You should change products from time to time, as your body changes. If the product you once liked does not seem to be as effective, this is often a sign you need to change to something else. This can occur as your skin ages and its needs are different. Choices include lotion or cream.

TL;DR in Russian:

You should check for the signs of a broken leg before administering any first aid. This can help you figure if your cat needs to see your vet or if there may be another issue. Signs your kitten may have a broken leg include:  Reluctance to put weight on the leg Limping Swelling Pain or tenderness Limb deformity or unusual bends in the leg Rapid breathing Broken skin and/ or a visible bone  Not eating or grooming Crying, howling, moaning, or growling No matter how sweet your kitten is, it may bite or scratch you because of the injury. Take great care when examining your kitten’s leg to minimize the risk of biting or scratching.  Maintain a safe distance between the kitten’s mouth and your face. Avoid attempting to hug it. Examine the leg slowly, carefully, and as gently as possible. Reassure your kitten in a soft voice. Stop looking for signs if your kitten becomes agitated. Once you’ve checked your kitten’s leg, call your vet’s office. Explain to the office staff that your kitten may have a broken leg to get an appointment as soon as possible. If your vet isn’t available, take your kitten to an emergency clinic to ensure it gets prompt care. Calling ahead can also alert the vet that you are coming so they can prepare to treat your kitten as quickly as possible. Give as much information as possible about your kitten’s symptoms. Ask any questions you have, such as what type of first aid to provide and the best way to transport kitten to the office. Before you take your kitten to the vet, stabilize its leg with a splint or bandage. This can reduce the risk of further injury or pain. Only stabilize the leg if your kitten allows it.  Place a towel or blanket gently over your kitten’s head to prevent it from biting. Make a splint with items such as the cardboard center of paper towel or toilet rolls, rolled up newspaper, or towels. Put the splint next to the broken area. Use a bandage, pantyhose, or surgical tape to keep the splint in place. Add padding around the splint to reduce your kitten’s discomfort. Avoid...

TL;DR in Russian:

Запомните признаки, по которым можно определить перелом лапы. Аккуратно осмотрите котенка. Свяжитесь со своим ветеринаром или с клиникой, где животному могут оказать первую помощь. Зафиксируйте сломанную лапу. Отвезите котенка к ветеринару.


You should choose a container that is clear and transparent. This will allow sunlight to reach the algae. Glass and clear plastic containers are good choices. If you are growing algae for a science fair project, you could use something the size of a plastic water bottle, or something larger like a small aquarium. Your growth medium will be composed primarily of sterilized water. Put the water in your clear container.  If you are growing microalgae, you should use sterilized salt water. If you want to grow spirulina, use clean fresh water. You can use water from any source, such as tap or spring water, as long as it has been filtered with activated carbon or a ceramic filter.  If you are worried about bacteria, boiling the water before using it will reduce contaminants. In nature, algae cohabitate with and other aquatic life. These creatures keep the underwater ecosystem balanced and provide plenty of nutrients such as nitrates, phosphates, and silicates to the algae. Your bottle of water will be lacking those nutrients, and micronutrients like trace metals and vitamins unless you add them. You can buy a nutrient solution over the counter, or take some water from a fish tank or pond to supply nutrients.  Using water from a pond or fish tank could introduce other contaminants into the growth medium. You can also mix nutrient solutions. The Walne medium is a nutrient mixture that is suitable for most algae. Measuring the effect of different nutrient solutions could be one way to study algae in a science fair project. Before you add the algae, you want to know that you have a proper environment picked out. Look for a windowsill or somewhere outside in the sun that you can safely place your algae container. This will allow the sun to provide the energy needed for the algae to reproduce and thrive in your growing medium. If you have difficulty finding such a location, you can use grow lamps instead.  Research your algae to determine what type of grow light is best for growing. Normal grow lights designed for plants...

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите прозрачную емкость, чтобы свет попадал на водоросли. Наполните емкость водой. Добавьте в воду питательные вещества. Найдите солнечное место.


You should choose the gentlest cycle your washing machine has. It might be marked with a label like “delicates” or “lingerie.” Set your washing machine to the coldest water setting it has. Add the soap to the washing machine. Make sure you pour it on the bottom of the machine. This way all of the soap will be covered with water and  easily create bubbles. Use about a quarter of the amount of liquid soap you would for a regular load of laundry. The detergent should be mild, but not include bleach. Turn the washer on and watch the water level fill up. Once it’s about ¾ of the way full, put the shoes in. Then let the washing machine do the rest! If you put your Toms in the dryer, the fabric can shrink and rip. Instead, take your shoes out of the washing machine and let them air dry overnight. If you take your Toms out of the washer and they are still stained, spot clean them. Mix together cold water and 2 squirts of a mild dish soap. Dip a soft-bristle brush into the mixture and scrub the stain. Then put your Toms back in the washing machine.

TL;DR in Russian:

Установите на стиральной машине режим деликатной стирки в холодной воде. Используйте 1/4 от обычного количества мягкого моющего средства. Подождите, пока барабан заполнится на 3/4 водой. Дайте обуви высохнуть. Обработайте стойкие пятна отдельно.


You should clean the drains in your house at least once every month, but if you've already had problems with drain flies, you may want to increase this to once every one or two weeks.  A thorough cleaning is not necessary. Simply pour 4 oz (125 ml) of gel drain cleaner into the drain and let sit to maintain a continual state of cleanliness. For drains that are rarely used, such as in a garage or basement, pour a little mineral oil down the drain. This will prevent further infestations until water is run down the drain. Spray an aerosol IGR directly inside the drain and along the drain lines. IGR prevents drain flies from breaking out of the larvae stage. Since flies only breed once they enter the adult stage, this greatly reduces the number of flies breeding, thereby cutting down on future infestations.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поддерживайте чистоту водостока. Примените средство для контроля роста насекомых.


You should clean your storage case for your contact lenses each day before placing them back in the case. Use a sterile solution or hot water to clean the case and allow it to air dry before replacing your contacts.  Let the case air dry upside down with the lids off.  You may find it easier to clean the case when after you put your contact lenses in your eyes since this will provide plenty of time for it to dry. Replace your case for your contact lenses every three months. Before you even remove your contact lenses, you may find it helpful to fill the case halfway with new, clean solution. This will make it easier to transfer the lenses directly into the solution rather than trying to fill the case with a lens still in the palm of your hand.  Never reuse old solution.  Make sure you use sterile solution and not saline solution. While saline will keep lenses hydrated, you can’t properly disinfect them without the right solution. Always use your eye-care professional’s suggested solution for your type of contact lenses. With the lens in the palm of your clean hand, wet the lens using the correct solution for your type of contact lenses (as suggested by your eye-care professional). Then softly use the pad of your finger to rub the solution thoroughly along the lens. This helps remove any buildup or microbes on the lens more than simply soaking it in the solution alone.  To avoid damaging or scratching the lens with your fingernail, start at the middle and rub to the outer edge, using gentle pressure.  Remember to get both sides. You should thoroughly clean your contact lenses daily to reduce the risk of eye infections or other contact-related complications. Rubbing the lens can help breakdown any buildup, but you should use a little more disinfecting solution afterward to help wash it away. Then you can gently place the clean lens into the fresh, clean solution that you already have waiting in the case. Make sure you place it on the side for the corresponding eye. You may need to place more solution in the case...

You should consider how long you want to make your bridge before you even go shopping for supplies. There are multiple different sizes of popsicle stick that will be available at your local grocery or craft store. You may want to:  Lay out a yardstick on your work space. Note the approximate length of your bridge. Lay your yardstick crosswise to note the width of your bridge. Estimate the amount of popsicle sticks based on these dimensions, and the size of popsicle stick you decide on using. Your popsicle bridge building supplies can be purchased at a local grocery store, general retailer, or craft store. The kind of popsicle stick you decide on using will depend on the vision you have for your bridge, but be sure you purchase a goodly amount so you don't run out mid-building. Including your sticks, you'll also need:  Popsicle sticks Hot glue gun (and glue) Large piece of cardboard or construction paper Paper (for designing) Pencil Scissors or shears (for cutting popsicle sticks) Yardstick or ruler There are several different kinds of bridge you can decide between, including suspension bridges, draw bridges, and truss bridges. Since a truss bridge uses triangles in its frame to support and strengthen its structural integrity, it is ideal for a popsicle stick bridge. For the purposes of providing a guided example, the following model bridge will be built following the classic Warren truss bridge structure.

