sled, a life preserver tied to a rope, or any object for the victim to grab onto will be more helpful than nothing. If you happen to have a light boat that you can push across the ice ahead of you, you should push it to the edge of the hole, get into it, and then pull the victim over the bow, making sure that it doesn't capsize. Attaching rope to the boat so the boat can more easily be brought to the shore by other rescuers isn't a bad idea if there's some rope nearby. If you don't have any rescue devices but you're with multiple people, then you may need to make a human chain to rescue the individual. To do this, you'll need to have the rescuers lie on the ice as closely as they can, forming a chain by holding on to the ankles of the person in front of him or her. The person at the front of the chain, who is closest to the victim, should grab the victim by their hands and should pull them flat onto the ice while the person at the end of the chain pulls the chain back. Though the human chain is not ideal, it's far better than...

TL;DR in Russian:

Киньте жертве длинный предмет. Бросьте жертве санки, если у вас нет длинного предмета. Подплывите к жертве, если у вас нет ничего под рукой. При необходимости, сформируйте цепь из нескольких человек. Вытягивайте жертву.


If the victim doesn’t respond or wake up after losing consciousness, experiences worsening headaches, vomits repeatedly, has blood or fluid leaking from the ears and nose, has a seizure, difficulty breathing, or slurred speech, take them to the emergency room immediately. These symptoms could indicate a very serious brain injury. Even if emergency medical treatment isn’t required, all head injuries should be evaluated by a licensed healthcare professional. If you suspect someone has a concussion, take them to the doctor within 2 days of the incident. In general, the symptoms of a concussion decrease over time. If the opposite is happening and the person experiences worsening pain, such as headache, and/or increased fatigue, seek immediate medical attention. These signs could indicate a more serious injury. Usually, bed rest is prescribed for people with concussions. This includes both physical and mental rest, meaning the person should avoid physical activity (like exercise) as well as strenuous mental activity (such as playing video games or doing crossword puzzles). Be sure to rest for as long as the doctor recommends, and always follow any other treatment plan as prescribed by your healthcare provider. If the victim got a concussion while playing a sport, exercising, or doing another physical activity, remove the person from the game or activity. They should not resume the activity until evaluated by a doctor, especially if it is a contact sport in which they may get hit again.

TL;DR in Russian:

Немедленно обратитесь за медицинской помощью в случае судорог, затрудненного дыхания или жидких выделений из ушей. При подозрениях на сотрясение мозга обратитесь к врачу в течение 1–2 дней после происшествия. Немедленно обратитесь за медицинской помощью, если симптомы ухудшаются. Выполняйте предписания врача. Воздерживайтесь от физических нагрузок и упражнений, пока врач не позволит вам приступить к ним.


If the victim has stopped breathing or has no pulse, either from drowning or from sudden cardiac arrest, perform CPR on the victim if you know how. Do not attempt it if you don't know how to do it, but keep yelling for help if help has not come yet to maximize your chances of finding someone who knows how to do CPR. Even if the person appears to be dead, do not give up. Icy water can lower body temperature and slow down body functions, and just because the person isn't moving or responding doesn't mean they aren't alive and in need of help. If the victim is breathing and conscious, bring him or her inside or somewhere warm. They may need to be treated for shock as soon as possible. Remove wet clothes and immerse the person in lukewarm water that's no warmer than 90° Fahrenheit, 32° Celsius at first; gradually warm the water up later. Immersing a victim of hypothermia in water that is too warm can cause dangerous heart rhythms. If warm water is not immediately available, wrap the person in blankets. Though you may think that giving the person something warm to eat or drink will help him or her, you should not give any food or drink to a person who is still in shock and unable to eat or drink. Even if the victim feels fine, he or she should still be examined by a medical professional. Though you have rescued the victim from the ice, you're not out of the woods quite yet. The repercussions of falling through ice, even for a few minutes, can be deadly. The person may be suffering from frostbite or a number of other complications. If you want to prevent future falls through the ice, you should always know the thickness of the ice where you'll be fishing, walking, snowboarding, or doing whatever it is you do on the ice. You can check the thickness of the ice by using an ice chisel, ice auger, cordless drill, or tape measure, and by calling the local bait shop or lakeside resort to ask about the ice conditions in the area. Here are the appropriate thicknesses for each activity:  2"  (5 cm) or less: Stay off the ice....

