Have you gone to this park before? If not, research beforehand. If there doesn't seem to be any attractions that you like, don't force yourself. and invite friends. Make sure you know how much tickets cost and buy them beforehand if necessary. If you are sure that you want to go multiple times, see if a season pass is worth the money. There are sometimes passes that are used up once you go on a certain number of rides. If you only want to ride a few, opt for these, but if not, make sure you are buying a pass that will let you ride all day. If you’re making a multi-day vacation of it (which is a good idea if you want to hit up the amusement park), staying on site or nearby will make it all much easier. While it may seem tempting, riding rides in whatever order you feel like can mean you travel from one end of the park to the other many more times than is necessary, and your feet will be very sore as a result. To avoid this, get a park map and use it. Ride things in order, or at least ride everything you want to go on in one specific area of the park before moving on to another. Depending on how long you will be at the park, make plans for what you will eat. Keep in mind that park food is expensive. If you have nausea but otherwise enjoy park rides, there should be nausea-relieving pills at your local drugstore or pharmacy. Take these beforehand. Unless you're sure that you won't be nauseous, it's best to have these with you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Исследуйте. Спланируйте поездку и пригласите друзей. Оставайтесь на месте. Составьте план. Имейте достаточно денег на руках. Если у вас бывает тошнота, но вы все же катаетесь в парках аттракционов, вы можете приобрести таблетки от тошноты в местной аптеке.


Have you met his family yet?  Especially his mother?  This is a sign that he is serious about you. If he regularly takes you to family events and speaks about you to his family, this is another sign of commitment. If you have met his close friends, then he probably is very invested in the relationship. You might hear him speaking about you to his friends on the phone as well, which is another good sign. Don't sweat it if he doesn't invite you out when it's boys’ night.  This is a time for him and his guys. A man who is serious about his partner will often go above and beyond for them.  Does he sit through your favorite shows with you even though he hates them?  Or maybe he takes you out for sushi even though he doesn’t eat it. These are signs of a man who cares for you. Are you often your guy’s plus one to events?  You might find you two are so serious that he no longer even asks you to be his date for major events.  Instead, it might be an expectation or assumption at this point. If you two spend more time together than apart, you’re probably serious. If you have a drawer, toothbrush, or section of a closet at his home, then he is probably invested in the relationship.  Not only are you a regular fixture at his place, but so are your things. If he keeps things at your place, this is a sign of seriousness, as well, but it is not necessarily a sign of commitment. When your car breaks down, is he the first person you call?  Or when your pet died, did he come over to comfort you?  When a man is serious in a relationship, he often makes himself available and useful.  Notice the things he’s done for you over the course of your relationship.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте, как часто вы находитесь в кругу его семьи? Определите уровень общения с его друзьями. Обратите внимание, если ради вас он делает что-то, что ему не нравится. Подумайте, как часто он включает вас в свои планы. Обратите внимание, какие предметы вы храните друг у друга дома. Подумайте, как часто он находится рядом, когда вы в этом нуждаетесь.


Have your child take a bath with 500 grams of salt dissolved in the water before bed. Minerals from the saltwater may reduce infection, strengthen the immune system, and detoxify the body. This step might be useful if your child has a tendency to develop bladder infections. Ideally, the temperature of the water should be about body temperature: 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit or 37 degrees Celsius. Add fresh or dried parsley to boiling water; let it stand for five to ten minutes, then strain it, add a few drops of lemon, and stir in a teaspoon of honey. Parsley tea guards against urinary tract infections and supplies calcium and magnesium. Only offer the tea in the mornings, though; it could increase urination and lead to more accidents at nighttime. Allow cornsilk to dry for several days, then make a tea by covering it with boiling water and letting it stand for ten minutes. Cornsilk tea may strengthen the muscles of the bladder and remove toxins from it. Again, offer the tea only in the mornings, as drinking it at night could cause more accidents. Boil oats in a liter of cold water, then let the tea sit for an hour before straining and drinking. Oats are rich in calcium and magnesium and may help calm the nervous system, which can help prevent accidents caused by stress. As with other teas, offer oat tea to your child only in the mornings. Bedwetting is usually normal and does not typically need to be addressed by a physician. However:  See a pediatrician if your child is older than seven years old and still wetting the bed. A pediatrician can help rule out other causes (including urinary tract and bladder infections) and give you advice for helping your child stay dry. See a pediatrician if your child is older than five years old and still having accidents during the daytime as well as at night. By five years old, most children should be able to control urination. If yours can’t yet, see a pediatrician to rule out physical causes and get advice for treatment, but be aware that this problem can be genetic: you may...

Have your supplies on hand before you start on this experiment. You will need:  Plastic bottle with a cap: A large soda bottle is ideal for this experiment. Make sure to remove the label from the plastic bottle. Then you will be able to see the clouds when they form inside the bottle. It is also best to choose a clear bottle. Matches Water Use hot water from the tap. Pour in enough water to cover the bottom of the bottle, or about 1 inch (2.5 cm).  Don’t use boiling water in a plastic bottle. The plastic might warp and the experiment won’t work. The water should be hot, though. Try for about 130 °F (54 °C). Swirl around the water a bit to warm up the sides of the bottle. Blow it out after a few full seconds. Make sure an adult is around you while you are doing this step. Tilt the bottle with one hand and insert the head of the match into the top of the bottle. Let the smoke from the match fill the bottle. , where it will seem to disappear. Discard the match. Grip the neck of the bottle so that you do not squeeze the sides before the cap is screwed in completely. This prevents any smoke or air from escaping. Do this three or four times.  Wait a few seconds then squeeze the bottle again, this time holding the squeeze longer before releasing. You should see your very own cloud there!   Putting pressure on the bottle's sides forces the water particles to compress.  When you let go of the sides of the bottle, the air expands, decreasing the temperature. When the air cools, the particles can stick together a little more easily, which causes them to clump into little tiny droplets around the smoke molecules.   This mimics the process of clouds forming in the sky.  Clouds in the sky are made up of water droplets that have clung to tiny particles of dust, smoke, ash, or salt.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подготовьте необходимые принадлежности. Налейте в бутылку горячую воду. Зажгите спичку. Опустите обгоревшую спичку в бутылку. Закрутите бутылку крышкой. Сожмите стенки бутылки. Наблюдайте, как туман образовывается в бутылке.


Having HPV does not typically cause any complications for the baby.   It is possible for a mother to transmit HPV to her baby during the delivery, and that transmission may cause respiratory issues or genital warts in the baby. However, these cases are very rare.  Even when HPV is transmitted to the baby he is typically able to recover from the symptoms, either with his own immune system or through medical intervention. Vaccines, when given to males and females at an early age (around 11 to 12 years old), have been shown to prevent the contraction of HPV and its complications, including genital warts.  Young women should be given two vaccines - Cervarix and Gardasil - around age 11 to 12 to prevent the forms of HPV that are most likely to cause cervical cancer. These vaccines also prevent the contraction of genital warts and anal, vaginal, and vulvar cancers. Young women through the age of 26 may still be given the Cervarix and Gardasil vaccines if they were not fully vaccinated at a younger age. Young men should be given the vaccine Gardasil around age 11 to 12 to protect against genital warts and anal cancers. Young men through age 26 may still be given the Gardasil vaccine if they were not properly vaccinated at a younger age. Vaccines cannot be used to treat HPV once it has been acquired. Vaccines also cannot be used to prevent cancer once HPV has been contracted. The vaccines are only effective in individuals who have not yet acquired HPV. Treatment typically involves removal of warts or application of antiviral medication to treat precancerous lesions. The exact course of treatment will vary, depending on the individual's health and the doctor's recommendations. .  At-home treatments for genital warts include Podofilox, Imiquimod, and Sinecatechins. These prescription-strength medications are applied to the affected area to remove genital warts.  Your doctor may administer cryotherapy every one to two weeks as needed to freeze warts.  Podophyllin resin may be administered by your doctor every one to two...

Having a baby changes individual lives and that of a couple in significant ways. By understanding and talking about the inevitable changes that will happen, you can prevent misunderstandings and potential problems in your relationship.  Women are hard-wired to focus on nurturing their baby in the first few months after birth. Being aware of this along with inherent changes can help your husband prepare himself mentally.  For example, most women don’t want to have sex in the initial months after giving birth—and some don’t even want to have sex during pregnancy. But men don’t experience this change. Understand that it’s hormonal and make a plan for how you’ll deal with it. There are all kinds of books and websites available to help you prepare for your child. Gather information from your doctor, friends, books, and websites to help you navigate your pregnancy as a couple.  Ask your doctor and friends for tips and resources that can be valuable during and after pregnancy. You may want to consult sources that explain what is happening to your body at every stage so that you and your husband understand the changes you’re both experiencing. One of the best gifts you can give your baby is a strong partnership. Keeping your relationship strong and healthy throughout your pregnancy and beyond can help you effectively prepare and care for your baby.  It’s important at this time to have discussions about all kinds of matters including expectations, family values and how you’ll raise your children. Even if you can agree completely, you can find some kind of compromise that may help to prevent undermining your relationship. Schedule ample time together to enjoy life as a couple. You can go for walks or have more formal date nights or vacations to strengthen your bond. Babies are expensive and require a lot of time and attention. Talking about your finances and how you’ll share the work of taking care of your baby can help avoid miscommunications down the road.  You may want to discuss workload during your pregnancy,...

