Determine ahead of time what rewards will be at small milestones of accomplishment. Have frequent small rewards and a “grand prize” for completion. If your goal is losing weight, you might buy new clothes to replace old ones that don't fit anymore at each milestone, and then plan a nice vacation for when you've reached your goal. It can be hard to maintain your motivation and dedication to making a change in your life when you can't see immediate results for your efforts. At each low point, have faith that persisting and being consistent in reaching your goal will pay off in the long run. If you're trying to lose weight and are struggling to keep up with your workouts, just think about how each minute you exercise burns fat and gets you closer to your goal. Fearing change often stops us from achieving a goal. Making a goal sounds good at the time, but then the fear of change surfaces. To avoid this happening to you, realize that your excuses are a way of covering up a fear of change.  Look beyond "I can't" and start substituting this with "I can" and "I am". Identify your excuses for not going through with parts of your goal. By listing excuses, you can see them for what they are and move beyond the fear of change. Sidestep blaming other people or circumstances for not achieving your goals. If you take responsibility for achieving your goal, these external factors cannot sap your power to do what you've said you'd do. Write down the things you do out of habit that distract you from what really matters. Then, list things that you consider to be more positive and fulfilling behaviors and choices you want to make instead. This includes adjusting the habits mentioned in a previous step, even if they were things you once enjoyed. For instance, if are trying to lose weight and you eat out with family or friends as bonding time, either choose restaurants that offer healthy meals or decide to do something else fun together instead of eating out. Everyone encounters occasional outside stressors and events that take us...

TL;DR in Russian:

Награждайте себя. Напоминайте себе о своих успехах. Посмотрите в лицо страху перемен. Определите, какие пагубные привычки у вас есть. Оступившись, начните заново. Положитесь на свою группу поддержки. Ведите дневник.


Determine how fluent you want to become and set small goals that will help you gradually reach your desired level of knowledge.  Small steps are easier to work through. For example, if learning 40 new words each month seems intimidating, tell yourself to learn 10 new words each week. The smaller goal might be easier to work toward. Change your goals if you need to. If your current goals are too stressful and difficult to meet, you'll become discouraged and may quit your studies as a result. On the other hand, if your current goals do not challenge you enough, you may become bored and quit your studies because of that. Practice your verbal (listening/speaking) and written (reading/writing) skills each day. Schedule your practices for one specific time each day, and commit to studying during that time. Tell your teacher, classmates, friends, or relatives about your schedule and ask them to check on your progress. You might feel more motivated to stick to your schedule if you're worried about the consequences of straying from it. Take an actual English class or find a small group of other English students to practice with. Studying the language with other people will allow you to learn from each other.  Formal English classes work well because they are led by professional teachers. Trust your English instructor. Don't be afraid to make mistakes or ask questions; correcting you and answering those questions is part of your instructor's job. When learning English informally, try to work in small groups instead of large groups. Smaller crowds may make you feel more comfortable and less embarrassed. Don't be afraid of making mistakes when you practice your English. If you stop yourself from practicing because you feel insecure about your current skill level, you won't be able to improve. When you don't feel confident, review the progress you've already made with your English studies. By realizing how much you've already accomplished, you might feel encouraged to continue improving yourself. Learning English can be...

Determine how many servings of spaghetti you'd like for each person you're feeding. Most packages of spaghetti will tell you how much of the box to cook to get a desired number of servings. For example, if you're making spaghetti for 3 people, cook half of the box. To measure spaghetti perfectly, you can use kitchen tools or household objects also.  To avoid overcrowding the pot, don't cook more than 16 ounces (892 g) of spaghetti at a time. If you're cooking 12 to 16 ounces (670 to 892 g) of spaghetti, use a 5 to 6-quart (4.7 to 5.6 liter) pot. For less than this, you can use a 3 or 4-quart (2.8 to 3.7 liter) pot. Fill whichever size pot you're using 3/4 full of water. If you use a pot that's too small, the noodles will clump together as they cook. Once the noodles are done to your liking, turn off the burner and set a colander or strainer in the sink. Carefully lift the pot of spaghetti over to the sink and slowly pour it into the colander.  Always pour the hot water and noodles away from your body so the steam moves away from your face. Avoid rinsing the drained noodles with cold water. Doing so will make it harder for the sauce to stick to the noodles.

Determine if a blaster is right for your needs. If your paint covers a large area, then a blaster may be a better choice over a paint stripper solution. One form of blasting is soda blasting, which uses baking soda as the scouring agents. Soda blasting is also much more environmentally-friendly than using chemicals, and will not damage the concrete underneath. To soda blast, you will need a pot blaster. Your local hardware store may be able to rent them to you. You will also need special sodium bicarbonate. The baking powder that you buy at the grocery store is too fine to use in a soda blaster. The proper powder should be available where you rent the blaster, but can also be ordered online. Most standard sand blasters cannot work with soda. You will need to obtain a specialized soda blaster in order to use sodium bicarbonate. Work slowly, holding the nozzle about a foot and a half away from the ground. Be sure to wear a respirator to avoid inhaling particles. Move the nozzle evenly across the painted area to make sure that no paint gets left behind.  If blasting near vegetation, be sure to avoid getting excess particles on plants. The high pH soda can cause browning and death in flowers and bushes. If you have a lot of paint to remove, consider hiring a professional blaster. The amount of blasting material needed and the size of the blasting unit will most likely be far too much to afford on your own.

Determine if red and yellow rings are touching; if so, this is a venomous coral snake. This simple color check is the easiest way to tell the difference between a coral snake and a scarlet king snake in the US.  On a coral snake, the ring pattern is red, yellow, black, yellow, red. In the case of a scarlet king snake, the ring pattern is red, black, yellow, black, red, or maybe blue. The venomous coral snake's tail has only black and yellow bands with no red. The non-venomous scarlet king snake's band pattern remains the same throughout the length of his body. Determine if its head is yellow and black or red and black. The coral snake's head is black, with a short snout.  The scarlet king snake's head is mostly red with an elongated snout. People who live in regions where coral and scarlet king snakes are common have made up these easy-to-remember rhymes to help figure out which is which:  Red touches yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, friend of Jack. Red touches yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, venom lack. Red touches yellow, death says hello. Black touches red, keep your head. Yellow touches red, you'll be dead. Red touches black, eat Cracker Jacks. Red touches yellow, you're a dead fellow. Red touches black you're all right Jack. The suggestions in this article only reliably apply to coral snakes native to North America: Micrurus fulvius (Eastern or common coral snake),Micrurus tener (Texas coral snake), and Micruroides euryxanthus (Arizona coral snake), found in the southern and western United States.  Unfortunately, elsewhere in the world, the patterning can be quite different and no assumptions can be made about venomous or non-venomous natures of the snake without knowing the actual snake's species. This means that they rhymes don't apply to coral snakes elsewhere, nor to the snakes that mimic them.

TL;DR in Russian:

Осмотрите кольцевой узор змеи. Обратите внимание, имеет ли змея хвост черного цвета. Взгляните на цвет и форму головы змеи. Запомните рифмы, чтобы научиться отличать одну змею от другой. Не забывайте, что данные правила применимы только к змеям в Соединенных Штатах.


Determine if you’ve been tired lately due to lack of sleep or whether it might be a cold or the flu. Evaluate where it hurts. Typical signs of the flu include:  Cough Fever (often accompanied by chills) Sore throat Headache Neck and back pains Runny nose, sinus pressure Sometimes low grade fevers go unnoticed because they can sometimes start before the rest of your flu symptoms (such as aches and pains). And if you feel certain you have a fever, it’s good to monitor it to make sure you don’t let it get too high. Depending on your symptoms, you will probably want to get some over the counter cold and flu remedies.  Early intervention is key to reducing symptoms and feeling better. Some useful remedies might be:  Cough syrup (it can be especially helpful if you’re having trouble sleeping) Pain relievers (this would be for fevers, headaches, and any body pain). Either acetaminophen (Tylenol, store brands) or ibuprofen (Advil, store brands) are good choices. Sinus spray (good for helping to keep your nose clear of mucus) For some people, having the flu can severely tax an already-compromised immune system. An antiviral can help you avoid the worst of the flu symptoms, and shorten the time you are ill. If you have various other health concerns, are pregnant, or over 65 you might be a good candidate for an antiviral prescription, which needs to be taken during the early stages of the flu.

