You'll need a hanging fruit basket. This should be the type that has only one basket, and four hanging chains that meet up at the center hook. It should also be made of sturdy metal, and not plastic or very thin metal. You'll also need mounting hardware for the basket, wire cutters, and four curtain panels. Using metal cutters, cut a 1/4"-1/2" gap at the center of the rim between each support chain. Slide the curtains on, one half of a panel onto one side of the cut gap, the other half on the other side. Following the manufacturer's instructions for the mounting hook you got, attach it to the ceiling above the bed. It should be mounted in a ceiling stud, which may require a stud finder to locate. Hang the basket to the hook you mounted. You can get LED icicle lights (preferably on a battery pack) and put them in the basket to create a chandelier effect. This is not required however. Just enjoy your new bed canopy.

You'll need a jailbroken iPhone in order to save Snaps on an iOS device. Jailbreaking can be a difficult or even impossible process, depending on the version of iOS you are running. See Jailbreak an iPhone for instructions on jailbreaking your iPhone, if possible. If you cannot jailbreak your iPhone due to the version of iOS you are running, you will not be able to save Snaps without notifying the other person. Cydia is the jailbreak package manager, and will allow you to find and download the Phantom Snapchat tweak. You'll find Cydia on your Home screen after jailbreaking. This will open the Cydia search. You should see a list of results. Phantom is available in the BigBoss repository, which comes preconfigured with Cydia. This is a Snapchat tweak that will allow you to save Snaps without notifying the other person. Phantom is available for iOS 8 and iOS 9. This will add Phantom to your installation queue. The tweak will be downloaded and installed to your iPhone, which may take a few minutes. After installation is complete, your Home screens will reset. Phantom adds controls directly to the Snapchat app. Launch Snapchat to see the new options. You'll be able to save any Snap directly from the Snap itself. Open the Snap you want to save to your device. This button was added by Phantom, and will open a new menu. The Snap will be saved to your iPhone's camera roll. You can do this for every Snap if you'd like. You can adjust Phantom's settings from the Snapchat settings menu. Tap the Ghost button on the Snapchat camera screen, and then tap the Gear button. You'll see a new option allowing you to adjust Phantom's settings. You can set Phantom to automatically save all received Snaps, and you can set it to save Snaps to a password protected folder backed up to iCloud instead of to your camera roll. Phantom gets updated on a regular basis, usually whenever Snapchat locks it out. If you intend to use Phantom regularly, you should check for updates every day in Cydia.

TL;DR in Russian:

Взломайте iPhone. В iPhone запустите Cydia. Щелкните по «Поиск» (в правом нижнем углу). В поисковой строке введите «phantom» (без кавычек). Выделите утилиту Phantom, созданную компанией CokePokes. Нажмите «Установить» (в верхнем правом углу). Нажмите «Подтвердить», чтобы запустить установку. Запустите Snapchat. Откройте картинку, которую нужно сохранить. Нажмите «Скачать» (в нижнем правом углу открытой картинки). Выберите «Сохранить», чтобы сохранить картинку без уведомления другого пользователя. Откройте настройки Snapchat, чтобы просмотреть настройки Phantom. Регулярно обновляйте Phantom.


You'll need a large jar and a smaller one that just fits inside. The dirt and ants will be placed in the space between the small jar and the large jar. The small jar functions as a way to take up space in the middle so that the ant colony will build tunnels and lay eggs close to the outer edge, putting these processes in plain view. Skipping this step will allow the ants to burrow deep toward the middle of the jar, which they'll naturally want to do.  Different-sized canning jars are perfect for this project. But, if you want your ants to be happy, then buy a larger container. Look for jars without etching, print or raised numbers and letters. Plain, clear glass will give you the best view of the ants. If you'd prefer to have a flat ant farm, check out your local pet store and purchase a skinny aquarium. You can also order an ant farm setup from online retailers. The ants will need a loose substrate that stays moist and allows them to dig and tunnel. If you're planning to source the ants from your yard or a nearby area, your best bet is to use dirt they already naturally live in. Dig up enough dirt to fill up the extra space in your jar. Use a fork or your fingers to loosen the dirt until it's nice and fine. Now mix 2 parts dirt with 1 part sand - less if your dirt is already naturally quite sandy.  If you aren't planning on getting your ants from a nearby location and the dirt you have on hand doesn't seem suitable, you can buy potting soil and sand from a gardening store and mix it to serve as your substrate. If you order an ant farm kit, it should come with the right mixture for those particular ants. You want the mix to be slightly moist, but not soaking wet. If it's too dry, the ants will dry out; if it's too wet, they'll drown. There are many species of ants and, by and large, they nest in the ground. Look for anthills in slightly exposed areas in your yard. You'll know it's an anthill by observing the tell-tale volcano-shaped pile of small grains of dirt, with a tiny entrance hole near the top. ...

You'll need a large sharpening stone for these steps. Lightly coat the rough side of the stone with sharpening oil. Push the blade across the stone in a cutting motion. Raise the handle while moving the blade to sharpen all the way to the tip. After a few strokes, flip the blade over to the other side. After you have a sharp edge on every part of the blade, repeat the sharpening on the fine side of the sharpening stone. Hold a piece of printer paper in your hand and cut down near where you're holding with the knife. A properly sharpened blade should be able to easily slice the paper into ribbons.

You'll need a large space to work in, so clear a decent-sized area--you'll be working with panels that are 5 feet (1.5 m) long. You'll need:  Tissue paper (24" by 30" (61 cm by 76 cm) Cutting pattern (available at Web Weather for Kids) Scissors Straight pins Rubber cement or glue sticks Pipe cleaners Propane stove or other high-heat apparatus This will make one 5 foot (1.5 m) long panel (1.5 m). Use your glue stick or rubber cement to keep the two pieces together. Make sure it's secure! If air escapes, the balloon won't fly.  Do this for seven more panels, for a total of 8 5-foot long panels. Plan out the order of the colors for the look of your balloon, but don't glue them together just yet. Make sure they are straight, so each panel is the same as the others. Pin the panels together with your straight pins to ensure the tissue doesn't move as you're cutting. This will help prevent rips and tears, which are detrimental to the success of your balloon. Use 1 inch (2.5 cm) of overlap on each panel, gluing on opposite sides as you go. After you glue all the sides together, it should fold out like a fan. After you have formed a line of panels, glue the first and last panel together with their open sides. This will form a ring. Make sure glue is placed up and down the entire line of each panel. It's easiest to do this with the balloon flat. Glue it over the top hole in the balloon. It's much better to make this circle too big than just barely big enough. Tissue paper is light enough that an extra inch or two won't affect the weight of your balloon and thus its ability to fly. You're going to start with your pipe cleaners to give it permanent structure.  Form the pipe cleaners into a circle the size of the bottom opening. Position the pipe cleaners on the inside about 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the edge. Fold the tissue over the pipe cleaners and glue it into place. If you don't have pipe cleaners, you can use wire. It should be at least 24 inches long (61 cm) and 16 gauge. You will also need wire cutters. If there are...

You'll need a metal yardstick or meter stick, a thick dowel with a diameter the same as the width of your ruler, rough steel wool, sandpaper, primer, and cloth or duct tape for wrapping the grip, as well as contact cement or metal epoxy adhesive. You'll be using a saw to cut and split your dowel; a vise clamp is also recommended, but not strictly necessary. Use plenty of steel wool and scour the ruler as much as you can to roughen and clean the surface. If your ruler's markings are painted onto the surface, the wool might also get rid of them; feel free to scour them away, if this is the case. When you're done, wipe the ruler clean with a dry cloth. Measure out a length of dowel that will work well as a handgrip, and cut that piece off the end of the dowel. Measure and mark across one end at the midway point, then carefully saw the dowel into two even, semi-cylindrical halves, using a saw guide to hold the dowel steady. Lightly sand the flat insides of each dowel half with very fine grit sandpaper. Following the instructions for your metal epoxy or contact cement, evenly glue one half of the dowel to each flat side of the base of the ruler, and let it dry completely. If you have a vise clamp, clamp the pieces firmly (without damaging the soft wood) and let it dry that way to improve the bond. Once the dowel grip is secure, sand away any excess glue from the seams, and then heft it in your hand. If the grip feels awkward, try sanding down the sides a little bit at a time, alternating evenly on each side, until the grip becomes a bit more oblong and can be held more easily. When you're satisfied, cover the grip with painter's tape and spray a coat of primer onto one side of the blade, then the other. Apply another coat to completely obscure any markings on the ruler. Let both coats dry completely. Remove the painter's tape from the grip and sand it with ultra-fine grit sandpaper to remove potential splinters, then wrap it in adhesive medical tape, duct tape, or leather cord to make a soft grip. Your new katana...

