The best thing you can do to improve your grades is focus and pay attention when the information is first presented to you. It's easy to lose focus when your teacher is going on and on about something that's  not interesting, but you should not tune them out. Really listen to what they're saying and keep yourself engaged by asking questions and taking notes. . It might seem silly, but notes are actually a great way to help you improve your grades. Good notes are like a road map, when you go to study later on. They'll also show your teachers that you're serious about doing better in your classes. You don't have to write down everything your teacher says: just get down the basics. You know when you tell your parents about what happened to you during the day? That's how you should take notes. Just get the broad strokes, with the really important things written with greater detail.  If you know something is confusing to you or seems really complex, write that down too! Even if you don't understand what your teacher is saying, you'll have a note to yourself that you need to look that up and get more information later. Write out your notes by hand, instead of on a computer. You will have an easier time remembering them this way. When you don't understand a concept or fact that your teachers talks about in lecture or that you encounter in your text books, don't be afraid to ask! Smart people don't just know everything instantly...they're curious enough to ask and find out when they don't know something.  If you're nervous about asking in front of everyone else, you can also talk to your teacher outside of class time and ask about getting some extra help or explanation. You also shouldn't feel like your teacher would be angry about you not understanding. Teachers are happy when you're interested enough and invested enough to ask for help. If your teacher doesn't explain it in a way that you can understand or if you still feel uncomfortable, try going on the Internet to find a new explanation. You can often find...

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте внимательными в классе. Конспектируйте урок (лекцию) Задавайте вопросы, если материал урока вам непонятен (неважно, излагает ли этот материал преподаватель или вы прочитали его в учебнике). Изучайте дополнительный материал. Перекусывайте в течение дня. Выработайте собственный стиль обучения.


The best time for a baby’s or toddler’s birthday is on a weekend afternoon. The parents are generally available for a couple of hours and the invited kids (birthday honoree included) can nap before or after. Choose a day that’s a 2-3 weeks out to give the parents advanced notice.  Have a start and end time, say 1-3 pm. This way no one shows up too late and they don’t feel pressure to stage an awkward exit at some point in the day; there will be an actual group exodus 2 hours later. This makes it easy on the child ‘’and’’ easy on the parents. It’s no pressure and convenient, so they’ll be more likely to come. This is also a good amount of time to fit into everyone's schedules. This is one of the only times in your child’s life where the guests are going to very different people of mixed ages. They’ll be friends, neighbors, family members, and children close to your child’s age, though not necessarily the same. Think about how many people you can handle being the host. Generally speaking, a good number is around 10. The more ages and types you bring, the more you’ll have to be accommodating. If other young children are present, they’ll need entertaining. You’ll need "adult food" and "child food," too. Think about what each person would need when you’re compiling your list. You’ll need to send out invites for the guests either via snail mail, email, or phone call. Having something tangible is best – a text or a phone call is easily forgettable. There are a few websites like Evite that can set up “personalized” invitations for you, too.  The main benefit of snail mail is that you can make it truly your own. If you go this route, consider adding a personal touch with your baby’s handprint on the invite. That’s one for the scrapbook! However, you’ll likely want to send out a phone call or a text 3-5 days before the party to make sure everyone has remembered the event and to gather RSVPs. Many parents don’t want more toys for their children. If you want something specific for gifts, be direct on the invitation....

TL;DR in Russian:

The best time to apply spray deodorant is after a shower or after you have cleaned your underarms. Your skin should also be dry before you apply spray deodorant. This is the easiest way to avoid spraying clothes. If you are in a situation where you cannot completely remove your shirt, simply pull aside your sleeves until your armpit is uncovered. Most spray deodorants will have a lid. Place the lid in a safe area where you will not lose it. Using the opposite hand of the armpit you will be spraying, grip the container. For example, if you are spraying your left armpit, hold the spray in your right hand. It is necessary to shake the can of spray deodorant before applying it. You must do this every time you spray the deodorant. At this point, your arm should be raised in the air, revealing your armpit. The spray deodorant can will have a hole where the spray will come out; ensure the hole is facing your armpit. This way, when you spray your underarm, the spray will not accidentally spray your face or body. Spray your underarm for 4-5 seconds. The mist of the spray should coat your entire armpit.  Take care to not get the spray in your eyes. The spray will dry quickly. Repeat this step to with your other armpit. Now that you've applied spray deodorant to both of your armpits, replace the lid, and put your deodorant away.

TL;DR in Russian:

Кожа должна быть чистой. Снимите футболку. Снимите крышечку. Возьмите баллончик. Взболтайте дезодорант. Держите баллончик на расстоянии нескольких сантиметров от подмышки. Распылите дезодорант тонким слоем. Закройте дезодорант крышкой.


The best time to confess a crush? Right now. There's no use in waiting, because you're only giving your crush the opportunity to start dating someone else, or find someone else to crush on and forget about you. If you know someone and like them, the perfect time is now. The only time you should wait is when your crush is currently dating someone. Telling someone that you like them while they're in a relationship can make things kind of complicated. It's best to find someone else to crush on for a while, and return to the person later when they're single. Despite what you may think, telling someone that you like them shouldn't be a big deal. Even if they don't feel the same way, it'll be such a nice thing to say! Especially if you approach them in a calm and cool way, being gentle and humorous in your approach. Make it easy and try to take the pressure off yourself.  Build yourself up before you do it. Look in the mirror and say, "I got this. I'm a cool person my crush should want to be with." Then go put yourself out there. Look your best on the day you decide to do it. Wear clean, stylish clothes that fit you well and flatter you, and make sure you're fresh-breathed and clean-haired. If you don't know your crush very well, it can be kind of difficult to confess a crush. The last thing you want to do is to take the risk of saying so and having them say, "Wait, who are you?" If you're not sure whether or not the person knows you, go up to them and introduce yourself. It doesn't have to be complicated: "Hey, I don't know if you know me real well. We're in the same grade, I think we had Mr. Robinson's class last year? Well, I've wanted to tell you something for a while..." The best way to have this conversation is in private. It's important that both of you feel as comfortable and calm as possible, to avoid making this a super-big-deal, but it's also good to have a little privacy so it's less embarrassing.  Passing between class periods can be a great time to catch someone really quickly. Right after class or...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не мешкайте. Сохраняйте спокойствие. Поздоровайтесь или представьтесь. Говорите наедине, без посторонних. Спланируйте свидание или мероприятие. Переходите к делу. Не переживайте по поводу отказа.


The best time to plant cilantro depends on where you live. Cilantro won't survive in frosty conditions, but it doesn't like extreme heat either. In temperate climates, the best time to start planting cilantro is in late spring, between the months of March and May (Northern Hemisphere). In more tropical climates, cilantro will grow better during cooler, dry times of year, such as fall.  You may also have success by planting cilantro late in the summer and allowing it to grow into the fall. If the weather becomes too hot, the cilantro plants will start to bolt - which means they will flower and go to seed, so choose your time of year wisely. To get a head start on the weather, try starting your seeds indoors and then transfer them outside as the weather improves. Select a patch of soil where the cilantro will get full exposure to the sun. It will tolerate some shade in southerly areas where the sun gets very hot during the day. The soil should be light and well-drained with a pH of 6.2 to 6.8. If you wish to cultivate the soil before planting, use a shovel, rototiller or spade to work 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) of an organic mulch such as compost, rotten leaves or manure into the top layer of soil. If you are using manure, make sure the manure is composted or aged for at least 3 months so it doesn't burn the young plants. Rake the area smooth before planting. Sow the seeds about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) deep, spaced 6 to 8 inches (15.2 to 20.3 cm) apart, in rows approximately 1 foot (0.3 m) apart. Cilantro seeds need plenty of moisture to germinate, so make sure to water them frequently. They need about an inch of water per week. They should germinate in about 2 to 3 weeks. As cilantro grows so quickly, you should plant a new batch of seeds every 2 to 3 weeks to ensure that you have a fresh supply of cilantro throughout the growing season. Once the seedlings have reached about 2 inches (5.1 cm) in height, you can fertilize them with compost or organic fertilizer. Be careful not to over-fertilize, you only need...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите время года. Подготовьте участок под кориандр. Посадите семена кориандра. Ухаживайте за кориандром. Не позволяйте кориандру разрастись. Соберите урожай кориандра. Решите, будете ли вы оставлять саженцы кориандра на цветение.


The best time to propagate a succulent is when the plant develops a long, woody stem at the bottom. This often occurs because the plant isn't getting enough light, so it grows taller and the leaves begin to space out to reach more light.  A succulent with a long stem is called a leggy plant. Take leaves from the bottom of the plant, and leave the younger and smaller growth near the top. Your propagation attempt will have a better chance of succeeding if you start with healthy mother leaves. To find healthy leaves to propagate, look for succulent leaves that:  Are uniformly colored with no discoloration Aren't ripped or torn Don’t have any spots or marks Are full and plump looking The best way to remove a leaf for propagation is to gently remove it with your fingers. Grab a healthy leaf with your thumb and forefinger. Hold the leaf firmly but gently near the base, where it attaches to the stem. Twist it back and forth slightly, and delicately wiggle it back and forth until it comes off. Hold the leaf by the base to prevent breakage. The entire base of the leaf must come off the stem, otherwise it will die. After you remove the leaves from the stem, lay them out on a towel or parchment-lined baking sheet. Place them somewhere warm in indirect sunlight to dry. Leave them for three to seven days, until the wound heals and a callous or scab forms where the leaf was removed from the stem. If you place the cut leaves in soil before the wounds heal, they will rot and die before they grow into new plants.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите подходящее время. Выберите здоровые листья. Отломите листья от стебля. Подсушите места сломов на листьях.