Having a backup will help minimize any downtime if the downgrade process doesn't go well. See this guide for instructions on how to backup your iPhone. An IPSW file is the firmware file that contains the iOS system software. You will need to download the signed IPSW file for 7.1.2 that is specific to your device. There are different files for different phones and different carriers. You can find the IPSW files at places like ipsw.me.  You have to be fast about it, though, because Apple stops signing these files shortly after releasing the next iOS version. Open iTunes if it doesn't open automatically.  Hold down ⌥ Opt (Mac) or ⇧ Shift (Windows) and click Restore. Browse for the IPSW file that you downloaded. Click Update again. The downgrade process will begin. If this fails, you may have downloaded the wrong file, or Apple may have stopped signing the files digitally. If Apple is no longer signing the files, then downgrading will no longer be possible. Apple signs files digitally for a short time after the update is released, but they do not announce when they will stop signing them. After downgrading, your iDevice will show the Setup screen. Follow the prompts to setup the device, then restore from your backup.

Having a bad birthday is a huge letdown. Acknowledging that it was a bummer and mourning a little bit is important; if you pretend you’re not upset, it can lead to a prolonged bad mood. Eat some ice cream or have a good cry, but then move on! You have some fun to plan. If your birthday didn’t go the way you wanted it to, take matters into your own hands and have a birthday redo.  Pick a day coming up (be sure to give ample time for people to plan ahead) and treat yourself to a party. Some tips for a great post-birthday bash:  Invite as many or as little people as you feel comfortable; you control the guest list! If you’re going out, pick a favorite restaurant you already love or, if you’re feeling adventurous, go to a new place you’ve been wanting to try. If you’re staying in, buy or make food and decorations to highlight the birthday theme, or consider incorporating a nontraditional theme, like a favorite era or trend, to liven it up further. Buy or make a cake to make it feel like a real birthday celebration! There’s no rule that says you can only accept gifts on your birthday, so go out and treat yourself to some gifts!  During your birthday redo, make sure to do things on that day (or week!) that you will enjoy. This won’t fix your bad birthday completely, but treating yourself can help ease the sting in the meantime.  Buy yourself a present you were hoping to get but did not. Rent a favorite movie and order takeout from your favorite restaurant. Invite some friends over or have a solo DIY spa day.

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a big, long net will be the easiest way to catch a gecko, as it allows you to capture the gecko from the greatest distance.  Hover the net slightly above the gecko. Try to center the net's rim around the spot the gecko is standing. Drop the net as quickly as possible. Hold the rim of the net down against the ground or wall to contain the gecko, once you've trapped it. Wear thick gloves if you're unsure whether the gecko might bite.  Cup your hands together, creating a hollow tube with your hands. Hover your hands slightly above the gecko. Drop your cupped hands down over the gecko. Be sure that the gecko won't be able to climb out of your hands. Keep the bottoms of your hands flat against the ground, and your fingers tightly knit. You can use a stick to gently "guide" a gecko in the direction you want it to go.  Slowly lower the stick slightly behind the gecko. When the gecko moves, continue to "herd" the gecko in the direction you want it to go.  Be careful not to harm the gecko. You should never actually touch the lizard with the stick. It should simply be used to guide the gecko toward a net or a second person with open hands.

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a boat equipped with a reliable fish-finder will certainly help in your pursuit of big striped bass.  Having a firm understanding of how to operate your fish-finder will aid you in locating a productive area in which striped bass have gathered. Therefore it is recommended that you read the owner's manual thoroughly before using.  Striped bass can be unpredictable—they can be found at different locations and different depths depending on the weather, time of year and even the time of day. Using your fish-finder will help you to determine the depth at which the bass are holding, which will allow you to present the bait at that exact depth and give you the best chance of actually catching a striped bass. Striped Bass are opportunistic feeders who may be caught using a wide range of bait.  Live bait such as herring, menhaden, mackerel, eels, squid, clams, anchovies, bloodworms, shad, nightcrawlers and sandworms all make great bait for striped bass fishing. You can find these baits at just about any local fishing bait and tackle shop. The type of bait that will bring you the most success will depend on the location you intend to fish in. If you're unfamiliar with the body of water you'll be fishing, consult with a local bait and tackle shop to find out what type of bait they recommend. You can also catch striped bass using a lure that resembles the forage base in the area where you'll be fishing. These lures can be made from plastic, wood, metal, resins or rubber. You should be able to catch striped bass with almost any rod and reel, provided it's heavier than a light spinning outfit.  The type of rod you use will depend on type of fishing you intend to do. Will you be fishing in freshwater or saltwater? Will you be fishing on a boat? Or will you be fishing from the surf or on a jetty, bridge or pier? Will you be chunking bait, or using a lure? The answers to these questions will determine the correct weight, size and flexibility for your rod.  The type of reel you use is arguably more important than the...

Having a cup of coffee or can of soda every day may help minimize your risk of developing Parkinson’s. Make sure to stay within recommended daily allowances for caffeine so that you don’t develop other health problems.  Choose any beverage with caffeine, as there is no evidence that one type of caffeine is better than others. For example, you could have coffee, tea, cola, or energy drinks. Some foods even have natural caffeine. These include: protein bars, coffee-flavored ice cream or yogurt, and chocolate.  Consume less than 400 milligrams of caffeine daily. This is about four cups of brewed coffee, 10 cans of soda, or two “energy shot” drinks. If you are drinking soda in order to get caffeine, consider limiting how much you drink. Sodas are often packed with sugar and won’t promote good health if you drink them too often. In addition to having coffee or tea, green tea may also prevent Parkinson’s. Green tea has compounds called green tea polyphenols, a type of antioxidant, that may eliminate free radicals in your system. Be sure to read labels when drinking green tea. Some products have caffeine while others don’t. Remember that green tea counts towards your daily hydration totals. Eating more peppers—red, green, yellow, and orange—may lower your risk for developing Parkinson’s. Incorporate peppers into daily meals and have them as snacks, both of which may help you stave off Parkinson’s when combined with other dietary and lifestyle choices. Be aware that doctors are still unsure if raw or cooked peppers are better for decreasing your risk. Try having some peppers at each meal and make sure you vary the colors to get the most nutrients. For example, you could have an omelet with peppers at breakfast, a salad with diced peppers for lunch, and stuffed peppers for dinner. Have some pepper strips dipped in hummus or light ranch dressing for a snack. In addition to eating peppers, having fresh and raw vegetables at every meal may decrease your Parkinson’s risk. This is because low levels of the B vitamin...

Having a daily routine is important for dogs of any age, but it's especially important for younger dogs. A puppy can typically only hold his bladder for one hour per every month of age, meaning that young puppies may need to go outside once every hour. It's best to establish a routine as quickly as possible with your dog to ensure that he doesn't have any problems. In addition to the correlation between number of months of age and number of hours a puppy can wait to go out, it's also important to let your dog out first thing in the morning, during or after play time, and after he's eaten a meal or drank a lot of water. This time also refers to the maximum length of time he can hold on (i.e. at night). When house breaking a puppy, it is important to offer him a toilet break every 20- 30 minutes for training purposes. Whether you walk your dog or let him outside in a fenced-in enclosure, it's important for your dog to have a routine spot where he urinates. This can be a tree that you pass near your home, or a certain spot in the yard. Whatever spot your dog chooses, it's important to let him always have access to that spot while you are training him to urinate outdoors.

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a daily workout routine will help you feel and look your best. A good workout should combine a rigorous cardio set with regular weight training for optimal results.  Aim to do a cardio workout four days a week for at least 30 minutes. Incorporate a 20 minute weight-training session twice a week. You may not think much about it on a day-to-day basis, but the way you stand or sit conveys a lot about your confidence and self-esteem. Over time, poor posture can also lead to back and neck problems.  Take regular stretch breaks at work or at home. Try to stand up, stretch, and open up your chest for a few minutes every half hour or so. You should also try to walk around and move your body a little as often as possible.  Sit up straight for better back health and posture. Keep your back and neck straight with your shoulders slightly dropped whenever you're sitting at a desk or in a chair. Some men go their whole lives without ever changing their style. If you know what you like, there's nothing wrong with that. However, changing up your style could help get you out of a rut and feel more confident and attractive.  If you've never grown a beard, try growing one. Many men find that wearing a beard lends a sense of confidence and makes men look more attractive.  Try the opposite. If you've had a beard for many years, shave off your facial hair and see what your bare face looks like after all this time. You might find that you feel more attractive and younger with a simple shave. Pick up one or two articles of clothing that go against your usual style. Try wearing these when you need a confidence booster.

TL;DR in Russian:

Регулярно занимайтесь спортом. Следите за осанкой. Экспериментируйте со своим стилем.