You'll need a pair of dumbbells in a weight that you can lift 8 - 10 times before feeling muscle fatigue. Doing this exercise 2 times weekly will build up strength in your biceps and eventually help you get better at pull-ups.  Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and the dumbbells at your sides. Curl the dumbbells up to chest height, bending your elbows. Lower the dumbbells back to your sides. Repeat for 3 sets of 10 curls. This exercise simulates a pullup, but it's a lot easier to do because most of your weight is on the ground. It's an excellent way to start building up enough strength to do a pullup. You'll need either a dip bar or a sturdy mop or broom positioned across two chairs. Here's how to do it:  Lie down with your neck positioned under the bar or broom. Bend your legs and keep your feet against the floor. Grip the bar with your palms facing out. Lift your chest toward the bar as far as possible.  Lower back down to the ground and repeat. You'll need a pulldown machine to do this. It's another effective way to strengthen your upper body and make you better at pull-ups.  Stand in front of a pulldown machine and grip the bar. Sit down and pull the bar down to your collar bones. Keep your shoulder blades down and back and lean backward while you do this. Repeat. This is like a pullup, but instead of gripping the bar with your palms facing out, they should face toward you. This position is generally easier and exercises the biceps and upper back. This position is a great compound bicep exercise, and a good exercise to do when you're training to become better at pull-ups.  Grip the bar with your hands facing you. Pull your bodyweight off of the ground, crossing your feet beneath you. Keep lifting until your chin reaches the bar. Lower yourself back down.

TL;DR in Russian:

Накачивание бицепсов. Сделайте противоположные отжимания. Выполните тяги. Попробуйте выполнить еще один вид подтягиваний.


You'll need a pickaxe to gather the stone or metals for a better sword. Here's a brief summary of how to find these, from most to least common:  Stone is widely available in mountainsides and just beneath the surface. Mine it with a wooden pickaxe. Iron (stone with beige flecks) is fairly common just beneath the surface, and requires a stone pickaxe to mine. Gold and diamond ore are very rare and only found deep under the earth. Combine two cobblestone and a stick to make a stone sword. This deals 6 damage and lasts for 132 hits before breaking. (In comparison, the wooden sword does 5 damage and lasts for 60 hits.) As with all swords, the computer recipe fills only one column, with the stick at the bottom. Iron is a great dependable material you'll be relying on for a long time. Once you have iron ingots (see below), you can make an iron sword that does 7 damage for 251 hits. After mining the ore, you'll need to smelt the iron ore into ingots using a furnace. Despite its rarity, gold is not very good for tools. If you smelt the gold ingots and make them into a sword, it will deal the same damage as a wooden sword but only last for 33 hits. There is one advantage to golden swords: they have the best chance at a high level enchantment. Many players still don't like to enchant them since they're such temporary tools. Now you've really made it in the world. Diamonds are the best material for tools and weapons, and do not require smelting. A diamond sword does eight damage and lasts for 1,562 hits. Place two damaged swords of the same type anywhere in the crafting area. The result will be a sword with more durability than both of them put together. You cannot increase the durability past the sword's normal maximum this way. A "damaged" sword is any sword that has been used at least once. You should see a small bar next to the item icon showing you how much durability is left.

TL;DR in Russian:

Соберите киркой нужные материалы. Создайте каменный меч. Железный меч. Золотой меч. Алмазный меч. Чините мечи.


You'll need a program called a "client" to connect. The OpenVPN organization does not provide a client for Mac. Tunnelblick is a free OpenVPN client designed for Mac. You can download Tunnelblick here. Select the "Latest" link to download the installer. This will open a new window. Right-click the Tunnelblick.app file and select "Open". Confirm that you want to open the program. Enter your administrator information to install Tunnelblick. Every OpenVPN service should have configuration files available to download. These make setting up Tunnelblick much simpler. You can download the files from your VPN's support page. Start Tunnelblick once you've downloaded the files. You'll be prompted to select your new configuration files before the client can start. Click "I have configuration files" and then select "OpenVPN Configuration(s)". If the files are specifically for Tunnelblick, select "Tunnelblick VPN Configuration(s)" instead.  Select "Open Private Configurations Folder". This will open a new finder window. Drag and drop all of your configuration files into the folder that opens. Select a server to connect to it. You'll be prompted for your administrator password the first time that you connect to the server. Enter the username ad password you were assigned by the VPN service when prompted. You can choose to save these to your Keychain for easier logins. You may be prompted to download a security certificate upon connecting to the server. You'll need this certificate to connect.

You'll need a reasonably long, leather jacket, and then you'll need to distress it for that 'battle hardened' look. You'll need the waistcoat in burgundy. However, khakis are recommended. You should get them in brown suede. Amazon is a good place to get these It may sound silly, but it's the most accurate thing you can find at an affordable price. Tie it accordingly like they did in "Day of the Doctor." However, there is a replica at Magnoli Clothiers - however, it is rather expensive. You'll need to have it in the sort of sticky-uppy style (not unlike David Tennant's). If you don't feel like dying it white, you can always buy a wig and dye that. For fake ones, go on Amazon and search for rapper goatee. you should dye it white like the hair. Any brown leather bandolier works as long as it can hold a sonic screwdriver.  If you're dead-set on accuracy, get some prosthetic make up (like the kind for the Hartnell costume). "Doctor no more." - War Doctor (Night of the Doctor, 2013)

You'll need a small, closed off area of your home to play this game. This area is generally dark, though you could also choose one that is well lit. You might also want to include chairs for players to sit in, though this is not necessary to play the game.  Some locations you might consider for your game include a closet, a bathroom, or a laundry room, to name a few. If you want the room to be dark at all times, you could remove the light bulb(s) from the fixture(s) in the room. Be sure that the area is clear and free of any obstacles that might be dangerous, especially if you've removed the lights from the room. To keep players from watching the clock, you may want to remove clocks from the room where you'll be playing the game. This may include cell phones and watches. Typically, this game is played with a roughly equal number of boys and girls, though depending on the preferences of the players, this might not always be the case. A group of 10 - 14 is common, though the game can be played with as few as 6 people. You may want to play with friends from school, your neighborhood, or if you're at camp, you might try to play the game with campmates. Now that the room is prepared and you have your players gathered, you'll need to explain the rules of the game. This is particularly important because there can be many different variations of 7 Minutes in Heaven. Generally, the rules include:  Selecting two people at random. Sending the chosen two into the room for a private 7 minutes. Don't forget to close the door! Letting the chosen two out of the room at the end of 7 minutes. You might also create "house rules" when you play, like "the lights have to be on/off" or "no watches or cell phones allowed in the room." To prevent anyone from feeling uncomfortable, you may want to make a rule that no one has to go into the room unless they want to. This is how you're going to select the two people sent into the room for their 7 minutes in heaven. You might spin a  bottle to randomly select two people or draw names...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьтесь к игре. Соберите игроков. Объясните игрокам правила. Теперь придумайте, как выбрать двух людей, которые пойдут в отдельную комнату на 7 минут. Теперь начните играть.


You'll need a swim cap, pantyhose, or some sort of hat that will cover around your hairline. If you have a manikin head, great! Throw it on there. Otherwise, you may have to trust your eyeballing skills. This is ultimately up to you. The longer the hair you want, the longer your pieces of yarn should be.  Raggedy Andy has hair somewhere between 6 and 10 inches (15 and 25 cm) long. After your yarn is cut, take one piece of yarn, tie a knot on both ends, and set it aside. This will be your control, or a length example. If you run out of yarn, you'll be able to cut more with this piece, matching the length. If you're making a split-colored wig, only draw a line over half of the base. It's best to start from the bottom, but you can really start anywhere. The mobility of the base allows you to hold it from all positions. If you started on top, flip the yarn to other side of head or tie up to see the under layers better.  If you want your wig to be a thick, full set of hair, your pieces and lines will need to be very close together. If you're less concerned, draw glue lines with about an inch or two (2.5 - 5 cm) apart and place your pieces of yarn as you see fit. Style the yarn once dried!

TL;DR in Russian:

Наденьте основу на шар или голову. Разрежьте пряжу на отрезки. Проведите небольшую, толстую линию клея на основе. Приклеивайте нити пряжи вплотную друг к другу, пока не покроете весь парик.


