If you do not have access to a grill brush, you can use household products like tin foil to clean the grates. Ball up aluminum foil, making a ball large enough to fit over your fingers. Then, run the aluminum foil over the grates to remove any debris and clean them. Clean the grates with tin foil when they are cool or not too hot to prevent burning your fingers. Make sure there is enough tin foil on your fingers to create a buffer between your fingers and the grates. If your porcelain grill grates are really dirty, you can try applying a baking soda solution to them. Make a paste by combining ½ cup (90 g) of baking soda with 1⁄4 cup (59 ml) of warm water. Apply the paste to the grill grates. Let it sit for 20 minutes and then clean it off with a soft bristle grill brush.  Make sure you get all of the paste off before you cook anything on the grill, and clean the brush when you’re done. You could remove the grates and let the solution soak overnight, if necessary, in a sink or tub. Rinse the solution off then replace the grates and clean them with a grill brush. If the grime and grease on the grates do not come off with just a brush, you can try dipping the grill brush in water and using it to clean the grates. A wet grill brush can help to remove debris on the grates effectively.  Let the grill grates heat up. Then, dip the grill brush in a bucket of water to get it wet. Run the wet grill brush over the grates in a diagonal motion, starting from the bottom of the grate and going upward. Dip the grill brush back in the bucket of water to rinse it and continue to clean any other areas on the grates with the wet brush.

If you do not have an ice cream maker, don't worry; you can still make this ice cream. Try to use coconut cream if you can; it will give you the creamiest ice cream. If you cannot find any, you can use full-fat coconut milk. Be sure to shake the cans well before opening them and pouring the contents into the blender/food processor. This recipe will give you basic vanilla-coconut flavored ice cream. You can add some extra ingredients to enhance the flavor of your ice cream, however. Here are some idea to get you started:  If you want chocolate ice cream, increase the sweetener to ⅔ cup (135 grams) and add ¾ cup (75 grams) of cocoa powder.  For mint chocolate chip ice cream: use ½ teaspoon of mint extract instead of vanilla extract, and ½ cup (65 grams) of powdered sugar instead of your usual sweetener. If you want the ice cream to be green, add 2 drops of green gel food coloring.  If you want to make strawberry ice cream, purée 2½ to 3 cups (500 to 600 grams) of sliced, frozen strawberries, then add the rest of the ingredients. You may want to decrease the sweetener to ⅓ cup (65 grams) and the vanilla extract to ¼ teaspoon. This should only take 1 to 2 minutes. From time to time, you may have to pause the blender/food processor, and scrape any lumps or clumps down the sides and towards the bottom. Follow the instructions that came with your ice cream maker, as each one will be a little different. It will take about 20 minutes for the ice cream to freeze. If you don't have an ice cream maker: pour the mixture into a metal loaf pan and stir in your extras. Put it into the freezer, and cover it with a sheet of wax paper. Stir it every 30 to 60 minutes with a whisk. It will take about 6 hours for the ice cream to freeze. At this point, your ice cream is done and ready for freezing. You can, however, step it up by adding in ¼ to ½ cup (50 to 100 grams) of extras, such as chopped nuts, sprinkles, or chocolate chips. Be sure to match your extras to the base flavor!  If you are making mint chocolate chip ice cream,...

Смешайте все ингредиенты вместе до однородной массы. Заморозьте основу мороженого в мороженице. Если хотите, то вмешайте любые добавки с помощью лопаточки. Переложите мороженое в контейнер и уберите в морозильную камеру хотя бы на 4 часа.


If you do not have hurricane shutters, consider installing them. You can also replace your windows with hurricane glass. Both will provide protection from shattering glass during strong winds. This style of roof has a 30-degree pitch or less. On older homes, retrofit existing roofs with hurricane straps, gables, and end brackets or braces. Clean gutters can prevent damage to your home during long periods of heavy rain. Pick up and dispose of all limbs, sticks and other debris on or near your property. Items like these can become airborne during high winds. These will become flying projectiles in the high winds and can get swept away by floodwaters if your house is near the coast.

If you do not have it, Microsoft currently offers a free trial of the office suite. This is located on the right side of the menu bar. For Office 365 users, there may instead be a “Draw” tab. This will contain all of the same controls normally included in “Inking”. If you do not see it, you may need to update your version of Office or the feature may not be supported on your system. This is located on the right side of the toolbar and will bring up a new set of drawing tools. This button, on the left, selects the pen tool for making basic line drawings. This tool acts as a thicker version of the pen tool with transparency, allowing you to ink over text or other drawings without covering them. After selecting, click and drag the cursor over other lines to erase the drawn content. Click the down arrow on the “Eraser” button to select a thickness setting for your eraser. Select the “Color” dropdown in the “Pen” section of the toolbar to select from a color palette for different pen/highlighter colors. Select the “Thickness” dropdown in the “Pen” section of the toolbar to select different widths of your pen/highlighter marking. You can also select color/thickness presets from the menu to the left of the “Color” and “Thickness” dropdowns. This will auto-adjust any shape approximations into the detected shape. For example, drawing a circle, will adjust the lines to be a perfect circle.  The feature will also approximate a shape based on the number of lines drawn (square, hexagon, etc.).  This only works on shapes after the feature has been selected. Shapes drawn before clicking “Convert to Shapes” will not be changed”. This tool allows you to click and drag drawn items to move them around on the screen. You can also click “Lasso” and draw a circle around the area you are trying to select if you are having difficulty. The Lasso tool will only work on drawn items. This button will automatically selects the “Select” tool after making edits with the pen or highlighter tool. If no edits were made this button will return...

If you do not have one, you can ask your mom whether you may go over to your buddies house (that is in your class) and maybe play a studying game, but be sure to get the needed studying done. Everyone learns differently, and for some, talking out loud helps cement ideas into your head. Discuss sample test questions or homework problems with each other. Take turns asking each other questions, or quizzing each other on vocab words. Set the timer and see who can finish filling in their worksheet/writing their notes the fastest. The slowest person loses. However, this method might not be the best method as it isn't always fair - some people would rather take their time. For example the first person to leave without finishing their assignment isn't allowed to go to the upcoming school formal. Pretend you're a character from TV or Broadway etc - or make up your own character. Physically turn your notes into a script and memorize your 'lines' by talking it out loud, over and over again. Then when you memorize the entire script, talk out loud as you would if you were your chosen character. You could even use funny accents if you like, you could even sing it Broadway-style. If you're really confident, you can perform the skit in front of friends, teachers, parents etc...and make them laugh! It helps if you are a tactile learner (you learn by touching) or a verbal learner (you learn by talking). It seems a bit crazy at first but when you think about it, it actually works, especially if you do it with a friend. By looking at it this way, it doesn't seem like boring study at all! Do something fun, such as watch TV or play video games or a board game.

TL;DR in Russian:

Если дома у вас есть старший брат или сестра, вы можете учиться вместе, у вас будет компания. Говорите вслух. Спрашивайте друг друга. Соревнуйтесь друг с другом.

Учитесь в тишине, в одном и том же месте и не забывайте делать перерыв через каждых полчаса или час.