Having a defender trying to block you or steal the ball can be a difficult obstacle to overcome.  However, the defender has some weaknesses that you can exploit to move beyond them.  Try some of the following techniques to get around a defender.  Wait for them to overplay which will send them off balance and allow you to move around them. You can try a fake or juke to make the defender move one way while you go the other. The main focus is to keep the defender off balance, taking away their ability to recover their momentum and block you. Although the defender will be trying their best to slow you down it is important that you set the pace.  If you slow down or give into their defense they will have a better chance of stopping you or stealing the ball.  Always be aggressive when facing any defenders and set the pace of the attack.  Defenders will try to push you into a position where they can steal the ball. Try to push into the defender, causing them to continually back up toward the goal. Try to move towards the defenders backside at all times to prevent them from stealing the ball. Soccer is a team sport and working with your team can greatly increase your chances of scoring more goals during a match.  Passing the ball and properly attacking the defenders will make more shots possible, allowing you to increase your own chances of scoring more goals.    Pass the ball when needed. Keep an eye on your teammates and pass the ball when they are open. Don't hog the ball.  Working together will increase your chances of scoring more often. Once you have a clear shot at the goal you will need to shoot the ball quickly and accurately in order to score the goal.  Make sure you kick the ball with proper technique and shoot it away from where the goal keeper might be located in order to increase your chances of successfully scoring a goal.  Using the inside of your foot allows for greater accuracy at the cost of power. Kick the middle or top half of the ball. Shooting low makes it tough for the goalkeeper to reach the...

Having a diagnosed condition increases your risk of low blood sodium. This means that you’ll need to be extra careful and be on the lookout for symptoms. Some of the health conditions that put you at risk of low blood sodium include:  Having kidney disease, heart disease, or liver cirrhosis Being older, such as over the age of 65 Engaging in intensive exercise regularly, such as triathlons, marathons, and ultramarathons Taking certain medications, such as antidepressants, diuretics (blood pressure medication), and some pain relievers A mild or moderate case of low sodium is usually not an emergency, but it is important to watch for symptoms if you’re at risk of low blood sodium levels.

Call your doctor if you experience:  Nausea Headaches Cramping Weakness Decreased sodium electrolytes in the body can be harmful to you, especially if it's severe. The condition can even be fatal if it's left untreated. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any of the following:  Nausea and Vomiting Confusion Seizures Loss of consciousness If you experience symptoms of low sodium or otherwise suspect that your sodium levels are low, visit your doctor. The only way to confirm low blood sodium level is with a blood or urine test. Low blood sodium can be a serious condition, so it’s important to get treatment right away if you suspect a problem.

Если у вас есть заболевания, при которых высок риск гипонариемии, следите за симптомами. Обратитесь к врачу при появлении симптомов пониженного уровня натрия. Незамедлительно обратитесь за медицинской помощью, если у вас тяжелые симптомы дефицита натрия в крови. Проверьте уровень натрия в крови, если вы подозреваете, что он может быть низким.


Having a foul mouth is just not classy at all. If you have the urge to curse, go into the bathroom and turn on the faucet while you let loose a row of expletives; or curse into a pillow. Never let people see you curse. This will often make you look trashy, and if you're cursing because you're angry, it appears as though you don't know how to control your temper. This is a big sign of having no class. Cursing, in general, should be avoided; cursing at specific people should be avoided even more. That's right. Instead of talking about how someone is trashy, annoying, loud, or stupid, take some time to say something nice about a person who isn't there. Doing so will show that you've got class, and that you're confident and cool enough to realize the strengths of others instead of talking smack the second someone turns around.  If you praise people behind their backs, you'll look like a positive, self-possessed person, instead of someone who is always looking for trouble. If you're always gossiping, people will think you have no class because you don't respect the privacy and boundaries of other people. Has someone ever walked into a party where you were hanging out and said, "I knew I was in the right place when I heard your voice from across the street"? If so, then you better pump down the volume. Everyone can hear you just fine. Don't think that you have to yell or shout to prove your point. Talking evenly, even if you're around a lot of people, is a sign of class because it means you're confident enough not to have to shout to get people's attention. If you're concerned about this, ask your friends to rate you on a loudness scale. If you come close to a 10, or a 10 on the Richter scale, then it's time to tone it down. For some reason, many people who think they are classy just love to talk about how much class they have, especially in comparison to one person or another who has "no class" or "no class whatsoever." If you find yourself saying, "I've got class..." or, "I'm a classy girl..." then you are not...

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a friend in the water with you is comforting. They can remind you what you need to be doing. They can hold you in specific positions while you get a feel for them. Whether you are a child or an adult, there is a swim class out there for you. Being around people who are there to teach you will ease any tension or apprehension you might feel. Having a weekly “date” at the pool will help you be accountable to the learning process. Learning how your body moves and feels in the water is very important. It’s something we’re not used to, but once you get comfortable, water can be very comfortable and soothing.  Start off in the shallow end and begin to move your hands and arms around. Push your hands against the water to feel the resistance. Cup your hands and pull them through the water (sculling). That pressure you feel is what is going to eventually help propel you through the water effortlessly. Bend your legs and let the water come up to your chin. Continue to  move your hands and arms. Even when you are beginning to learn strokes, start each session like this. The most important (and scariest) part of swimming is learning how to breathe. But once you learn how to exhale into the water, you will be on your way to more efficient and graceful swimming.  Reach forward and hold onto the edge of the pool in the shallow end. Put your face in the water and blow out. When you are done, turn your head to the side and take a breath. Push your face back into the water and exhale. Try to create a long, steady stream of bubbles. Repeat until you are comfortable. Exhaling into the water and timing your breathing might be frightening at first, but with practice you’ll soon be ready to learn some basic strokes. It sounds obvious, but floating is a tough skill to learn, and harder to master. In an emergency, knowing how to float can save precious energy and possibly your life. Spend time working on your body position. Learn to float on your stomach and your back.  Relax. You have to relax. While learning how to float on...

Having a friendly expression is the first step in putting your friend at ease. Have a nice, relaxed, and genuine smile that doesn’t look forced. Having a body posture that suggests you are truly interested in someone lets him see how nice you are being to him. Sit leaning slightly forward with your arms casually at your sides. Crossing your arms gives off an appearance of being guarded and closed. Be present in your conversation, ask questions to show you are interested and listening, and your friend will sense you are a person that he can really relax, trust, and talk to. People just really want to be heard.  Asking questions about the people you are with makes the other feel special. Look at it like a detective game, where the goal is to pick up on clues and cues as to who the other person really is inside. You’ll take more interest in him this way, and the person you are talking to will really warm to you. . Good listeners make eye contact for about 75% of a conversation. You don’t want to stare, but show you’re interested. Look between his eyes and the bridge of his nose, or just slightly to the side at his ear lobe. Although you can’t be everything to everybody, you can ask a friend how you appear in social circles and if you seem open and friendly or closed and unwelcoming. You may find that you are unintentionally giving off the wrong vibe.  You might think, for example, that your active-listening face shows you are intently paying close attention but an outsider may think you look stern or even angry. Always offering to help people may come from a place of generosity and friendliness but may be accidentally perceived as you thinking that your friends can’t do something well enough on their own. You might not know this, however, unless you ask. Guard your emotions, however, and be prepared in case you hear your friend bluntly tell you that you come off entirely different than you imagine.

TL;DR in Russian:

Улыбайтесь! Наклонитесь вперед. Внимательно слушайте. Поддерживайте зрительный контакт. Узнайте у близкого друга, как другие воспринимают вас.


Having a goal in mind will give you motivation to finish your work, and you'll be more successful at staying focused. Part of the reason we lose focus is because we can't see the point of whatever task we have to get done and would rather be doing something else.  For example, if you're studying, remind yourself why it's important. It may not be important for you to ace 1 quiz or test, but it is important for you to succeed in the course that will factor in your quiz or test grade, and it is important for you to get good grades so you can graduate. Or, if you're doing work, remind yourself why your work is important. If the work is a means to an end, remind yourself of all the things you can buy because of the work, or about all of the fun things you can do once your work day is over. It's easy to get bogged down in a distracting series of small tasks if you're not working towards a single, large goal. When you have a goal to work towards, it can be the carrot at the end of the stick that makes the task worth doing.  So, what is your goal for completing your task? Is it to simply get done with the work or school day, to save up enough money to buy a boat, or to advance your career? For example, your goal could also be just to clean your whole house so you can throw a fun party, or to run for 40 minutes without giving up so you can be in better shape. ” When you know exactly what your purpose and goal are, you can create a focus mantra that you repeat to yourself whenever you get distracted. It can be just a simple phrase that you repeat when you're getting sidetracked that helps get you back in order. If repeating this out loud would be make you feel awkward, try writing your mantra down on a sticky note and sticking it on your desk. Your mantra could be something like, “No more Facebook and no more texting until I get my work done. When I get my work done, I'll be ready to ace the chemistry test, and when I ace the chemistry test, I'll get an A in the class!”

TL;DR in Russian:

Напоминайте себе о конечной цели. Выберите конкретную цель. Повторяйте или записывайте “мантру для концентрации”.


