Common places to buy leather include Tandy Leather Factory and Springfield Leather Company. You can find physical stores in your area but there are also a number of online retailers. Of course, if you find another option that you like better, you can take that option. When looking at places to buy leather, you should look at how they are selling it. Good leather is usually bought by the square foot or by the piece. You can also buy scrap leather by the bag. If someone's selling you leather that doesn't seem right, be wary. Not only will scars, brands, and bites make your final product difficult to tool and look bad, they're also a sign that a leather vendor is supplying their leather from places that treat their cows terribly. You don't want to have any part in animals being abused, so buy your leather from good sources. It is said that writers need to write a few hundred thousand words before any of the words are good. For leather working, you're going to have to do some bad work before you're ready to start doing good work, so you should not start by buying fancy leather. Buy scrap leather by the bag or any other cheap beginner's leather. You'll know when you're ready for something a little nicer! For tooling, cow leather that has been vegetable tanned is the best option. Other leathers can be used for other details, but cow veg tan is your friend when it comes to tooling. You will want to avoid leather that is intended for furniture and leather that is textured. These are not suitable for tooling. Different projects will need leathers of different thicknesses. Make sure you're getting the right thickness for what you want to do. Leather thickness is measured by the ounce. For tooling, 2-3 ounces is too thin. Start instead with 3-4 ounces and use thicker leather depending on your purposes. Weights translate to a standard range of millimeters. You may want to test the thickness of your leather pieces when you buy a new batch to make sure that you got what you paid for.

Common side effects of antibiotics are stomach upset, vomiting, diarrhea, and vaginal infections. Read the patient leaflet to know the specific side effects associated with your antibiotic. Talk to the doctor about the severity of your symptoms.  She may decide to change the antibiotic.  Stomach upset, diarrhea, vaginal infections, and thrush (white patches of yeast in the mouth) occur because the antibiotic kills the good or normal bacteria along with the bad. These issues may need to be treated with other types of antibiotics or other medications. Your doctor may also suggest that you use a probiotic, such as those found in yogurt or dietary supplements, to help restore the “good” bacteria. Antibiotics can affect the kidneys, ears, liver, or the peripheral nerves (nerves not in the brain or spine).  Tell your doctor if you have abdominal pain, ringing in your ears, or tingling. And, if the antibiotic you are taking may make you more sensitive to the sun, make sure to limit sun exposure or wear sunscreen with SPF at least 30 when you are outside to reduce your chance of sunburn. Some antibiotics, particularly the tetracycline family, may cause phototoxicity, where your skin develops an intolerance to sun exposure. Talk to your doctor if you see any of the following symptoms while using an antibiotic:  Exaggerated sunburn Stinging or itching sensation on the skin Blistering after sun exposure Change in skin color Skin peeling Be aware of signs like itching, rash, hives, or shortness of breath.  Call 911 if you suspect an anaphylactic reaction, the most severe form of allergy, as it can be life-threatening. Symptoms of an anaphylactic reaction include:  Dizziness Loss of consciousness Labored breathing Swelling of the tongue and airway Blueness of the skin. This reaction can progress to anaphylactic shock and death when there is a drop in blood pressure and heart failure. Sometimes, the prescribed antibiotic is not the correct one for combating the type(s) of infective microorganisms found in your system.  If...

TL;DR in Russian:

Если при приеме антибиотика у вас появятся новые симптомы, скажите об этом врачу. Если у вас разовьется чувствительность к свету, запишитесь на прием к врачу. Как можно скорее покажитесь врачу, если у вас появятся признаки аллергии. Если симптомы заболевания не пройдут или усилятся, свяжитесь с врачом.


Common symptoms include the following:  A persistent urge to urinate, even when you just emptied your bladder. A painful, burning sensation when you urinate Passing small amounts of urine. Cloudy and strong-smelling urine. Feeling pressure in the lower part of your abdomen and discomfort in your pelvic area A low-grade fever. Small amounts of blood in your urine.  Children may have symptoms that include irritability, poor appetite, and trouble controlling the bladder. Other names for cystitis are bladder infections, and urinary tract infections. Starting treatment promptly can help you to feel better quickly and prevent any complications, such as a kidney infection. Sometimes, cystitis can cause discomfort in the abdomen or pelvic area or low-grade fever. You can treat these symptoms with an over-the-counter NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug). Common NSAIDs include ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB) and naproxen sodium (Aleve). You can also take acetaminophen (Tylenol), which isn't an anti-inflammatory but can help relieve pain and fever.  Take the lowest possible dose that's effective. Overdosing or prolonged use of OTC painkillers can cause serious complications. If you experience back or side pain, fever and chills, or nausea and vomiting, seek medical help immediately. You may have an infection that requires immediate treatment. Your doctor may want to collect a urine sample to verify the presence of bacteria. The most common type of bacteria that causes cystitis is called Escherichia coli, or E. coli.  Your doctor will know which antibiotic you need to effectively manage the infection. Take the antibiotic exactly as prescribed, and for the full duration of the prescription. By doing this you can be sure you have completely treated the condition, and will not have a sudden relapse of your symptoms.  Talk to your doctor before you proceed with any herbal remedies. Antibiotics are the drugs of choice when an active infection is involved. Your doctor is your best resource if you are considering herbs or...

Распознайте симптомы цистита. Сообщите врачу о появившихся симптомах как можно раньше. Принимайте НПВС для избавления от боли. Принимайте антибиотики. Принимайте препараты для избавления от дискомфорта при мочеиспускании. Пейте достаточно жидкости. Пейте клюквенный сок. Избегайте употребления жидкостей, содержащих сахар и кофеин. Откажитесь от секса в период заболевания.


Common symptoms of a collapsed vein are discoloration, tenderness, and swelling. Monitor the area where the needle was inserted for atypical bruising, discoloration, or sensitivity to touch. A large collapsed vein may also cause extremities such as hands or feet to feel cold, but this is typically more a symptom of a collapsed artery, which is a different and more critical issue. If your vein has collapsed, you’ll experience sharp pain at the injection site. The site may also bruise, or appear black and blue. The injection site may also become itchy. If the injection site begins to itch, this is actually a good sign. While it confirms that the vein was collapsed, the itching indicates that blood is starting to reopen the vein and recirculate. Scratching the itch, however, can interrupt this process and risks permanently damaging the vein. Nearly every intravenous drug user will experience a collapsed vein at some point during their drug use.  Often, veins will reopen on their own.  When they do not, serious, permanent health complications can follow, including inadequate circulation. Ultimately, very little can be done about a collapsed vein. As such, it is vital to focus on preventing your veins from collapsing.

TL;DR in Russian:

Common underlying conditions include thyroid disease and gynecological issues like polycystic ovary syndrome. The treatment for these conditions will be discussed in the following steps. The thyroid gland produces hormones that alter the metabolic process in your body. This can affect your menstrual cycle. If you have hyperthyroidism, treatment may include targeting the thyroid tissues by taking medication to slow down thyroid hormone production. If you have hypothyroidism, your periods may be longer and be heavier. Hypothyroidism is treated with thyroid hormone replacement. Your physician may request diagnostic work-ups to determine the drugs that will work best for you.  The most commonly available anti-thyroid drugs are methimazole  and propylthiouracil (PTU). Methimazole is often the drug of choice for its low incidence of medical side effects and is generally prescribed at 15 to 30 mg a day.  Hypothyroidism is treated with daily use of the synthetic thyroid hormone levothyroxine (Levothroid, Synthroid). Common symptoms of PCOS include light, irregular periods or none at all due to the unbalanced production of reproductive hormones. Oftentimes, ovulation does not take place in PCOS patients. The treatment goal focuses on the restoration of hormonal balance by giving birth control pills or oral contraceptives to trigger menstruation.  If you are overweight and have PCOS, losing weight is an essential part of treatment. The pill comes in a pack with 21 estrogen and progesterone hormone tablets and seven placebo pills. Extreme weight loss as a result of disease or improper diet and excessive exercise may upset the balance of hormones, thereby causing irregular periods. In the same manner, rapid weight gain and stress also alters the normal hormonal processes within the body. A low body mass index or any kind of nutritional deficiencies require nutrition counseling sessions.   Ideal weight loss or gain should not go beyond 2 kilograms a month or 4.4 pounds. Note that 1 pound is equivalent to 3,500 calories or...