Determine rodent type based on the rodent dropping you find.  Mice droppings are a ¼ inch long with pointy ends, and rat droppings are ½-¾ inch with relatively rectangular or sausage like shapes. Squirrel droppings are roughly 3/8 inch with rounded edges, and can be recognized by the fact that they lighten in color over time. There are two common types of rats.  Brown rats (Norway rats) are particularly common.  Their bodies are 7-10 inches long, they have gray-brown fur, and a tail that is shorter than their body.  Indoors, they live in basements and lower portions of buildings. Black rats (roof rats) are smaller, with 6-8 inch bodies, darker gray or black fur, and have tails that are longer than their bodies.  Indoors, they lives in attics, voids in ceilings, and the upper portions of buildings. Peanut butter is a great option, as it appeals to all types of rodents.  Certain types of bait will also work better during certain times of the year.  For rats and mice, use the kind of food they've been eating in your house as bait. For example, if a rat has been eating your dog's food, use that same dog food to bait the rat into a trap. For squirrels, use peanut butter, nuts, grains, seeds, and tender fruits and vegetables.

Determine the exact placement of the mantel shelf above your fireplace. Most fireplace mantel shelves are placed 50-60 inches above the floor. When positioning your shelf, make sure to think about the combustible height. Since wood is a combustible  material, there are codes and guidelines that must be followed when placing a mantel over a combustible chamber, such as a fireplace.  If a mantel is 10" wide, the minimum distance from the top of the fireplace is usually 19". For an 8" wide mantel, the distance is 17", and for 6" it's 15".  After levelling the shelf, draw a line on the wall that corresponds to the edge of the mantel. Make a mark in the direct center of your fireplace. You want to make sure your mantel isn't one-sided. The cleat is what holds the mantel shelf to the wall. The mounting board should be long enough to fit the width of your shelf.  Measure the length of the cleat. Then, using that measurement, find the center line and mark that on the cleat.  You will line this mark up with the mark you made on the wall in Step 1. The top of the cleat needs to have an angled edge, not a straight edge. Take a saw and cut a 45 degree angle lengthwise along one edge of the cleat. This is what the mantel hangs on. Dry-fit the angled edge of the cleat into the mantel. Make sure they fit snugly together so that the mounting board will support the mantel. If you do not want to saw an angled edge, you can use a flat edged cleat. Make sure your cleat is wide enough for the mantel to be fastened to the cleat with screws. Dry-fit the mounting board into the mantel. Using a tape measure, measure the length from the top edge of the mantel to the bottom edge of the cleat. Draw a second line beneath the line drawn on the wall from Step 1 using the measurement you just took. If you do not want to measure the two pieces together, measure the length of the mantel and the length of the cleat. Add those two measurements together to determine how far to draw the second line beneath the first line. When you hang a mantel,...

Determine what the general field of knowledge you will require to get it answered. For example, if you have a question about your computer, you will want tech experts to help. If your question is related to home improvement, you will want information from contractors. Once you know the general field, look at your question and figure out what niche you fit into. In every general category, there are a variety of sub-fields. For example, if your tech question is about using Windows, you'll want to focus on Windows experts. If your question is about a specific program in Windows, such as Photoshop, you'll want to find Photoshop experts as opposed to Windows experts. Enter in the category you need into a Google search and add the word "forum". For example, if you need to ask Photoshop questions, search for "Photoshop forum". Almost all forums will require you to register for a free account before you can post. beyond forums, you may be able to find more immediate responses by joining a chat room dedicated to your topic. The most popular chat room network is Internet Relay Chat (IRC), which contains a staggering number of chat rooms for just about any topic imaginable. For more information on using and navigating IRC, see this guide. There are several sites that allow you to post any question in the hopes that you will get it answered. These sites can be good for general questions, but you are less likely to get a quality answer from an expert in the field. Take all responses with a grain of salt. Popular sites include:  Stack Exchange Ask.com Yahoo Answers Quora Wiki Answers Every community on the internet has its own style and set of rules (both written and unwritten). Spend some time reading through other posts before making your own. This will help you learn the etiquette for that specific forum. Knowing how to ask your question in a way that fits in with that culture can really help you get the answers you need.

Determine what you are afraid of and challenge it. When it comes to being fearful of sex, you need to know what has caused you to be afraid. Identifying specific fears will help you focus on finding a solution.  Sit down and make a list of the things you fear about sex. For example, you may not know how to approach the subject, you might be afraid of doing something wrong, or you're embarrassed of how you look naked. Challenge your fears by listing possible solutions to resolve your fears. For example, if you don't know how to approach the subject with someone, ask a trusted friend how they do it, or find someone who does it well and model his behavior. Even watching a romantic movie might help. If you are afraid of doing something wrong, you need to study the subject and figure out what techniques work best for you. Preparation and knowledge will lessen any fear. The structure and function of the human body have been studied for centuries. There are volumes of information you can refer to if you are unaware of some or all parts of the female or male anatomy.  If your fear is related to not knowing enough about a woman's and man's external genitalia, then it is time to get educated. The female genitalia includes: the vagina, a tubular organ connecting the genitals with the uterus; the uterus, a hollow muscular organ where a fetus grows during pregnancy; the vulva includes all the visible external aspects (mons pubis, labia majora, labia minora, clitoris, urethra, vaginal vestibule, perineal body); glans, the tip of the clitoris that is a highly sensitive organ. The male genitalia includes: the penis, cylindrical mass of penile tissue; the testes, oval, glandular organs contained inside the skin pouch called the scrotum; glans, the structure at the tip of the penis. The four stages of sexual response are: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and refractory period.  An orgasm is a genital reflex governed by the nerves in the spinal cord and is experienced differently by women and men.  Once you understand the basic...

Determine where your property line is before you start so that you don't accidentally go over. The best advice is to hire a Registered Land Surveyor in your home state to mark the property line for you before you begin construction. Your city or town usually does not keep very detailed records of your property's boundary information. GIS (geographic information system) maps and Assessors maps are highly inaccurate when it comes to property boundaries. You can search for Property\Survey Pins on your property. These are also located on the corners of a lot. Just because an old fence or other “assumed” property boundary was\is in place that does not always mean that it is correct. Choose a fence height before getting too far into the project. Six foot is normal for a privacy fence, a livestock fence four feet high is usually sufficient, and picket fences are often three feet high. Fence height is important in the early stages, as it determines things like post hole depth. Most cities have a height ordinance, so be sure to check this before you choose your fence height. Place stakes at the corners roughly where you wish your fence to go. Tie a string around the stakes and run the string between stakes. Use a square or square-level to make sure that the corners" where our stakes are placed are squared (the two sides form a 90° angle).   You can also square the corners by measuring the strings. Measure 3' on one side and 4' on the other. If the distance between the two marks (diagonally) is equal to 5', then the corner is square. Measure out lengths of 8' or less along the strings once you've square your corners and stake those locations to indicate the location for your support posts.  You generally want to take the total distance and divide it by 8 but if you have a length of fence that is not divisible by 8, you'll need to break it down into smaller sections. For example, a 24' fence would need 2 middle posts to create the three 8' sections, but a 25' fence would need 3 middle posts at 6.25' for each section in...

Determine whether the problem is with the belt itself or a mechanical issue with the belt drivers. Making this determination will help you make your next step. If the problem is with the belt itself, you may be able to make repairs relatively easily yourself. Motor or mechanical issues may be more difficult to fix at home. When making repairs on your treadmill, it is very important to make sure it is unplugged so that it does not accidentally get turned on and injure you. Spray a towel with a cleaning solution and wipe down the belt. Dirt and debris can collect on the belt, which can slow it down. Debris can also drop from the belt into the interior of the treadmill, causing operating problems.  Begin cleaning at the top of the belt and tug the belt firmly to move it downward until you have cleaned the entire surface. Be sure to let the surface get really dry before you use the machine. A wet belt could cause you to slip and injure yourself. Adjust the belt so that it is centered in the machine. Belts can stretch and begin to lean to one side after frequent use. You can try repositioning the belt from the outside of the treadmill by pulling gently away from the slanted side. If the problem is severe, a technician should look at the issue. If the belt on your treadmill hesitates when you step on it, you may need to lubricate it. This reduces belt friction and can lengthen the life of the belt. Buy treadmill belt lubricant or any silicone lubricant. Spray lubricant in a thin layer between the belt and the treadmill deck. For more information on how to lubricate your treadmill's belt see: How to Lubricate the Deck of a Treadmill. The speed sensor helps to move the belt. If the belt is jerking or not increasing in speed, the sensor might be dirty or have become detached. The sensor is usually in the interior of the treadmill's bulk, near the belt. Consult your owner's manual for the exact location on your machine. If previous steps do not eliminate the problems you are having with your treadmill belt, you may...