If you do not have to be out inclement weather, try your best to avoid it. If you live in a climate when you get ice and snow, tune in daily or hourly to get an updated look at conditions. This will help you dress properly and minimize fall risk. Does your morning commute include walking up a steep hill? If it does, you might want to find an alternative route if that hill is prone to getting slippery in the rain or snow. Practice driving or walking various routes to find the safest conditions. People can sometimes have a lot on their minds and may not be paying attention to their surroundings. Avoid falling by looking out for uneven ground, broken terrain, curbs, and other hazards. Make sure you aware appropriate clothing and footwear in order to ensure that you do not accidentally fall. This may include rain boots for wet conditions, or sturdy footwear. Women should avoid wearing high heels if walking in soft terrain. Look for safety rails and ramps to assist you in walking or climbing. Be aware of signs that state warnings of dangerous areas or terrain. You can face falling hazards in your home. You may trip over a pet or an item that is out place. Make sure that items such as pet bowls and shoes are put away to avoid accidental falling. Establish a house cleaning routine to keep your living space free of clutter.

If you do not have yarn, you may use thread in its place. Now the base of the sock should resemble a bag. This will be the rat's body. This step is optional, as your cat will probably want to chase a rodent-shaped toy with or without the incentive of catnip. Sew it closed. You can decide how tightly you want to sew the body shut. Some cats may want to open the toy up to access the catnip more directly; other cats may be content playing with the toy as it is. Do this by cutting two circles out of the scraps from the heel of the sock. The toy should begin to take shape at this point. You can sew the "tail" in place, but if you're using catnip you'll want to refresh the filling from time to time. It may be easier to bind the tail shut with a stretchy fabric length or ribbon. As with other predator/prey cat toys, this should spark your cat's natural instinct to hunt.

If you do not mind wild rabbits visiting your yard, you can create an area of your yard where the wild rabbits can eat. Since wild rabbits tend to like wooded or shrubby areas on the edges of a particular area, consider creating a small brush pile near the edge of your yard or garden for the wild rabbits.  In the summer, when rabbits like to eat grasses and weeds, leave an area of your lawn partially uncut—this allows grass and/or weeds to grow up, and can also provide a sheltered area for the wild rabbits to eat. If the wild rabbits feel safe in your yard, do not be surprised if they eat grass all day.  During the colder months, when rabbits eat more barks and twigs, you can make a small pile of these items in a corner of your yard.  Be aware that placing food in these spots could attract other wild animals to your yard. Whether wild or domesticated, grass and hay are staples of a rabbit’s diet. The wild rabbits in your yard will have an abundance of grass to chew on, but will probably not have ready access to hay. The recommended types of hay for wild rabbits are oat, and timothy. Alfalfa hay should only be given to older rabbits. Avoid giving adult rabbits alfalfa, as it is too high in protein, calcium, and sugar.  Visit your local pet store or feed store to purchase the hay. Do not spray pesticides in  your yard in which you are feeding wild rabbits. The pesticides could make the wild rabbits very sick. Pellets are a great nutritional source for rabbits. Pellets with seeds are ideal for wild rabbits. Keep in mind that pellets tend to be very nutrient dense—you do not need to feed them in large quantities. Look for pellets at your local pet store. If you can approximate the sizes of the wild rabbits, you could ask the staff at the pet store about an adequate amount of pellets to feed the rabbits. Give them at least three different types of greens per feeding, and including one that is high in vitamin A. For the wild rabbits in your yard, you can give them:  Collard greens (high in vitamin A) Beet greens...

If you do not own a shop vacuum, you can rent one from most home improvement stores. These machines work great to suck-up moisture that lies deep within fabrics. This product comes in white granules and works to absorb moisture. It can hold double its weight in water and liquefies as it absorbs moisture. Here is how to properly use anhydrous calcium chloride:  Put the granules in a waxed cardboard container that has perforated holes. Place the container in an enameled pot to collect the liquid that drips away from the container. Leave the pot in the automobile until only liquid is let in the container and then refill it. This is a helpful tip to consider when there is too much moisture for you to get rid of on your own. The heat from the sun will warm up the inside of the car and work to evaporate some of the moisture left behind on seats, the floor and anywhere the mold smell originates.

If you do not pay your phone bill, you must understand that the phone is not yours. Make an effort to respect the rules that have been put in place. If you are unclear about these rules, discuss them with your parents. Your parents are likely to give you a set of expectations that must be met in order to get your phone returned. Work diligently to meet these expectations.  For example, if your phone usage costed your parents a lot of extra money, they might request that you pay that portion of the bill. Find odd jobs and chores that you can do to earn some extra money to pay off that debt to your parents. If your parents took your phone away because of poor grades, study every night to ensure that your grades improve. Show your parents your next test grade to prove that you are taking your grades seriously. You need to prove to your parents that you take their concerns seriously and will not repeat your mistake. You can prove this to them by repeatedly meeting their requests, instead of simply meeting them when you get in trouble. This will also prevent your phone from being taken away in the future.

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите, кому на самом деле принадлежит телефон. Исправьте ошибку. Старайтесь оправдать ожидания родителей.


If you do not receive a copy of your contract within a few days of making a follow up telephone call, write a demand letter. You want the recipient of the letter to be as clear as possible about which contract you would like copied and sent to you. Give the names of the parties, the subject of the contract, and the date on which it was executed, or signed. Make it as easy as possible to respond to your request quickly and efficiently. If it is easy to comply, you are more likely to get a response.  For example, you might write, “please mail a copy of the contract to me at the following address” and provide your mailing address and a self-addressed stamped envelope. You also might write, "please leave a copy of the contract with my secretary," and provide a physical address where it can be delivered. You also could provide your e-mail address and write, “please e-mail a copy of the contract to me at the following e-mail address.” Name the exact date or time period by which you should receive a copy of the contract. For example, you could give the recipient 10 days or a deadline of September 1, 2015. Let the recipient know what will happen if he or she fails to comply with your request and provide you with a copy of the contract.  For example, you could write, “If I do not receive the requested information by the date specified, I will be forced to hire an attorney.” You also could write, “Failure to comply with this demand will result in legal action against you.” If all else fails, and you find yourself still without a copy of the contract, hire an attorney. You may have legal options that will force the other party to produce the contract for your review. Oftentimes, receiving a threatening letter from an attorney is just what is needed to force a party to comply with simple requests, such as mailing a copy of a contract. In some cases, another agency may have a copy of the contract on file. For instance, if you live in government-subsidized housing, your landlord is typically required to file a copy of your...

TL;DR in Russian:

Потребуйте копию контракта в письменной форме. Опишите контракт. Дайте особые инструкции по поводу выполнения вашего требования. Установите сроки. Предупредите о последствиях отказа от предоставления документа. Проявите настойчивость. Узнайте, есть ли копия контракта у другой компании.


