Computer programming is done as essentially a set of written instructions that the computer follows (also known as binary coding). These instructions can be written in several different "languages", or which are simply different ways of organizing the instructions and text. Different languages tend to be used to create different types of programs, however, so choose a language that you feel is relevant to what you want to do. If you decide that a language does not suit your needs, you can always move on to a new language. . These languages are mainly used for creating standalone computer applications such as games. C and C++ are difficult languages to learn for a beginner, but not impossible. Learning them will give you an in-depth understanding of not only programming (most programming languages inherit some concept or the other from C and C++) but also of how a computer works. They are popular and widely used, though C#, a language very similar to Java, is starting to become much more common. onsider Java or JavaScript. These are good languages to learn if you want to work on making web plugins (JavaScript) or mobile apps (Java). These languages are very much in demand right now, so they are handy to know. Keep in mind that Java and JavaScript are completely different languages, despite the similarity in names. . Python is a very versatile language used widely across several platforms. Despite being extremely powerful, it is an easy language for a beginner to pick up, so give it a try! . PHP stands for PHP: Hypertext Processor. It is a web programming language and relatively easy to learn due to its weak typing and popularity (popularity means there will be several useful tutorials on the language). It is a great language for server-side programming. There are tons of programming languages, all with varying uses. If you want to work as a programmer, you will need to know more than one, so learn as many as you can. Your best bet will be to look at ads for the sort of jobs you want to get and look for the...

Computers, smartphones, tablets, and consoles all need to be updated periodically, and failing to do so can result in a drop in Internet speed. Make sure that your items are up-to-date. Most items will alert you when an update is available. Avoiding updates is not recommended. When you have a slow Internet connection, you generally can't run more than one bandwidth-heavy service (e.g., Netflix, an online video game, YouTube, etc.) at a time; however, running several smaller bandwidth-using items can also be detrimental to your Internet's speed. Focus on one program at a time for optimal speed. When using smartphones or consoles, be sure to exit an app completely rather than just minimizing it. If the app is running in the background, it can still cause your Internet speed to decrease. While closing bandwidth-heavy programs on your computer will help improve your browser's performance, your Internet will continue to be slow if several other computers/smartphones/entertainment sources are actively connected to your network. You can diminish the number of other items with which you have to share your Internet by turning them off temporarily. Placing Internet-connected items in Airplane Mode will also fix this problem. Many modern routers include two bands: a 2.4 GHz band, which is the standard for wireless communication, and a 5 GHz band, which accommodates faster downloads and results in less interference. If your router has a 5 GHz band, switching to it will prevent interference from other Internet-connected items and nearby wireless connections.  You can usually switch to the 5 GHz band from within your item's Wi-Fi settings. Each router will have a different name for the 5 GHz band, so check your router's manual or online documentation. Not all routers have 5 GHz bands. If your router only has the standard 2.4 GHz band, skip this step. Since 5 GHz bands have less range than do 2.4 GHz bands, doing this will often require you to keep your Internet-connected items within 10 to 15 feet of the router. instead of...

Computers, televisions, cell phones, and other devices can make it harder for you to wind down and fall asleep. These devices can also affect the quality of your sleep. Try to turn off all of these devices at least 30 minutes before you plan to go to bed.  Avoid watching television in bed, reading in bed, or doing anything else that might activate your mind. Your bedroom activities should be limited to sleep and sex. Another strategy to use for your computer is using software that adjusts the light on your computer based upon the time of day. Dimming the lights in your bedroom will help to send the signal to your brain and body that it is time for sleep. Make sure that the lights in your home are turned down low about 30 minutes before bedtime.  It is best to make your room as dark as possible when you go to sleep, but you can have a dim light if needed. Try plugging in a night light or using a flameless candle to provide some soothing dim light in your bedroom. If your room gets a lot of light from outside sources, then you can try using light blocking curtains or wear a sleep mask. Music can help you to relax and start to drift off to sleep as well. If you have a hard time sleeping with music playing, then you might enjoy some white noise instead, such as some rain sounds or the sound of ocean waves crashing on a beach.  A fan or air purifier will also provide you with some soothing white noise. White noise helps to raise the sound threshold so that you will not be startled awake by normal ambient noises, such as a passing car or barking dog. A cool temperature is best for sleeping. Before you go to bed, adjust the temperature in your bedroom so that it is somewhat cool, around 60 to 67°F (15.5 to 19.4°C). You can experiment within this range to see what works best for you. If your bedroom gets hot in the summer, you can use a fan or air conditioning unit to cool down your room. Your pinched nerve pain might have you feeling anxious and stressed and this can make it hard to fall asleep. To help yourself...

Concentrate on the left-hand column and summary at the bottom. These contain the most important points you will need for your assignment or exam. You can underline or highlight the most important parts as you review, if you prefer. Cover the right side of the page (the note-taking column) with your hand or another sheet of paper. Quiz yourself by giving answers to the potential questions that you included in the left column. Then uncover the right side and check your comprehension. You can also ask a friend to quiz you on your notes using the left column, and you can do the same for them. Reviewing frequently over a longer period of time, rather than cramming before a test, will greatly increase your retention and deepen your understanding of course material. With your effective notes made using the Cornell system, you will be able to study efficiently and with minimal stress.

Concentrate on your breathing and how it feels in your body. If you find your mind wandering, acknowledge it and bring your attention back to your breathing.  Close your eyes. Inhale deeply through your nose for four to five seconds. Hold your breath for a comfortable amount of time (try to count to “7”). Exhale purposefully, controlling the rate of exhalation instead of letting all the air just rush out of your lungs. Try to exhale for a count of “8”. Repeat this sequence three times. Studies have shown that learning mindfulness meditation can significantly improve the quality of your sleep. Mindfulness focuses on accepting your experiences in the moment without judgment. These techniques can be especially helpful when you find your mind wandering.  Lie in bed. Prepare with your breathing exercises. Continue breathing deeply as you proceed. Check in with your thoughts. Just see what’s going on in your mind. Don’t try to “stop” thinking or resist your thoughts in any way. Accept their flow. Check in with your body. Focus your attention on where your body makes contact with the bed. Is your weight distributed evenly? Are there any places where you feel discomfort? Check in with your senses. What do you hear? What do you smell? What do you feel? Determine whether these sensory experiences are things you can change or things that are out of your control. If you can’t control the noise, acknowledge this. Return your attention to your body. Do a “scan” from head to toe. Observe any areas where you feel discomfort, tension, or tightness. When you notice tension, remind yourself that you will soon be asleep, and that rest will relax you. Also notice any areas where you feel pleasant or comfortable. Go through your thoughts, starting at the beginning of your day. Take about three minutes to review your day in a focused way. Allow yourself to “replay” the events, thoughts, and feelings of the day, but don’t get wrapped up in them. Acknowledge that each happened and then move to the next thought or event. Finally,...

Concentration is incredibly important for retaining your memory.You need to keep things simple. This is why you enter a room and forget why you came in. It's because you were probably planning your party at the same time, or thinking about the TV episode that you just watched and you weren't concentrating. When you're studying and trying to remember things for school, then focus on that one task.Don't think about that friend's party from the weekend. Don't try to do a bunch of different tasks at the same time, or you won't get the full benefit from any of them. Get away from your typical surroundings that make demands on your time, when you need to study. This means leaving your house, your family, your friends, your pets, your TV while you're studying.  Find a specific place to study and don't do other things while you're there (like pay your bills, do leisure activities, etc.). Make sure that you only study when you're in that place, as it will help your brain get into the studying mode. Choose an area that has good ventilation and light so that you are more likely to stay awake and not get distracted. If you do find that you can't work and that you're not retaining anything, take a short break (not too long and don't do anything that will start consuming your time like going on the internet). Go for a short walk, or get a drink. Sometimes the distractions don't come from your friends or family, but come from your own brain. Often when you're reading something for school you find that your brain hasn't been on the material, but instead has been thinking about that party you're going to or wondering whether you've paid your electricity bill.  Keep a specific notebook for these distracting thoughts. If it's a thought that requires later attention (like paying your electricity bill), jot that thought down and dismiss it from your mind so you can work. Make the distraction a reward. Tell yourself that once you have finished reading (and understanding and remembering) this next section, you'll take a break to...