Determine whether you have oily skin, normal skin, or dry skin before purchasing an exfoliating product. Dry skin is often flaky or itchy, whereas oily skin can feel greasy or look shiny. Many people have a combination of the two types in different areas, in which case use products for normal skin or products for the type of skin you have most of. If you have oily or normal skin choose a product that contains either benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid. These ingredients can help to improve and prevent breakouts. You can also apply an alpha-hydroxy-acid cleanser, which helps remove dead skin cells. Use a product with retinoic acid to balance out skin tone and reduce wrinkles.  If you have dry skin, avoid using the above products and strong exfoliants that contain glycolic acid. Generally avoid any chemical products and opt for physical-based products that are less invasive. Stay away from products that have higher than 10% glycolic acid or 2% salicylic acid.  If you are allergic to aspirin, you should not use any product containing salicylic acid. If you have sensitive skin, look for products that are labeled as suitable for sensitive skin. Choose a product with smooth, synthetic exfoliating beads.  These products are good for dry or easily irritated skin, too. If your skin is on the oily side, choose a product with coarse, rough beads that will exfoliate more aggressively. Brands like Clarisonic have developed tools that can be used to remove the outer layer of dead or dry skin from your face. These brushes use sonic frequency to remove dirt and debris from your face without irritating your skin. Though not as effective as a professional microdermabrasion treatment, these tools are much less expensive. It is important to clean Clarisonic once a week as it comes into contact with the dirt, bacteria and oils on your face.

Determine whether your theory is valid, and make sure that your experimental results are repeatable. If you accept the theory, you should not be able to disprove it with the tools and information at your disposal. Do not, however, try to spin your theory into absolute fact. You will likely amass a lot of information in your quest to prove your theory. When you are confident that your results are repeatable and your conclusions are valid, try to distill your theory into a paper others can study and understand. Lay out your process in a logical order: first, write an "abstract" that summarizes your theory; then, lay forth your hypothesis, your experimental procedure, and your results. Try to distill your theory into a series of points or arguments. Finally, end the paper with an explanation of your conclusions.  Explain how you defined your question, the approach you took, and how you tested it. A proper report will walk the reader through every relevant thought and action that brought you to your conclusion. Consider your audience. If you want to share your theory with peers in your field, write an formal paper explaining your results. Consider submitting your work to an academic journal. If you want to make your findings accessible to the general public, try distilling your theory into something more digestible: a book, an article, or a video. In the scientific community, theories are not generally considered valid until they have been peer-reviewed. If you submit your findings to an academic journal, another scientist may decide to peer-review—that is to say, test, consider, and replicate—the theory and process that you have put forward. This  will either confirm the theory or leave it in limbo. If the theory survives the test of time, others may eventually try to expand your idea by applying it to other subjects. Your thought process does not need to end after you share your theory. Indeed, you may find that the act of writing up your ideas forces you to consider factors that you've been ignoring. Don't be...

Determine which edges you must seam together and pin the 2 fabric pieces together, right sides facing together, at the seam edges. Insert the pins at a 90 degree angle from the edge so you don't have to remove them as you sew a garment. This will take time, so try to be patient as you work. If you mess up at all, don't worry, that's what your seam ripper is for. You need to make sure that you have the correct needle for the task and the correct thread. Different types of thread and different types of needles work best with different types of fabric.  You'll need different techniques for animal fiber fabrics like silk or wool or alpaca, as opposed to natural fibers like cotton or flax and synthetic fibers like rayon or polyester. Make sure that you know the type of fabric you're using and what type of needle and thread will work best with it. Gently guide the fabric through the machine. Don't push or pull your project, because the machine is supposed to do that itself and you can clog the sewing machine or ruin your garment. Make clothing complete with clean, finished edges. Fold the edge up, wrong side facing in, to the desired width of the hem and press the fold together. Fold the pressed edge up 1 more time and press again. Now, Sew along the top folded edge of the hem, inside of the garment. This could be anything from buttons, elastic, zippers to various fun embroidery or special stitches. The better you get at sewing and making your own clothes the more creative you can get with adding those finishing touches.

Determining what has caused the lack of intimacy in your relationship can really help you move forward and improve it. There are many reasons intimacy dwindles. Start by thinking about why you believed the intimacy is gone, and then discuss this with your partner. Ask them if they think the intimacy has decreased, and why.  This can be very effective, especially if you and your partner have different reasons for why intimacy is lacking. It can be a good starting place to start discussing issues in your marriage. For example, bills, jobs, kids, parents, commitments, and lack of time commonly lead to a decrease in intimacy. However, you will never know for sure what the problem is unless you talk about it. Without asking directly, you will only be guessing about the problem. Life is full of distractions and responsibilities. When you are busy with kids, a job, commitments, and other responsibilities, you may not have time to focus on your marriage. This can lead to a decrease in intimacy. Your marriage should be an important part of your life, not something you push to the side. You should make your marriage an important aspect of your life every day.  This means you should consciously choose to work on your marriage and relationship every day. You may need to give up some commitments or push some things to another day so you can make your marriage an important part of your life. For example, you may order takeout instead of spending an hour in the kitchen cooking a meal, you may tell your children to go play alone for half an hour, or you may decide to not check your work email at home so you can use that time to spend time with your spouse. Instead of watching television for two hours, you may take a bath with your spouse, sit on the porch and talk, play a game together, or do a shared activity. Sometimes, people lose touch with their spouse when they have kids because all their attention goes to their kids. Part of having a healthy family and raising kids is a healthy marriage. You can take some of the time...

Determining whether the property owner is at fault for your slip and fall is an individual determination that will not rest on the same evidence in every case. Generally, the court will look at:  Whether the property owner acted carefully so that slipping or tripping was not likely to happen Whether you caused your own fall by not seeing the condition or hazard that caused the fall when you should have seen it. Whether the property owner knew about the “dangerous condition” that caused your slip and fall either by causing it or negligently failing to fix it Whether the “dangerous condition” existed for a length of time where the property owner had reasonable time to fix it If you fall at a business, you must prove that the owner of the property or an employee of the business caused the unsafe condition, did nothing about it despite knowledge of the condition, or should have reasonably known of the dangerous surface.   Proving that the owner or employee “should have known” about the dangerous condition is difficult because the judge or jury deciding your case will decide. The question that the judge or jury will ask is whether or not a reasonable (average or normal) person would have discovered the dangerous condition fixed it upon discovery. If you slipped or fell at a residence, the landlord or owner may be held liable if you show that the person had control over the dangerous condition, repairing the dangerous condition would not have been unreasonably expensive or difficult, that a serious injury was the foreseeable consequence of the condition, and that the owner or landlord's failure to take reasonable steps to avoid an accident caused your slip and fall injury. If you believe that the owner of the premises where you fell caused your injury, write down what happened right after the accident while it’s still fresh in your mind. This information should include any visible defects in the surface where you fell, whether warning signs were present, and any contributing weather conditions. Visible defects...

Deterring foxes is a game of percentages. Each step you take will greatly reduce the number of infiltrators, but there's no magic bullet that stops every one. Regular upkeep and planning will give foxes less reason to approach in the first place, an important first step:  Clear all food scraps and enclose compost. Cover standing water at night to prevent drinking. Stop using fertilizers made from blood, bone, or fish. Gather excess fruit and vegetables instead of leaving it on the plant. Keep shoes and other small objects inside. Foxes like to use these as playthings. Check first to make sure there are no animals already living there. Walling them in to die may be illegal, and could attract scavengers. Most commercial repellents are scent-based, which confuses the fox and prevents it marking your land as its own territory. If you can't find a fox repellent, look for one targeted at dogs. You may need to try a few repellents before you find one that works on your foxes. Check the ingredient list to make sure the second one you buy is actually different:  Aluminum ammonium sulphate — a scent-based repellent Methyl nonyl ketone — a different scent Capsicum (pepper spray) — extra-spicy taste. Typically less effective, as the fox has to eat it. Repellent usually can't discourage a fox when it's already next to the hen house or your prize vegetables. Spray it in the following locations instead, or mix with sand and sawdust and sprinkle it:  Apply directly to scat, without removing it. Fox leave scat in the open to mark territory, and may return to the same spot if it is cleared. (If children play in the area, apply fox scat disinfectant as well to protect them from diseases.) Apply to soil above buried food, compost, or deceased pets. Apply to suspected entry points onto your land, or along the tops of walls and fences. A fox that has an unpleasant experience eating something in your yard may not want to visit again. Try leaving out food scraps covered in hot sauce or bittering agents. You may use human urine, or...

