Choose a wide-enough open space in which you can assemble your tent. If you're in a state or national park, make sure that you're camping in a designated camping area. Make sure that you're not on private property and follow all the laws in the area that govern camping. Position the side of the tent with doors away from the prevailing wind, making the tent less likely to balloon and create extra tension on the stakes.  Try to use the natural tree line to create a windbreak if it's especially windy. Move closer to the trees so they'll block off the breeze a little bit. Avoid camping in dry river/creek beds in case flash flooding occurs and avoid camping under trees, which can be dangerous in storms and can drop branches without warning on your tent. It can be a good idea to anticipate the sun's path for the morning time, so you won't be rudely awakened. In the summertime, tents can act like ovens, meaning that you'll wake up sweaty and irritable if you set up your tent in the direct path of the sun. In the ideal tent placement, you'll remain in the shade through the morning so you can wake up comfortably at a time of your choosing. Keep the sleeping area well away from cooking and toilet areas, preferably upwind of them. If you have a fire at your campsite, make sure it's not close enough to spray sparks onto the tent, and make sure you put your fire out completely before you turn in for the night.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите подходящее место для палатки. Учитывайте направление ветра. Определите, где встает солнце. Организуйте ваш лагерь правильно.


Choose an appropriate time and place to talk with a woman. Grocery stores, museums, coffee shops and dog parks are great places to meet women who are enjoying themselves and usually feeling relaxed. When a woman is at a bar or club, she is already on her guard. She may not be looking for a long-term relationship, or she might be out with the girls for the night. The place is not ideal for connecting with someone more than casually. . People generally appreciate a good sense of humor. Be friendly and make light-hearted jokes to make the girl laugh. There are a lot of different situations that lend themselves to demonstrating your sense of humor. Try making jokes at the following things:  The circumstance around you. If you’re at a park or walking down the street and you notice something funny, say something about it. Make a joke about yourself. If you’re really tall, talk about how you can see the next city from your viewpoint. Tell a funny story about yourself. Did you get into a silly fight in middle school? Tell her about it, and be sure to include the details about the ridiculous clothes you wore at the time or what song you rocked out to right before you got into the fight. Talk about current events. Some things that happen in the news or with celebrities can be good material for making jokes. These jokes might work well as your personal inside jokes later on. Careful not to use crude or offensive humor. Until you know someone very well, this type of humor should be avoided at all costs. Show her that you’ve noticed something about her by complimenting her on it. For example, you might tell her:  ”I really like your hair long like that.” “You made some really smart points in the class debate today.” ”You’re really easy to talk to.” Once you find out the girl’s name, be sure to use it several times in the conversation. You might want to write it down later to help you remember it. You might be nervous about talking with a girl because she might reject you. Don’t let fears of rejection prevent you from...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подойдите к ней тогда и там, где она чувствует себя расслабленно. Ведите себя непринужденно и дружелюбно Сделайте ей комплимент. Зовите ее по имени. Не дайте потенциальному отказу остановить вас. Не будьте поверхностны. Постарайтесь пообщаться с ней больше одного раза. Не ведите себя странно или отчаянно.


Choose an area with a good bit of flat space that you can work with and a good counter. A bathroom is a good place. You'll also want an area that is easy to sterilize and clean up all the blood when you're done. First of all, make a solution of 1 part bleach and four parts water. Clean the bathroom thoroughly. Scrub any area that you think you might touch during the procedure. Clean every inch of the counter. The cleaner this place is, the safer you are. If you bought sterile clamps and jewelry, then great, but if not, it might be a good idea to boil these in a pot of water, then wipe them down with some of your bleach and water solutions. It's probably a good idea to sterilize these regardless since you don't know what they may have come into contact with since you got them. Once everything is clean, put on a pair of gloves and lay out all your supplies. Extra gloves, sterile needle, sterile clamps, sterile jewelry, alcohol wipes, a marker, and a small blob of A&D ointment. Remove your gloves and throw them away. Now, put on a pair of fresh, clean rubber gloves. Use an alcohol wipe to clean off the area where you want to pierce yourself. Use a marker to make two dots, one where you want the needle to go in, and one where you want the needle to come out. Make sure that these dots are a suitable distance apart for your jewelry. Take a step back and imagine it with jewelry in it. Make very sure that it is straight and just how you want it because it is a pain to have to take it out and redo it all over again. Realize that marking these dots does not guarantee that this is where the jewelry will go. If you move (due to, for example, serious pain), you might shift the needle and end up with a crooked piercing. A good reason to have someone else do this for you. Put on a fresh pair. Now take your clamps (if you have them) and stretch out the skin in the place you have marked. Line up the two dots on either side of the skin and gently let the clamps close on the skin. You should be able to see one dot on each side...

TL;DR in Russian:

Сначала решите, в каком месте вы будете делать пирсинг. Продезинфицируйте все. Не пренебрегайте украшениями для пирсинга. Подготовьте все материалы. Очистите кожу вокруг будущего прокола. Отметьте место для прокалывания. Если все выглядит хорошо, снимите перчатки и выбросьте их. Используйте зажим. Как вариант, натяните кожу.


Choose an area with good lighting. Cover your work surface with newspaper or a cheap, plastic, tablecloth. If you will be working with spray paint, it would be best if you work in a well-ventilated area; outside would be best. If there are any places on your plastic you do not wish to paint, cover them in painter's tape. Spray paint works especially well for plastic, but you can use acrylic or enamel/model paint as well. It would be even better if the paint is meant for plastic. Check the label, and look for words such as: "Plastic" or "Multi-Surface." At this point, your project is complete and ready to use. If you'd like to add some details or a top coat, read on to the next part. If you applied masking tape earlier, you should remove it now. Peel it away carefully so that you don't accidentally chip the paint.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте рабочее пространство. Выберите подходящую краску. Последний слой краски должен полностью высохнуть.


Choose an engaging title that tells the viewer what your timeline is about. Make sure that your title encompasses all that you’ve included in your project, rather than just the topic. For example, don’t title your project “NASA;” instead, choose a title like “NASA: The Quest for the Moon.” Example titles include:  The Life and Times of Nelson Mandela Beverly Hills, 90210: A Recent History JD Salinger's Storied Career California's Ancient Redwoods A Day in the Life of a Praying Mantis For each entry, write a short explanation about what happened, including facts such as who was involved, the impact of the event, and any numbers related to the event, such as the number of people killed in a war. Add the details that help you tell the overall narrative of your timeline. Your words need to be easy to read, so write clearly. Alternatively, type up your entries, cut them out, and glue them onto the timeline. Use as few words as possible to explain the events to avoid taking up too much space with one event. If you’re creating a digital timeline, type up your entries. You can add visual interest to your timeline with some pictures to go along with the events you're including. Find images online, copy them from books, or get creative and draw them yourself.

TL;DR in Russian:

Дайте название своему проекту. Добавьте детали и важную информацию о каждом событии. Пишите четко и кратко. Добавьте изображения.


Choose an over-the-counter cream containing a beneficial active ingredient, such as retinol, vitamin C, or alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs). Products that are more expensive or that contain more active ingredients may not be more effective than products that contain only 1 or 2 active ingredients, so don't let these factors sway you to choose 1 anti-wrinkle cream over another. Try your cream for 6-8 weeks before evaluating its effectiveness. Some other helpful active ingredients to look for include:  Coenzyme Q10 Peptides Tea extracts Grape seed extract Niacinamide Keeping your skin clean and avoiding irritation while cleansing your skin is another great way to minimize the appearance of wrinkles. Choose a facial cleanser that is labeled as gentle or for sensitive skin, and wash your face with it in the morning, at night, and any time your skin is sweaty or dirty. Choose a cleanser that does not contain any exfoliants. These are more likely to irritate your skin. A manual exfoliant contains granules that polish your skin, while a chemical exfoliant dissolves the dead skin cells. This will buff away dead skin cells to reveal younger, smoother skin. The best time to exfoliate is in the morning, as your skin repairs itself overnight.  If you choose to use a chemical exfoliant, you can do a mini chemical peel at home. You can obtain a kit at most beauty stores. If you choose to use an exfoliating brush, you can use it daily.  You could also make your own exfoliant using ingredients like salt, sugar, baking soda, coffee grounds, honey, or lemon juice. No product will produce dramatic results overnight. It will take at least a few weeks of regular use and possibly a couple of months before you notice a difference. You will likely need to apply the anti-wrinkle cream in the morning and at night after cleansing your skin. Follow the instructions on the package for use and see if your wrinkles improve after a month or 2.  Keep in mind that products that contain alpha-hydroxy acids or retinol may irritate the skin around...

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите крем от морщин с ретинолом или альфа-гидроксикислотами. Очищайте кожу ежедневно мягким средством. Наносите на кожу скраб или очищайте кожу химически два раза в неделю. Используйте крем против морщин дважды в день. Наносите на кожу солнцезащитное средство. Попробуйте использовать сыворотки против морщин. Принимайте антиоксиданты.