You should continue to check your blood sugar before and after working out, even when you've been exercising for a while. If you being noticing that your blood sugar drops a lot during workouts, you should consult your doctor for the best action to take. Exercise can lead to a sharp drop in blood sugar, or hypoglycemia. This can lead to fainting or a diabetic coma. If you experience any of these symptoms, stop working out immediately and test your blood sugar.  Dizziness and confusion. Shakiness and muscle weakness. Extreme hunger. A headache. Irritability. A pounding heartbeat. Pale skin. If you feel hypoglycemic, test your blood sugar. If it is too low, take a rest and eat this emergency snack. It will help bring your blood sugar back up and prevent further complications. There are a number of sources of carbohydrates that you could use to treat hypoglycemia.  A few pieces of hard candy (not sugar-free). 1/2 cup of a soft drink. 1/2 cup fruit juice. 1 cup skim milk. Glucose tablets designed to treat hypoglycemia. This will let any emergency personnel know that you are diabetic. This is important because if you experience hypoglycemia, you could faint. If first responders know that you are diabetic, they can treat you more effectively. Consider wearing this sort of identification while working out just in case of emergencies. Staying hydrated is an essential part of exercising safely. Be sure to replace all of the water you're sweating out while exercising. Be on the lookout for the following symptoms of dehydration.  Dizziness or confusion. Dry mouth and swollen tongue. Fatigue. Decreased or ceased sweating. These minor injuries can be very slow to heal if you have diabetes and could get infected if left untreated. Be sure to inspect your body for any injuries after every workout. Focus especially on your hands and feet, since these will be stressed the most during your workout. If you find one, see your doctor as soon as possible so he can properly clean and wrap the wound. With or without diabetes, rest...

TL;DR in Russian:

Следите за уровнем сахара в крови. Остерегайтесь появления симптомов гипогликемии. Во время тренировок имейте при себе источник углеводов. Носите браслет с медицинской информацией. Пейте много воды. После тренировок осматривайте себя на предмет появления мозолей и потертостей. Обеспечьте себе достаточное количество отдыха.


You should continue to wash your tattoo 2-3 times a day with antibacterial soap and lukewarm water until it's fully healed. This can take anywhere from 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the size and location of the tattoo.  While moisturizing is important, be careful not to smother the tattoo in lotion or ointment—a thin layer is all you need. Continue using an unscented mild soap when washing. As it heals, your tattoo will start to scab over, which is normal. Let the scabs dry out and fall off by themselves, and don't speed up the process by picking or scratching at the scabs. This can cause the scabs to fall off too soon, which can leave holes or light spots on the tattoo.  Dry, scabbing or peeling skin can become very itchy, but scratching at your tattoo may also cause scabs to fall off. Keep using moisturizing ointment to combat itchiness if it is a problem. The harsh rays of the sun may cause your skin to blister and bleach some of the colors from your tattoo. For this reason, it is best to keep your tattoo covered and away from the sun for at least 3 to 4 weeks until the initial healing is complete. Once your tattoo is healed, you'll want to wear sunscreen to prevent the tattoo from fading. Until your tattoo is fully healed, don't swim in a pool or the ocean. Avoid soaking in the bathtub as well. Exposing your tattoo to lots of water can pull the ink out of your skin and do damage to the tattoo's appearance. The water may also be carrying dirt, bacteria, or other chemicals that can infect your tattoo. It will be safe to resume these activities once your tattoo is healed, but for now you should stick to rinsing your tattoo in the sink or shower. Try not to wear tight or restrictive clothing on the area with your new tattoo, especially at first. As your tattoo heals, it will seep plasma and excess ink, which may cause the clothing to stick to the tattoo. The clothing will then be painful to remove and may rip off any freshly formed scabs.  If your clothing does stick to your tattoo, do not pull! First wet the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Ежедневно мойте и увлажняйте область татуировки, пока не исчезнут струпья. Не снимайте струпья с области татуировки и не чешите кожу. Берегите область татуировки от прямых солнечных лучей. Старайтесь не мочить татуировку в воде. Носите чистую свободную одежду, чтобы не раздражать область татуировки. Подождите, пока область татуировки заживет, прежде чем приступать к интенсивным тренировкам.


You should cover the table in a towel in case there is any spillage. Let the puppy lie down on all fours so that it is lying on its belly with its front legs outstretched and its back legs tucked up under it. Put a drop of the formula on the inside of your wrist to make sure that it is lukewarm and not too hot. Hold the puppy’s head firmly in between your index finger and thumb so that your fingers are located at the corners of the puppy's mouth. Tip the head slightly upward so that you can see what you are doing. Hold the end of the tube on the puppy’s tongue and let it taste a drop of the milk. Doing this will help coat the esophagus and get her ready to eat. You will not want to go too slowly or else the pup may gag. Guide the tube over the tongue and down into the back of the throat. You will know you are on the right track when the puppy starts swallowing the tube. If it coughs or gags, remove the tube and try again. Stop feeding the tube downward once the marked part of the tube reaches the pup’s mouth. Check to make sure that the pup is not coughing, crying or gagging. If she is not, secure the tube by placing it between your index and middle fingers. Put a small amount of water in the tube to check if your puppy coughs or gags. If it’s fine, attach the food syringe to the tube. If your puppy coughs, take out the tube and start over since the food could go into the puppy’s lungs. After securing the feeding tube, depress the plunger of the syringe and feed the puppy 1 cc or ml at a time. To know when to let the puppy rest between cc’s, count to 3 seconds in your head while slowly depressing the plunger. After the 3 seconds, check to see if there is any milk coming out of the puppy’s nose. If there is, withdraw the tube as this means that the puppy is choking. After you have checked, depress the syringe for 3 more seconds. Hold the syringe perpendicular to the puppy for the most efficient feeding method. Once all of the milk has been fed to the puppy, slowly remove the tube. To do this, gently pull it...

Положите щенка на стол. Возьмите одной рукой голову щенка. Медленно, но эффективно введите катетер. Проведите трубку глубже. Покормите щенка. Выньте трубку. Помогите щенку опорожниться. Проверьте щенка на вздутие живота. Повторяйте процедуру кормления каждые 2 часа в первые 5 дней.


You should definitely text her to set up plans together, but you can also send her sweet, random things that remind you of her. This will show her that you’re thinking of her even when you’re not together, which is a big hint that you see her as more than just a friend.  Try teasing her lightly in the same way that you would in person, which will encourage her to respond. For example, you can say, “Ugh, we were talking about all these symbols in Hamlet today and I was thinking, if only Susan were here, she’s the biggest Shakespeare nerd I know ;)” Try text her about as much as she texts you, so you don’t come off as desperate. Make sure you both look good in it and write out a casual caption. The fact that you’re posting a picture with her is a huge hint on its own, so a relaxed caption will show you’re not desperate.  For example, caption a picture of you two at a sporting event with “Finally found the one person who knows more about baseball than I do.” If you’re nervous about taking a picture together, make a joke out of it. Say, “My mom wants to know if I’ve talked to anyone at this party besides my brother. Will you be my proof?” You can definitely look back farther than that, but be careful not to like any photos posted more than 6 months ago. These likes are an easy, subtle way of showing her that you’re actively looking at her page and feeling attracted to her. A clever comment can be an even bolder way of showing a girl you’re interested in her. Comment on just 1 or 2 recent photos, and keep your messages short, casual, and cool. You could say, “Not sure why was I not invited to the Super Bowl party? Have you never heard of my world-famous nachos?” Send selfies with silly filters, pictures of cute animals, or funny videos. Make it your mission to become her best friend on Snapchat, and even start a streak, which will give you an excuse to snap each other every day. Watch her stories, and send a quick message every few days or so to comment on what she’s doing.  She can tell when you screenshot or...

TL;DR in Russian:

Пишите ей сообщения просто так. Загрузите фотографию, на которой вы вдвоем. Поставьте лайки к последним 3–5 фотографиям. Оставьте игривый комментарий. Отправляйте игривые и веселые изображения с помощью приложения Snapchat. Используйте функцию «Личные сообщения». Не переусердствуйте, отправляя девушке сообщения или фотографии.


You should do a quick warm up before skating. This will help prevent you from becoming sore while on the ice and, as your body may not be used to the cold. At first, cramps may be more frequent due to the weather. Simply stretch each leg over the barriers at the rink to warm up before skating. At first, you may be inclined to look down at your legs to make sure you're going through the right motions. This will not actually help you skate better and can actually cause accidents. Make sure to keep your head up so you do not collide with anyone on the ice. Always lean forward slightly when skating. Bend your knees and keep your weight forward. Leaning back can cause you to fall backward onto the ice. Ice skating is difficult and takes years of practice. While you may feel overwhelmed at first, practice a few times a week. You'll eventually get the hang of figure skating. It's hard to judge your own technique as you cannot observe yourself. See if you can find professional lessons in your area in your price range. You can look online or look for flyers in your local rink.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разогревайтесь перед тренировкой. Не смотрите вниз. Наклоняйте тело вперед, когда катаетесь. Регулярно тренируйтесь.


You should do this as soon after the interview as possible, from your smartphone on the way out of the building, as soon as you get home, or at least the same evening as the interview. This shows the interviewer that you are both enthusiastic and organized and ensures that they will not forget you as a candidate.  Include your full name, phone number, mailing address and email address on the note. Also, make sure this email doesn’t go to a spam folder by writing “Job interview follow up for (your name)” in the subject line. If you leave it too long before writing your thank you note, you risk looking uninterested in the job while also giving another candidate the opportunity to get there before you. If there was a particular person who helped you to set up the job interview, you should remember to send them a note also. Some people advise writing a thank you note by hand. While some interviewers will appreciate this, it is somewhat outdated and other interviewers may regard it as being unprofessional. As a result, an email or typed note is your safest option in this scenario. These notes will be useful during a second interview to help you recall topics of conversation and any qualifications or personality traits that your interviewer emphasized as being important for this position.  They will help you to tailor your responses should you be called to a second interview, or may give you some indication of where you went wrong if you are not. The notes will also help you to refer to more specific points in your follow-up thank you letter and give an indication that you really took on board everything that the interviewer said. Asking your interviewer to connect on LinkedIn is a completely appropriate move, if executed correctly. You don't want it to look like your motives are purely selfish or that you're over-confident about getting the job. Instead, send a simple message which states exactly who you are and refers to some topic or point that was raised during the interview, before asking if they would like to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Отправьте по электронной почте благодарственное письмо. Сделайте пометки об интервью, пока воспоминание еще свежо. Отправьте заявку на LinkedIn.