TL;DR in Russian:

If the vowels tell us what is most true about our inner self, perhaps the consonants tell us what is seen on the exterior. In the study of Numerology, this is held true. One's Personality Number reveals those parts of yourself that are easiest to show to others. It articulates how to filter the people and experiences you want out of life through your external behavior. This number goes beyond your own agency and also explains what others observe about you within a brief encounter. It shows the principal personality traits that are noticed with little effort on the part of those around you. Follow the same pattern as above using only the consonants to determine your number. Returning to ROBERT NESTA MARLEY we get the letters R, B, R, T, N, S, T, M, R, L, Y. Note that we count Y as a consonant and not a vowel in this case. Within numerology Y is always considered a consonant if it is next to a vowel with which it forms the same syllable. So it is in this example, where it functions to produce an "ee" sound.  R+B+R+T = 9+2+9+2 = 22 = 2+2 = 4  N+S+T = 5+1+2 = 8  M+R+L+Y = 4+9+3+7 = 23 = 2+3 = 5  4+8+5 = 17 = 1+7 = 8

If the webcam's program didn't automatically open upon completion of installation, you'll need to look up the program and open it manually. The webcam's program will usually have the webcam company's name in it, so try searching for the company (e.g., "youcam") in Start (Windows) or Spotlight (Mac). Many webcams have a clip on the base that allows the webcam to latch onto the top of a computer monitor. If your webcam doesn't have such a clip, look for a flat, elevated space in which to place the webcam. In the middle of your webcam program's window, you should see real-time footage from your webcam. Using the footage as a reference, adjust your webcam to point at your face from your preferred angle. While speaking into the webcam, look for spikes in activity next to the "Audio" (or similarly titled) section in the webcam's window. If you don't see any activity here, your webcam's microphone isn't working and might need to be enabled from the webcam's or computer's settings. Check your webcam's manual to see specific instructions on how to address lack of audio input. Most webcam programs will have a Settings section (or a gear-shaped icon) somewhere in the window. You can click on this section to view and change settings like contrast, low-light response, and so on. The settings location and options will vary from webcam to webcam. Consult your webcam's manual if you can't find the settings section.

If the window you're closing contains an open document, you may be prompted to save or dismiss that document before the window will close. If you aren't able to use the mouse or prefer a keyboard shortcut, you can also press ⌘ Cmd+Q on the keyboard to close the active window. This keyboard shortcut works in the same way as clicking the red circle at the top-left corner.  If you're using an app with tabs, such as a web browser, this shortcut will close the active tab only. To close all open tabs in the window, keep pressing ⌘ Cmd+W until all are closed. To close all open windows at once, press ⌘ Cmd+⌥ Option+W. Minimizing a window doesn't completely close it, but it does remove it from the screen until you need to bring it back into view. You can re-open the minimized window by clicking its icon at on the far-right side of the Dock. To minimize all open windows at once, press ⌘ Cmd+⌥ Option+M. Pressing this key will return you to your Mac's desktop immediately. When you're ready to re-open the windows you've hidden, just press Fn+F11. This command makes it look like the window is no longer open even though you're not closing the app. When you're ready to go back to the hidden window, click its application icon to re-open it. To hide all windows at once, press ⌘ Cmd+⌥ Option+H.

If the work that you do is what you love, it will be much easier for you to find a good work-life balance. Pick a profession that fits well with your interests and gives you a sense of fulfillment.  Every job comes with its set of difficulties and deadlines. If you are satisfied with what you’ve accomplished and proud of a job well done, you’ll be able to focus all of your energy on work while you are there.  You may need to switch jobs. If your job is too demanding, not helping you meet your career goals, or paying too little to be worth your time, it may be time for a change. Just as you should consider how your job or career affects your family, you should also think about how your family affects your ability to meet your career goals. Ask questions about who should work in your family. For example, if you’re married, should you and your spouse both work? What effect, both financial and personal, will this have? How many children can we take care of, while both of you are working? Are there any other family members that you can rely on to shoulder the load? Sometimes, finding a work-life balance means more than just balancing family time with work. Consider some of the following questions:  Does your job give you enough time to do other things that you are passionate about, like volunteering or taking classes? What about hobbies? Does your current job allow you to do things that make you happy outside of work? How far is your commute? If you choose to live further away from work, then you’ll spend that much more time every day commuting in between. Then there are the costs of maintaining a car. Consider finding a place to live that is closer to work.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите направление работы, которое поможет вам достичь своих целей. Думайте о балансе между работой и личной жизнью при планировании семьи. Оцените, как работа влияет на другие ваши обязательства.


