Laptops, mobile phones, and tablets can all be used to phone London using Wi-Fi. There are many apps that will work on these devices; often these apps are cheaper than traditional phones. Wi-Fi hotspots are available at many cafes, libraries, or restaurants. If you don’t have access to Wi-Fi at your home, look for one of these hotspots to connect to Wi-Fi. You will need to add the phone number to your contacts. Open your address book and enter a plus sign (+) followed by the phone number; the plus sign indicates that the entry is an international number. Remove any leading zeroes, and do not include the exit code.  Include the country code of 44. You should also include the area code if dialing a landline. A phonebook entry for a London landline should look like this: +44 20 XXXX XXXX. A London mobile number will not include the area code and will look like: +44 7XXX XXX XXX. To place the call using WhatsApp, you open the app and then open a chat with the person you want to call. Then, select the phone button on the top of the screen to make the call. FaceTime is included on almost all Apple devices. To place a call, open the app and use your Apple ID to login. iPhone users will automatically be logged in.  Type in the email address or phone number of the person you want to contact. Next, select either the audio or video icon to place the call. The video icon will allow you to video chat, while the audio icon will have sound but no picture. Make sure the person you are calling also has FaceTime. FaceTime can only be used to make calls if both parties have the app. After logging into Skype, select the call phones icon. The dialing pad will then appear on the screen. The current calling rates, based on the selected country, will also appear.   Select the United Kingdom from the drop-down menu. This menu is located above the dial pad. Once you select the UK, the correct country code will be automatically entered.  Type in the phone number you want to call. Remember that if you want to phone a landline, you will...

Large bristles, unlike smaller ones, are less likely to snag on individual strands, making them perfect for most synthetic wigs and extensions. If you’re cleaning a wig with tight curls, use your fingers instead of a comb to avoid damaging the hair. If you have difficulty combing through the hair, spray it with water or a wig detangler to loosen the strands. Fill a basin with enough cool or lukewarm water to completely cover your hair. Then, pour in around 1 to 2 capfuls of a mild, synthetic-safe shampoo, using a bit more for large wigs and a bit less for small extensions. Mix the water and shampoo together to create a slightly soapy solution. Make sure your hair is fully stretched out, then place it in the tub. Press it down until it is fully submerged, then let it soak for 5 to 10 minutes. The shampoo will help remove dirt and grime from the hair, making it cleaner and easier to soften. While the hair soaks, swish it around by pushing it up and down and moving it from left to right. Use gentle motions so the hair doesn’t tangle up. Avoid scrubbing or pulling the hair, as it can damage or even tear off the strands. After 5 minutes, remove the hair from the tub and place it under a stream of cool water. This will help remove the shampoo without changing the hair’s shape or removing any outer coatings.

Large meals and large quantities of fluids can intensify nausea symptoms. Whenever possible, try to eat smaller meals throughout the day as opposed to a usual breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Sipping beverages can also help. Overly sweet or fatty foods, as well as fried foods, are more likely to cause nausea and vomiting than bland foods. The smell of food is just as important when it comes to preventing nausea, and you may find that eating foods cold makes them less aromatic.  By cooking and freezing meals in advance of your next chemotherapy treatment, you can avoid nausea related to cooking smells.  You may find other smells, such as soaps, detergents, or anything else, that also trigger your nausea. Do what you can to minimize your exposure to other triggering scents. Pressure from a belt or a tight shirt against your abdomen can worsen the sensation of nausea. Try wearing loose shirts and pants during the worst of your symptoms to avoid increasing them, especially directly after meals. A bad metallic taste in your mouth is another common side effect of chemotherapy. The taste can lead to nausea or a simple lack of desire to eat. Rinse your mouth with a mouthwash or chew sugar-free gum to help combat any bad taste from the chemotherapy. Another rinse you may want to try is adding one-half teaspoon each of salt and baking soda to a quart of water. Some herbal teas are known for their ability to combat nausea. One study showed that ginger tea helped reduce nausea (but not vomiting) caused by chemo. Peppermint tea is another herbal tea that has been used to treat nausea; however, it lacks research with regard to nausea caused by chemo. Any high-priced (or even low-priced) herbal remedy or “superfood” that claims to cure nausea caused by chemo should be viewed with some skepticism. Look into the proven results (published studies in reputable sources) of any option before spending money on it. You should also ask your doctor before taking any type of supplement to ensure that it won’t interact with any of your...

Large quantities of soda typically keep you highly caffeinated. Even though the levels of caffeine in coffee are higher, if you have a serious soda habit you’re probably drinking a lot of caffeine. Think carefully about how you’re going to deal with the effects of reduced caffeine. You’re going to feel more tired and less alert than usual, and this could last weeks as your body adjusts. Serious caffeine withdrawal will typically involve a headache. Because your body has been so used to the elevated levels of caffeine, it’s going to take it a while for it to readjust to functioning normally without the high levels of caffeine. Try using over-the-counter headache remedies containing acetaminophen, which do not contain caffeine. Drinking plain water is a healthier choice to keep you feeling full.  It can also help combat the caffeine headaches and become your drink of choice, rather than soda. Chances are, without caffeine you are going to feel much sleepier than usual. Go to bed earlier to get more sleep and nap when you can. These extended periods of sleep can help you get through the withdrawal and alleviate the headaches.

Large-headed varieties produce large crowns between fall and spring. These are the most commonly found variety. These varieties take 50 to 70 days to mature if planted in the spring, and 65 to 90 days to mature if planted in the fall. Large headed varieties include:  Arcadia Belstar Munchkin Nutri-Bud Pac-man Sprouting varieties are characterized by their bushy appearance and small crown size. They develop best between fall and spring. These varieties take 50 to 70 days to mature if planted in the spring, and 65 to 90 days to mature if planted in the fall. Sprouting varieties include:  Calabrese De Cicco Purple Peacock Purple Sprouting Romanesco varieties grow in swirled, cone-shaped crowns that look very ornamental in the garden and are crunchy when eaten. Romanesco varieties prefer temperatures in the 80-degree range and plenty of water. These varieties take 75 to 90 days to mature if planted in the spring, and 85 to 100 days to mature if planted in the fall. Romanesco varieties include:  Natalino Romanesco Italia Veronica These varieties are harvested as buds, making them richer in flavor that other varieties. They take only 40 to 55 days to mature if planted in the spring, and 50 to 75 days to mature if planted in the fall. Broccoli raab varieties include:  Early Fall Rapini Sessantina Grossa Sorrento Zamboni

Larger 4'x12' sheets are available, but are harder to work with and are usually used by professionals with a few extra hands. These larger sheets tend to break easily during transport to the job site, although they typically require less work because the larger sheets mean fewer joints to tape. Drywall is normally installed horizontally but can be installed vertically if desired. The 1/4" sheets are often used as overlays to existing drywall and are not intended to be used in new construction. Check your local building code for requirements in your area. When selecting drywall, use compositions that fit the environment they will be installed in. For instance, there are various moisture resistant products commonly called "green rock" designed for installation in high moisture areas such as garages and bathrooms. Check your local building supply store before committing to purchase. Green rocking the whole house may be overkill, but could be helpful in high moisture areas, such as bathrooms, as long as it's not used to line the bathtub or shower. Green rock drywall is not great in places where it is likely to get wet. Use glass-reinforced cement board around the shower or bath tiles instead.

Larger tongues can take much longer to cook, so choose the smallest tongue you can find, ideally below 3 pounds / 1.4 kg. Tongue has a short shelf life, so purchase it very fresh or frozen from a reliable butcher. (If frozen, thaw in the refrigerator for maximum safety.)  Some tongues include the glands, bones, and fat at the root of the tongue. This area is edible when cooked, but not everyone likes the soft, fatty texture. You may cut it off at home (before or after cooking), or look for a pre-trimmed "Swiss cut" tongue.  Brined tongue packs extra flavor and can be prepared the same way as fresh tongue. Place the tongue in a clean sink and scrub thoroughly under cold running water. Clean until the surface is free of dirt and blood. Many recipes recommend soaking the tongue in cold water for an hour or two, changing the water whenever it becomes murky. Store-bought tongue is usually clean enough to skip this step, but it can freshen up the tongue's flavor. Fill a large pot with chick or beef stock, or moderately salted water. Add vegetables and herbs of your choice. An onion or two, a couple bay leaves, peppercorns, and a carrot form a good simple base. Feel free to add other ingredients, such as oregano, rosemary, garlic, or chiles. Bring to a boil over high heat.  Use a pressure cooker or slow cooker to speed up the process. If you want to create a thicker sauce to serve with the tongue, add four cans of condensed French onion soup. Add the tongue to the broth and cover the pot. Bring to a boil again, then reduce to a simmer. Keep the tongue completely submerged. You may need to add more water or weigh it down with a steamer basket. The tongue is ready when it turns white and a knife easily pierces the thickest part. This typically takes about 50–60 minutes per pound (0.45 kg) of meat.  Fast cooking or undercooking makes the tongue tough and unpleasant. If you've got the time, err on the side of caution and keep simmering for an extra hour or two. If using a pressure cooker, heat until it starts to steam....