Choose anti-inflammatory medications such as acetaminophen. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and let your doctor know that you're taking OTC pain relievers so they don't interfere with your other medications. OTC pain relievers can help you manage the pain of early ulcers. To ease the pain and discomfort of a throat ulcer, make a saltwater solution of 1 teaspoon (6 g) of baking soda mixed with 1 teaspoon (5 g) of salt and 4 cups (950 ml) of warm water. Gargle with the mixture for at least 30 seconds and then spit it out. You can gargle with saltwater as often as you like. For example, if you have severe ulcers, gargle every 1 to 2 hours. This helps prevent further irritation and worsening of the throat ulcer. Instead of eating crunchy foods that could scratch your throat or spicy foods that can cause irritation, eat smooth foods that are easy to swallow. Try soups, milkshakes, smoothies, or soft eggs. If the ulcer makes you more sensitive to heat, eat warm or cold foods instead of hot foods. Hot beverages can irritate the ulcer, causing your pain to worsen. Hot beverages can also prolong the healing process, since they aggravate the ulcer. Instead, opt for warm beverages, which will help soothe the ulcer. For example, you could start your morning with warm tea rather than coffee. Unfortunately, caffeine, chocolate, mint, citrus, and hot spices can all aggravate your throat ulcer. Luckily, this is easy to avoid by cutting out these foods until your ulcer heals. Wait until your throat is completely healed before reintroducing them to your diet, as they could cause the ulcer to worsen. If the throat ulcer is causing bad breath or your ulcer was caused by a bacterial or fungal infection, spend a little more time brushing your teeth. Remember to brush your tongue to remove bacteria that linger between your taste buds. You can brush your teeth more than 2 times a day, if you're concerned about bad breath. To prevent inflammation and irritation in your throat, try to cut back or stop smoking or chewing...

TL;DR in Russian:

Принимайте безрецептурные обезболивающие. Полощите горло теплым солевым раствором. Измените свой рацион, чтобы он включал мягкую и неострую пищу. Не пейте горячие напитки. Держитесь подальше от кофеина и других продуктов, которые могут вызвать раздражение. Чистите зубы и язык не менее двух раз в день. Перестаньте курить и употреблять спиртное. Распознайте симптомы рака горла. Пройдите медицинский осмотр. Узнайте у врача о возможных причинах появления язв. Принимайте рецептурные препараты. Пользуйтесь обезболивающим ополаскивателем для рта.


Choose any design that you desire. You can make the entire rock resemble something, like an animal, or paint a (very) small scene on the rock. Some options for animals are a cat, dog, fish, or owl. For a scene, you could paint a house or tree branch with a bird sitting on it. If the rock is big enough, you can paint an inspirational word, like “believe,” or “hope.” You can also paint monsters on the rock, like Frankenstein’s monster, to put out during Halloween. Use acrylic paints from a tube, such as Liquitex, or a paint made for outdoor use such as Plaid paint. An acrylic patio paint, however, is ideal. It Is ideal because the paint is made to handle porous surfaces, like rocks, and weather the outside elements. A regular acrylic will work if you are planning to keep the rock inside, though.  The paint has a bird house shape on the top to indicate that the paint is outdoor safe. Make sure you have a palette to mix paint on. If you don't, you can use an old plate, wax paper, or foil folded around a piece of cardboard. The rocks will wear down the brushes as you paint them, especially if it is a hard rock. Get an inexpensive pack of brushes to use that has several sizes in it. This is so that you will have brushes to use for larger areas, then details can be painted with a smaller brush. If you want to use a specific type of brush, buy acrylic semi stiff brushes.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите дизайн. Приготовьте краски. Используйте недорогие кисти для рисования.


Choose any flavor of shisha, or tobacco packed in molasses and glycerin. Before removing any from the container, mix it together to bring the flavorful syrup back up from the bottom. Take a small pinch of the shisha and gently break it apart between your fingers, over a plate. If you see stems, cut them into small pieces or discard them. Repeat until you have enough to loosely fill the bowl. Leave it loose, not packed, so air can flow through it. Add tobacco until it forms an even layer about 1/12—1/8” (2–3 mm) below the rim of the bowl. If stacked too high, it will stick to the aluminum foil and scorch.  If there are a few pieces sticking up too high, gently knock them down with a damp paper towel. You may want to practice with tobacco-free hookah molasses until you've learned the process. This is less likely to burn. You can buy a reusable hookah bowl screen for this purpose, but a homemade foil cover may control heat more reliably. Wrap aluminum foil tightly over the bowl to form a taut surface. Using a paper clip or needle, punch holes in the foil to allow air flow. Try a circle of holes near the outer rim, then more holes spiraling inward.  More holes means more heat on the tobacco, and therefore more smoke. Try starting with about 15 holes. If inhaling is difficult or you’d like more smoke, you can add more holes. Some people prefer 50–100 holes.  Make the holes small to avoid letting in flakes of ash. Attach the ash-collecting tray to the top of the hookah shaft. Fit the bowl over the top hole, making an airtight connection.

TL;DR in Russian:

Размешайте табак. Разломайте его на части. Высыпьте табак в чашу. Накройте чашу. Завершите сборку кальяна.


Choose any size box that you desire. Boxes made with plain cardboard are easiest to convert into a manger, but you could also use a box that has a printed pattern. Use markers to draw wood grain on the outside of the cardboard box. Draw slightly curved lines across the box to resemble wood planks. Add details like wood swirls, knots and cracks to resemble wood. Consider drawing nails at each end of the box  as a finishing touch.  If you're using a box that has a design printed on it, cover it first with brown paper or cut up paper bags. Use double-sided tape or glue to secure the plain brown paper to the box and completely obscure the pattern underneath. When the glue is dry, use markers to create the wood grain pattern. Your manger doesn't have to be brown. You could cover the box with clay-colored paper, festive red and green Christmas colors, or any other colors you desire. If you're making the manger with kids, let them decide how to  decorate it in honor of Christmas. Arrange hay or straw along the inside and outside of the box. The hay will help disguise the box and create the appearance of a manger.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите крепкую картонную коробку. Нарисуйте структуру дерева на внешней стороне коробки. Добавьте сено или солому.


Choose at least four to five simple rules for the classroom and write them down. You will use these rules to manage the classroom and establish boundaries among your students.  Your rules may include: all students must come to class on time and ready to learn, all students must be prepared to listen and ask questions by raising their hand, and all students must be aware of the consequences of missing class or turning in assignments late. You may also have a rule about playing fair with others in the classroom and listening respectfully to others when they speak. Make sure you have at least one to two rules that directly address discipline and behavior towards others in the classroom. Start the school year on the right foot by printing out the rules and handing them out to all students. You can also post them on the blackboard or put them on the class' online message board so they are readily available throughout the school year. Explain to your students that you expect them to all follow these four to five rules and to enforce these rules among themselves. You should be clear about the negative consequences of disruptive behavior in class. If a student talks over another student when he/she is speaking, for example, this could be considered disruptive and the consequence could be a reprimand from you. As well, if one student refuses to share an item with another student, this could be considered a violation of the rules and could lead to points deducted from his/her participation grade. Explain possible situations that may be considered disruptive or against the rules of the classroom.  You should also discuss the positive consequences of following the classroom rules, such as verbal praise, or entering a class raffle for a prize. You may also use the star system, where a student who follows the rules receives a gold star beside his/her name or a check mark. Group rewards can be effective, where you put a marble in a jar every time the group interacts well and follows the rules, and when the marbles reach a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Разработайте базовые правила поведения в классе. В первый же день занятий ознакомьте учеников с правилами и выскажите свои ожидания относительно их поведения.

Регулярно напоминайте ученикам об установленных правилах. Применяйте на практике установленные вами правила.


Choose broccoli at the peak of broccoli season, in June or July. Look for broccoli with green, tight florets that have not begun to separate or turn yellow. Avoid broccoli with brown spots or bruises. Make sure you remove any dirt, bugs or traces of pesticides.  If you live in an area where pests or broccoli worms are a problem, prepare a saltwater bath and soak the broccoli for half an hour. This will kill the bugs and cause them to rise to the surface. Discard the saltwater, rinse the broccoli, and proceed.     Remove all leaves from the broccoli.    Slice the lower stem into chunks about 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm) thick - about the thickness of a water chestnut. Discard the woody end of the stem. Squeeze in the juice of half a lemon, stir and let sit for about 5 minutes. Pour the lemon-water into the cooking pot. Using a steamer basket to measure, add enough water so that the steamer basket will sit about 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the water. Remove the steamer basket after checking the water level. If you don't have a steamer basket, just add enough water to cover the amount of broccoli you are processing. Covering the pot with a lid makes the water boil faster and conserves energy. Cover the pot and bring it back to full boil. Once boiling has resumed, steam the broccoli for 5 minutes. If you aren't using a steamer basket, place the broccoli directly into the boiling water. Blanch it for two minutes, then remove it using a slotted spoon. Either place it under cold running water or plunge it into ice water. If you aren't using a steamer basket, transfer the broccoli directly from the pot to a colander, then cool it. Lay flat to freeze.  Put enough broccoli in each bag to make a meal for your family. This way you'll be able to defrost exactly as many as you need instead of the entire batch of broccoli. A rough measurement is one handful of florets per serving.     If you aren't using a vacuum sealer, close the zippered bag almost all the way. Insert a straw into the opening. Draw out the remaining air through the straw....

Соберите или купите брокколи. Промойте брокколи. Разрежьте брокколи на соцветия около 2.5 см в поперечнике. Положите брокколи в миску и залейте водой. Добавьте в кастрюлю еще воды. Накройте кастрюлю крышкой и доведите воду до кипения. Положите брокколи в корзинку-пароварку и опустите в кастрюлю. Достаньте корзинку-пароварку и сразу же охладите брокколи. Разложите брокколи в полиэтиленовые пакеты для хранения пищевых продуктов в морозильной камере и заморозьте.


Choose chukka boots, also called bucks or turf boots, to go with anything from jeans and a t-shirt to slim cuffed pants and a solid button-down. Combat or motorcycle boots can be worn with dark clothes and leather for an edgier style. Opt for a more formal boot like Chelsea boots to slip on with a suit or business-casual pants and button-down. Pair a quality, well-cleaned work or hiking boot with a t-shirt and jeans for a look you can wear all the time.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выбирайте повседневные ботинки. Носите ботинки на работу. Используйте рабочий стиль в качестве повседневного.