You'll need a thin, 3" shucking knife that has a rounded tip that makes it ideal for shucking your clams. Don't confuse this with a pointed oyster knife, which is used differently. If you don't have one of these, make sure you use a small, sharp knife. Use a towel to hold the clam in your hand. This will protect your hand when you pry open the clam shell with a knife. If you really feel unsteady, you can also wear gloves. Make sure the hinge of the clam shell is nestled in the area of your palm nearest your thumb. The opening of the clam should be at your fingertips. You can also press down on the clam a bit to give it some added pressure to make it easier to pry it open with the knife.    Press into the clam, right into the muscle. Alternately, you can insert the knife at the hinge of the shell, but then you'd have to use a lot more pressure to try to break open the hinge and shuck the clam that way. You'll have to squeeze the knife between the shells to loosed the adductor muscles and the hinge of the shells. Continue to twist the knife until you break the seal of the clam and your knife is inside the clam shell. Don't force it too much and be careful not to cut your hand. Use the knife more as a form of leverage than force. You will use the knife to pry open the top shell of the clam. This will ensure that you've cut the hinge of the clam shell and are ready to open the clam. Cut the upper adductors and take off the top shell. When the clam is ready, you will hear a nice snapping sound. Using your fingers, pull the top shell off of the clam. Try to save the clam juice, which is a delicious part of the clam. Just slip the knife under the clam meat to loosen those lower adductors of the clam. Place each clam in a top shell to assemble clams on a half-shell, or prepare the clams according to a recipe. You can place the clams on ice until you're ready to eat or cook them.

You'll need about 3 tablespoons (22 g) of sweetened cocoa powder or 2 tablespoons of syrup to make an 8 ounce (236 ml) mocha. You can either place the chocolate into the mug you'll be serving the mocha in or put it into a metal steaming pitcher with your milk. Measure about 10 to 12 (295 to 355 ml) ounces of milk into the pitcher if you're going to make an 8 ounce (236 ml) mocha. You can also put the chocolate into a tiny metal pitcher. This way, you can pull the espresso shot directly into the chocolate which will help it dissolve. This is useful if you'll be making an iced mocha and can't steam the chocolate with the milk. To make a double shot, place 15 grams of espresso grounds in a clean portafilter. Tamp it down so that it packs the grounds evenly. This will ensure that water passes through it evenly. Lock the group handle into the espresso machine and place a small metal pitcher underneath. Turn on the espresso machine to pull the shot. It should take about 20 to 25 seconds for the shot to pull through.  It's important to weigh out your espresso grounds. If you don't have enough grounds, your espresso will filter through too quickly and taste weak. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for your espresso machine. Adding too many grounds to the portafilter could damage the machine. Turn on the steam wand on your espresso machine for a few seconds to clean it out before you steam the milk. Insert the steam wand into the metal pitcher of milk and turn on the steam wand. Keep the wand towards the bottom of the jug and only bring it near the surface of the milk a few times to make foam. Heat your milk between 140 and 160 degrees F (60 to 71 degrees Celsius). Clean the steam wand with a wet cloth and turn it on for a few seconds to clear any milk out of the tube. You can either insert a thermometer into the milk while you're steaming or hold you hand on the side of the pitcher as you steam. Once the pitcher becomes too hot to touch, move your hand away and continue to steam the milk for a few more...

You'll need about a foot of aluminum foil, tape of any kind, and an unsharpened pencil. You may also need a sharp knife to whittle your pencil. If you don't have a pencil, you can substitute a pen, a chopstick, a dowel--anything pen-shaped. Pencils or other wooden objects work best, however, as you may want to cut your stylus to have an angled tip. You are not sharpening the pencil tip as though you are going to write with it. The angled tip should still have a surface area of at least four millimeters, about the size of a pencil eraser or the very tip of your finger. Many capacitive touch screens will not register the touch of anything smaller.  The stylus will work without this step, but you will have to hold it straight up and down. This will make it more comfortable to hold. Always be careful when handling a knife--remember to cut away from your body. Never pull the knife toward yourself.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте необходимые материалы. Срежьте кончик карандаша под небольшим углом при помощи ножа.


You'll need an anvil to customize your name tag later. To craft an anvil, you will need the following:   Three iron blocks - Each iron block requires nine iron bars, for a total of twenty-seven iron bars needed.  Four iron bars - These bars bring the iron total to thirty-one. You can create iron bars by adding iron ore, which is the grey stone with orange-brown spots, into a furnace that has coal in it. It will open to a three-by-three grid. If you haven't yet crafted a crafting table, you can do so by placing a plank of wood in each of your inventory's four crafting slots. To do so, you'll place the three iron blocks in the top row of the crafting table grid, three of the four iron bars along the bottom row of the grid, and the final iron bar in the center of the grid, then select the anvil icon.  On the PE version of Minecraft, tap the black anvil icon on the left side of the screen. On the console version of Minecraft, select the anvil icon in the "Structures" tab. You can only gather name tags in one of three ways:   Fishing - Blank name tags are random catches when fishing.  Buying from villagers - Villagers will sell blank name tags for between 20 and 22 emeralds.  Looting fortresses - If you come across a chest in a fortress, an abandoned mine shaft, or a mansion, there is anywhere from a 22 percent to a 40 percent chance that you'll find a name tag. You'll need three sticks and two pieces of string to do so. You can also combine two damaged fishing poles to craft a working pole. To fish, you'll cast out a line by right-clicking (or tapping, or pressing the left trigger) while facing a body of water with your fishing pole equipped. When your pole's bobber dips below the surface of the water and you hear a splashing noise, you'll press the "Cast" button again. You'll likely catch a lot of fish and other junk before you reel in a name tag, since name tags are fairly rare. Villages are randomly generated structures situated around Minecraft's world. If you know of a village's location and you have plenty...

You'll need an electric motor or similar type rotary motor that runs on at least 12 volts; 18 volts would be ideal.  The motor will have a small shaft protruding from the center.  Take a small four-hole button and attach it to that shaft with superglue.  Be careful not to use so much glue that it seeps through the holes of the button and blocks them.  They need to be open so that you can attach the needle.  Set it aside to dry.    Instead of a button, you can use an eraser.  Take the eraser from a mechanical pen and push it firmly onto the small shaft of your motor.  You can remove the motor from a VCR or remote control car, but the power will be considerably less; it's about 3.5 volts.    The "tube" will guide the needle.  It's easy to make one from a pencil or pen.  Use a mechanical pencil.  An inexpensive plastic pencil will work fine, or you can choose one that's metal.  Depending on your preference, you can leave the pencil as-is or cut it down to about a 3" to 4" length.     Alternately, you can use an everyday stick pen like a Bic and remove the ink cylinder from inside.  If you want a shorter tube, cut the pen to about a 3" or 4" length.  File down the brass tip of the pen to get the ball out and make the hole big enough to allow passage of the needle.    The brace will support the tube when it's attached to the machine motor for the tattoo gun.  Take a teaspoon and break off the bowl (the part you eat from).  Then bend the spoon back to create an "L"-shape.     A second option would be to cut the bristles off of a toothbrush leaving about 4" in length.  Use a lighter to heat up the plastic toothbrush handle and bend it into an "L" shape.  Hold the bent handle in place until the plastic cools, and it becomes stiff.    Cut a metal guitar string an inch or so longer than the length of your tube.  It should reach from the center of the motor to the tip of the tube after assembly.  Put soap and water into a pot and bring it to a boil.  Drop your needle into the pot and boil it for five minutes.  Rinse it...

Найдите мотор. Сделайте трубку. Придумайте скобу. Сделайте иглу.


You'll need an extremely large stainless-steel mixing bowl and a large balloon whisk to properly whip cream by hand.  A bit of patience and strong arms (or a friend who'll lend a hand) are nice to have, too.  A balloon whisk helps to incorporate lots of air into the cream as you whip, creating an airier, lighter product. Chef Leslie Bilderback recommends what she calls a "ludicrously oversized bowl" because the more surface area the cream has, the faster it will whip. Always chill your mixing bowl ahead of time.  A stainless-steel mixing bowl is your best choice because it'll hold the chill longer, but you can also use porcelain or glass.  To keep your cream extra cold while working, you can also set the mixing bowl inside a larger bowl that you've filled halfway with ice. Begin whipping the cream in a wide, circular motion.  As you whip, lift the whisk out of the cream with each pass.  By doing this, you'll bring more air into the cream, and it'll whip more quickly. Whip as quickly as you can; the faster the better. After whipping your cream for about 30 seconds, you should see lots of little bubbles--the cream should resemble foam.  Continue whipping and notice when you get to the point that you can see and to feel your cream begin to thicken. It depends on your arm strength and how successfully you maintain good whipping technique. When you get to the point that the cream starts to hold it's shape, you've reached the soft peak stage.  This is the point at which you'll add sugar and/or flavorings to your cream. If you're working ahead and won't be serving your cream for a while, stop whipping now and put your bowl in the refrigerator until you're ready to finish. It should only take an additional minute or so to move from the soft-peak to the stiff-peak stage.  To test it, take a scoop on the end of your whisk and turn it upside-down.  The peak on the scoop should hold firm and not soften back into itself. If you over whip your cream, you will end up with butter.  If you see it the mixture starting to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Приготовьте необходимые кухонные принадлежности. Освойте технику взбивания. Взбивайте сливки до тех пор, пока они не загустеют. Прежде чем крем загустеет, может пройти минута или несколько минут. Доведите сливки до стадии некрепкой пены. Закончите взбивание, когда крем достигнет стадии крепкой пены. Вовремя остановитесь.