Communicate openly to your partner about your difficulty maintaining an erection. Couples who are unable to talk openly to each other sometimes find it harder to be sexually intimate. If there is no communication, each partner may blame themselves. If you are both uncomfortable talking about it counselling may help.  In some cases, your partner may have ideas or suggestions about how he or she can help you maintain your erection in the bedroom. Getting to really know your partner will help you become more intimate and feel more comfortable. If your sex is focused just on penetration and climax, you may feel under more pressure to quickly get and maintain an erection, which can make this harder to do. Try to find new and more varied ways to be intimate with your partner that are not just about sprinting to the finish line. Take time with each other, such as taking a bath or shower together or massaging each other.  You can also try practicing different sexual positions to enhance blood flow. Being on top or standing up while engaging in sexual activity can increase your blood flow and help you maintain an erection. If you or your doctor suspect your problems with maintaining an erection are psychological, consider the possibility of undergoing counselling. A professional, experienced psychologist may be able to help reverse your problems with ED.  Problems with maintaining erections are not normally psychological. Emotional causes are more common in younger men and physical causes in older men. If you have erections in the morning or at night, it is likely that your difficulties maintaining an erection for intercourse are not physical.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поговорите со своим партнером. Постарайтесь найти новые способы близости. Обратитесь к специалисту.


Communicating a fraction visually makes it apparent to other people. They're a perfect way to express proportions to others, especially if those people don't have a mathematical background. Visual estimations are best-suited for comparing one fraction against another. The human eye is trained to compare and measure things, even without mathematical experience. Putting something in visual terms helps to ease the mind from purely abstract, numbers-based thinking. Visual estimations are also perfect for use in casual, "real life" settings.  For example, a 12/16 fraction may look bigger than 7/8 in a purely numerical form, but a simple graph of the two next to each other will easily show the latter is bigger than the former. The two main types of visually-illustrated fractions are line and circle graphs. Lines are best for measurements, whereas circles (or "pie charts") are best for showing proportions. Different visual models will fit different people. Whether you want to use a pie chart, rectangle, chart or some other way of visualizing your proportions, an illustration of a fraction will give you a reference point to think about it in more concrete terms.  Different proportions can be indicated by different shades or colours. For example, two shaded thirds of a pie circle indicates a 2/3 fraction. It's a good idea to play around with a few visual models using the same set of fractions. This will show you how different models can represent the same thing. Using chocolate pieces, building blocks or even pebbles, you can estimate your fractions by setting different pieces into groups. A fraction with 50 parts (17/50+33/50) can be expressed by separating 50 pieces into two groups. With that, you'll be able to visually see how one fraction sizes up to the other. By illustrating two or more proportions next to one another, you'll have an easy visual reference as to which fractions are biggest, and which are smallest. The human eye will be able to identify the distinction almost without thinking, so it's a nice way...

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите необходимость в наглядной оценке. Выберите наглядную модель. Проиллюстрируйте дробь с помощью физических предметов. Расположите пропорции рядом друг с другом. Создайте круговую диаграмму.


Communicating is one of the best ways to strengthen your connection with someone. Talking is one of the most effective forms of communication, so it makes sense that connecting verbally can help strengthen your personal bonds. Try to have in-depth conversations with those people you really care about.  One way to do this would be to implement better dinner table talk. For example, if you live with a romantic partner, avoid watching tv while you eat. Instead, try to have an interesting conversation several times a week. Ask fun questions such as, "If you won the lottery, what would you do first?" These sorts of questions can help you connect and get to know one another better. Having good conversations is an excellent way to make your work life better. Not only can it help you advance in your profession, but it will make your day-to-day routine more enjoyable. Try talking to your co-workers about things other than work. This will help you connect on a personal level. Then, when you are working on a project together, you will naturally communicate more effectively. Perhaps you've noticed that your cubicle mate has several pictures of her cat on her desk. Try to ask her questions about her pet as a way to get to know her better. This will lead to more in-depth conversations down the road. People who are happy about their conversations are generally happier people. Mostly, this refers to in-depth conversations, but surface level chats can raise your endorphins, too. Basically, try to put effort into each conversation that you have during the day and you'll start to feel good about life in general. while you are talking with someone to improve your mood. Try to smile more when you are talking with someone as well. Smiling makes you feel happier by releasing endorphins, so it is an easy way to improve the quality of your conversations and to get more out of them. Remind yourself to smile before, during, and after your conversation to reap the benefits of smiling.

TL;DR in Russian:

Улучшайте взаимоотношения. Работайте над улучшением отношений с вашими коллегами. Говорите о важных вещах, чтобы стать счастливее. Улыбайтесь


Communicating your needs and standing up for yourself probably won't come to you overnight. You may want to practice standing up for yourself in low-risk situations before you try confronting someone in a position of authority or importance (e.g., a boss or romantic partner). For example, if a co-worker asks you to bring him or her coffee whenever you go to Starbucks but never offers to pay, you could remind him or her about the cost the next time they ask. You don't have to be insulting or aggressive when you do this; instead, just say something friendly but clear like “Would you like to give me cash to pay for yours, or would you prefer I put both on my debit card and you can buy the next round?” If you feel taken for granted by others, you need to communicate that to the other person. However, you don't want to simply come out and say “You take me for granted.” Attacks and “you” statements shut down communication and can make a bad situation worse. Instead, use simple, factual statements to explain your discomfort.  Stay calm. You might feel resentment, anger or frustration, but it's important to keep those emotions under control. While there may be plenty of negative emotions within you, focus on presenting a calm front and letting the other person know that you're not unstable or attacking but that you do mean business. Stick with "I" language. It's easy to fall into the trap of saying things like "you make me miserable" or “you're a jerk,” but all that does is make the other person defensive. Instead, stick with explaining how things impact you and start your sentences with such phrases as "I feel", "I want", "I need", "I am going to" and "I am doing this from now on".  If you're concerned that enforcing a boundary may seem like you don't want to help, you can explain the situation. For example, if a coworker asks for your help, you could say something like “I would normally love to help you with that project, but my son's recital is tonight and I don't want to miss it.” You can establish that you care...

TL;DR in Russian:

Начните с малого. Говорите прямо. Предлагайте способы решения проблемы. Прибегайте к эмпатии, когда взаимодействуете с людьми. Репетируйте свои слова. Используйте ассертивный язык тела. Будьте последовательны.


Communication is an important part of every friendship. Try to plan one night per week or every other week to have a phone call and talk about anything! Share what’s going on in your life, talk about your common interests, or make plans to meet up.  Even if you’re both very busy, try to set aside time to talk or send a few text messages throughout the week. This will help make you feel close, even if you don’t have time to see each other frequently. Reassure your friend that you’ll always be there for them even if you don’t talk as often as you used to. Whether you’ve always wanted to see the Grand Canyon or just want to try a new restaurant down the street, include your friend in your plans. Sharing new experiences together will give you memories and opinions to bond over.  If you’re looking for something fun and new to do together, try planning a road trip or cooking a new recipe. You could also sign up for classes to learn a new skill together, like scrapbooking, painting, or woodworking. Being a thoughtful friend can help to bring you closer to your friend. If you see something that you know they’ll like, and you can afford it, buying it for them can show that you care. Remember that you don’t need a reason to be kind or thoughtful to your friends.  For example, if your friend has come down with a cold, you can bring them soup and cold medicine to help them feel better. For someone who likes to knit, you might get them a ball of yarn that you thought was a nice color, or a pair of knitting needles. If you want to help your friend but don’t have a lot of money to spend, you can offer to watch their pets if they’re going out of town, or run an errand for them that’s out of their way. This will help to make their life easier, and you don’t have to spend any money on it! Friends should be able to rely on and trust each other with almost anything. If you or your friend are having a hard time, it can be helpful to talk about what’s going on. In many cases, you might be able to offer helpful advice to each...

TL;DR in Russian:

Находите возможности общаться как можно чаще. Пробуйте новое вместе. Дарите друзьям небольшие подарки или оказывайте любезности. Поддерживайте друг друга в сложных ситуациях. Делитесь личными историями.


Communication is one of the most key elements of a healthy relationship with your brother.   Take the time to talk to your brother. Ask about his day, what he is doing, how he is feeling etc. Don't just talk about good things with your brother. Make sure you talk to him about his problems and your problems. Be honest about how your relationship with your brother makes you feel. Always communicate when you appreciate something your brother does. Don't let resentments build. If your brother does something that hurts your feelings, you need to tell him. The teenage years can test sibling relationships. It is important that teens are honest about their feelings about their siblings. Half of learning to get along with your brother and developing a good relationship is listening.   Be willing to listen to how your brother is feeling. If your brother tells you something, don't tell the rest of your family. Keep private information to yourself. Focus on your brother's feelings rather than your own when you are talking. Be willing to apologize when you have hurt your siblings feelings. Don't let your relationship slide because you are busy or don't feel like it.   Get to know what he likes to do, and spend time doing those activities with your brother. Plan a fun activity to do together often. If you show your brother you want to get to know his interests, you will show him that you want to spend time with him. Some things you can do with your brother are playing sports, cooking, going to the movies or sporting events, gaming etc. When you are spending time with your brother, make sure you aren't distracted. Don't spend the whole time on your phone or talking to someone else.

TL;DR in Russian:

Научитесь эффективно общаться с братом. Будьте хорошим слушателем. Находите время для своего брата.


