If the man is attracted to you, then chances are that you'll be able to catch him staring at you from across the room. Of course, you shouldn't try too hard to see if you can catch him doing this, or he'll thinking that you're the one staring at him (which you are…sort of). If you look up and find him holding your gaze a few times, then he's probably attracted to you. Bonus points if he quickly looks away or looks embarrassed. If you do lock eyes and he keeps staring at you in a way that makes you blush or flush a bit, then he may be lingering because he's really attracted to you and wants more of you. Of course, if he's more shy, he may look away for a bit, but if he does stare at you for a few extra seconds, then there's a good chance he's attracted to you. If the man is attracted to you, then he will subtly -- or not so subtly -- turn his body toward you when you're speaking. This is just part of the basic rules of attraction. If he likes you, then he'll want to turn his shoulders, face, arms and body in your direction. If he's turned away from you or holding back, then he may not be as interested. If you see him playing with the buttons on his shirt, blushing, picking at his nails, playing with an object on his desk, moving his feet from side to side, or generally acting a little bit antsy, then there's a good chance that he's doing it because he's attracted to you. These are all classic signs of nervousness, and if you make him a little bit nervous, then yeah, he'll be fidgeting more than he normally would around you because he's excited by your presence. If he's really attracted to you, then he'll do everything in his power to get closer to you. This might mean he'll put his hand on the small of your back when you're walking into a room, he might give you a light pat on the shoulder or the arm, or he might even stand so close to you that your feet or legs touch and he doesn't move away from you right away. He might even move a strand of hair away from your face if he really wants to get close to you....

TL;DR in Russian:

Попробуйте подловить его, когда он смотрит на вас. Попробуйте подловить его, удерживая взгляд. Посмотрите, поворачивается ли он всем телом к вам, когда вы говорите. Обратите внимание, не суетится ли он вокруг вас. Если он ищет повод лишний раз прикоснуться к вам. Если его лицо "открывается", когда вы говорите с ним. Посмотрите, всегда ли он повернут к вам лицом.


If the mat won't break apart or loosen with your fingers, the rake, or comb, try a mat splitter. Keep holding the mat at the base. Use the mat splitter to cut the mat into smaller strips. After you cut it into smaller sections, try to work through it with your fingers or a comb.  Use a sawing motion when you cut the hair.  Be careful using a mat splitter. It has a razor sharp edge and can seriously injure your dog. Always watch out for the ears, folds of skin, loose skin, and the tip of the tail. When everything else fails, try clippers. Use the clippers to slowly shave away the mat. This may leave a bare patch where you have shaved the coat. Make sure to watch carefully as you trim away the mat. Do not cut too close to your dog's skin. If the mats are too difficult to remove, or your dog is not cooperating, take your dog to the groomers. They can shave the dog or use their knowledge, experience, and tools to remove the mats easier than you can. Though some people suggest using scissors, you should refrain from using them on your pet. You can seriously injure your dog, especially around the sensitive areas like the ears. Scissors can cut the skin or pull and strain it. Even dematting tools can be dangerous due to their razor-sharp blades. If you are uncomfortable using these sharp objects on your dog, then take him to a professional.

TL;DR in Russian:

Воспользуйтесь колтунорезом. Попробуйте воспользоваться электробритвой. Отведите собаку к специалисту по грумингу. Избегайте применения ножниц.


If the menu is not appearing, your Accessibility settings may be blocking access to it. This is below the first two groups of options in the General menu. You'll find this in the second group. This setting needs to be disabled in order for Invisible Ink (and other bubble effects) to work. You'll need iOS 10 or later in order to use Invisible Ink and other effects in Messages. The iPhone 4S and earlier models do not support iOS 10. Open the Settings app, select "General," then tap "About." Find the "Version" entry to see which version of iOS you are using.

TL;DR in Russian:

Откройте приложение «Настройки». Выберите «Основные», а затем «Универсальный доступ». Коснитесь опции «Уменьшение движения» во втором разделе. Выключите настройку «Уменьшение движения». Убедитесь, что на устройстве установлена iOS 10+.


If the missed homework is for a class late in the day, you might be able to do the work before school, during another class, or during lunch or a break. You can hand in the wrong assignment—such as one from another class—or an old one from the same class. By the time your teacher notices the mistake, you will be able to complete the real homework, or just turn it in the next day and say you are sorry about the mix-up. Copy answers from a friend so you have something to turn in. Make sure your friend is ok with helping. This also only works for assignments where it is expected that students will have the same or similar answers. In some schools, even copying something like homework can merit a suspension. Remember to evaluate the situation and make a good decision as to whether or not you will copy homework off of a peer. Know that in many cases, you’ll need a written excuse from a doctor or clinic to prove to your teacher that you had to seek medical care, and weren’t able to complete your homework. A dangerous move, you can forge a note from a parent explaining why you couldn't do your homework. If you decide to forge one, be warned that your teacher might know it’s a fake. If you are caught, you face punishment from both your parents and teacher.

TL;DR in Russian:

Сделайте вид, будто вы выполнили домашнее задание вовремя, даже если это не так. Притворитесь больным. Попросите родителей написать записку учителю.


If the motor has any of the following issues on the outside, they may be problems that can shorten the life of the motor because of previous overloading, wrong application, or both. Look for:  Broken mounting holes or feet Darkened paint in the middle of the motor (indicating excessive heat) Evidence of dirt and other foreign matter having been pulled into the motor windings through openings in the housing The nameplate is a metal or other durable tag or label that is riveted or otherwise affixed to the outside of motor housing called the '"stator" or "frame". Important information about the motor is on the label; without it, it will be difficult to determine its suitability to a task.  Typical information found on most motors include (but not limited to):  Manufacturer's Name — the name of the company the made the motor Model and Serial Number — information that identifies your particular motor RPM — the number of revolutions the rotor makes in one minute Horsepower — how much work it can perform Wiring diagram — how to connect for different voltages, speeds and direction of rotation Voltage — voltage and phase requirements Current — amperage requirements Frame Style — physical dimensions and mounting pattern Type — describes if frame is open, drip proof, total enclosed fan cooled, etc.

If the nail polish you're trying to loosen up is more than two years old, you're unlikely to fix the problem. These nail polishes are well past their expiration date and you can probably not use them again. Save yourself some time and simply throw out old polishes. Nail polish will last longer if you store it correctly. It needs to be stored in a cool, dry place in your home. Keep nail polish away from direct sunlight. Many people store nail polish in the fridge. This is not a good idea. It alters the chemical composition of the nail polish, causing it to dry out faster.

TL;DR in Russian:

Выбросьте лак для ногтей через пару лет. Храните лак надлежащим образом. Не храните лак для ногтей в холодильнике.


If the opponent plays first and starts with an O in a corner, always put your first X in the center. Your second X should be placed on an edge, not a corner, unless you need to block your opponent from getting three in a row. Using this strategy, every game should be a draw. Theoretically, you can win from this position, but your opponent would have to make a huge mistake, such as not seeing that you have two X's in a row. In this section, your opponent is still playing O's, but remember they get to play first this time. When your opponent starts by putting down an O in the center, place your first X in a corner. After that, just keep blocking your opponent from scoring and the game will be a draw. There is essentially no way for you to win from this position, unless your opponent stops trying to win or stop you from winning! Most of the time, your opponent will start with one of the moves above. However, if your opponent puts down the first O on an edge, not on a corner or center, you have a small chance to win. Put your first X in the center. If your opponent puts the second O on the opposite edge, making a row or column that reads O-X-O, put your second X in a corner. Then, if your opponent puts the third O in the edge that is adjacent to your X, making a line that reads O-X-O, put your third X in the empty square to block their row of two O's. From here, you can always win with your fourth X. If at any point, your opponent doesn't make the exact move described above, you'll have to settle for a draw. Just start blocking their moves and neither of you will win.

TL;DR in Russian:

Приведите игру к ничьей, если ходите вторым. Добейтесь ничьи, если ваш оппонент начинает ходить с центральной клетки. Попытайтесь выиграть, если соперник начинает ходить  с крайней клетки.


If the opportunity is business-related or involves financial decisions – anything from whether to take on a new babysitting client to whether to get your groceries delivered instead of going to the store yourself – you will want to calculate the "opportunity cost."  Start by calculating how much one hour of your time is worth when you spend that hour doing paid work. For each opportunity that presents itself, calculate how much the opportunity will cost as part of your decision about whether or not to say no.  For example. You are normally paid $15 per hour for your work. Having your groceries delivered costs $10, but going to the grocery store takes two hours. If you are choosing between picking up an extra two hours at work or doing the shopping yourself, you would probably choose the work hours ($30) and pay the $10 delivery charge. Remember that opportunity cost should be only one part of your decision making process. It can help you to understand the financial aspects of a dilemma, but there are usually other issues to consider when making a complicated decision. If someone asks you to take on a task or a project you aren’t ready for, then you might not be able to do a good job. You might find it very stressful to complete the task or project, and the person who asked you might not be happy with the result. If you say no now and keep working on preparing yourself, then next time you will be able to confidently say yes – knowing that you will do a great job. Or maybe the task or project is just not a good fit for you. Don’t set yourself up to fail. If you are already very busy, think about whether or not you have the time to do an adequate job of whatever is being asked of you. For example, if you are a busy student with many commitments already, then taking on a new part-time job or volunteer position might not be the best idea if it is going to compromise your ability to complete school assignments. The same principle goes for people who are running their own business: if taking on a new client will...