If you do not think you are getting enough nutrients from your diet, consider taking a multivitamin with minerals each day.  Talk with your doctor before making any changes to your existing medication regimen, including adding or altering vitamin and mineral products. Taking a multivitamin with minerals helps to ensure you are getting an adequate daily intake of vitamins as well as micronutrients in case your daily diet is not what it should be. Taking large doses of any one vitamin or mineral is not recommended. Large doses of zinc especially are not recommended and can cause an upset stomach.  There is evidence that consuming adequate amounts of the micronutrients helps to maintain the natural function of your immune system. These include selenium, zinc, iron, copper, folic acid, vitamins A, B6, E, and C. Selenium is a mineral that has antioxidant properties It is found in foods like Brazil nuts, liver, shellfish, tuna, beef, and chicken. It is being researched for its potential to help your natural immune system fight off the progression of different types of cancer.  The research is not related to viral infections like the common cold, but the work is helping scientists to better understand possible ways to boost the immune response to different diseases. Selenium helps the cells in your body with normal metabolism and has been identified as possibly having anti-inflammatory properties considered useful in fighting some diseases, such as some forms of arthritis.  Most people get enough selenium from their diet. There is no need to take supplemental selenium unless your doctor feels you are deficient and recommends that you do so. The recommended daily dose is about 55mcg. Taking vitamin A has proven helpful when there is an actual deficiency, but most people get enough vitamin A from diets that contain sweet potatoes, carrots, dark green and leafy vegetables, fish, and fruits.  There is no evidence to suggest taking vitamin A is beneficial in helping to fight infections in people that are not vitamin A...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте о том, чтобы принимать пищевые добавки с витаминами и микроэлементами. Проследите, чтобы ваш рацион питания содержал селен. Подумайте о том, чтобы принимать витамин A. Узнайте у врача, не надо ли вам дополнительно принимать витамины B2 и B6. Принимайте витамины D и E. Принимайте цинк.


If you do not use treatments correctly, they may not effectively remove lice eggs. Make sure you avoid common pitfalls when treating head lice.  Using conditioner with medicated shampoo can prevent treatment from working successfully. Conditioner can act as a barrier, preventing head lice medication from reaching the scalp. Avoid using conditioner when applying medicated shampoos.  Follow all instructions carefully when using shampoo. Oftentimes, people neglect to read the full instructions and this results in treatment being ineffective. Make sure you apply a second treatment and wait the appropriate time. If you retreat too soon after the first treatment, not all the eggs will have hatched and you may not remove all the lice.  Reinfestation is also common. You may kill all the lice on your head or your child's head but then encounter new lice from another person or your environment. Make sure you avoid people who are currently infested with head lice and treat your home to remove any lice that have wandered from your scalp. Lice usually don't live long after being separated from the scalp. However, as a precaution you should wash any items the infested person used. Wash fabrics, bedding, stuffed animals, and clothing in hot water and then dry at high heat. If you have any items that can't be washed, seal them in a plastic bag for two weeks. In rare cases, lice can get on carpeting or furniture. To be safe, vacuum upholstered furniture and carpeted floors regularly until the infestation has passed. As lice can get into supplies you use on your scalp, such items should be washed. Wash brushes, hair ties, hair accessories, hats, and any other items used on your hair in warm, soapy water.

TL;DR in Russian:

Узнайте о причинах, которые могут привести к провалу лечения. Постирайте всю одежду в доме. Пропылесосьте ковры и мягкую мебель. Мойте расчески и принадлежности для укладки волос.


If you do not want to confront the person about their lack of thanks, you may need to work on accepting the situation as it is. Keep in mind the person’s lack of thanks may have nothing to do with you or with your gift. Sometimes people do not say “thank you” for their own personal reasons and you are not responsible for their actions.  For example, perhaps the person has poor interactional skills and does not know how to say “thank you” properly. Or maybe the person feels embarrassed by receiving a gift and does not feel comfortable saying “thank you.” Think about the person's character and personality. Consider if they are just not comfortable saying “thank you” and try to accept that you cannot control their actions or their preferences. You can also try to take a more generous stance on not receiving a thank you by seeing it as a selfless act. Giving to others without expectation of reciprocation can help you build empathy for others. It can also make giving gifts more enjoyable, as you are doing it only for the other person’s enjoyment and not just so you can receive thanks or praise. Giving without expectation can also be useful for building a reputation for being generous and thoughtful with no strings attached. Your friends and colleagues may come to see you as someone who gives freely without expectation, a quality to be admired. Try not to get too hung up on squeezing a thank you out of the person or forcing them to show appreciation. Work on moving on from the issue so you do not let it cloud your day or get you down. Though the person may not have said “thank you,” you will likely receiving thanks and praise from other people you give gifts to. Do not let one person spoil your entire outlook on gift giving. For example, you may tell yourself to let go of the issue and take a few deep breaths to release it and move on. You may then focus instead on the people who did say thank you to you for your gift.

TL;DR in Russian:

Имейте в виду, что отсутствие благодарности, скорее всего, не имеет к вам никакого отношения. Помните, что лучше отдавать, не ожидая ничего взаимен. Двигайтесь дальше.


If you do not want to use iTunes or WMP, there is a plethora of third-party software out there. Perhaps you are dedicated to open-source software or just prefer the feature set of another media player, or maybe you don’t use your computer for music listening and have no need for a media player at all. When downloading any software, it is always best to get it from the original developer website. This helps to ensure that the installer has not been tampered with or loaded with extra software or malware. If a developer does not host the file for download on their own site, there is usually a list of trusted mirrors to use instead. VLC Media Player and Foobar2000 are two free media players that are popular for their speed, customizability, and broad codec (filetype) support. Since these programs are still media players, the process of burning an Audio CD will be very similar to using WMP or iTunes. Foobar2000 is for Windows only. InfraRecorder and IMGBurn are two free, no-nonsense burning programs for those who do not need playback support. These programs boast a more comprehensive array of burning options, like mixed mode, which allows user to create hybrid audio/data CDs.  Because these programs support more complex burning features, this options is recommended for more advanced users or those who really don’t want the extra weight of a media player. Both InfraRecorder and IMGBurn are Windows-only. “Burn” is a strong, simple option for Mac users.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выберите программу. Воспользуйтесь другим медиаплеером. Воспользуйтесь специальной программой для записи дисков.


If you do not wish to make a string of beads but would rather attach charms or beads to a chain, then purchasing a chain will be very important. These come in a variety of sizes and can be further trimmed down with wire cutters or pliers. There are many different types of claps. You will have to choose what is best for your project, based on what type of jewelry it is as well as the size and weight of the string and beads. Clasps can also be chosen for aesthetic appeal or they can be left simple and downplayed.  Lobster clasp. The most common clasp for necklaces and bracelets in recent years, the lobster clasp is fairly strong and easy to use. Toggle. Toggles are good for a more streamlined, modern look. They are especially appropriate for pieces with a chunky appearance. These are simple clasps which are easy to use but less secure than some others. Barrel clasp. This is a very secure clasp which consists of two tube shapes pieces which screw together. It is best used on necklaces, however, as there is a certain level of dexterity involved in closing it. Hook and eye. A simple clasp and one easily made yourself with the proper tools, the hook and eye consists of a hook and loop. This is less secure and best used on heavy necklaces which have the weight to hold the clasp closed. Frequently used in jewelry-making, beads can provide interest for a simple chain or they can be strung together to back up a more opulent pendant. Beads can be inexpensive or pricey depending on their material and they do come in a very wide range of materials. Beads can be found in all colors and made from ranging materials: plastic, glass, wood, shell, bone, stone, clay, polymer, and a wide variety of other materials as well. You may wish to give your jewelry a bit of bling and use either real or fake gemstones. Be sure that if you plan to use stones, you have the proper setting with which to place it on your project. Gems can be relatively less expensive or highly expensive, depending on the size, type and quality of the stone....