You should do this as soon as possible after you’ve dripped oil onto your leather. This can include the oils you find in salads or the type of oil you find in your car. Using your fingers, rub the corn starch into the stain. You should feel the corn starch warm up from the friction caused by rubbing. This should reactivate the oil and make it easier for the corn starch to soak up. After you’ve worked the corn starch into the stain, brush off the excess with your fingers. If you’re working on a large stain, you might need to use a vacuum. Depending on how old the oil stain is, or how much oil there is, you might need to repeat these steps more than once to completely remove the oil. If you’ve repeated this procedure three or four times and still can’t get the oil out, you might need to take your leather to a professional cleaner. Once you’ve removed the oil stain from your leather, wipe it down with a barely damp cloth. This removes any corn starch residue.

TL;DR in Russian:

Насыпьте на пятно кукурузный крахмал. Вотрите кукурузный крахмал в кожу. Соберите крахмал пылесосом или просто стряхните его с кожи. При необходимости повторите весь процесс снова. Вытрите кожу влажной тканью.


You should do this with the mattress still fully inflated.  Even a pinhole can become visible when a mattress is inflated. Do this in an area where you have plenty of light. Do this systematically. First, inspect the top of the mattress, then the sides, than the underside. Make sure you visually inspect the seams of the mattress, as this is a common area for tears. Often, you may feel the escaping air "brush" against your skin.   You can wet your hand with cold water first. Escaping air will increase the evaporation rate from your skin and make it feel colder. Pass your hand slowly along the surface of the mattress. If you move too quickly, you might not pick up on the subtle sensation of escaping air. Move your head along the surface with your ear near the mattress.  Your ear is more sensitive to feeling escaping air. Escaping air will also make a hissing sound. Listening for escaping air is more effective in finding large holes or leaks rather than small ones. Listen especially carefully around the seams of the mattress, as this is the most common area for leaks. You will then be able to locate the leak when you go to patch it.  Some manufacturers will provide instructions on how to patch a leak. Others will ask that you send the mattress to them for repair. Don't attempt to patch your mattress without proper instructions from the manufacturer. Different materials may require different methods. Once you locate one leak, inspect the rest of the mattress. There may be more than one hole or tear contributing to the problem.

TL;DR in Russian:

Тщательно осмотрите надувной матрас. Медленно проведите ладонью руки вдоль поверхности матраса. Надавите рукой на матрас и послушайте протечки. Отметьте утечку с помощью ручки или кусочка липкой ленты.


You should eat three meals per day — one when you wake, another towards the middle of the day, and another in the mid-to-late evening.  Missing a meal or consuming fewer carbs than your body requires could cause your blood sugar to crash. If you miss a meal or cannot eat a meal, grab a snack like popcorn, trail mix, or a banana. Exercise takes a lot of energy, and your blood sugar typically declines after an intense workout.  Consume a source of carbs within three hours of your workout, but not within the hour prior to your planned workout.  After you’re done working out, have a source of protein and carbs (a protein smoothie, for instance) within 20 minutes to prevent low blood sugar. If you have diabetes, check your blood sugar regularly, as directed by your doctor.  You can do this using a blood sugar monitoring device.  If you do not have a blood sugar monitoring device, consult your doctor for a recommendation regarding the most reliable such device available. Follow manufacturer directions to use the blood sugar monitoring device. When you notice signs of low blood sugar, it is important to address it as quickly as possible. You should consume about 15 grams of glucose or simple carbohydrates. Wait 15 minutes, then check your blood sugar again. If you are still hypoglycemic, eat another 15 grams. If your next meal is more than an hour or two away, eat a small snack once your blood sugar has returned to normal. Try the following sources of simple carbohydrates:  4 ounces of juice or soda (not diet) 1 tablespoon sugar, honey, or corn syrup 8 ounces of nonfat or 1% milk Glucose tablets or gel (follow package instructions). If your family and friends know you have diabetes, they will be able to help you spot low blood sugar warning signs.  By catching your low blood sugar levels early, you could avoid more serious complications associated with low blood sugar. Wear a medical ID bracelet that identifies your condition and carry a medical ID card as well. If you are in an emergency situation and unable to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Питайтесь регулярно. Ешьте до и после тренировок. Проверяйте уровень сахара крови. Что делать при гипогликемии? Сообщите родным о своей проблеме.


You should fill it about halfway, if not a little higher. A simple syrup is nothing more than a combination of equal parts granulated sugar and water, heated together until the sugar dissolves. Simple syrups are great for reducing the bitterness of alcohol and extremely sour juices. Pour all three liquids into your shaker and over the ice before securing the cap. The ice in the shaker not only cools the cocktail but also helps to combine the syrup into the alcohol and the juice. Continue shaking using your dominant hand, pointing the lid of the shaker away from you and anyone else, for 15 to 30 seconds. The strainer built into your shaker should suffice, but you can also double-strain your gin sour by pouring the liquid through a separate cocktail strainer, as well.

TL;DR in Russian:

Заполните шейкер льдом. Влейте в шейкер джин, сок лимона и сахарный сироп. Энергично встряхните. Отфильтруйте напиток в коктейльный бокал (мартинку).


You should find a relaxing calming down routine that works for you well before the evening before the first day of school. Everyone’s routine is different and you can try a number of things, which can include listening to soft music, drinking chamomile or peppermint tea, reading a novel, or writing in a journal. You can even try to do these things in the same order, so that your mind and body know when you’re ready for sleep.  It can be hard to just get off the phone with your best friend, finish up that summer assignment, or stop playing your favorite video game, and then to head right to sleep. If you do this without some kind of a transition to sleep time, then your mind will still be racing. Give yourself at least an hour to luxuriate in this routine before bed. Even though you may be addicted to electronics, you have to put them away if you want to be able to fall asleep more easily. You should shut off your television, computer, and cell phone at least an hour before you go to bed, so you don’t feel overstimulated. This can help your mind relax and stop racing and can help you focus on getting ready for bed. You should get in the habit of doing this every night, not just on the night before the first day of school. It will help you have a happier, healthier sleeping schedule. A recent study has shown that at least 1 in 10 teenagers receives and sends text messages in the middle of the night, after they are woken up. You should turn your phone off, and even leave it in a different room, if you want to have the most restful sleep. If you leave your phone by your pillow, then you’ll be less likely to fall asleep because you’ll be anticipating a message from one of your friends. Plus, you’ll be less likely to be woken up while you do fall asleep. Think about it: what can your best friend say to you at 2 a.m. that really can’t wait until the morning? Almost nothing. Another way to make sure you go to bed on the night before the first day of school is to avoid any intense or stressful conversations before...

TL;DR in Russian:

Следуйте успокаивающему и расслабляющему распорядку. Отключите все электронные устройства хотя бы за один час до сна. Не оставляйте телефон рядом с кроватью. Не начинайте серьезные разговоры перед сном. Приглушите свет. Думайте о чем-то скучном.


You should find a space that has plenty of room for the specific pet where your parents are unlikely to stumble upon it. You may want to have a back-up room if your parents need the space unexpectedly. Keep them contained within this space. Options include:  Your bedroom A basement An unused garage The backyard (if it is a caged pet or a cat) If you cannot hide the pet in your own home, you can ask a friend to hold onto the pet for you. Make sure that you still provide food, toys, and bedding for the pet. Promise your friend that you will find the pet a new home if your parents do not eventually let you move the pet into their house. This is a better option for larger animals, such as cats and dogs. Animals can smell bad. If the smell is not taken care of, it will soon spread throughout the house, alerting your parents. Make sure that the pet’s room is constantly cleaned. Use air fresheners to combat the smell. Do not leave lit scented candles in the room as this is a fire risk. It will be important to make sure your parents cannot hear your pet. Dogs bark; cats yowl; hamsters run endlessly on creaking wheels. While you cannot perfectly soundproof a room, you can minimize the noise.  Try hanging cork boards or foam squares on your wall. (You can buy both at a craft store). You can decorate these so that it does not look suspicious. Place a rug under your door to prevent sound from going through the crack. You can also cover up the noise by leaving a stereo or TV on while you're out. Keep it on a medium volume. If it is too loud, your parents may enter the room to turn it off. You won’t be able to ask your parents to buy your pet a bed or to supply you with pet food. Save up some money so you can buy everything your pet needs yourself. Pets generally need food, a water bowl or bottle, toys, and bedding. Some may require a cage.  Dogs will need a bed, blankets, chew toys, treats, dry kibble, dishes for food and water, and a leash.  Cats need a scratching post, toys, food and water bowls, dry food, a litter box,...

