While you may plan to live in a public park or state forest, understand that it may be illegal to live in these areas. Make sure that there are no rules about sleeping in public or forbidding "vagrancy." In state and national parks, check to see if you need a camping license.  You can research laws on a city or state website or by visiting a county law library. State and national park guidelines are usually listed on their website. Never trespass on somebody else's land. You could be fined or arrested. Location is everything. You should find a safe area where you can set up your shelter without being disturbed. If you are in a city or urban area, you might be limited in where you can set up, but in the wilderness, you just have to find a secure location.  If you are living in the wilderness, you should find a place that is far away from any potential hazards (such as cliffs, rockfalls, avalanches, or flooding). Find a location that is close to fresh water and to places where you can forage for materials.  In a town, you may be able to set up a shelter under a bridge, at the beach or park, or just outside city limits. While you can always sleep under the stars, you should have some sort of shelter to protect yourself from wild animals, bad weather, or wind. You can easily make your own shelter out of local materials or from a tarp.   A tent is the easiest and most convenient form of shelter. If you don’t have a tent, you can hang a tarp between two trees for a similar effect. If you are living in a hot, dry climate, you might build a ramada. This is a roof suspended on poles without walls. If you are living in snowy conditions, try a snow cave or an igloo. A quinzhee is also an option. This is a dome made out of snow with a hollow inside. Use whatever materials you have on hand for the shelter. If you don't have a tarp, for example, you can use garbage bags or an old raincoat. A good sleeping bag will insulate you during cold or nasty weather, and it provides a certain degree of comfort as well. Try to invest...

Изучите местные законы. Выберите подходящее место. Соорудите укрытие Достаньте спальный мешок.


While you may sometimes think that you are innocently expressing your opinion, understand that other people might take it as forceful or judgmental advice. It can be helpful to know the difference between expressing an opinion and being too opinionated so that you can avoid these situations.  An opinion is merely a belief or idea that is based on preference instead of hard fact. An example of an opinion is "I'm not a fan of that television show. I don't think it is very funny." An opinionated person is very rigid about their opinions. Instead of expressing their preferences, they state their personal opinions as facts. They often do not allow others to express dissimilar opinions or ideas. They might become critical or judgmental. For example, an opinionated person might say, "That TV show is so stupid. I can't imagine why anyone would want to watch it. The humor is so dumb. It must only appeal to a caveman." Think about whether you want to help the person you have a desire to offer unsolicited advice. Although your motivation may be well intentioned, you should know that even advice coming from an altruistic place usually backfires. If you offer unsolicited advice for altruistic reasons, people may become defensive in order to maintain their personal freedom and life choices. For example, you may be worried about the health of a friend who smokes cigarettes. If you start offering them unsolicited advice about how to stop smoking, they may get defensive of their lifestyle. It won’t help that your advice is coming from a good place, since you are failing to respect their lifestyle and personal choices. If you are really excited about a new life hack or solution to something in your life, you may have a desire to share it with others. However, you should keep in mind that your friends, colleagues and family members may need to come up with their own solutions to life problems. It is probably better to keep your advice to yourself, unless they ask for it explicitly. It can be annoying to hear about the same...

TL;DR in Russian:

Имейте собственное мнение, но не будьте самоуверенны. Оцените альтруистичность своих намерений. Сдерживайтесь в случае эмоционального возбуждения. Не давайте советов, если вы раздражены. Не поучайте и не читайте нотаций.


While you may think you have all the evidence you need to believe someone has committed a crime, your understanding of the events may be wrong. Don't make a citizen's arrest if you overhear someone talking about robbing a bank. If you're wrong, you may be at fault. Call the police instead. Always remember, an improper citizen's arrest can result in prosecution for crimes like kidnapping. For example, just because you see a crowd of people chasing a suspect or a victim asking for help, doesn't necessarily mean you have grounds to arrest someone. The crime must have already happened in order for you to legally make an arrest. Don't arrest someone if the crime hasn't yet been committed. Call the police instead. Even the police are not allowed to use excessive force when taking a suspect into custody, so you, as a private citizen, should be especially careful about this. Otherwise, you may be charged with battery, even if the suspect you apprehend is guilty of a crime. The use of deadly force is usually not allowed unless the perpetrator is attacking you or someone else. Don't use a weapon against the perpetrator when you can use your own strength. For example, you can tackle someone to the ground rather than hitting him or her. As a private citizen, it's not your job to make arrests. If it is at all possible, you should always leave policing to those who have a legal authority to do so--the police. Otherwise, your actions might put you, the alleged perpetrator and the general public, at risk. Your actions may also be viewed as vigilantism, which is not legally protected action if you step beyond the authority explicitly granted to citizens by the law. Once you have detained someone, you are responsible for what happens to the person while he or she is under your control. Make sure they are not in the road, where they could be hit by a car, and make sure they are protected from onlookers who might try to attack them.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не производите арест, если вы не присутствовали при совершении преступления. Не арестовывайте человека, который, по вашему мнению, собирается совершить преступление. Избегайте чрезмерного применения силы. Не производите гражданский арест, если вы можете просто позвонить в полицию. Позаботьтесь о безопасности задержанного преступника.


While you may think you need to lift everyday to build up your muscles, you really need to only lift 2 or 3 times a week for 30 minutes each time. In fact, the vegan diet may better sustain this type of workout method, rather than a long daily workout, as it allows more time for recovery. Don't work the same body parts everyday. Pick a day for each group, so that you are slowing building up each set. For instance, you could work on your front upper body one day, your back and buttocks the next workout, and you lower half at your next workout. Another strategy would be to do a full-body workout 3x/week so that all muscle groups are being hit 3x/week versus 1x/week. This is helpful if you are following a vegan diet because muscle retention/building is so important to overall health.  One exercise you could try for your front upper body is the barbell bench press. Lay down with your back to a bench. Lift the barbell up over your body with your arms almost locked. Have someone spot for you if you haven't done this exercise before. Lower the bar towards your chest, and then hold it for a brief second. Extend your arms back up, lifting the bar. Breathe in as you bring it back down, and breath out as you push it back up. Repeat 6 to 8 times until you begin to feel the strain, then set the bar up to take a short break.  For your back and biceps, try a wide-grip lat pulldown. Once sitting on the bench, make sure your knees are up against the knee bar. Grab the bar from above. Push your chest out, and lean back a little. Pull the bar down using only your arms. Breathe out as you slowly bring the bar back up. Breathe in as you pull it back down. Repeat until you feel it in your muscles, and then take a break.  For your legs, use a barbell squat. With the barbell at the correct height on a rack, center the bar on the back of your neck across your shoulders. Move away from the rack with the barbell on your shoulders with your feet shoulder-width apart. Squat down with the barbell still on your shoulders, as if you are...

While you may want to focus on learning how to have healthy relationships with other people, learning about yourself can actually help you achieve this goal. It is important that you take the time to get to know who you are and what makes you tick, your likes and dislikes, and simply how you experience the world so that you can relate to others in a healthy way. For instance, being aware of things that set you off can keep you from overreacting. Perhaps you felt that your father didn't listen to you when you tried to talk to him, and now you know that you tend to lose your cool when you someone doesn't answer your question right away. If you are aware of this tendency, you can stop yourself before you snap at the person, reminding yourself, "I'm getting upset because this reminds me of Dad. Susan may be formulating a response, or she simply may not have heard me. There is no need to overreact." Then you avoid blowing up at Susan and possibly damaging your relationship with her. Journaling is a way to let our inner self emerge. It allows us to facilitate dialogue between our ideal self-image and our present self. It can also act as a quiet, centering activity where we confess to page those things we are not ready to speak about. Below are some prompts that can help trigger introspection:  Who am I? What do I love? What would you tell your older self? The purpose of writing a timeline is to take stock of your goals and your progress toward them. This can be helpful, both as a tool of validation for how far you've come, and a motivator to keep you striving toward the next milestone. Some things to remember as you are constructing your timeline:  Decide where it will begin and end. It doesn't have to start with birth. Make a preliminary list of events that need to be included. This should be based on what you perceive as meaningful and valuable. Include a title. Come up with something more detailed than, “My life.” The title should both guide how the timeline is read and reflect the values inherent in it's...