If you do not wish to move forward with the relationship, you will need to break up with your boyfriend. Find a good time to talk in person. You do not need to provide an elaborate explanation or justify how you feel. You can simply end things respectfully.  For example, you might say, “I’ve thought this over, and because you cheated on me, I don’t want to be in a relationship with you anymore.” Deliver your news in a calm way. Try not to be vindictive, even if you’re hurt. Just because you were not treated well by your boyfriend does not mean you need to stoop to his level. If your boyfriend has violent tendencies, be sure to let a friend or relative know where you will be breaking up and when. It can also help to break up in a public place with other people around. You could say something to them like, “I’m breaking up with Mark today at 3PM in the park. If I’m not home by 4PM, please call the police.” After your relationship ends, you may be full of mixed emotions. Take some time to focus on yourself and restore your self-esteem. It may be helpful to reconnect with people and activities you enjoy that fell by the wayside during your relationship.  For example, if you used to love painting, you might join a neighborhood painting class. The idea is just to connect with yourself as an individual rather than as part of your old couple. It is helpful to take all the time you need to heal before entering into a new relationship. Take the time you need to strengthen your friendships and relationship with family, and learn to take care of yourself before you start a new relationship.

TL;DR in Russian:

Скажи прямо. Примите меры предосторожности, если ваш парень жесток. Сосредоточьтесь на себе на некоторое время.


If you do plan to use herbicide on the tree, then the hack and squirt method can be just as effective as the girdling method with even less work involved. The hack and squirt method uses precise chops to coat with herbicide instead of an entire band around the whole tree. Start by getting an axe or a hatchet. The hack and squirt method requires fewer cuts than girdling, but you will still use the same herbicides. Read the entire label on the herbicide to figure out how much to make. Mix the herbicide in a spray bottle before you begin cutting.  Commonly available, effective herbicides include glyphosate (Roundup or Killzall) and triclopyr (Garlon or Brush B Gon).  Wear protective clothing, like safety glasses, long sleeves, and gloves before working with any herbicide. Using the axe or hatchet, make a downward cut into the trunk of the tree roughly 2 inches (5.1 cm) long. The cut needs to be deep enough to get into the lighter-colored sapwood, so you can effectively introduce the herbicide. Once you have made the cut, pull the head of the axe or hatchet to the edge of the cut rather than out completely. Then use the spray bottle to spray the herbicide down the top side of the hatchet, allowing it run down into the deep sapwood portion of the cut.  Make sure you spray in the herbicide immediately before the softer wood in the cut has a chance to start drying out and hardening. Your specific brand of herbicide will instruct you regarding how much herbicide to spray into each cut. Various specially made injectors are also available for this purpose if you need to treat several trees. Your specific brand of herbicide will have directions for how many cuts you need to make based on the circumference of the tree. Most trees will require additional cuts with the spacing 1–3 inches (2.5–7.6 cm) apart from edge to edge. For each cut in the trunk that your brand of herbicide suggests, you want to add the same amount of herbicide. Continue using the injector or the flat side of the axe or hatchet to spray the herbicide...

TL;DR in Russian:

Возьмите топор или тесак. Разведите гербицид в пульверизаторе. Сделайте зарубку на стволе дерева. Распылите гербицид внутрь зарубки. Продолжайте делать надсечки, как указано выше. Продолжайте обрабатывать гербицидом каждый надрез.


If you do so, remember that you will need to let go of the past and focus on your future together. You both may want to take things slowly similar to how you did when you dated the first time. If it's yes, make sure he knows where you're coming from immediately, especially if you are truly giving your relationship another chance. It's important to be very clear, as it may be a case where he assumes that he knows how you feel, especially when it comes to him. Honesty is the key to any great relationship. If your answer is no, then you can just say “no.” You don’t have to offer an explanation. However, it is important to be direct with your answer. This will save you the embarrassment of him asking you again, and him the embarrassment of you saying no again.  If a simple “no” doesn’t seem to work, you may need to be more firm in your replies. Try saying something like, “I appreciate the sentiment, but I am not interested in giving this another try. Please stop asking me.” The most important thing to keep in mind is that you need to do what is right for you. If he is making you uncomfortable by continuing to ask repeatedly, then feel free to block him from contacting you. Block his number in your phone so he can’t call or text you; block him on Facebook and Gmail; and delete him from all of your other social media accounts. If he continues harassing you, tell him you will report him to the police and apply for a temporary restraining order (TPO). Whatever the outcome of your decision, take some time to ease back into the new situation – whether it’s a relationship together or moving forward on your own. Don’t expect to jump straight back to the place you were at before you broke up. There may be trust issues or distance between you that you’ll have to overcome together. Give yourself time to adjust to being together or to being on your own without him for real. These things take time, so don’t beat yourself up about it if you need some time to adjust or to heal.

TL;DR in Russian:

Примите предложение, если хотите снова пойти с ним на свидание. Попросите его перестать звать вас на свидание. Не торопитесь.


If you do this too hard and fast, you may hurt the other person, which will force your teeth and gums against your lips -- you could end up hurting yourself, too. Once you're comfortable with these kisses, start kissing your partner more passionately while still only using your lips. You can still generate plenty of passion without going for the full-on tongue kiss. If you're the only one in the duo with braces, you might want to warn your partner about this. Whether you're wearing braces or your partner is, you should part your lips widely enough and open your mouths enough that your tongue moves between your partner's teeth and doesn't get stuck on the braces. If you run up against the braces, you can end up cutting your lips or gums, and your partner can hurt his tongue if it brushes up against your braces. Sure, you should go slowly at first, but that can build anticipation, and make the kissing even more exciting. So, once your tongue is comfortably between your partner's teeth and both of your tongues are positioned away from your braces, then you should be comfortable with exploring your partner's mouth. Move your tongue in circles, or just gently move it up and down and enjoy the sensation. Don't worry about your braces getting stuck together, either. That is an absolute myth! Braces are not magnetic.

TL;DR in Russian:

Прижмите нежно ваши губы к губам вашего партнера. Держите языки подальше от скоб. Не бойтесь пойти на это.


If you do this, you will be ready for the long night. Have an afternoon nap, or a long sleep the day before. If you can, sleep for at least 12 hours the night before, or sleep before your friends come over. If you don't like coffee, drink soda. Some good examples are Red Bull, Dr. Pepper, Monster, Mountain Dew, and Coke. Also, try mixing hot chocolate with instant coffee and milk. Eating something spicy is just like pinching yourself, but with more burning. Try spicy Cheetos, spicy noodles, spicy chips, and anything else that's spicy. Just try not to eat too much, as a full stomach can cause drowsiness. Sugar can make you more active and move around more. Eat candy, chocolate, ice cream, cookies, cake, and any other sugary treats. You could also eat sour gummy worms and icebreakers so that you'll be energized by the constant sour, and the candy will give you some sugar too. When you're mouth is busy chewing and biting, you won't be as likely to fall asleep. Your chewing mouth sends signals to your brain that food is on its way, which helps you stay awake. And chewing without swallowing helps you avoid post-meal tiredness. It is difficult to sleep if you have a full bladder. It will make you have to keep moving. Not to mention that water is also healthy for you, and a lack of water can tire you out. If you're really feeling the drowsiness, a splash of cold water will help. Go to the bathroom sink, run the water, and just give your face a few splashes of water. It stimulates the nerves and re-energizes your body. If you keep moving, your body will stay circulated and you will become hyper. Try activities such as jumping jacks or push-ups to help you wake up. Make up games with your sleepover buddies that involve moving around, rather than just playing video games and watching things on TV. Have a pillow fight! This will keep you and your friends active and having fun. If you do have a pillow fight, try to keep the volume down, or do it somewhere where the sound doesn't echo!