Larvae have soft bodies instead of a hard, outer shell. They have a distinct head from the rest of their body as well as six legs. Their antennae are straight.  Termite larvae tend to look extremely similar to worker and nymph termites, except for their size. Larvae are much smaller than workers and nymphs. Termites may resemble ants, but where ants’ bodies have a narrow waist, termites’ bodies are smooth and straight. Termites also have straight antennae where ants have bent antennae. Termite larvae tend to be white and almost translucent in their color. Keep in mind that older worker and nymph termites also have similar pale coloring, so color alone cannot determine if it is a larva or not.  If they have pale, white bodies but darker heads, they may be soldier termites. These are adult termites. If they have a darker color, such as brown or black, they may be booklice or ants instead. If they have wings, they may be reproductive termites. Most termite larvae are less than 1/10 of an inch (2.5 mm) long. In comparison, an adult worker termite is usually around ¼ inch (6.4 mm) long. Some reproductive termites, known as alates, can grow to be half an inch (13 mm) large, but if the insect is larger than this, they may not be a termite at all. Termite larvae are about the same size as the eggs they emerge from. These eggs are very small and white. They may be difficult to find, as they are kept deep within the colony. That said, if you find some termites near a pile of eggs, you can compare the size. If they’re roughly the same size, you’ve found larvae.

Laser hair removal uses a laser beam to target and destroy dark hair follicles, leaving your skin nearly hairless. Look online for popular laser hair removal services in your area and look for reviews of the clinics offering them. Call to ask about possible treatments for removing your ear hair, and get pricing information so you can comparison-shop between clinics.  Ask clinics what financing options they offer (e.g. monthly payments). Make sure that the laser hair removal is done by an experienced doctor with a relevant specialty, like dermatology or cosmetic surgery. Because laser hair removal works in sequence with your hair growth cycle, a specific schedule of treatments will have to be established for effective hair removal. Make time for 4-6 sessions, held about a month apart, which is the standard procedure for most patients. Note that given the small area that ear hair covers, ear hair removal sessions should last only a short time. To protect your skin and ensure the results of your laser treatments, avoid the sun for approximately 6 weeks before your first appointment. Getting a lot of sun can greatly increase the risk of skin lightening during treatment. Keep your ears protected by wearing a wide brimmed hat outdoors before and during your hair removal sessions, or by applying sunscreen with a high SPF to your ears.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите клинику, где можно сделать лазерную эпиляцию. Выберите время для проведения процедур. Защитите кожу.


Laser hair removal works best on light skin with dark hair. If your hair is too light, the laser won’t be able to find your hair follicles (which is how the laser works). If your skin is too dark, the laser might confuse your skin for hair follicles, which could hurt or even permanently burn you. New lasers, like the Nd:YAG, work better with darker skin types, but make sure you call your local laser hair removal location and confirm they have the Nd:YAG laser. The average price for a laser hair removal depends on whether you want a bikini or Brazilian laser hair removal. The average price of a bikini laser hair removal session in the US is $150, but it can be as high as $450. The average price of a Brazilian laser hair removal session in the US is $250, but it can be as high as $500. Laser hair removal requires that hair follicles be intact and inside your skin, and waxing removes hair follicles. Make your laser hair removal most successful by refraining from waxing for at least one month prior to your removal. In order to get the most out of your laser hair removal experience, you need to shave all of your vaginal hair the night before. Avoid using hair removal creams to remove hair before laser hair removal, as the chemicals can interact and cause irritation or pain. You might feel nervous or even mildly wary about being naked from the waist down in front of another person, but don’t worry! Your laser hair removal technician is a professional. If you need to distract yourself from the awkwardness, focus on the sound the laser is making. If your laser hair removal technician ever does or says anything inappropriate, end the session as soon as you can and report them to a manager or the police. Laser hair removal generally feels like slight, mildly uncomfortable prickling. If you feel any pain or intense heat, ask your technician to turn down the intensity. Don’t worry about “not getting your money’s worth” -- if you feel prickling, it’s working! Laser hair removal isn’t immediately visible. It takes about 2...

Не удивляйтесь, когда волосы просто выпадут. Будьте готовы к нескольким процедурам.


Laser printers fuse the ink (technically "toner") to the paper fibers before the paper is ejected, so the ink is already dry and bonded by the time you see it. Acetone, also sold as fingernail polish remover, can be applied with a cotton ball to dissolve some of the ink into a liquid again. This is not a perfect method, but may be the only one easily available. The paper will end up grey and smudged, but new printing or writing should be clearly visible on top of the smudge. Keep acetone away from heat sources, as it is flammable. If you feel dizzy from fume inhalation, move to fresh air. If you get acetone on your skin, eyes, or mouth, immediately rinse with lukewarm water for 15 minutes, without pausing to remove contact lenses. Rubbing the acetone over the ink greatly increases the amount of ink removed, although about 1/3 of the ink will probably remain as a grey smudge and faint image. Rub tissue paper only once across the affected area, since additional rubbing may tear the paper and does not noticeably increase the amount of ink removed. Ultrasonic devices use high-frequency sound waves to agitate contaminants and break them off of surfaces. This can be used to remove even more of the ink smudge, although the paper will still not appear as new. However, while these machines are sold for household use, they range from $150 at the cheapest, to several thousand dollars for higher-capacity, stronger versions. " These devices uses short pulses of laser light to burn off laser-printed inks, but as of September 2014, they only exist as theory or prototypes. This may change, however, so search online for news about "unprinters" or about the company "Reduse." These devices will not work on inkjet-printed paper. If none of the above methods work, try using whiteout instead. This will leave a visible raised, white surface on the paper, but once dry it will allow you to write or draw over it.

Laser therapy liquifies the fat, driving it into your lymph system, from where it can be eliminated.  Note that results can vary, but are generally minimal and only temporary. Laser treatments can help reduce the amount of fat below the skin and cause the skin the look firmer afterward, but treatments will need to be repeated every few months to maintain the appearance. Liposuction is occasionally attempted for the elimination of cellulite, but this expensive surgical procedure can actually make the problem worse instead of better. Liposuction tends to remove deep layers of fat. Fat linked to cellulite tends to lie directly below the skin, however. When these deep layers of fat are removed, your skin and the fat below it no longer have any "padding" to dampen the effect and appearance of cellulite. As such, the wrinkling can get worse. If you are still concerned about the cellulite on the back of your thighs, schedule an appointment with your doctor to talk about other healthy ways to get rid of it. Your doctor may discuss plastic surgery with you, but he or she will likely focus on natural lifestyle changes or drugs that can assist you in your fight against cellulite. Talking to a doctor is a good choice to make if you are lost and needing further guidance on how to establish a diet, exercise, and lifestyle routine capable of reducing the harsh appearance of cellulite on the back of your thighs.

TL;DR in Russian:

Laser treatment employs intense wavelengths of light to stimulate your skin's production of collagen, elastin, or melanin.  Your doctor may recommend different types of treatments depending upon the configuration and age of your stretch marks and upon your skin tone. Pulsed dye laser treatments are painless procedures used on fresh, or "active," stretch marks.  The laser's energy causes underlying blood vessels to collapse, causing the color of red or purple stretch marks to either disappear completely or turn white. Your practitioner would use a hand-held device to blow small crystals onto your skin.  These crystals abrade, or "polish," your skin's surface.  A vacuum then removes both crystals and the resulting dead skin cells.  Removing this top layer of your skin prompts the growth of new, more flexible skin. Note that this is one of the few treatments indicated as useful for minimizing old stretch marks. An abdominoplasty, or tummy tuck, may remove folds of skin marred by stretch marks.  Bear in mind, however, that cosmetic surgery can be both expensive and risky.  Consider carefully whether your concern about your stretch marks makes such an invasive approach worthwhile.  worthwhile.[22] Most doctors recommend a tummy tuck over microdermabrasion and laser treatments because the results of a tummy tuck are more cosmetically appealing.

Laser treatment uses a concentrated beam of energy to heat the capillaries under the skin, targeting each one individually to successfully remove them. Intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy is similar, but targets a broader area. Your dermatologist will work with you to decide which treatment (or combination of both) will be most effective in your situation.  When you meet with the dermatologist, ask a lot of questions. Make sure the person has conducted the procedure before with satisfactory results.  It's best to choose the dermatologist you go with on someone else's recommendation. Make sure you trust the person to use the procedure that's right for you. You should not receive these treatments while you have a tan or if your skin is irritated; lasers and IPL target the pigment in capillaries and brown spots, and if your skin is dark in color, they won't be able to "see" the places they're supposed to target. In addition to making sure your skin is as pigment-free as possible, follow any other instructions from your dermatologist leading up to the day of the appointment. Generally speaking, in the days leading up to treatment you should also avoid chemical peels, harsh or abrasive exfoliants, and products with retin-A. Both laser and IPL treatments can lead to minor redness and swelling of the skin for several days after treatment. You'll want to schedule your appointment several weeks in advance of important social events so your face has time to return to its normal state. In rare cases, laser and IPL treatments can lead to skin damage and hyperpigmentation. This is more common in people with darker skin than those with fair skin. Be sure to discuss all the possible side effects with your dermatologist before proceeding with the treatments. Your skin needs time to heal after treatment, so you should stay out of the sun for several days. Closely follow the after-care instructions given to you by your dermatologist to ensure your skin heals properly. Be sure to have sunscreen ready at home. Sunscreen should be...