Detox supplements can be effective at minimizing symptoms of withdrawal and help with the process of detoxing.  Calm Support is an opiate withdrawal formula made from all-natural substances. It has a high rate of easing withdrawal symptoms for many people and can be ordered online.  DL-Phenylalanine is another supplement, available at drug stores and online, that can help with detox symptoms.  As always, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before trying any new medications. Make sure supplements won't react poorly with any existing medications you're taking and won't adversely affect any of your current health problems. As support is so important in the recovery process, finding a support group in your area can help greatly with the recovery process.  Narcotics Anonymous is a national organization that provides support for people recovering from addiction. You can browse their website to find support groups in your area. They also provide support groups for friends and family of addicts, if anyone you know is struggling with your issues.  If you can't find a support group close by, there are many of online forums where you can talk to other people detoxing from Suboxone; however, be careful. Never rely on information from an online forum for medical advice. Addiction is usually driven by underlying psychological issues. If you're in the detox process, see a therapist.  Your insurance provider should have a list of psychiatrists and clinics who take your plan on their website. You can also call and ask if you're confused about coverage. If you're a student, many colleges and universities offer free counseling on campus. If you're on a budget, most big cities have therapy clinics that offer free and reduced counseling to people in need.

Developing a creative, original title is a fantastic opportunity to hook your reader into wanting to read more of your paper before they even get to the introduction. A good title will act as a "preview" for what your paper will be about. Many titles for academic papers come in two parts, separated by a colon. The first part is often a catchy hook that involves a pun on your topic or an impactful quote, and the second part is usually a sentence that sums up or provides details about your argument. Your thesis statement will be a concise idea that sums up your view on the issue. The thesis usually appears at the end of the introduction paragraph. Having this idea in mind early on in the reading process will help guide your reader through the rest of the paper.  A good thesis statement is concise and clear. It tells the reader what the point of the paper is and why it's important. The thesis must make a claim of some sort. This can be a claim of value (describing the worth of how we view a certain thing), a claim of definition (arguing that the way we define a term or idea needs to be altered in some way), a claim of cause and effect (claiming that one event or thing caused another event or thing), or a claim about policy solutions (arguing that the way we do things needs to be changed for some reason). Here is an example of a strong thesis statement: Excessive meat consumption in America is the leading cause of pollution today, and, thus, is a significant influence on global warming. This thesis makes a claim (specifically a cause and effect claim) about a debatable topic with a narrow enough focus to create an interesting, manageable argumentative essay. Here is an example of a weak thesis statement: Pollution is a problem in the world today. This is not a debatable issue; few people would argue that pollution is not a problem. The topic is also too broad. You can't write a paper on every single aspect of pollution. This format is constricting and limits the shape your ideas can take to being contained in...

Developing breasts during puberty should be an exciting time for you, but since so much is going on with your body, you might be a little scared, and that’s okay.  Once your “buds” start to get larger, and possibly pointier, it’s probably time to get your first bra.  But the good thing is, there are a lot of different types of bras to choose from.  The most important thing about a bra - at any stage in your life - is that it fits properly and is comfortable.  A bra is suppose to help give you support and help protect your breasts, they are also great at covering up your breasts and giving your upper body a nice shape that looks good under your clothes. Shopping for a bra - at any age - can be a combination of fun and frustration.  Bras, like shoes, are made to standard sizes, but those sizes can differ between manufacturers.  Therefore, like shopping for shoes, it may take a couple of tries before you find the bra that’s perfect for you. While it is possible to measure yourself for a bra at home, it may be a good idea to go to a lingerie or department store if this is your first bra, or if this is the first time you’ve had a proper bra fitting done.  When you arrive at the store, tell the sales associate you want to be fitted for a bra.  They’ll take you into the change room and measure you in two spots - around your torso, just below your breasts and around the thickest part of your breasts.  The first measurement is the “band” measurement and the second is the “cup” measurement.  The measurement taken around your torso or chest, just below your breasts, determines the number portion of a bra size (i.e. 32, 34, 36, etc.). The measurement take over the top of your breasts determines the letter portion of a bra size (i.e. A, B, C, etc.), also known as cup size. Once you’ve been measured for a bra size, the sales person will start to bring you a selection of options to try on.  For larger breasted women, the bra size determined during measurement is a starting point.  You may need to alter these sizes for...

Developing strategy is built on a foundation of understanding. In order to create a method by which you can succeed in your given area, you must recognize and accept the shortcomings. When you understand what needs work, you can build a strong action plan for overcoming those obstacles. Here's how to spot those shortcomings.  Look for the activities or responsibilities you constantly put off. People often avoid what they feel less competent in. Pay attention to the feedback of those around you. If your partner and your boss give similar constructive criticism, the common ground may be an area of weakness for you. Ask the opinion of a trusted friend. Find someone who will speak candidly with you and ask him what areas you can refine. Look closely at previous setbacks. When you failed at a task in the past, what were the major barriers to your success? The next step toward identifying your given objectives is to assess what resources you have at hand. Do you have everything you need to reach your goals? Are you maximizing these resources by using them most effectively? For example, oftentimes, a leader may have a team of people there to help on a project, but only employ a few of the players. Make use of every person available to you for optimal success. Now is the time to dream. Close your eyes and envision what you would like to see happening in your life over a set period of time. Think about your career. Your relationships. Your finances. Your passions. Your health. Ask yourself the following questions:  What is missing from my life right now that I would like to incorporate? Am I moving towards the person I want to be? Where do I see myself in 5 years? 10 years? 20 years? . Once you have pinpointed a few goals that you would like to move towards, it's time to create an action plan to reach them. In order to ensure that these goals come into fruition, they need to meet certain qualifications. The most effective goals are SMART goals.  S is for specific. Your goals should outline who is involved, what you...

Developing your bucket list should be exciting, so find a place to brainstorm that inspires you! You might pick your favorite park, a cozy corner in your house, or a coffee shop. Your bucket list should contain items that are deeply meaningful to you. Don’t include items simply because you feel you should, or because others would find them impressive. What are your dreams? What brings you fulfillment?  Consider childhood passions that have fallen to the wayside. These can be a good indicator of things you value, but haven’t had the time or resources to pursue. Think about achievements that have given you the greatest confidence, and activities or moments that have brought you the most passion or joy. As you brainstorm within these categories, look for a common theme and use it to guide the creation of your list. For example, if your happiest moments have been helping others, then choose bucket list items, like starting an after-school program for underprivileged kids, that align with that theme. Don’t worry about others judging you, or not achieving certain items. Listen to what you truly want. Are there any goals that you’ve secretly wanted to pursue, but never have because you were embarrassed? Consider including those. If you don’t achieve all of the goals on your list, that’s fine! A bucket list is a guide, not a binding document. If you are feeling stuck, reach out to friends and family. Ask them about the items on their bucket lists and their favorite life experiences. Ask, “What is the coolest thing you have ever done?” or “If you could do one thing before you die that you’ve never done before, what would it be?”

Devote 1 section to the products you buy every month and another section to the products you buy every 3 or more months. Usually, the best brand loyalty you have, the more money you will save. If you are on auto-pilot when you go to the store, you may not know what the going rate is for a name-brand and discount-brand package of toilet paper, a jar of pasta sauce or bag of chicken breasts. To get a deal, you must be able to recognize a deal. You will be searching for coupons by store as well as a by-product. Add some stores that you think might be too expensive, in case they give extremely valuable coupons. Small expandable folders are a great way to sort by expiration date. Get a folder that is no larger than 6 x 9 inches (15 by 23cm) so that you don't forget to bring it when you go shopping. Keep a coupon folder for each type of item you want to buy. For example, you can have a coupon folder for grocery shopping that you place in your car and a coupon folder for services, such as oil changes, tax preparations and carpet cleaning that you keep by the computer or phone. Many grocery stores give discounts for bringing your own bag and it's eco-friendly, but you may need to ask for the discount. This is an essential part of online couponing since you can do a good amount of couponing without ever subscribing to a newspaper. A smartphone can also be a helpful tool in modern-day couponing. You can search for an online coupon right in the store, compare prices with those on Amazon using an application called Price Check or send coupons by text message. Double coupons mean that you can double the value of a coupon up to a certain number, and triple coupons mean you can triple it. Look for stores that take and advertise these kinds of coupons. Ask for rain checks. Rain checks allow you to go into the store and get a coupon for the sale price of an item when it is restocked. Some coupons specify "No Rainchecks" so you must get to the store early on in the sale to ensure the coupon will be valid for a purchase. Learn...