You should find out if you're living in an evacuation area. Usually areas close to water will be evacuated during severe storms, so you should find out if you area is one of these. That way, when severe storm warnings come in, you can be prepared to evacuate if necessary.  Find out if there are any evacuation shelters near your home. Mark them on a map so you know where to go if you're forced to leave your home. Also pay attention to the topography around your home. If you live at the bottom of a hill, water will flow down towards your house. This means that your property is flood-prone, and you should take extra precautions if a storm is approaching. Sand bags around your home, for instance, could help reduce the chances of flooding. Locate high-ground in your neighborhood so you have a place to flee in case your home floods. In the event of a severe storm, you could be cut off from food for a few days. If the area loses power, local supermarkets won't be able to open. To prepare, the CDC recommends that you stock your home with at least 3 to 5 days' worth of food and water per person.  Get food that doesn't go bad, like canned items. This way if you lose power your food won't spoil. It is also helpful because you can buy non-perishable items at the beginning of the hurricane season and not worry about having to replace them until at least the next year. Five gallons of water per person should be enough to last 3 to 5 days. In addition to food and water, the CDC checklist recommends several other items you should have in your home. They include, but are not limited to:  Medical supplies like a first aid kit and any prescription medicines you are taking. A battery-operated radio in case you lose power. A flashlight. Extra batteries for all your devices. Extra blankets. Personal care items like soap, toothpaste, and cleaning wipes in case you don't have access to water. A fire extinguisher. It possible that you'll be ordered to evacuate your home, or be forced to leave in the event of sudden flooding. To...

You should generally continue taking Zoloft if the medication has effectively controlled your depression or disorder. However, there are good reasons to discontinue or change your medication under the supervision of a doctor. These reasons include:  If you experience severe or continuous side effects. If your depression or disorder is not under control with Zoloft. This may mean persistent sad, anxious, or empty feelings; irritability; loss of interest in pleasurable activities or hobbies; fatigue; difficulty concentrating; sleep disturbances such as insomnia or excessive sleeping; appetite changes; thoughts of suicide; or physical aches and pains. It is important to note that Zoloft generally takes up to eight weeks to fully work and may require dosage increases.  If you have been on Zoloft for a while (6-12 months) and your doctor feels that you are not at risk for (or do not have) chronic or recurrent depression. Some side effects of the medication can include: nausea, dry mouth, drowsiness, weight loss, insomnia, changes in sex drive, and uncontrollable shaking. Let your doctor know if any of these side effects are severe or do not go away. In addition, ideas of suicide may be present in younger adults and children. Let your doctor know right away if you have thoughts related to suicide. Discuss your side effects or other reasons for wanting to stop taking Zoloft with your doctor. This will help your doctor make an informed decision and decide if the time is right for you to stop taking Zoloft.  If you have been on the medication for less than eight weeks, your doctor will likely suggest you give the medication the full eight weeks to take effect. If you feel like stopping Zoloft because it hasn't been effective, you may want to ask your doctor if increasing your dosage might have positive results. Antidepressants need to be slowly discontinued with gradual decrease in doses to avoid discontinuation symptoms. This is called tapering. Tapering can take weeks to months depending on the antidepressant, how...

You should get routine checkups of your Westie at a vet, which includes assessing the health of his ears. In between vet visits, you can clean your dog’s ears occasionally or if they appear dirty.  Consider asking your vet to show you how to properly clean your Westie’s ears.  Use a cotton ball dampened in mineral oil, hydrogen peroxide, or a specific dog ear cleansing solution.  Do not clean your Westie’s ears too frequently or too deeply. This can irritate the delicate skin.  Never insert anything into your dog’s ear canal.  If your Westie is sprouting hairs from his ears, you might need to tweeze them to prevent tangles or other problems. Make sure to check with your vet if this is necessary. . Trim your Westie’s nails whenever they appear too long. This can help prevent breaking, infection, and keep your dog from developing an irregular gait because his nails are too long.  Never use scissors to trim your dog’s nails. Only use a dog nail clipper that you can purchase at a pet store or your vet’s office.  Go slow and be careful when you trim your dog’s nails. You don’t want to hurt your dog.  When trimming your Westie’s nails, avoid getting too close to the quick, which is the blood vessel inside of the nail. You can avoid the quick by trimming a small sliver of nail at a time and checking the cut surface of the nail after each snip. When you start to see a circle around the cut surface, then you are getting close to the quick and should not trim any more.  Cutting your dog’s nails after a bath will make the quick more visible. You can also apply some baby oil to his nail, which will have the same effect. Give your Westie a treat for a successful nail clipping session.  If your dog is resistant to the nail trimming, don’t force him. Leave him alone and try again later. Keep in mind that you can always take your dog to a professional groomer or to your veterinarian for nail trimming. . Periodontal disease is a common problem seen by veterinarians. Keeping your Westie’s teeth and mouth cavity clean with...

You should get your eyes checked at least every other year. The eye doctor can give you a comprehensive checkup that will find any problems that could be damaging your eyes. It is very important to catch conditions like cataracts and macular degeneration early so you can undergo treatment. The doctor can also prescribe corrective lenses and give you advice on certain lifestyle changes that will protect your eyes. Be sure to inform your eye doctor of any health issues you may have, even if they aren't related to your eyes. Problems like high blood pressure and diabetes can affect your vision, and the eye doctor should be aware of your entire health history. Some medications have side effects or drug interactions that can affect your vision. If you notice a sudden change in your vision and take medicine regularly, ask your doctor or pharmacist about the drugs you're on. There may be a side effect or interaction that you weren't aware of. If you suffer from chronic eye discomfort or inflammation, there may be prescription options for you. For problems like chronic dry eyes, prescriptions like Restasis can help stimulate tear production. Bring up any problems you've been having when you visit the eye doctor and see if there are prescriptions you can try. LASIK is a medical procedure where a surgeon uses a laser to reshape sections of the cornea. This helps the eye focus better and improves vision. LASIK has a high success rate. It can be very expensive, however, and the results may not be permanent. Talk with your eye doctor to find out if this is a good option for you.

You should harvest the peanuts before the first frost of fall occurs, since peanuts at this stage are still sensitive to frost attacks.  The plant will turn yellow and begin to wilt when it is ready to be harvested.  Gently dig up the entire plant with your gardening fork, lifting it up from beneath the roots. Shake off most of the soil clinging to the roots. A healthy plant will usually yield about 30 to 50 peanuts. Hang the plant indoors in a dry location for about a month.  For the first one to two weeks, let the peanuts cure on the plant as they are in a warm, dry spot. For the remaining two weeks or so, pull the nuts off and let them dry in the same warm, dry spot. You can enjoy the peanuts raw or roasted, or you can save them for later.  To roast peanuts, bake them in an oven set at 350 degrees Fahrenheit (177 degrees Celsius) for 20 minutes. To store peanuts, leave them in their shells and place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator up to  6 months. If you cannot refrigerate your peanuts, they can stay good for 3 months in a dry, dark storage area. Peanuts can also be frozen for a year or longer.

You should have 500g of lean beef, 300g of lean pork, and 200g of pork back fat. Grind the lean meat coarsely and cube the pork back fat. The first four ingredients are 1 tbsp. refined salt, 1/2 tsp. curing salt, 1 tsp. phosphate dissolved in 1/4 cup water, and 1/4 tsp. vitamin C powder. Mix the meat with these four ingredients until it is tacky. Now add the remaining ingredients and mix them into the meat until they've been blended evenly. If you put it in the refrigerator instead, then it will take 1-2 days. The casings should each be about 4 inches (10.2 cm) long. Link the meat clockwise and counterclockwise. You can dry the meat in an oven or in turbo with a temperature of 115°F (46°C) for 20 minutes. Alternatively, you can leave it under the sun for 4 hours. You can pack the meat into polyethylene bags or put the sausages in brown bottles and pour boiling animal fat over them. You can store the meat at room temperature for 4 months, or 6-9 months inside a freezer.

You should have at least two columns of numbers that will be representing your Input Y Range and your Input X Range. Input Y represents the dependent variable while Input X is your independent variable. If your version of Excel displays the ribbon, go to Data, find the Analysis section, hit Data Analysis, and choose Regression from the list of tools. If your version of Excel displays the traditional toolbar, go to Tools > Data Analysis and choose Regression from the list of tools. In the Regression Analysis box, click inside the Input Y Range box. Then, click and drag your cursor in the Input Y Range field to select all the numbers you want to analyze. You will see a formula that has been entered into the Input Y Range spot.  Choose whether or not to display labels, residuals, residual plots, etc. by checking the desired boxes. You can either select a particular output range or send the data to a new workbook or worksheet. The summary of your regression output will appear where designated.