Lasers work, or “lase,” by stimulating electrons to emit light of a particular wavelength. (This process was first proposed in 1917 by Albert Einstein.) For electrons to emit light, they must first absorb energy to boost them to a higher orbit, then discharge that energy as light when returning to their original orbit. These energy sources are known as “pumps.”  Small lasers, such as those in CD and DVD players and laser pointers, use electronic circuits to provide electric current to diodes, which serves as the pump. Carbon dioxide lasers are pumped with electrical discharges to excite their electrons. Excimer lasers get their energy from chemical reactions.  Lasers built around crystals or glasses use strong light sources such as arc or flash lamps. A gain medium, or active laser medium, amplifies the power of the light given off by the stimulated electrons. Gain media can be any of the following items:  Semiconductors made of materials such as gallium arsenide, aluminum gallium arsenide, or indium gallium arsenide. Crystals such as the ruby cylinder used in the Hughes Laboratories laser. Sapphire and garnet have also been used, as have fibers of optical glass. These glasses and crystals are treated with ions of rare earth elements Ceramics, which have also been treated with rare earth ions. Liquids, usually dyes, although an infrared laser was produced by using a gin and tonic as the gain medium. Gelatin dessert (Jell-O) has also been used successfully as a gain medium.  Gases, such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, mercury vapor, or a helium-neon mixture.  Chemical reactions. Electron beams. Nuclear materials. A uranium laser was first produced in November, 1960, six months after the first ruby laser. These mirrors, or resonators, keep the light within the laser chamber until it builds up to the desired energy level for release, either through a tiny aperture in one of the mirrors or through a lens.  The simplest resonator setup, the linear resonator, uses two mirrors placed at opposite sides of the laser...

Late bloomers  are often deep, reflective thinkers. They often have the tendency to try to control more aspects of life than their peers. You are likely a clever person; find a way to use your reflective nature to your advantage.  Your tendency toward reflection and control may mean that others achieve their goals faster than you. But, because you take the time for careful thought, when you get an opportunity you may be more able and ready to take the helm. Practice creative writing. If you find yourself at home more than you’d like, or are just looking a way to spend some time, try practicing creative writing. This could be in the form of poetry or prose. Either way, creative writing can be a great way to tap into your creative side. This can help you blossom into something unexpected. Try making art or music. If creative writing isn't for you, maybe visual art or music are. These activities can also help you get in touch with your creativity. Keeping track of your thoughts and ideas can help you get in touch with your desires and potential. Further, your process of getting to where you are may help someone else, especially other family members.  Traits like yours can be inherited. If your children or another family member can learn from your experiences, you will have made life better for someone else. Keep a daily journal. Journaling can be a great way to explore your emotions and allow them to flow more freely into your everyday life. Don't try to force your writing into a particular structure. Instead, write down anything that comes into your mind. Sit down and start free associating--you might be amazed at what comes out through your fingertips. This can also be a good way to encourage introspection and deep thinking. Keep an "ideas book" handy.  Keep a notebook in which you write down your ideas, perhaps next to your bed or in your bag. This can help you in moments of indecisiveness or faltering confidence. Whenever ideas strike you, write them down. Late bloomers are often full of ideas, sometimes so...

Lateral thinking is the ability to solve problems by making connections between seemingly disparate things, and is essentially what fuels creativity. Not everyone is comfortable thinking laterally, but it is a skill that can be strengthened with practice.  Grab a pen and paper, and think of five random, unrelated nouns. Spend 30 seconds or so generating a list of things you can do with each object. Be creative; don’t just list their most obvious uses. Now pick two of the items on your list, and use the list of uses for them you brainstormed as a jumping-off point to write an original joke. An example of a joke written this way by comedian Max Matterson is, “In what way are pencils and judges the same? They pass sentences, always have the last word, and are wright all the time.” Don’t worry if you struggle at first; with practice it will become easier. With a friend, brainstorm a list of random objects. Write each one down on a piece of paper, fold them up, and put them in a bowl. Draw a piece of paper at random, and set a timer for 1 minute. Come up with as many uses for that object as you can before the timer goes off. Read them aloud, crossing out the uses that the other person also listed. Whoever has the longest list at the end of this process wins.   Think of a random word, and have a friend do the same. On the count of three, both of you say the word you are thinking of, at the same time. Count to three again, and this time both of you try to say a word that is somehow between the two words you said in the first round. Continue doing this, with the goal of eventually both saying the same word. This will strengthen your ability to draw connections between things that are not obviously related. These are designed to improve your ability to connect seemingly unconnected ideas, and will help you learn to be creative on the spot. Generally lateral thinking puzzles take place as a dialogue of yes-or-no questions between a quizzer and a solver, but you can try to puzzle these classics out on your own, and then...

Latex begins to deteriorate as soon as you use it, and the more often you play, the quicker your goalie gloves will wear down. But by caring for your gloves properly, you can decrease the speed at which you have to replace them. Soft and tacky latex palm grips, like that in professional grade gloves, gives exceptional grip at the expense of durability. Very tacky game gloves can show signs of wear, including flaking, during the first use. Ensure that your game gloves stay in optimal shape by using training gloves. You can either use an old pair or game gloves or buy an inexpensive pair, which has the benefit of forcing you to work on your technique.  Buy a relatively inexpensive training glove that has less palm grip but more durability. Not only will this save your game gloves, but it will refine your technical skills.  You can convert old match gloves to training gloves once you have a new pair. It’s important to maintain one quality pair for matches and another for training. Your gloves will get the most use during a match, so caring for them during the match is important. This is particularly important with “all weather” or “wet weather” models.  Many areas of a soccer field can be dirty or muddy depending on the weather. If you warm up in these areas, it can reduce the efficacy of your gloves, so consider warming up someplace where there is less dirt. You can also use your training gloves for the warm up period. Softer latex gloves need moistened with water as the palm dries, but very soft latex palms can become slippery if they’re too moist. Figure out the correct balance before a match so you don’t hamper your efforts to defend shots on goal. Using your gloves will make them dirty no matter how carefully you play. Dirt and sweat breakdown the glove’s latex and will eventually affect your game. By cleaning your gloves after every use or every few uses, you will extend their life.

Вратарские перчатки изнашиваются. Используйте отдельные перчатки для тренировок. Уход за перчатками во время матча. Чистите перчатки. Не забывайте правильно хранить перчатки. Не давайте перчаткам задохнуться.


Latex paint is the most common paint used in modern interiors, and is a popular choice for low-cost craft paint. It is also known as acrylic or acrylic latex paint.  Check the can or tube of paint for the words "latex" or "acrylic latex." If you see this label, follow the steps below to remove your stain. If the paint can is unavailable, think back through your past painting projects. Did you clean your brushes with water or paint thinner? If you used water, you were most likely working with latex paint, and can use the steps below. After you have rinsed the last of your chosen cleansing agent from your clothing, launder it according to the item’s care instructions. The wash cycle should remove any remaining paint, but be sure to check that the stain is fully removed before you dry your clothing. Drying a remaining stain will only make it more difficult to remove.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обнаружьте пятна от латексной краски. Постирайте одежду как обычно.


Lather up with shampoo to remove dirt, dust, and excess oils, then finish with a conditioner to lock in moisture and add body. You can repeat this routine once or twice a week, depending on the length and fullness of your beard.  There’s no need to shop around for beard-specific products. The same cleansers you use on your head hair will work just fine. Washing your beard too often can strip it of its beneficial natural oils, leaving it looking dry and unhealthy. This is especially true if you’re using harsh soap products. After washing and drying your beard, shake a few drops of oil into your palm and smooth it through the hairs from root to tip. Use your fingers to work the oil close to your skin. The result will be a softer, healthier beard that holds its shape longer.  The best time to apply beard oil is just after a hot shower when your pores are open. Not only does beard oil soften coarse facial hair, it’s also useful for fighting off itchiness, which is usually the result of dry skin. Combing is essential for easing out tangles and preventing a scraggly, unkempt appearance. Brush the hairs in the direction you want them to fall. This will give them a sleeker, more streamlined look. For best results, invest in a special beard comb. The teeth on a beard comb are strong, stiff and perfectly spaced to separate hairs while adding volume. Trim along your upper cheeks to keep the contouring tidy and distinct. To determine where you beard should end, place two fingers above your Adam's apple and shave everything below this imaginary line in a gentle curve from ear to ear. This will help you avoid the dreaded neckbeard. A neckline that’s too high can create the unfortunate illusion of a double chin, while one that’s too low may come off looking sloppy or out of control.

TL;DR in Russian:

Мойте бороду раз в несколько дней. Пользуйтесь качественным маслом для бороды. Расчесывайте бороду. Следите, чтобы борода сохраняла четкие очертания.


Latik is made from coconut curds, which separate from the fat. You can use coconut milk, but the recipe is faster and makes more latik if you use the thicker, fattier coconut cream skimmed from the top of the can. You can also make coconut milk from fresh or shredded coconut. To make coconut cream, follow the same recipe, but use 4 parts coconut meat to one part water. Pour the coconut cream (or coconut milk) into a non-stick pan. Heat over medium heat until the mixture starts to simmer, then reduce to medium-low heat. Let it simmer, stirring occasionally, until it thickens. This takes about an hour. Once most of the liquid has evaporated, the coconut cream will separate into two parts: oil and curds. Keep heating it as this happens, stirring frequently to prevent burning. Leave the curds and oil in the pan and reduce the heat to low. Stop stirring until the oil begins to fry the curds, turning them golden-brown. Once they start to change color, stir occasionally so they cook evenly. The latik will continue to cook for a few minutes, turning a deep brown color. Pour the mixture through a mesh to separate the solid latik from the coconut oil. You can use the oil instead of butter in the ube halaya, or brush it on top once the halaya is finished. Sprinkle the latik on top of the ube halaya before serving  Store latik in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month.  Store coconut oil in an airtight container away from light and heat. It should last for at least a few months either in or out of the refrigerator, but homemade coconut oil may have traces of curds that cause it to spoil faster.