Devote a certain number of minutes each day to homework assignments, to studying, to chores, and to extracurriculars. Writing down how you’ll spend your time at the start of each week will help you adjust to unanticipated circumstances without impacting all of your other responsibilities.  When planning your weekly activities, start with your homework, studying and household chores. Plan extracurricular and recreational activities around your core responsibilities. When you are approaching test time, increase your study time enough to do well on your tests. Restrict the time spent in front of the television or browsing on your smartphone to no more than two hours per night to leave room for your homework, studying, and extracurricular activities. Television and social media can be very entertaining – and very distracting, so keep it to a minimum. It may be helpful to designate specific times to watch television or surf the web in your planner. Visualizing this limited block of time may help keep you focused. This way, you have more time to hang out with friends and participate in extracurricular activities on the weekend. You’ll also enjoy yourself way more if you don’t have assignments hanging over your head. Your high school years shouldn’t just be about your schoolwork. If you’re stressing about schoolwork, you’re not enjoying yourself. So get your work out of the way early, then go have fun! Unless Dad says so, there’s no hard and fast rule that your math homework has to be done between 4:00pm and 4:30pm. Ask your friends when they have free time and schedule your free time to coincide with theirs. Make sure you leave enough time to study though! Your friends are probably going through a similar scheduling process. Lock in some time for you all to hang out so you don’t miss out!

Devote time to taking inventory of your life. Determine if your feelings towards this guy are genuine or a means of distraction. Ask yourself hard questions and provide yourself with honest answers   Do you find yourself daydreaming about him? Have you engineered ways to “accidentally” bump into him in public or at school? Are all of your friends in relationships and you feel left out? Did your crush develop at a convenient time, like just before a dance or a month before Valentine’s Day? While you determine whether or not you like a guy, keep a daily journal. Write about your interactions with him. Describe how you feel when you see him. Note if those feelings carry you through the rest of your day or dissipate shortly after you part ways. Jot down any daydreams; keep track of any hopes you have for a future with him. At the end of each week, re-read your journal entries to evaluate your feelings. Turn to your best friend—the person who knows you the best—for advice. Discuss your feelings with your best friend. Disclose why you are unsure if you like this guy. After you have talked, listen. Allow your best friend to provide you with feedback. Your best friend’s response may upset you, challenge you, or confirm how you truly feel. Take time to process their feedback.

Diabetes affects the way that blood sugar (glucose) is processed in your body. An essential energy source, glucose is present in the bloodstream after digesting food. Insulin, normally produced by the pancreas, assists the glucose out of the blood and distributes it to the liver cells, muscles, and fat, where it is turned into usable energy for the body. Diabetes is identified as Type 1, Type 2, and Gestational Diabetes.   Type 1 diabetes: This condition involves destruction of more than 90 percent of the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas, causing the pancreas to cease making insulin or to make very little. Type 1 diabetes tends to occur prior to the age of 30 and it may involve environmental factors and genetic predisposition.   Type 2 diabetes: While the pancreas continues to produce insulin, or even higher levels of insulin, the body develops a resistance to the insulin, causing the insulin to not be used properly for the body's needs and blood sugar levels remain consistently too high. While this type of diabetes can occur in children and adolescents, it usually begins in people over 30 and becomes more common as people age. Being overweight is a major risk factor for developing type 2 diabetes.  Gestational diabetes: This type of diabetes develops in some women during pregnancy. Left undiagnosed and/or untreated, serious side effects can injure the mother and affect the unborn child. Having gestational diabetes that resolves after delivery increases your chances of developing Type 2 Diabetes at some point of your life. Understanding how diabetes can disrupt your life can help motivate you to make the necessary lifestyle and diet changes to prevent the disease. Some of the complications from Type 2 Diabetes can be quite severe.  Possible complications include:  Lowered blood supply to the skin and nerves Fatty substances and blood clots clogging blood vessels (called Atherosclerosis)  Heart failure, heart attack, or stroke Damage to the eyes, which may cause permanently poor vision Renal (kidney)...

Diabetes is a disease in which your blood glucose (sugar) levels are too high (hyperglycemia) due to a lack of insulin or a tissue insensitivity to it. In general terms, type 1 diabetes is more serious because your body (pancreas) doesn't make any insulin, whereas with the type 2 variety your body doesn't make or use insulin efficiently..  Both forms can be fatal if not treated.  All type 1 diabetics need insulin shots on a daily basis, whereas a large proportion of type 2 diabetics can manage their condition with special diets, weight loss and exercise. Type 2 diabetes is much more common and is linked to obesity, which causes tissues of the body to be less sensitive to the effects of insulin — essentially ignoring its impact. Insulin can't be taken by mouth (orally) in order to lower blood glucose levels because stomach enzymes interfere with its action. People with type 2 diabetes tend to be overweight and develop their symptoms slowly, whereas type 1 diabetics experience symptoms quickly and they tend to be more severe. The most common symptoms of type 1 diabetes include: increased thirst, frequent urination, extreme hunger, unexplained weight loss, sweet smelling breath (due to ketone breakdown), severe fatigue, irritability, blurred vision, slow-healing sores and frequent infections.  Type 1 diabetes can develop at any age, although it usually appears during childhood or adolescence. Diabetic kids are usually very thin, gaunt and tired looking. Type 2 diabetes can develop at any age, although it's most common in people older than 40 who are obese. Without insulin treatment, diabetes can progress and lead to nerve damage (neuropathy), heart disease, kidney damage, blindness, numbness in limbs and various skin conditions. Having diabetes and needing to inject insulin on a daily basis is sometimes like walking on a tightrope. Injecting too much insulin can lead to hypoglycemia due to having too much glucose removed from your bloodstream. On the other hand, not injecting enough promotes hyperglycemia as too...

Diabetes is the most common cause of chronic numbness in the feet and toes. It causes numbness by both damaging the nerves and by causing poor circulation to your feet. Numbness is often one of the first symptoms of diabetes, so you should talk to your doctor and get tested right away if you have regular numbness that does not have another obvious cause.  Numbness can be extremely serious for people with diabetes because it may cause them not to feel pain in the feet caused by things like heat, punctures, or blisters. Decreased circulation also means that the person's feet will heal much slower, so infection is a serious concern. For this reason it is very important that you take especially good care of your feet if you have diabetes. Keeping your blood glucose levels in check is the best way to prevent circulation issues and neuropathy, both of which can cause numbness, if you have diabetes. Develop a plan with your doctor that works for you.  Check your blood sugar regularly with a blood glucose meter and get your A1C levels tested a few times each year. Although numbness in your feet and other symptoms of diabetes may make it difficult to exercise, do you best to stay active. Aim for 30 minutes of exercise each day, whether it is going to the gym or walking up and down the stairs at home. Eat a healthy, balanced diet including fruits, vegetables, whole grains, beans, fish, and low-fat dairy. Do your best to avoid foods that trigger blood sugar spikes, such as cookies and soda. Take all of your prescribed medications, including insulin, regularly. Smoking can worsen the symptoms of your diabetes, so ask your doctor for help quitting. . Extra pounds and obesity can contribute to numbness in your feet and toes, so ask your doctor for tips on healthy weight loss to help alleviate some of your symptoms. Losing weight may also help you lower your blood pressure, which may also help reduce numbness. If losing weight is not enough to get your blood pressure under control, consider talking to your doctor about...

Diabetics have higher levels of sugar and glucose in their blood and vaginal secretions. This is an ideal environment for abundant growth of yeast cells, which normally cause fungal infections. As a result, your child may suffer from recurrent fungal skin infections.  Notice if your child seems to be itchy in the genital area. For girls, you may notice that they have repeated vaginal yeast infections, characterized by genital itching and discomfort, with mild white to yellowish foul-smelling discharge.  Another type of fungal infection that can be a result of the immune-compromising feature of juvenile diabetes is athlete's foot, which causes white discharge and peeling of the skin in the webs of the toes and soles of the feet.  Boys, especially if they are uncircumcised, may also develop a fungal/yeast infection around the tip of the penis. The reflex that enables the body to fight against infections under normal circumstances is hampered by diabetes, as it causes immunological dysfunction. Increased glucose in the blood additionally causes unwelcome bacterial growth, often resulting in frequent bacterial skin infections such as boils or abscesses, carbuncles, and ulcerations. Another aspect of recurrent skin infections is the slow healing of wounds. Even small cuts, scratches or wounds from minor trauma take an abnormally long time to heal. Be on the lookout for anything that doesn't fix itself up as usual. Vitiligo is an auto-immune disorder, leading to reduced levels of the skin pigment melanin. Melanin is the pigment that gives human hair, skin, and eyes their color. With the occurrence of type 1 diabetes, the body develops auto-antibodies that destroy melanin. This results in white patches on the skin. Although it occurs much later in the course of type 1 diabetes and is not very common, it is better to rule out diabetes if your child develops such white patches. These symptoms can accompany diabetes as it progresses. If you notice your child vomiting or overly deep breathing, this is a dangerous sign...