TL;DR in Russian:

Поспите максимально долго за ночь до события. Пейте кофе или кофеиносодержащие напитки. Ешьте острую пищу. Попробуйте есть сладкие закуски. Жуйте мятную жевательную резинку. Пейте много воды. Ополосните лицо холодной водой. Много двигайтесь.


If you do, take an at-home pregnancy test. With most tests, you'll place the end of a dipstick into a small container of your urine, or move a testing stick into your urine flow. Within a few minutes, the dipstick should indicate results by changing colors, showing the words "pregnant" or "not pregnant" on the stick, or symbols.  Most pregnancy tests will not be reliably accurate until the fifth week of pregnancy. Instructions for home pregnancy tests vary. Follow the directions on the test you choose. Home pregnancy tests check for the presence of the hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) which accompanies pregnancy. Although at-home pregnancy tests rarely give false positives, they can give false negatives if it is early in the pregnancy. If you feel you are within a week or two of implantation, you should test twice.  Take the home pregnancy test first thing in the morning when your urine is concentrated. Drinking too much fluid before taking a home pregnancy test can result in a false negative. A false positive result can occur in cases where hormonal changes with menopause are occurring or if you are receiving HcG injections as part of infertility treatment. If you are consistently getting positive results in a home pregnancy test, or your symptoms of pregnancy persist despite getting negative results, call your gynecologist or family doctor. Blood tests that doctors perform can pick up on pregnancy quicker than at-home urine tests.  The sooner your pregnancy is confirmed, the sooner you can learn about options. Your healthcare provider can discuss options for your pregnancy with you. If you plan to continue your pregnancy, your healthcare provider can help you with prenatal care.

TL;DR in Russian:

Определите, есть ли у вас два и более ранних признаков беременности. Сделайте тест повторно через неделю или обратитесь в лабораторию. Обратитесь к врачу.


If you doctor or specialist thinks your neck is stable enough to handle the rigors of physiotherapy, then start as soon as you can. People who keep moving their necks in some capacity (even just basic stretches and mobilizations) have a better prognosis with their whiplash injuries. Your physiotherapist will assess your neck and then develop a recovery plan that includes specific and tailored stretches and strengthening exercises.  With a referral / prescription from your doctor, physiotherapy is usually covered by private health insurance. For pain control, a physiotherapist can use a TENS (transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation) unit or therapeutic ultrasound on your neck and shoulders. If need be, a physiotherapist can stimulate, contract and strengthen your neck and shoulder muscles with an electronic muscle stimulation device. Injured muscles and tendons quickly become tight and spasm. As soon as you can after your whiplash injury, and within pain tolerance, start stretching the muscles of the front, back and sides of your neck in order to keep them pliable. Additionally, slowly moving your neck in all directions (mobilizations) keeps the muscles flexible and prevents the spinal joints from getting too stiff. Use slow, steady movements and take deep breaths during your stretches. In general, hold stretches for about 30 seconds and repeat three to five times daily.  Lateral neck muscle stretch: while standing, reach around your back with your right arm and grab a little above your left wrist. Gently pull on your left wrist while laterally flexing your neck in the opposite direction, such that your right ear approaches your right shoulder. Hold for 30 seconds, then do the other side. General neck mobilization: start with moving your head in circles, first clockwise and then counterclockwise, for about five to 10 minutes each way. Target the main movements of your neck: forward flexion (looking down at your toes), lateral flexion (ear towards your shoulders) and extension (looking up towards the sky)....

TL;DR in Russian:

Получите направление в физиотерапевту. Начните с простых потягиваний. Выполняйте изометрические силовые упражнения. Попробуйте выполнять силовые упражнения с инвентарем.


If you don't agree with what everyone else is saying, speak up. Maybe you don't like the way everyone is making fun of someone, or maybe you have a political opinion different from a friend’s. It's ok if you happen to agree with everyone else, but if not, don't be afraid to speak up. Just make sure you do so respectfully. For example, if everyone loves eating at a certain restaurant, but you don't like the food, simply say, "It's not my favorite." How do you naturally speak when you're talking to yourself? That's how you should talk to everyone else. Don't dumb yourself down around some people and try to sound smarter around others. Use words you're comfortable with rather than slang terms you don't like or long words you don't understand. If you like using slang or impressive vocabulary words, that's ok too. Just be sure you're speaking that way for yourself though, not to sound like someone else. If you lie about how you feel, you aren't letting people know who you really are. Focus less on what someone’s reaction will be, and think about how this will help someone understand you better. For example, if someone asks you to go dancing, and that's something you don't enjoy doing, tell them that. Then offer to do something else with them so they don't take it personally.

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте готовы выразить непопулярное мнение. Пользуйтесь привычной для вас лексикой. Делитесь своими настоящими чувствами.

If you don't already have a Honedge, don't worry — they're not especially hard to find in Pokémon X and Y. You'll want to look in Route Six, which is the area connecting Route Seven to the Parfum Palace. Route Six is marked by two rows of shade trees along the sides of a central path. However, to find Honedge, you need to get to the tall grass behind the trees, which means entering the palace grounds and immediately exiting through one of the side paths.  Note that Honedges appear approximately 15% of the time in the tall grass. You will probably have to fight a handful of Oddishes and Sentrets before you encounter a Honedge.  It's also possible to get Honedge in Alpha Sapphire/Omega Ruby. However, this can only be done through trading. You can't catch Honedge in the wild in these games. There isn't a special strategy to catching the Honedges in Route Six. Once you get into a fight with one, get it down to a low HP level (without making it faint) and throw your best Pokéball at it. The Honedges you will encounter will be about level 11 or 12, so the fight shouldn't be too difficult. However, here are some things you may want to know:  Honedges are extra-weak versus ghost, fire, ground, and dark type attacks. Honedges are immune to normal, fighting, and poison type attacks. Honedges take normal damage from water and electric type attacks. Honedges take reduced damage from every other type. There's nothing out-of-the ordinary about the way you must level up your Honedge — just keep training it slowly and steadily. Since you'll catch your Honedge at about level 11 or 12, you have about 23 or 24 levels to gain until it will evolve. This can take some time, but it will be a little faster if you use experience-boosting items like:   Exp. Share: This item gives experience to all the Pokémon in your party — not just the ones that participate in the battle. You can get the Exp. Share from Alexa in Santalune City after defeating Viola.   Lucky Egg: The Pokémon that holds this item will receive 150% of the normal...