If the wound completely punctures through the skin or is wider than two millimeters, you should consult a doctor or visit an emergency clinic. If you have trouble closing the wound on your own or can see any exposed muscle or fat, you will likely need stitches.  Getting stitches within a few hours of the injury will reduce the risk of scarring and infection. Keep in mind that wounds with jagged edges are more likely to become infected, so make sure you see a doctor if you have this type of wound. Call a doctor immediately if redness and swelling spread beyond the wound or infected site. If you’ve already seen your doctor, call them for a follow-up if a fever persists for two days after starting an antibiotic, or if the infected wound shows no signs of improvement for three days after starting an antibiotic.  Signs of a worsening infection may include:  Increased swelling Red streaks traveling away from the wound A foul odor coming from the wound Increased amounts of pus and fluid coming from the wound Fever Chills Nausea and/or vomiting Swollen lymph nodes When you have your doctor examine the infected wound, discuss whether you should take topical or oral antibiotics. A topic antibiotic is an ointment that you apply directly on the infected area and is the most common form of treatment. Oral antibiotics, or systemic antibiotics, are taken by the mouth and are best if your doctor believes the infection is spreading or if your immune system is compromised. Tell your doctor about fever or any other symptoms, and be sure to mention any chronic health conditions or medications that might have weakened your immune system. It’s always best to talk to a doctor about getting a tetanus shot if the wound is deep or dirty. Puncture wounds from soiled or rusty surfaces can cause tetanus, but most standard vaccination programs protect against the disease. If you haven’t had a tetanus shot in the last five years, you might need a booster. You should contact your doctor immediately if you have any concerns about the nature...

If their profile picture looks professionally done and can be found on a modeling website, chances are the person stole the picture. Sure, they may just be a lonely model, but how likely is that? You can use Google's image search or other reverse image search sites to see if this picture shows up on a stock image site. If someone is desperate to sound good, they may not remember that something like 6' and 95 lbs is not proportional, unless their diet is insane. It's up to you whether you're willing to get involved in an affair or not, but just remember this: if they've lied about their marital status, what else could they be lying about? A scammer's occupation is usually some type of "Engineer" for men and a "Model" for women. It's just another way to make themselves sound like a good pick. Engineers make heaps of money, and models normally look beautiful. Now doesn't that sound amazing? Use this to do a Google search to see if shows up on other websites. If the profile is for another photo or perhaps man or woman, this person may be using the words verbatim and is a fraudster. For example, ask things such as "What is your favorite character on the TV show?" that they listed.  If they list they have a specific car or boat; check what kind of mileage they get or brand of boat. Ask about a particular restaurant in the city and Google the address. Ask how to get there from another easily accessed address close to this; for example, McDonalds is on First Street there, so is that next to the XXXX? Google Maps will usually show street names and even a street picture to help you gauge the accuracy of the response.

If there are a few stains that won’t come off with regular cleaning, then you can try treating them with nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol. Rub the stain with a cloth that has been dipped in rubbing alcohol or nail polish remover. Always test the fabric before applying to stains to ensure that it does not leave a mark. In order to do this, you will need to apply baking soda to the stain and let it sit over night. The baking soda will absorb any grease from the leather. The next day, simply wipe the surface with a clean cloth. To do this, wipe off any loose dirt or dust, then wet your shoes using a damp cloth. Next, dab a small amount of toothpaste onto your shoes and rub in using your fingers. Pay close attention to any stains or scuff marks.  Scrub any tough stains with an old toothbrush. Then, wipe away the toothpaste using a damp cloth. Let the shoes dry in a warm spot. Combine lemon juice with cream of tartar. Mix together, adjusting the amounts, until a paste is formed. Rub the mixture onto the stain and let sit for approximately half an hour. Then, remove the mixture with a sponge and wipe with a clean cloth.

TL;DR in Russian:

If there are borders around your flower bed made of plastic, metal, or some other material and you no longer want to use them, pull them carefully out of the ground. Discard this old material. If you cannot pull this up by hand, try working a small hand trowel or pry bar under the bottom edge and levering it out. Sometimes the edging is anchored with stakes, so be sure to remove them first. If there is an existing border, and you want to keep the edging where it is, then you are ready for the next step. If you want to change where an existing border is positioned, or if you are making a completely new one, then you will need to mark on the ground where you want the border to be. Straight lines can be fine. Many people prefer curved edges, however, and they may make your flower bed look bigger. You can use a garden hose, string, or marking paint. Put the hose or other marking material on the ground where you want the actual edge to be.

If there are multiple Chinese restaurants around your area, take a look at each one of their menus.  Although many items on the menu will be similar or even identical, you might find more healthy options at certain places.  Some restaurants may offer a wider selection of certain foods.  Look for menus that have more steamed dishes, more vegetable dishes or are able to make changes or substitutions. Also check for a "healthy" or "diet-friendly" section of the menu.  Many restaurants now are catering to the large population of people looking to lose weight.  They may offer things under a certain calorie limit or that are cooked a bit healthier. Most Chinese restaurants offer a few different types of soup on their menu.  Starting with a soup can help curb your appetite and total calorie intake.  Studies have shown that if you start a meal by consuming a low-calorie soup, you end up eating less quantity and fewer calories overall.  Try order a "small" or cup of hot and sour soup.  This generally is about 100 calories and contains vegetables and broth. Although the soup may be low in calorie, it's most likely still higher in sodium.  Ask for a low-sodium option if available and plan on sticking to the small serving. No matter what entree or side dish you're in the mood for, try to go for the steamed option over fried.  This automatically cuts calories and fat.  Anything battered or marked as '"crispy" is deep fried, e.g. prawn crackers and spring rolls. Anything in batter means that it will be high in fat. If your order comes with the option of fried rice or steamed rice, always go for steamed.  Fried rice has over 100 more calories per serving than steamed rice.  Also go for steamed or stir-fried proteins.  Things like General Tso's chicken are deep fried and higher in calories.  Opt for a lower calorie option like chicken and broccoli. For appetizers, skip the egg roll and fried dumplings and order spring rolls or steamed dumplings instead.  Two steamed dumplings are only around 50 calories. Adding an extra...