Diabetics use insulin to help decrease blood sugar levels.  Injecting insulin will only decrease blood sugar levels more, increasing the severity of the hypoglycemic episode. This is very dangerous. What you need are simple carbohydrates, as stated above.  Complex carbohydrates are slow-acting and will not provide immediate glucose as it takes more time to be digested. You need to make sure that blood sugar is raised quickly in order to avoid further complications. Providing food or drink will place the person at a greater risk of choking due to their inability to swallow. If the person has fainted, they need immediate medical attention, and you should get them to the care of the closest medical provider.

Diagnosing vision loss is done by performing a series of tests called a comprehensive eye exam. There are several components to this test.  A visual acuity test is a done to determine the sharpness of your vision. It is done by standing in front an eye chart with several lines of the alphabet. Each line has different sized letters. The largest letters on top and the smallest on the bottom. This examination will test your near vision by determining the smallest line you can read comfortably without strain. Screening for hereditary color blindness is part of the exam as well. Perform a cover test. This test will determine how well your eyes work together. The doctor will have you focus on a small object with one eye, and cover the other one. The purpose of doing this allows the doctor to determine if the uncovered eye has to re-focus to see the object. If the eye does have to re-focus to see the object, this could indicate extreme eye strain which would cause a “lazy eye”. Examine the health of your eyes. To determine the health of your eye, your doctor will perform a slit light test.  Your chin will be placed in a chin rest that is connected to a slit light. This test is used to examine the front part of the eye, (cornea, lids, and iris) as well as the inside of the eye (retina, optic nerves). Glaucoma is an increase in pressure inside the eye (due to increased amounts of fluid) that can lead to blindness. Testing for glaucoma is done by blowing a small burst of air into the eyes and measuring the pressure. Diagnosing glaucoma is very important as it helps you get the right treatment at the right time. It is very common to have your eyes dilated during an eye exam. Dilating the eyes involves placing medicated eye drops in the eye with the purpose of dilating (widening) the pupils. This is done to look for diabetes, high blood pressure, macular degeneration, and glaucoma.  Dilating the eyes usually last a few hours. Bring a pair of shades after the exam, as bright sunlight could be harmful to dilated pupils....

Diagnosis is by visual examination. A sigmoidoscopy must always follow the visual examination to rule out Crohn's disease, cancer, and other serious conditions. However, to know the ins and outs of your case, your doctor may conduct 1 or more of the following tests, too:   Computerized Tomography (CT scan). Especially in patients with Crohn’s disease, a CT scan indicates the inflammatory stage before the possible formation of a fistula, in addition to showing the cavities of abscess to determine if surgical care is needed.  Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). This a helpful method to determine any enteric fistulas by revealing any inflammatory changes or accumulation of fluids in the fistula tube.  Fistulography. This is an X-ray method in which a contrast media is injected at the external site of a fistula to clarify the fistula path and how deep it is through the tissues which will help in choosing the treatment.  Ultrasonography. This combined with physical examination can be used to identify any presence of abscess or fluid accumulation that may reside in the fistula tube.  Cystoscopy. This is useful for the “enterovesical fistula” that connects the intestine with the bladder.  Microbiological tests. To indicate any sign of infection, especially in the presence of abscess, a urine culture may be required in case of colovesical fistulas. The most common treatment of fistulas is surgical care, which is called “fistulotomy." This process will remove the fistula and any pus or fluid gathering in it. Fistulotomy is effective in more than 85% of cases.  In fistulotomy for rectal fistulas, a procedure called endorectal flap will be used. This is where the surrounding healthy tissues get put inside the fistula cavity to ensure the prevention of its blockage by feces in case of a recurrent infection. A seton stitch (passing a cord into the fistula in order to keep it closed during the drainage) is also reported to be used in fistulotomy. This, however, usually takes multiple visits to your doctor until recovery and...

Diagnosis is done during a routine eye exam where the ophthalmologist will use eye drops in order to dilate or enlarge your pupils. In case you are suffering from dry macular degeneration, the ophthalmologist can easily detect the presence of drusen upon inspection. You will also be asked to look at the Amsler grid, which looks like graph paper. It is possible that you have macular degeneration when you see that some of the lines are wavy. To check if you have symptoms, print the Amsler grid test from the Prevent Blindness website and follow these instructions:  Place the reversed chart 24 inches away at eye level. Put your reading glasses on and cover one eye completely with your hand. Focus on the center dot for one minute and repeat steps with the other eye. If any of the lines on the grid appear to be wavy, contact your eye care professional immediately. This method will involve inserting dye into a vein in your arm. The dye is then photographed as it travels to the veins of the retina. It can detect leakages, which can indicate wet macular degeneration. ,  The dye should be seen in the optic nerve about eight to 12 seconds after injection. The dye should be seen in the retinal area about 11 to 18 seconds after injection. This exam will look at the multiple layers of your retina using light waves. The test can assess the thickness of your retina, the anatomy of the retinal layers, and if there is anything abnormal in the retina like fluid, blood or new blood vessels.  The doctor may first dilate your eyes, though OCT can also be performed through an non-dilated pupil. Then you will place your chin on the chin rest to stabilize your head, and refrain from moving. A light beam will be aimed at the eye. Using light waves, the exam can painlessly detect live tissue in a matter of seconds. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is the main chemical that causes the abnormal growth of blood vessels. When this chemical is suppressed through anti-VEGF agents or antiangiogenics, the growth of the blood vessels...

Dial one of the following numbers, depending on who you’d like to reach and what you’d like to say: for Comments, call 202-456-1111 (TTY/TTD 202-456-6213), or to reach the Switchboard, call 202-456-1414 (TTY/TTD Visitor's Office: 202-456-2121).  The Comments line is answered by volunteers with the current administration.  The Switchboard line is answered by White House staff members. When your call is answered, guidelines may be given by a person or automated program. Use your keypad to enter any extensions or information, as directed. Ask to speak to the President or make another request. Though the President cannot likely take your call, you may be directed to someone else who will listen to your thoughts. If you are an expert in some field, and you wish to speak with the President, first contact the Cabinet member who would be responsible for that area. For example, an expert in teaching methods would need to contact the head of the Department of Education. Press end, or hang up the telephone when you have finished giving your message or speaking to a representative.

Dianabol is sometimes accompanied by nausea and other stomach issues, but these can be mitigated by taking the steroid with food. Some users also report feeling fatigued after taking Dianabol on an empty stomach, so taking it at mealtime is also a good way of making sure you have energy for your workout. There’s no particular food you necessarily should eat when taking Dianabol. However, because it’s a quick-acting steroid, you may want to eat a protein-rich meal when you take it so that the drug has proteins to build muscle with. Dianabol is highly estrogenic, which means it can lead to excess levels of estrogen when it gets broken down in the body. Taking aromatase inhibitors prevents the conversion of Dianabol into estrogen and therefore helps keep your body’s estrogen levels normal.  The most common side effect of excessive estrogen levels is gynecomastia, or the growth of breast tissue in men. Other health problems arising from excess estrogen may include depression and infertility. You can buy aromatase inhibitors at any vitamins and supplements store. Be sure to follow the manufacturer’s dosing instructions when taking these supplements. Some men experience a reduction in their bodies’ testosterone levels while taking Dianabol. Taking testosterone supplements will help keep your body’s hormone levels in check while you’re on the steroid.  Lower testosterone levels in men can have a variety of unpleasant symptoms, including hair loss, sexual dysfunction, and difficulty sleeping. Insufficient testosterone can also make it harder for you to build muscles, making it that much more important to take testosterone supplements during your bulking cycle. You can buy testosterone supplements at most pharmacies and any vitamins and supplements store. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to determine what dosage is right for you.