If you don't already have it open, launch it by searching for "indexing options" on the Start screen. Advanced button. You'll need administrator access to change these options. If your account is not an administrator account, you'll be prompted to enter the administrator password. Most users don't need to worry about this option, but if you work with encrypted files often you'll likely want check this box. This will slow the search down. If your index file is too large for its current location, or you want to migrate it for other reasons, you can select a new location for it. The index file will be moved to this location after your computer reboots. By default, every new file extension that you add to Windows will be added to the list of file types that are indexed. You can remove specific file types so that they don't show up in search results. Most users don't need to worry about adjusting these settings.  Click the File Types tab to open a list of file types that are currently indexed. Uncheck the box next to each file type that you don't want to index. If there is something wrong with Windows Search or the index, rebuilding the index may help.

If you don't already have one, you'll need to go online and create an account on eBay.  The account is free and allows you to operate as a seller or a buyer.  Once you have an account, you can log in to My eBay and track your auctions, view bids and send and receive emails. Put some thought into the name you choose for your eBay user ID.  This is how you'll be known in the eBay community.  Pick something that's memorable but not weird, inoffensive and positive. When you sell on eBay, you can operate under the standard fee arrangement or choose to become a subscriber.   Among the differences are the number of free listing you get per month and the add-on fees you'll pay.  As someone who's new to selling on eBay, you'll probably want to operate under the standard fee agreement.  You'll pay no insertion fees on up to 50 listings per month and be charged a flat 10% final value fee when your item sells. There are three paid subscription accounts available on eBay.  Each comes at a slightly different cost per month (from $15.95 to $179.95), a different number of no-insertion-fee listings per month (from 150 to 2,500) and final value fees that range from 4 percent to 9 percent. PayPal allows your buyers to use a credit card or a checking account to pay for the items they buy from you.  It also allows you to sell internationally.  Buyers initiate the payment transaction with PayPal, and PayPal, in turn, transfers the money to your account.  It's not required that you have a PayPal account in order to sell on eBay, but it can be difficult to succeed without one.  Almost 90% of eBay users have a PayPal account. There's a feature on eBay that allows users to search for auctions by checking a box that says “only show sellers who take PayPal.”  It's a popular choice for people who don't want to be bothered with writing and mailing a check or using some other form of payment. It's best to start by selling things that you already have around your home.  Go room by room and look for things you no longer need or wear or...

If you don't already have squirrels, you can attract them to your yard quickly if they can easily find food. Set up the feeder near a tree or on a garden hook, and make sure it's easily accessible for you and the animals. Look for squirrel-specific feeders or simple mesh feeders so that the squirrels can easily locate and retrieve the food.  However, this can often mean that large birds and other animals may access the squirrel food. Try to keep these animals away as much as possible to encourage the squirrel visitors to stop by! It's best to try to hand feed the squirrels in your own yard, since it will take time for them to trust you. If you often visit a park or other area where squirrels eat, they might be willing to eat from your hand there. Make a mixture of tree nuts with shells, such as walnuts, hazelnuts, and acorns to promote gnawing. Add in some bird seed for extra nutrients, and place the mixture in a feeder outside. Keep it separate from other feeders so that the squirrels can easily access it from trees. If you’re worried about the squirrels getting into your other feeders, set up squirrel baffles, like wind chimes or reflective surfaces, to repel them. Place a few handfuls of grapes, apples, broccoli, or zucchini outside for the squirrels to eat. These will provide more nutrition and lure the squirrels back to your yard for a treat that they can’t find elsewhere! Keep track of what the squirrels seem to eat the most of. If they seem to like the grapes more than the apples, increase the amount of grapes you feed them. The squirrels will learn to trust you because you’re a reliable source of food. Create a safe outdoor space, such as a corner of a porch or a garden. Try to feed them at the same time every day so they don’t go elsewhere to look for treats. You might even notice that the squirrels will begin to come up to your windows to peer inside if there’s no food in the feeder! When you see squirrels, go outside and stand as close as you can to the feeder without scaring them off. Be very...

If you don't already know how short you want to cut your shirt, put it on, and make a mark on it where you want the new hem to be. You can use a dressmaker's chalk, dressmaker's pen, or even a sewing pin for this. Take the shirt off when you are done, and keep it turned inside out. This may also work on other shirts made from stretchy material. It is not recommended for shirts made out of woven material, such as linen, due to fraying. If you want to be extra neat, draw a line using a dressmaker's chalk or pen first, so you will know where to cut. Use a ruler to measure up from the bottom edge of the shirt as you draw the line. This will ensure that the shirt will be the same length all around. This will be the inside of your hem. Your shirt should now be the exact length you want it to be. You don't have to double-fold or finish the raw edge, because T-shirt material does not fray much, if at all. If you want a nicer finish on the inside, then you can serge the raw edge, but it is not necessary. Make sure that you use a heat setting that is safe for the material your shirt is made out of. This will give your shirt a nice, crisp edge all along the bottom. If you do not own a sewing machine, or if you do not know how to sew, slip some iron-on hem tape into the hem first. The results will be stiffer, but at least you won't have to do any sewing. Use a color that matches your shirt, and remove the pins as you sew. For a more professional finish, you can use a double-pointed needle. Alternatively, you can sew a second line right beneath the first one; this only works with the stretch-stitch, however.  If you are using iron-on hem tape, simply iron over the hem following the instructions on the package. Be sure to sew back and forth over the start and end of your sewing a few times to prevent unraveling. Try to start sewing at one of the side seams. This will help conceal the start and end of your sewing better. Your shirt is now ready to wear!

TL;DR in Russian:

Выверните футболку на изнаночную сторону. Обрежьте низ футболки на 1,5 см ниже желаемой длины. Подверните нижний срез на 1,5 см. Прогладьте подворот утюгом. Зафиксируйте подворот портновскими булавками. Проложите строчку зигзаг или иной трикотажный шов как можно ближе к необработанному срезу ткани. Обрежьте лишние нитки.


If you don't already know your waist measurement (for instance, from shopping for pants), it's very easy to find. Simply grab a tape measure and loop it around your midsection at your natural waist, which is usually at the top of your hips, just below the level of your belly button. Check the measurement where the tape starts to double up on itself — this is your waist circumference. Some women's belts are meant to be worn around the hips, rather than the waist. In this case, slide the tape measure a few inches down so that it sits naturally around the tops of your hips and measure as normal. Next, find some fabric for your belt. If you don't have any spare fabric handy at home, you can usually find it for fairly cheap at arts and crafts stores (and even online). Nearly any kind of comfortable, durable fabric is suitable for your belt. Regardless of the type of fabric you choose, you'll want a strip that's about seven inches (17.7 centimeters) longer than your waist measurement and five inches (12.7 centimeters) across. Below are just a few examples of fabrics that work well for belts:  Cotton (patterned or plain; "web" fabric is especially durable) Polyester Rayon Bamboo fabric Wool (can be expensive) When you have your fabric ready to go, lay it flat on your workspace lengthwise (so that it runs from left to right) and so that its design is facing down. Fold the left and right edges of the fabric in about 1/2 inch (1.27 centimeters). Use a hot iron to crease them down. Use a needle and thread or a sewing machine to sew these folds down with about a 1/4 inch (0.76 centimeter) seam allowance. This is done so that none of the fabric's edges are exposed in the final product. This is a basic rule of sewing — exposed fabric edges wear much faster than properly-folded seams, so they're to be avoided at all costs. Next, fold the top and bottom edges of the fabric in about 1/2 inch and iron them in place just as you did for the left and right edges. Next, fold the entire piece of fabric over itself lengthwise so...