The best time to start prewriting for your response paper is immediately after you finish reading the text so that the ideas are still fresh in your mind. If you cannot do any prewriting immediately after, at least do some as soon after as possible. Even if you think your ideas would benefit from simmering for a little while before performing a thorough analysis, you should still take the time to write down your initial reaction while it is fresh. In many ways, your initial reaction is the most honest. You can talk yourself into another reaction as time passes, and that other reaction may seem more “intellectual,” but your initial response was your true reaction to the text and should be kept in mind. A response paper is centered around your personal, subjective reaction to the text. You may have a general sense about how the text made you feel, but you need to analyze your own feelings regarding the work well enough to understand the underlying thoughts responsible for that feeling.  Questions worth asking yourself include: How does the text relate to you personally, whether in the past, present, or future? How does the text relate to the human experience as a whole? Does the text agree or disagree with your worldview and sense of ethics? Did the text help you to learn about the topic or understand an opposing view? Were your opinions or previous assumptions challenged or confirmed? Does the text directly address topics that you care about or consider important? Was the text enjoyable or admirable for its genre? In other words, if the text was fictional, was it enjoyable as entertainment or art? If it was historical, was it admirable from the perspective of a historian? If it was philosophical, was it adequately logical? What is your overall reaction? Would you recommend the work to another person?   As you progress through these questions, write your answers down. In addition to writing down your answers and reactions, also provide evidence from the text to support these answers. Evidence can be in the form...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не затягивайте. Задайте себе вопрос о вашей реакции. Определите, какая реакция самая сильная. Выберите центр внимания или структурные аргументы.


The best time to use a beard oil is when your skin and hair are still damp. Start by climbing into a warm shower and cleaning your beard thoroughly with shampoo. The heat will help open up your pores, allowing you to benefit more from the eucalyptus oil.  Your facial hair should be damp, not soaking wet. Be sure to towel off before you apply the oil. If you’re between showers, just wash your face with warm water to open pores before you begin applying the oil. For shorter, newer beard growth, 2-3 drops should be enough. For longer beards, use a dime-sized dab to ensure maximum coverage. Rub the oil between the palms of both hands. Remember: Less is more. Essential oils are very potent, so you’ll only need to use a small amount. Stroke the hair from root to tip using the length of your hand. Massage the oil directly into your skin with your fingertips—this is where its unique properties will do the most good. Use additional drops as needed to cover areas where growth is the thickest.  Use your fingers or a beard comb to spread the oil deep into the inner reaches of your beard. You may experience a cool, tingling sensation when undiluted oil comes into contact with your skin. As the oil sits on your face and hair, it will begin to infiltrate into the pores and follicles, nourishing them deep down. In the meantime, avoid scratching, wiping or pulling at your face. At around the thirty minute mark, you can either pat your beard with a dry towel to remove excess oil or leave it and go about your day.  With the exception of those with sensitive skin, eucalyptus oil is mild and safe to use topically without having to be rinsed clean afterwards. Feel free to leave the oil in until your next shower. Use a fine-tooth comb (or better yet, a specialized beard comb) to brush out your facial hair. This will give your beard a softer, fuller texture and appearance while also helping to better distribute the oil within. Afterwards, your beard will look and feel better than ever.  Like your head hair, your facial hair needs to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Примите душ. Выжмите несколько капель эвкалиптового масла на ладонь. Вотрите масло в бороду. Оставьте масло как минимум на полчаса. Расчешите бороду.


The best tomatoes to use for making juice are ripe heirloom tomatoes that taste delicious raw. If a slice of the tomato has great flavor and texture, the juice will come out tasting great, too. Look for tomatoes at the peak of tomato season at your local produce market or farmer's market. Keep in mind that you should be looking for juicy, sandwich or salad tomatoes, rather than paste tomatoes.  Organic tomatoes are better to use than commercially-grown tomatoes that use pesticides. You don't want to be able to taste chemicals in your juice. You can choose one variety or a combination. Early Girl and Big Boy varieties produce more juice, while Roma tomatoes produce thicker juice (if using Roma tomatoes (paste tomatoes), you may want to combine them with some other, juicier tomato varieties). You do not want them to return to room temperature, but they should be cool enough to reduce the risk of accidental burns. Store it for at least 30 minutes before serving. Stir the juice well before drinking. Your tomato juice can last up to one week when kept refrigerated in a tightly-sealed container.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите спелые, сочные помидоры. Снимите помидоры с плиты и дайте им остыть в течение нескольких минут. Накройте сок и охладите его в холодильнике.


The best tools for walking a husky are the front clip harness and the head halter. Harnesses also work, but if you want your dog to learn to pull use the harness for that job. Your husky can learn to pull in a harness and walk nicely with a head halter. Train with the right equipment. Don't let your husky pull you with while wearing a collar or head harness (even just down the road on your skateboard). The dog can damage its neck and back. Always use a harness. Training your dog to come when called is called a recall. Recall training should only be practiced outdoors if your dog is on a leash. To be successful in the recall start practicing it as early as possible.  Force-free methods - methods that reinforce with things your dog likes - work best in creating a solid recall.  One of the best way to train a solid recall is to start training your husky at a young age. Make sure it’s on a leash in an enclosed area (fenced in yard) and at a time when it is more relaxed—after a moderate amount of exercise is a great time. Keep some small tasty treats (tiny slivers of cheese or cooked chicken breast) in your pocket. Let your dog wander around then call its name saying “Come (insert name).” When he or she comes praise it and give it a treat. Work on this training for short periods of time (5-10 minutes) over the course of a week. When your dog is coming consistently to you, you can stop giving treats and only giving praise when it comes to you. It’s an invaluable and potentially lifesaving lesson to learn. Every time your husky has a chance to run free, either by choice or by accident, it will learn that running free is fun and it will want to be free to run as much as possible. Limit this from a young age if possible. This is especially important around cats and other small animals the dog might mistake for prey. In order to manage your dog's natural instinct to hunt, you need to keep your dog contained, train it to respond to your commands immediately, and give it outlets for its energy.  Keep a husky contained...

Используйте надлежащие средства дрессировки. Твердо приучите собаку реагировать на ваш зов. Научитесь управлять выраженным охотничьим драйвом хаски (маламута).


The best type of sock to work with a knee socks. Choose something with an interesting pattern that would work well for a pai of fingerless gloves, such as stripes. This includes the heel and toes. Simply cut in a straight line just above the heel part, where the straight part of the sock begins. Discard the foot part, or save it for another project. Place your palm and arm on top of the sock. Align the original hem with the top of your knuckles. The cut hem should end somewhere along your arm. Make a mark where your thumb is. If you want the gloves to be shorter, make a mark there as well. For most people, the thumb hole will be about 2 inches (5.08 centimeters) down from the original hem. Find where you made the thumb mark. Pinch the fabric in half horizontally, and cut a small, vertical slit. Something around ½ inch (1.27 centimeters) would be ideal.  Don't worry if the thumb hole looks too small. It will stretch. Remember, you can always cut it bigger. If you want shorter gloves, cut ½ inch (1.27 centimeters) above the mark that you made. Slip your arm into the sock and poke your thumb out through the thumb hole. At this point, you can widen the thumb hole. You can also cut it into more of an oval shape. Take the glove off. Fold the cut edge inward by ½ inch (1.27 centimeters). Secure it with pins, then sew it down using a stretch stitch or a zigzag stitch. You can also sew it by hand using a running stitch.  You can use a matching thread color or a contrasting one. This step is not absolutely necessary, but it will give your glove a nicer touch. This is not absolutely necessary, since sock material does not fray that much, but it could give your glove a nicer finish. Fold the raw edge inward by about ¼-inch (0.64-centimeter). Sew it by hand using a running stitch. You can use a matching thread color or a contrasting one. Remember to try the glove on your other hand when making it. This ensures that the designs are mirrored perfectly.

TL;DR in Russian:

The best way a person with HPD can get better is through treatment. However, most people with HPD either don’t seek treatment or they only stay in treatment for a short period of time. You should encourage your loved one to get treatment. If they are already seeking treatment, help encourage them to continue treatment, even when they get bored or want to quit.  "I love you, and your behavior is hurting yourself and me. Would you be willing to get treatment?” “I know you feel that treatment is no longer exciting or that you are better, but this is a major condition that cannot be fixed quickly. Will you please reconsider going back to treatment?” Psychotherapy is the most effective treatment for HPD. This includes talking with a therapist who can use different therapeutic approaches to help your loved one, such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Most people with HPD don’t continue with their therapy after beginning because they lose interest, think they are better, or are too impulsive to follow through with their treatment. Cognitive behavioral therapy can address problematic behaviors, such as impulsive actions, manipulative behaviors, and theatrics. Often, people with HPD also have other disorders, such as depression. Because of their feelings of insecurity, inadequacy, and abandonment, they may feel depressed and need to be treated for this. If this is the case, your loved one can take selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) to treat the depression, which may help their overall mood. SSRIs are common in the treatment of depression, and include medications such as Zoloft, Celexa, and Prozac. Histrionic personality disorder may lead to self-destructive behavior. People with HPD often exhibit suicidal behavior or behavior leading to self-harm. The person may just be threatening these behaviors to gain attention, so you need to make a decision about the seriousness of the threat.  Some people with HPD will harm themselves or try to commit suicide to gain attention. Try to notice when your loved one is...