TL;DR in Russian:

Проследите, как самоанализ помогает развивать отношения с другими. Ведите дневник Составьте временной график. Стремитесь к самореализации.


While you may wish that you never had to face challenges, the reality is that challenges are simply a part of life.  Be mindful of how each person is facing some sort of obstacle in their lives currently.  You are not the only one who is facing difficult challenges.  Find challenges as a way to get more connected with other people.  Through common struggles, you may feel greater bonds. Try to find meaning and value in the challenges that you have faced and are facing now.  Often long after you've faced something difficult, you can find value and purpose in this experience.  For example, let's say you had a set-back and failed an exam.  After that, maybe you tried even harder to do well in the class.  It changed your thinking about how to approach studying. Resilience helps to give you strength.  It motivates you to keep going and not give up.  Challenges in life, work, and relationships may make you want to give in and give up.  Try to stay strong and remember your strengths.  Write down three strengths in your personality, work, and life that make you resilient.  Write a few sentences that are encouraging and self-affirming about your strengths. Find a role model that can help you focus on the positives and build up your motivation to keep going.  Reach out to friends, family, or mentors that have faces bigger hurdles and overcame them.  They are likely to have wisdom. When you face a big challenge, you may get bogged down by all the things in your way.  You may feel overwhelmed by how seemingly insurmountable the situation may feel.  Try to break down the big picture into smaller and more manageable steps.  Consider creating a timeline for each the small steps that can eventually lead to the big steps.  For example, let's say you want to apply for college, but aren't sure about all the things you need to do in order to get this done.  Create a checklist of all the things you need to send or have completed for your application.  Then create a timeline for how and when to accomplish each task. Appreciate each...

While you might be eager to get that first kiss, it's best to pick a time and location that will feel comfortable. Wait until you're alone with the person you want to kiss. Then, talk to them to make sure they're feeling comfortable and in a good mood.  For instance, it's a bad idea to kiss someone when they're in the middle of doing something or while they're upset. A good setting for your first kiss might be during a date or at a school dance. to set the mood for kissing. Smile at them and keep your arms open and at your sides so you don't seem closed off.

Watch how they're acting to see if they're flirting back. If they're looking into your eyes, smiling, keeping their body open, and talking a lot, then they're likely flirting with you. However, if you notice them pulling away, folding their arms, or looking down a lot, slow down and give them some space. No one wants to kiss dry, cracked lips. Be sure to slather on lip balm to keep your lips soft and kissable. Choose an unscented flavor because your date might not like scents.  Sticky lip gloss is often a turn off because it has a weird texture. Just use regular lip balm. If you normally wear lipstick, it's okay to wear it when you kiss someone.

Carry a pack of mints or gum with you so you can freshen your breath as needed.

While you might be tempted to completely overhaul your lifestyle, it is not necessary to make big changes to start living in the moment. Start by incorporating new habits one at a time. Once you feel like you have mastered a habit, add something else.  For example, instead of trying to meditate for 20 minutes per day right away, start by trying to meditate for three minutes per day. Then, increase your time as you become more comfortable with meditation.  Walk to work with your phone in your pocket. Do not text or talk on the phone unless it is an emergency. Learning to live in the moment can also be a part of your daily routine. You can incorporate mindfulness into your daily routine by deliberately noticing the sensory details of something that you are doing. Focus on the sight, sound, smell, and feel of your daily activities. For example, the next time that you brush your teeth, notice the smell of your toothpaste, the sound of the brush against your teeth, and the way that it feels. It is normal for your mind to wander, but in order to live in the moment, you need to keep your mind focused on the present. When you notice that your mind is wandering, use gentle redirection to focus on the present again. Acknowledge that your mind is wandering without judging yourself for doing so. Don't get upset at yourself if your mind wanders. It is normal for your mind to wander sometimes. Just accept that you took a little mental vacation and return your focus to the present. It may be difficult to remember to be mindful when you are very busy. A mindfulness cue, such as a string tied around your wrist, a pen mark on your hand, or a coin in your shoe can help you to remember to be mindful. When you notice the cue, make sure that you take a moment to stop and notice your surroundings.  You can also use something more external like making a cup of tea, looking in the mirror, or removing your shoes after work as your cue.  After a while, you may begin to ignore the cue because you are used to it. If this happens, change...

While you might have strong feelings for this person, sometimes two people are just not compatible. If your relationship is toxic, you need to move on rather than trying to win back your ex. Some signs that your relationship is troubled beyond repair include:  abuse of any kind. If your ex has ever laid a hand on you to hurt you, or coerced you to have sex or do other things you did not feel comfortable doing, then he or she was abusive and you should not try to win that person back.  a lack of respect on either side. If you or your ex call each other names, belittle each other's accomplishments, or say disparaging things about one another to your family or friends, then there is no respect in that relationship. These are all features of an emotionally abusive relationship. Find someone who shows you the respect you deserve, and commit to treating him or her with respect as well. a history of unfaithfulness.

If someone you know and trust has a bad feeling about your relationship, you should take that as an indication that there could be trouble. If you know that a particular friend or family member dislikes your ex, ask to sit down and discuss why. Find out if it is based on how the ex treats you or others, knowledge your friend may have that you don't, or other evidence that might be meaningful. .

Обратите внимание на признаки, которые покажут бессмысленность восстановления отношений. Прислушайтесь к мнению друзей и членов семьи. Сделайте все возможное, чтобы пережить разрыв отношений


While you might not be able to avoid your ex entirely (like if you go to school with him or have the same friend group as her), you can--and should--minimize the amount of time you spend in contact with him or her. Don’t send your ex passive aggressive texts or call you ex crying. Absolutely do not drunk dial your ex one night. Doing these things will just make you feel worse. Instead, try to avoid seeing or contacting your ex as best you can. If you do have to see your ex, such as if you are in the same class, don’t give into your desire to run up to him and slap him in the face, beg her to come back to you, or simply scream “why?????” Instead, collect yourself and either ignore your ex, or give them a quick greeting without any further interaction. Do not let your ex see that they are putting you in any sort of turmoil. Be it in real life or on social media sites, its time to ‘block’ your ex. Ask your friends not to tell you if they saw your ex or heard something about him/her. Remove your ex from your Facebook news feed (or unfriend him/her entirely). While this may be hard to do, ultimately it will be for the best. If you share a friend group with your ex, try to avoid hanging out with him/her as much as possible. Hang out with your friends in smaller groups, or suggest a strictly girls or guys day. However, do not ask your friends to stop being friends with your ex.

While you might not think of them as values, you likely have a few things that you care about most in your life, like your family and friends. Take 5-10 minutes to think about what you believe is important in life and write these things down. Try to think of at least 5 things. For instance, you might write, “My family, being creative, helping others, being kind to animals, and learning new things.” When you’re doing something that’s important to you, it’s easy to lose yourself in the moment. Think about the times in your life when you’ve felt this way. Keep in mind that these experiences don't need to be "happy" to be engaging and enlivening. Then, ask yourself what made the experience fulfilling to figure out which value it might reflect.  You could write, “When I helped my friend Amy after her accident,” “When I won a service award at school,” and “When I fostered a litter of kittens.” Next, examine why you felt alive while helping your friend Amy. You may have enjoyed feeling helpful, but you might also realize that you had to get creative in finding activities you could do together during her recovery, which felt exciting. This activity lets you look back on your life to decide how you want to live. Picture yourself celebrating 8 decades on Earth and all that you’ve accomplished. Then, decide what this might suggest about your values in life. Ask yourself these questions:  Who is at my party? What do people love about me? How have I impacted people’s lives? What have I accomplished in life? What do your answers to the previous questions say about your values? First, identify 2 or 3 people who you admire, such as family members, friends, leaders, celebrities, or fictional characters. Then, figure out what you admire about them, such as their accomplishments or talents. Next, decide what values they might reflect from your perspective. These are likely personal values that you hold. For example, you might admire Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. for his courage, commitment to standing up for what is right,...