TL;DR in Russian:

Подсчитайте "альтернативные издержки" вашего отказа. Оцените, если ли у вас навыки и возможности, которые необходимы при положительном ответе. Оцените, насколько согласие ставит под удар ранее взятые обязательства. Оцените выполнимость просьбы. Спросите совета.


If the option is available, using certain prescription drugs in a controlled and careful environment can be a more effective method of kicking heroin for good. You can monitor your intake more carefully, curbing the withdrawal symptoms and keeping yourself feeling relatively normal while you quit heroin.  While you run the risk of further addictions to other drugs, learning more about "warm turkey" methods can help ensure that you don't fall into their possible traps. The problem with warm turkeying, as opposed to quitting cold turkey, is that it costs money you might not have, and requires health insurance you might not be able to get. Call the Substance Abuse hotline 1-800-662-HELP (4357) to find out more about free or reduced clinics in your area you can learn more about and speak with to explore your options.  To avoid becoming addicted to other prescription drugs, don't rely on the same old chain of dealers that resulted in you having to quit heroin in the first place. Don't try it on your own. Do it the smart way, by getting the professional medical help that's available to you and taking drugs as recommended. . Methadone is an opioid agonist that's administered in a regulated manner at clinics, many of which are free or quite cheap, to help heroin users who hope to quit manage the symptoms of withdrawal and taper down in a supervised manner. It'll still be up to you to negotiate your quitting, but getting drug tested and checked out by physicians while you do it can help curb the psychological trauma of heroin withdrawal for some users. You're doing the right thing.  Try to start with as low a dose as possible. Some clinics start with doses in excess of 70mg, making it "too easy" on some users who hope to quit more quickly and effectively. Communicate with the staff and let them know your intention of quitting, not dragging out the process. If you're healthy enough for a lower dose, try to force yourself to start smaller. It's unfortunately common for heroin users to become dependent on methadone, or...

TL;DR in Russian:

Попробуйте ослабить ломку при помощи определенных, отпускаемых по рецепту лекарств (если это возможно). В отличие от переноса ломки, ослабление ломки стоит денег, которых, возможно, у вас нет. Обратитесь в метадоновую клинику (желательно государственную и бесплатную или очень дешевую). Принимайте субутекс или субоксон. Важно быть абсолютно честным с врачами на консультации о вашей зависимости, если вы хотите, чтобы лекарственные препараты помогли вам избавиться от нее. У врача узнайте о других лекарственных препаратах, которые помогают облегчить ломку (если вы не хотите принимать метадон и у вас нет денег на другие препараты). Большая проблема ослабления ломки в том, что наркоман продолжает принимать наркотики (хотя это и называется лекарственной терапией), а значит не перестает быть зависимым. Посещайте реабилитационный наркологический центр (если вы можете себе это позволить).


If the pain from a pinched nerve is severe, your doctor may recommend that you take painkillers. You may be advised to take over-the-counter painkillers, or you may be prescribed stronger prescription painkillers.  Painkillers work by blocking and interfering with the pain signals going through the brain. If the pain signal does not reach the brain, then pain cannot be interpreted and felt. Examples of OTC painkillers include paracetamol and acetaminophen Examples of prescription painkillers include codeine and tramadol. NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications) work by blocking specific body chemicals that cause an injured area to become inflamed. Examples of NSAIDs are Ibuprofen, Naproxen and Aspirin.  However, NSAIDs should not be taken in the first 48 hours of injury as they can delay healing. In the first 48 hours, inflammation is one of the body's compensatory mechanisms to the injury. NSAIDs can irritate the stomach, so they should always be taken with meals. Steroid injections can help to reduce inflammation and swelling, thereby allowing compressed nerves caused by inflammation to heal and recover. Steroid injections must be prescribed and administered by a doctor. The steroids will either be injected or administered through an IV. In some instances, you doctor will recommend that you wear a brace or splint on the affected hip. A brace or splint limits motion and allows the muscles to rest, relieving the pinched nerve and promoting healing. If all prior treatment measures fail, surgical intervention may be necessary to alleviate the pressure and compression of the nerves.

TL;DR in Russian:

Чтобы облегчить боль, воспользуйтесь болеутоляющими средствами. Используйте НПВП для уменьшения воспаления. Попробуйте делать инъекции стероидов. Врач может поставить на бедро скобу или шину. Рассмотрите возможность хирургического вмешательства.


If the paint has already dried on the skin, you will need additional measures to remove the stain. Start by washing the area with soap and warm water. Loosen the paint as much as possible to weaken its hold on the skin. Scrub the area lightly as you wash. Pat the area with a towel before proceeding to treat the spot so that the water on your skin doesn’t dilute the alcohol. Take a washcloth or large cotton ball swab. Douse the cloth or cotton ball with roughly an ounce of standard rubbing alcohol. Alcohol is a solvent for acrylic paint, which means it will start to break down the paint once it’s applied to the skin.  For ease of application, press the cloth or cotton swab to the mouth of the alcohol bottle and turn it upside down, soaking a compact circle perfect for scrubbing. Pure rubbing alcohol is one of the most highly recommended methods for removing paint from various surfaces. Dab the area with the washcloth or cotton ball to wet it and give the alcohol time to begin acting on the paint. Then, go over the paint spot with alcohol using small, circular strokes to coax the paint out of the crevices of the skin’s surface. Scrub the area until all paint is gone, reapplying alcohol as needed. You may have to scrub quite forcefully to reach paint that has settled deep into the skin. Once all traces of paint have been removed, wash and dry the area to clear it of any leftover rubbing alcohol. Isopropyl alcohol is a mild irritant to the skin, and can cause redness and irritation if it is not rinsed away.

TL;DR in Russian:

Помойте загрязненный участок водой с мылом. Пропитайте тканевую салфетку или ватный тампон спиртом. Потрите пятно. Помойте и промокните кожу насухо.


If the parents don't return to the nest within a couple of hours or if you're sure the parents are not alive anymore, you'll need to call for help for the bird. If the bird has trouble moving or flapping its wings, it's likely injured. Also, if the bird is shivering, it may be in trouble. An injured bird is also a reason to make a call. It's actually illegal to keep and raise a wild bird. You must have special permits from both the local and federal governments to raise wild animals. Wildlife rehabilitators have the skills and training to care for baby birds. You can find one on your local government's wildlife websites, or you can try calling a local veterinarian or animal shelter, as they may know rehabilitators in the area. Ask for advice on how to feed and water the baby and how to keep it warm. Be patient with your questions, and ask for additional advice by saying, "Is there anything else that I should know (or be careful about)?"

TL;DR in Russian:

Поищите родителей птенца. Обратите внимание на травмы птенца. Не пытайтесь выходить птенца самостоятельно. Свяжитесь с центром реабилитации диких животных.


If the party you're throwing is a small dinner party for 4-12 people, there's no need to make a huge mix, and certainly no call for danceable music. Instead, help everyone relax and feel elegant by putting on some classic jazz. Not just any jazz album will do; look for famous performers, and lean towards variations on songs rather than original compositions (though these are also fine in moderation). You should only need a few albums' worth of music, at most.  Don't shuffle your jazz; instead, go through each album in turn, from beginning to end, preserving the intended mood. As for era, stick to the 20 years between 1951 and 1971. Jazz from this period has a classic jazz sound that most people find relaxing and sophisticated. Consider these albums as useful starting points: Solar Energy, Ray Brown Trio with Gene Harris; Time Out, Dave Brubeck Quartet; Kind of Blue, Miles Davis; Idle Moments, Grant Green.  You can also try an album of bossa nova (such as Antonio Jobim's excellent Wave) or other “relaxed” sounding music, but be careful not to make your guests feel as though they're listening to elevator music. This works best with a collection of CDs or LPs, but can be approximated with a digital music player. Before the party, set aside every album that's not suitable for the party, leaving only good party albums out in the main area. Put one on as guests begin to arrive, and leave the albums prominently displayed so that people can look through them. Offer to let people play albums, a few songs (or one side) at a time, one pick per person. Your guests will have another activity to play around with, and you can rest assured that only the chosen albums will be played. To be safe, don't leave out any albums that would be difficult or expensive to replace if broken. Parties have been the bane of many a breakable item. Themed mixes aren't only useful at theme parties; they're also a great way to show off a collection that has some depth, and can provide some additional structure to a more public event (like a...

TL;DR in Russian:

If the patient has done any of these things, wait to take the temperature for 10 minutes. Place the thermometer under the tongue to take an oral temperature only if the patient is at least 5 years old, conscious, lucid, able to breathe through the nose, and doesn't have a facial injury that would make it difficult to hold the thermometer under the tongue. Use a digital thermometer, not a glass thermometer. If the glass breaks, your or the patient may be cut, and if the thermometer contains mercury you or the patient may come in contact with it. Mercury is toxic. Use a thermometer strip on the forehead or put the thermometer under the patient's arm (axillary temperature) if you can't take an oral temperature. Thermometer strips and axillary temperatures are less accurate than other methods of taking a temperature. If you use a temperature strip, wait for the time specified in the instructions. Normal temperature is somewhere around 98 degrees Fahrenheit (37 Celsius).

TL;DR in Russian:

Узнайте у пострадавшего, ел или пил он что-либо горячее или холодное, курил, жевал жвачку или претерпевал любые физические нагрузки в течение последних 10 минут. Измерьте температуру пострадавшего. Подождите, пока цифровой термометр не издаст звуковой сигнал и не выведет результат на дисплей. Запишите температуру потерпевшего, способ измерения температуры и время.