Having a good cleaning and skincare routine is the most important thing you can do to care for oily skin. Gently clean your face twice a day, morning and night, with warm water and soap, or a soapless facial cleanser. Use a gentle cleanser at first, as a harsher cleanser can actually increase oil production.  If a normal cleanser does not reduce the oiliness of your skin, consider a cleanser that includes benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or beta hydroxy acid. Start with a cleanser with benzoyl peroxide. This chemical is used specifically to treat mild to moderate acne.  A chemical cleanser like this might lead to side-effects, such as drying, redness and scaling. These effects often recede after the first month of using the cleanser.  You may have to try a number of different products to see which one works best for you.  Use your hands to clean your face and do not use a washcloth or loofah. Pat your face dry afterwards — do not rub or irritate the skin. If you have oily skin, it is important that you choose cosmetics that will not exacerbate it. Check the labels carefully and always opt for “oil-free” or “water-based” cosmetics. There is some uncertainty about the direct effect of cosmetics on oil production, but heavy makeup may block your pores. If you can go without, try holding off on products like foundation. Keep your makeup minimal (like using mascara and lipstick only) to avoid clogging pores. Often people with oily skin will steer clear of moisturizers, thinking that their skin doesn’t need any extra lubrication, but this is not true. Those with oily skin still need to moisturize. Certainly oily moisturizers should be avoided, along with anything that might further clog up your skin. Oil-free moisturizers, however, can help you achieve a balance in your skin.  Vary the amount you apply according to the parts of your face that are oilier or drier.  Choose the product carefully, and look for a non-oily non-comedogenic moisturizer. Look for products specifically tailored to those with...

TL;DR in Russian:

Умывайте лицо дважды в день. Используйте косметику, которая не содержит жиров. Используйте увлажняющие средства. Не умывайте лицо слишком часто. Контролируйте все, что касается вашего лица.


Having a great sense of fashion and taking care of your hygiene are two of the most important factors in determining how attractive you are to the girls in your school. If you are currently wearing striped sweaters, awkward looking jeans, and tennis shoes, it's time for a change. Fix up your hair, buy some shirts that fit you, and start wearing more dapper shoes.  Stay clean. Girls are suckers for clean guys. Shower regularly, floss and brush your teeth twice daily. You need to smell nice to make an impression. Purchase or find some low-rise, slim fit pants or jeans. If you're on the heavier side, baggier pants are probably better (but don't get lost in a sea of cloth). Skinny jeans that hug every inch of your legs are probably not the best fit, unless you're sure you can pull it off. Purchase or find some trim collared shirts. You don't need dragons or tribal patterns on your shirts to impress girls. A simple plaid, one-tone, or striped pattern will do. Purchase or find some soft, simple sweaters or jackets. Give girls an excuse to get close to you. V-necks are in style currently. Crew necks and hoodies also work. Go with what you think will look good on you. Get a nice haircut. Yes, you might have to shell out more than $20 for a haircut. But it will be worth it. Look through magazines like GQ or Vanity Fair and bring a picture along of someone who has the cut you'd like. Girls are naturally attracted to guys who have a lot of "social proof." To gain social proof, you must be "popular," which simply means you just need to make a lot of friends. So be more talkative and get to know the people in your school, your class, etc.   Always smile and laugh. Try to have a good time with everyone. If you're not looking like you're enjoying yourself, you are a turn-off.  Get involved in what you like. High school can be tough for a lot of us because we're still figuring out what we like and what we don't. If you do have hobbies, interests, or curiosities, find other people who share that share passion. Chances are...

TL;DR in Russian:

У тебя должен быть какой-то стиль. Будь дружелюбным. Будь верен своим убеждениям. Не бойся быть отвергнутым.


Having a healthy dose of vitamins in your diet will improve your overall health. You can also purchase certain vitamins that lead directly to improving the health of your hair. Research products specifically for your hair type to find what will work best for you. Most of these vitamins can be incorporated into your eating routine naturally, if they aren't included in it already.  Biotin, otherwise known as Vitamin H, improves the health of your hair. It increases your hair's elasticity and moisturizes dryness. This will prevent breaking. You can find biotin in brown rice, lentils, oats, among other foods. Vitamin A helps produce healthy sebum, an oily substance released by your scalp. Sebum helps prevent dryness. Do not overload on Vitamin A, however, as an excess of it can actually lead to hair loss. Vitamin E promotes healthy skin while improving your body's blood circulation. This vitamin increases your body's ability to intake oxygen. Having a steady flow of oxygen into your body will aid your body in producing new hair cells. In addition to strengthening your hair, more protein in your diet will improve your inner health. When your body digests protein, it breaks it down into smaller amino acids. These will aid in the construction of new body tissues, antibodies, hormones, enzymes, and blood cells.  Meats like steak, chicken, and fish contain healthy protein and amino acids. If you're a vegetarian, you can get your protein from tofu, beans, nuts, and legumes. These foods also replenish other vitamins crucial to healthy hair growth. Protein is necessary for tissue repair. Your cells need amino acids to remain intact and healthy. Protein is the active substance in repairing broken cells, so having it in your diet will help replenish dead skin and hair cells. While they're tough to come by, Omega-3 fatty acids are vital to improving your inner health. Good fatty acids in your diet will lower triglyceride levels, reducing your risk for heart disease.  Researchers have found that high levels of Omega-3 acids...

Попробуйте принимать витамины, стимулирующие рост волос. Ешьте больше белка. Введите в свой рацион омега-3 жирные кислоты. Пейте больше воды.


Having a high vertical jump will enable you to be a more formidable player, giving you an advantage over your opponent. Achieve high jumping with plyometrics, which are movements that are completed with a lot of force very quickly. Measuring your current jump height will give you a good indication of how much you are improving. To measure your height:  Ask someone to observe you. Jump up as high as you can next to a wall while reaching your arms upward. Have your observer mark on the wall how high you jumped and measure the height. You can also put a bit of chalk on your hands. As you jump up against a wall, extend your arm upward and touch the wall at the highest point you can reach. Measure that height. Use a surface that is about 2 feet off the ground, such as a jump box or bench. Face the box and jump on it with both feet landing flat and balanced. Do 3 sets of 20 repetitions every day. When this height becomes easy for you, add more height and challenge yourself further. Stand with your legs shoulder-width apart and hold 10-pound weights in each hand at your sides. Bend your knees and jump up in the air. At the same time, shrug your shoulders to help lift the weights. Land back down with both feet firmly balanced on the floor. Complete 3 sets of 25 repetitions every day.  When this weight becomes easy, increase your weights in 5-poumd increments. Alternately, use a medicine ball instead of weights. Lift the ball above your head as you jump up. Bring the ball back to your chest when you land on the ground. In between other exercises, jump rope as quickly as possible for 30-second intervals. This will not only improve your ability to jump quickly and with height, but it will also improve your endurance and cardio performance. Training your leg muscles will help you jump higher with more force. Do squats, deadlift weight training, and other strength training for your legs 2-3 times a week. After spending two weeks on these types of jump training exercises, re-measure your jump height to see how much you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Измерьте текущую высоту своего вертикального прыжка. Запрыгивайте на ящик или скамейку. Выполняйте толчковую тягу с прыжком. Попробуйте прыгать со скакалкой. Укрепите мышцы ног. По прошествии 2 недель вновь измерьте высоту своего прыжка.


Having a network of close friends is one the best ways to become happy with yourself in the long run. Having the right friends can improve your self-esteem, make you feel needed, and boost your self-confidence.  Treasure old friendships. Maintain these relationships with frequent visits, emails, phone calls, or skype sessions. If you've met someone who you really click with, don't be afraid to ask them on a coffee date to see if you can get to know each other better. Dump your toxic friends. If you have a friend who makes you feel terrible about yourself or is so negative that they manage to ruin your mood every time you hang out, it may be time to let them go. In many cases, nobody has done more for you or knows you better than your parents or siblings. Whether you're off at college, living in a different country, or sharing a house with your family members, it's important to be happy with who they are in order to be truly happy being yourself.  If you have a good relationship with your parents, take time to talk to them often, and tell them you love them. Don’t forget to thank them! Treat your siblings well. Even if you sometimes you feel like you and your sibling live on different planets, you still share a common bond of knowing what it's like to grow up in the same place with the same parents. Even if you don’t have a strong relationship with your biological family, you can appreciate those who are like family in your life. Consider who you might consider to be your family, and let them know how you feel. Feeling involved in your neighborhood, city, religion, school, or other community group can make you feel like you belong to something bigger. This can help you create long-lasting relationships and find interesting things to do.  Introduce yourself to your neighbors. Your neighbors will not only make you feel involved in where you live, but they could end up being your best friends. Attend town hall meetings, book clubs on your streets, concerts by local musicians, volunteer park clean-up days, or any...