Concentration meditation is the foundation of all the other types of meditation. Meditation works best when you strengthen your concentration to the point of cutting out all distractions, or intense focus on nothingness. Reaching this level allows your mind to be calm and to move beyond your sense of self. Once attained, you can use it for wellness and a positive outlook.  One of the methods to practice this type of mediation is to concentrate on a single object like an image, sound, or even your own breath. By consistently returning to focus on the object, the mind develops the capacity to remain calm. Different types of popular concentration meditations are transcendental, zen, om, shine or Samadhi, and chakra meditation. Reflective meditation, or analytical meditation, stimulates the power of dramatic change by providing you with great conviction and strength to reorder your life ways. This type of meditation requires “disciplined thinking.” In this case, a question, theme, or topic is chosen to contemplate for analysis. It is okay to let your mind wander for a short time, but it is vital that you bring your thought back to the reflection to make your mind stronger.  It would be a good idea to master concentration meditation first since this type requires a higher degree of concentration and contemplation. Typical questions you can focus on are: “Who am I?” “What is the true purpose of my life?” “What is my role in the universe?” or “How can I help remove the suffering of others?” Mindfulness mediation is a combination of concentration and open awareness. It emphasizes the cultivation of highly receptive attention toward any object or action within your sphere of influence. It is simply being “mindful,” or “paying attention” to your surroundings. Practitioners claim the benefits provide pain relief and helps support sufferers of anxiety and depression.  This is the most popular meditation type in the Western Hemisphere. You practice this meditation type by concentrating on an object such as breath,...

Concoct a mixture of two parts white vinegar, and one part water (cold or warm). Pour the mixture onto the stain, and let it soak overnight. Then, wash your garment as you normally would. Some people can't stand the smell of vinegar. If that's the case for you, skip ahead to one of the following options below. Create a paste out of baking soda and warm water. Use just enough baking soda and water to make a paste-like texture. Then, get an clean toothbrush and firmly apply the paste to the area. Gently scrub back and forth, then let the stain sit for a few hours. Finally, rinse the stain. Put them in a cup. Then, add about two tablespoons of water until the mixture becomes paste-like. Apply it onto the stain, and let it sit for an hour. Rinse the stained part of the garment. Lightly sprinkle salt onto the stain. Then squeeze some lemon juice onto the stain until it's saturated. Rub the stain until it's gone, and then launder your jeans.  This is a great preventative measure as well. You could use the mixture on shirts you know you'll sweat in (like gym shirts). Keep in mind that lemon juice might lighten your jeans' color.

Concrete is mixed by adding together Portland cement, sand, and coarse aggregate (gravel) together in a ratio of 1:2:4. Water is added to the dry mixture to bind all the components together. In a concrete mixer, add the determined amount of water and then the concrete mix. You can also mix this in a wheelbarrow with a shovel. Use as little water as possible. Water makes the concrete more maneuverable but it also weakens the constitution of the final product. A drier mix makes the concrete more crack resistant. Turn on the machine. The mix will become smooth and consistent. Shut off the machine. You can sometimes get a truck to pour concrete straight into your form; otherwise, load it into wheelbarrows and tilt them into the form until the high point is reached. While doing this, enlist some helpers to spread out the concrete with shovels, rakes and "come alongs," which is a special concrete rake. Starting at the uphill point, use a screeding tool to flatten out the wet concrete. Screeding involves jiggling a wide plank of wood back and forth, if possible immediately over the forms, to create a flat surface. Work your way from top to bottom, gently screeding until you have a flat surface. Your concrete surface won't be finished yet, but it will begin to look more complete and professional looking at this point. At this point, you should move fairly quickly as the concrete will set fast. Your floating process will contain two steps:  Use a large floating device, also known as a bull float, to press down aggregate and help the cream (gravel-free concrete) rise to the surface. Do this by moving the bull float away from you, keeping the tailing edge slightly elevated, and then moving the bull float back towards you, keeping the leading edge slightly elevated. Use a magnesium hand float to go over the surface. After some of the water bleeds to the surface, use long sweeping motions with your hand float. Line up a plank as a straight edge to make periodic joints in the concrete. These joints will help the concrete...

Подготовьте бетонную смесь. Вылейте бетон в опалубку. Разровняйте верхушку бетонной кучи. Загладьте разровненную поверхность. Делайте бороздоделом деформационные швы каждые 1,5–1,8 м. Создайте сцепление. Дайте бетону затвердеть и обработайте его герметиком. Следите за бетоном.


Concrete's volume (the amount of physical space it takes up) is typically measured in either cubic yards (yds3) or cubic meters (m3). A cubic yard is a 3-dimensional cube that is 3 feet long in each dimension, while a cubic meter is a cube that is 1 meter long in each dimension. Typically, bags of dry concrete mix will specify the volume of "wet" concrete each bag will make when properly mixed with water. Below are rough estimates for how many bags of dry concrete mix it takes to make one cubic meter of wet concrete: 40 kg bag: 56 bags to make 1 cubic meter 32 kg bag: 71 " " " 1 cubic meter 26 kg bag: 86 " " " 1 cubic meter Compared to other 3-D shapes, a rectangular prism's volume is relatively easy to calculate, so, if possible, it is best to break your entire project up into one or more rectangular prisms. For example, if your project calls for you to pour a single rectangular slab-on-grade, that slab would be your only prism. However, if you need to pour a slab along with 4 straight walls, each wall would be its own prism, resulting in a total of 5 prisms. A rectangular prism is a three-dimensional shape with six faces, all of which are rectangles; opposite faces in a rectangular prism are parallel to each other. In layman's terms, a rectangular prism can be thought of as any "boxy" shape with straight edges. A rectangular prism's volume can be found by multiplying its length times its width times its height. For example, in the next few steps, let's imagine that we're pouring a slab that is 10 feet (3.05 m) long, 12 feet wide (3.66 m), and 4 inches (10.16 cm) deep. Our slab's length and width are given in feet and meters, but its height is given in inches and centimeters. For our volume equation to work, all measurements must be in the same units, so we must convert. Since there are 12 inches per foot, we should divide our inch value by 12 to get a value for feet. The slab is 4 / 12 = 0.33 feet deep. To convert from centimeters to meters, simply divide a centimeter value by 100. A slab that is 10.16 cm...

Condensed milk is typically sold in non-refrigerated cans. For this recipe, you want make sure the milk is good and cold before mixing your ingredients. Place it in the fridge for a few hours before you get started. Take the heavy cream out of the refrigerator and get to work immediately, since you want to make sure your ingredients are very cold when you mix them together. Start by beating the cream at a medium speed using a whisk attachment. Continue beating until stiff peaks form. If you don’t have a stand mixer, a hand mixer will work fine. Once your stiff peaks have started to form, take the chilled condensed milk out of the fridge. Turn the mixer speed down to low and slowly pour the condensed milk in with the cream. Add the vanilla extract. After the additional ingredients have been added, turn the mixer back up to medium speed. Keep beating the mixture until it thickens and stiff peaks begin to form again. The peaks will be much thicker this time around. If you like your vanilla ice cream with additional flavors and additives, now is the time to add them! You can add anything you want, so experiment and have fun. Try adding crushed cookies, fruit purees, nuts, cake pieces, chocolate syrup and more to create your own custom flavor. Stir the mixture well to fully incorporate your add-ins.  For example, to make strawberry cheesecake ice cream, add 1 cup of cheesecake and your desired amount of strawberry puree. Mix in 2/3 cup crushed Oreos to make cookies and cream ice cream. Add 1/4 cup mango puree for a fruity mango ice cream. Transfer your ice cream mixture into a large freezer-safe container that can be resealed (like Tupperware). Put it in the freezer for at least 6 hours, or overnight. After 6 hours, your ice cream is ready to be enjoyed.

Conditioner makes hair smooth and silky, but when you're trying to hold curls, you want a rougher, dryer texture. If your hair is too slippery, it won't hold curl. When you wash your hair, rinse out the shampoo and skip the conditioner altogether. This product is actually made for people with curly hair, but it works great for straight-haired people who want to add curl, too. Use a dime or quarter-sized amount, depending on the length of your hair. Comb it through your hair from the roots to the tips to distribute the product evenly. If you don't have curl cream, you can use gel or mousse instead. Don't add too much product to your hair, since you could end up weighing it down. Too much product will cause the curls to fall out instead of staying in place. There are many methods used to curl wet hair without using any type of heat. You can have shiny, glossy, well-shaped curls or waves without using a curling iron; you just need some extra time. Try one of these popular methods to get the look you want:   Create pin curls  Make sock bun curls  Curl hair with an old t-shirt No matter which curling method you use, the secret is to let your hair completely dry. You can help it along by blowing the pinned-up curls with a blow dryer. Alternatively, sleep on the curls and let them dry overnight. Unpin one curl to test and see if they're dry. If the curl is still wet inside, pin it back up and wait few more hours, then try again. Remove the pins, t-shirt-strips or socks that helped you curl your hair, and let your curls down gently. Avoid combing or brushing them, since this can cause them to fall out right away. Use a medium or strong-hold spray to finish the look and hold your curls in place for the rest of the day. Remember to avoid touching your hair too much, since puling on the curls can make them fall out faster.