TL;DR in Russian:

Diatomaceous earth (DE) comes in two forms. Most DE sold as a pest control treatment or labeled "food-grade" is safe for home use and not linked to serious health issues. Never use pool grade or industrial grade DE in your home, since these forms can (eventually) cause permanent respiratory problems.  All DE products are actually a mix of the "safe" and "unsafe" types. Food grade DE still has a small amount of "unsafe" DE, and is still dangerous if inhaled in large quantities. DE sold for pest control has to meet specific safety standards and list safe instructions on the label (at least in the US), so this is usually the best choice. Food grade DE may not have a detailed safety label, since it is not intended to be used in pure, dry form, but it is similar to pest-grade DE and the risk of harm is low with the precautions below. Since food-grade DE is meant to be stirred into food and eaten, some people assume it is completely safe. However, the concentrated, dry powder can seriously irritate the lungs, eyes, and skin. Review these safety precautions before you begin:  Always wear a dust mask at minimum, since inhalation is the main danger. A respirator mask is much better, especially if you plan to use DE many times.  Wear gloves, eye protection, long sleeves, and long trousers. Keep children and pets away from the carpet while the diatomaceous earth is there. Consider testing a small area first, following the instructions below. Assuming there are no negative reactions from you our your household members, repeat on the rest of the carpet. Professional pest controls use special dusters to put down a fine, even layer of dust, but these can be hard for consumers to find. You can use a feather duster, paint brush, or flour sifter instead. Spoon (don't pour) the DE onto the dusting tool slowly, to avoid a cloud of dust. Squeeze bottles or bellows are not recommended, since they cause too much drifting.

Используйте диатомит, предназначенный для борьбы с вредителями или для приема внутрь. Следуйте правилам безопасности. Выберите инструмент для нанесения порошка.


Diatomaceous earth is an effective way to kill ladybugs before they can enter your garden. Wear goggles and a face mask, and generously spread the diatomaceous earth around each garden bed. You can also sprinkle diatomaceous earth around the outside of your house to prevent ladybugs getting inside.  Diatomaceous earth is safe for pets and children. However, it will kill other beneficial insects like honeybees. The goggles and face mask are only to prevent the powder being inhaled as it settles. Once it has settled, you can remove your safety gear. Deterring ladybugs from getting into your plants and home may be as simple as doing some gardening! Include plenty of mums in your garden, as these plants repel ladybugs. These protect neighboring plants and also deter ladybugs from entering your home through any doors or windows that are close by. Either plant the mums in the ground or in gardening pots and water them regularly to help them thrive. If the ladybugs in the garden are unmanageable, then an outdoor insecticide is an effective solution. Find an outdoor insecticide at your local gardening center and follow the manufacturer’s directions closely to apply it. Check the label before you begin to make sure that it's safe for any specific plants you may have, pets, and children.  Outdoor insecticides are commonly sold as either dusts, powders, or sprays. Always use gloves, a face mask, and goggles when applying outdoor insecticides.

Dice are super simple, but have a whole load of possibilities for games, some of which have unfortunately fallen out of style. You don't need an elaborate game board or an Xbox to play fun games, and there are plenty of games that don't require complex series of bets to enjoy. Learn a few and mix it up. It's also important to distinguish between playing street craps and playing other kinds of dice games, some of which involve betting and some of which don't. If someone asks if you want to "shoot dice," they could be referring to some other game, though craps is the most likely.

Dictionaries are critical tools for learning any language, and ASL is no exception. A good dictionary will allow you to look up signs you don't understand, as well as give you something to study.  Look for a dictionary with easy-to-understand illustrations and descriptions. Try using an online dictionary, where you can see videos of the signs being produced. A classroom setting will give you multiple people to practice signing with, as well as feedback on your performance.  Many colleges will allow you to take a class without enrolling. Check with your local school to see what programs they might offer. Community programs such as local libraries and recreational centers will often offer ASL classes for those that are interested. While a dictionary will show you how to sign every word or phrase, a study guide will get you signing in a more practical fashion. A study guide will provide more instruction than a dictionary, and will help you learn basic conversations as well as sentence structure. The internet can provide a wealth of information about signing, how to sign, Deaf culture, and more.  There are many sites that contain video tutorials posted by professional ASL instructors. The ASLU is a great resource for new learners. Each entry has a video by professional instructors. Handspeak is another good video resource and online dictionary. YouTube is host to a variety of self-published videos on signing. Just remember that with anything online, anyone can make something regardless of whether or not they actually know what they are doing. Be wary of misinformation and improper techniques. With the advent of smartphones, carrying a dictionary and study guide around with you has never been easier. Both the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store have multiple options to choose from, ranging from free to a few dollars.  Apps can be great for quick references, and some include video along with instructions. There are study guides and dictionaries, so try out a couple until you find ones that work for you. Look...

Did you find out that the domain name you wanted was already taken? Are you wanting to be sure that your domain name is optimal for people to find your website? You'll want to practice a few simple steps to get the name just right, rather that getting stuck and giving up or taking a less than great name. Choose a domain name that sounds current, and not like something out of the 90s or 00s. Avoid using numbers or letters for words (2, 4, U, etc), or other dated language. Choose a name that sounds professional and legitimate. Unless you want to be mistaken for a porn site or a scam, choose a name that sounds professional. For example, don't name your travel website Travel4U.biz and instead go with something like QualityTravel.net. The domain name should be easy to read. Avoid names that are made up of multiple words with the same letter or letters that look the same, such as wikihowworld or wikiliki. On many computers and print media, these will be difficult to read correctly. Shorter domain names are better, as these are easier to read, type, and remember. However, if your website can be easier to remember or stand out more at wikiHow.com, rather than wHow.com, then don't worry about it. If someone is going to learn about your website by word of mouth, you'll want it to be something that's easy to remember. This is why it's best to name it after your business or after yourself (if it's something like a portfolio site). Tie your domain name to your brand rather than your product. This will help people find you more easily and be easier to remember. It can also cut down on the price of your domain. For example, wikiHow.com is better than GoodInfo.com. Maximize SEO (search engine optimization) by taking advantage of Google's tools, like Google Trends and Google Keywords. They can help you find easier searchable or more commonly searched alternatives, as well as provide expected search numbers. Don't name your site in a way that could become a copyright issue. That's a whole nightmare that you don't want to deal...

Did you just open your business? Are you supporting a charity drive around the holiday season? Did you just wrap up a special project? Pitch your story to your local media outlets and see if they're interested in covering you.   Try newspapers, broadcast news, and radio shows. By using multiple media sources, you can reach more potential customers. You can write press releases for almost any event in your business. However, if you send too many press releases that are of little interest, the media may lose interest. It is good to build relationships with as many columnists as possible. Sometimes, they may be looking for stories and may actually reach out to you.  Some newspapers have a columnist who specializes in writing about good deals and new businesses. Try them as the first point of contact. Look for columnists who reach your niche audience - for example, if you run a fishing tackle shop, get in touch with your local newspaper's outdoors columnist. Many newspapers will print special coverage of charity endeavors, particularly during holiday seasons. These charity events are often covered in the local media.  You could host a small charity drive during which you accept canned food or used-good donations to give to your local shelters or assistance organizations. Be sure to contact the newspaper and other media outlets regarding the event and mention that your business is sponsoring it. Display your business logo as prominently as possible without overshadowing the event. You can have signs, banners, or even articles of clothing with your company name and logo. For even better publicity, offer a discount to customers who bring in an item to donate. This will increase revenue for both the charity and your business.

Did you know that appliances and electronics continue sapping electricity as long as they're plugged in, even when their switches are turned off? Making a habit of unplugging these items when they aren't in use saves a lot of energy over time.  Power down your computer and unplug it when you aren't using it. Computers are one of the main culprits when it comes to using a lot of energy in a household, so unplugging them when you're finished checking your email for the night is worth the hassle. Unplug your TVs, radios and sound systems. Leaving these plugged in day in and day out is a waste of electricity and money. Don't forget smaller appliances like coffee makers, toasters, hair dryers and phone chargers. These use small amounts of energy, but it really adds up over time. What appliances do you really need to use on a daily basis? Think about your routine and determine where you might be able to save some energy. In some cases it might mean spending extra time on certain chores, but the reward is saving energy, money, and having the satisfaction that comes with being more self-sufficient. For example:  Dry your laundry on a clothesline outside instead of using the dryer. This saves a lot of energy, and many find the old-fashioned task of hanging clothes on the line to be among the more relaxing of chores. Fill your dishwasher to the brim instead of doing a partially-empty load. You could also wash dishes by hand  using a water conservation method rather than relying on the dishwasher to do the job. Sweep instead of vacuuming. If you have carpets you'll still have to vacuum once in a while, but you can sweep up large crumbs and clots of dirt with a broom in between sessions. Pulling out the vacuum every day uses up a lot of energy. Do all of your baking on the same day of the week. Heating the oven requires a lot of electricity (unless your oven is powered by gas), so it makes sense to heat it once and bake more than one thing, rather than spacing out your baking over the course of the week. Reduce your...