TL;DR in Russian:

Побуждайте к лечению. Убедите человека пройти курс психотерапии. Устраните первопричины. Обращайте внимание на разрушительное поведение.


The best way to avoid a collapsed vein is to eliminate the behavior that causes them.  It can be hard to quit using drugs, especially if you’ve been using for a while.  Fortunately, there are resources available to help you quit.  Start by taking the first step and asking for help. If you have decided not to quit, there are steps you can take to make intravenous drug use less dangerous. Foremost, find a needle exchange program in your area and use it. Used needles with blunted ends are one of the most common causes of collapsed veins. Collapsed veins are often the result of repeated vein trauma in the same area.  Avoid regularly injecting in the same site. Never inject into a site that is visibly swollen or bruised. Veins in your hands are small, and will collapse easily.  Similarly, injecting into veins in your groin can cause especially dangerous circulation problems. Dirt and other debris can enter your vein and cause irritation that may lead to collapse. Accordingly, wipe down the area you will inject as well as the needle before use. There are many aspects of non-medical intravenous injections that can be dangerous.  For instance, a tourniquet should never be tied too tightly, and a needle must be removed slowly after injecting.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь за помощью, чтобы прекратить внутривенный прием наркотиков. Поменяйте иглы. Не делайте уколы постоянно в одно и то же место. Не делайте уколы в руку или пах. Очистите область и иглу перед уколом. Делайте укол медленно и аккуратно.


The best way to avoid a scar is to prevent infection.  Proper care in the first two weeks of the wound is the best approach to reduce scarring. It can be very tempting to pick at scabs as they heal.  They are often itchy and unsightly.  However, it is much better to cover them with ointment and keep them moist.  Picking at scabs will make scarring much worse. Direct sunlight on a sensitive healing area can cause the area to darken and may make scarring worse.  If the wound is completely closed, you can apply sunscreen to the area.  Before it has completely closed, you may need to avoid sunlight in other ways, like wearing a hat, covering the area, or staying inside. Silicone gel sheets are thin, clear sheets that you apply directly over the cut.  These will help keep the wound moist and clean, and encourage quick and healthy healing.  You can find them at most medical supply stores.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не забывайте промывать и перевязывать рану. Не снимайте с раны корку. Постарайтесь не бывать на солнце. Попробуйте использовать пленку из силиконового геля.


The best way to avoid an alcohol odor is to prevent it before it occurs. Limit yourself to 1-2 drinks per day,  or up to 3 for special events. The following amounts are equal to “1 drink”:  12 fluid ounces (350 ml) of beer 5 fluid ounces (150 ml) of wine 1.5 fluid ounces (44 ml) of distilled spirits (80 proof) For every beer, glass of wine, or cocktail you consume, drink 1 glass of water. This will prevent you from overdoing it, and help your body to better process the alcohol. This can help prevent any alcohol smell. Anytime you wear an article of clothing out to a party or bar, be sure to clean it afterward. This is especially true for outerwear (like jackets, coats, and hats) and dress clothing (like suit jackets). Having these items cleaned will reduce your chances of carrying around a lingering alcohol odor.  Anytime you bring these items into a drinking situation, there is a chance of them being spilled on. If you don’t have these items cleaned, you may not even notice a spill until you wear the garment again.

TL;DR in Russian:

Пейте в меру. Чередуйте воду и алкогольные напитки. Почистите свою одежду, включая верхнюю.


The best way to avoid being embarrassed on the dance floor is to appear confident, even if you are not. Hold your head up and keep your back straight. This will give you a look of confidence. Make sure to always smile and enjoy yourself on the dance floor. This will make you appear confident in your dancing abilities. Avoid looking at the ground and hunching forward. This makes you seem shy and uncomfortable. A drink or two can help to loosen you up and give you enough confidence to hit the dance floor. However, if you get too drunk, you may actually end up embarrassing yourself. When you are drunk your inhibitions are lowered and you are more likely to test out some new flashy dance moves. You will also have less control over your body and could bump into other people or fall on the ground. You may be nervous to dance because you’re worried that other people will judge your dance moves. You don’t need to be music-video ready to hit a dance floor at a bar or other social event. Just try to blend in with the crowd. Most people are too concerned about how they look while dancing to even notice your dancing style. If you are worried about embarrassing yourself while dancing, then you should stick to basic moves. Don’t try and pull off a wild move that you saw on your favourite dance competition show. Leave that to the professionals and stick to moves you know will look good. For example, avoid breakdancing, krumping, or any style of dance that may draw attention. Similarly, avoid flashy moves like the moonwalk. You probably won’t be able to pull it off with as much swagger as Michael Jackson. You are more likely to feel comfortable dancing if you are surrounded by your friends. This way you won’t feel like all eyes are on you. Similarly, if you dance with a partner, you can think about them rather than focus on whether or not people are judging you. If you are dancing in a group, make sure to respect the space of those around you. Avoid flailing your arms or stepping on other people’s toes.

TL;DR in Russian:

Улыбайтесь и получайте удовольствие. Не пейте слишком много. Не беспокойтесь о том, что подумают другие. Избегайте каких-то неловких и слишком быстрых движений. Танцуйте с партнером или в команде с друзьями.


The best way to be more comfortable and better at kissing is to practice first. It seems like obvious advice but it really does help. You can practice on your hand, with another object, or with another person. Keep in mind, you might not want to kiss another person because if you are already attached to girl you want to kiss or kiss her really soon after and she finds out, she might be upset. The girl doesn't want to taste garlic or other icky flavors after the kiss, as this can be a major turn off. Before the date or when you see her, brush your teeth and tongue and use mouth wash! To maintain good breath try drinking water on the date instead of soft drinks. You can also suck on a mint or chew minty gum for a few minutes midway through the date. If you are at a restaurant, bring along your favorite breath freshener. Excuse yourself after dinner and go to the bathroom. Freshen your breath and then, to make sure your breath smells good, hold your hand up to your face, breathe, and smell. This can help set the mood. Tell her that what she is wearing looks pretty; she will appreciate it! If she playfully punches you a lot or teases you in a friendly manner, then she wants you to touch her. Stay in safe territory like quickly grabbing her hand when you want to go show her something; she will appreciate not having to do the whole awkward looking at each other and blushing thing.  If you are brave you could put your arm around her waist when you two are laughing and say something playful like "You're so cute!" Offer to give her a piggyback ride, or tickle her a little if she likes it. Don't do this constantly, and when you do it, do it respectfully. Don't grab her breasts or butt. Flirting will make her more open to kissing you. Think of kissing as reaching the top of a mountain. You have to hike a little to get to the top. Getting good timing will make it a lot easier. A good time for a kiss is at the end of a date, when you're generally saying goodbye, when you're out for a walk, or after you've just finished...

TL;DR in Russian:

Тренируйтесь! Проверьте свежесть своего дыхания. Немного пофлиртуйте! Выберите нужный момент. Спросите!


The best way to become famous is to get known! The internet offers many avenues to be seen and promote artistic works, and in the information-loaded 21st century, it's important to use all the tools at your disposal to build your name and your reputation.  Blog daily about your work, and include illustrations showing your process and a gallery to show (and/or sell) your finished works. Visit all the galleries in your area, and get to know the proprietors. If you're old enough, attend as many openings as possible, not to promote your own work—there will be time enough for that later—but to become a known artist in the community. Create a Facebook for your art, and encourage people to visit and like your page. Reach out to other artists through Facebook. Like visiting galleries, this will help place you in the community, and Facebook can reach well beyond your neighborhood. Tweet about art regularly. Your art, historical art, pop art, any art at all. The more you know about art, the more you'll be recognized as somebody worth paying attention to. At the same time, follow artists and galleries, and respond to their tweets. This will encourage more people—including gallery owners—to follow you. Create a Flickr account and post scans or photos of your art. It's an active community, and while you won't get a lot of helpful critique on Flickr, you will build your name recognition, and perhaps become online friends with some very talented artists. Start with student level contests at first and small local art contests.  Teach workshops. This will help you not only get known as an artist, but also as an expert in your field. Build your skills until you can enter major national and international contests in your chosen medium. Enter juried art shows. Getting a painting into a juried art show is itself an achievement to put on your resume. When you have too many, shorten it by listing only the most important shows. Read up on art agencies and contact the agent's other clients. See if they are happy with the agent, or...

TL;DR in Russian:

Публикуйте свои работы. Участвуйте в конкурсах. Найдите надежного агента. Рисуйте на волнующие вас темы. Развивайтесь, как художник.


The best way to begin a project like a portfolio is to find other successful portfolios online and use those as your guide. This doesn't mean copy the format, or follow the portfolio piece by piece, but it means to use it as a reference as you being making yours.  Note how the artist organized his or her pieces. Pay attention to the style and design of the portfolio. Are your eyes drawn more to the design of the portfolio or are you drawn to the art?   If it feels intimidating or daunting to look at other portfolios, remember that only the best work is what is displayed. Art is made up of technical skill as well as creativity, so even if your technical skill isn't as advanced as those you see, your creativity can make up for it. A university and an art gallery may have very different ideas about what they would like to see in your portfolio or the design of your portfolio. It's important that as you begin assembling and organizing your portfolio that you keep the audience in mind.  For example, if submitting your work to an art gallery, visit the gallery and make sure your work will fit in well in the gallery. Choose pieces, design, and organization of your portfolio that show you are familiar with the gallery and are aware of the art they carry.  If applying to a university or job, always look up the requirements for the portfolio, but tailor your portfolio to the type of institution as well. You may be applying to a more prestigious art university that values technique and style, or maybe you are applying to a school that places a higher emphasis and creativity and experimentation. Keep these things in mind as you design and organize your portfolio. Group pieces by style, subject, media, technique, etc. You want to make it as easy as possible for your reviewer to find the important information, or to determine if you are a good fit for their institution. By organizing your pieces you will give your reviewer an easy path to follow. You want your portfolio to tell a story.  Group by medium. It's valuable to...