Condoms can become brittle and more likely to break if you don’t store them correctly. Condoms that are exposed to heat or light are more likely to tear.  Don’t keep condoms in your back pocket, wallet, or glovebox. If you think you may get lucky, put a couple in your wallet or car right before you hit the town. Don’t leave them there for days or weeks. Store condoms in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Keep condoms in their wrappers until you’re ready to use them. Push the condom away from the edge you plan to tear, and use the easy-tear edges. These are the zig-zag edges on either side of the wrapper that are designed to tear apart quickly and easily.  Don't get carried away in your passion. Don't shred open the foil, and stay away from scissors, teeth, machetes, or any other sharp instrument to open a condom wrapper, or you could tear the condom itself! A torn condom won’t protect against pregnancy or STDs.  If it's your last condom and you destroy it, party's over! This reservoir should already be on the outer tip of the condom, but it can sometimes become inverted during packaging. Make sure the reservoir is oriented so that the rest of the condom rolls away from it. Consider placing a small drop of water-based lubricant inside the reservoir. This can make the condom easier to apply, especially if you are uncircumcised. Make sure this is a very small drop, as you don’t want to compete with the sperm for space inside the reservoir tip.  Do not apply lotion, baby oil, petroleum jelly, or oil-based lube, as it will degrade and weaken the latex. A condom should always fit snugly over a penis, leaving no tight or baggy spots. If rolled over a penis that is not yet fully erect, it will fit awkwardly and be more likely to fall off or tear during sex. The condom should go from the package to your genitals relatively quickly. Don't unwrap the condom until you are fully erect and ready to use it. Never try to reuse a condom. This eliminates the possibility of creating an air pocket inside the condom...

Conduct disorder is the young-age counterpart of antisocial personality disorder; essentially, conduct disorder is antisocial personality disorder for children. It is indicated by bullying behavior, disregard for life (mistreating animals), anger and authority problems, inability to show/feel remorse, and general poor or criminal conduct.  These conduct problems often appear early and are developed by age 10.  Most psychologists and psychiatrists consider conduct disorder to be a top predictor of a future diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder. Conduct disorder involves behavior that intentionally inflicts harm on others, including aggression towards other children, adults, and animals.  It is behavior that is repeated or developed over time, rather than isolated to a single event.  The following behaviors may indicate conduct disorder:   Pyromania (obsession with fire) Prolonged bed wetting Animal cruelty Bullying Property destruction Theft Neither conduct disorder nor antisocial personality disorder are easily treated with psychotherapy.  Treatment is complicated by the commonality of co-morbidity, which is the tendency of conduct disorder to coincide with other disorders such as substance abuse problems, mood disorders, or psychopathy.  This co-morbidity makes the treatment of these individuals increasingly complex, necessitating the involvement of psychotherapy, medication, and other approaches.  The effectiveness of even a multifaceted approach may vary based on the severity of the individual case.  More severe cases are less likely than milder cases to respond successfully to treatment. Children suffering from ODD challenge authority, but they feel responsible for the consequences of their actions. They often challenge adults, break rules, and blame others for their problems. ODD can be treated successfully with psychotherapy and medication. This treatment often includes involving parents in family cognitive behavioral therapy and giving the child social skills training. It is possible for conduct...

Conduct research about your target market. You can look up information online or at a library, or you can conduct your own experiments by polling members of your target market or giving them samples to try to review. Make sure to consider what your target market should be. Certain demographics to consider include age, gender, education level, location, interests, ethnicity, and sexual orientation. Once you have some feedback about your product and more information about your target market, make any changes that seem appropriate to perfect it for your market. Remember that while you will get widely differing opinions, if there are common criticisms of your product, they are probably correct and should be addressed. Think about how much money you will have to market your product in the beginning. This will determine what type of marketing you do and sometimes what strategy you use. You will need to determine how much of your product at what price will need to sell in order to keep your business afloat. This is very, very important. Balancing this will be tricky and it may take some time to figure out the right formula. This is when you will need to write out and specify your sales timeline, target market needs, priorities, objectives, challenges, how you will acquire new business, and how you will grow your existing business. A sales plan will be necessary if you want investors to consider your product. There are a number of different ways you can market your product, or different approaches in who you market to and what aspect of people you appeal to in your marketing. These strategies can bring you widely different customers or they can help you soar with a specific set of people.  Consider a concentrated marketing strategy. This is when your marketing appeals to and is targeted at only your target market. This is commonly seen with luxury items, which get marketed to very specific parts of a population, but can also be seen in other areas as well. Think Teen Magazine. Consider an undifferentiated marketing...

Conduct research and talk to other people in your field to narrow your search down to the areas you're most likely to find a job. If you conduct a nationwide search, you'll have less time to research each job and will find it difficult to demonstrate a serious desire to relocate to each employer.  If you already know the exact location you'll be moving to, research other cities within commuting distance as well. Try to estimate your chances realistically. If you have little work experience or lack a qualification many people in your field hold such as an advanced degree, don't assume you'll be able to get a job in a competitive area, especially before you move there. Once you've narrowed down your list to a few locations, find out everything you can about each one. You'll avoid wasted time if you find out you don't want to move there, and your knowledge of the area will demonstrate seriousness to a potential employer when you get an interview.  Consider factors unrelated to your career, such as weather, housing prices, and demographics. Research local schools if you have children. If you discover a dream job outside the areas you were considering, try to conduct your research objectively before jumping on the chance to apply. Search online for job mailing lists in the area you'd like to move to. Sign up for national mailing lists for your profession as well, especially if there are multiple locations you could move to. Ask the mailing list owner whether you can send out a request for people familiar with the target area to contact you. Ask your colleagues and business contacts whether they know anyone there. Post on social media to see if any of your friends are familiar with the region or know someone who lives there. Networking is one of the most important steps for finding any type of job, but getting a contact to recommend you greatly increases the chance that an out of state company will take you seriously.

Your plans and goals will be accomplished in the best possible manner if you line them up well with his or her needs. You can gain an edge by learning how you can help him or her succeed and how you can collaborate. Get information about what they want, what their approach is towards routine work and assignments, and how you can go the extra mile to exceed expectations. Your early conversations with your manager should focus on creating a plan for your first 90 days at work, and track those goals on a monthly basis.  You should clearly state what you intend to accomplish in those first three months. Your plan should also reflect your interactions with your teammates. For example, you should include a goal of maintaining focused listening to earn your coworkers' trust and demonstrate that you are a 100% committed team player. This will ensure that you are accepted gladly and warmly. Your career-related goals should be set in collaboration with your boss, so that you can find common ground with him or her.  Get your goals reviewed by your boss so that you get their stamp of approval. Your boss can also let you know which goals require slight modification in light of your job duties and the organization’s culture. You should set a reasonable bar of accomplishment that is neither too high nor too low.

TL;DR in Russian:

Проведите информационную беседу со своим боссом. Разработайте 30/60/90- дневный план достижения успеха. Поставьте перед собой реалистичные задачи.


Confidence comes from having a well developed sense of self and a grounded sense of stability. In specific terms this means not bragging about your successes and being unwavering in your commitment to overcome personal fears and obstacles:  Accept yourself. You do not owe explanations for who you are and how you behave in the world. People will not acknowledge you if you have not already learned to accept yourself. This means that you have faced your dark emotions and thoughts, have processed them, reached your own conclusions and have a purpose and ambitious path in life. Ambitious can mean different things for different people, but women admire guys who know where they are going and actively work each day to move closer to what they want. Confidence and arrogance are two different things. Confidence is inner strength, while arrogance is an outer display of overconfidence and an unhealthy obsession with an individual's persona. The arrogant man spends all his energy persuading others that he is always right and can do no wrong. The confident man does not involve himself in such behavior. He knows he is not perfect. You have to want to keep yourself clean and your body lean. Outside influences cannot do this for you. Change and sexual power comes from within. The sexiest thing a guy can do is to understand what he wants, who he is, and where he currently stands in relation to where he wants to be. Next, work hard to get there.

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте уверены в себе. Станьте самой сексуальной версией себя самого.


Confidence is attractive, so think positive thoughts about yourself. Tell yourself, “I've got this! I'm fun, easy to talk to, and a great person.” The more comfortable you are in your own skin, the more at ease you’ll be when you talk to the girl you like.  Additionally, keeping your cool will set the tone; she might get uncomfortable if you’re nervous and jittery. To relax before starting a conversation with the girl you like, try taking slow, deep breaths for a few minutes while imagining calming scenery. A joke can be a great way to break the ice, but you don’t want to be cheesy. If you’re not confident about your comedic timing, you could also just make an observation or ask a question. Just make sure whatever you say is open-ended, or invites a response from her.  For instance, you could say, “So how about our math homework last night? It was so long, I thought the problems would never end!” or just ask, “Hey! How’s your day going?” If you don’t already know her that well, introduce yourself. Say something like, “Hey, how are you? I’m Sam—I’m in your history class. What do you think of Mr. Jones going off on Tyler like that yesterday?” Think of a compliment that focuses on a quality you admire, like her sense of humor, style, or intelligence. Thoughtful compliments like these will probably make her feel more special than just saying something about her looks or body.  For example, say, “I saw the school play last week, and you did a great job! You have a gorgeous voice,” or “Congrats on acing another test! You’re so smart!” If you do want to compliment her looks, keep it respectful. Try telling her, “You have really beautiful eyes,” or simply say, “You look really nice.” You don’t want to lose her interest or make things awkward, so try to keep the conversation flowing. It might be helpful to think of topics to talk about ahead of time. Asking questions that prompt more than a simple “Yes” or “No” can also help keep the conversation going.  If you need to fill an awkward pause, try asking questions like...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поверьте в свои силы и ведите себя естественно. Начните разговор с шутки или открытого вопроса. Сделайте вдумчивый комплимент. Избегайте неловких пауз. Не напирайте слишком сильно. Намекайте на свои чувства.