TL;DR in Russian:

Начните с кокосового крема или молока. Варите кокосовый крем на медленном огне до загустения. Продолжайте подогревать, пока творог и масло не разделятся. Позвольте творогу поджариться на медленном огне. Снимите с огня. Слейте кокосовое масло. Украсьте убе халая сверху.


Latios can be an incredibly difficult Pokémon to catch, as it tries to escape on every turn, forcing you to hunt it down again. Make sure you're prepared before starting your hunt, and it'll make catching Latios much easier. If you haven't used your Master Ball, this is one of the best uses for it in the game. The Master Ball will instantly catch Latios when you use it, making it the most efficient way to catch it. If you have a Master Ball, you don't really need to worry about any other preparations, and can skip down to the next section. If you don't have your Master Ball anymore, read on. Latios is an incredibly fast Pokémon, and if you want to have a chance to capture it without a Master Ball, you'll need a Pokémon with a high enough speed that it can act first. Not only that, you'll need a Pokémon that can learn the skill "Mean Look". Gengar and Crobat are two of the best candidates that meet both requirements.  Train your Gengar or Crobat up to at least Level 50. This will ensure that they have enough speed to beat Latios. When leveling up your Gengar or Crobat, make sure that you don't forget the Mean Look skill. Gengar learns it at Level 13, while Crobat learns it at Level 42. If you want to use the Super Repel trick to make finding Latios easier (see below), use Gengar and keep it at Level 39. Another strategy for catching Latios is to use Wobbuffet, who has the Shadow Tag ability. This prevents the enemy Pokémon from escaping.  Train Wobbuffet to Level 39 to use the Super Repel trick (see below). Make sure that Wobbuffet is the first Pokémon in your party so that it can trap Latios. Once Latios is trapped, you'll need to lower its HP so that you can capture it. The best way to do this without risking knocking out Latios is by using a Pokémon with the False Swipe ability. This will lower the enemy Pokémon's health but will never take it below 1 HP. This will ensure that you don't knock Latios out. It will also help to have a Pokémon with the Paralyze ability to help keep Latios trapped. You're likely...

TL;DR in Russian:

Перед началом охоты сделайте соответствующие приготовления. Используйте Master Ball. Прокачка Генгара или Кробата (вариант 1). Словите Воббуффета (вариант 2).

Latitude and longitude are represented by numbers, known as degrees, which measure your distance from two "zero lines." Longitude measures your distance East or West of the prime meridian, and latitude measure your distance North or South of the equator. This is the most accurate system of measurement for your GPS.  An example (guess where it is!), is 37°26'46.9"N, 122°09'57.0"W. Sometimes direction is noted by positive or negative numbers. North and East are considered positive. The previous example could be written as: 37°26'46.9", -122°09'57.0" If there is no notation, know that the latitude always comes first. Waypoints are saved in the GPS to be viewed later, allowing you to take notes, draw maps, and keep information on the landscape easily. On your GPS, click "Save Location," "Add to Favorites," or "Mark Waypoint."  Complex scientific GPS systems often let you mark specific waypoints -- artifacts, streams, rock formations, etc. The more points your save into your GPS, the more accurate your map of the area when you get home. Plug in the longitude/latitude coordinates of water sources, campgrounds, or ranger stations under "Get Directions" or "Find Location," then save them by clicking "Add to Favorites." You can now access it anytime.   "Add to Favorites" might be labeled by a star or flag as well. Click "Saved Locations" or "Favorite Locations" to see you waypoints anytime. You can click on them to get directions from anywhere in the world. Most complex GPS systems come with software that lets you save your data onto your computer. The program will import your way points and use them to make a map of the area you were in, complete with elevation data and any notes you made on your GPS. If you are mapping a specific area, make as many waypoints as you can for an accurate map. The more data the program has, the better the final product.

TL;DR in Russian:

Научитесь определять координаты широты и долготы. Отметьте место, где вы сейчас находитесь, как точку маршрута. Вводите точки маршрута заранее, если не знаете адреса. Подключите GPS к компьютеру, чтобы загрузить данные.


Latitude is a measure of distance north or south of the equator, which is an imaginary horizontal line around the exact mid-point of the earth between the 2 poles. The earth is divided up into 180 latitude lines on either side of the equator, called parallels. These parallels run horizontally around the earth, parallel to the equator. 90 of them are north of the equator, while the other 90 are south of it. Longitude is a measure of distance east or west of an imaginary vertical line that runs down the center of the globe from the North Pole to the South Pole, called the prime meridian. Longitude lines are a series of vertical lines from North Pole to the South Pole, also called meridians because every place touched by the same meridian have midday at the same time. There are 360 meridians on either side of the prime meridian, with 180 of them located east of the prime meridian, and the other 180 located to the west of it. The meridian on the opposite side of the earth from the prime meridian is called the anti-meridian. The measurements of latitude and longitude are usually expressed in degrees (°), minutes (′), or seconds (″). The entire distance from one parallel to another or one meridian to another is 1°. To produce even more accurate measurements, each degree can be further divided up into 60 minutes, and each minute into 60 seconds (for a total of 3,600 seconds per degree). Latitude and longitude are measured in degrees rather than absolute units of measurement (such as miles or kilometers) because the Earth is spherical. While the distance between degrees of latitude is constant (60 nautical miles or 111.12 km), the Earth’s shape causes the distance between degrees of longitude to decrease as you approach the poles. When measuring latitude in either direction, the equator is considered the starting point, at 0° latitude. Likewise, the prime meridian is the starting point for measures of longitude, representing 0° longitude. Every measure of latitude or longitude is expressed in terms of how far it is...

TL;DR in Russian:

Ознакомьтесь с понятием широты. Узнайте определение долготы. Изучите единицы измерения широты и долготы. Измерьте широту и долготу относительно нулевой точки.


Laughing increases your heart rate and activates your muscular system. Therefore, laughing is great for feeling energized. Take a break from work and go watch that silly YouTube clip. If the boss catches you, you were just busy motivating yourself. Thinking positive thoughts will help, too. Have you ever noticed that sad, pessimistic thinking just sort of shuts you down and makes you want to clam up? Concentrating on a can-do attitude can help make everything seem a little more doable. Research shows that hitting the snooze button actually makes you more tired. Think of it this way: you're waking up, falling back into a kind of half-sleep, waking up, falling back into a kind of half-sleep, and repeating and repeating until you finally get out of bed. This just makes you more drowsy – you'd be better off spending that half an hour getting actual rest. If you're just too tired to get up, you need to go to bed earlier. Aim for just 15 or 20 minutes earlier and you may be surprised at the difference it makes. Thought yawning was just when you were tired or when your body needed oxygen? Think again. It also wakes up your brain, cooling it down and sending it a burst of energy. So yawn away, because it's actually good for you. Our bodies are still programmed like our ancestors. We have urges that call for fight or flight and we still attribute color with meaning. Just like animals get alarmed at the color red, so do we. If you want to wake up your primitive mind, look at something red. If being sleepy is constantly a problem, you may want to consider putting specks of red all around you, whether it's at work, home, or school. Abandon seasonal colors (winter is so blah) and go for brighter shades, red included. This means your wardrobe, too. Sometimes being tired has less to do with how much sleep you got and more to do with what you've been doing all day. The brain can only handle so much stimuli and sometimes being tired is its way of telling you that it needs a break. Or just take a moment to do whatever the heck...

TL;DR in Russian:

Посмейтесь. Не нажимайте кнопку повтора на будильнике. Зевните. Посмотрите на что-нибудь красное. Уделите себе минутку.


Laughter is a key to a sense of humor. Focus on laughing more every day, even laughing at yourself. Enjoy small things, find humor in everyday situations, and find humor in life's misfortunes. Smile as often as you can. Try making other people laugh, too. Make laughing a priority, for yourself and for others. When you find yourself in a tense situation, step back and laugh. Anger is a powerful emotion, but laughter also has a powerful hold over our minds and bodies. Toss out a one-liner, laugh at the situation, or use humor to diffuse a situation.   It might save you some stress and heartache.   Sometimes tense or uncomfortable situations benefit from some comedic relief. A joke can take some of the tension away and make people feel more comfortable. When you know you are about to go off on someone, crack a joke. If you're fighting with your sibling, you can say, "We've been fighting about this same thing for 10 years! Apparently, we're stuck as teenagers." If someone makes fun of your old car, you can respond, "I bet you don't look as good as you did 15 years ago, either!" Let go of things that make you immediately feel defensive. Forget criticisms, judgments, and self-doubt. Instead, let those bothersome things roll off your back as you have a sense of humor about them. Everyone is not out to criticize you or to get you. Instead, smile or laugh. Having a light-hearted attitude about yourself is one way of keeping a sense of humor. Learn to laugh at yourself. Everyone needs to take themselves seriously sometimes, but learning to laugh at yourself is a way to self-acceptance. No one is perfect, and we all make mistakes. Don't take yourself too seriously, and keep good humor about your life.  Laugh off things you cannot control, such as age and appearance. If you have a big nose, make fun of yourself instead of getting upset. If you're getting older, laugh at the over the hill cards. Even if you feel uncomfortable making fun of yourself, shrug that stuff off, especially if you can't change it. Laugh at your...