The best way to check yourself for skin cancer is to do a self-examination, or survey. When performing your skin survey, choose a particular day during the month and note it on the calendar. Evaluate each area of your skin, leaving no part unseen. After you look at all the easily seen areas, use a mirror to evaluate the genitals, the anal area, between the toes, your back, and any other hard to see area. It may be helpful to have an image of a body chart and check off areas as you check them on yourself, as well as make note of any moles or markings you find.   For examining your scalp, enlist the help of a friend, partner, or spouse. Part your hair in small sections looking and feeling for erosions, scales, or discolored lesions. With the advent of tanning booths and full-body tans, you can end up with skin cancer on the vulva and penis. Take your skin survey seriously and leave no surface unexamined. The best way to adequately perform this survey is to know what each different kind of skin cancer looks like. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of skin cancer. It is most often found in the sun-exposed areas of the head, including the ears and neck.  It is erosive in nature, which means the local skin invasion of the cancer eats into the tissue it affects. It metastasizes, or spreads, to other sites on the body. Risk factors for this include sun exposure, tanning bed use, tendency to freckle, fair skin, number of blistering sunburns in your lifetime, and history of smoking. The lesions are flat or slightly raised, pink or flesh-colored, bleed easily, and have a type of hole in them. They have appearance of eroded flesh and can look like a sore or lesion which oozes, crusts, and doesn't heal. The lesions typically range in size from 1 to 2 cm. Early detection is especially important with melanoma. It is the most deadly of all skin cancers. Melanoma can be cured if it is caught early during stage one. As the cancer advances to late stage cancer, the survival rate for more than a few years is less than...

The best way to clean donkeys is to brush them every day. They don't like to get wet, so it's not necessary to spray them down or give them baths. A daily brushing, as well as cleaning the muck from their hooves, will suffice. Donkeys' hooves grow, just like people's nails, and they need to be trimmed from time to time so they don't get too long and crack. Have a professional farrier trim the donkey's hooves to the appropriate angle, which is 60 to 65 degrees. The donkey's hooves should be trimmed every 8 weeks or so. Donkeys' teeth also grow continuously, and they get worn down when the donkey chews food. Your donkey should be seen by an equine dentist every year regardless of how the teeth appear to you. Your donkeys teeth go back as far as the length of your forearm, so there is no way to know what is going on at the back of the mouth without specialist tools. The dentist will need to check right to the back of the mouth to make sure your donkey has functioning teeth that aren't causing difficulty eating and constant pain. A donkey with poor teeth may be happier on a diet of chaff or mash/wet feed – this will obviate the need for the donkey to chew too much on grass or hay. Consult with your vet as to the best options. Donkeys are hardy and almost disease-free. They do need to be vaccinated yearly against tetanus, flu and distemper. Other vaccinations to consider, depending on where you reside, include rabies, encephalitis, and West Nile Virus. Both horses and donkeys are beginning to suffer due to overzealous use of wormers in the past, as now the worms aren't responding as they used to and the drugs are becoming more and more inefficient. There is no easy answer to this, but the way forward is definitely not continuing on with the same pattern of untargeted worming that has caused the situation to arise. Donkeys and horses should be have their feces tested  four times a year to see what (if any) worms they have and then appropriate treatment can be given. Ask your vet to give you guidance on this, and...

Регулярно чистите осла щеткой. Держите копыта сухими и расчищенными. Проверяйте зубы на наличие острых граней. Своевременно делайте прививки. У ослов, как и у лошадей, могут появляться глисты. Забота о содержании пастбища в максимально возможной чистоте от навоза также поможет разорвать жизненный цикл глистов, так как им необходимо прожить определенное количество времени вне животного носителя до его заражения.


The best way to clear up your hormonal acne and minimize scarring is to see a dermatologist for help. A dermatologist can prescribe medicine and perform treatments that will help to clear up your acne. You should see a dermatologist if your acne is moderate to severe or if your acne does not clear up after trying home remedies. If your hormonal acne is mild to moderate, then you may only need to use a topical retinoid treatment.  These creams and gels help to remove oil and dirt from pores and prevent future breakouts. Doctors sometimes prescribe an antibiotic along with the retinoid cream or gel to deal with the bacteria that is associated with acne.The dermatologist may also prescribe a product called Dapsone gel or recommend benzoyl peroxide creams, gels, or washes. Oral contraceptives can be an effective way to treat hormonal acne, but this option will usually take about three to six months to produce results. Some oral contraceptives are FDA approved for the treatment of hormonal acne and may work better than others. There are some potential side effects involved in taking oral contraceptives as well. Side effects and potential risks include:  Dizziness Headaches Weight changes Stomach upset Bloating Nausea Depression Chest pain Increased risk of heart disease (especially in women who smoke) Shortness of breath Lumps in the breast Liver problems Increased risk of certain cancers Deep vein thrombosis Strokes Women who do not want to take oral contraceptives may be able to take spironolactone instead. This drug alters the hormones, but it does not have as many side effects as oral contraceptives. Spironolactone works by regulating the hormones that produce oil, so it can be quite effective as an acne treatment. Keep in mind that spironolactone is also a diuretic, so it may cause frequent urination. It may also lower your blood pressure. Isotretinoin is a good choice if your acne does not respond to other types of treatment. It can clear up severe breakouts in just a few months. This drug can cause some...

Подумайте о лазерной или световой терапии. Посетите дерматолога, если состояние вашей кожи не улучшается.


The best way to cook chickens, turkeys, and other game hens is to roast them whole. This requires the least amount of preparation and the most bang for your buck. It's the best way to roast juicy and flavorful chicken in the oven. You can typically buy 3 or 5 pound roasting chickens at the supermarket, which make for perfect dinners. You don't have to break them down any before roasting. . Poultry can be seasoned simply and roasted in the oven with a minimum amount of fuss, but taking some time to marinade can really up the ante and make your bird delicious. Dressing up a simple marinade for a couple hours before you put the chicken in the oven, or overnight for more flavor, is a great way to improve the flavor of the meat and make it delicious.  Before you marinate, take a small kitchen knife and make little straight cuts into the breast, the legs, and the rest of the chicken, on all sides. Use the point and stab straight in until you get to the bone. This will help to get the marinade into the meat, not just the skin. The simple French method of roasting a chicken is to take two whole lemons, a whole bulb of garlic, and some fresh thyme, salt, and pepper. Juice the lemons into a bowl, and cut the head of garlic in half. Season with the herbs (sage, rosemary, or other savory green herbs would also be fine), and place the chicken breast-down in the juices for several hours. Refrigerate. Before roasting the chicken, stuff the cavity with the lemons, the garlic, and the herbs.  Brining poultry involves soaking the meat in a mixture of warm water, sugar, and salt overnight to imbue the meat with juices and flavor. Drain brined chicken or turkey thoroughly before roasting. Even if you've marinated your poultry, it's a good idea to season it liberally with salt and pepper, both inside the cavity and out. This helps to season the meat from all angles and give the meat the most flavor while it cooks. The saltiness will transfer throughout the meat as it releases its juices. Before you put poultry in the oven, tie...

The best way to crush rocks at home without professional equipment is with a mortar and pestle. You want to be sure it is made of material that will be harder than the quartz and gold you're crushing, such as steel or cast-iron. The crushing and panning method will destroy your piece of quartz. Make sure you're okay with destroying your quartz before starting crushing and panning. Place your piece of quartz in the mortar, or bowl of your mortar and pestle set. Press hard on it with the pestle until pieces start to break off. Crush these smaller pieces up until you have a dust of quartz and gold mixed together. If you end up breaking off larger pieces that are only quartz, you can separate these out and focus only on the areas that have gold-colored particles. Commercially produced gold pans can be found for about $10 or less online. Take your crushed powders and mix them with water in a large tub. Then dip your gold pan into the water, trying to get as much powder into it as you can. Use a circular motion to swirl the water around in your gold pan. Real gold, because it is heaviest, will settle down to the bottom of the pan. Other lighter particles of quartz will rise to the top.  Empty the water with lighter quartz powders into a different container by tipping the gold pan slightly and set this aside to dispose of later. You may have to repeat this step multiple times to get the gold to settle at the bottom. Have patience! If the gold-colored dust never settles to the bottom, and instead rises to the top of the gold pan with the other quartz powder, unfortunately it was not real gold to begin with. After spending time sifting the powders, you may begin to see gold particles and flakes at the bottom of your pan. Remove these pieces with tweezers and place them in a glass vial to take them to an assayer to determine how much they are worth. If you have other pieces of black sand in the bottom of your pan mixed with your gold dust, use a strong magnet to separate those out from the gold before putting the gold...