If the patient lost consciousness or suffered a head injury, check the pupils of the eye to see if they are the same size and react to light. Check the blood glucose level of diabetic patients if you have the equipment to do so. Ask patients in pain to rate their pain level from 1 to 10.

TL;DR in Russian:

If the person continues to have difficulty falling asleep, you may suggest that he or she visit a sleep specialist. People who visit sleep specialists are those who are complain about lack of sleep quality and/or quantity. Their are 88 different types of sleep disorders, and a specialist will be able to help your friend or loved one tackle their specific sleeping problem.  A primary care physician may refer someone to a sleep specialist based upon symptoms, so their doctor can be their first stop. The sleep specialist will ask a number of questions to determine if the patient needs further testing. The test, called a polysomnogram, measures activity during sleep through electrodes attached to the body. The polysomnogram will measure heart rate, brainwaves, eye movement, muscle tension, air flow, and more. There are a number of possible suggestions that a specialist will make. It may be that they suggest behavioral therapy, for instance changing lifestyle and habits (as mentioned above). It is also possible they will suggest medication to help with sleeplessness, or suggest devices that will make it easier to breath at night. Whatever the suggestions of the specialist, make sure your friend or loved one follows the directions exactly.

TL;DR in Russian:

Проконсультируйтесь со специалистом по сну – сомнологом. Пройдите необходимое обследование. Следуйте рекомендациям специалиста.


If the person doesn't look like he or she is preparing to hug you, then you may want to back off. If either of you requested the hug, then make the person you're hugging feel safe. Act as though the two of you are the only people who matter at the moment. The best way to judge how tightly or loosely to hug is to let whomever you're hugging indicate what they want by how hard they squeeze. If they are soft, be soft back; if they like bear hugs and squeeze tightly, hug back the same way. A hug is a powerful way to communicate that you care for another person, as it can feel great and improve the other person's mood. Ending the hug too early may make both of you feel awkward. If you feel comfortable, go along with it and hug until the other person lets go or loosens his or her hold.

TL;DR in Russian:

Если вы хотите обнять человека, посмотрите на его реакцию, настроен ли он позитивно? Будьте доброжелательны, когда обнимаете. Не обнимайте человека слишком сильно. Прежде чем отпустить человека, подождите пару секунд. Если человек чем-то расстроен или чувствует себя плохо, обнимите его дольше обычного.


If the person feels that they need more emotional support, it’s likely that something is imbalanced in their life. This is a great opportunity to help them explore what actions they can take to become emotionally centered again.  The person may not have the answer immediately and that’s okay. Don’t push for a decision right away. They may just need to be heard and feel validated first. Ask “what-if” questions. “What-if” questions will help the person brainstorm possible action steps that they may not have considered before.  Presenting options in a question format is less threatening and the person probably won’t feel like they are being told what to do. This approach allows you to give suggestions in a supportive manner without stripping away their power. Remember, you are not fixing the problem for the person. You are simply providing them support in finding the solution to the problem herself. For example, if your friend is struggling financially, you could ask, “What if you and your supervisor had a discussion about a pay raise?” Maybe your niece is feeling overwhelmed with work and home responsibilities. You could ask, “What if you planned a stress-free vacation for your family?” Any appropriate “what-if” question could be helpful. The person may not have all of the answers immediately, but it’s important to support them in taking small steps to resolve the problem.  Identifying the next step is important, even if it’s something small like the person agreeing to have another conversation with you the next day. People tend to feel more supported when they know that they have dependable people in their corner who will help them see the bigger picture.  Continue to support the person in taking action steps until the problem is resolved. It may be a slow process but they’ll appreciate your support. When a person is grieving, there may not be any specific action steps. People grieve differently and grief can last up to a year or longer. When you are supporting someone through grief, listening to the stories...

TL;DR in Russian:

Спросите человека, что он хочет сделать. Помогите человеку продумать план действий. Доказывайте свои слова действием. Регулярно связывайтесь с человеком.


If the person flirts back, there's a good chance that they're interested in you. If they just nod, but don't engage, they might not be paying attention – or they might be scared they'll say the wrong thing. If they start acting nervous and fidgety, they could really like you and feel anxious that you'll reject them, but they could also be figuring out how to let you down easy. Trust your gut! It can be hard to tell, but your intuition can lead you in the right direction.  Bear in mind that some people are naturally flirty. Flirting back does not necessarily mean that the person likes you – it might just indicate attraction, or that he/she is especially outgoing. Try casually touching the person to see how they respond. Put your hand on his/her arm or shoulder when you're speaking, and sit with your thighs and shoulders touching. If the person seems to respond well to your touch, it might be a good sign. Many strong relationships have begun as simple friendships. If you become this person's friend, you'll learn more about them and they'll learn more about you. If the two of you are compatible, you might start to like each other. This can also help the person feel more comfortable around you. Try going out with a group of your friends and inviting the "Someone." This can make it much more comfortable to be around someone that you like. You can't necessarily force this, but you can ride the momentum if it happens. Bring up the inside joke again a day or two later, and see if the person remembers it. This can be a good way to gauge whether the person places significance upon your interactions. It may indicate attraction if the person pays rapt attention when you talk about yourself. He/she might ask you questions about your life. As you get to know each other more deeply, you might find yourselves talking about personal preferences and experiences that don't normally come up in conversation. If he/she listens and remembers the details hours or days later, then there's a good chance that he/she likes you.  Again,...

TL;DR in Russian:

Флиртуйте с человеком и смотрите на его реакцию. Подружитесь с человеком. Расскажите шутку, которая будет известна только вам двоим. Обращайте внимание на то, как человек вас слушает.


If the person has already been diagnosed with bipolar disorder, then you may know all about the symptoms of this condition already. Bipolar disorder is characterized by periods of mania and depression. During manic phases, someone may seem to have boundless energy and during depressive phases, that same person might not get out of bed for days.  Manic phases may be characterized by high levels of optimism or irritability, unrealistic ideas about one’s abilities, feeling energetic despite getting little sleep, speaking rapidly and going quickly from one idea to the next, not being able to concentrate, making impulsive or poor decisions, and even hallucinating.  Depressive phases are characterized by hopelessness, sadness, emptiness, irritability, losing interest in things, fatigue, lack of concentration, appetite changes, weight changes, difficulty sleeping, feeling worthless or guilty, and considering suicide. Bipolar disorder is divided into four subtypes. These definitions can help mental health practitioners to identify the disorder whether the symptoms are mild or severe. The four subtypes are:   Bipolar I Disorder. This subtype is characterized by manic episodes that last for seven days or that are severe enough that the person needs hospitalization. These episodes are followed by depressive episodes that last at least two weeks.  Bipolar II Disorder. This subtype is characterized by depressive episodes followed by mild manic episodes, but these episodes are not severe enough to warrant hospitalization.  Bipolar Disorder Not Otherwise Specified (BP-NOS). This subtype is when someone has symptoms of bipolar disorder, but they do not meet the criteria for a bipolar I or II diagnosis.  Cyclothymia. This subtype is when someone has had symptoms of bipolar disorder for two years, but the symptoms are mild. If you think that someone may be suffering from bipolar disorder, then you should say something. When you approach the person, make sure that you do so from a standpoint of concern and not judgment....

TL;DR in Russian:

Обращайте внимание на симптомы. Различные типы биполярного расстройства. Выразите беспокойство. Покажите готовность выслушать. Договоритесь о встрече с врачом. Поощряйте человека принимать предписанные лекарства. Запаситесь терпением. Находите время для себя.


If the person has been open with you about his addiction you must focus on being supportive rather than negative. It is difficult to admit you have a problem. If you want to help you need to demonstrate that you can be trusted and will not make fun of the person. A good support system will help the person experience less stress. It takes courage to admit you have a problem, so you can say something like, “First of all, thank you for telling me. I know that takes a lot of courage to do that. I’m here for you in any way I can help.” Being listened to and understood are key components to personal growth. The emotional experience of dealing with a pornography addiction will force a person to grow, which may be painful. You can help ease the person's pain by actively listening.  Put yourself in the person’s shoes. Learn to be compassionate and accepting rather than judging the person. Find resources that can teach you about being compassionate. It might be difficult to understand, but you can always try. Treat the person like you would like to be treated. You have probably experienced struggles in your life and know what was helpful to you, and what wasn’t. When people experience unpleasant thoughts and feelings they may turn to viewing pornography as a way to manage those feelings. Pornography captures a person’s attention and pushes feelings of anxiety, depression, boredom, loneliness and stress away. Unfortunately, this is only a temporary solution and does nothing to create long-term effective ways of dealing with those feelings.  Help the person determine if he has feelings of depression. There are online screening questionnaires that can help with the process. He may have been depressed before delving into pornography, or he could be depressed because of his addiction to pornography. You can ask him, “Are there some things that you’re depressed about?” You can use the same type of question to address anxiety, loneliness, boredom and other emotions he may be trying to manage. Cybersex or pornography addiction...

TL;DR in Russian:

Обеспечьте эмоциональную поддержку. Проявите сочувствие. Помогите ему определить его эмоциональные проблемы. Отпразднуйте его достижения. Признайте, что вы не всесильны. Следите за своим собственным здоровьем и самочувствием.