Choose clothes made of natural fibers with a loose weave, such as cotton or linen. Light colors can also help keep you cooler since they don’t absorb as much light and heat as dark colors. Sweat stains show up most visibly on gray clothing, so try to avoid that color. Bring an extra shirt and a pair of pants or skirt that you can change into if you have sweaty spots on your outfit. Before changing, use a cloth or a handkerchief to wipe away excess sweat. Additionally, bring extra socks if your feet sweat a lot.  If necessary, swap out sweaty socks for a fresh pair 2 or 3 times a day. Pack extra clothes in a backpack or compact travel bag. You could also keep extra clothes in your car or in your office at work. Moisture-wicking apparel is made of specially designed fabric that absorbs and dispels sweat. Wear moisture-wicking undershirts and underwear to avoid visible sweat stains on your outer clothes. Moisture-wicking apparel can be pricey. Cotton undergarments are more affordable and can absorb sweat, but they’re not as effective as specialty performance apparel. If your hands sweat a lot, try spraying them with an aerosol antiperspirant in the morning and before bedtime. Rubbing them with baby powder, baking soda, or cornstarch as needed could also help keep them dry.  Remember to dry your hands well with a towel or blow dryer before applying antiperspirant. If your hands are often clammy, avoid using thick, oily lotions that contain petroleum jelly. Leather and other natural materials are good choices for dress shoes. When shopping for sneakers, look for options that have small holes for air circulation.  Additionally, wear sandals or go barefoot whenever possible so your feet can breathe. You could also purchase moisture-wicking athletic socks. If your head and face sweat a lot and ruin your makeup, apply a matting primer before foundation, blush, and eye makeup. After applying your makeup, finish with a setting spray or powder to prevent it from running.  You should also carry blotting wipes to soak up...

TL;DR in Russian:

Носите легкую одежду, которая хорошо пропускает воздух. Носите с собой сменную одежду и запасные носки. Приобретите одежду из специальной ткани, которая хорошо впитывает влагу.

Используйте в жаркую погоду фиксирующий спрей или пудру для макияжа.


Choose colors that are classic and bright for a theme that will last your child into their teens and beyond. Teal, bright green, white, and red make a good color palette that works for any gender child and will still appeal to a teen. A dark blue room with hints of silver throughout is a great basis for a room. Space is a fun theme for a kid that will still be "cool" when they're 16, if you do it right. Get items like a moon lamp, bedding with stars, icicle lights around the top of the room, and other details that draw the room together. And under-the-water look will appeal to lots of kids and it's easy to help it grow up with them. Use colors like light and dark teal, seafoam, and a few hints of green. This room works particularly well if you have beige carpets already installed. A couple of stuffed fish friends and something like a jellyfish lamp can further draw the room together. Excite your child's sense of adventure by giving them a room that any explorer would love. Paint the room with the muted colors of maps (off-white, light green, beige, and maybe some hints of red), and decorate with globes, vintage suitcase storage, airplane mobiles, and train maps. Some greens and browns, with a few hints of blues can create the basis of a room that your child can enjoy for years to come. This is a great room for a kid that loves stuffed animals, as they'll fit right in! Get a unique look by creating a wall tree out of paper, and a circular blue rug makes a great "pond" at the center of the room. If your little girl longs to be a princess, avoid painting the whole room pink by going with a fairy tale castle theme instead. Grassy green on the lower part of the walls and sky blue on the upper parts will create the look of rolling hills, some tall gray bookshelves can be painted to look like towers, and a stuffed dragon in the corner can complete the look.

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте светлые простые цвета. Космическая тема. Океаническая тема. Тема путешествий. Тема природы. Сказочная тема.


Choose fun, funky colors like bright pink, aqua, or lime green. This adds a splash of color to your outfits and beach looks, and you can easily pair this with bright-colored accessories as well. You can go with a solid-colored swimsuit in a bright color, or a colorful patterned one piece. For example, look for a bathing suit in hot pink or a suit with hot pink polka dots. Choose a darker color like black, blue, or purple for a flattering and slimming silhouette. These tones hide any uneven areas, so you can confidently take a dip or lay out in the sun.  White and light-colored swimsuits are much more revealing. They can show off imperfections that dark suits conceal, such as love handles. Swimsuits without much pattern or detailing work well as a slimming option. If you want to cover up just a bit, look for swimsuits that have a more conservative bottom. Many adorable styles come in boyshort or skirt options. That way, you won’t have anything to be self-conscious about when you wear your one piece. When shopping, you can ask an associate if they carry any of these styles. If you are having trouble finding them, order your bathing suit online. If you want a bathing suit with a sexy touch, look for deep “V” tops or flirty accents, like straps or ties. Small details like this can take a simple one piece to the next level! In addition, you can look for cut-out style one piece suits, where only the front of the suit is attached. To add some enhancement and emphasis to your chest, pick out one pieces with detailing on the top. This adds a flirty touch to your suit.  For example, look for patterns like polka dot or floral print, or go for ruffles or colored liners. If you want a bit more definition, you can also add bra inserts to your bathing suit top. If you want a bit more comfort while wearing your bathing suit, opt for a suit with an underwire top. This provides support and comfort whether you are lounging by the pool or wearing your one piece on a date. Underwire can also provide some lift and definition, and...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите цельный купальник в яркой расцветке или узоре для создания эффектного образа. Если вы хотите выглядеть стройнее, подберите темный однотонный купальник. В качестве более консервативного варианта выберите купальник с юбочкой или низом-шортиками. Подберите цельный купальник со шнуровкой или глубоким вырезом для создания кокетливого образа. Подберите купальник с оборками или забавным рисунком в верхней части, если у вас небольшая грудь. Для более поддерживающего верха подберите купальник с чашками на косточках. Старайтесь не выбирать купальники, у которых много деталей или узоров в области живота.


Choose granulated white sugar, if you have it. Alternately, you can use coconut sugar, brown sugar or cane sugar. Use only a cup of sugar at a time.  Refined white sugar, when ground, has the closest texture to icing sugar. Breaking down more than a cup at a time won’t produce results as even in consistency. Combine cornstarch with granulated sugar if you’re going to store the sugar. Cornstarch helps prevent clumps so your sugar maintains a powdered consistency.  If you plan to use the sugar right away, cornstarch isn’t necessary. If you’re low on cornstarch, one teaspoon (six grams) will work. Pour the sugar into a glass blender or food processor. Add cornstarch, if desired. Pulse it for about two minutes.  Alternately, you can use a spice grinder or coffee grinder, but be aware these may absorb flavor from previously-used spices or coffee. You may want to avoid using a plastic blender. It’s unlikely – but possible – that sugar crystals may cause scratches to a plastic appliance. If you’re using a blender or food processor with multiple settings, choose “pulse” or “blend.” Wipe the spatula along the inside of the blender. Mix the sugar well so that it will blend and break down evenly. Turn off and unplug the appliance, if applicable. Pick up a bit of sugar in your fingers and feel the texture. Resume grinding the sugar if it feels gritty, until its texture is powdery. The sugar is done when it looks fine-grained and fluffy like confectioners’ sugar. Stir the sugar with a fork. Place a mesh strainer over a bowl. Spoon the sugar into the strainer. Tap the side of the sieve repeatedly to sift the sugar into the bowl.  Sifting aerates the sugar so that it’s lighter, fluffier and clump-free. If you don’t have a sifter, you can use a tea strainer or colander. Alternately, you can aerate the sugar by mixing it with a wire whisk. Use your newly ground sugar in place of confectioners’ sugar in your favorite icing recipe. Make cake icing, such as buttercream or cream cheese icing. Frost cupcakes with peanut butter or...

Choose hair colors one to two shades darker than natural color for natural results. For more dramatic results, go for shades two to four shades darker. If this is your first time dyeing your hair, you may want to try using temporary or semi-permanent dye rather than permanent dye.  Temporary dyes tend to wash out after one shampoo.  Semi-permanent dyes will wash out after 20 to 26 shampoos. Permanent dyes may fade, but they usually stay in your hair until it grows out. Highlights are essentially the opposite of lowlights. Highlight colors should be one to two shades lighter than your natural hair color. For more dramatic results, go for shades three to four shades darker. You may need to bleach your hair to highlight it, which is best done in a salon. Make sure your five sections are roughly even. There should be one section on the top of your head. Then, on either side of your head, separate the hair into two sections. When you're done, you should be left with one section of hair on top and four sections on the sides. Use rubber bands or hair clips to secure your hair. In other words, you should have three sections in the front of your head, and two in the back. Let down one of the sections. Starting at the top of the section, insert the end of your comb through your hair. Only a very thin section of hair should be on top of the end of the comb. Remember that for both highlight and lowlights, you should apply dye to very thin chunks of hair. This method creates more defined highlights and lowlights. Weaving and slicing are very similar, except when weaving you move the end of the comb through the surface of the hair in a subtle in-and-out pattern (rather than “slicing” in a straight line) to separate pieces of hair. The weaving method produces less defined, more natural-looking highlights and lowlights. Wrap a towel you are comfortable getting dye on around your shoulders. The towel will catch any dye drips and you can use it to dry your hair after the rinsing phase of the dyeing process. Secure the towel in...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите краску темных тонов. Выберите краску светлого оттенка. Разделите волосы на пять прядей. Используйте метод разделения на слои, чтобы получить эффектный образ. Чтобы вид был максимально естественным, применяйте метод вплетения, когда разделяете волос на пряди. Защитите себя и окружающее пространство от пятен. Наденьте перчатки для окрашивания волос.