You'll need at least 7 GB of free space on your computer to install Ubuntu, but you'll want more if you intend to install programs or download lots of files. You'll be able to install Ubuntu alongside Windows or replace Windows entirely. If you're planning on replacing your Windows installation, make sure that all of your important files are backed up. Ubuntu will erase the drive containing Windows if you choose to replace it. You can install Ubuntu from any USB drive that has at least 2 GB of space. Make sure that the drive doesn't have any important files on it, as the drive's contents will be deleted when creating the USB installer. You can access the Ubuntu Desktop site at ubuntu.com/download/desktop. Ubuntu typically offers two versions: the LTS version and the latest stable release. The LTS (long-term support) release will get security and system updates for five years, and is the recommended option for most users. The newest release will get nine months of updates before you're expected to move on to the next new release. Most newer computers can run the 64-bit version of Ubuntu. If you're using an older computer and aren't sure if it's 64-bit, click here. You'll be prompted to donate to Canonical before you're taken to the download. If you don't want to donate, scroll down and click "Not now, take me to the download". You'll be downloading the Ubuntu ISO file, which is a little over a gigabyte in size. This could take a while if you have a slow connection. This free tool formats your USB drive, adds the Linux installation files, and makes the USB bootable. You can download it for free from pendrivelinux.com. Make sure that your USB drive is inserted and that it doesn't have any important files on it. You can use this utility to create a USB for any Linux distribution. Make sure to select Ubuntu so that it is formatted correctly. You can usually find it in your Downloads folder. Make sure you have the correct drive selected if you have multiple USB drives inserted. This will begin formatting the USB...

You'll need at least one set to film against.  If you live near a city or in one you could make it in Coruscant (see episode 1,2,3). If you live in woods, it would be a good idea to make the movie in Kashyyk (see Episode 3) or Endor (see Episode 6). If you live in a place like Arizona (desert), you could make it on Tatooine (see Episodes 1, 2, 3, 4, or 6). If in the mountains, make it on Hoth (see Episode 5). Or, if you live in the mountains with either forest or snow (never use both, unless you are creating your own planet), you can make forest moons like Endor or Yavin 4, or ice planets like Hoth. If you have a big field, you could make it Naboo (see Episode 1 or 2). If you live near a swamp, make it Dagobah (episode 5). Do not just film the thing with toy lightsabers and guns and make swoosh sounds with your mouth. Download Lsmaker or FXhome visionlab Studio (both have a lightsaber effects program). Add other sound effects from the internet. You can play it on your guitar but you can make it better by adding the real deal.  You can get music from the internet as well. This will depend on your budget and computer type; do the research to get the best for what you can afford.

You'll need black oil sunflower seeds, glass pie dishes (at least two), and some healthy soil from your local garden store (preferably organic). Take one of your glass pie dishes and fill it with soil until it is just below the crust lip. Take a 1/4 cup of seeds and soak them in a bowl of water, completely covered in water, for 8 hrs. Spread the seeds across the soil and then water them thoroughly. Place the bottom surface of the second pie plate on top of the soil, as if you were nesting the plates. Press down and drain the excess water. Store your sprouting seed (with the second pie dish still on top) in a warm, dark place. Wait about three days, but check on them every day. When the upper plate is lifted about an inch, remove it from the dark place. Remove the upper plate and place the sprouts in a sunny location. When they're ready to be eaten, cut the sprouts and rinse them to get rid of the shells. From the time you take them into the sun, it takes roughly another two days for them to be ready to eat. Shorter if it's very warm where you live. Try them in salads, sushi, soup, or sandwiches. Enjoy!

Как только они будут готовы, можно накрывать на стол!


You'll need black pencil eyeliner, a light color eyeliner, and a white liner or shadow. Any kind will do. Whatever brush or applicator you use normally should be just fine. You can use a handheld mirror or stand in front of the sink mirror as you apply your makeup. The second option is easier because you can have both hands free.

TL;DR in Russian:

Соберите необходимую косметику. Возьмите черные тени для век. Подготовьте аппликаторы для теней. У вас под рукой должно быть зеркало.


You'll need cornstarch, water, and food coloring or cocoa powder. If you're using food coloring to get the brown, dirt look, use equal amounts of red, blue, and yellow food coloring (2 drops of each should suffice). Starting with 1-2 cups of cornstarch, mix in the cocoa powder if this is how you're getting the brown color. With those ingredients mixed, or minus the cocoa if using the food coloring, slowly add in water and mix the two together. Stop adding water when you get the magic consistency, where it's hard when you touch it but melts when you don't. If you want, you can add in real dirt for texture or other kitchen materials, like rice flour or baking soda. This will give your play "mud" a grittier texture, like real mud.

TL;DR in Russian:

You'll need eggs, milk or heavy cream, salt and pepper, and grease of your choice. You can also assemble an array of spices if you want like: cream of tartar, oregano, or cayenne powder. There are two ways you can prepare scrambled eggs: 1) in a bowl or 2) in the pan. In a bowl you have more control over how scrambled your eggs are and you can add in spices before cooking. Add a dollop of heavy cream into your bowl if you choose creamier eggs. Any kind of bowl that you'd eat out of will do, it all depends on how many eggs you're making. If you're cooking for a crowd, use a mixing bowl. Next you're going to pop the yolks if you left them in and whisk them until they're blended with the whites. You can use a fork for this. If you like seeing the whites in your finished product, then whisk less. Some people like to fluff up their eggs by adding a bit of milk at this point, which is fine, but you do loose a bit of the egg flavor in lieu of creamier eggs. If you do add milk, the ratio is about 1.5 oz (~43 mL) for each egg, erring on the side of less milk is better. You'll want to heat the pan a little before you throw the eggs on, just enough to feel the heat directly above the pan. Half way between low and medium heat should be good to heat the pan. If you're using oil, pour about an ounce in then tilt the pan to coat the bottom. If you're using butter (salt or unsalted), place enough to coat the bottom of the pan. Oil is better for nonstick pans, but butter will give your eggs better flavor. To turn up the technique and flavor, use the bacon grease. This could be the easiest method by cooking the eggs directly into the pan you cooked the bacon in. Next you'll pour the whisked eggs onto the pan. Be careful not to overfill your pan. The eggs should cover just the bottom of the pan. If you do overfill, though, it'll just take longer to scramble your eggs and will increase the chance of them sticking to the pan.  Use the spatula to push the eggs about as they cook. They should start to bunch together and begin...

You'll need either an official PlayStation 2 controller (called a DualShock 2), or a third-party controller designed for the PS2. All new PlayStation 2 models come with a single DualShock 2 controller. You cannot use a PS1 controller regularly with your PS2, but you can use a PS1 controller while playing PS1 games. If you want to be able to save your progress in games, you'll need to insert a PS2 memory card, official memory cards are 8 MB, which is enough space for lots of saved games. You can purchase unofficial larger memory cards, but these have a higher chance of failing and corrupting your saved data. However, official, larger memory cards do exist in 16 MB and 32 MB. You can store using the hard drive add-on without a memory card, but you need a memory card to install the hard drive software.  You can play games without a memory card or a HDD, but your progress will be lost whenever you turn the system off or change games. Memory cards are inserted directly above the controller. Make sure that the memory card label is facing up when you insert it. Turn on your TV and switch it to the input that the PlayStation 2 is connected to. If you connected the PS2 to your VCR or receiver, make sure that the VCR or receiver is set to the correct input, and that your TV is set to the VCR or receiver's input. The light should turn green and, if the correct input is selected, you should see the PS2 opening logo animation. If there is no game inserted, you'll be taken to the PS2 system menu. If a game is inserted, it will start automatically after the boot-up animation. Press the Eject button on the front of the PlayStation 2 to either eject the tray (fat PS2) or pop open the lid (slim PS2). Place the game on the tray or place it onto the spindle. Push the slim lid closed, or push the Eject button again on the fat PlayStation 2 to close the tray.  Don't eject a game while playing, or it may quit without saving. Take care not to touch the surface of the game disc when inserting or removing it. This will help prevent...