TL;DR in Russian:

Учитесь смеяться. Заменяйте смехом другие реакции. Избегайте защитных реакций. Живите в мире с собой. Помогайте другим расслабиться. Действуйте спонтанно.


Laughter is most definitely contagious, and can help people feel more at ease and relaxed. Laughing and having a sense of humor can take the pressure off of your relationship and help you cope with the inevitable ups and downs of sharing a life together. Find things that you know your partner will like and find funny.  Remember things from your day that made you laugh to share with your partner when you get home. Find a TV show that makes both of you laugh and have a standing date to watch it together. Even if it’s not a long conversation, checking in with one another is vital. Remind the other person how you feel and that you are there when he or she needs you. Sending messages to show your level of engagement in the relationship can also help build intimacy. Don’t forget to say:  “I love you.” “I admire you.” “I miss you.” “I’m sorry things are going badly today. Is there any way I can help?” “I can’t wait to see you.” “I hate to see you like this. Can I do anything?” Move away from dating clichés like dinner and a movie. In a long-term relationship, it’s important to try new things to keep the magic alive. If you do go out to dinner, make an effort to try new restaurants and get dressed up from time to time. Try out the following ideas:  Go out dancing. Host a party. Hit the beach. Go ice skating. Visit hot springs. Do karaoke. Take a cooking class together. Little things can include writing notes to show your affection, taking the trash out, or cooking dinner when your partner is exhausted. These small gestures show that you are attentive to your partner. The ‘little things’ are often couple specific, meaning no two couples will enjoy the same things. The important thing is to be sincere in your gestures and come from the heart.   If you and your partner appreciate movies, plan a special movie night for the two of you, with your favorite snack foods. Surprise your partner with a small gift, such as flowers or a hobby-related item.

TL;DR in Russian:

Смейтесь вместе с партнером. Пусть партнер знает, что вы рядом. Устраивайте свидания, используя новые идеи. Делайте «приятные мелочи».


Laughter itself is unconscious. While it's possible for us to keep ourselves from laughing (not always successfully), it is very hard for us to produce laughter on demand, and doing so will usually seem "forced". Fortunately, laughter is very contagious (we're about 30 times more likely to laugh in the presence of others), and in a social context, it's easy to start laughing when others are laughing. Studies have shown that three things make us laugh the most: a sense of superiority over someone else behaving "dumber" than us; a difference between our expectation of something and the actual result; or welcome relief from an anxiety. It's good to know that the less funny a place is, the easier it becomes to add the element of humorous surprise. It might be easier to get people to laugh about in an office workplace than to get people to laugh in a comedy club. This is why The Office, the originally a BBC 2 show that was remade by NBC, uses an office as its setting: it's about as boring as it gets. They even process paper. How boring is that?! We're not used to looking at an office as a funny place, so when it is funny, it's especially funny. A lot of the time, comedy comes from linguistic confusion (unintentional) or linguistic playfulness (intentional). We sometimes find things humorous when there's a gap between our words and our meanings.  Freudian slips are linguistic errors that are believed to expose what you were really thinking rather than what you "meant" to say, and are often of a sexual nature. Witty wordplay is more intentional: "A chicken crossing the road: poultry in motion." Or this one, where the words "hockey" and "fight" are switched: "I went to a fight the other night and a hockey game broke out." There's perhaps nothing in comedy more widely cited but more thoroughly misunderstood than irony. Irony occurs when there is a gap between our expectations of a statement, situation, or image and the actual experience of it.  Comedian Jackie Mason illustrates irony with a joke: "My grandfather...

Laundry soap is highly concentrated, and a little bit goes a long way. If you use too much, the residue can congeal on the fabric, making the fibers stiff and scratchy. Try using less detergent than you normally would. Too much detergent residue can also foster mold and bacterial growth – especially if a towel stays damp for a while. If the chamber is too full, it might be keeping your towels from getting a full rinse. This can leave the fabric stiff with residue from minerals, dirt, and detergent. The same goes for drying! Be patient and run multiple loads to avoid overcrowding. If your home's water supply is "hard" and full of minerals, then the faucet or washing machine might be leaving chalky deposits in your towels. Consider buying a mineral filter to soften up your water supply, or washing your towels only with off-grid water.

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте меньше средства для стирки. Не перегружайте стиральную машину. Остерегайтесь жесткой воды.


Lavender appreciates slightly closed quarters, so dig a hole just large enough to contain the roots, and no larger. If you're planting lavender in a pot, you want to use a pot that's not much larger than the lavender's root ball. If you're planting more than one plant, leave one to two feet between each hole, since the plants will grow quite large. Sprinkle about half a cup of composted manure or bone meal into the hole to fertilize the lavender. This will help it get off to a good start. Mix it in with the soil at the bottom of the hole, then cover with a light layer of soil. If drainage is a concern, you can also mix in a handful of pebbles so the water drains through more easily. Prune off any dead or decaying parts of the plant so that it gets good air circulation and the plant's energy will be directed toward new healthy growth. Shake excess soil from the roots and remove any that are torn or damaged. Place the lavender in the hole so that the roots are nestled against the bottom and sides. They should not be directly touching the composted material; rather, make sure there's a layer of soil over the compost before you place the lavender in the hole. Fill in the hole with soil and pat it around the roots.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выкопайте лунку достаточной глубины для корней. Положите удобрения в лунку. Подготовьте растение. Поместите растение в лунку.


Lavender plants, unlike many perennials, do not handle division well. Read the section on deciding how to propagate lavender for more advice, or refer to either section on cuttings instead if your main goal is to produce new lavender plants. Lavender plants are dormant during winter, although they may retain their greyish-green color. Wait until early spring to divide the plant, but do not wait until the plant begins the growing season in earnest. If the center of the plant is dead, you should be able to identify individual clusters of stems circling the dead area, attached to the same section of roots. Plan to divide the plant so each new section has at least three to five growing stems and roughly equal shares of the root base. This may require you to include multiple clusters in one division. As a rough guide, each hole should be about twice as wide as the root ball, and approximately 12 inches (30 cm) deep. Keep in mind that these root balls will be smaller after division. Organic material such as compost or pine bark can be mixed into your garden soil to use as backfill, or the material can be placed in a layer about 3 inches (7.5 cm) deep at the base of each hole. Optionally, add a small amount of fertilizer high in phosphorus and potassium to the base of the hole as well. If the plant is not excessively large, the center is not dead, or separate divisions are not easily visible while the plant it is in the ground, you may wish to remove the entire plant before dividing it. Otherwise, remove portions of the soil around the plant to increase visibility and access to the root ball. Pry down on the handle of the shovel as you move around the plant until the plant releases from the ground. Most lavender plants cannot easily be pried apart, but if your variety grows discrete clusters, you may attempt to pry them apart with two garden forks. More commonly, you will need to use a clean, sharp shovel to cut the lavender plant as you decided above, then use garden forks to pry apart the entwined roots. Plant...

TL;DR in Russian:

Прибегайте к данному методу в качестве последнего средства. Делите лаванду ранней весной. Выделите участки для деления. Выкопайте лунки для посадки разделенных растений. На дно лунки насыпьте обогащенную питательными веществами почву. Частично или целиком выкопайте куст лаванды из земли. Для деления куста используйте лопату. Посадите каждый из выделенных участков растения в собственную лунку и посадите на такую же глубину, на какой растение росло раньше.


Lavender seeds can take a while to germinate and should be started early indoors so that they have plenty of time to grow into mature plants during the warm growing season. " Place your seeds between 2 wet paper towels, then put them into a sealable plastic bag. Store the bag with the seeds in the refrigerator, leaving it there for at least 3 weeks. If you purchased your seeds, they've already gone through this process. Only stratify your seeds if you harvested them yourself from another plant. The seed starting mix should be a light potting mix that drains well. You can either use a plastic seedling tray or a wide, shallow container without divisions. Sprinkle the seeds on top of the soil. There's no need to bury the seeds, but you should sprinkle a light layer of soil over the seeds.  If using a plastic seedling tray, plant one seed per slot. If planting in a division-free container, space the seeds 1/2 to 1 inch (1.27 to 2.54 cm) apart. A light coating of potting mix protects the seeds, but the seeds also need access to sunlight in order to germinate. A heat tray often works best, but another work location may also work as long as the temperature remains around 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius). Keep the growing medium moist, but not damp, and water the seeds in the morning so that the soil can dry some before evening hits. Soil that is too damp and cool will invite fungus to grow, and fungus will destroy your seeds. Lavender seeds can take two weeks to one month to sprout. Monitor your seeds while you wait for them to sprout. Make sure the soil stays wet while you wait for them to sprout, and keep the seeds in a sunny area. After the seeds sprout, you should move the container to a location that receives plenty of direct sunlight. If no such location is available, place a fluorescent grow light about the sprouts and allow them to sit in the artificial light for eight hours a day.

TL;DR in Russian:

Посадите семена за 6-12 недель до теплой погоды. Положите семена посредством процесса, называемого "холодное расслаивание. Наполните емкость посадочной смесью для семян. Посейте семена. Присыпьте семена на 1/3 см. Держите семена в теплом месте. Слегка полейте семена. Ждите. Дайте проросшим семенам много света.