TL;DR in Russian:

You should have no more than three options for shots any time you get up to the box to take a penalty kick in soccer. Don't make it more difficult on yourself than it needs to be. Practice taking three differently placed penalty kicks, and call that your repertoire of shots. Perfect each one of them, so you know you'll be able to score in any of the three places when the time comes and you make that decision. Wherever your most comfortable, highest-probability shots are, practice them and don't worry about any other choices.  Most goalies will dive left or right at random, making it very difficult to anticipate where the goalie will be when you shoot. Since it happens so quickly, you're playing a game of chance, always. If the goalie is familiar with your style of play, however, it's good to have a few go-to options in your bag at all times. Again, more shots are missed than saved, so it's mostly up to you. Most saves happen in the bottom right corner of the goal. Some goalies guess that right-footed kickers will try to outsmart them by going to the non-natural corner. It's best to go easy and uncomplicated the process. Shoot to the corner that feels best. Anyone can blast a ball into the back of the net a couple times, but what about when you've been going hard on the field for half an hour, fighting for balls, taking corner kicks. Your legs will be tired, you'll be sweaty and exhausted and all of a sudden all the eyes will be on you. Your legs might feel like lead, but you've got to come through with a brilliant goal that'll put your team ahead. Train the right way. Take penalty kicks when you're tired and learn to slow down and calm yourself, focusing on the mechanics and the motions to help yourself score. For some players, a two-step approach will be plenty to get the power they're looking for. Others might need a different amount of steps, or may want to play around with psyching out the goalkeeper with different approaches and fancy footwork. That's fine. Practice approaching your kicks from different...

TL;DR in Russian:

You should have prepared 60 circular or square-shaped (4.5-inch) dumpling, wonton, or gyoza wrappers. You can scale the recipe down or up, as long as you use one tablespoon of filling for each wrapper. Use the filling of your choice -- either the tofu filling, the meat and cabbage filling, or another filling of your choice. As you get more experienced, you can add a bit more filling to the dumplings. To do this, just dip your finger in a small bowl of cool water and run it around the edge of each dumpling wrapper before you seal it closed. There are a variety of ways to seal the dumplings, depending on your level of expertise. For the basic seal, just fold the dumpling into a half-moon shape and press it closed. Here are some other ways to seal the dumplings:  The double pleat: fold the dumpling in half and press the top closed. Then, use your thumb and index finger to fold a pleat into one side of the dumpling, and then fold an inverse pleat on the other side, pressing it firmly to seal it. The multiple pleat: to do this, fold the dumpling in half, but don't press it closed. Instead, use your thumb and index finger to fold pleats into the side of the wrapper that's facing you. After each pleat, pinch it closed against the back half of the wrapper. This way, you'll be "zipping" the dumpling closed. The gathered pouch: just gather the sides of the dumpling around the filling and then pleat the top closed like a pouch. Then, pinch the opening to the seal. If you want to freeze the dumplings, then you should place them on a baking sheet without letting them touch and then place them in sealed freezer containers once they're frozen solid. They'll last in the freezer for at least three months. Read on to find out how to cook the dumplings.

You should have safety goggles and protective footwear on. The footwear should also have a rubberized sole to minimize the risk of slipping on wet surfaces. You may want to wear long pants and a long-sleeved shirt to protect your limbs from flying dirt and debris.  Fill a gas power washer with engine oil and gasoline. Hold the start grip and pull to start the engine. Plug an electric power washer into a properly grounded outlet. Turn on the water supply before turning on the pressure washer to avoid damaging the pump.  Certain tips may be required when using detergent. Make sure you read the manufacturer's instructions carefully.

You should have some idea that you want to present in your thesis statement, which is typically two to three sentences long and articulates your overall argument.  Don't worry about getting your thesis just right at this point - that comes later. If you don't feel ready to write the thesis out, jot down some notes in the introductory part of your outline. At the very least, you need some idea of what you want to say in your essay. While it may seem odd to summarize your essay before you've begun, writing your thesis at the beginning of your outline will help you organize your ideas and select the most important details that you want to present. The body of your essay is the part between the introductory paragraph and the conclusion paragraph. Select main details from your research that demonstrate your overall thesis (from Step 1).  The number of details you use depends on the paper length: if you're writing a five-paragraph essay, then you have three paragraphs for the body, so you'll need three main ideas. Make sure you choose the most important details, and that they are all distinct from one another. Details used to support your thesis are also called "evidence." Now that you've identified the major point for each paragraph, jot down smaller, supporting details that help your reader understand the paragraph's main idea. These might include examples, facts, quotations or further explanation. Make sure you have enough supporting details for each paragraph. If you don't have enough to say about the paragraph's main topic, consider changing the topic or combining it with another paragraph. Alternatively, you can research a bit more to find additional supporting details for the paragraph. The conclusion summarizes what you've already said, and brings some new level of nuance or sophistication to your original thesis. Think of it as your final opportunity to make sure your reader understands what you've written.

TL;DR in Russian:

You should have your mole examined by a doctor or dermatologist before you get it removed. They will be able to tell you whether your mole is malignant. They will also discuss what mole removal method is best for you.  The vast majority of moles are benign. However, symptoms including itchiness, bleeding and changes in size or color may indicate that the mole is malignant.  If a mole is malignant, it should be removed as soon as possible. If your mole is not dangerous, it may not be necessary to have it removed. However, many people prefer to have their moles removed for aesthetic reasons. Your doctor will use the ABCDE guide to assess your mole. This stands for Asymmetry, Border, Color, Diameter, and Evolving. There are several methods of removing moles and you should carefully consider which method is best for you. You will need to think about:   Effectiveness. Consider how effective each treatment is supposed to be. Will your chosen procedure remove the mole completely? Is there a risk that it could grow back?  Cost. Different procedures will vary in terms of price, so think about what you can afford.  Risk. What are the risks associated with each procedure? Can the mole become infected? Is there a risk of scarring or nerve damage? Will you need to be put under anesthetic? This type of removal works best for surface level moles. The mole is shaved off with a scalpel.  First, the surgeon will cut the mole away, so it no longer forms a bump on the skin. With this type of removal, stitches are unnecessary. The wound will be cauterized or covered in a cream or solution to stop the bleeding. Then a topical antibiotic will be applied. The wound will be bandaged up and you'll be free to leave the office in a matter of minutes. This type of removal works best for moles that are darker in color or flat moles that penetrate deep within the skin.  First, the mole and surrounding skin will be sterilized and numbed. Then, the surgeon uses a scalpel to cut out the mole. How deep of an incision needs to be made will...

You should hear a loud sizzle immediately. If you don’t, your pan or grill is not hot enough. Feel the steak’s surface as you lift it. It should be very soft with plenty of give to it when it’s raw. A medium rare steak should only be flipped once. Cook a 2-inch cut for four minutes on each side. Avoid using a fork, since it will puncture the meat, letting the juices escape.  Use the tongs to judge how soft the steak has become. A medium rare steak should be bouncy. A medium to well done steak will be firmer. Cover it with aluminum foil to rest for half the time you cooked it. It will reabsorb the juices. Don’t wait more than 10 minutes before serving. The steak continues to cook for a few minutes while it rests, so wait patiently for the steak to come to the right internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit (57 degrees Celsius). Use a steak knife to cut across the grain. Once cut, the center should be reddish pink, with lighter shades of pink radiating toward the golden brown crust.

You should italicize the titles of long creative works in your paper. These include books, long poems, plays, television shows and films, artworks, or musical compositions. If you are writing in Chicago or MLA style, you should also italicize these titles on your works cited page or bibliography and use title case (i.e., Capitalizing Each Major Word in a Title). In APA style, italicize but do not use title case. Italicize:   Book titles: I just can't stop reading Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein.  Anthology and collection titles: I need the Norton Anthology of English Literature for a class I am taking next fall.  Long poems: The Bhagavad Gita is a long Hindu poem written in Sanskrit.  Plays: Sophocles is one of the most famous ancient Greek playwrights. He wrote plays such as Antigone and Oedipus the King.   Movie and television show titles: We watched Halloween last night, and it terrified us! Fortunately we followed it up with Brooklyn Nine-Nine to lighten the mood.  Album titles: In Utero is my favorite Nirvana album.  Long musical works: Mozart’s Don Giovanni is one of my favorite operas. I also really enjoy Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata for piano.  Works of art: Mexican artist Frida Kahlo painted many self-portraits, including the famous Self-Portrait with Thorn Necklace and Hummingbird.  An exception to italics exists for citing titles that incorporate other titles. For example, if you wanted to cite the (made-up) book titled Shakespeare’s King Lear and the Pagan Tradition, you would need to de-italicize the title of the play because it is present in another book’s title. You should italicize the titles of newspapers, journals, magazines, and radio series. News programs with a specific name should also be italicized. As with the literary examples, italicize these titles on your works cited page or bibliography in Chicago or MLA style and use title case. Italicize without title case for APA style. Italicize:   Newspapers: My mom subscribes to the New York Times.   Journals and magazines: I read articles from...

You should jog because you enjoy it. If you don't enjoy it, you'll find it's almost impossible to keep motivated. Jogging is actually only one of a number of basic exercises. There are others which can be more efficient or are easier to fit into your day. If you're jogging mainly to lose weight, recognize that a combination of diet and simply being more active during the day (take the stairs, not the elevator) can be enough for many people. Don't give yourself an excuse not to exercise. Remove as many possible excuses are you can by keeping your chosen routine convenient. Choose a route close to home which isn't weather dependent. Find a good time in your day to fit it in...one that isn't subject to constant change. Taking someone with you can help keep you motivated, by making you responsible to someone else. This can be a close friend or a family member. You can even take your dog, if you have one. This has the added benefit of keeping you safe while you run. You can also join a local runner's group. Many neighborhoods will do a jogging group. Check with yours! Stay regular in your schedule. Exercise on the same days each week and at the same times on those days. It helps if the rest of your life is also carefully scheduled. Scheduling helps you build a rhythm and habit, and humans really are creatures of habit. Avoid giving yourself incentives like extra sweets or new material objects. These work poorly to motivate you and can work against your goals. Instead, make jogging fun by turning it into a game. Did you know that there are apps for your phone that turn exercising into a video game? Apps like "Zombies, run!" are a great way to make your workout fun and something to look forward to. Setting goals will give you something to work toward. A tangible end-point will help you feel like you're making progress. What this endpoint is is up to you, however. You can say that you want to lose a certain amount of weight. You can decide to jog a certain distance. You can make it a goal to be fit enough to run a...