If the person in question appears to have a conscience, they’re probably not a psychopath. In general, psychopaths lack any sort of moral compass. They will do whatever they need to advance, and they really don’t care who they hurt in the process. For example, a psychopath is unlikely to live by a "code" like others do. They may see no problem going after a friend's date or competing with a close pal for a job promotion, and gloating about it. Psychopaths have shallow emotional responses and do not react normally to deaths, injuries, or other events that would cause a deep negative response in others. The difference between psychopathic and typical autistic responses is that while autistic people may seem initially numb, they may melt down in distress later or throw themselves into research and ways to help. With psychopaths, there are no deep emotions hiding underneath. Individuals with psychopathy have a general absence of any guilt or remorse. Callousness is one of the primary characteristics used to describe them. A psychopath may feign guilt over bad behavior in order to manipulate a person into not becoming angry.  For example, they pretend to go into a guilt spiral over hurting their victim, so the victim ends up consoling them instead. Interestingly, while psychopathy precludes genuine empathy, people who have this condition are able to fake empathy very well. They cannot spontaneously empathize, but can do so at will (to charm others for example). A psychopath will never genuinely admit to being wrong or owning up to mistakes and errors in judgment. When pressed, they may admit to making a mistake, but manipulate others so as to avoid any consequences. Psychopaths are experts at manipulating your emotions and insecurities into causing you to view them as the victim. This helps lower your guard and makes you vulnerable for future exploitation. If the psychological resource of the victim mentality is continually combined with unacceptable and evil actions, you should be warned about this person's real nature.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте о морали и личной этике. Обратите внимание на чувства и эмоциональный отклик человека. Присмотритесь к чувству вины. Подумайте, способен ли человек брать на себя ответственность. Понаблюдайте за человеком во время печальных событий.


If the person really loves you, then the idea of you being in their future is an absolute given, not something that they would ever have anxiety or uncertainty about. If the person routinely talks about what you're going to do in the future, about what your lives will look like one, two, or even ten years in the future together, then they are probably in love with you.  True commitment means seeing a forever with another person. If the person talks about the future and always includes you in it, then there is a good chance they truly love you. If the person talks about what your kids will look like, where you will retire together, or where you will go for your honeymoon, then they may really love you. There's a difference between saying, "I like your new haircut" and "You have the ability to make me feel better no matter what." If the person gives you compliments that show that they really appreciate the important aspects of your character and personality, then there's a good chance they really love you. Your loved one doesn't have to shower you with compliments all the time — it's the quality, not the quantity, that makes a difference. Remember that there is a big difference between "Love ya!" and "I love you." If your special someone really loves you and tells you this much while looking into your eyes, sounding earnest, and not wanting anything from you, then it's likely that they really mean it. If the person undeniably loves you, then they will say it for no reason at all, not just because they need a favor or because it feels like the right thing to say. If your loved one really loves you, then they will really open up to you and tell you what they are thinking, feeling, fearing, and longing for. If the person really opens up about their childhood, greatest regrets, most painful moments, or most romantic dreams for the future, then it's likely that they like you because the person is so comfortable telling you about almost everything. If the person tells you, "I've never told anyone this before...",...

TL;DR in Russian:

Говорит ли человек о вашем совместном будущем как о чем-то само собой разумеющемся? Говорит ли вам любимый человек значимые комплименты? Когда человек говорит вам «Я тебя люблю», правда ли он имеет это в виду? Действительно ли человек открыт перед вами? Говорит ли вам любимый человек о том, что скучает, когда вы в разлуке? Видит ли любимый человек ваши недостатки? Уважает ли любимый человек ваше мнение?


If the person really won’t go away, then you should talk to your parents about it. Let them know that you’re feeling threatened, or just really, really annoyed by the person who won’t leave you alone. You may be a little embarrassed telling your parents about it if the person really has a crush on you, but they can help you get rid of the annoying person and deal with the situation. They can make you feel safer and can even take further action to limit your contact with the person.  Your parents will know what to do and you’ll be safe in their hands. They’ll appreciate the fact that you went to them with your problem and will feel responsible for you. You shouldn’t look for the perfect time to tell them. Just make sure they’re not busy or about to run off to work and sit them down and have the conversation. And if it really can’t wait, then tell them what’s up. Your friends can also be a big help in this situation. Not only can they be around you more when you think the person who won’t leave you alone will be there, but they can also help tell the person to leave you alone and will discourage him or her from following you around.  Your true friends will be there for you through thick and thin and will understand that you’re in a tricky situation. They’ll make sure to spend more time with you and will see to it that you’re never alone if you’re feeling unsafe. If your friends are always with you, then the person will lose interest, whether he has a crush on you or wants to taunt you. Your friends can also help you see what the best course of action is. If the person you want to be rid of is a real bully, then they’ll tell you that you need to get more help than they can provide. If you gossip about the person or keep talking about how he won’t leave you alone, then it’ll get back to him. Not only will this make him angry or even more persistent, but he may even have the idea that you really do like him or want him to come around. If you didn’t, then why would you keep talking him? If you really want to make...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поговорите с родителями. Попросите помощи у друзей. Не сплетничайте об этом человеке. Поговорите с учителем или классным руководителем. Измените свое расписание как можно больше, чтобы избегать встреч с этим человеком. Игнорируйте этого человека в надежде, что он поймет. Оставайтесь в безопасности.


If the person who snores is overweight or has weight issues, they may want to consider losing weight with a healthy, balanced diet and daily exercise. Excess weight can add more tissue around the neck area and lead to restricted airways, causing louder and more persistent snoring. Drinking alcohol a few hours before bed can cause airways to relax and vibrate when sleeping, leading to snoring. As well, a heavy meal before bedtime can cause a restless sleep, full of snoring and shifting or moving around in bed. Throat exercises can strengthen the muscles of their upper respiratory tract and help to reduce or eliminate snoring. Suggest they try to do throat exercises on a daily basis, starting with 1 to 2 sets and then increasing the number of sets over time. Advise them to combine the exercises with other activities like driving to work, while doing housework, or while walking the dog. To do throat exercises:  Repeat each vowel (a-e-i-o-u) out loud for 3 minutes several times a day. Put the tip of the tongue behind the top front teeth. Then, slide the tongue backward 3 minutes a day. Close the mouth and purse the lips. Hold this for 30 seconds. Open the mouth and move the jaw to the right. Hold this for 30 seconds. Do the same on the left side. Open the mouth and contract the muscles at the back of the throat several times for 30 seconds. Look in the mirror to confirm the uvula (the hanging ball in the back of the throat) moves up and down.

TL;DR in Russian:

Похудение благодаря правильному питанию и упражнениям. Отказ от еды и алкоголя за несколько часов до сна. Ежедневные горловые упражнения для снижения храпа.


If the person who snores struggles with stuffed up nasal passages, they may want to try a saline rinse before they go to bed to help them breathe easily while sleeping. To clean and rinse the nose, a Neti pot or nasal decongestant can be used. Nasal strips placed on the bridge of your nose can help to reduce the volume of snoring, as they can adjust the nasal passages. They do not always help to eliminate snoring and are not as effective as a nasal rinse in the opinion of some. Shifting sleep position to laying on one side rather than laying flat on one's back or stomach will reduce the amount of pressure on the throat and help to prevent snoring. If there's difficulty maintaining a side sleeping position, you can sew a sock or a tennis ball into the back of their nightwear. This will cause mild discomfort when rolling over on the back during the night and help to keep the snorer on one side.  After a few weeks of sleeping on one side, it should become a habit and you can remove the tennis balls or socks in the pajamas. You can also use a snore pillow to prevent them from rolling over. People with a snoring problem can see their dentist and get a custom mouthguard to help open the airway and bring the lower jaw and tongue forward during sleep. Dentist-made appliances can be expensive, especially if healthcare does not cover it. Suggest they have a consultation with their dentist and discuss cheaper options, if necessary. If the snorer continues to snore despite adjustments to the sleeping environment and sleep habits, they may want to consider scheduling a consultation with a doctor to discuss a medical device or a surgical procedure to help with the snoring. A doctor may recommend the following options, including:  Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP): This is a machine that blows pressurized air into a mask worn over the nose, or nose and mouth or whole face. A CPAP machine can help to keep airways open while sleeping, but it is mainly used for sleep apnea. Consider drawbacks, such as hindering...

TL;DR in Russian:

Предложите партнеру промывать нос перед сном. Порекомендуйте партнеру спать на боку, а не на спине. Попросите его обсудить с дантистом ротовые приспособления для защиты от храпа. Порекомендуйте обсудить с врачом хирургические решения проблемы.


If the person won't even admit that they did something wrong, they're probably not going to apologize. Accusing them outright will often cause them to become defensive, but you may be able to get them to confess by asking them leading questions. At the very least, you might catch them in a lie that you can prove is untrue.  For instance, if you found out that your boyfriend was out with another woman, you might start by asking him something like, "Why didn't you answer the phone when I called you earlier?" If he says he was at work, you could say, “No you weren't, because I called there too.” If you know your teenager took cash out of your wallet, you could say, “Where did you get the money to go to the movies last night?” Be careful of accusing someone of something they may not have done. If they get blamed when they haven't done anything, they might start to feel like they might as well do whatever they're accused of. Playing the victim is an integral part of a guilt trip. Make it seem like this is a pattern of behavior you've come to expect, and certainly not one that you deserve. It's most effective if you bring up things that are similar to whatever you're trying to get the person to apologize for, but it can be anything that upset you.  For example, if you're trying to get your spouse to apologize for being irritable, you might say, “It's not the first time you've snapped at me. Remember the other day when you said...?" Only do this when you absolutely must, since it opens the door for the other person to bring up things they feel you've done to hurt them as well. Tell the person that what they did makes you question the way they feel about you. In some cases, this might very well be true, especially if what you're upset about is something very serious. Either way, make sure the person you're guilt-tripping feels like they need to prove that they still care about you.  Say something like, "How can you say you love me and then lie to me?" You could also say "It really hurt my feelings that you forgot my...