The best way to deal with a bully is to avoid them as much as possible. If they don’t have an opportunity to tease you, you won’t have to deal with their insults. Develop a route that keeps you away from known bullies, such as sitting at a different lunch table or choosing a different seat in homeroom.  If you have to sit next to a bully in class due to assigned seating, ask the teacher if you can switch seats. Explain that this person is keeping you from paying attention. If the bullies are in your group of friends, then it may be time to find a different group to hang out with, especially if you friends don't stand up for you. When someone teases you about being flat-chested, do your best to ignore them. Bullies are looking for a reaction, and if you give them one they are likely to continue making fun of you. Stay cool, calm, and collected. Simply ignore the insult or walk away. This also includes interactions online and social media. If you want to, you can even delete their comments or block their usernames. If you’ve tried to ignore the teasing and it hasn’t stopped, you should stand up for yourself. Tell the bully, “Stop saying that to me, it’s mean!” or “Don’t talk to me anymore.” Walk away after you’ve said your piece and be proud of yourself for being brave enough to speak your mind. Sometimes, bullies will stop picking on you if you stand up for yourself. Try to remain calm and collected when confronting the bullies. If you appear too upset, they may continue teasing you just to get another, similar reaction. Don’t stoop to a bully’s level and trade insults with them. Instead, show your maturity by refusing to taunt them back. You could even say something like, “I’m sorry you feel that way, but I know that looks aren’t everything. I have lots of other skills and talents that make me happy with who I am.” If the bullying still continues, tell a teacher, principal, or guidance counselor right away. They may be able to interfere and stop the bullying.

TL;DR in Russian:

Если есть такая возможность, просто избегайте их. Не обращайте внимания на поддразнивания и насмешки. Умейте за себя постоять. Будьте выше этого.


The best way to deal with keloids is to avoid getting them in the first place.  People who already have keloids, or who are very prone to getting them, can take special precautions with skin injuries to prevent keloid scares from forming. Pay attention to even minor skin injuries, and make sure that any wounds are thoroughly cleaned.  Apply an antibiotic cream and bandage to any open wounds, and change the bandage frequently.  Wear loose clothing over the injury site that will not irritate the skin further. The silicon gel sheets mentioned above work well to prevent keloids from forming. Piercings and even tattoos can lead to keloids in some individuals.  If you have developed keloids in the past, or have a family history of keloids in your family, you may want to avoid piercings and tattoos, or consult with a dermatologist before proceeding.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратите внимание на необходимость профилактических  мер. Правильно ухаживайте за кожей, чтобы предотвратить развитие инфекции и формирование рубцов. Защитите себя от травм, если вы склонны к формированию келоидных рубцов.


The best way to defrost crab is to let it sit, covered, inside the refrigerator overnight. Crab legs can also be thawed by running them under cold water for a few minutes. Even if you do not need to run the crab legs under cold water to thaw them, doing so could also help remove any remaining ice crystals or slime. Pat dry with clean paper towels before using. Arrange the crab legs in even layers inside the slow cooker and add enough water to just barely cover them.  You will need to create multiple layers of crab legs, but these layers should at least be even. Due to the shape of the crab legs, an oval slow cooker usually works better than a round one. You only need enough water to cover the crabs. Too little or too much could be result in crab legs that are too dry or not sufficiently heated. Melt the butter in a small bowl and stir in the garlic powder and dill.  If you prefer a stronger garlic taste, you can use 4 cloves of minced garlic instead of concentrated garlic powder. Since the crab legs are being cooked slowly, the flavors of the seasonings have a greater opportunity to permeate the thick shell of the legs and flavor the meat beneath. Pour the melted butter mixture over the crab legs in the slow cooker. Try to spread the butter over as many of the crab legs as possible. You can toss them to coat the crab more thoroughly, but this is not necessary. Cover the slow cooker and cook the crab legs until they are steaming hot and nearly melting inside their shells. It you did not have time to thaw your crab legs and are cooking them straight from a frozen state, add another 30 minutes to the cooking time. Use tongs to remove the crab legs from the slow cooker. Transfer them to a serving platter and enjoy while hot. If desired, you can serve the crab legs with additional melted butter or lemon wedges.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разморозьте и промойте краба. Положите ножки краба в мультиварку. Смешайте масло, укроп и чеснок. Добавьте к крабовым ножкам ароматное сливочное масло. Готовьте 4 часа при высокой температуре. Подавайте к столу теплыми.


The best way to do this is by turning off the electricity supplied to the circuit on which you will be working at the junction box (also called a fuse box) for your home. Switch the breaker of your fuse-box so the fuse for the circuit supplying electricity to your fixture reads "Off." It's always a good idea to double-check the flow of electricity by checking the light itself before moving forward with this project. Flick the light on, and if the circuit has been disabled, the light should stay off. If the light you are wiring is in the ceiling, you should clean any cobwebs and dust before attempting to install your new fixture. The same is true for lights or switches in walls; a clean work area will improve your ease of installation. If you are using a ladder to reach your light fixture, or are in a less than ideal position, be sure the ground is also clear of debris or anything else that might affect your balance or safety. There is usually, but not always, a decorative globe, shield, or some kind of external feature covering your existing light fixture. This could also be something more involved, like ceiling fan blades. There will be a mounting bracket holding your old fixture in place. You will need to unscrew this from mounting bracket, usually with Phillips-head screwdriver, and then pull it from the bracket. Be sure you support the old fixture with your hand as you unscrew it from the mount. If you do not support the fixture, it could fall to the floor once you loosen the screws holding it in. Allow the unscrewed fixture you are supporting with your hand to descend a few inches below its mount. You will likely see three wires attached to your fixture: a hot wire, grounding wire, and neutral wire. You will need to use your free hand to uncouple these wires, twisting the wiring cap to free the wires from each other.  Hot wires are those that run electricity to your fixtures and grounding wires are intended to offer surge electricity a neutral point, like the earth, into which it can dissipate.  In some...

The best way to do this is with white face paint, however very light pressed powder will work as well. Nina's face is ghostly white in the film, so whitening the face is extremely important. To apply the face paint, use a sponge or a large foundation brush. Make sure to cover your entire face, taking care to make it even around your hairline. Don't forget to do your eyelids, your ears, and your neck. As you bring the white face paint down your neck, begin applying it more lightly so that it gradually fades into your natural skin color. This will look much less harsh than an abrupt border between the white paint and your skin. You should use the lightest foundation you can find. Use a large fluffy brush so that you don't brush off patches of the face paint. The foundation will set the face paint and even out any streaks or splotches. When you've finished with the foundation, grab a white eye shadow and do the same thing. The white shadow will make the white color extremely intense, opaque, and matte. Using a powder over the face paint will help to ensure your eye makeup will not rub off easily. It creates a nice base for the rest of your makeup. A taupe-colored bronzer works best. This will enhance your cheek bones. Nina's face in the film is very gaunt, which makes her makeup all the more striking. By brushing your cheekbones with a bronzer they will pop, especially against your stark white face. Blend the bronzer from the apples of your cheeks diagonally to your temples.

TL;DR in Russian:

Раскрасьте лицо в белый цвет. Нанесите основу на белую краску или пудру. Покройте щеки бронзером.


The best way to ensure that you sound genuine is to compliment someone when the positive thought comes to you. Basically: speak your mind! If you want to say something nice to someone, just do it instead of planning it out. When you're complimenting someone, it's best to focus on complimenting things that are under their control (such as their personality, their accomplishments, etc.). This will help them to feel secure in that positive feedback, rather than creating worry that they might lose the thing that other people find valuable.  For example: "I love how you interact with little kids. You're so patient!" or "You did a great job on that poster! I just can't stop looking at it!" You want to actually compliment them, not some inanimate object. For example,"You look fabulous in that sweater!" is better than, "I like how that sweater looks on you." If you're trying to come up with something to compliment someone on, try to look at the things that you know they value. Look back on your interactions with them and think about things they talked about, or just pay more attention to this in the future. For example, if you notice your girlfriend looking sadly at another girl's clothes and saying that she wished she could dress like that, tell her how much you love how she dresses and that you didn't even notice the other girl. Another indicator you can look at is what someone struggles with. If they're trying to lose weight, praise their hard work and determination (but not the loss of weight itself). If they put a ton of effort into a report, praise them for the quality.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не раздумывайте над комплиментом. Сосредоточьтесь на качествах, которые можно проконтролировать. В центр комплимента нужно ставить личность. Сосредоточьтесь на ценностях человека. Проанализируйте жизненную борьбу человека.


The best way to ensure you won’t look at internet porn is to eliminate the source—the internet. Put away your smartphone, tablet, and computer, or give them to a friend or family member for safekeeping. Spend a few days away from the internet and allow your mind and body to detox.  Try doing this with a friend. Spend a full day with a friend in which both of you leave your devices at home and do not use them at all. Having someone else’s support might make the process easier.  If you are giving up your smartphone, temporarily switch to a disposable cell phone in the meantime. You can buy them just about anywhere, including most gas stations. Give this number to the people you talk to regularly so they can still contact you. Make sure you pick a disposable phone that does not have internet access. If you are privately insured, look for a provider in your network. Some other therapists in your area may offer their services on a sliding scale. Do some research on your chosen therapist and see if one of their specializations is addiction. There are online resources for overcoming pornography addiction. You can download e-books, or even seek e-counseling over the internet. The downside with this option is that you will need to access the internet to access these services and products. Find something new to do that you enjoy, particularly something that will get you out of the house, or at least out of the area in which you normally access internet pornography. Whenever you get the urge to access these materials, choose instead to do something new.  If you find this challenging, consider how much time you spend watching or viewing internet porn, and consider what you could get done with that amount of time if you spent it doing something productive and engaging. Many former internet pornography addicts say that finding new activities to engage their minds with has allowed them to improve their quality of life, and feel like more productive and useful people. If you traditionally use internet pornography to become...