Having a nice scent associated with your presence can make you appear more fashionable. Try to develop a classy scent using perfume or scented lotion. Ask for samples of scents you like from a department store and try them all out before buying the one you like the most.  For men, choose a cologne that you use consistently. Look for a fragrance that blends with your natural odor. You can also combine or layer products to create a unique scent. Make sure you don't use too much cologne, however, as this can be off-putting. For women, scented lotion, perfume, shampoo, and conditioner all carry distinct scents. Choose a brand that is pleasant but not overpowering. Too much perfume or scent can be irritating to others. Your grooming habits can also help you become more fashionable. Focus on your hair, shaving habits, and makeup.  If you're a man, shave on a regular basis. Keep your hair trimmed and brushed. If you're female, neutral makeup is sometimes more flattering that dramatic colors. Stick to tones that match your skin. If you paint your nails, do so carefully. Make sure you avoid smearing the polish and redo the nails as needed when you notice the color fading or chipping. Otherwise, keep your nails clean and clear. Being fashionable goes beyond clothing and make-up. You should also strive to create a fun and fashionable home environment. You can search sites like Pinterest for inspiration. Then, pick out similar items from a discount home-goods store.  Line drawers in your home with scented, patterned paper. This can be a fun way to make your home cute and fashionable.  If you work in an office, consider bringing in personal business cards and pens. This can be a fun way to add flare to your personal style. A fun way to live a fashionable lifestyle is attending fashion exhibits. Watch for fashion related exhibits at local art galleries. Make a day trip to a big city if a big fashion exhibit is coming into town. This can help you stay up-to-date on trends while having a sense of the history behind fashion....

Having a positive morning routine can help set the tone for the entire day. Wake up to your alarm 15 minutes earlier than usual. Spend a few minutes in bed, take some deep breaths, and assure yourself that today will be a good day. Tell yourself that this is a chance for a fresh start, which will help you center yourself for the rest of the day. Finding pockets of time during the day to help you let go of problems, consider remedies or solutions, or treating yourself will help you maintain a Zen attitude. Constantly rushing around will add to your stress and make it harder to maintain calm. Take time to enjoy activities like cooking, walking or writing. This will also help you feel more in control over things in your life. Meditating will give your mind some much needed space to process everyday stresses. Choose the same time of day in order to get yourself into a routine. This is often best at the beginning of the day, when you are preparing for the day. Meditating doesn’t need to take very long, so adjust the time to what works for you. Start with a minimum of 5 minutes and work up to 10 minutes, then 25 minutes.  Take a minimum of 5 minutes to sit quietly and comfortably. Focus on your breathing, drawing in full, deep breaths through your nose and into your lungs and stomach. Breathe out slowly and deliberately. Count to 4 on the inhale, and count to 4 on the exhale.  Keep your eyes open with a soft focus. You can close your eyes if this feels more comfortable to you. As your mind begins to wander, bring it back to focus on your breathing and to resume counting the breaths. Sleep is a naturally healing technique that will help you remain calm and ready to tackle the day. Plan to go to bed at a regular bedtime every night and aim to get at least 7-8 hours of sleep. Turning off distractions such as your phone or computer will go a long way to uncluttering your mind. Social media and email encourage you to respond to people’s needs and requests instantly and constantly. Taking time away from your electronic...

TL;DR in Russian:

Правильно начинайте день. Находите время для себя. Не торопитесь. Ежедневно занимайтесь медитацией. Грамотно планируйте отдых. Отключите все электронные устройства.


Having a regular schedule is key to maintaining an exercise routine. If you find the right time of day and duration and stick to it, you’re more likely to maintain a steady and regular exercise regimen.  Look for a part of the day when you have enough time to devote to running without being stressed or rushed. Aim to jog consistently at least twice a week for the best results. As you get into better shape, gradually increase your workouts to help prevent you from getting into an exercise rut. Aim to increase your running distance by about 10% per week. So, if you run 5 miles (8.0 km) one week, increase it to 5.5 miles (8.9 km) the next. Having goals can help keep you focused and give you something to work towards. Think of a specific goal or challenge you would like to meet, and try to consistently work towards meeting it.  For example, you might work on meeting a particular time or distance goal, such as running 1 mile (1.6 km) in 10 minutes. Training for a race can be a great way to set goals for yourself and stay motivated. For example, you might train for a 5K or sign up for a charity run. Changing up your running routine is important to keep your body challenged so it doesn’t fall into a fitness rut. Variation is also vital to keeping you from getting bored or discouraged with your routine. Try running different routes, varying your pace and distance, or switching between indoor and outdoor runs.  Integrating new terrain can help change up your routine, so try adding hills or stairs to your route. Include intervals in your run. Intervals involve repeatedly alternating between running full out for several seconds followed by returning to a normal pace for several minutes. Alternatively, you can choose a landmark, sprint to it, then return to your normal pace for several minutes before choosing another landmark, sprinting to it, returning to normal pace, and so on. Running with another person is a great way to stay motivated and to hold yourself accountable. Ask around among your friends, family, or...

TL;DR in Russian:

Составьте регулярный график занятий. Постепенно наращивайте время и расстояние. Ставьте конкретные беговые цели. Меняйте привычный уклад для поддержания интереса. Бегайте с другом.


Having a safe pregnancy is important to a healthy birth and baby. Making sure you’re getting proper obstetrical care from a doctor, nurse practitioner or midwife can help ensure not only that your pregnancy is progressing normally but also that it’s safe for you to check your cervix for dilation.  Be aware that beginning in your ninth month of pregnancy, your doctor will begin looking for signs that your labor is getting closer. This includes palpitating your abdomen and performing an internal exam to check your cervix. He or she will see if the baby has “dropped,” which means that the cervix has begun to dilate and get softer. Ask your doctor any questions you may have, including if the baby has dropped. You should also ask if it is safe to check dilation on your own. If your pregnancy is safe, then you can proceed. Having dirty hands can spread bacteria and germs that cause infection. Checking your cervix requires inserting a hand or fingers into your vagina. It’s imperative to your health and that of your unborn baby to wash your hands before you check your cervix for dilation.  Use any soap and some warm water to clean your hands. Wet your hands with running water and apply your soap, lathering well. Rub your hands vigorously for at least 20 seconds, making sure to scrub each surface of your hands. Rinse off the soap and then dry your hands thoroughly. Use a hand sanitizer of at least 60% alcohol if you don’t have soap. Apply enough of the sanitizer for both hands to the palm of one hand. Just as with soap, rub your hands together and make sure you cover every surface including nails. Keep rubbing until your hands are dry. If you’re a bit worried or scared about doing the exam on your own, ask your partner or another loved one for help. Allow the person to help as much as you are comfortable with and like. Support can come in the form of holding a mirror or your hand or even offering calming words. Before you can effectively check your cervix for dilation, you need to be in a comfortable position. You...

Having a sentence or two in your head will help you lead the event in the right direction. Are you planning it to educate your community? Persuade potential donors for funds? To celebrate a specific individual or group of individuals? Get as narrow as possible. Whatever you're doing (be it educating, persuading, celebrating, etc.), why are you doing it? Think of it as your mission statement. Your framework for success. When you know exactly what you want to do, it's a lot easier to do it! What exactly do you want to accomplish? Not how many people do you want to show up, not the actual fact that the event is even happening -- what do you want to come out of this? 5 people to walk away a new part of your organization? $1,000 raised? Minds changed? People excited?  Think of the top three things you wish would happen as a result of this event and concentrate on them becoming a reality. Maybe one goal is financial, one is social, and one is personal. It's up to you! Good team members with different skills are a necessity.  They can help with everything from preparing schedules and budgets, to making invites and posters, to welcoming in guests and doing the dirty work of cleaning up afterward. In other words, they can help you get things done. And if you can, get volunteers who you trust!  Make sure to keep team members and supervisors "up to speed" with your plans.  Collaboration can make your job easier. When you ask them to help, be as complete as possible from the get-go about the expectations for them and their level of involvement. If you aren't in a situation where finding volunteers is feasible, hire a crew! It all depends on the type of event you're organising. The venue may be able to provide you with one or you can go through a third-party staffing agency. All possible expenses, incomes, sponsors, and contingent expenses should be included. If you don't budget, you'll end up with a wad of receipts, an empty pocketbook, and no idea what the heck just happened. Be realistic from day one so no surprises...

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a serious conversation with your boyfriend will be hard, especially if you’re upset. To help you get through what you need to say, decide what you want to tell him in advance. Then, practice saying that out loud. This will help you during the actual talk. Try talking to a mirror or explaining it to a supportive friend. Call or text him to tell him you’re ready to talk about what happened. Invite him to meet you in a neutral location or somewhere you feel comfortable. Schedule a time when you’ll have plenty of time to discuss the situation and won’t feel rushed.  For example, you might ask him to meet you at your house or at a local coffee shop. You might text him, “I need to talk to you about what happened with Stacey. Can we meet up at the Good Beans Cafe at 1 p.m.?” You might suspect he’s cheating if he’s been pulling away from you or you’ve been hearing rumors. If this is the case, it’s best to ask him directly instead of making assumptions. Explain your suspicions and why you feel that way. Then, ask him if he’s actually cheating on you. You might say, “I’ve noticed that you haven’t kissed me in 2 weeks, and now I’m hearing rumors about you going on a date with Alex. Is it true that you cheated?” He probably wasn’t trying to hurt you when he cheated, but he needs to know the pain his actions caused. Explain how you feel about what happened and why it hurt you so much. Say as much as you need to say to feel better. You might say, “I feel so hurt and betrayed right now. I trusted you with my heart, and you broke it into a million pieces.” to his side of the story but don’t accept blame. You probably know that there are 2 sides to every story, and seeing things from your boyfriend’s perspective could help. Give him a chance to explain himself and try to understand his side. However, don’t let him try to blame you or excuse his behavior.  This gives your boyfriend a chance to tell you if he wants to save your relationship and why you should take him back. Additionally, it might help you understand that...