TL;DR in Russian:

Задавайте вопросы, чтобы человек признал свой поступок. Вспомните о других проступках человека. Играйте на чувствах человека. Напомните о ваших любезностях и одолжениях. Отметайте любые попытки человека превратить ситуацию в вашу вину. Повышайте градус эмоций.


If the person you're dating is right for you, the two of you will share common core beliefs and values. While these values will vary from couple to couple, it is important to think about what is important to you in life and whether or not your partner also values these things.  Beliefs and values are not the same as common interests. For example, love, care, trust, and respect are values, while sports and television are interests. It's important to have common interests with the guy you're dating. Your relationship should go beyond amazing chemistry. Think about things you both like to do, and how you spend your time when you're together. Not having a lot of common interests isn't a deal breaker, but both partners should be willing to try out some activities the other person enjoys. Make a list of your interests and then put a star beside interests that you share with him. It's important to be clear about what matters most to you when you're trying to figure out if the guy you're dating is a good fit. Sit down and make a list of things that are important to you in a relationship. Some examples include spending quality time together, sharing similar life goals, and mutual respect.

TL;DR in Russian:

Подумайте о своих убеждениях и ценностях. Примите во внимание общие интересы. Решите, что для вас важно в отношениях.


If the person’s mouth is upturned at the corners, but their eyes aren’t wrinkling, they are faking a smile. They may be trying to lie or they may be uncomfortable, or anxious. If someone keeps their arms and legs crossed and starts opening them or reaching out, that is a sign they are more comfortable with you. Also, if someone you are close to starts using a lot of new postures or expressions, they may be going through an emotional or physical change. This type of person will search for awards and leadership positions. They aim to win arguments and seek to manage or influence others. Watching behavior can show you a person’s motivation and helps to predict future actions. This type of person seeks acceptance from others. If a person sets high standards, likes to work individually and seeks a challenge, they are most likely motivated by a sense of personal achievement rather than power or affiliation.

TL;DR in Russian:

Изучите улыбку или смех, чтобы определить их искренность. Обратите внимание на смены поведения. Идентифицируйте знаки стремления к власти. Поищите в поведении человека следы того, что он стремиться к тесному контакту и связям с другими людьми. Оцените мотивацию при достижении цели.


If the phone you are sending the images to supports email, it should be able to download the images as attachments. You can also send email messages to a phone using MMS (Multimedia Messaging Service). Most smartphones these days allow you to check emails directly on the cell phone. Click the "Attachments" button in the composition window to browse for the images on your computer. Most email services support sending up to 20 MB, which is usually about 5 images per message. There are a couple different ways you can do this, depending on who you are trying to send the image to:  Standard Email - If you are trying to transfer the images to your own phone, enter your own email address. If you are transferring the images to someone else, and they have a phone capable of receiving email, you can enter their regular email address. MMS - If you want the message to be sent as an MMS message to the cell phone, use the recipient's MMS address. Click here for details on finding someone's MMS address. When looking through the chart, make sure to choose the MMS address, not the SMS address. You may have to wait a few moments for the images to upload to your mail server, and another few moments for the message to be delivered. If you're sending the images to yourself, the message should appear on your phone after a few moments. Make sure that your phone is on and has a network connection. To receive an MMS message, you will need to have a cellular data connection. The process for this varies depending on your phone, but generally you can press and hold an open image on your screen or tap the Menu button and choose to save it to your phone. Repeat this for each of the images in the message.

TL;DR in Russian:

Откройте почтовый клиент или сайт почтового сервиса на вашем компьютере, чтобы передать изображения на телефон в виде вложения к письму. Создайте новое письмо. Прикрепите изображения. Введите адрес электронной почты получателя. Отправьте письмо. Откройте ваш электронный почтовый ящик или сообщение MMS (если вы отправили изображение на свой телефон, вы получите сообщение через несколько мгновений). Сохраните изображения.


If the plant is infected, it is best to throw it out and purchase another for keeping over. Mealy bugs are the main concern and can be removed by dabbing them with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. However, this should be done before the infection spreads or gets too large or you may never kill them all. The plant should be allowed to go dry to the touch between watering and be watered only sparingly (over-watering is the leading cause of plant death in the winter months inside, the plant is not actively growing and is not taking up the normal food it would during the growing season, and if watered to much the plant will end up sitting in water and problems like moss, mold, rot and leaf yellow may accrue). When the temperatures at night get above 10 C, the plant can then be moved outside. If a small bushy plant is your goal, the entire plant should be trimmed down to about "inches above the main trunk. If you want a larger plant, simply pinch the tops of each main branch and continue this until about July. If a topiary is your goal, then remove all of the branches except for the tallest, straightest main branch and do not pinch the plant on the top, just remove the side shoots for the remainder of the season. Doing this will cause what leaves are left to scorch and fall off and may kill the weakened plant. Place the plant in full shade then move the plant out of the shade in two weeks to part shade then two weeks later to full or part sun for the remainder of the season. This will allow the plant to harden off and get used to the new conditions outside. Fertilize every fifth watering or every two weeks (whichever comes last) with a poinsettia fertilizer or house plant fertilizer. Or, if you would like, try a diluted evergreen fertilizer to help promote leaf growth (at this stage all you want is leaf growth, no flowers). This process can take up to 2 months and sometimes longer, depending on conditions and the variety of plant you have.  Switch from a nitrogen based fertilizer to an even houseplant...

TL;DR in Russian:

Проверьте, нет ли на растении жуков (на многих тепличных растениях жуков не видно, но они появляются примерно через 2 недели после перенесения растения из теплицы в дом). Если вы хотите сохранить определенное растение, необходимо опрыскивать его мыльной водой; с помощью этого метода ваше растение будет обеззаражено. Поместите растение в прохладное (не холодное) помещение со шторами от проникновения солнечного света и не поливайте растение слишком часто. Решите, какой вид растения вы хотите получить к Рождеству. Не ставьте растение под прямые лучи солнца. Начните регулярно поливать растение. С наступлением осеннего сезона, листья растения начнут краснеть (или розоветь, в зависимости от типа растения).


If the problem is severe, and immediate attention is necessary, you can look into fumigation options for termite control. Fumigation has the advantage of being able to treat every part of your home and its structure in one go. It is normally only recommended if multiple colonies are found in a single structure. Fumigation is not something that you can carry out yourself. It involves your house being covered over with a giant tent, and fumigators pumping in gas which spreads throughout your home. It is supposed to seep into every crack and crevice in one treatment and kill off the termites that have taken up residence there. A specialist will need to make specific plans for the particulars of your infestation. If your house is going to be fumigated, a pest control company will enter your home, and work for three to five days. Before they arrive you have to take precautions, including ensuring that all food is sealed well or removed from your home. The fumigators will take care of everything else and advise you how to be ready. You won’t be able to access the house until they are finished so you need to be prepared.  There are two different types of poisons used to kill termites; one is a stomach poison, and the other a hormone which prevents termites to regrow a cuticle after moulting. The poisons have a two-fold benefit, since termites will eat the remains of their colony members. Even post tenting and fumigation, a problem may flare up once more with termites; unfortunately, this procedure does not rid your home of termite eggs.

TL;DR in Russian:

Рассмотрите возможность фумигации вашего домовладения. Свяжитесь со специалистом. Подготовьтесь к фумигации.


If the problem tells you the diameter of the circle, it's easy to find the radius. If you are working with an actual circle, measure the diameter by placing a ruler so its edge passes straight through the circle's center, touching the circle on both sides.  If you're not sure where the circle center is, put the ruler down across your best guess. Hold the zero mark of the ruler steady against the circle, and slowly move the other end back and forth around the circle's edge. The highest measurement you can find is the diameter. For example, you might have a circle with a diameter of 4 centimeters. A circle's radius is always half the length of its diameter.   For example, if the diameter is 4 cm, the radius equals 4 cm ÷ 2 = 2 cm. In math formulas, the radius is r and the diameter is d. You might see this step in your textbook as r=d2{\displaystyle r={\frac {d}{2}}}.

TL;DR in Russian:

Найдите диаметр круга. Разделите диаметр на 2.


If the problem you are working with is a word problem, first you need to write out all of the numbers involved in the calculation. If you were given the numbers written out already, you can skip this step.  For example: What is one-third of seven? When you see “of” written between two numbers in a word problem, think of it as meaning multiply. Thus, one-third of seven actually means one-third multiplied by seven. Writing out the problem gives you (1/3) x 7. When working with whole numbers, you will only multiply the number by the numerator (the top number) of the fraction. The denominator remains the same throughout the multiplication process. For example: (1/3) x 7 = 7/3. Divide the product by the denominator (the bottom number) of the fraction. At this stage, the fraction might be an improper fraction, meaning that the numerator is larger than the denominator, or it will just need to be reduced. For example: After multiplying, the fraction is 7/3. Three doesn’t divide evenly into seven so you will have a remainder. Three goes into seven twice with one leftover; therefore, the final answer is the mixed number 21/3.

TL;DR in Russian:

Запишите задачу. Целое число умножьте на числитель. Полученный результат разделите на знаменатель.