You'll need extra length for the skirt, too. This will be your entire outfit, so go for length in addition to diameter. But you need the collar, so don't touch it! That's going to be how your shirt stays on. This will be easy if you spread the shirt over a flat surface. Also cut off the bottom 1/3 of the shirt. Eyeball how long you want the top and skirt. If you want a longer skirt, cut a longer bottom piece. Account for your butt and hips -- they'll make a long-looking skirt into a short one. Two tan shirts are always an option. They're pretty cheap and can be found at most craft supply stores. This will be your belt, so don't mess with it too much -- you are using it later. Cut one slice into the loop, forming a long strip. About 1" (2.5 cm) from the edge of your skirt, start cutting tiny slits for the belt to be inserted into. They should be 1-2" (2.5-5 cm) apart and only big enough so the belt can go through the holes. Thread your belt through these loops. You may start at the center, side, or back, depending on where you want your bow. Double knot the ends for securing. Take 1" (2.5 cm) wide sections and cut off strips of fabric. You should have a bunch of loops of fabric (and no semblance of a sleeve) once you're finished. Cut into all of them creating a handful of strips of brown fabric. When the edges curl in, don't fret: you want them to. This outfit is about the right imperfections. This will be what anchors the fringe. A double mini slit is basically two mini slits very close to each other with a very narrow strip of fabric in between. You're going to lace the fringe you just made into these slits. Start about 1" (2.5 cm) from the bottom edge of your skirt. Each set of two slits should be about 1" away from each other. Once you've laced all the fringe into the slits, double knot them, securing them to your skirt. They should be about 3" (7.5 cm) across at the top and get bigger as the material gets wider. Start about 2-3" (5-7.5 cm) away from the neckline. Cut one giant slice through the back of...

You'll need fluffy yarn, a sock, scissors, catnip, a needle and thread, and some feathers. You can discard the toe, as it will not be needed in constructing this toy. Again, this step is optional, as your cat will want to play with anything that resembles its natural prey. Tie the yarn to one end of the sock and wrap it completely, so you no longer see the sock. Tie down the other end of the yarn. Choose a few places to add feathers. Slip them under a loop of yarn and use the needle and thread to sew them in place. This will also keep the yarn from unraveling. Your cat will love this toy, as it combines feathers with a stuffed animal.

You'll need fuller's earth clay, plain yogurt with live cultures, honey and optionally aloe vera and tea tree oil. The clay may need to be bought online, although you should be able to purchase it from a hardware store. The rest should be available at large grocery stores. Mix two tablespoons of the clay with 1 tablespoon of yogurt, 1 teaspoon of honey, and either 2-3 drops of tea tree oil or 1 tablespoon aloe vera (depending on if you want these). The tea tree oil is good for fighting acne, the aloe vera for repairing damaged skin. Wash your face first. Then, with the ingredients completely mixed, use a clean brush (like a paint brush or a cheap makeup brush) to apply it to your face. Be careful not to get it in your eyes. After allowing the mask to sit on your face for at least half an hour (1-2 hours is best), rinse it off completely.

TL;DR in Russian:

You'll need large pieces of thick, sturdy cardboard, craft glue, paint, ribbon, and optionally a flat corner bracket which you can purchase from your local hardware store. Draw the shape of the axe you want, blade and handle, onto a piece of paper. The simpler the shape, the better it will work. Trace this shape onto at least four pieces of cardboard (six is better) and cut them out with a box cutter knife. If you're a kid, get help from an adult with this. It's very easy to stab yourself or cut your finger off! Take one piece of cardboard to act as the center. Glue the corner bracket at the L between the handle and the the blade. You can also place a thin stick or dowel rod in the handle piece if you want to. Glue all of the layers together, with the reinforced section in the middle. You can use the box cutter to bevel the edges of the blade section if you want. Once this is done you can cover the whole thing in duct tape, paint it to look real, or wrap the ribbon around the handle to give it a really authentic look. Enjoy your new battle ax!

You'll need several raw (not cooked) fish in order to tame an ocelot:   Make a fishing rod. Find a body of water. Equip the fishing rod. Select the body of water. Repeat until you have at least 10 fish. You can most often find ocelots in Jungle biomes, though their spawn behavior dictates that they'll be found near sea level (or higher) grass blocks. Ocelots can be elusive if you spook them, so you may have to search for quite a while before you find one. You may approach the ocelot carefully while it faces away from you, but the second it turns to face you, you must stop. A good rule of thumb is to keep around 10 blocks of space between you and the ocelot. The raw fish should be in your hand before you proceed. A few seconds after you equip the fish, the ocelot should begin to approach you. It's very important that you don't move at this point. Once the ocelot is in range, right-click (PC), left-trigger (consoles), or tap-and-hold the ocelot until it changes into a cat. At this point, the ocelot has been tamed.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймайте рыбу. Найдите оцелота. Не бегите к оцелоту. Возьмите сырую рыбу в руку. Позвольте оцелоту подойти к вам. Выбирайте оцелота, пока он не превратится в кошку.


You'll need several sheets of printer paper, regular tape, duct tape, Popsicle sticks, a pencil, strong twine, a ruler, an x-acto knife, and scissors. Take 4 sheets of printer paper and cut them in half along the long line. Roll each set of collated 4 into a tube (with a pencil at the center) from short side to short side. Tape the tube closed at three points along the barrel and then remove the pencil. Take 5 sheets of paper, collate them, and wrap them short end to short end into a tube with a pencil at the center once again. Tape the tube in several places and then remove the pencil. Cut two 1.5" sections of Popsicle stick and place it in the end of the tube so that the end is flush with the opening and mark 1.5" from that end of the tube on the outside of the barrel. Finally, insert a Popsicle stick in the opposite end and at a 90 degree turn from the other stick and place a single layer of duct tape around the whole barrel to keep it from breaking. Bend the arms at the 1.5" mark you made. Pinch the end of the barrel and then place the short sections of the arms on either side of the pinched end. Duct tape them into place. Make sure the connection is very tight and strong. Use a bowline knot to attach the far ends of the bow together. Attach it to one side, secure with tape, pull the string about 1" beyond the end of the other side, and then attach that side and secure it as well. Pull the bow back until it makes a square shape with the arms. Mark the point on the barrel where the center of the string reaches and place your trigger at that location. Use the x-acto knife to cut a hole straight through the barrel. Cut the end off of a Popsicle stick, split it down the middle, and place it through the hole to create the trigger. It should be able to wiggle back and forth a bit, and be long enough to extend out from the barrel on either side of the hole. If you're a kid, get help from an adult with this. It's very easy to stab yourself or cut your finger off! Cut a single sheet of paper in half along the long...

You'll need shallow bins with smooth walls made of either glass or plastic, so that the worms and beetles aren't able to climb out. 10 gallon (37.9 L) fish aquariums work very well, as do plastic storage containers. The containers need tops with tiny vents or airholes (wire mesh works, as does poking holes in the lid) that allow for airflow without letting the mealworms escape.  Darkling beetles can't fly, but a lid is a safety precaution that you should have.  Getting at least two (three, if you want to start a very large colony) is essential because you'll need to separate the beetles from the larvae a few weeks into the process. If you fail to separate them, they will eat one another.  Do not use wooden containers, as mealworms are able to eat through these. Mealworms feed on grains and cereals, and that's what you'll need to use as substrate. You can buy mealworm substrate from a feeder supply store, or you can make your own mixture from bran flakes, corn flakes, and other cereals.  The substrate should be ground to a fine powder to make it easier to pick out the worms and beetles when you need to move them. Depending on the needs of the pet you are feeding, you can add bone meal, cricket chow or other ingredients to change the nutritional profile of the mealworms. The number of mealworms you buy for your starter stock depends on how many animals you aim to feed. If you need to use the meal worms to start feeding the animals right away, aim for 5,000 or so to begin with. It takes a few months for the mealworms to reproduce, so this population will get depleted at first. If you don't mind waiting a few months for new mealworms, you can start with as few as 150 mealworms. Mealworms reproduce best when they're kept at a steady temperature of 70 to 75 °F (21 to 24 °C).  Choose a place in your home where you can keep the temperature consistent. The area should be clean and free of chemicals that could contaminate the colony.  A heated garage or basement would be the optimal place to keep your mealworms. You...