TL;DR in Russian:

The best way to figure out if she needs space or not is to simply ask her. Frame your question in a way that makes it seem like it’s okay if she needs some space by saying that you understand why she would want to be away from you. There’s nothing wrong with offering to give her some space, and she’ll decline your offer if she authentically wants to move on.  Say, “Do you need a couple of days away from me? If you do, it’s perfectly alright. We can revisit this topic when you’re feeling a little better.” A lot of people just need some time to cool down and relax. It doesn’t mean that she doesn’t want to be your friend or girlfriend anymore. If you upset her in the middle of an important conversation or intimate date, ask her if the two of you can try it again. This will show her that you’re making an honest attempt to repair the rift between the two of you while demonstrating that you’re willing to change. Say something like, “So I know I kind of screwed it up last time, but I’m ready to give it another shot if you are. Can we try that dinner date again?” or, “I don’t know why I got so jealous the first time, but I do want to hear about your vacation. I promise to not act like a fool this time.” Chocolates, flowers, and other small gifts can be an excellent way of showing her that you're ready to put in the effort to make it up to her. If you’re older or dating, a nice meal at her favorite restaurant can be a great way to sit down and work through any grievances in a positive setting.  If you don’t have any money, a handmade gift can be an excellent way to show her that you care about her. Present the gift as a sort of additional apology. Say, “I got you this. I felt really bad about what I did and when I saw this I thought of you.” If you spent a few days apart from one another, there may be some awkward vibes between the two of you—even if you got her a gift or apologized. Be straightforward and ask her how she’s feeling to see if she has any residual or negative feelings. Ask if she forgives you, and if...

TL;DR in Russian:

The best way to find skin cancer early is to keep a check on any skin abnormalities through a monthly full body skin exam. Stand in front of a full length mirror. Examine the whole front of your body, checking each part of your body. Turn around and look over your shoulder, examining the back area of your body, paying special attention to the back of your legs. Next, raise your arms and examine your underarms, inner arm area, elbow, forearms, upper underarms, and palms.   Make sure you also look at the tops and bottoms of your feet. Using a hand mirror, check your buttocks, genitals, neck, and scalp. If there are areas you can’t reach, ask a loved one to help. As you examine your body, track your moles on a mole map. This map needs to be a representation of your body, with a front and a back, so you can keep track of where all your moles are. Each month, pinpoint where your moles are and write down the general appearance of them. The American Academy of Dermatology has a premade map that you can download every month as you do your examination. While making your examination, you need to watch for problem moles. You should notice is your moles change shape, size, or color, start to ooze or bleed, and feel itchy, swollen, or tender, or if the mole returns after it has been removed. To keep track of problem moles, you need to follow the ABCDE rule. The rules to notice melanomas are:  A: Asymmetry, when moles have different halves and one side looks different than the other. B: Borders, which tend to be ragged, irregular, or scalloped, and it may also have visible blood vessels around it. C: Color, which can be different shades of brown, tan, red, or black, with rare ones turning white. D:  Diameter, which tend to be larger than 6 mm. E: Evolving, which means they change size, shape, and color over time, or have a shrunken center. In order to note the progress of your moles, you need to make sure you perform this examine once a month. This will ensure that you know how your moles are doing and you will be able to...

The best way to get out of the "friend trap" is to avoid it from the start and to show romantic interest right away. After making sure she’s compatible and might have interest in you, show your own interest.  Tell her you’d like to get to know her better. Compliment her looks and/or intelligence. Ask for her phone number and/or give her yours. Showing non-verbal signs of your interest is one way of moving your relationship along and figuring out if she’ll be receptive to an invitation to go out. Don’t draw this process out, though. You should know very quickly if she’s interested in you. Consider:  Looking into a girl's eyes (at the right moment) and smiling. This shows respect and interest, and she might reciprocate. If your glances and smile has been welcomed, a gentle pat on the back, a light touch of the hand, and other subtle gestures might demonstrate your interest and provoke her to reciprocate. If your advances are rejected or ignored, you should stop them. What you see as persistence can be misunderstood as sexual harassment or stalking. Talking to her is the best way of connecting. Find out what you have in common, and reward her with a smile and a story of your own if she tells you something unique about herself to which you can relate. Don't pretend to be someone you aren't. You may think you will win her over with like-mindedness, but in the end she will find you out.  Try to listen to her. Don’t brag or boast about yourself. Avoid inappropriate sexual comments, insulting others, or making yourself look good at the expense of others. The best way to overcome shyness and to get a girlfriend is to simply ask the girl out on a date. Anything else will undermine your goal of her becoming your girlfriend. Consider the following:  Tell her you’d like to take her out for coffee or dinner so you can get to know her better. Make sure your first date is somewhere you can talk and get to know each other. Consider getting a cup of coffee or having a picnic in the park. Make sure to ask her out as soon as you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Покажите девушке свою симпатию, скажите ей об этом. Постарайтесь показать ей свой интерес с помощью невербальных знаков. Поговорите с ней. Пригласите ее на свидание. Позвоните ей на следующий день после свидания. На втором свидании постарайтесь узнать друг друга получше. Общайтесь, когда вы не вместе. Продолжайте поддерживать общение на уровне, пока вы встречаетесь.


The best way to gradually and safely lower your resting heart rate is to introduce regular aerobic exercise into your routine. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends healthy adults get 150 minutes of moderate intensity aerobic activity (brisk walking) per week and muscle strengthening activity 2 days or more per week. Muscle strengthening activities should work all major muscle groups (legs, hips, back, abdomen, chest, shoulders, and arms).  For a healthier heart, aim for 40 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise three or four times a week. Include stretching and flexibility exercises such as yoga. Try to combine this with muscle strengthening exercises twice a week. To really target your resting heart rate, you can tailor your exercise routine so that you aim for a target heart rate when you are exercising. This way you can track the intensity of the exercise and how hard your heart is working, gradually increasing it as you become fitter. To do this you need to determine your maximum heart rate. All of the safe methods for this are approximations, but they can give you a general picture.  One basic method is just subtract your age from 220.  So if you are 30, your maximum heart rate will be approximately 190 beats per minute. This method is considered more accurate for those under 40. A slightly more complicated recent method is to multiply your age by 0.7, and then subtract that figure from 208. With this technique a 40-year-old has a maximum heart rate of 180 (208 - 0.7 x 40). Once you know an approximate value for your maximum heart rate you can determine the target heart rate zones for your exercise. By exercising within your target heart rate zone you can keep better track of how hard your heart is working and organise your exercise regime more precisely.  As a general rule heart rate during moderate activities is about 50-69% of your maximum heart rate. When you are first starting to work out, you should aim to keep your heart rate in this, the lower range of your target zone.  Hard and...

TL;DR in Russian:

Регулярно занимайтесь спортом. Определите максимальную ЧСС. Определите целевое значение ЧСС. Подсчитывайте ЧСС во время тренировок.


The best way to have a fulfilling life is to spend your time doing things that you genuinely care about. Consider whether you are interested in art, science, politics, or the environment. Think about what you want your life's legacy to be. How do you want to impact the world around you? These questions will help you find the right career path for you.  Learn to distinguish between your hobbies and your bigger interests. Just because you like to play guitar, doesn't necessarily mean you should pursue music as a career. But if you eat, sleep and breathe guitar, then continue to practice and perfect your craft and pursue your dream. Don't give up on your hobbies. Just because your passion isn't lucrative, doesn't mean you can't or shouldn't partake in it. In fact, the opposite is true. Life is about learning to balance work and fun, and giving up either will be detrimental to your emotional health. Remember that if you have never worked at anything, you won't be able to appreciate the free time you have to partake in hobbies or spend time with friends. If you want to reach your full potential, you will have to devote time to strengthening the talents you already have, and uncovering any hidden talents that you haven't discovered yet.  Take classes or private lessons in subjects that you are interested in, even if you have no previous experience. You never know when that one elective will open the door to an entirely new career that you had never considered. Don't be discouraged if you realize that you are not skilled at something. Remember that even recognizing what you are not good at is still a step in the right direction, pointing you toward what you are good at. Once you have set your mind to doing something, follow through with it. Be prepared for obstacles, and don't expect immediate results. All good things take time and hard work, but it will be well worth it in the end when you achieve your goals. Remember that at the end of your life, you are much more likely to regret the things you didn't do than the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите свои интересы. Изучайте и развивайте свои таланты. Следуйте целям преданно и ответственно. Умейте постоять за себя.


The best way to have a good relationship is to be honest. Ask her openly how she feels, and be willing to work through any problems if you want to stay together. Give her your full attention, and participate in the conversation.  Rephrase what she says and repeat it back to show you understand "Just to be sure I understand, you're saying...." Allow her to speak without interrupting or arguing. Ask questions to clarify and elaborate on what she is saying. Through honest communication you can discover the root of a problem if one exists. Once she's shared her feelings you'll be able to determine how to move forward in your relationship.  There may be nothing wrong and you're overthinking things. If she is ready for things to end, bringing up the problems may make it easier to handle. If she's upset and you want things to work, you'll know what you need to change to keep her happy. If she is always sad, she may not want to be with you any more. Be sure to ask her though as she might have something else in her lif that is going on.