If you don't care about maintaining the integrity of the nut and are working with a tougher nut to crack, then you may just want to place the nuts on a solid surface and hit them with a hammer. Aim to do it a bit more softly so you crack the shells without pulverizing the nuts. Now, this is likely to make a big mess or put a dent in your floor, so try placing them on a piece of cardboard or in a thick plastic bag outside, so you don't have any property damage as you try to break those stubborn nuts out of their shells.  This method is not for the faint of heart and does require some power. Once you're done, you can remove the nuts from the bag and peel off the extra shell. That's right. If you place the pine nut in the notched section of the can opener, right where the handles meet up, you can use the can opener as a kind of improvised nutcracker. This may do some damage to your can opener and it may take quite a while, as you'll be shelling the nuts one nut at a time, but it will give you the results you're looking for. Once you've cracked all of the shells of the nuts using a can opener, you can peel the remaining shells away with your hands. If you want to invest in a pine nut shelling machine, this can make your job much easier. Though you'll have to pony up some money up front, it can save you money in the end if you plan on regularly shelling pine nuts. Pine nuts are much cheaper shelled than unshelled, so this may save you money in the end. Here's all you have to do to use one:  Place pine nuts of a similar size into the machine so that it is adjusted for their side. When you've finished with nuts of that size, put in nuts of a different size. Wait for the nuts to come out of the machine without their shells. Brush off any extra shells and enjoy.

Пользуйтесь молотком. Пользуйтесь открывалкой для консервных банок. Используйте специальное устройство для очистки кедровых орехов.


If you don't feel comfortable wearing clothing that's skintight everywhere, choose outfits that are at least formfitting at your natural waist. This will make your waist look smaller, thus making your curves above and below your waist look larger by comparison.  Avoid “potato sack” clothing. If the fabric doesn't define your waist, you run the risk of looking straight and boyish. Fit and flare dresses are great for accentuating the waist, as well wrap dresses, peplum tops, pencil skirts, and high-waisted pieces. One simple belt can make a huge change in your silhouette. By marking your waistline with a thin belt or sash, you will can create an hourglass shape even in the baggiest of clothing. Use this trick to make any shapeless dress more flattering.  Tucking your shirt in at the waist will also help to show off your waist, helping to accentuate your curves. Another cute and easy way to accentuate your waist is to tie a shirt around it. You'll look effortlessly casual and curvy at the same time. Specifically, look for clothing that has a block of color down the middle, with different colors on the sides. When others see you, their eyes will be drawn to the middle color. The colors on the sides will be less noticeable. This will accentuate your waist by making it appear tinier, only the size of that middle block of color. Colorblock clothing works as an optical illusion to give your body that extra va-va-voom! Regardless of your size, wearing shapewear under your clothing can make your normal clothing even more flattering. Shapewear is usually made of spandex, which will smooth out the midsection to highlight your waist. In a way, shapewear “sucks everything in” so that you have curves in all the right places! Shapewear comes in all styles and colors, so you can find something that fits seamlessly under any outfit.

TL;DR in Russian:

If you don't feel comfortable with the tampon in, then it's likely that you didn't insert it correctly. You shouldn't be able to feel the tampon in at all if you did insert it properly. If you feel uncomfortable or like it's not all the way in, then you should remove it. You will even be able to tell if you didn't insert it properly because the bottom of the tampon may be visible outside of your vagina. If this is the case, it's time to try again. When you have the tampon in, you should be able to run, hike, bike, swim, or participate in any physical activity you want to do. Though you should remove a tampon every 6 to 8 hours at the longest, you may find that you will need to remove your tampon sooner if you're having a heavy flow. It's important to check on it every hour or two, especially when you're using tampons for the first time. If you find that you wipe yourself and see a lot of blood, or see blood in the toilet, then this is a sign that your tampon can't absorb any more blood and that it's time to take it out. (This can also be a sign that you didn't insert it all the way, which is also a reason to take it out.) Though the instructions on your box of tampons may say that you can flush the tampon, if you want to be safe and don't want to have to call the plumber because your tampon clogged up your old-fashioned toilet, then you may want to wrap it up in some toilet paper and throw it out. If you're in a public bathroom, you should see a bin either on the floor of the bathroom stall or on the side door, which you should use for discarding your used tampon. Once you remove your tampon, you can go ahead and insert another one. Most people don't sleep in tampons, and you may want to use a pad overnight instead, unless you plan on sleeping for less than 8 hours.  If your tampon string is wet with menstrual fluid, then it's time to change your tampon. If the tampon still feels difficult to remove and a bit "stuck," then it's because it hasn't absorbed enough menstrual fluid yet. If it's been less than...

TL;DR in Russian:

Убедитесь, что вам комфортно с тампоном. Когда будете готовы, извлеките тампон. Выбросьте тампон. Меняйте тампоны каждые 8 часов или чаще, если нужно. Используйте тампоны, соответствующие объему выделений.

If you don't feel ready to jump into a conversation with a witty anecdote, there are still other ways to connect with others: become an active listener. This relieves some of the pressure of social interactions, because you don't have to worry about sounding smart or interesting; you just need to listen carefully and ask questions. Remember, people love talking about themselves, especially if the other person appears to be really taking an interest.  When actively listening, show the other person that you are engaged by paraphrasing their message and repeating it back. You can say something like: "So, it sounds like what you're saying is..." Ask follow-up questions. You don't want to get inappropriate or too personal, but continue asking the person questions or their opinions. Show the person you are listening by nodding, making good eye contact, an making sounds or saying words that affirm you are listening (like "Uh-huh" or "Sure"). Don’t look closed off, but instead, invite people in by showing that you are open and welcoming. The body communicates this easily. By crossing your arms or legs, it appears as if you are disinterested in social interactions. If you avoid eye contact, this also makes you appear disinterested. Be careful not to cross your body, slouch, or keep your head down, and instead engage in eye contact and maintain an open body posture. . Making small talk is what can help you get people to open up, and to have short conversations with people you have just met.  Ask people how they are or how their day is going. Search for common ground. Find casual ways to find out if you and the person root for the same sports teams, watch the same shows, or have the same pets. Use your environment to help you. If you run into the person in a coffee shop, ask if she's tried the amazing baked goods. If you're outside and it's a gorgeous day, ask the person if he's going to take advantage of the beautiful weather to do something fun outdoors. e friendly. Assuming that someone wants to connect with you...

TL;DR in Russian:

Научитесь слушать людей. Используйте соответствующие жесты. Участвуйте в бессодержательных светских разговорах. Будьте дружелюбны. Пошутите. Говорите осмысленные комплименты. Знайте, чего не стоит делать. Поработайте над этикетом. Выходите в люди.