Choose nylon tights that you would not care to get dirty. The majority of tights are made of nylon and microfiber, followed by cotton and microfiber. Check the tag of your tights; you will most likely own many made of nylon. Nylon tights will not harm your clothing. You can wash the nylons, and they'll be good as new. Blow at the stain to remove any excess powder sitting on top of the fabric. You can either blow on the stain using your breath, or use a hairdryer.   Make sure to use the hairdryer on the coolest setting. Using heat will only help the makeup set into the fabric, which you do not want. Hold the clothing taut and horizontal in front of you. Blow the makeup completely away from you so none of the powdered makeup gets back on your clothing. Holding a section of the tights in one hand, use them to gently brush away at the stain. This brushing motion will pick up any remaining powdered makeup. Keep brushing until all the makeup is gone.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите старые колготки, чтобы собрать порошок вроде пудры, румян и теней для век. Удалите верхний слой косметики. Счистите пятно колготками.


Choose one cane on either side of the trunk. The canes should be about as thick as your pinky finger and grow close to the head of the vine.  The "head" of the vine lies at the intersection between your main trunk and the top of your support system. The canes you choose should have close buds and a brown outer layer of bark from base to tip. Make sure that they have not suffered any visible damage, either. Note that this method of pruning is not recommended for American grape varieties. It is suitable for use with most wine grapes, but you should do some research about your particular grape variety before you choose to use this method of pruning. Bend the canes down to either side of your trunk and tie them in place. These canes will become permanent arms that will remain intact for the life of your vine. Cut off the top of both permanent fruiting arms, leaving only four buds on each arm. Cut off the remaining canes at trunk level, leaving only your two permanent arms in place. This is the last bit of pruning you will do during the second year. During each following year, new spurs will grow on your permanent fruiting arms, and fruit will be produced from these spurs. Trim each new spur back during the end of the dormancy season so that they are only two to three buds long. As the vine ages, you may need to cut back older spurs to two buds, as well.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите пару отростков. Направьте эти отростки по направлению ствола. Укоротите плодоносные отростки. Удалите всю остальную старую древесину. Подрезайте новые отростки каждый год.


Choose one made of cotton or other light plant matter, such as hemp or linen. Make sure you have enough material to create a dress for your shape and height. You'll probably want a lighter or darker brown for an accent color, too. This will be at your waistline and as fringe on the top and bottom. Be less concerned with the texture of this accent color -- but for your dress, make sure it won't irritate your skin. Basic patterns can be found online or at any fabric supply store. What's more, you can pick a pattern that you think will look best for your body type. Don't forget to include the strips at the base of the costume and at the top half of the costume. To create the fringe, just cut strips in a wide layer of fabric and attach to the top and bottom seam. A thin rope would also work. Anything that is earthy and doesn't scream factory-made will do the job.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите материал землистого цвета. Сделайте платье в стиле Покахонтас (посмотрите на фото, чтобы разобраться в форме). Прикрепите ремень из хлопка.


Choose one or more marker colors to use with your stencil. Black is a classic option, and may be the most likely to help your tattoo pass as a real one. Using another color can be just as fun.  Permanent markers contain chemicals that aren't meant to be used on skin. Look for markers that are labeled as safe for this type of use.  If you'd rather not use permanent markers, washable markers are also fine. The tattoo just won't last quite as long. Another good ink choice is stamping ink, which comes on wet stamping pads. To use this type of ink for your tattoo, press a cotton ball onto the ink pad and use it to wipe the ink over the stencil and onto your skin.

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите перманентные маркеры.


Choose one that matches the setting you chose on your voltmeter's knob. If there is no exact match, read from a scale that's an easy multiple of the setting. For example, if your voltmeter is set to DC 10V, look for a DC scale with a max reading of 10. If this isn't available, find one with a max of 50. This is a linear scale just like a ruler. For instance, a needle pointing halfway between 30 and 40 indicates a reading of 35V. Skip this step if you are reading from a scale that exactly matches your voltmeter's setting. Otherwise, correct for the difference by dividing the printed scale's max value by your knob setting. Divide the number the needle points to by your answer to get the actual voltage. For example, if your voltmeter is set to 10V but you are reading off a 50V scale, calculate 50 ÷ 10 = 5. If the needle is pointing at 35V, your actual result is 35 ÷ 5 = 7V.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите шкалу напряжения на конце стрелки. Высчитайте предполагаемое положение стрелки на основании соседних цифр. Разделите полученный показатель, если используете другую шкалу.


Choose one with a wide, flat bottom and tall sides. Dip a paper towel in a little bit of vegetable or olive oil and smear the oil around the inside of the mug. You could also spray the mug with non-stick cooking spray. Melting butter into the mug is another option. These will form the quiche's "crust." Crush up the crackers and pour them into the bowl. In a separate bowl, beat together two eggs and a tablespoon of milk. Add a pinch of salt, a shake of pepper, and a handful of your favorite quiche fillings. Here are a few ideas:  Chopped ham, bacon or sausage (precooked) Chunks of feta cheese Shredded gruyere cheese Chopped spinach Chopped tomatoes It will cover up the crackers and rise up the sides of the bowl. Use a plate or a paper towel. Microwave it on high for 3 minutes. Check the quiche when it's finished cooking to make sure it's set. Scoop it out with the spoon and enjoy.

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите подходящую для микроволновой печи большую кружку. Смажьте маслом дно и стенки. Насыпьте на дно кружки дробленые масляные крекеры. Приготовьте яичную начинку. Залейте в кружку яичную смесь. Накройте кружку. Приготовьте пирог. Ешьте пирог прямо из кружки.


Choose one with a wide, flat bottom, since this will be the shape of your omelet. The larger the base, the wider and thinner your omelet will be. Dip a paper towel in a little bit of vegetable or olive oil and smear the oil around the inside of the bowl. You could also spray the mug or bowl with non-stick cooking spray. Melting butter into the bowl is another option. Use a fork to beat them until smooth. Pour in a tablespoon of milk, a pinch of salt and a shake of black pepper. Anything goes, as long as your fillings are chopped or shredded into small, bite-sized pieces. Try the following delicious fillings in your microwaved omelet:  Shredded cheddar or swiss cheese Chopped onions Chopped peppers Chopped tomatoes Chopped spinach Chopped ham, bacon or sausage (precooked) Use a microwave safe plate or a paper towel. After it's finished cooking, check the omelet to see if it's set. If it still needs more time, microwave for another 30 seconds. Keep going until it's fully cooked. Use a spatula to help it out of the bowl if necessary.

TL;DR in Russian:

Choose red, white or onion "sets" to plant. Available at your local nursery, these look like bare-root mini bulbs that come bound with twine or rubber bands. Any type of onion sets will make excellent green onions, and they all grow well in pots indoors. Green onions grow best in very rich soil, so choose a potting soil that has been enriched with compost - or mix in your own compost with standard potting soil. Fill the pot to within a few inches of the top. Water the soil to prepare it for planting. Be sure the pot you use drains well, so that the soil never gets waterlogged. Plant each onion 1 inch deep, pointing the root side down. Gently pat soil over the top. Space them 1 1/2 to 2 inches apart to allow them a little room to form roots without crowding each other. Water the onions and place the pot in your sunniest window.  You can grow green onions indoors any time of year, as long as you maintain the correct conditions. The onions need full sun, so they should be placed in a window that receives light for most of the day. Be sure the temperature never drops below freezing. Keep the soil evenly moist. Water every few days, or when the soil seems to be getting dry. Don't overwater the onions, though - the soil should be moist, but never soggy. After a few weeks, the green tops will emerge and grow. Either pull the plants from the pots to use the whites and greens, or use a scissors to trim off the green tops and leave the bulb to continue growing. If you leave the bulb in the pot, you should get at least one more harvest before it stops producing.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите красные, белые или луковые саженцы для посадки. Подготовьте горшок с плодородной почвой. Посадите саженцы. Собирайте урожай, когда зелень достигнет 15-20 см в высоту.


Choose round bottles with flat bases and wide mouths. You can also do this with jars. Number them 1 through 5. Add the following amounts to the water bottles:  Bottle 1: 19 oz. This will produce an F note. Bottle 2: 13 oz. This will produce a G note. Bottle 3: 11 oz. This will produce an A note. Bottle 4: 8 oz. This will produce a C note. Bottle 5: 6 oz. This will produce a D note. Tap the spoon against the sides of the bottles to produce notes.

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите 5 бутылок по 0,6 л. Наполните бутылки разным количеством воды. Играйте на бутылках металлической ложкой.


Choose several cities that you find appealing. You can probably find somewhere where jobs in your field are plentiful, and that you'd like to live in as well.  Look for cities that have affordable housing and living costs, a wide selection of jobs, available housing, good healthcare facilities, and schools and places of worship adequate to your needs. You also should consider if you have friends of friends or others from your country of origin in that area. Climate in the United States is quite varied; research the seasonal averages to ensure you are comfortable with the local extremes or natural hazards, such as earthquakes or hurricanes. Look at the typical salary for your profession. Examine the Bureau of Labor statistics regarding wages by section of the country and job category to get an idea of the salary you may be able to negotiate in various regions of the country. You can also look on job search websites such as craigslist.com, linkedin.com, indeed.com or others. The Occupational Outlook Handbook provides in depth information about job prospects in most major fields. The information is updated annually and includes information about education or experience needed for the type of job as well as an outlook and a general description of job duties. Some cities are better than others, depending on what you do.  The coasts, San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles are very expensive. You may find those places attractive if you have a very highly paid profession, such as Engineering, Programming, Mathematics and so on. If you have a profession that "can go anywhere" such as nurse, school teacher, doctor, you may want to look for a smaller town that is cheaper to live in and may have not enough professionals. If you are an entrepreneur, you may find smaller towns cheaper, yet less welcoming to foreigners.