If there are no children under the age of 21 born or adopted into the marriage and all property and debt division are unanimously agreed to, you can qualify for the expedited Uncontested Divorce Program. Only no-fault divorces, meaning the problems in the relationship have been ongoing for at least six months and cannot be reconciled, are eligible for this program. There can be no allegations of fault. At least one party must be willing to swear under oath to this breakdown of the marriage. To use this program, you must be at a computer equipped with Microsoft Word or the free Microsoft Word Viewer. The computer must also be attached to a printer to generate your filing copies. There is no online filing option in New York. The program has a checklist showing the information you will need before you start. Most of it is straight forward, such as names and contact information for the parties, the date and place of the marriage, and details of the settlement agreement.  A settlement agreement can be as simple as statements to the effect of, "Parties have separated the personal property and debts." If there are vehicles or leases, list them individually. For example, "Plaintiff will retain ownership of 2012 Toyota Camry, VIN #[number]," or "Defendant will retain the right to occupy the apartment located at [address]." If there is real estate, you must detail if it will be sold or if one of the parties will be keeping it. Detail out things like equity buy-outs or agreements on mortgage payments. For example, "Plaintiff will retain ownership and assume the mortgage of house located at [address]. Defendant will receive a lump sum payment of [amount] payable by [date]. Upon payment, defendant will execute the necessary deeds in favor of plaintiff." Even though you are using the Uncontested Divorce Program, consider consulting with an attorney to create the settlement agreement if there are any complicated issues such as investments and retirement accounts. A little work before filing can speed the divorce through the...

If there are no rules limiting how far you can go when playing this game, it's a good idea to set some personal limits with the person you'll be sharing your 7 minutes in heaven with. If you don't, the other player might misinterpret the signals you are setting and go too far.  You might say something like, "Can we just talk?" or "Let's talk first. I might be OK with a kiss, but I don't want to rush into it." You could also establish a firm boundary by saying, "Kissing is OK, but I'm not OK with other touching." Sometimes something will make you feel uncomfortable without you knowing it beforehand. When this happens, you should use straightforward language to tell the other player that you feel uncomfortable and want to stop.  For example, if you are touched in a way you don't like, you could say, "No. I don't want to be touched there." It can be difficult telling someone "No," but if you don't, things might go farther than you intended. You should never take part in something that makes you feel uncomfortable. This includes things like hand-holding, petting, or other kinds of touches that might exceed the personal boundaries of the other player. This way, you don't accidentally violate someone's boundaries without knowing. It only takes a quick second to ask, "Is it OK if I hold your hand?" or "Is it alright for me to touch you like this?"

Перед началом игры установите четкие границы. Не стесняйтесь повысить голос, если что-то пойдет не так. Если вы хотите попробовать что-то новое, спросите другого игрока, как он к этому относится.


If there are some relatives you know will always annoy you, try to avoid seeing them or being around them if possible.  If you cannot avoid them entirely, just try to spend as little time as possible with them.  If you have to spend time with them, speak with them as little as possible. If you have to be around your super-annoying relatives, try ignoring them when they say something to you, when they do something annoying, or just walk away. Ignoring annoying behaviors (and there are many) is a good way to rise above the crowd and not to engage, even if they are annoying you. Solitary activities can build a wall of insulation around you when you are in a place where there are annoying relatives.  Go into the kitchen, or a bedroom, just to get away.  Wear headphones. Wearing headphones shows the people around you that you are not interested in talking, and that you're really interested in your music, podcast, or whatever.  Read a book. Generally, even annoying people will not interrupt you when you are reading. If they do, just reply, "I'm reading something for work/school/ that's important." A buffer can be a person who knows how to handle the annoying relatives, like a mom, dad, sibling or friend, who can deal so that you don't have to.  Social buffers should be made aware of their role ahead of time. Don't just bring one and expect them to do all the work while you hide out.  Social buffering should be reciprocated!

TL;DR in Russian:

Избегайте встреч. Игнорируйте раздражающих родственников. Займитесь уединенным делом. Используйте социальный буфер.