Lavender water is so easy to make that it only requires a few basic supplies. Most of these can be found at craft stores or health food stores. If you have trouble finding anything, check online and consider ordering it. Here's what you'll need:  Lavender essential oil Distilled water Witch hazel or vodka Glass jar with a lid Spray bottle Funnel When you're making lavender water, the most important thing to get right is the ratio of the ingredients. Using just the right amount of lavender will ensure that your water smells divine but not overpowering. Mix up the following ingredients in the glass jar:  3 ounces of distilled water (you can use tap water if you don't have distilled) 1 ounce of witch hazel or vodka (this acts as a preservative and helps the lavender oil distribute throughout the water) 10 drops of lavender essential oil Make sure the lid is tightly screwed on, and shake up the jar to mix the lavender oil with the water. The witch hazel or vodka will help the oil mix well with the water. Place the funnel over the opening in the spray bottle. Carefully pour the lavender water through the funnel and into the bottle. If you have extra lavender water that won't fit in the bottle save it in the jar until you run out of liquid in the bottle. Spray it on your linens, your clothing, your furniture or your pillow. Lavender water has a calming effect, and using it is an excellent way to freshen up your environment and relieve stress.  Using lavender water is also a good natural way to relieve headaches. Spray it on our skin before going outdoors as a natural insect repellent.

TL;DR in Russian:

Lavender water made from lavender flowers won't smell as concentrated as lavender water made from essential oil. Essential oil is the distilled, concentrated essence of lavender made from the flowers. When you use the flowers themselves, the resulting water is very light, but still quite aromatic. Here's what you'll need:  A bunch of lavender stems fresh or dried (for a total of 2 tablespoons of buds) 1/2 cup water Glass bowl Spray bottle Funnel Fine-mesh strainer Lavender flowers grow as little buds along straight stems. To make lavender water, you don't need the stems; the buds contain the floral scent. To remove them from the stems, hold a stem over the glass bowl. Gently pinch the stem at its base, and run your fingers from the base to the tip. The buds will fall off into the bowl.  You can also buy dried lavender buds that have already been removed from their stems. Look in gourmet food stores or herb shops. This is a great way to use lavender plants that may be growing in your yard. Pour it into a small saucepan and place it over high heat. Heat the water until it comes to a full boil. Don't leave it unattended for too long, or the water will begin to evaporate. Carefully pour it over the buds so that the buds can begin steeping in the hot water. The heat will draw out the oils from the flower, and the water will become scented with lavender. Leave the buds to steep for a few hours or overnight. The process is similar to making tea. Let the buds continue steeping until the water cools. Set the fine-mesh strainer over a bowl. Pour the water into the strainer to strain out the buds. Discard the buds; they won't have a scent now that their essence is gone. Place the funnel over the opening of the spray bottle. Pour the lavender water into the spray bottle. The water is now ready to use on your linens, as air freshener, or as a tool for aromatherapy.  If you want the water to have a longer shelf life, you can mix in one ounce of either witch hazel or vodka. Shake the bottle well to distribute it throughout....

TL;DR in Russian:

Соберите все необходимое. Оборвите почки лаванды с ее стеблей. Доведите воду до кипения. Пролейте кипящую воду через почки лаванды. Накройте миску и дайте почки пропитаться. Процедите почки из воды. Перелейте воду с помощью воронки в бутылку с распылителем.


Lawsuits can be expensive, even if you are confident that you will win. You will still have to pay for legal representation and spend a lot of time defending your company.  Watch your actions and words. Avoid doing business with people who have a reputation for unscrupulous behavior and do not engage in questionable business practices.     Be careful of conflicts of interest. Avoid situations that could be perceived as suspicious as well.     Insure your small business. Make sure you have enough liability insurance and consider additional coverage such as errors and omissions insurance or a directors and officers (D&O) policy if you operate under a board of directors.    An unexpected disaster such as a fire or a hurricane could destroy your business, leaving you without income or a plan to rebuild.  Talk to your insurance agent about what is appropriate for your small business. Each business has different needs.     Develop a crisis plan. If disaster strikes, you and your employees should know exactly what to do. Include plans for any inventory, technology and how you will communicate with your customers.    Keep checks and balances and other controls in place to avoid being robbed or losing your hard-earned profits.  Be careful who you hire. Conduct background checks and screen all employees and consultants, especially those with access to company finances.     Audit your business finances at least every quarter.     Require timely payments from clients and customers. Waiting for payments can cause cash flow problems. Insist on payment for services and goods within a reasonable amount of time, such as 30 days.    Small businesses are eligible for many tax breaks. Make sure you are taking advantage of all of them.

TL;DR in Russian:

Защитите свой малый бизнес от возможных судебных исков. Оцените свою способность противостоять катастрофам. Следите за наличными деньгами и доходами. Сотрудничайте с квалифицированным адвокатом и финансовым консультантом.


Lawyers are known for their arguing skills, and this isn’t just limited to the workplace. They enjoy having lively debates, so if they disagree with you on an issue, don’t take it personally. Stand firm and argue your side effectively.  Cite reliable sources, offer statistics, and be as objective as possible, rather than letting your emotions take over. Don’t be intimidated by their law degree. Be confident in your own knowledge and intelligence and be comfortable discussing a wide range of topics. Identify topics that are off-limits, such as politics, religion, or family issues. If you’re happy to debate anything and everything, then great! But be honest if you just want to avoid a subject altogether. Your date should respect your wishes if something makes you uncomfortable. Decide whether you will discuss work while on dates or leave it behind. Some couples do better if work is kept out of the relationship, whereas others thrive on discussing what they did during their professional day. Have this conversation as early as possible so that you’re both on the same page about it by the first or second date. For example, you could say, "Work stresses me out too much. Can we just leave any work-talk behind when we go out?" Lawyers have their own language, often called “legalese,” and they may toss some of these terms into conversation when they talk about work. If you don’t want to constantly ask what they mean, learn some common legal terms and even some of the fundamentals of Latin.  Visit the library and check out Merriam Webster's Dictionary of Law as well as a couple beginner’s Latin books.  Some examples of legalese are affidavit, de facto, habeas corpus, fiduciary, corpus juris, and ex parte. Lawyers like clear facts. Rather than playing any mind games, come out and say how you feel about them and where you see the relationship going. They might not articulate their feelings in a romantic way, but they’ll appreciate your honesty, and will probably be straightforward with you as well.  For example, after a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Участвуйте в дискуссиях с партнером. Установите границы для деликатных тем. Придумайте правило по поводу обсуждения работы на свиданиях. Выучите несколько юридических терминов. Определите статус отношений. Не молчите, если партнер заденет ваши чувства.


Lawyers often have to work late into the evening, sometimes with no notice. Instead of getting angry when they have to cancel a dinner date, let them know you understand the difficult position they’re in. Say something like “I know it’s not up to you. Let’s reschedule for this weekend!” You'll be less likely to resent your lawyer after a canceled date if you have a backup plan for how to spend your evening. Call up a friend and see if they're available for a last-minute cocktail or offer to come over with pizza. If no one's available, go shopping for something for yourself, like new shoes or a book you've been wanting to read. If they cancel dinner plans because they have to work late, pick up food from their favorite restaurant and bring it to their office. Check to make sure their boss won’t mind if you stay and eat too. This will give you extra time together while still allowing them to stay on top of things at work. Lawyers spend so much of their time at work during the week that they like to go out and have a good time on the weekend. Rather than just staying in and watching TV, plan to visit street festivals, go to museums, have picnics in the park, see movies, and try new restaurants. Understand that if they have a heavy workload, weekend dates may get canceled as well. Avoid putting non-refundable deposits down on any activities. Lawyers have to go to lots of work events and parties that require formal dress. To show you’re supportive of their career, try to attend as many of these as possible. And don’t bug them to leave early, since they’re likely trying to make a good impression with their boss. Build out your wardrobe to feature lots of formal wear so that you don’t have to wear the same dress or suit to every event. Consider a clothing rental service like Rent the Runway if you can’t afford to pay for new dresses.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выражайте поддержку, когда партнер отменяет свидания. Подготовьте запасной план на случай, если свидание отменится. Устройте партнеру сюрприз на работе. Планируйте увлекательное времяпрепровождение на выходных. Посещайте с партнером официальные приемы.


Lay 1 bunch of celery sideways on a cutting board. Use a sharp kitchen knife to carefully cut off the top leafy parts and the white base that connects the stalks at the bottom.  A bunch of celery typically contains about 8-9 individual celery stalks. Advocates of celery juice suggest drinking a glass of it in the morning on an empty stomach, although there is no research that shows this is any better than consuming it at any other time of the day. Hold a stalk of celery under a running tap and gently rub your fingers along it to remove dirt and any other substances. Repeat this for each stalk to clean them all. You can also put the stalks in a colander, if you have one that is big enough, and rinse them all at once.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отделите верхнюю часть (черешки с листьями) от основания розетки сельдерея. Тщательно промойте каждый стебель сельдерея.