You should keep your guinea pigs separate from one another in a different room for the first two to three weeks. You will need to have the new guinea checked out by a vet during this time to ensure they are healthy. Do not let them have physical contact until this time period is up.  Placing the new guinea pig directly in the cage with a new one can cause undue stress as they must be eased into a new environment, and their presence may cause the current pig to become territorial. In addition to the emotional concerns, many guinea pig illnesses, which are easily spread at pet and department stores, can incubate for long periods. You need to make sure your new guinea shows no signs of sickness before introducing them to your old guinea.  Put the guinea pigs in separate cages next to each other. Position the cages in such a way that the guinea pigs cannot see each other but can smell and hear one another. Once the two to three week quarantine period has passed, it's time to introduce the guinea pigs. However, do not place the new guinea pig in the cage right away as it's best to introduce them on neutral ground so neither guinea pig feels their territory is being threatened.  Find a new territory where neither guinea pig has been before, but that is a secluded and quiet place where both guinea pigs will feel safe. On the floor of a closed-off and small room, such as a bathroom, is a good option.  Put veggies, treats, and hay in the center of the area to distract the guinea pigs from fighting as they get accustomed to one another's presence.   In case the guinea pigs get physically aggressive, you should have old towels on hand. You can use towels to restrain the guinea pigs while avoiding getting scratched yourself.  If it goes well, and the guinea pigs have not fought for over two hours, you will be able to introduce them to the same cage. Ensure that the cage has been thoroughly cleaned, and all the toys re-arranged to make it seem like a new cage. After the guinea pigs have been introduced, there are steps...

You should know how tags work and of the src and href attributes. You will find that there are very many properties. However, it is not necessary to learn them all. Some good basic CSS properties to know are color and font-family. All properties need a value. For the color property, for example, you might put the red value. It is used within an element like href or src. To use it, within the quotation marks after the equal sign, put the CSS attribute, a colon, and then the value of the property. This is known as a CSS rule. Inline CSS can add unnecessary clutter to an HTML document. However, it is a great way to get introduced to how CSS works.

You should leave the last few tablespoons (several ml) of coffee in the bottom of the kettle when you make cowboy coffee.

For traditional cowboy coffee, the grounds don’t get strained from the coffee.

You should listen to anyone that is speaking, but try to pay special attention to what your girlfriend is saying. Truly listening is not as common as it should be, so your girlfriend will appreciate having someone to rely on to listen to her. You don’t have always have to answer to what she is saying. Having someone to vent to is special. Look her into her eyes when she is speaking. If she is venting or working something out aloud, let her talk. You can show that you are listening by nodding occasionally and making small comments like “I understand.” Of course, you should respond when she asks something. Respond to her when you are having a conversation, but also respond to her when you talk through messages throughout the day. Acknowledge when she is speaking to you, even if it is a small question or comment that warrants a response. Respond to her carefully and with thought if it is a serious conversation. You should also try your best to respond to her when she texts, messages, or calls you. Don’t go out of your way to respond if the time is not appropriate, like when you are in class or at work. Respond to her when you can. She should understand that you are not always immediately available. You don’t have to be constantly connected with each other, but sending her a few texts and/or messages throughout the day goes a long way. It will mean a lot to her to know that you cross her mind even when you are apart. Text her when you see something that makes you think of her, or even just to say hello. You can also send her random text messages reminding her how you beautiful you think she is and that you love her. Calling is less common these days because texting and messaging through social media is easier and faster. Taking the time to call her will show that you value conversation with her, not just brief snippets of conversation through text. You can call her when you have a few minutes to spare throughout the day, or you can call her at night to have a longer conversation when you are not together.  It is...

Внимательно слушайте девушку. Отвечайте девушке. Пишите сообщения в течение дня. Звоните девушке. Вежливо разговаривайте с девушкой. Говорите о своей любви.


You should look for warning signs of a bad friend so you do not end up with friends who are negative and harmful. Avoid friends who belittle you by talking down to you or by putting you down with negative comments. These actions can be harmful to your self-esteem and your self-worth, leading to friendships that can be toxic and unhelpful.  A negative friend may tell you that you're “worthless”, “stupid”, or “dumb”. They may also tell you that you're wrong and that you don't know what you're talking about. They may put you down in front of others to make themselves look better and focus on the things you're bad at to make you feel diminished. Hanging out with negative friends may leave you feeling low, depressed, and worthless. You should also stay away from friends who are only takers and do not give you any encouragement or support. Friends who use you are only interested in their own personal gains and wins. They may show no interest in your own needs and fail to show up when you need them. For example, if you get a role in a film, a bad friend may suddenly start paying more attention to you and ask for autographs, which they later sell for gain. You should also try to rid yourself of friends who are always harping on about the negative aspects of a situation, as this can end up draining you of your energy. You may have friends who only view things from a negative point of view and refuse to focus on the positive aspects. This may then lead you to also adopt a negative point of view and put in you in a permanent state of negativity.  If your friend is being negative, give them support and try to cheer them up; they may just be having a hard time. If this doesn't work and takes a toll on your mental health, seek new friends. Avoiding negative friends will allow you to spend time on your own development and not use all your energy on someone else’s issues.

TL;DR in Russian:

Ограничьте общение с друзьями, которые критикуют или унижают вас. Избегайте общения с людьми, которые пользуются вами в своих интересах. Старайтесь избегать общения с людьми с негативным типом мышления.


You should melt the butter and chocolate in a pot over the stove. Use a heavy sauce pan and melt the butter and chocolate over medium-high heat. Watch the pot closely to make sure nothing burns.  It's a good idea to remove the butter while it's still somewhat solid. Butter can burn easily. If the chocolate is melted and there is still a small chunk of butter that is solid, remove the pan from the heat. Mix everything together until the butter melts as well. After melting, allow your butter and chocolate mixture to cool off until it reaches room temperature. This should take about 15 minutes. Once the butter and chocolate mixture is cool, add your sugar. Use a mixing spoon to stir in the sugar. Keep stirring until you have an even mixture. Start with the eggs, adding them one at a time. Use a wire whisk to gently whisk each egg into the batter until the mixture is smooth and even. Once the eggs are added, whisk in the vanilla. To fold in the ingredients, add the flour and salt to the top of the butter mixture. From there, use a rubber spatula. Starting at the back of the bowl, cut a vertical line through the ingredients across the bottom of the bowl. Rotate the bowl a quarter of a circle and cut another vertical line using your spatula. Continue this pattern. Eventually, the ingredients should all mix together evenly.

TL;DR in Russian:

Растопите сливочное масло и шоколад. Добавьте сахар. Вбейте в шоколадную смесь яйца и добавьте ванильный экстракт. Добавьте муку и соль.


You should never apply a cleaner before testing it. Some couches do not respond well to certain commercial cleaners. Apply your cleaner to a small patch of your couch that is not directly visible, such as a corner on the back of the couch. Wait a few hours and check the area. If you notice any discoloration or other damage, try a different cleaner. Commercial cleaners can often be very strong. Use gloves when handling the cleaners. Clean in a well ventilated area. Open the windows, for example, when cleaning a couch in your living room. A little cleaner goes a long and less cleaner will be less taxing on your couch. Only spritz on a light layer of cleaner. If stains do not come off the first time, you can always repeat the process. If you have a couch marked "X," it can be difficult to maintain. Calling in professional cleaners each time the couch gets dirty can be pricey. In the future, check the manufacturer's label before purchasing a couch and avoid buying couches with the "X" label.

TL;DR in Russian:

Проверяйте чистящие средства перед использованием. Соблюдайте меры предосторожности. Используйте моющее средство экономно. Впредь постарайтесь проверять этикетки на диване перед покупкой.


You should never initiate a confrontational interaction without first preparing yourself. This should entail assessing whether or not the issue is worth confronting someone about, planning what you'd like to say, and calming yourself so that you are not angry or overly emotional.  Avoid unnecessary altercations. If someone has said or done something that mildly annoyed you but did not deeply offend you, violate school/workplace codes of conduct, or present any kind of threat, you may want to consider letting it slide and addressing the behavior if it comes up again in the future.  Evaluate whether your initiating the confrontation could damage workplace relations or ruin a friendship. This may require some abstract thinking on your part to imagine the potential outcomes and future implications of such a confrontation. Construct one or two calm, non-emotional sentences in your head that you could use to convey your problem, if you decide to confront the other person. Use factual evidence to support your position, and don't let anger, resentment, or frustration color what you say or how you say it. Practice what you might say in your head before you actually sit down with the other person so you know how to best express your concern. Your top priority should be to ensure everyone's safety, but there are other secondary considerations to make as well. For example, you should never confront someone about inappropriate or problematic behavior in front of other coworkers. You should also generally avoid airing your grievances in a public place, as this can raise everyone's tension, and may cause the problem to escalate.  Think of a quiet, private place where you can have a calm discussion with the other person. Ask that person politely, "May I speak with you in private for a moment?" Then lead him to the quiet place you've chosen, away from other people and distractions. If you're talking to the other person in your office, consider keeping the door slightly ajar so that others can easily enter the room if need be....