TL;DR in Russian:

Исследуйте американские города. Просмотрите должности по вашей специализации в отдельных выбранных городах, прежде чем эмигрировать в Америку. Сопоставьте доступные рабочие вакансии с тем образом жизни, какой вы хотите вести в США.


Choose shoulder or flank meat for minced beef, pork, or lamb. Stick with dark meat for chicken and turkey. These cuts are cheaper and have the right amount of fat for proper mince. Better cuts of meat like rib eye or chops are not usually ground up. If you are not sure exactly what to buy, ask the butcher or a person at the meat counter of your local grocery store.

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите недорогие обрезки мяса.


Choose someone who runs about the same speed as yourself if possible, as this provides encouragement and friendly competition. While you can train alone, training with a team of similar runners is a huge motivation booster. But, for some people a running buddy can slow you down, so you don't have to have a running buddy, but it's a good option to consider. Whether your goal is 10 minutes, 8 minutes or 6 minutes, you have to be extremely focused to break a personal record. The body will emulate your thoughts. If you believe something won't happen, then it most likely won't happen. after warmups and cool downs. Always do a 5 to 10 minute warmup and cool down. Adding warmups and cool downs to your routine will prevent injury. Posture is crucial and sometimes is what prevents many people from running faster.  Look at the horizon, not at your feet. Tilting your head at this angle will align and straighten your neck and back. Keep your shoulders level and loose. If they start to come up toward your ears, then stop running and shake them out or stretch them gently. Place your arms at a 90-degree angle and allow them to go forward and backward instead of across your body. Keep your fists unclenched with your finger lightly touching your palms. Run tall. If you find that your torso is slouching, then take a deep breath and feel your torso naturally straighten. Maintain the improved posture while you exhale. Keep your hips naturally aligned with your torso. Bending at the hips puts unwanted pressure on your lower back. Take the right size strides. With each step, your foot should land directly beneath your body with your knee slightly bent. If your foot is landing in front of your body, then you are taking too long of a stride. Drink plenty of water. Around 64 fluid ounces of liquid a day. Strength training will improve your stamina, and plyometrics will help you to bring bursts of speed to your run.

TL;DR in Russian:

Пригласите друга побегать. Сосредоточьте свое внимание. После разминки потянитесь и отдохните. Научитесь правильно бегать. Избегайте обезвоживания. Добавьте силовые тренировки и плиометрику.


Choose strands from around your face for a pretty look. Pin them back with a crossover clip. Position the clip horizontally to clip back the strands of hair. You can curl it, straighten it or just let it stay natural. If you decide to curl or straighten you hair, make sure you use products for heat protection so you won't damage your hair.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разделите волосы на две части и соберите верхнюю часть в хвост. Разделите ее надвое. Оставшиеся волосы оставьте свободно спадать.


Choose the area of ground from which you’ll be taking soil and cultivate the area. Remove any dead leaves, weeds, plant trimmings and other debris. Rake through the soil and smooth it out so that it is level. Do not use areas that contain pesticides, chemicals or other pollutants. This can contaminate your soil. The water should reach approximately 12 inches deep into the soil. This will improve how well heat will conduct through the soil, heating it up and solarizing it thoroughly. Seal in the soil under a plastic sheet; you can use a painter’s tarp, which is readily available at home supply stores. Place rocks or line soil along the edges of the sheet to hold them down. There will be a good deal of heat generated and trapped under the plastic sheet, which will work to solarize the soil and kill unwanted pests, pathogens, and weeds. Summertime with hot and sunny weather is the ideal time to solarize soil.  Leaving the tarp on longer than 4-6 weeks will result in a disintegrating tarp. You can rotate the areas of your garden that are being solarized , devoting a section of the garden to solarizing soil while another section has growing plants. Covering the ground like this in the colder months will actually create better conditions for weeds by warming the soil. Only do this during warmer months. Fill glass or metal baking pans full of soil. Cover tightly with tin foil and bake at 200 °F (93 °C) for about 30 minutes. Stir the soil every 5 minutes as it bakes. Allow to cool completely. Your house will smell earthy when you use this method, which can be off-putting to some people.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обработайте почву граблями. Тщательно полейте почву. Покройте землю прозрачной полиэтиленовой пленкой. Оставьте землю в таком виде на 4-6 недель. В качестве альтернативы простерилизуйте почву в духовке.


Choose the best shoes for where you'll run. Road shoes for the road, trail shoes for rougher terrain: this will keep your feet protected and help with traction. Account for your arches. You'll need more or less support, depending on how high of an arch you have. The shape of the shoe itself will also need to change. Go to your local major shoe store to get help with this. Check your heel movement. Some people roll their heels, either out or in, as they run. This will also affect the type of shoe you need. Check some old shoes for wear to get an idea of how you move. Tie your shoes correctly. Did you know you can lace your shoes differently to make them fit better? There are methods to create more space in the toes, or support high arches. Even ways to keep heels in place if they tend to slip!  Get the right size! Correct fit is key in making sure your shoes are as comfortable as possible. Even if you think you know what size you are, be willing to be wrong because it can make a huge difference in how you feel afterwards. Shoot for good movement. You should be choosing clothes that are loose or flexible, so that they allow for a good range of movement. You'll also want clothes in shapes and materials that breathe well. This can help reduce rashes and other skin problems. Factor in weather and temperature. You'll probably need more than one jogging outfit (depending on where you live). Have clothes that are warmer and provide more coverage for if you go running in the winter, for example. Don't forget about pockets. You'll want pockets in order to carry important things like your ID and your keys. Alternatively, though, you can use other things like your shoes or an armband. You'll also want to wear the right kind of socks. Look for socks specifically marketed for runners. This can help prevent blisters. Get an mp3 player. Smaller players, like an iPod nano, are great for using while you're jogging. There are even several wristbands that they can be fit into. Find something to listen to. Music is the obvious...

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите правильную обувь. Купите удобную одежду, подходящую для бега. Подумайте о дополнительных развлечениях.


Choose the option that makes you feel the best. You have a few options:   Shave it all off. There are no health risks to shaving all of your hair off as long as you do it hygienically, use a new razor, use an anti-septic after shaving and don't cut yourself.  Use a stencil. You will place a stencil, like a small heart, over your pubic area. Then, you'll shave around the stencil to leave a section of hair with a fun shape over your pubic area. You can find stencil kits at most adult stores or online.  Create a landing strip. Your landing strip, or a line extending up from your labial part toward your belly button, can be either whisper thin (good for thick, unruly hair) or slightly wider (for thin, sparse hair). Your razor may be gel-filled and have more blades than a small child can count, but you still need to be nice to it. Any longer and it won't work as efficiently.  To trim the most efficiently, pull the hair toward you and cut in small sections. It doesn't all have to be even, it just has to be short. If the idea of taking scissors down there...gives you the heebie jeebies, use electric trimmers that don't have rotating heads. The blades can only get so close to your skin. You can also soak in the tub for a little while before standing up in the shower to shave the area. Getting the follicles soft will make the hair easier to shave on the first go-round. If you want to wash the area, clean it before you start shaving to avoid irritating your exposed skin later. If you're away from a shower (and have a desperate, desperate need to shave your bikini area -- maybe you're stranded on a desert island?), take a wet washcloth and leave it on the area for 5 to 10 minutes. The same effect can be garnered from this, too. You're probably going to come across people or places that tell you to lather, shave, and exfoliate -- in that order. But if you wanna be a pubic shaving pro (and who doesn't?!), exfoliate before and after. It'll align your hairs all in the same direction, making your razor's job ten times...

TL;DR in Russian:

Решите, как должен выглядеть ваш лобок. Перед тем как пойти в душ, подстригите волосы на лобке ножницами. Примите душ и увлажните волосы. Избавьтесь от омертвевших клеток. Намочите зону бикини теплой водой и нанесите гель для бритья. Слегка намочите новую бритву. Брейте длинными, медленными движениями по направлению роста волос.


Choose the right place to talk to your friend. If you ask them in front of people, they might become embarrassed and not answer honestly. For example,  if you're out to coffee or lunch, your friend may not want other people to hear their response, even if they're strangers. If you want to talk, pick a time when it's just the two of you. Have the conversation in private where there are no prying ears. Talk in the car, on a walk, or another private place. Don't ask your friend when they are in the middle of working on something, on their phone, talking to someone, or when they have something on their mind, like a test tomorrow. Ideally, you want your friend to have some time to talk without having any interruptions or distractions. For example, if you're at your friend's house and their parents or siblings often interrupt, go somewhere where interruptions will not occur. You should feel prepared to listen, talk, and support your friend. Don't be distracted by anything, and have some time set aside for your friend. Don't have other things on your mind or things that might distract you, like anticipating a phone call. Set aside some time that you have free.  Remember that you cannot 'fix' someone's problems. If the person isn't ready to talk or doesn't want to, be prepared to let it go. If you think you might get nervous talking about something personal, you could write down some bullet points you want to address.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поговорите с другом наедине. Выберите время, когда ничто и никто не будет вас отвлекать. Будьте готовы к разговору.