Lay 2 - 3 slices of saba on a wrapper. Spoon a few teaspoons of langka over the slices. Start by folding the top and bottom of the wrapper toward the middle. Gently turn the wrapper 180 degrees so that an unfolded side is facing you. Roll the wrapper away from you, as you would an  egg roll or a jelly roll. Brush a big of egg white on the edge of the wrapper to seal it in place. Finish filling and rolling the rest of the wrappers. After the turon is wrapped, one traditional preparation method is to roll the turon in brown sugar. The sugar will caramelize as the turon fry. Alternatively, you may make a brown sugar syrup to serve with the turon after they're fried.    Place the oil in a deep cast iron skillet or dutch oven suitable for frying. Let the oil heat until water sizzles when sprinkled over it. Carefully place them in the oil one at a time. They should begin to sizzle and fry right away - if they don't, the oil isn't hot enough. Don't overcrowd the pan, or they won't cook evenly. Fry them in batches if you have too many to fit all at once. Halfway through the frying process, turn the rolls with a pair of tongs. They should be crispy and golden on the outside and creamy on the inside. Place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. If you didn't opt to give the rolls a caramelized sugar coating, top them with brown sugar syrup, which can be made as instructed below.

TL;DR in Russian:

Начините турон. Заверните турон. Нагрейте масло. Положите турон в масло. Переверните роллы один раз. Вытащите роллы, когда они станут золотисто-коричневого цвета.


Lay a clean towel down over a flat surface. Place your photographs on the towel. Make sure to wear your editing gloves, even at the beginning of the process, to avoid damage. Use a can of compressed air. Blow the air over the photo to remove any stuck on dirt or dust. You can also use a soft cleaning brush, which may work better for very delicate photos.  Blow or brush the photograph as long as is needed to remove any excess dirt or debris. It's important you get any dust and dirt off before wiping down the photos. You do not want to get debris plastered onto the photos when wiping them down. Take your cleaning pads. Gently wipe down the surface of the photographs to remove any residue left on the photos. Use extremely slow hand movements to avoid tearing the photographs. Move the wipes over the photograph, removing any set-in debris and dirt as you go. The precise instructions for using cleaning pads varies depending on the type of pad. You should always closely read the manufacturer's instructions before using a cleaning pad. Hold a hairdryer set on high heat about 10 inches away from your photo. Move the hair dryer back and forth slowly. This should dry the photo off. Keep moving the hair dryer back and forth until the photo is completely dry. It's very important to keep the hairdryer a solid distance from the photograph to avoid heat damage. Some photographs may have very set in stains that do not respond to routine cleaning. You do not want to use harsh cleaners or clean your photographs too aggressively on your own. Look online to find professional photography cleaning services in your area in the event you're dealing with very difficult stains. It's better to spend extra money on professional services than risk damaging irreplaceable old photographs.

TL;DR in Russian:

Положите фотографию на полотенце. Сдуйте грязь. Вытрите остальной мусор. Высушите фотографии. Для удаления сложных пятен обратитесь за помощью к профессионалу.


Lay a dropcloth or towels along the baseboard where you intend to start. Ideally, your sponges shouldn't be dripping wet when you use them, so feel free to skip that part if you're confident in your ability to catch the occasional drip that may run down the wall. However: Do keep some towels around just in case your bucket suffers a major spill. Play it extra safe and lay one out to set your bucket on while you work. Depending on how strong your solution is, you may find the smell of vinegar a little overwhelming. If so, open windows and/or set up some fans to improve air circulation. Vinegar fumes aren't dangerous, but they may tempt you to rush through the job. Avoid doing so, since a rushed job may lead to drips and other water marks that will remain visible after the walls have dried. Unplug power cords from outlets. If you intend on cleaning outlet covers and/or where they cover the wall, switch off the fuses for those outlets before doing so. Do the same for light switches, telephone cords, and any other fixtures with an electric current. If you're cleaning the entire wall as opposed to spot-cleaning, take down anything that's mounted to them. Ensure a thorough cleaning without any obstructions that might be hiding dirt. This can include any:  Photos, posters, or other artwork. Shelves, coat hooks, or other functional items. Electronics, like wall-mounted TVs or speakers.

TL;DR in Russian:

Накройте пол. Проветрите комнату, если в этом есть необходимость. Не ударьтесь током. Снимите элементы декора.


Lay a ruler across the opening of the bag. Write down the length. This will be how long you will be making the sticks for the frame. Purchase some thin balsa wood sticks from an arts and crafts store. They look like squares or rectangles when you look down at them from the top. Cut the sticks down to the right length. Put a drop of wood glue in the middle of one stick. Place the other stick on top of it, making a cross or X shape. Wait for the glue to dry.  Try to get the thinnest stick possible. It will be the lightest and easiest to fly. Do not buy dowels; those are not balsa wood and will be too heavy.

TL;DR in Russian:

Измерьте ширину входного отверстия пакета. Подумайте о том, чтобы использовать для каркаса вместо соломинок палочки пробкового дерева.


Lay a single paper out on a flat surface. Use your fingers or a spoon to evenly spread the herbs over the center of the paper. For a smaller cigarette, use about 0.025 ounces (0.7 grams) of herbs; for a larger cigarette, use about 0.04 ounces (1.1 grams). If you are using a cigarette roller instead of rolling by hand, pack your herbs into the filling tray. Either pick up the paper or keep it on the flat surface, holding or maneuvering it with your index fingers and thumbs. Gently fold it lengthwise at the one-third mark so all the herbs roll into an even line. Roll the shorter side of the paper up and over the herbs so that the paper envelops them. Pack the herbs into a tight roll and tuck the edge of the paper under the herbs. Roll up the rest of the paper, leaving a small lip at the end.  For the cigarette roller, insert the empty tube and fill it with the packed herbs to create your cigarette. If you are using a disposable filter that gets rolled into the cigarette, make room for it at one end and roll it up with the cigarette. Dampen the lip of the paper that  you left exposed to make it sticky. Seal the paper and let it dry out for a couple minutes. For reusable and disposable filters that aren't rolled into the cigarette, insert the cigarette into the filter. Otherwise, the filter should already be rolled into the cigarette.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выложите травяную смесь на папиросную бумагу. Скрутите сигарету. Заклейте сигарету. Добавьте фильтр.


Lay down a towel or a mesh screen and position the fur on top of it. Try to spread the fur out as much as possible without breaking it up into small pieces. If there’s wind, place a mesh screen or towel on top of the fur to hold it in place. If it’s cloudy or rainy outside, leave the fur inside to dry in a well-ventilated area. It may take up to 4 hours for the fur to dry inside.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разложите шерсть сушиться на солнце примерно на 1–2 часа.


Lay it down on a flat surface. If it’s small enough to be moved when the TARDIS is finished, lay it on a sheet of paper or other protective material. If it’s going to stay where you build it, make sure the ground is level and not subject to moisture. Lay down a tarp if necessary. Base = 1u square x .2u high. This will be the framework for everything that follows, so build this part carefully. With a pencil, mark the inside top of the base around all 4 corners at .05u. For example, if your base is 4 cm square, make a mark at .2 cm. (4 x .05 = .2) Draw a line between the center points of your marks with pencil as a guide for placing the other parts of the TARDIS build. Glue the posts to the base so that they sit inside the guidelines, as shown. Place the ceiling board on top of the corner posts, aligned so that the edges are flush.

TL;DR in Russian:

Начните с основы. Добавьте угловые стойки и крышу. Отметьте углы. Соедините точки. Прикрепите стойки. Прикрепите потолок. Дайте каркасу ТАРДИС высохнуть, а клею – затвердеть.


Lay it onto the burner of a gas stove for 5-10 seconds, or lightly warm it in a skillet. For a quick fix, try warming the tortilla in the microwave for 30 seconds, or folding it into quarters and lightly browning it in a toaster. If you lay your tortilla directly onto a gas burner, be very cautious to ensure that it doesn't catch fire. Do not leave the stove until there's nothing over the flame. Lay the tortilla out on a flat surface. Place a line of toppings from one edge of the tortilla about 2/3 of the way to the other edge. A smear of hot, refried beans, some warmed chopped meat, some cheese, warmed rice, avocado, salsa, grated cheese, a bit of sour cream. Don't stack your pile more than 1-2 inches wide and an inch high. If you fill your burrito too full, you might not be able to seal it. Fold the corners towards the center, then grab the bottom and roll it up. To seal the burrito, try poking the ends in so that they remain tucked. It may help to dip a finger in water and run it along the margin first. Repeat as needed to make more burritos. At this point, you can serve them right away or toast them in a pan. This will lightly brown the sides, seal the fold, and give the tortilla a crispy texture. First, spray a large skillet with cooking spray and turn it to a medium-high heat. Lay the wraps into the skillet, seam-side down. Cook until the burrito is golden brown and crisp on the bottom. Then, turn over and cook until golden brown on the other side. The process should take 2-3 minutes per side.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разогрейте тортилью, чтобы она стала мягкой. Заполните буррито. Заверните буррито. Поджарьте получившиеся буррито на сковороде, если хотите. Готово.