TL;DR in Russian:

Приобретите подходящие ящики. Подготовьте субстрат для выращивания мучного хрущака. Купите мучных червей. Создайте стабильную, благоприятную росту среду.


You'll need sharp sand (also called concrete sand), Portland cement, and water. How much of each will depend on how much mud you need. Both sharp sand and Portland cement should be readily available at your local hardware supply store. Mix the cement and the sand together until they're well blended. Different people will recommend different ratios for mixing (4:1, 5:1, 6:1, and 7:1), but a ratio of 5 parts sand to 1 part cement is the best starting option. "Stickier", stronger mud should be made using the 4:1 ratio, but this is difficult to mix. With the dry ingredients thoroughly mixed add in water slowly until it reaches the right consistency. It should be vaguely damp and stick together when you compress it in your hand.  The consistency will be similar to peanut butter. What type of sand you use and what the environment is like where you live will affect how much water you need to use. Use less if you know that you live in a wet area. Spread your mud as needed for your project. Adjust the ratios if you find they don't work for you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте материалы. Перемешайте цемент и песок. Влейте воду. Намажьте грязь по поверхности и внесите необходимые изменения.


You'll need six planks of the same wood to create the fence. Different types of wood will produce different color fences. You can get four wood planks from a single wood block by placing it in the center of your crafting table grid. You'll be using four of the planks for the fence and two to create sticks. Use two of the planks you crafted from the wood blocks to make sticks. You can turn two planks into four sticks by placing one plank in the center of the crafting grid and one directly below it. Place one stick in the center of the crafting grid and another directly below it. Place planks on either sides of the sticks so that the bottom two rows go: planks, stick, plank. All of the pieces need to be from the same type of wood. The above crafting recipe of four planks and two sticks will create three fence pieces

TL;DR in Russian:

Сделайте как минимум шесть деревянных досок из одной породы дерева. Скрафтите две палки. Скрафтите забор. Добавьте забор в свой инвентарь.


You'll need supplies that will allow you to cut and transport the firewood.  Gasoline-powered chainsaws are the cutting tool of choice, but it can also help to have a buck saw, Swede saw, and a razor-sharp axe. If you need to drive a wedge, use a sledgehammer and maul. Powered log splitters are very handy to have, as well, since they can save a lot of time and energy. A small business can use a pickup truck to transport firewood, but if you want to expand the business, you'll need a low-boy trailer. You can't cut down any tree you see. You'll need to get the firewood you sell from a legally acceptable source.  Trees on your own property are typically fine as long as there are no zoning laws prohibiting you from cutting them down. You can usually harvest marked trees from a national forest. Thin, dead, and dying trees on private forests, fence rows, and lots are usually okay, too. Purchase the excess wood usually discarded by sawmills. Offer to cut up and remove unwanted trees that fall after a storm. While not strictly necessary, treating your firewood will usually make it easier to legally ship firewood to a greater customer base. One of the simplest ways to treat firewood is simply to remove the outer layers. If you take this option, you'll have to remove both the bark and 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) of the wood beneath it, called the cambium layer. Another simple way to treat firewood for shipment out of the county or out of the state is to use a kiln drying treatment, which dries the wood out and kills off many forms or larvae.  The maximum allowable thickness of wood is usually around 3 inches (7.6 cm). Use steam, hot water, or a kiln to heat the wood to a minimum temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit (71.1 degrees Celsius). Maintain this temperature for at least 75 minutes. Store the prepared firewood in neatly stacked bundles and keep those bundles in a dry location.  Ideally, firewood should be elevated off the ground to prevent moisture from soaking in through the bottom. If you must store firewood outside,...

You'll need swimsuit fabric, a sewing machine, and fittings for the machine that can handle swimsuit fabric (special needles and feet are needed). You can buy a pattern or find a free one online, or you can cut up an old bath suit to make your own pattern. Cut the fabric out using your pattern. Be sure to leave in seam allowances. Depending on the style, you will need different numbers of pieces. For a one piece suit, two panels of fabric, plus gussets for the sides and crotch, are usually necessary. Hem the neck, arm holes, and leg holes. If making a one piece suit, leave the side seams unhemmed. These will be joined in the next step. Place the front and back panels right sides together and pin the side seams in place. Then, sew the panels together, also attaching them at the crotch. If using gussets, add these before sewing the side seams. You're done! Put on your new bathing suit and enjoy the sun!

You'll need the Antonius frame from IKEA for the main frame. It will be combined with one or two wire baskets and two of the plastic containers. Use the 50 liter (13.2 US gal) container for the fish tank at the bottom, and the 25 liter (6.6 US gal) container for the growbed at the top. Assemble all the parts based on the accompanying packaging instructions. If you can't find the frame at IKEA, ask around to see if friends have a spare one, or make a request on a site like Freecycle. It is not strictly necessary to have the 50 liter (13.2 US gal) plastic container fish tank at the bottom if you just put the container on the floor. You may want to trim the plastic lip on the top container to ensure a better fit; in this tutorial, the handles have been cut off the ends of the container as well. However, this is not strictly necessary. To cut the plastic, use a small saw or some standard wire pliers. The photo shows an example of a fish tank that has been decorated with a strip of PVC plastic sheet:

You'll need the file's location—also known as a "directory"—in order to tell Command Prompt where to look for the file.  You can find the file's directory by going to the file's location in File Explorer and then clicking the URL bar near the top of the File Explorer window. Most files will be somewhere in the following directory: [drive letter]:\Users\[username] (for example, "C:\Users\Kyle"). This is the directory in which almost every user-created file on your computer is located. A file on your desktop for the above example would be in the "C:\Users\Kyle\Desktop" directory, while a file in the Documents folder would be in the "C:\Users\Kyle\Documents" directory. If you want to copy your file, you'll need to know its name. Keep in mind that file names are case-sensitive in Command Prompt, so you'll need to include the proper capitalization. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. Doing so will search your computer for the Command Prompt program. It's at the top of the Start window. Doing so will open the Command Prompt program. Keep in mind that if you're on a shared computer (e.g., a school or public PC), you may not be able to access the Command Prompt.

You'll need the latest version of Snapchat in order to access the video chat features. The new video chat was introduced in version 9.27.0.0, released March 2016. You can check for updates using your device's app store. Video calls are not available in all areas. Video calls are placed directly from the chat screen. You can only make video calls to other Snapchat users.  You can open your recent conversations by swiping from left to right on the main Snapchat screen. Swipe a conversation from left to right to open it. You can also tap the "New Chat" button in the upper-right corner and then select the person you want to call. If you haven't done this before, you'll be warned that video calls will use mobile data if you aren't connected to a wireless network. The other person will be notified that you're calling them for a video chat. If they have notifications for Snapchat enabled, they'll be notified no matter what they're doing on their phone. If they don't have notifications enabled, they'll only see the call if they're currently using Snapchat. You may get a "Busy 😫" message, indicating that the other person is not available to receive video calls at the moment. The recipient will be able to either just watch your video, or join the conversation and share video as well. If you're receiving a video call, tap "Watch" to see the other person but not show yourself, "Join" to join the call and send video back, or "Ignore" to send a "Busy" message. You can switch between your front and rear cameras at any time during the chat. Tap your video to make it full screen, then tap the camera switch button in the upper-right corner. This will let you use your phone, but it won't hang up your call. Tap it again to resume full screen. This will not actually end the connection. You'll still be able to see and hear the other person until either they hang up or you close the chat. You can close the chat by switching to another Snapchat screen, switching apps, or closing Snapchat. You'll see a small circle appear while you...

You'll need the paid version of Adobe Acrobat for this, but you'll be able to save an entire web site, including every page on the server in its original format with working links. Enter in the lowest level address for the site if you want to grab the entire thing. If you just want a single page on the site, enter its direct address. You can choose to "Get only X level(s)", or you can "Get entire site". Level 1 is only the page that opens when the address is visited. Level 2 includes every page that is linked on the starting page. Level 3 includes all of the pages that are linked in the Level 2 pages. This can lead to a massive file depending on the website. When you start dealing with multiple levels, there's good chance that links will lead off the website. You can prevent Acrobat from grabbing these pages by selecting "Stay on same path", which will only grab pages from the same domain, or "Stay on same server", which will only grab pages from that web server. This allows you to adjust headers and footers, as well as bookmarks for navigation. Depending on how many levels you are capturing, and how large the site is, this could take anywhere from a few minutes to a very long time.