While you probably don't need to get into blackjack territory, statistically speaking, it's good to learn a little bit about your probability of landing on particular spaces, rolling particular numbers, and the likelihood of landing on a given property.  With the most possibilities of dice combinations, 7 is the most common roll on any given turn, and 2 and 12 are the least probable.  Most of the time, it takes 5 or 6 dice rolls to circle the board once. Because 28 of the 40 spaces are property spaces, you will likely land on four of those 28 property spaces. You've got a 17% chance of rolling doubles on any given roll. You will likely roll a pair of doubles one out of every six rolls. During the average circuit around the board, you will maybe roll doubles once. Mediterranean Avenue and Baltic Avenue are the least-landed-upon properties, while the orange properties (St. James Place, NY Avenue, and Tennessee Ave.) are the most, due to their proximity to Jail, making them the most lucrative monopoly in the game. Acquiring the orange monopoly gives you a very high probability of winning. The single square most landed-upon in the game is Jail, while the single property most landed-upon is Illinois Ave, followed by the B&O Railroad. A hotel on Illinois gives you the most income for a single space, after a hotel on Boardwalk. It is a good idea to keep track of the cards that you and your opponents play during the game so you can anticipate what you might draw if you land on a Chance or Community Chest space. Spend some time with the cards before you play to learn what sorts of outcomes might be thrust upon you. Each standard monopoly set includes:   Sixteen Chance cards. The odds are high that a chance card will move you to another place, since ten out of sixteen chance cards require you to do so. Additionally, there are two rewards cards which give you money, two penalty cards which take money away, a card that takes away money from building owners and one get out of jail free card.  Sixteen Community Chest...

While you probably won’t be able to remove all of the wrinkles, you may be able to work out some of the creases and folds just by running your hand over it. It’s important to be gentle, though, because you may rip the paper if you use too much force. The goal is to flatten it, so it’s as smooth as possible. Your hand may not be able to smooth all of the wrinkles from the paper, but a significant weight can often press out the creases and folds. Look for items around the house that are fairly heavy, such as thick books, pots and pans, or even bricks. Choose objects that are as large or larger than the paper to ensure that the entire surface is covered. You don’t necessarily need one extremely heavy object. Try stacking several smaller objects on top of one another to create a significant weight. You’ll want to set the page on a flat surface, and make sure that it is as smooth as possible before setting your objects on top. Check that the entire sheet of paper is covered, so all of the wrinkles can be smoothed. If your heavy object isn’t large enough to cover the paper, place two or more side by side to ensure that the full surface is weighted down. Depending on the items that you’re using as weights, it may be a good idea to throw a towel over the paper before placing the objects on top to prevent it from getting dirty. It takes time for the weight of your objects to press out the wrinkles, so you need to let them sit for a while. The amount of time necessary depends on how wrinkled the paper is and how heavy the objects on top are, but the longer you let it sit, the better. Typically, you’ll want to wait at least 24 hours. In most cases, using weight alone isn’t enough to completely smooth all of the wrinkles out of a sheet of paper. However, it can help get rid of some of the creases before you move onto one of the other methods.

TL;DR in Russian:

Разгладьте бумагу руками. Найдите несколько тяжелых предметов. Прижмите бумагу. Подождите, пока бумага разгладится.


While you should always dampen a Beauty Blender to apply makeup or skincare products, that's not the case if you're cleaning up makeup mistakes. Instead, make sure that your sponge is clean but completely dry before you start. It helps to have an extra Beauty Blender -- one that you can use wet to apply your makeup and one that you can leave dry in case you need it to clean up mistakes. If you've applied too much blush or bronzer, wipe the sponge over the areas to help tone down the color. Because the sponge is dry, it will pick up more of the makeup and give you a more natural finish. If you've applied too much foundation, concealer, or setting powder, you can use the dry sponge to help pick up some of the makeup. Roll the side of the Beauty Blender over areas that look cakey, and the sponge will remove the excess. You can use the same technique to smoothe out streaky foundation or lines around the edge of your face.

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите чистый сухой спонж. Обработайте участок, на котором оказалось слишком много косметики. Покатайте бьюти блендер по коже.


While you should be prepared to answer questions about sex throughout your child's life, now and then you might need to have a sit down talk. This can be once your child reaches a certain age, before or after he begins sex ed at school, or at any point where changes have occurred that would result in him having a lot of questions about sex, sexuality, and reproduction.  Let your child know ahead of time you want to talk to them about sex and reproduction, but phrase it in a positive way. Say something like, "As you're getting older, I feel like you're responsible enough to learn some things about the adult world you might be curious about." It's best for your child to hear about sex from you for the first time, so aim to have the first sex talk young. As previously stated, you can use discretion in what topics you do and do not cover, but try to talk to your child about sex by the time he's 10. As girls can start menstruating as young as 9, you should make sure your daughter feels comfortable coming to you with any questions about periods.  Your child should know the basic physical properties that lead to menstruation. It is helpful to have a medical drawing of the female reproductive system on hand when having this discussion. As stated, if you do not feel comfortable in your own medical knowledge feel free to use outside sources while discussing the process.  Your daughter should also know she can and should come to you the first time her period starts. You will be able to find her the proper sanitary napkins or tampons and help her through the emotional impact menstruation might have.  Your daughter might already know what her period is, or at least know the word. You can start off by asking her, "Do you know if any of the girls in your class have had their period yet?" and see how she responds. Allow her to ask questions throughout the discussion. While a 10 year-old might not need to know about the logistics of safe sex, boys do start experiencing arousal and erections as young as age 9. Discuss these...

TL;DR in Russian:

Время от времени разговаривайте с ребенком о важном. Поговорите о менструации с дочкой. Если у вас сын, поговорите с ним об эротических снах, эякуляции и эрекции. Не бойтесь неудобных разговоров.


While you should choose a color you'll want to wear, you should also keep texture in mind. Make sure the yarn is comfortable and easy to work. Buy several skeins of yarn that all have the same dye lot or you might notice subtle color variations between the skeins. Remember that the thicker the yarn, the warmer the leg warmers will be. You can certainly use thinner yarn, just be aware that they won't be as cozy as the ones made with bulkier yarn. This is basically determined by the type of yarn you've chosen. The yarn package should give a suggested hook size for use with that specific yarn. The hook size suggestion doesn't have to be followed, but your crocheting might turn out knotty or too loose. These are usually about 4 inches (10.2 cm) by 4 inches (10.2 cm) and feature the same stitches you'll be using in the pattern itself. If you're holding the yarn too tightly, you may need to increase your hook size. Likewise, if your stitches are too loose, a smaller hook may be needed. Note where you'd like them to fit on your leg, then measure that length. You'll essentially be crocheting one large rectangle before joining it together. The longest part of that rectangle should match the length you'd like for your leg warmers.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберете нитки. Выберите вязальный крючок. Попрактикуйтесь на «черновике» и заодно проверьте, подходит ли вам крючок. Подумайте, какой длины должны быть ваши гетры.