If there are specific cleaning and assembly techniques suggested by the manufacturer, you'll want to follows those directions first. If you can't find the instructions, check the company website. They may have an online instruction book you can access to show you how to clean and assemble the tree. Remove all ornaments, lights, and any debris that has become tangled in the tree, such as sticks, leaves, and straw. Use the fabric attachment to vacuum dust and dirt off the tree. You can also use a leaf blower to blow debris off the tree, while keeping a careful distance to avoid damaging the tree. Fill a bucket with soapy water and use a soft dish rag to wipe down the individual branches and the trunk. As before, work around and then from top to bottom.   Replace the water as necessary. Allow the tree to dry thoroughly before plugging the lights back in. Be sure to use lights and decorations that will be able to withstand the weather.

TL;DR in Russian:

Проверьте прилагаемые к елке инструкции по уходу. Отключите елку от сети и снимите с нее украшения. Воспользуйтесь метелкой от пыли или пылесосом, допускающим уличное использование. Вымойте дерево. Нарядите елку.


If there are stains on your clothing, they may harbor a smell. Before attempting to wash out the stains, sprinkle baking powder or coffee grounds on the stains. This will help neutralize the odor. Let the coffee grounds or baking soda sit on the stain for a few hours before brushing them off and washing the stain. Liquid dishwashing detergent that's made to target grease can help remove gasoline stains. Gently rub the detergent into the stains until they lift. Then, rinse the garment and wash it in the washing machine as usual. Remember you should always hang-dry clothing that came into contact with gasoline. Baby oil can also help lift gasoline stains. You can pour baby oil directly on the stains and rub the stains out. You can also toss rags soaked with baby oil into the washing machine with your gasoline-stained clothes. Unfortunately, sometimes the gasoline smell remains on your clothes despite your best efforts. While this can be frustrating, professional services can help. If you can't get stains or smell out of your clothes at home, contact a local dry cleaner. You can find dry cleaners online. If your clothing has been very stained or damaged by gasoline, professional dry cleaning services may help treat your clothes.

TL;DR in Russian:

Нейтрализуйте пятна и запахи с помощью кофейной гущи или пищевой соды. Удалите пятна cредством для мытья посуды. Используйте детское масло. Отдайте одежду в химчистку.


If there are still stains on the mattress from the vomit, you may need a targeted cleaner. Combine 1 cup (237 ml) warm water and 1 cup (237 ml) of white vinegar in a spray bottle and shake well to mix thoroughly. For extra cleaning power, you can also mix in 1 teaspoon (5 ml) of liquid dish soap. Just make sure it's not a moisturizing formula. After you've prepared the vinegar mixture, apply it to the stains on the mattress. Don't oversaturate the mattress; spray the stained area until it is just damp. Next, blot the mattress with a clean towel to lift the stain. Choose a towel that is extremely absorbent for blotting the mattress. Depending on the stain, one application of the vinegar solution may not be enough to remove the stain. Apply it to the mattress and blot it as many times as necessary to completely remove the vomit stains. Make sure to have plenty of clean towels on hand for the blotting. You don't want to blot the mattress over and over with the same towel because you can wind up spreading the stain. After you've removed the stain from the mattress, it's important to let it dry. Give the mattress at least 6 to 8 hours to dry. You can help the drying process by turning on an overhead fan, aiming a freestanding fan at the mattress, or opening a window near the bed. Even after you clean the mattress, there can still be germs left behind after someone vomits. When the mattress is dry, spray the affected area lightly with rubbing alcohol to kill any lingering germs. Instead of rubbing alcohol, you can dab some unscented hand sanitizer on the mattress to kill the germs. After you've applied the rubbing alcohol, allow the mattress to dry completely. It should take about 6 hours, but it's a good idea to let it air dry overnight to be certain it's dry. Be sure to keep children and pets away from the mattress until the alcohol is dry.

TL;DR in Russian:

Смешайте воду и белый уксус в пропорции 1:1. Побрызгайте приготовленной смесью на пятно и как следует промокните его. Повторяйте процесс, пока не выведете пятно. Оставьте матрас на ночь, чтобы он высох. Используйте медицинский спирт, чтобы убить микробов. Еще раз высушите матрас.