Communication is perhaps the most important leadership quality, and one that runs through all of the other important qualities. One of the keys to good communication is enabling positive and sometimes robust dialogue on problems and solutions. There are different styles of leadership, but someone who consistently shuts down debates and stifles discussions is unlikely to command the support of others for too long.  Ask and encourage open questions, rather than constrictive ones. Highlight areas of agreement first, and deal with the disagreements second. Don’t be overbearing, and facilitate an open environment where people are free to talk without fear. Positive body language can help you come across as dynamic, open and cooperative. It can also help you to make a strong impression when you are talking, and increase the power and effectiveness of your words. One good rule is to have body language that is consistent with what you are saying. Don’t, for example, ask someone to do something while looking down at the floor. Instead make eye contact and be open and engaging.  To have positive and affirmative body language while talking, try to maintain eye contact, stand tall and straight, and relax your face.  Your body language may be interpreted as how you are really feeling, so try to have body language that reflects the qualities and approach of a good leader. To be a good communicator, you need to be a good listener. If you make the effort to listen to somebody, she will see that and come to think of you as someone she can talk to. This is an important leadership quality to develop. Body language is important, so try to maintain eye contact with the person you are talking to.  To be an active listener:  Don’t judge people. Pay complete attention to the person you are talking to. Try to understand others, before you try make yourself understood. Don’t interrupt unnecessarily.

TL;DR in Russian:

Ведите эффективные диалоги. Не забывайте про позитивный язык тела. Будьте активным слушателем.


Communication is the most important element of any relationship. If you don’t communicate, you won’t know each other’s problems and concerns. As a result, you won’t be able to form a relationship that is respecting of both of your unique qualities. Both parties need to define boundaries and come to a mutual agreement about each other’s space, independence, and autonomy. You need to understand what your elderly person is comfortable with when it comes to being assisted or being subtly monitored to make sure they are okay.  Talk to them about their expectations about your relationship. What do they expect of you in terms of assistance and interaction? Discuss use of shared space like the bathroom, kitchen, or living room. Come to an agreement about under what circumstances family or friends will visit. Discuss use of each other's personal belongings, like dishes, appliances, and even food. Figure out who pays for what ahead of time. Having finances decided and agreed upon ahead of time could save you from a headache or even legal fees in the future. Records will make a big difference here, so if you start out knowing who pays for what, and have it written down, you are ahead of the game. Also, consider the following:  Include relatives in discussions about money. If you’re going to be living with an elderly family member, make sure to speak with your other relatives to be transparent about your financial agreement. Be open to their feedback, especially if they will be contributing to the cost. This will help you avoid problems and resentment in the future. Consider the cost. If you will be covering the cost of your elderly relative, be informed about the costs. One recent study found that caregivers spend about $5,500 per year caring for elderly relatives. Another study concluded that caregivers spent almost $15,000 a year caring for their elderly relative. Avoid treating the person like a child. Older people have experienced life much more deeply than we often appreciate, and have many more life experiences....

TL;DR in Russian:

Общайтесь с пожилым человеком. Заранее обсудите личные границы. Обговорите финансовые вопросы. Проявляйте к человеку уважение. Не нарушайте личное пространство человека. Поддержите человека в его стремлении к самодостаточности и самостоятельности. Оцените по достоинству мудрость и опыт человека в возрасте.


Communication is the process of transferring signals/messages between a sender and a receiver through various methods (written words, nonverbal cues, spoken words). It is also the mechanism we use to establish and modify relationships. Be confident in knowing that you can make worthwhile contributions to conversation. Take time each day to be aware of your opinions and feelings so you can adequately convey them to others. Individuals who are hesitant to speak because they do not feel their input would be worthwhile need not fear. What is important or worthwhile to one person may not be to another and may be more so to someone else. Developing advanced communication skills begins with simple interactions. Communication skills can be practiced every day in settings that range from the social to the professional. New skills take time to refine, but each time you use your communication skills, you open yourself to opportunities and future partnerships.

TL;DR in Russian:

Изучите определение общения. Не бойтесь говорить то, что думаете. Практикуйтесь.


Communication is vital to good leadership. You need to communicate your expectations clearly, whether you're explaining a single project or reminding the entire team about the company's policies.  Make sure you take the time to get to know all of your employees, and let them know that you are available to talk to them whenever necessary.  Communication involves listening as well as talking, so be open to listening to whatever input your employees have for you. When you give workers your undivided attention, they feel respected and are more willing to listen to your guidance. Strictly giving orders without listening can erode worker commitment and enthusiasm. Avoid lecturing workers or sending directives by way of wordy emails. Think about the most important messages you want to convey and communicate them face-to-face or over the phone. Put thought into your email communications to ensure that they are clear, concise, and respectful. Regular meetings with employees will give you the opportunity to ask them about the projects they are working on, hear worker grievances and triumphs, discuss team successes, and brainstorm solutions to new problems. Always be responsive by answering your employees' emails and returning their calls promptly.  Multitasking is very convenient in today's busy world, but sometimes it just doesn't work. Let your employees know that you value their time by putting all distractions aside when you meet with them. You can't expect perfection out of your team, so be careful about over-criticizing or setting goals that are beyond reach. This will only discourage your employees.  You can still expect excellence out of your employees, as long as that excellence is actually attainable.  Take the time to talk to your employees about your expectations and get their feedback. If you encourage an honest discussion, your employees are more likely to let you know if your expectations seem unreasonable. You should have a good understanding of the work volume that already exists and the amount of time...

TL;DR in Russian:

Стремитесь наладить эффективное общение. Придерживайтесь разумных ожиданий. Делегируйте полномочия. Поощряйте людей за успехи. Поощряйте развитие. Улаживайте конфликты.


Communication often becomes more difficult with age. These difficulties may result from age-related conditions such as hearing and vision loss, physical disabilities, or neurological disorders such as dementia or stroke. Notice whether the person you’re talking to is hard of hearing, has memory problems, or otherwise has trouble communicating. Adjust your own communication style so they can participate in the conversation more easily.  For instance, if the person is having a hard time hearing you, move closer to them and speak more loudly. If the person seems to get confused easily, use shorter sentences and be patient as you get your point across. If they have memory loss, avoid asking too many questions at once. Also, avoid "why" questions, which may frustrate them.   If you can, try to find out ahead of time about any communication issues the person may have before you start conversing with them. ” Do not use baby talk, a singsong voice, or inappropriately familiar terms of endearment when you talk to an elderly person. Talk to them like you would any other adult. If they show no signs of confusion, there’s no need to simplify your vocabulary or over-explain things to them. Many older people feel insulted when others talk to them as if they are children, even if those people don’t mean any harm. Give the elderly person your full attention, even if they ramble. Make sure you’re understanding them by asking questions related to what they are saying. Don’t look around the room or check your watch while the other person is talking, since that will make you seem bored. For instance, if the person mentions living in another country, you could ask them to tell you more about that part of their life. Elderly people were once your age, and they’ve experienced the same feelings and many of the same life events as you. Treat the person with the same respect and courtesy you would expect from others, and look for common ground that will help you connect with each other. Think about how you want people to talk to you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте деликатны касательно проблем с коммуникацией. Избегайте использования “языка пожилых”. Внимательно слушайте, когда к вам обращаются. Помните о том, что пожилые люди – такие же люди, как и вы.


Communication problems are some of the most common problems affecting couples at every stage of a relationship. Couples who've been married for 30 years often have communication problems. Couples who've been together two weeks definitely have them.  If something bothers you, bring it up right then. Don't wait to talk until you've simmered and gotten more angry. Address is right then and there. Have regular "state of the relationship" talks. It doesn't have to be a bummer to talk about your relationship if it's a regular thing that you do, not something that you only do when one of you is super pissed. You shouldn't do something for your partner just because you think they'll get off your back if you do it, or because you want to avoid a fight. Learn to do things because it will make your partner happy, which will make you happy. The more you can act from a place of genuine kindness and compassion, the stronger your relationship will be. Relationship and sex therapist Dan Savage coined the phrase "GGG," as a common advice suggested to people struggling in relationships. It means that you should be "good, giving, and game" in all things when it comes to your partner.  Being good means you have your partner's best interest at heart. You want to do right by your love. Being giving means that you are willing to sacrifice for your partner's happiness, provided they're willing to sacrifice for your's. Being game means being up for things with your partner, within reason. Even if you're not necessarily a big fan of monster movie marathons, if it's your partner's favorite, give it a shot every now and then as part of your pact together. Relationships are not a 50/50 deal. They never are. Each person needs to contribute 100% to the relationship. Each should be giving 100% to the relationship. Try to focus more on what you're giving to and putting into the relationship, not on what you're getting out of it. The relationship is a partnership that you must nurture, not something that happens easily while other people put...

TL;DR in Russian:

Учитесь эффективно общаться с партнером. Стройте безусловные отношения. Важно быть добрым, щедрым и азартным партнером. Посвящайте отношениям больше сил и времени, чем ранее.