TL;DR in Russian:

Having a smaller closet means more room for seasonal and trending items.  Throw away old styles. Make space for new items by throwing away the clothes you don't wear. Be honest. If you haven't worn something in a year, you could probably get rid of it.  Throw away items that do not fit you anymore. We all have sentimental pieces of clothing. However, clothing clutter will only keep you from expanding your style. Keep a small collection of your favorite basic items, such as well-fitting jeans and t-shirts. These items are timeless. You can pair them with trendier items you buy. Small items, like jackets and shoes are a good way to spruce up your basics. Make sure you are keeping track of everything you own. This will force you to be honest about what you are actually wearing. It will also help as you continue to refresh your wardrobe.

TL;DR in Russian:

Уменьшите количество вещей в шкафу. Придерживайтесь основ. Систематизируйте предметы одежды.


Having a solid daily routine may help your dog to stop eliminating inside the house. Make sure that you feed your dog at the same times every day and take your dog outside at the same times every day. Your dog should be allowed to go outside to eliminate at least four times per day. If your dog’s feeding and outside times have become erratic, decide on a schedule that will work for you and stick to it. A sample schedule for feeding and taking your dog out might be something like:  6:00am: let Fido outside 7:00am: feed Fido breakfast 7:30am: let Fido outside 12:00pm: let Fido outside 5:00pm: take Fido for a walk 7:00pm: feed Fido dinner 7:30pm: let Fido outside In addition to keeping a steady routine for taking your dog outside, taking him to the same spot every time may also help you to housebreak your dog. Use an encouraging phrase such as “go potty” to let your dog know what you want him to do when you get to that spot. The repetition of going to the same place and hearing the same words will help your dog understand what you want from him. Remember to offer your dog lots of praise after he goes to the bathroom outside. Watching your dog for signs that he might be about to urinate or defecate in the house can help you to housebreak him. If your dog is prone to eliminating inside the house, find a way to keep him in your sight at all times. Monitoring your dog’s whereabouts will help you to prevent him from eliminating inside the house.  Try keeping your dog on a six foot long leash that is attached to you.  This will prevent him from going off to another room to eliminate and it will also help you to observe his behavior and determine when he needs to go.  If you cannot keep an eye on your dog during the day, you can use a crate or baby gate to confine your dog to a small area for short periods of time (less than 4 hours). As soon as you notice that your dog is getting ready to urinate or defecate, get his attention by clapping your hands together loudly. Do not yell at your dog or use physical punishment...

TL;DR in Russian:

Разработайте для собаки надлежащий режим. Побуждайте собаку на прогулках все время ходить в туалет на одном месте. Все время следите за своей собакой. Застав собаку за нежелательным действием, остановите ее громкими хлопками ладоней. Незамедлительно убирайте оплошности за собакой. Хвалите собаку за то, что она ходит в туалет на улице. Попросите соседа или друга выгуливать вашу собаку, если вы будете отсутствовать длительное время.


Having a solid light source is an essential part of taking any kind of photograph, and selfies are no different. If you try to take a selfie in a dimly-lit room or one with harsh fluorescent lighting, it won't turn out the way you want it to. Natural light is the most flattering kind, so try to take your selfie near a window or outdoors. Keep these factors in mind when you shoot:  Keep the sun or other light source in front of you, a bit above eye level, for the most flattering shot. The light will brighten and soften your features, rather than casting harsh shadows across your face. If it's off to the side or behind you, your features could appear shadowy or distorted. Consider using a thin curtain to diffuse sunlight or a single light source. It makes the light  softer and more flattering. It will give the impression of smoother, softer facial lines so that your smile appears more attractive. Natural light renders colors more faithfully than artificial light, but you can use artificial light to fill shadows. If you don't have the best lighting, most modern digital cameras have some automatic color correction to make up for it. Don't use your flash if you can help it. It'll create a forehead glare, distort your appearance and possibly give your selfie the redeye effect. Many cell phones have two cameras: one in the back, and one in the front. Instead of using the camera in the front to take selfies, use the one in the back. The back camera takes higher-resolution pictures than the front camera, which will end up taking a blurrier selfie. You'll have to turn the phone around, and you won't be able  to see your face as you take the picture, but it's worth the trouble to use the back camera. The picture will appear in reverse, your camera will be visible, and you're likely to end up with a strange glare. Plus, your selfie could appear distorted, since mirror glass doesn't always reflect back a perfectly accurate image. Stretch out your arm, use your wrist to point the camera toward your face, and snap away. It...

Having a strong support system is one of the primary factors for successful treatment of schizophrenia. A good support team may consist of mental health professionals, family members, and personal friends and peers who share the diagnosis.  Talk to trusted friends and family members about your symptoms. They may help you navigate mental health care systems to get the treatment you need. Many times, maintaining stable, consistent housing is difficult for people with schizophrenia. If staying with your family is an option during stressful times, consider allowing your family to care for you until your symptoms improve. Housing options, such as group homes or supported living apartments, support people with schizophrenia. The availability of such homes varies widely from state to state. Check with your local National Alliance for Mental Health (NAMI) chapter or other mental health professionals to learn more about these services. Having good, honest communication with a mental health professional will allow you to receive the best level of treatment they can provide. Being honest with your doctor about your symptoms will ensure that you're getting the right dosage of medication, neither too much nor too little.  You can always seek out a second opinion, if you feel that your doctor isn't responsive to your needs. Never discontinue medical treatment without having a back-up plan. Check in with your doctor regarding any questions you may have regarding treatment issues, medication side-effects, persistent symptoms, or other concerns. Your participation is essential towards most effective treatment of your symptoms. Treatment works best when you're working together with your treatment team. The stigma from schizophrenia can be more uncomfortable than the symptoms. In a peer support group, your experience is shared by other members. Attending a group for support has been shown to be one of the most effective ways to minimize the difficulties of living with schizophrenia and other mental illnesses.  Peer support...

TL;DR in Russian:

Честно поговорите с лечащим врачом. Постоянно поддерживайте связь с психиатром. Запишитесь в группу психологической поддержки.


Having a text conversation about your crush’s day or interests is a good way to show you want to know them better. Just don’t let the conversation drift into more mundane, generic topics, and don’t keep your crush waiting too long before you ask them out. The quicker you pop the question, the more likely you’ll have their full interest and get a good response. If you’re asking your crush to go on a specific date, focus the conversation on that. For example, if you want to take them to a movie, talk with them about a new release. When asking your crush on a date, include a kind comment explaining why you want to go out with them. This will make them feel good and open them up to the idea of a date. Some text ideas include:  “I really like talking with you. Would you like to grab coffee together sometime?” “I’ve been thinking recently, would you like to go see a movie with me?” “You seem really wonderful. Would you be interested in grabbing dinner?” Make sure your crush understands that you want to take them on a date, otherwise they may think you are just inviting them to go out with a group of friends. Use clear phrases like “Want to go out?” instead of vague one like “Want to hang?” If your crush says yes, follow up immediately to make the necessary plans. Look for a day and time that works for both of you, then figure out a place to meet. Have concrete plans in place before you end the text conversation. This will show your crush that you’re interested and prevent confusion down the road. Give them some space and, in a few weeks, talk with them again as just a friend. If your conversation goes well, the dating doors may still be open. In the meantime, make sure to take care of yourself by hanging out with friends, getting out of the house, and staying active.

TL;DR in Russian:

Полностью сконцентрируйтесь на своей цели. Пригласите ее на свидание, сделав комплимент. Будьте конкретны, приглашая девушку на свидание. Продумайте остальные детали свидания. Не переживайте, если девушка откажет вам.


Having a timeless sense of style is as simple as buying some new clothes and getting a good haircut. Becoming a timeless person, however, is another thing entirely — you'll need to attempt the difficult tasks of unfocusing your attention from the here and now and getting a broader perspective on life. To start, try to place less of an importance on the passage of time in the first place. Don't worry about growing old — trying to stay young forever or recapture past glory days will only date you. There are few things more awkward than someone who's aged out of a certain social group trying desperately to stay "cool" in the eyes of the younger members. If you're worried about growing up or aging, it can help to look at the benefits of these things, rather than just the scary and sad parts. For instance, while adults may sometimes fall out of touch with old friends, they also have lots of opportunities to make new ones while devoting their energy to a fulfilling career. Older people also usually have the advantage of maturity and experience over younger people, which can make things that used to seem like a big deal (for instance, peer pressure) seem like no big deal at all. A timeless person has a self-identity that doesn't change depending on what's currently popular. Don't make any conscious choices to redefine yourself based on what other people think. Instead, any change in the way you see yourself should come about naturally and effortlessly over time. Don't look down on yourself if you don't conform exactly to what's popular today. Popularity is fleeting and can change at a moment's notice — the sense of peace you get from being true to yourself, on the other hand, lasts forever. Beware: living your life to be trendy at all costs without considering your true feelings can cause significant problems in the long run: for instance, you may waste time and money trying to get a hold of the latest clothes and consumer goods, you may lose sight of who you truly "are" as a person and suffer identity confusion,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не бойтесь становиться старше. Оставайтесь верны себе, а не временным модным тенденциям. Не сравнивайте себя с другими. Цените хорошие вещи из прошлого. Выбирайте себе вневременные примеры для подражания.