If there is a chance that you might run into a snake, take care to be very observant. If you are going on a hike or camping, you should be conscious of your surroundings. Be aware of where snakes are most likely to appear.  When you are hiking, stay on the trail as much as possible. You might still encounter a snake, but it is less likely than if you wander off of the trail. Avoid tall grass. These areas are very appealing to many types of snakes. Snakes like to hide under rocks and logs. Be careful when walking near these areas. Keep your eyes open and be on the lookout for snakes. You should also use caution when rock climbing. Snakes like to hide in nooks and crannies. Look before placing your hand somewhere on the rock. Ideally, being mindful of your environment will help you to stay away from snakes. However, that is not always possible. If you do encounter a snake, there are several things you can do to remain safe.  Try not to panic. Staying calm can help you make the right decisions and help you to stay safe. Don't make any sudden movements in the direction of the snake. Just remain calm, and try not to startle the animal. Remember that the snake was not out looking for you. It likely was just trying to find a place to get warm. One of the most effective ways to survive an encounter with a snake is to not engage. If you come across a snake in your path, walk away. If you can't turn and go the other direction, make sure to give the snake a wide berth as you circle around it.  Remember that most snakes have no desire to be around people. That is why you rarely see them. If you see a snake in your yard or garden, just stay away from it. It is likely that the snake will flee when it sees you. Sometimes you might encounter an aggressive snake or one that is cornered. The same advice applies. Do not try to capture the snake. Just head the other direction. Loud sounds can help you to drive a snake from your path. Snakes don't have ears, but they are very sensitive to vibrations. Loud sounds are likely to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Принимайте во внимание окружающую среду. Сохраняйте спокойствие. Уйдите. Издавайте громкие звуки.


If there is a fluid problem around your chin area, it may need further consideration.  If there is simply fluid retention, ask your doctor to refer you to a masso-therapist who can expertly massage the area to try to unblock the fluid and assist with better posture and relaxation. Your appearance is more than your genetic features.  How you dress, how you present yourself, how you communicate with others, how you share your sense of you with others and how much confidence you have in yourself as a worthy human being are all worth 1000 times more than the appearance of a double chin.

TL;DR in Russian:

Посетите своего врача. Цените себя таким, какой вы есть.


If there is a large number of quills, the experience will be much less painful when performed by a doctor. Do not attempt to remove quills on a person's face or throat at home. The removal process is painful and requires the patient to sit still for a long period of time while quills are extracted. Remove the quills as soon as possible after the injury occurs. If the injured person struggles, there is risk that the quill tip may break off and lodge deeper in the skin, which risks causing serious problems. Take the person to a doctor if the person will not remain still. Many people cut the hollow quill before removing so that it deflates and become smaller. Professionals, however, advise not to do this, as it can make the quill harder to grasp and could cause it to break apart into several splinters. You may need pliers of different sizes if there are both small and large quills present. Quills require tools for removal because they have barbed ends along their surfaces which make them easy to stick into an object but difficult to remove in the opposite direction. If you attempt to pull quills by hand they will burrow into your fingers. Use the tool to grab the quill as near to the skin as possible. You could even push the skin down around the quill, as long as you are careful not to break the quill or cause too much pain to the injured person. Use a powerful, rapid motion to pull the quill out as firmly and quickly as possible. Do not twist the quill, which can cause breakage. Try to pull it out at the same angle it entered, directly backward out of the wound. Broken quills can embed themselves into the skin and cause infection. See a doctor if this occurs. If you are not able to visit a doctor, sanitize a pair of clean (dirt-free) tweezers by putting them in boiling water for five minutes. Remove the tweezers from the water with tongs and let cool on a clean paper towel for a few minutes before you use them to remove the broken quill tip inside the wound. Ask the patient if they have any pains elsewhere on...

TL;DR in Russian:

В серьезных случаях обратитесь к врачу. Попросите человека сохранять спокойствие. Никогда не обрезайте иглу перед удалением. Захватите иглу плоскогубцами или зажимом. Захватите иглу у основания. Тяните иглу гладко. Рассмотрите область, где была игла, чтобы убедиться, что верхушка не оторвалась. Повторите процесс удаления для каждой иглы, которую можете найти. Вылечите раны. Примените мазь с антибиотиком на раны. Проверяйте рану каждый день на наличие признаков инфекции. Попросите врача вакцину против бешенства, как можно скорее.


If there is a nice walking path or scenic hike nearby, this can be a good way to clear your head and get some exercise. Try to find some place you haven’t been before.  If there aren’t any scenic nature areas around, try walking through an interesting neighborhood you’ve never been too before. Prepare a quick meal like sandwiches and cold drinks in a basket and enjoy having them at the park or by the riverside. It will be even more fun if you have a simple game to play with your friends or family. Riding a bike is good exercise and it can get you much further than your feet would on their own. Use a bike ride as an opportunity to explore a place you’ve never been before. Going to places that you haven't been before is one great way to learn more about history, people and culture. You can backpack to save money. If a trip abroad is outside of budget, consider traveling to a nearby city you’ve never been to.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отправляйтесь на прогулку. Отправляйтесь на пикник. Отправляйтесь на велопрогулку. Подумайте о путешествиях.