Community doesn't necessarily have to mean the people in your hometown or city. It simply means a group of people that supports you. Being part of a community can actually help you live longer and more happily and can make you feel less alone.  This is where your passions come in. You can find a community and a place to belong based on things you're interested in. For example: if you're interested in social justice, you might find like-minded people in your area at a rally, or by volunteering at a nonprofit. You can also find community through the internet, on places like Reddit or Tumblr, for example. A lot of these places have search functions that can help you more easily find people with similar interests. All you have to do is reach out and make a move to talk to them. Don't burn bridges. You don't necessarily want to maintain toxic people in your life, but not dumping people dramatically can benefit you in the long run. Even toxic people can do things like write recommendations for you, or introduce you to other people. This is not to say that you don't have the right to protect yourself. If someone is acting in a threatening or derogatory manner to you, you have every right to call it out and to cut them out of your life completely. Remember the 30/30/30 rule. This basically says that 1/3 of the people you meet will love you; 1/3 will hate you no matter what you do; 1/3 simply won't care one way or another. Work on strengthening your relationships with the 1/3 who love you and forget the rest. Instead of worrying about what kind of friends you have, be the person you wish you had as a friend. People will respond to that sort of friendship and you'll find yourself attracting the kind of friends you wanted.  Be supportive of your friends. When something good happens to them, celebrate with them without the sting of jealousy. When something unhappy happens, make sure that you're there to help them. Tell your friends what they mean to you. Be open about their importance in your life, without worrying if...

Compact fluorescent is a generic term used for a variety of bulbs. CFLs use 20-40% less energy to produce the same light or lumens (a measure of light intensity). They are color adjusted to produce light close to real sunlight.   CFLs generate less heat and offer a longer lifespan than incandescent bulbs saving you money on electric bills and protecting the environment from harmful greenhouse gas emissions. Look for Energy Star labels on fluorescent fixtures and lamps for assurance of maximum savings, quality and standards. Compact fluorescent light bulbs are commonly used in desk lamps, floor lamps, under cabinet lamps, table lamps, linear strips, wall sconces, flush mounts, chandeliers, close-to-ceiling or flush mounts, pendants, ceiling clouds, kitchen island lights, path lights, outdoor wall lanterns, outdoor post lanterns, as well as outdoor wall and ceiling mounts. First generation compact fluorescents can not be used in motion sensor fixtures or lights with a dimmer switch; however newer second generation CFLs (that are usually more expensive) may be specifically labeled and sold for that purpose. Choose fluorescent light bulbs for energy conservation and versatility. Fluorescent light bulbs are an energy efficient bulb, using 20-40% less electricity than standard incandescent bulbs lasting up to 20 times longer. Many new compact styles make fluorescent bulbs practical for task lighting. Screw-in types can be used in place of incandescent bulbs in standard lamp sockets. The warmth and softness of the fluorescent light bulbs is improving. Fluorescent light bulbs are commonly used in desk lamps, floor lamps, under-cabinet lamps, table lamps, linear strips, wall sconces, flush mounts, chandeliers, close-to-ceiling mounts, pendants, ceiling clouds, kitchen island lights, path lights, outdoor wall lanterns and outdoor post lanterns. Many of today's lamps use halogen light bulbs. Halogen bulbs produce a whiter light and produce more light (lumens) per watt than standard incandescent bulbs. They most closely...

Companies such as GoToMeeting or Skype let you set up audio/video conferences for a number of people. There are various price points available, from free to hundreds of dollars a year, depending on your needs and level of service required.  You can pay per conference call (and get charged according to how many people call in, how long the call lasts, etc.) or purchase a flat rate service, in which you have unlimited access to a conference bridge at a fixed monthly cost. Generally, only the host pays for the service. Some services will require you to buy hardware and/or add/switch long distance service, but there are prepaid services that will allow you to use your landline telephone, mobile phone, or computer. Consider if you want a toll-free number, or if you want participants to pay long distance charges when they call in. Conference calls can also be used in conjunction with web conferences, so participants can view documents or presentations simultaneously while on the call. Some providers offer this as a package, but you can do this separately (e.g. have all participants go to the same URL or open the same e-mail attachment while on the call). Usually this is a phone number and some kind of password. Test the bridge in advance if you are unfamiliar with the tool you’ll be using. See more tips about organizing a conference call in How to Chair a Conference Call. Make sure you can make the call from a quiet location with minimal background noise. Be on time, or log on to the conference call ten minutes early if possible. Some tools won’t let you log on until the time scheduled and others won’t let anyone communicate until a leader with a special password logs in.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите хорошего провайдера. Получите всю информацию, которая может понадобиться. Сделайте расписание конференций и приглашайте других людей для участия. Выберите уютное место. Звоните. Подождите, пока все участники присоединятся к конференции, и затем начинайте разговор!


Companion animals can provide comfort and joy to a person with AIDS. But animals can also carry parasites that cause infections. Cleaning up after animals for the person can minimize the risk that he or she is infected with a parasite.  Clean up any animal feces for the person, including the kitty litter box. Empty, don’t sift, the cat litter every day. Cat feces can cause toxoplasmosis, while reptiles can carry salmonella and birds may have the fungus cryptococcus or histoplasmosis. Make sure that you and the person with AIDS wash your hands thoroughly after handling pets or cleaning up after animals. Just as coming in contact with animals and their feces can be harmful for a person with AIDS, so can being in the garden. A garden or potting soil often has germs. You and the person should wear work gloves when handling dirt. Washing your hands before and after handling dirt—even with gloves-- is also advisable. Germs can be dangerous for a person with AIDS. Having regular cleaning sessions can help maintain the person’s health and keep infections at bay.  Clean and dust the entire home at least once every week and more often if necessary. Sanitize toilets, tubs, showers, and sinks more frequently and as needed. Use either commercial cleaners or a bleach mixture of ¼ cup bleach to 1 gallon of water (or 1 tablespoon to 1 quart water for smaller jobs). Rinse surfaces with fresh water after disinfecting them. You can use many of the same items a person with AIDS does including utensils and bedding. The key is to wash them regularly or as needed. This can prevent the spread of diseases to the person with AIDS and also minimize your risk of coming into contact with HIV.  Recognize that a person with AIDS doesn’t need separate utensils such as dishes, knives, forks, or spoons. His or her dishes also don’t need special cleaning. Washing this dishes in hot water with soap or dishwasher detergent is plenty to keep everyone safe and healthy. Wash bedding or clothing in hot water at least once a week. If anything is...

Compare data from multiple areas, and use the contrasting population densities to make observations about those areas. For example: if the city of Boonesville includes 60,000 people overs its 8 square miles, then its population density is 7,500/square mile. You can see that the population density of Auburn is far higher than the population density of Boonesville. Consider whether you can use this difference to draw any conclusions about the two cities. Even if you calculate the population density of an area as dense as a large city, the resulting figure will not tell you much about the differences between individual neighborhoods. You may need to find the density for various area scales in order to fully understand a place. Calculate the projected population growth for a given area, then compare the current population density with the predicted future density. Look for census data from the past, and try comparing past population densities with the current figure. Try to understand how a place has changed and will change. It is simple and straightforward to calculate population density in this way, but it may not reveal more intricate details about an area. This is highly dependent upon the size and type of the area for which you are calculating population density. The formula sometimes says more about smaller, densely-inhabited areas than it does about larger areas that include both inhabited and uninhabited land.  Say that you calculate the population density of a county that is home to a huge amount of open land and national forest, but also to a very large city. The population density of the county at large will not tell you much about the density of the city: the actual space where people live. Remember that population density is just an average. It may not correspond exactly to the population count of an area. If not, consider why. Try calculating the density for a smaller area within the original area. Make predictions about an area given when you know about high and low population densities. For...

Compare how she talks to you with how she talks to others. If your partner uses a sweet, caring, and compassionate tone when talking to you, it’s likely she considers you a special person in her life and cares deeply about you. Investing time in a relationship is a major indicator of long term commitment, especially if your partner is trying to balance other commitments like school, work, or family. Someone who truly cares about you will use whatever available time they have to spend some alone time together. Love triggers the release of serotonin in your brain, and it is believed that high levels of serotonin can cause you to think constantly about a partner. So the more your partner calls you or talks to you, the more they are thinking about you, which is a (chemical) indication of their feelings of love for you. While this may seem like a small gesture, it will show she is interested in even the minor details of your life. These check ins will also keep the lines of communication between you open and build a practical, supportive element to your relationship. Perhaps you have opposing political views or different ways of making the best risotto. Regardless of these differences, she should still open to listening to your perspective and treat your views with respect and interest.  If your partner truly cares about you, they should be willing to hear your opinions and ideas, and engage in a civil, respectful discussion about subjects you may not agree on. She should also be comfortable with including you in decisions, from mundane things like where you should eat dinner to high-stake questions like whether she should accept a new position at work. Though she may not always take your advice, she should still be interested in hearing what you have to say and take it into consideration. Partners who truly care will give you the benefit of the doubt and will not snoop around on your cellphone or check your credit card bills to determine where you’ve been or who you’ve been with as they will be committed to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Прислушайтесь к тону ее речи, когда она говорит с вами. Заметьте, желает ли она потратить большую часть своего времени с вами и часто ли звонит вам. Подумайте о том, спрашивает ли она, как прошел ваш день, когда она видит вас. Обращайте внимание на знаки, уважает ли она ваше мнение и ваше решение. Обратите внимание, следит ли она за вами или спрашивает вас постоянно, где вы. Подумайте, довольна ли ваша подруга вами.