Lay on your side on a mat, with your knees bent slightly and 1 leg stacked evenly on top of the other.  Your hips should be at a 90 degree angle to the ground, not angled towards the front or the back.  Bend your lower leg a little more to give yourself balance and support, and straighten your top leg with your foot flexed.  Raise your top leg upward (while keeping your foot flexed) and slightly backwards, then lower it again. Lift and lower your upper leg in sets of 5 or 10, depending on how advanced you are in your workout, then switch and repeat the same exercises on your other side. This exercise is similar to the side-lying hip abduction, but your knees will be bent. Lie on your side as you did with the side-lying hip abduction. Instead of keeping your legs straight, bend them and stack 1 on top of the other. Then, slide your knees forward so you are lying in a loose fetal position. Your feet should be aligned with your hips and your knees should be out in front of your body.  When you are in position, slowly begin to lift up your top knee, as if it is the top of a clamshell. As you do this, keep your top foot on top of your lower foot as if they are connected.  Then, slowly lower the top leg back down until it is resting on the bottom leg. Do this exercise for about 1 minute. Repeat this exercise on the opposite side after you finish the first side. Do up to 3 sets on each side. Stand up straight, put your hands on your hips, and keep your abdomen tight.  Raise your right knee upwards and move your right foot sideways until your left leg is stretched nicely.  Place your right foot on the ground, bend you right knee a little more, and keep your left leg straight.  Your left foot should still be flat on the ground.  Then push yourself off the ground with your right foot and propel yourself back to a standing position.  Repeat the same action on your left side.  You can do all of 1 side, then move to the other side, or you can alter sides for each lunge. Perform 10 to 20 repetitions of this exercise on...

TL;DR in Russian:

Попробуйте делать махи ногой из положения лежа на боку. Выполняйте упражнение моллюск. Делайте боковые выпады. Попробуйте переносить вес с ноги на ногу. Испытайте выпады назад. Выполняйте традиционные приседания.


Lay one half cut-side up, and find where the spine ends, near the fleshy part of the thigh (that's the ham) on that side. Start with a sharp boning knife to expose the ham.   Trim back the belly by following the contour of the ham back toward the spine, cutting into the narrowest point. Turn your knife and cut straight down, until you hit the tip of the pelvic bone. At that point, switch your knife for the hacksaw (or your heavier cleaver) and cut through the bone to remove the ham. You should be able to see this point relatively easily, if your cut along the backbone was centered well. Hams are typically cured or smoked, so it's also a good idea to trim it up to make it uniform, especially if you've got an especially fatty ham. The wedge-shaped meat left near the spine after removing the ham is a premium cut, perfect for roasts. It's, in fact, where the phrase "high on the hog," comes from. To remove the shoulder, flip the side of pork over so the skin side is facing up. Pull the limb up, exposing the "underarm" of the shoulder, and work your knife into the connective tissue underneath. You'll only have to use your knife to continue working toward the joint, which should pull away easily by pulling it back on itself.  Pork shoulder or "butt" is the best pork for slow-cooking and making pulled pork. It's a fatty cut, and going low-and-slow on the smoker will make for an excellent fork-tender meal. Flip the side over again, cut-side up. From the smallest rib at the narrow end of the side, count up to the third or fourth rib and use the cleaver to cut through the backbone at that point, between the ribs. Remove everything below that line and reserve the meat for the grinder, or discard it. If you've got an electric butcher's saw, this is much easier.   To find the chops, turn the side and look at it head-on, looking down the spine from the side that had the shoulder. Find the "eye" of the loin, which should run alongside the backbone. It's a thin quarter-sized (maybe larger or smaller, depending) dark patch of...

TL;DR in Russian:

Lay out a clean towel and set your cat in the middle. Pull one side up and over your cat's back and around her side, tucking the free end under her feet. Pull the other side of the towel over the opposite direction in a similar fashion. At this point, your cat should be rolled up like a burrito. If you are alone, snuggle your cat close to your body with her head facing the opposite direction of your dominant hand. Talk to her this entire time in a calm voice. Try to do this during the entire procedure as it will help in calming the cat. Lift the cat's tail and gently insert the tip of the enema syringe or feeding tube attached to a 20cc syringe 2 to 3 inches (5.1 to 7.6 cm) into the rectum. Or you could insert until you feel the hard feces hitting the tip of the rubber tubing. Do not push really hard with the tube or fluid since you could cause rectal trauma or tears, leading to serious medical complications. If you're going to use mineral oil, apply 15-20 ml slowly into the rectum. If you're going to use warm water, slowly administer 50-75 ml. If you're going to use a Feline Pet-Ema ® Enema, first put in 6 ml at a rate of around 1 ml every 3 seconds. After 1 hour, administer another 6 ml of the enema and follow the same procedure as the first administration. Place your palm under the belly between your cat's legs and gently squeeze until you feel the hardened feces. Massage this area in a gentle pinching action using your thumb and the rest of the fingers. In some cats, the feces will come out quickly, after 5 to 10 minutes. In other cats with very hardened stools, it could take 1 to 2 hours before the softened stool passes. You can repeat the enema in 1-2 hours if no stool passes. If the second enema is ineffective, contact your veterinarian. You may notice a few small streaks or specks of bright red blood, and that's okay. But if you see large amounts of blood or continuous rectal bleeding, your cat may have an injury in her rectum. See a vet immediately. Be sure to keep an eye on your cat for a few hours....

TL;DR in Russian:

Заверните кошку в полотенце. Поставьте клизму. Ощупайте живот. После постановки клизмы, позаботьтесь о вашем питомце.


Lay out a sticky trap in any area you suspect wolf spiders to be lurking in, paying close attention to dark, hidden corners.  These traps consist of little more than heavy cardboard with extremely sticky glue pasted on them. Wolf spiders and other pests get stuck on the glue as they step onto the trap. They become unable to move and die of starvation. Place glue traps in the corners of basements and garages. The traps should also be placed beneath and behind furniture, as well as on both sides of any door that leads to the outside. Keep these traps out of reach of small children and pets. Kids and pets could get stuck in these traps, and removing these traps can be a difficult process. Plant-based pesticides made with hexa-hydroxyl are generally effective against wolf spiders.  These insecticides come as a dust or powder that can be sprinkled beneath furniture, in dark basement corners, and other dimly-lit areas. Hexa-hydroxyl is also pet-safe and people-safe. If you plan on killing the spiders one-by-one, the best way to do so it to track them down by shining a flashlight in the darkest corners of your home at night.  You can also track the spiders down outside by shining a flashlight into overgrowth, patches of woods, and dense shrubs. Wolf spiders have discs located in the back of their eyes. These discs are reflective, enabling them to see at night. It will also reflect the light from your flashlight, making these spiders easy to track in the dark. When spotted, place a plastic container or cup over the spider and slide a heavy, firm piece of board beneath the cup, moving carefully to prevent the spider from being able to crawl out.  Release the spider outside as soon as possible. Make sure that you release it far away from the perimeter of your home so that it does not crawl back inside as soon as it is free. Use a glove when trapping and picking up wolf spiders to reduce the risk of being bitten. While wolf spider venom is not usually toxic to humans, getting bitten can still sting considerably. It is...

Lay out and separate each of your strands flat on the table, with four of them to the right, four to the left, and a space in between them in the middle. You can also hold four strands in each hand if you choose to use that method for braiding.  Make sure you pay attention to where colors are placed if you’re going for a certain pattern. As you start making your braid, you should return to this placement of four strands to the left and four to the right to ensure that the strands stay neat and in order.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отведите половину нитей вправо, а другую половину — влево.


Lay the canvas out flat on your work surface and center the frame on top of it. Take a minute to smooth out and clean up the canvas as much as possible before you get started. Make sure that the grain of the canvas is lined up straight with the stretcher bars on the frame. If they don't, the bars will twist and two opposite corners will lift up. Start with the longest side of the canvas closest to you and fold it in. Insert three staples in the center of that side of the frame, along the bottom edge of the frame. In other words, you want to wrap the canvas all the way around the bar and start fixing it onto the bottom edge of the frame. The canvas around the corners should still be quite loose. You’ll tighten it up later.  Rotate the canvas and frame, or move around the table to the opposite side and do the same thing. Pull the canvas tight, fold it over the frame, and insert three more staples into the stretcher bar on the opposite side. You always want to secure the canvas from the middle to the corners. Never start inserting staples close to one of the corners, or the canvas will twist slightly on the frame, making it pooch out. If you're trying to stretch an ungessoed canvas, it's common to use a spray bottle to gently dampen the canvas with some water, which will help to tighten the canvas as it dries. After you've fixed the long sides to the canvas, mist the canvas gently to promote shrinkage as you work. Go to one of the unstapled sides and give the canvas a good solid pull, fold it over, and insert two staples, attaching the canvas to the frame. Do the same thing to the other short side. Go back to the first side you started stretching and work from your center staples out to each corner. Pull a piece of loose canvas, stretch it down, and insert a staple. Go slowly, stretching a little bit from the opposite side of the bar at a time. Continue pulling and stapling pieces of the canvas moving around the canvas edges in the same order as before. If you want, you can staple near the corners and then place...

Lay the eggplant cut-side up on a baking sheet. Drizzle the eggplant with olive oil or another type of vegetable oil. Use a pastry brush or the back of a spoon to smooth the oil over the eggplant until the flesh is lightly coated all over. Sprinkle the slices with salt and pepper. Place the eggplant in the oven and bake it until the inside is creamy and the edges and surface have turned brown and crispy, about 20 minutes.  If you'd like cheesy eggplant, remove it from the oven and sprinkle it with Parmesan, cheddar, or goat cheese. Place it back in the oven for another 5 minutes, until the cheese is melted. For another variation, try tomato garlic eggplant. Place tomato halves and garlic cloves around the eggplant slices and bake them together for 30 minutes.