While you should not focus on looks alone to be popular, confidence is key to popularity. Giving yourself a new haircut and changing up your wardrobe and makeup can help you feel better about yourself. This may make you more likely to put yourself out there and seek out new friendships, boosting your popularity.  Try to go with trends that you personally enjoy. If you're wearing something you hate, you won't feel confident in it. This can make you less likely to socialize. If you hate leggings, do not follow the legging trend in your school. If you notice a lot of popular girls wear boots, and you love your pair of black lace-up boots, this could be a great trend for you to follow. Try to keep up with trends and wear trendy clothing. Right now stores like Hollister, A&F, Brandy Melville, Forever 21, PacSun, and Aeropostale are all good places to shop at. But also have unique quirky things to change things up a bit. You may want to change up your hair and makeup. You can go to the makeup counter at a local beauty salon and ask for an attractive every day makeup look. Ask a stylist at a salon what would be a flattering hairstyle for you. Makeup and hair that works well for your features can bolster your confidence and, in turn, increase your popularity. While smiling is a small change, it can make you look more positive and approachable. Striving to smile more can help increase your popularity and win you more friends. Work on smiling in front of a mirror until you find a winning and approachable smile. As you navigate the hallways, try to smile at others.  When people talk to you, make an effort to smile during the conversation. When introducing yourself to new people, flash a smile at them and make eye contact. If you're a warm and friendly person, people can be drawn to you. This can win you more friends and more popularity. Work on cultivating a friendly attitude in order to be popular in your school.  Try to show people you are happy to see them. If appropriate, give a friend a hug or a pat on the shoulder...

TL;DR in Russian:

Создайте новый имидж. Улыбайтесь. Будьте дружелюбной. Интересуйтесь собеседником. Слушайте. Будьте готовы помочь. Будьте собой.


While you should not have a friend ask the guy to the dance for you, if you and he do share a mutual friend, you can ask that person to find out if your crush already has a date or if he would be open to the possibility of going with you. Ask a mutual friend who is reliable and trustworthy. You do not want a friend who will use the knowledge of your feelings against you or someone who will fail to live up to the promise. The simplest way to ask your crush is to slip him a note. Keep the tone lighthearted and the message brief, and leave it in a place that he is guaranteed to spot it in.  You can slip a note into his locker or bookbag, for instance. Try to be fun and casual. Instead of confessing your undying love and scaring him off, just casually say that “it's lady's choice” and you choose him. You could also use the classic “check 'yes' or 'no'” format. Write “Will you go to the Sadie Hawkins Dance with me?” and create separate checkboxes for “No” and “Yes.” If you are on close enough terms with your crush to have his phone number, send him a quick text asking him if he would be interested in going to Sadie's with you.  This is only an option if he gave you his phone number directly. If you got it from a third party, texting him without warning can be a little startling. To the same end, you can also use email to ask him to the dance. Send a private message or create a Facebook event that only he can see. Request a response of “yes” or “no,” rather than a “maybe” response. It is generally best if you create a private event or use a private message rather than asking for the entire social media world to see. Keeping things private can save you some embarrassment if his answer ends up being no. If the two of you share similar tastes in music, you can create a CD of your favorite songs and pass it along to him. Write your invitation on the CD case or use the track titles to ask him out.  You could include songs on the CD with lyrics about a girl asking a guy out, especially if the song talks specifically...

TL;DR in Russian:

Попросите вашего общего друга о помощи. Напишите записку. Напишите ему сообщение. Можете воспользоваться социальными сетями. Запишите на CD-диск разную музыку. Оставьте свое сообщение в бутылке. Поместите записку в воздушный шар.


While you should not ignore your own needs, you should think highly of the needs of others and be there to take care of those needs when you can. An obvious example of service would be volunteering your time in a formal situation to help others. Less obvious, however, are informal ways you volunteer your time and energy. For example, a virtuous woman will be there for a friend who needs a shoulder to cry on, even if it means missing out on a favorite show or limited sale. Kindness is about more than nice words and pleasant smiles. To be truly kind to someone, you need to approach that person with a giving spirit. To be kind means that you should be the sort of person whom others can turn to for positive words and actions. It is not enough to simply exchange a few nice words in passing. If you are given a task at school or work, finish it in a timely manner and without procrastinating. Another way to look at this principle is to label it as self-discipline. Even if no one is watching and you are able to procrastinate on a task or put less than your best effort into it, you should still do your best with it and complete the task promptly. True virtue is not found merely in the actions that others can see, but in the actions you perform when no one is looking. You can indulge occasionally, but on the whole, you should not be irresponsible with your money, spend it flippantly, or be wasteful. Frugality is a type of virtue which involves careful stewardship of resources and money.  This does not mean that you should be stingy or cheap, though. It does mean that you should take care of your financial obligations before using your money on indulgences. In other words, you should not be spending money on an exotic vacation if it means leaving bills and loans unpaid. Everyone needs time to relax, but overall, you should try to stay active rather than falling into lazy or slothful behavior. In short, you should be a good steward of the time that is allotted you.  Take time to relax and recharge as needed, since you can...

TL;DR in Russian:

Живите в служении другим. Будьте гостеприимной, щедрой и доброй. Выполняйте задания, которые вам поручили. Распоряжайтесь деньгами мудро. Распоряжайтесь своим временем мудро.


While you shouldn't have any problem performing these steps with most versions of iTunes, updating will typically solve most issues you may encounter. Updating is especially important if you are running a very old version that may not have access to the same features.  Windows - Click Help → Check for Updates OS X - Click iTunes → Check for Updates Use the USB cable to attach the iPod. Plug it into a port directly on your computer; plugging into a USB hub will generally not provide enough power. If iTunes hasn't been opened yet, it may open automatically. If you can't see the sidebar, click View → Hide Sidebar.  You cannot sync photos with iPods that do not have a color screen. If your device does not appear, you may need to put it in Recovery Mode. This will open the photo sync manager. This will enable you to select pictures from various sources to sync with your iPod. Use the drop-down menu to choose where you want to sync photos from. You can choose from the various photo manager programs installed on your computer, or you can select a specific folder. You can sync photos from multiple sources. You can have all of the photos from your source synced, or you can manually select photos and albums. Check the box next to each item you want to sync. Click Apply to copy the photos to your iPod. You monitor the sync process in the display at the top of the window.

TL;DR in Russian:

Убедитесь, что ваш  iTunes имеет последнюю версию. Подключите iPod к компьютеру с помощью USB-кабеля. Выберете iPod в меню устройства. Выберите вкладку «Фото». Проверьте окно «Синхронизировать фото из». Выберите источник. Выберите фотографии для синхронизации. Начните синхронизацию.


While you usually start by finding a shirt to build off, for pop concerts try starting at your shoes and working your way up.  Heels (or wedges) are a great look. Only wear heels that you are comfortable enough in that you can stand for five hours straight without needing to sit down. Comfortable flats are a better choice. Keep in mind you will be on your feet most of the time and might be dancing. Go for some colorful ballet flats or bright sneakers. Boots are a more conservative choice but are still very fashionable.  These are great because they are comfortable, fashionable, and look fabulous with a pair of jeans. Avoid open toe flats or sandals. Venues are crowded and full of people moving and dancing. You are likely to get your toes stepped on and closed toed shoes will protect them! For example, you want to build off the look you choose for your shoes.  Start by creating a chic-casual look with a pair of skinny jeans. These are comfortable for wearing to a concert. If you wear boots try a pair of skinny jeans. This is going to create a fashion forward, sophisticated look. But be careful on this choice because it may be too tight and you will most likely be walking around a whole lot. For an extra burst of color, try pairing your boots with a pair of bright or pale colored jeans. You could also choose a pair of leggings in a complementary color and tone to your shoes.   If your heels are more strappy or you want to dress up the look even more, try a fitted miniskirt or peplum skirt. Wear this in a color that complements your body and personality. You want to create a look that is feminine and sophisticated.  If you are wearing jeans, adding a white tee is always chic, especially when they are extra loose, have detailing or ruffles, or have an interesting cut. If you are wearing a colorful fitted mini or a peplum skirt, a tucked in looser tank top is going to create a feminine look. If you want to stand out, try wearing a sparkly shirt or something in a bright color. Make sure your top is made of cotton....