Did you know that appliances that are plugged in keep using energy, even when they're switched off? Even an appliance as small as a coffee pot continues slowly sapping energy every moment it stays plugged in, long after the last cup of coffee has been consumed.  A power strip with a switch makes this easier. Instead of pulling 5 devices out of their sockets, all you have to do is flip a switch. Power down your computer and unplug it at the end of the day. Computers use a lot of energy, and when they stay plugged in you're wasting both energy and money.  Don't leave your TV plugged in all the time. It may seem inconvenient to unplug it when you're finished watching, but the savings are worth the trouble. Unplug your sound system and speakers. These are some of the worst culprits when it comes to sapping extra energy when they aren't in use. Don't forget small appliances such as phone chargers, kitchen appliances, hair dryers, and anything else you've got that runs on electricity. When older appliances were manufactured, companies weren't as concerned with saving electricity. Newer models are designed to conserve energy, reducing your household costs and lowering your carbon footprint. If you have an older refrigerator, electric stove and oven, dishwasher, washer and dryer, or other large appliance, look into getting it replaced.  Look for "Energy Star" ratings on new appliances. These help you assess how much energy the appliance uses. Many energy-conserving appliances are more expensive than those that don't have this feature, but you'll earn the money back over time through electricity savings. If replacing your appliances isn't an option, there are still plenty of ways to change your routine so that you're using as little electricity as possible.  Fill the dishwasher up before running it, rather than running a smaller load. Don't open the oven while it's in use, since you release heat and the oven has to use extra energy to produce more. Don't stand at the refrigerator with the door open trying to decide...

Did you know you only grow when you're asleep? Your body produces human growth hormone (HGH) while you sleep. This hormone helps you develop muscle and actually grow taller. So if you're serious about getting taller, get plenty of sleep.  School-age children should get between 10 and 11 hours of sleep. Teens and those just under 18 should get at least 9 to 10 hours of sleep. Whatever you do, take the time to exercise. Exercise is crucial for your healthy development and general well-being. If you want to grow tall during your teen years especially, get in the habit of exercising your body. All exercise is good, and there is no particular exercise to increase height, but doing things that involve stretching and jumping will help to lengthen your spine.  Try jumping around by playing basketball or skipping. Try stretching out your back and limbs by swimming. There is no specific amount of time you should be doing this for to increase height, but the more the better. It is recommended that people children and adolescents should do an hour of exercise a day to be healthy. To give yourself the best chance of growing taller, try to exceed this amount. Some stretches can help you to release your spine and improve your posture. If you stretch the first thing in the morning and the last thing at night, it can help you to become more upright, and thus make the most of your height. Some of the stretches to try include:  Toe touches. Stand up straight and raise your hands up to the sky, and then reach down to touch your toes. Cobra stretch. Lie on your front with your hands at your sides and then push up on your hands to raise your chest and tilt back your head. Bridge stretch. Lie on your back with your hands at either side of you, then, pressing down on your hands, raise your abdomen off the ground to stretch your back. If you do all of the previous steps, there's a good chance that you've given your body the best chance to grow taller. Not everyone is going to be as tall as a basketball player or a model. Being tall...

Did you like to race bikes with your friends? Were you really into comic books? Did you love to paint or draw? Think about what really got you excited as a kid and what you could spend hours doing. If you rode bikes, try getting a new (adult) bike and exploring your neighborhood. If you loved drawing, take a class at a local community college or art museum. That is, if you loved comic books, try attending a comic book convention (comicon) to find people with similar interests. Maybe you loved board games as a kid. Check out the wide variety of new board games on the market, which offer options in everything from role-playing to cooperative games.

Did you see how the method above converts the whole number into a fraction, then converts back to a mixed number at the end? This method lets you skip some of that so the fraction only involves smaller numbers. . Skip this step if your fraction is not improper. (An improper fraction has a larger number on top than on bottom.)  Example: 11−43{\displaystyle 11-{\frac {4}{3}}}  =11−113{\displaystyle =11-1{\frac {1}{3}}} =10−13{\displaystyle =10-{\frac {1}{3}}} For example, rewrite 5 as 4 + 1, or rewrite 22 as 21 + 1.  10−13{\displaystyle 10-{\frac {1}{3}}} =9+1−13{\displaystyle =9+1-{\frac {1}{3}}} At this point we're using the method above to solve the part of the problem in the form "1 - (fraction)". The other whole number will stay the same for the rest of the problem.  =9+1−13{\displaystyle =9+1-{\frac {1}{3}}} =9+11−13{\displaystyle =9+{\frac {1}{1}}-{\frac {1}{3}}} As described above, multiply the top and bottom of your new fraction so it has the same denominator as the original fraction.  =9+1∗31∗3−13{\displaystyle =9+{\frac {1*3}{1*3}}-{\frac {1}{3}}} =9+33−13{\displaystyle =9+{\frac {3}{3}}-{\frac {1}{3}}} Subtract the numerators to solve the fraction part of the equation.  =9+3−13{\displaystyle =9+{\frac {3-1}{3}}} =9+23{\displaystyle =9+{\frac {2}{3}}} =923{\displaystyle =9{\frac {2}{3}}}

Diet plays a huge role in weight loss. However, if you're only focusing on slow and mindful eating, adding in some physical activity can help support your weight loss.  Most health professionals recommend doing at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity each week.  You can also increase this amount to 300 minutes a week.  You may see increased weight loss with higher amounts of physical activity.  Also include a day or two of strength training where you work each major muscle group.  Resistance training helps round out your workout. Even when you're eating slowly and possibly eating a little less, it's still important to eat an overall well-balanced diet.  This will help support your weight loss.  Eating a well-balanced diet high in lean protein, fruits, vegetables and whole grains in addition to eating slowly can help you lose weight.  Eat appropriate portions of each food group throughout the day.  In addition, choose a wide variety of foods within each food group. Follow appropriate portion sizes as well.  Measure out 3-4 oz of lean protein, 1/2 cup of fruit, 1 cup of vegetables, 2 cups of leafy greens and 1/2 cup of grains. Even small portions of higher calorie foods (like fast food or sweets), most likely will not promote weight loss. These foods pack on calories without really keeping you full. Remember that you're better off eating foods that are nutrient-dense, not calorie-dense.  You do not need to completely avoid these types of foods — especially if they're some of your favorites — but limit them to help lower your overall calorie content. Watch out for high-fat foods like:  fried foods, fast food, fatty cuts of meat and processed meats. Also watch for higher calorie foods with added sugars like:  sweetened beverages, candy, cookies, pastries, ice cream and other desserts.

TL;DR in Russian:

Будьте физически активны. Следите за своей диетой в целом. Ограничьте прием продуктов с высоким содержанием жиров, сахара и калорий.


Dietary treatment for colds should first start with determining whether the cold is caused by wind heat or wind cold. To determine the source of your cold, eat ginger.  If you experience excessive thirst, dry mouth, sore throat, and sweating after eating, then your cold is caused by wind heat. To alleviate this type of cold, eat foods that have cooling properties such as cucumber and watermelon.  In case you are experiencing cold intolerance, the only way to counter that is by eating warm foods like garlic and curry. Do not overeat. Chinese traditional medicine maintains that proper diet can restore balance to the body and boost your immune system. Your emotions play a key role in your overall health.  Traditional Chinese medicine indicates that there are seven types of emotions that must be monitored and reduced, because they are factors that can aggravate an illness. These emotions include: anxiety, anger, fear, fright, overjoy, overthinking, and sadness.  Do a self-check every time you feel a surge of these emotions, because they can harm several organs in the body. You can regulate your emotions by thinking positive, being optimistic, meditating, and listening to calming and soothing music. The type of exercise beneficial to reducing colds is mostly centered on doing slow, rhythmic exercises that require you to be mindful of your breathing. Exercise should focus on incorporating all the parts of the body. A good exercise found in Chinese culture for this type of workout is tai-chi.