Confidence is one of the most attractive qualities a person can possess. You don't have to be super sexy or built like Chris Hemsworth, either. All confidence requires is a firm belief in your own self-worth. If you believe it, that girl you like? She's going to believe it, too.  It takes time and a little effort to build your confidence, especially if you're starting from a low point. Even if you don't believe in yourself, pretend like you do. Faking confidence actually tricks your brain into believing that you are confident!  Stand up straight when you're walking, like you matter. Take up space like crossing your ankle across your knee when you're sitting. Leaning nonchalantly against a nearby surface. Avoid crossing your arms across your chest, or not making eye contact when you talk to people. Both of these are defensive gestures. Part of being confident is being yourself and being okay with who that is. Trying to change yourself to be someone else isn't going to work with her. She's going to see that you're not comfortable with yourself and that you're lying about who you are and she won't be pleased.  Show what makes you unique and why you're interesting. You don't have to walk around wearing a pocket protector (do people do that anymore?), but you don't have to hide that you're interested in computers. She will accept you and if she doesn't.. she's probably not worth your time! Don't try to be someone else, especially if you're trying to be the person you think she wants. If she isn't interested in the person you are, she's not the girl for you. It's hard to attract the girl that you like when you overwhelm her with your smell and your greasy hair. Try to shower at least a couple times a week and use soap. Wear clothes that have been recently laundered. Reusing jeans and trousers is fine, as long as they aren't super dirty, but change your shirt each day.  Be careful about using aftershave or cologne. A little goes a long way! You don't want to approach the girl you like in a cloud of cologne. Keep it...

TL;DR in Russian:

Работайте над уверенностью в себе. Будьте собой. Следите за собой. Ведите активную жизнь.


Confidence is the backbone of being sexy and appealing. Have confidence in everything that you do. It shows a high level of self-esteem and demands a certain level of respect from onlookers.  Don’t be quiet. If you’re a quiet person, you don’t have to lose yourself and become an extreme extrovert. But don’t let being quiet dull your shine. Gain sex appeal by staying engaged in conversation, even if it’s only a couple words at a time. Always dress for the occasion. Even if you’re running errands, put on an outfit that makes you feel great. The better you feel about yourself, the sexier you appear. Try something new, meet new people, and continue to grow. All of these experiences will teach you what you like and don’t like and make your more comfortable with yourself and that makes it easier to be confident. Having sex appeal means you have a fun, delightful, delicious manner about yourself. Add some surprise into this and you’ll have ultimate irresistibility. Knowledge is power; power is sexy. If you’re always staying engaged, you’re always going to be learning. The more you know, the more confident you’ll be—about yourself, your job, your hobbies, or anything else.  Always ask questions. This can get you noticed. Whether it’s in a work meeting, group outing, or new class, attention will be on you if you ask a question confidently. Don’t get complacent. This stands for every aspect of your life. If you stop challenging yourself, you’ll stop growing. Someone continually moving forward with life attracts other people who are doing the same. Not only is working out going to make you look better, but it will make you feel better immediately. Even if you’re tired, working out will give you more energy, so get to the gym as often as you can.  Have a good body image. A good body image portrays confidence. You don’t have to be a model to be sexy. Know that your body is healthy, take care of it, and own it. Endorphins keep you engaged. Endorphins are released when you exercise, they give you more energy and high energy...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выражайте уверенность во всех делах. Ведите себя спонтанно. Демонстрируйте, что вам нравится учиться. Запишитесь в тренажерный зал. Заводите новых друзей.


Confidence, like many things, is a skill that can be learned. Even if you don't start off feeling confident, the more you practice, the better you'll get and the happier you'll feel. Think positively about your life. When faced with an obstacle, tell yourself that you can overcome it.  Even if you’re not feeling confident, try acting confident with body language. Stand up straight while you're walking or sitting. Avoid standing with your arms crossed. Instead, put your hands on your hips. Just smiling, even if you force it, can help you feel instantly happier and more confident, as your brain releases endorphins.   Stop negative thinking. Every time you start having negative thoughts about yourself, stop yourself and re-frame the thought into a positive or neutral one. For example, if you find yourself thinking "I am so worthless,” think instead, “I am really valuable to myself and others.” Never stop educating yourself throughout your life. It will keep your brain sharp, lower your risk for diseases like Alzheimer's, and give you interesting things to discuss with other people. Start with subjects that are interesting to you, such as video game design or historical costuming.  Educate yourself about what is happening in the world: advances in science, medicine, politics, art, and current events. This keeps you in touch with what is going on. Try to learn a new skill, such as knitting, speaking a foreign language, or understanding astrophysics. Reading books and articles, watching the news and documentaries, or doing online tutorials are all great ways to keep learning. No matter how successful you are, no matter how healthy you are, no matter what you do or don't do, you're going to make mistakes and experience failure. Sometimes these incidents will be your fault, sometimes they won't. It's how you respond to them that will determine your ability to be successful at life.  Your attitude toward life shapes how you experience things. Let go of your expectations and accept life as it is. This will empower you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Тренируйте  уверенный образ мыслей. Не прекращайте учиться. Учитесь на своих ошибках. Выходите из зоны комфорта. Следуйте увлечениям и найдите призвание, которое поможет вам реализовать себя. Старайтесь ежедневно выражать благодарность.  Практикуйте осознанность Принимайте последствия своих действий.


Configure your coals into a two-zone fire. This means that you will cast your coals to cover about half of the grill to produce medium to high-temperature zones. You can use any coals for grilling. Self-lighting coals are generally easier to work with. If your coals call for lighter fluid, carefully squirt lighter fluid on the top and sides of the charcoal mound. Squirt the lighter fluid gently and wait a minute or two for the fluid to sink into the coals. This will prevent all the lighter fluid from burning off immediately. After waiting a minute, squirt a second layer, followed by a third before lighting your coals. Avoid squirting lots of lighter fluid into your coals during each application. Less fluid is better than more. Lighter fluid can add a chemical taste to your burgers if you use too much. It doesn’t take a lot of lighter fluid to get your fire going. You will only need about 1.6 ounces of lighter fluid per pound of charcoal. Toasting buns is quick and easy. Simply split your buns open and place them on the grill with the cut side down. Make sure to place them on the cooler side of the grill to keep them from burning or cooking too quickly. Grill your buns for about 10 seconds and flip if desired..  You can lightly butter the inside of your buns before toasting if you'd like. Watch the buns closely as they can burn easily. Take your burgers off the grill as soon as they are done to avoid overcooking. Remember that they will cook a little bit after they are taken from the grill. Serve your burgers with a variety of condiments

Confirm that you're using monophasic pills and that you already have the next pack. Make sure that you can discern between the active pills (which suppress your period) and the placebo pills (which trigger a week of withdrawal bleeding). Use a calendar to chart out your birth control schedule for the weeks leading up to the period that you want to skip.  Monophasic pills cause less spotting than multiphasic pills, making them better suited to skipping periods. However, you can still skip a period using multiphasic pills. Ask your gynecologist about which pills you can skip in order to miss your period.  If you aren't already on a birth control program, speak to your gynecologist about starting. Only take birth control pills that you've been prescribed by a licensed physician. If you are taking monophasic pills, then you just need to take the same pill every day. If you are using multiphasic pills, then you'll need to be careful to keep to the schedule. If you aren't sure, ask your gynecologist for advice on how to proceed. If your birth control is packaged with a "period week" of placebo pills, feel free to discard the placebos. They are sugar pills, and you won't need them if you are going to skip your "period." Skip the placebo pills. Begin the next month's birth control packet immediately at the end of the regular three-week regimen. Make sure that you are ready with the new pills as the three-week mark approaches!  Remember: if you're taking birth control, you are not actually getting your period on the fourth "placebo" week of the month. The bleeding that occurs is "withdrawal bleeding" as your body responds to stopping the hormones. Withdrawal bleeding does not pose a serious risk to your health and skipping withdrawal bleeding does not affect your health. It is safe to skip your period indefinitely using hormonal birth control. You may experience minimal spotting. However, this should not last more than a day. Monophasic pills are more stable than multiphasic pills, and thus less likely to trigger...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте таблетки. Принимайте таблетки согласно инструкции в течение трех недель. Начните новую упаковку активных таблеток. Перестаньте принимать таблетки, чтобы прошла менструация.