Compare how the child acts now to how the child acted before the trauma. If you see extreme behavior, or a noticeable change from their normal behavior, then something is probably wrong.  A child may seem to develop a new personality (e.g. a confident girl turning into a shaky people-pleaser overnight), or may switch between several strong moods (e.g. a boy who flip-flops between withdrawn and aggressive). A traumatized child may cry and whine over relatively small things that wouldn't have bothered them so much before.  A child may become extremely upset when reminded of anything related to the trauma - for example, they may become highly anxious or cry when they see an object or person that reminds them of what happened. The child may revert to younger behavior, such as thumb-sucking and wetting the bed. This is especially common in cases of sexual abuse, but can be seen in other forms of trauma as well. Children with developmental disabilities may experience regression more easily, which can make it harder to figure out whether the regression is related to trauma or not. Traumatized children, especially those harmed by an adult, may attempt to appease adults or avoid angering them. You may notice avoidance of attention, complete compliance, and/or overachieving to turn into a "perfect" child. Traumatized children may act out, become frustrated easily, and start throwing more temper tantrums. They may even become aggressive towards others. A child who has been traumatized may seem defiant or frequently get in trouble. This may be more apparent in school. Children often react to trauma and stress with physical symptoms which may not have an obvious cause. These symptoms may worsen when the child must do something related to the trauma (e.g. going to school after abuse at school), or when the child is stressed.

TL;DR in Russian:

Compare the left and right ankle readings, as well as the DP and PT artery readings of both ankles. Whichever number is the highest from each ankle will be used to calculate the ABI. the systolic blood pressure of the ankle by the systolic blood pressure of the arm. You will calculate the ABI for each leg individually. Use the highest value from your readings of the left ankle arteries and divide it by the value of the brachial artery. Then repeat this process with the results from the right ankle.  Example: The systolic blood pressure of the left ankle is 120 and the systolic blood pressure of the arm is 100. 120/100=1.20. The normal resting ankle brachial index is 1.0 to 1.4. The closer the ABI of the patient to 1, the better the result is. This means that the arm blood pressure should be as close as possible to the ankle blood pressure.  An ABI of less than 0.4 suggests severe peripheral arterial disease. The patient may develop non-healing ulcer or gangrene. An ABI of 0.41-0.90 indicates mild to moderate peripheral artery disease and warrants further tests like CT, MRI, or angiography. An ABI of 0.91-1.30 indicates normal vessels. However, a value between 0.9-0.99 may cause pain during exercise. An ABI >1.3 indicates non-compressible and severely calcified vessels that artificially raise the blood pressure. Long standing diabetes or chronic kidney disease may lead to this state.

Compared to a larger hole, a split seam is fairly easy to deal with. This means: where two pieces of fabric were joined by stitching, the thread is broken or missing and the seam is now open, creating a "hole." In most cases, you can simply sew the seam back together. This can be inside a pocket, causing all your change to drop through. It may also appear in a sleeve seam, causing your elbow to stick out.

Compared to dry beans, canned beans are a mixed bag. Some cans contain beans that are "plain" except for the preservative fluid they are sitting in. Other cans contain beans that are sitting in a sauce. Some cans even contain beans that are meant to be heated and eaten on their own. A quick check of the label should tell you which type of beans you have. When in doubt about how to use canned beans, check the back of the label. Many will include sample recipes and serving suggestions. Plain canned beans usually come in a clear, slimy brine. This works well for keeping them fresh and it's perfectly safe to eat, but it can taste unpleasantly "artificial." All it takes to get rid of this gross substance is to pour the contents of the can into a strainer and rinse them with cold water for a few seconds. Canned beans come pre-cooked, so all you need to do is heat them up. If you're using plain beans that you've just rinsed, add a small amount of water to the container you're heating the beans in. If you're using beans in a sauce, you can usually just heat the beans in their liquid without any extra work. If you're using a microwave, be sure to heat the beans in a microwave-safe container like a ceramic or glass bowl (rather than a metal or plastic one). If you're camping, you can cook a can of beans-in-sauce directly in its can. Simply open the top of the can and carefully place it over your campfire. This is easiest if your fire pit has a metal grate, but if it doesn't, you can just balance the can on a rock near the edge of the fire. Be careful — it will get very hot. Since canned beans are already cooked, it's easy to use them in other other recipes. If these recipes require cooking, add the beans at the end of the cooking process so they don't over-cook. For cold recipes, you can usually use canned beans as-is.  In the section below, you'll find a few recipe suggestions that you can use red kidney beans in. Except where noted, you can use cooked dry beans or plain canned beans interchangeably.

Compared to other yo yo tricks, the sleeper is fairly simple. Most basic yo yos of a reasonable level of quality should be able to perform a sleeper without any problems. However, some cheap "toy" yo yos which are poorly constructed may be almost impossible to perform a sleeper with. If you have one of these types of yo yos, consider upgrading to a higher-quality model to make it much easier to do sleepers and any other tricks that you may want to try. While certain high-end yo yo models can be expensive, most serviceable ordinary yo yos won't cost you more than $10-$20. For a stronger spin, consider buying a model with metal construction or added bearings — the extra weight gives the yo yo more momentum as it spins, making longer sleepers possible. To do a sleeper, you'll begin exactly as you would for a gravity throw. Loop the yo yo's string loosely around the middle finger of your dominant hand. Hold it upright in your palm so that the skinny end is sitting against the flesh of your hand. Curl your fingers around it slightly to support it. Hold the yo yo out in front of you with your elbow bent and at your side.

Приобретите йо-йо хорошего качества. Держите йо-йо в руке, ладонь направлена вверх.


Compared to the other players, the point guard usually has a special relationship with his coach. The point guard is responsible for running the coach's offensive plays on the field but also must have the knowledge of the coach's overarching game plan necessary to call plays on the fly when needed. For these reasons, a point guard will need to understand the coach's offensive playbook better than anyone else on the team (and will need to be able to execute the coach's instructions as he gives them during the game). In addition, since he's usually in control of the ball at the start of the play, the point guard is tasked with performing certain special duties like calling a time out. Knowing when to do these things requires him to be aware of both his coach's plan and the circumstances of the game (especially late in the game when time outs and other stalling tactics are common). A point guard who can't communicate with his teammates on the court can be a major liability to his team. Point guards should be able to use their voice and body to direct their teammates to set up scoring opportunities, execute plays, and so on. A big part of developing these communication skills is putting in lots of practice as a team so that every member knows what sorts of signals to expect and how each member communicates as a player. The point guard may want to talk to his teammates and agree on a system of signals, code words and so on to keep his team's strategy secret on the court. For instance, if the point guard raises a fist when he's at the top of the key, this can be a signal for the small forward to cut back the three point line and get ready for a pass. Because of your unique position, your other teammates (especially inexperienced ones) may look to you to "set the tone" for your games and practices. A good point guard takes the game seriously, puts in hard work at practice, listens to his coach, and seeks to improve his game outside of practice. Just as importantly, he also encourages his teammates to do the same. By...

Compared to women, men have almost all of the same options for gym tops available (with the obvious exceptions of halter tops, etc.) Men at the gym look best in tops that are functional, comfortable, and breathable. Many men choose to wear ordinary cotton tee shirts, though, as always, modern moisture-wicking fabrics are an even more comfortable choice and usually look great as well. If you want to show off your arms, you also have the option of wearing an A-frame tee (tank top) or a sleeveless tee. These types of shirts sometimes even come with long slits along the sides to give a view of your abs and lats — though this style is sometimes considered "bro-y", it provides great ventilation and is not usually prohibited in gym dress codes. Generally, it's a little less acceptable for men to wear very short shorts to the gym than it is for women. Showing upper thigh can be considered a fashion faux pas unless a man is on a cross country team, so, if you typically wear shorts, it's usually best to opt for longer styles. Even shorts that hang past most men's knees aren't usually considered too baggy, so don't feel any need to shy away from longer styles. While some men like to take off their shirts to cool down during a long jog or while playing sports, it's sometimes considered rude to do so at the gym. At gyms where this isn't common, taking off your shirt can make you look like a vain "meathead" in comparison to the other people exercising. In addition, if you get very sweaty when you exercise, removing your shirt can cause you to leave behind more sweat where you work out, which can gross out others. However, it's definitely worth noting that some men swear by the act of exercising shirtless, claiming it as a powerful motivating factor. If you're unsure whether it's considered rude to exercise shirtless at  your gym, talk to the staff or simply observe the other members for a few days. Like taking off your shirt, letting out excessive noise while you  exercise (especially while you lift weights) can make you...