TL;DR in Russian:

Начните с нижней части и продвигайтесь вверх. Выберите низ, сочетающийся с обувью. Завершите комплект интересным верхом. Наденьте вместо комплекта платье. Дополните свой образ аксессуарами. Сделайте прическу и макияж.


While you want to be comfortable with the girl you like, you need to understand how far you can take your teasing. Understand that there are limits for what you can say and do to her before you make her uncomfortable and she is turned off by you completely. If you’re not sure about teasing her in the first place, things such as insults about her physical appearance, her family, or her friends are definitely out of the question. Make sure the level of teasing is something she is comfortable with. You may have to test out a few things before you truly understand where the boundaries are. Trust your instincts and watch for clues about how she feels. If your flirting falls flat, make sure you don't take your bad attempt out on her. Also, if you offend her, make sure you apologize. If you have a particularly sardonic sense of humor, you may say some things that don't go over very well and it may only be a matter of time before you offend her. If you've said something out of line, give her a sincere, articulate, and specific apology. Don't try to play it off as if she is being too sensitive. If you have just met the girl, you can't tease her the same way you can a girl you've been dating for a few months. Making jokes about sex or inappropriately touching her are things you should avoid early on in a relationship. Make sure you aren't overly vulgar if that is going to make her uncomfortable. If you don’t know her very well, you’ll either freak her out or get a reputation as a jerk. When you tease her, don't make it feel like a personal critique of something about her or something that is important to her. If she is really into saving animals, don't try to tease her with lines like: "Wow, you have a lot of cats. Does that make you a crazy cat lady?" If her passion means a lot to her, she could take the critique too harshly and you could make her feel uncomfortable. If you disagree with something she believes, try teasing her instead with something trivial to alleviate the tension. If you disagree about politics,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Знайте меру. Не будьте слишком горды собой. Знайте меру. Не критикуйте ее.


While you want to find the right man, be the right partner in the relationship for your future husband. It’s easy to blame someone for what’s going wrong in your relationship. However, you cannot change someone, you can only change yourself. If you frame a person into being the “right” or “wrong” man, it misses consideration of your part in the relationship. You alone are responsible for the relationship you want. Take responsibility for your own feelings without blaming your partner, and notice if he does this, too. If you feel frustrated, speak up or do something to change things on your own initiative. Recognize from the start that you will not marry a perfect man. He has flaws and he will trigger you. Before you get married, make sure you have some awareness of the things that annoy you or bother you. You might get annoyed by home life things (like a messy man) or lifestyle things (like a man who spends a lot of time with friends). Know what things bother you or annoy you and don’t plan on them magically disappearing when you get married. More likely, they will magnify.  Accept that there will be lots of things you disagree on. Be ready to accept him as he is without feeling the need to change him. Accept that you have flaws, too. Be ready for them to come to light. If you fall in love with someone yet some big problems already exist, like a drinking or drug problem, halt your feelings for a bit. Step outside of your emotions and step into a more rational mindset. Ask yourself if there are things that you’re avoiding or overlooking that are important to acknowledge. If you’re hoping problems will magically work themselves out, be realistic in how they might actually turn out. Don’t expect things to get better. For example, if the man is violent or has an addiction, don’t expect him to change just because you might get married. Be cautious.

TL;DR in Russian:

Берите на себя ответственность. Примите его недостатки. Принимайте во внимание любые предупреждающие знаки.


While you're listening, write down good notes and important details he/she says. Block distracting things from your mind. Listen to other people speaking the same language to improve your speaking and writing and pronunciation. Take a topic and explain it and be sure to talk loud and clear so people can interpret what you are saying. Discuss the topic of your speech with others as well. There will always be ways in which you can improve.  Communicate with different people. Everyone has a different way of speaking and therefore talking with different people can not only help develop your language skills but your social skills as well.

TL;DR in Russian:

Слушайте инструктора и вслушивайтесь в его слова. Выступайте перед классом.


While you're on your way home to get further treatment, hold your arm in an elevated position to help minimize the swelling. Gently wash the area to remove dirt and any other debris from the area. This will help prevent an infection. This will help to alleviate the itching by bringing down the swelling and numbing the stung area. Cycle the compress in 20-minute intervals. Apply it for 20 minutes, then let your skin recover for at least 20 minutes. You can also use an ice pack. Just be sure to have a barrier like a cloth or paper towels between the ice and your skin. These over-the-counter medicines will help alleviate the pain and itching. After a few hours, the swelling will subside a little and a blister will form. As long as you don't pop the blister, the area shouldn't become infected. Avoid scratching it, as this can cause it to break.  If the blister breaks, cleanse the area with soapy water and monitor it for signs of infection. You can also apply an antibiotic ointment to any open stings. These ointments are available over-the-counter from most drug stores and pharmacies.  If the area becomes discolored or starts leaking pus, it may have become infected. Seek medical attention immediately.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поднимите пострадавший участок тела. Вымойте укус мыльной водой. Приложите к укушенному участку холодный компресс. Примите антигистаминный препарат или используйте мазь гидрокортизон. Не протыкайте волдырь.


While you're waiting for the grill to warm up, lay your bacon strips over the grate in a roasting pan. This pan should consist of a metal grate that fits into a lower "grease catcher" with no holes in it. This allows the bacon to safely cook from the heat of the grill without dripping grease onto the bottom of the grill or burners. As an added bonus, roasting pans make for easy cleanup — just pour the grease out of the lower pan, wash the pan and the grate, and you're done! Add your roasting pan full of bacon to the grill and shut the lid. This keeps the heat from the burners inside the grill, cooking the bacon from both above and below in a fashion similar to baking it. To keep your cooking time low, keep the lid shut during cooking except for when you check on the bacon's progress. Don't forget to turn doing the cooking process — though it's not as essential here because the heat is coming from all sides, rather than just from below, it's still necessary for even cooking. You'll want to turn at least as it cooks — more is fine, but may lengthen the cooking time by allowing the grill's heat to escape. Keep a close eye on your bacon as it cooks — if it's cooking too quickly, flip it immediately and reduce the heat. Once the bacon is cooked on both sides to your liking, use a pair of tongs to remove it from the grill to a paper towel-lined plate. At this point, you're more or less done! Shut off your grill and, once it's cool enough to handle, carefully remove your roasting pan.

TL;DR in Russian:

While your burn is healing, avoid touching it, scratching it, rubbing it, or popping any blisters that form. Though it may provide short-term relief, it can delay the healing process and lead to infections or scarring.  To deal with pain or discomfort, apply a soothing gel to the top of closed wounds. Don't use anti-itch creams. They can irritate burn wounds. If a blister pops, apply bacitracin ointment or honey over the affected area immediately. Then, cover the wound with a non-adhesive bandage or gauze. This will help prevent infection. You may be able to find gauze that already has honey in it over the counter or with a prescription from your doctor. To prevent scarring after severe burns, medical providers often order tight, form-fitting clothes to compress the skin. For the less severe cigarette burn, general-purpose clothes can lead to similar results. Wear tight-fitting gloves, shapewear, or similar items over the affected area, serving as a top layer of skin while your body heals itself. The right kind of clothing to wear depends on how big your wound is. Talk to your doctor to find out what kind of clothing you should be wearing. When the skin over your burn initially heals, it will be a different color than the rest of your body. Until it has time to redevelop its natural pigmentation, keep it out of direct sunlight to avoid any color scarring. This is best accomplished by hiding the area behind thick, dark clothing. If exposure is unavoidable, cover the area with sunscreen ranked SPF-30 or higher.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не дотрагивайтесь до пораженной кожи и не прокалывайте волдыри. Наносите бактерицидную мазь или натуральный мед на лопнувшие волдыри. Надевайте компрессионную (сдавливающую кожу) одежду. Оберегайте место ожога от попадания прямых солнечных лучей.