If the problems blocking you from following your heart seem more serious than you can deal with on your own, or with help from a friend, consider seeing a therapist. Many therapists deal with this kind of problem on a regular basis. If you had a traumatic childhood, a bad marriage, or if you've just collapsed under a ton of stress, therapy can help you rediscover your heart and feel more alive.  Somatic experiencing therapy is similar to Focusing, where you focus on sensations in your body rather than thoughts and memories. Cognitive-behavioral therapy can help you examine fixed thoughts and beliefs that may be preventing you from following your heart. Find a local therapist by clicking here. Sometimes it's hard to break through to where your heart is all on your own. Enlist the help of a friend for this task. You can actually do Focusing with a friend, where you go through the steps together and report what happens. You can also just talk about what's going on in your life right now and express your desire to get more in touch with your heart. See if she has any advice for you. Talking it out can also help, because expressing your emotions in words has a powerful effect. For example, you can say "Hey, I feel like I'm not really following my heart in my life right now. I could really use someone to talk to about this. Would you be willing to help?" It's easy to live our lives in response to pressure from other people, such as friends, family, a spouse, or even kids. If you want to follow your heart, make sure you are living according to your own desires rather than what other people want from you. This is actually one of the most commonly reported regrets from people who are on their deathbeds.  Ask yourself, "is this what I truly want, or am I doing it for someone else in spite of myself?" There's nothing wrong with being generous and doing things for other people, of course, but you've got to find a balance where you are being true to yourself when you are being kind and helping others. Otherwise, however...

TL;DR in Russian:

Если вам покажется, что вам нужна помощь психотерапевта, обратитесь за ней. Обратитесь за помощью к друзьям. Живите своей жизнью. Верно придерживайтесь избранного пути. Очистите и организуйте свое личное пространство.


If the puppies in a litter have fleas, then it's almost certain that the mother will have them too. As a result, it will be necessary to treat the mother in order to avoid reinfecting the puppies. Keep in mind that if there are any other animals in the house that have come in contact with the mother dog or puppies, they will need to be treated for fleas also. Although anti-flea products can be used on the mother, it is important to be careful about the products you choose.  If the mother is still providing milk for her puppies, certain chemicals can be passed onto the puppies through the milk, which could make them sick. Therefore, it is essential that you only use prescription products designed for use in lactating mothers. Some store bought products may be marked as "natural" or "drug free", but this does not mean that they are safe for very young puppies. And even if they don't cause any negative side-effects, natural or herbal products are unlikely to be effective in getting rid of fleas. Prescription medications that contain an ingredient called selamectin (such as Revolution and Stronghold) are licensed as being safe for use in pregnant and lactating mothers.  The medication should be applied to the adult dog's skin, according to the manufacturers' instructions, and allowed to dry for several hours before the puppies are allowed to come in contact with the mother. Selamectin-based medications should only be given in the recommended dosages, and should only be administered topically. When given orally, selamectin was shown to cause foetal abnormalities in rats. There are several ingredients used commonly in anti-flea medications that should never be given to pregnant or lactating dogs. Therefore, it's important to read the label very careful or consult with your dog's vet to avoid using products containing these ingredients.  An ingredient called fipronil (which is found in an anti-flea product called Frontline) should never be used on pregnant or lactating mothers, as it has not been proven safe for...

TL;DR in Russian:

Поймите, почему важно лечить мать. Используйте только прописанные препараты, не покупайте лекарства без назначения ветеринара и не пользуйтесь «натуральными» средствами. Используйте препараты, основанные на селамектине, для лечения беременных и кормящих собак. Не используйте препараты, содержащие фипронил и спиносад, так как они небезопасны для кормящих собак.


If the rabbit is not showing signs of improvement, then call the vet and tell them you are having an emergency issue with your rabbit. If your regular veterinarian is not available, for instance the problem is occurring on a day the veterinary office is closed, then you should call an emergency veterinary office in your area. Your veterinary office may ask you some questions about your rabbit's condition. Then the person on the phone should help you assess whether the rabbit needs to be seen. If you need to transport the rabbit to a vet, keep cooling it as you go. Wrap the rabbit in a damp towel and have the air conditioning on in the car. Transporting a rabbit with heat stroke, while continuing to try to cool it down, may require two people. However, if you don't have anyone to help, just keep the temperature in the car cool and give the rabbit access to cool water. Act calmly and quietly. Some rabbits can really sense stress and react physically to being stressed themselves. They have sensitive systems, so whatever you can do to keep them calm will help. Petting your rabbit softly and covering its eyes may help to keep it calm. In cases of extreme heat stroke, it is necessary to provide cool intravenous fluids. This will allow the veterinarian to bring the rabbit's core temperature down. This is the best, and usually the only, treatment a veterinarian can provide for heat stroke. Getting these fluids can also help vital organs that have started to shut down as a result of dehydration.

TL;DR in Russian:

Обратитесь за неотложной ветеринарной помощью. Обеспечьте кролику прохладу во время транспортировки. Не создавайте дополнительный стресс для кролика. Поймите, что неотложная ветеринарная помощь обычно подразумевает дальнейшее охлаждение организма животного.


If the rash continues to spread over your body or does not seem to be improving, despite home treatments, it may be time to see your doctor. Your doctor should examine the rash and prescribe a treatment or medication to help get rid of the rash. As well, if you experience severe symptoms like difficulty breathing or swallowing, fever, or swelling of your skin or limbs, the rash may be a sign of a more serious medical issue and should be checked by your doctor. Your doctor, or dermatologist, will start by looking for the primary and more prominent feature of the rash. She may notice if the rash is circular in shape, ring-shaped, linear, or snake-like. She may also make note of the rash’s density, color, size, level of tenderness, and temperature (warm or cold to the touch). Finally, she may look at how the rash is distributed on your body, and if it only appears in certain areas or parts of your body.  Your doctor may also run tests on your rash, such as a microscopic analysis of a skin sample and other laboratory tests. She may also run a patch test on you to determine if you are allergic to certain substances.  You may also be required to undergo blood tests to determine if the rash may be a symptom of a viral infection or disease. If your doctor diagnoses you with a non-infectious rash due to an allergy or contact with an irritant, she may prescribe a cortisone cream or a medicated ointment to treat the rash.  If your doctor diagnoses your rash as a symptom of eczema, she may prescribe topical steroids and medicated creams for eczema. If your rash is diagnosed as a symptom of a fungal infection like tinea or ringworm, your doctor may prescribe a topical or oral antifungal medication. If your rash is diagnosed as a symptom of a viral infection like herpes, your doctor may prescribe oral or intravenous antiviral medication. If you think your rash or hives may be due to a reaction from medication you are taking or have taken recently, you should speak to your doctor about switching medications. Never switch or...

TL;DR in Russian:

В случае серьезных симптомов обратитесь за медицинской помощью. Покажите врачу пораженные сыпью участки кожи. Проконсультируйтесь с врачом относительно лекарственных препаратов. Узнайте у врача насчет замены принимаемых препаратов. Запишитесь на следующий прием к врачу.


If the rash is swollen or irritated, soothe it by applying a clean towel soaked in cold water. Lay the compress over the irritated area and leave it on for 5-10 minutes at a time.  Do not rub the compress on your skin, as this can irritate the rash further. Change the compress every 5-10 minutes so the area stays cool. Hydrocortisone helps to reduce redness and swelling on your skin. Look for hydrocortisone cream at your local drugstore or pharmacy. Apply the cream once or twice a day to your skin with a clean finger. Stop using the hydrocortisone ointment once your skin heals, as using it on healthy skin can cause redness. Get aloe vera in the form of a gel or ointment. You can also use the fresh juice from an aloe vera plant on your skin. Put one to two layers of aloe vera on your skin once or twice a day to help it heal. Calendula usually comes in the form of an ointment. Apply it with clean fingers to the area one to two times a day. Look for calendula ointment at your local health food store or online. Tea tree oil has antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties that can help heal irritated skin. Dilute the tea tree oil before you apply it, as it can be very strong. Combine two to four drops of tea tree oil with 1 to 2 tablespoons (15 to 30 ml) water. Dip a cotton pad or a clean cloth in the mixture and dab it on the scrape or cut. Do this once a day until your skin heals.  Look for tea tree oil at your local health food store or online. You can also have a warm bath with two to four drops of tea tree oil in the water, exposing your skin to the oil. Thick gels like petroleum jelly (like Vaseline) are good for soothing skin that is dry and irritated due to a rash. Use clean fingers to apply one to two layers of petroleum jelly on the area. Do this 1-3 times a day to keep the area moist and to reduce any itching or swelling. Chemicals and artificial fragrances can irritate your skin further. Stay away from soaps, lotions, and sprays that contain these ingredients, so your skin can heal. Read the...

TL;DR in Russian:

Используйте прохладный компресс, чтобы успокоить кожу. Нанесите гидрокортизоновую мазь. Нанесите алоэ вера или календулу на раздраженную кожу. Для успокоения кожи сделайте компресс из масла чайного дерева. Смажьте сыпь вазелином. Старайтесь не пользоваться мылом или лосьонами с агрессивными ингредиентами или запахами. Не расчесывайте и не ковыряйте сыпь. Обратитесь к врачу-дерматологу, если сыпь болезненная, отекшая или горячая на ощупь. Обсудите варианты лечения.