You'll need the special Android File Transfer software in order to connect your Android device to your Mac and browse the files. Visit android.com/filetransfer/ in Safari to open the download page. This will download the installation file to your Mac. The DMG file is only a few megabytes, so it should only take a moment or two to download, even on slower connections. You'll see both icons in the window that appears when you run the installer. From the desktop, click the "Go" menu and select "Applications." Click "Open" when prompted to run it. You'll only be prompted the first time after installing. Your screen will need to be unlocked in order for your Mac to access the Android's storage. The Android File Transfer window may jump to the front if your Android's settings are already correct. Swipe down from the top of your screen to open the panel that displays all of your notifications. This will allow you to select the USB mode for your device. Look for the USB logo in your list of notifications. This mode allows your Android to connect to your Mac as a USB storage device and open in Android File Transfer. The Android File Transfer window will display the folders on your device much like a Finder window. Once you're finished transferring and accessing files on your Android, simply unplug it to disconnect it from your Mac. Make sure you're not in the middle of any transfers when you unplug it.

You'll need tiles in two different colors. These should be 2x2" (or multiples of 2, such as 2x4" or 2x6"). You can buy these in sheets that you split up or you can buy them individually. Look for sample sheets or sale tiles to save money. You'll also need 1x2 lumber, 1/4" plywood, and glue. If you can only get 2x4" or 2x6" tiles, you'll also need a saw that can handle masonry. Talk to your local hardware store for advice. You'll need to cut a roughly 19x19" base from the 1/4" plywood. The size will depend on whether you are grouting your tiles or not. If your tiles are not already 2x2" square, then you'll want to cut them using an appropriate saw. If they are square but are apart of a sheet, you'll need to use a utility knife to cut them free. Measure and mark for the location of the squares on your base. Then, use grout or glue to secure the tiles to the wood. Let this set completely before continuing. Using a miter saw or miter box, cut and miter your frame (picture frame style) to fit around your tiles. You'll need to adjust the size, depending on whether or not you're using grout, but assuming that you are not then the inside measurement for the frame will need to be 16" and the outside will need to be 19". Paint or stain your frame, or finish it however you want to. Sanding first might help get a better look, depending on the wood you bought. Glue and then place your frame around the tiles. You can add any finishing touches that you want, like attaching shoe molding around the outer rim, in order to get a more finished look. Otherwise, enjoy your new chess board!

You'll need to be on an administrator account in order to open the Disk Partition tool, which is what you'll use to remove the write protection from your SD card. If your computer has an SD card reader, the card should slide label-up and gold connectors-first into the reader. If your PC doesn't have a card reader, you'll need a USB SD card adapter to do this. Click the Windows logo in the bottom-left corner of the screen. Type in command prompt, then click Command Prompt at the top of the Start menu when it appears. Type diskpart into Command Prompt, then press ↵ Enter. Doing so will confirm your decision and open the Disk Partition window, which resembles another Command Prompt window. Type in list disk and press ↵ Enter. You can find your SD card by looking for a number of megabytes or gigabytes that correlates with your SD card's storage in the "Size" column; the number to the right of "Disk" on the far-left side of this value is your SD card's number.  For example, if you see that the storage size for Disk 3 mirrors your SD card's remaining space, your SD card's number is "3". The top disk (Disk 0) will always be your computer's built-in hard drive. Type in select disk number where "number" is replaced by the SD card's number, then press ↵ Enter. This will tell the Disk Partition tool to apply the next command to your SD card. For example, if your SD card is labeled as "Disk 3" in the list of computer disks, you'd type select disk 3 here. Type in attributes disk clear readonly and press ↵ Enter. You should see a line of text that reads "Disk attributes cleared successfully" appear in the window below your cursor, signifying that your SD card is no longer write-protected.

You'll need to be version 9.25.0.0 or later of Snapchat in order to access the birthday Lens features. This update was released in February 2016. You can check for app updates using your device's app store. In order to be able to use the Birthday Lens on your birthday, you'll need to enter your birthday into the Snapchat settings.  Tap the Ghost at the top of the Snapchat screen. Tap the Gear button in the upper-right corner. This will open the Snapchat settings. Tap "Birthday" and enter your birthday. You can only change this a few times. The date you enter will be the date that your Birthday Lens is available. This will give you access to the Happy Birthday lens on your birthday, and will enable the birthday cake emoji next to your name on your birthday, allowing others to send you special birthday snaps. This will not reveal your age. After a moment, a wireframe outline will appear and the Lens selection will load.  Make sure your face is completely in the frame and that you are in a well-lit area. If the Lenses do not load, your device may not be able to use Lenses. This feature requires a newer device running the latest available system software. Older devices may be slow or may not work at all. If it's your birthday, the Birthday Lens should be the first one in the list. Make sure that you've entered the correct birthday if it isn't appearing. To send a Snap to a friend on their birthday using the special Happy Birthday Lens, you'll have to double-tap their name on your friends list. See the next section for details. When the Birthday Lens is selected, you'll see "Happy Birthday" in balloon letters at the bottom of the screen, and confetti will fall. You can tap the circle button to take a photo Snap, or press and hold to record a video Snap.

You'll need to burn a program called "DBAN", which will erase your hard drive for you, onto the DVD, so the DVD must be brand-new. Your computer will need to have a DVD drive for this to work. The easiest way to see if your computer has a DVD drive is by looking for the "DVD" logo on or near the disc tray. Go to https://dban.org/ and click Download DBAN in the top-right corner of the window. After a few seconds of waiting, the DBAN ISO file will begin downloading onto your computer. Depending on your browser's settings, you may have to confirm the download or select a save location before the file will actually download. Make sure that the DVD is label side-up. If your computer doesn't have a DVD drive, you'll need to attach an external DVD drive to your computer via USB instead. . Once you've done so, you can proceed. Make sure that the DBAN DVD remains in your computer. Open Start and click Power, then click Restart in the pop-up menu. Immediately after clicking Restart, begin repeatedly pressing your computer's BIOS key. This is usually Del or one of the "F" keys (e.g., F2), but you can confirm the key that you're supposed to press by checking your computer's documentation online. If you miss your opportunity to access the BIOS, you'll have to restart your computer and try again. On most computers, you must use the arrow keys to select the "Advanced" or "Boot" tab to do this. Some BIOS models have the boot order options on the initial page on which you arrive. It should be labeled "CD Drive" or "Disk Drive" (or something similar). Again, use the arrow keys to select the appropriate option. With the "CD Drive" option selected, press the + key until the selected option is at the top of the boot list. If this doesn't work, check the key legend on the right side (or bottom) of the screen to see which key you should press to move the selected option. For most BIOS pages, you'll press a key to do this; check the on-screen key legend to see which key you need to press. On some computers, you'll have to press...

You'll need to chop about ¼ of a head of red cabbage and put it in a blender. You will extract chemicals from the cabbage to coat your pH paper. These chemicals are known as anthocyanins and are found in plants such as cabbage, roses, and berries. Anthocyanins are purple under neutral conditions (pH 7.0) but they change color when exposed to an acid (pH < 7.0) or a base (pH>7.0).  The same procedure can be followed using berries, roses, and other anthocyanin containing plants. This does not work for green cabbage. The same anthocyanins are not present in green cabbage. You can boil the water on a stovetop or in the microwave, but either way you'll need about 500 mL of water. Pour the boiling water directly into the blender with the cabbage. This will help draw the needed chemicals out of the cabbage. You need to blend the water and cabbage for best results. Keep the mixture blending until the water is dark purple. This color change indicates that you have successfully drawn the needed chemicals (anthocyanins) from the cabbage and dissolved them in the hot water. You should allow the contents of the blender to cool for at least ten minutes before proceeding. You want to remove any pieces of cabbage from the indicator solution (colored water). Filter paper will work in place of a strainer, but may take more time. Once you have strained the indicator solution, you can throw away the cabbage pieces. Adding about 50 mL of isopropyl alcohol will protect your solution from bacterial growth. The alcohol may start to alter the color of your solution. If this happens, add vinegar until the solution goes back to dark purple. You can substitute ethanol for isopropyl alcohol, if necessary or desired. You want a container with a wide enough opening to dip your paper. You should choose a container that is stain-resistant, as you are pouring dyes into it. Ceramic and glass are good options. Make sure to push the paper all the way to the bottom. You want to cover all corners and edges of the paper. It is a good idea to use...