While your child may continue to receive natural consequences, you can begin to implement logical consequences as well. A logical relationship between their behavior and the consequence can help your child understand the outcome of their actions better.For example, if your child lied about completing their chores, give them additional chores to complete. A school-aged child is often old enough to understand what they did. Use this as an opportunity to build empathy and teach them why certain behaviors are inappropriate or negative. Your child can begin to learn how their actions affect others and themselves. For example, many school-aged children start lying as a way to gain attention or push boundaries. If your child begins to lie to you, let them know that lying hurts other people and makes your child appear less trustworthy, which can affect their friendships. School-aged children like to have choices, which helps them feel more in control and willing to get things done. If you’re struggling to get your child to complete their chores (or homework), consider asking them to choose which ones they will do. When it comes to homework, let your child decide what order to do their homework in or what they will do during certain slots of time.  For chores, give your child 6 options and let them pick 4 to do. Some parents give prizes or money for doing extra chores. If your child wants to win something, let them work for it by choosing chores from popsicle sticks. Harder chores mean bigger prizes or more money! Some kids get in trouble because they don’t finish their responsibilities at home or school. While it can be due to laziness, provide the best environment for your child to succeed. Notice where your child falls short and see if you can create some support for them.  If your child struggles to complete their homework each night, designate a time for them to do it. If they struggle to get out to the school bus on time in the morning, set up a routine for them in the morning that allows plenty of time. Have...

While your dough rests, you can prepare the filling for your momos.  You can make momos with either a meat, vegetable, or cheese filling.  Tofu can also be used.  Typical seasonings include garlic, onion, ginger, bouillon, soy sauce, cilantro, and Szechuan pepper.  Use ground meat for a meat filling.  In Tibet, Yak meat is most commonly used.  Other types of meat used to make momos vary by Tibetan region or community.  In some areas, pork or beef is common, while in others mutton is used.  Chicken is not a common option, but it is used by those who don’t eat beef. For veggie fillings, you can use a potato filling or an assortment of finely chopped vegetables. Cheese fillings usually consist of either a dry cheese blended with sugar, which is mainly made in Tibet; it can also be a soft cheese mixed with a vegetable, like cheese and spinach or cheese and mushroom. If making a vegetable filling, wash and peel your vegetables.  They will need to be finely chopped or grated.  You can either do this by hand or by using a food processor.  Keep the garlic, onions, and scallions separate from the rest of the vegetables, unless including meat in your filling.  A blender may work in place of a food processor; instead of blending the mixture into a smooth puree, pulse it.  This means allowing the mixture to blend a couple seconds at a time until fully chopped. If you’d like a meat filling, simply replace the mushrooms and tofu for your choice of ground or chopped meat. Place your chopped vegetables and/or ground meat in a large bowl and mix together well using your hands, if needed.  Season with two tablespoons of soy sauce and one teaspoon of bouillon. To ensure your meat mixture is perfectly seasoned, cook a small piece, and taste it.  Add more soy sauce and bouillon, if desired. Unlike the meat filling, the vegetable filling must be cooked before it's tucked inside each momo.  Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium heat.  Add your chopped garlic to the pan and sauté for 2-3 seconds.  Then add the chopped...

While your friend might usually love a spur of the moment visit, recovering from surgery is a different matter entirely. Not only do hospitals often have specific visiting hours, your friend might need to prepare physically and emotionally for visitors.  Know the hospitals visiting hours and policies. Depending on where in the hospital your friend is staying, there is different protocol for visitation. If your friend is still in the recovery room, for example, only one visitor at a time is permitted, with the nurse's permission and supervision, and there are stricter rules for personal hygiene. Call the hospital ahead of time to ask about visiting hours and any restrictions. Try to reach a family member or spouse to see when would be a good time to visit. This way, you'll have a better idea of how your friend is feeling, what tests have been run, and whether they're up for visitors. Once you know, plan your visit accordingly. Call or text once more before heading out to make sure your presence is still welcome. Plan to stay about 20 or 30 minutes, but use your judgment. If your friend seems tired or disengaged, you should slip out sooner. If they seem happy to see you, and are excited to talk to you, then feel free to stay longer. A lot of things can be bothersome to patients just out of surgery, so make sure you do not do anything to cause your friend discomfort during your visit.  Do not wear perfume, aftershave or strong smelling lotions as people are often sensitive to smells when they're sick or recovering from surgery. In addition, many healthcare facilities are now fragrance-free.   When you enter and leave a friend's room, wash your hands with soap, water, alcohol rubs, or hand sanitizer. Check with the nurses' station before entering the room, as you could be required to use a gown, gloves and/or a mask. People are more susceptible to germs after an operation. If you have any type of illness, such as a a cold or flu, ask the hospital staff beforehand if it's safe for you to visit your friend, as it...

While your husband is taking a hot shower, sneak into the bathroom and write “I love you” on the steamy mirror. He’ll have a pleasant surprise waiting for him when he gets out of the shower.   As long as you don’t freak him out when you sneak in the bathroom, he’ll be touched by this sweet and creative gesture. If you don’t think the steam approach will work, write him a sweet post-it before you leave for the day and stick it on the bathroom mirror, so it’s one of the first things he sees when he gets up. Everyone deserves to be spoiled with some breakfast in bed every once in a while. Whether it’s his birthday, Valentine’s Day, your anniversary, or just a random day when you want to show him how much he means to you, you should get up early and make him a fun, love-themed breakfast that shows him how much he means to you.  Make sure he’s not busy and in the mood to enjoy your delicious treats, and you’ll be showing him how much you love him. If you have kids, they can help you serve him. Heart shaped pancakes with some halved strawberries can be a cute way to show him how much he means to you. If he’s more into bacon and eggs, you can make him a smiley face out of egg eyes and a bacon mouth, and have him laughing over how hard you tried. If you really want to hammer home the point that you’re being romantic, then make some chocolate-covered strawberries and serve them as a side dish or place them over his Belgian waffle. If you want to be funny, make him Eggs Benedict with some hollandaise-sauce shaped hearts over them. Getting a love letter from his wife will be much more romantic for your husband than dealing with the usual junk mail and bills.  Take the time to write him a long, sweet letter that explains just how much he means to you and try to time it so he gets it before your date night or another important occasion. He should be the one who checks the mail that day, and you should make sure not to give your secret away. This will be a great way to show him you love him in a new and creative way.  Have...

TL;DR in Russian:

Напишите сообщение на зеркале в ванной комнате. Приготовьте ему романтический завтрак в постель. Отправьте мужу любовное письмо. Запланируйте веселый отдых в выходные. Если вы живете в частном доме или у вас есть дача, разбейте лагерь во дворе. Тщательно нарядитесь для вечернего свидания.