Conflict starts long before a fight develops. Positive and assertive interaction with the group may off-set any violence. Do your best to minimize conflict by being good-natured, not picking arguments with volatile people you don't know very well, or making off-color comments that could deeply offend the people around you. . Unless you are a skilled fighter or are in a situation where you cannot escape, your best bet is to run away, fast. Head to somewhere public and call for help. Running is also likely to separate your attackers, making it more likely to be able to confront them individually. Be extra careful when you're running so you avoid getting surrounded or running right in to a trap.

TL;DR in Russian:

Остановите или предотвратите драку до ее начала. Если есть возможность — бегите.


Confrontation makes shy guys nervous. Not only will he deny that he’s interested, but he’ll probably also begin avoiding you afterwards out of embarrassment. Always use subtle techniques when interacting with a shy guy. Shy guys’ top priority is secrecy.  If a shy guy likes you, it’s extremely likely that he hasn’t told anyone and doesn’t intend to.  Asking his friends has a very serious downside: You may be given bad information about whether or not he likes you. Because he's shy and doesn't express his feelings often, you might get the idea that he's not interested when he actually is. Asking his friends also has the downside of putting the ball in his court. When he knows — or guesses — that you like him, he's going to think that you want him to ask you out. This makes him feel pressured. As frustrating as it may be, you're going to have to do a lot of the work here, helping him feel relaxed along the way. Shy guys’ behavior can be so strange that it might not make sense on its own. Instead of only analyzing his behavior when he’s around you, compare it to how he acts around others. Remember, guys are guys - they will act like guys around their friends, but when it comes to just the two of you talking, he will think before he speaks, tend to be nicer, and will find a way to make you laugh. Look for anything he does extra around you – whether it’s good or bad. Is he extra nice? Extra quiet? Extra nervous? Extra irritable? If he treats you differently than everyone else, he definitely has strong feelings of some sort for you. Does he get really quiet around you? His inability to talk might be nervousness: He's got a crush on you, and he's so afraid of saying something weird or stupid that he's told himself it's better just not to talk when you're around. . However, instead of looking for the usual flirting behavior (ex. getting near you, touching you, and other look-at-me body language), watch for signs that he’s uncomfortable around you. If he looks down, crosses his arms, avoids eye contact, or makes...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не спрашивайте его прямо о том, нравитесь ли вы ему. Не спрашивайте его друзей о том, нравитесь ли вы ему. Сравните его поведение по отношению к вам с поведением по отношению к другим людям. Читайте язык тела Попытайтесь поймать на себе его взгляд. Обратите внимание на то, как он разговаривает с вами. Понаблюдайте, дружен ли он с вашими друзьями.


Confronting the person won’t work if you’re angry and aggressive.  If you feel upset or frazzled by a rude comment the person said to you, take a few deep breaths before approaching them. The more flustered you look, the less they will listen to what you have to say. Spend a moment thinking carefully about what you will say beforehand instead of impulsively yelling at the person. They will be less likely to argue back if you show that their rude comment has not fazed you. Being the bigger person means that you are confident and in control of your emotions. Don't engage them in any sort of physical fight or argument - this will also only worsen the situation. If you’re worried you might lash out, have a friend with you to keep you in check. Avoid beating around the bush or being passive-aggressive. Face them square on, make eye contact, and cut straight to chase about what it is they did that upset you. They can’t learn from their mistake if they don’t know what they did. If someone cuts in front of you in line at the grocery store, don’t let out a dramatic sigh and roll your eyes hoping that they will notice. Address them directly by saying, “Excuse me, but I think I was in front of you in line” or “I’m sorry, but the line starts back there.” If you feel uncomfortable directly calling someone out on their rudeness in a serious way, incorporate humor to diffuse the tension.  If someone is loudly munching on their sandwich and making a mess next to you on the subway, smile and casually say something like, “Wow, you’re really enjoying that, aren’t you?” with a laugh. If they don’t get the point, follow up with, “Would you mind chewing a little less loudly?” Make sure your humor is light-hearted and not passive-aggressive or sarcastic. Stay friendly and smile. You want your comment to come off as a joke that the both of you can laugh about, not a sassy comment that fires off an argument. The best way to fight rudeness is with kindness. Be the bigger person and don’t stoop down to their level by being rude in...

TL;DR in Russian:

Сохраняйте спокойствие. Говорите прямо. Используйте юмор. Будьте вежливы. Настройтесь на цивилизованный разговор. Говорите от первого лица, а не за своего собеседника. Разговаривайте наедине. Не обдумывайте ситуацию слишком долго.


Congested ears often result from sinus congestion, as your eustachian tubes run from the back of your nose to your middle ear. Since nasal decongestants relieve sinus congestion, they can also help unclog your ears.  You can find nasal decongestants over-the-counter. For some brands, you may need to ask for them at the pharmacy counter, but you don’t need a prescription. Stop taking the decongestants after 3 days, unless a doctor advises you to continue them. It’s best to talk to your doctor before taking decongestants, especially if you take other medications or have high blood pressure, glaucoma, or prostate problems. Similarly, you shouldn’t give decongestants to children. Nasal steroids can relieve the swelling inside your nasal passages, which causes congestion. This relieves both your nasal and ear congestion.  Don’t use steroids without talking to a doctor. You can find these products over-the-counter or by prescription. These are especially helpful for people who have allergies. Untreated allergies can cause ear congestion because they irritate your sinuses, resulting in nasal congestion. A daily antihistamine can help prevent this. There are several options available over-the-counter, including cetirizine (Zyrtec), loratadine (Claritin), and fexofenadine hydrochloride (Allegra).  Talk to your doctor before taking an antihistamine or if an OTC antihistamine isn’t working for you. When flying, you can take an antihistamine 1 hour before your flight to help prevent having pressure build up.  Read all instructions and precautions enclosed with the medication before taking it. You should start to feel more comfortable within a few hours of starting self-care. If you don’t, then you need to see a doctor. Congested ears can cause damage if left untreated. Additionally, you may have an infection.  See your doctor right away if you develop a fever or have any kind of discharge from your ear. Take all of the medication prescribed by your doctor, especially antibiotics. Otherwise, your symptoms may return. Your...

Congratulations! You've differentiated your equation implicitly — not an easy task for first-timers! Using this equation to find the slope (dy/dx) for any (x, y) point is as simple as plugging in the x and y values for your point into the right side of the equation, then solving for (dy/dx). For example, let's say that we want to find the slope at the point (3, -4) for our example equation above. To do this, we would substitute 3 for x and -4 for y, solving as follows:  (dy/dx) = (-2y2 - 2x + 5)/(2(2xy + y + 4) (dy/dx) = (-2(-4)2 - 2(3) + 5)/(2(2(3)(-4) + (-4) + 4) (dy/dx) = (-2(16) - 6 + 5)/(2(2(3)(-4)) (dy/dx) = (-32) - 6 + 5)/(2(2(-12)) (dy/dx) = (-33)/(2(2(-12)) (dy/dx) = (-33)/(-48) = 3/48, or 0.6875. The chain rule is an important piece of knowledge to have when dealing with calculus problems (including implicit differentiation problems). The chain rule states that for a function F(x) which can be written as (f o g)(x), the derivative of F(x) is equal to f'(g(x))g'(x). For difficult implicit differentiation problems, this means that it's possible to differentiate different individual "pieces" of the equation, then piece together the result. As a simple example, let's say that we need to find the derivative of sin(3x2 + x) as part of a larger implicit differentiation problem for the equation sin(3x2 + x) + y3 = 0. If we think of sin(3x2 + x) as "f(x)" and 3x2 + x as "g(x)", we can find the differentiation as follows:  f'(g(x))g'(x) (sin(3x2 + x))' × (3x2 + x)' cos(3x2 + x) × (6x + 1) (6x + 1)cos(3x2 + x) Though it's not common in basic calculus, some advanced applications may require the implicit differentiation of more than two variables. For each extra variable, you'll need to find an extra derivative with respect to x. For instance, if you're working with x, y, and z, you'll need to find both (dz/dy) and (dz/dx). We can do this by differentiating the equation with respect x twice — the first time, we'll insert a (dz/dx) every time we differentiate a term with z, and the second time, we'll insert a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подставьте значения (x,y), чтобы найти (dy/dx) для любой точки. Воспользуйтесь цепным правилом дифференцирования сложных функций: Если функция содержит переменные «х», «у», «z», найдите (dz/dx) и (dz/dy).


Congratulations, you're pierced! Now you just need to take care of it properly. You should soak it in a solution of warm water and sea salt for the first couple weeks. When taking a shower, it is a good idea to use an anti-microbial soap just in case. Showers are fine, but try to avoid baths or swimming during the healing process since it is easier to get infections from sitting water. With genital piercings, you should not have sex for at least four weeks or so. You have an open wound on your penis, so keep that in mind. You are much more susceptible to STDs during the healing process, and having unprotected sex makes it much more likely to get an infection. So wear a condom every time for at least two months, whether you're in a committed relationship with other forms of birth control or not. This is for your safety. Also, remember you have metal down there, so it might not be a good idea to use "Shear" or "extra sensitive" condoms as they may break more easily. Enjoy your new piercing, and if you have any questions, ask your local piercer. They are more than happy to give you advice. They want everyone to be safe.