Choose the sink nearest to your hot water heater and let it run for at least 3 minutes. For the first few minutes, any water running out of the sink will have already been in the pipes. It needs to clear out before you test the water heater so you can get an accurate reading. Put the water in a bowl or cup and take its temperature immediately. Leave the thermometer in the water for at least 20-30 seconds to get a trustworthy reading. While cold water is a problem, you also don't want your water temperature to be too hot. If it reaches anywhere above 120 °F (49 °C), you run the risk of sustaining burns. Consult the following numbers to see the relationship between temperature and how long it will take to produce serious burns:  120 °F (49 °C): 5+ minutes 125–130 °F (52–54 °C): 60-120 seconds 130–140 °F (54–60 °C): 5-30 seconds 140–150 °F (60–66 °C): 1-5 seconds 150–160 °F (66–71 °C): 1-1 1/2 seconds 160 °F (71 °C) or above: Immediately If the reading is too low or too high, re-adjust the water heater as needed and check the temperature again in 3 hours. The water heater will need time to change its internal temperature and warm or cool the water to the correct temperature.

TL;DR in Russian:

Откройте горячую воду на 3–5 минут. Измерьте температуру воды кухонным термометром. Запишите температуру. При необходимости проверьте температуру снова примерно через 3 часа.


Choose the two shades of nail polish you wish to mix. Mixing only two polish colors is recommended, because mixing more than two colors can make the mixture appear muddy. Normally, using nail polishes with the same base type (glitter, sheer, opaque, matte, etc.) makes for an overall better polish mixture.  Mixing primary colors is a good rule of thumb to follow when mixing colors. For example, to make a purple polish, mix together a red and blue polish. To make a green polish, mix together a yellow and blue polish. Like colors tend to mix well too. For example, to make a hot orange, mix together a darker orange with a yellow. To make a lighter shade of pink, mix together a deeper pink with white polish. Nail polishes of the same brand tend to blend together the best. That’s because every brand uses their own polish formula, and polishes of the same brand will most likely accept each other and combine well. A plastic paint palette is one of the easiest surfaces to use and clean, but you can use any surface that is clean, flat, and you don't mind staining. Paper plates, wax paper sheets, and tin foil are all common surfaces used for mixing nail polish.  Do not use a styrofoam surface for mixing. The nail polish will destroy the styrofoam and produce holes in the material. You may want to put down a layer of newspaper underneath your workspace, in case of nail polish spills.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите лаки для смешивания. Выберите поверхность для смешивания.


Choose thread that’s the same color as the shirt you want to fix so that your work doesn't stand out. You can also use clear thread that will be invisible on your shirt.  Check to see if you already have any thread that matches your shirt. If you don't, take your shirt with you to a fabric store and find the thread that most closely matches your shirt. If you can’t find an exact match, go with a darker thread rather than a lighter one. A darker color that is still similar to the shirt's color is likely to blend in and not be noticeable. Use a matte thread and avoid thread that is reflective or shiny. Matte thread will be less noticeable. with your chosen thread. Use scissors to cut off a piece of thread from the spool that's about 24 inches (61 cm) long. Insert one end of the thread through the small hole at the head of the needle. Pull the thread through the hole until the two ends of the thread are the same distance from the needle. Tie the two ends of the thread together in a knot. Try dampening the tip of the thread by placing it on the tip of your tongue briefly if you're having trouble getting it through the needle hole. Poke the needle through the fabric at the top and to the right of the hole from the inside out. Poke through the fabric about .2 inches (0.51 cm) above the hole. If you’re any closer to the hole, the thread may pull out and your stitch could fall apart. Keep pulling the needle up through the fabric until the knot you made at the end of the thread catches on the fabric. Position the needle directly to the left of where you first poked the needle through. The closer you are to the previous stitch, the more secure the thread holding the hole together will be when you’re finished. This will allow you to pull the fabric on the left and right sides of the hole together. The goal is to make close stitches that pull the sides of the hole back together. Repeat your stitches back and forth across the hole. Bring the needle down through the hole in your shirt and poke it up through the fabric...

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите нитки в тон материала рубашки. Вставьте выбранную нить в иголку. Для начала штопки у верхнего правого угла от отверстия введите иглу в ткань со стороны изнанки. Проведите иглу обратно на изнанку через дырку и снова выведите на лицо через ткань, но уже слева. Продолжайте чередовать левые и правые стежки, постепенно зашивая дырку. Выведите иголку с ниткой на изнаночную сторону и завяжите несколько узелков. Обрежьте лишнюю нить.


Choose two canes that are roughly the same thickness as your pinky finger. Ideally, they should grow as near to the head of the vine as possible, and the buds should be close together.  The "head" of the vine is the point at which the trunk intersects with the top wire of your support system. The two canes should be positioned on either side of the trunk. These two canes will be your primary canes. During the following season of growth, they will grow new shoots that can bear fruit. Selecting canes close to the trunk head prevents the arms from becoming too long. Excessively long arms can create nonproductive gaps in the vine. Make sure that your chosen canes have firm wood with a brown outer layer of bark nearly all the way to the tip. They must not have any visible damage, either. Prune your two chosen canes down so that only 8 to 10 buds remain. Tie the remaining portions of both canes to your support system. Choose four additional shoots that are thinner than your two primary canes. Trim these down to two buds each.  These spur canes will act as sources of renewal during the following year's cane production. These shoots should all be close to your primary side canes. Remove any other cane not already selected by cutting it away at trunk level.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите пару однолетних побегов. Обрежьте побеги. Оставьте в стороне один или два ответвления ростков. Обрежьте остатки ваших побегов.


Choose two contrasting colors of duct tape to make your bow. Before you make the bow itself, it is a good idea to cut out a small strip of duct tape (about 0.25 inches, or about 0.64 centimeters, in width) for the centerpiece. This will make it easier to secure the bow later. Stick the strip of duct tape to the edge of a table where you can easily grab it. Taking the second roll of duct tape, cut out a piece 18 inches (45.7 cm) in length. Fold it neatly in half (lengthwise), sticky sides together, leaving just a small strip of adhesive exposed at the end. Take both ends of the strip of duct tape and curl them upwards, to form a circle. Stick the ends together, using the small strip of adhesive that you left exposed earlier. The duct tape should now form a circular shape, like a cuff. Flatten the circle of duct tape and pinch the edges together, in the center, to form a bow shape. Take the small strip of duct tape you cut out earlier and wrap it tightly around the center of the bow to secure.

Choose what culture or cultures you would like to learn more about. Subscribe to newspapers from that culture online to know more about what they are reading. Browse websites with data on entertainment, outings, politics, or trends.  You should be able to find news sources from different cultures in your language. You don’t have to learn the language at first to get to know more about the culture, although learning the language will be helpful eventually. For example, search for “French news in English.” A great thing about the internet is that it has made the world smaller and more accessible than ever. You can find people from cultures all around the world on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. Following people or organizations from other cultures on social media is a great way to directly learn from that culture about things like their values, cuisine, and fashion. You can be specific when looking up information about other cultures on social media. Search for the accounts of notable figures in that culture, or look up webpages dedicated to specific parts of that culture, such as fashion, entertainment, art, or politics. There are plenty of ways to ask questions about a culture online directly to members of that culture. Take a look at local communities and forums that accept questions or conversations. Send in or post a question and wait for a response.  Ask what daily life is like in their culture. You can ask what current events are going on right now, and how or if it is having an effect on them. Ask what the major holidays are like there, and how they celebrate them. Always be careful when communicating with other people online. Don’t give away your personal information. Be respectful when asking questions. Research your question before asking. YouTube is another form of social media that allows passive watching or interaction. There are many channels on YouTube dedicated to a specific culture or aspects of a culture. Often, these videos are produced by people that come from that culture, or know a lot...

Choose where you want each plant to go in your garden. Keep in mind the amount of sunlight they need and the overall size they will grow. Starting with small plants can be misleading, as some may get very large and eventually need bigger plots or containers.  Typically it is safe to give about 10 inches (25.4 cm) of spacing between each plant, but make sure to read the seed package or tag on the plants to see how much room they will need. You will also want to leave enough space between rows so that you will be able to walk between them. Plan to leave about 18 inches (45.7 cm) between rows.  Try to keep your plants in groups by variety. For example, you can plant all of your vegetables in the same section of your garden, and keep your flowers or berries in another section. Find out which plants will grow the tallest, as they will create shade over time and should only be planted near other plants that will also grow tall, or near plants that require less sunlight and more shade. Using the arrangement you have devised, place each plant in the garden. Dig a hole twice the size and the same depth as the root ball, or as indicated on your seed packet. The depth will vary anywhere from 1⁄4 inch (0.6 cm)  to 2 inches (5.1 cm) for seed depth depending on what you are planting. It does not matter if you are planting in a container or in the ground. Use the depth guidelines provided on the seed packet.  Don’t dig a hole that is too deep. Only dig far enough to allow room for all of the roots without covering up the stem or leaves. The soil in the ground should be level with the soil of the plant you are planting. Gently set each plant into its hole, so as to not damage any part of it. Use your fingers or a trowel to slowly scoop dirt back into the hole over the roots. If the plant you are planting is root bound, meaning the roots are wrapping around the container, gently massage and loosen them before planting. This will help the plant roots spread out into the surrounding soil instead of continuing to wrap around the...

Choose whether you want it to be plains or water. Name your region. Next, click on a section of your region and choose "play". Go to "God Mode" and begin shaping your landscape. Steep mountains and water cannot be zoned on. Remember that trees at this point are free, and also increase land value and health. Adding trees now will be very beneficial. Then zone some low density residential. Natural Gas is little more expensive to maintain but is well worth it as the pollution is much lower. Place this a short distance away from your residential zones and turn down its budget to fulfill your needs, plus 30% more (this will save you money). You should see a bit of development move in. The power plant only provides a few jobs, so growth will be small at this stage. This is normal though. This will provide quite a few jobs. Once development begins to slow down, save your city and exit to your region.