Having a tooth removed can be a painful procedure. Try an NSAID like ibuprofen or naproxen sodium for pain. Acetaminophen is also okay. Skip aspirin, as it could make the bleeding worse. Taking vitamin C may also help the healing process. Don't rinse your mouth for the first 24 hours. You can eat and drink lukewarm food, though not in the area where you removed the tooth. Make sure you're eating on the other side. You need to leave the hole alone as much as possible. Alcohol may seem logical since it can help you avoid the pain. However, it can keep the wound from healing properly. In addition, it can make it bleed more, which you definitely don't want. You will need to brush your teeth, but you should wait a day. When you do brush your teeth, be especially gentle around the extraction site. You don't want to pull up the clot accidentally. It can also help to rinse with saltwater after the first 24 hours, which can remove some bacteria. Dissolve a teaspoon of salt in a glass of water. Swish it around in your mouth for 20 to 30 seconds, particularly near the clot, and then spit it out.

TL;DR in Russian:

Принимайте назначенные медицинские препараты. В течение 24 часов после операции будьте особенно аккуратны. На протяжении 24 часов после операции не пейте алкогольных напитков. Почистите зубы через 24 часа после операции. Полощите полость рта раствором соли.


Having a variety of light sources creates a warm, welcoming feeling in your room. If you only have one light source in your room, consider adding something new. You can experiment with placing them in different places until you get that “just right” feeling. Here are a few options to explore: Have at least one table lamp and a floor lamp with a dimmer switch so you can adjust the brightness according to need. Reading lights next to your bed are not only practical items but add to the overall ambience of your room. If you are concerned about having an open flame in your room, there are many different types of flameless (battery operated) candles that are safer than regular candles. You may need extra money to hire an electrician to do the work for you, but the results will be really beautiful. You can find different styles of string lighting, so choose one that looks nice in your space. You can hang it over your bed, in your curtains, or anywhere else you'd like. It can create a dreamy or romantic look in your room. Plus, the low light output is very calming. You can find string lights online or in some department stores. If you have an extra string of Christmas lights, you can use those!

TL;DR in Russian:

Поэкспериментируйте с различными типами освещения. Попробуйте использовать настольные лампы и торшеры. Купите свечи различной длины и расставьте их по комнате. Обратитесь к профессиональным электрикам для установки на потолке висячих люстр или поворотных светильников. Повесьте световые гирлянды, чтобы создать романтический или успокаивающий эффект.


Having a variety of sizes will give you a pumpkin family! Make sure they're clean if you had them laying around the house. You want them very orange to simulate pumpkins. If you don't have craft paper, use scrapbook paper, card, or wrapping paper. Anything that's bendy and colorful will work. Make arched evil eyebrows, a handlebar mustache, surprised eyes, or any detail that you'd like your pumpkin pots to have. The simpler your face, the more it will look like a jack-o-lantern. Give it a toothy grin, a triangular nose, and triangular eyes to make it look more pumpkin-esque. You only need a layer on the side you'll place the face for right now. Use a sponge brush or paint brush for best results. A thin, but even layer is ideal. Press them firmly into place. Then, apply a thin layer of the sticky stuff all over the pot, effectively weather-proofing it. When we say stick, we mean stick. Go outside under a tree and find a stick to fit through the bottom of your terra cotta pot. And there it is -- a pumpkin that won't rot in a week's time!

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите несколько терракотовых горшков. Вырежьте части рожицы из желтой упаковочной бумаги. . Приклейте частички рожицы к горшку, вверх дном. Вставьте палочку в отверстие на дне.


Having a written record of the negative effects of alcohol and tobacco will serve as a constant reminder of why you have chosen to quit. Keep it in a place you can reference it easily.  Reflect on any decreased physical or mental health as a result of tobacco and alcohol. Have you gained weight or decreased fitness as a result of using? Do you become angry without alcohol, or anxious without tobacco? Many people choose to quit addictions because they feel sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, and engaging the addiction is more draining than the positive effects of the substance.  Consider how tobacco and alcohol interfere with your relationships and social life. Think of financial costs alcohol and tobacco cost you. Use a notebook to record the times throughout the day you smoke or drink alcohol. Record what feelings or situations preceded using alcohol and tobacco. Avoid situations that may trigger you in the future.  A trigger could be getting into an argument with your family or something not going well at work. Because alcohol and nicotine are highly correlated substances, one can trigger the other. For example, if you begin drinking, you may want to have a cigarette. Be clear on whether you want to stop altogether or slowly taper your use. While some may want to quit for social or health reasons, others may want to quit due to medical reasons or because they have an addiction. Reflect on your reasons and then choose your goals. If you are an alcoholic, it is best to cut alcohol out altogether and not taper it down.  People who smoke have a much harder time quitting alcohol and also tend to relapse more than people who do not smoke. Set goals that include concurrently quitting both nicotine and alcohol together. Write down a date for each goal to solidify the commitment.

TL;DR in Russian:

Запишите, как табак и алкоголь влияют на вас. Найдите свои триггеры. Установите цели.


Having an agent isn't strictly necessary to land roles, but an agent’s sole job is to help you find work, and this can facilitate you finding your first few gigs. Check online to see if there are agents in your area taking on new clients. Just be careful about the agency you join. Agents make money when they find gigs for clients, so don’t accept help from someone who wants a membership fee. Extras are the background actors in movies, so they don’t usually have speaking parts. However, it’s sometimes a paying gig and it can get you exposure, and there are famous actors out there who were discovered while working as extras. To find work as an extra, check publications, casting calls, newspapers, and the internet to see if there are any nearby movies being filmed that require help. If you live in a smaller town rather than a major movie production hub, there's always a chance that your city will be chosen as the filming location for a big movie. Otherwise, look for art houses, colleges, and other production studios nearby that might require actors from time to time, and audition any time there's an opportunity.  To find out about possible roles, check local and community papers, bulletins, theaters, and colleges.  If a large production does happen to be filming in your city, contact the casting company to ask about auditions for parts or extras. Auditions are tough and nerve-racking, but unless you're a big-name actor, it’s usually the only way you'll get a part. Like everything, auditions take practice, and the more you do, the easier it will be to make a good impression when you're auditioning for bigger roles.  Audition for any role you can, no matter how small the part or how low-budget the film. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want the part—audition practice is invaluable, and the role could end up being a good opportunity. When you go for the audition be prepared by knowing your lines, scenes, the basic storyline, and the character you're playing. When you're first getting started in the acting industry...

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите агента. Снимайтесь в массовке. Находите информацию о съемках фильмов в вашем регионе. Приходите на все пробы. Принимайте все предлагаемые роли.


Having an anvil will allow you to apply your enchantment book to an item. To craft an anvil, you will need the following:   Three iron blocks - Each iron block requires nine iron bars, for a total of twenty-seven iron bars needed.  Four iron bars - These bars bring the iron total to thirty-one. You can create iron bars by adding iron ore, which is the grey stone with orange-brown spots, into a furnace that has coal in it. As it did earlier, the crafting table will open to a three-by-three grid. To do so, you'll place the three iron blocks in the top row of the crafting table grid, three of the four iron bars along the bottom row of the grid, and the final iron bar in the center of the grid, then select the anvil icon.  On the PE version of Minecraft, you'll tap the black anvil icon on the left side of the screen. On the console version of Minecraft, you'll select the anvil icon in the "Structures" tab. You're now ready to craft an enchanted item. It will open to three boxes. You can place it in either the far-left box or the middle box here. For example, you might add a sword. It goes in either the far-left box or the middle box. This is the box on the far-right side of the anvil's menu. Doing so will add your enchanted item to your inventory.

TL;DR in Russian:

Having at least a bachelor's degree is a requirement. This is not a requirement for the job, but rather for the work visa. Without a work visa (or a spouse visa if you are married to a Japanese citizen) you cannot legally work in Japan. This is an immigration law. Without a bachelor's degree, Japan will not issue you a work visa. You don't want to break the law in Japan. If you are caught working without a visa you will be detained and deported. Your bachelor's degree doesn't need to be in English or teaching, but it might be more useful. Any bachelor's degree will do. If you do want to work in Japan then you will need a lot of money. It is recommended to bring at least $2,000 with you to help you get started before you get your first paycheck. In addition, you will need to buy suits for your job. Most schools will require you to wear a suit, but some let you take off the suit jacket in the classroom, especially during summer time. You should have at least 3 nice suits. Also, you will have to pay for your plane tickets. Depending on your interview location, you may need to fly there (even within your own country). You also need to pay for your own flight to Japan. In other words, no arrests. The government will not issue a visa to someone who has committed a crime. Small crimes several years ago may be overlooked, but anything in the past 5 years is almost a guarantee than your visa will be denied.