Compatibility is incredibly important. That special person may pass every future-spouse test with flying colors, but when you're together, you may find that there's just a lack of...something. Maybe you just don't really "get" each other; maybe you always end up bickering; maybe you just can't talk without running out of things to say after a few minutes. If you're not compatible, you're not compatible, and there's nothing you can do to change that. Sexual attraction is different than compatibility -- it wears off. Compatibility means that your personalities really work well together, and that things just click for you more often than not. Though you may have been wanting to get married for twenty years, you shouldn't start running down the aisle after two weeks with the person you think is Mr. Right. Even if you just have "that feeling," it's very risky to marry someone you've known for just a few months, or even just a year. Give the relationship enough time to know that your feelings aren't just based on attraction, that you can get through some ups and downs together, and that you can really truly see a lifetime of happiness with that person. You may think that you're absolutely sure after just a few months, but this won't give you enough time to test the relationship. You may be absolutely gaga for your special someone, but you need to have the sense that he's feeling it too. Or -- you need to make sure that he's not crazy about you, while you're just feeling "pretty happy." Both of you shouldn't be crazy about each other and completely excited for the rest of your lives together to move on. Though marriage will naturally change two people as they become bonded more closely, make sure that the person you want to be with lets you truly be yourself instead of trying to be some ideal person. If your friends or family tell you you're not being yourself around that person, it's a bad sign. But you will know if you really can't be who you are around that person, because you'll feel yourself holding back. You...

Compensatory vision therapy focuses on stimulating the brain area involved in vision. It includes training with prisms, scanning, and visual field awareness systems. The movement of images from a non-seeing site to a seeing-site helps adapt the visual field and the associated brain area, improving vision. The goal of restorative vision therapy is to stimulate the various neural connections involved in vision within brain. It includes many specific components for each type of vision impairment that occurs after stroke. It focuses particularly on the point of the eye which has the highest amount of neuronal connections. This therapy has the highest level of recovery potential. Prisms are used to correct different types of visual problems. The kind of prism and their placement may vary, depending upon the presenting signs and symptoms. For example:  In the case of double vision, the prism is placed on a glass lens to realign the abnormal positioning of the eye's gaze. In the case of visual neglect, an individual with visual neglect on the left side of his visual field would use a prism that can mirror items on his left side, to the right side of his visual field. Low vision aids are designed to help the partially sighted population. They are divided into three categories, including optical aids (hand held magnifiers, stand magnifiers, telescopes), non optical aids (enlarged prints, high intensity lamps, high contrast objects, microfiche readers), and electronic low vision aids (closed circuit TV, opaque projectors, slide projection). All of these things can greatly help your vision. Some other aids are tactile visual aids, auditory vision, spelled speech, and direct stimulation of visual cortex. Surgery is usually not an option to solve post stroke related visual problems, since the cause is not a physical trauma to the eye. However, in some instances. surgery can be recommended to correct double vision. Eye muscle surgery is usually helpful for cases of double vision caused by the narrowing of the eyes.  The...

Complete a series of jumping jacks. Do a light jog for around 5 minutes. Try jumping rope slowly for the warm-up period. The goal is to get the blood flowing to your muscles, so that you’ll avoid an injury when stretching. Bouncing in and out of a stretching pose can lead to muscle and joint damage. Instead, slowly ease yourself in and out of each position. Continue to hold your stretch until you feel a slight burning in your muscles. This sensation usually develops after 30 seconds or more of a stretch. Exactly how long you hold a stretch will really depend on your body and fitness level. Some people will get a benefit from a 30-second stretch, whereas others will need to hold the same position for a minute. You might feel some muscle soreness as you move into each stretching position. This is normal and to be expected with a regular stretching routine. However, if you feel a deep, sharp, or stabbing pain, then pull out of your stretching position right away. Continuing to stretch with intense pain can cause joint damage. Stretching pain is most likely to come from your joints, such as your knees or hips. While it is really tempting to stretch every day, you can easily overdo it and overwork your muscles. Instead, give your muscles and joints adequate recovery time by setting aside a period every other day devoted to stretching and preparation for the splits. A 30-minute stretching work-out, including warm-up, is usually adequate.

Complete a series of timed rounds (8 rounds x 3 minutes, with 1 minute rest in between) and focus on your footwork. In rounds 1 and 2, circle the bag to the right, feeding a jab for every one to two steps you take. In rounds 3 and 4, circle the bag to the left, feeding a cross punch, a straight lined punch with your dominant hand, for every one to two steps. In rounds 5 and 6, circle the bag to the right and feed a 1-2 combo per every one to two steps. In rounds 7 and 8, circle the bag to the left and complete a 1-2-3 combo per every one to two steps.  The goal of footwork drills is to practice moving with the bag instead of waiting for it to return to you. Walk with the bag--move with it and stay loose to avoid hopping around the bag in a stiff stance. Keep the bag an arms length away from you. Complete a series of timed rounds (6 rounds x 3 minutes, with 1 minute rest in between) while focusing on improving your speed. Stand 2–3 feet (0.6–0.9 m) distance from the bag. Divide each round into 15 second intervals. In rounds 1 and 2, explode forward towards the bag in a lunge motion and jab the bag for fifteen seconds. Rest for 15 seconds and repeat until the round is over. During rounds 3 and 4, execute the same drill but substitute the jab with a 1-2 combo. Complete the same drill in rounds 5 and 6, substituting the 1-2 combo with a hook punch.  Don’t focus on your technique during speed drills--work on contracting your muscle quickly instead of perfecting your form. Bend your knees throughout the drill to avoid locking your joints. Focus on your breathing. Short, small breaths will help increase the speed of your hands. Another way to improve your speed is to use a speed bag, a small punching bag. Stand less than an arm’s length away from the speed bag with squared shoulders. Adjust the bag’s height until the bottom is level with your eyes. Keep both hands near the bag. Hit the bag with an open hand--this affords you more control over the bag--and move your hands in a small circles. Hit the bag twice with...

Complete the steps that you have identified in the order that you have listed them. Double check each of your answers as you work to ensure accuracy. As you complete each step, you may also want to compare your answers to the estimates you came up with for each step as well as your overall estimate for the problem’s answer. Ask yourself, “Do my answers match or closely resemble my estimates?” If they do not match up, consider why. Check your answers to see if you have completed all of the steps correctly. If your plan is not working, go back to the planning stage and make a new plan. Don’t be discouraged if this happens, mistakes are common when you are just learning how to do something and you will learn from these mistakes. Accept your mistakes and move on. Try not to dwell on them or get upset. When you have solved the problem correctly, look back at your process. Taking a moment to reflect on the problem and how you solved it will help you the next time you encounter a similar problem. It will also help you to identify any concepts that you need to learn more about and practice.   .

Complete the tasks which will benefit you the most in the long run first. You’ll need to identify the difference between “high-value” tasks (those which will benefit you the most in the long term) versus “low-value” tasks (tasks which may be easier, but will offer fewer benefits). Avoiding the less pleasant aspects of work doesn’t make them disappear. Building up a huge hunk of the bad stuff to deal with all at once, after you’ve completed the enjoyable stuff, is just going to leave a sour taste in your mouth at the end of a project.  Make lists. Enough can’t be said about the anti-procrastination benefits of seeing your work in front of you, and crossing it off as you finish it. Each list should be long enough to keep your workload in perspective, but not so long that your day feels paralyzingly demanding. One tactic is to divvy your seemingly unmanageable task into manageable chunks, then sprinkle those less-enjoyable aspects of a task into that other stuff that you really like. Stick to a schedule: physically writing out to-dos and calendars isn’t necessary for everyone, but establishing a regular schedule can help you efficiently take care of business. Scheduling the work you dislike for a specific day—and then pushing it out of your mind to avoid stress on other days—might help you conquer unhelpful procrastination habits. Follow through on the tasks you begin. Finishing one project will teach you exponentially more than a dozen fizzled-out attempts, even if you never want to look at that project again. Sometimes you’ll find yourself bogged down in work that seems, now that you’ve toiled away at it for a week, misguided in its goal. If the project has a projected timeline that will take up a great deal of your time moving forward, it’s sometimes best to reassess whether you’re spending your time well (see above, about “high-value” tasks versus “low-value” tasks). So how do you know when you should drop a project? Honest introspection, and self-awareness. If you find yourself thinking this often—and...