If there is a part of your face or body that you particularly want to emphasize, use a photo editing application to zoom in on it, then save the edit.  Most smart phones and computers have photo editing software available, most of which is very user-friendly. Any parts of the photograph that are not flattering can be cropped out.  If you took the photo with one arm, it’s usually best to crop the arm out of the picture, as it will look enlarged.  If you think your hair looks crazy, crop it out.  No one has to see the photos as you take them: don’t be afraid to edit before you share. Many photo-sharing websites have built-in filtering options.  These will alter the appearance of your photo, bring out different colors and changing brightness and contrast.  Experiment with different filters until you find one that makes your photo look the best. In addition to general photo editing software and applications, there are also applications that are made specifically for touching-up portraits.  With these editing software programs, you can remove blemishes, eliminate red eye, and perform other touch-ups to even your skin tone and perfect your photo. While most people hope that their photos are ‘not’ blurry, sometimes a little selective blurring can improve your photo.  By leaving part of the picture in focus and blurring other parts, you can direct the viewer to focus on what you’d like to emphasize and you can reduce the emphasis on other things, like awkward backgrounds or unflattering traits.

TL;DR in Russian:

Приблизьте нужную область. Обрежьте кадр, чтобы убрать все лишнее. Используйте фильтр. Отретушируйте фотографию. Используйте эффект размытия.


If there is a potential move, especially on short notice, make sure you are prepared for that eventuality. Everything that you can prepare ahead of time will be that much less that you have to prepare when the time comes. Problems with your visa may cause delays in your ability to go. Make sure your passport is current. If you need a new one, that is the first order of business. It can take several weeks to apply for and receive a new passport. Before all else, draw up a plan that can be checked off as things are done. This plan needs to be thorough and it should include deadlines. Here are some other considerations:   Discussing the packing and shipping arrangements. Interview at least three different companies and get their quotes for the move. Find out what each company is prepared to do: specialized packing, dealing with your wine cellar (this can be problematic), helping with pets, timing guarantees, storage at the other end, etc. Also, discuss the possibility of storing possessions in your current country. If this move is short-term and you intend to return, it might be best to leave some—or even most—items behind. Deciding what to do with your current home if you own it. Are you going to sell it or rent it out? If selling, talk to a real estate agent and tell them about your plans. Ask yourself if you have time to wait for the best offer, or you need to sell quickly to get the money. Be careful how you convey this to your agent—you still want the best price, whatever your hurry. If renting it out, interview agents responsible for rental properties and be sure you are one hundred percent happy with their services. Ask for references and if possible, favor an agent used to renting out properties for overseas landlords—it's much harder to be an overseas landlord and much can go wrong in your absence if the agent fails to meet their basic obligations of checking the property regularly and vetting tenants properly.  Dealing with mortgages, leases and loans. You will need to talk to your bank or other...

TL;DR in Russian:

If there is a red squiggly line beneath a word, then that word is misspelled. If there is a green squiggly line beneath a phrase or sentence, it means that the phrase is grammatically or syntactically incorrect. You don't need to run the Spelling & Grammar tool – these markers should appear of their own accord as you make mistakes. Most versions of Word will auto-correct slightly-misspelled words, but you may need to fix the punctuation yourself. There should be a small picture of a book along the bottom of the page, near the bottom-left corner. If there is a check on it, then there are no errors in the document. If there is a red X, then click on the book. The program will pull up various errors and suggested corrections. When you right-click on the red-underlined word or green-underlined phrase, a menu will appear to offer actions and suggestions. You should see a list of suggested "correct alternatives" to your word or phrase. You will also have the option to Ignore or Ignore All. If you wrote "whats", for instance, Word will give you the option to correct the word to "what's" – along with "what," "whets," "whites," and "wheats." Click on the suggestion that seems right, and the program will automatically replace the misspelled word with its correct counterpart. Again – if you aren't sure, run a web search to find the right spelling for the disputed word. Notice which words you consistently misspell. Try to learn from your mistakes so that you make fewer of them. Set the intention of practicing your spelling, and try to catch yourself when you slip up. If you're having especial trouble, consider using flashcards or a flashcard app to train yourself in proper punctuation use.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поищите в документе красные и зеленые линии. После того как вы щелкнете правой кнопкой мыши по слову, подчеркнутому красной линией, или по фразе (предложению), подчеркнутой зеленой линией, откроется меню с вариантами исправлений или действий. Выберите правильное исправление. Обратите внимание, в каких словах вы постоянно допускаете ошибки.


If there is already a crack in the nutshell, then your job will be much easier. First, squeeze the two half-shells to widen the crack until it won't get any bigger. Then, peel the pistachio open from the crack. Wedge your thumbnails into the crack and pull them apart in opposite directions. Use your forefingers to brace the nut so that you can apply more force to the shell. Try using an already-opened shell half to pry open a new pistachio. The shells are sturdy enough that you can use them to open one other. The pistachio is more difficult to open if the crack is very small, or if there is no crack at all. Place the pistachio on a clean, sturdy surface like a plate, a counter-top, or a cutting board. Then, gently tap the nut with a hammer or another heavy object until a crack forms in the shell. Finally, use your thumbnails to pull the shell all the way open. Use a nutcracker, if you have one. The nutcracker is a tool specifically designed to open up thick nutshells. Place the pistachio between the two arms of the nutcracker, then squeeze the two arms shut to crack the nut. You can buy the nuts already opened, if you like, which makes them somewhat easier to eat. However, be aware that pistachios sold in the shell are typically less expensive. They may also be more likely to be organic. Studies have shown that eating pistachios in the shell slows down the eating process and lowers overall consumption. Pistachio nuts contain three to four calories each—fewer than almost any another nut—but it can be easy to eat a lot of them when they come pre-shelled. Consider keeping pistachios a "slow" snack by de-shelling them yourself.