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьтесь к этому на ментальном уровне. Выберите подходящую обстановку. Говорите прямо, но будьте учтивы. Определите свой мотив. Установите границы и последствия.


You should never leave a knife in the kitchen sink. It's a safety issue as you could get cut reaching into the dish water. Knives are also susceptible to damage and rust if immersed in water for too long. Place dirty knives beside the kitchen sink. As stated, leaving knives wet can increase their likelihood of rusting. Always dry your knives immediately after cleaning them. Knives do not do well in the dishwasher. The blade can get dinged and damaged during the washing cycle. Dishwasher detergent is also highly acidic and can cause premature rusting. Quality kitchen knives should not be stored in the utensil drawer. They can bump against other silverware, causing scratches and other damage. Invest in a kitchen board to store your knives or keep them in a separate drawer. If you do store your knives in the utensil drawer, cover them in leather sheaths.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не оставляйте ножи в раковине. Сушите ножи сразу после очистки. Не используйте посудомоечную машину для очистки ножей, особенно дорогих. Храните качественные ножи отдельно от других столовых приборов.


You should never let your enemy provoke you into a physical altercation, but some enemies are set in their ways and force your hand. You'll be able to be much more confident in your ability to move through your day-to-day if you know you'll be able to handle any situation that arises. Don't move around in fear. Get prepared. . Fights don't work like in the movies, where both people throw a million hard right-hands right to the face until someone hits a KO. Most fights are over very quickly. Learning to properly form and throw a punch will make sure that you don't make a valuable movie mistake if the situation calls for it, so you'll be able to throw a high-probability punch accurately and end the fight sooner rather than later.  Make a fist by wrapping your fingers into your hand firmly, but not so tight you cut off the circulation. Wrap your thumb around the bottom of your knuckles, not around your index finger and not inside your fingers. Extend the middle knuckle of your middle finger slightly. This is where your fist should make contact, not your big knuckle, where your fingers connect to your hands. Punch in a straight line, keeping your elbows in and throwing linear punches, not big circular haymakers. There's a lot more power in a straight jab than in a big swing. Aim for the nose, the neck, or the stomach. Punching someone in the jaw, cheek, or forehead will end up hurting you more. Aim for soft spots and swing hard. . Keeping a good defensive position is just as important as throwing a solid punch, if not more important. Remember, it's not a Rocky movie: a couple solid punches into your kisser and you're going to be on the ground, which is exactly where you don't want to be.  Hold your fists, loosely formed, up near your face and shift your weight so your shoulder and hip on your dominant side are pointed at your opponent. Don't square up to your opponent, but turn to one side, to make a smaller target. Keep your hands up near your chin and the side of your head at all times, when you're not...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не ищите боя, но научитесь защищать себя, если это необходимо. Научитесь наносить удар. Научитесь играть в обороне. Двигайтесь вперед, а не назад. Продолжайте двигаться. Станьте на ноги. Поищите самый быстрый способ, чтобы убежать.


You should never lie to an employer about your location, but you can demonstrate that you're already preparing to move by acquiring local contact information in advance.  Ask friends in the area if you can use one of their addresses, or purchase a mailbox service with automatic forwarding to your home address. On your resume, include this below your home address with the label "Relocating to ___".  Sign up for a Google Voice number or Skype number with the area code of your target area. Or, use an app like Whatsapp. This will also save you money on long distance phone calls. Obviously, this is a vital step for any job application. Make your resume polished and well-formatted, and follow the exact instructions the company provides. Being a long distance candidate is already one strike against you; don't slip up and create another. Always be honest and upfront about your relocation plans. If applicable, explain that you have a network in the area and let your employer know if you need a relocation package. Employers are interested in candidates that can handle a life change in addition to a new position in a new area. Be forthright with potential employers about your distant location, but include detailed reasons for the move to convince them that you're a serious candidate.  If you've made any steps to begin moving at all, such as acquiring a local phone number, you can use the phrase "I have begun to transition to your area" truthfully.  Mention any ties you have to the area, such as family members or previous work experience in the region. If you're moving to follow your relationship partner, say so. If you aren't planning to move to the area for another three months, a company will likely hire a roughly equivalent candidate who can start immediately. Plan your potential move in advance so you know exactly when you can relocate. If you have family or friends in the area, consider staying with them until you get your own residence to make the transition easier. The "hub cities" for your industry may have a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте о том, чтобы получить местный почтовый адрес или телефон. Используйте лучшие рекомендации по составлению резюме. Сопроводительное письмо нужно начать с объяснения вашего переезда. Предложите наиболее ранний срок, когда вы гарантированно можете приступить к работе. Переезжая в регион с высокой конкуренцией, акцентируйте внимание на своих профессиональных навыках. Переезжая в местность, где конкуренция на рынке труда меньше, сделайте упор на опыт работы. Укажите, что вы готовы покрыть за свой счет дорожные расходы для личного собеседования. Отнеситесь серьезно к дистанционному собеседованию, если личное посещение города невозможно. Обсуждая переезд в место потенциального трудоустройства, приложите максимум собственных усилий. Если не удается найти работу, сэкономьте деньги и сначала займитесь переездом.


You should never seek out someone to fight, or attack someone who is picking on you as a form of intimidation. Fighting is dangerous. Seeking out a fight is always a bad idea.  An aggressor could have a weapon. You never know if someone is carrying a knife or another sharp object, so it's best not to risk it by picking a fight. If you push someone into fighting, they could come back later with friends to target you. You do not want to start a cycle of violence. If you need to fight to defend yourself, do so, but remember this is the only time you should fight. Fighting is only justified when it's the only way for you to escape injury. If you're worried about fighting because someone is targeting you, be proactive. Stay away from areas where you feel fighting may occur. Stay in well lit, open areas where there is a lot of supervision.  It's a good idea to travel in groups, especially if someone is threatening you with aggression. If you're at school, avoid areas where bullies congregate. You may be more likely to get jumped in these areas. If someone is threatening you with physical violence, contact the police. Fighting can have legal consequences for you if you hurt someone, and you can also suffer serious injury. If you are being threatened with violence, report it to the police. The police can help diffuse the situation before violence becomes necessary.  Never be afraid to call the police. They are there to help you. Sometimes, just the act of calling them may be enough to diffuse the situation. Even if the assailant calms down, it might still be a good idea to have an officer near by in case it was just an act and he tries to attack you again. If you've been the target of bullies before, self defense can help. See if you can find a local community center that offers self defense training. You could also try something like karate. A self defense course can teach you safe ways to defend yourself in a fight, and how to avoid injury.  Not every form of self defense will be right for you. Some forms are more...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не вступайте в драку, если только в этом действительно не возникнет необходимости для самообороны. Держитесь подальше от опасных районов, где высока вероятность возникновения драки. В случае необходимости обратитесь в полицию. Запишитесь на курсы по самообороне.


You should not engage with people who treat you in a manner you find personally unacceptable. When coping with fake friends, work on identifying what behaviors you will not tolerate. If your fake friends behave in these ways, disengage with them right away. You can identify unacceptable behaviors by the way they make you feel.  If you continually experience arguments with this person that are not resolved, they may be seriously violating your boundaries. A fake friend may negate how you feel regarding their treatment, and insist you're being hypersensitive. You should also not tolerate any behavior that makes you feel tense, anxious, or uncomfortable. Behaviors that hurt your self-esteem or sense of self-worth are also unacceptable. Fake friends can sometimes cross the line from frenemies or competitive friends to outright bullies. If a relationship has become bullying in nature, it's important you strongly consider ending it. Learn and watch for the signs of bullying in a friendship.  Bullies tend to have very low self-esteem. Therefore, they seek out people to dump their insecurities and frustrations on. If a friend is becoming a bully, he or she will be increasingly critical of you. He or she may also become temperamental and consistently say and do things that hurt your feelings. It can be hard to tell when someone has crossed the line into bullying, but it's important to be vigilant. Bullies can do great damage to self-esteem over time. Pay attention to how someone treats you. If they repetitively violate your boundaries and do not offer an apology, this person is probably bullying you. These kinds of relationships are usually best severed. You want to identify true friends so you can better identify the poor behavioral patterns of fake friends. True friends are genuinely caring and supportive. They can help you identify how you deserve to be treated.  A friend should make you feel consistently happy. Friends should be exciting to be around and should always be kind and respectful of your boundaries....

TL;DR in Russian:

Замечайте неприемлемое поведение. Замечайте признаки травли. Обращайте внимание на отношение к вам настоящих друзей. Признаки патологической зависимости. Предотвращайте эмоциональный шантаж.