Completely peel each shrimp ensuring that there are no pieces of tail or legs left behind. Peel them from the middle of their torso, where the legs are located, out. Once peeled, carefully cut them in half lengthwise. For the carrot, slice off each end and peel the outer layer. Chop the carrot into smaller pieces about two-inch each. Julienne each two inch piece into smaller matchstick-sized pieces. If you love cucumber, feel free to add to the recipe. Not only will the cucumber add to the taste, but it will also add crunch to the rolls. Remember to peel the cucumber and julienne into matchstick sized pieces. Gather your ingredients together to speed up the wrapping process. Keep your carrots, shrimp, noodles, mint, lettuce and bean sprouts together as a wrapping station. Having a wrapping station is especially helpfully if cooking a large amount of spring rolls or working with your kids to create a fun assembly line. When storing your spring rolls, keep them laid on the side with the exposed wrapper. This will prevent the wrapping from lifting or the spring roll from becoming undone. As Vietnamese spring rolls are eaten uncooked, your rolls are now ready to be devoured. Try serving these spring rolls with peanut sauce. This can be made by mixing hoisin sauce with peanut butter, and a sprinkle of water. Adding sriracha for some heat.

Completing a successful project requires a significant amount of time and work, which means evaluating your priorities and planning your course of action. Schedule specific research time and plan daily, weekly, or monthly targets for your progress (e.g. completing a detailed project outline by the first week). Keep track of your schedule with a smartphone app such as Schedule Planner, a free iPhone app that organizes your tasks and deadlines. When looking up books, news articles, or websites, always look for the credentials of the author or creator of a text. Search for the name of the writer(s) to see if they have already been published, or cited in the work of others. Avoid anonymously-written text or any sensational writing that may be geared towards attracting readers rather than conveying facts. When researching a topic, check the date of publication of all of the reference materials that you use. Current information is always ideal, but it is imperative to find the most recent data in dynamic fields such as the sciences. Historical texts, on the other hand, would be an exception.

Completing the square is another way to find the vertex of a quadratic equation. For this method, when you get to the end, you'll be able to find your x and y coordinates right away, instead of plugging the x coordinate back in to the original equation. Let's say you're working with the following quadratic equation: x2+4x+1=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+1=0}. In this case, the coefficient of the x2{\displaystyle x^{2}}  term is 1, so you can skip this step. Dividing each term by 1 would not change anything. Dividing each term by 0, however, will change everything. The constant term is the term without a coefficient. In this case, it is 1. Move 1 to the other side of the equation by subtracting 1 from both sides. Here's how you do it:  x2+4x+1=0{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+1=0} x2+4x+1−1=0−1{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+1-1=0-1} x2+4x=−1{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x=-1} To do this, simply find (b2)2{\displaystyle ({\frac {b}{2}})^{2}} and add the result to both sides of the equation. Plug in 4 for b{\displaystyle b}, since4x{\displaystyle 4x} is the b-term of this equation.  (42)2=22=4{\displaystyle ({\frac {4}{2}})^{2}=2^{2}=4}. Now, add 4 to both sides of the equation to get the following:  x2+4x+4=−1+4{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+4=-1+4} x2+4x+4=3{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+4=3} Now you will see that x2+4x+4{\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+4} is a perfect square. It can be rewritten as (x+2)2=3{\displaystyle (x+2)^{2}=3} You can find your x{\displaystyle x} coordinate by simply setting (x+2)2{\displaystyle (x+2)^{2}} equal to zero. So when (x+2)2=0{\displaystyle (x+2)^{2}=0}, what would x{\displaystyle x} have to be? The variable x{\displaystyle x} would have to be -2 to balance out the +2, so your x{\displaystyle x} coordinate is -2. Your y-coordinate is simply the constant term on the other side of the equation. So, y=3{\displaystyle y=3}. You can also do a shortcut and just take the opposite sign of the number in parentheses to get the x-coordinate. So the vertex of the equation x2+4x+1=(−2,−3){\displaystyle x^{2}+4x+1=(-2,-3)}.

Complex matrices have elements with a real and imaginary component. While you can take an ordinary transpose of these matrices, most practical calculations involve the conjugate transpose instead. Matrix C =2+i     3-2i0+i     5+0i The complex conjugate changes the sign of the imaginary components, without altering the real components. Perform this operation for all elements of the matrix. complex conjugate of C =2-i     3+2i0-i     5-0i Take an ordinary transposition of the result. The matrix you end up with is the conjugate transpose of the original matrix. conjugate transpose of C = CH =2-i        0-i3+2i     5-0i

Complimenting him shows that you’re paying attention. Try to keep your compliments short and direct and then let it go. He may respond by saying “thanks,” or he may just smile at you.  For example, you could say something like, “I thought you did a great job giving your presentation in class today.” To compliment his looks, say something like, “Your new haircut looks really good,” or “That sweater really brings out the color of your eyes.” To be a little more flirty, you could say something like, “You always make me laugh!” Making appropriate physical contact, like touching his arm or shoulder, is a great way to gauge how he feels about you. If he smiles and doesn’t draw away from you, that shows he is okay with your affection. If he does pull back, that means he isn’t interested in being that close to you. Small moments of physical contact can help build up more of a bond between the two of you, even if it’s just a friendly one. and text him to talk more outside of school. For your first text to him, say something like, “Hey Josh, this is Ryan. What are you up to?” To start other conversations, you could ask what he thought of school that day, if he started his homework yet, or what he is doing that evening. If he sends back really short texts or doesn’t respond at all, don’t send him multiple texts in a row. Just let it go until he reaches out to you or until you have another legitimate reason to text him. Pay attention to what is going on in his life, like a big test, a sports game or competition, or even something fun, like a vacation. Mention these things when you see him in person. If you have his phone number, you could even send him an encouraging text.  For example, you could send him a text that says, “Good luck at the game tomorrow!” Follow up on important events by asking about them. For example, try saying something like, “I hope you had fun at the away game over the weekend. How did things go?” Before a big test, you could write him a note that says, “Good luck on the test! I know you’ll do...

Compliments don't have any worth other than what we give them — they're not things to be exchanged for favors, used to flatter people we need to like us, or given out for no reason. Compliments are only meaningful when the person giving the compliment truly believes in them. Giving a fake compliment is a white lie at best and, at worst, can be seriously harmful, so don't do it.  For example, let's say that a guy friend has just gotten off stage after bombing at the talent show. If might at first seem like a good idea to lift his spirits with a fake compliment like, "Wow! That was amazing! Great job!" However, since he probably knows that he didn't do well, this may make him feel even worse. In this case, it's probably best to go with a sincere option like "Hey, don't worry. You'll nail it next time." Study of the brain shows that we use the patterns and stresses of speech to distinguish white lies from truth more so than non-spoken cues. If you're not being sincere, the guy will hear it in your voice. Most of the time, gracious compliments will be greatly appreciated. However, it's not always appropriate to give compliments — doing so at inopportune times can be slightly embarrassing at best (and a major faux pas at worst). Below are just a few examples of times when you won't want to give a guy a compliment, or at least will want to keep your compliment short and polite:  At solemn occasions (funerals, memorials, etc.) After he's just been embarrassed When his jealous significant other is around When he's concentrating on something difficult It's worth being aware that some guys can get embarrassed if they receive a compliment (especially a romantic one) when they're in front of their friends. In this case, since the guy is worried about saving face in front of his buddies, your compliment may have the opposite effect as you intended. at him. Nothing spells sincerity like a smile! For some guys (especially those who are attracted to you), the simple pleasure of seeing your smile can be a compliment in...

Compliments ease tension between two people and help make their interactions more positive. If you are not very confident, you might find it difficult to take compliments from people. Maybe you become uncomfortable or reject the compliments outright. In order to become more confident, you need to learn how to accept a compliment gracefully. The next time someone pays you a compliment, resist the urge to reject it and just thank them for the kind words.  For example, you can respond to a compliment by simply saying, “Thank you. I appreciate that.” Or even a simple, yet enthusiastic, “Thanks!” will do. Make sure that you learn how to compliment others as well. Complimenting others will help take the attention off of yourself, which may help you to be more confident. Your ability to pay genuine compliments to others will also help to demonstrate your confidence. Sometime people lack confidence because they rely too much on how other people react to them. In order to be more confident, you will have to accept that you cannot change other people and you cannot do anything about their reactions to you. All that you can control is yourself. Work on becoming more accepting of other people as they are. Avoid lecturing others on their faults or trying to get other people to change. Part of being confident is projecting a positive attitude, even if other people try to bring you down. Remember that you are in control of your future, your goals, and your own happiness. If people try to damage your confidence, remind yourself of your accomplishments and admirable traits. Keep the glass half full! Try smiling or laughing, even if you don’t feel like it. Research has shown that even forced smiling and laughing can help you to feel more optimistic and confident. Staying calm in a difficult situation is not always easy, but remaining calm when a problem arises will help you to be more confident and will demonstrate to others that you are a confident person. Try taking a few deep breaths when you become overwhelmed, stressed,...