TL;DR in Russian:

Раскройте скорлупу вдоль трещины. Разбейте орешки без трещин. Купите предварительно лущенные фисташки.


If there is any debris caught in the ignition cylinder, it may cause the key to fail to engage the pins properly to turn.  Purchase canned air from a local retail or office supply store and insert the straw from the nozzle directly into the key hole.  Spray the canned air into the key hole in short spurts.  It should only take a few short sprays to clean out any debris.  Do not spray the entire can into the key hole.  The extreme cold could result in damage to the ignition cylinder. Wear eye protection when using canned air to clean the key hole to ensure no debris gets into your eyes. If the ignition cylinder has seized, spraying a small amount of electrical cleaner into the key hole may lubricate it enough to turn.  Be careful not to spray too much into the key hole.  A few short squirts should suffice.  Once done, insert the key and turn it back and forth gently to work the lubricant in. If this works, you may need to replace the ignition cylinder soon as it gets progressively worse. If all else fails, you will need to have your ignition cylinder replaced.  Have your vehicle towed to a nearby repair facility that specializes in your make and model of vehicle.  Explain the issue and discuss your options.  Just like having a new key cut, you will need to demonstrate sufficient ownership of the vehicle in order to have a new ignition cylinder installed. A new ignition cylinder will likely require replacing your key, even if it wasn’t the issue.

TL;DR in Russian:

Очистите отверстие замка зажигания с помощью баллончика со сжатым воздухом. Используйте для очистки отверстия небольшое количество очистителя электрических контактов. Замените личинку замка зажигания.


If there is any element of your wish that can be acted upon before the next day, do it. For example, if you wish is that you do well on a big test, study the night before and review your notes! If your wish revolves around falling in love, call up the boy or girl that you have a crush on and ask them out on a date! You can’t sit back and hope that all of your wildest dreams come true without working towards achieving them. If your wish can be achieved with the help of others, see if your close friends or family members would be willing to help. Tell them what your wish is and explain what you want to achieve over the course of a night. Even if they don’t offer to help you directly, they may have a piece of advice that will help you get closer to your goal. Say, “I am hoping to make something come true tonight, do you have a minute to talk about it?” to determine what you need to do to make your wish come true. Before you go to sleep, sit down with a blank piece of paper and a pen or pencil. Write down every actionable step that you can take in the next couple of days to make your wish come true. Keep the to-do list in a visible place in your room, and work from top to bottom. Cross off each item as you complete it.  For example, if your wish is to graduate from a good college, include items like, “Identify good schools that I can afford,” “Figure out the application process,” and, “Visit potential schools over the summer.” Put the easiest items at the top of your list to give you a couple of easy wins. This will make it easier to get the ball rolling and gain momentum. Take the original piece of paper that you wrote your wish on and fold it under your pillow. Go to sleep that night thinking about your wish coming true. You will sleep better that night knowing that you wish is secure under your pillow, and keeping it close to your head will help focus your mind as you sleep!

TL;DR in Russian:

If there is more than one entrance to a room, make sure that there is a clear and fairly straight path between them (it can "arc" around a seating area if necessary). This can also help divide a space and make sure each entrance has an open area facing it. Think about how someone would need to move through a room. The consider where your furniture is. Is something going to get in the way? Make it difficult to get from one area to the next? Make sure these barriers are moved or at least broken up. Not only do you want to be able to sit down on your couch easily, you also want to be able to reach things like outlets easily. Have at least one easily reachable with a nearby, low table. This will allow you a space to charge electronics, like phones and portable media devices. You can also use furniture to break up large spaces, although this should be considered earlier on in the process. If you have a very large, open room, it will be better to use the furniture to break the space up into sections. For example, use the backs of couches in place of walls to create a living room and make the space on the other side the dining area.

If there is no breathing and no pulse, start chest compressions. If there is a pulse but no breathing, just give ventilation. A person will always have a pulse if he or she is breathing, but one can have a pulse and not be breathing. After 2 minutes, check for breathing. If there is no breathing, continue breathing treatment (rescue breathing). If there is breathing, put the patient in the recovery position. 30 times and continue until you have completed 5 cycles. cycles (2 min) then check for breathing and pulse.