TL;DR in Russian:

Позаботьтесь о себе. Будьте осторожны с водой. Воздержись от секса, тигр! Спрашивайте, если у вас возникли вопросы.


Conjunctivitis can occur due to viruses, bacteria, and allergies. All types of pink eye cause the eyes to become red, watery, and itchy, but the other symptoms of pink eye will vary according to its cause.  Viral can affect one or both eyes, and individuals with this condition may experience sensitivity to light and watery discharge. Viral conjunctivitis is highly contagious and difficult to treat. It usually needs to run its course, which can take anywhere from 1 to 3 weeks. The best way to treat viral conjunctivitis is by preventing complications from arising. In severe cases, topical corticosteroids may be needed.  Bacterial conjunctivitis causes a sticky discharge, yellow or green, located in the corner of the eye. In extreme cases, the discharge can cause the eyes to stick together. One or both eyes can be affected, and bacterial conjunctivitis is contagious. Bacterial conjunctivitis is best treated by a doctor. You might be able to overcome the illness at home, but antibiotics will significantly shorten the duration. Allergic conjunctivitis is usually accompanied by other allergy symptoms, including a stuffy or runny nose, and both eyes will be affected. It is not contagious. Allergic conjunctivitis is usually treated at home, but patients with severe allergies may need professional medical treatment to clear the condition up quickly. It never hurts to call the doctor when you have pink eye, since your doctor will have good recommendations for what to do. A call is strongly recommended if the pink eye is accompanied by more worrisome symptoms.  Call the doctor if you experience moderate to severe pain in the eye or if you experience vision problems that do not clear up once the discharge is wiped away. If pink eye deepens in color to an intense red, you should seek medical help as soon as possible. Contact the doctor immediately if you suspect that you have a severe form of viral conjunctivitis, such as one caused by the herpes simplex virus, or if you are immunocompromised due to HIV infection or...

Connect a cable with a mini-plug from the line out of your sound card (the green port) to the line in (blue port). Note that all sounds from your computer will be recorded, including system sounds like beeps, alarms, and alerts. You may wish to disable these before recording. Use a single-to-double stereo adapter on the output port, then plug a single-to-single stereo cable from one side of the adapter to the input port, and a pair of headphones into the second side of the adapter, so you can monitor what you're recording.

Connect in your community. Take your empathy skills to the next level by understanding what other people experience as a group or culture, for example. This will help you be socially aware at a community, or perhaps even global, level.  Find a volunteer opportunity that requires you to listen to and tend to the needs of another person or group. For example, you may wish to work at a food pantry or soup kitchen to understand the needs of people in poverty. You may wish to visit homebound senior citizens experiencing loneliness. You may wish to help new immigrants learn the language of their new country. Explore service opportunities in schools, cultural centers, political organizations, religious communities or neighborhood activities. Meet people in the population you are interested in. Read books written by people in this group, or listen to podcasts with a host from this group. This will give you insight into their lives and increase your awareness of problems they face. Immerse yourself in a different culture. Step out of your comfort zone to experience unfamiliar groups. Exposing yourself to diverse cultures and ways of life will expand your thinking and view of the world. Being immersed in different belief systems, cuisines and lifestyles is useful for expanding your social circle and building tolerance for diverse viewpoints.  If you are a student, spend a semester or do coursework abroad. Talk to people on your travels. Many people will be friendly and willing to share their country with you. To really learn about a country, venture out of tourist areas and into local neighborhoods. This gives you a better opportunity to see day-to-day life unfold. If you can't afford a trip out of the country, consider local opportunities to learn about other cultures. You may be surprised at the variety of people who live near you.  Visit a local museum devoted to an ethnic group or culture. Spend a day in an ethnic neighborhood in your community (or perhaps nearby larger city). Walk around the neighborhood and try a...

Connecting your computer to your TV requires connecting the two via a video cable. On the back of your computer, you'll see multiple ports and connectors. Video connectors may be located near the USB, speaker, and Ethernet connections, or you may have a separate graphics card further down the back of the computer. There are three main connectors that you want to look for on your computer:  HDMI - This is the current standard for connecting HD devices, and most modern computers will have an HDMI port on the back. HDMI carries both picture and audio. The HDMI port looks like a longer USB port. DVI - This is a digital connection that uses pins. DVI connectors are rectangular and have three rows of eight pins each. DVI only transfers the image signal. VGA - This is the old standard for connecting display devices. It is a trapezoidal connection with 15 pins arranged in three rows, and is typically blue. Avoid using this connection if you have access to DVI or HDMI, as VGA is the lowest-quality. VGA only transfers the image signal, and cannot display HD images. Once you know the types of connections your computer supports, you'll need to find out what types of connections your TV supports. Most TVs have input ports on the back of the TV, though some have ports along one of the sides.  Most modern HDTVs have one or more HDMI ports. This is the quickest and most pain-free way to connect, and also provides the best quality. HDMI is the only connection method that transfers both audio and video through one cable. DVI is not as common anymore, but can still be found on many HDTVs and standard definition TVs. VGA is typically not available on HDTVs, but can be found on standard definition TVs. This will help you select the correct input when switching to your computer's display. Buying a cable can be a confusing experience, as companies often throw buzzwords around to make their cables seem better than the competition. When it comes down to it, most people won't notice a difference between a cheap and an expensive cable....

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите тип кабеля, при помощи которого вы подключите компьютер к телевизору. Определите типы разъемов в телевизоре. Обратите внимание на маркировку входного сигнала в вашем телевизоре. Купите правильный кабель. Подключите компьютер к телевизору с помощью кабеля. Переключите телевизор на получение сигнала с соответствующего разъема. Настройте компьютер на отображение картинки на экране телевизора. Отрегулируйте разрешение дисплея (при необходимости).


Connecting your printer to your local Wi-Fi network helps save space and less trouble in cable connections. To connect your printer to your Wi-Fi, connect your printer to your router, enable network sharing of your printer, then add it as network printer. The user should be an administrator to do this. Access restrictions have been enforced to avoid exploitation of the network. Without these restrictions, the security of your unit could be compromised, and therefore, IT services deems them necessary. Access on the wireless network will be limited to the following ports:  RealPlayer ports (554, 6970, 7070) FTP Lotus Notes SSH Popular IM ports (Yahoo IM) - Webcam via Microsoft applications is not available due to security risks, Yahoo and Skype do work ArcGIS (Earth Science application) SciFinder Scholar (Science/Library application) and a few others mainly used for staff purposes Printing (515, 9100, 631) Basic Web-Browsing ports (HTTP, HTTPs) Open any file that can be printed, such as a photo, text document, or PDF. From the File menu, choose Print (or press Command + P).  In the resulting Print dialog, see if your printer is in the Printer pop-up menu. If it appears, select it, and you should be ready to print. If the printer does not appear in the Print dialog, choose ”Add Printer” from the Printer pop-up menu; the Printer Setup Utility will open. Click the “Add” button in the Printer List window. A list of printers that are available to you should appear. Select your printer and click “Add.” After selecting your printer, you should be ready to use your printer.

Убедитесь, что принтер правильно настроен для работы через Wi-Fi. Убедитесь, что вы обошли ограничения доступа к принтеру, такие как фильтрация MAC-адресов. Подключите принтер к сети Wi-Fi.


Consciously lower your Adam's apple by slowly swallowing, the last movement of a swallow before your throat goes up is the position you want. Another way is to lower the back of your tongue into your throat. This sounds difficult but play around with it till you find something that works. If your close friends or family suddenly hear you go from a 1st soprano to a bass you're going to be found out and have decongestants thrown at you. In conversation say a few words at the beginning and end of a sentence in a lower tone. Just be subtle. Trying to speak too deep too soon not only will seem conspicuous, it can do serious damage to your vocal chords over time. Be careful, and reign it back if you start to feel serious strain. Whenever you find yourself speaking and you've forgotten to try to consciously lower your pitch, just take a deep breath, clear your throat, and finish whatever you were saying with a lower voice. Ending sentences with a high pitch indicates a question, therefore, consciously lowering the end of your sentences will help you sound more confident. Like any other habit, you will forget often at first. With enough practice, what once was a conscious habit will become something you do unconsciously. The only key is to continue consciously speaking in a deeper tone until it becomes natural.

TL;DR in Russian:

Начните говорить из желудка, а не из горла. Начинайте постепенно. Понижайте голос в конце предложений. Тренируйтесь осознанно занижать тон голоса до тех пор, пока это не войдет в привычку.