You'll need to confirm that the base of your lawn site will be a good fit for the sod you'll order. For about US$15.00 your local extension will send it to a lab for analysis. You can fix existing problems by grading, as you prepare for sod to arrive:  Avoid too much slope for your new lawn. The maximum slope is about twelve inches for every four feet.  If your slope is greater than that you might need to build a retaining wall. Use a hose to water the site for your new lawn.  Note areas where puddles have formed. Use a rake to fill in the low areas on your lawn with soil from the high spots. Be sure the finished grade is level with the areas surrounding your lawn site. If the soil test report suggests you need soil amendments, allow an additional 2 inches (5 cm) of depth to accommodate them. This will generally be a mix of two to three turf grasses, ordered from a sod farm or a garden center. Let the supplier know your lawn's sun conditions before placing the order. Measure the square-footage of your lawn carefully so that you can order the right amount of sod. It’s best to go over a bit to cover cutting around curves . . . about 5% over should do the trick. Two people could cover about a thousand square feet of sod in a day. If your yard is bigger, consider getting a little help from your friends to install the sod as quickly as possible. Lay the sod as follows:  Lay your first strip in the longest straight section of your yard. Keep off the sod during installation. Pat down the sod so that it’s flat against the soil beneath it. Lay the next row of sod.  Cut the sod in half first and lay it in a staggered design (as bricks are laid). Roll out each roll in the same direction. If rolled in different directions, your lawn will look uneven (at least at first), and the seams may be harder to lay with adjacent strips. Make sure the sections of sod are snug against each other, without overlapping. Continue this process for your whole lawn, cutting sections and staggering them as you lay them down. You can cut...

You'll need to dig deep enough to reach a stable surface beneath the topsoil, and often deeper to ensure the stones have solid support. Large installation projects may require an excavator, and a square shovel is always useful for creating the vertical walls.  For a driveway or other area with heavy car or machinery traffic, dig 7–9 inches (18–23 centimeters) deep, plus the height of the paving stones you'll be installing. For a walkway with only foot traffic, you only need to dig 4–5 inches (10–13 cm) deep, plus the height of the stones. Use crushed rock or gravel sized at about ¾ of an inch (1.9 cm). This will provide a base for the paving stones, and allow water to drain through. Rent or purchase a plate compactor, and use it to compact the gravel to make a stable, sturdy base. You may need to pour in the gravel in stages, as each compactor has a maximum depth that it can compact at one time.  The final layer should be 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) deep for areas with car or machinery traffic, or up to 12 in. (30 cm) in wet soil. Use a layer 3–4 inches (7.5–10 cm) deep for walkways. Some people install landscape fabric or geotextiles over the gravel at this stage. This helps prevent weed growth, and may help keep the base above it in place. However, other installers prefer to skip this step, as it is not a permanent weed solution and may lead to drainage problems in the long term. Pour in a 1 inch (2.5 cm) layer of sand to keep the paving stones in place. This sand is sold as "bedding sand" or "paver sand." Place a bubble level on top of a flat 2 x 4 or screed board. Scrape it over the surface of the sand, taking care to avoid stepping on the sand layer. The sand should be flat, but along a slight slope, between 1/4" (6mm) per foot (0.3m) and 1/2" (12mm) per foot (0.3 m).

You'll need to experiment with several colors of paint. For basic light skin, collect the following colors:  Red Yellow Blue White Use a mixing palette or whatever surface you have available. A good alternative to a mixing palette is a sturdy piece of cardboard. Create a blob of each color onto your palette. Using your brush, mix an equal portion of red, yellow, and blue. Clean your brush in a cup of water after gathering each color. Mix together the three primary colors to create the base. The result should look dark, but that is what you are aiming for. It is easier to lighten the tone. Have the prospective skin tone that you are trying to emulate nearby. Compare the base you've created with the tone you are shooting for. If you're using a photograph, be aware of the lighting from the photo. If you need to make adjustments to lighten your base, use a combination of yellow and white. White will simply lighten your base, and yellow will create a warmer tone. Add small portions of paint to the mixture. Fully mix the colors together before adding more. Use the same process of lightening the base, this time using red. If you've already achieved the desired color, skip this. Be aware of the red qualities in the skin tone you're looking at. Red will sometimes occur more sporadically in skin tones. Don't add too much, unless you're aiming to create a sun burn. Pay attention to the color you are trying to reach. Adjust in small increments. You might have to start over if you get the color too far off. If it gets too light, add red and blue bit by bit. Create multiple skin tones and use the most similar for your painting.

Подберите краски тех цветов, которые вам понадобятся. Смешайте эти цвета. Смешайте краски в равных количествах. Сравните оттенки. Осветлите оттенок. Добавьте красный цвет. Подкорректируйте оттенок.


You'll need to fill the sink up to create suction so that you can push out the obstruction. Fill the sink up about halfway so that there's enough water to fully submerge the plunger. Dip your plunger into the sink filled with water and press down on the bottom of your sink to remove all the air inside of it. Put a rag in the other sink's drain if you have a double sink to create a closed seal. Use the straight handle on the plunger to push up and down on it. The seal ensures that you force water, not air, down the drainpipe. This will dislodge any obstructions or food particles that are clogging up your sink. Keep towels around to clean up the water that spills. Finish cleaning your drainpipe by running hot water from the faucet. You can also flush the pipe with boiling water.

You'll need to find a convenient dry place to store your vodka if you'll be using it frequently. If you're considering long-term storage, the place you choose doesn't necessarily need to be convenient. Decide if you want to store the vodka along with other liquors or if you only need space to store a bottle or 2. Popular ways to store vodka include:  A shelf or cupboard in your kitchen A liquor cabinet A small or full bar When you've decided where to put the vodka, check to see if you can store the bottle so that it stands upright. If you have to store the vodka bottle on its side, it's more likely to leak so think about storing it somewhere else. If your bottle of vodka is stopped with a cork, it's even more important to store it upright. If the vodka is on its side and comes into contact with the cork for a long time, the alcohol can slowly eat away at the cork and cause your bottle to leak. Regardless of if you're storing the vodka for short-term or long-term use, you should store it at a consistent temperature. The temperature shouldn't fluctuate throughout the day from hot to cold. Instead, aim for a constant temperature of 60 to 65°F unless you want to store it in the freezer. If you want to store the vodka for the long term, the basement is a good choice (unless it's right next to a boiler). Avoid storing in extremely hot areas like attics. Although alcohol will actually freeze at very low temperatures, your home freezer won't be able to get that cold. You can store vodka in your freezer if you'd like chilled vodka for drinks. However, freezing the vodka may cause it to seem thicker, though the flavor shouldn't be affected. Vodka that's been chilled and slightly thickens may actually be better for drinking since it fully coats your mouth. This is especially important if it's in a clear bottle. Not only will sunlight speed up evaporation once the bottle is opened, but it can change the taste of the vodka if it's stored in sunlight for a very long time. For the best storage, keep your vodka in a dark...

Определитесь с тем, как вы хотите хранить водку. Постарайтесь хранить бутылку вертикально. Найдите место с постоянной температурой. Если вам нужна холодная водка, храните ее в морозильной камере. Примите во внимание освещение.


You'll need to find a long serial number, usually 17 digits, marked somewhere on your car or truck. It may be in one of several locations. You can read the wikihow article on how to Find Your VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) or look in the common locations listed below.  Look on the dash at the base of the windshield on the driver's side for a small plaque. Look for a sticker on the driver's door. A VIN may also be found in the front of the engine block, easily visible once you open the hood. On most newer vehicles, some body parts such as fenders and hoods also have the VIN on them for identification and matching parts to the vehicle. Open the driver-side door, and look at the where the side view mirror would be located if the door were shut. Older cars may have VINs found elsewhere, such as on the steering column, radiator support bracket, or the left-side inner wheel arch. You can find websites that can decode the VIN of most manufacturers automatically. Try VIN Decoder.net if you're looking for detailed, quickly accessible information.  You can try to find a VIN lookup on your car manufacturer's web site, but it's not guaranteed to have one. If your vehicle was manufactured before 1980, it might have a nonstandard VIN. If free lookup websites don't work, try a paid service such as CARFAX, AutoCheck, or VinAudit. These should give you a little information for free, but a full VIN decoding will cost money. Specialized VIN websites and VIN lookup services exist to see whether your vehicle was involved in an accident, fire, or other damaging situation. You cannot decode this information from a VIN yourself, since the VIN for a vehicle never changes. These services just take advantage of the fact that police and other organizations use the unique VIN to describe a car in accident reports.  First, try the free service at The National Insurance Crime Bureau website. If you cannot get information for free online, you may need to pay for a Vehicle History Report. This should be included in the VIN report...