Choose whole-grain bread and pasta over white bread and pasta. Make sure to get at least five servings of fruits and vegetables every single day. Include produce high in lycopene, a powerful antioxidant, such as red peppers and tomatoes. Lycopene is what makes fruit and vegetables red, and has been proven as a cancer-fighting ingredient. In general, the deeper and brighter the color of your produce, the better.  There are currently no guidelines as the amount of lycopene you should try to get each day. However, research indicates that for lycopene to make any difference, you would need to eat lycopene-foods all day to get the amounts needed.  Cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, bok choy and kale are also good defenses against the development of cancer. Some controlled studies have found a link between increased ingestion of cruciferous vegetables and reduced risk of prostate cancer, although the evidence is merely associative at this point. Cut back on how much red meat you eat, including beef, pork, lamb and goat. It's also a good idea to limit your consumption of processed meats, like sandwich meat and hot dogs.  Instead of red meat, eat fish with high levels of omega-3 acids, including salmon and tuna. These foods will help your prostate as well as your heart and immune system. The research about the relationship between dietary fish intake and prostate cancer prevention is largely based on correlative data and namely, the fact that the Japanese have so few cases of prostate cancer and eat large amounts of fish. Whether there is a causal relationship is still being debated.  Beans, skinless poultry, and eggs are also healthy options for protein. The properties of soy, which is found in many vegetarian dishes, fight cancer. Sources of soy include tofu, soy nuts, soy flour and soy powders. Swapping cow's milk for soy milk in your cereal or coffee is one way to get more soy into your diet. Note that recent research has found soy beans and some other specific...

Choosing a great display picture (called DP in WhatsAPP slang) is the first step to impressing a girl on WhatsApp. Use your best selfie, such as a photo of yourself doing something exciting or one from an interesting place you visited.  For example, if you love to play the guitar, use a picture of yourself jamming for your DP. When in doubt, just show off your pearly whites and use a selfie head shot with your best smile. If you don’t want to use a photo of yourself, you could set your DP to your favorite cartoon character, athlete, or a work of art. WhatsApp offers a list of preset statuses, such as "Battery about to die," but you should try to make your statuses unique. Take a minute to think about how you want to represent yourself with your status. It could be a favorite song lyric, movie, or television quote, or you could just make a quick observation about your day. If you know you and a particular girl both love a song or movie, using a quote in your status could spur a conversation. A WhatsApp profile is pretty basic and, unlike Facebook's extensive options, only includes your DP, status, availability, and contact info. However, you can show off what a WhatsApp pro you are by using hacks, such as text formatting.  You can make text in your status or text messages bold, italic, or strikethrough by typing symbols around the word you want to modify. Type asterisks around words you want bold, like *this*. Use underscores around words you want to _italicize_, and tildes around words you want to ~strikethrough~.  You can also go to privacy settings and hide your availability, but that might make it less likely that the girl you want to impress will contact you.

Choosing a rifle of insufficient quality or too expensive to shoot may greatly reduce your ability in the field.  Consider the brand of the rifle. Most brand names are good buys, but, in the current active gun-buying market, can often be overpriced. Shop around, as prices at local dealer and on-line auction prices can vary considerably. As a rule of thumb, bolt-action rifles are usually more accurate and have a slightly higher muzzle velocity than an equivalent (price and quality) semi-automatic (auto-loading) rifle. The current crop of AR15 variants have achieved much higher accuracy, and are often advertised as capable of sub-MOA (Minute Of Angle) accuracy. This means they can group shots within one "minute" of angle (roughly 1" at 100 yards) which is competitive with the better bolt guns.  Faster rifle twist ratios allow for heavier bullets to be shot more accurately through the rifle. For example, a .223 barrel with a twist ratio of 1:12 may only be able to shoot a 40-52 grain bullet accurately, while a barrel with a twist ratio of 1:9 will be able to shoot, accurately, any bullet between 40 and 65 grains, it will also compensate (to a point) the .223's tendency to tumble after penetrating a target.There are drawbacks to higher twist ratios though, muzzle velocity may be reduced by a percent or two, there can be extra wear and tear on the barrel, and over-stabilization of the bullet can result in less damage to the target (these are minor drawbacks, however).

Choosing a ring is a tricky proposition -- you want to get something she loves, but also keep it a surprise. The best way to do this is to see what other rings and jewelry she loves to wear. You don't have to be an expert in jewelry. Instead, keep your eye out for the following trends:   Style: Does he prefer colorful, vibrant pieces or understated, austere, and traditional styles?  Color: What color stones does she seem to gravitate towards? Does she lean towards color, or does she generally keep things simple in whites, silvers, and golds?  Bands: The band is the metal holding stones in place. Does she aim for silver, gold, or white? Or is she interested in funkier, more out-there designs and materials?  Size: How big are the stones or pieces on most of her jewelry? Does she like smaller, more inconspicuous jewels or big and flashy rings? Even if you take good notes on her current jewelry, many women have particular ideas about their perfect engagement rings. As you get closer to the big question, consider:  Making a comment about a friend's engagement ring and to ask her preferences at the same time. You can say something like, "I think Mary's engagement ring was a bit flashy. What do you think?" Asking her family and friends for ideas. Has she talked to them about rings or jewels that she likes? Determining her stance on diamonds. Is she an impassioned supporter of Fair Trade and human rights? Be sure to look for recycled gold and conflict-free diamonds as part of your choosing process. Diamonds account for almost 90% of all engagement rings sold, but they aren't your only option. Many people, put off by illegal "blood diamonds," the low intrinsic value of diamonds, (which companies artificially inflate), and the relative commonness of a diamond ring have decided on alternative stones. You could consider:   Sapphire: The bright blue stone is the second most common for engagement rings.  Emeralds: Bright green, you want to probably make sure she's into the color before buying.  Colored Diamonds: Yes, it is...

Choosing good clothes starts with picking ones that fit you well. The clothes you choose should be form-fitting, not baggy. However, they shouldn't be so form-fitting that they're uncomfortable.  If you've never done it, it can help to measure yourself. Take measurements at your shoulders, chest, waist, hips, and thighs, as well as your inseam. Use a measuring tape meant for measuring the body, which you can find in sewing kits or at craft stores. Your inseam is the line running from your crotch to where you want pants to fall on the inside of your leg. You can take an inseam measurement off a pair of pants that fits you well. Once you have your measurements, you can compare them to typical size charts to get an idea of what should fit. However, you'll still need to try things on because every brand runs a little differently. Don't pick something just because you think a girl will like it if it makes you uncomfortable to wear. You'll look uncomfortable wearing it, and that won't get you anywhere. That being said, think about the occasion when choosing your clothes. You don't want to wear ratty jeans and an old holey t-shirt on a first date. The girl you're dating will expect you to dress up some. If you're not sure what's appropriate, take a fashion-conscious friend along when you go shopping. Just be sure that you don't buy something that makes you really uncomfortable to wear. You can hire people who will find things that look nice on you. Having another person's opinion can be helpful in creating a new look for yourself. Another option is a subscription service that sends you clothes once a month that match your tastes and body type, that you then choose to buy or send back.  If you don't have the money for either of these options, it's fine to ask employees at the store what they think. However, they are being paid to sell clothes, so they have a vested interest in getting you to buy. Plus, many have a wide variety of other duties, so don't take up too much of their time. While you may not be able to...

Choosing lean proteins while following a low-carb diet may help to reduce the chances of increasing your cholesterol, so consider doing this. Lean proteins are those that have a lower fat content, such as:  Skinless chicken Ground turkey Lean ground beef Canned tuna in water Egg whites Low-fat cottage cheese Tofu You can eat unlimited non-starchy vegetables on most low carb diets, which will help to keep you feeling full. Some non-starchy vegetable options include:  Cucumbers Broccoli Cauliflower Spinach Zucchini Peppers Eggplant Cabbage Stocking your fridge and pantry with low-carb snacks will help to keep you feeling satisfied. Some easy low-carb snacks options include:  Celery, broccoli, peppers, and other fresh cut veggies Boiled and peeled eggs Beef jerky Raw almonds Plain Greek yogurt Staying hydrated on a low-carb diet will help to keep you feeling full and it can also help to reduce the possibility of negative side-effects, such as dehydration. Avoid drinking sugar-free sodas and other artificially sweetened beverages because these may trigger your sweet-tooth.  Stick to water and other unsweetened beverages instead. Some other good low-carb drink options include:  Unsweetened tea (hot or iced) Coffee (decaf or regular) Sparkling water with a wedge of lemon or lime

Choosing to not eat certain food groups means changing the way you live. While you can quit that food group “cold turkey,” you may find greater success maintaining your new lifestyle if you begin by incorporating one meatless meal a day into your routine, then increasing the number of meatless meals you eat every week. If you cook, try some of your favorite recipes without meat, such as making spaghetti sauce without meat or with a vegetarian meat substitute or making your morning smoothie with almond or soy milk instead of dairy. At your favorite restaurant, try your mainstay without meat: order a bean burrito with grilled vegetables instead of your regular beef and cheese burrito. Alternatives for various food groups can be single or processed plant-based foods:  Plant-based meat and poultry alternatives include beans, tofu, tempeh, textured soy protein, and Quorn products, which are made from Mycoprotein. Milk alternatives may be made from soy, rice, coconut, flax, hemp, almonds, and sunflowers. Alternatives for other dairy products, like cheese and sour cream, are made from a combination of plant-based materials. Egg substitutes include commercially-processed products and single foods like silken tofu, flaxseed meal, pureed fruit such as bananas or apples, buttermilk or yogurt, etc. Being a vegetarian doesn’t mean eating salad at every meal. Variety makes it not only more likely that you are getting enough nutrients, but also helps you stick to a lifestyle change.  Subscribe to a vegetarian cooking magazine or blog. Check out a vegetarian cookbook from the library. Shop at your local farmers’ market and ask the vendors for vegetarian recipe recommendations. Visit an ethnic restaurant in your neighborhood that you’ve never tried and sample some vegetarian dishes.  Purchase prepared foods from your local health food store’s deli or simply peruse them for inspiration. Researchers agree that healthy diets, whether they are plant-centric or not, consist of preparing more of your own meals so you know what goes...