Consequences for a seduction could be very good, or very bad. Your friendship could give birth to a one-night stand or even a long-term relationship. On the other hand, things can get uncomfortable and awkward quickly. If this is the case, the best way to repair a friendship (provided you want to repair it) is by talking openly about what happened. Explain what you felt and why you wanted to do what you did.  It's usually best not to pry into questions like why they rejected you. Focusing on the rejection itself can lead to bitterness on both ends. If all is indeed lost, you have to accept your losses. Not everything is going to work out the way you want it to; the same is especially true in pursuing relationships. If the seduction has failed for whatever reason, there's going to be a spot of awkwardness. It is best to turn this into an opportunity for both sides to vent their feelings and say how they feel. This may lessen the impact of the rejection, but it's necessary if you want to keep the friendship alive. Be honest with how you feel. If the other person tries to brush it off as a joke, it may be best to follow through with that and move past the episode as quickly as possible. Otherwise, it's a good idea to talk about what happened as friends. Make sure to let your friend that you care about them as a friend, in spite of any added attraction you've had for them. You might start a conversation with something like this: "I know how this might look. While I am attracted to you, I also value you as a great friend. I hope you don't think I feel any less of you because of this." Following the seduction, you need to move forward. This is true whether the seduction worked, you're staying friends, or the friendship was ruined as a result. The outcomes vary wildly, but even in the worst case, there is no benefit in letting yourself suffer over it. An important part of life lies in accepting your decisions and learning from them. Even if you regret making the seduction, you should forgive yourself as soon as you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Примите последствия. Обсудите ситуацию. Двигайтесь дальше.


Conserving energy sometimes requires making small sacrifices, and getting more familiar with the heat of summer is one of them. Leaving the air conditioner on all the time is a great way to use loads of energy and keep your electricity bills high.  Turn off the air conditioner when you aren't home. There's no reason for your house to stay cool while you're at work. Use the air conditioner in just one or two rooms where you spend the most time. Close the doors in the air conditioned rooms to keep the cool air inside. Cool off in other ways. Take a cool shower in the heat of the day, go to the pool, or spend time under a shade tree. Try to limit your use of the air conditioner to just a few hours a day. Heating a home is another big energy drain. It's possible to reduce the amount of energy you use by simply lowering the thermostat by a few degrees in the winter. Keep warm by wearing multiple layers of clothing and  throw blankets over you. Keeping the cool or warm air in, depending on the season, is an important way to save energy. If a window gets left open, your air conditioner or furnace has to go into overdrive to keep things at a steady temperature.  Hire a contractor to take a look at your home and determine whether better insulation is required around the basement, foundation, attic, and other areas. Use caulk and seals to seal the cracks around your doors and windows. Use plastic sheeting over your windows during the winter to keep drafty air out of the house. Taking shorter, cooler showers reduces the amount of water your water heater needs to heat on a daily basis. Washing your clothes on the cold setting is another way to avoid using too much hot water.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выключите кондиционер. Поддерживайте температуру дома на несколько градусов ниже зимой. Изолируйте дом. Используйте меньше горячей воды.


Conserving water not only helps save our resources for future generations, it can save you money on your water bill as well. Little things you can do to save water include:  Taking 5-minute showers or only filling the bathtub one-quarter to one-third of the way full. Turning off the faucet while you are brushing your teeth. Using urinals in public restrooms when they are available (for men and boys). Putting just a couple of dirty clothes into the washing machine uses extra electricity and wastes water. To save on electricity and reduce waste, wait until you have a full load of dirty clothes before running your machine.  If you only have a small load of clothes, wash them by hand instead. Alternatively, consider investing in a high-efficiency washing machine. Dishwashers not only use a lot of water, they use extra energy to heat the water up. Expect to save an average of $40.00 on your bills and prevent over 100 pounds (45 kg) of carbon pollution each year by only washing full loads. If you only have a few dishes to wash and are washing by hand, use a plug to fill the sink about one-quarter of the way full. Don’t allow the tap to continuously run while you wash and rinse. Consider putting low-flow faucets or faucet aerators in your kitchen and bathroom sinks, and low-flow shower heads and toilets in every bathroom in your home. A low-flow showerhead can cost as little as $10.00, but can reduce your water consumption by 30-50%. Using a cover will greatly reduce the amount of water that evaporates and thus the amount of water that is needed to refill the pool. The more the water in your pool evaporates, the more water you need to use to fill the pool back up.  Without a cover, you will use 30-50% more water. For an affordable option, use a bubble-style solar cover; for a longer-lasting cover, try vinyl.

TL;DR in Russian:

Примите сознательное решение экономить воду. Делайте полную загрузку стиральной машины. Делайте полную загрузку посудомоечной машины. Установите экономную водопроводную арматуру с низким расходом воды. Накрывайте бассейн специальным брезентом.


Consider  leaving behind friends who keep you focused on the past.  The social environment we live is an essential part of what defines both who we are. It also affects how we incorporate unresolved past experiences into our lives.  Spend some time thinking (or maybe writing in your journal) about the people you spend time with and how they make you feel. If there are people in your life who make you feel bad or reinforce negative habits, consider spending less time with them. For example, people who constantly put you down may not be good to have in your life. Friends who make it difficult for you to do what you need to do to incorporate difficult past experiences can also be a problem. Consider making new friends, or at least initiating a change of scenery. This isn’t always easy, but can be a great way to force you out of your comfort zone and grow as a person. It's a good idea to try new hobbies with your new companions. When you're ready, start to push the boundaries of your comfort zone by joining a local sports team or art class. New directions for your life will gradually emerge that might not have otherwise seemed possible. Don't upset yourself by thinking about people who did not respect and appreciate you. Instead, concentrate on those who stick by your side. Let them know you appreciate their help.  It can be hard not to dwell on negativity. But, your supportive friends are the ones who deserve your attention. Keep good friends close by during this time. Having a supportive community of people around you will help you stay strong. It will allow you to feel confident enough to engage with unresolved past experiences or difficult emotions without feeling alone. When you feel like you're slipping, try spending some time around someone you trust who can help keep you on the right track.  If you feel that you are going to fall back into a bad habit, or are on the verge of despair, call a trusted friend and ask if he or she can meet you for coffee or swing by your house. Having someone around can help...

TL;DR in Russian:

Оцените свой круг общения. Будьте благодарны друзьям, которые поддерживают вас. Попробуйте систематическую десенсибилизацию (поведенческую терапию). Разберитесь со своими страхами и измените привычки. Составьте список, чтобы отследить свое поведение.


Consider a smaller store over a large chain as they may have a smaller stock. This may mean they spend more time with the hamsters, making sure that they are healthy and ready to be sold. Make sure they are clean and the hamsters have access to fresh food, bedding, water. They should also have access to exercise.  If there are multiple hamsters in the habitat, they are probably young. Observe how they interact with each other. They should be inquisitive and active if awake. They should not be aggressive toward each other. The hamsters should look well fed and well taken care of. They should appear to have bright eyes and shiny coats. Another way to assess the store is by interacting with the store employees. Ask questions about the hamsters, such as age and breed. They should be knowledgeable and readily helpful. Ask for references from other customers. If you are unsure if the pet store is for you, ask if the store can provide references from other customers. You may be able to ask questions of these pet owners to inquire about the hamsters after they were purchased. If you are thinking about a breed that you plan on handling and interacting with, ask if you can hold your pick before you decide to pick it up. You will want to look for a few good attributes before purchasing.  Tameness. You want to make sure the hamster is not stressed or anxious while being held. It should not nip, bite, or squirm. Interested rather than anxious. Your hamster should be interested in its surroundings rather than scared. If your hamster is looking around or sniffing for food, it is showing signs that it is relaxed. As hamsters have a life-span of about 2-3 years, you want to make sure you are taking home a healthy and happy friend. Observe these obvious traits before making a purchase.  Clear eyes, nose, and mouth Dry, not runny, nose Shiny coat A steady gate No overgrown teeth A happy disposition No hair loss No lumps in body or fur The pet store or breeder may provide a small box to take home your hamster. Your hamster may...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите хороший зоомагазин или ответственного заводчика. Посмотрите на то, в каких условиях содержатся хомячки. Пообщайтесь с работниками зоомагазина. Спросите разрешения взять хомячка в руки, прежде чем совершать покупку. Выберите здорового молодого хомячка. Принесите хомячка домой.