While your impulse may be to blame yourself for what's happened, resist the urge. There are simply forces in life and nature that cannot be controlled. Beating yourself up about what you could have, would have, should have done is counterproductive to healing. For some parents, all they want to do is to sleep.  Others find themselves pacing the floors at night and staring blankly at the TV. The death of a child takes an extreme toll on the body. Science has shown that a loss of this magnitude is similar to a major physical injury, so you absolutely need rest. Give in to the urge to sleep if you have it; otherwise, try to establish a nighttime routine--warm bath, herbal tea, relaxation exercises--that can help ease you into a good night's sleep. Sometimes, in the days immediately following your child's death, relatives, and friends may bring you food so that you don't have to cook. Do your best to eat a little each day in order to keep up your strength. It's difficult to deal with negative emotions and everyday activities when you're physically weak. Eventually, you may have to return to making your own meals. Keep it simple. Bake a chicken or make a big pot of soup that can last for a few meals. Find healthy takeout options in your neighborhood and restaurants that will deliver to your home. Whether or not you're finding it difficult to eat, try to drink at least eight glasses of water a day. Sip on a cup of soothing tea or keep a refillable water bottle with you. Dehydration is physically taxing, and your body is already being taxed enough. While it's understandable that you may want to blot out the memory of your child's death, excessive use of alcohol and drugs can aggravate depression and create a whole new set of problems to deal with. Some parents find that a sleep aid is a necessity, and that anti-anxiety or anti-depression medication helps them better cope. There are many varieties of these medications, and finding the right one that works best can be a daunting task, and one best undertaken with the...

While your main concern may be to take care of your loved one, it is incredibly important that you spend some time taking care of yourself. If you are constantly thinking about how best to help your loved one, you are sure to get tired. When you are tired, you are more likely to lose your patience, which can make matters worse. Because of this, make sure to set some time aside each day to relax and recharge. While you are supporting your loved one, it is also important to talk to others who can support you during this difficult time. Talk to people you trust, like other family members or friends, about what you are going through. Simply expressing your emotions can make the situation seem more manageable. Aside from talking to family or friends, you may also find it helpful to talk with people who are not involved in your specific situation, but have gone through what you are now going through. Support groups are good places to share your experiences and learn from others who may have insights into ways that you can make your situation more positive. To find a support group, run an internet search for support groups for families of people with PTSD in your area. You can also look at community bulletin boards, or talk to a therapist about where to find support groups.

Whether that is going to see a movie, reading a book, going on a hike, or simply relaxing in a bath, set aside some time to do things that make you happy each day.

While your mouse is in the cage, spend time talking to it, feeding it, and giving it fresh water. These things will give the mouse positive associations with your presence. This is important because you’re so big that you can easily be seen as a threat. Get down to the same level as your mouse’s cage. That way, the mouse won’t always see you as a giant towering over it. Mice love treats. Feeding the mouse treats from your hand will give it more positive associations with you. However, you want to be careful not to get bitten, and not to encourage biting in the future.  Put a treat in the palm of your hand and lower your hand into the cage slowly. The treat can be a piece of fruit or a rodent treat from the pet store. Wait for the mouse to approach you. Let it take the treat. This will teach the mouse to consistently approach you and that your hand is safe. Once the mouse is used to your hand coming into the cage, and it doesn’t see you as a threat, pick it up. You can just gently scoop the mouse into your hand. If this is difficult, you can grab the mouse gently from the base of his tail and then quickly put him into your other hand. If you’re going to use the tail to pick up your mouse, do so by the very base, and only do so for a moment. It can be quite painful for a mouse to be held or dangled by its tail. While you hold the mouse, speak to it gently, and try to make sure the experience is pleasant and not stressful. Do this everyday, spending more and more time with your mouse until it’s very comfortable with you.  Always try to end the holding session on a positive note. For example, if the mouse urinates on you, or bites you, and you immediately put it back in its cage, it will learn that those behaviors will get it to go home. Instead, aim to put the mouse back after a desired behavior, such as approaching food in your hand, or remaining still for a long moment.

While your oven is preheating, ready your pan. For this method you will need a baking sheet that has many small holes or slots and a lip that will keep all of the beans in the pan. These pans can be found at any kitchen supply store. If you don’t want to buy a new pan but happen to have an old baking sheet with a lip lying around, you can actually make your own roasting sheet. Take your pan and use a ⅛ inch drill bit to carefully drill holes into the sheet. The holes should be ½ inch away from each other and small enough that none of the beans will fall through them. Pour the beans onto the sheet so that they lie in one layer over the entire pan. The beans should be close together but should not be overlapping. Once the oven is preheated, place the baking sheet with the beans onto the middle rack of the oven. Listening for a cracking or popping noise. This is the water contained in the beans evaporating. The popping noise signifies that the beans are roasting and darkening. Stir them around every few minutes to help them develop an even roast.

While your plant may take a couple of years to get fully going, some hit giant spurts where they can grow a foot in a week. When it does start developing, you may want to use a climbing pole to give it structure. This can help it reach its full potential without it breaking or weighing itself down.  If you've planted your dragon fruit plant from seeds and they're now visibly growing, separate them into their own pots. They need their own turf to grow and flourish. You'll notice a bloom start to develop over the course of many weeks. However, it will only actually bloom for one night (yep, it's nocturnal) so you'll likely miss it in its full glory. Many are self-pollinating (if it's not you can try hand-pollination; brush the pistil's natural pollen down into the inside of the flower). If a fruit is going to develop, you'll notice the flower wither and the base of the bloom begin to swell. Dragon fruit plants can get quite large; some varieties can even reach upwards of 20 feet (6.1 m). When it gets too large, start pruning it by cutting off some branches. Less weight may actually get it stronger, concentrate the nutrients, and encourage it to flower. You don't necessarily have to throw the branches away! You can either repot them yourself and grow another plant (they will take root virtually effortlessly) or give them away as a gift. in the latter half of the year. Dragon fruit usually produces ripe fruit in late summer or fall, but can fruit at almost any time of year if it receives enough water and warmth. You can tell that a dragon fruit is ripe when the skin turns red or yellow, depending on variety. The skin will also feel slightly soft when squeezed, but not mushy. You've been waiting years for this moment, so savor it. You can cut the fruit into quarters and tear off the rind or just dig into it with a spoon. It's sweet and has a texture that resembles kiwifruit but it's a little crunchier. Once in full production, you could see four to six fruit-bearing cycles per year. They amp up eventually; it just...

While your skin is likely itchy, scratching only further irritates it, and can increase the duration of the reaction and even cause it to spread further. Do not itch or touch the affected area. Note that if scratching is particularly tempting, try wearing gloves or mittens while at home. If this is uncomfortable for you, clipping your nails can also help. Anything to delay the instant gratification of scratching deters you from indulging in the behavior. Tight clothes can rub against a skin rash, further irritating the area. Wear loose-fitting clothing or, if possible, clothing that does not cover the affected area at all, such as shorts or t-shirts.  Moisture and heat of any kind can sometimes irritate a skin rash, so make sure the clothing is lightweight and made from a material that dries quickly, such as cotton. If your symptoms are severe; a damp dressing may help. Find a soft cotton garment like a long-sleeve t-shirt or long underwear, soak it in cool water, wring it out, and then put it on. Wear a loose-fitting garment over the dressing. During the duration of the rash, activities that lead to unnecessary skin contact and sweating should be avoided.  Most contact sports - like football, rugby, and hockey - should be avoided altogether as it's hard to avoid touching and further irritating the skin. Exercises like aerobics, running, and weightlifting can be fine. However, sweating can be harmful to a skin rash so if you choose to participate find fast-drying workout clothing that does not have too much contact with the affected area.

TL;DR in Russian:

Не чешите сыпь. Носите свободную одежду. Не делайте ничего, что может вызвать раздражение на коже.