TL;DR in Russian:

Спросите у девушки, что она думает о ваших отношениях. Активно слушайте, когда она выражает свои чувства. Будьте готовы меняться.


The best way to heat treat a blade is using a forge. For smaller blades, a torch can work as a substitute. For a forge, either a coal or gas forge will work. Prepare your hardening bath. To cool the knife, you will need to douse it in a hardening bath. What you use depends on the type of steel, but for 01 you can use a bucket of motor oil. You need to be able to completely submerge the blade in the bucket. Keep it heating until the metal is orange. Tap it against a magnet to see if it is hot enough. When the steel reaches the correct temperature, it loses its magnetic properties. Once it does not stick, let it cool by air. Repeat this process 3 times.  On the 4th time, instead of letting it air cool, douse it in the oil bath. Be aware that there will be fire when the blade is put into the oil, so be sure that you are properly protected. When the blade is hardened, it can break when dropped, so handle carefully. Set your oven for 425°. Put the blade on the middle rack and cook it for 1 hour. Once that hour is up, heat treatment is complete. Use increasingly finer grits of paper, going past 220 and up to around 400 grit. Polish the blade if you want some extra shine.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте кузницу. Разогрейте лезвие. Разогрейте вашу печку. Снова отполируйте лезвие.


The best way to inspire your staff to work harder or push through a rough period is to lead by example. Take on more work than you have to and help them with their own work when you can. An active manager who works right alongside them is more inspiring than one who just sits behind a desk. Make sure that their needs are met. Show them that you care about their personal well-being. When they do something that's worthy of recognizing, recognize it. Promote them when they deserve it. All of this makes them want to do more for you because they know that you're going to fight for them. Get them invested in the work that they do. Make them proud of the product they make or the service they offer. If they take pride in what they do, they'll be much more likely to work hard and strive for perfection. When you promise them something or give them an incentive, you have to make good on that promise. Failing to meet expectations will only make them wary of your future promises and they'll be unlikely to take incentives seriously any more.

TL;DR in Russian:

Вдохновляйте собственным примером. Заботьтесь о них. Заставьте их гордиться. Держите свои обещания.


The best way to learn faster is to make sure that you're really paying attention when things are explained to you the first time. Even the smallest break in your focus can cause the information not to settle properly in your brain. Unfortunately, there are few tricks for this: you'll mostly need to learn how to maintain willpower. Try listening with the idea that you will have to answer a question immediately about the material, such as your teacher calling on you, or so that you can repeat the information back to yourself. In fact, if you're on your own, repeating the information back to yourself (paraphrased and in your own words) can help to anchor the information in your brain. . Taking notes is another great way to maintain your focus as you learn the material the first time. Taking notes not only forces you to think about the material you're learning, it also give you a framework to study from later. Taking notes doesn't mean writing down everything that is said. All you have to do is write down the broad outline, with specific information when you know it's important. Write down major facts and any explanations that you either have a hard time understanding or you know you won't remember because they are very complicated. Stay active in your learning experience. This will not only help you stay focused, it will also help your brain absorb the information better because it becomes a multi-sensory experience, rather than you just listening to someone talk. There are lots of ways to participate in your learning experience, from getting active in group work to asking questions during the lecture.  Try to answer questions when the teacher asks. Don’t worry about being wrong: this is a learning experience and being wrong sometimes is a part of the process. When you’re split up into groups in order to do activities, reading, or discussion, really embrace the experience and participate. Don’t just sit quietly and do as little as possible. Engage your fellow students and ask them questions, give your opinions,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте внимательны при первом знакомстве с информацией.  Делайте записи Участвуйте в занятии. Создайте рабочую атмосферу. Определите свой стиль обучения. Выбирайте метод обучения согласно типу материала. Пониженная обучаемость.


The best way to learn what will impress your husband is to ask him. You should do this before you have sex. You might say, “Is there anything new you want to try?” You can even suggest new positions and see if he wants to try them. Your husband may not necessarily want to try something new. Instead, he might want to have sex more often or to spend more time together. Consider what your husband has to say and see if you can both work out a solution. Have your husband underline passages in a book, write down his fantasies, or suggest videos of things that he might like to try. Encourage your husband to share these with you by telling him you're open to new ideas in the bedroom. You might say, "I know it makes you uncomfortable to talk about, but if there's anything you ever want to try, you can tell me or leave me a note on my dresser." Good sex includes mutual satisfaction. If your husband needs to improve on some aspects, try to avoid nagging or criticizing him. Instead, gently redirect him by telling him what you do like.  For example, you might say, “I love it when you bite my neck.” If your husband ever tries something that makes you uncomfortable, you have the right to say no. Just say, “I don't want to do that,” “I'm not in the mood for that.” If something hurts physically, say, “That hurts a little.”

TL;DR in Russian:

Поговорите с мужем. Попросите его написать о своих предпочтениях, если он не хочет говорить об этом. Расскажите мужу, что доставляет удовольствие вам.


The best way to learn without getting a formal education is to read a lot. Read as much as you can at every opportunity. This, in and of itself, can make you a scholar (since a scholar is really just someone who is learning all the time). You can read books that you buy, but don't forget that you can also go to your local library and get loads of books for free! The internet has made lots of library systems much easier to use, letting you find, order, and renew books right from your home. There are also loads of books in the public domain, which you can get free digital copies of to keep. Project Gutenberg is the most famous, but you can also get many through Amazon's Kindle program. Did you know that you can take classes without trying to get a degree? If you're interested in learning a particular skill or about a particular subject, you can take classes in just that, without the cost of an entire degree. Some classes may even be free. Talk to your local community college about auditing classes (this means taking the class but not doing any of the homework or tests and not getting credit or a grade). You can also talk directly to the professor and try to work something out between the two of you. Many new online schools with free classes are springing up all over the web. You can take classes from top universities, and some are even working towards offering certificates of completion. You can learn all sorts of skills and topics, from history to computer programming. Popular options include Coursera, CreativeLive, OpenCulture, or even Mental Floss' Youtube Series (featuring John Green!). You can also learn languages online for free. Good sites include LiveMocha, Duolingo, and the Foreign Service Institute's online resources You can teach yourself new skills and information as well. Humans learn by doing, so get out there and do! You can teach yourself from books or other materials, or you can learn by really just doing things. Just make sure not to hurt yourself! This can often take a lot of determination...

The best way to make a substitute nest for the baby bird is to get a covered cardboard box, such as a shoebox, which you’ll need to punch a number of holes in the bottom of. Place a small plastic or wooden bowl into the box and line it with undyed paper towel. This will make a nice, snuggly nest for the baby bird.  Never line the nest with stringy or shredded bedding as these can wrap around the baby’s wings and throat. You should also avoid using grass, leaves, moss or twigs as these can be damp and easily become mouldy. You should change the chicks bedding whenever it becomes damp or soiled. If the chicks feel damp or chilled you will need to warm them up as soon as you place them in the box. You can do this in a number of ways. If you have a heating pad, you can set it to a low heat and place the box on top. Alternatively, you can fill a ziplock bag with warm water and place it in the box or hang a 40 watt bulb above the box.  It is very important to maintain the bird’s nest at a regular temperature, so it is probably best to keep a thermometer in the box. If the baby is less than a week old (eyes closed, no feathers) the temperature should be around 95 °F (35 °C). This can be reduced by 5 degrees with every passing week. It is also important that you keep the box in an area away from direct sunlight and drafts. This is because newly hatched baby birds are very susceptible to chilling and overheating, as they have a large body surface relative to their weight and have not yet developed insulating feathers. Baby birds will not thrive unless they are kept in a calm, low-stress environment. When baby birds are stressed, their heart rate rises significantly, which is harmful to their health. As a result, the box should be kept in a quiet environment, inaccessible to pets and children. You should also avoid exposing the baby bird to the following:  Excessive or improper handling, loud noises, incorrect temperatures, overcrowding (if you have more than one chick), disorganized feeding schedules or incorrect...

TL;DR in Russian:

The best way to make sure you never miss a video call is to enable notifications for Snapchat:  Android - Tap the Ghost button and then tap the Gear button in the upper-right corner. Select the "Notification Settings" menu option. Tap "Allow" if prompted by your device to enable notifications from Snapchat. Ensure "Enable Notifications" and "Ring" are both checked. iOS  - Tap the Ghost button and then tap the Gear button in the upper-right corner. Select the "Notifications" menu option. Toggle the "Ring" slider on. Open the Settings app on your iPhone and select "Notifications." Find Snapchat in the list and make sure Notifications are toggled on. Your video will not be displayed while you are watching. You'll be able to hear the other person and watch their video, but they won't be able to see or hear you. Your video and audio will be displayed to the other person, and you'll be able to see them. The other person will be notified that you're not available for a video call. You'll still be able to see the other person until they hang up or you close the conversation. You can close the conversation by backing out to your recent conversation list, or by switching apps or closing Snapchat.

TL;DR in Russian:

Включите уведомления Snapchat. Нажмите «Смотреть», когда услышите звонок. Нажмите «Присоединиться», чтобы вы и ваш собеседник видели и слышали друг друга. Нажмите «Игнорировать», чтобы сбросить вызов. Нажмите «Видео», чтобы выключить видеочат со своей стороны. Закройте чат, чтобы полностью завершить вызов.