If the relationship is not worth saving, you will be able to see that when both of you are calm. Additionally, breaking up out of anger can make it very difficult to find closure. Make sure you're feeling rational and have taken some time to really think about it before you have "the talk." Agree to not see each other for a week or two, and be sure to clarify that you are still together and your relationship will remain exclusive during this time. Don't spend time together, don't talk on the phone, don't send each other messages. This trial separation might help you see how much you value the relationship...or don't. If it's difficult at first, but if you find yourself at peace without this person in your life, breaking up is probably a good idea. If you enjoy the first few days but then find yourself missing this person and feeling like your life is incomplete without them, you should probably try to repair the relationship. See more details in How to Give Each Other Space. If you've taken the time to think about whether or not you should end the relationship, then you can see if the signs of a good relationship apply to you, too. Here are some signs that you should fight to stay with the person you're with, even if it means that you have to take some drastic changes:  There is a core foundation of similar values and beliefs that you share, especially spiritual and moral values. You still trust each other; you know your partner is on your side and have faith they will work with you for the greater good of your household. Hard times have taken over suddenly without giving you time to find your center. Health problems, trauma, financial problems, addiction regressions and depression can come on in an instant and make things look really dark. Give it time, let the smoke clear, and try to be a friend to each other until it's over. You are caught in a negative response cycle where negative behavior triggers more negative behavior. Break the cycle by gaining control of your own negative reactions, call for a peace...

TL;DR in Russian:

Не расставайтесь под влиянием момента. Побудьте наедине с собой, если вы хотите подумать о разрыве. Подумайте, стоит ли спасать эти отношения.


If the report guidelines give you a number of sources to use, or a limit on how many of a specific type of source you can use, be sure to follow those guidelines carefully. No matter how good your writing is, if you don’t source your report properly, you won’t get good feedback. Any sources you need should be authoritative, like books, newspapers, or scholarly articles written on the subject.  If you don’t have guidelines on how many sources to use, try to find 1-2 reputable sources for each page of the report. Sources can be divided into primary sources, like original written works, court records, and interviews, and secondary sources, like reference books and reviews. Databases, abstracts, and indexes are considered tertiary sources, and can be used to help you find primary and secondary sources for your report.  If you’re writing a business report, you may be given some supplementary materials, such as market research or sales reports, or you may need to compile this information yourself. Even if you’re allowed to use online sources, the best place to start doing research is the library. Visit your school’s library, a public library in your area, or even a nearby college or university library when you’re getting ready to start your report. Search the library’s database to gain access to books, scholarly journals, periodicals, and other sources that might not be available online.  Librarians are an excellent resource when you're working on a report. They can help you find books, articles, and other credible sources. Often, a teacher will limit how many online sources you can use. If you find most of the information you need in the library, you can then use your online sources for details that you couldn’t find anywhere else. Since anyone can write something and put it online, it can be hard sometimes to sift through all of the material on the internet to find authoritative sources. To ensure you’re getting high-level sources, start by using an academic search engine, like Google Scholar, Lexis Nexis, or...

If the rock you’ve found is a freshly fallen meteorite, it will be black and shiny as a result of having burned through the atmosphere. After a long time spent on Earth, however, the iron metal in the meteorite will turn to rust, leaving the meteorite a rusty brown.  This rusting starts out as small red and orange spots on the surface of the meteorite that slowly expand to cover more and more of the rock. You may still be able to see the black crust even if part of it has begun to rust.  The meteorite may be black in color but with slight variations (e.g., steely bluish black). However, if the rock you’ve found isn’t at all close to black or brown in color, then it is not a meteorite. Contrary to what you might expect, most meteorites are not round. Instead, they are typically quite irregular, with sides of varying size and shape. Although some meteorites may develop a conical shape, most will not appear aerodynamic once they land.  Although irregular in shape, most meteorites will have edges that are rounded rather than sharp.  If the rock you’ve found is relatively normal in shape, or is round like a ball, it may still be a meteorite. However, the vast majority of meteorites are irregular in shape. As rocks pass through the Earth’s atmosphere, their surfaces begin to melt and air pressure forces the molten material back, leaving a featureless, melt-like surface called a fusion crust. If your rock’s surface looks like it has melted and shifted, it may be a meteorite.  A fusion crust will most likely be smooth and featureless, though it may also include ripple marks and “droplets” where molten stone had moved and resolidified. If your rock does not have a fusion crust, it is most likely not a meteorite. The fusion crust may look like a black eggshell coating the rock.  Rocks in the desert will sometimes develop a shiny black exterior that looks similar to fusion crust. If you found your rock in a desert environment, consider whether its black surface might be desert varnish. Flow lines are small streaks on...

TL;DR in Russian:

Оцените, имеет ли камень черный или ржаво-бурый цвет. Убедитесь, что камень имеет неправильную форму. Определите, имеет ли камень кору плавления. Проверьте, есть ли линии тока там, где поверхность плавилась. Поищите ямки и углубления на поверхности камня. Убедитесь, что камень не пористый и не полон дырок.


If the ruptured cyst is functional cyst, that means it can be treated at home. Your doctor might suggest that you take over-the-counter pain meds to help alleviate the pain. If your doctor suggests this, you can take NSAIDs, such as ibuprofen or Aleve, or acetaminophen, like Tylenol. If you are treating the ruptured cyst at home, use heat. You can use a hot water bottle or a heating pad to relieve pain on your abdomen and lower back. You may also consider soaking in a hot bath. Make sure to use caution when using heat against your skin. Always put a towel or cloth between the source of heat and your skin to protect from burning. Herbal teas don’t specifically treat the ruptured cyst, but they can help with pain. Many herbal teas can help loosen tense, aching muscles.  Try chamomile, mint, raspberry, or blackberry teas. These teas also have a boosting effect for anxious moods. If you have pain from a ruptured cyst, take it easy for a few days. Try not to do more than is necessary, and if the pain is too bad, consider staying home from work or school. Limit physical activity, such as strenuous exercise. You should also limit sexual activity until your pain has subsided.

TL;DR in Russian:

Примите обезболивающее. Уймите боль с помощью тепла. Выпейте травяной чай. Отдыхайте.


If the scratch has penetrated all the layers of paint down to bare metal, it’s important to add a layer of primer.  The primer will prevent rust from developing beneath the surface of the paint, as well as providing a good surface to apply the touch up paint to.  Use a small brush to apply a thin layer of primer to any exposed paint. Be sure to apply the primer to any metal you sanded rust off of. Allow the primer to dry completely.  Then, take your automotive paint and apply a layer of it over the area you painted with primer.  If the scratch is fairly small, try dabbing the paint onto the scratch and allowing it to spread and settle on its own.  Dabbing the paint often yields the flattest finished product.  A toothpick may work for thinner scratches. Most automotive touch up paints will not require multiple layers. Once the primer and the touch up paint have both dried, you may want to add a layer of clear coat.  Because most clear coat comes in a spray can, it’s important that you take steps to prevent over-spray, or accidentally applying clear coat to areas you didn’t intend to.  To prevent this, cut a hole through a piece of cardboard and hold it between the can of clear coat and the scratch, then use the cardboard to help direct the flow of the clear coat spray.  Unlike a nozzle, the hole in the cardboard will allow the clear coat to mist onto the surface of the paint, rather than striking it as a jet and dripping. Immediately dab up any dripping clear coat with a clean rag. Ensure the clear coat is completely dry, then apply some polishing compound to the area.  Use a polishing wheel to polish the paint with the compound, in order to ensure it appears uniform with the rest of the car’s body.  The rubbing compound will remove any small gaps in the paint and create a more professional finish. Stop polishing the area when the shiny paint is revealed by the polishing wheel. Rinse the car, then use a bucket of water mixed with automotive soap to wash the entire car.  Once done, rinse and dry it, and apply a...

TL;DR in Russian:

Покройте оголенный металл грунтовкой. Покройте царапину слоем краски. Нанесите поверх высохшей краски слой прозрачного лака. Воспользуйтесь полиролью, чтобы заставить отремонтированное место засиять. Помойте машину и покройте ее воском.


If the scratch is thick enough to “catch” your fingernail, you can try sanding it out. To do this properly, though, you’ll need to have several grades of sandpaper, from 800 grit to 1500 or even 2000.  Higher numbers indicate finer sandpaper. You can find sandpaper at any store that sells hardware supplies. You can often find it in assorted packs so you don’t have to buy a separate pack for each grade. Take a piece, and fold it in thirds. This will give you a smaller surface to work with, and make it easier to hold the paper. Run some water over the sandpaper. It’s very important to wet the sandpaper--this helps it from becoming too abrasive, and also helps clear away grit and dust as you work. The buffing motion combined with the abrasiveness of the sandpaper can help remove many scratches. Work gently, however. Being too forceful can cause new scratches. Keep buffing until the scratch disappears. Use a fresh, damp cloth and wipe down the area you’ve been working on. Take a new, clean cloth and run it over everything until it's all dry. Examine the scratch area. It should look different, and the scratch may have been removed. If it’s still visible, however, you can try rubbing it again with a finer grade of sandpaper. Try 1200 grit, for instance, and follow the same procedure as before.  Make sure to wet the sandpaper each time, and to work gently.  If 1200 grit doesn’t work, move up to an even finer grade (like 1500), and so on. Once the scratch is fully removed, polishing the area will make everything look like new. Get some commercial plastic or acrylic polishing compound and place some on a clean cloth. Wipe the whole plastic area to blend everything in. Then take a clean cloth and wipe off the excess. You can find plastic polishing compound at most big-box stores, either in the auto supply or home cleaning sections.

TL;DR in Russian:

Купите наждачную бумагу нескольких зернистостей. Для начала смочите шкурку с зернистостью 800. Отшлифуйте царапину круговыми движениями. Протрите отшлифованный участок. При необходимости возьмите мелкозернистую наждачную бумагу. Отполируйте поверхность.