If you don't feel you can do this alone, ask a friend or family member to hold you accountable to reducing or stopping your news viewing. Having someone to help you adhere to your goals will provide you with a greater chance for success, especially if your obsession has been bugging them or interfering with your relationship.  Alert your friends and family to the telltale signs you’ve been watching too much cable news, such as becoming easily agitated, paranoid, not answering the phone, panicked and restless.  Make a point to check in with your family and friends. Don’t wait for them to ask you how you are doing. Consider saying something like, “Hey, I wanted to check in with you to let you know how I’m doing with changing my news viewing habit.” This will provide a lead in for them to feel comfortable to ask questions. Set a maximum amount of time that won’t interfere with other activities. Typically 30 minutes of news can provide you with ample coverage; any more than that and it gets repetitive.  Create a schedule of all your daily events. Include news reading, viewing or listening as a small portion of each day, and no more. Setting limitations and tracking your time on a daily schedule or planner will help you hold yourself accountable to your goal. Apply the same rules to internet news. Give yourself a chance to break your news addiction by limiting your online news reading to set times of the day. If you see headlines, don't click to go there unless it's during your allotted time. If you watch more than your allotted amount of news put money into the jar. The money will be given to your friend or family member. Or, it could be donated to a non-profit organization that helps people with addiction. This principle is similar to using a Cuss Jar when trying to stop a family member or yourself from cussing. Instead of cussing, the goal can be news watching. Pick an amount of money to insert into the jar for each violation. You can also get someone to agree to add money to the jar when you go an entire day...

If you don't get rid of the bed bugs, the stains will continue to plague you. Look for bugs and eggs in and around your bed, in the drawers of nightstands and dressers, behind and under furniture, and in curtains.  A flashlight can help you spot bugs and their eggs more clearly. Bugs will be light brown and small. Eggs are often laid together in groups. Bed bugs love to hide in cracks, corners, and recessed areas. Carpets, clothing, and other fabric items can become infested with bed bugs. with heat and cold. Fabric items must be a laundered at 122 °F (50 °C) to kill bed bugs, and it'll likely take several washings before the bugs are completely removed. Fabric kept at or below 32 °F (0 °C) for 2 weeks will also kill the bugs.  Small and large items can be encased in special bed bug killing covers. These can be bought at most convenience and grocery stores. Severe infestations may require chemical treatments or the services of bed bug removal experts. Blood stains, bed bug stains, and fecal matter stains all have one thing in common: they're all organic. Cold water loosens the organic matter so it doesn’t set in the fabric. Warm water, on the other hand, will set bed bug stains. A missed egg or bed bug could result in the return of this pest. Beg bugs tend to congregate in certain areas, so keep an eye on the places the infestation was the worst so you can take action if your problem is on the rebound.

If you don't have a grill or don't want to deal with the hassle of using one, fear not — brisket can also be cooked in the oven as long as you use the same long, slow style of cooking. One important change that you'll want to make, however, is to use a cut of brisket that has had most or all of the fat cut from it. Brisket is often sold with a fairly thick natural fat cap. On the grill, this fat isn't as big of a problem because it can run off of the meat as it cooks. When you're cooking brisket in a pan in the oven, however, this fat will collect in the pan, leaving you with an oily mess as your final dish. If you're not confident in your fat-trimming ability, try asking your butcher to trim the fat from your meat for you before packing it up for you. In this recipe, we'll use a liquid marinade (rather than a dry rub) to flavor our meat. A marinade is simply a liquid mixture of ingredients that the meat is soaked in before cooking to give it extra flavor. You can mix ingredients in the recipe listed above if you'd like or make your own. If you do make your own, as a general rule, you'll usually want to use liquid bases that include a fat or oil and an acid. For instance, while we've used olive oil and apple cider vinegar above, you could also use lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and so on as your acid to modify the flavor of your marinade. For most brisket, you'll want to let your meat marinate for about a day. Thick, tough, heavy pieces of meat like brisket need time to fully absorb the flavor of the marinade. After your brisket has marinated, put it in an oven-safe pan and pop it in the oven. Cover the pan with foil so the meat retains its moisture. As with grilling, you'll want to use slow, low heat here. Many oven-grilling recipes use a heat of around 275o F — lower or higher is also possible, but will lead to longer or shorter cooking times, respectively. Be patient as you cook your brisket. For moderate-to-large pieces of meat, expect at least a six-to-eight hour cooking time. As your brisket cooks,...

TL;DR in Russian:

If you don't have a grill, you can preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) instead. If you are using an oven, bake it for 5 to 6 minutes, and then broil it (uncovered) until the marshmallows are golden brown. The s'more like flavor makes it an ideal camping trip treat!

If you don't have a package of Hamburger helper handy, you can make a very similar recipe yourself from common kitchen ingredients. Start just like you would in the sections above: by browning the ground beef. Heat a frying pan on the stove, add oil or cooking spray, then add the beef to the pan. Use your spoon or spatula to break up the meat as it cooks.  As above, you're ready to proceed when the ground beef is well-browned all over and no pink remains. Drain the excess grease from the pan when the beef is browned exactly as in the sections above. Stir these ingredients well to combine. Let them heat to a boil, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. In the recipe above, elbow macaroni are suggested, but any similarly-sized pasta should work well. Don't use a pasta with significantly smaller- or larger-sized pieces — these can have different cooking times. When the mixture reaches a boil, add the cornstarch, chili powder, garlic powder, sugar, salt, paprika, cayenne, and red pepper flakes. Stir until the mixture is uniform and well-combined. Reduce the heat to medium or low so that the bubbling becomes slow and steady. Cover and cook at this heat for about 10-12 minutes. Stir every few minutes to prevent sticking. When the pasta is al dente (softened but with some firmness remaining), turn off the heat. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the casserole. Stir well to combine. As with the other recipes, the liquid when you're cooking Hamburger Helper from scratch will continue to thicken as the casserole cools. Let the dish sit for at least two to three minutes before serving.

TL;DR in Russian:

Поджарьте фарш до золотистого цвета. Добавьте макароны, молоко и воду. Добавьте приправы. Готовьте блюдо на медленном огне. Снимите сковороду с огня и добавьте сыр. Остудите блюдо и подавайте.


If you don't have a phone, borrow one from an someone who has one. They are great for keeping you entertained with games, apps, music, and videos. Make sure you have the permission of the person you are borrowing the phone from before downloading anything. If you need to connect to the internet to play a game, watch a video, or listen to music, make sure that you are wearing headphones or have turned down the volume. Ask your parents or older family members for permission before using a tablet or computer, if you do not have your own. You may already have games or apps that you enjoy, but you may also get help from your parents or older family members to help you find more that can help you pass the time.  While some apps are free others require a payment. Do not purchase anything without permission from your parents or older family members. If you have the permission to download something on someone else's tablet/computer, you may need to know what type of computer or tablet you have. Some apps may only work with a certain type of tablet, like an iPad for example. Read the description of your game or app to be sure it works with your computer or tablet. Ask an adult for help if you are still unsure. Use earphones so that you can make the volume as loud as you want without, waking up the rest of the house. Whether you watch a movie on a tablet or binge watch an entire TV series, choose something you enjoy. Watch a funny movie or a scary movie to keep your mind engaged. If you watch a movie that you have seen many times or a very slow movie, you may fall asleep.  Plan ahead of time and ask your parents or older family members to help you download movies or TV shows for your tablet, phone, or computer. You may also ask them for help to PVR some TV shows if your TV is able to record them. Use headphones to make sure that you do not wake up anyone else in the house. Whether you have a gaming console or are able to borrow one, video games can keep you occupied all night. If you are having trouble passing a level,...