Choosing unprocessed foods allows you to control your diet by eliminating "hidden" ingredients and excess salt. It's possible that weight gain may be coming not from the quantity of food you are eating, but the amount of sugar, salt, and other ingredients that are added to your meal. Whole foods such as vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and fish also tend to reside near the healthy "base" of the food pyramid. Studies indicate that children who participate in school-based gardening programs are twice as likely to try new foods as those who did not participate in these programs.  Nurturing your own vegetables from seeds or seedlings will inspire you toward healthy eating.  Growing your own vegetables also saves money, allowing you to keep your body fit without breaking your budget. Much like consuming whole foods, cooking from scratch improves your control over your diet.  Not only are you likely to save money by preparing your own meals, but you can eliminate additives, extra sugar and salt, and other processed ingredients. Develop your cooking skills gradually.  You may become overwhelmed if you try to take on too much, too quickly.  Start with easy recipes to increase your confidence.  Give yourself permission to learn over time and you'll find cooking is more likely to become an enduring habit.

TL;DR in Russian:

Отдавайте предпочтение непереработанным продуктам. Подумайте о том, чтобы завести сад. Готовьте пищу из сырых продуктов.


Choosing your group's name is one of the most important decisions you'll make for your group early on.  This is the name people will remember, the name you'll be endlessly promoting, and hopefully the name that will make you famous. Think about what your group's name says about your style, your personalities, and how it fits with the kind of songs you want to sing. Think of something catchy and bold. You'll want a name that is creative and draws an audience. You can't expect to shoot to stardom overnight without a well rehearsed repertoire of music.   Start by doing covers of popular songs that everyone in the band likes. If you are in a band where everyone plays an instrument, learn a few steady cover songs before trying to write your own material. At concerts, start out with cover songs and then gradually introduce your own material. Work out all the details, perfect your parts, and see what happened. You should spend many, many hours practicing to make sure everything will be perfect when you actually start performing in front of people. First impressions can be key. Make sure that your first public performance is well practiced. It is possible to manage yourselves, especially in the beginning of your group's career.  If you start accumulating gigs, it might be a good idea to look for someone with professional management experience to help your and your group members navigate the often complex music scene. There are many benefits to having a band manager. For example, they can book gigs for you, help you find a connection with a recording studio, and help you manage your group's finances. It is very important to hire a person that you trust completely to be your manager. Don't let someone scam you or push you in a direction you aren't comfortable with. Remember, you'll have to pay them for their time and work. They will work for you very hard to help you succeed. You will need to agree on fair compensation for their time and effort.

Chop off 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the bottom of the lettuce beginning at the stalk. Remove the outer, wilted leaves. Quarter the remaining lettuce into wedges by cutting the head in half, and then cut those pieces in half. Cutting the lettuce into wedges will insure finely chopped pieces. For bigger pieces, only half the head of lettuce instead of quartering it into wedges. Do not attempt to chop the lettuce without halving it, as its round shape makes it difficult to hold safely.

Chop the stems finely -- you'll be using in the stuffing. You should also scoop out a bit of the insides of the mushrooms with a spoon to make room for the stuffing. Place 3 slices of finely-chopped bacon, 1/2 cup of chopped onion, 1 finely-chopped clove of garlic, and the chopped stems together in a frying pan. Sauté them together in 2 tbsp. of olive oil. Cook them until the onion is soft and the stems have softened. This should take about 3-5 minutes.  Stir in 1 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese, 1/2 cup of soft breadcrumbs, 1/4 tsp. of oregano, and 1/4 tsp. of salt into the mixture. Gently mix the ingredients until they are all combined.   Bake them for ten minutes -- long enough for the cheese to melt, but not long enough to burn the ingredients. Enjoy this delicious treat on its own or with a dollop of sour cream.

Chop your chocolate into small pieces, or use chocolate disks, sold by many manufacturers at gourmet stores or online from professional chocolate suppliers. The more chocolate you use, the easier the process is to manage.  Try to chop your chocolate as uniform as possible. Chocolate that's uniformly chopped will melt evenly and lower the risk of scorching. If you want, you can use a serrated knife to cut the chocolate into even chunks, or you can look for chocolate chips that are evenly molded. Set aside approximately 1/3 of the chopped chocolate for later use. It will not be used in the initial double-boiling. Fill it just full enough so that your other bowl — your bowl with chocolate — will rest nicely inside without spilling the water. Melt it gently over a pot of very gently simmering water by resting the bowl on the top of the pot of water. The bowl should be bigger than the pot and should not be submerged in the water, but resting on the edge of the pot.  Do not bring the water underneath the chocolate to a boil. Also, don't rush the melting by turning up the heat on the stove. Trying to melt the chocolate too soon will cause it to scorch, ruining the taste and the tempering process. Be careful not to allow any water to get in the chocolate, or it will seize. This is very important. Once the chocolate is fully melted it should feel warm to the touch. Place the bowl of melted chocolate into the bowl with ice water, and begin to stir slowly but constantly. Once it begins to thicken and reaches a temperature of 95°–100°F, crystallization or "tempering" is occurring, and you can remove it from the cold water. Incorporate the two forms of chocolate so that the final mixture is smooth. It should set up hard, firm, and shiny with 2 to 3 minutes, in a 65°-72°F environment. If it appears spotty or dull, you need to continue stirring, applying heat or cold as necessary to keep it soft and workable, but not too thin. It should feel cool to the touch; a good test spot for temperature is to place a dot on your lower...

Chords are when you play more than one note at once, creating a harmonic sound. To play a chord, you use your left hand to hold down strings at different frets simultaneously. Learning to play chords is easy; you will be supplied with the string number, fret number, and the specific finger required to recreate each sound. Major chords are formed by three or notes played simultaneously, with the distance between the first and second notes being two whole steps apart. Major chords are associated with cheery or happy music.  To play a C Major chord, place your ring finger on the 1st string on the third fret.     To play an F Major chord, put your index finger on the 2nd string of the first fret, and your ring finger on the first string of the second fret. To play a G Major chord, place your index finger on the 3rd string of the second fret, your middle finger on the 4th string of the second fret, and your ring finger on the 2nd string of the third fret. To play an A Major chord, put your index finger on the 3rd string of the first fret, and your middle finger on the 1st string of the second fret. To play a D Major chord, place your middle finger on the 1st string of the second fret, your ring finger on the 2nd string of the second fret, and your pinky finger on the 3rd string of the second fret. To play an E Major chord, put your index finger on the 4th string of the first fret, your middle finger on the 1st string of the second fret, and your pinky finger on the 3rd string of the fourth fret. Minor chords are three or more concurrently played notes, with the distance from the first and second notes being three half-steps. Minor chords are considered sad or gloomy sounding compared to major chords.  To play an A Minor chord, place your middle finger on the 1st string of the second fret. To play an E Minor chord, put your index finger on the 4th string of the second fret, and your ring finger on the 3rd string of the fourth fret. To play a D Minor chord, place your index finger on the 2nd string of the first...

Christmas trees come in all shapes and sizes, but a smaller one might look more proportionate in a bedroom. You might also want to get a fake tree as opposed to a real one. They are less likely to shed leaves and do not need to be watered.  Add a small  craft tree if you have some desk or shelf space. Art and crafts stores often sell mini versions of Christmas trees, ranging between 8 and 12 inches (20.32 and 30.48 centimeters). You will also find mini lights and ornaments in the same area. Get a 2 to 4 foot (0.61 to 1.22 meters) tall tree if you have a larger room or not a lot of furniture. You can stand the tree on a small table, a stool, or even a crate to give it extra height. Get a "pencil" tree if you have a small room or a lot of furniture. Pencil trees can range from 3 to 9 feet (0.92 to 2.74 meters) tall, but they can be as narrow as 8 or 20 inches (20.32 or 50.8 centimeters). They don't take up a lot of space width-wise and are perfect for corners. If you yearn for that pine-scent, consider hiding a few real pine branches in your tree. You can also use a pine-scented spray as well. If you don't have much floor space, you can hang pine branches from the ceiling in the corner of your room. You can also dress up these branches with mini battery-operated Christmas lights, tinsel, and ornaments. It might be a good idea to use plastic ornaments instead of glass ones, however. Make sure to thoroughly rinse the branches so you don't bring home any insects. You can even decorate the garland with mini battery-operated Christmas lights, tinsel, and ornaments. Great places to hang such garlands include above your bed, over your window, around your ceiling, and draped over your bookshelves. Find some ornaments, lights, beaded garlands, and tinsel. Drape these around your tree, pine branches, or pine garland. If you are hanging your branches or garlands, consider using plastic ornaments instead of glass ones.  Mini Christmas ornaments might look better on pine garlands. You can find them in art and crafts stores,...