You should not leave your power bank charging longer than necessary. Your manufacturer's instructions should let you know roughly how long it will take to charge. Most power banks charge within 1-2 hours. Check the charger periodically as it's plugged in. As soon as all the LED lights are on, unplug the charger. Your power bank’s lights may also blink on and off until it’s fully charged, at which point it the light will stay lit. If your LED lights are not working, unplug the charger after the estimated charging time has passed. After charging your power bank, connect one of your electronic devices to the bank using a USB cord. If the power bank charged correctly, the device should begin charging. If the device didn't charge, try plugging it into a different outlet. If your power bank still won't charge, it may be broken. Contact the manufacturer to see if it can be fixed.

TL;DR in Russian:

Узнайте примерное время зарядки в заводской инструкции. Отключите питание при полном заряде аккумулятора. Убедитесь, что аккумулятор заряжен.


You should not squeeze your pimple. Your pimple will often pop on its own when a white head forms. Removing the pus will prevent infections and can reduce inflammation. Gently press down on the sides of the pimple with your washcloth until all of the pus has been pushed out.  Wash your hands before and after touching a pimple. A whitehead designates that the pus is near the surface of your skin. Squeezing a pimple can damage your skin and help spread bacteria to other parts of your face. A popped pimple is an open wound and applying an ointment or solution can help heal your skin. Apply an antibiotic ointment, like Neosporin, to the pimple to help heal and protect it.  As an alternative, you can apply all-natural solutions like witch hazel or warm water with salt to the area if you don't have an antibiotic ointment. For minor pimple wounds, an antibiotic ointment can help it heal in a couple of days. After you pop your pimple, you may want to pick at the scab that forms. You should not do this. Irritating the area will make the pimple swell, get irritated, and become redder. Picking at your pimple can slow down the healing process. Every time you touch your popped pimple, you are transferring bacteria and other contaminants to the open wound.

TL;DR in Russian:

Наложите на прыщ теплый компресс. Вотрите в прыщ мазь с антибиотиком. Не раздирайте прыщик.


You should not start medicating you have been assessed and properly diagnosed by a physician. Once your doctor has confirmed your diagnosis, she may suggest some different medications that you can take to help with the symptoms of a hiatal hernia. Be aware that these medications will not treat the hernia itself; rather, they will treat the GERD symptoms caused by your hernia. Antacids such as Rolaids, tums, Mylanta, and Maalox can be used before, during, or after meals to neutralize stomach acid. They come in many forms such as tablets, chewables, and liquids. You can also take H-2 blockers such as Zantac and Pepcid, which block receptors in your stomach to reduce acid production. It takes 30 to 90 minutes for the medications to take effect and it is advised to be taken before the first meal of the day. These can last up to 24 hours.  Proton pump inhibitors like Nexium and Prilosec work similarly to H2 blockers by blocking glands that produce acid in the stomach. Take 30 min before your first meal of the day.  All of these medications can be bought over the counter without a prescription. No matter the medication, always follow directions as labeled. There are some fairly significant illnesses on the differential diagnosis list that have very similar symptoms to a hiatal hernia, such as esophagitis, an esophageal motility disorder, and coronary artery disease. You need to see your doctor to rule these out before attempting treatment, even with over-the-counter products. 95% of hiatial hernias are Type 1 or sliding and these do not require surgery. 5% are other types of hiatial hernias called "paraesophageal." Patients with paraesophageal hernias who are symptomatic are recommended to have surgical repair. A paraesophageal hernia may lead to severe symptoms requiring emergent attention, such as a blockage of the passage of food, strangulation (blood supply becoming cut off to herniated tissue), perforation, and respiratory compromise. When all else fails, surgery is presented as an option. The surgeon will...

TL;DR in Russian:

Принимайте препараты, отпускаемые без рецепта. В некоторых случаях может понадобиться хирургическое вмешательство. Узнайте у врача о видах оперативного вмешательства при грыже пищеводного отверстия диафрагмы. Узнайте у врача о современных методах хирургии.


You should not stay up all night just because you need to study; your sleep is the time when memories are properly processed. Denying yourself sleep can make your brain less effective at retaining information. In most cases, it is better to get at least a little bit of rest during the night rather than none at all. To remain healthy, never stay awake for 2 whole nights in a row. Pull an all nighter as infrequently as possible. Negativity will only slow your productivity, so assure yourself that you will be rewarded for your time and effort. Positive thoughts, on the other hand, will keep you motivated and prevent you from giving up too soon. Here are some examples:  "I am almost done!" "This is actually not too hard." "I will get to see the sunrise." "I will get a good grade." For example, you can promise yourself a 15-minute break after you complete an assignment. During this break, you can eat your favorite snack and watch some TV, browse the internet, or play a game.  Having rewards is like the carrot on the end of the stick; they will motivate you to keep going, despite your tiredness. Make sure that you set the rewards before you begin. This way, your mind will anticipate them. Pulling an all-nighter is tough on your body and mind. After you do the all-nighter and get your work done, go to sleep. Then, at some point during the next day, give yourself another bit of time to just relax and recharge. This could be watching a movie or TV show, going for a walk, or something else you enjoy doing.

TL;DR in Russian:

Убедитесь, что предстоящая бессонная ночь неизбежна. Мыслите позитивно. Вознаграждайте себя за каждое выполненное задание. Выделите немного времени для послеобеденного сна.


You should not store the bulbs until they're completely dry. This process takes about three weeks. After you've removed the bulbs from the soil, place them upside down in a pot.  Place the pot in an area away from direct sunlight during the drying process.  The pot should be placed in a dry, airy space. A storage shed or garage would work well. After three weeks have passed, you can prepare your dahlias for winter storage. They should be packed into storage containers with either peat moss, sawdust, or potting mix.  Use a tray to store your plants. Then, cover the container with a piece of burlap or a similar material. If your area is not prone to extremely cold winters, you can leave the tray outside near your garden. However, if temperatures drop below 16°F (−9°C), you need to store the dahlia bulbs in some kind of shelter. The area must be dry, cooler, and well-ventilated for the bulbs to thrive.  A dry cellar or cupboard in a cooler area of your home, such as a basement or attic, are all good areas to store dahlia bulbs. For best results, the storage area should have a temperature between 39° to 45°F (4° to 7°C). You don't want to neglect your bulbs until the coming spring. Throughout the winter, check on them regularly. If you notice any signs of decay. If you notice the bulbs are shriveling, mist them with water. If any portion starts to rot, trim that portion off and remove it from the container.

TL;DR in Russian:

Сушите клубни в течение трех недель. Подготовьте клубни к хранению. Выберите помещение для хранения клубни. Проверяйте клубни на протяжении зимы.


You should not store your fake eyelashes when they're wet, as mold or bacteria could develop on the lashes. You may have to set them aside for an hour or so before they're ready to store. You should store your eyelashes in the box they originally came in. You do not want to leave fake eyelashes loose in a makeup drawer, as they can accrue dirt and debris. This can lead to an eye infection. If you don't have the original box, you can use a contact lens case. You can also purchase boxes for storing false eyelashes online. False eyelashes should be kept out of direct sunlight. This can change the color of the lashes. Make sure to store your eyelashes in a dark place to avoid warping the color.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подождите, пока ресницы полностью высохнут, прежде чем убирать их в надежное место. Положите ресницы обратно в упаковку. Хранить ресницы необходимо в защищенном от солнечных лучей месте.


You should only perform the maneuver at home if your doctor has clearly diagnosed you with BPPV. If there is a chance that your vertigo is caused by some other condition, the maneuver should only be done by a doctor.  The maneuver you will do at home is almost the same as the one the doctor performed, only there will be some slight adjustments. You should not do the Epley maneuver at home if you have had a recent neck injury, if you have a history of stroke, or if you have a limited range of your neck motion. Place a pillow on your bed so that when you lie down, it will be behind your back and your head will be lower than the rest of your body. Sit on the bed and turn your head 45 degrees to the right. If possible ask someone to be there while you do this maneuver. It will be very helpful to have someone keep time for you, as you will have to remain in each position for 30 seconds. With your head still rotated 45 degrees to the left, quickly lie back so that the pillow is under your shoulders and your head is lower than your shoulders. Your head should be resting on the bed. Keep your head at the 45 degree angle facing the right. Wait for 30 seconds. While you are lying down, quickly turn your head 90 degrees to the opposite side (in this case the left). Do not lift your head when you turn it; if you do, you may have to start the maneuver over. Stay in this position for 30 seconds again. From your position where you are facing the left, move your body so you that you are lying on your right side. Your head should be facing down so that your nose is touching the bed. Keep in mind that you head will be turned more than your body. Wait 30 seconds in the last position, lying on your right side with your head facing down so your nose touches the bed. Once the 30 seconds is up, sit up. You can repeat the self-maneuver 3 to 4 times a day until you do not feel any sensations of vertigo. Note that, if you have BPPV on the left side, do the same exercise but with the sides reversed. Especially if it is your first time...

TL;DR in Russian:

Знайте, когда можно выполнять процедуру дома. Положите подушку на кровать. Быстро лягте на кровать. Поверните голову на 90 градусов влево. Лягте на правый бок, повернув в эту же сторону голову. Задержитесь в этом положении, а затем сядьте. Старайтесь выполнять процедуру перед сном.