Consider all of the reasons that you and your ex broke up. Try to keep in mind that even if that you enjoyed being together for a while, something was not working.  Thinking about the reasons why the relationship ended can help you understand why you need to move on. You may also be able to avoid making the same mistakes in the future if you can identify areas where you contributed to the demise of the relationship. Ask yourself some of the following questions:  Did I contribute to the end of the relationship? If so, what did I do? Do I tend to choose the same sort of people to date? If so, what are they like? Are they good for me? Why or why not? Have I had similar problems in other relationships? If so, what is causing me to have these problems? What can I do differently in future relationships? Write in a journal or try writing poems. The most important thing is to be honest and don't edit yourself as you go. One of the best results of writing it all down is that sometimes you will be amazed by a sudden insight that comes to you as you are pouring it all out onto paper. Patterns may become clearer, and as your grieving begins to lessen, you will find it so much easier to understand valuable life lessons from the whole experience.  Try writing down your feelings every day after your breakup until you feel better.  For example, you could start each of your journal entries with “It has been __ days since we broke up and I feel _____” Then go into more detail about how you are feeling. Using this prompt will help you to see the progress of your emotions over time and process some of those emotions as well.  Try writing a letter to your ex, but do not send it. Sometimes it just helps to get all of your feelings out. However, sending it is not a good idea. This letter is just for you, so write out everything you wish you could have said and be done with it. It doesn't do any good to rehash the breakup over and over again, so just pretend you are telling them how you feel for the last time. Try writing a story. ...

TL;DR in Russian:

Думайте о своих отношениях. Пишите о своих чувствах. Справляйтесь со своим гневом. Не отказывайтесь от своего решения. Напоминайте себе об отрицательных чертах бывшего партнера. Найдите причины, почему вам лучше без него или нее.


Consider bringing some party food with you to the sleepover. This could include food items like potato chips, candy, cupcakes, fresh fruit, or even a few pizzas.  Always bring enough to share with everyone at the sleepover. Ask the host parents ahead of time to see if it’s okay for you to bring some snacks to share. You might want to think about bringing things that you and the other kids can play with during the sleepover. Consider bringing a game console and some fun electronic games, some board games, or even some kind of craft activity.  Bring an iPod or other MP3 player to play music during the sleepover. If you think you might have trouble sleeping or being away from home, consider bringing your favorite teddy bear or another comfort toy to sleep with. Sleepovers can be so much fun and a great way to make memories. To preserve those memories, consider bringing a camera – if your parents say it’s okay. Many cell phones have cameras on them as well. If you have a cell phone with a camera, it might be better to leave the camera at home to reduce the risk of losing a valuable electronic device. Ask the host about things you are unsure about bringing – like games or food. Remember that this is someone else’s house and you need to be respectful about what you bring over.  Other parents may have different house rules than your parents, so you don’t want to accidentally bring something the host wouldn’t like. For example, some parents don’t allow candy in their house. It might be disrespectful to bring candy over for a sleepover if the host parents have prohibited candy in their home.

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите закуски. Возьмите игры и игрушки. Возьмите с собой камеру или фотоаппарат, чтобы запечатлеть самые яркие моменты вашей вечеринки. Обращайтесь к хозяину вечеринки с вопросами, если вы в чем-то сомневаетесь.


Consider buying a journal that you can designate just for writing down your thoughts and feelings. Often it is helpful to document your feelings of sadness in writing in order to better make sense of them. This will help you get "in tune" with yourself and achieve a deeper level of self-understanding.  Journaling - even for 20 minutes a day - works to clarify and organize your thoughts about your sadness, which may help you to better pinpoint the reasons why you are feeling sad. It also helps you keep track of your behavioral and emotional patterns. Additionally, some research has found that journaling can even help your physical health and strengthen your immune system because it works to reduce stress.  While writing, concentrate on what you are writing, not how you are writing it. In other words, don't focus on your grammar or spelling. An example of a journal entry may look something like this: "I have had a particularly rough day today - my sad thoughts about the divorce will not leave me alone. Sometimes I'm not sure if I should even still feel sad about it because even though it happened a year ago, the marriage had been dead for a long time. I know that. But I do worry that I'm stuck in the past and that my kids are suffering for it. I'm also angry at myself for not being able to let myself let the sadness past go. People get divorced all the time, so why am I having such a hard time? Talking with my sister helped the last time I had a rough day; I think I'll call her. I know tomorrow is another day.” Studies have shown that the very act of smiling can improve your mood and make you feel happier In addition, laughing releases endorphins, those brain chemicals that enhance your mood.  Even though you may not feel like it, even using those small muscles that facilitate laughing and smiling can make you happier. So, try faking it. It may be forced at first, but laughing or smiling could trigger a funny or happy memory and cause a real laugh or smile to occur.  If you want to try smiling or laughing...

TL;DR in Russian:

Записывайте собственные чувства. Улыбайтесь и смейтесь. Попробуйте выплакаться. Постарайтесь посмотреть на сложившуюся ситуацию шире. Отвлеките себя. Начните читать.


Consider dropping your own assessments of their problem and related ideas about how to fix things. Instead, consider ways you could be more empathetic. For instance, consider letting go of your desire to fix their problem and try to understand the details of their situation. You may not agree with their interpretation of their situation, but you should still listen attentively and try to understand them. Often, unsolicited advice comes from a place of not adequately understanding the situation or challenge that another person is going through. To move beyond this problem, you could try to understand and empathize with the challenge that they are going through. It might help to ask them clarifying questions:  “Can you tell me a little more about that?” “That sounds really tough. I’m not sure I understand how you got into that situation. Can you remind me how that happened?” After listening attentively, you can ask them directly how you could help out. They may simply say that you are helping by offering an attentive ear. If they need something specific, they may tell you. If they are specifically looking for advice, they will have the opportunity to ask you for it. Try saying:  “I’m here anytime you need me. Really, anything you need.” “What can I do to help?” Advice that is specifically requested is much more appreciated than unsolicited advice. If you are called upon to give advice, you can go ahead and offer your two cents on how to resolve the situation. Give advice if they ask the following kinds of questions:  "I really need advice on how to resolve this situation with my brother. I'm at a loss right now. Do you have any experience that would help?" "Have you ever dealt with a family member dealing with depression? Do you have any advice based on that experience?" Rather than telling them specific things to do, you should convey your care for them and listen to their problems. You shouldn’t promise to keep any secrets, since you may have to convey the information to a mental health professional. Listen...

TL;DR in Russian:

Перестаньте пытаться решить чужие проблемы. Стремитесь понять положение вещей. Спросите, какую помощь вы можете оказать. Дайте совет, если вас попросили об этом. Поговорите с человеком,если вам кажется, что он может причинить себе физический вред.


Consider having a few in easy to reach locations and make sure everyone in your household knows how to use them. Keep one in the basement, one in the kitchen, and one elsewhere in the house, like near the sleeping quarters. They're good for several years, but get them tested out regularly and recharged to make sure they'll be ready when you need them. Check your fire alarms every month to make sure the batteries are in good condition and change them out regularly. Having the right warning system in place can give important extra minutes that can be the difference between an inconvenience and a disaster. Never overload outlets or power strips with chords. Avoid plugging in more chords than an outlet can handle to eliminate the possibility of dangerous electrical fires. Regularly unplug unused appliances to avoid needless circuits. Use space heaters wisely. Keep flammable clothing and other substances clear of space heaters and other devices that might catch things on fire. More than one-third of home fires begin with candles. Please remember not to leave candles unattended and make sure they're far enough from drapes and other cloth that could start a fire. Always put them out safely and make sure candles are entirely out before you leave them unattended. Consider using battery or electric-operated heaters in lieu of open flame candles. You can get all the aromatic benefits of burning candles without the risk of fire.

TL;DR in Russian:

Всегда держите в доме качественный огнетушитель. Сохраняйте пожарную сигнализацию в хорошем, рабочем состоянии. Используйте ваши электроприборы правильно. Будьте осторожны со свечами.


Consider having an exam to rule out any physical problems that may be causing your sexual urges. Sometimes, illness or disorders can disrupt hormones and can make you feel hypersexual.  Your doctor may ask you to see a psychologist or psychiatrist to get you evaluated for any mood disorders. For example, a high desire for sex is a symptom of bipolar disorder.  Be honest with your doctor about your sexual urges and express your concerns. Estimate how many times a day you think about sex or act on a sexual urge. For example, you might say, “I watch porn and masturbate four times a day.” Your doctor can help you determine if your behavior is problematic or within the range of normal. If you are currently in a relationship, talk to your partner about your sexual urges. If you are feeling sexually unsatisfied in your relationship, be honest and discuss how the two of you could make an effort to prioritize sex.  You could say, “I am wondering if I am having so many urges because we haven’t really been having sex lately. What do you think? Are you happy with our sex life?” Understand that you and your partner may have different levels of sex drive. You may want to have sex more frequently than your partner. This doesn’t make either of you wrong or right, it is just how you were made. Be honest with yourself and each other about if this can be managed or if this is a deal-breaker for the relationship. Talk to your partner if you feel compelled to cheat on them. Be honest, even though it may be a difficult conversation. You could say, “I know this is painful to hear, but I am having sexual urges toward other people. I am telling you this because I want to be honest, and I am struggling.”  Consider seeing a couples counselor with training in sexual addiction or sexual problems to help you navigate your relationship.  Talking to a trusted friend may also be a good option. They can help to hold you accountable for your goals, listen to you when you need to vent, and provide objective feedback. If you are concerned about...