If the sesame seeds you bought are already toasted, you can skip this step. Otherwise, toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over low heat, stirring constantly. After about 2 minutes, they will turn golden and fragrant. Pour them onto a small dish so that they can cool off. You can peel them completely, or peel them in alternating stripes for a nicer presentation. Slice the cucumbers in half lengthwise. Scrape the seeds out with a spoon and discard them. You should do this even if you are using a "seedless" variety. You can do this with a sharp knife or a food processor. The slices need to be almost paper thin. Cover your work surface with a paper towel. Spread the cucumbers in an even layer on top, then lay another paper towel on top. Gently pat the paper towel to soak up any excess moisture. Pour the vinegar into a medium-sized serving bowl. Add the sugar and the salt. Stir everything together with a fork or mini whisk until the salt and sugar dissolve. Toss everything together with a pair of salad tongs. Make sure that you grab the cucumbers from the bottom of the bowl as well. Japanese cucumber salad is a great accompaniment to many Japanese dishes, including sushi and sashimi.

If the site owner and the host are refusing the remove your content, you may have to resort to legal measures. This will be most effective if either the site owner or the hosting company are in the same country as you. Remember, this method will only be useful if the content that is posted is actually illegal (slanderous, defamatory, copyright). It is not illegal for someone to just post your name on a website. This is the cheapest option, and is often good enough to scare the recipient into taking down the content. You only need a few hours of the lawyer's time to perform this, so it shouldn't cost too much. Send the notice to both the site owner and the hosting company. This is the most expensive solution, and should only be attempted if you are absolutely sure the content is illegal. You'll have to pay legal fees, unless you are able to win your case and have the site owner or host pay them. Consult with a lawyer to determine if this is the correct course of action for you. You'll have a very hard time even getting a court date if the host is from a different country. See How to Get a Court Order for more information on filing a court order.

If the site that you're trying to access is blocked specifically on your computer, you may be able to access it by using the website's mobile version, IP address, or Google Translate. In the event that you're unable to access websites that are blocked on your Internet connection, however, you'll need to use a VPN. VPNs can be difficult to install on monitored or controlled computers (e.g., library, school, or work machines); however, if you use a personal computer for work, you should be able to install the VPN while on your own wireless network. Many websites, such as Facebook and YouTube, have mobile alternatives that can be visited by typing "m." between the "www." section of the website's address and the website's name. Many blocking services do not account for the mobile versions of blocked sites. For example, you would access the mobile version of Facebook by going to "https://www.m.facebook.com/" in your browser. You can find a website's IP address, which is its raw numerical address, on any major computer platform, after which point you can enter the IP address into the browser's URL bar the same way that you'd search for a regular address (e.g., "https://www.google.com/").  This won't work for all websites; some services hide their IP addresses, and others use multiple IP addresses which aren't always reliable. If you don't have access to Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac) on the computer on which sites are blocked, you can use a personal computer on an unrestricted network to find the IP address and then just use the address on your restricted computer. This method doesn't always work, but it provides a simple alternative to using a proxy site or a portable browser:  Go to https://translate.google.com/ in your browser. Type your website's address into the left text box. Select any language other than the website's original language for the right-most box. Click the website's link in the right-most box. Click the "Go to [Website]" link on the left side of the page if the website doesn't...

If the situation warrants it, let the authorities handle cases in which you've been emotionally or physically tormented. Keep records and a chronological list of all the things that have happened and discuss pressing charges.  If someone borrowed your car and dented it or borrowed money and never paid you back, detail everything. Keep receipts, written promises, emails, etc. and write up your genuine memory of conversations and exchanges between you. Then go see a lawyer or the police and ask what your chances are of getting an arrest or taking an action for theft, embezzlement, vandalizing, stalking, conversion, or defamation. Always keep your revenge legal. If you want to exact revenge on someone, never cross the line. Vigilantes rightfully end up in jail and harming another isn't going to solve anything. Stay within the law and within your own conscience too. Stealing someone's mail may be thrilling in the moment, but it's also a federal crime. Is that worth it? No. If they've opened you up to harm, don't hold back speaking your mind around them. Use your wit to make passing comments about the other person's attitude or lack of it. Insult them to their face. Be careful. Being picky or nasty means you stoop to their level. It can also be tiring constantly observing them and finding ways to pick them apart. It's likely that they'll resort to doing the same too, so this can backfire and result in a circle of Hatfield-and-McCoy style revenges. Prove to them that they are wrong. If the person undermined you, be the real deal in all times.  If someone tried to undermine you by spreading gossip about you that stopped your promotion, work harder than ever to get that promotion during the next quarter. Work hard and keep your distance from that person until management realizes it was just gossip and that you're the real deal. Be the real deal in all situations. Create a situation where the person who hurt you looks or appears clumsy, disorganized, or uncoordinated. Without letting your target know you wish to...

If the skin flap is still attached to the skin tear, use a damp cotton tip to gently ease it back into place. You can also use tweezers or a gloved finger to do this. This will help the skin tear to heal properly. Petroleum jelly gauze is a good option for skin tears as it will protect it and keep it moist so it can heal. Petroleum jelly gauze comes in strips. Use scissors to cut the gauze to fit the area. Then, apply the gauze over the skin tear, leaving a one-inch border around the skin tear. You can get petroleum jelly gauze online or at your local drugstore. Kerlix bandages are made of thick gauze. They will help to protect the skin tear and keep it moist. Use paper tape to the bandage to keep the gauze in place. Make sure you only apply tape to the gauze, not to the skin. You will need to change out the Kerlix bandage every one to two hours to ensure it does not dry to the skin tear. Change the bandages on the skin tear once to twice a day. Soak the bandages in saline solution to make removing them easier, especially if they have an adhesive. Lift the bandages off and away from the direction of the attached skin flap. Clean the skin tear with water before you apply a new bandage. You should also check the skin tear for any signs of infection, such as swelling, odor, pus, or heat coming from the skin tear. If you suspect the skin tear is infected, or it does not appear to be getting better, see a doctor.

TL;DR in Russian:

По возможности приложите к ране кожный лоскут. Наложите марлевую повязку с вазелином. Перевяжите рану марлевой повязкой «Керликс». Регулярно меняйте повязку.


If the skin is broken near your injured toe, you are at higher risk of developing an infection within the bone or the surrounding tissues. Infections get swollen, red, warm and very tender to the touch. Sometimes they leak pus (which represents your white blood cells at work) and smell bad. If you experienced an open compound fracture, your doctor may recommend a precautionary two-week course of oral antibiotics to deter the growth and spread of bacteria.  Your doctor will examine the area carefully and prescribe antibiotics if there is an infection. Your doctor may recommend a tetanus shot following a serious fracture if it was caused by puncturing or lacerating your skin. Orthotics are customized shoe inserts that support the arch of your foot and promote better biomechanics while walking and running. Following a broken toe, especially if the big toe is involved, your gait and foot biomechanics may be negatively altered from limping and avoiding toeing off. Orthotics will help reduce the risk of problems developing in other joints such as the ankle, knee and hips. With a severe fracture, there's always a risk of arthritis developing in surrounding joints, but orthotics can mitigate the risk. After the pain and inflammation have disappeared and the broken bone is healed, you may notice the range of motion or strength within your foot is reduced. As such, ask your doctor for a referral to a sports medicine specialist or physiotherapist who can offer a variety of tailored strengthening exercises, stretches and therapies in order to improve your range of motion, balance, coordination and strength. Other health professionals that may be able to help rehabilitate your toe/foot include podiatrists, osteopaths and chiropractors.

TL;DR in Russian:

Остерегайтесь признаков инфекции. Носите ортопедическую обувь. Пройдите физиотерапию.


If the skin tear causes an open wound, you may need to see a doctor. The doctor can then use medical glue to close the skin tear. This will help the skin tear to heal and prevent the tear from becoming infected. If the skin tear is very painful, the doctor may numb the area before they apply the medical glue. The doctor may also suggest stitches on the skin tear to close the skin. This may be an option if the skin tear is severe and is at risk of infection. The doctor will use a local anesthesia on the area before they stitch it up.

TL;DR in Russian:

Попросите врача заклеить разрыв медицинским клеем. Обсудите с врачом необходимость в наложении швов.


If the soil is too dry, it will soak up all of the water from the jug before you leave on your trip. By the time you get back, there may not even be any water left in the jug. Water the soil before making the string drip system to avoid this issue. Position the jug so that it is out of direct sunlight; this will reduce the amount of evaporation. If you are only going for a few days and have a small plant, a mason jar will be enough. Don't fill the jug with water yet. This method will keep your plants watered for up to a week. The twine needs to be long enough to extend from the bottom of the jug to the base of the plant. If you can't find cotton or nylon twine, or if it is too thin, braid 3 strips of cotton fabric together, and use that instead. The string must be able to hold water. If it can't hold water, this method won't work. The string must reach the bottom of the jug. If you wish to water more than 1 plant, it might be a good idea to set up more jugs, 1 for each plant. This way, you won't run into the risk of the jug running out of water while you are away. If you have a few plants that don't require a lot of water, such as succulents, you might be able to get away with a single jug for 2 or 3 plants. Even if the jug does run out of water, your plants may still survive because of their water-retaining properties. The string needs to be about 3 inches (7.62 centimeters) deep. Also, make sure that the string is out of direct sunlight. Partial sun is fine, but if there is too much sunlight, the string will dry out before it can get the water to the plant. If your plants need fertilizer, you can also add some liquid fertilizer into the water at this time. If your plant is in a sunny spot, consider putting a piece of duct tape over the mouth of the jug; be careful not to cover the string, however. This will help slow down the rate of evaporation. If the jug is too low, put it on top of a book, a block, or an upturned pot to raise it up a little. This way, the water will be able to drip down the string.