Compost needs nitrogen and carbon, as well as air and water, in order to function properly so try to make sure that there is an available balance of all four components in order to keep the pile working properly. Typical carbon-based ingredients for compost include straw, leaves, cardboard, and shredded newspapers. However, gardeners should only add black and white or grey newsprint because colored sheets may contain potentially toxic chemicals. Add some nitrogen-based fertilizer, such as blood meal or alfalfa pellets, to the compost pile from time to time to keep it working. This is especially helpful during cold periods. Nitrogen not only generates heat, it is part of a balanced diet for all microbes. Gardeners can also add kitchen scraps, such as vegetable peels and coffee grounds, for a higher nitrogen content if the pile stops decomposing like it should. Where possible, compost piles should be located in sunny places, as this will increase heat and speed up the decomposition process. Start the composting process in the garage, basement or nearby shed and eliminate some trips to the compost bin. Cooler temperatures will reduce the usual unpleasant odors. Simply place the compost materials in a large bucket or small garbage can and take them out to the compost pile once a week or whenever the container gets full. Layer kitchen scraps between layers of “browns” or paper products to help reduce odors. Diseased plant parts, dog manure, cat manure, coal ashes, and black walnut leaves should all be kept out of the compost pile because each of these things are known to be harmful in their own fashion. Meat and dairy products should also be kept out of the compost bin because they will certainly attract unwanted attention from neighborhood animals.

TL;DR in Russian:

Убедитесь, что в вашей компостной куче имеется баланс азота, углерода, воздуха и воды. Добавьте в компостную кучу углеродосодержащие материалы. Используйте азотосодержащие удобрения.

Composting foods that can be organically disposed of at home is a great way to reduce the amount of food you throw in the trash. It's good for the environment, and can give you some useful compost for the garden. Homemade compost will fertilize your soil and help with any gardening you do.  Use food scraps such as fruits and vegetables, coffee grounds, eggshells, nutshells and tea bags. Do not dispose of meat, dairy or oils this way. Add the food waste to cardboard, newspaper, vegetation and other organic materials in your compost pile. Mix it in with soil and dirt so the food can be broken down. When you add new material to the pile, turn it with a garden fork or other tool to let fresh oxygen in to help with the composting process. If you don't have a yard, you can still compost at home with an earthworm farm. If you don't have the space, or are uncertain about composting at home, you can still deal with your food waste responsibly by visiting your local recycling centre. Lots of recycling centres will have facilities to deal with food waste and composting. Generally you will be able to bring your food waste and either leave it with someone there, or dump it into the appropriate container.  Be sure you check the specific guidelines for your centre before you go. You may need to separate your food waste in a particular way before you take in it. Make sure you know what food waste they accept and what they don't. For example, they will not take meat, but they will take organic waste, such as fruit and vegetables. Your local government will be able to provide details on recycling facilities near you. Depending on where you live, you may be able to use a food waste scheme that is run by your local authority. It is becoming increasingly common for local authorities to provide a small food waste composting bin to households, which is then picked up alongside the regular trash collection.  If you are uncertain about this, contact your local authority to find out if your neighbourhood is part of a scheme. Talk to...

Compounding interest accounts can increase even faster if you make regular contributions to them, such as adding a monthly amount to a savings account. The formula is longer than that used to calculate compound interest without regular payments, but follows the same principles. The formula is as follows: FV=P(1+ic)n∗c+R((1+ic)n∗c−1)ic{\displaystyle FV=P(1+{\frac {i}{c}})^{n*c}+{\frac {R((1+{\frac {i}{c}})^{n*c}-1)}{\frac {i}{c}}}}The variables within the equation are also the same as the previous equation, with one addition:  "P" is the principal. "i" is the annual interest rate. "c" is the compounding frequency and represents how many times the interest is compounded each year. "n" is the number of years. "R" is the amount of the monthly contribution. To compute the future value of this type of account, you will need the principal (or present value) of the account, the annual interest rate, the compounding frequency, the number of years being measured, and the amount of your monthly contribution. This information should be in your investment agreement.  Be sure to convert the annual interest rate into a decimal. Do this by dividing the rate by 100. For example, using the above 3.45% interest rate, we would divide 3.45 by 100 to get 0.0345. For compounding frequency, simply use the number of times per year that the interest compounds. This means annually is 1, monthly is 12, and daily is 365 (don't worry about leap years). Continuing with the example from above, imagine that you decide to also contribute $100 per month to your account. This account, with a principal value of $5,000, compounds monthly and earns 3.45% annual interest. We will measure the growth of the account over two years. The completed formula using this information is as follows: FV=$5,000(1+0.034512)2∗12+$100((1+0.034512)2∗12−1)0.034512{\displaystyle FV=\$5,000(1+{\frac {0.0345}{12}})^{2*12}+{\frac {\$100((1+{\frac {0.0345}{12}})^{2*12}-1)}{\frac {0.0345}{12}}}} Again, remember to use the proper order of operations to do so. This means...

Compromising means that you come up with a solution that both people can feel okay about even if neither gets exactly what he or she wants.  A compromise is a good way to defuse a dispute or to address a family problem.  The first step is trying to figure out whether the problem is solvable. That depends on the nature of the problem, and what’s already been done to solve it. If you’ve tried and tried and keep getting the same result, that may be different. But consider what points of common ground you have with the other person, and what points you would be willing to give in on.  If you don’t give in on anything, you’re less likely to make headway in the dispute. One technique to develop compromise is for both people in the dispute to sit down and draw two circles that relate to the family problem. In the first circle, write down everything you’re not willing to compromise on. In the outer circle, write down the areas where you are willing to bend. Then, share the circles. There are some families that don't function well as a group. We've all been in dysfunctional groups where there's a negative dynamic at play. Sometimes, this comes out when everyone's together.  Instead of broaching painful family problems at holiday gatherings or a big family dinner, try to figure out who the conflict is really between. If it's between you and one other family member, the rest of the family may feel very uncomfortable being dragged into it, because no one likes to be forced to take a side. Instead, ask the family member in question to meet you for lunch or coffee. Talking one-on-one in a neutral space can be a much better way to redress whatever grievances you have or they might have. People will say things individually that they would hesitate to say in a group. Don’t try talking to the family member when you’re distracted, working on a big work project, fielding a bunch of phone calls, doing the dishes, or the like. Instead, put everything down to focus on the issue and them. Although a lot of disputes can be handled...

Compulsive shoppers often cannot control their spending habits and become emotional spenders. They "shop till they drop" and then they keep shopping. But compulsive shopping and spending generally makes a person feel worse, rather than better, about themselves.  Compulsive shopping usually affects women more than men. Women with compulsive shopping issues usually have racks of clothing with the tags still on them. They will go to the mall with the intention of buying just one item and come home with bags of clothing. Compulsive shopping can be a seasonal balm for depression, anxiety, and loneliness during the holiday season. It can also occur when a person feels depressed, lonely and angry. Do you go on weekly shopping sprees? Do you continually spend more than you can afford?  Do you get a certain rush when you go shopping and buying things you don't need? You may feel a certain "high" when buying many things on a weekly basis. Notice if you have large amounts of debt on your credit card or multiple credit cards. You may also hide your purchases from concerned family members or partners. Or you may try to cover up your spending by taking on a part-time job to supplement your spending habits. Individuals who have a compulsive spending problem will likely be in denial and have a hard time admitting they have a problem. Compulsive shopping is considered an addiction. So talking to a professional therapist or going into a support group for compulsive shoppers are both important ways you can address the issue and work to resolve it. During therapy, you may identify the underlying issues behind your compulsive spending and acknowledge the dangers of over spending. Therapy can also offer healthy alternative ways to cope with your emotional issues.

Computer monitors are usually made with an aspect ratio of 4:3, 5:3, 16:9, or 16:10. To find the aspect ratio, compare the length to the height and reduce the numbers if necessary.  If the length is 16 inches (40.6 cm) and the height is 10 inches (25.4 cm), the aspect ratio is 16:10. If the length is 25 inches (63.5 cm) and the height is 15 inches (38.1 cm), the aspect ratio is 25:15, which can be divided by 5 to reduce it to 5:3. The diagonal measurement is what is usually referred to when describing the size of the monitor. Use a tape measure or ruler to find the distance between, for instance, the top left corner of the screen and the bottom right corner of the screen. Don’t include the bevel or frame that borders the screen. If the screen is too large to measure diagonally or if you don’t want to smudge it, you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the diagonal distance. Square the screen’s height and the screen’s width, add the 2 numbers together, then find the square root of the sum, which is the diagonal measurement. For example, if the height is 10 inches (25.4 cm), multiply that by itself (10x10=100). Then, multiply the length, 16 inches (40.6 cm), by itself (16x16=256). Add the 2 numbers together (100+256=356), then find the square root of the sum (√356=18.9).