The best way to make your cat comfortable enough to come out of hiding is to give it time to adjust to its new surroundings. Most cats take a couple of weeks to acclimate, but it might take a month or two. During this time, try not to force the cat to come out of its hiding spot.  Avoid chasing or picking up your cat, especially during this initial timeframe. Be patient. If your cat isn’t showing interest when you use these techniques, give it space and try again later. While your new cat is adjusting to its new home, you’ll want to get it used to your presence. If it’s hiding, sit near its hiding spot and talk softly to it. This will help get it used to your scent and sounds. Try sitting with it in intervals of about 20 minutes a few times a day. If it comes out of hiding, hold your hand out with a fingertip extended. Let it approach you and smell you on its own. When it does, gently touch your fingertip to its nose to say hello. Cats greet each other by touching noses, and you can simulate this by using your fingertip. Sit calmly near your kitty’s hiding spot and offer it a treat, like a lean piece of chicken or a store-bought treat. If it comes out to take the treat, reward it with another one. Your cat will be a bit stressed out during its acclimation period. When you speak to it, be sure to speak softly, and avoid making lots of noise around it. Try not to make direct eye contact, as your cat will interpret this as a confrontation. Reducing your new cat’s stress will help it become comfortable enough to come out of hiding.

TL;DR in Russian:

Дайте кошке время привыкнуть к новому дому. Сядьте рядом с ее укрытием и поговорите с ней. Прикоснитесь к ее носу кончиком пальца. Предложите кошке угощение. Избегайте зрительного контакта и не устраивайте громкий шум.


The best way to overcome social anxiety is by confronting it head-on. Talking to strangers is like any other skill: the more you do it, the better you get at it. With enough practice, it will feel completely natural to you. You won't even have to think about how to manage conversations with strangers. The best way to practice is to set weekly goals.   Don't overwhelm yourself! If you find talking to strangers overwhelming, take it slow at the beginning. You might begin by promising yourself that you'll talk to two strangers in a week. Add one person each week. Keep pushing yourself, though! There's a fine line between taking on too much and not taking on enough. While you don't want to overwhelm yourself, you also don't want your fear to hold you back. Get out of your comfort zone. That’s right — don’t invite anyone along. Put yourself in a social situation where you won't know anyone else. Without any friends to hide behind, you'll be more likely to put yourself out there. Keep these outings low-stakes. If you don't talk to anyone the first couple times, that's fine! You still went out and were among strangers, which you never would have done before! Look for events around town where you'll be able to start conversations with strangers:  Art shows Book readings Music concerts Museum exhibitions Outdoor festivals Geek gatherings Parades/rallies/protests If the idea of talking to a stranger on your own is too much, enlist the help of a more outgoing friend. With her help, you can practice talking to strangers while still having a familiar face to make you feel comfortable. Don't let your friend carry the entire conversation, though. Make sure she knows that you want to contribute more than you might normally contribute. If you obsess over all the ways things can go wrong before you start a conversation with a stranger, you're setting yourself up to fail. The more you think about it, the more anxious you'll get. When you see someone you want to talk to, break the ice immediately, before you have a chance to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Практикуйтесь до того, как вы начнете разговаривать с незнакомцами. Посещайте мероприятия сами. Попросите друга помочь вам. Не думайте слишком много. Ведите себя уверенно. Не позволяйте негативной реакции влиять на вас.


The best way to play hard to get is to realize that you are, in fact, hard to get. You are a wonderful, unique person, who deserves a partner who will be a good fit for your personality, who will be kind to you, and who you’re attracted to physically and emotionally. Instead of going into a date thinking, “will they like me?” think, “will I like them?” Assume that they’re going to like you, because you’re wonderful. Now it’s just up to you to decide if they’re worth your time. This mindset can make dating feel like a fun shopping trip for a good match, instead of a stressful exam. If you’re not in a committed relationship yet, boost your confidence by going on dates with other people who you also find interesting. Who knows, you might find someone you like better than your current crush! It also gives your crush the chance to see that other people like you, and it gives you practice in going on dates, so that they don’t feel scary. If you’re really in love with your crush, and don’t want to date anybody else, then make lots of plans with your friends and family. Your crush will see that you’re a person who a lot of people love. Invite your friends over for a fun bonding activity where you all write each other anonymous notes about things you love about each other. It’s a great way to shower some love on your friends, and at the end of it you’ll have a stack of notes about all the ways you are wonderful. You can read these whenever you’re feeling down and need reminders about how special and loved you are. Another great option is to look back at your old high-school yearbook or old birthday cards, and read all the kind things people have written about you. Other people can often see your true beauty more easily than you can.

TL;DR in Russian:

Повышайте свою самооценку и уверенность в себе, концентрируясь на тех качествах и умениях, которые делают вас настоящей находкой. Если хотите, общайтесь и с другими молодыми людьми. Устройте вечеринку признаний в любви со своими друзьями.


The best way to prepare you to row on a boat in the water is by building your body strength on a water rower machine. This machine will target all the areas on your body that you will be using when in an actual boat: your legs, core, and upper body. You can purchase one of these machines for home use, or you can find them in many gyms or work out facilities. There are many exercises you can do to strengthen your core and abs. These exercises will help target not just your core, but your upper body as well:  Plank: Lie face down on the ground. Place your elbows on the ground underneath your shoulders with your forearms extended straight in front of you. Then, left yourself up on your toes and your forearms, keeping your body straight. Hold this position for 30 seconds to two minutes, increasing the amount of time you hold as you get stronger. Side plank: Begin in the same position as the plank and lift yourself up onto your arms and toes. Then, slowly turn your body to the side, so that your weight is resting on one foot and one arm (either your left foot and arm or your right). Make sure your body is in a straight line and you aren't leaning over. Hold this position for 30 seconds to two minutes and then switch to the other side. V-sit hold: Sit on the ground with your legs straight in front of you and your upper body straight. Then, extend your arms out in front of you and slowly lift your legs off the ground. As you lift your legs off the ground, keep them straight, and slowly lean your upper body back, making sure to keep your back straight as you do so. Hold this position for 30 to 90 seconds. Your lower body is important when it comes to rowing because 60 percent of the strength you use to row should come from your legs. There are many exercises you can do to improve lower body strength, but a few to start with are:  Bridge: Lie on your back with you knees bent and feet flat against the floor, hip width apart. Then, slowly lift up your butt, using your glutes, until you have a straight line going from...

The best way to prevent an infestation begins here. Your hands are the part of your body most likely to transfer the pinworm eggs so keeping them clean means those eggs go down the drain. Make sure you and your family wash hands before eating or handling food, after using the bathroom, and after changing a diaper.  Use warm water with a mild soap and vigorous hand-washing for about 30 seconds. Think two cycles of "Happy Birthday" or the "ABC song." Wash your hands before, during, and after any and all activities with institutionalized friends/relatives, co-workers, etc. Keep your hands away from your mouth whenever you are in a school or institutional environment. Be sure to wash your hands after attending to children who are being treated for pinworms. Avoid biting your fingernails. Remember, this is a pinworm egg’s favorite hiding place. If you’ve come into contact with them or scratched an itch where the pinworms are hiding (e.g. clothes, exposed skin), they’ll be hiding under your nails.  Be careful not to trim them too short as that can cause other health issues for you or your loved one’s fingers. Always make sure to clean under the fingernails both when washing your hands and taking baths/showers. It should be a general practice to keep that area clean. Have children wear close-fitting sleepwear and underpants and mittens. This will make it harder for them to scratch at night and pick up the worms. Every family member should shower or bathe every morning and change undergarments daily (showering may be preferred to avoid contaminated bathwater). During treatment, shower at night and in the morning to remove eggs that have been laid during the night. Doing so increases the risk of contact with the pinworm eggs. In fact, to be better safe than sorry, wash EVERYTHING in hot water. Just be careful not to put that red sock in with the whites. When you handle the bedding, clothing, and towels of an infected person (or one you may suspect is infected), do so carefully. Avoid shaking the articles and wash...

TL;DR in Russian:

Научитесь правильно мыть руки. Следите за чистотой ногтей и коротко подрезайте их. Не расчесывайте кожу в области заднего прохода. Не ешьте в спальной комнате. Стирайте все предметы постельного белья, одежды и полотенца, которые могли контактировать с зараженными людьми, в горячей воде и сушите при высокой температуре. Наполните комнаты светом.


The best way to prevent blind pimples is proper face hygiene. This means you should wash your face and areas with pimples twice a day. You may want to take a bath or shower once a day to remove dirt and oil from your entire body.  Always wash your face after any activities where you sweat a lot. Avoid touching your face as well because this can introduce bacteria to the skin on your face. If you are having trouble with blind pimples under your skin, cleanse your face with a gentle, plant-oil based product. When choosing a face wash, look for one labeled non-comedogenic. Non-comedogenic products do not lead to the formation of pimples.  Examples of non-comedogenic products include Neutrogena, Cetaphil, and Olay. Many store-brand products or generic products are also non-comedogenic. Always check the label to make sure. Use alcohol-free products on your face because alcohol irritates and may damage the skin. When you wash your face, use your fingertips to wash. Washcloths and sponges may irritate the skin, which can lead to more problems. Massage the face wash gently in a circular motion. Avoid scrubbing your face. This can cause scarring.

TL;DR in Russian:

Умывайтесь два раза в день. Используйте мягкое средство для умывания. Используйте руки и пальцы, а не губки или мочалки.