TL;DR in Russian:

Получите диплом бакалавра. Начните копить деньги. Вам нужно чистое прошлое.


Having children requires you and your spouse to be in good physical condition. Take some time to consider how healthy you are and what you can do to improve on your health before trying to become pregnant. For example, if you smoke or your partner smokes, then take steps to quit smoking. If you and your partner are overweight, then take steps to lose weight. Try to pinpoint your health challenges and identify ways that you can improve your health. Before you expand your family, you and your partner should take time to work out any challenges in your relationship. Having children can put a strain on both of you and if you have issues, then it is in your future child’s best interest to try to find a solutions to these issues. For example, if you tend to argue now and then about minor things, then work on improving your communication with your partner. If your issues are larger than small arguments now and then, you may want to consider marriage counseling to help you resolve problems before trying to have a child. Raising a child is expensive, so it is important to consider your ability to provide things like a crib, clothing, food, and toys. If you are struggling with your finances, then you may want to take some time to improve your situation and save a bit of money before you start trying for a  baby. Raising a child also requires lots of teamwork between you and your spouse, so you should be on the same page regarding how you will raise your child. Talk about the values that you and your spouse share and how you can overcome disagreements about values. For example, do you and your spouse share the same ideas about how to discipline your child? Can you agree on what moral values to instill in your child? Do either of you have a strong religious preference? Longer relationships tend to have more stability and this is important for your future child. Consider how long you and your spouse have been together and if your relationship is stable enough for a child. It is a good idea to wait until you have been...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте о своем здоровье. Оцените прочность ваших отношений. Оцените свои финансовые возможности. Сравните свои взгляды на воспитание детей. Подумайте, как давно вы вместе.


Having clean feet will go a long way to ensuring that your Rainbow sandals stay clean and odor-free. Keep a bar of deodorizing soap in the shower, and use a washcloth to vigorously scrub your feet. Not only will this remove dirt and grime that can stain your sandals, but it will also slough off the dead skin cells that contribute to smelly shoes. When you get out of the shower, don’t stop drying yourself off when you get to your ankles. Do a thorough job of toweling off your feet, including between your toes, to discourage any fungi from setting up shop. If you have trouble with foot fungus, you may want to consider using a daily foot powder. This is a good idea if you have particularly sweaty feet. While foot powders absorb sweat, antiperspirants actually stop your feet from sweating to begin with. If you find yourself constantly sweating into your sandals, spraying some on in the morning could go a long way to keeping them cleaner. Odor-causing fungus thrives in damp, dark areas, like the soles of your shoes. Try to spend some time every day barefoot, ideally outdoors, with your feet up and the sun shining on them. Just make sure you give your feet a good rinsing and drying off if they get dirty.

TL;DR in Russian:

Тщательно вымойте ноги. Хорошо просушите ноги. Воспользуйтесь антиперспирантом для ног. Дайте вашим стопам немного солнца.


Having clear objectives for your course will help you know exactly what to teach, and will help your students realize what they should be learning. Objectives are meant to give you a way of measuring whether you and the course have achieved what you need to. Think about:  Who are your students? What curricular needs do they and/or your department have? What would you like students to have achieved by the end of the course? Write out a set of learning goals for your course (using action verbs) and include it as one of the first sections on your syllabus. You don’t need to have a great number of learning goals for your course; including a few well-thought out goals is best. You don’t have to only teach what is included in your stated goals, but they will serve as a guide. Some examples of learning goals used in actual courses are:  Demonstrate the ability to read, evaluate and interpret general economic information. Apply research methods in psychology, including design, data analysis, and interpretation to a research project. Communicate effectively in an oral presentation. Formulate a well-organized argument supported by evidence. Identify major figures and ideas in peace movements from around the world. Once you have developed a set of learning goals, you will want to make sure your students are meeting them. Typically, you will determine this based on how students perform on the assignments you provide, but there are other options as well. You will want to write a more or less detailed description of assignments/assessment tools to include in your syllabus. Some typical ways of assessing learning include:  Quizzes and exams Learning activities (fill in the blank, practice equations, etc.) Presentations Writing assignments (essays, research papers, etc.) Portfolios that gather and introduce a collection of finished work Self-reflective exercises (ask students to describe what they have learned from the course) In order to determine how a student is performing on any given assignment, you'll want a rubric....

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите цели учебного курса. Учебная программа должна включать изложение задач. Подумайте, как вы будете оценивать успешность. Разработайте категории оценки заданий. Составьте организационные правила курса. Составьте черновой график занятий. Напишите черновой вариант программы.


Having clear-cut, well-defined goals increases the chances of success in almost any endeavor. When it comes to reading, you may not be aware of your goals going into the book. However, you can easily create your own goals as you go along.  If you're reading a book for class, you probably have a set number of pages or chapters to get through. This can help you have a clear end in sight. If you're reading for pleasure and find yourself struggling, try setting daily reading goals for yourself. You can choose a set number of pages or chapters, and keep yourself motivated by reminding yourself you're only reading a fraction of the book that day. Challenge yourself to learn something from the text. You can learn a great deal from reading, whether it's fiction, nonfiction, or historical texts - even the boring ones. If a book is hard to get through, it may seem even more daunting to look at the book as a single work of literature spanning hundreds of pages. Instead of trying to marathon the book from cover to cover, try breaking it up into smaller sections - say, a few chapters every day. As you work your way through the day's section(s), try taking breaks between chapters so you can refresh your mind and rest your eyes before you continue.  Take breaks along the way to help you stay focused. However, make sure you decide beforehand how many breaks you'll take and how often. Don't take breaks whenever you feel like it. Challenge yourself to get through a set reading goal (like the end of a long chapter, or after completing two relatively short chapters). Put your bookmark at the end of that group of chapters. That way you'll be able to see where the end point is as you turn each page, and you'll be more motivated to make it all the way to your resting point. A boring book may tempt you to reach for your cellphone, check your social media, or flip on the television. However, breaking your focus like this will only make it more difficult to get through the book. Instead of giving in to temptation, force yourself to...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поставьте четко сформулированные цели для чтения. Разделите чтение на удобные для вас отрезки. Сократите количество отвлекающих факторов или устраните их. Принимайтесь за текст с ясной головой.


Having company can make a long car ride into a memorable bonding experience. You can talk to your friends, play games with them, sing songs and even have deep and heart-felt conversations with them on the road.  If you're driving, you can divide the drive into shifts and delegate shifts to friends or family members who can drive. Driving for shorter time periods can prevent accidents from happening if you get tired and it can make the whole journey go faster and smoother. Driving alone might mean you will have to stop frequently to rest. Choose your companions wisely. A long drive can be fun with the right kind of people, while it can be torturous with the wrong kind. Choose reliable friends who will be willing to help you out during a long drive. Check with your other companions, especially if you're travelling with family or parents, if inviting others to the trip is okay. It's very important every gets along for the whole ride. Bring CDs, upload music onto your music device, and create a playlist of songs. Choose:  Songs you can sing along to. Belting out notes can make listening to music into a performance.

If you're driving, you'll probably be tired and you don't want to lose control of the wheel. Choose upbeat songs to keep you awake and feeling fresh. A lot of songs. If the ride is long, running out of songs and having to replay them can make music become boring. You can calculate how long the ride will be and try to bring enough songs to last the ride. You can find many interesting books or podcasts to listen to while on the road. This is helpful if you'd like to read in the car but you're the one driving or you easily get carsick doing so.  There are a variety of genres of podcasts to listen to. Some podcasts are comedic, some are creative, and some are educational. They can last anywhere from 5 minutes to 2 hours long.

Having concrete examples of your work to show prospective employers lends you credibility and supports the impression that you are someone with knowledge and experience.  Keep records of any events you helped to plan.  Hold on to photographs, sample invitations and professional references from clients and vendors attesting to your reliability and expertise.  Put these in a professional-looking binder or case.  If possible, scan them and have them available to send to prospective employers via email. Prepare a professional resume on which you include your experience and education. Be sure to list volunteer assignments and professional and student organizations you are a part of. Write an individualized cover letter for each job opening.  There is no such thing as a "one-size-fits-all" cover letter.  Customize you letter in a way that addresses the specific needs of the organization and how you can meet them. Tell everyone you know that you're looking for work and ask them to pass on any leads.  You never know who someone else might know or what they might hear about a job opening.  Create a LinkedIn account.  This social media site allows you to set up an account where you can post your resume, join industry groups and network with others in your field. Keep track of classmates. If someone who was in your program lands a job, ask them how they did it and if there are more openings available at their new place of employment. Have business cards made and keep them with you at all times.  Business cards are relatively inexpensive and good to have on hand because you never know where or when you might run in to someone who can help you find a job. So much job hunting is done online these days, that it's essential that you visit popular job sites.  Also, certain professional organizations or specialty sites list jobs postings in the event management field, which allows you to use to focus your job-hunting efforts.