While your ultimate dating goal might be to find the perfect guy for you, you’ll be more successful if you just try to have fun. Pick dates that you’ll enjoy, then spend the time making a connection with the guy. Take your time to get to know him so that the relationship can develop into something meaningful. For instance, play mini golf, go bowling, attend a concert, have a picnic, go rock climbing, or tour a local museum. Knowing what you want in a partner helps you narrow your focus to guys that fit the bill. Make a list of what you absolutely need in a partner, then write a separate list of wants that would be nice to have. Next, prioritize both lists so you know what’s non-negotiable and what you’re willing to compromise. For example, you might need a guy that’s caring, honest, and open-minded. Additionally, you might want him to have a job he enjoys, to like cats, and to enjoy hiking. You might be nervous to make the first move, but it can help you get a great guy. If you’re interested in someone, invite him to do something fun that you’ll both enjoy, like watching a local band play. Alternatively, ask him to join you for coffee. Say, “Do you want to check out this show with me on Friday?” or “I’m headed over to Good Beans for a cup of coffee. Wanna join me?” Put your phone away so you can be in the moment with your guy. Listen to what he has to say and show interest in what he’s talking about. This will show him that you really care about him and want to get to know him. Expect him to do the same for you. If he’s on his phone, let him know it bothers you. Say, “Are you okay with putting our phones away during our date?” If he continues to use his phone, he might not be the right guy for you. People are usually nervous when they’re first meeting people, and it’s hard to get to know someone quickly. Because of that, it’s important to spend time with a guy before you make conclusions about him. If you think a guy might be a good match, go on several dates with him to see if something is there. If you meet...

TL;DR in Russian:

Сосредоточьтесь на том, чтобы получать удовольствие вместо того, чтобы искать спутника жизни. Расставьте приоритеты в том, что вам нужно и чего вы хотите от мужчины. Пригласите парня на свидание, если он вам интересен. Уделяйте мужчине безраздельное внимание во время свидания. Узнайте парня получше, прежде чем вычеркивать его их списка потенциальных партнеров. Не судите новых партнеров на основе поступков ваших бывших. Поддерживайте взаимную независимость после того, как начнете отношения.


While your voice is raised, release your gas. If this action causes a smell, quickly be the one to ask, "Who farted?" Either your fart won't be noticeable, or the fart will cause more laughter. Don't turn your back to them. Still in plain sight, do a fake armpit fart (where no noise comes out), and fart at the same time. If it's a silent fart, pretend to have failed at the armpit fart and walk back, saying "Dang, it didn't work." If it sounds too realistic, laugh and say, "I bet you can't do one as good as that!" You may initiate a full-on armpit fart contest! You feel the need to fart but you withhold it. Then go to someone at the sleepover ( please choose wisely )wear a sad or strained expression on your face and walk up to him/ her.Stop and slowly extend your arm with your forefinger  pointing at the victim,and with a pitiful voice say: ' Please, hold my finger for a while' or whatever you might think convincing.The victim is suspicious and reluctantly holds your finger looking at you in the eye. With a perfect sense of timing you let out a sonorous big fart. The victim is so startled the he/she even jumps back and hollers...everybody split their sides with laughter... and even the victim may join in. If the person whose house you're staying over at has a dog, make sure the dog is by you. You can quickly blame it on the poor, unsuspecting animal. If the person doesn't have a dog, try to hold it until everyone is asleep or quietly excuse yourself to the bathroom.

TL;DR in Russian:

Во время разговора повысьте голос так, как будто акцентируете на чем-то. Дождитесь, пока все засмеются и пукните. Если вы умеете пукать подмышкой, отойдите от группы как можно дальше и скажите, что вам надо пукнуть так, как будто вы сейчас сделаете что-то невероятное. Вы также можете приколоться над кем-то: Когда вы будете спать, постарайтесь пукнуть так, чтобы никто не заметил.

While you’re massaging your cat, this is an ideal time to check your cat’s overall health. Check the fur to see if your cat has been grooming himself.  If the fur is matted or greasy, this could indicate health problems such as diabetes, bladder infections or other issues. If it seems unclean in only a few spots, this might indicate that your cat has trouble reaching certain areas of his body, perhaps because of arthritis. If the fur is over-groomed and the fur is actually missing or sparse in some areas, this could indicate a dermatological issue, such as a skin irritation or allergy. As you rub your fingers and hands over your cat’s body, dig under the fur gently to check the health of your cat’s skin. If you feel bites or bumps, your cat might have fleas or other skin irritations. Cats can get feverish, which can indicate an illness of some sort. As you massage your cat, you will get a sense of his normal body temperature. If you feel that his body is warmer than usual, start checking for other indications of illness or injury, such as an infected cut or vomiting. Heated spots on the body might also indicate arthritis. Take note of any abnormalities that you might find as you massage your cat. Lumps and bumps can indicate serious health issues, so it’s good to be aware of what’s normal for your cat and what’s not. Your vet is the best source for assessing your cat’s health. If you’ve discovered a lump, skin problem or other health issue, ask your vet if the issue should be treated.

While you’re stuck at the airport, find some ways to relax, rest, and entertain yourself. Try exploring the airport—shop around, get some food or a drink, or get your nails done. You could use also the opportunity to socialize and get to know the other people stuck there as well.  This is also the perfect time to get some sleep after the stress of the flight change. Set an alarm so you don’t have to worry about missing your next flight and get some rest. Have some entertainment with you, such as a book, magazine, puzzle book, tablet, or laptop. Take the opportunity to catch up on your Netflix queue or finish that book you’ve been reading. It may be difficult staying calm and polite, but it will win you more responsiveness from those in a position to help you. People are naturally inclined to help those who help them by being friendly, patient, and understanding.  Engage in positive self-talk. Encourage and reassure yourself that everything will work out. Identify your negative self-talk and replace it with rationality and positivity.  Take deep, calming breaths. This action will release stress and tension, and can also help you fall asleep if you’re having difficulty sleeping.  Take some time to meditate and relax. This practice can also help you gain perspective and be more mindful about the situation. You can meditate anywhere—in a quiet place or as you’re walking around the airport. Whether in the terminal or on the tarmac, some physical activity can help clear your head and get rid of some anxiety. Get up and walk around for a bit and encourage others to do likewise. To pass the time, talk to the people around you and keep things as upbeat and calm as possible. It’s easy to get discouraged, angry, or panicked in these situations.   Distract children with games, books, and electronic devices. Talk to other passengers. Acknowledge their stress and feelings and help de-escalate any intense emotions by gently encouraging a positive outlook.

TL;DR in Russian:

Постарайтесь с пользой провести время в аэропорту. Сохраняйте позитивный настрой Регулярно вставайте и ходите, чтобы размять ноги. Старайтесь сохранять спокойствие.


While you’re studying math or working on your homework, make your environment as distraction-free as possible. Put the cell phone aside and turn off the TV. Don’t have anything other than your textbook and a calculator on your desk, as you might be tempted to play with the object and lose concentration. If studying with friends distracts you from your work, plan to do your math work alone. If it helps, you could set a timer (say, for 1 hour) and aim to concentrate on the work before you in the time you’ve set aside for it. There will plenty of time for the other things later. Your detailed notes won’t do you much good if you never refer back to them! When you sit down to do your homework or solve a few math problems, take 10–15 minutes to re-read the notes you took during the previous math lecture. This will keep the steps you’ll use to solve an equation or calculate a variable fresh in your mind and prevent any potential misunderstandings. If you’re confused by your notes or can’t read your own handwriting, try re-reading the chapter of your math textbook that you’re currently working through. Doing this will help you to understand the mathematical topics you’re currently working on. Instead of viewing your math homework as an obligation, look at it as a great way to improve your math skills on your own! To that end, make sure that you do 100% of the problems on each assignment you’re given. If you’re not quite sure how to do an assigned problem or feel like it’s over your head, speak to your teacher after class and ask for their help. If you’d rather not ask the teacher, you could also ask one of your peers or friends how to solve a tricky problem. Once you are finished with the assigned homework problems, try working a few extra ones in an area of math that you’re struggling to understand. After completing 3–5 extra problems, check your answers against those given in the back of the book. If one of your answers is incorrect, check your work and find where you slipped up. Working extra problems is a great...
